In case you wanna know whom they were trying to kill; it was Armin Papperger, the head of German arms manufacturer Rheinmetall.
TBH I kind of wish they uncovered the crime in progress than the plot, an excuse to bring NATO in and end the brutal Russian oligarchy would be a boon to this world.
I am not so excited for the nukes.
My house is inside the blast radius of a hydrogen bomb dropped on the middle of the nearest city. So if that happens, I’ll just turn to dust and that would be nice.
Unfortunately my job is far enough away that I would get to be one of the people whose eyes boil and skin turns black before they die from the burns.
Can we schedule WW3 for when I’m at home. Would rather just be vaporized.
They Sabre Rattled yesterday and they will Sabre Rattle tomorrow, but we cannot just start giving land and human sacrifices to thugs or the thugs will become our kings.
Weird Commentsection here. Lots of removed Comments, many banned accounts and accounts only a few hours old.
Those accounts are all one person, their original account was called Antiyanks. Not sure if it’s mental illness or an obsession (or both), but they keep making accounts over and over and over, all of which get banned quickly because they’re hostile to everyone. I could never imagine spending literal months of my time making hundreds of accounts just to yell at people, yet this guy does exactly that.
Oh, that guy.
going after billionaires and weapons chiefs… the west will never sing that!
Won’t someone think of the merchants of death!?!
From the linked article:
there had been no concrete attempt to murder Papperger but rather a “plot.”
Meh. Every country draws up plans like these all the time. It’s not really news unless they move to act on it.
Typical exaggeration by the media then.
The US too drafted a plan to invade the Netherlands “just in case” the International Court decided that the US should follow international law.
I’m guessing a slow news day at Politico
You mean, another day in Europe when we are both continuously threatened by our so-called ally and sabotaged by Russian/Chinese plots . Sure/s.
Comparing strategic war plans to state sponsored assainations of private citizens…
Gold medal in mental gymnastics
to state sponsored assainations of private citizens.
You’re talking about the US’ policy abroad here, right?
Comparing strategic war plans
Or is this your attempt at justifying drafting plans to invade a friendly country?
Either way…whatever you gotta tell yourself
Yes any state sponsored assainations of private citizens (especially indirectly associated citizens) should be protested. Including the US’sactions… But that’s not what we’re here to talk about now is it?
Also, completely valid to draft plans to invade anyone. Acting on those plans are where the line is crossed.
