Doesn't really matter who paid for it so long as it's intent is to send oil/gas one way and huge amounts of money the other way.

It's infrastructure that Germany and the Netherlands funded. Why doesn't it matter?

Because it wasn't blown up because of who funded it but rather who it benefits most. I'm not saying it's right but it's at least a save thought.

It does matter, as Germany is a NATO member, and the pipelines were critical infrastructure and blowing them up would be an act of war.
