Retaliate by blowing a hole in the Baltic Pipe?

If this happens, talk about a dark and cold winter in Europe.

Why would they retaliate to their own sabotage?

I’m more convinced every day that you are OMLandshark’s other, more-Euro centric personality.

Putin's ego has been bruised by the Ukraine fiasco. I think it's safe to assume that he will do anything/whatever it takes to regain respect for himself, and Mother Russia.

He will not be backed into a corner by our Dementia Patient In Chief. I fully expect him to blow it sky high, and I'm 90% certain that he will resort to small nukes within a few weeks.

Trump predicted this. They laughed.

Do they laugh today, I wonder?

i think they will retaliate in kind by blowing up the other pipeline so europe has no hope of any gas for heating this winter.

and its all 100% bidens doing, intentionally

the whole reason to destroy putins pipeline is so everyone has to use the other more expensive pipeline coming from europe. its only affordable if there is no other options, which is the situation biden just manufactured

I’m not sure what Putin could do at this point which he isn’t already doing. His hostage is dead. Putin’s only card left is the nuclear one, which you can only play once and wins you nothing but a Pyrrhic victory.

It's a pipeline to take N. Sea gas to Poland...had been in works for years as a big push for years prior by Poland to get off Russian gas...apparently the Poles saw the danger well ahead of the Germans:

quote:

Piotr Naimski and his colleagues in Poland’s Energy Ministry had been racing to fully cut Russian gas imports late this year after Moscow’s invasion of Ukraine. But Russia’s abrupt decision to stop deliveries this week is forcing Poland to go it alone months ahead of schedule.

Poland’s success or failure in coping without Russian gas will help guide other European nations that are facing similar breaks with Russian energy — either by their own choice or the Kremlin’s.

“We are prepared,” Naimski said in a Polish radio interview Wednesday morning, hours after Russia informed Poland it was ceasing deliveries. “We have the ability to bring enough gas to Poland, so that there is enough for everyone. We can remain calm.”


quote:

In an interview at his Warsaw office late last week, Naimski sketched out his grand plan — more than 20 years in the making — to switch to gas from Norway, the United States and other allied nations.

Gesturing toward a wall of maps, the 71-year-old secretary of state for energy infrastructure showed off a nearly completed network that Poland has spent years building: a multibillion-dollar terminal to import liquefied natural gas via ship, a spiderweb of pipelines crisscrossing Poland and connecting it to friendly neighbors, and an undersea pipeline from Norway scheduled to be opened Oct. 1.

Will calling trump supporters - 'extremists', fix the problem? That's sort of all the Biden regime has. So if labeling trump supporters as extremists doesn't fix the issues with Russia and Ukraine, we're all out of ideas.

Retaliate against who? You seem to believe that we did it so why would they go after some pipe in the North Sea?

By doing what? Nukes? That is literally all they could do. The country cant defeat Ukraine, and is trying to draft folks with 1000s fleeing the country by the day

At this point why doesn't the United States just declare war on Russia. it is clear that this is what the Biden administration wants. just a little conventional war. no big deal, Russia is too weak and it would take less than a week for the US to completely liberate the whole of Ukraine.

this is the war that boomers have been waiting for their whole lives.
