Battle of the bombing narratives... German Investigators Find Nord Stream Evidence Points To Ukraine https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/ukraine-blew-up-nord-stream-2-pipeline-ge... https://news.yahoo.com/german-journalists-investigate-ukrainian-connections-... https://seymourhersh.substack.com/p/how-america-took-out-the-nord-stream Seven months after explosions severed three of Russia's four Nord Stream gas pipelines in the Baltic Sea, German investigators are now pursuing leads that point to Ukraine as the responsible country. At the same time, a multinational consortium of European investigative journalists has also found leads pointing to Kiev. A long-running Western propaganda campaign -- abetted by media that's credulous at best and complicit at worst -- would have us believe Russia blew up pipelines that took the country 15 years of construction -- and painstaking diplomacy to overcome U.S. interference -- to bring to reality.

Rather, BKA investigators are now focusing on a yacht that sailed from the German port of Rostock weeks before the explosions. That 15-meter yacht -- the Andromeda -- was hired from a Polish company, and docked at a tiny Danish island near the blast site. Most strikingly, investigators found traces of "military-grade and underwater-deployable" explosives on the vessel. The Andromeda was found to have traces of "military-grade and underwater-deployable" explosives (via Daily Mail) Given the complexity of the operation, the BKA believes a government must have backed the undertaking, and has found evidence pointing to Ukraine, via a shell company -- a travel agency -- formed by two Ukrainians in Warsaw. According to the team of journalists, the purported travel agency is one of more than 100 entities listed at a single address. In 2022, the travel agency, which had a Ukrainian woman named as president, received about $3 million for no documented reason. According to the BKA's working theory, five men and one woman with forged Romanian and Bulgarian passports entered Germany before using the yacht as a base for expert divers who planted the charges more than 200 feet below the sea. Germans have identified two other people -- Ukrainians -- who were aboard the vessel. Journalists say one of them is a Ukraine infantry veteran. It's an intriguingly detailed scenario -- and quite different from Seymour Hersh's own blockbuster account. Citing unnamed national security sources, the legendary investigative journalist reported in February that the United States blew up the pipeline, in a plan crafted by the CIA with the cooperation of Norway and executed by US Navy divers deploying from a Norwegian mine-hunting vessel. Meanwhile, Hersh has just reported that Ukraine's neighbor's are quietly pressuring President Zelensky to find a way to bring the 15-month-old war to an end -- with some apparently willing to compensate him personally for doing so
