If they said that was a fact then they better be able to prove it.

Atheist cultural Jews always run to implied antisemitism as a front line to deflect criticism, as if they’re any more Jewish than Hitler was Catholic.

That’s right, she did. She dedicated her book to “Patriot Seth Rich”, and claimed she feared for her own life being taken by snipers.

If there was some funding and support, and you got the right judge, there might be an opportunity to reveal some things about Seth Rich in discovery.

Libel or slander, against both of which truth is an absolute defense that would require discovery to rebut or establish;-}

This was what I was thinking. From what I have read, there is quite a lot of evidence to indicate Seth Rich did in fact leak that information to Wikileaks.

I wonder why Julian Assange has now been deprived of communications while he is in the Ecuadorian Embassy?

He was reported to be at a bar gathering that night and I believe, along with one of the AWAN brothers DNC’s Debbie’s IT guy. Maybe the last one to see Seth alive.

Not understanding what Seth’s religion has to do with this, or why it is in the title.

I didn't know he was Jewish, and I don't see what bearing it has on the claim that he leaked the information to Wikileaks.

They must have had something in mind by making a point of mentioning it. I'm not sure what it was, other than to invoke some sentiment that perhaps Seth Rich was murdered by an anti-Semite or something.

I think Donna Brazile has suggested that his death could have been a hit.

I think she probably knows the Clintons better than most.

By my estimation he’s hoping for a quick go-away settlement which would be a mistake on the part of defendants, it would be touted in the media the same as an admission of guilt. They need to hold their ground and force it into discovery, which if he’s the least bit intelligent will not be allowed. He’s opening a bigger can of worms than he bargained for.

They’re implying that media critics of Aaron Rich are antisemitic.

So it's just a different flavor of the "RACIST!" card? Makes sense.

As Glenn Reynolds says, "If you can hear the dog whistle, you must be the dog."

Perhaps a False Flag for purposes of distracting the Dems...think about it....everything could come out in deposition, and the family can then claim plausible deniability......truth revealed without implicating themselves to be on the receiving end of any liberal attacks.

"The snowflake pisses on his brother’s grave..."

As did their parents.

What kind of scum would try to profit from a son or sibling's death???
Or use his death to advance a political agenda?

Oh, wait: I just remembered the Paul Wellstone "memorial service"...

It’s a mistake. They’ll take the Rich’s to trial for the specific purpose of deposing them.

Yo Aaron, has the crime been solved?

No?

Please go find the killer(s) first, and then file the law suit.

The brother, Aaron, is alive and is the one alleging that HE is defamed by claims that he (Aaron) was involved. I have no idea whether he has much of a case or not, but it is a living person claiming defamation.

Since the libel suit was filed in America, it is nothing but a publicity stunt — no way he would ever prevail. That would require proving that the defendants made specific claims about Aaron Rich that they KNEW to be false. As reported, the suit alleges that the defendants “suggested” Aaron Rich might have played a role. “Suggested” connotes speculation, not a claim of fact. The plaintiff would have a heck of a time proving that the defendants did not believe that it was even possible for Aaron Rich to have helped get the data to the WikiLeaks. Next the plaintiff has to show that the defendants acted out of malice against the plaintiff (not malice for someone else like HRC, or for political motives). That would be difficult, since the defendants likely believe that helping give the DNC files to WikiLeaks was a major public service.

The defense could probably get this case tossed for not meeting the threshold for libel, just on the face of the allegation. I’d sort of like for the defendants to leave it in play long enough to subject Aaron Rich to a deposition and demand for documents.
