    It’s also how you destroy the environment of the Niger River Delta.

    You want to take out the pumps, not the pipelines.

    (Calm down NSA, I’m saying this purely in jest)

      I get what you’re saying, but there’s practical considerations. There’s just too many pumps for that to be feasible. Only a couple pipes though.

        On the other hand, if you blow up all the pumps, it takes more resources to replace those than it would to simply repair a couple pipes.
