Maligning the Messenger

Since the publication by WikiLeaks in July 2016 of some hacked emails from the (USA) Democratic National Committee (DNC) computers, a lot of hullabaloo has been created by the cosy club of Elitist Politicians and the Main Stream Media. The Club has cunningly succeeded in diverting the discourse solely on to the messenger, ignoring the message it carried. They have drafted in some intelligence agencies personnel this time to give credence to their scheme. They allege (of course without any definitive proof) that the messenger (Russia) has interfered in their democratic processes.

The hacked emails reveal, without slightest doubt, that the people who are riding the high horse of democratic values and processes did subvert the basic tenant of democracy. Their avowal of subversion resulted in the resignations of Debbie Wasserman Schulz, Brad Marshall and Amy Dacey.

Truth has no place in their schemes. The massive failure of the Cyber Security Command as well as sixteen other intelligence agencies is ignored. The same DNC files were pilfered by their own hired people which resulted in the notorious Watergate and Nixon's resignation. Their own interferences all over the world including regime changes and hacking of mobile phone of their closest ally Mrs Merkel by them has become simply a history of no significance. Would they ever look in the mirror?
