Major catastrophe as earthquake smashes Haiti

[82_28]

Today I was telling those I work with, including my boss, about the easy way to donate a quick 5 or 10 bucks to the Haiti relief fund(s). His response?

"Nobody bailed out San Francisco when they had their quake."

Plus:

"I have kids. I can't afford that kind of shit."

FIVE BUCKS!

But, he is a rightwing idiot. Utterly no empathy, sense of humor or intuition about how politics and such work. Oh, and no sense of irony. But, by the grace of god, I still like him.

I wanted to, but didn't tell him, a "mere" 67 people died in that Loma Prieta quake and OF COURSE San Francisco was "bailed out". Aid was most certainly sent -- DUH.

Very truly though, a snapshot of the Ugly American. There is nothing we can do.

Televangelist Pat Robertson Says Earthquake Payback for Haiti's "Pact With the Devil"

[82_28]

The devil returns.

6.1 aftershock just now.

Heaven have mercy on their souls. . .

I mean that in the non Pat Robertson way. . .

[82_28]

Ugh. So many people must be horribly terrified.

I know that after our 6.8 quake up here in Seattle like 10 years ago, it took me like 5 months to get straight. Any little vibration of any sort would set me off into a state of worry. But our buildings here are like quake proof and shit and our quake was really deep, so it was "softened". I cannot imagine, in fact I sorta can, how horrible it is in Haiti. But I still cannot imagine.

Let us pray. . .

does anyone have an opinion(dumb question i know:) as to the accuracy of this story?

“

Last Tuesday, from his room at the Hotel Montana near Port-au-Prince, Haiti, U.S. Air Force Maj. Ken Bourland sent an e-mail to his wife telling her that he was fine and had just settled in for what was going to be an exciting time taking a disaster preparedness course.”

A Haiti disaster relief scenario had been envisaged at the headquarters of US Southern Command SOUTHCOM in Miami one day prior to the earthquake.

The holding of pre-disaster simulations pertained to the impacts of a hurricane in Haiti. They were held on January 10. (Bob Brewin,Defense launches online system to coordinate Haiti relief efforts (1/15/10) — GovExec.com, complete text of article is contained in Annex)

The Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA), which is under the jurisdiction of the Department of Defense (DoD), was involved in organizing these scenarios on behalf of US Southern Command.(SOUTHCOM).

Defined as a “Combat Support Agency”, DISA has a mandate to provide IT and telecommunications, systems, logistics services in support of the US military. (See DISA website: Defense Information Systems Agency).

On the day prior to the earthquake, “on Monday [January 11, 2010], Jean Demay, DISA’s technical manager for the agency’s Transnational Information Sharing Cooperation project, happened to be at the headquarters of the U.S. Southern Command in Miami preparing for a test of the system in a scenario that involved providing relief to Haiti in the wake of a hurricane.” (Bob Brewin, op cit, emphasis added)

The Transnational Information Sharing Cooperation project (TISC) is a communications-information tool which “links non-government organizations with the United States [government and military] and other nations for tracking, coordinating and organizing relief efforts”.(Government IT Scrambles To Help Haiti, TECHWEB January 15, 2010).

The TISC is an essential component of the militarization of emergency relief. The US military through DISA oversees the information – communications system used by participating aid agencies. Essentially, it is a communications sharing system controlled by the US military, which is made available to approved non-governmental partner organizations. The Defense Information Systems Agency also “provides bandwidth to aid organizations involved in Haiti relief efforts.”

There are no details on the nature of the tests conducted on January 11 at SOUTHCOM headquarters.

another tmely "exercise". just like the "exercises" to prepare for planes into buildings(before 9/11/2001 and levees breaking in new orleans(before katrina).
i'm starting to wonder if it really is possible to trigger an earthquake. massive devastation in haiti, nothing on the other end of the island in the dominican republic.

This could explain some of it! (And global warming too!):

Haiti Earthquake Conspiracy, HAARP, EISCAT Experiments on January 12, 2010

UPDATED 1-17-10, Revisiting HAARP Patents and Arecibo Observatory at http://ahrcanum.wordpress.com/2010/01/18/haiti-earthquake-conspiracy-haarp-patents-arecibo/

Read this post and click to the UPDATED post on 01-16-2010 where you can listen to HAARP Recorded Sound Waves the day of the Earthquake in Haiti here http://ahrcanum.wordpress.com/2010/01/1 ... es-listen/

The 7.0 Earthquake striking Haiti has destroyed much of The Haitian National Palace and most of Haiti as well. With most living well under the poverty line on $2 a day and one of four living with mud floors, one can only imagine the devastation to a country that was barely hanging on after being hit with four hurricanes. The rich in the cement homes were crushed to death while the poor survived in tents.

Is it nature communicating to Haiti or is it some man made force of destruction that has by some estimates killed half a million people?

January 12, 2010 the day of the earthquake numerous celestial events were occurring, including the recent announcement of an unknown approaching object in earth atmosphere that science believes is an asteroid, 2010 AL30. http://ahrcanum.wordpress.com/2010/01/1 ... -2010al30/

Earthquakes can be heralded by changes in the ionosphere – the earth’s upper atmosphere on the edge of space. Just before the earthquake struck Sichuan province in China there were odd visual disturbances and they were caught on tape. One puzzle is that the colors in the Chinese clouds were upside down from a normal circumzenithal halo – red pointing toward the horizon and blue to wards the Sun, instead of the other way round.

There are reports of the use of HAARP and plasma weapons that influence our 3rd planet from the sun, and us mere mortals who inhabit it. The bizarre Benjamin Fulford [ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benjamin_Fulford] talks sometimes with radical expressions, tries to bring clarity to current events and takes note of anomalies that occur before earthquakes.

He also rants of a complex web of global financial control at the hands of the Rockefeller’s and Rothschild’s. Could Tesla’s scientific discoveries be what the global political monetary elite need to further enhance The New World Order? Would a secret government use HAARP to do dastardly deeds?

Conceivably then, if one were to mess with the ionosphere could you cause an earthquake ? HAARP is based out of Alaska, where not only are we witnessing an increase of earthquakes, but the eruption of volcanoes. http://www.haarp.alaska.edu/ The site gives the impression that HAARP is of academic use, but what of military use and popluation control? What about disruptions to airplane and missile guidance systems? Could shifts in the earths electromagnet fields {EMF} completely knock out communications? No wonder Sarah Palin is staying close to home.

Is HAARP responsible for the global warming hysteria? Could it now alter the weather? In 1958, then chief White House adviser on weather modification- Captain Howard T. Orville said the U.S. Defense Department was looking for ways, ”to manipulate the charges of the earth and sky and so affect the weather by using an electronic beam to ionize or de- ionize the atmosphere over a specific area. Today, an ice bridge in the Antarctic collapsed and the Wilkins Ice Shelf could be on the brink of breaking away. http://www.redorbit.com/news/science/16 ... antarctic/ Is HAARP melting ice? Is HAARP mapping weather patterns, agricultural seasons and crop cycles, or influencing them?

In the book, Angels Don’t Play This Haarp: Advances in Tesla Technology by Nick Begich, provides documentation, patent numbers and references that are far from science fiction. http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/ ... tywebsi05/

Research continues from scientists outside of HAARP. PhysOrg.com reports on the world of quantum mechanics finding that solid particles could exhibit properties of waves; not just light waves. The research is so new that it’s uses are still untold. http://www.physorg.com/news157375449.html Makes me think of Star Trek and beam me up potential. Could we see astral projections from this kind of technology?

Not only are we seeing an increase of earthquakes, but reports from Maryland, Virginia and North Carolina described brilliant, streaking lights followed by an explosion-like sounds. They also reported seeing “great balls of fire” lighting up the sky in shades of yellow, white orange and blue. Hat tip to http://anointedvessel.wordpress.com/200 ... omment-200 U.S. Naval Observatory blamed it all on exploding space junk from the Russian Soyuz rocket.

North Korea says it sent a satellite into orbit as part of a peaceful space program, and that the device is broadcasting revolutionary music over Earth. Perhaps some exploding junk was over Italy causing the earthquake- U.S. military said nothing entered into orbit.

A lot to consider in the conspiracy realm of heaven, earth and all things invisable and unknown. In reality, we will have a full moon on April 9. This full moon marks the beginning of Passover and setting the date for the feast of Easter. Also known as the Paschal Moon, Grass Moon, or Egg Moon, it is the first Full Moon to occur after the vernal equinox, the annual awakening of life after the long winter.

The morning of the 8th features Birkat Hachamah, the Jewish ritual of “Blessing the Sun” which occurs every 28 years. According to Talmudic tradition, the Sun was created on the fourth day, which was a Wednesday. In Roman times the new year began on the day of the vernal equinox, which fell on March 25 some 2400 years ago. http://www.usno.navy.mil/USNO/tours-eve ... -3-10-2009

Let’s hope HAARP doesn’t zap the Easter Bunny.

Royal Navy Flotilla Withdrawn to Cut Costs, Weeks Before Haiti Disaster; First Gap in Cover in Caribbean Since 17th Century

Hugo says the US caused the quake with a secret weapon:

http://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2010/01/21/chavez_us_weapon_test_caused_haiti_earthquake.html

Russia Today: Venezuelan leader Hugo Chavez has once again accused the United States of playing God. But this time it's Haiti's disastrous earthquake that he thinks the U.S. was behind. Spanish newspaper ABC quotes Chavez as saying that the U.S. navy launched a weapon capable of inducing a powerful earthquake off the shore of Haiti. He adds that this time it was only a drill and the final target is ... destroying and taking over Iran.

i'm starting to wonder if it really is possible to trigger an earthquake. massive devastation in haiti, nothing on the other end of the island in the dominican republic.

I'm wondering the same thing. There was also a "timely" exercise in London for the 7/7 bombings.

Means, motive, opportunity?

Means is the question for me at this point. HAARP or some other unknown technology wouldn't surprise me in the least.

Motive could be this:

The Militarization of the Caribbean Basin

Washington seeks to reinstate Haiti as a full-fledged US colony, with all the appearances of a functioning democracy. The objective is to impose a puppet regime in Port-au-Prince and establish a permanent US military presence in Haiti.

The US Administration ultimately seeks to militarize the Caribbean basin.

The island of Hispaniola is a gateway to the Caribbean basin, strategically located between Cuba to the North West and Venezuela to the South. The militarization of the island, with the establishment of US military bases, is not only intended to put political pressure on Cuba and Venezuela, it is also geared towards the protection of the multibillion dollar narcotics transshipment trade through Haiti, from production sites in Colombia, Peru and Bolivia.

The militarisation of the Caribbean basin is, in some regards, similar to that imposed by Washington on the Andean Region of South America under "Plan Colombia', renamed "The Andean Initiative". The latter constitutes the basis for the militarisation of oil and gas wells, as well as pipeline routes and transportation corridors. It also protects the narcotics trade.

Opportunity for the above is well under way with the U.S. military in place. Next will we see Halliburton and defense contractors building a lavish U.S. embassy in the upcoming green zone at Port-au-Prince?

Nah, I think it's the oil. Check out what's been posted on that on one of the other earthquake threads recently, maybe back a page from this one.

Is Istanbul, Turkey's MegaCity, the Next "Haiti"? - A Code Red Earthquake Zone

Is Istanbul, Turkey's megacity and fifth largest city proper in the world with a population of 12.6 million as well as the cultural and financial centre of the nation poised for disaster?

The chain of earthquakes along the North Anatolian fault shows a gap south of Istanbul. A new computer study now shows that the tensions in this part of the fault zone could trigger several earthquakes instead of one individual large quake event.

The Izmit-Earthquake of August 1999 resulted in 18,000 death victims and was, with a magnitude of 7.4, the most recent quake of a series, which began in 1939 to the east of Turkey and gradually ran along the plate border between the Anatolian and the Eurasian Plate from east to west. Therefore, the next quake in this series is expected to take place west of Izmit, south of Istanbul.

An important factor in judging seismic hazard is the movement rates of the tectonic fault. For their study Tobias Hergert of the Karlsruhe Institute for Technology and Oliver Heidbach of GFZ German Research, divided the area into 640,000 elements, in order to determine the kinetics of the fault system.

2111 Their model results indicats that the built-up tension in the Earth's crust can also unload in two or three earthquakes with a smaller magnitude rather than in one enormous quake. This, however, by no means implies an all-clear for Istanbul. The authors explicitly point out in their article that the short distance of the main fault to Istanbul still represents an extreme earthquake risk for the megacity. The fault zone is less than 20 kilometres from the city boundary, and disaster precaution before the occurrence of a quake is essential.

Thanks chig. So, what's your take on whether this might have been a man-made (man-induced) quake?

[chiggerbit]

With the very complex geology down there, I guess I'd go with natural. But, I do remember quotes by some pretty high-up people who believed that we were messing with that kind of thing. Also, complexities go with vulnerabilities. I'd say that area would be easy to manipulate due to the vulnerabilities. The only problem would be that, once that kind of thing is started, it would become difficult to control the eventual outcome, especially that close to home. So, my money would stay on natural.
