2022.2.7.
The United States is making a fuss from the outset of the new year, widely publicizing our “cryptocurrency theft” and “cyber-attack” on other countries.
This is a “creation” that could only be produced by the U.S. hardened to the marrow with the inveterate repugnance towards our country.
The U.S., having long set the cyberspace as a major stage to sustain its monopolistic supremacy, armed itself with a colossal cyber force and vast array of devices and had no qualms about waging cyber-attack on its allies, not to mention its foes.
Snowden, the former agent of U.S. National Security Agency (NSA), testified: The U.S. had developed the concept of cyber war as early as in 1990s; ensured massive increase of cyber units and has so far put spurs to the preparation of internet warfare in the name of safeguarding its national interests; with the cyber-attack by Obama Administration on the Iranian nuclear facility during its first term of office, the U.S. became the first country to trigger the state-sponsored hackings.
NSA has long set up the internet surveillance project termed “PRISM” and is now conducting more than 61,000 hacking operations of all hues worldwide, collecting approximately 5 billion mobile communication records on a daily basis by bugging the phones of almost every country including our country.
Assange, the founder of WikiLeaks, exposed that the U.S. is the biggest cyber weapon state in the world, having developed more than 2,000 different kinds of cyber weapons. One international cyber security organization made public that CIA is undoubtedly behind the world’s most destructive hacker groups at present.
In 2015, the Russian experts highlighted the fact that one hacker group linked to CIA launched thousands of hacking attacks in 42 countries for 14 years. In 2021, the Chinese experts exposed in detail a CIA hacker group which launched cyber-attacks on the core areas of China including its oil sector for as long as 11 years.
In May 2021, the American magazine “Newsweek” revealed the fact that the U.S. Department of Defense formed the world’s largest secret unit and is waging a full-scale cyber warfare and that thousands of cyber experts and information collectors of this unit are infiltrating into all possible SNS of the world with various camouflaged identities to collect valuable information, and they are going so far as to concoct false public opinions.
Last year, there was a wide spread of public opinion that NSA had tapped European politicians including German Chancellor from 2012 to 2014 in league with the Danish intelligence agencies and that Biden, the then Vice-President of the U.S., might have been involved. This opinion stirred up denunciation and demands for truth investigation even among the American allies, but the U.S. is still keeping its mouth shut.
These facts speak for themselves that the U.S. is an undisputed “tapping empire”, “hacking empire” and “country of intelligence theft” that is abusing the cyberspace shared by humankind for pursuing its hegemony.
It can’t but be a shameless act tantamount to a thief calling others a thief that this country is attempting to label other countries as a “state of cybercrime” at its own free will, posing itself as a “cyber-police”, far from feeling any remorse or introspection for its crimes committed as a state of the world’s gravest cybercrimes.
Crystal clear is the American true intention to make a great fuss at every opportunity available about “cyber-attack” and “cryptocurrency theft” of others.
This is clearly aimed at covering up the cybercrimes committed by it on the global scene and re-directing the arrow of criticism pointed at it.
The American despicable acts of publicizing the sophistries of our “cyber-attack” and “cryptocurrency theft” are intended for tarnishing the prestige of our state as well as for seriously threatening and challenging our sovereignty, and therefore, we will never overlook these acts.
