There has been much talk about the number of cargo ships anchored off our West coast causing supply shortages.
I’m almost getting cynical enough to believe that the ports being blocked and a lot of traffic coming in from Mexico into the US and Canada is part of their plan.
The way I see it, there are MULTIPLE countries right now heading into winter, with either FOOD, or FUEL, OR BOTH sourcing problems that have really started to come to a boil.
I get it, I am an old wolf, and the memory of history classes 45-60… years ago are rather, whats the word, AGED, yes aged. BUT, I vaguely remember that a LOT of wars were started when one country ran out of one of those resources inside of it’s borders, couldn’t afford to buy it from other countries, and resorted to war to try to get them.
Now we have not just one of two countries with one resource getting low and going into winter, we have several of them that are missing one or both. That is BAD.
And we are wondering right now what is in those containers that are floating out there. It could be supplies and Chinese crap that we bought months ago and nothing bad. Could be. They could be full of munitions and war footing equipment, waiting for either people inside the USA to get a hold of them, or come up with the Chinese soldiers that are all through South and Central America.
It could also be more Chinese troops (they have a lot of people over there, and their gov considers most of them “expendable”).
It could be just that they want to flood the ports down there, and that way have a massive armada of 18-wheelers that need to come up here pronto and have very little “inspection” going on. OR, it could be a mixture of all of these possibilities.
We have seen in the RECENT past that they DO like to ship a LOT of weaponry in CONEX and SeaPac boxes. They also have been proven to send human cargo that way.
There are at least 100+ container ships on our west coast at the moment. Each one of them holding between 7,000 and 20,000 TEU (Twenty-foot Equivalent Units) worth of CONEX or SeaPac boxes (a 40 foot box is two TEUs).
If you wanted to ride in style, you could easily put 5-10 people in a TEU for a short while, bunks hooked to the wall, food and supplies in the cabinets underneath…
Or you could lay them in there like sardines and probably get 20 in a TEU. Let them out once a day to exercise and more often to eat and “take care of things”.
Let’s now say that all of the TEUs at “ground level” are “human”, and the ones above storage for “supplies and weaponry”, so we have a roughly 5 to 1 ratio of supply TEUs to soldier TEUs.
At let’s say an average of 18,000 TEUs per ship, that leaves 3,000 of them inhabited (times 10-20 each), and 15,000 TEUs full of supplies.
Just one or two ships doing this (or several that are partially loaded this way could cause massive trouble. Ask yourself, is China insane enough to try something like that?
What if they have complicit “assistance” from TPTB, and from people like General “Phone Tree” Milley? What if china was promised the land decades ago?
Lot of questions, lot of serious questions. Not a lot of info. Not a lot of time.
