I’m only part way through this but it’s a must read. The planning for Nordstream sabotage predated by some months (if not longer) the outbreak of Ukr-Russia hostilities. Which is not surprising, really, but nevertheless ought to fully expose what has really been going on.
Hi @KarenEliot , MoA slightly critical of the Hersh article in terms of limited hangout from his sources given its emphasis on the “How”.

The How does however clearly establish the Who, and the Why is obvious - US oil and gas interests and control over Europe so I’m with you, it’s a must read.
cheers

I’ve been reading thru the MoA comments, a real mixed bag. I’m not unpersuaded by some of them.
Always worth asking Why this, Why Now?
I think it very likely that it is a limited hangout and may be designed to increase pressure on Biden, along with the Joe’s Garage stuff (and probably more to come) to not stand again, if not to resign. (The problem with the latter is the current VP…)
If Biden goes and so do Nuland, Blinken, Sullivan the world would be a safer place.
I think Britain did most of the hands-on stuff, with Norway, using NATO tech. I can’t see any other explanation for Truss’s SMS to Blinkie: “it’s done” - unless the real text was the question “it’s done?”
Clarity from Caitlin following the Hersh revelations:
" The Nord Stream sabotage is like what 9/11 would look like if before 9/11 you had top US officials saying “Yeah we’re definitely going to bring an end to the World Trade Center” and then after 9/11 they were saying “It’s good that the World Trade Center was destroyed because it advances our interests.”

That the use of a ‘blog’ is deemed a suitable angle of attack is a very good point. Trustworthy sources, who know what is good for them, may also have blogs, of course, but are seldom associated with the sleep-deprived and definitely shady ‘failed writer’ archetype.
Another good tactic is to get some of the usual suspect maniacs to approve the story and I expect the Murdoch press will try to interview Brian Harvey to see what he has to say about it all.

Er - no, Cat, the accumulated 11/9 evidence is actually a good deal stronger than the NS sabotage evidence, strong though that already is. It was the unspeakable criminals of the DC Swamp who were behind both; though in the case of 11/9 they were acting under the prompting of the zionistanis in Palestine, who originated the conspiracy. And in the case of NS the Swamp creatures seem to have been using the ukstate’s clever little underwater mil-fascists as their seabed-mayhem gophers. How typical of the terminally-inadequate Liz Truss to make it so obvious.

Yes you’re right of course, though she’s mainly preaching to the many. Don’t let the facts get in the way of a good story!

That was great. Scott Ritter does some great rants and I especially enjoyed his suggestion that Biden should be “muzzled and locked away” (paraphrase)
