US Bombed Russia's Nord Stream Gas Pipeline After Months-Long Planning by White House - Seymour Hersh
International Business Times ^ | February 8, 2023 | Jacob J

Posted on 02/08/2023 8:43:48 AM PST by Golden Eagle

Pulitzer Prize-winning investigative journalist Seymour Hersh has made the sensational claim that the United States was behind the bombing of the Nord Stream 1 gas pipeline in September last year.

Writing in his blog on Substack on Wednesday, Hersh said US Navy divers planted explosives at the pipelines in June last year, under the guise of BALTOPS 22 NATO exercise. The article says that the bombing of the Nord Stream pipeline was the culmination of months-long planning and preparations by the US. President Joe Biden and all his top leadership team participated in a series of top secret discussions in the lead-up to the act.

"Last June, the Navy divers, operating under the cover of a widely publicized mid-summer NATO exercise known as BALTOPS 22, planted the remotely triggered explosives that, three months later, destroyed three of the four Nord Stream pipelines, according to a source with direct knowledge of the operational planning," Hersh wrote in his blog.

I hear you but I think a lot of people are still drinking the Kool Aid that started with two World Wars.

When Woodrow Wilson committed the US to join the British Empire’s fight in World War I the die was cast and course set to where we are now.

Our love of our country, our patriotism from then, from 1917 on was being hijacked.

Government was engaging in lies and crackdowns on dissent arrests made during both World Wars of Americans who dissented.

Why am I not surprised? Everyone knew this—wait till one of our pipelines blows up like that one in Alaska. Putin has some payback planned.

I can’t imagine that the average American would look favorably upon Biden if it came out that he was behind the pipeline bombing.

Hersh had one big story in his life when the My Lai massacre was tipped off to him

Since then he had been on crusade with every whack job ant american conspiracy fantasy

Hersh has no credibility

Yeah, a stalemate in WWI eliminates WWII.

Even after messing that up, I wonder what would have happened if we had not pushed Japan into attacking us in WWII by the embargos. It is hard to believe they had the manpower or resources to conquer China. Likely a stalemate there and between Germany and Russia as well. We should have just opened our borders to the European Jews and stayed out of the war.

I don’t know what is going to happen in Ukraine, but I don’t believe Russia will go down without a lot of people dying in the US.

G-d forbid Americans have to die not to mention other folks.

It’s so sad the direction we are headed but the leaders have said that we must have a:

“rules based international order”

and based on their trajectory it is conceivable that us folks in flyover country may have to die for that.

They won’t in their bunkers.

Finally, others are catching up.

Tucker has been on this since last fall.

 

Tucker Carlson: What really happened to the Nord Stream pipeline? (Video - Sep 27, 2022)

TUCKER CARLSON: Only explanation allowed on Nord Stream is what the government wants you to believe (Video - Oct 5, 2022)

Tucker Carlson: Don't ask obvious questions about the Nord Stream pipeline leak (Video - Oct 7, 2022)

And so many more since then.

Naturally, the morons, subversive's and all-around enemies of our Constitutional Republic, immediately blamed Tucker as being "wild eyed" and a dangerous puppet of Putin.

 

Russian TV is very excited about Такер Карлсон's Nord Stream theory (Sep 29, 2022)

Russian TV Welcomes Tucker Carlson's Speculation Over Nord Stream Sabotage (Also goes on to blame Trump and MTG for agreeing with Tucker. Sep 29, 2022)

Tucker Carlson repeats baseless Russian talking point that U.S. was behind gas pipeline sabotage (Oct 1, 2022)

 

I would be surprised if Tucker doesn't talk about this tonight.

We can deduct it from what they should have been paying NATO for decades.

He said at the Abu Ghraib prison they did that. Now you may not feel like having a bunch of naked men stacked into a pyramid, or having a naked man blindfolded and lead around in a dog collar and a leash is sexual abuse, but I think most men would. But you’re from Poland, so God knows only what you people do.

Lets be accurate. His direct quote is "Basically what happened is that those women who were arrested with young boys, children, in cases that have been recorded, the boys were sodomized, with the cameras rolling, and the worst above all of them is the soundtrack of the boys shrieking."

So did US soldiers sodomize Iraqi boy's as Hersh claims? Or can we admit Hersh made up bs?
