In the immediate aftermath of the Nord Stream Pipeline sabotage, everyone knew there was something fishy about the whole story. I said back then that I wouldn’t be the least bit surprised to discover that the U.S. was behind it. Today, International Reporting Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Seymour Hersh published a bombshell story alleging that the pipeline bombing was a top secret mission conducted by the U.S. Navy and overseen by President Biden himself in response to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
The report cites a source “with direct knowledge of the operational planning” behind the secret mission. Hersh alleges that U.S. Navy divers planted explosives intended to cripple the pipeline and sever Russia’s hold on the European oil industry. A Swedish investigation did find evidence of intentional detonations pointing to sabotage in the explosions that caused $500 million in damages to the pipeline. There were also reports at the time of the bombing that the U.S. Navy had been conducting NATO training exercises just months earlier in the exact area of the pipeline bombing.
The report is impressively detailed and rather compelling, especially when you consider the fact that on February 7th, 2022, President Biden threatened to destroy the Nord Stream Pipeline if Russia invaded. Then there are the recent bizarre statements by Under Secretary Of State Victoria Nuland regarding the incident.
White House/CIA say the report regarding the Nord Stream pipeline explosion "is utterly false and complete fiction.”

Funny enough, this was February 7th of last year… https://t.co/OTuS0VmMkG pic.twitter.com/zv7YxwZ5y8
At a Senate hearing, top US diplomat Victoria Nuland celebrated the Nord Stream 2 pipeline bombing:

"Senator Cruz, like you, I am, and I think the administration is, very gratified to know that Nord Stream 2 is now, as you like to say, a hunk of metal at the bottom of the sea." pic.twitter.com/KS5OM4N165
The White House and intelligence agencies predictably denied the whole report, claiming it is “complete fiction.” What else are they going to say? Of course they’re going to deny the whole thing. Their denial is meaningless. Some Senators apparently aren’t convinced by their denial. They, like me, are appropriately skeptical and suspicious. Over the last few years especially, the Biden Administration and our government at large have proven that we can’t trust what they say and they’re certainly capable of anything.
I’m troubled that I can’t immediately rule out the suggestion that the U.S. blew up Nord Stream. I checked with a bunch of Senate colleagues. Among those I’ve asked, none were ever briefed on this. If it turns out to be true, we’ve got a huge problem. https://t.co/DG0dYTByPI

What is far more powerful than the official governmental denial of any involvement in this top secret plot is the fact that this bombshell report wasn’t published in any mainstream media outlet. An International Reporting Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist chose to publish it on his own Substack, likely because the entire mainstream media industry has been captured by hyper partisan activists and political interests, which are the enemy of truth and free speech. This move speaks to the shift in news and journalism, and the move away from the mainstream legacy media industry in favor of independent and citizen journalism. The mainstream media is becoming irrelevant.

Amazing detail in this well written article. Gives a compelling case the USA blew up the pipeline. If we did do it, this shows how short sighted Biden is. Never believed Russia would blow up there own pipeline. Nor any European nation doing it. Could see China doing it.
Well, yeah. Was there any doubt about that?
From the very beginning it was obvious the West was pretending to do something good to accomplish evil. If “they” have to “bend” some rules to get their goals, they will do it without a second thought.
