- threeseed 10y agoYou can always tell those who have little to contribute when they fall back on the "there is no evidence" line. It's a declassified report. The sources and methods that the US intelligence community uses is never going to be made public nor does anyone reasonably expect it to be. So instead of complaining about evidence. Assume that the Obama administration is not trying to make their last big story before leaving a lie and refute the motives etc.
- colordrops 10y agoThe problem is that we have no reason to trust politicians and the intelligence community, which have proven to be some of the most dishonest and mischievous people on the planet. This is especially true with the NSA and CIA, which have both had representatives lie under oath, commit illegal activities, and be directly involved in the overthrow of dozens of democratically elected governments. Why should we trust their report if they aren't going to show us the evidence? Why should we trust them at all for that matter?
- SirensOfTitan 10y agoShow me evidence of your claims suddenly isn't a reasonable ask in the face of an accusation? Don't complain about lack-of-evidence, just put your trust blindly in someone. This argument feels quite weak.
