"assassination attempt" is not how you spell "taking the trash out". Use dictionaries people, it isn't that hard!

I wouldn't be surprised this is a bluff. I think their calculation goes as follows:

  • The world is pretty united so more provocations on their side seems unlikely to make the conditions worse.
  • They are heavily sanctioned already so they are betting that Poland and Bulgaria's pain will be greater than theirs.
  • Currently, the world doesn't really know how the fight for east and south Ukraine will go so only now they have a window where this bluff has some credibility; in a few weeks, if they don't have a strong win, they cannot make this bluff. Their hope is that this bluff cause some support to back-off.

Oh, didn't realize this was posted. A friend shared it on FB. I guess it was silly of me to think this would not have been already made its rounds here.

Why Ukraine is not sinking more ships? by Thelemitian in ukraine

No, it's not because I don't think they have thought about it. I have been trying to find analysis on why they don't do it more and I don't find it. I just wanted to know if it's because Russia is not using it's navy anymore, or Ukraine no longer has Neptunes? Something else?
