Holy ***. The ISIS have harnessed the power of Truckzilla??

That was actually attributed to Al Qaeda. You know, the cave dwellers that brought down the towers with the power of airplanes, jet fuel, directed energy weapons, aliens, high explosives, telekinesis, etc.

Bush and Obama are telling America 9/11 was done by cave dwellers.

Yeah, because cave dwellers aren't capable of mass destruction.



Crap, how'd that get there? Just ignore that and stare at Alex Jones for a while.

Of course they do when the world's strongest super power led by two warmongering party's finances them and arms them with the weapons to sow chaos in the middle east you better believe it's US taxpayer money hard at work without the Citizens knowledge or consent.

On the issue with the DNC email hack:

After all the guff Clinton had on her email security and private server, one would think that the DNC would make it impossible for anyone to hack into their server....

I mean, if you show the weakness of an email server for a party who's prime candidate took federal top secret information and placed it on an unsecured email server, it's not going to help your candidate at all....

But hey, as long as she didn't commit any crime*, that's all that matters.

Footnote: Crime in this case meaning that the federal government isn't going to prosecute based by her political affiliation, not because of the crime that was actually committed. If a Republican did the exact same thing as Clinton did, they would have already been tried for treason

Okay, look, I can get Aliens may have been jealous of our quaint-yet-elegant NY skyline and wanted to get rid of it. And I can get that maybe they harnessed the principles of Nikolai Tesla. But telekinesis?

C'mon, man.

Also the state of idiotic, "no fun allowed" soccer moms.

What does that have to do with anything? (I don't see a connection. Sorry?)

The problem with the whole "clinton is the lesser of two evils" strategy is that sooner or later it may dawn on people that the only thing trump is actually guilty of is saying outlandish things that some people don't like.

hillary clinton makes a solemn commitment each and every day to live her life as a walking travesty of justice and a mockery of our legal system. she took bribes from foreign countries as secretary of state to stockpile in the "Clinton Library" aka "The Bill Clinton makes Caligula look like a poser Cocaine and Hookers Memorial Hush Money Slush Fund for Paying off Wayward Women"

then she conspired with wasserman/the dnc to derail bernie's campaign.

^This absolutely.

The latest thing is she is accusing Trump is somehow involved with getting the Russian's to hack into the DNC e-mails.

No matter what she does scandal will follow Hillary.

I'm thankful the information was obtained & shared. The United Nations and all the people of earth could have signed off & given the "go-ahead" to hack into the DNC e-mails for all it matters.

Straight to the point, Americans now have direct proof of what they already suspected. Sanders never had a chance; all the while the DNC maintained otherwise, until proof came to light.

So would you be ok with foreign entities or anyone having into the rnc or is it just the dnc stuff? Personally I'm for all of this stuff being public knowledge anyways on all sides as well as all government emails that are not classified being open to the public... Though I do not laud those that hack into people's accounts....

As for Bernie not having a chance... He didn't even win the popular vote so while the dnc is being all HELP I AM TRAPPED IN 2006 PLEASE SEND A TIME MACHINE/shady about this he didn't have a shot anyways which makes it even more idiotic on their part...

I'd be okay with either way. Corruption is corruption. They could all use a lesson in transparency

I agree

The paranoia can be strong in politics, even with the winners. Look at Nixon, he got involved in all this shady crap right before winning an election in a landslide. It was 100% unnecessary and cost him everything, but apparently it was worth risking everything just for that slight edge.

If it's ok for private enterprises (that is what the RNC/DNC are, they are not government entities) to have to reveal their emails, what's next? Private citizens (aka you and me) have to do the same?

Russia hacking into the DNC = bad.

Just like people hacking into Sony's email system is also = bad. But you don't seem to complain about that, do you?

This is true. However, the hacking thing is not.

I am not okay with Anonymous, either, despite agreeing with them on so many things objectively.

Their methods are not okay and circumvent privacy and the criminal justice system.

That is not okay.

Is there any proof that it was Russia that did the actual hacking? they probably learned all the inside targets from hacking Hilary's email server

This election cycle I'll continue to remind the kids that if you want to get ahead, *** everyone over, acquire enough capital to screw the rules then rip the moral high ground from out under the weak and claim to be the only solution for America's ills. Proceed to divide the country with a meaningless tussle between *** and ***then laugh as they gobble the cowpie up.

It's like the virus announcing it has the cure.

Does it matter?

If we accept anyone hacking into another's server, then we accept them all.

I don't care if it was the RNC, Russia, or even the White House hacking into the DNC email server, hacking a private enterprise and releasing said information is wrong at the very core.

Also, holy crap on a stick, that Israel thread. I mean, page 10 of that thread is going to be the shortest page in the history of FFXIAH.com.

More than half the page was deleted because jimmies were rustled.

*backreads* Some people really need to educate themselves about the meaning of ideologies and study some philosophy instead of spewing demented stuff about their perceived notions.

It's just the go-to scapegoat. It would be either them or China.

NK probably still runs on dial up internet so they have some trouble with that stuff.
