Excerpt of the full paragraph in the USA Today article you cite, PiMiner, for context:
'Rabei said the ship's captain has yet to respond to several demands by the canal authority, including surrender of the black box and documents sought for the investigation.'
I agree with, yours, and the captain's course of (in)action. I'm not a Law Fag but, I will eagerly follow the legal circus that is certain to ensue.
Should the identity of the Ever Green's captain remain anonymous? If so, to what end?
I saw this article denying her being the captain which, is fine. But, the ship has a captain and that the name of the captain this far into the story has not been disclosed seems odd to me. Francesco Shettino, of Concordia fame is, I am speculating now of course, at least mildly impressed at this captain's ability to remain anonymous.
Sauce, please?? The name initially put forth was Marwa El Selehdar. She is an Egyptian woman. Her name is now scrubbed from the internet in connection to The 'Ever Given' except in denial of her being captain. Thanks, Fren.

Even so, 100/6 is 16.666666666.7. Rounding up...?
Yes, agreed. Welcome to Fascism.
Rick Grenell is based AF. This is probably a good old Easter greeting well wish. However, the greatest battle of good v. evil was won on Easter. So, prayers, Prayer Fags.
Fair enough, If it was wasn't Delaware I probably wouldn't have noticed.
Cuomo didn't get 4M for the nursing home deaths; he got 4M to help the DS steal the election for the Chinese Communist Party.
Don Giovanni, I would prefer your narrative of innocence gone awry to the more probable scenario of adult knuckleheadery. I'm sure Francesco Schettino of Concordia fame is mildly curious, too.
The 8kun drop is hopeful. Thanks, Fren.
Yes. I'm waiting for that to be addressed, too!:)
You're welcome, mac1221. I'm no expert but, I'm doing all of the research I can to understand why the identity of this captain hasn't been revealed. I'm not interested in busting this guy's (or, gal's!) balls, either. It is either a really good reason (white hats!) or, more of the usual from the MSM and they are in lock step to protect the captain's identity. If I were to hazard a guess as to why it would be 'diversity' over 'merit.' Same path the US Navy is currently on by all indications.
This is some pure, uncut, hopium! Very much appreciated. Thank you, Captain Higgins.
Right?! The Ever Given has a top speed of 22 knots so, it was really moving. Another GA Anon posted up a graphic of the windspeed that day on the canal as a rebuttal to the reasoning presented that the 'high winds' caused the problem with the ship. I wish I had grabbed a shot of that.
Thank you, Macho_Maam. Your comment means a lot to me. We're all here just doing the best we can to understand.
Me neither, Fren, me neither. Frustrating but, an excellent example of the MSM and journalists (yeah, right!) falling in line to protect.
I also grabbed this excerpt from the article from WAPO that you provided as a link.
"Contrary to their titles, the pilots do not actually steer the vessel in the Suez Canal. The pilot serves more as a consultant, using his experience and practical knowledge of the canal to give advice, for instance on how to maneuver the vessel or what course to steer.
The captain has to be present at all times on the bridge and give the orders to the helm, to the engines and tugs, taking into account the pilot’s directions, according to international maritime law. The captain has to keep the pilot informed of any problems with the handling of the vessel “so that the pilot might be in a position to give better advice to control the navigation and movement of the vessel,” the law reads. Ultimately, “the responsibility falls completely” on the captain, it adds."
Your assertion that the captain of the ship is not responsible for the ship and conveys command of the ship to the canal pilots (experienced as they may be) to navigate the canal is incorrect. True, two pilots board the ship at great expense to the ship's operator. However they give professional recommendations to the ship's captain (who by law must be present on the bridge) and give the actual orders to navigate the canal. Fren, it seems we have sources that present different narratives regarding the command structure of a ship during passage. I would offer in support of my argument that the ships insurance company, Lloyds of London, is set to pay claims up to $100 million. If command of the ship is conveyed to the canal pilots who are responsible to navigate the canal I would imagine Lloyd's of London would suggest that they are not liable for the blockage and subsequent monetary damages. Thanks for your input and your shared interest in this event, Fren.
This is what the 3.5M to Hunter from Elena Baturina, the richest woman in Russia and the widow of Yury Luzhkov, the former mayor of Moscow is for. The US under PEDOTUS, Joe Biden will do jack as Ukraine is brought back into the fold by Russia.
The cross in the door way and the close proximity to Easter led me to ignore 'UNITED' and look instead at the 'ST' which is the abbreviation for 'Saint' and type into a browser, 'ST OF AMER' which produced the search result ' Saint of America' The Saint of America happens to be 'Saint Mary' 'Our Lady of the Immaculate Conception'
Respectfully, Its illegal in this country. I don't want to hear about 'cultures'
