Exclusive: Trump campaign guts GOP’s anti-Russia stance on Ukraine
https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/global-opinions/trump-campaign-guts-gops-anti-russia-stance-on-ukraine/2016/07/18/98adb3b0-4cf3-11e6-a7d8-13d06b37f256_story.html?postshare=9961468859608386&tid=ss_tw …


The Trump campaign worked behind the scenes last week to make sure the new Republican platform won’t call for giving weapons to Ukraine to fight Russian and rebel forces, contradicting the view of almost all Republican foreign policy leaders in Washington.

Throughout the campaign, Trump has been dismissive of calls for supporting the Ukraine government as it fights an ongoing Russian-led intervention. Trump’s campaign chairman, Paul Manafort, worked as a lobbyist for the Russian-backed former Ukrainian president Viktor Yanukovych for more than a decade.

Okay, this sounds crazy, but it's getting less crazy all the time

Russian tanks at Kamensk-Shakhtinsky train station indicating fresh supplies going to Ukraine:
https://informnapalm.org/en/russian-tanks-kamensk-shakhtinsky/ …


Volunteers of the InformNapalm international community recorded a new Russian military activity at the Ukrainian-Russian border. The transfer of Russian heavy weapons was detected at Kamenskaya train station (Kamensk-Shakhtinsky).

The image documents main battle tanks: №1, 2, 4 – T-72B; №3, 5 – T-72B models of 1989 or 1999 and railway freight wagons, usually used to carry the ammunition.

This town is located less than 30km from the border checkpoint Izvarine where active transfers of Russian heavy weapons to Donbas had been noticed previously. Kamensk-Shakhtinsky was used as a transit point before sending the equipment to Ukraine.


There are more than 1000 artillery systems of diff. types, tube artillery, rocket artillery & mortars, not to mention other weapons currently in the hands of Russian troops and her mercenaries inside eastern Ukraine....

Bears in the Midst: Intrusion into the Democratic National Committee
June 15, 2016
Dmitri Alperovitch

CrowdStrike stands fully by its analysis and findings identifying two separate Russian intelligence-affiliated adversaries present in the DNC network in May 2016. On June 15, 2016 a blog post to a WordPress site authored by an individual using the moniker Guccifer 2.0 claiming credit for breaching the Democratic National Committee. This blog post presents documents alleged to have originated from the DNC.



Whether or not this posting is part of a Russian Intelligence disinformation campaign, we are exploring the documents’ authenticity and origin. Regardless, these claims do nothing to lessen our findings relating to the Russian government’s involvement, portions of which we have documented for the public and the greater security community.

There is rarely a dull day at CrowdStrike where we are not detecting or responding to a breach at a company somewhere around the globe. In all of these cases, we operate under strict confidentiality rules with our customers and cannot reveal publicly any information about these attacks. But on rare occasions, a customer decides to go public with information about their incident and give us permission to share our knowledge of the adversary tradecraft with the broader community and help protect even those who do not happen to be our customers. This story is about one of those cases.

CrowdStrike Services Inc., our Incident Response group, was called by the Democratic National Committee (DNC), the formal governing body for the US Democratic Party, to respond to a suspected breach. We deployed our IR team and technology and immediately identified two sophisticated adversaries on the network – COZY BEAR and FANCY BEAR. We’ve had lots of experience with both of these actors attempting to target our customers in the past and know them well. In fact, our team considers them some of the best adversaries out of all the numerous nation-state, criminal and hacktivist/terrorist groups we encounter on a daily basis. Their tradecraft is superb, operational security second to none and the extensive usage of ‘living-off-the-land’ techniques enables them to easily bypass many security solutions they encounter. In particular, we identified advanced methods consistent with nation-state level capabilities including deliberate targeting and ‘access management’ tradecraft – both groups were constantly going back into the environment to change out their implants, modify persistent methods, move to new Command & Control channels and perform other tasks to try to stay ahead of being detected. Both adversaries engage in extensive political and economic espionage for the benefit of the government of the Russian Federation and are believed to be closely linked to the Russian government’s powerful and highly capable intelligence services.

COZY BEAR (also referred to in some industry reports as CozyDuke or APT 29) is the adversary group that last year successfully infiltrated the unclassified networks of the White House, State Department, and US Joint Chiefs of Staff. In addition to the US government, they have targeted organizations across the Defense, Energy, Extractive, Financial, Insurance, Legal, Manufacturing Media, Think Tanks, Pharmaceutical, Research and Technology industries, along with Universities. Victims have also been observed in Western Europe, Brazil, China, Japan, Mexico, New Zealand, South Korea, Turkey and Central Asian countries. COZY BEAR’s preferred intrusion method is a broadly targeted spearphish campaign that typically includes web links to a malicious dropper. Once executed on the machine, the code will deliver one of a number of sophisticated Remote Access Tools (RATs), including AdobeARM, ATI-Agent, and MiniDionis. On many occasions, both the dropper and the payload will contain a range of techniques to ensure the sample is not being analyzed on a virtual machine, using a debugger, or located within a sandbox. They have extensive checks for the various security software that is installed on the system and their specific configurations. When specific versions are discovered that may cause issues for the RAT, it promptly exits. These actions demonstrate a well-resourced adversary with a thorough implant-testing regime that is highly attuned to slight configuration issues that may result in their detection, and which would cause them to deploy a different tool instead. The implants are highly configurable via encrypted configuration files, which allow the adversary to customize various components, including C2 servers, the list of initial tasks to carry out, persistence mechanisms, encryption keys and others. An HTTP protocol with encrypted payload is used for the Command & Control communication.

FANCY BEAR (also known as Sofacy or APT 28) is a separate Russian-based threat actor, which has been active since mid 2000s, and has been responsible for targeted intrusion campaigns against the Aerospace, Defense, Energy, Government and Media sectors. Their victims have been identified in the United States, Western Europe, Brazil, Canada, China, Georgia, Iran, Japan, Malaysia and South Korea. Extensive targeting of defense ministries and other military victims has been observed, the profile of which closely mirrors the strategic interests of the Russian government, and may indicate affiliation with Главное Разведывательное Управление (Main Intelligence Department) or GRU, Russia’s premier military intelligence service. This adversary has a wide range of implants at their disposal, which have been developed over the course of many years and include Sofacy, X-Agent, X-Tunnel, WinIDS, Foozer and DownRange droppers, and even malware for Linux, OSX, IOS, Android and Windows Phones. This group is known for its technique of registering domains that closely resemble domains of legitimate organizations they plan to target. Afterwards, they establish phishing sites on these domains that spoof the look and feel of the victim’s web-based email services in order to steal their credentials. FANCY BEAR has also been linked publicly to intrusions into the German Bundestag and France’s TV5 Monde TV station in April 2015.

At DNC, COZY BEAR intrusion has been identified going back to summer of 2015, while FANCY BEAR separately breached the network in April 2016. We have identified no collaboration between the two actors, or even an awareness of one by the other. Instead, we observed the two Russian espionage groups compromise the same systems and engage separately in the theft of identical credentials. While you would virtually never see Western intelligence agencies going after the same target without de-confliction for fear of compromising each other’s operations, in Russia this is not an uncommon scenario. “Putin’s Hydra: Inside Russia’s Intelligence Services”, a recent paper from European Council on Foreign Relations, does an excellent job outlining the highly adversarial relationship between Russia’s main intelligence services – Федеральная Служба Безопасности (FSB), the primary domestic intelligence agency but one with also significant external collection and ‘active measures’ remit, Служба Внешней Разведки (SVR), the primary foreign intelligence agency, and the aforementioned GRU. Not only do they have overlapping areas of responsibility, but also rarely share intelligence and even occasionally steal sources from each other and compromise operations. Thus, it is not surprising to see them engage in intrusions against the same victim, even when it may be a waste of resources and lead to the discovery and potential compromise of mutual operations.

Astonishing how US MSM media is playing DNC emails as the scandal--rather than Russian interference.

Direct ground combat is picking up which along with the intensive shellings indicate that the Russian ground offensive is picking up strength and probing for a weak point in the UAF defensive lines along the entire Minsk 2 front line....

It appears that Russian wants some sort of "military ground victory" in order to move to a compromise that it wants to dictate to the Ukrainians as the US has basically "bought in" in the Kerry and Nuland discussions that Ukraine must compromise without a single Russian compromise....

We can see that in the so call "local election primaries" being held in non compliance with Minsk 2 that will then give Russia the opportunity to say OK we want to reintegrate BUT on the Russian terms which means the DNC/LNC would have a veto over anything Ukraine does ie join NATO or the EU.....

Russian non linear warfare that is being practice by Russia in both Syrian and eastern Ukraine has two cornerstones that must be successful in order to succeed in achieving their three core geopolitical goals;
1. damage and discredit EU
2. damage and discredit NATO
3. completely disconnect the US from Europe and the ME

Those two cornerstones are;
1. info warfare
2. cyber warfare

Here is the initial report on the Russian GRU/FSB hack of the Democratic National Committee...from the company that carried out the cyber investigation.....

I am posting this simply to inform just how effective the Russians have become in the cyber warfare front.....

On June 15, 2016 a blog post to a WordPress site authored by an individual using the moniker Guccifer 2.0 claiming credit for breaching the Democratic National Committee. This blog post presents documents alleged to have originated from the DNC.

Russian led mercenaries are attempting the last few days to find a break through point in and around Maryinka....first started with small spetsnaz units and now are at platoon and larger units

Again hacked emails working hard to create anther "narrative"....

While this is a typical Der Spiegel style anti US slant.....which if they had been tracking Russian military numbers inside Ukraine stating at the invasion point until now thy would have possibly come to another different conclusion.....

That namely the UAF was until Minsk 2 barely hanging on militarily and could have lost the entire eastern Ukraine...

BUT notice Der Spiegel does not go down that path........there was already full war going on inside eastern Ukraine BUT Spiegel argues it was NATO trying to get defensive weapons to the UAF hat increased the war....

Somehow Der Spiegel missed the 500 tanks, over 1300 artillery/MRLSs and over 1200 IFVs that "somehow arrived there during a Russian "vacation"....

So what Breedlove was pushing for was nothing when compared to Russian activities....actually this article feeds into the Russian propaganda stream from 2014 onwards of if NATO sends weapons "it will escalate the war" NOT mentioning that Russia escalated the fighting four times already.
