The Russian Ruse

The Russian Ruse by Bill Wilson

The FBI and the Department of Homeland Security have released a joint report saying that the Russians hacked Hillary Clinton's and the Democratic National Committee's email servers in an attempt to influence the US elections. This has resulted in the US president expelling some Russian diplomats.

Many countries, including Russia and China, are trying to hack into US computers for intel. It is the reason why we have security measures, such as encryption and firewalls, for our sensitive information.

The US is hacking other countries' computers, too. It's the normal spy business. What is important here is the information that showed the depth of corruption with Clinton and the Democratic Party.

The information contained in the hacked emails is damning evidence of the unethical, immoral, illegal chicanery practiced as an organized governmental and political crime syndicate by Clinton and the Democratic Party.

The president and Clinton are saying that the Russians hacked the computers and released the information on them to influence the election.

Whoever hacked the computers (as it is still unproven), did America a great favor. First, they showed that Clinton and the Democratic Party were poor stewards of sensitive information and, therefore, too incompetent to hold the office of the Presidency. Second, they revealed the extent of the institutional graft and corruption of Clinton and the DNC.

So here is the twist: The lame duck president is angry at the Russians for allegedly hacking email servers and trying to influence the US elections. The unethical and possible illegal acts of Clinton and the DNC which actually did influence the election, so the president is blaming the Russians for the political loss.

You see, it is a great Russian Ruse--blame the Russians for influencing the elections, when in reality it was the content of the emails that demonstrated Clinton and the Democratic Party did not deserve, or were not qualified, to hold the office.

Neither Clinton, Obama, or the DNC, have disputed the veracity of the content of the emails. They are just angry they were exposed, and that the content of the emails influenced the elections.

The Clintons and the Democratic Party leadership have very little faith that the American people can make up their own minds about an election. That's why they worked with the media to propagandize everyone to think that Clinton could not be beat; that those supporting Donald Trump were deplorable and unredeemable and so on.

If the Russians influenced the election by exposing the truth about Clinton and the DNC, thank you.

It is not, however, the Russians' fault that Clinton lost. It's her own incompetency, arrogance and corruption that caught up with her.

Jeremiah 49:16 says, "Your arrogance has deceived you, and the pride of your heart, O you that dwell in the clefts of the rock, that hold the height of the hill."
