Disaster "Mass casualty incident" declared after Key Bridge in Baltimore collapses

No article yet as this just happened, but could be big. One of the largest bridges in the world according to Wikipedia.

Not every attack needs to be a mass casualty event. Disrupting supply chains is an excellent way to cripple a country (note I'm not saying one bridge destroyed = country grinds to a halt). This could've been an accident or negligence, sure, or it could be a test attack. This is a pretty major port.
So instead of just setting the ship on fire or making it collide with another shipload of cargo to make people buying their shitty Chinese cheap stuff even madder, the terrorists chose to run the thing into a bridge as a test run, knowing for sure the cargo was sufficient and the vessel would hit? This was a test run that also killed people in a major city?

Oh yeah, that makes total fucking sense.
 
My step dad works in shipping and he shed some light to me on how this happen and it is the fault of the EPA. When Biden took office one of the first things he and the EPA did was put new regulations on the types of engines that ships are allowed to use. Only green energy friendly engines can be used for these ships. These ships need a lot of power to function and these new green energy engines are not cutting it. It is uncommon now for ships to lose power while sailing in the water. People have lost their jobs and lives from how bad these new engines are when before you had no problems with the old engines.
 
I live a few miles away from it. In certain parts of my neighborhood, you can see the bridge. My brother called me and told me about it at 4:30AM. He was at work. He told me it blew up and I said who blew it up. There are way more important bridges for terrorists to attack than the Key bridge. Everyone here just calls it the Key Bridge.

From what I have seen in videos it was a container ship called The Dali. It has a Singapore flag. It seems to have had some kind of technical issues. It lost power twice and looks to have had some sort of engine trouble.

This is one the videos I watched.


Now for funny stuff I have heard.

Someone said Trump should say this is Biden's fault and it wouldn't have happened if he had been president.

Putin said the Ukrainians did it.

Joe Biden probably doesn't even remember the name of the bridge.

Baltimore is like the 15th busiest port in the US - if they wanted to disrupt shipping than they should have picked a bigger port.

There are other ports on the east cost which have been expanding since the Long Beach BS during COVID... so my guess is there is enough excess capacity along the eastern seaboard to handle this while they clear the old bridge structure.

Nobody ever does these incredibly-elaborate-and-very-likely-to-fail plans that you retards keep speculating about. When a state or similarly funded organization wants something destroyed, they just blow it up and then feign ignorance, like with Nordstream.

i feel okay pinning this on government regulations.
 
> "Do you think hiring under-qualified workers for the sake of diversity might bring problem in the future?"
> "We will cross the bridge when we get to it"
LMAO if you think diversity hires are a thing in international shipping. Most international shipping companies are unhappy they are kept slightly above indentured slavery conditions when it comes crewing ships. Plenty have described the ships as crewed by virtual slave labor when they come out of Asia. They like to hire crews out of Asia and Eastern Europe to keep costs low.

Do note that even non green engines were less than ideal due to the sheer inertia of something this big on water. Making the engines weaker is a Sar do not redeem sar! idea.
 
It’s gotten more convoluted as time goes on. People are just now paying attention to this shit when Cruise ship disasters have been caused by nepo hires and third worlds workers for years. The Costa Concordia had the Indian helmsman fuck off back to India and never got caught.
If the shipping companies were smart they’d pretend to go DEI and start calling everyone racist to hide they’re paying third worlders a pittance and cutting corners.

A guy I worked with was a first engineer when he was younger (he had to give up the sea for family reasons) and loved the Filipinos who were on his crew in defence of some third worlders.

You know what scares me? There's enough intelligence behind his assessments that I don't think he went crazy. The problem is he's a rapid fire and emotional in a lot of his posts.

Still the timing of all this is suspect to me. They have a history of being able to conduct false flags, then again so does the CIA.

Don't tell me Jews can't be spiteful cunts.


How do you know? Seriously I want to know. These guys are likely following the rulebook to the letter and just going on autopilot so there's no way they were prepared for that possibility

And Theoretically I don't think it's impossible if we don't know how they used their wi fi or the tech they were using.
You can fly a commercial airliner by wire but a cargo ship?? Oy vey you're talking crazy, goy!

Jesus this thread is full of morons that can’t take five seconds to look up basic facts. The Dali is a diesel engine ship. Nothing Biden and the EPA do has fuck all to do with a ship built in 2015 in Korea and flagged out of the Marshall Islands and now Sri Lanka. Well before Boogeyman Biden put forth any new EPA regulations

Dali is a Neopanamax ship with a gross tonnage of 95,128, length of 300 meters,[4] and a beam of 48.2 meters. The draft of the ship is 24.8 meters.[4] She is powered by a 41480 kW MAN B&W 9S90ME-C9.2 2-stroke, single acting, 9-cylinder diesel engine,[6][2] and has a fixed pitch B-1-3000 thruster for propulsion. The ship can reach a speed of 22 knots, and has a capacity of 10,000 TEU.[4]
 
Fair, but the bridge needed to be rebuilt to account for that then.
Maybe a analysis of a possible collision and how to mitigate one, how to deflect a impact from a ship away from the bridge, etc.

I don't understand, bridges and shit get repaired and modified all the time, it isn't hard for adopt changes to minimize the risk.
You don’t need to redesign the bridge, you just need to protect its supports. A common method with shipping channel obstacles is a big, strategically placed, pile of rocks with flashing lights on top. might not stop a 300m container ship, but will significantly slow the fucker down.

They are doing they did in 2020, hold up a disgusting rat-like human subspecies for you to hate while they prepare to force everyone into lockdown 2.

If you can’t see that Biden is tied to this then I hope you get jabbed, retard.
