Are any middle eastern militaries competent enough to blow up the Nord Strom pipeline and cover their tracks?

Prince Choppy Choppy can't even get rid of 1 guy without the whole world noticing. But to clutch my tinfoil hat, if Saudi Arabia really did want to do this, Prince Choppy Choppy could've told Biden "We're doing this, I know you can see us, but be quiet and you'll get your cheap oil, OK?".

Although if Biden took part in such a conspiracy, someone in one of the American intelligence agencies would've probably leaked it out.

It's not very deep. You can buy a tethered underwater ROV rated for 300ft OTS for a few thousands of dollars. Not to mention a camera and an actuator on an anchor. Practically anybody could have done it. Even non-state actors. Hardest part would be getting the explosives in sufficient quantity.

Ever hear about Qatar screwing anything up? Me either.

They have successfully annoyed just about ever regional player, as well as the US and every other major power at times, and yet mange to thread the needle of staying friendly with the US and Iran at the same time. The way they played out the Saudi sanctions on them was a masterpiece, and they are the biggest gas exporter in the world.

No evidence they are involved of course, but there are plenty of extremely competent militaries in the Middle East.

Israel, Iran, Turkey, the gulf states have the money to pay someone who’s good

If SA made a deal like this with Biden, they immediately broke it by having OPEC cut production before the midterm elections.

You would leave debris by doing that. Doing it in a way that doesn't leave evidence is difficult.

What if you use it to just plant the explosives, then have it leave before detonating?
