Are We the Baddies? [America Blew Up Nordstream Pipeline]
Chronicles ^ | March 1, 2023 | Edward Welsch

Posted on 03/06/2023 9:53:34 AM PST by Angelino97

“How America Took Out the Nord Stream Pipeline,” by renowned investigative journalist Seymour Hersh ... reports that President Joe Biden, National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan, Secretary of State Tony Blinken, and Under Secretary of State for Political Affairs Victoria Nuland devised a covert plan to destroy the Nord Stream 2 natural gas pipeline, a project that would have delivered Russian natural gas to Germany and the rest of Europe.

According to Hersh’s sources, the U.S. Navy’s deep-sea divers planted explosives on the pipeline in June near the Danish Island of Bornholm, using the cover of a joint NATO exercise to disguise their activities, then remotely detonated the bombs in September, just as the European appetite for continuing the endless trains of money and war materiel to Ukraine was beginning to fade.

“As long as Europe remained dependent on the pipelines for cheap natural gas, Washington was afraid that countries like Germany would be reluctant to supply Ukraine with the money and weapons it needed to defeat Russia,” Hersh wrote.

The import of this story should not be lost on Americans. It appears that our government has attacked the civilian infrastructure of an allied country and a member of the NATO alliance—Germany—for the purposes of maintaining a geostrategic advantage over both Europe and Russia.

Such an attack would be many things: an act of international terrorism, a war crime, a betrayal of an ally and of the NATO treaty, an attack on a nuclear superpower, and an impeachable offense by President Biden.

Above all, it would be an evil action, revealing the utter moral bankruptcy of the claim, oft repeated by both neoliberals and neoconservatives, that the United States government acts as a moral force in the world, spreading abroad freedom, democracy, and the high principles of the American Founding Fathers.

There was a time when America hating fifth columnists like Hersh were slavered over by leftists and hated by all with any morality.

America has become a war mongering evil state. It is a country where the Gov’t routinely lies to its people, forces them to inject a poison, tells children they are in the wrong body and will mutilate them. This is just the beginning.

But that’s only the tip of the iceberg. This investigative power needs to be unleashed on the totality of the COVID madness. The U.S. government is the “baddie” in far more than NORDSTREAM.

If China had blown up the Keystone Pipeline - rather than Biden killing the project - it would have been considered an act of war.

I’m guessing - considering how our intelligence goons and thugs have hunted and lied about conservative Americans - that it’s possible they were behind blowing up Nordstream. Out of control and lawless... like the 51 intelligence goons who lied about Hunter’s laptop.

I think what Hersh “reports” has more to do with promoting “the narrative” than anything resembling the truth.

If such an operation was undertaken, nobody who had any knowledge of it would have talked to Hersh. But whether it was or not, there are plenty of people with no knowledge of it who’d be happy to make ambiguous statements about what might have happened, so long as their names were kept secret.

“Truth” isn’t even a secondary concern.

We set the Middle East on fire, killed hundreds of thousands (or more) or innocent people, wasted trillions of dollars we don’t have, left tens of billions of dollars of advanced weaponry in the hands of savages, committed acts of war against a nuclear state...maybe you should defend this behavior instead of deporting those who call it out.

get used to it....

remember fondly when we all watched Sky King and Roy Rogers and all the cowboy and indian movies and all the war movies and we always KNEW we were the best country with the best people.....

its sad to realize that we are not....

we have plenty of good people although their silence is deafening....

but our govt...almost all of it....is corrupt and evil and sinister and self serving...

good is bad and bad is good...

up is down, etc....

I am cheering Russia on and hope to God that the Ukraine and Russian people can survive what has to be done...

“America has become a war mongering evil state.”

Are you one of those who kneels in protest when the national anthem is played?

Do you refuse to let your kids say the Pledge of Allegiance in school?

“We set the Middle East on fire”

You think the Middle East had seen hundreds of years of peace and prosperity before we arrived?

We made the mistake of jumping into a burning building hoping to save some people. We learnt that those folk are happier living in the flames.

“You think his report on Nordstream is inaccurate?”

A far left reporter relying on a single anonymous source from the Deep State.

How much credibility do you give that?

America didn’t blow it up. Biden did, and it is no longer accurate to say the president represents the nation. Biden represents the deep state.
