This sentence has unequal ideas joined by a subordination conjunction.
Since the ideas in the sentence imply causation (the broken pulleys caused the inability to raise the flag) it means that the ideas are unequal. It is also necessary to join them with a subordinating conjunction, which show the causality within the sentence. In this case that subordination conjunction is "because".

Is this a show, movie, or book?
Jonas's father described Release as "cleaning him (the baby) up and gets him comfy, performs a Ceremony of Release, and waves bye bye."
Hope that helped you.
