Iran being literaly cut off the Internet
It’s becoming obvious that this is not a coincidence.
Reports of the FOURTH submarine cable that got cut just came in.
Who’s trying to make ANYONE believe this is just a mere coincidence or unlucky accidents?
DOHA (AFP) — An undersea telecoms cable linking Qatar to the United Arab Emirates was damaged, disrupting services, telecommunications provider Qtel said on Sunday, the latest such incident in less than a week.
The cause of the damage is not yet known.
Of cooouuurrrssseee, yes! just! another! coincidence!
Tell that to whoever you like.
But this is beyond conspiracy, this is just too statistically improbable to not be deliberate.
There have also been reports that there were NO ships present at the time the cables were cut.
And even better, no one’s gonna fix it any time soon, because of the bad weather.

My BS meter is off the
My BS meter is off the charts on this one. Israel and Iraq have internet...
It will be very interesting to see how this region adapts. Hopefully, they have good measures to deter any serious geopolitical consequences through sustained media presence. I'm pretty sure the whole world sees the big picture on this. It's surprising that not one MSM outlet in the states has picked this up. This fact just confirms who is behind it.
According to CNN...
According to CNN that cable outage does not extend to Israel, Lebanon and Iraq.

Egypt denies the earlier reports on the Mideast Internet outage, saying there were no ships present around when the cables were cut off.
Egypt's Ministry of Communications announced in a statement Sunday that "a marine transport committee investigated the traffic of ships in the area, 12 hours before and after the malfunction, where the cables are located to figure out the possibility of being cut by a passing vessel and found out there were no passing ships at that time.”
The Ministry had originally stated that a ship dropping its anchor on the two key cables was most likely responsible for Wednesday's cut in service that robbed Egypt, Saudi Arabia and India of much of their internet.
The statement added that the location, 8.3 kilometers from the port of Alexandria, was in a restricted area so ships would not have been allowed there to begin with.
Internet blackouts are impacting large tracts of Asia, the Middle East and North Africa after four undersea cable connections were severed.
Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, Bahrain, Pakistan and India, are all experiencing severe problems.

At the outset of the war, the Germans had five transatlantic cables that ran through the English Channel. One went to Brest in France, another to Vigo in Spain, one to Tenerife in North Africa and two to New York via the Azores. The English cable ship Telconia cut them all in England's first offensive action in the war.

Sounds like the work of a small submarine with working arms ...
Does anyone know if Israel or Blackwater has a submarine?

We have had FOUR underground data cables cut (two on Wednesday and two on Friday) which carry internet, telephone and data traffic. Whereas one cut a year in the whole world is not unusual (other than after a major earthquake), now we have 4 in the same region within 2 days. "Internet Traffic Report" shows Iran completely isolated from the rest of the world, and Egypt heavily affected, whilst Israel remains unaffected.
NO WAY is this a coincidence.
