    They might but at least right now that doesn’t seem like the main trigger for this event.

      I don’t know if it needs to be a main trigger. I’m not a big fan of those sorts of analyses. I’m looking for what the consequences are if this particular event a) was foreknown by North Atlantic strategic command and b) what opportunities the foreknowledge would afford North Atlantic interests, especially if there are North Atlantic operators inside the event.

        Of course. My analysis is nowhere near comprehensive but I just think we don’t know enough yet to really go further without heavy speculation.

          I think the speculative hypothesizing is valuable because it can help us look for corroborating evidence or invalidating evidence. The speculation would need to be focused on an analysis of interests served, not merely hearsay or what is reported, but rather a material analysis of who benefits and how.
