I feel like this was part of the plan, given the name of the boat and the call sign. It feels like Evergreen was suppose to get stuck and hold up all transportation flow for the next two weeks while operations are being carried out. I just can’t imagine they couldn’t get that boat unstuck in one day if they really wanted too.
Thoughts?
Why postulate trafficking theories when the most obvious result of this ship being beached is ordinary commerce $$$? According to this article, 12 % of global trade and 9% of oil goes through the Suez DAILY. That's almost hard to believe, but it's an amount of money that would certainly motivate a lot of people, maybe even more people than would be in trafficking. Whole nations are thinking about that commerce and sweating the blockade.

Can you please point out where in my post I said “Trafficking”? I have no idea what’s going on, I’m just saying I think humans are capable of getting that boat out of that jam quicker than “weeks” if they really wanted too. But, I could be wrong about that aswell.
I think so too. It's part of a bigger operation. Look at the stacked up ship's in the Indian Ocean. Where tjey from, where tjey going. How .any beat feet back to Ports in China.
That was a general reply not to you, but to all the people assigning everything that happens to some white hat operation which is aimed at child smugglers. It's gotten ridiculous and is making GAW a laughingstock. Like the tugboat named Baraka which is a common Arabic name and the ship's call letters which include Hillary's initials but have a number which she doesn't. This isn't evidence! There really are coincidences! If there is any nefarious plot it more likely relates to raising oil and food prices because plugging that canal is already doing it.
Anyway, the ship weighs 200,000 tons. Its displacement right now does not cover that weight. On the water there is little resistance to movement. With the prow stuck it's 200,000 tons sinking into wet sand. For comparison a loaded boxcar is about 30 tons. It can't be offloaded very easily to increase flotation because the shipping containers are a hundred feet in the air and designed to be moved with a giant crane. How is a giant crane going to get there and be set up? Dragged overland? First it has to be where it could be dragged, then big tractors pull it slowly through the sand, like the giant transformer we had to move from CA to AZ at 5 mph, took months. They can drain some ballast water and otherwise it will be dig dig dig on the front end while pulling on the rear and hoping for a high tide. A Dutch crew is coming, one of these days, and then there will be endless red tape no doubt. I think a week would be good work but don't expect it.
The crane would come in pieces. There may be a leibher in germany that could but just putting one together and probably the site work is gonna be a big job.
