How America Took Out The Nord Stream Pipeline

The United States, Norway and NATO have Committed an Act of War Against Russia


During the final minutes of my radio show last night, I told my audience I wish I didn't know some of the things I know.  Now, one of those things has become public: It was the United States that bombed Russia's Nord Stream 1 & 2 Pipelines in the Baltic Sea.  Norway participated by flying-in a sonar buoy which gave off the Detonation Signal.  NATO is an accessory, by willfully using BALTOPS 22 "Exercise" as a cover to plant the bombs.  War is now likely.

In an article written by long-time, world-renowned Investigative Journalist, Seymour M. Hersh, the truth has now come out.

First, from Wikipedia:

Seymour Myron "Sy" Hersh (born April 8, 1937) is an 85 year old American investigative journalist, and political writer.

Hersh first gained recognition in 1969 for exposing the My Lai Massacre and its cover-up during the Vietnam War, for which he received the 1970 Pulitzer Prize for International Reporting. During the 1970s, Hersh covered the Watergate scandal for The New York Times and revealed the clandestine bombing of Cambodia. In 2004, he reported on the U.S. military's mistreatment of detainees at Abu Ghraib prison. He has also won two National Magazine Awards and five George Polk Awards. In 2004, he received the George Orwell Award.

Hersh accused the Obama administration of lying about the events surrounding the death of Osama bin Laden and disputed the claim that the Assad regime used chemical weapons on civilians in the Syrian Civil War. Both assertions have stirred controversy.


In his "substack" web site, published about nine hours ago (about 7:00 AM eastern US time today) Hirsh published a story entitled "How America Took Out The Nord Stream Pipeline"  with the sub-title being "The New York Times called it a “mystery,” but the United States executed a covert sea operation that was kept secret—until now."   (Direct Link to Story)

It's a long read, but worth it.

In the story, Hirsh reveals that the Operation was planned for nine months.  It was planned in the top floor of the Old Executive Office Building, on the grounds of the White House.  The biggest concern: How to leave no evidence tying it to the United States.

The story reports that the explosives were placed during the annual NATO Naval Exercise "Baltic Operations 22"  (BALTOPS 22) by US Navy Divers.  The NATO exercise was used as a "cover" for the explosives to be planted.

It also reveals that months later, after receiving the "Go" signal from CIA Director Burns, a plane from Norway's military dropped a special sonar buoy into the Baltic Sea which gave-off the Detonation signal, triggering the explosives and destroying the pipeline.


Ladies and Gentlemen, make no mistake: This was a crime.   It was a criminal conspiracy to commit a bombing, and later, the actual commission of that bombing.  It seems to me, as a layman, the people who engaged in this are personally guilty of federal Felonies. 


The planning for this crime was so thorough, they even chose the use of a specific US Navy undersea dive team which would NOT trigger any reporting to the US Congress about its activities!

Now, I could go paragraph by paragraph to report and analyze Seymour Hersh article, but it is much better if you go read it yourselves.

Very long story short: The President of the United States ordered his staff to come up with a way to "deal with" the Nord Stream Pipeline.  They did.  It got blown up.  This was a crime.  It is also, an Act of War against Russia.

I suspect the Russians are absorbing and analyzing Hersh's article.  As Russians are well known  to do, they will think about this for a good while.  Then, they will take well-thought-out and thought-through action.


We have committed an Act of War.  Russia now has a Casus Belli - a cause for just war.

I suspect that Russia may publicly demand President Biden be Impeached and criminally prosecuted, along with the other Conspirators.  I also suspect that Russia may add, if Biden is not impeached and prosecuted, and the Conspirators not prosecuted, then it will be war.

Knowing that the US Government will never agree to impeach its now-criminal President, nor hold accountable the other Conspirators, I also suspect war is coming -- a lot faster than any of us think, and a lot worse than any of us know. 


How America Took Out The Nord Stream Pipeline

The U.S. Navy’s Diving and Salvage Center can be found in a location as obscure as its name—down what was once a country lane in rural Panama City, a now-booming resort city in the southwestern panhandle of Florida, 70 miles south of the Alabama border. The center’s complex is as nondescript as its location—a drab concrete post-World War II structure that has the look of a vocational high school on the west side of Chicago. A coin-operated laundromat and a dance school are across what is now a four-lane road.

The center has been training highly skilled deep-water divers for decades who, once assigned to American military units worldwide, are capable of technical diving to do the good—using C4 explosives to clear harbors and beaches of debris and unexploded ordinance—as well as the bad, like blowing up foreign oil rigs, fouling intake valves for undersea power plants, destroying locks on crucial shipping canals. The Panama City center, which boasts the second largest indoor pool in America, was the perfect place to recruit the best, and most taciturn, graduates of the diving school who successfully did last summer what they had been authorized to do 260 feet under the surface of the Baltic Sea.

Last June, the Navy divers, operating under the cover of a widely publicized mid-summer NATO exercise known as BALTOPS 22, planted the remotely triggered explosives that, three months later, destroyed three of the four Nord Stream pipelines, according to a source with direct knowledge of the operational planning.

Two of the pipelines, which were known collectively as Nord Stream 1, had been providing Germany and much of Western Europe with cheap Russian natural gas for more than a decade. A second pair of pipelines, called Nord Stream 2, had been built but were not yet operational. Now, with Russian troops massing on the Ukrainian border and the bloodiest war in Europe since 1945 looming, President Joseph Biden saw the pipelines as a vehicle for Vladimir Putin to weaponize natural gas for his political and territorial ambitions.
