so what the field china, because fear besides the fact that these a, these, a consultation with taiwan, that the us with actually test the chinese red lines when he comes to taiwan. besides, got the biggest feel, try not ease a contain months. you know, tons of brocade, pretty much the same as the us did dream. what, what you engaged japan, keep in mind that japan went to work is to us because the us was doing a blockade. so when he comes to china, there's a possible brocade in the south china sea, and especially in the strait of malacca, there has been a new agreement by european countries to say scarred oil pipelines across the world . but one nation has been left, so it's not, i'm not sure it takes your luck in powers of deduction to work on the website that is direct impact delves into. that's right. ahead and stick with the

the private buddy program. note, as we've been telling you, we're posting the show every day now, so many of you said you liked it. so guess what used to be a weekly malware daily, cold, no punches. so look for a trip on number one. there's a painful iron in, in what denmark in belgium and britain and germany, the netherlands, norway are now doing trip item number to those countries. wanna make sure underwater pipelines are not blown up. tooth bomb number 3 to those countries to in those countries you know, a lot about blowing up pipelines. i'm rick sanchez. busy this is directive pack

the okay, so this is one of those stories that makes you kind of want to shake your head and wonder i, i've a stupid are they really that stupid or maybe they just think we're about stupid. so here's what's now. 6 countries and we're going to show you where they are on a map. these countries, denmark, belgium, britain, germany, benevolence, norway of norway is important in this case. so it's germany by the way, but let me continue. those countries have decided to come together to build a security a lot else. what is the purpose of this international security consortium to protect what connects them under the north sea pipelines? there are obviously pipelines that travel at the bottom of the north say right,

well, okay, that seems like a good idea, right? make sure that those pipelines are safe, guarded. but when we get into the why, right, why are they doing this? that's when this good idea seems both curious and hypocritical. so let's start with why they are doing this. the reason is this tonight sabotaged it. see that's what president 5 is calling the leaks and explosions on the north stream pipelines pipe announced it interesting. remember that as we go through the story, so yes, on september 26th, 2020 to 3 huge explosions erupt at along the underwater north stream pipeline. sending an estimated $300000.00 tons of hazardous methane gas pouring into the baltic sea. the pipeline belongs to russia, which is used to transport natural gas to other european countries. it was

a devastating pact of sabotage, targeting the russian economy. and more specifically, the russian energy industry. somebody who wanted to heard russia obviously did this . so who did it? who did this? apparently the us and other western countries blamed. i swear you can't make this stuff up. do you know they blamed russia? they blamed russia. and that is the absolutely ridiculous story that the c and ends of the world ran with. because here and let me just say it as a person who used to work at the cnn. that's what the us state department told them to say. we think it was russia. ok? they say it was russia, and that's what they report it's. it's not. but a long comes seymour hersh, for the most respected reporters in the world. former new york times reporter who

was fired by them because he was very honest about stories. considered one of the best in the business. and he uncovers cool, really blew up the north stream pipelines, and it certainly wasn't russia right. he, he finds, according to his sources, that it was an act of sabotage, coordinated by, according to his reporting president joe biden. along with the c i a g f as well as the state department head anthony blinking, and the under secretary victoria know all of whom have a historical hatred for russia and nord stream. imagined all of those people in a room coming up with some kind of plan about how what we're going to do with node stream, right? so in this meeting to try and figure out what they can do about nord stream, according to hers. in his article, they come up with a way to secretly blow up the pipeline using specially trained divers from but maybe diving school in panama city, florida. so immediately we read the article,

i read the article and we got on the phone with seymour hersh and say, and we said, would you, would you mind coming on and taking us through the story. here's mr. hersh in the united states and those who did it, they know the president did it. you're going to another way of asking this question that no reporters ask, going to press conference, the, the, the let we blow up the people i'm and pipe and biting. so k, a group, a, c, i, a officers and other agencies are put together and, and really this year, last year, a year ago at this line, there is something else that hersh uncovers that makes this new story regarding the security arrangement between denmark, belgium, britain, the netherlands in germany so, so peculiar, you know, which country, according to hersh help pull off the sabotage the explosion of these russian pipelines. obviously us divers, the us military, the c. i. but which other country had to know because they needed their cooperation

to do it physically do it. according to hersh, norway. that's right, nor way. the country that more and more is becoming a giant us military installation with extremely. busy this ties to washington, and it has its own energy industry and pipelines who compete with russians north stream project. oh, and guess who norway shares a border with russia. by the way, according to hers, both norway and germany were on the pipeline. we're, we're, or we're in on the plan to destroy the pipeline. i want to talk to you about 2 things, norway and germany. why? when, if germans, germany is chancellor went along with us mister shoals. why would he do that? and given what we know about how this is hurt, the german people don't get that. they've always been worried about the fact rush, it has a norm is deposits of natural gas and oil. tons of it. yeah. for. and the russians

have been selling gas and particularly methane gas, clean gas, that can be business isn't homes to germany for decades since the sixty's. hey. so it's all about the business and the relationship. so no way to, according to her, she may have help bought the pipeline is now joining forces with 5 other countries to help them figure out how to protect their pipelines. okay, would know, right. but that doesn't, that, doesn't that seem hypocritical? and what about advice? by the way, russia in this consortium, if not as a group in the, in the group at least to ask for their opinions that all, that they were the victims of a pipeline explosion. you know, in fact, roger is not even mentioned in their report that i have been reading since they put this out yesterday. and as far as the attack on their pipelines go, well,

every single one of these north sea border or lions countries, or whatever the heck it's called have, have taken the position at this explosion. it was simply the unsolved mysteries. nobody knows what happened. maybe the bible just bought themselves up, maybe was a way or a big giant shocked bit, who knows. and what about the country that according to hers, actually sabotaged the pipeline. the one who's president actually said she would in fact do it. oh yeah. i mean, i don't know if you've seen is or not, but there's actually tape of president biden branding about his plans to destroy the north stream pipeline. here it is different rushing the so that means tanks or troops crossing the, the border of ukraine's again. then there will be we, there will be no longer a north stream to available we, we will bring it out with how we do. how will you do that?

exactly. since the project and control of the project is within germany's control, we will, i promise you will be able to yeah, link i promise you will be able to do it. we'll be able to get rid of the non stream pipeline. and then when the noise stream pipeline explodes, mr. biting is office at the state department. see, i'll go, can imagine it, did it? probably rush. all right. once again, the 1st question i asked when we started this story was what? or are they that stupid or do we do they think we're that stupid actually the us is an unofficial part of this security consortium that we've been telling you about with all these countries. why? well, because the alliance is a part of nato. and guess who is the kind of unofficial head of nato the us

sometimes you just can't make this stuff up or joining me now to talking about it is george from wiley. he's a senior research fellow at global policy institute and the author of the book, bombs for peace nato's, you manage area and war on yugoslavia. and once again, here we are talking about bombs and talking about nato. um, what do you make of this? is there a didn't couldn't, can you find, please find some fault in my premise, in the questions that i asked them, what i just postulated is there it was, i, am i wrong to this whole saying your firm is, i mean, if you can, you highlighted that moment in early february of 2022 when the president buying and he's signing the next 2 chunks of the shoals in dc. and he says quite clearly what the united states is going to do. and then lo and behold, he does it the moment it happens. we have uh the current flow as far minutes,

the products that gorski, he wasn't a farm is at the time sending out any salt and sweet thing. thank you. united states. the lady withdrew that sweet and then you have victoria newland uh, telling sent it to you so you should get this set as a cruise. i'm sure sent it to like me, your delight to the north stream pipelines that just a bunch of rusting metal at the bottom of the sea. and then you had the secretary of state blinking saying, hey, what was his grade? this is a, an exciting opportunity for europe to diversify its energy sources. so you've got the culprits for pretty much, pretty much making no secret that they did it. um, it's only the sort of the very dim bones of the media that for a while when the story that's oh yeah, well i think the rush or did it. uh because uh, because what they do because russia wanted to destroy it. so is it just like every

time it is a terrorist attack in russia is always russia. that's responsible for some reason. they always want to develop themselves. it's uncanny. kind of people, you gotta have bang intestinal fortitude to do and say these things with knowing there will be no impunity. i mean, the person united states, as i'm going to do something that happens and then he says, oh my god, look, somebody did this, it wasn't bad. and nobody asked tim and when, when, when, when seymour hersh, who as you saw, i had here on the show exactly where you are right now. and i had a conversation with him at the time. one of the things that we talked about that i didn't include was that he was being pat assailed by the media for bearing to suggest that perhaps the united states and the west would be involved with blowing up this pipeline. which obviously was either blowing up by russia or it just happened by itself. or as i suggested, a large chunk of you are absolutely right because he was attacked for russia's late

as a conspiracy theorist. you know, that's a conspiracy, as opposed to when you blame me, that was washer. that did it. that's not a conspiracy there that did it. they did it to them. and then of course, the response to pushes story, then the german media and then the american of the british media in. so came up with this alternative ridiculous story about this. um, um independence uh, freelance ukrainians, more involved. nobody knows who they were. they had absolutely nothing to do with the landscape and rest assured it was an entirely a freelance operation. it was a hot baby involved with the bikini. you know, she was part of the project. but the amazing thing is they never came up with a name, just one name or one address somebody that you know, that's the story and the media when with this ridiculous nonsense for, for a while. but now it's all being completely forgotten. i didn't expect that whole

story, but the intrepid the freelance is or just we did this amazing thing going d d, but the war to the freezing cold water released to the bones and blew it out. but this amazing throwing in it. and it's all been put on for the fact is that that wasn't a conspiracy area. you know, it's interesting now though that they're creating this consortium. and by the way, as i think, i stated, i don't know if i made this as clearly as i want it to. that's a good idea. but they should have a security consortium where countries come together to protect something as important as this. i mean, there should have been a security consorting between russia and germany and norway and sweden and whatever other countries i don't know my maps well enough for my geography. well enough to tell you all the countries that surround the baltic sea, but all the countries around the baltic sea should have a pipeline consortium to protect it, and they should put their navies together and work to do i. in fact, i think back now to why doesn't that exist?

is it because if we did that, then we'd have to team up with russia and we're not willing to do that. well, i could well be because obviously as you said in your, in show russia is the primary victim and all of this, it was a russian bill pipeline that was destroyed. and yet, um, within a week or so of this disruption. um, they just secretary general, you installed them but started like, you know, we are your, our energy infrastructure is very vulnerable. but you have to do something about like, you know, it's all ruble infrastructure and not the, you know, accepting of all the as back. but it's rushes energy infrastructure that has been destroyed. and what is it was amazing? is that even in this announcement? no one is asking the obvious question. i mean, what was that? who did it a history of a crime that's been committed as a was backed them in the ask those that with those edward isn't complete lack of

curiosity as to who did it or who committed nevada. um and that's it. and so we had these investigations with us, we investigate investigated my own. i said, oh it does have we don't actually have any jurisdiction so we'll just do it closed down the investigations or opportunities. mama, southern figure. oh, we don't have jurisdiction. and then deadlock, they closed it down and said we just, we were just not getting anywhere with this. but the interesting thing is that them, i've been to police like what you've been working on this for a few months. how about publishing a report? you know, what have you found? you know, you spend, i know 89 months on and you must have found something that we never had a report and i guess the germans and now investigating it or would be borrowing away. and i guess something. yeah. right. certainly are here on there. yeah. that surely are georgia all hallway. yeah. it's a really big, you know, in fact uh, i think maybe sometime tomorrow we might be right most a knew you were in about,

and i know you're a expert on nato. when we come back, i want to push you a little bit to share with us information about how nato the united states and other western countries can get away with these narratives that they're so good at creating that seem to go on challenge george samuel when we come back talking about that very thing right here. stay with us because we've got a lot more to ask about this curious curious situation. the what is part of the is it that the employee would posted isn't the defense you of us and bidding the word or is it something deeper, more complex might be present? let's stop without collision. let's go out of

the the fad. welcome back. i'm rick sanchez, george sam welly is a senior research fellow at the global policy institute and the author of the book,

bottoms for peace, nato's humanitarian war on yugoslavia. and make sure if you reach out to him, you reach out to some welly samuel, as i pronounced that earlier, he won't respond to you. that's his cousin. so it goes towards. so you went about data, you are an expert on nato. i want to understand what made those thinking is when they create these narratives like this one that we're reporting on today. and they all come together and they always seem to have a cover story and they always protect each other. and i get it. nations shouldn't come together and help each other and we should be unified. but when you do it as a group and you exclude other nations, then i don't think it's so positive. and that's what we seem to see more and more. it's these uh, well, in high school we call them clicks. right? the yeah, i yeah, right now the, the,

the big lie at the heart of the nato is that it's a defense of the lines. it never was a defense of a lions. i mean, even from the very beginning when he claims that we are defending the west against the law, so it's helpful for, for the most of the well not to know the most basic fact which is a major was 1st made. it was created in 1949 also i didn't come into existence until 6 years later in 1955. so how happens you to be defending anyone from the wall? so okay. um and then we have this uh, phenomenon essentially late. so, waging one more often another, so it waged a war against the bosnia in 1995. then you just love you. 1999, then it's wage war or guys. libya 2011 is wage war in iraq and left counties and yeah, nature continues this and this defense it well, who is defending whom?

exactly. so you know, i the rest of the and i'll give you a better example. i mean, i don't know if you caught this, but if you happen to see the i think it was a 15 hour interview, the talk across and did with the vladimir button. i think at the time because your button says to him and we knew is, i know guys, i do and i probably noticed, but some people didn't report and said we tried to convince the west the level as join nato. we rochelle, if we are a part of it, but you don't have to be scared of us because we're all in the same team. he even went to them, went to the united states. i believe it was kind of liza rice and said look, why don't we come up with a new d. busy where we share nuclear arm immense and use them against anybody who tries to attack either one of us will hear back and you have our back on both occasions, the west, the united states said, hell no, we don't want to be a joint with you guys. we'd rather fight you. we'd rather be against do that stupid . are you ever use that word way too much today?

pardon me for doing it again, but your thoughts? good. yeah. that, that history is absolutely correct. he did put in a did offer a bill clinton in to 1000, to join me. so of course, when he did that, it made a lot of sense because he said he's essentially saying, look, we've had these uh, security agreements. we have the else thank you. final act of 1975. we had the treaty, the, the chopper of paris and 1990. the whole point of having these security frameworks is that everybody is in it and everybody feels secure. everybody guarantees everybody else is for those. but if you create and the lines that excludes us, then obviously we see this alliance as being directed that of nature has made no secret of the fact that it was, it is directed at russia, rockridge, or god as the enemy. and it keeps incorporating one state off through another, the states that border russia, with a view to walk with a view, obviously to insert russia and eventually weakening and waging war is russia. i

mean, you know, it's very obvious because if they use, if that wasn't the nature of project, then why did they say no to russia saying, okay, well, we were going just as we were 5 of the, the o. s. c were part of the helsinki final act. and as far mentioned, norway is looking like, it's gonna be the 1st, the 1st stage in the united states, pretty soon with all the military bases that we seem to be putting there. i wanna share something else with you. we're learning today that no less than $194.00 were us military officials incentive. amec has breed, which is essentially like a friendly note of information they want the court to consider to the supreme court of the united states. regarding former president donald trump, here's a headline for you, the headline where you can see how it says that giving trump sweeping immunity would bring k also, according to former us generals admirals and military service leaders. what's it about? well, it's about mr. trump, asking for immunity from prosecution because he was after all the press, the united states, as the former generals argue that as mr. trump gets immunity,

us troops stationed everywhere else will feel like if the president doesn't have to abide by the law. then why should we? the generals are telling the court that if it grant mr. trump request for immunity, will threaten to inject chaos in the military operations. and also threatens to damage potentially irreparably, the public's trust in the military. that's what they say. okay, look, while that reasoning, george seems like a bit of a reach. the overall message presented by these generals is correct there, right? no one under any system of governance should be above the law. if you commit a crime, it doesn't matter who you are. if you're found guilty, you go to jail, that's just the way it is. there's no kings here or there. should there be anywhere else. i think so my problem with this brief isn't the message. it's the messengers . former military officials become highly politicized in america, not to mention wealthy when they leave office. i know the media puts them on these pedestals, but i'm not sure that they're take on issues like this is really any more significant

amount of any other citizen. in fact, i think it may even be less. so. what do you think? well, i agree i, i don't agree with you and tell you where you are in the 1st part of what you said, because i do think there is such a thing as solve really immunity? i mean, that's a, it's a basic constitutional principle. going back to the 17th century, which is the sovereign makes the laws, but the solver, it isn't bound by the law because we know the sovereigns do things that we as ordinary citizens, cannot do. i mean, we know, precedents, order assassinations, presidents, older invasion president for the attacks on other countries. they don't get prosecute, just because you know that they, they're acting as heads of state as, you know, acting in the nation's interest. as private individuals, you cannot do those things, but as a, as heads up states that you can so um, but what they doing here is that everybody is always known as whenever anyone has gone through a quote to say, well, i'm gonna assume fortunately you doors because waging of the legal horns on the

notes are always thrown, that is correct and you know what? they think of george w bush. he did it as president of the united states. he has immunity folk but doing it. but what these people are doing is they say, well, i'm sorry, they knew it is fine, except that you don't like the donald trump just if it was the, the, the from the fact that yeah, yeah, yeah, this is um, you know, every how the president can do this, but except for donald trump got your voice the same thing. know when the other thing they do um, uh they, they still go thinking go, they get drunk to bring it criminal charges because he kept is his papers. every president takes drastic bite documents from the white house who is old living there right then ma'am, was ever present this done it. you know, prison has been prosecuted except for trial. while i was not where i wanted to give you a shot at that because i wanted to just not talked about geo politics. i also want to include something else, but we're out of time. my friend george and wiley,

it is always a pleasure having a conversation with you. thank you for joining us. my friend. thanks. thank you very much. michael was a pleasure before we go. i want to remind you of our mission. simple. really. we tried the silo, the world truths don't live in boxes. neither do we. i'm rick sanchez. this is direct impact the, the winds largest democracy votes the rest of the planet watches in emerging multi polar world. india's voice matters, but who will be the power behind watches, almost 1000000000 people decide and billions more, react the as a result of light,
