who could’ve seen this coming
“Seymour Hersh? Isn’t he that whack job who was [right about literally every word he has ever published]?”
Fantastic read, too detailed and too plausible to be fiction. Of course everyone here knows it was the US, but it’s good to have confirmation. I am sure this little piece of information will “die in darkness”
It’s not proof at all. It’s credible because it adds a nice story to the only realistic explanation for what happened. Even if it’s totally made up and the “real story” came out twenty years from now whatever the real story is would be pretty much the same because… this is basically what must have happened because the US government and military are pretty much the only ones who would want to do this and would be able to do this.
Seymour Hersh has publicly announced he has suicidal tendencies :stalin-gun-1::cia:
Anyone that thought otherwise was deluding themselves.
Can’t wait to hear what RWN says about this.
They refused to give an opinion on who did it because Ames is still very embarrassed about the bad call on the original Ukraine invasion. It’s ironic though because they had a great episode on CIA sabotage like last month.
Follow up. Ames took the article at face value and came to all the same conclusions that everyone here saw immediately. Between his tone, and the sheer dissonance between his initial take
probably Russia, because the US would never risk it.
…and his current take…
of course it was the US, it’s not in anyone else’s interest and if they got caught red handed it wouldn’t matter because they’d just call the journalist a blogger and the imperial core will go back to work like they’re not starting ww3
…I suspect he’s seen the light all along but is just weary of sticking his neck out to contradict the war machine. Trying to give him the benefit of the doubt I guess.
