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.

Why does any country in the world have anything to do with the United States? Is there anything we aren’t bent on destroying?

Really,#1? Please don't confuse the US with our leftist "leaders" now running America into the ground.

That was my hunch when it happened. Biden supports the enviro-fascism movement and is hell bent on taking away our fuel supplies. Doing it to Europe is a safe move for him.

This is Hersh's opinion. Show me the proof.

#5 May be Hersh's opinion, but the Moron already told us he did it just a day or so after it happened.

Sooo...he's saying that Biden used the US Military to attack both Chinese and Russian Civilian equipment? At least ONE if not both operations constituting, by definition, an unprovoked Act of War?
Both operations giving an open invitation for both Russia and China to do similar actions against US assets,companies, operations.
Some may say Gazprom is a Russian State Oil company...yeah, the govt owns some of it, profits from it, but how do you think British Petroleum, Royal Dutch Shell, Total(France), Petrol de Venezuela, Saudi Aramco, Nigerian State Oil Co., Kuwait Oil, Sinogas(china) are structured? All of their refineries and pipelines have other investors as well, and most are publicly traded companies, as is gazprom. The US Govt is a major profiteer in the US market as well, between taxes at every level, drilling on federal lands, offshore, pipeline royalties for public lands they cross.
Russia doesn't need to do a direct titfortat...they can cut undersea communication lines, particularly since this Nordstream operation was an economic/trade attack as well as a simply structure target. They can hit the Alaskan pipeline..."Alls Fair"....now. They could close the Panama Canal and the Suez both, look what happened when an "Accident" shut down the Suez a couple of years back.
Or...in collusion with China, they could just put in sell orders...dump all assets/stocks/bonds owned or controlled by their respective states. Tanking world markets, desperate funds trying to cover other margins would be bought up for pennies on the dollar by those same sellers, they can rinse and repeat until they own majorities of many many more companies, as well as all of the real estate assets of them, as well as most of the US and Europe's public debt, pensions, even targeted cities bonds. What happens when Chicago, San Francisco, Los Angeles, even DC have all of their bonds(or most of them) owned by Russians and Chinese?
The oldest rule on the Street is..."You owe me? I OWN you."

When the dims control the government the US is an unreliable ally.
'75 South Vietnamese (the dims had both Houses and Ford was impotent) Somalia in the 90s. Ukraine/ Crimea in 2014. "Red line" zero in Syria. Afghanistan in '21. The zero and bidet Iran policy threatens Israel.
Taiwan should be very concerned.

I'm with #1. A country would have to be insane to deal with or trust our government on any issue. It is completely without honor. It doesn't even matter what letter is in power. They all do it. They are unworthy of existence.
