White House Reveals Big Secret US Operation Against Russia - Ummmm?

American news channel NBC News reported last night that the CIA is putting together a complex and proportionate response to Russia’s cyberwarfare and interference with the US election process. Lester Holt quoted anonymous sources in describing the goals for the attack to be “clandestine” and “embarrassing.”

Wow, the Ruskies will not be expecting that when it happens.

It’s great to hear about a "super-secret group inside the CIA" and "top-secret documents" on broadcast television, isn’t it? It’s reminiscent of a scene from some  secret agent thriller, Jack Reacher or Jason Bourne maybe, about the necessity of making to secret plans for dealing effectively with threats. People with names like Putin, Medvedev and Lavrov must be loving it.

The reality here is White House security advisers want to send a message to Americans rather than the Russia government. Firstly there is a desperate need to reinforce the impression that the Russians have hacked into the electoral process and are manipulating voters into opposing the the current administration.It is a variant on Project Fear, the main strategy of the Remain campaign in the UK's Brexit vote. And we all know how well that strategy worked. So can The White House convince voters that the USA is surrounded by immediate threats and only another Democrat administration can save the country.

The second part is an attempt to repair the perception that President Obama and his team are incompetent, effete wusses who are only interested in matters affecting minorities, particularly gays and Muslims, and lacks the will and fortitude to stand up to a powerful enemt. Assuming all the hacks that have provided Wikileaks, DC Leaks and The Intercept with material throuout the summer  have been Russian cyber attacks meant to influence our elections, they are surprisingly wide ranging in who they benefit.

 The Obama administration has been hacked several of times, the biggest embarrassment being the year-long hack at the Office of Personnel Management, which gave China information on millions of Americans that enabled agents to blackmail or bribe them into espionage, or just ruin them with identity theft. Guccifer, an amateur, seems to have been able to hack The State Departmnt at will.

If the leaking of this anti hacking operation is meant at least in part to give the impression that Obama & Co are finally getting serious about making our adversaries pay for their transgressions it could not be more idiotically inept. Are we expected to believe the Obama Administration is taking a firm line against Russian cyberwarfare when plans to combat cyber attacks are announced, giving America's rivals advance warning so they can be prepared to deal with the defence measures..

Doesn’t the leaking by Obama, supposedly the profoundly intellectual, thoughtful, cautious law professor of any the strategy for humiliating Russia allow Putin, the ignorant macho thug, to get his retaliation in first? And as it has been demonstrated over the years since 2008, hasn't Obama learned from the way Putin has outmanoeuvred him in every confrontation, that Vladimir Putin may indulge himself with a pbit of macho posturing to highlight the effeminacy of his US counterpart but he is certainly not ignorant.

America Is Lost: Rigged election, Rigged Media, Rigged Candidate says Assange
To paraphrase Mark Twain, reports of Julian Assange's death were greatly exaggerated. After his web feed was cut by staff at the Ecuadorian Embassy earlier this week Assange's usual stream of tweets, leaks and posts was stilled. The web, being the web, went mad with conspiracy theories but Wikileaks themselves did not comment on the wilder speculation. Well Julian is back on Hillary's case, and this time it's more personal than ever.

Russia Is Conducting ‘Asymmetric Warfare’ In Syria Says UK Foreign Secretary
As Russian successes stack up in the middle east war against Islamic State guerillas in Syria, and the half hearted efforts of the FUKUS axis (France, UK, USA) look increasingly inept, we suggest that the western allies were never really interested in defeating ISIS, destabilisation of the entire region was their aim, so the thrust of their intervention was to overthrow Assad rather than defeat the terrorists.
