Okay, I'll grant that 5 cut cables in this amount of time is strange, to say the least. However, this does not mean that internet connectivity has been cut off to Iran or anywhere else in the mideast. I'm more than a little weary of these half-ass news stories that cite woefully inaccurate sources and our willingness to add fuel to the speculatory fire.
I'm willing to suspend judgment until more information is forthcoming. For all we know some monstrous bull shark is adding fiber to his diet. Okay, I know that's unlikely I'm just pointing out that we don't know. I refuse to get sucked up into the current buffet of fear and suspicion this administration dishes out daily.
Could be armageddon by dinner time or it may be a huge ho hum. Why am I refusing to get wound around the axle over this? Because either way there is not a damned thing I can do about it from where I sit.
I know it can be fun to sit here and spin doomsday scenarios, but really. What will it accomplish?
I've contacted some media outlets inquiring about the story and what is being done to investigate. I've also put a call into some folks I know in the international communication industry. So here I sit and wait. I'll probably be told nothing, but at least I've done all I can. What I won't do is engage in rumors, innuendo and fear mongering.
