I feel like the the US used the Ukrainian as a smoke screen
Sagar quote: “it’s been like that from the beginning, but now you’re allowed to talk about it”
So much for the claim of “alternate media.”
But, but, but… I've been told that I must be a conspiracy theorist if I think that Putin didn't swim down to the pipeline and blow it up himself.
Ok, we “finally learned the truth.” Give it up Saagar.
Youtbe tired to make us believe they not
Tje poimt os tjst Germany has no gas
If anyone actually thought Ukraine did this without US help, then shame on your brain
Who do you believe – Seymour Hersh or the Ukrainian military? Zelensky had no idea? hmmmm…
I am not sure why people still believe the western countries?? Who is evil now?
So what if they did?
That’s a very shallow view on things. Just regurgitating main stream media. Think what was happening at that time. US was putting pressure on Russian economy, Russia was essentially trying to blackmail using the pipeline by cutting it down to 10% or more. CIA was working heavily with Ukraine. But then you say Ukraine did it to pressure US to help. My guess is the US knew exactly what was planned if not they were the ones spearheading it. Just cut off Russias ability to use it as a tool against the west. Then look at the result. They are no longer reliant on that pipeline for energy. Looks like a geopolitical move to hurt Russia and force countries reliant to find other means of supply. I’d be willing to bet if you looked at US exports of gas to that region since then it has drastically increased.
I just can't listen to Krystal's takes. They're just trash, bashing America. Bashing Israel. It's terrible to listen to her, especially when i know what she's saying isn't true.
If by coordinated they mean….
Military Officer who coordinated the operation: "Do you think we could blow up the pipeline?"
Good idea. Let's ask America to do it.
The CIA and Navy SEALs where also involved…
Oh my god these takes are bad. I don’t care about the nordstream, it was obvious at the time it was a warning of what someone in the area was capable of doing. That line wasn’t in use and the other line was. To now turn around and pretend that anything about the situation has changed is unbelievable. The vast majority of the money they give Ukraine goes directly to arms manufacturers in the states and the Americans who build the weapons, it’s a make work project which has the benefit of helping protect an ally that we promised we would defend if ever invaded by Russia , which they were. The Russians initiated this, they are the sole reason why any of this is happening, and yes the war is currently at a stalemate and now that it’s a never ending slog political factions are fighting for control in Ukraine. This is not hard to figure out or complicated, but this channel continues to only focus on Ukraine and ignores Russia. Report the story that’s fine, but the opinion takes on this channel regarding this war are just terrible.
Ukraine is paid to admit that. They don’t have the intelligence and infrastructure to accomplish such feat
This has NAVY and CIA written all over it.
Why would Russia cut off a major export revenue, and the US is conveniently happy to sell FLNG to Europe's sudden demand for energy?
Come on dudes, I like BP, but you're running the errands of the govt.
What Americans think Russia is, is actually who we are. Wicked from the rooter to the tooter.
I always enjoy the show but you guys are talking like in the Spanish American war, WWI, WWII, Korea, And Vietnam and so many other conflicts international norms were adhered to. We have always chosen to follow the rules we wanted to follow and disregarded those that were convenient to disregard. We just have way more media to talk about it now.
Not posible mh17 "dirty work" ukraine too cause plans look likes russian flags😮
American foreign policy before the military contractors get our money: "Russia did it!"
American foreign policy once the coffers are dry: "Ukraine did it!"
Germany needs to file Article 5 now.
Seen that most people can’t use common sense I’ll tell you how to use it, when something big happens ask yourseld, who profits the most of it, usually that gives you the answer
Wait, wasn't this a "conspiracy theory" at one point?
C’mon guys. You both know the US was completely behind this. I would think by now you would know that the US government lies about EVERYTHING! Especially covert operations. Zelensky knew too. Biden said himself he wanted Nordstream 2 destroyed. Keep it real.
And it was just a coincidence that the US had just finished a LNG pipeline to supply our allies with needed gas, with just a LITTLE BIT of a extra cost of their usual cost.
This is the fall guy! Come on people! Read the better comments below. Spot on!
I mean, first of all, if Ukraine blew up a German pipeline, we should by rights be attacking Ukraine in defense of our NATO partner. And given that the US monitors literally all activity in the Baltic, it's pretty clear that the US has been 100% aware of who did this from the start, and covered up an act of international terrorism against a NATO country, which should be a problem, but meh. I'd also suggest that some guy being tortured by Nazis in a Ukrainian gulag is probably not a reliable witness to anything, so the idea that "now we know the truth" is just stupid. But even if we go with it, the US gave material support to terrorists attacking NATO. But hey, we give material support to terrorists on the regular, so oh well. JFC I can't wait to get off this planet.
Ukraine taking the fall makes sense. Designed to deny Russia the option to blame the USA for it.
well… my comment got removed, probably because youtube has an agenda, but i ask again, does that make ukraine a errorstate [put a t in front], and does that mean everyone supplying them is supporting international errorism [again with the t].
europe should withhold all aid and not start accession negotiations with ukraine until they fixed the damage and extradited the guilty…
Trump will bring us to War… he didn’t…. Biden will bring us Peace… he didn’t….. lol Mega MAGA2024!
3:24 – I don't recall, did the blowing of the pipeline lead up to someone somehow trying to draw the USA into the war? I don't recall even discussions of us entering the war due to the pipeline. In fact, we were all pretty amused at Germany's failure to predict their energy future at that point – but that's about it.
I'm glad it was the Ukranians (if not the Russians) – it was their enemy's profit maker, so it's a damned good target.
Note that the counties impacted by this don't care. Saggar cares because he is a Putin pal.
Shame on Ukraine!
they’re taking the hit so US can keep funding them so easy and transparent
So… no mentioning of Seymour Hersh's article and detailed description of the whole thing because some ukrainan said something? not even mentioning that version?))
The "new mainstream" sounds like the "old mainstream".
Democrats got played by Ukraine like a fiddle 😂😂😂
