'WW3 has already started': Alex Jones leads unhinged reaction to Baltimore bridge collapse

Right-wing conspiracy theorist Alex Jones reacted to the collapse of the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore with completely apocalyptic and fact-free speculation.

The bridge collapsed early on Tuesday morning when a shipping vessel apparently lost power and crashed into it. Law enforcement officials are still investigating the cause of the incident but they have said at this time they do not have any evidence that this was a terrorist attack.

However, this did not stop Jones from claiming that the bridge collapse was part of something far more nefarious.

"Looks deliberate to me," Jones wrote. "A cyber-attack is probable. WW3 has already started."

Jones' comments came in response to a post by accused sex trafficker Andrew Tate, who also claimed that the "ship was cyber-attacked" to force it to crash into the bridge.

"Nothing is safe," Tate commented. "Black Swan event imminent."

Tate and Jones weren't the only conspiracy theorists who suspected foul play regarding the bridge collapse.

Media Matters' Matthew Gertz also flagged two accounts that tried to pin the blame on Israel for the incident.

"Israel cancels its visit to Washington after the US allows the UNA Gaza cease-fire resolution to pass and then the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore is attacked?" wrote one account. "This is not a coincidence, nor was it an accident!"

"Pure co-incident?" wrote another. "The US allows the United Nation ceasefire resolution. Israel cancels Washington visit after US allows UN Gaza ceasefire resolution. Dali collides with the Baltimore Bridge."

It is worth repeating that there is no evidence so far of any foul play in the bridge collapse, let alone evidence that the Israeli government engineered it in retaliation for the passage of a UN ceasefire resolution.
