    So, you think Finland launched a false flag attack on their own gas pipeline, in order to do absolutely nothing against Russia. I mean, nobody went to war over Nordstream either, if these are false flag attacks, they’re pretty fucking shit at the follow-up, especially considering nobody really needs a reason to do anything against Russian aggression right now.

      Then let’s play Occam’s razor: who wins if Nordstream is permanently out of commission? Who wins if Balticconnector is permanently out of commission?

      It’s not Russia, because they’re not pumping gas through the pipelines anyway. In fact, it’s rather harmful to post-war Russian reintegration with the EU.

      The easiest explanation isn’t that Russia would attack third-party infrastructure between two NATO countries when, by all accounts, US support is drying up and EU support is dropping like flies.

        You’re reaching multiple conclusion based on zero cited evidence.

        It’s not Russia, because they’re not pumping gas through the pipelines anyway. In fact, it’s rather harmful to post-war Russian reintegration with the EU.

        Show your work. How is it harmful to post-war Russiam reintegration with the EU? Show us evidence that reintegration is even a goal of the Russian leadership.

          What do you believe Russia gains by bombing Nordstream or the Balticconnector?

          Nobody’s given one ounce of motive.

              Russia’s already pumping less than they have in decades and has been progressively cutting production. Odd way of making more money.
