3 edits |  Conspiracy theories for cable cuts??
Despite ample speculation that something fishy is afoot, LOL.
I see we have sunk to quoting UFO & conspiracy nuts as a source of conspiracy theories.

|  fishy is an understatement
It's very sheeple of everyone to blindly believe the reported story, that for some unknown reason there have been 4 cuts in this cable all in the same volatile region.
I've read that the cables were cut "with a torch". Meaning, someone intentionally cut these cables using a submersible.
Who would benefit from this and why? |

Re: I feel the same way
Well, consider:
* Four cable outages in at least two places in a week
* Country affected most severely is the one the US and Israel are currently threatening, and others affected are disfavored by US and Israel, while Israel and US-occupied country are spared
Now looking at it objectively, is it plausible that this is purely accidental and due to boat anchors? It really stretches credulity to *avoid* a conspiracy theory in this case.
Here's something else to consider: at least one US submarine is designed to be able to tap underwater cables. (Presumably there would be an outage during the installation.) »www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=su···rch&aq=f |

| Cable Damage
Years ago was paid to fly over underwater cables off Calif. coast (out to 50 miles) looking for fishing boats working over the charted cables ( a no-no). When seen, we noted boat info, tried to contact boats by radio and relayed info to com. Why? On several occasions fishing nets would snag cable and cause damage when pulled in with nets. In one sad case, the fishing crew cut the cable to get free. The fine was in the six-figure range.
FYI - These nets drag for miles and scour the sea of everything. That's why there are now 'dead areas' of the seas. |

Re: fishy is an understatement
said by morbo :I've read that the cables were cut "with a torch". Not that I'm doubting that this could have been intentional, but do you have a link to a source or sources that state it was cut with a torch. That would be pretty damning evidence.

| 4th was a power outage.
4th cable down was from a power outage.
The 2 near Egypt were not from an anchor because ship traffic wasn't in the area when the cables were cut and it was also a restricted area. If this version sinks again then you can be sure something fishy is up because the whitehouse would jump on the opportunity to blame possible could be maybe terrorists (similar to terriss).

| Watson...the game is afoot...
considering there's no physical evidence of any ships in the area when the 1st 3 cables were cut(Authorities posted reports and video sating no ships were in the area before, during and after the cables were cut). I find it very odd indeed, and more than coincidence. |
