It’s simple. MSNBCIA and CNN are littered with former spooks from the MICIMATT. Liberals always had a deep distrust in the sIf they can just turn off the valve(s) - which they control - why on Earth would they blow it up instead?
How does that possibly make sense?
Now they can't turn it on, so even if Germany or whoever wanted to cave in to get the gas, they can't.
With the pipelines damaged, Germany can't go weak-kneed. That makes it more likely that they stay on track to help Ukraine. Why would Russia want that?
Do you honestly think Germany believes Russia blew up their own best bargaining chip?
I don't understand what kind of echo chamber makes the "Russia did it" viewpoint look rational. What are MSNBC and CNN doing to my liberal friends' brains? I'm assuming that's where this nonsense comes from, but how are they selling it?
Russia makes the most sense to me, but that is not to say I dismiss the US doing it. However here is the thing if Hersh is or was right that was 7 days ago. That means all the major publications know who that 1 source is and whether they are credible or not, so you’re saying after 7 days you can’t find one other person to corroborate this account? The silence is deafening to me.
Russias whole plan this winter was to make Europe freeze and to lose support of Ukraine. They turned the valves off, then left 1 still available. If it was the Us why didn’t they blow up all 4. Leaving 1 allows for enough flow to get to Europe. #2 was dead in the water never to be used, So as prices started to decline for natural gas, it would have made sense for Russia to increase the pressure on Europe, and boy did it. The prices spiked 40 cents that day.
