8.5 magnitude quake rocks western S America
Sat, 27 Feb 2010 07:17:41 GMT
A massive magnitude-8.5 earthquake has struck western coastal areas of Chile, triggering tsunami warnings for the South American country and neighboring Peru and Ecuador.
The early morning giant tremor hit offshore Chile around 100 kilometers northwest of Concepcion, the capital of Concepcion Province, on Saturday.
Residents around the area have been quoted by local media as telling reporters of trembles in buildings and power cuts in parts of the Chilean capital of Santiago.
A tsunami watch has also been issued for Ecuador and Peru, the Pacific Tsunami Warning Center reported.

as a warning to Australia, Great Britain, the US as to what could happen to their major cities, most if not all of whom are vulnerable to tsunamis, if they'd seriously follow on the Dubai investigations and/or refuse to back an attack on Iran/engage in war against Iran with or for them...
Call me paranoid but it's no secret the Israeli have a very large nuclear arsenal as well as a few state of the art submarines (whose wherabouts and activities in world oceans aren't monitored as they are such good friends).
If I where them (knowing their psychology and total disregard for human life) I would certainly have planted a significant quantities of those nukes in the seabeds near major world cities by now and I would be in a position where I could wipe off the map London, New York, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Houston, Canberra, Sydney, etc... and completely collapse those countries by doing so at any time if necessary while passing it as natural phenomenon...
I am nearly 100% certain that is what they have done with a significant quantity of their nukes, and, regardless if this earthquake is natural or man-made, which I suspect, the world's number one concern should be the hunting and destruction of israelis nukes IMHO...

Whether or not the quake was natural or man made, do you think the zio rulers of all the countries you mentioned above are really all that concerned about the populations of the countries that they rule? I very much doubt it. But you are correct. Just in case some decent people get in governments which is unlikely.

represents a 3.2 fold increase in intensity.
8.6 would be 3.2 times stronger than 8.5 and on up. Theory is magnitude 12s are possible which would spawn a grand-canyon size fissure event. woohoo Our mother earth capable of quite a temper tantrum.
