*How remarkable to see such a detailed, relentless, neighborhood by neighborhood, war on fossil fuels. #GrayZone

*It means that every moving car has to carry big fuel cans, meaning, an auto-destructive Molotov bomb inside its own trunk

*Greek shadow fleet caught fire accidentally. #GrayZone

As it happens, I’m quite sure you’re correct in this! She was previously unmasked as being intimately involved in the so-called “Integrity Initiative” by a number of journos including Cook in The #Grayzone & Craig #Murray in his piece “Beware the Cult of #Cadwalladr” in 2022! (https://www.craigmurray.org.uk/archives/2022/01/beware-the-cult-of-cadwalladr/)

“We know of course that Cadwalladr was an active participant in the Integrity Initiative, the covert #MOD and #FCO funded programme to place articles by journalists in the media setting out the security services narrative. The Institute for Statecraft, which runs the #IntegrityInitiative, is indeed a ‘contractor to the security services’”

She’s recently set up “The Nerve” with a bunch of her ex-Observer mates. They’re currently hammering away very hard at Farage!

I’m conflicted! I approve of her exposures on Palantir, assorted Tech Bros + Farage … but her alleged role in amplifying security state narratives is worrying to say the least!

Cable Retriever (GB) confirmed on dynamic positioning hold off Tamsui, Taiwan, 8h+ on station as of 5:34 UTC today.

Coordinating with Ile d'Aix (FR), reported on station since May 9, per open sources.

Both repairing the Taiwan-Matsu No.3 cable, damaged in April by a Chinese salvage barge.

This is what the infrastructure war looks like.

Of course, one can safely assume there is nothing strategically noteworthy about repeated disruptions to critical communications infrastructure in one of the world’s most contested theatres. Merely an unfortunate sequence of maritime coincidences.

*Imagine choosing to wear one of these shirts in one of the numerous areas of the planet where everything you might touch, is, in fact, being destroyed #GrayZone #bandmerch

*It's like a heavily armed, murderous "Iron Curtain" that's been divided, distributed and scattered into autonomous, flying curtain-bits, a curtain like a vast spiderweb, a poisoned lace #GrayZone

*It's a "special military operation" where the dwindling supplies of exhausted soldiery scarcely see each other, but the skies are saturated with literal millions of satellite-guided, flying televisions with grenades and mortar shells. #GrayZone #DroneWall *Next step? "AI Inside," obviously

The South China Sea

In December 2024, the Philippines’ new navy chief suggested that the Philippines’ military could adopt its own “gray zone” operations in the South China Sea (SCS) to counter those used by the People’s Republic of China (PRC). This statement came in response to an incident in which the Chinese Coast Guard (CCG) fired water cannons and blocked a Philippine patrol

In the most recent incident, a Togolese-flagged cargo ship with Chinese backing, the “Hongtai,” allegedly severed the third Taiwan-Penghu submarine cable. This has raised concerns about how to defend against these “gray zone” threats to critical infrastructure.

How Israel uses its own civilians as human shields while assaulting Gaza

* Why has Israel placed its military HQ in a civilian area?

* Why do its civilians also serve as soldiers for much of their lives?

* Why are "IDF" bases constructed next to kibbutzim?
