See link below for the Monkey Werx channel presentation on a possible Nord Steam 2 sabotage scenario.

However, note the current price of Natural Gas:

  1. I don’t know how reliable TASS is, but it can’t be worse then NYT or our msm and the response to the Russian Bridge bombing is impressive reading. Putin appears calm and rational but definitely becoming more aggressive in shoring up new Russian annexes from Ukraine. He reiterates his protective stance of All Russia and his warning to the US and Western allies about the consequences if they don’t stop their illegal and political war mongering and support against Russia. He once again profers peace but not capitulation. The US president on the other hand gives hysterical Armageddon warnings and blames everything on Russia. Are we the people that ignorant or is he just that treasonous before our elections.

  2. On one of his sitreps, Monkey shows a plane flying into the Nord Stream 2 area, refueling, then going out again to the Nord Stream 2, dropping altitude…if you want to see this, go to “Monkey Werx youtube channel” and watch sitrep 9.30.22 Threat Level Midnight–Bobbleheads at Work. Here is the link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jfpw9I01J0o&t=1173s

    1. Excellent find and plausible.
      Pipeline management is not an easy job during the best of times.
      But the lack of price spike in the gas futures is very suspicious…

      1. Regarding lack of market reaction:
        Northstream 2 has never been operational and was forbidden to take up commercial operations. The situation after the ruptures might not have changed expactions regarding gas and cash flow.

        With Northstream 1 the situation might have become similiar with the sanctions. Those in the know, the people running gas operations and trading might have already before the ruptures taken into account that Northstream 1 will be down for a long time once it was shut down.

        1. Again, excellent clarification. Nord1 is critical for ongoing delivery, but Nord2 is TBD on delivery.

        2. Hi! NordStream 1 was down after maintenance in the summer and was not delivering gas either right before the sabotage(remember the whole turbine situation with Canada – it came to Germany, but was not deployed to Russia, gas flow was not returned in consequence in NordStream 1) , so neither NordStream 1 nor Nordstream 2 were in operation.

          First it was said that 3 pipes of 4 altogether (2 in each pipeline) were ruptured, then it was said that all 4 were hit, but now it looks like one pipe (B) of NordStream 2 was not damaged and can be operational, according to Gazprom.

          1. Yes, North Stream 1 was not operational for some time before the explosions and I suppose people in the industry would calculate from the beginning of sanctions that it might take a long time until commercial activity on North Stream 1 could resume.

            BTW, I now see reports in the German press, that gas stores are full and there are no supply problems to be expected.

          2. I also thought at the time of the news on the NS1 and NS2 pipelines that maybe the gas price is not affected because the effect was already priced in since neither of the 2 delivered any gas and the markets maybe did not expect them to be turned on again any time soon – I would have expected a decrease in gas prices on the eventual news that any or both of the pipelines were to be turned on again -but nobody in the political sphere seemed to be willing to do that (quite categorically, German politicians had said that NS2 would not be turned on and that NS1 probably won’t either).
            Yes, the gas stores are full to over 90% – but they represent only about 20% of German gas demand (that means 2 months of supply if no other gas comes in) and I have not seen the actual numbers of what amount of gas is getting into Germany in comparison to what used to flow before February 2022. Those gas stores were ever only meant to balance out any uneven flows from the pipelines.

            The German director of the Bundesnetzagentur (the federal agency amongst other things responsible for monitoring the gas supply) is already in somewhat of a panic mode as private consumers have used ca 15% more gas this September than last year (very warm September in 2021, not now) and ca 10% more than the average gas consumption for Septembers in the years 2018-2021 – he suggested Germany is going to get some kind of “ticker” on the news as to current gas consumption “so that people can react” (sounds a bit like the C19-number-tickers that we have seen since 2020) and surprise! The French government has just stated that they will start an “energy/gas/power report” which will be broadcast after the weather reports on TV and in between TV shows as well “so that people can adjust their consumption”…

          3. My speculation is that energy supply on the European continent is more complex and resilient than the picture that emerges from mainstream media suggests.

            Also the situation with energy supplies from Russia might have always been unreliable. Throughout the last century up until now I think – because… maybe you just have to see the state of infrastructure in the former Sovjet bloc for yourself to share the feeling that substantial failures and outages can be expected to happen on the basic level of hardware any time. And then there are the cultural, social, political aspects that are far more less stable (or less likely following along the lines of straightforward rational assumptions) compared to the standards of western market economies.
            It might be that smaller or bigger uncertainties in the energy supply from Russia have always been a factor and part of the market dynamics.

            Does anyone have a source that explores the relationship between the gas supply and price in Europe with the situation that a lot of French atomic power stations are down for maintenance?
            I have come across statements saying that these outages of French atomic power are a strong contributing factor in gas supply problems as Germany has to counterbalance it by generating electrical power from gas.

  3. The Natural Gas Futures dipped down after the pipeline hit, which may mean a few things:

    1. There are other pipelines that are being spun up.
    2. The governmental and banking freeze on “carbon” fuels lending has dipped demand.
    3. There is another market that is pricing a demand destruction (aka – a depopulation event) before the winter demand really spikes.

    Just some speculation. The other factor is the way that the Biden Admin is being incredibly reckless with the Russian Bear, they are doing everything in their power to get a shooting war going. Could that be the market pricing in demand destruction?

  4. And in the meantime this is promoted in Europe. One that does not know history is doomed to repeat it. This really puts a big dent in my heart. Where is Europe heading?! Sadly, only in German but the cover speaks for itself if you don’t understand German.

  5. If I was investigating the crime the biggest piece of evidence would be the ALA glide module. Where is it? If that was found no doubt some form of Serial Number would be on it and thus trace back to flight unit.
    These weapons are probably laser guided so a drone sub would be needed to paint the target. That sub would also be destroyed by the explosion. So 2 pieces of evidence to be found.

  6. A very good article closing what I first saw on The Saker. Just a matter of time now. But the clowns leaving these obvious trails are almost laughable. Almost.
