It sounds like the twenty-one crew members and two maritime pilots did everything humanly possible to avoid hitting the bridge. One of the pilots actually saved lives, he/she let transportation authority officers know to shut down traffic to the bridge. That action saved countless lives, not to mention the fact both pilots actually ordered anchors to be dropped when there was no power and almost zero light (power going on and off). This put some of their crew in major danger, you never want to drop those massive anchors in darkness with crew on deck. But the crew put their own lives at risk in order to slow the ship down and avoid the accident.

I don't know why anyone would think this is a conspiracy, because the crew sure as fuck wasn't in on it, they did everything humanly possible to avoid a collision.

I am no expert on Maritime transportation, but, no way in hell should a ship that big be pulling out of port in calm waters (compared to giant waves in the middle of the Ocean) lose power like that. There should be not one, but two or three generators that instantly come on when power goes out. Nor should the entire ship be "dead in the water" when you have a power outage. The pilot/captain should never be put in a position to be totally useless from a "power surge". If the only thing a Captain can do is drop the anchor and everything other thing on the Bridge is useless to him/her, that ain't right. I get it if you are in the middle of the Ocean and everything goes to shit and water is everywhere and your ship is just fucked, ok I get that. But in this instance they were just pulling out of Port, this should never happen.

Be interesting to see what caused the accident, I guess we will find out in a couple of months.

At 1:27 in the morning on March 26, 2024, the Francis Scott Key Bridge, in Baltimore Harbor, Baltimore, Maryland, collapsed after the Singapore registered container ship, the Dali, named after Salvador Dali, rammed into one of only two critical support pillars taking the majority of the 1.6 mile bridge down. The Dali was headed to Colombo, Sri Lanka, with two pilots and a crew of 22.

Lara Logan detailed how the attack was perfectly executed, saying “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 of them would be a fatal wound to the integrity of the bridge.’

The Biden Administration's response was par for the course. Red Flag, it is blatantly obvious that taxpayers will pay the bill so that insurance companies don't investigate.

The Gateway Pundit reported that “An unclassified Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency report said the container ship Dali “lost propulsion” as it was leaving port and warned Maryland officials of a possible collision.‘

Lara Logan adding that according to “Multiple intel sources: The 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.

Logan adds "The second busiest strategic roadway in the nation for hazardous material is 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. 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."

The ship’s lights can be seen being turned on and off as the ship passes by the support column. Suddenly, the lights are turned back on as the ship turns toward the support column and slams into it.

There are also reports that a fire began on the ship which caused the Tugboats to be released 17 minutes before impact with the Francis Scott Key bridge.

The infrastructure of the United States has been under constant attack since Biden took office. And now a key domestic supply chain has been eliminated within its interior.
