Seymour Hersh - CIA Covers Up Nord Stream Bombing & Corruption Continues in Ukraine

A wise person once said – three things cannot remain hidden for long: the sun, the moon and the truth. We live in a world of misinformation, that which is misleading, and disinformation, that which is deliberately deceptive. Ironically it would seem that the very same authorities and leaders who popularised these terms are in fact those most guilty of their practice.

A couple of months back I spoke with legendary reporter Seymour Hersh about a bombshell story he broke regarding the sabotage of the Nord Stream pipelines.

On 26 September 2022, a series of clandestine bombings and subsequent underwater gas leaks occurred on the Nord Stream 1 and Nord Stream 2 natural gas pipelines. The pipelines were built to transport natural gas from Russia to Germany through the Baltic Sea, and are majority owned by Gazprom.

The mainstream narrative claimed the perpetrators and the motives were at best unknown and open to debate. But, for Seymour Hersh, the sabotage was carried out by the CIA, US Navy and the Norwegian Navy, under the direct order of President Biden. To say this caused a stir in the corridors of power would be something of an understatement.

Since that explosive – pardon the pun – report came out, Seymour has doubled down on his assertion and moreover, since claimed that military intelligence alongside the US government has concocted a cover story to explain away the event. Something that has in many ways added weight to Seymour’s version of events and served as a red rag to a bull, at least where Seymour’s journalistic endeavours are concerned.

More recently, Seymour has penned more incredible revelations, regarding President Zelensky, his government and the corruption that is taking place in Ukraine. Seymour claims that the Ukrainian government has been using American taxpayers’ funds to pay “dearly for the vitally needed diesel fuel that is keeping the Ukrainian army on the move in its war with Russia.”

It is another incredible story that Seymour has shared with the world via his Substack platform, where he is part of an ever-growing community of voices and readers searching for answers and more importantly the truth.

Seymour has spent much of the last 50 years elbow-deep in some of the biggest and oftentimes most controversial stories of the day. He’s an investigative journalist, political writer and author, who among his many accolades was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for international reporting.

Seymour has had a long and storied career having first written for The New Yorker back in 1971. He spent time on the Presidential campaign of Eugene J. McCarthy as a speech writer and press secretary, before joining the New York Times in 1972.
