US helicopter flight no proof of sabotage of Nord Stream pipeline

Compare to yesterday’s Nord Stream take from someone that worked in the field. Deep breakdown and Russian incompetency.

[DW] Pro-Russian social media users claim that a US Sikorsky MH-60 Sea Hawk helicopter is responsible for the sabotage

Gas is bubbling from four leaks from the Baltic Sea pipelines Nord Stream 1 and 2 that run from Russia to Germany and experts and politicians have been talking about only one conceivable cause: sabotage.

"These incidents are not a coincidence and affect us all. All available information indicates those leaks are the result of a deliberate act," EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell said on behalf of the 27 EU member states. Which begs the question: who sabotaged the pipelines?

While many experts point more or less clearly to Russia, numerous social media users claim that the United States is responsible for the alleged sabotage. The discussion was fueled by Poland's former Defense and Foreign Minister Radosław Sikorski, who tweeted a photo of one of the gas leaks and wrote: "Thank you, USA." Sikorski later deleted his tweet, but it is archived here. The presence of American naval units in the Baltic Sea before the incident is mentioned as evidence by some users, including politicians from Germany's far-right party Alternative for Germany (AfD). Some of the claims have gone viral in recent days.

#1 And here starts the cover-up.

You'll notice all the familiar signs - anyone who contradicts the deep state's version is a Russian agent.

Either that, or Nazis like AfD. But don't forget the Ukraine Nazis, those are the good guys.

Deliberately fogging the discussion with "a US Sikorsky MH-60 Sea Hawk helicopter is responsible for the sabotage" when it was clearly a submersible that committed this act of state-sponsored terrorism.

Biden threatens the pipeline. Says we have ways of shutting it down. Poland's man says "Thank you USA" when the event was clearly a surprise to him and he hadn't been briefed as to how to react. Then just as winter approaches, the pipeline is blown up and Russian leverage is removed, along with Germany's ability to beg Russia to turn the gas back on.

Simply ask: who benefits? It's obvious.

#3 If opposition is going to be characterized as Nazi's, I for one would prefer to be one of the Brothers of Italy. It's reminiscent of the 'Sons of the Desert'.
