It wasn't hacked, it was a spear phishing attack, which isn't even remotely like a hack. The attackers were not identified, and the attack occurred on an unclassified, unsecured computer network that is used for unsecured internet Web browsing and access. It was the American Free Beacon, who has a history of making stuff up using unidentified, unnamed sources that turn out to be people that don't even exist who "broke" this story.

Right, ABC News sources and quotes the Free Beacon, who sources and quotes an unnamed and unverifiable official. And in any case it wasn't a hack. Spear fishing attacks happen to thousands of computer networks around the world ever day. There are several hundred going on right now as I type this.

an email was opened by someone in the military office of the white house opening the email allowed the phishing which allows malicious attempts to access targeted senistive or confidential information

So, no, you don't know what a phishing attack is. That's what I thought. What you described above is not what phishing is. Phishing is, say, an e-mail from your bank or from Paypal that appears in nearly every logical and casual aspect as legitimate, but it's totally fake. It induces you to enter I formation like login, password, account numbers, etc., which is them sent to the attacker, often while actually taking you to the real site and logging you in as if nothing had happened. Opening the email doesn't allow the phishing, stupidly entering information into the information fields is what allows it.

what i have said is the way the official described as a spear phishing attack which they say was successful. Oh and of course Obama is going to deny it just like they denied that Libya was a terrorist attack

If they had got into Obama's brain they would have found nothing there either. Obama likely gave someone the needed address.

In a rush I prefer the concept of dynamite fishing.

Its all propaganda and we know we cannot trust the current administration.
