It seems to be a pervasive strategy of US power-brokers to accuse foreign governments of doing what they themselves are doing. In this case the accusation can be summarized as, "covertly meddling with the outcome of US elections in order to bias the outcome of the US political process." Am I the only one seeing the HYPOCRISY of that accusation? The US government, through the efforts of its diplomatic corps, its intelligence services, its economic sanctions, and its direct military interventions, has overtly and covertly subverted the political processes of HUNDREDS of countries in Central and South America, Europe, Africa, and Asia and has openly touted its goals of "regime change". And these actions have caused the deaths and excruciating suffering of hundreds of millions of people. If anyone has the moral high-ground on this issue, it certainly isn't the US government.
