hahaha. Finger pointing has certainly started galore!
I am just tired of Eric Holder's outright trolling. He doesn't do it on other topics. Not that I've noticed. Just when it comes to Ukrainian Nazis.
German Government Suspects Russian Gas Pipelines Were Deliberately Sabotaged
I wonder if the Germans will turn against America and NATO when they realize that the US will literally let them starve and freeze in order to keep the war going in Ukraine.
It seems a NG leak that big would stink to high heaven.
We are so f#$@*&. This is out of control. Who doesn’t think Biden cohorts are behind this….
Putin is no worse than, say, Xi, but there is no hate for Xi among the same people. Why not?

Because they listen to the lying ass news media. They hate who they're told to hate.

I am pretty sure if Xi invaded Taiwan and caused tens of thousands of deaths in a ham-fisted and embarrassing military display holding chip markets hostage causing a worldwide recession (as Russia is doing with Ukraine and energy) - there would be plenty of hate for Xi.
Question is - will the Putin defenders/excusers be Xi defenders/excusers when the time comes?

Taiwan is a small island of no consequence to anyone in the West

The top three exports to the USA from Taiwan are computers, computer chips and computer parts based on dollar value.

Yeah, for modern life to continue to exist as it has, Taiwan is hugely important. Good luck getting a new or used car WORSE than covid times if China makes a move. Car values would double. And that's just one industry.
Also with regard to NS pipeline break. Why is China not on the list of bad actors? I know Biden said blah blah. China benefits bigly by this. Russia is going to need to sell their LGN somewhere to keep the war go...
@socal2 You don't seriously believe that the worldwide recession is due to Russian energy do you? Remember how the whole world was shut down for a year or two to boost the profits of Pfizer? That is the primary cause of the worldwide recession.
So what? Same argument as for buying shit from Chyna. Stop depending on other countries and return manufacturing to the US! Energy and manufacturing independence is fucking easy to achieve for a huge country so rich in natural resources like the US - we should not be depending on anyone. Trump showed the way briefly. Fucking Taiwan should be depending on us not the other way round, it's insignificant geopolitically. Time to reverse course and throw the leftoid and neocon bums out.

I don't disagree, but the prices of everything shoots through the roof with either outcome. Shaquanda on the South Side of Chicago having the price of her cell phone, car, etc. all doubled is and would cause unrest, crime and maybe revolt.
Not sure which company, but they are bringing some chip making back to the states after Covid. But I think it's still years from being online and ...
Hell my wife makes more than engineers, doctors and attorneys golfing, taking people out to lunch and sitting at conferences. I don't consider it work, but good for her and good for me.
China benefits bigly by this. Russia is going to need to sell their LGN somewhere to keep the war going. Hell to keep the country going.

Blasts detected near Nord Stream pipelines amid leak – Swedish seismologists
Scientists in Denmark and Sweden registered underwater explosions near the Nord Stream pipelines on Monday, when several major leaks were reported. Sabotage is now suspected as a key reason for the damage.
“There is no doubt that these were explosions,” seismologist Bjorn Lund with Sweden’s National Seismology Centre (SNSN) told public broadcaster SVT on Tuesday.
The Danish military released aerial footage of the leaks, showing large spots and visible bubbling in the water. Nord Stream 1 suffered two leaks northeast of the Danish island of Bornholm, while Nord Stream 2 was damaged south of Dueodde, a beach located at the island’s southernmost tip, the military noted.
Earlier in the day, Moscow said it has been looking into the reasons behind the leaks, suggesting the pipelines were targeted in an act of sabotage. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said that currently “no option can be ruled out” on the causes of the incident.
The Nord Stream 1 pipeline was completed in 2011. Construction work on Nord Stream 2 began in 2018, and suffered numerous delays due to political pressure and sanctions from the US. The pipeline was finished and pressurized in September 2021, but never actually got online.
Two days before the start of Russia’s military operation in Ukraine, the German government put its certification on indefinite hold, and has repeatedly rejected any suggestions, both domestic and from Moscow, to open the pipeline.
