I don't think I've ever heard of water being used for mine clearing, I wonder if anyone does that

taqueso posted:I don't think I've ever heard of water being used for mine clearing, I wonder if anyone does that 2 issues immediately stand out: 1. it probably takes a lot of water to move mines, especially if they're not just sitting on the surface. if you don't get a lucky rainstorm, you'd need to diverting a creek or river in order to clear a tiny area, or haul a lot of very heavy water to clear an even smaller area 2. this doesn't defuse the mines, it just... relocates them. instead of somebody blowing off their leg in a field, it's somebody at the edge of the river stepping on a mud-covered mine who's blowing off their leg. And it looks like, historically speaking, water + mine fields = bigger headaches for everyone, though again that's uncontrolled flooding and not deliberate mine clearing: https://www.hrw.org/legacy/backgrounder/arms/mines-moz.htm https://www.undp.org/content/undp/en/home/presscenter/articles/2014/05/20/undp-flooding-unearths-landmine-danger-.html

I figured the clearing party would only need a path through for war, rather than clearing in peacetime, but that is a good point

Feels like a perfect way to cause unrest in the country.

OhFunny posted:https://twitter.com/business/status/1259674286920552448?s=19 I think this is an insane thing that will absolutely be the start of unrest in the country, the only reason why saudi arabia has been internally stable for so long was primarily that in general peoples material lives was OK, with these moves the government has actually severely undercut people's standard of living, add on top of that is that the small businesses are being collectively wiped out, and that essentially Vision 2030 is dead beyond saving. The triple threat of losing the war in yemen, the internal collapse of the saudi economy and the end of Vision 2030 essentially means that all of the main pillars of MBS's support (beyond social reforms) has been destroyed, I genuinely think that now several princes will start making moves and that MBS will go on a paranoia murder spree and that people will genuinely start boiling. Or maybe nothing happens and we all just suffer quietly lol. Anyways, interesting times ahead.

Jose posted:so ignoring everything else about the war in yemen being a massive war crime aren't land mines a war crime and banned? like i know it doesn't matter because the US and UK back saudi arabia doing whatever The Ottawa Treaty bans anti-personnel mines, but allows for the use of anti-vehicle mines, mines that only detonate on command, and mines that have self-destruct/self-deactivation features. The UK is party to the Ottawa Treaty, and the US is not, and Saudi Arabia is not. In 2014, the US under Barack Obama began implementing its own internal policy that would have made it compliant with the Ottawa Treaty even if it never ratified the treaty itself (with an exception for the use of land mines in the Korean Peninsula). That policy was rescinded by Donald Trump in January 2020.

U.S. to Remove Patriot Missile Batteries From Saudi Arabiaquote:The U.S. is removing two Patriot missile batteries from Saudi Arabia and two others from the Middle East, along with dozens of military personnel who were deployed to the region following a series of attacks on the Saudi oil facilities last year, according to several U.S. officials. The attacks were part of hostilities the U.S. has blamed on Iran that took place over several months. Hmm interesting... The stated reason is with Qassem Soleimani dead and COVID-19 wrecking the country the threat from Iran is reduced.

With the Patriots removed the Houthis will have an easier time taking out Saudi refining capacity again, which means oil prices can go back up in a V shaped recovery. 4D CHESS
