Is it the Russians?!
Or the global warmers?!
If Russia had railway issues, we’d say they did it to themselves to send a message. But Germany wouldn’t do something like that.
Already exacerbated fears about infrastructure sabotage were dramatically underlined at the weekend when two apparently coordinated acts against the backbone system which controls train movements saw Germany’s railway network grind to a halt for several hours. Europe has been suffering such attacks, often attributed to actors of the ultra-left, for many years.
Backhaul communications cables concerned with the Germany Railway (Deutsche Bahn, DB) radio system, safety-critical equipment without which modern, tightly timetabled and high speed trains cannot safely operate, were “willfully and intentionally severed” on Saturday morning by people with “very precise knowledge of the railway’s radio system.” The two cables damaged were 340 miles apart from each other and cut simultaneously.
The impact of the sabotage on the fibre-optic cables was that trains both regional and long-distance were disrupted for several hours over the weekend. While the immediate disruption may be felt to be small, the attack nevertheless has been front-page news in Germany since, given the way in which it seriously underlines the vulnerability of critical national infrastructure. Just weeks before, the Nord Stream and Nord Stream Two undersea gas pipelines were — if reports are to be believes — blown up, severing a major route of importing energy for Germany.
As Die Zeit notes, German general Carsten Breuer warns in the aftermath of the railway cable cutting that much infrastructure — the networks that transmit power and data and underpin modern life not least among them — are extremely vulnerable to attack. He told the German press: “Every substation, every power plant, every pipeline can be attacked, can be a possible target… This is not about an enemy army with soldiers and tanks attacking our country [but] pinpricks in the population that are intended to stir up uncertainty and shake confidence in our state”.
Given the context of Europe’s present tousling with Russia over their land invasion of Ukraine this year, eyes appeared to have instantly turned to Moscow over the cause of the allegedly sophisticated sabotage of the rail network on Saturday. On Saturday, the German interior minister said the authorities had to “assume intentional acts” were behind the attacks.
The Telegraph reports the comments of senior Green Party MP Anton Hofreiter, who chairs a committee in the German Parliament, who said of the attack: “To pull this off, you have to have very precise knowledge of the railway’s radio system. The question is whether we are dealing with sabotage by foreign powers”, saying it was possible this attack may have been a “warning” to Germany from Moscow.
Yet official blame quickly moved on, with German police saying that while they still suspect a potential political motive for the coordinated strike on the rail network is possible, they did not suspect it was the work of a foreign power or an act of terrorism, Reuters reported.
This rail sabotage business is promoted by the global warmers all over the world.

There is speculation that the global warmers could be behind this attack in Germany.
The government actually endorses and promotes these weather hoax people, which seems pretty retarded.
