Hillary Clinton accuses China of hacking US computers

US Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton accused China on Saturday of stealing commercial secrets and "huge amounts of government information," and of trying to "hack into everything that doesn`t move in America."
Clinton`s language on China appeared to be far stronger than that usually used by President Barack Obama`s Democratic administration.
Speaking at a campaign event in New Hampshire, Clinton said she wanted to see China`s peaceful rise.
"But we also have to be fully vigilant, China`s military is growing very quickly, they`re establishing military installations that again threaten countries we have treaties with, like the Philippines because they are building on contested property," said Clinton, who was secretary of state from 2009 to 2013.
"They`re also trying to hack into everything that doesn`t move in America. Stealing commercial secrets ... from defense contractors, stealing huge amounts of government information, all looking for an advantage," she said.
Clinton is the front-runner to win the Democratic nomination for the November 2016 presidential election.
Asked about the remarks, a White House official declined to comment.
In the most recent case involving suspicions of Chinese hacking, Obama administration officials have said China is the top suspect in the massive hacking of a U.S. government agency that compromised the personnel records of at least 4.2 million current and former government workers.
China has denied hacking into the computers of the US Office of Personnel Management.
IRAN AND PUTIN
Clinton also addressed the current talks over Iran`s nuclear program and had strong words for Tehran.
She said that even if a deal is reached with Iran, Tehran`s "aggressiveness will not end" and it will remain a principal state sponsor of terrorism.
Clinton said she hoped that "a strong verifiable deal" would be reached at talks in Vienna between world powers and Iran.
But she added that even with an agreement, "They will continue to be the principal state sponsor of terrorism. They will continue to destabilize governments in the region and beyond. They will continue to use their proxies like Hezbollah. And they will continue to be an existential threat to Israel."
The United States, other world powers and Iran have set a July 7 deadline to reach a deal to curb Tehran`s nuclear program in exchange for a lifting of sanctions that have crippled Iran`s economy.
At the campaign event, Clinton also said the United States has to be "much smarter" about how it deals with Russian President Vladimir Putin`s territorial ambitions.
She said Putin`s moves to expand Russia`s boundaries, such as the annexation of Crimea last year, posed a challenge for the United States but she touted her experience as America`s chief diplomat.
She noted that because of NATO members` agreement to protect fellow members, had Ukraine been a member of NATO when Crimea was annexed, "that would have caused us to have to respond."
She added on Putin: "I`ve dealt with him. I know him. He`s not an easy man ... But I don`t think there is any substitute other than constant engagement."

  3. Hold on, America through its 5 eyes portals spies on virtually every phone, every email and every computer it can, it is spying on every business, every businessman, it uses dirty tactics against foreign competitors, steals pending patent and invention ideas, uses financial data for insider purposes that has given America a perceptive lead over other nations financial system and in that time using illegal split second trading can hit and run on a stock or future so that when another country behind the US preemption gets to it and has made the trade, they find out the value is totally different or they have been crowded out by American banks.


    America that illegally spies on its own people, that illegally encourages its allies to spy on their own people and give that private data to America, America that without permission shares its gathered data with Israel, has the temerity to dare accuse another nation of hacking or spying is beyond the pall.


    Once upon a time America, its allies led from a moral standpoint, that they didn't spy, that they didn't expect its citizens to carry ID or papers like the Nazi's or the Soviets did, there is no moral anymore, if Clinton gets into office it will be the biggest slap in the face of the American citizen, she is just a corporate face of a gangster outfit, if Jeb gets in, equally so with his links to 9/11 and one has to ask these so called "proud" Americans who still cannot see that the US is being pushed back within its borders, that their government sees its people as a threat, as a criminal entity, as fodder for wars and fodder for death and misery, that the choice facing America next election is to choose which criminal boss, one would ask what the founding fathers who fought the most powerful empire on earth and won, would say about the craven cowardice shown by most Americans and by all accounts the only people to be blamed ARE the American people simply because they had something new, something wonderful and they threw it away because they lost that spark and became happy watching innocent people getting slaughtered in their name.


    For shame...
