That part is pretty far-fetched.  There's just no link between Mexican drug cartels and state gun laws in the US.

I don't see any link to the USA on this BATFE operation.  Now that the BATFE answers to the Department of Homeland Security, there's no telling whose operation it was.  I guess it's a good CT in that it's so flawed, just like other CTs.

Yeah, its just as far fetched as the notion of the CIA selling drugs to the Cripts and the Bloods in LA.

Imagine Holder being Obama's Mitchell as Mitchell was to Nixon.

Here's a possible CT ...

What is the possibility that our government would allow assault weapons and other firearms to be sold knowing that the ultimate users would be Mexican drug cartels ?   And that the US Attorney General is running the operation.

And what if this was also part of a plan to cause the strengthening of gun laws in the US as a result of increased violence in Mexico tied directly to arms sales in the US ?

Nah, it could never happen here.  Must've been something I ate.

Pardon me for bringing up such a farfetched notion of a government conspiracy to run guns into Mexican Cartel hands.  No one could be stupid enough to try it anyway.

As this is only a theory and an impossible one at that, I have no credible links.

Cell phones don't have much range on their own (hence the mushroom-like prevalence of cell towers), so at sea they would rely on a shipboard cell tower - which would be powered by the ship's power source.
 
If you're talking about those large, white, spherical or bullet-shaped things that have become commonplace on all types of seagoing vessels in the last 20 years, those are fiberglass radomes.  The radomes each contain a highly directional, steerable antenna that's aimed at an INMARSAT satellite, which provides voice and data to/from the vessel.

Apparently some cruise ships do have their own cell sites, but because it would be impractical to run hundreds of miles of phone line to shore, the cell sites route calls through the INMARSAT system, at INMARSAT prices.
