Fungie, you’re time has come!

Board and arraign the terrorists. France and Sweden can help.
Looking forward to The Ditch reporting on this…….
The Red Scare strikes again
Sieze the ship.

Glad to see we track them. Russian merchant vessels are the epitome of sketcy, with constant false flagging, environmental issues, poor maintenance, shadow fleet ones carrying AIS, GPS and RADAR jamming equipment and ofc the famous anchor dragging they love to pull
Cant wait to hear from comrades Mick and Clare on this
Here’s a thought, maybe stop doing any business with Russians.
Fishermen, *ASSEMBLE*
Where are all the tankies crying poor over defence investment?
“Sure why would we need to spend money on defense”
Bit of a nothing burger story when you read it all. Surely if the Russians wanted to take out cables they’d just do it covertly like the US/Ukrainians did with Nordstream. So they’ve a certain level of deniability. Dropping and dragging anchors of cargo ships to do it would be easily detected as that story makes clear.
The article relies on _anonymous sources_ for its claim of dragging anchors – and it’s co-authored with the [OCCRP](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Organized_Crime_and_Corruption_Reporting_Project) – which is funded by USAID – a US government funded organization with a [known history of political interference and promotion of regime change](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Agency_for_International_Development#Cuba) – which [is regarded by some as having worked closely with the CIA](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Agency_for_International_Development#Political_operations_abroad).
It’s an extraordinary claim to say that these boats are dragging anchors – and extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence – and relying on ‘anonymous sources’, from pretty questionably funded institutions, whose funders (US government broadly) have an interest in moving Ireland towards militarism – does not meet the ‘extraordinary evidence’ bar by a long shot.
I guess being a “neutral” country means having no defensive capabilities and backbone. Got it. 👍
But sure we’re neutral, it’s not any of our business what they’re doing. They wouldn’t do us any harm because we NEUTRAL RIGHT? /s
We should monitor the situation and give a harsh warning that will teach them
Yeah? Cutting the yanks off from the rest of the world at last?
Clare Daly and Paul Murphy said something about NATO imperialism and no to war.
Kept the receipt on that, how do I get a refund and a functioning national security posture in return?
lol at the irish talking smack about war. Im sure whoever it is you are gonna attack are shiteing themselves
