Independent journalist Lara Logan’s report on the “accident” is very different from the reports in the mainstream media.
Here’s what Logan had to say about the cargo ship’s “accident” with the Francis Scott Key bridge in Baltimore:
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.
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.
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.

Occam’s Razor says it was an accident.
Another conspiracy expert who solves everything with a Google search. Now she’s an expert on global shipping vessels.
I understand a cyber attack to shut down the ship, but did they remote control “drive it into the bridge?”
Or just drunk.
Truth
More important than building a new bridge is immediately clearing away the collapsed old bridge and opening the port to ship traffic again ASAP
There are plenty of other roads that traffic can drive. They just add expense to the trip.
The bigger issue is that it will shut down the port for a few weeks. The impact on the flow of cars into the country—and sugar out of the country—will be significant.
Sorry Professor Moriarity and Col. Sebastian Moran cannot be behind everything bad that happens. We do not live in a constant Conspiracy Theory!
That isn’t a solution, it blocks the port.
Probably a China operation to tell RINOs that Biden (then Kamela in 2028, Chelsea Kringtong in 2032, etc) WILL win no matter what and they should keep their mouths shut.
Whew !
Just why did the “terrorists” 🙄 call the Maryland Department of Transportation. warning them that the ship had lost power, allowing authorities to stop traffic on the bridge ? Hmmmmmmmmm ?
Not even an Allah akbar ! Not even Death to the Imperial Running Dog Faced Pony Soldiers !
Oh, it’s a stealth terror attack, I get it.
Has ISIS acclaimed responsability yet ?
This loony tune and Steve Bannon talking shit selling tickets to the carny show !
I found that there had to be three major safety violations for an event like this to happen.
The lesson was that when you had one major safety violation you should go on high alert.
Two major safety violations and you shut everything down because a third major safety violation is going to get people killed.
When I dig up the ship building details, I find cheap and again, cheap.
The ship uses barely functional “fuel” for propulsion.
The backup generators use something a little better.
We see the ship lose power - bad fuel.
The lights turn ON - backup generator(s) with the better fuel.
The ship might be a success if it ran on rails - possibly what “the money” that built the thing, was thinking.
“ Less than a week ago, the US Coast Guard said they were investigating a series of HOAX DISTRESS CALLS that began February 17 near BALTIMORE.
“They said at least 16 hoax calls were transmitted and “consist of an individual calling out for help with no location or description of their vessel or nature of distress”

“..They can build these temporarily. Like D-Day...”
Great pic of a bygone era....
Back then, we had men that were men, and women that were women.
Woke was a crying baby in the middle of the night.
And DEI (didn’t earn it) was what was left over inside a used condom.
Today?....well, not so much..... /s
Her contention is that the ship’s navigation systems (perhaps propulsion?) were hacked. Now, we have a lot of people dismissing this as looney conspiracy theories yet there’s nobody commenting here who can rule that out, other than by relying upon the same-day statements of the Administration, FBI, media, tv experts… Personally, before reaching conclusions, I will wait and see (or not see). As for the commenters dismissing Lara Logan, you can feel free to believe Christopher Wray and this Administration. BTW, here we are two years after Nord Stream was blown up and the same crowd can’t tell us exactly what happened and who was behind it. But in this case, they were ready to rule out an attack within ten minutes. (Where have you gone James Kallastrom…?)
“When I dig up the ship building details, I find cheap and again, cheap.”
I suspect that maintenance on the ship was done on the cheap as well.
What shut down the power on this thing? Why did the lights go out moments before it hit the bridge?
We know that water systems have been hacked by Chinese and Iranian hackers in western Pennsylvania. They were shut down and DHS came into the investigation.
The FBI is warning about attacks on the infrastructure. Why is this so quickly being dismissed as an accident?
“Sometimes an accident is just an accident. It doesn’t have to make sense. It just happens.”
Well, the ship, supposedly out of control, did make a right hand turn into the support.

Anomalies in the Suez Canal (the ship Ever Given) and a war ship colliding with a commercial ship (USS Fitzgerald and MV ACX Crystal collision) in the past 6 years or so give me pause now regarding hacking - I'm not automatically dismissing theories.
