Steal some of the oil.
Replace it at correct stoichiometric ratio with ammonium nitrate or some other powerful oxidiser.
Attach a detonator and tracking device to the ship.
Don’t tell the crew.
Let the crew go free.
When the ship reaches its destination, detonate.
Halifax explosion, round two.
I should maybe add that I don’t think this is actually a good idea.
I can just see that it’s scientifically possible, and I enjoy constructing scenarios like this.
But to those who are riding Putin’s dick, just know that these are the things the West could do, but chooses not to. And the fuck you to all buyers of Russian oil still stands. I don’t care how poor they are.
“…these are the things the West could do, but chooses not to.”
Yeah, the West does whatever TF it’s done in Afghanistan, Iraq, West Asia, whatever France has done in Africa.
“fuck you to all buyers of Russian oil”
You mean like the US and EU? What do u think happens to the Russian oil once it’s refined to actual useful oil?
The US and EU might buy a little, but most of it is being bought by China, India, and Africa at a steep discount. As I’m sure you know.
Everybody buying Russian oil deserves scorn, even if they are living in the EU or the US.
Afghanistan and Iraq were terrible mistakes. And many (most?) NATO states had nothing to do with Iraq.
Not that it matters right now.
I’m talking about Russia’s imperialism right now.
Throughout the deeply stupid and shameful invasions of Iraq and Afghanistan, and this is true, the US never detonated a cargo ship sized bomb killing ten thousand people in a busy port city just because they bought sanctioned oil.
You realize that a lot of Russian oil gets “laundered” and then imported to the EU? So you would likely blow up an EU port, which is like a double Christmas and birthday gift to Putin.
It would probably blow up the port doing the laundering, which is unlikely to be happening in the EU.
But it would even more likely blow up an Indian or Chinese port.
It doesn’t matter.
Like I said, I think this is a really bad idea.
Mainly because it is collective punishment, and almost all of the thousands of victims would have had nothing to do with their corporations’ and their governments’ decision to buy that oil.
They also pump oil from ship to ship while at sea. It is said that this ship in particular also was involved in such maneuvers, which of course are highly dangerous and can easily result in oil spilled.

Fuck you, whoever would buy Russian oil.

Oh yeah, it’s just fun to imagine murdering a bunch of civilians, who have absolutely no say in whose oil just sailed into their harbour. Disgusting.
Would you rather buy Saudi oil? American oil? Yeah, like that’s any better.

Lol first of all thats not true, please post any source and try to group by EU, China, India and Africa.
And what about the other point? Does Russia also need western democracy? Is that before or after Greenland?
Okay Bucha pillager.
I don’t give a fuck how Russia is run as long as they stop trying to steal land.
Afghanistan and Iraq were terrible mistakes. And many (most?) NATO states had nothing to do with Iraq. Not that it matters right now. I’m talking about Russia’s imperialism right now.
Spoiler: Russia did the same thing in .ost of those regions, too.
Hell, they just did a speed run of Afghanistan, before we did… hence the nickname “Graveyard of Empires”.

Last year I read that Italian oil refineries were refining Russian oil. Anything for a profit for some businesses.
