The article is the threat? Or the actual buildup of military assets?

- azernik 11mo agoThe leaks that led to the article
- Thorrez 11mo agoLeaks about a military buildup are only possible if there's an actual military buildup. Unless the leaks are false. Is there any indication the information is false?
- azernik 11mo agoMilitary buildups can also happen without leaks. Leaks can be a strategy to turn a military buildup into political/psychological leverage.
- Thorrez 11mo agoThe strategy could be buildup + leak. The leak by itself isn't the strategy unless it's giving false information. The buildup requires much more effort than the leak. So in the buildup + leak strategy, the vast majority of effort goes to the buildup, not the leak.
