“How America took out the Nord Stream pipeline”

I think I would be very skeptical that this was actually written by Seymour Hersh. This Substack was created today. There's no previous history on it. I can't find any credible evidence that this is actually Seymour Hersh.

If it's not Seymour, it sure is very effective propoganda.

Does anyone see any proof that this is indeed written by the claimed author?

The substack was created today, then Russian outlet Sputnik ran the story hours later. Then a hacker news account with pro CCP content submitted this substack.

Why is this rubbish on top of hacker news?

Taibbi, who is active on Substack, confirms using his verified Twitter account:

Reuters reported on it, the White House bothered to refute the story. It is Hersh.

Have you seen the White House refutation somewhere other than in the piece which is the subject of the questioning you’re responding to? If not, that’s a null point.

Yes, and it is trivial to find:

Are people try to derail this story by flooding the submission with innocent questions?

No. Question asked and answered. Thanks.

If there's a lot of facts that discredit a narrative, then people simply stating those facts are not a part of a "concentrated effort".

Your contrarian logic is going to take you down a very sorrowful & dimly lit path in life.

No, but the green accounts are sure out in force to pump it.

Considering the NY Post, a paper Hersh has a personal relationship with, has already written about this blogpost, I’d be really surprised if it was some kind of impersonation.

Hersh is an online individual like the rest of us, I’m quite sure he’d be aware of papers all over the world reporting on something he hadn’t written.

There are quite a few articles popping up saying the same thing from various "news" sources, however they don't appear to be including any links to the supposed "White house" source they're talking about.

eg they could very well be propaganda themselves

Please don't cross into personal attack, regardless of how wrong someone is or you feel they are.

If it weren't written by Hersh we'd have found out very quickly. By now it's surely clear that it was.
