Dont forget the false flag in Russia.

Right, the P Diddy sex trafficking is being pushed out of the spotlight…Hey make a meme! Tie them together, join the incidents at the hip! As the elite pedo trafficking is uncovered EXPECT more traffic delays!

thats what i was thinking

How about a stickie called "Housecleaning" one stop for these kind of things all in one area?

Bingo.

Even though the census considers the area the Baltimore-Washington Corridor, it is not part of the major north-south corridor known as I-95. In theory, you could take 695 to go around Baltimore, but it's usually just worth enduring I-95 through Baltimore vs the extra drive around the city.

Looks like a pretty major traffic route to me. Judge for yourself.

Well you were the ONLY one paying attention on this thread. Why weren't TUG BOATS assisting this ship on the way out? Well it looks like the Tug boat company that does the majority of the harbor picks up ships AFTER they clear the bridge and sends them off right before they are ready to leave and clear the bridge.

In this article the tug boats pick up a car ship...look at caption in image 2

Captain Byshe Hicks at the controls of the Eric McAllister as the tug approaches the car ship Tijuca just inside the Francis Scott Key Bridge

In the article it says

Once the Tijuca has cleared the bridge, both tugs start moving alongside the ship, with the Timothy hooking its ship line to the forward part of the left side of the Tijuca and the Eric spinning about and sidling along the rear of the other side

So that means they don't pickup the ship till it clears the Bridge....kind of funny how a cargo ship named Dali from Singapore CHINA hits and destroys our bridge. I guess they don't need bombs and missiles to destroy AMERICA...and they will get paid to do it by an insurance company. The UNION seems to be a player real soon if you can see that coming. Why doesn't the UNION allow ships past the bridge?

I was on the Ike. You are correct about the tugs.

I am NOT nautical, but doing some quick research, and a little math. Assuming channel was 40-50 ft deep (let's go with 45 feet) Observer claimed 3-5 knots (going with 4.5 knots = 7.6 ft/second)

Say the Anchor was ready for deployment, it has to sink 45 ft (5 seconds?) Then assuming 45 degrees for maximum drag, the ship has to travel 45 feet before the anchor catches.

So, zero reaction time + (5 sec*7.6ft/sec) for anchor to hit bottom forward travel would be 23 ft. Then 63 feet for anchor to dig in - that's 88 feet (Pythagorean theorem, solving for hypotenuse). Then Drag and deceleration of considerable mass of cargo ship - several hundred feet (I am guessing with zero experience). Assuming muddy bottom, there is a likelihood the Captain could not have avoided this in the time/distance he had to work with.

Hey, another bird farmer. I was on the Ike, Shipmate :)

MASSIVELY underrated comment

Soon he’ll be Plea-Diddy

Yes. This is the ship channel to the harbor. I'm sure the harbor is closed until they remove the wreckage

power lines more likely. No need for dynamite

Yeah its notable, feel free to post it.

For those not on Twatter (you should get an account and join the battle), here's the full post:

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.

thats fine obiden has all that green infra structure $$$$$ maybe theyll upgrade to a smart bridge. in a rainbow motif
