Summarization
Pulitzer Prize-winning investigative journalist Seymour Hersh alleges that the US, Norway, and NATO were behind the sabotage of the Nord Stream pipelines in the Baltic Sea.

1623677815450132495 | “Blog Post”. Seymour Hersh is a veteran journalist, yet that’s what some media are calling his explosive piece, confirming the US and Norway blew up the Nordstream pipelines. The fact he published on Substack doesn’t make it a blog post. It’s an indictment of legacy media. https://t.co/eWBkQYhI0G | 2318 |
