US Challenges Expedition Effort to Retrieve Radio From Sunken Titanic

On Monday, US attorneys filed a legal challenge before a federal judge in Norfolk, Virginia, in an attempt to stop the planned salvage mission to retrieve the Titanic's Marconi wireless telegraph machine. They argued that allowing the expedition to happen would break federal law, as well as an agreement with the United Kingdom to leave the arguably most famous shipwreck of all time undisturbed…

The US counsel contended that the plan would violate a federal law requiring firms to get authorization from the Secretary of Commerce before conducting research or salvage operations "that would physically alter or disturb the wreck."

According to NPR, the US and the UK implemented a formal agreement back in January on how to safeguard and manage the remains of the sunken oceanliner. That agreement calls for the Titanic "to be recognized as 'a memorial to those men, women and children who perished and whose remains should be given appropriate respect,'" according to the US attorneys’ Monday filing.

Protection agreement article: https://www.npr.org/2020/01/21/798168753/titanic-wreckage-now-protected-under-u-s-u-k-deal-that-was-nearly-sunk?t=1591833542915

is this agreement the DS cover to hide evidence that it is Olympic and not Titanic that sank? (insurance fraud. bloodlines.)

e.g.,

Could White Star and its owner JP Morgan have devised an audacious insurance scam to try and salvage their investment in the troubled Olympic line?

The Olympic, the theory goes, would be swapped with the Titanic and sunk in a staged accident. The Titanic, now disguised as the Olympic, would then carry on in service.

The two ships were essentially identical save for minor differences and were moored side by side in dry dock; the swap would entail nothing more elaborate that swapping a few nameplates and plaques.

An oceanographer and Navy officer, Ballard was building an underwater research vessel to realize his lifelong dream of finding the Titanic. Unable to source adequate funding for the project, he approached the Navy for help. Deputy Chief of Naval Operations Ronald Thunman was receptive, but wanted to bargain: The Navy would allow Ballard to hunt for the Titanic if he promised to find the Thresher and the Scorpion, two U.S. nuclear submarines that were sitting on Atlantic ocean floor.

"They did not want the world to know that, so I had to have a cover story," Ballard told CNN.

The Thresher and the Scorpion, both sunken in the 1960s, were idle troves of nuclear military technology. The Navy was intent on investigating the wreckage without tipping its hand to the Soviet Union that they were there in the first place.

anon still believes the Thresher / Scorpion secret mission was actually the cover story forthe real op, which was to locate Titanic wreck to confirm / deny Olympic swap hypothesis.

Was Team Q (or a precusor) operating as far back as 1985?

DS engineered Boer Wart, WWI, and most likely WWII, Vietnam War, Gulf War, Afghanistan, JFK, 9/11, muh Russia, …

so yes, Titanic-Olympic swap a definite possibility.

There was a nationwide coal strike during the launch of the Titanic, leading to thousands of firemen, boiler stokers and greasers short of work.

Yet despite this the Titanic struggled to find crew, with many men refusing to work on the ship at any price.

Rumours were circulating amongst the workers at Harland and Wolff that the ships had been swapped as part of an insurance scam, and Titanic was to be sunk.

Did foreknowledge of the sinking of the Titanic frighten men off from wanting to work on the ship?
