Specialized U.S. Navy diving teams carried out the bombing attack against the underwater Nord Stream pipelines which supply Russian gas to western Europe during a top secret mission overseen by President Joe Biden, a bombshell report claims
Divers planted C4 explosives on three Nord Stream pipelines in June 2022 which were detonated three months later using a sonar buoy which broadcast a signal that triggered the bombs, according to the report.
The attack was carried out in response to Vladimir Putin‘s invasion of Ukraine and designed to force Germany and other European nations to end their reliance on Russian gas, it is claimed. The move would also disrupt Moscow’s income from gas sales – which have contributed billions of dollars to its war effort.
The sensational report by Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Seymour Hersh, published to his Substack, cites a source ‘with direct knowledge of the operational planning’ behind the alleged plot.
More… US bombed Nord Stream gas pipelines, claims investigative journalist Seymour Hersh
The bombing of the Nord Stream underwater gas pipelines in the Baltic Sea was a covert operation ordered by the White House and carried out by the CIA, a report by a veteran investigative journalist claims.
Seymour Hersh, a Pulitzer Prize-winning reporter, has claimed that US deep-sea divers, using a Nato military exercise as a cover, planted mines along the pipelines that were later detonated remotely.
In September, a series of powerful explosions destroyed the Nord Stream 1 and 2 pipelines that run through the Baltic Sea from Russia to Germany and provide cheap gas to mainland Europe. The attack was soon revealed to have been a deliberate act but no culprit has yet been identified.
Evidently this statement by Biden indicating destruction of the pipeline was an option moved the sabotage plan from requiring it be reported to Congress as a covert act to one that could be done without scrutiny.
Pres. Biden: “If Russia invades…then there will be no longer a Nord Stream 2. We will bring an end to it.”
Reporter: “But how will you do that, exactly, since…the project is in Germany’s control?”
Biden: “I promise you, we will be able to do that.” https://t.co/uruQ4F4zM9 pic.twitter.com/4ksDaaU0YC

Many have suspected the US was behind the pipeline sabotage and speculated it was done to keep Germany and others in line.
How will the European public react knowing that rampant inflation and fuel shortages were caused by an “American Plot?”
My God if this is true then tax payers are picking up the tab for a proxy war that benefits Big Oil and the armaments’ industry. Didn’t Eisenhower warn us about this?
The weakest and most doubt provoking part of the story is that “Biden oversaw the operation.” Your views on the reliability of the report’s author Hersh may also vary.
A few thoughts…
-
- The Deep State put this past the senile old fool, Biden had little to do with it.
- How will the American public react?
- The Euro states, especially Germany now have reason to cease aid to Ukraine and their citizens may compel them to do so.
- NATO may find itself in quicksand.
