🔹"At the last minute, the White House got nervous. The president said he was afraid to do it. He changed his mind and gave new orders, so that the bombs could be remotely detonated at any moment. You do it with a conventional sonar, a Raytheon product, by the way, you fly over the place and drop a cylinder. It sends out a low frequency signal, it can be described as a flute sound, it can be tuned to different frequencies

🔹Joe Biden decided not to blow them up then, in June, that was five months after the war began. But in September, he ordered it done. The operations staff, they initially thought it was a useful weapon they could use in negotiations. But when the operation was completed, the people who ran it grew increasingly disgusted with the whole thing. These were people who worked in senior positions in the intelligence services and were well educated. They opposed the project, they thought it was insane

🔹Soon after the terrorist attack, after they had done what they were ordered to do, there was a lot of anger and disgust among the participants in the operation. That's one of the reasons I learned so much. And I'll tell you something else. People in America and Europe who build pipelines know what happened. I'll tell you something important. The people who own the companies that build the pipelines know the story

🔹Biden ordered the pipelines blown up to put pressure on Western Europe not to stop supporting the U.S. in the war in Ukraine. The war was not going well for the West, and they were afraid of the approaching winter. And the U.S. was worried that Germany would lift sanctions because of the cold winter

🔹What I do know is that there is no way this war is going to end the way we would like it to, and I don't know what we are going to do as we look forward. It scares me that the president was prepared for something like this. And the people who were on this mission believed that the president was aware of what he was doing to the people of Germany, that he was punishing them for a war that didn't end well. And in the long run, it would not only damage his reputation as president, but it would do serious political damage. It would be a stigma for the United States

🔹The White House feared that it might lose its position, that Germany and Western Europe would no longer supply the weapons we wanted, and that the German chancellor might restart the pipeline - this has raised serious concerns in Washington. The point is also that this could be perceived as an act of war not only against Russia, but also against Western allies, particularly Germany. The people involved in the operation saw that the president wanted to freeze Germany for his short-term political purposes, and it terrified them. I'm talking here about Americans who are very loyal to the United States

🔹The political advantage of the CIA is that a president who fails to carry out his plans in Congress can take a walk with the CIA director in the White House Rose Garden to plan something secret that could hit a lot of people on the other side of the Atlantic. This has always been the hallmark of the CIA. But even this community is horrified that Biden has decided to put Europe in the cold to support a war he won't win. To me, that's vile."
