benalvino3:There is no country holding referendum except the Putin lapdog Victor Orban who has always been that way Stop spraying far-right talking points manure all over this thread |
benalvino3:You must know more than all the experts and all the countries who know why gas is sitting dormant in the pipe as reported by all the news agencies. Problem with anarchists is they never defer to experts and mistrust everyone. |
basilico:Ask Al Jazeera, I'm not a gas engineer
|
basilico:Russia as I have spelled out in the post you quoted. None of the Western allies have anything to gain by commiting acts of war on each other. Russia's first response to the bombing was to let the world know that USA and UK pipelines are not safe. A wonderful way to put pressure on Europe by blowing your own non-functioning pipeline and then sowing doubt in Europes mind that they will freeze this winter if Norwegian pipelines are attacked if they don't back off from Ukraine. The bombing occured right next to the Norwegian pipeline which is menacing signalling |
basilico:There is gas in both Nordstream 1 and 2 but it is not being pumped into Germany. It's dormant gas sitting in the Nordstream 1 pipeline as at the time flows were stopped. Flows were stopped on 2nd September. It would soon ease itself out. For Nordstream 2, it is dormant test gas in the pipeline, though Nordstream 2 has never been online.
|
youngZee23:Probably |
benalvino3:Nordstream 1 has not been flowing for a month cos Russia stopped it Biden and Nuland and Ted Cruz promise was only to stop Nordstream 2 and it was achieved. |
benalvino3:That was already achieved with sanctions and withdrawal of certification benalvino3:If Nordstream 2 is not within USAs gift to stop, why was Ted Cruz pushing to have it written into law to stop it in the USA? Of course you know that USA can sanction any company working with Nordstream 2 such as Siemens, Rolls Royce etc and take it off line forever. They can only lay pipes, they cannot pump gas without turbines, technology etc from. companies that fall under USA say so, that's why Merkel had to go begging Biden to lift the sanctions. Same way both John F Kennedy and Ronald Reagan sanctioned Nordstream 1. USA can absolutely stop Nordstream 2 from a technical aspect by ensuring no company that works on it will ever eat again, while Germany can stop it's certification. Both have power to stop it using legal means. benalvino3:It is not a money cow for Russia in the short term as flows have been stopped for a month now. It can always be fixed in the medium term when Russia needs it to be. But the implied threat to Norwegian pipelines in the short term is pressing to Europe and pressing on Europes ability to warm itself this winter. USA can never attack its allies infrastructure in International waters. It's an act of war and the surest way to break up the alliance against Russia. You must be new to Russian psychological game. This is just one of their escalation levers to put pressure on Europe and divide it. 10% of the dumb ones will believe it's USA, while 50% of the wise ones will know all Norwegian pipelines are under threat and want to deescalate so Europe is not at risk this winter. Both achieve Russia's aims. |
benalvino3:As usual, you blockhead have been to your far right sources to watch snippets out of context and have your dim-witted brains filled with propaganda. Of course Biden was referring to sanctions which he did. One day you argue Biden allowed Nordstream 2, next day you argue that Biden bombed Nordstream 2. Nuland was responding to Ted Cruz who asked if she will support his bill to ban Nordstream 2 permanently. She did not want to commit to his bill which is foolish and takes away both executive privilege over Nordstream 2 and Germany's right of say over Nordstream 2, plus forever takes Nordstream 2 off the table as a negotiating chip with Russia. So she told him not to worry that Nordstream 2 will never come back while he kept pressing her to support permanent ban of Nordstream 2. Of course she was referring to sanctions and the Germans not tolerating Russian behaviour in Ukraine.. USA is not a rogue state that will attack infrastructure owned by its allies. You must be new to Russian psychological tricks. This is a message to Europe that none of their pipelines are safe and Norwegian pipeline is under threat, in keeping with their stated aim to freeze Europe this winter, and let them know all bets are off if they continue to support Ukraine https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TmPHA3honBw |
Don't be surprised to see Norway's pipeline blown up next. . . and my bet would be by the same people who blew up Nordstream as a pretext to attack the Norwegian supply since they can't supply anymore |
basilico:Germany cancelled certification of Nordstream 2 at the start of the war so that was the context of that statement which you are trying to twist to fit the bombing basilico:UK prices capped at £2.5k per annum for a typical household usage by new Prime Minister. My usage is more than the typical household but I had already fixed mine at the start of the war at a rate lower than the Govt rate. Ontop that, Govt is giving everyone £400 off their bills from October which means I will pay less than £2k for the next 12 months, about the same as I paid last year. UK does not use Russian gas even before the war, we are only subject to the price of American LNG

popizaino:At least let your guys know the truth of the above. Romeu, bench Luiz, bench Ramires, bench Matic finally came and strapped him in for years before a career of sokugo disease in useless and far-flung clubs |
donstan18:Nations league is friendlies. Worry about World Cup. I bet you can't remember who won the last Nations league. |
teeshet:Yet sat Mikel down How many useless clubs Mikel done wonder after finally leaving his place on Chelsea bench where he had sat for 4 years? |
kingthreat:Is Cuba part of the West? |
gambojimeta:USA is the ultimate protector of Turkey against their ultimate foe Russia Even despite suspecting USA of being behind the 2016 Coup, Baba still dey prostrate for USA anytime |
popizaino:I did not know 20 year old Oriol Romeu and David Luiz that sat Mikel down are world class DMs |
basilico:Promise fulfilled with the sanctioning of Nordstream 2 which was brought to an end at the start of the invasion For any other MEND pipeline bombing tactics, refer to the rogue state of Russia |
Obrigardo:Italy Govts usually last around 9 months on average |
We gave them the morning to celebrate Mikels retirement and we thank him for his great 2012 UCL performance, although we note that they were under bus parking conditions where no running is involved and conducive to a snail to sit in 18 yard box for 90 minutes without having to run. But any attempt to extend the celebrations past 24 hours and start to misyarn, we would hit them with some home truths. |
donstan18:When fit Mikel sat on the bench in Club World Cup and Europa final without seeing a minute on the pitch and sat on the bench throughout the Europa semifinal Europa league, he was available for 8 matches, started 3 dead rubber when we had won the first legs and benched for the rest This is in a team with NO NATURAL DM, and the only DM was panicking about a centre-back taking his position.
|
donstan18:7 of the easy games out of 14 in a midfield that had no DM and was playing David Luiz there? Benitez already signalled his intention by dropping him for Oriol Romeu from the off before that one got injured. Starting as a DM for an attacking team is much different from being brought on last 10 minutes to park bus. Mikel so turned Chelsea midfield into expressway and disgraced RDM out of a job, that Benitez had no option but to drop him for 20 year old youth player Oriol Romeu (who ![]()

donstan18:I have set you challenge to tell me how many matches Mikel started for Benitez in EPL. You are so lazy,you are pulling appearance stats which could be one minute. There are those who watch matches and have good memory and there are donstans. I can even tell you that Benitez almost immediately dropped Mikel for a young Oriol Romeo, and if not for an ACL suffered by Romeo, Mikel would have been sent to the Development squad cos even Ramires and David Luiz who are not DMs were higher in Benitez pecking order. Mikel only started 7 league games for Benitez. Prove me wrong. Here's a sneak peak. Numbers on the right are minute he was subbed in. Other times he was benched or not selected in the squad entirely
|
iykofias:E go soon clear for your eye. |
Nigerians in Russia can finally relax. No more "Uncle I need school fees" |
donstan18:Did Benitez start 2012 season? No be you I lecture on how Mikel sat on bench for Chelsea the whole of 2013 showing his CAF 2nd place as Fugazi Who does not know that Mikel was on bench for Benitez. Go and pull Europa League final 2013 and tell me who decorated the bench. You have still not met my challenge posed during the period under question, or is your memory ephemeral? Ibime: |
iykofias:Russia done blow pipeline dey yarn story. Rogue state wey dey behave like MEND boys |
donstan18:Benitez put am with seatbelt for bench |
Ibrahimcoomasie:Putin hand go touch everybody. It was sweet when Ukrainians were the ones getting it, now hundreds of thousands of Russians are getting their lives disrupted |
Uprightness100:5 million rubles is $85k, not enough |
RepoMan007:Poor countries hoping for aid from a poor country under attack? ![]() |
donstan18:Which other managers? Only RDM and Hididnk started him and their tenures were over in matter of months |
