It's a desperation move to get EU to turn on USA.
Which brings me to my own theory, Biden already said he'd do it so he had no reason to deny it. He's supplying billions of dollars and weapons to Ukraine and doesn't deny that so why would he deny this? If the US did do it they would have coordinationated it with most of Europe especially Germany.
Now, just like the guy in that video, I will say that they're is no evidence either way so it's all just theory. That's all anyone can do here is theorize.
His theories don't suggest the US couldn't have done it, they just suggest that the way it was carried out leans toward Russia.
Even if Swedish intelligence found evidence of US involvement, like an unblown charge, which they probably won't, but even if they did it can't be public and official that the US did it.
It would mean that
1) the US blew up what is part of European energy infrastructure, which would technically be a hostile act on an ally.
2) the US blew up a pipeline owned and handled by Russia, also an active hostile act towards another country and it would be crossing a line that Biden has previously said he wouldn't do.
Instead the official narrative that we have is about whodunnit "sabotage" and it being "a tremendous opportunity" for the US, but that it's probably caused by Russia.
Rolando has already explained everything wrong with the assumptions towards the theory the guy in your video applies, but it should also be noted that the guy is not a civilian, he's part of Danish defence - a strong ally to the US - and he regularly appears on Danish television in uniform as a military expert.
Here he is on AP:

Re: The US blew up Russia's pipeline.
I don't care about media narratives. I also don't care if the US did it or not. Again, to me Biden supplying the Ukraine with billions of dollars and weapons is more "hostile" from the Russian perspective. If it is shown that the US did then I am accepting of that.
I do not agree that it couldn't be public knowledge when we have already seen Biden threaten the attack. And I also find it hard to believe that the US would conduct this attack without consulting various EU leaders and making sure that all are on the same page. Instead you have all out denials and pretty much everyone from the west wanting to conduct investigations of the attack. If the US did do this then they would know that Russia and Putin know it and there would be no reason to conduct a fake investigation.

It's not about media narrative, but about what's official between countries.
Blowing up the energy infrastructure of another country is an act of war. E.g if Russia blew up part of the strategic oil reserves of the US, that would be an act of war as well, wouldn't you agree?
I do agree with you that running a proxy war by sending weapons is very hostile as well(which is why I never supported it), but the US and the rest of the Western leaders made the determination that that's OK, but the line they can't cross is to be an active participant.
I do not agree that it couldn't be public knowledge when we have already seen Biden threaten the attack. And I also find it hard to believe that the US would conduct this attack without consulting various EU leaders and making sure that all are on the same page.
Again, it's an active act of war to blow up energy infrastructure like this and it something the Western leaders themselves said was a line they would not cross.
The US government does things, including covert operations, that benefits itself on the behalf of others, including allies. That precedence has already been set over many many years.
E.g do you remember when all the Western countries were supposed to negotiate and come to terms on a new climate agreement, "for the betterment of the entire world"? Well it turned out Obama ordered an operation to spy on the rest of the Western leaders and tapping their communications so the deal could be worked out favorably for the US government. We'd never have know about this though if it wasn't for Wikileaks, which has since been associated with Russa and shut down.
Instead you have all out denials and pretty much everyone from the west wanting to conduct investigations of the attack. If the US did do this then they would know that Russia and Putin know it and there would be no reason to conduct a fake investigation.
Everyone in the west wanting to conduct investigations on the attack? The US has said it supports an investigation "into the sabotage", they've not sent any equipment nor is it being treated as an act of war from it's end.
https://www.businessinsider.com/nord...lvement-2022-9
Nord Stream 2 AG, Switzerland-based operator of that gas pipeline, said on Tuesday it will examine the condition of the leaking pipelines once a police investigation of the "crime scene" is completed and a cordon is lifted.
https://www.reuters.com/business/ene...be-2022-10-04/
Swedish police finished their investigation today, concluding that there was "gross sabotage", so now the actual operator can apply for permits to inspect damages themselves.
A crime scene investigation of the Nord Stream 1 and 2 gas pipelines from Russia to Europe has strengthened suspicions of gross sabotage involving detonations, Swedens Security Service said on Thursday.
Swedish and Danish authorities have been investigating four leaks from the pipelines in Swedish and Danish exclusive economic zones in the Baltic Sea since they were first spotted at the beginning of last week.

Re: The US blew up Russia's pipeline.
I heard that it could be Poland or one of the Baltic states that did it since they were the ones who opposed Nord stream 2. They knew the leverage Russia would get and they are terrified of Russia, rightfully so.

It's a bad look for Biden because when Biden threatened to blow up Nord stream months ago what he actually did was open the door for someone else to do it in his name. And now he is scrambling trying to prove it wasn't him.
Although I do not think many in the public will understand the reality of that.

Re: The US blew up Russia's pipeline.
I see what's wrong with Off the Court. He honestly thinks that these politicians are actual nice people who are trying their hardest to do what's best for all. When Biden said that there will be no more Nord Stream Pipeline, that he promises he will put an end to it. He couldn't possibly mean it because he's such a sweet man, really looking out for the well being of all living things. And he's certainly not senile, so it couldn't have been a slip of actual plans.
Those in power in the US wouldn't screw Europe like that, because they're allies, friends, all involved are really trying to makes this a better world. For you and for me.

Re: The US blew up Russia's pipeline.
The European Market belongs to the US. All the money and profits made through trade with this very wealthy economic zone are dominated by America.
The US will not simply let Russia start doing business with the EU. Especially the very profitable energy business. American interests lose profits and Russia becomes stronger and stronger. This simply cannot be allowed to happen. Angela Merkel was a great leader for Germany. She realized that Germany needed that Russian gas and, against the wishes of the US, initiated discussions with the Russians and this allowed the Pipelines to be constructed. The US was against it the whole way. The current leader of Germany is a spineless wimp who cannot stand up to the Americans. He was quick to sanction the Russians and stop the flow of gas. However, the German people were beginning protest in greater and greater numbers. Schultz was about to cave and so the Americans chose to blow up the pipeline. That's what it looks like anyway.
Instead of thinking Russia wants to "take over" Europe, you have to rework that a bit and you will get to the Truth: Russia wants to do Business with Europe. That's what this conflict is about.

Re: The US blew up Russia's pipeline.
"Russia becomes stronger and stronger" 
Russia is a 3rd world country with inherited nukes and nothing else.
Second, nobody is saying a shithole like Russia wants to take over Europe. They can't even take over Ukraine without falling on their own ass. Russia wants Ukraine and wants to destabilize European democracies to get someone friendly to Russia in office to benefit Russia.

The Saudis cutting oil production and driving up gas prices with just 4 weeks until the midterm elections (at Trump's request), makes those stolen nuclear secrets all the more interesting don't ya think.

Will the American public be happy to see more billions of dollars of tax payer money being spent on some other country?

Your mind is already made up that it was the US that blew up the pipeline almost like a foregone conclusion. I don't see the point of this thread because you are obviously extremely pro-russia. Anyone saying anything against Russia will blow past you.

Re: The US blew up Russia's pipeline.
Again, I like Blade, but he feels almost like a bot. I don't know if it's mental illness.
8 months after Trump was cleared by Mueller of the Russia, Russia, Russia collusion hoax, Bladef was still going strong with the narrative, because he had no idea that Trump was cleared 8 months earlier. That was incredible to watch.
He writes essays about subjects as if he knows what he's talking about, even though he lacks the curiosity to even read about the subjects. Literally only reads CNN headlines, and doesn't go any further. That's why I feel there's something wrong with him up there.
Like with the Kyle Rittenhouse case, he was writing essay after essay about a case that was all over the news, with every detail beaten to death by the public as a whole, and then it comes out that he hadn't watch a single frame related to the trial.
