I was talking about this with someone today, and pondering what would happen if a private Ukrainian citizen had decided to deliberately fuck up an American military action, and what the American response would be.

The closest I could think of was Julian Assange, a non-US citizen who leaked a bunch of US military info and probably somewhat fucked up whatever they were up to at the time, or at least drew more attention to it than they would have liked. They’re currently trying to extradite him to the US for “conspiracy to commit computer intrusion” and who knows what they’ll do to him when that inevitably gets pushed through. I guess Chelsea Manning’s treatment is probably some indicator for that too.

So anyway, I expect Elon Musk will probably be extradited to Ukraine and spend a year or so in solitary confinement there right away. Maybe hide in an embassy for a few years first?
