'There may be no clearer sign of an enemy in retreat than his scuttling his own ships, which is what Putin appears to have done on Monday by blowing up the main pipelines for exporting Russia’s natural gas to Europe,' writes Suriya Jayanti

to be gained by the sabotage. That lack of logic is the single factor making anyone pause before attributing the explosions to Russia —they just don’t make much strategic or tactical sense.

That pause is brief, however, given that Russia has been blowing up or shelling energy targets across Ukraine, too. So far in September, Russian troops have shelled Ukraine’s Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant, bombed near the Southern Nuclear Power Plant, and hit the Zmiivska Thermal Power Plant. They also shelled the second largest combined heat and power plant in Ukraine, near Kharkiv.

More likely, but still entirely speculation, is that the Russian leader is merely exacting revenge, blowing up the ship under him in a fatalistic effort to inflict as much damage as possible before he does down with it. Igor Terekhov, Mayor of Kharkiv, described the September 10-11 hits on the power plants in his region as “

by the Russian aggressor for the successes of our army at the front, in particular, in the Kharkiv region.” The likely bombing of Russia’s own natural gas pipelines seems like solid evidence Mr. Terekhov is right.

Biden did it. Beijing Biden and his Shanghai-Wuhan puppeteer stewardship are the true culprits behind it all. And all of current America's constant suffering, at the end of the day. Change my mind.

Review satellites and radar and back track to source..we know this can be done!! So we'll wait and see what shows up...It is being repaired but will take some time.

We don't believe it

I wonder how much is this writer paid by the American DOD or the American Administration.

Oh this Nazi media!.There is nothing unexplained about it . Biden and Newland publicly threatened to stop NS 2 by 'one or another way'. Is this English too Shakespearian for you to understand?

I just can wait to see what ACTUALLY happened in about 25 years on CAll Of Duty: ColdWar 7 😉😉😉

LOSER.

Lol! Sure…

Evidence, please.

No one actually believes this.

It’s gonna get even more serious 🧐

Time magazine isn't even good for wiping a recently soiled colon.

There is no proof of which nation scuttled the pipes. This post is propaganda lol

MORE FAKE CRAP FROM TIME. THE USA BLEW THE PIPELINE UP.....

USA is about to fight for their economy as I see

you think I am stupid

ridiculous

Only an idiot will believe 🇷🇺 blow up it's leverage

The media loonies think we will believe anything.

Everyone watched the video what Biden said about the Nord Stream pipelines! He really did what he said, not only a empty promise!🤣🤣🤣

Funniest thing I heard this week, why isn't it that U.S. blows the Russian pipelines but claims Russian did it to himself?

Why you always lying

Mahsa_Amini

Shame, TIME has gone out of mind. Say it is a State Terrorism. Say the only one who benifit from is UNited States.

People are not stupid, This act is Sabbotage. State Terrorism. No one benifit but United States. It is a Dagger on the back of Germany and Europe. NATO allies?.

wait, so your title insinuates that without a doubt russia did this. that's either the absolutely most disgusting example of propaganda I've ever read in my life and really shitty 'reporting' or you know something not a lot of people know, so which is it?

Wow, I'm amazed! While the whole world is 'clueless' on who did this, you seem to have cracked the case! 👏 Can you share with us what evidences you found? Did you actually dive under water to the pipes, or did someone present you the clinching evidence? Do tell. Thanks!

Seriously Time Magazine? You are just a propaganda mill.

Wow, that’s some serious accusations , do you mind providing some proof, or naming your “experts” (we all know how unnamed “experts” shaped the pandemic)?

Sounds like a Dr Evil or Ernst Blofeld type of over elaborate scheme when a more simple solution would suffice .... like just turning off the supply

Hello Suriya, we are all interested in and will keep an eye out for the proof you have behind this article. As a journalist I'm sure you have this in hand. Thank you 👍🏽

😳🫣

Where is our disinformation lady? Kinda miss her

This report is not only unfounded but it sounds really 'STUPID,, a typical example of misinformation, it is a Crime to mislead your readership... has proven to be complete junk News media..

Lots of ppl looking at this from a simple minded perspective “Russia wouldn’t bomb itself” - but that might not be the case. Putin’s only export is energy so an attack on the energy sector increases the price of his biggest export which he desperately needs to fund the war

Time is FAKE NEWS Biden said it right here

Conjecture.

The spin on this is starting to smell like a fishing boat in August

The whole world knows that the US did it

TIME. you really think us stupid

诬陷普京的成本如此高昂,足以证明普京不是凡人🤣

Russia did not scuttle any of their ships. They just blew up the pipeline, which was an act of war against Europe and the rest of the world. Not to mention the fact that it was bad for the environment.

'Well, we don't believe you, you need more people' - 🐐

I am not defending Russia here , but: First: where is your evidence Second: Russia can close the pipes from its own territory Third: it will hurt the Russian investment and economy..

Mainstream Media you make me laugh. Thee is zero doubt the US military carried this out. Now Germany can't buckle and give up their effort to sanction Russia in order to get their gas supply back. The DeepState ordered this, plain an simple. MainStreamMediaMustGO

The greatest BS l'v ever heard. It is Great Britain who did these. And Brandon promised this long time ago. Now USA is the only sheriff in town.

How can we just blame Russia for this? Where is the absolute Proof? This is dangerous rhetoric and people should be aware of the massive propaganda campaign against Russia. WE THE PEOPLE DO NOT WANT WAR! We want PEACE TALKS TO BEGIN IMMEDIATELY

Where’s the FactCheck when we needed

Hahahahahaha!! 🇷🇺

“Journalism” aka state propaganda

Why not just wield power by turning it off? Russia did it with other pipelines. Why destroy your future source of income? These pipelines would generate a LOT of foreign currency export income for Russia. The official narrative makes no sense.

Next thing you know, stating the obvious that US did it is considered a fringe conspiracy theory and dangerous misinformation.

Gotta ask yourself what motives Putin have to blow it up when he could basically just turn off the tap?

…more pathetic useless unsubstantiated NWO propaganda drivel for the sheeple 🐑🐑🐑 🥴🥴.

Propaganda. American lies again

Wow

Why wouldn’t Russia just turn off the flow to the pipe. So much easier than damaging an undersea pipeline

ElDiabloRoboc Sure!

What evidence do you have that Russia blew up the pipeline? There are many suspects and many who would benefit from blowing it up. How many of those countries were used to come to the consensus that it was Russia and wouldn't those countries have an incentive to blame Russia?

Difícil pensar que Rusia se de un tiro en el pie como lo han venido haciendo los europeos

You act like the pipeline was flowing TO Russia... It would seem wherever it WAS flowing has lost the energy war.

Misinformation

You're just hypocrite, Biden blow the damn thing.Can just for once listen to yourself?.Putin is the real deal,the world need him so much.

US blew the pipelines

How convenient would the Russians have had to destroy a gas pipeline that cost them 12 billion euros? Do we now have to buy Putin's Gas from Uncle Biden? USA Nordstream2

And this is allowed ?

I call bullshit

But it's over now. What's the link with oil situation in the world ? I bet these people don't see the front lines because I think Putin will move to tactical nukes.
