    There is a spy war between Russia and Europe right now that no one is talking about. NATO the EU and the Kremlin are fighting an all out hybrid war right now. Assassinations, arsons, and disinformation are central to Moscow's attempt to limit aid to Ukraine.

    In Finland we have seen a number of break-ins and break-in attempts to municipal water service facilities. And the way Finnish secret police fights them was to inform citizens that this is happening, which increases attention of the citizens.

    A little additional info on Austria: Neutrality is not part of the Austrian constitution, it is just a law in constitutional rank. What´s the difference you may ask? Being a law in constitutional rank, it means neutrality could be removed with a 2/3 majority in parliament. If it would be a part of the constitution, it would need a referendum. So the reason why Austria is still neutral is not the constitution, but the lack of political will and because free-riding worked out quite well in the past decades.

    Bulgarian here, I don't think the fires and explosions at weapon facilities in Bulgaria were due to Russian agents. Those routinely blow up because they are grossly mismanaged and basic safety protocols are ignored. More often than not they're not even guarded, especially the depots for expired munitions, so if a fire breaks out there's no one on site to put it out or call the fire department. The same kind of incompetence and corruption that exists in Russia is very much present here too. Ukrainian soldiers have complained about munitions supplied by Bulgaria and I can definitely see why.

Workers working overtime is also a safety hazard when dealing with explosive materials. One spark, and that’s it.

      Luckily those US-tier Protests aren't very effective nor important in most of European Countries because for Example in Germany, Poland, Italy, Hungary etc. we don't have a big History of Colonisation nor Slavery, and those of us who had Colonies, had them for a short Time. Which is why Black People and Racial Divides are not a Topic in most of European Countries outsides of the UK and France. So those Tactics would never work here, no matter how hard they try.

    The biggest thing that these arson and graffiti are trying to accomplish is a kind of international astroturfing. For those unfamiliar with the term, it’s a play on the term grass roots activism. Grass roots activism refers to a kind of spontaneous, bottom-up, social movement that emerges at the local community level and are usually self-organized by local community members instead of professional activists. Astroturfing is when a movement tries to give the appearance of this but is actually sponsored and coordinated by an external actor. We’ve seen a lot of this in US politics in recent years with people being paid by companies and groups to give coached or outright fabricated testimony at local government meetings.
    In this case, Russia is trying to convince European politicians that there is domestic opposition to support for Ukraine where none might exist.

      It's funny. One of the most common tactics employed by dictators for control is to keep their people poor. In Iran, economy is f*cked so fundamentally that most of the youth are unemployed. But there's a semi comfortable and safe source of income available: government jobs! But it comes at the cost of your actions and beliefs being monitored by the government, allowing them more control over your livelihood. These jobs will let you to barely scrape by and survive, it's by no means a guarantee of a stable future, meaning you'll be in deep shit again without it.
      Which is why our people are sick of them, the current regime. So much dissatisfaction, so much rage, it makes for a perfect Mossad operator :) They reach out online, perhaps by monitoring your internet activity indicating your sympathy to their cause (happened to an acquaintance, cheap vpn data monitoring), offering good salary and citizenship. A chance at escaping this sh*thole? How can one resist? :) A few of em just killed Haniyeh.
      Isn't this an spectacular display of their plans backfiring, and a nice instance of your opinion's validity?

      Having brought my countrymen to their knees, the Mafia triumvirate of the KGB, Party and Army moved on to conquer neighbouring countries. Today they are busy in your country, in your home town. They have stated openly that it is their dearest wish to do to the world what they have done to my country. They make no secret of it.
      I spent thirty years of my life on my knees. Then I got up and ran. This was the only way I could protest against the system. Are you surprised, my dear Western friend, that I did not demonstrate against the KGB while I was living there? Well, there is something which surprises me, too. In your own beautiful country, the KGB, that monstrous organisation, is hard at work at this very moment, the Soviet Communist Party is subsidising a horde of paid hacks and crackpots. Soviet Military Intelligence is sending members of its diversionary units to visit your country, so that they can practise parachuting on to your native soil. The aim of all this activity is, quite simply, to bring you to your knees.
      -Suvorov V. Inside the Soviet Army
      "I want to warn Americans, As a people, you are very naive about Russia and its intentions. You believe because the Soviet Union no longer exists, Russia is now your friend. It isn't, and I can show you how the SVR [formerly KGB] is trying to destroy the U.S. even today and even more than the KGB did during the Cold War."
      -Spymaster, double agent and Russian defector Sergei Tretyakov
      America has been penetrated by Russian spies. The American mass media, politics, education and business have been "influenced" by Russian agents. There are those who are so damaged within themselves, that they seek the destruction of their own country. And so, the problem of confronting Russia's war preparations entails a larger problem. It is a problem we cannot deal with. It is the problem of a large and emotionally committed fifth column of deluded individuals. Poisonous ideas have wormed their way into our system, so that the enemy's ideology has become the catechism of the coming generation.

      The water turned out to be _not_ contaminated.
      It is perfectly possible though that the holes in those fences are in fact part of an operation to spread fear, uncertainty, and doubt. Being in possession of a wire cutter isn't very suspicious and using it to cut a hole into a fence would be much less risky for an operative than actually entering the facility and using chemicals or biological agents (which have to come from somewhere, means to get them is very suspicious) to actually contaminate the water source, while still having an effect.

    Kappy you are missing a very important piece of information about the Russian defector Kuzminov…When Kuzminov flew his helicopter into Ukraine he had two Russian soldiers in his helicopter. Both were not aware of his plan and when they realized that they had landed into Ukraine they tried to run away but Ukrainian forces caught them and killed them. So Kuzminov didn’t just “steal” a helicopter, his actions got two of his comrades murdered. So if I’m the relatives of those two innocent Russian soldiers who were killed due to a traitor…I would want some kind of justice.

    This covert kinetic campaign is more concerning than any battlefield escalation. A violent action by state agents on foreign soil can be considered an act of war.

      Yes, but the thing is: Nobody is interested in an actual hot war with Russia. So unless Russian operations reach a point where they create significant political pressure for a military response, they will be accepted.
      Those btw works in both directions: While the official stance of NATO is to not send troops into Ukraine, it is very likely that special forces from NATO countries are present there, yet Russia hasn't used this (yet) to justify direct military action against those countries, even though "being at war with NATO" is a central myth of Russian propaganda.

    In September 2018 there was an explosion at a Rheinmetall facility just outside of Cape Town, South Africa. Eight employees were killed. It was apparently caused by a "failure to conduct the risk assessment when installing a new iris valve which is deemed as the modification by the employer”. Local authorities decided not to prosecute Rheinmetall, and the Dept of Labour decided not to make their report on the incident public. In November 2021 a fire broke out at the same facility . Fortunately nobody was injured. Apparently it was caused by an electrical fault in a light fitting, which caused melted material from a light fitting to fall onto and ignite stored material. Although the facility is still in operation, there is a groundswell of local negative sentiment towards the facility and calls from various parties to shut it down. Coincidence? I think not!

    I think the characterization in the video of the leaked secret call in Germany is a bit inaccurate.
    Basically, it seems that one participant, who was in Singapore at the time, used a compromised computer, allowing the Russians to record him (as implied by some random Windows system sounds being very present in the leaked video). Importantly, it seems that the Russians only accidentally stumbled upon the "juicy" information about Taurus. Also, (at least officially), the decision not to send Taurus was already made at that time (although I suppose one can argue that this made it more difficult to publicly reverse the decision at a later date). Also, the German defense minister made a public statement in protection of the involved soldiers, with the implication that he is strongly against "sacrificing his best men to manipulative Russian games", so importantly: The 'hacked' call likely had no detrimental effect on German support for Ukraine, as all official statements are very clear on that.
    There are also some other interesting, although, minor details. Specifically, it appears that the situation was not the result of one "single major slipup", but instead a combination of multiple, but by itself rather minor, slipups:
    - Someones notebook was apparently compromised (very likely the person in Singapore).
    - The call itself only had the classification of "confidential" rather than "secret", so overall relatively few precautions against (potential) hacks were done. As in: There might be some issues with the guidelines on what to classify as "secret" and what as "confidential" (but since the talk did not include any *actually* sensitive information, it wasn't necessarily bad judgment to classify the call as only "confidential")
    - There might have been some usability issues with the encryption software (and perhaps some security shortcomings as well, but that part is unproven, or not public knowledge, afaik - imho most people who blamed the software were just looking for something to blame).

    At the risk of saying something unpopular, it seems fair that any nation should have an opportunity to destroy weapons that are being sent, to be used against that nation. I mean, has the USA ever faced charges in an international criminal court for its actions against the "Ho Chi Minh Trail?" Same thing, isn't it? The USA hit the Ho Chi Minh trail in Cambodia and Laos a LOT harder than Russia is hitting any stash locations in Europe.
    Bottom Line - It was fair game for the USA to try to disrupt the flow of weapons and soldiers along the Ho Chi Minh trail, even when that trail was outside of Vietnam. It's fair game for Russia to try to disrupt the flow of weapons sent to be used against Russia. Anything else is hypocrisy!
    edit - I don't actually support Russia. I just HATE hypocrisy and when it comes to war, there's a LOT of hypocrisy going around. For example - At the end of WWII, only Germany and Japan had to face ANY kind of repercussions for war crimes. Even though the USSR, the USA and the UK were up to their necks in the blood of innocents, having knowingly committed numerous war crimes against the Germans/ Japanese, no one ever had to face any accountability for their actions.
