Surprisingly, no CIA; that falls straight on the toxic planning trio of Sullivan, Blinken and Nuland \u2013 neoliberal-cons part of the \u201cBiden\u201d combo. And the final green light comes from the Ultimate Decider: the senile, teleprompt-reading President himself. The Norwegians feature as minor helpers.<\/p>\n<p>That poses the first serious problem: nowhere in his narrative Hersh refers to MI6, the Poles (government, Navy), the Danes, and even the German government.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s a mention that on January 2022, \u201cafter some wobbling\u201d, Chancellor Scholz \u201cwas now firmly on the American team\u201d. Well, by now the plan had been under discussion, according to Hersh\u2019s source, for at least a few months. That also means that Scholz remained \u201con the American team\u201d all the way to the terror attack, on September 2022.<\/p>\n<p>\u2026click on the above link to read the rest\u2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nord Stream Terror Attack: The Plot Thickens What\u2019s left for all of us is to swim in a swamp crammed with derelict patsies, dodgy cover stories and intel debris.
