#CzechRepublic police arrested two morons posing as pro-Palestine “Earthquake Foundation” who burned LPP factory producing drones for #Ukraine. Another arrest was also made in Warsaw #Poland in relation to this case.
The group was previously unknown, their website was set up a week ago and they claimed the reason for the attack is LPP “producing weapons for Israel”. The attack was also quite professionally planned and executed.
However, LPP never produced any drones or other weapons for Israel which suggests the saboteurs were misled by #Russia special services who have a history of such operations in EU, including blowing up a whole ammunition depot in 2014. The attack on LPP did not interrupt drone production, which was done in another compound, but it did impact manufacturing of optical
In any case, the detained morons are now facing up to 20 years in prison for terrorism charges. Whatever Russians promised them - evacuation or safety - they dumped them as always.

I specifically wrote “never produced any weapons or drones for Israel” and this is the case.
In 2023 Elbit and LPP announced creation of “center of excellence of support of UAV manufacturing, lifecycle and training”. That means technical support, possibly call centers or something like that, not manufacturing.
Per your logic, the next step of GRU-inspired “Palestine supporters” would be to start killing Czech employees working at LPP, wouldn’t it?

in reply to kravietz 🦇 • • •They're Israeli (genocide convicted, warmongering, children torturing war criminals mind you) collaborators and should be boycotted, shunned, and divested from.
If it's advanced tech industry and jobs they want to develop in CZ which the article you referenced seems to herald, I'm sure they could find other tech companies to collaborate with. But they don't, which says a lot.
The operation was carried out at night, nobody was hurt. They should've burnt the other facility too.

Would you say the same about all Russian (genocide convicted, warmongering, children torturing war criminals mind you) collaborators in Europe?

in reply to kravietz 🦇 • • •Russian: genocide convicted? I must've missed some ICJ ruling
Israel-Palestine =/= Russia-Ukraine
I'm sure we could dig up a lot of condemnable reprehensible Russian deeds in the war, but these two cases are clearly not equivalent.

There’s an ICC arrest warrant on Putin in relation to war crimes issued even before Netanyahu.
So, your position is that collaborators of Russian military industry in Europe should be protected?

in reply to Allegro con Fuoco • •In ideal world you would only cooperate with sane-minded people who are not oppressing/killing anybody.
There are no doubts though that we are communicating using stuff built in China, collaborated with US and being delivered with trucks fueled by Qatar or Saudi Arabia.
We are not living in ideal world and if the company cooperates with someone who helps defending Ukraine, I consider that good news.
All the war crimes should be punished though, regardless of attacker origin, that's for sure.
