28. This likely happened before... When we blamed North Korea for CIA counterfeited super dollars!

Note back in 2008, when we were blaming North korea for the "super dollar" counterfeits that lead to us changing our currency substantially to avoid such counterfeits. McClatchey then reported then that it was more likely that the CIA was producing such counterfeits to help fund their operations without scrutiny. If this newer hack story is also found to be true, then perhaps this and the older operation should have newer investigations to see whether there is a clandestine "blame korea" infrastructure for things that are being "kept quiet" that our government and other linked PTB entities may be engaged in.
