Stab in the Back: Democratic Party member hands Podesta letters to WikiLeaks

15.12.2016

The leak of John Podesta’s correspondences published on the WikiLeaks website was organized by a member of the US Democratic Party. Craig Murray, the former UK Ambassador to Uzbekistan who cooperates with WikiLeaks, has reported this. 

There is no “Russian trace”

Hillary Clinton’s headquarters and other representatives of the American neoliberal elite repeatedly stated earlier that there was a “Russian trace” in the leak of John Podesta’s letters. Craig Murray has denied these reports.

“Neither [of the leaks] came from the Russians. The source had legal access to the information. The documents came from inside leaks, not hacks”, said Murray in an interview with Dailymail.com.

Odd man out

Furthermore, Murray reported that an anonymous source from the Democratic Party gave him these documents in person in Washington. An employee of WikiLeaks said that the source that handed over the documents was motivated by “rejection of corruption inside the Clinton Foundation and the exclusion of Bernie Sanders from the race”.

Hysteria continues

Despite the objective facts and evidence that Russia was not involved in the controversial leak, the liberal and globalist media will continue to push this line. The “Russian threat” is a very convenient way to hide their own failure and the frankly criminal nature of their activity. For example, during the campaign, Hillary Clinton spent a record $1.2 billion dollars. Public and government organizations should closely examine the expenditure and sources of these funds.
