The world learned about it when Politico published an article about how somebody named Robert with an AOL email address emailed confidential material from the Trump campaign to Politico. About the same time, Microsoft announced that an email account belonging to a former high-up Trump campaign official phished a current Trump high-up campaign official. Trump confirmed it. What a surprise; Iranians phished American politicians. Who’d a thunk it?

No, it’s not that Iranians favor one candidate over another. Iranians want Americans to tear ourselves apart. The Iranians, Russians, Chinese, North Koreans, and probably others feed “news” stories blasting right-wingers on left-wing websites, and blasting left-wingers on right-wing websites. Sometimes, even the websites are fake. And then they laugh at us as we fight each other because we read something derogatory on the internet.
Not to brag–well, maybe just a little–but I did predict Iranian phishing attacks and social media manipulation in “Virus Bomb” and “Trafficking U.”
We need to not be stupid. Our enemies want to play us like puppets on a string.
