I'm posting this as a counterpoint to Hersh's article on the Nord Stream pipeline because it's better than some of the other hit pieces like the Reuters one. This analysis is more nitpicking small details than a broad counterargument, and I still find the explanation of the US attacking the pipeline more plausible. I do think there are probably some factual errors in Hersh's article, and I wish we had more to go on than an anonymous source.

Good critique, much better than the drivel MSM articles attempting to debunk this. It does seem like Hersch's reporting here is kind of sloppy considering its one of the very few pieces of this sort to get any kind of mainstream attention. If you are going to obviously open yourself up to fire from the establishment by attacking them using your Pullitzer cred, you'd think you wouldn't want to play so fast and loose with the facts.

Thanks for sharing this piece, appreciate being able to get a reasonable critique of this

    You keep posting this same debunked bullshit.

    Yes, Biden and Nuland were exactly correct when they said that NS2 would never be certified by the Germans if ruzzia continued on its belligerent course. You should look up the history of NS2 because both of their statements were exactly sensible and in context at the time.

    Why would Biden and Nuland leave the modern, high capacity Nordstream2 as the sole remaining method for gaZprom. It doesn't make sense. And yet instead of grasping with how nonsensical this is, you just repost it somewhere else

    ruZzia is the mafia terrorist state who destroyed Nordstream1 and you are their useful idiot

      ruZzia didn't blow up Nordstream2 so don't mischatacterise what I have explained to you over and over.

      They blew up the outdated Nordstream1 in an act of energy terrorism to pressure Germany, at a time when Putin was still under this misbelief that that would work.

      There is no accidental support for Z. You know what you're doing. So no insult is strong enough to condemn your simping for a genocide

      I have to agree with you on this one, though without the insults.

        Saying what things? You mean videos of Biden and Nuland saying the things which I acknowledge them saying when I wrote

        Biden and Nuland were exactly correct when they said that NS2 would never be certified by the Germans if ruzzia continued on its belligerent course

        You shill. You fucking shill. Don't call me names just because you have no reading comprehension. Why don't you exorcise your own shilling instincts before accusing me of this bullshit
