I know, right. Historical beefs with both Germany and Russia, a history of competent intelligence organizations, a quality military, and obvious current motivations. Yet, every time I bring up Poland as an option, usually I just get ignored.

The time I do get a response, it is usually some story about how only the US has the capability, which is total BS.



Historical grievances aside, no middleman likes being cut out.


Funny you should say that: https://www.reuters.com/markets/europe/gas-starts-flowing-po...

"Gas starts flowing to Poland through new Baltic Pipe pipeline"


That was intended to come under current motivations, but I should have been more explicit. What else are the other Poles around you annoyed about in this situation? Do most think Polish agencies were responsible?


Most folks I know believe it was the US. They think that our leadership lacks the cojones and our military lacks the capability. I believe neither to be true, though I’d imagine there must have been an implicit approval from major NATO partners. Take France for example - Germany getting cheap fossil fuels isn’t exactly great for the French economy.
