This reminds me of the long-lived Putin memes:
Do you really believe that someone could identify GRU officers using open source documentation, without assistance from intelligence agencies?
The main reason I do not believe these claims is that the "researchers" also are credited with blaming the Ghouta gassing on Bashar al-Assad and the downing of MH-17 on Russia, both of which are complete BS.
An important aspect of our lives is how we determine what is true and what is false (i.e., our epistemology). I now argue that We the People have absolutely no reliable methods available to distinguish fact from fiction. And that means such decisions are now based on FAITH - faith in the source(s) of our alleged knowledge.
And I have absolutely no faith in the MSM, the government, or all the other propaganda agencies which spin such yarns day in and day out.
And by the way, this sort of bogus "investigation" (or something even more slipshod) is used to determine whom to kill using our drones or other military weapons. And it's also creeping into our so-called justice system. We should be resisting this with every fiber of our being.
