Answer 1

I think it is quite likely. The Russians certainly have the motive, the wherewithal and a tradition of hatching long term plots. The ideas the Russians practised about subversion are explained here by an ex-practitioner: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W2RNXxBX-WM



The video is quite long but enthralling, nonetheless. It explains the ideas that were embedded in all KGB agents and explains how you can get what you want without going to war. Basically, you get the enemy to turn on itself.



It does sound like the thing that Clinton would say and WikiLeaks has just documented it. So I see no reason to doubt it at present.





EDIT: I would have posted this in answer to the second question on this subject but I am blocked there.



It is quite frightening what the Russians are up to and have been for a long time.



► Do you think education is being dumbed down?

► Should the unelected media really be allowed to shower us with propaganda?

► Are people retreating from religion so that they no longer have a moral code independent of institutions with vested interests?



The video at 11:50 is where the speaker, Yuri Bezminov, likens subversion to a martial art where you use the strength of your enemy against him by helping any group that is moving in your direction. I think the anti-frackers would be a suitably qualified group.



Think about it. Would the Russians benefit if The West produced less gas and oil? Of course it would. It would give them a much bigger demand for their own products. So why not support any anti-fossil fuel production?



The trouble with a democracy with open borders is that all kinds of views are possible and are allowed. To be subversive you only have to support the views that will benefit you. The indigenous population will do nearly all the work for you.

Answer 2

Nice try denier boy. Everyone with half a brain knows that breitbart isn't an actual news source.

Just because some deranged dimwit who believes conspiracy theories or some billionaire or corporation starts a 'news' source, that doesn't make it legit.

Real news sources are peer reviewed and come from reliable, credible sources.

It's beyond obvious that putin is trying to undermine President Obama by having trump take over. It isn't going to work. The people who live in America are smarter than that.

If President Obama and other leaders, policy makers, officials, dignitaries and licensed enforcement technicians are a threat to putin then that should help you begin to understand how dangerous this is.

If trump took over, that would pretty much mean we lose both Syria and the Ukraine.

A vote for Hillary is a vote for VICTORY!

Answer 3

Russia's concern is oil prices. It's not liberal or conservative. Whatever makes oil prices higher, that's what Russia wants since oil is their primary export.



You don't have to worry about anti-fracking groups though. Geologists also have series concerns with fracking, as well as any scientist who studies things connected to environmental concerns. Honestly, it would be best if we stopped digging up the carbon that has been getting embedded in the ground for a half billion years.



Spewing it into the air to the tune of millions of tons per day isn't going to be great for us in the long term.

Answer 4

It's about time to shut down the United States Federal Reserve Banking System.



"Central Banking" makes it far to easy to move monetary funds from country to country in order to influence a political direction.



Just look what Obama did when he sent $1.7 billion in cash to Iran without having to go through Congress?



It's ridiculous to know how easy it is to influence just about anything in one way or another as long as you have a palpable idea or purpose.



Our current monetary system is easily manipulated.



I wonder what these groups would do, if the US Government decided to shut down the Federal Reserve Banking System and the "Federal Reserve Note" (which is printed on every monetary bill) in favor of an actual United States Dollar where Congress controlled it instead of politically appointed hacks and a Federal Reserve Board made up of Kennedy, Rockefeller, and Leman descendants?

Answer 5

I only follow left wing news outlets such as CNN,ABC,CBS,NBC,REUTERS,CNBC,NY TIMES,HUFFINGTON POST, etc...
