WASHINGTON (Reuters) - New intelligence reviewed by U.S. officials suggests that a pro-Ukrainian group carried out the attack on the Nord Stream pipelines last year, the New York Times reported on Tuesday.

There was no evidence that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy or his top lieutenants were involved in the operation, or that the perpetrators were acting at the direction of any Ukrainian government officials, the newspaper reported, citing U.S. officials.

As if anybody is going to believe this, they’re not even good at lying.

Officials who have reviewed the intelligence said they believed the saboteurs were most likely Ukrainian or Russian nationals, or some combination of the two. U.S. officials said no American or British nationals were involved," according to the Times report.

Wait, I thought it was settled, Seymour Hersch had heard from an anonymous source.

Zelvis had one foot thrown under the bus. Eventually, they’ll throw the rest of him under as well.

NYT,yahoo and Rooters are just left-wing propaganda.
Sy Hersh don’t buy this BS either...
.
have you been keeping up with this story?
they used Navy instead of spec ops to avoid the covert requirement of congressional reporting!
https://seymourhersh.substack.com/p/how-america-took-out-the-nord-stream

Biden is the only one who publicly threatened to blow it up!
.
On February 7, 2022, in the buildup to the war in Ukraine, the president of the United States, Joe Biden, at a press conference at the White House with German chancellor Olaf Scholz, said that we can stop Nord Stream.
The exact wording from Joe Biden was “If Russia invades, there will be no longer a Nord Stream 2, we will bring an end to it.” And when a reporter asked how exactly he intended to do it, given that the project was within the control of Germany, Biden just said, “I promise we will be able to do it.”
.
Hersh is credible.Seymour Myron “Sy” Hersh is an American investigative journalist and political writer. He first gained recognition in 1969 for exposing the My Lai Massacre and its cover-up during the Vietnam War, for which he received the 1970 Pulitzer Prize for International Reporting. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seymour_Hersh

Here’s an interview with that original author Seymour Hersh.
He is very credible with lots of detail.

LOL, credible. Okay

Hersh also says the bulk of the Russian army is not in Ukraine. Hersch said US troops sodomized young Iraqi boys. Hersch said the whole Osama raid was fake. Osama was being held by the Pakistanis and the seal team walked in and executed Osama.

“The intelligence review suggests those who carried out the attacks opposed Russian President Vladimir Putin.”

_________

Well, that’s just brilliant. Our intelligence people who lied about Hunter’s laptop and Biden family crimes and election fraud and so much more is now covering their butts.

There are plenty other pipes. It’s amusing to see Russia and its fellow travelers gaslight on this topic. Nordstream is dead politically. Putin killed it with his weaponization of energy and his genocidal orgy of violence in Ukraine. Putin just can’t stop losing and NS is in the dust bin of history.

I still give maybe 1-in-3 odds that some entity who stood to directly make billions off the heightened gas prices pulled this off, figuring everybody would point fingers from a political standpoint.

“Follow the money”, so to speak.

Laughable BS which precisely nobody who is not a complete imbecile will believe for even a second.

And how many go directly from Russia to Germany?

How many of the other pipelines have to go through other, non-Russian, operators before reaching Germany?

With Nord Stream, Eastern European countries would have been a non-factor when it came to Russia supplying energy directly to Germany, at least so far as transit and price negotiations went.

Nordstream is dead politically. Putin killed it with his weaponization of energy and his genocidal orgy of violence in Ukraine.

What nonsense. Nord Stream's presence was always a political factor when it came to negotiations with Western Europe, even if it was shut off. The mere fact it could be turned back on from Russia's end was a huge bargaining chip when it came to the matter of easing sanctions, and so on.

That's why we blew it up: to remove that card from Russia's hands.
