I only agree with part of that.

Yes, Obummer, Hillary, most of the Establishment, and various Allies and other players want that pipeline. The reasons vary and are complex. But, essentially, the globalists DO see Russia as a foe. And even if you’re not a globalist, Europe’s dependence on Russia for energy is a big problem. Additionally, the Gulf States need Europe as a bigger customer, especially with the Americas being increasingly self sufficient (or at least have the capacity & reserves to be so.) For Hillary and Co., it’s also an opportunity to cash in.

Global destabilization as a goal I’m less certain of, though. That’s just too dicey / can go too many directions that would disrupt the globalist’s plans. “One world gov’t” in that instance is less likely, not more likely. (The present trend of countries to fracture, Brexit, and other indicators, shows pretty clearly that destabilization on a global scale would literally be impossible to control and direct.) OTOH, as usual, “follow the money”.

That said, these fools did not learn, early on, from the “Arab Spring”. Undoubtedly, they thought they could easily topple Assad and install a puppet gov’t. They thought a few stories of persecuted gays, and so on, would solidify support for the effort in the West. Instead, they got the worst case (but predictable!) scenario of an unending civil war in Syria, ISIS strengthened, millions of refugees, a restored Russian presence in the region, “allies” in the region at each others throats, and obviously, no pipeline. Of course, quite a few pockets got lined too.

global destabilization is the only reason I can think of that Merkel would act as irresponsible as she has....along with other nations that took these stone age awful people in...

we're not talking little orphans here...we're talking a large preponderance of males on the warpath...
