#12I hadn't heard about the accident and when I saw title that "The Francis Scott Key bridge is gone", I assumed they were renaming the bridge for something FSK did 200 years ago.
Anyway, tough way to go. RIP.Comment -

#17per Lara Logan ... interesting reading at the very least:
""""Multiple intel sources: Baltimore bridge collapse was an “absolutely brilliant strategic attack” on US critical infrastructure - most likely cyber - & our intel agencies know it. In information warfare terms, they just divided the US along the Mason Dixon line exactly like the Civil War. Second busiest strategic roadway in the nation for hazardous material now down for 4-5 years - which is how long they say it will take to recover.
Bridge was built specifically to move hazardous material - fuel, diesel, propane gas, nitrogen, highly flammable materials, chemicals and oversized cargo that cannot fit in the tunnels - that supply chain now crippled.
Make no mistake: this was an extraordinary attack in terms of planning, timing & execution. The two critical components on that bridge are the two load-bearing pylons on each end, closest to the shore. They are bigger, thicker and deeper than anything else. These are the anchor points and they knew that hitting either one one of them would be a fatal wound to the integrity of the bridge. Half a mile of bridge went in the river - likely you will have to build a new one.
Also caused so much damage to the structural integrity of the bottom concrete part that you cannot see & won’t know until they take the wreckage apart. Structural destruction likely absolute.
Attack perfectly targeted. “They have figured out how to bring us down. As long as you stay away from the teeth of the US military, you can pick the US apart. We are arrogant and ignorant - lethal combination. Obama said they would fundamentally change America and they did. We are in a free-fall ride on a roller coaster right now - no brakes - just picking up speed.”
The footage shows the cargo ship never got in the approach lane in the channel. You have to be in the channel before you get into that turn. Location was precise/deliberate: chose a bend in the river where you have to slow down and commit yourself - once you are committed in that area there is not enough room to maneuver. Should have had a harbor pilot to pilot the boat. You are not supposed to traverse any obstacles without the harbor pilot.
They chose a full moon so they would have maximum tidal shift - rise and fall. Brisk flow in that river on a normal day & have had a lot of rain recently so water was already moving along at a good pace. Hit it with enough kinetic energy to knock the load-bearing pylon out from under the highway - which fatally weakens the span and then 50 percent of the bridge fell into the water.
All these factors when you look at it - this is how you teach people how to do this type of attack and there are so few people left in the system who know this. We have a Junior varsity team on the field. Tremendous navigational obstruction. Huge logistical nightmare to clean this up. Number of dead is tragic but not the whole measure of the attack. That kind-of bridge constantly under repair - always at night because there is so much traffic and they cannot obstruct that during the day. So concern is for repair guys who were on foot (out of their vehicles) working who may now be in the water - 48 degrees at most at this time of year.
When you choke off Baltimore you have cut the main north-south hazardous corridor (I95) in half. Now has to go around the city - or go somewhere else. To move some of that cargo through the tunnel you may be able to get a permit but those are slow to get and require an escort system that is expensive and has to be done at night. For every $100 dollars that goes into the city, $12 comes from shipping. Believe this will cripple the city of Baltimore at a time when they do not have the resources to recover."""Last edited by ByeShea; 03-26-24, 01:35 PM.Comment -

#27Looks like 6 are missing.
No deaths on the ship itself. Incredible.
Think those 6 are part of the crew patching pot holes on the west side of the bridge.
Terrible.Comment -

#30'Big boat accidentally bumps into bridge full speed thereby knocking out vital US port' ... it's right up there with 'mystery virus breaks out in wet market just 1/2 mile from Wuhan Institute of Virology' or 'the video camera on Epstein's cell bloc malfunctioned'... the government is way too comfortable lying to us.

Don't worry Veggie.
The more the fringe loonies push silly stories thinking they are helping "their team", the more people from their own side question what's going on and don't want to be associated with the foolish claims.
And as agents like ByeSHea and Slewfan get increasingly desperate to make up more and more shocking claims, it inevitably ends up like the Madonna conundrum. She/They must get more and more shocking to have any effect, until it gets to the point it has zero effect.
The Jewish cabal of loony Left NWO Illuminati sure must be powerful and smart to so easily manipulate extremist agents like these guys into actually working to destroy their own team now. Scary stuff eh?.Comment -

Well, the narrative with Baltimore was unmistakable before breakfast - there was no evidence of an intentional crash. I remember the announcement 'this is not arson' before the fire was even out at Notre Dame, before churches definitely burned by arsonists were rebuilt all over France ... nothing to see here, folks.
Well, here's something I've noticed: Ships pretty much do not bump into bridge pilings - and the one time one did, it was due to a foolish decision in the face of inclement fog. Yet in Baltimore, a ship turned HARD out of the channel and directly into a sensitive piling. Imagine that.
All vessels, even 20 ft sailboats, have backups for emergency rudder control. This Dali, though ... turned right into the bridge full steam once all power conked out.
This whole story just hits way too flush. Ships just don't do that. Ever. It's kind of like that historical paucity of deadly viruses spontaneously morphing within shouting distance of Virology Research Centers. Oh the odds!Comment
