Yeah, the US government would NEVER lie to us. We believe everything they say.

This isn't a story about the government, it's a story about a 'reporter' who moved from exposing truth to maybe not reporting it and getting upset about his loss of face

My gut reaction to hearing about this today was that it was disinformation.

The US empire has too many vassal states that it could use to do this for them. Why would they risk direct action on their own? They wouldn't.

WHO would do it though?

Think about it, must be:

  • Not in mainland Europe because they want the gas
  • Close enough that it's not absolutely nonsensical for them to send people there, therefore not Australia, nor South American "allies".
  • Who does that leave? Thailand? South Korea? They're not on such friendly terms.
  • Norway? They don't need the gas. Sure, could be Norway, but it seems way out of character.

Please name a nation for whom it makes sense to do this...

Any country with a ruling class that wants to sabotage their own population. All of them are suspect.

It's part of the depopulation agenda. They want to sabotage the system.

Hm... I didn't think of making energy more expensive as part of that, but come to think of it, makes sense.

Make energy more expensive, then cut food production to a fraction --> People can't afford to live ... Then offer euthanasia!

Defending the powerful, doubting the little guy. Again. Who does this without being paid?

Chipotle. Some interests wage war through deception.

Again Chipit - your IQ of 34 is showing. Have someone explain geopolitics to you. It's not that complicated.

None of them are very competent except for maybe the UK.
