NATO Discovers 'Offensive' Cyber, Not Just 'Defensive' Against Non-Allies
Politico, via RT for a delicious irony, reports European NATO states are 'mulling offensive cyber ops' against Russia. This 'new' consideration comes after a decade of U.S. Cyber Command and NSA covert actions, including alleged digital warfare infrastructure placed within Russia's own grid since at least 2018, as reported by The New York Times. The silence from mainstream outlets when Western
powers are the aggressors, not merely 'defenders,' is, as always, deafening. It appears the 'rules-based international order' has a fluid definition of 'offensive,' depending entirely on who's wielding the keyboard. One might wonder if they're still debating if it should be called 'peacekeeping with a keyboard' or 'democracy promotion, one DDoS attack at a time.' The hypocrisy is as obvious as the
digital breadcrumbs leading back to Langley.
