The net is abuzz with today's Financial Times article that places blame for the Pentagon's hack attack in June onto the Chinese government:Current and former officials have told the Financial Times that an internal investigation has revealed that the incursion came from the People's Liberation Army.All we need to do is prove that Iran supplied China with the computers to use.. and... uh, no that won't work. Are we absolutely sure that this isn't just a load of bullshit?
One senior US official said the Pentagon had pinpointed the exact origins of the attack. Another person familiar with the event said there was a "very high level of confidence . . . trending towards total certainty" that the PLA was responsible.Lucky for you Shakers I was able to find the leaked Powerpoint slide which clearly shows the metrics to support that official's statement.
I wonder if W will use that near-total-certainty to administer a presidential wedgie on Hu Jintao this Thursday.
