Pepe Escobar analyses the Nord Stream explosions and implications
Tom KirkmanIndependent Project Manager
Another adventurous, thought-provoking analysis of Nord Stream explosions and implications, by Pepe Escobar.
=====================
“… The whole operation had to be approved by Americans, and deployed under their Divide and Rule trademark. “Americans” in this case means the Neo-conservatives and Neo-liberals running the government machinery in Washington, behind the senile teleprompter reader.
This is a declaration of war against Germany and against businesses and citizens of the EU – not against the Kafkaesque Eurocrat machine in Brussels.
Don’t be mistaken: NATO runs Brussels, not European Commission (EC) head and rabid Russophobe Ursula von der Leyen, who’s just a lowly handmaiden for finance capitalism.
… Meanwhile, the fog of war gets thicker by the minute.
• It has already been documented that US helicopters were overflying the sabotage nodes only a few days ago;
• that a UK “research” vessel was loitering in Danish waters since mid-September;
• that NATO tweeted about the testing of “new unmanned systems at sea” on the same day of the sabotage.
• Not to mention that Der Spiegel published a startling report headlined “CIA warned German government against attacks on Baltic Sea pipelines,” possibly a clever play for plausible deniability.
● The Russian Foreign Ministry was sharp as a razor: “The incident took place in an area controlled by American intelligence.”
The White House was forced to “clarify” that President Joe Biden – in a February video that has gone viral – did not promise to destroy NS2; he promised to “not allow” it to work.
The US State Department declared that the idea the US was involved is “preposterous.”
● … The war … won’t relent. It is a war against Russia, China, Germany and assorted Eurasian powers.
Germany has just been felled.
China is currently observing, carefully.
And Russia – nuclear and hypersonic – won’t be bullied.
