NSA Worlds Most Dangerous Cyber Threat, Not Russia and ChinaBy Kurt Nimmo Last week whistleblower Edward Snowden released a document revealing an arsenal of cyber weapons used by the NSA. On Monday, the hacker group Shadow Brokers announced they are holding an auction of cyber weapons created by the agency. The shadowy group dropped 300MB of stolen data onto the open Web, including live exploits for some of the Webs most crucial network infrastructure, apparently stolen from the NSA in 2013, according to The Verge. Edward Snowden (@Snowden) August 16, 2016 Sam Biddle, writing for The Intercept, breaks it down. According to TechCrunch expert analysis of the data suggested that the NSA and the Equation Group are one and the same. The Equation Group is a group of hackers discovered by Kaspersky Labs and characterized as one of the most sophisticated cyber attack outfits in the world. Ars Technica described the operation as the most advanced we have seen with technical skill and resources that rival the groups that developed Stuxnet and the Flame espionage malware. Flame espionage malware and the Stuxnet virus infected computers in Iran. Flame achieved mathematic breakthroughs that could only have been accomplished by world-class cryptographers, note two of the worlds foremost cryptography experts. Stuxnet is a jointly built American-Israeli cyber weapon. Snowden suggests the raid on the NSAs servers is political: Edward Snowden (@Snowden) August 16, 2016 Edward Snowden (@Snowden) August 16, 2016 The CIA has a long track record of adversely influencing elections, overthrowing democratically elected governments, and sponsoring coups in Italy (1948), Iran (1953), Guatemala (1954), North Vietnam (1954-1958), Hungary (1956), Laos (1957-1973), Haiti (1959), Cuba (1961; the grand failure of the Bay of Pigs revealed the CIAs modus operandi), Dominican Republic (1961), Ecuador (1961), Congo or Zaire (1961), Brazil (1964), Indonesia (1965; a particularly bloody coup resulting in the death of a million people), Greece (1965), Cambodia (1970; meddling here resulted in the rise of the Khmer Rouge, which massacred millions of civilians), Chile (1973), Australia (1975), and dozens of other covert ops, designer wars, and general mayhem and chaos. Now the United States is more sophisticated. It utilizes foundations to do its dirty work influencing elections and overthrowing governments. The foundations include the National Endowment for Democracy (NED), International Republican Institute (IRI), National Democratic Institute (NDI), and Freedom Houseall supported to various degrees by the US Agency for International Development (USAID) at the State Department. Protests and destabilization actions are always planned around an electoral campaign and process, to raise tensions and questions of potential fraud, and to discredit the elections in the case of a loss for the opposition, which is generally the case. The same agencies are always present, funding, training and advising, writes Eva Golinger. The following countries have experienced color revolutions: Portugal, Philippines, Czechoslovakia, Yugoslavia, Georgia, Ukraine, Iraq, Kyrgyzstan, Lebanon, Kuwait, Belarus, Myanmar (formerly Burma), Moldova, Iran, Tunisia, Egypt, China, and Macedonia. The Arab Spring color revolution launched in Syria resulted in a civil war (more precisely a US and Gulf Emirate sponsored proxy war) that has thus far resulted in nearly 500,000 deaths. The latest example is Ukraine where the State Department worked with the Euromaidan movement to overthrow the democratically elected government of Viktor Yanukovych. The US has used the ongoing political and military tensions in that country to put pressure on Russia and heighten the possibility of a catastrophic conflict between the two nations.

China and Russia have already taken full control of internet use, keeping a close eye on every person using the web in those countries. Last year Russia tested a Chinese style wall system. Twitter, Facebook, and Google are censoring us in the west. The next shoe to drop is a cyber false flag to trigger the Kill Switch. Their govts, our govts do the same. China was the model example a pro-SOPA polly used in his defense of its sponsorship. Only difference is a supposed difference of political system on paper. Sure, theyre tyrannical and i dont deny or downplay that, but its still a farcry to claim we are free either!!! I completely agree. I never thought I was free as an American, even as a young kid, only more so historically than a lot of other people. Interesting about the pro-SOPA China defense. I didnt know that. I think we would be stuck with SOPA if it werent for the late great Aaron Swartz. Aaron Schwartz was one of the last GOOD liberals who actually favored free speech. Its become a lost art. Yep, short list of real liberals in the traditional sense. Nader is another.
