Dozens Of Large Earthquakes Strike As Speculation Mounts That Japans Southern Island May SplitBy Michael Snyder Because the Ecuador earthquake was bigger, it is getting most of the headlines at the moment, but the truth is that what is going on in Japan is potentially far more dangerous. Over the past week, Japans southern Island of Kyushu has been rocked by a series of devastating quakes, including two major ones in less than 48 hours. The following comes fromthe Guardian A second major earthquake in less than two days has shaken Japans southern island of Kyushu, with at least 34 people thought to have been killed, about 1,500 injured and more feared buried after building collapses and landslides. The 7.3 magnitude earthquake struck at about 1.30am on Saturday, waking people across the island including the thousands already in crisis centres. It caused widespread damage, with several landslides and a village evacuated over fears a dam might burst. The mainstream media in the United States is using the term landslides to describe what has happened all over Kyushu, but the truth is that in many instances it would be far more accurate to say that giant cracks or vast chasms have formed. The geography of Japans southern island has been fundamentally transformed, and this is beginning to cause huge concerns. Here is more fromthe Guardian Another landslide hit a road, collapsing a house that fell down a ravine. In another part of the village, houses were left hanging precariously at the edge of a huge hole. I want to show you a map which comes directly from the U.S. Geological Survey. This map shows all of the earthquakes of magnitude 2.5 or greater that have hit Japans southern island over the past week. As you look at this map, do you see a pattern? The dozens of earthquakes that have hit Japans southern island over the past week appear to form something of a straight line that divides the island in two. Many are now speculating that geological forces are beginning to tear Kyushu in half, and if that is true, the earthquake activity that we have seen in Japan so far is probably just the tip of the iceberg. We could potentially be talking about an event that could ultimately have far more of an impact on Japan than the tsunami of 2011. By the time it is all said and done, entire cities could be wiped off the map and millions upon millions of Japanese citizens could be displaced. Already, the seismic activity that has rocked Kyushu is having quite an impacton the Japanese economy Earlier today Toyota was one of many Japanese companies to announce that it will suspend most car production across Japan as a result of critical supply chain disruptions caused by the recent destructive earthquake and numerous aftershocks. All of the major assembly lines will be shut down across its four directly-run plants, and Toyota will be halting production in stages at other group companies as well. According to the Nikkei Asian Review, most of the Toyota group in Japan will be effectively shut down through at least the end of this upcoming week, with a production loss of as many as 50,000 vehicles, including brands such as Prius, Lexus, and Land Cruiser. Our planet resembles something of a giant cracked egg, and the enormous tectonic plates that we are all living on are constantly in motion. So if Japans southern island is in the process of slowly splitting in half, that shouldnt exactly be a surprise. After all, scientists assure us that Los Angeles and San Francisco will be directly next to one another someday. And it isnt just Japan that we need to be concerned about. All along the Ring of Fire, seismic activity is increasing, and this has many of the experts completely puzzled. The following comes from an excellent pieceby Alvin Conway This has continued to baffle many of the worlds leading geologists, who still attest the rise in the number of large earthquakes is merely a random natural occurrence. For instance, the number of large earthquakes doubled in 2014. However, heres what scientists had to say about it: If you think there have been more earthquakes than usual this year, youre right. A new study finds there were more than twice as many big earthquakes in the first quarter of 2014 as compared with the average since 1979. We have recently experienced a period that has had one of the highest rates of great earthquakes ever recorded, said lead study author Tom Parsons, a research geophysicist with the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) in Menlo Park, California. If you are familiar with my work, then you already know that I believe that we have entered a period of time during which we will see seismic activity on a scale that none of us have ever experienced before. This great shaking will combine with other factors such as financial collapse, geopolitical instability and civil unrest to produce what many have described as a perfect storm. Life as we know it is in the process of fundamentally changing, and right now we are only in the very early chapters of this change. Unfortunately, most people are ignoring the warnings and will continue to ignore them until it is far too late.

The warrior stands forth in the strength of his God- given heritage, scorning the shadow symbols, determined to know only the real; he foregoes all the sensuous and seeming and becomes the true celibate. He sees Are you retarded? Thank you. The very fact that there is a symbol proves there is a reality. The fact of a shadow proves there must be a substance. No names of any scientists or agencies citedthis is just a bunch of quack pseudoscientific babble to scare stupid people This is plate tectonics and nothing out of the norm historically at all. Yes there were. Did you even read the article you ridiculous little man? Remove that avatar you arent fit to use it. Unfortunately, most people are ignoring the warnings and will continue to ignore them until it is far too late. Pretty much sums up the majority of todays society. Some kid must be playing with his earthquake machinedarpa darling stop shaking Japan. Is it possible that the Earths magma is like ocean water, pulled by (as of yet) unknown Universal forces? Or possibly the weight of the increasing ocean waters from the melting ice packs around the world is increasing the strain on the techtonic plates? no, its CERN. Its a holographic universe. When tampering with things at the quantum level it is effecting everything in the universe. Think about that. reaperishere.weebly top left video Ice packs growing not melting. So say some of the brains. its happaned all over the world guys ! the earthquakes , theyre everywhere ! bulgaria got hit by a 4.2 magnitude, turkey too , i think there was 1 more country in europe and lets not forget about ecuador ! speculation should be mounting about CERN. reaperishere.weebly top left video. Yay!! I cant wait to see what will destroy the West, volcanoes or nuclear missiles anything is better than the slow march to extinction in a huge leftist feminist open-air deathcamp.. I hope it is soon too I cant wait!! But what an an ordinary person do to moderate the terrible effects of such seismic activity? There are people that are trying to make a difference, sorry youre not one of them.
