Would you mind elaborating on your actual evidence?  All I see is logic,
but I do not see much hard fact.  I'm not agreeing, I'm not disagreeing.
I'm just asking for clarification.

By the way, Russian sites have been hacked as well. So why is everyone

sites and infrastructure is down as well that means the Georgian
government has hacked them, doesn't it Or does it? Or is the whole
thing just a false flag by the U.S government underworld to infulence
McCain and Obama as they are potentially coming in to the white house?

It seems to me that there is bias towards Russia in the security
community and that people don't really care if Russia was hacked,
because the community seem to have already chosen who they like and
who they are going to support and who they are going to point blame
at.

I don't think westerners have ever liked Russia, so as soon as
something like this happens, folks straight away are bias towards
Russia.

You've got to remember this could easily be a false flag cyber attack
to setup Russia to make them look bad while ramping up cyber security
as a national security agenda as Marcus Sachs
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FSUPTZVlkyU says in the Youtube video.

The reasons for a false flag cyber attack is there, the evidence has
been put in front of you by n3td3v.

This isn't just some false flag conspiracy, there are plausible
reasons why this could be a false flag.

In the video Marcus Sachs asked the audience for ways we could make
cyber security a national security agenda, false flagging something
like the Georgian and Russian websites and infrastructure is not a way
the government underworld might make cyber security a national
security agenda?

I call a false flag, and I find it suspicious that people are only
talking about the Georgian websites and infrastructure being cyber
attacked and not the Russian stuff as well.

I would be interested in what answers the audience gave to Marcus
Sachs, but thats not in the video unfortunately.

All the best,

n3td3v
