So it turns out that it was a Ex-British ambassador that personal got the emails from DNC whistleblowers, and turned them over to wikileaks.



A Wikileaks envoy today claims he personally received Clinton campaign emails in Washington D.C. after they were leaked by 'disgusted' whistleblowers - and not hacked by Russia.

Craig Murray, former British ambassador to Uzbekistan and a close associate of Wikileaks founder Julian Assange, told Dailymail.com that he flew to Washington, D.C. for a clandestine hand-off with one of the email sources in September.

'Neither of [the leaks] came from the Russians,' said Murray in an interview with Dailymail.com on Tuesday. 'The source had legal access to the information. The documents came from inside leaks, not hacks.'

The article does not claim what you said. It says that this person received the information from the source, not that they were the source.

They will just ignore the facts. Kind of like when a terrorist states he is killing in the name of ISIS, the media and Obama ignore it and pretend to be searching for reasons why...

A confession from a known associate of Assange is far more evidence than has been presented by the US government that it was the Russians that hacked the DNC.

He was the source that gave it to Wikileaks.

I stated in the first sentence in the op that the ambassador got the emails from DNC whistleblowers.

This is an interesting 2004 article about Mr. Murray. I leave it to each reader to reach his or her own conclusions about this gentleman's credibility.

In all honesty having read the article, I am not sure which side it supports more. Looks like he spoke a little too much truth to power.

It's very predictable that someone would come along to attack Murray's credibility.

Murray was cleared of any wrongdoing.

Reading the article it seemed to point that out. Really didn't make London look good at all.

Under what circumstances does someone have "legal access" to the personal e-mail accounts of multiple staffmembers?
