I understand, if this is true, Germany is SOL, as it will not be possible for Russia to get gas to Germany again, even if they become the best of friends.
If Biden starts shipping gas to Europe, we in USA will start suffering this winter as well.
I still can’t get the image out of my head of the Germans laughing at Trump’s speech at the UN.
Anything which hurts what Joe Biden calls “the Liberal World Order” is a good thing.
Other sources point to Poland (possibly with US help), as Poland never wanted the pipelines in the first place, as it bypassed them, and thus Russia could shut off the gas to Poland (which comes through Ukraine), while still providing gas to Germany and the rest of Europe.
Anyway, we’ll soon find out...but Germany just got screwed, big time.
Now even if the Europeans decide to make peace with the Russians, they’ll still freeze this winter. Thus, there’s no pressure to come to terms. Gonzalo Lira has the rundown. Watch:

The U.S. Is Winning Its War on Europe’s Industries and People:
What the U.S. needed was to provoke Russia, and later China, into reacting to U.S. arranged threats in a way that would oblige its ‘allies’ to follow its sanction policies.
The rather dimwitted European leadership fell for the trick.
…
As was easy predictable and, as Michael Hudson explained, the economic consequences of the anti-Russian sanctions within Europe have in contrast huge catastrophic consequences for the Europe’s industries, its societies and its political standing in the world.
…
The U.S., with the help of European politicians, is waging a war against the people of Europe and their standard of living. It is now on the verge of winning that war.
Also, The War on Germany Just Entered Its Hot Phase:
Just yesterday I laid out how the U.S. is winning its war on Europe’s industries and people.
That war, hidden behind the U.S. created Ukraine crisis, is designed to destroy Europe’s manufacturing advantage compared to the U.S. It is more likely though to strengthen the economic position of China and other Asian economies.
I have argued that Germany must open the Nord Stream II pipeline which can bring Russian natural gas to Germany without crossing other countries’ territory. It must also allow Siemens to repair the defect Nord Stream I compressors. It is in fact inevitable if German’s industry is to survive.
Maybe we can fix it if we give Ukraine billions of more dollars.
This just means that Germany will have to start playing power politics.
“ Biden pledges end to Nord Stream 2 if Russia invades Ukraine Feb 8, 2022
If Russia invades, that means tanks or troops crossing the ... border of Ukraine again, then there will be ... no longer a Nord Stream 2. We, we will bring an end to it,” Biden said. Asked how, given the project is in German control, Biden said: “I promise you, we’ll be able to do it.”

Wonder who was behind it. Could be America or Russians .
It is going to get cold and dark.
If we did this, then we deserve what will happen next.
Looking at the map, Odessa will now have to be taken by Russia - just in order to have a potentially-friendly way to route its gas to Europe. Otherwise, Ukraine and Poland have the capability to block gas flow to the rest of Europe.
This was an ABSOLUTELY IDIOTIC move by Biden’s people - and Europe may well flip sides over it.
On the good side - no more ‘Green Transition’ - not without natural gas to carry them through.
Sparks sabotage fears? lol
Three explosions, three different locations. Uh huh.
My money is on US sabotage
Wow. Did Biden actually follow through on a promise? That he promised this is probably the best evidence against one of our alphabet agencies doing it.
Tinfoil theory: Radical Greenies, if they bought a modestly capable submersible to plant explosives. (It’s not “sane”, but those are the least sane group of all.)
