10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.
You allow Russia to invade one country, you invite Russia to invade the next country.
You allow Russia to shoot down one passenger plane, you invite Russia to shoot down the next passenger plane.
You allow Russia to cut one undersea cable, you invite Russia to cut more undersea cables.
I'm just waiting for the moment when a country exposed to "accidental" cable cutting, or attacks using water jets from the Chinese coast guard or similar, just responds by shooting first and asking questions later.
Like: You cut our cables/blocked our atoll from getting resupply, etc... put a 50mm in their face and carry on. Let them do the responding.
"Oh no, they were conducting acts of war and were in our way, so we sank them. What are you gonna do about it? Maybe stop doing that?"
Just start ‘accidentally’ sinking the fucking ships that ‘accidentally’ cut the cables and that will get the message across.
That assumes Russia gives a shit about it's people.
Tap for spoiler
Russia does not give a shit.
We need to go a lot further than this, but yes.
We need to stop pretending that nuclear armament is an excuse to trample other countries with this childish crap.
Cut their internet and declare their currency holdings forfeit. Ban all travel to Russia. Force all companies to divest their holdings in Russia. Eject them from the UN.
Force them to live alone and if China joins in, then start ramping up production and give 'em the same treatment.
Keeping it tense between them and China is so good, alone theyll never make it. Watching Putin the panty poisoner and Xi Pooh bear give each other crusty blowjobs and get nothing from it is top 👌
The West must fucking find its balls and acknowledge that we are in a hybrid war against the blyats. It is high fucking time we fight back. Using every means short of direct military conflict.
Short of? Eastern Europe is being invaded and Europe is standing by...
Unlike the previous ships, this one was immediately seized by armed forces, so I guess we're starting to wake up.
I studier the west is fully aware of that, and is fighting it on multiple fonts
