Nord Stream Pipeline Explosion

Who benefits from cutting off gas flow to Western Europe, especially Sweden? The answer is RUSSIA. It puts more pressure on countries supporting Ukraine AND punishes Sweden for joining NATO. Russia also has the means. It has long had submarines and mini-subs designed for underwater sabotage.
This isn't WW2 and Uboats. Plenty of countries have subs now. Also see post above and answer that question
 
The Russian police have just released this sketch of the suspect.

Why would Putin blow up his own pipelines that Russia built, gets money from EU for gas and when Nord 2 wasn't operational yet? Please answer that Mr Shit Detective
Because he’s trying to force the Europeans to stop supporting Ukraine. Watch, he will refuse to cooperate with repairs until Ukraine gives him what he wants.
 
The USSR built impressive infrastructure and had brillant engineers.

Putin’s Russia is nothing but a pathetic, shrinking nation of gangsters and prostitutes. They’ve contributed nothing to the Arts and Sciences.
Arts? Maybe they should have a Lizzo or Post Malone 🙄

Science. Guess you've never heard of their hypersonic missile system Avangard.

So two spots there you are wrong and laughable
 
I mentioned this in another thread. Un-manned, Underwater, Vehicles (UUV) are already used to inspect pipelines. How hard would it be to attach an explosive to one?

Everything about Russia has been shrinking rapidly since 1991.

Their population. Their army. Their navy. Their economy. Their space program. Their influence in the world.

Not even the British Empire slid into irrelevance so quickly.

Yes Sir.

You are not wrong there!

If that were true all he'd have to do is close the feed. Blowing it up wastes money and makes 0 sense

No.

It's the brains of some that have been shrinking more rapidly since...... a long time ago,.:dunno:
 
Nord stream AG: Three strands of the Nord Stream gas pipeline system have been damaged Nord Stream AG: it is not yet possible to estimate when the gas transportation infrastructure will be restored Russian gas supplies via Nord Stream have been completely halted.
Danish Energy Agency puts the energy sector on orange alert, the second highest level, amid the multiple Nord Stream gas leaks.
BT: The Danish Energy Agency says that people should stay far away from the Nord Stream gas leaks: "It's life-threatening"

— Danish Newspaper Berlingske says that Danish Royal Air Force F-16s aircrafts spotted that the the sea was "bubbling" over the southeast of Bornholm island Professor Simon Pedersen "There is a risk of an massive explosion at the leak area"

German goverment "Our imagination no longer yields a scenario that is not a targeted attack." Such a suspected attack has to be carried out with special forces, for example, navy divers, or a submarine, according to the German government's assessment.
Leak hapenned on a "very strange place",miraculously ended up in international waters...Near and around Denmark, but not inside.

There is an unprecedented situation on the Nord Stream that requires investigation, the situation affects the energy security of an entire continent -Kremlin
The Kremlin does not exclude the possibility that a diversion occurred on the Nord Stream and Nord Stream-2 gas pipelines Now it is impossible to exclude any option until the conclusions of experts have appeared,- Dmitry Peskov stressed.

Sweden has limited the altitude of flights over the "Nord Stream" The Swedish Maritime Administration-"Appropriate warnings were sent to everyone," Recommended that the aircraft fly at an altitude of at least 1000 meters in connection with the emergency on the Nord Stream.
Danish prime minister Mette Frederiksen suspects the leaks in the Nord Stream pipelines may be caused by sabotage. "It is hard to imagine that it is accidental. We cannot rule out sabotage, but it is too early to conclude,"
Polish Prime-Minister Morawiecki: Today we faced an act of sabotage, we don't know all the details of what happened, but we see clearly that it's an act of sabotage, related to the next step of escalation of the situation in Ukraine,"

Bloomberg: Germany suspects damage to Nord Stream pipeline is the result of sabotage.
The German government does not rule out that the reason for the pressure drop in the Nord Stream pipelines could be a deliberate sabotage, the purpose of which was to create uncertainty in the European gas markets, the Spiegel newspaper reported, citing its own source.

It all comets together as we say all the time...Wall Street doesn't like long-term gas contracts between Russia end EU countires so it can make money with speculations with gas prices, because with long-term contracts there could be no price speculations...That is the main reason

Washington has once again promised to stop the Russian gas transportation project Nord Stream-2. US Ambassador to the EU Gordon Sondland said on November 13 that his country has the means to slow down the construction of the pipeline. The Ambassador explained this position with concern for the Europeans themselves and their security.

"When Europeans are vulnerable, the United States also becomes vulnerable. We don't want the gas to turn off in winter because of the crisis. If the EU does not understand this logic, then the US president can use many other tools that we have at our disposal, I will not list them now to stop this project," Sondland said.

The ambassador did not specify which instruments he was talking about, but added that there were many of them and that the United States had not used all of them yet, but could do so in the future.

However, it may not be necessary to resort to extreme measures, since, according to the diplomat, "more and more Europeans believe that dependence on Russian gas will be the wrong decision."

The Pope said this isn't as bad as an afternoon with biden.

The British Empire went down in WW2. Look at maps from before and after the war

So again your analogy is off

And their economy is actually up along with the ruble being the strongest currency this year

 
Apparently someone blew up the Nordstream pipeline. Who did it?




All the signs these days are reminiscent of the lead up to both world wars of the 20th century. Had I been a member of the special operations detachment ordered to demo Nord Stream, I would have refused on the grounds doing so is fucking insane. If Putin uncovers US involvement he will certainly retaliate. Imagine our response to Russia blowing up the Alaska pipeline. Biden has flipped his wig. The Biden administration seems to think it can continue to kick Russia around like a deflated soccer ball without consequence. I mean, it's not like Russia has thousands of thermonuclear warheads stockpiled or anything.
