Russia: Proud, Patriotic Poverty Returns

https://www.strategypage.com/qnd/russia/articles/20161230.aspx

>>
(Deep into the article)
>>

December 29, 2016: The U.S. government released the proof that Russia was behind the hacking of networks of the Democratic Party in 2016 and the subsequent release of documents showing bad behavior by Democrat politicians and party officials. The U.S. proof consisted of a 13 page NCCIC document that did not deliver. There was a summary and disclaimer page that contained assertions but no proof of Russian involvement. This was followed by nine pages of useful but standard advice on how to protect yourself from the kind of hack (spearfishing) that caused most of the damage. There was a page diagraming the Russian groups believed responsible but not with any evidence that would stand up in court. Finally there were two pages of diagrams and a some computer code showing how the attack was carried but again, no evidence of who did it much less any links to Russia. Worse, the report makes no mention of Wikileaks, which admitted releasing the documents in question and denying that Russia was the source.

(Most of the article is about Russia . . .)
(The article goes on to claim that the Russians ordered
the closing of that Anglo-American school in Russia . . .
However, when I looked it up on the Internet today I
found it had a facebook page which said the school
expected to re-open after New Years on schedule.)

Message from the Director regarding media reports of the closure of the Anglo American School Moscow campus.

You may have heard and seen reports coming through the media stating that the Russian authorities have closed the Anglo American School, Moscow campus. Senior Russian officials have refuted this story.
The school is planning to open as scheduled following the New Year break.

We will keep you updated through e-mails, postings on our website . . . . .

That link is absolutely the BEST analysis of the 'hacking.

THANK YOU, nemo.

Having worked since 1995 as a first-responder to cyber-attacks, including serving 11 years as Chief of the SEC's Office of Internet Enforcement, I whole-heartedly agree with President-elect Trump. His skepticism is not only appropriate and warranted -- it's spot-on.

Official U.S. Statements About Russian Hacking of U.S. Election

Despite countless inflammatory headlines about Russian election hacking, there exist only two official U.S. statements specifically addressing the facts of recent election-related hacking incidents.
....
Both government statements are curt, vague, opaque and miles away from being concrete -- and both also beg far more questions than answers.
....
Under any circumstance, President-elect Donald Trump is quite right to engage in his own de novo review of government intelligence analytics regarding Russian hacking. It is what Americans expect every Commander-in-Chief to do before making major foreign policy decisions and escalating military tensions. In fact, President-elect Trump's approach is not only smart, courageous, logical and scientific -- it is above all else, highly presidential.
