7.8 Earthquake Hits China, Thousands Dead!

This is horrible news...months before China is supposed to host the next Olympics, She has been hit with a 7.8 Earthquake effecting more than have of her populated areas.

The part that made my stomach turn was finding that a school with nearly 1,000 kids, collapsed, trapping them in debris.

CNN Story.

How sad. I hate to say this but we might have to expect this more often in the near future.

I didn't see that footage, but I saw one where some mid sized buildings were crumbling and people were in the streets scared as hell.

This appears to be a "Sign Of The Times". With everything happening in the world lately it makes one wonder what can possibly go wrong next other then:

Kids getting sick from immunizations
Oil prices sky rocketing
Food prices getting out of hand
Job lay offs
Medical insurance at an all time low
Foreclosures on homes
School system budget cuts
Teen preg

Kinda reminds me of the song "Ball Of Confusion" by the Temptations. This situation is only going to get worst and there's not a damn thing anyone can, will, or chooses to do about it.

No matter where we look or how bad things seems to devestate others, it all falls on our shoulders because it's going on everywhere. (Lately)

Indeed. Its hard to believe that such a Quake could be going on in one end of the world while a series of Tornadoes are hitting the other ends of the world. Freighting.

I talked with my mom last night and she was telling me that news casters are expecting a major earthquake to hit LA in the not to distant future. With all due respect to China, I told her that the powers that be are planning this because they "plan" to initiate it!

Scientist understand the major faults and how to upset the balance in them.

We are at a point in history when those who are awake understand that it is no longer possible to pretend that man would not do something simply because it would be unthinkably evil. H.A.A.R.P proves that anything man is capable of doing, he WILL do.
Excerpt from a 1996 Air Force Executive Summary:

"Weather modification will become a part of domestic and international security and could be done unilaterally, through alliance networks--particularly regional ones--or through an ad hoc coalition or a UN framework. It could have offensive and defensive applications and even be used for deterrence purposes. The ability to generate precipitation, fog, and storms on earth or to modify space weather, improve communications through ionospheric modification (the use of ionospheric mirrors), and the production of artificial weather all are a part of an integrated set of technologies which can provide substantial increase in US, or degraded capability in an adversary, to achieve global awareness, reach, and power. Weather modification will be a part of 2025 and is an area in which the US must invest if only to be able to counter adversaries seeking such a capability."
Is it unrealistic to consider the possibility that the atypical current spat of natural disasters might be tests of US military H.A.A.R.P. weaponry?

This month's Atlantic Monthly magazine has a scary story about how there is a 1 in 10 chance that the earth will suffer from a "space rock" collision in the next century. The magazine asks why NASA is not preparing to avert such a catastrophe. But, I think a more important question would be "Is NASA already working on creating just such a catastrophe"?

The Sky Is Falling

FACT: On March 18, 2004, a 30 meter object from space shot dangerous past the earth. The official story is that it was 2004 FH, the designated name for what NASA is calling an asteroid which passed near the orbit of existing telecommmunication satellites. Is it possible that 2004 actually was a US telecommunication satellite, intentionally aimed off the bow of Planet Earth as a test of some new "weapon" dreamed up by cray-zee pranoid white folks?

Hell, yeah, it is possible.

2004 FH Asteroid

FACT: An asteroid, 30 meters in size just like 2004 FH, exploded above Tunguska, Siberia back in 1908. According to the aforementioned Atlantic article, this asteroid was also 30 meters just like 2004 FH. If it had exploded above major cities such as London or Paris it would have leveled them with a force hundreds of times more powerful than the bomb white folks used on Hiroshima.

1908 Tunguska Explosion

Could the 2004 FH near-miss have been staged by the same psychotic fools who designed Reagan's "Star Wars" defense system? Is it possible that they were testing a new weapon designed to simulate the 1908 Tunguska asteroid?

Hell, yeah, it is possible.
