Nord Stream ‘Whodunnit’ May Never Be Known. What Is Known: Europe Energy In Deep Crisis Mode
Forbes ^

Posted on 10/05/2022 6:41:40 AM PDT by MNDude

Explosions and a natural gas leak last week at the sister pipelines of Nord Stream I and Nord Stream II, connecting Russia to Germany via the Baltic Sea, may remain a mystery like the “magic bullets” that killed John F. Kennedy

The Russians say it was not sabotage on their end. It was the Americans. The Pentagon denies it. NATO says it was the Russians that ruined it, calling it an attack on European infrastructure. ... But for Europe, its current energy strategy is crippling its manufacturers. Steel mills have shut down. No steel, no cars (including electric ones). No steel, no tooling for German’s famous industrial power centers

From the article:

Stephen Bryen, a former Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense in the Reagan administration, wrote Monday on the Jewish Policy Center’s website that there was no “corroborating or credible evidence” that the Americans blew up the pipeline, nor the Russians. Moreover, he noted that the region is a hotbed of unexploded WWII ordinance. The area is a naval firing range for numerous countries as well. Accidents happen, he said. It’s not impossible.

I’ve seen enough detective shows to know that when a person starts making outlandish scenarios to explain a crime, they’re the guilty party.

The latest reporting is that one of the 2 lines of Nordstream 2 remains operational and line 1 is reparable. Although there are a thousand reasons to believe this was a CIA-MI6 plot, we cannot let that thug Putin off the hook. US costs to Europe for their fuel dependency on us are escalating rapidly - more demand less supply and costs go up.

But that thug Putin could have done it to show the Europeans what self serving monopolists pulling Bidens strings look like. Germany is in trouble. Do they go with the US and remain our bitch or does EU and NATO start to weaken as our attempts to call our NATO peons to heel backfires. That is in that worthless thug Putin's interests in trying to break apart "our thing" so he can keep his corrupt incompetent state going.

While we all recognize cornpop Biden is tough and smart, he's to smart to do what he said he would do. It's Putin, no question. Stay with NATO and do the US bidding and freeze, or join us and give up on freedom and democracy in the Ukraine. Horns of dilemma. Putin is a vicious nasty self-serving anti-democratic thug.

As an American taxpayer very happy that the demented, corrupt fraud Biden and his globalist cabal of green lunatics are not openly boasting of their big caper. For if they do or it is proven that the US government is responsible for this action, there will be endless lawsuits and demands for compensation. Europe will suffer enormous economic and social consequences as a result of cutting these critical energy sources. They will demand compensation. It will fall on productive ,decent Americans who have or want nothing to do with the Biden clown parade to pay the bill.

For years I have heard that international trade would end wars. The point was that nations do not go to war with business partners.

I don’t think that is true now or has ever been true, but the current Russia/Ukraine war clearly shows that nations go to war even if it is in their best interest not to.

Another thing it exposes is that relying on a potential enemy for critical items (such as oil and gas) is foolish.

Perhaps another lessons nations (and businesses) should learn is that “just in time delivery” is a problem just waiting to happen.

The last lesson nations should learn is that “green energy” is a pipe dream (at least with today’s technology).

So now we know for sure it was Poland, with support from DC. The motions was to prevent Germany from making a deal in a few weeks to back off on sanctions. And just a week or so before the Russians told them all they had to do was allow Nordstream 2 to simply turn on.

All the spy planes, patrol vessels, and satellites watching that area intensely… and we didn’t see a thing? That pretty much says it all. Sherlock Holmes called it the dog that didn’t bark. Those Russians must be amazingly skilled. Lol

Hmmm...Just like the origins of the COVID-19 virus or the names on Ghislaine Maxwell’s client list. I guess we’ll never know.

Oh well, better get back to earning money so we can pay our taxes.

It doesn’t appear it will ever be known conclusively who actually did it.

My expectation is that Ukraine will eventually be identified by the main stream media as the most likely, impractical as that may be, but it ties it all up nicely and meets the media’s (deep state’s) goals the best.
