IMO, this news story really exemplifies how naive the public is, and how heavily we rely on corporate media.

There's a few things the major news sources have simply left out of their reporting...

First of all, try rationalizing 5 cables getting cut in one week and them all being an accident. These cable placed in 'no-go' zones of the Mediterranean, and it's common knowledge for ships in this part of the world that you simply don't use that area of the water, much less drop an anchor there.

See this news story for more: http://globalresearch.ca/index.php?context=va&aid=7993


Second, how incredibly coincidental that these 5 'accidental' tears in the internet cable come the week that Iran planned to open an Oil commodity exchange that was going to rely heavily on the internet to operate. The Iran oil bourse was the first major market that is not using the US greenback as a currency.

Here's a news report speculating on this: http://collateral.blip.tv/#653043

These events go much deeper than a simple tear in some cable. It's part of the reason Iran is the US's next target. I hate to sound like I'm crying conspiracy, but it's no secret what lengths the US will go to protect their interests.

Another thought provoking read: http://globalresearch.ca/articles/CLA410A.html

Independent news is a powerful tool.
