Defiant North Korea Says Can Prove It Is Not Behind Hack "Without Resorting To Torture Like The CIA"
Just hours after the FBI announced that, with absolute certainty, it had determined that North Korea was behind the Sony hack, a "theory" that has become the butt of global jokes, we learned, in a far less prominent release, that according to an internal inquiry, FBI evidence if "often mishandled." According to the NYT, "F.B.I. agents in every region of the country have mishandled, mislabeled and lost evidence, according to a highly critical internal investigation that discovered errors with nearly half the pieces of evidence it reviewed.
The evidence collection and retention system is the backbone of the F.B.I.’s investigative process, and the report said it is beset by problems.
It gets better: according to the report, the F.B.I. was storing more weapons, less money and valuables, and two tons more drugs than its records had indicated. Almost as if the FBI was siphoning off cash, while hoarding guns and blow.
The report’s findings, based on a review of more than 41,000 pieces of evidence in F.B.I. offices around the country, could have consequences for criminal investigations and prosecutions. Lawyers can use even minor record-keeping discrepancies to get evidence thrown out of court, and the F.B.I. was alerting prosecutors around the country on Friday that they may need to disclose the errors to defendants.
A majority of the errors identified were due in large part to human error, attributable to a lack of training and program management oversight,” auditors wrote in the report, which was obtained by The New York Times.
F.B.I. officials on Friday said that they decided on their own to conduct the review after discovering during an internal audit that there might be issues with the record keeping for evidence.
In other words, there was human error, as well as willful "record keeping" lies.
But that's ok, because the FBI has released a YouTube clip proving that North Korea hacked the US subsidiary of a Japanese company in a matter that has escalated to a national security issue. Right? Because the US had doctored photos of Iraq WMDs, and a doctored YouTube clip of Syrians "dead" after an Assad chemical attack.
Well, maybe not. Which perhaps explains why a defiant North Korea not only refuses to take responsibility for the infamous Sony "hack", something which makes little sense for the regime that would love to take full credit for crippling of the evil Imperialist pigs' Christmas movie schedule, but that, as Reuters reports, it wants a joint probe investigation into the incident with the United States.
An unnamed spokesman of the North's foreign ministry said there would be "grave consequences" if Washington refused to agree to the joint probe and continued to accuse Pyongyang, the official KCNA news agency reported on Saturday.
In fact, earlier today, North Korea warned of “serious consequences” if the United States retaliates against it.
As a reminder, on Friday, President Barack Obama blamed North Korea for the devastating cyberattack, which led to the Hollywood studio cancelling "The Interview", a comedy on the fictional assassination of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un.
But the epic punchline, is that even a tiny backwater, dictatorship can now make fun of US "moral high ground" courtesy of the recent CIA torture disclosure. “We have a way to prove that we have nothing to do with the case without resorting to torture, as what the C.I.A. does,” the statement said.
We can't wait to see it. We also can't wait to see America's own proof for what is shaping up to be yet another false flag intervention. Alas, we may be waiting for a long time.
While some computer experts still express doubts whether the North was actually behind the attack, American officials said it was similar to what was believed to be a North Korean cyberattack last year on South Korean banks and broadcasters. One key similarity was the fact that the hackers erased data from the computers, something many cyberthieves do not do.
Some American officials have said that North Korea appears to have embraced cyberterrorism as its new weapon of choice for making political points, and is possibly trying to extort new concessions out of the United States and its allies. While North Korea is an impoverished nation with so little Internet usage that it is essentially a black hole in cyberspace, the attacks showed a high level of sophistication and hacking expertise.
The hackers did considerable commercial damage to Sony Pictures, posting embarrassing emails, detailed breakdowns of executive salaries, digital copies of unreleased movies and even the unpublished script for an upcoming James Bond movie.
Sony said the threats against theaters left it no choice but to cancel the Dec. 25 release of “The Interview,” in which Seth Rogen and James Franco play television journalists who get a scoop interview with Mr. Kim, and then find themselves recruited by the C.I.A. to kill him.
On Friday, Mr. Obama faulted Sony’s decision to withhold the movie, saying that it created a precedent of studios giving into intimidation.
Yes, the "terrorists won", which is precisely the cover that the US needed to maintain its imploding "Pax American" status quo. Oh, and whatever happened to all that media coverage of US "enhanced interrogation techniques" anyway?

Stinks to high fucking heaven.
Boycott Sony.
And what do you think would happen someone did a cartoon, let alone a movie, of Obama's head being blown apart?
Finally, if the PC Rainbow Fascists care to wonder how this defunct movie is being received in the rest of Asia, the answer is not well. Rather ironic given that Sony is the parent entity of Sony Pictures.
I doubt Abe's government wants to normalize realtions with North Korea,
or actually give up playing the kidnap card to arouse jingoistic fervor.
The preference instead would be to have an NK bogeyman to "justify" militarization of Japan.
That is certainly the US/MIC preference.
The US pushed for the movie to be released as a deliberate provocation.
One possible scenario then, is that an "anonymous", a "SONY Snowden" hijacked the info to embarass Abe, SONY, and the US.
Another possiblity is that the US or Abe did it to thwart possible normalization between NK and Japan.
"What a tangled web we weave, when first we practice to deceive"
Some are saying they are now embarrassed or ashamed.. Wait til they see this-

This is insanity. American GIs had better fight to the death, getting captured now will be very unpleasant. American tourists need to understand that they are hated with a white-hot passion all over the middle east.
Good job, neocon sadists. We are all being held indirectly responsible for these actions.
Watch the clip. Presented with no comment.

Let’s push the envelope and ask for the producer of Sony movie to be jailed. Hahaahahahaha
Video maker blamed for Benghazi remains jailed
Tit for tat. The seams of Hollywood bullshit are breaking down. Oops.
Give us a new stimulas bailout to write better Goebbels storylines.
The US bully is trying to start a war with yet another country!
I wish the Norks could hack as good as the NSA then they could recover those Lois Lerner emails and post them unedited on a public forum.
Wow! CNN jumped on this baby like a fly on shit and went to town like a one-legged man in an ass-kicking contest. Apparently CNN's ONLY remaining brain cell was sent into Overdrive.... What an embarassment - I'm not an American, I'm an Earthian living in the Northern Hemisphere....
MSM is dying. Just like Hollyweird. MSNBC and Cramertown CNBC are fully subsizied. CNN and Fox get paid a stipend by .gov/.corp to promote "certain things" to maintain somewhat of a "honest" man/woman reputation.
There is a possible bright side to this. All of this stuff is going to come back on their heads. There are some very well made documentaries on the internet that academically expose certain things like the Gulf of Tonkin incident and some far more recent state funded persuasion operations. These are being actively censored. Yesterday Obama said "We can't have some dictator censoring documentaries that certain people don't like, or news reports they don't like" Not here in 'Merica!
"Hacking" and "terrorism" has degraded to the level of cheap hollywood publicity stunt. It's the monetization cycle of fud.
remember the Maine-frame, and to heck with Pyongyang!
"Jeffrey Carr, cybersecurity expert and CEO of Taia Global, is one of the skeptics. He told Mashable that 'one of the biggest mistakes is that because an attack can be traced to the North Korean Internet that somehow means it's the North Korean government. That's a false assumption, because the North Korean Internet is basically provided by outside companies, in this case a Thai company. Nothing presented excludes alternate scenarios.' Carr notes that it appears the FBI is getting most of its intelligence from private security companies, without vetting or verifying that information."
Also, the claim that there is previously used North Korean code in the Sony malware proves absolutely nothing at all. Once such malware is previously caught, the code is released to others for study and countermeasures. Even the phenomenally sophisticated malware code (Stuxnet) used in the US attack on Iranian nuclear centrifuges is apparently available on-line. According to a column on the web site "The Verge," a CBS reporter found it available for download on a hacker malware site. So, want to FRAME a country? Use segments of their previosuly caught code that's available on-line.
I also find it hard to believe that the malware labs of North Korea or any country no matter how small don't have a single person available who can write threats in proper English. A lone hacker or small group probably wouldn't as indicated by the poor English typically found in their all-too-common malware.
And you will note that these hacks weren't made in Sony's Japanese offices, they were made in Los Angeles.
To me, this stinks to high heaven as a "false flag" attack by someone to "justify" even more of a "turnkey police state" on the US Internet _OR_ for some other reason to frame North Korea.
NOT that I'm generally defending that pariah government. I'm not. They're scum. I'm just saying that it's exactly that fact that permits them to be easily and conveniently USED as a scapegoat to accomplish some other goal, whatever that might be.
The goal?: BOHICA
The goal?: BOHICA
North Korea, the Zionists' latest Bin Laden.
Going to be hard to claim you killed and dumped a whole nation overboard.
The banksters need to repay us.
That's a scream.
I hope you have a shitload of spare blades and sharpeners ready for the immiment rolling of heads.
I dont know but I do believe him.
Sony rolled over because a couple of LAX tribe members were shown to be trash talking about their stable of retards, egomanics and lawn jockey tokens - i.e. they committed the cardinal sin of dropping the mask and revealing Bollywood to be a bunch of worthless P(s)OS.
Something any discerning observer figured out long ago, but is still lost on 98% of the Amerikan sheepeoples reading Fecal Magazine and other rags to amuse themselves.
The shitshow continues.
Oh well, it beats Ebola stories and Bitcoin stories.
This article claims the the NK president executed his uncle by literally feeding him to the dogs:
http://guardianlv.com/2014/01/north-korea-president-kim-jong-un-feeds-un...
Actually, I think that just being forced to look at a picture of the obese boy-king would constitute torture. And I'm sure the pictures are hung everywhere in NK. And I can't even imagine what it would be like to be forced to listen to one of his speeches.
SMOKE $ MIRRORS
WHO BENEFITS ?
Everyone relax! America didn't fold to North Korea. It just folded to some teenage "hackers" that it THOUGHT was North Korea.
Maybe Obola will appoint a Sony Pictures czar to deal with the alleged hacking incident.
And, just like the Ebola czar, he'll be given a clipboard, a power washer, and a high salary. Maybe he'll even learn to make kimchi.
Its a sad day indeed when somebody comes closer to believing the nortn koreans before taking the word of their own government.
They just tortured me and I said I did it. I also told them that if I knew I would be tortured that it was completely unnessacary because I would have told them before I did it.
Is it safe? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c-OviftusB8
First. I wanna go home with the dark haired chick on russia dat dot com...good...then, I just wanna go home. Had enough. Outlaw josey wales reference. Use it. I'm done. Signing off.
It looks like a terrible movie. I think that Sony knew it would lay such an egg that they decided not to release it. Sony is just blaming North Korea for its own fuck up in having lax security regarding the email hacks which were recently exposed. Sony's pathetic excuse is just as racist as its executives.
I would nuke these turds, eliminate them permanently and send a LOUD CLEAR message to all the other turds:
You attack us and you die, all of you, instantly.
If every American doesn't see this film, the terrorists win.
