From the article.

This gradual strategy bypasses traditional deterrents. Since the 1998 nuclear tests, both nations have relied on mutually assured destruction to prevent escalation. But water pressure sidesteps that logic. It destabilizes without triggering alarms. The floodgate becomes a weapon.

It is a form of statecraft that undermines without alerting, bleeds without blasting. Delhi no longer needs tanks or missiles to inflict damage. A dam valve will do.

Except, this doesn't sidestep the mutually assured destruction at all. The alarms on this issue were triggered long ago, as it's a predictable strategy.

Pakistan specifically does not have a "no first strike" doctrine instead opting for "full spectrum deterrence" with the aim of preventing a wider war all together with heavy implication from officials that attempts to control their water supply would be considered an act of war and fall in line of their "full spectrum deterrence" policy.

If India chooses to play the water game, it's no different than choosing to play any other game of "nuclear chicken", and India should know this.

"...in my european grocery store if it says honey, its honey.”

He clearly speaks from his american expirience

‘We knew there were counterfeit products on the market, but we are shocked by the scale.’

Florin noted, ‘The fake honey is not just a problem in Sweden but for beekeepers across the EU. The matter is with the EU Commission, and we do not know when a decision will be made. As long as the EU does not approve the tests, we do not have the right to remove the products from grocery store shelves.’

The OP article that their comment was in response to was about a widespread issue of fake honey in Europe. You don't hear about fake stuff in Europe because you'd rather ignore the evidence literally right in front of you to keep your EU superiority complex alive.

The EU is far from immune to the basic forces of capitalism.

Lol. You just said

"i assume you are american? in my european grocery store if it says honey, its honey."

In response to someone's comment about fake honey being in stores under the aforementioned article which is about fake honey in stores in the EU.

You completely ignored the article to go for a smug EU head own but owned yourself by ignoring the article. But doubling down is objectively hilarious so please continue to do so.

Man if only we had an organization with proper outreach and education to recruit people like this to the mass cause and not have them be lost to adventurism.

You didn't read the article it's literally about fake honey in the EU

The matter is with the EU Commission, and we do not know when a decision will be made. As long as the EU does not approve the tests, we do not have the right to remove the products from grocery store shelves.’

Swedish grocery retailers have contacted their honey suppliers, but the suppliers argue that according to the currently approved testing methods, the products are classified as honey, so they do not plan to change their inventory. Martin Andersson, responsible for trade policy at Swedish Grocery Retail, stated, ‘We would like to change the current testing methods if they are not effective, but we must wait for the EU’s decision on the accreditation of DNA tests.’"

Always great to see smug EU heads own themselves accidentally.

My only rule is that I won't pirate it if I would otherwise buy it and not do without it. Either way they make no money from me, but sometimes after pirating I'll want to actually buy it.

Yeah, but they've had a lot of success despite that.

"cold blooded murder of a Jewish couple" is a very strange way of saying "targeted assassination of 2 ambassadors for the Israeli genocide state one of which being a former IDF Soldier and a Christian from Germany".

Like I said though, but even more assuredly, you know this is a dangerous conflation and do it intentionally. Zionism feeds on and thus encourages anti-Semitism.
