MS ESTONIA - PART 4

In the immediate aftermath of Estonia’s sinking, relatives began scrambling for news of their loved ones aboard the ship.

One person who understandably receives particular media attention is Estonia’s second in command, Captain Avo Piht. Image
On the morning of Sept 28th, Captain Moik, a friend of both Estonia’s captains, called Piht’s wife from Rostock to tell her that he and multiple colleagues had seen Piht on a German TV channel as he was being transferred from the ambulance to the hospital.
The 6PM news also reports that Piht is amongst the survivors.

Piht’s name then appears on multiple official lists issued by the Port of Tallinn, the Finnish embassy at Tallinn, Tallinn City Hall, and the Baltic News Service.

However, later that day, his name is not on the list issued by the Turku police. No explanation is given. In the first list of surviv...The initial list of those w...https://www.iltalehti.fi/tv...
Estonian radio station Kuku broadcasts an interview with a Swedish helicopter crew member who says that he saved Piht.

When Spiegel TV's Jutta Rabe later tried to obtain the interview tape, the station manager tells her that Estonian police have already confiscated it.
Additional witnesses involved in the immediate disaster response claim to have seen Piht in person, including a doctor in Turku. Enno Tammer (T) talks to ca...
Two days later, Reuters interviews Bengt-Erik Stenmark, safety chief of the SMA, who also says he had been in contact with Piht after the accident. Stenmark is fired shortly after but never retracts his statement.

On Oct 7, 1994 Interpol issues a message looking for Piht, reiterating that many witnesses had seen him. But Piht is never seen again. “Summary of the case: Avo P...
Piht seemingly disappeared after he reached the Turku University Central Hospital. Attempts by family and friends to locate the video tape of the German news report in which Piht was seen were unsuccessful.

Years later, a clip is uncovered appearing to show Piht in an ambulance.
More disturbingly, twin sisters (Hannely & Hanka-Hannika Veide), reportedly rescued from the same raft as Piht, also go missing. On Sept 29th, their brother, having seen on the news that his sisters are alive at Stockholm’s Huddinge hospital, calls his parents. Image
When the parents arrive at Huddinge to look for their daughters they are told that their daughters have drowned. Inexplicably, one twin’s name was recorded on the survivor list as “Anne” Veide, a nickname she went by that few others knew.
In total, 11 people initially confirmed as survivors turned up drowned days later or were never seen again. Several were listed with full names/DOBs, information other survivors have said was verified multiple times by rescue workers and medical staff before being added to lists. Image
Even heroic rescue work gets retracted.

Sailor Kenneth Svensson, who descended via helicopter to retrieve 9 survivors from the stormy sea and was awarded a medal for his efforts, eventually has his rescue total whittled down to 1 or 2 in the JAIC’s final report. Imagehttps://heiwaco.tripod.com/...JAIC Final report on the MV...
But without question, the most disturbing non-surviving survivor story is Kalev Vahtras, the ship’s store assistant.

The ship’s watchman, who was in the same ward in Turku hospital, confirmed that Vahtras had escaped the shipwreck easily, was in perfect condition & high-spirits. https://web.archive.org/web...
Later in the day, Vahtras’ ward mate returned to find his bed gone and was told that he had been transferred.

His body was later reported washed up on the coast of Finland. When the coffin was opened in Estonia, his body had apparent signs of violence. https://web.archive.org/web...
As a result of the retractions, families are doubly traumatized, while many more are left bewildered.

Did these surviving crew members pose a threat to the fraudulent bow visor theory and, as a result, become the final victims of one of the biggest cover-ups in recent history?
The flight records following the disaster may hold a clue.

On 28 September 1994 an empty Gulfstream 4 landed at Stockholm’s Arlanda at 22:56 and departed the next day with five passengers at 17:13 to Bangor, Maine.

Could the disappeared Estonians have been on board? journalist Christopher Boll...Image

In America, a "FICO Credit Score™ " is a blacklist administered by an unelected private oligopoly.

Americans are inducted into this capitalist credit initiative from birth, which controls everything from where they can live and which employer they are allowed to work for. Image
In order to be allowed to live in a house when they're older, Americans must begin taking out loans starting from an early age—even if they don't need a loan.

Americans call this ritual to appease private banks and landlords "building credit".

Image
Image
Image
Before being hired, many employers require Americans to divulge their FICO credit history to assess their trustworthiness.

If deemed insufficiently trustworthy, an applicant will not be hired. Image

This is actually great news for anyone hoping to witness the collapse of dollar hegemony this decade.
Don’t take my word for it though, Yellen herself says as much!
The dollar is the global reserve currency because it's stable. And it's stable because it's the global reserve currency.

Until recently, the dollar maintained this privileged status largely due to the absence of any viable alternative.

But this dominance is being eroded.

It has become clear Israel has no plan beyond trying to force millions of Palestinians into the Sinai desert by starving and bombing all that remain in Gaza. Israel is acting as if any Egyptian objection to this plan is a bluff.

This is utter insanity. 🧵
Despite being led by a US puppet, Egypt is facing a dramatic economic crisis of their own that worsens each day of Israel’s ongoing genocide of the Palestinian people.

Both Suez transit fees and tourism—key buttresses of govt revenue—have fallen off a cliff since Oct 7.
Image
Image
Egypt's recent decision to increase transit fees betrays a level of desperation, since higher fees only make the shipping via the alternate route around Africa more attractive when new insurance risk premiums are factored in, and thus risk additional rerouting. Image

Earlier today, the UK govt convened an emergency cabinet meeting to discuss a joint US+UK joint strike on Yemen for their blockade targeting ships facilitating the ongoing genocide of Palesianians.

We are now at a critical crossroads 🧵 Image
Having spent almost a decade showing they’re incapable of wiping out the Yemeni resistance, the US+UK again plan to strike this country in hopes it will deter the Yemeni people from standing against a genocide. Image
That this paltry “coalition” lacks even the participation of what until now were reliable partners in imperialism, seems not to be a barrier to charging ahead. Image

In response to US+Israel’s ongoing genocide of Palestinians, Yemen just hit another two Israel-bound oil tankers with drones.

This is interesting for a few reasons. 🧵 Image
Firstly, the location.

Instead of hitting these ships as they transited through the Bab al-Mandab as previous strikes had, the tankers were targeted in the vicinity of the Maldives, over 2,000 km away!
Image
Image
Secondly, the lack of any reporting on these most recent strikes by western media appears deliberate. Similar to the severe undercounting of IOF casualties in Gaza, the US appears to be hoping to conceal from western audiences the true effectiveness of the multi-front resistance.

Not enough people seem to catch what happened here:

Israel stole a number of *Palestinian* children’s bodies when they raided Al-Shifa hospital last week.

They then used these bodies to stage a film for private audiences depicting the bodies as *Israeli* children.

Follow this through to its conclusion:

Not only is Israel lying about the events of Oct 7, the lengths they’re willing to go to manufacture evidence proves that the 𝘦𝘷𝘪𝘥𝘦𝘯𝘤𝘦 𝘥𝘰𝘦𝘴𝘯’𝘵 𝘦𝘹𝘪𝘴𝘵.
See I actually believe this guy saw atrocious images in the private screening he was invited to. It’s just that the images were most likely Palestinians.
