Icon Robert Kiyosaki: Rich Dad's Conspiracy of The Rich - Alex Jones Tv 1/3
And now, for that Friday night bomb, when nuking stocks has a tad too much of a Waddell and Reed 'amateur hour' aftertaste, the only alternative - destroy the entire currency market. If this crash in the DXY (seen below) had happened during regular hours, apparently driven not by the dollar but by DXY component EUR (there was no comparable move in other USD pairs), it would have created a complete market collapse. Luckily it happened an hour after close. Weekend collapse averted. And a quick glance at the other pairs shows that the GBP and CHF were solidly impacted as well.
Wikileaks Hacked By “Very Skilled” Attackers Prior To Iraq Doc Release
Someone is trying to spring a leak in Wikileaks.
As the whistle-blower organization prepared earlier this week for a Saturday press conference that some believe will announce a major release of secret data regarding the Iraq war, a staffer wrote Wednesday on the organization’s twitter feed that its “communications infrastructure is currently under attack,” adding the cryptic message “Project BO move to coms channel S. Activate Reston5.”
A Wikileaks source who asks to remain anonymous now says that the organization’s XMPP server in Amsterdam, used to host its encrypted instant messaging communications, was compromised earlier this week by an unknown attacker, and the chat service had to be relocated to another server in Germany. “The server got attacked, hacked, and the private keys got out,” says the source. “We needed new private keys. Now it’s back online and secure.”
The source added that the attack represented the first breach in Wikileaks’ history, and that “the people who are behind it are very skilled,” declining to comment further on the details of the hack.
Wikileaks’ site has been largely disabled over the last several weeks, displaying only a note that the site is “undergoing scheduled maintenance” and “will be back online as soon as possible.” But the Wikileaks source says that the attack had no relation to the site’s downtime, and that it “should be back up by tomorrow morning.”
If a major leak is in the works, it wouldn’t the first time Wikileaks’ site has suffered technical issues and recovered in time to regain the spotlight. Last June its submissions page ceased to function, but was fixed in time for the release of the so-called “Afghan War Diary” in July.
Earlier this month, another whistle-blower document, Cryptome.org, was hacked and had its files temporarily deleted. But the Wikileaks source argues that “the people who hacked Cryptome were just schoolkids who got the password. There’s no connection between the hack of Cryptome and of Wikileaks.”
Aside from digital sabotage, the site has also faced financial sniping. Wikileaks had one of its accounts frozen by the donation-collecting company Moneybookers, and claims the freeze was a result of the organization being placed on a U.S. government watchlist and an Australian government blacklist.
F0r whatever reason, the organization’s administrator have their guard up. On Tuesday, the site’s twitter feed recommended that followers copy the encrypted “insurance” file that it posted to the site in July.
Stay tuned for more on Wikileaks’ Saturday announcement.
