Putting a little more meat on dem bones
Of COURSE the illegitimate Biden junta did it. Not to go all paranoid-conspiracy-theorist or anything, mind, but at this late date, is their good reason to believe there’s anything they wouldn’t do? Plus, as I said before: cui bono?
If you think the reasons behind the First World War were incomprehensible, imagine what historians of the future — pan-frying peccary loins over their camp fires — will think about World War Three. Some people started something in Ukraine…and then the USA blew up the main energy supply line of its NATO ally, Germany…say, what…?!?
Weird, a little bit. A sane person in a sane world would call sabotaging the Nord Stream pipelines an act-of-war against a friendly nation, since the result was to virtually destroy the basis of Germany’s industry, not to mention the domestic comfort of German citizens. Now, thanks to 85-year-old Seymour Hersh, the independent investigator who uncovered the My Lai Massacre in 1969 and reported on the depraved antics of American jailers at the Abu Ghraib prison in Iraq in 2004, we have a pretty good idea how the Nord Stream caper went down.
For a year before the op, “Joe Biden” and Undersecretary of State Victoria Nuland — architect of the 2014 Maidan Coup in Ukraine, which kicked-off the present fiasco there — blabbed about “ending” the Nord Streams. Curiously, the Germans said nothing. Meanwhile, the US made a deal to beef up military bases in Norway, an original NATO signatory (1949), for staging the Nord Stream sabotage op. Of course, Norway, being Western Europe’s sole remaining oil-and-gas exporter, had an interest in eliminating its competition.
In June of 2022, under cover of an annual NATO naval exercise in the Baltic Sea, US Navy divers attached mines to the Nord Stream pipelines. The mines had triggers that could be activated remotely at any chosen time, and that moment came on September 26…kaboom! Ms. Nuland and Secretary of State Antony Blinken gloated publicly. Naturally, the US blamed Russia. America’s news media — catamite of the Intel Community — amplified the charge, despite the absurdity of Russia blowing up its most lucrative source of export revenue. The New York Times has so far made no mention of Mr. Hersh’s recent update of the Nord Stream sabotage.
Germany, too, has hardly made a peep, nor did the rest of Western Europe, which now faces a future that looks, energy-wise, like a fairly swift return to the Fourteenth Century. Maybe they’re all jaded with modern life, all that tiresome bathing and malingering in the brightly-lit cafes. Under the sagacious guidance of the WEF they were all going “green,” anyway — but was that green like the heart-shaped leaves of the linden tree or green like the moldy veins in Roquefort cheese? I guess they’ll find out.
Yes, Hersh is a reflexively anti-American “journalist” whose exposes only ever seem to cut one way—razor-straight across the US throat. Yes, he relied on an anonymous source for this latest scoop of his. But neither of those things amounts to a hard argument that he’s wrong about it, although a certain healthy skepticism might be forgiven too. After all, even a blind squirrel finds a nut now and then.
Woodward and Bernstein’s fabled “Deep Throat” source remained anonymous all the way up until 2005. Nonetheless, the Watergate break-in and subsequent coverup did in fact actually happen, as we all know. Whether the fact that we DO all know turned out to be a net positive for the nation is a discussion for another day.
The pertinent fact remains: given the nature of the beast the central government has transmogrified into, what FederalGovCo employee in possession of a dark, ugly secret who is in his/her right mind would want even the least, most trifling leak attributed to them publicly, by name? Whistleblower-protection regulations notwithstanding, the retribution would be swift, sure, and epic.
I strongly suspected from the first that Nord Stream had been sabotaged, almost certainly by the Biden junta (as always, take that formulation as short-hand for the Shadow-State Men Behind The Curtain who pull the Biden marionette’s strings and make him dance). Why on earth would Russia have done any such thing, effectively destroying one of their best sources of not only income but influence in Western Europe? Meanwhile, the Biden junta has been nothing short of open and upfront—something extremely out of character, quite possibly a first-ever for them—about wishing the Russian cash-jugular cut, by hook or by crook.
I repeat: of course they did it. We can back and forth about it till the cows come home, but it requires just a few too many leaps of unmerited faith for me to make. No way, José; in the end…WE KNOW.
