Your logic doesn’t follow. The pipeline was in construction up until recently. Germany suspended it due to the war in Ukraine, but it was previously intending to use it, and it had stake in it. Moreover, Nord stream 1 was also in service before the war, and it was part of the sabotage.

Do what? Keep Nord Stream 2 from running? Destroying Nord Stream 1?
Neither really makes any sense. Germany threatened Russia on their own volition to stop Nord Stream 2 from running.
With destroying Nord Stream 1 the US gains nothing and besides, if the US actually did say that they would destroy it then why keep the operation so secretive and make it look like sabotage?
