Other way around. I bet it's US cutting off access to the 'terrorists'

I bet a lot of their funds come via bank transfers. I mean, the US has been pissing around with Iran for a while now, and they suddenly lose all internet access? With no commercial or civilian ships in the area?

US sub, or US sharks with frickin lasers.

Or maybe the Navy's dolphin training program has come a lot farther than anyone thinks

This is CANNOT be coincidence. I also read that Iran/Tehran had a 100% drop in Internet traffic since the damage, according to an global Internet traffic/bandwidth tracking site.

That's bunk. Trust me.

The Port of Alexandria, Egypt is trying to save face. During rough seas, the port authority instructed ships to deeper water. In doing so, the cables were damaged.

5th cable. Still bunk?

This just proves that the internet is American stuff.
