The giant Ever Given container ship that clogged up the Suez Canal for six days isn’t out of the news just yet.
After it was freed, Egyptian authorities towed the 1,300-foot ship to Great Bitter Lake, a wider expanse of the canal where authorities would be able to inspect the vessel for damage.
Within days, dubious websites posted stories that claimed that the U.S. Navy SEALs took part in the inspection and found dead bodies and over 1,000 trafficked children on board.
“Navy Seals rescue over a thousand trafficked children and dead bodies out of shipping containers in the Suez Canal,” reads the all-caps headline of an April 3 post by a blog called the Marshall Report.
One person who shared the story on their Facebook page wrote, “YOU CAN’T MAKE THIS STUFF UP!!”
But it is made up.
The post was flagged as part of Facebook’s efforts to combat false news and misinformation on its News Feed. (Read more about our partnership with Facebook.)
The blog post repeats claims made in another article headlined, “Trafficked Children, Bodies, Weapons Found on Evergreen Ship Blocking Suez Canal,” published by a website called Before It’s News — a site that has published bogus news stories before.
It says unnamed “sources say” children were still being rescued and bodies discovered in the Ever Given’s 18,000-plus containers.
Capt. Bill Urban, a spokesman for U.S. Central Command, told PolitiFact there is “no truth” to the rumor.
The ship was not raided by the SEALs and there’s no evidence any children or bodies were found on board. Ever Given was reported to be carrying an array of consumer goods, including Ikea furniture.
The blog also contained unfounded claims about the Clintons and Wayfair, which we have debunked before.
We rate this post Pants on Fire!
Over a thousand trafficked children and dead bodies have been rescued out of shipping containers in the Suez Canal by US Navy Seals. Sources say that as of this writing, children were still being rescued and bodies discovered in Evergreen’s 18,000+ containers. The containers were on an Evergreen Corporation ship that blocked the Canal from Tues. 23 March to Mon 29 March, causing billions in lost revenue to shipping companies internationally.
The Seals also found Weapons of Mass Destruction on the six story high vessel – which were believed destined to start a war in the Middle East.
Finally by Tues. the Evergreen cargo ship was loosened and taken to Bitter Lake in Egypt. By order of the Egyptian President, the containers were taken off the ship and searched by US Navy Seals.
The Japanese-owned, Taiwanese-operated ship of Evergreen Corporation was actually co-owned by Walmart and the Clinton Foundation – known for it’s international child trafficking ring. The children were said ordered out of magazines like Wayfair by pedophiles who paid big bucks for certain abused children.
Think this was just a conspiracy theory? Here was the testimony of a brave Trafficked Survivor who claimed that as a child, she was strapped inside one of those Evergreen human trafficking containers:
Evergreen was believed to not only be carrying trafficked children, but Weapons of Mass Destruction. Many other ships that were blocked in the Suez Canal last week were also discovered to be carrying weapons – believed to be used to start a war in the Middle-East. Why? The weapons were going to be given to the Muslims by the Israel Mossad.
Human traffickers were being arrested and cartels busted – losing critical income for their owners worldwide. The Deep State Operation was said to have lost 400 million $ an hour while the ships were stuck for a week – that would pale in comparison to what those children were undergoing.
Evergreen vessels were having problems in ports all over the world. Why? Why were Special Ops US Navy Seals magically on the scene to rescue the children? Was the ship purposely run aground? It was rumored that holes in Microsoft software allowed someone, or ones, to hack into the Evergreen ship software, take over the steering and run it into the bank.
We may never be given the whole story. So far the Evergreen ship’s Capitan in the Suez Canal has refused to cooperate. Now why on earth would a Ship’s Captain not cooperate, unless there were major reasons? Won’t hand over the black box?
Why would a vessel of that size from Taiwan list it’s first destination as the Netherlands? Why would the below news article NOT mention Amsterdam? (Only Dutch) Lots of significant signals and clues were being released. Egypt could seek $1 billion from ship Ever Given: https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/world/2021/04/01/suez-canal-blockage-egypt-could-seek-1-billion-ship-ever-given/4833205001/
Guido Fawkes Telegram on Thurs. 1 April: “Ever Given has been boarded by the US Navy Seals and they have opened several cargo containers with live and dead inside. The vessel is in Bitter Lake and the Navy is performing unloading procedures. No images will be leaked, but I have been sent one.”
