I'd imagine you'd be labeled a terrorist and no, you won't even get a trial. If you like the ideal of life in jail, that's one way for sure.

- notatoad 7y agoMy memory of the Black Sea spoofing attack was a lot of speculation that the Russian government was behind it. Consequences that deter an individual (like life in jail) don't necessarily deter state actors.
- bdamm 7y agoThis is, I think, the essential definition of a "state actor". The actor is operating on behalf of a state that will shield that actor from most if not all consequences of their actions.
- GuB-42 7y agoWhy wouldn't you get a trial? If you caused enough damage and deaths you will get life in jail, maybe even death penalty. But only after a pissed off jury declares you guilty. The reason for Gitmo, terrorist claims, etc... is because there are complex international matters that make prosecution difficult. But if you killed people during a malevolent act, you are a criminal and will face justice. There is nothing complex about that, especially if your are a US citizen on US soil.

Trump is not any different but at least he didn't lie about it... sorry for telling the truth, HN Democrats...
