German officials are pretty much saying that the Nord Stream II was deliberate cut/damaged by a state actor. Ukraine doesn’t have access to the North Sea. It would make no sense for Russia to do it since they could cut it off at the source with no actual damage and keeping it operational gives them some leverage. That leaves Poland and the U.S. Poland hates Germany and Russia and controls another pipeline through Poland. My vote is on Poland with probably the cooperation/permission of Biden and company.

As someone on another site said, this is like Cortez burning his ships. Germany can’t surrender to the Russians this winter now. They’re in for the long haul. They may have enough and get enough gas to survive, but their industry is going to be decimated. I hope you don’t like German cars, guns, or optics. That schit is all going bye-bye for the time being at least. Probably longer than that for the weaker companies.
