Now this is going to be good for relations between Russia and Ukraine…
This incident triggered a thought in me…
Lately it seems that state run piracy is the latest capitalistic trend…
Iran tankers, British tankers, Russian tankers, tanker this and tanker that. Makes good distraction for the masses. Kinda like racism, sex crimes and many other sins of humans. Exploit stuff and keep people looking the other way and or try to start a war at the same time…
I guess can’t fight them, lets join them?
Piracy the new hot thing. Very much the late-capitalist style here!
