Before you go ahead and downvote me or yell obscenities my way, hear me out.
I have been thinking about the train derailment in East Palestine, Ohio, and I have been contemplating about if it was a Deep State attack or a tragic accident. I was also intrigued on why Trump haven't commented on the incident yet.
Here are a couple of facts that was given to me:
1.) The MSM claimed that the cause of the derailment is a mechanical malfunction in one of the rail car's axles that was not caught and repaired before the event.
2.) The train's wheels(?) were on fire and was allowed to travel for 20 miles before finally derailing in East Palestine, Ohio
With that in mind, I might have an hypothesis on what might have happened:
1.) One of the rail cars have a mechanical problem in it's axle that was not caught before the train took off. The reason why it might not have been caught might be because of the lack of well-rested and prepared manpower to inspect and repair the rail cars. Remember that the rail workers were unhappy about the increased stress and workload that they have to do on little pay and they were about to strike a few months ago. That is, before Biden effectively crushed the rail workers' planned strike without bothering to address their concerns much. I bet that the workers are still overworked and underpaid and probably did not have enough energy to conduct proper inspections, nor do any timely repairs as needed.
2.) The train took off and eventually started to spark and combust on it's wheels. The train engineers probably noticed the fire, eventually, and contacted the rail network headquarters to report the problem and ask for additional instructions on what to do.
3.) I theorize that the engineers were instructed by their headquarters to maintain speed while the network's emergency-management personnel work out a solution to the problem. Applying the brakes is out of the question since the train is not equipped with the proper breaking systems to stop safely in a short notice.
4.) The train derailed in East Palestine, Ohio. Either the emergency-management personnel failed to come up with a solution in time or that their proposed solution did not work before the train derailed. I theorize that their solution is to have the train continue onward past East Palestine, Ohio into the relatively straight and very unpopulated areas of east Pennsylvania where it would either safely stop by whatever braking the train has left, or be derailed intentionally. Even if it was derailed intentionally in east Pennsylvania, there would be no-one around to get hurt or need evacuation. They might even have disaster-management crews on stand-by that can respond rapidly.
The problem with calling this a Deepstate attack is that we lack proof that they intentionally planned the derailment in East Palestine, Ohio as an attack on the American people. What we really need to confirm or deny the maliciousness of the derailment are:
1.) The railway company's written standard emergency procedures for this particular situation (and if they are in-line with industry accepted standards and practices),
2.) What the headquarters instruct the train engineers to do, and
3.) Whatever was the solution the headquarters personnel came up with.
Without information on all of that, we can't really rule beyond reasonable doubt that this is a deep state attack on Americans instead of a tragic accident caused by failures on multiple levels.
That is not to say that there are corrupt guilty parties in this disaster. The rail company is probably guilty for not being up to date on their train upgrades and maintenance (the trains lack industry-standard electronic brakes, lobbied to make them not mandatory for transportation for dangerous cargo, and probably overworked their personnel to the point where the maintenance and safeness of their trains are compromised). The federal government is also guilty for squashing that strike that could've given much needed relief to the workers (enabling them to work more effectively), for probably lying to the American public about the dangers of the chemical fire that ensued afterward, and for covering up/downplaying the scale and magnitude of this disaster that will affect the American public health for years to come.
They filmed a Netflix movie last year about a toxic train derailment in the same area as the real life event.
The CDC updated their vinyl chloride guidance 11 days prior to the real life event. It was the first update to the guidance in over a decade.
Sorry OP, but this train disaster seems pre-meditated.
The movie is literally unwatchable, but look at the movie poster. And they lit that thing on fire, and they did it purposely. Remember that river in the west the EPA destroyed? Remember the endless daily news about the oil spill in the Gulf and the MSM is radio silence on this. A suspicious person might conclude this was a major attack
I agree it is pre-meditated in that the rail company did all it can to make the disaster probable (from disregarding safety protocols and features to overworking the rail workers) and the Biden Regime covered it all up and lied to the public. However, I find it improbable that the Deep State decide to cause this disaster at this particular location at this particular time, not without proof that puts it beyond reasonable doubt. Especially since there is a lot of moving parts that needs to work in sync. The more moving parts, the more things can go wrong, on executing the plan.
And I think I would need more than a Netflex filming location as proof.
The balloons are a diversion from Nord Stream, the project Ukraine debacle, died suddenly, and the Hunter laptop evidence pointing to the big guy. Ohio was just coincidental timing. They covered a lot of birds with that one stone.
Not everything that goes wrong is a DS plan. Sometimes shit just happens. But, that is not to say that they sure as hell won't use a crisis when it does happen. The odds of an accident like this happening with the railroads were pretty f*cking high considering the overloading of the number of cars, the lack of maintenance and safety, and employees being overworked and understaffed. So, if you want to consider that planning, go ahead. The state of our railroads should scare the shit out of everyone because this can happen anywhere.
They are not covering the story because it does not fit into their agenda. If there was some legal or political slant they wanted from this, it would be 24/7 wall to wall coverage. Remember, they do not report the news. They are feeding the public a scripted narrative. They didn't have a response already scripted so they chose to ignore it. That is one of the huge red flags to me that this was a horrible accident. To shine a light on this situation would open up the nasty business over railroad safety that they don't want anyone looking at. Railroad personnel have been trying to sound the alarm on this issue for some time. Accidents happen all the time. We just don't hear about them because we are not supposed to know about them. They try to get everyone to follow the shinny balloons and little green men.
The railroads want this to go away - quickly. They know how bad this is, but the bottom line speaks - not people. They are also very well aware that any damages to human life may not show up for some time - possibly years. Therefore, if they can manage to keep the story buried for a few weeks, the entire incident will fade away in the minds of the general public. The public has a short memory and in the blitzkrieg of distraction news, this accident will be out of sight, out of mind. The private contractors that work with the railroads have been on the ground trying to get people to waive any future legal rights in order to have their homes and property tested. This is occuring with the EPA overlooking. They are scumbags.
It’s no wonder we had an average of 1,704 train derailments per year from 1990 to 2021, especially with tracks like these in Ohio. But ya, let’s keep sending more money to Ukraine. 🤡 What our politicians are doing to our country is traitorous!
These derailments happen a lot more than what people realize - and there is no reporting. Yes, some are sabotage. But most derailments are just accidents - although greedy railroad companies and lax regulations have increased their numbers. There have already been well over a dozen derailments just this year before E. Palestine. Nobody heard about those derailments outside of local news coverage. There are somewhere between 1k and 2k train derailments a year. This is according to the US Bureau of Transportation Statistics. I suppose all of those crashes were planned DS operations as well. When looking at the world with nothing but a hammer, everything looks like a nail. Grand conspiracy does not apply where simple negligence and incompetency along with greed fits the bill.
Food processing plants are a different story.
With regard to points 3 and 4, it's not uncommon for engineers and conductors to be unaware of an issue with a train car on a long train, especially at residential speeds. A truck (the wheel set of a train car) can be in the dirt (off the track) and the crew would be none the wiser until they hit a track sensor, or people manage to wave them down about it.
Dispatch, if they knew about it, would not advise that they maintain speed, as that would risk further derailment. There is no problem solving on the fly. And all trains do have proper braking systems, but no train can stop on a dime with tonnage.
I believe you are right in that this was a result of cutting corners and making a buck. This was bound to happen, if not in Palestine, then somewhere else. However, certain players are also aware of the odds and will play a situation to their advantage if they can. The fact that the press and the government are trying to make this all go away tells me that the main reasons for this tragedy are exactly as you stated. The fact that there is no prescripted narrative ready for the 4am talking points betrays their unpreparedness for the particulars of this event. That all being said, this still could have been set up for failure - or a combination of both.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts and analysis of the situation.
It doesn't have to be a direct attach to still be in the DS plan. We are running super heavy oil cars and other liquids. These add extra stress to the track. The rail roads, a number of which are owned by that commie Buffet; rail against extra safety measures like good breaks.
Eventually the infrastructure falls apart with no one to really blame. Anything bad that happens is a win win.
You didn't consider the possibility that the train was derailed by ANTIFA sabotage. They are on record for advocating for such action.
You also didn't consider that the train was derailed by a disgruntled union worker(s) sabotaging the train, or tracks.
And what about a disgruntled union worker who is also a member of ("an idea") called ANTIFA?
Oh, well, maybe that's the real reason why the commie loving Biden administration, the MSM, and the entirety of the left wing swamp don't want to talk about the Ohio disaster- they may already know who sabotaged the train, and it's tied to radical left wing activism.
If a company, or the government, is not maintaining their railway system, and their equipment, and they’re carrying toxic chemicals, and do nothing, that’s my definition of malicious. I’m not sure what it is you’re looking for here, but there was negligence which has been proven! And how do we not know that that negligence was not planned. It makes no sense that a company would allow this to happen. Come on man.
I agree.
Malicious intent comes in many ways.
I agree,we have seen no evidence of deep state activity.
Sometimes shit just happens. Maybe the phone lines to the sensors was knocked out by a car accident or just broken......
Press will ignore this if the mocking bird doesn't tell them to push it. They have shown they no longer give a fuk about regular news.
The deep state activity was just starting to blow the shit up. The damage could’ve been isolated to that small area, but now it’s nationwide. You can’t tell me when they decided to blow that shit up, that that was not planned. They had to plan to do that somebody did. I can’t imagine somebody at a private company, deciding OK let’s blow all this toxic chemicals up, that’s a great idea. But if the government paid you to do it, people will sell their soul to do that.
How dare this not be pinned!
