Ohio train wreck – hidden motive?

Ohio train wreck – hidden motive?
By Terry A. Hurlbut
On February 3, 2023, a Norfolk Southern train derailed near East Palestine, Ohio. The train was carrying a number of hazardous chemicals, including vinyl chloride, a highly lethal toxin and carcinogen. The handling of this train wreck has been atrocious, and now federal authorities will not send any disaster aid. In all this, the legacy media has maintained near-total silence. Furthermore, the country has seen more train wrecks involving hazardous materials in other parts of the country. Does this represent incompetence? Or does it represent a darker, hidden motive?
Ohio train wreck – what we know
The train derailed on Friday, February 3. The next Monday, authorities evacuated everyone within a mile of the wreck. Then they decided to burn off the vinyl chloride in most of the train’s tank cars. When they did that, they released hydrogen chloride and phosgene gases into the air. (Phosgene, or carbonyl dichloride, has a history of use in chemical warfare.)

Now authorities insist that the water is safe to drink, and the air safe to breathe. But farm animals have died all over Columbiana County, where East Palestine (pronounced Pah-leh-STEEN) sits. Naturally people were skeptical from the beginning.

Gov. Mike DeWine (R-Ohio) gave a press conference on February 8. Police arrested a reporter for daring ask discomfiting questions, charging him with disorderly conduct. (Authorities have since dropped those charges.) This video segment contains Ohio State Highway Patrol footage of the arrest and the lead-up:

The description of the above video contains a detailed statement from the East Palestine Police Department.
Three days ago, East Palestine held a town hall to discuss the train wreck, the cleanup, and the state of the environment. The Norfolk Southern Railroad did not send any representatives. The railroad professed concern for their employees’ safety – safety from whom or what, the railroad didn’t say.
Senator Vance of Ohio steps in and offers direct management
The Environmental Protection Agency insists the area is safe. In response, Senator J. D. Vance (R-Ohio) dared the local EPA agent to drink the water himself. Senator Vance did more than that:

https://twitter.com/JDVance1/status/1626350642401878016
Senator Vance’ video of his personal test of a local creek went viral, with 4.7 million views as of yesterday afternoon. But his letting people know where to arrange for testing of private wells is even more telling. It shows that he is a true representative of his State.
The Secretary of Transportation tried to blame former President Trump for the wreck. At issue is a regulation involving railcar brakes that Trump allegedly lifted. Other rail experts have said that regulation had nothing to do with the Ohio train wreck.
One other person said the scene in Ohio is literally out of a recent Netflix movie – set in East Palestine. (White Noise, dir. Noah Baumbach, with Adam Driver, Greta Gerwig, and Don Cheadle; Netflix, 2022.)

Governors Mike DeWine and Josh Shapiro (D-Pa.) both say the area is safe. (Columbiana County shares a border with Pennsylvania.)

Twitter user Kanekoa the Great started a thread last Monday, and added to it in the ensuing days. He calls it the largest environmental disaster in American history.

One user flatly declared that the Ohio event was a depopulation event. He recalled two of his previous threads:
https://twitter.com/speirin/status/1597003314709037061
https://twitter.com/speirin/status/1616385391564623872
Then he made this point:
https://twitter.com/speirin/status/1625271047044857857
Other reaction consisted of equal parts speculation on the wider effects, and a call for any prominent influencer to share the story more widely. These two tweets come from the wider-effect side:

Still another user shared this video:

Analysis
Train wrecks actually happen far more often than people think. In fact, wrecking a train is ridiculously and frighteningly easy, according to CNAV’s intelligence into the rail industry.
As one user pointed out, Ohio has 75,000 farms, and individuals and families own 90 percent of them. Moreover, the rural-urban divide becomes relevant here. Joseph R. Biden, if he legitimately won election, is the President of the cities, not of the countryside. Comments from members of his cabinet might as well come from him; they all think as he does. And they pour contempt upon rural Americans, and are insulting their intelligence when they say the local environment is safe. Senator Vance has clearly shown that it is not. (In fact, Senator Vance might want to arrange for private protection after giving the EPA the lie as he did.)
Big companies do big things, and sometimes they make big mistakes. But if they won’t own those mistakes, no one can trust them. Norfolk Southern will rue the day they tried to cover this event up.
But suppose, as User Henry Joseph-Grant suggests, the Ohio train wreck was not an accident? Who, for example, decided to burn off vinyl chloride, thus producing and releasing hydrogen chloride and phosgene? That is carelessness of a phenomenal order – or very deadly sabotage. Add to it the other chemical release events throughout the country, and mysterious fires destroying food processing plants.
Once is happenstance, twice is coincidence, and the third time it’s enemy action.
