Are the recent U.S. Navy 7th
Fleet ship collisions due to our Navy ships being hacked by an adversary?
Russia? China? North Korea? Iran?
Or are the collisions simply due
to an eight-year degrade of military standards, where Obama’s top policy
leaders were far more interested in forcing social change than warfighting, and
sailors attended far more sensitivity and other social-awareness training than ship
handling training? We shall see.
Edmund DeMarche at
foxnews.com offers a piece on the U.S. Navy looking to a possible cyber-attack
and other reasons for the collision.
A top U.S. Navy admiral on
Monday called for a swift and thorough investigation into Monday's collision of
the USS John S. McCain into an oil tanker near Singapore-- marking the second
deadly mishap that occurred in the Pacific in the past three months.
Adm. John Richardson ordered
an operational pause in all the fleets around the world while the Navy works to
determine the factors behind the collision. Richardson tweeted that the Navy
will conduct a wide investigation, including a review into the possibility of
"cyber intrusion or sabotage."
