Downplay it all you want, I think it’s pretty serious what they are doing and I think all vessels going in and out of lake NATO should be boarded and inspected and detailed tracked. I’d even go so far to require them to have a black box installed that real time reads out and transmits ship info. Turning off your black box or tampering with it means the ship is sealed and the crew as a whole is charged with a crime of tampering with the box. The crime is added to the law in each of the surrounding NATO countries and carries a hefty fine and seizure of the ship and her cargo. How’s that for political change under threat of violence.
i’m not downplaying it and also think it’s serious, i just hate everything being called terrorism, when it’s clearly not.
IMO they should guard that equipment with submarines and just torpedo everything that drags its anchor near it to bits without warning. But that’s exactly why they don’t let ppl like me near the red buttons.
Guarding stuff at sea is actually pretty difficult. But in this case I feel terrorism is warranted. We can agree to disagree on the term used… since we seem to agree it cannot be ignored and stern action is needed.
