The Francis Scott Key Bridge is a significant commuter route carrying the Baltimore Beltway I-695 over the Patapsco River at the southern end of the Baltimore Harbor.<\/p>\n<p>There are no official reports on casualties yet; however, there are unconfirmed cars in the water and reports of several construction workers unaccounted for. As of just before 5 a.m. EDT, rescue crews have not pulled anyone out of the water. A road crew was fixing potholes on the bridge at the time. Two people were rescued from the water. One was not injured; the other was seriously hurt and was hospitalized. Search efforts are underway for six others who are missing.<\/p>\n<p>In the video below, the ship\u2019s lights can be seen going off and then on again as it appears to pass by the support column. Suddenly and inexplicably, the lights on the cargo ship are turned back on as the ship appears to turn toward the support column and hits it head-on.<\/p>\n<div id=\"tgp-755639211\" class=\"tgp-post-inline-1\">\n<div class=\"adcovery-postinline-01\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1120863\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1120863\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1120863 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thegatewaypundit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/lights-on-cargo-ship-baltimore-n-600x339.jpg\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thegatewaypundit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/lights-on-cargo-ship-baltimore-n-600x339.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.thegatewaypundit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/lights-on-cargo-ship-baltimore-n-1024x579.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.thegatewaypundit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/lights-on-cargo-ship-baltimore-n-768x434.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.thegatewaypundit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/lights-on-cargo-ship-baltimore-n-1536x868.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.thegatewaypundit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/lights-on-cargo-ship-baltimore-n-1600x900.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/www.thegatewaypundit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/lights-on-cargo-ship-baltimore-n.jpg 1854w\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"339\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1120863\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The power is clearly turned on as the cargo ship hits the support column on the Francis Scott Key Bridge.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The entire span of the bridge immediately collapses IN FRONT of the ship.

In information warfare terms, they just divided the US along the Mason-Dixon line, exactly like the Civil War.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>The second busiest strategic roadway in the nation for hazardous material is now down for 4-5 years \u2013 which is how long they say it will take to recover. Bridge was built specifically to move hazardous material \u2013 fuel, diesel, propane gas, nitrogen, highly flammable materials, chemicals, and oversized cargo that cannot fit in the tunnels \u2013 that supply chain now crippled.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Make no mistake: this was an extraordinary attack in terms of planning, timing &amp; execution.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>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.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Half a mile of bridge went in the river \u2013 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 &amp; won\u2019t know until they take the wreckage apart. Structural destruction likely absolute.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Attack perfectly targeted.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cThey 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. We are arrogant and ignorant \u2013 lethal combination. Obama said they would fundamentally change America and they did. We are in a free-fall ride on a roller coaster right now \u2013 no brakes \u2013 just picking up speed.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>The footage shows the cargo ship never got in the approach lane in the channel. You have to be in the channel before you get into that turn. Location was precise\/deliberate: chose a bend in the river where you have to slow down and commit yourself \u2013 once you are committed in that area there is not enough room to maneuver.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Should have had a harbor pilot to pilot the boat. You are not supposed to traverse any obstacles without the harbor pilot.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>They chose a full moon so they would have maximum tidal shift \u2013 rise and fall. Brisk flow in that river on a normal day &amp; have had a lot of rain recently so water was already moving along at a good pace.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Hit it with enough kinetic energy to knock the load-bearing pylon out from under the highway \u2013 which fatally weakens the span and then 50 percent of the bridge fell into the water.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>All these factors when you look at it \u2013 this is how you teach people how to do this type of attack and there are so few people left in the system who know this. We have a Junior varsity team on the field.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Tremendous navigational obstruction. Huge logistical nightmare to clean this up. Number of dead is tragic but not the whole measure of the attack.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>That kind-of bridge constantly under repair \u2013 always at night because there is so much traffic and they cannot obstruct that during the day. So concern is for repair guys who were on foot (out of their vehicles) working who may now be in the water \u2013 48 degrees at most at this time of year.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>When you choke off Baltimore you have cut the main north-south hazardous corridor (I95) in half. Now has to go around the city \u2013 or go somewhere else.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>To move some of that cargo through the tunnel you may be able to get a permit but those are slow to get and require an escort system that is expensive and has to be done at night.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>For every $100 dollars that goes into the city, $12 comes from shipping.
