There's a pretty good chance whoever ordered it didn't put it on their tax return, even though it was a business expense. Quite hard to know what they spent. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
While correct "more than 35 tons" is massive, it is a huge blow to whoever is behind it.
​
Logistics for shipping 35 tons in a concealed way alone is expensive. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
nothing like a good snore. especially when you don't think of all the deaths and suffering that made you able to do that | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
Of course not, but the street value is also a totally made up number. What's the point of even using it, unless it's to fool people into thinking the war on drugs is going well? | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
It is indeed a huge amount of blow | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
It is a huge blow of a huge amount of blow | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
Yes it's a big loss for the gangs of course. But nowhere near a loss of several billion. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
I guess it's for people like me that have no idea what a kg of cocaine costs, to give us some sense of scale. Because of that number I can assume that this much cocaine is likely to be more than even a quite large room of cocaine users could use in a reasonable time frame. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
Basic math: 35×1,000×1,000×50 =1,750,000,000
50 = made up price | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |

Just check the 20 local telegram channels and you get a pretty good idea of the street value. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
Prices are gonna skyrocket I guess. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |

It goes for $80-100 a gram here in the states, I imagine it’s much much more expensive on the other side of the pond. But here, at least, 35t of coke comes out to a little over $3B street value. There’s no way they’re paying that much for it, though. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
Basic cocaine math.. in Colombia.
35x1000x1000x1 = 35,000,000
1 = normal street value here | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
You're missing the point, I'm not interested in the street value. I would like to know if losing 30 tons or something like that even slows them down. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
It's coming home | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
60-120€ here, or so i heard. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
How is it a made up number? | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
It's still over a billion dollars at $1k/ounce | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
But that's not what you said. You were complaining about street value being a made up number. That's what I answered. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
All those football players now go ... sh\*\* | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
Lmao. Yes bro. Techno is huge out there. Coke fuels party culture. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
A post about a big cocaine bust and no one did the 'cocaine number go down' comment chain yet? | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
Well there goes my dark market order | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
Meeeeeehhhh, not really. Coke is ubiquitous everywhere. Frankly especially in the techno and house scenes. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
Most big dealers have more than one supplier though, and most suppliers have enough goods or enough sources to wait for the next shipment without missing a sale. It also takes a lot of time until those 35 tons will reach the end user - production - smuggler - big supplier - small supplier - big dealer - small dealer - end user, or something like this. So the big suppliers have at least a few weeks to find another source and then it won’t have any effect on drug users. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
Yes and generally end user cocaine is still good quality, it’s not like cut to death like it’s reported sometimes. At the free drug checking place in my city, like half of the cocaine is 80%+, the rest is mostly decent, only like 1 in 20 samples is bad | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
Popular but it's a good hub
Ireland are the highest European consumer on average I believe used to be uk,
But it's highly popular everywhere but irelands your big money market for cocaine in Europe, high earning tech workers, and a culture, cocaine slotted into Ireland nicey as a product | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
That's gotta blow | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
As much as I support legalization of nearly all drugs, Coke is very evil; I've done plenty of different shit back in the day, but nothing impacted my self in such a horrible way (and others who used/abused it) like Coke (and more specifically, cocaethylene) & Alcohol for that sweet conversion going.
It's very euphoric, it's the reason why they say Coke & Champagne is the best breakfast; I really wish I hadn't ever got hooked on it; now climbing out of this addiction, fixing my life, my relationships, it's especially hard when you feel so vulnerable without your usual drug of choice for escaping that what you want to escape.
In the last 5 years it's popularity has somewhat increased significantly, seems like so many people use, even though they can't afford it (then even pay more than those who can, actually, afford their Coke), they still pay full retail price which is 100€/g, yet you get some frankenstein mix of chemicals with some, scrawny rocks of real Coke inside, the rest being fillers and designer drugs.
It's pathetic and I really wish it could somehow stop spreading this poison., | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
Bullish on cocaine futures. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
Looks like 150kg+ of leaves -> 1kg | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
Maybe like 5 years ago, at least in Canada. These days even the common party drugs are spooky, coke cut with everything from baking soda to fent, meth being passed as molly/x. I've talked to enough people who realized they fucked up when they end up cleaning their entire house at 9am after being up all night. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-16-06 |
35 TONS of cocaine…that’s 1,120,000 ounces or about nearly 9 MILLION “eight balls” of cocaine.
You could do about 300 eight balls per day for 80 years straight and you still wouldn’t get through it all.. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-16-06 |
Believe or not the U.S. consumes around 40% of the world's coke. Germany can't be close to that. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-16-06 |
Don’t worry folks, plenty of fentanyl available! | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-16-06 |

They only bully their weaker neighbors. A country that's a real threat, they pull the " hold me back, bro" stance. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
Looking at you Vietnam | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
That's illegal a country cant detain free people in a free waters. China wants to be the nazis of today's world | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
Rule By Law, not Rule Of Law is the PRC way, even if unilateral and unjust. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
China just loves pissing off their neighbors so when war breaks out Xi is surrounded by enemies and literally not 1 single ally.
It's a genius strategy. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
I mean there is the UN security council permanent members and there’s everyone else. The permanent members are not gonna be detaining vessels of each other cause they see the other of being able to retaliate whether militarily or economically, whether it’s US or China. They only deal with others who they know the other party is unable to retaliate | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
Then you won’t blame them if they decide to shoot down Chinese vessels that have resorted to playing pirate by kidnapping on international waters | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
As someone currently working with kids from all over the world, the worst are Americans.
It’s pretty bad.
Chinese kids are well educated and friendly. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
Amazing how china wants less American influence in that region of the world and yet they do stuff like this.
Guess this explains why Vietnam is trying to expand defense ties with the Americans. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
No they bully the US . What will the US do ? Not like the US spent decades systematically offshoring all its industries through China for short term profits
Oh wait it did.
The way China has claimed the spratlys and rapidly militarised them while the US told them no. Shows you exactly how afraid of the US China is lol (they do not care) and won’t needlessly escalate shit like detaining a US vessel for no reason.
They will continue expanding | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
No shit! They have been kidnapping Vietnamese fishermen ever since the 9-dash line announcement. Once returned, these fishermen continue on fishing trips like nothing happened. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
China tries to stop a US warship.
Good luck. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
Sooo legalised kidnapping...
They won't dare touch any western ship, its just the innocent fishermen from other SEA countries, operating within their own borders that need to be worried. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
I’m sure this will work out well for everyone | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
China doesn’t dislike America. They dislike America having influence in Asia. They want hegemony in their region. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
Agree. No excuse it is 2024, China use your words finally. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
Everybody is doing it today because that is literally the description of a social contract. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
You literally just described the principle that is the foundation of every civilization ever. Someone comes over to your house, makes the area around it really nice and safe, provides transportation services, and drops by to help if your house burns down, or the assholes in the cave next-door keep stealing your livestock, shit like that. In exchange, you agree to follow the rules they made up and if you disobey them, you have to go to time out.
It’s called social contract theory. It’s been around for about 400 years, give or take. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
Don't think their tactic of angering other countries in the region is helping | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
They continue to test international law to see which countries draw the line and where. If no one pushes back (primarily western nations), they’ll go full speed ahead. If they manage to get non-western countries to agree with them, they play the slow game with it.
Basically what happened with the artificial islands. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
How did that work out for the native Americans? | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
Of course it’s illegal. But China doesn’t see those waters as international (as set by UNCLOS), they claim pretty much the entire South China Sea as their territorial waters | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
China is actively trying to manipulate Russia and USA to have a war, China wants a damaged Russia so as to take land, resources the desperately need.. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
I am not saying what they are doing is right, just saying one doesn't need to imagine it, just read about it. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
they already are | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
Just for notes on more modern era incidents that the US has retaliated in both economic, diplomatic, and military ways. Some more public than others.
They’re still the 800 pound girls when it comes to consequences. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
Yeah but they going to poke the bear soon. This will allow them to justify their action with force and allow them to attack tiawan and claim lands by India etc expansion | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
>Sooo legalised kidnapping
In the rest of the maritime world we call that piracy | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
The difference is disgusting people and and small minds are the only ones that justify it in modern times. Kind of like what you're doing. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
Let’s not forget Israel’s attack on the USS Liberty, even going so far as to attack the lifeboats. Heinous but not surprising. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
So the open ocean is China’s personal territory? | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
The Chinese yes | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
Damn lol. Peter Zeihan was right. He’s been very adamant that international sea lanes are at high risk of succumbing to state-sponsored actions. The Iran is definitely sponsoring Houthi piracy in the Red Sea. That region is already impossible for companies to purchase insurance, since insurance companies have dropped coverage. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
When you’re an asshole you can only have flunkies, not friends | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
Should have just declared war on china for crashing into our plane and trying to make that our problem. Would have been a fast way to stomp out any concerns about them since we wouldn't even need to deploy boots on the ground win. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
The spy plane incident was different because the damaged American plane was forced to land at a Chinese airbase, they literally had the plane land on their soil.
China most definitely acts differently towards nations that pose more of a threat. For instance they would never shoot water cannons at US vessels like they do against the Philippines in the South China Sea even though US ships sail right by coral reefs China has turned into islands and then illegally claimed the surrounding area as their territorial waters. China screams at the American ships over the radio and the US vessels just ignore them and sail right ilon by.
There has been some incidents like where a Chinese vessel made a dangerous turn in front of a US destroyer but it's nothing like how they act towards smaller nations. China is most definitely less aggressive when the US is involved even if they still are to some extent. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
>Foreign ships that have illegally entered China's territorial waters and the adjacent waters may be detained.
This is unlikely to comply with the Right of Innocent Passage under the *United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS)* | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
It's piracy if civilian ships or boats do it. It's an act of war if a naval vessel does it. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
Using weaponized annoyance well short of violence they know would result in embarrassment. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
