Detrimental Systems blog... December 30 2016
Vienna, Virginia....

A former officer of the ciphers and codes section of the clandestine Market Basket section reported “As soon as I heard that the phrase “”wound my heart with a monotonous languor”” was intercepted in the internal switch code of the power plant, I knew the system had been hacked. “ Although he was prevented from further elucidation on security grounds, he was able to indicate in a positive way that there was hacking in process. Others have stated that the word languor is frequently used by KRG hackers to indicate Kilroy was here.

“Others have stated that the word languor is frequently used by KRG hackers to indicate Kilroy was here.”

I don’t know where you’re getting this, but putting obvious tells into a hacked system isn’t the way its done. Not unless the hackers want the hack detected and foiled.

As someone on this site stated, yesterday. The Post is now a Bezos Blog. It has ceased to be a reputable newspaper.

I’ll go you a bit further: Washington Post is the CIA’s unofficial paper for their official misinformation.

So in closing the ‘hacking story’ is not about hacking anything, it is just a rouse.
*****************************************************
It is definitely a rouse, and repeated often enough, perhaps a brainwashing of the masses, but is the purpose just to detract attention from the content of the emails or is there something more devious afoot? That’s what I’m trying to research a little bit.

LOL. I have already read a bunch of stuff on their lies and participation in all manner of crap - they seem more like the Government Mafia than an Intelligence Agency.

If I was in the Administration, I would take everything they said with a ton of salt grains.

And Carlos Slim owns a big chunk of The New York Times. Fox News parent company is partially owned by Saudis.

This false narrative about Russian’s hacking is getting old. Not sure what their end game is.


... to delegitimize Trump’s election by any means necessary.
