How US' False Flags Record Prompts Public to Trust Hersh's Nord Stream Bombshell Even More

Pulitzer-prize winning journalist Seymour Hersh previously teased about unveiling the mechanism of Nord Stream’s destruction. Despite the media silence surrounding his latest expose, the journalist's research keeps attracting the public’s attention, as the US and its Nordic allies remain tight-lipped about the incident.

"In my view, Hersh is facing a reality which he has never faced before in his long and distinguished life," Hans Mahncke, a US investigative journalist and lawyer, told Sputnik. "His life-long audience of traditional leftists has dissolved. Whereas a Hersh expose in the past would immediately cause a big furor both in media and politics, he is now being ignored. That is an entirely new situation for him. But it is not just Hersh. If the entire Edward Snowden story would play out now in 2023 instead of in 2013, no one would report it or care. This is the new reality we live in."

Mahncke drew attention to "the complete disappearance of the old, anti-war left in the United States," which he called "an extraordinary event which historians will study long into the future."

"Some say that hatred of Trump caused this shift in that if Trump wanted peace, the left wanted war just to spite Trump, but the trend started under Obama and also captured Europe, where even the German Green Party, which used to be fervently anti-war, is now extremely hawkish. The exact reasons remain unclear, but there is no question that the Western anti-war movement is largely dead. In turn, the prospect of slithering into World War III is much higher now than at any time during the Cold War."

Earlier this month, Hersh released a bombshell report on Nord Stream's destruction on September 26, 2022, claiming that US Navy divers, with assistance from Norway, planted explosive charges at the pipeline under the cover of a NATO military exercise in the Baltic during summer 2022.

Observers warn that the destruction of the Nord Stream could be equated to a declaration of war, and yet it appears that Western leaderships are not interested in getting to the bottom of it.
