You can find the story at this site (in English). It'll take a good 15 minutes to read it, and probably another 30 minutes to really think about what was done. BS-factor? I'd give it a '1'.....he laid out more than a hundred facts, and I would estimate a minimum of five sources when you balance out the whole report.
In short summary? The US knew the invasion of the Ukraine would occur....about 2 months prior. Advisers to Biden recommended taking down Nord Stream I/II. Pentagon and CIA were not that enthusiastic about this....fearing the story would get out. For whatever reason, they needed the help of Norway. Early on, in the first month of Chancellor Scholz's era....he apparently was brought into this and given the landscape of what they were going to do. Biden is the one who 'pressed' the button.
What all of this means?
First, the story has yet to be told via ARD/ZDF (public TV). I'm guessing they are trying to figure some way to make it sound questionable. By Monday, they will have to tell the story.
Second, the Chancellor will be asked in the Bundestag if any of this is true. I think he'll stumble around and try to suggest no one knows the facts. Did he come back from the trip, and blab to various other SPD Party members?
In the end, I think it's a possibility that this gov't could survive the story and continue on.
Third, relations now with Norway or the US? It's going to be rough.
Fourth, the AfD Party to use this incident in their state election campaigns in 2023? Oh yeah....the high cost of energy will be openly discussed and the Nord Stream business will be dragged out into open discussion.
Fifth, a lawsuit to unfold? I would suggest various court episodes to occur, and the US/Norway.....both getting some blame. Whatever the cost is....for repairs.....both will get the bill in the end.
Sixth, on my stupidity index? This is a rock solid '10'. Whoever pushed this agenda needs a serious lecture and to be shown the exit to their current job.
Yeah, so in the end....it was not Russia who took down the two pipelines.
