Damn, so frustrating... They just had a 5 minute segment on MSNBC about numerous Arabic news papers and broadcasts claiming that the earthquake causing the tsunami was triggered by US, Israeli and Indian nuclear tests in the Indian ocean. My tin foil hat is at the cleaners, so I never saw this coming. Wish i had some links to share

I heard some people saying this the day after it happened. I didn't and don't believe it, espcially when I consider the source. But could a nuclear test above a fault line trigger an erathquake?

I also saw some of these stories a couple days after the tsunami. I didn't really invest any time into them.

Consider the theory of detonating an atomic bomb on either Yellowstone National Park (where there's the largest volcano in the US) and/or detonating it off the west coast of Africa. If Yellowstone was hit, the entire west coast and middle America would be non-existent. If the bomb went off near Africa, the entire eastern US seaboard would be flooded, making Phuket Island look like a burp.

Corrected. Sorry, it's been a long day.

Hmmm...I wonder is there any concrete evidence that their were tests that day? If so, I guess the possibiliy can't be 100% discounted.

Yellowstone not Yosemite, shit though Yosemite could have been a volcano eons ago though now that i think of it.

The thing is if you were to scientifically find a fault where its like a load bearer you could cause a extra amount of stress causeing other fault lines to rupture and cause more problems. At least thats what some stupid scientist said about LA back in 93 when some people thought it could have been a terrorist attack.

Well we do know that undersea atomic tests off the coast of Japan trigger the awakening of a mutated atomic beast that ravaged Toyko so anything is possible.

Perhaps Arabic countries should start donating more money. Apparantly Saudi Arabia are plenty of the other oil rich nations offered a pathetic £5 million each.

I wonder if the arabic news papers and broadcasters ever get sick of their own babbling?

Considering that half of our country still believes Saddam was behind 9-11 maybe we shouldn't be so quick to laugh at the Arab countries and their craziness. We have plenty to go around here at home.

Typical Arab media bullshit. It's so sad because the population suffers from only hearing this news to keep them preoccupied with Western hate. When they should be trying to get rid of the dictatorships in each of their countries. But there's not much they can do, governments their enjoy filling the populations minds with bullshit. Always keep them preoccupied with irrelevant stuff so you can keep them off your back. And the small donations being made is not a surprise. Arab nations never really care for any other nation, and not even much for their own population.

Yeah I heard about it too. There's a thin red line between conspiracy theorists and idiocy theorists. I think the people who started that rumor have just crossed that line. I mean, man, if you're going to say something so extreme* give us some proof to support it.

*By extreme I mean f'cking retarded

Lol, that's funny. I was actually thinking about that this morning about how maybe a trident submarine went nuclear and caused a 9.0 earthquake.

according to MM's F911... bush and arabs are buddies.

However I agree with the zealots on the evil nature of Usononians.

ITS EXACTLY THE SORT OF THING THEY WOULD PLAN TO WIPE OUT A WHOLE BUNCH OF BACKWARDS PEOPLE LIVING/SWIMMING/TANNING

*****************

did you guys miss the reports saying that because cities like Phuket promote drug/tanning/sunbathing/caucasian flounching around half nude/hedonism that the bloody tsunami is GOD'S WORK to punish the heathen.

There are Bin laden fans in Indonesia who were chanting in the streets when they heard planes flew into the WTC. They even showed a pic of a man wearing a UBL shirt helping some of the victems form the tsunami. It's amazing we help these people.

No, it isn't. The entire world is helping "these people". Doesn't matter that particular people hate the West.

One of my dad's patients told him the other day that this tsunami was God's way of punishing "those people" in Indonesia and other muslim countries. No one country has a monopoly on idiocy.

I wish people could stop seeing color, nationality, religion, etc. That is probably too much to ask though.

I've heard "US caused the tsunami", "It happened on Christmas, god is killing heathens" and also, "US knew it was happening and didn't warn anyone", as if no other nation or anyone with internet access didn't know the earthquake happeend. Everyone's an idiot, deal with it.

Like someone said, for every moron who believes Saddam had something to do with 9/11, there's another idiot that believes the US caused the tsunami. Completely different idiots think we didn't land on the moon, while a handful of morons believe the earth is still flat. Completely other fart-knockers think all Canadians live in igloos, while other dumbfucks think killing people in the most cowardly fashions can make them heroes if they did it 'in the name of god'.

Same potheads that say weed doesn't hurt you in any way because "some other pothead told them there's a study somewhere", different PETA bitches who believe KFC makes genetically altered super chickens without heads and can't use the word "chicken" in their name cause it's not really chicken, despite the fact the word 'chicken' is in their menu about a billion times. Dumbass zombie movie writers who keep pushing the myth that your hair and nails grow after you die, and the fact that the fricken Dental association makes a commercial talking about how pop corrodes your teeth, even though that's been proven to not be true. Lochness. Bigfoot. El Chubafuckingcabra!!!

Bullshit is out there folks. It's everywhere. We can't escape it. Grin, bear it, and hope nothing bad comes of it.

The last four years have been frustrating, and we're due for another four of those. This is just a drop in the bucket, as some others have implied. Welcome, have a seat...the Advil is on your left.

5 mil from Saudi is way too little. As for other arabic countries donating, its not really a good suggestin, most of the countires have to sort out complaications and struggles in their countries.

I dont know how many of you know this, but there is this island somewhere near America that has a volcano on it. If that volcano erups. It will send a huge chunk of land into the sea. If that happens. A tsunami will head for New York and destroy it. I will try and find a source for this.

Also, did Tazznum reply to herself :lol

A) You're an idiot. There are more volcanoes on the Pacific coast of America than the Atlantic. You know, that whole "Ring of Fire" thing?

B) Herself. So, uh, see Part A.

Sorry tazznum:p

anyway, here is a link to my story above.

As for boogie, you can just shut up, yes, I am aware that there are more volcanoes on the pacific coast, but I am not too sure if they all have the same effect as the volcano I mentioned.
