Bitter Opposition within Intelligence Agencies W
On September 26, 2022, six HC explosive packages, each with the power of a one-thousand pound bomb or torpedo, exploded beneath the Baltic Sea near the Danish island of Bornholm. Both of the double-pipe Nordstream 1 lines and one of the double-pipe Nordstream 2 were rendered inoperable. There was also massive environmental damage from gasses released into the water. Nordstream 1 had been supplying 40 percent of Germany’s natural gas before the Ukraine War sanctions. Nordstream 2 had not opened yet. The $25 billion plus pipelines were 51 percent owned by the Russian energy company Gazprom, and the rest by German, Dutch, British, Swiss, and Austrian energy companies.

Chapter 8 - Of Gods and New Friends
Viking Dragon Ship
Ivar again asked, Ketel, “By what name should we address our Creator?”
“His name in the Troll tongue is Jumala. Some call him Ukko, but he has many names among peoples and trolls,” replied Ketel. “Of old, his name in Norse was translated as Eker, which was thought to describe his nature. But be careful. It is more important to know his nature than his name, though any name for the true God should be spoken with reverence. There are many who call upon gods who are not gods. There are many who call his right name but do not know him, for their understanding of him is of their own imagination and terribly corrupt. I judge by your looks and aura that your ancestor was Odin, but he was a man and not a god. He was a wise and great man, but nothing more. Thor was the god of the people who first came to Norway. He was a protector of his people, but he, too, was but a man enlarged by fading memories and entertaining fables. Freyr and Freyja were of the Vanir people, beautiful, but mere mortals; their descendents are mixed with those of Odin and Thor.”

Unveiling the Bitter Weeds of Foreign Policy Insanity
President Joe Biden
On September 26, 2022, the Swedish National Seismic Institute recorded several explosions along the Nordstream 1 and 2 Pipelines southeast of the Danish Island Bornholm in the Baltic Sea. These explosions were approximately the magnitude of a thousand-pound bomb or torpedo and rendered three of the four 4-foot diameter natural gas pipelines inoperable for the foreseeable future. Nordstream 1 and 2 are each double pipelines stretching 759 and 767 miles from two Russian locations on the Gulf of Finland to northeastern Germany. Nordstream 1 had been pumping gas since 2011 and Nordstream 2 had just become operational but was not yet pumping gas. Nordstream 2 parallels Nordstream 1 to its south with a separation of less than one mile. The Baltic Sea depth on their track south of Bornholm is about 265 feet. Nordstream 1 was already supplying 40 percent of Germany’s natural gas. The total cost of the pipelines was $25.4 billion, of which the Russian energy company Gazprom owned 51 percent or $13 billion in cost. German, Austrian, Swiss, Dutch, and British energy companies owned the other 49 percent, of which the heaviest share belonged to Germany.
Ukraine and the American Agenda

It is time to ask ourselves some questions
The November 2013 Warning in the Ukrainian Parliament
Oleg Tsaryov, 2014, Former Ukrainian Parliament Deputy and Victoria Nuland, U.S. Under Secretary of State for Political Affairs.
Should American foreign policy instigate public unrest, violent riots, and regime-change in targeted nations? Should demonization of foreign leaders and peoples be essential methods of foreign policy? Should we be instigating covert or “color” revolutions around the world to advance our national agenda? Should we support the Ukrainian government’s present ethnic cleansing campaign against Russian language, culture, and religion? Does an agenda to divide and destroy Russia have any place in an ethical and sane world? Must we insist on provoking World War III? Or is all this unethical and blundering style of foreign policy going to send us to the bottom like the RMS Titanic in 1912?

Chapter 7 - In the Shadow of War
The two foxes, Skrogger and Raevi, repeated the report of the falcons. Marja and several other captives were being held at Linge. They also reported an even more serious consideration completely unknown to her captors:
Ketel translated from Fox to Norse: “Just beyond Linge rises the Great Troll Mountain under which dwell the Synkasti, the most sinister and vicious tribe of the wicked trolls. It is the mountain over which the Troll Road goes, which some call the “Troll Ladder,” as dangerous a journey as any man has ever made. We dare not alert such a wicked tribe of trolls that we are in the area, and no help can come from Andalsnes or Romsdal if needed. It would mean almost certain death to a small band of men. We cannot ask them to risk it. We can only attack from the fjord or the south shore across the narrow water that separates Eidsdal from Linge. On the other hand, Odd and Sten, your (Ketel’s) are gathering a small force of trolls north of the Geirangerfjord, which leads into the Sunnylyvfjord and then into the Great Fjord. They will be on the march by tomorrow.”
