benalvino3: there is nothing like Beggarly nation. to you, it is anyone who does not bow. Brussels stays in its bubble and dictates where a nation can fish and when in its own water. BS.
the EU is not buttering their bread oga
They know who is buttering their bread by the delta Y of their GDP per Capita chart from when they start associating with EU. Leave fishing talks for fishermen, those who count the money know what they are doing in EU.
benalvino3: . to you, anything that does not go Brussel's way should be vilified
If they were not a beggarly nation, they should hold a referendum on leaving EU altogether if it sure them that Russia can butter their bread better. EU has been opposing a despot and they have been supporting him, so they should pick sides finally.
basilico: Hungary is not a democracy Eh? they held elections where US and EU grossly interfered but Orban won handsomely with a two thirds seat majority.
I did not tell you anything. I only explained to Ben why Hungary is holding referendum on sanctions - as a reaction to the EU vote to brand them an autocracy.
popizaino: Every professional footballer is expected to be able to control any ball coming directly above their heads,where you separate the ones with sweet first touch from the onces without is from the scenario i described above,those ground pass that is hit so hard with your opponent closely at your back. ........Drogba would have made my list if i wanted to go by your assertion but a meticulous observer like me has seen him failing a quite number of times and also gotten it perfectly some times.
Drogba air control was the best but his ground control was almost Lukakuesque especially in his first two years
Orban has always been a black sheep through this process and is a self avowed Putinphile. He and Erdogan are the only ones that haven't formally signed off Sweden and Finland ascension into NATO. He is butthurt and getting aggressive because EU voted to declare Hungary an electoral autocracy and he promised reprisals. He is using referendum to back Putin, so he can wash his hands and say it's the will of the people. If care is not taken, Hungary membership of EU will be put on the table.
swiz123: Jorginho is the best DM Chelsea has ever had, dangerously behind Makalele.
Foolish boy.
Hensbrain of leprous fingers crew
swiz123: He can't fit in at Chelsea due to our style of play which isn't unconnected to the physicality of the league. However, the argument was between Jorginho and Bousquet, and the later will obviously do better at Chelsea than the former...
I wake up everyday thanking God for my physique cos I can't imagine myself looking as Lin and weak as Jorginho.
when we had Fabregas, he compensated for his sluggishness with his precision passes which accounted for his many assists. Jorginho is an all round disaster whose presence does not only undermine, but also displaces Kante.
benalvino3: the experts who work for the government and tell you that there are more than 2 genders?
an expert is as good as the agenda of the globalist he works for. we know Of covid crap and many more.
the Nord Stream 1 and 2 were sabotaged, Russia shut down one earlier this month because of an Oil Leak in one of their Pumps. it does not mean anyone should blow it up.
this is dangerous.
So if you believe Russia's word that Nordstream 1 was shut down due to oil leak, why are you forming pseudo engineer to ask why gas is in the pipe
Gas was in Nordstream 2 pipe as early as October last year for tests without a single cubic metre being delivered to Germany
But based on Basilico QAnon theory that if gas is in the pipe, Germany must be collecting gas clandestinely, I should throw away everything that has been reported and known in the industry. And you guys claim to be Engineers and Scientists? I wouldn't let you guys change even my lightbulb if this is your approach to science and engineering. Conspiracy comes first, science is secondary with you anarchists. Of course gas can sit in a pipeline if constant pressure is not applied to keep it flowing.
benalvino3: the Sanctions, they are even putting on Russia, some countries are holding referendums if they should stick to Nation Sanctions or Remove them since they are suffering from them.
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
basilico: I know that but I assume gas is pumped from one end and the other end 'sucks' it if pressure is low Or leave it open .How would dormant gas be sitting there unless Germany shuts down the incoming, trapping gas already sent to them.
hint hint. Germans have been getting the gas. Its only PR that the supply is shut.
basilico: Who reallly stands to gain from sabotaging the pipelines?
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: Why is gas leaking to the surface if its not been in use?
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.
benalvino3: She had a presser saying if Russia invade Ukraine one WAY OR ANOTHER nordstream two will not move forward. This was not with Ted Cruz.
That was already achieved with sanctions and withdrawal of certification
benalvino3: That's the same thing Biden was saying. She was referring to many things. There is no sanction the US can put to stop gas from flowing. They can only ask Germany to not use the gas from nordstream. What they can do to directly affect the pipeline is to sabotage it.
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: Russia cannot attack its own Money Cow and Germany cannot stop what keeps them warm. so who did it? If you asking me, I will first look at those saying they will take out the pipeline.
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: are you going to cap for the globalist idiots like sheep all your life?
it was bombed, it was sabotaged. and Biden and Nolan have earlier said they will take out that pipeline. it was not a natural leak because evidence has ruled that out and points to sabotage.
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
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: Promises made promises kept. No gas flowing into Europe through Nordstream. Now blown up with no hope of quick repair. Remember Trump sanctioned the contractors of Nordstream 2 and actual construction stopped only for Joe Biden to rescind the sanctions and it was completed though I do not think it has been fully operational.
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: Europe, brace long cold winter. Get those firewood chippers. Ibime. Go see your Grandparents . With 1000 GBP you get 500-800k ₦ , have a blast then go back and pick a better wage slave job after the holders dies of starvation and the cold.
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: I know Romeu and David Luiz all benched him during Rafa Benitez but it doesn't prove he is bench warmer that you all talking about..
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: Croatia must not win Nations league, I don’t want Modric to win it for my personal international trophy agenda.
Spain must not win, Busquet winning international trophy without Inesta and Xavi will be a big flex for his fans and there’ll be no agenda again to use against him.
Italy winning will have Jorginho fans disturb our peace here instead of focusing on the problems Nigeria is facing.
Holland wining means VVD will have International trophy, a big problem for some of us who uses his lack of international trophies to run small agenda.
This means, I’ll be served a big L one way or the other, but I prefer Holland winning, make me and Raumdeuter chop the VVD trolling and L against Airmark and Ibime, he’ll always find a way to turn amala out of it.
Nations league is friendlies. Worry about World Cup. I bet you can't remember who won the last Nations league.
