    If true they cut off Internet to themselves, some powerful Arab neighbors, and Mumbai. Seems like a spectacularly stupid move. The bar is low for these idiots and yet they keep finding ways under it.

        I called you a genocide lover for this comment

        So much for the we support Gaza lies.

        And this comment

        Go protest Hamas and tell me how far that gets you

        And some comments insulting Aaron Bushnell’s sacrifice that have since been removed by a mod.

        Also, you didn’t post that link, you just commented on it with that bullshit above, but it doesn’t seem like accuracy is too important to you.

        I’m also happy to be called an asshole by you. I’ve seen what you like.

        I still haven’t seen independent confirmation of the cable cutting from a non Israeli source, nor have I seen indications of a cut line on any of the looking glass servers I’ve checked. This bit is important, because we should be able to independently see the results of a cut sea cable.

        Like, if jpost said the moon exploded, you should be able to go outside and see it the moon exploded yourself.

        EDIT:

        Or how about this comment:

        Nope. Wrong continent for that. Now if he was on active duty in the IDF you would have an argument.

        in response to:

        I truly beleive that this falls under sacrificing yourself to save lives

        About Aaron Bushnell.

        I called you a genocide lover because you are actively cheerleading genocide, and doing so in threads about a person that self-immolated in protest of the active, intentional genocide Israel is committing.

    You don’t fuck with the internet. It’s where we get our porn and pirated movies.

    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    Four underwater communications cables between Saudi Arabia and Djibouti have been struck out of commission in recent months, presumably as a result of attacks by Yemen’s Iranian-backed Houthi rebels, according to an exclusive report in the Israeli news site Globes.

    The successful targeting of the four cables, which are believed to belong to the AAE-1, Seacom, EIG, and TGN systems, marks a serious disruption of communications between Europe and Asia.

    Most of the immediate harm will be absorbed by the Gulf states and India, Globes said.

    The Europe India Gateway (EIG) cable system connects southern Europe to Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Djibouti, the UAE, and India.

    Yemen’s Iranian-backed Houthi movement, which is not the internationally recognized government of the Arab country but which controls its most populous segments, has been attacking international trade for months, proclaiming solidarity with Palestinians as Israel wages war against Hamas in the Gaza Strip.

    The United States, United Kingdom, and allies have begun in recent months to take offensive actions against the Houthis in response to attacks, but the missile, helicopter, and underwater drone assaults on merchant ships have continued.


    The original article contains 220 words, the summary contains 184 words. Saved 16%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!
