Briefing material for Dirk Pohlmann’s speech before the UN Security Council 26 September 2023 (https://media.un.org/en/asset/k10/k10v7a2hzd). The text is slightly edited.
The USA media coverage.....in particular ABC CBS NBC and the NY Times have essentially I think covered up the fact that this was ordered directly by Joe Biden who had bragged or hinted in advance that he would stop the pipeline.
The NATO governments might have considered this an attack on Germany's economy warranting that the attack on one is an attack on all.
I believe Sweden and Norway and West Germany and NATO and the European Union essentially endorse and approved of this attack on a gas pipeline and all the pollution and climate change and extra high prices and the harm to European Economies. They embrace and coverup an act that would be considered an act of war or international terrorism if someone did it to them.
Can you imagine if China sent an Aircraft Carrier into the Gulf of Mexico and while they were there they blew up an underwater gas pipeline belonging to Exon Mobley how the USA would react. But Europe's "Leaders" are fine with the USA attacking anyone anywhere. Even polluting their waters and intentionally harming European Economies and Corruptly pushing Europe and China to instead purchase Liquid Gas to be shipped from the USA.
I'm calling on. The USA government to release all classified documents related to this crime .......but they are literally still hiding CIA and Military documents from the murder of John F Kennedy....which was definitely done by Lee Harvey Oswald Alone who was absolutely not a CIA or defense department secret agent when he "defected" to the Soviet Union.
Of course I think they are shredding whatever they don't want to release 60 years later ....
Edit/Addition. Substack system won't let me edit top paragraphs....I meant to say that the USA attack Blowing Up A Pipeline Going to and through NATO European Union countries could have been considered as an attack on NATO countries property and economy and NATO could have responded like they did after the violent September 11, 2001 by invoking the Treaty for a collective defense.
If Donald Trump invades or takes over Greenland or Canada all those "leaders who allowed this attack on Europe's Economies To Promote the International Sales and ocean shipping of Liquid Natural Gas......I thought the Nordstrom pipeline sounded to me wasteful and that the money would have been better spent on solar panels and conservation. But to Blow Up the pipeline to promote Fracking Gas USA Sales on ocean ships.....even story how Ambassador Mayor 1% what's his name was Sales Man for USA Gas sales.
Joe Biden did Zero to combat climate change Blowing up Nordstrom expanding NATO and building new military bases in New countries....Gazillions on airports and airlines....2 full fledged wars......(OK 1 war and 1. Mass murder campaign killing probably well over 100,000 people "like shooting fish in a barrel.") Paid for by USA per Joe Biden plus. ..multiple other wars....giving Billions of climate killing rocket ships to Elon Musk per Joe Biden and both calm killing Monopoly Parties....and so must more ......none of the NATO and European Countries have really done much to reduce climate change......
Why don’t you mention in your presentation that Björn Lund, seismologist at Uppsala University, has said the following to the newspaper Expressen: ”We are not ready yet [with our analysis], but what we see here is that less than 50 kg of explosives are needed to cause what we see [Björn Lund is referring to the damage done to Nord Stream]. And it could be the case that even less is needed, perhaps. Maybe 25 kg is enough.”
Another statement by Björn Lund is paraphrased by the journalist: ”According to Lund the new calculations show that the pressurised gas in the pipelines caused the larger part of the energy that was measured [by seismologists] in connection with the explosion.”
The Expressen journalist provides this background in his article: ”Björn Lund […] commented early on and made comments on the explosions, which he then calculated would have corresponded to up to 400 kg of TNT for the largest of the explosions. Since then new calculations have been made in an international cooperation between Uppsala university, Danish GEUS, Norwegian NORSAR, Stanford and German BGR. The study will be presented in December at an international conference in San Francisco, but Expressen is able to reveal som the conclusions in advance.” (End of quote from Expressen https://www.expressen.se/nyheter/mindre-an-50-kilo-sprangmedel-vid-explosionen-pa-nord-stream/)
Western journalism is a propaganda operation, one needs to look no further than the coverage of an ongoing genocide and ethnic cleansing. Look at the Lloyds of London (insurer involved in Nordstream) court case instead - court records are public in the UK and much harder to propagandise (if you believe in true critical thinking that is, and not just defending your cognitive dissonance caused by decades of Russophobic propaganda).
It would be more helpful if you wrote what you think the significance of the court records are for solving the Nord Stream crime. You should also sign with your real name. An honset man or woman debates using his or her name, especially if he or she is critical of other people.
Thank you for your comment. I have written a response as a regular article.

I have a question about Ola Tunander's presentation on 25 November 2023 in Stockholm (https://rumble.com/v3z1kym-ola-tunander-om-nord-stream-eng-subs.html).
