Snowden Doc Shows NSA Blamed Russia For Hack of Murdered Journalist (thehill.com)
The National Security Agency (NSA) knew that the Russian government hacked the email account of a prominent journalist the year before she was killed in Moscow, documents published by The Intercept show. The 2006 murder of longtime Kremlin critic Anna Politkovskaya -- who was gunned down in the elevator of her apartment complex -- is widely believed to have been a contract killing. Politkovskaya was a noted critic of Russian President Vladimir Putin, and it has long been suspected that the murder was carried out on his orders. From a report: The NSA compiled an internal file on Politkovskaya, which was exposed as part of the Edward Snowden leaks. Much of the document is unclassified and public, except for one top-secret segment: "Russian Federal Intelligence Services (probably FSB) are known to have targeted the webmail account of the murdered Russian journalist Anna Politkovskaya," the passage reads. "On 5 December 2005, RFIS initiated an attack against the account annapolitkovskaia@US Provider1, deploying malicious software which is not available in the public domain. It is not known whether this attack is in any way associated with the death of the journalist."
You Americans are finally getting a taste of your own medicine. I hope Trump fucks you good and hard. You deserve it, after 8 years of Clinton bombing civilians, 8 years of Bush invading countries, and 8 years of Obama droning innocent people and screwing around where you don't belong.
You think Obama is different - he's the exact same as Bush. But you're such idiots you can't see it.
seems Obama wants to stir as much anti Russian sentiment as he can before he joins the trash heap and make it as difficult as possible for Trump. I am very much anti trump but what Obama and Co are doing at the moment is fucking appalling.
