We are 1536 days into the Ukraine war, and Ireland is still helping the Russian weapons factories with raw materials.

@SamsenBdRi @Nairamtrab @samueljohnson @connynasch @randahl ”Fortunately, our capital outlay has been handsomely offset by the result and sale of armaments and missiles. You will note, that we have supplied both to rebels and government forces, on an equal basis. In matters of death, SPECTRE is strictly impartial.”

The Russian production of aluminum used in the drones that kill civilians in Ukraine is made possible by the raw material alumina from Irish company Aughinish Alumina, which is owned by Russian company Rusal.
Irish authorities need to take over that factory Monday morning.

@randahl why to seize the company, the company didn't do anything illegal. It literally says in the text that the product is legally exported to Russia.

@SamsenBdRi @Nairamtrab @connynasch @randahl This is simplistic. There isn't a country in Europe that isn't trading with Russia either directly or indirectly. Some are importing hydrocarbons. Some are exporting goods via 3rd parties in Turkey and elsewhere. Anyone would think Ireland was exporting weapons. It isn't. Alumina is also used for other things. The Irish govt will take action if and when EU sanctions include alumina. So far that hasn't happened.
@samueljohnson @SamsenBdRi @Nairamtrab @connynasch @randahl Everyone standing around and waiting for each other to acts is the same as complicity. Acting in concert is better, but every country needs to act even if the others don’t.

@randahl Yeah, too many power hierarchies favor war and death, as opposed to its opposite.
Does anyone believe in evolution anymore?

The problem would be comprehensively resolved if the EU were to carry out its work thoroughly. Nevertheless, the local workers and people would still be adversely affected—because all those in positions of responsibility failed to act with foresight and human dignity.@SamsenBdRi Those 2000 jobs... you know what, fuck them. The rest of the EU is ramping up a large build-out of new energy infra; if they can't find a use for aluminum in that then I have to question whether they're being honest.

or the powerlines of the factory needs a visit from some ole lads that were good at explosives in more turbulent times of Irish history...
That's an assinine, and thoughtless comment thats betrays a simplistic and misguided understanding of Irish history. Be better.
