This guy is known for saying ridiculous and highly sarcastic things. They also left out key parts of this specific statement:

> My answer will be delicate, sophisticated, and forgive me - ambiguous. We have interfered, are interfering and will continue to interfere. Carefully, precisely, surgically and in our own way. During our pinpoint operations, we will remove both kidneys and the liver at once.

This is pretty much non-news coming from this guy. He said it to rile up the reporter. And the US media is eating up like a bunch of fools.

I am truly curious whether they are genuinely this naive.

A lot of people seem to be responding as per normal to this obvious troll, and a fearful public is an easier to manage public. Public relations doesn't come cheap, so any external help is (or should be) good for the public budget.

Well it validates those in the US media that have been advancing the interference theory

Didn't the US intelligence services say they had clear evidence he was involved in exactly what he's confessing to, several years ago?
