    1. @Deeds When are you going to be conscripted? All the Russian trolls would garner a few battalions of cannon fodder!!

    1. Did you born yesterday?
      As if EU HAS NOT BEEN filled with knife attacks, truck attacks, thieves etc lol

    1. @james kavanagh Brennon only knows how to tell lies. He made a living fooling others into believing his BS on behalf of warmongers. Funny how Trump is the only one who doesn’t want a war. What the hell has happened to the Democratic Party? They are now the party of death and lies.

    1. There were two certain someone’s. Joe Biden on Feb 7 when he said it needed to happen, and Olaf Scholz on Feb 22nd when he ordered all work to cease.

    1. You have been spotted and identified as a highly suspected Russian troll farm hack!!! (if you’re not a Russian troll farm hack who runs 300 youtube accounts and fakes conversations with yourself, then you are even worse… an unpaid ‘useful idiot’ sucker in the West repeating Russian troll farm Kremlin talking points)

  1. What I want to know is why hasn’t anyone ignited the leaking gas. It’s the environmentally friendly thing to do! It would also be great video.

    1. Igniting the gas keeping the pipeline pressurized would risk further damage to the remaining infrastructure.

    2. Pretty sure that would make repair more difficult but Idk. I imagine you cant really repair it while the pipes are primed so one way or another the gas needs to be removed.

  2. I see Brianna Keller risked her employment by asking an off-script question “Why blow up their own (Russian) pipeline…? Then John Brennan couldn’t come up with an answer that made sense.

    1. @T_hnsn Yes. he did. He said it showed that they can take out any pipeline they want – like the one from Norway to Poland.

      The pipelines weren’t in use, and they can be repaired.

    2. @TooSlowTube If Russia damaged their own pipelines to show others that they can ‘take out’ any pipeline they want then Russia wouldn’t have done it in secret.
      That whole premise is ludicrous.

    3. @TooSlowTube that’s such dumb logic. I guess 9/11 was also an inside job to show Bin Laden we could fly airliners into his cave lair??? πŸ˜‚

    1. International law covers a vast domain involving all manner of interactions. You’d realise it’s efficacy very quickly if it spontaneously ceased to exist. That it, like all bodies of law, struggles in certain specific areas, is not a reason to condemn it in toto.

    2. The United States is not a State Party to the Rome Statute, which founded the International Criminal Court in 2002 as a permanent court to bring to justice the perpetrators of the worst crimes known to humankind. There are 123 members. The US withdrew their signature.

      Now ask yourself why.

      As to who blew up the pipeline, and it would seem at this stage permanently disable it, the answer is blindingly obvious. Get with it.

  3. We know they are lying.
    They know they are lying.
    They know that we know they are lying.
    We know that they know we know they are lying.
    And still they continue to lie.

    1. heh.. so that’s where ‘yes minister’ got this… btw great show if you haven’t seen it.

      “I knew that he knew, and he knew that I knew that he knew that I knew.”

  4. Reminds of a kid trying to convince his parents he didn’t eat all the sweets but his mounth is covered with chocolate.

    1. @hoss188 so they can blame someone else, shut down other sources of fuel for Europe, to threaten, to make a point, & for revenge. Also, putin can’t get it up anymore.

    2. Let’s be real , the Biden administration said they would eliminate the pipeline . They are the only ones who benefit from this . Its pure evil .

  5. You can clearly see how the guy is reading the line… very funny… To make sure he will not forget the words he is supposed to say.

    1. @andri sanjaya That’s why we invested so much in assisting them in rebuilding after WW2, and that’s why the relationship on all levels has been tight ever since. Great place, Germany, btw.

  6. “it is a hunk of metal at the bottom of the sea, i don’t think it will ever be revived,”
    This is a Victoria Nulland declaration about North stream in march 2022

    1. @Hitsu nataraki okay , why is that?? & tell me why it’s wrong to question the narrative regarding this specific story…let me know.

    2. Pretty strange they really dont know who did it while at the same time allegedly informing the Germans of this said event prior to it happening? Hmmm….

    3. @Emperor Hirohito because your defending the invader.. invader’s always the evil one and the defenders are the good ones

  7. After the question why Russia would do that he begins to stutter and gives an absolute nonsensical answer saying they could also destroy the Norwegian pipeline lol

    1. It’s not nonsensical. It may well be intended as a warning. It may be symbolic. It maybe intended to intimidate or be an attempt to drive a wedge. There’s a host of possible readings, and the majority (not all) of them point to Russia.

    2. Maybe this was always Putin plan, we all know he want to break the us and he want to split and destroy the eu. If the war ends maybe the europeans want to rejoin the gas-deal, instead of a no from putin now he can say they are damaged, sorry.
      Which means *die m…fu…*

  8. Poland tweeted β€œThank you, USA.” shortly after the pipeline blew up and now even citizens of England are claiming U.S.A is responsible

  9. The director simply lost me! He says this is just the first and Putin will go after other gas pipelines (like Norway’s). But shouldn’t Putin first take out others’ before destroying his own multi billion dollar investment, when all he had to do is simply shut off the pipeline?

    1. The question would be: Did he say anything truthful at any point in that interview? Almost every point he made wasn’t true: Putin isn’t facing much internal opposition within Russia. There may be some draft dodgers, but they had no problem getting the additional people to show up for military service. Brennan lied about both of those things here.

  10. February 2022
    Biden: “If Russia invades Ukraine we will put an end to nordstream 2.”
    Some Lady asking a question: “How will you do that exactly? Since the project and control of the project is within Germany’s control?”
    Biden: “We will uh.. I promise you, we’ll be able to do it.”

    1. Which is exactly what occurred on February 22nd – Germany halted all work on Nordstream 2 in response to Russia’s behaviour in Donbas.

    2. β€œIf Russia invades Ukraine, one way or another, Nord Stream 2 will not move forward.”

    3. Does anybody have any information on the US warship in the area of the explosion, which was understood to be carrying underwater warfare capability?
