In a press conference in march Hillary denied that she did not email
any classified material to anyone, This denial was a strategic attempt
to subdue the confusing questions about the files found on the unsecured
email server she used for a State Department business.
Clever,
Clinton tactfully dodged the fact that she received classified email on
that vulnerable server, conduct also in violation of 18 USC 1924, which
makes it a crime to have classified information at an “unauthorized
location.”
It was disclosed from unreliable/reliable
sources that Clinton’s unsecured emails contained materials which are
supposed to be kept away from a third party — one of the top
classifications — calls into question just about every phrase the former
Secretary of State and her campaign staff have uttered to excuse her
conduct. Let’s forget about the unimportant and identify her email
transgressions for what they are: gross mismanagement of classified
material that happens to violate the law.
One
of Clinton's spokesperson proffered that because the material was not
specifically pinned (marked), Hillary Clinton could not have been aware
that the material was classified. Carelessly in a press conference,
Clinton bragged that she was “totally aware of the classified
requirements.” Apparently not.
The high secrecy
demanded by some documents have required the high ranking government
official to always store all their confidential materials on the highly
secured government server to avoid any mistake forwardings of these
confidential materials to "unathorised recipients or whatsoever”. But
reports have it that the reason why the documents were not pinned is
because Mrs Hillary didn't submit them for review.
As
former intelligence professionals, we are well aware that severe
discipline guidelines are required for handling confidential
informations. Briefings that include confidential informations are held
in Sensitive and well isolated Information Facilities, rooms with
elaborate protections to minimize unwelcome ears from hearing the
discussion going on
Also telephone conversations of
secretive informations are made via secure phones. Emails that might
contain confidential informations are sent only through well protected
and monitored networks, not through a personal server in a balcony.
Anyways,
Hillary is expected to understand the meaning and nature of information
termed "classified" These subjects are completely discussed handlessly
without pen and paper or recording devices. This situation giving rise
to what is called "oral briefing". High ranking government officials are
common with these situation of briefing many times this system is
adopted in briefing members of the congress on some confidential
matters. however, when this means is used to convey a message, the
government official is expected to understand the importance of the
secrecy of the message and is obliged to protect it effectively.
Turning
a blind eye on her responsibility to be aware when she is given
classified information, Clinton recommended that the matter was
exaggerated because the documents were not classified/confidential at
the time she had custody of them and also then, various parts of the
government are disagreeing about whether the material should be
classified. or not.
An intelligence community’s
Inspector General, whose office conducted a stochastic search of
Clinton’s emails and found 10 percent classified (at a level lower than
Top Secret), "those emails were classified when they were sent and are
still classified now” said the General
On further
search into the Sydnian email producers Blumenthals, there were about 15
emails related to Hillary Clinton and Benghazi that were not in the
email productions Clinton submitted to the state department. Is this not
obstruction to justice?
Hillary have been potentially
guilty of violating the 18 USC 1924 code of conduct and ought to be
charged for and pernalised as the law demands but the big question is
"how does she escape this effect"?
