Actually, it is the WEF controlled dhimicrats and neo-cons that have been pushing for a war with Russia. In 2022, there was a tentative peace deal between Ukraine and Russia. Then, Boris Johnson flew into Kyiv and scuppered the deal, and the war continues to this day.

You poke the bear hard enough and long enough, and he hits back. Though most likely not, this could be pay back for the Crocus terrorist attack.

That is a distinct possibility. The sea is always ready to sink your ship and kill you, and harbors and anchorages are also demanding and often dangerous. Even when licensing, promotions, and assignments are based strictly on ability, a good record, and proven skills, poor ship handling and lapses in attention are all too common. Add in DEI and unqualified deck officers and harbor pilots can easily wreak havoc with deadly consequences.

Some individual shoots up a school and leaves a manifesto. The authorities refuse to release the manifesto and bring in the “experts” to speculate as to why the person shot up the school. Case closed. I guess we’ll never know, right? When the authorities refuse to release what the person responsible for the act says, I get real suspicious. Why do you think we haven’t been told other than the obvious. The authorities don’t want us to know the truth. Just release the guy behind the wheel’s story. Why not?

“From what you’ve heard”?!? Why isn’t that “from what we KNOW”? Someone just has to ask and then tell us.
Doesn’t it concern you that nearly 24 hours after the “accident” we haven’t asked the people on board what happened? I’m hearing “bad fuel”, the pilot put the boat in the wrong gear”, the crew was sleepy, turned on auto pilot (which malfunctioned) and went to bed while in the harbor, etc. What have you heard that makes more sense than those ridiculous speculations. Again, why don’t we ask the guy behind the wheel?

I had a wreck once. Guess what the first thing the cop asked me was? Yep, you got it. He asked me what happened and I told him. He didn’t call in accident “experts” to guess and tell him.

According to the national association of ship pilots, “the pilot ordered its rudder turned hard to the left and its left anchor dropped in an effort to slow the vessel and stop it swinging to the right.”

Clearly, the harbor pilot is a leftist as he turned hard to the left and dropped the left anchor.

But then he took a red pill to swing to the right.

of course any solution, improving conditions for workers, or anything that isn't "find and kill the bad guys that we know exist" is socialism and wrong and bad and should never happen.

Those that are poo-pooing any theories of sabotage are, for some reason, assuming that none of the unusual events that have occurred thus far were deliberately caused. Multiple train derailments, food processing facility fires (and other wildfires deliberately set), and now this. They also ignore the fact that we have millions of foreign operatives and hostile-nation terrorists running around freely in America now. It makes one wonder what their motivation in mocking the sabotage debate is. I can already guess. Sure, accidents happen. But this many? This often?

A cyber attack causing this latest ‘event’ is quite possible, and even probable. I don’t believe in coincidences any more. Not in this new reality we’re dealing with.

And I don’t even trust “facts” anymore when they come from governmental sources.

And the government and the media did this to themselves.
I didn’t do it, and posters on this forum didn’t do it.

The government and media, through their lies, collaboration, and collusion have accomplished this destruction of any public trust in anything at all.

Normal people who don’t think like sheep (and we have a lot of sheep-like thinkers here, even on this ostensibly conservative forum) will make judgements in their own self-interest, which in today’s world, is a rational response to this corruption.

quote:

In the General/Chat forum, on a thread titled Q ~ Trust Trump's Plan ~ 03/16/2024 Vol.489, Q Day 2331, OldWarBaby wrote:

Lots of folks paying attention to the FSKB fail. Fortunately my new supply of tinfoil just got here. My new hat has a quartz beanie on top so I’m connected to the entire galaxy.

But listen up:
Adding Mitch’s SIL and her shipping ownership to the mix is way doubling down on coinkidinkies.
Night before last when the Cali hit the FSKB was full moon. Never mind that un-docking in the middle of the night, in the dark, is a bit non-standard by itself.

As chance would have it I woke up long enough, about midnight, to do a rollover and noted the FULL MOON about 1:00 high. My bedroom window faces West so I get a good look at the moonset. The Cali hit the FSKB about 1:30 AM which would have also been right at max high tide.

A local fisherman notes that channel is dredged to 60 feet. So most of the river water goes down that channel making deader water and way more mud near the bridge pilings. It was noted early on that the Cali left its tugs behind even tho it had to clear the FSKB and one more bridge before it got to open water.

The only rational for no tugs, besides cheapness anyway, is that with a 60 foot channel and a 40 foot draft no one believed a large ship could get out of the channel and into the 30 foot water to ever hit the bridge abutments?

But this ship never got itself aligned into the proper channel from the time it un-docked, according to the published path it took. From the time it lit its engine it was pointed more to the bridge than to the channel.

The main engines on these big heavy haulers are a bit different than one might expect on a more versatile ship.
They have one bigass diesel engine, 8 or more cylinders and pack 40,000 horsepower or more. The main engine does nothing except drive the ship. Electric and hydraulic power come from auxiliary engines. It’s all about cheapness.

The main engine is hard -coupled to the prop shaft which is firmly bolted to the prop. No cluth, no disconnect. If the main engine is running the prop is turning so they do not start the engine when dockside. Their little buddy tugs move them away and line them up with the channel. To reverse the ship the main engine is shut down, then re-started in the opposite rotation. That explains the puff of black smoke the Cali kicked out when heading for the bridge. It also explains that they had a serious problem before the smoke and should have shut down.

Everyone has noted the ship had been doing 8 knots, which is a bit fast for channel chasing, but had slowed to 1.5 knots before hitting the bridge. The reason the ship slowed is because it was pushing mud already, out of the main channel. But for high tide, I don’t believe it could have gotten out of the channel.

When you see the pics from later in the day, low tide, you can see the stern is out of the water at least 10 feet. It’s plainly sitting on mud that is probly only 30 feet deep.

And Mumbles was way too quick on the draw with that pledge of Fedmoney.

There’s more but I’m going with sabotage,conspiracy, sedition etc. and I’m also wanting to round up everybody associated with that ship, waterboard their axxes, rubber hose them, find out who paid them, round up their mothers and find out why they birthed such a bunch of dumbasses?

Perhaps we're about to get some facts? Who am I kidding, here's Dali cargo ship suffered 'severe electrical problem' while docked in Baltimore days prior to bridge collapse crash that saw it suffer 'total power failure, loss of engine failure', port worker says posted by freeper rxsid

the article posted:

Julie Mitchell, co-administrator of Container Royalty, a company which tracks cargo, told CNN the ship was anchored at the port for at least 48 hours prior to the deadly crash.

'And those two days, they were having serious power outages… they had a severe electrical problem,' Mitchell told the broadcaster. 'It was total power failure, loss of engine power, everything.'

Mitchell explained that refrigerated boxes tripped breakers on board the ship on several occasions, and mechanics had been trying to fix the issue. She said she didn't know whether the problem had been fixed when the ship set off.
