Hi Seema,
I deleted the inflammatory conversation between you and Mona and rrheard. I believe I deleted most of the comments, but if it appears I missed any please let me know.
As I mentioned before, please contact only Rubina Fillion or me regarding comment moderation, as the rest of the editorial team does not moderate the comments.
Best,

This is a noticed behavior by every single cyber security firm.I'm a firm believer in common sense, but no the shoe doesn't fit.The real tragedy in all of this and what should scare people the most is that no one seems to really care about the political corruption.

Again, there's nothing to suggest much sophistication as CrowdStrike suggests. We're talking about simple methods of attack (e.g. phishing). Beyond that, it seems to me that Wikileaks got material that didn't come from Guccifer 2.0.Why create this Guccifer 2.0 persona at all and these silly websites? What is there to gain from that? It feels like a very amateurish operation.↪ Replycraigsummers ↪ JoseDecember 14 2016, 5:52 a.m.Jose"……..Again, no. First, there's no evidence linking FancyBear to the Russian government. That link appears to be a guess……"In fact, Crowdstrike has a lot of experience with Fancy Bear and Cozy Bear (http://www.crowdstrike.com/blog/bears-midst-intrusion- democratic-national-committee/ ): "………CrowdStrike Services Inc., our Incident Response group, was called by the Democratic National Committee (DNC), the formal governing body for the US Democratic Party, to respond to a suspected breach. We deployed our IR team and technology and immediately identified two sophisticated adversaries on the network – COZY BEAR and FANCY BEAR. We've had lots of experience with both of these actors attempting to target our customers in the past and know them well. In fact, our team considers them some of the best adversaries out of all the numerous nation-state, criminal and hacktivist/terrorist groups we encounter on a daily basis. Their tradecraft is superb, operational security second to none and the extensive usage of 'living-off-the-land' techniques enables them to easily bypass many security solutions they encounter. In particular, we identified advanced methods consistent with nation-state level capabilities including deliberate targeting and 'access management' tradecraft – both groups were constantly going back into the environment to change out their implants, modify persistent methods, move to new Command & Control channels and perform other tasks to try to stay ahead of being detected. Both adversaries engage in extensive political and economic espionage for the benefit of the government of the Russian Federation and are believed to be closely linked to the Russian government's powerful and highly capable intelligence services……."There is nothing set in concrete, but the independent identification of Cozy Bear and Fancy Bear strongly implicates the Russian government. Is this really so surprising?↪ ReplyJose ↪ craigsummersDecember 14 2016, 5:21 a.m.Again, no. First, there's no evidence linking FancyBear to the Russian government. That link appears to be a guess. Second, the material Wikileaks released was much more interesting and comprehensive than anything released by Guccifer 2.0 or DCLeaks. It seems quite plausible that it didn't come from Guccifer 2.0. It might have not come from a leak at all. The article admits the source of Wikileaks material is unknown. Third, there are indications that Guccifer 2.0 is fairly naive about covering his tracks.↪ ReplyJose ↪ DanielDecember 14 2016, 5:11 a.m.What are you babbling about exactly?

And please describe what real world "harm" could or has resulted. We'll wait.Reporting political activists to the FBI is a serious matter.Do you think the FBI needs Seema's helping in identifying "political activists" in this country?Moreover, and given the many many many articles posted here by various writers detailing the activities of myriad law enforcement agencies including the FBI and DHS, do you honestly believe that any of the federal ones aren't already aware of your "openly admitted" activities on behalf of Occupy or BLM?You seriously need to get a grip if you think Seema's purported rantings to any federal agency is causing anyone, much less you, any actual "harm" in the real world.Your identity is well known and you don't hide it. Your political viewpoints and affiliations, self-admitted going on years in multiple venues and Twitter, whether as a "political activist" or concerned citizen, are well-known buy any local or federal agency that cares to take an interest in either (and there presumably are and you know that full well in openly holding viewpoints and taking actions on behalf of any organization with which you are ideologically aligned.)So if you believe Seema, some loopy person from India, is telling US law enforcement anything they don't already know in 2016, then I'd suggest you aren't reading The Intercept's journalism for comprehension since its inception.Seriously Mona, allowing yourself, or painting yourself out as being victimized by this particular commenter's ravings or "reports" or "filings" to the SEC, DOJ or FBI is silly.But now I'm starting to think you either enjoy taking the position(s) you are, or you've lost your ability to objectively evaluate the meaning and/or effect of your online opinions and musings, (and those of anyone you interact with on the internet) much less your work in the real world as a "political activist". I mean you, and your family have purportedly dealt with the real deal–the non-loony Israel uber alles adversaries who try and destroy the reputations or lives of anti-Zionists activists like yourself.You think Seema is in that category? Do you think Deray McKesson worries what some loopy goofball in India says to the FBI or any other law enforcement agency in America about him, or on the internet to him? I seriously doubt it. And as far as I can tell he's well aware that his work draws both the attention and documentation of certain law enforcement agencies in America. Probably multiple agencies federal, state and local.Now we can all agitate and organize for that to change (i.e. stop US law enforcement agencies from have the (un)lawful ability to build and maintain files strictly on the basis of an Americans "political activities", which most activists and the lawyers who support them have been doing for decades–without much apparent success), or we can get on without and face that reality with courage. Directly.If you are honestly worried about what's in your FBI file, or whether the FBI is documenting the loony ravings of some woman in India about you, as a former lawyer, make an FOIA request or bring a pro se suit to obtain your file.Short of that you're whining into the wind by legitimizing her ravings by treating them as serious.

You forgot "radical leftist" though, which really detracts from the overall tenor of your comment.And why exactly do you have "credibility" to opine on Mr. Murray's "credibility" in the arenas of Russian hackers and human rights activism?<blockquoteIf I had a blog, there would be nothing at the top claiming I am a "human rights activist". I'm not. I post at the Intercept, Guardian and elsewhere because I am a political hack.So your opinion is that you are "political hack" and Craig Murray is a "political hack" as well.Does that mean that you share this same bio of life's work and achievements:Murray had a number of overseas postings with the Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) to Africa and to Europe. In London, he was appointed to the FCO's Southern European Department, as Cyprus desk officer, and later became head of the Maritime Section. In August 1991 he worked in the Embargo Surveillance Centre as the head of the FCO section. This job entailed monitoring the Iraqi government's attempts at smuggling weapons and circumventing sanctions. His group gave daily reports to Margaret Thatcher and John Major.[snip]Murray was appointed as the British ambassador to Uzbekistan in 2002, at the age of 43, . . . .[snip]The FCO exonerated him of all 18 charges in January 2004 after a four-month investigation but reprimanded him for speaking about them.[snip]In recognition of his campaigning work on torture and human rights he was awarded the Sam Adams Award for Integrity in Intelligence in January 2006.[53] In November 2006, he was awarded the Premio Alta Qualità della Città di Bologna.[54] Murray turned down three honours from the Queen as titles are "not his thing".Say what you want about the Murray's private life, but every time he's been threatened with a lawsuit, the plaintiffs have all given up trying to advance his/her/their claims against him. It appears he's quite confident, and can prove any allegations he makes, particularly of the type of allegations he made against the Uzbekistan government, its oligarchs, and various UK and US officials or agencies on the subject of torture.Now of course someone like you might refer to someone who put their professional livelihood and career on the line to actually speak out, or speak truth to power, on the topic of human rights violations and/or complicity in same by his own government, to be a "political hack". But that's because you are about as far from a defender of "human rights" or willing to speak truth to power as just about anybody who has ever posted in these threads. In fact, quite the opposite, you are a defender of human rights abuses and their abusers.So I guess we can all judge for ourselves who is closer to being a "human rights activist" in the world and who isn't, and who is a "political hack" and who isn't. IMHO, Craig Murray is the former based on his life and work, whereas you are the latter based on, well, the apparent fact that you comment on the internet about shit until recently you didn't even understand how to link to (unlike Craig Murray).↪ ReplyWolf J.

Maybe she will stop hounding me.↪ Replybarabbas ↪ rrheardDecember 13 2016, 10:08 a.m.see what i mean?the plan B has to be prescribed and in place prior to events that would take America into a darker place.Call the convention.

I meant 'there's a nice knock-down argument for you!'?""But 'glory' doesn't mean 'a nice knock-down argument'," Alice objected."When I use a word," Humpty Dumpty said, in rather a scornful tone, "it means just what I choose it to mean—neither more nor less.""The question is," said Alice, "whether you can make words mean so many different things.""The question is," said Humpty Dumpty, "which is to be master—that's all."Seema, hillfarmer, quite a few others.↪ Reply-Mona- ↪ Seema Sapra @SeemaSapraLawDecember 13 2016, 9:14 a.m.And yet, you offer no definition of "fake news." It has no ascertainable meaning distinct from other perfectly conventional terms, e.g., "propaganda." None. And you cannot and have not given one.Assertions do not become fact via repetition, so this that you keep spewing remains meaningless and undemonstrated: "The Russian hacking story is fake news."↪ Reply-Mona-December 13 2016, 9:08 a.m.Lee Fang pointed out on Twitter that when US officials discovered Chinese state-sponsored hacking into the U.S., they named names & issued an indictment.↪ ReplyBill BucoloDecember 13 2016, 9:04 a.m.Glenn, or somebody… I wish you'd explain how leaks should work in modern news media. Is it better not to say anything even though the info is highly relevant and individuals with the info are willing to share anonymously. But if the story is vital and evidence is presented, couldn't it compromise intel gathering ability and possibly put lives at risk?What should news provider do?And while thinking of evidence, where's the evidence that the WikiLeaks disclosures about the DNC and Clinton weren't partly ginned up before they were given to WikiLeaks?L↪ ReplyCommunete ↪ thomas paineDecember 13 2016, 8:56 a.m.You'd have to get vocabularies first.

When a sufficient number of delusional leftists achieve a uniform hallucination that blames Hillary Clinton's defeat on someone other than Hillary Clinton, the shared hallucination is then deemed a "fact." The fact is this is just another Clinton OP gone belly up!↪ ReplySeema Sapra @SeemaSapraLawDecember 13 2016, 8:04 a.m.All we have is a WaPo story telling us what some unknown people said to them. Why should we believe WaPo?Unless the CIA or the White House issues an official statement, the WaPo story is fake news. It cannot even be called government propaganda. As the US Government has not issued a proper statement or any statement claiming Russian hacking.The "news" of the alleged Russia hacking is properly described as fake news and there is a coup in the USA.It is fake news because it is full of false, discredited, and discreditable statements and claims based upon alleged anonymous sources whose credibility is un-established as no one knows who they are or what their agenda is. The story is also fake news as it has an agenda to further a coup by certain CIA factions against the President Elect.Mona the paid and obsessive troll who crap floods threads with vapid and disruptive comments to prevent any hard-hitting discussion here has this to say about fake news."First, as Greenwald and many other reasonable others have observed, there is no definition of "fake news."and"No one has offered a sensible explanation of what this new thing — "fake news" — supposedly is."These statements expose Mona and her complete lack of intelligence like nothing else. She merely touts talking points fed to her as a troll.As most of us know – Fake news is simply fake news. Its been around for ever. We don't need a new definition/ explanation of this alleged "new thing" fake news. There is nothing new about fake news. Fake news is news that is fake.The Russian hacking story is fake news. Until the US Government makes this claim officially.↪ ReplyBaldur DascheDecember 13 2016, 8:00 a.m.http://www.esquire.com/news-politics/a49902/the-russian- emigre-leading-the-fight-to- protect-america/ ↪ ReplyBaldur DascheDecember 13 2016, 7:57 a.m.There is only one 'source' behind all the election hacking hulabaloo,it's Crowd Strike; America's premium cyber attack specialists. The rest of it is repeating the story to develop credibility.They been in on all the biggies if not preventing very much they are johnnies on the spot for applying their patented software and finding out f there is anybody on your network who shouldn't be on your network. They claim not only to find the ratholes in software and design where the rodents crept in . the claim to be able to tell the network owners where the rodents crapped and, creeping back out, where they took their looted files.These were the yobbos who tagged the Norks for splurging Sony prawduct all over the internet or free. They helped the Germans find out what was wrong with the Bundestag site – it had been hacked!. They pegged the Russians mooching around the servers of some of Americas top enterprises and they've identified the same family of 'bears' fouling the DNC server. In fact they've even traced them back to the identical same server in Russia – the same one they used for their 2015 campaign. Imagine that: a 'cutting-edge' highly technical and sophisticated spy agency that doesn't know spot one about internet anonymity! It's good that these 'spy agencies' make it so easy from the bozos at Crowd Strike. They are so busy chasing them down they just have to be worth every dollar they charge.Too bad they can't prevent anything. Yet – maybe just a few more millions for the breakthrough?↪ ReplyMaisie ↪ CommuneteDecember 13 2016, 7:54 a.m.Dude, I think we're done here. I showed you by his own words that Mussolini was no socialist after he initiated what he called fascism, and really that was the point I was making in response to your claim (that he was still a socialist). You don't have to be pissy about it.But continue to talk to yourself if you want to. After all, you're the only one who speaks your language.↪ ReplyQuintin ChisolmDecember 13 2016, 7:50 a.m.Then, there's this....
