A few days ago, it was the first anniversary of the fact that the Nord Stream was blown up by (regarded as) unknown perpetrators, making it impossible for natural gas to arrive in Europe from Russia via this gas pipeline.
One of the main routes for Russian gas exports to Europe was the Nord Stream 1 and Nord Stream 2 gas pipelines running deep in the Baltic Sea, which were punctured by several detonations on September 26, 2022. Security policy expert Robert C. Castel highlighted this in his Facebook post: Nord Stream was only the first of the economic dinosaurs that went against the logic of the beautiful, new world and were therefore doomed.
Many people commemorated the anniversary of the bombing, Castel reminds, adding: Seymour Hersch thought he was exposing an even darker, even more cynical political chess game in his article published on the occasion of the anniversary.
"Others further colored the reggae of the wire-crushing Ukrainian patriots - with a yacht, a case, a tugboat. In the meantime, they also made sure that the responsibility was transferred to General Zaluznyi. Based on the current big silk festival, he probably doesn't care anyway," wrote Castel.
Rethinking what happened, I came to the conclusion that the question of personal responsibility in connection with the attack is a very secondary aspect - pointed out the analyst, who also explained why he thinks so:
"Because the reasons for the destruction of the Nord Stream are systemic and follow logically from the world order change taking place before our eyes".
In the post, Castel explained what he meant: "In the old, unipolar world, security policy issues of global importance were taken off the table by the US, which exercises the main power. When there is no real opponent on the field, then the world is one huge buffet and it is not a tragedy if our ally becomes dependent on energy from a former enemy".
“However, in the new multipolar world, each alliance bloc eats at its own table. Yesterday's rational economic decision in today's new world order is considered disloyalty, a betrayal of the allies," Castel stressed, according to whom this is the reason why the German government did not protest the attack.
"Why would he do it? "Finally, someone came who washed away the shame of betrayal, if not with blood, but with climate-depressing methane," he added.
According to Castel, "it is likely that there are a few million other targets in this white world that, like the Nord Stream, were legitimate economic enterprises yesterday, but today bear more and more the stamp of disloyalty towards the federal system."
If someone is now thinking of Europe's relations with China, for example, they are looking in the right place, added the analyst, who said that Nord Stream was only the first of the economic dinosaurs that went against the logic of the beautiful, new world and were therefore doomed to destruction.
"Now we just have to be careful not to be near them when the Ukrainian patriots or American "seals" playing the role of Zeitgeist sames are rowing right there," Castel concluded his post.
