It's clear that this is being done to validate their lies about the Russian's hacking. The US-CERT report came out today on this. I understand all this content and it is very limited scope. It does not provide any validation that Russia was involved in any kind of hacking against the US. They described what is probably the most common form of spear-phish hacking, put Russia's name on it, and listed a bunch of other hacking tools which are made by hackers who actually claim to be part of ISIS (probably CIA assets, looks to me like they are trying to false flag this) https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Fancy_Bear&oldid=...
