You don’t think that the claim that U.S. military conducted a covert raid on European soil to seize computer servers is an exceptional claim? I think you watch too many movies.

It's rare when I watch a movie.

"US military", "covert raid", "European soil", "seize", these are so many strawmen that you need to set up to make your point about it being an exceptional claim.

The US government, for national security reasons, with permission from Germany, taking servers belonging to a third party vendor would not be an exceptional claim.

I think you've been watching too many movies.

What little I saw early on, was not a ‘covert raid’. It referenced EUCOM, which has a full array of assets including intelligence, Military Police, and legal, and things work a bit differently in Germany due to the SOFA agreements.

None of this says the events suggested actually happened, but they do say that things don’t work they way you’d think.
