1994: Estnic ferry Estonia sunk after collision with submarine?

Currently, I stand in the middle here. Certainly, there would have been quite extensive damage to the sub if it had indeed collided with Estonia. Such a small sub against a big ship won't end well, and it would have surfaced only in the direst circumstances because as Kapitan said, it was too rough for it to be a suitable place to surface because of the weather. Surfacing would only occur after having received *extensive* damage and it could not be fixed. I am pretty sure also that it would have left some tell-tale signature on the boat or the debris in the water, maybe even a part of the submarine is on the seabed. Also, it would be a pretty hard thing to cover-up in the case of debris or eye-witness reports etc.

Then there is the unprofessional act with the Prime Minister of Sweeden and the Russian Ambassador. It certainly does seem a little fishy.

Other than that, I'm not taking a stand here.
