A lengthy blog post from Peter Hitchens throwing cold water on the noise and bluster about Russia.

After he's finished you realize the real investigation should be not into Russia, but the the "Arab Spring" mess in Syria, Libya and so on.

But of course that would implicate Saudi Arabia and the Gulf Arabs, whose money the UK, USA and other money poor deep in debt nations of the world rely on right.

And no doubt, the financial poverty of the West is a big motivator in the Western nations promotion of the Saudi backed Syrian Civil War.

Myself i think there should be a tunnel or above ground/water form of an intercontinental highway between Russia and Alaska.

Would stimulate the economy on both sides and form a more trusting bond. Whats going on is the dejected loser socialists and marxists in America are pissed off Russia abandoned socialism and converted to capitalists for the most part, thats why Russia gets blamed, and by who.
Eradicate the socialist agenda in America, make Russia a global partner.

Pelosi wants an investigation. She’ll get to the bottom of it.

Russia or the former Soviet Union has been hip deep in the 'Middle East' for many decades. Who helped Egypt build the Aswan Dam.?.. And it was Putin playing fast and loose with the UN sanctions of 'Oil for Rotten Food' imposed upon Saddam. Russia/Putin was NOT the least bit pleased with US taking out Saddam, and when Brack Obama initiated his 'Arab Spring' supposedly freeing Egyptians, Russia was concerned... The big insult to Russian interests was when Hillry took out and slaughtered Colonel Q of Libya. She was NOT the least bit diplomatic about her conquest... So Russia saw the direction the 'Middle East' was heading and decided to stop Brack Obama in Syria.

I have yet to fully comprehend exactly what Brack Obama, Hillry Clinton and the two so called Republican boobs lord McCain and Lacy Graham intend to gain.. I see nothing but chaos, and mass destruction. Unfortunately, these people have no credibility in complaining about anything the Russians have done or might be getting ready to do... even though I think there is plenty for sane, civil, lawful people, to be in opposition to Russian practices.

The Russians were in bed with Iran, helping Iran build their 'nuclear' dreams power plant. Now who is shipping boat loads of cash to Iran? None of this makes any logical sense... I wonder what it is we are NOT being told.

I do not believe for one second, the mentality of the Russian leadership, is any different than was under Soviet Communism. Putin has become 'god' of Russia and he rules with an iron fist.

IF Russia had hacked Hillry's bathroom server, they would have kept silent, and owned the bitch.

Thomas Rid has an article in Esquire claiming to definitively prove that the Russians were behind the Dem hack, which is being used by the Left to justify their claims. Just found an article by a fellow named Jeffrey Carr disputing everything that Rid claims, and he provides a lot of insight into the nitty-gritty world of hacking. He shows us the shadow world of the hackers, with the labyrinths and corridors of approach that shield the attackers. These hacks could have been made by anyone. I suspect our own Intel services. If DHS could hack the Republicans in GA, why not NSA hacking the Dems?

Fake news byotch Joy Behar, thinks Russia is still the USSR. She missed Mr Gorbachev tearing down that wall and the Soviet Union falling apart. Thinks Putin will get Trump to put hammer and sickle on the American flag.

Winston Churchill said, “Nations do not have friends. Nations have common interests.” We tend to see Russia as the bad guy because, for business or political reasons, they play the diplomacy game against the US. When the US imposes sanctions for its political ends this creates a potentially profitable business situation for Russia. Either they don’t care what the US’s political aims are or they have their own aims. They sell whatever we won’t and get back much more profit or advantage than if they were just making a business deal in the absence of sanctions.

If the US has decided on regime change in Syria, suddenly Assad is very amenable to everything his Russian supporters want. For their support they get a long term lease on a Mediterranean port and air and army bases from which to project power or counter the US on the world’s chess board.

For the last eight years the Russians have played chess at a very high level while Obama played Tiddlywinks.

Why Russia ..??

That’s easy .. because there is probably no way to prove or dis-prove any accusation re computer stuff.

Russia is the EASY scapegoat.
