a six-person team that rented a sailboat under false identities and used deep-sea diving equipment to place explosive charges on the gas pipelines

I doubt I could do it without getting caught, but the fact that I could cripple Europe's economy with a sailboat and a few explosives is terrifying.

Even that story is bullshit, because the boat they tracked as being the rented one is relatively small, and they'd brought on several thousand pounds worth of explosives.

Are you an expert deep sea diver?

[-] GarbageShoot@hexbear.net 15 points 10 months ago

That's something a person could viably become. I think the point is that there was a lack of institutional power or actual military equipment or anything else beyond the reach of an individual being used here.

"But thousands of pounds of explosives"

Yeah, that's probably the hardest part, but it's not like any of it was particularly artisanal.

I wouldn't be caught dead using non-artisanal explosives

Whose economy is crippled lol

The HCOB Eurozone Manufacturing PMI came in at 43.1 in October 2023, down from 43.4 in September and compared with a preliminary estimate of 43. This marked the sixteenth consecutive month that the Eurozone's manufacturing sector has been in contraction territory, and the sharpest in three months
