Slovakia pulled support, Belgium is saying it's F-16s are "too old," Poland is confused, Germany's Leopard 1s are "defective," and the UK has made no indication it plans to send more Challenger 2s after the destruction of the supposedly "invincible" tank on the battlefield back in September.
Ah yes, because Russia is simultaneously an authoritarian regime where Putin holds all power and an oligarchy where the Kremlin is feckless. If he wanted to prevent the taps from turning on, he could have just arranged for a false flag strike on the terminals or sabotaged the terminals in some other way (which, by the way, would be on Russian soil).
The West's progressively decreasing support? That support?
The "Russian vessel" story is literally the exact same story told about Nordstream. Russia has full control over Nordstream flow already because one of the terminals of Nordstream is IN RUSSIA. Russia gains no advantage from bombing Nordstream, not even as a false flag, because no Russian gives a fuck about the bombing of German infrastructure.
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.
I too enjoy waking up to another false flag operation. It's literally the exact same story used for Nordstream, which is incredibly lazy as far as false flag operations go.
Both sides are posturing and blaming the other side for their ramp up. It's a bilateral escalation that's going to push us closer to nuclear war. Again.
Western media has a really bad track record of always blaming Russia for anything bad that happens. Russia doesn't really need to care about Europe at this point because European aid to Ukraine is drying up at record pace.
It's a false flag designed to rile up European aid to Ukraine at a time when Europe is becoming less and less unified on the topic of aid to Ukraine.
Really makes you think about why Hamas is so radicalized, doesn't it? It's not like you can pull a Muslim out of a hat and radicalize them. People in a stable, healthy, and fair socioeconomic position do not see violence as an answer. People who live under constant oppression, inequality, and fear do.
Russia's already pumping less than they have in decades and has been progressively cutting production. Odd way of making more money.
Ukraine rejects defective Leopard 1 tanks from Germany after finding ‘serious faults’
Sure doesn't sound like it's Germany calling them "defective"
Do you enjoy being wrong or are you just oblivious?
For what it's worth, your entire claim is that Russia had no motive but was too stupid to tell... Yawn.

Russia destabilized the West by... doing no effective work?
Ah yes, because Russia is simultaneously an authoritarian regime where Putin holds all power and an oligarchy where the Kremlin is feckless. If he wanted to prevent the taps from turning on, he could have just arranged for a false flag strike on the terminals or sabotaged the terminals in some other way (which, by the way, would be on Russian soil).
What do you believe Russia gains by bombing Nordstream or the Balticconnector?
Nobody's given one ounce of motive.
Just like the Nordstream attacks were all Russia, too?

Why would the West investigate Ukrainian terrorism when it's trying to get countries to support Ukrainian aid?
It would be a Ukrainian attack on German infrastructure. That's... Not really great when you're asking Germany to supply you with more tanks.

I too enjoy conflating anti-Zionism with antisemitism. Both Jews and Palestinians are semites, dumbass.
I don't know if anyone else has seen the Chinese Consulate in SF, but it's not exactly something you can hit by accident.

Unionization is essential for maintaining and protecting workers' rights.
In case anyone wondered why Israel would ignore Egyptian warnings of an imminent attack, this is why.
War is good for business.
Just like how Nordstream was "totally struck by the Russians," the Balticconnector was "totally also struck by the Russians."
