### Gulf of Aden Naval Presence and Stargate Theories

- **Episode:** [257: The Moment of Truth](https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/257-the-moment-of-truth.md)
- **Published:** 2010-12-02
- **Time:** 1:46:55–1:49:53
- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/257-the-moment-of-truth/chapter/gulf-of-aden-naval-presence-and-stargate-theories.md

A massive international naval presence in the Gulf of Aden, involving dozens of countries, is theorized to be monitoring a "vortex" or "stargate" rather than fighting pirates. The hosts suggest this atmospheric disturbance is responsible for the record-breaking cold and snow currently affecting Europe and the UK. The presence of submarines and aircraft carriers is cited as overkill for simple anti-piracy missions.
