I've been holding on to a prompt because I thought it was a bit weird, but apparently we're shipping actual houses now, so here ya go:
Cujo/Wolf (Superboy's pet wolf, not Wulf)
I think it would be hilarious for Superboy to wake up one day and there's Wolf with a bunch of glowing puppies.
(As far as we know, both Cujo and Wolf are male dogs. But, one's a ghost and one was experimented on/is enhanced. The pups could also be adopted. I'm sure if there's one ghost dogs there are more out there somewhere.)
Of course, YJ is scrambling around trying to figure out what the puppies are and where they come from (without pissing off Wolf), when in pops Cujo.
At what point do they realize that Cujo isn't just another puppy and is in fact Wolf's (...let's go with) "mate"?
When Kid Flash makes one of the puppies start to cry and Cujo gets BIG.

DP x DC prompt
While on a walk with Cujo, Danny was captured by Vlad. Cujo knew he needed to get help his friend.
So he went to the colourful people that Danny kept talking about. Sadly, they started trying to capture him when he went into their floating home.
He got away but sadly he had no one to help him. Thankfully he ran into Krypto and the superpets.

Clone’s Best Friend
“Cute dog!” the girl says. “What breed is he?”
“Uh,” blinks Kon. "Are you asking what breed Superdog is?"
“Uh, duh?”
Well. She’ll have to forgive him his stunned expression, ‘cause he doesn’t usually run into other dog walkers on this path. This is, of course, because “path” is used in the loosest sense, the one that connotates direction and not tread ground, and the “walk” bit is entirely inapplicable, with all of them currently flying one thousand feet above sea level.
“Cujo’s a rescue,” she continues, swinging her feet in the sky, “so we don’t know for sure, but my sister thinks part husky, part shar pei. Half-and-half, like me!”
Cujo is also, apparently, half green and half glowing. He wiggles happily in a play-bow. It’s very cute, except for the way he’s the size of a small house.
Krypto’s tough, though. He barks and chases his new friend through cloud cover. Gamely, Cujo flees. They frolic in the chilly condensation, occasionally poking a head out before diving back in, like a fox in a snowdrift.
Neither of them see anything surprising about this. It’s all good fun. And, well. Krypto’s always been a good judge of character.
Kon turns back to the girl and gives her a megawatt smile.
“He’s Kryptonian. Like me. But he looks like a white lab!”

Ya'll remember Ace? Bat-hound?
No WAY Cujo became a Ghost and He did not.
Is he a little lost? Maybe. This is not his beautiful home. This is not his beautiful, maladjusted, Bat Family. Who are you people!? Where IS he!? This place is FAR to cheerful and green to be Gotham!
But he is Bat-Hound. A PROFESSIONAL. A HERO. He can handle this. He just has to track his humans down... through... whatever this is. If Krypto can fly, bless his mostly empty, hyperactive head, then so could he! It can't be THAT har-*Thwonk!*
.....no one saw that.
But what's this? A helpful young pup? Cujo you say. Ah, he too, was once a gaurd dog. Cujo, lad, he seems to be lost. Could you...? You WILL! Fantastic. But wait? You're worried about your Young Human?
*Bat Concern Rising* *Doggy eye squint*
WHY?
*cujo spills the frankly horrifying beans about Danny's home life*
.........ha ha, NOPE! We can be having THAT! He's coming too! Bruce LOVES young humans! Especially sassy ones. He'll adopt him in no time! You grab the older one's, I'll grab the baby. Then we can head home, yes? You'll love gotham! Plenty of scoundrels to chase!
Cut to the Bat family. Damian is training Titus in the yard. Rare sun-ish day. It's a cook out. The Kent's are over. When?
Titus and the Supers both perk up. You hear that? Somethings about to-
*reality RIPS* *Ace the Bat Hound, dead for over a decade, jumps through... THE SIZE OF A HORSE. He is holding a struggling small preteen girl in his mouth* *Splat*
He dropped her. Eeeeeeew! She is loudly protesting. There is a SECOND dog. Green. Two more teens, clearly related to the first. Dumped on Bruce's lawn.
Ace looks proud of himself. Shrinks to normal size and pads over. Plops down in front of Bruce like he'd never left, tail wagging. Still in costume. He's glowing.
The burgers burn on the grill. No one can bring themselves to notice or care. Damian is elated. Krypto is fly wrestling is bestest buddy. Bruce is having a nervous breakdown over his dead dog.
Clark is calling their co-workers and trying to STOP the nervous break down.
Lois is just feeding the strage kids the dogs brought. Asking some casual "I'm totally not an investigative reporter" type questions. Who wants chips? Have a towel.
Ace? Is a Good Boy. 🐶

Dc x dp idea 37
This is just a silly one
The box ghost is attacking the league. Dc is in a different dimension for this so they don’t have the proper weaponry. The ghosts are immune to standard magic and just turn intangible for any attack.
So over powered.
Danny is riding cujo like a horse. Cujo is in big guard dog mode. In comes Danny riding his dog just pointing a thermos at boxy and sucking him in.
Danny also has a cowboy hat on. And just tips it at them saying your welcome as cujo takes off.
Too bad either krypto, Titus, or Ace are there. Idk if there are other hero’s dogs. Those are just the ones i know.
When one of the dogs bark at Cujo. Cujo just goes back into puppy mode cause he wants to play now. He’s bored of being a horse.
This leaves Danny sitting on the ground in front of the league.

a rant/series of ideas
So I've posted these on SB before but to put it simply, the phandom is stagnant. The same ideas are repeated over and over again mixed up but too similar to tell apart. Over on ao3s dp crossover section I've noticed a ton of these stories are created after the author reads a prompt here so I figured I'd gather the posts I've made on SB and post them here in hopes those authors can see them. I'm just copy/pasting these so they will look weird as they were originally posted on SB and I can't be bothered to edit them.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
So yall know how d.c. crossovers are really common. Well I just had a small idea to add to the list of why heroes don't usually kill, batman especially. Obsessions can help make ghosts and few people are more obsessed than villains, the heroes know this and don't want to risk powering up their rogue gallery more, especially since hell is real and as we saw with deathstroke/slade it's easy to make deals and return. Just another angle to add for those crossovers. Last thing anyone wants is a ghost/demon empowered joker running around.
We have tons of danny phantom dc crossovers but not a single one has Cujo join the super pets for adventures. This is a crime that should be rectified immediately. Best pup should be allowed to play with Ace and Krypto and fight animal crimes.
What aren't there any stories where danny is in the marvels zombies storyline, or dceased, or blackest night, or even the new dc vs vampires storyline.
Why are almost all horror stories about him being tortured when there are perfectly good zombie apocalypses he can fight in. I'd love to see danny wield a black lantern ring and be in total control because he's already dead and as such doesn't need to eat hearts to gain power.
I'd love to see danny get bite by a vampire only for them to taste what's basically deadmans blood. We need less secret sibling, torture filled, betrayal fics and more danny pulling a doomslayer and fighting trigons armies when he invades.
Pariah Dark pulling amity into the gz would have gotten international attention just like cannon. Something that's brought up but never really explored are meta humans rights clashing with the anti ecto laws, I'd love to see the various magic users testifying in congress, debunking the fentons beliefs that ghosts aren't people and as such deserve the same rights as everyone else.
Also I'd love to see walker put in control of arkham, blackgate, or Belle reve. He'd have those places on lockdown, and the thought of the joker trying to escape only for walker to toss him back in his cell is hilarious to me.
All these DC crossovers but not one shows an alternate danny in the justice lords, injustice, or crime syndicate version of the league.
I'm tired of rereading the same stuff, let me read about an evil crime boss danny or one who rules over the GZ like how the justice lords rule earth, or one that sides with superman after metropolis gets nuked. So many alternate worlds, timelines, and dimensions to choose from and they always pick the same ones.
Forget JLU, YJ, or TT let me see danny in the justice league dark apocalypse war movie as a trigon possed Dan Phantom and have him fight Darksied
The infinite realms is so underutilized in the dc crossovers, and just the phandom in general.
You have an entire dimension that can take you any when and anywhere you want/don't want and you don't use it to let superman meet his parents before krypton blows up, or any other orphan superhero for that matter.
Hell you don't have to save his family, you can set up a stable time loop where this meeting is what convinced them to send him to earth rather then any of kryptons dying colonies.
Have Pandora meet wonder women, I don't think I've seen anything more then a passing reference about her in any dc stories to date. The 4 armed ghost of a Greek Goddess would absolutely be something the Amazon's would want to meet.
I'd love to see more stories exploring the factions in the gz like make up a rivalry between the far frozen and Atlantis before the yetis died out and less stories about Lazarus pits being ectoplasm, and Danny bring the lover/secret brother to the entire bat clan.
Give me poison ivy possed by Undergrowth or the joker being terrorized by the box ghost because joker gas doesn't work on the dead. Hell weather wizard/ any other weather villain teaming up with vortex would be fun. Or have technus hijack brainiac/amazo, now that be a good threat.
Let's see Danny put on the helmet of fate and fight klarion because he's not at the same level as the cosmic forces of order and chaos rather then the gz being some super dimension that John "I sold my soul to 30 devils, 10 gods, an angel and a fae" Constantine is too scared to touch. Pariah was powerful, but he ain't Darkseid, Trigon, Child, or Nekron powerful.
Let's see more, superheroes deal with ghostly shit rather then Danny runs away/moves to Gotham for the 30th time. Like lets say the flash has to deal with Kitty and Johnny joy riding in Central city but he can't touch them or freakshow stops in Gotham and kidnaps Jason since the phandom is obsessed with making him a halfa or halfa adjacent. So much potential and none of it explored!
So, yall know how the phandom likes to make ectoplasm an emotional conduit. Where ghosts either can feel / feed on emotions and ectoplasm can have emitions without being a ghost, usually when talking about the pit rage Jason has in the DC stories. Well, let's roll with that and add the Emotional Entities that the lantern corps use.
If ghosts feed on emotions then the lanterns are basically walking snacks, if they sense emotions then the lanterns are walking flash bangs, and if ectoplasm can have emotions then let's have some ghosts get lantern rings simply because they are emotions given physical forms.
Also, yall know how the Danny defeats pariah and becomes king stories are a whole thing, why doesn't that apply to Dan?
Rant/prompt ideas done for now but I have so many more. Let's bring some life back to this half dead phandom.

(short continuation to the prompt I wrote, which is linked below. I thought I was done with this, but then @victoria-has-no-secret and @bluerosefox had some ideas to incorporate into it. Screenshots of said ideas are also below but are sprinkled throughout the post too.)
(*) = Me building off of other ideas
TW: mentions of animal death
← previous
After the whole fiasco with the Justice League, Danny gets an idea. Not very many people actually know about Laika, at least from what he could see of the majority of the Justice League who had never learned about her. Although, to be fair, a lot of them come from different planets. Either way, it gives Danny the idea to create a YouTube channel starring Laika to teach the people of Earth about the pup.
The channel immediately garners attention from all around the world, and even winds up on a couple of news stations too! It grows so much that Danny decides to expand further than just Laika, but to the other things that were sent into space in the quest for knowledge: The space rovers as well as many other animals.
Laika even leads Danny to them as he ventures further into space with a specially made camera that can withstand traversing space and the differing atmosphereic conditions of other planets. He manages to find every single one of them, discovering that maybe Laika hadn't been as alone as he'd first thought as he watches and records her playing with the spirits (imprints?) of the rovers, chimps, mice, and many other animals haunting the endless void of the cosmos.
People back on earth are going wild with the knowledge that their hopes, thoughts, and feelings helped to give life to beings that had long been dead/stopped working. They have no idea what to feel about this new information except an amalgamation of pure awe, curiosity, joy, guilt, and sadness. They still mourned the loss of Laika, the rovers, and everyone before and after them, but knowing that their existence wasn't completely lost soothed an ache many didn't know they carried with them when they were there to witness the beginning of such astronomical leaps in technology.
To also know that out of the many stars shooting across the sky, one of them might be Laika happily racing amongst the stars with her friends brought many to tears. At every opportunity, they wished for the sweet pup's happiness and the continuing health of their own furry companions down on Earth with them. They also wished that upon the eventuality that they have to part with their companions that maybe a few of them would join Laika and her friends in stars to keep them company for many years to come.
Although many of these wishes were heard by Desiree, she refused to touch such hopeful and well-meaning wishes for fear of twisting them in unseemly ways, allowing them to form on their own. The other ghosts among Danny's rouges even made a deal with each other to not interfere or attack the town when Danny was recording his videos out in space.
It was beyond bad manners to interfere with another ghost's obsession, after all.

I'm gonna go cry some more. I've learned more about the progress of space exploration in the past couple hours than I probably should. This is the last thing I'm adding onto this prompt. If any of y'all wanna continue it, be my guest!
Notes:
(*) One more thing to add. Where are the ghost hunters/Guys in White during all of this? If they start making a fuss over Phantom and all the ghost animals, do they get a bunch of civilians raiding their government facilities and causing them bodily harm? What's happening with the Justice League? Are they sitting back and eating popcorn while all this goes down? Who knows. :)

It seems DC comics is making a Super Pets movie.
... this means I have finally found a superhero movie I want to be dark and gritty.

DPJL. Imagine if Cujo ended up joining the League of Super-Pets (Krypto, Ace, Jumpa, and Streaky).
Oh jeez of cujo joined the pet league shit would be lit. Cujo is a high energy boi! I'm not sure if he and wolf would really get along, wolf would probably be like an older brother to cujo since initially cujo is smaller than wolf.

Nome do elemento: Criptônio Número atômico: 36 Localizado no grupo 18 e no quarto período da TP, é um gás nobre cujo nome é derivado da palavra grega "kryptos", que significa oculto, escondido. Como características principais, pode-se mencionar que é um gás monoatômico, que dificilmente se liquefaz, apresenta um espectro de linhas verde e vermelha-alaranjada muito brilhante, e está presente na atmosfera na proporção de uma parte para 9.000.000, o que significa que a sua proporção entre os elementos presentes no planeta é bastante pequena. Pesquisas revelam a existência de criptônio no planeta Marte, na proporção de 0,03 p.p.m. #quimicafv #quimicaafavordavida🔝💜 #criptonio (em Uberaba, Minas Gerais) https://www.instagram.com/p/BxXYYF4HKXM/?igshid=131f5tngybipc

Was Krypto Jor-El's dog? Or did their family have another pet?
Because think about it. Thanks to Cujo, we KNOW animals with unfinished business or strong attachments stay behind. We ALSO know from nigh COUNTLESS videos on the internet that pets get REALLY attached to pregnant moms and by extention, the new pack members.
Krpton was an Alien planet. Just because SOME of the animals there looked similar to earth animals, doesn't mean ALL of them do. Nor does it mean they ONLY domesticated dog like creatures or cat like creatures. They could have anything from vaguely bear-like to fox-ish to small moose but with more teeth.
It was a completely different ecology.
And Jor-El? Him and his wife had a CHOICE to make. They had A pod. Singular. Tiny. Not a ship, not an escape pod, not even a refurbished shipping container. Just a pod with life support and all the information about Krypton they could fit. A guidance system that, gods willing, would see their son to a safe and sympathetic planet to be raised by kind people.
THEY couldn't even fit.
How in the gods name would a large pet? Even a mid sized pet. Let us assume, for this prompt, that being scientists of high position? Pays or allocates pretty well. They have the room. The resources. When they got married, Jor-El's wife REALLY wanted a cub or pup or what have you, of some large-ish animal breed.
The equivalent of an earth mastiff dog. Just an Absolute UNIT. Used to be gaurds and working beasts, now more athletic pets then anything. Known to be great protecters of Their People.
And well... Jor-El WAS already starting to notice some things that were making him Less Than Popular... probably nothing (he had naively hoped, at the time.) But better to have a Just In Case. Sure, honey. Let's get one!
And they LOVED Snookums.
Snookums ADORED them AND the baby! Kal-El basically NEVER left Snookums sight. He slept beneath Kal's crib. Followed them everywhere they went, when they were holding Kal. Planted himself like Kal's Sworn Protector as the baby drooled all over his fur. It was the cutest thing EVER.
But then?
No. Dear Gods No. Please... Please let him be wrong!
He's not. He never is. He is too careful with his calculations. To the point of near paranoia. Maybe they can stop it. If they DO something. Act IMMEDIATELY...
But...
Well, we all now how that story ends. Two people, standing on a launch pad, tears streaming down their smiling faces, trying to memorize the last moment they'll ever see their son. Praying this will be ENOUGH.
That they aren't trading one terrible death for another.
Watching their son disappear into the sky. Flying home as the ground groan as shakes, trees toppling and people screaming. Panicking. Dying pointless deaths that could have been stopped.
Walking into the home that should have been where they spent their whole live. Where, in a way, they WILL.
Knowing they won't grow old.
Sitting on the floor with their confused, frantic, pet as fire starts to light up the horizon. As the ground shakes violently on last, terrible time. Knowing the lethal heat will hit them before their ears ever register the sound.
It's Over.
But! Where is Snookum's Baby Kal!?
They are scared, confused, and everything is LOUD AND RUMBLY. Very Bad. Don't like that. Their ADULTS come back home. BUT NOT THEIR BABY. Where is Baby Kal?! Snookums is a GOOD Boy and a GREAT Protector. It is in his blood.
Something BAD is happening.
Has? Happened?
Everything is GREEN.
But that does not MATTER. Snookums can not REST. Can not stay here! They must Sniff and search and hunt! Look for Kal! Who is SMALL and needs to be protected! What if he is HURT? How will he SLEEP!? With no Snookums to cuddle for nap time!?
But the universe is large. And there is no smell in space. (Well, there ARE. But they are Stinky Gasses and those do not help Snookums.) So it takes lots and lots of time. Until! He meets a glowing blue dog!
A hopeful corgi? What is a corgi? Irrelevant! The hopeful one knows of Snookums' Kal! Oh, thank you small friend! You indeed DO give hope! We shall go at once and Kal shall be safe and with family once more!
Meanwhile? Danny? Wakes up to a sticky note on his forehead from Clockwork. "Bring Cujo with you to meet the Justic League"? What? WHY? He loves the pup, but Cujo has never behaved himself in a formal setting ONCE in his doggy LIFE. Danny is trying to make a good first impression!
But... Clockwork doesn't Post-It lightly...
Guess he's breaking out the doggy bow ties. Great. Wonder what THIS is about...
Four and a half hours later? Watching Cujo playfully wrestle with the ghost of what HAS to be a Kryptonian... gonna saaaaay.... Bear-fox? Which nearly TACKLED Superman, freaked the ENTIRE Justice League out, and nearly got him STABBED by Etrigon. Yeah. That was a good call.
Congratulations on your new ghost pet, Superman. No, he's not leaving. It just kinda happens sometimes. It's how Danny got Cujo. Wanna do pet playdates?

Pedra de Roseta
Como tratamos em posts anteriores, a informação é um fator determinante na guerra. Possibilita a um exército se antecipar aos movimentos do inimigo e a coordenação de batalhões. De fato, em uma guerra há uma busca incessante por informações. Os Aliados compreenderam isso quando executaram um dos maiores movimentos de fake news da história, espalhando dicas e informações enganosas sobre o desembarque das tropas na Europa entre os nazistas. O resultado foi um ataque surpresa, chamado Dia D, que possibilitou a retomada do território europeu das tropas alemãs.
O próprio desenrolar de uma guerra é uma disputa por informações, causada por informações. Além do Dia D, temos a Crise dos Mísseis em Cuba, desencadeada após aviões de reconhecimento americanos terem avistado armas nucleares soviéticas em solo cubano; a Guerra do Vietnã, onde o conhecimento das especificidades do território vietnamita garantiu a um exército composto por camponeses a vitória sobre o poderio Ianque; há também a interceptação de mensagens entre o governo cubano e os alemães, ameaçando um complô contra os EUA, uma das causa da entrada desta potência na Primeira Guerra; ou o trágico exemplo da Revolta dos Malês, onde o vazamento de informações sobre o movimento levou os rebeldes à condenações de morte, deportação e chibatadas.
Hans J. Morgenthau (2003), teórico das relações internacionais, definiu as ações de cada Estado como interesse em termos de poder. A nível da análise aqui pretendida, isto significa que o comportamento de uma nação leva em conta o ganho ou não de poder, visto por Morgenthau como forma de exercer controle. O vazamento de informações ameaça o poder de uma nação, pois coloca em xeque sua capacidade de exercer controle.
Por isso, a atividade de inteligência é usual de todo Estado, muito além dos contextos de guerra. Para Marco Cepik (2003), inteligência é a coleta de informações sem o consentimento ou a cooperação por parte dos membros da ação. Vai além da espionagem, foco de nossa análise.
Entender quais informações são essenciais é parte fundamental do trabalho de inteligência, tanto quanto as técnicas e processos utilizadas na obtenção de dados, como explica Cepik. Esse trabalho é ligado à ação de curadoria. Como apontam Saad e Bertocchi (2012), as representações de curadoria vinculam-se também à ação humana e referem-se às atividades de seleção, organização e representação de algo a partir de algum critério inerente ao indivíduo curador. Há também uma evolução conceitual que vincula o termo à atividade de mediação.
No entanto, a evolução da era digital representou um tal aumento da veiculação de dados que tornou-se necessário o uso de máquinas. Nas técnicas de guerra, o uso dessas máquinas resultou no computador caseiro, tão popular atualmente.
Surgimento da criptografia
Em seu sentido original, algoritmo significa uma sequência finita de passos utilizados para resolver um problema. Foge, portanto, ao entendimento comum que associa o algoritmo apenas ao digital. Gillespie (2018) compreende o algoritmo como procedimento
Os  algoritmos  não  são  necessariamente softwares: em  seu  sentido  mais  amplo,  são  procedimentos  codificados  que,  com  base  em  cálculos específicos,  transformam  dados  em  resultados desejados.  Os  procedimentos  dão  nome  tanto  ao problema  quanto  aos  passos  pelos  quais  ele  precisa  passar  para  ser  resolvido (Gillespie, 2018, p. 97)
Assim, o algoritmo, esse processo que leva à resolução de um determinado problema, funciona a partir das informações com as quais os alimentamos. Uma das atuações do algoritmo é sob o módulo da criptografia e da criptoanálise.
Há relatos do surgimento da criptografia desde o Egito. Em Esparta, os generais desenvolveram um mecanismo, chamado Licurgo. Consistia em dois bastões e uma tira de couro, onde se escrevia a mensagem horizontalmente. Para se descobrir a mensagem, era necessário enrolar o couro em um bastão de igual medida.
Criptografia deriva dos termos gregos kryptos, escondido, e graphein, escondido. Suas técnicas passaram de simples substituições de letras na mensagem, até mecanismos mais complexas. Foi na Segunda Guerra Mundial que o volume de dados e mensagens tornou-se tão grande que foi necessário o uso de máquinas para a codificação.
O exército nazista contou com a máquina de codificação Enigma, cujo código era quase impossível de ser decifrado. Mas, como sempre, a necessidade de se defender os interesses de cada nação leva os exércitos a melhorar seus aparatos. Para lidar com a Enigma, Alan Turing, do lado dos Aliados, desenvolveu a Enigma Bomb. Trata-se da primeira máquina de criptoanálise, com a função de quebrar os códigos estabelecidos.
Claro, a máquina também exerce a função de curadoria, ao lidar com uma mescla caótica de informações e, através de sua programação, selecionarem as informações relevantes a serem retransmitidas. Jurno e DalBen (2018), apontam como problemáticas do algoritmo sua falta de transparência. Mas a especificidade desses algoritmos no âmbito da guerra é o limite das ações de inteligência. Em 2013, Edward Snowden revelou ao mundo um programa extenso de roubo de informações e de criptoanálise do governo dos EUA contra outras nações e os próprios cidadãos americanos. A alegação, como sempre, foi de interesse pela segurança nacional.
Um governo sempre pode alegar interesse próprio. Entretanto, nas Relações Internacionais existe outro fator que move os acordos entre os países: a confiança. Nas guerras, a desconfiança impera entre as nações e é sinônimo de desgaste nas alianças. A revelação de Snowden estremeceu o vínculo entre os EUA e o Brasil, pois, entre os arquivos, constava atividade de inteligência referentes à vendas de campos de extração de petróleo da Petrobrás. Claro, o Brasil não possuía e ainda não possui poder suficiente para cobrar compensação dos EUA. Mas o mesmo não pode ser dito de nações como China e Rússia. Esta última, à época, ofereceu abrigo para Snowden.
Morgenthau apresenta ainda outro conceito a ser utilizado em sua teoria, o das armas utilizáveis e não utilizáveis. Compreende armamentos que podem ser utilizados para garantir os interesses de determinada nação, como a Coreia do Norte procura garantir os seus construindo armas nucleares. No entanto, o armamento nuclear é categorizado por Morgenthau como não utilizável porque se usado, bem, a vida na Terra será extinguida. Não há interesse que se sobreponha à sobrevivência.
Desde a primeira fissão do núcleo de um átomo, vivemos em um delicado equilíbrio. Líderes e presidentes estão sempre ameaçando jogar a primeira ogiva; nunca temos total segurança de quanto desse discurso é blefe. Durante o vazamento ocasionado por Snowden, Obama chegou a declarar que todo país tem seu método de espionagem, não haveria desculpas por parte do governo americano só porque o método deles era melhor. De fato, todos os países espionam. Mas se deve executar a atividade de inteligência segundo um dos princípios elencados por Cepik: o alvo da ação não deve saber. Não precisamos de mais estremecimentos nas Relações Internacionais.
Ninguém quer testar o blefe de um líder armado com bombas nucleares.
