last night, the venerable spaceman, told us that there were early warning systems in place since the sixties. like pearl harbour, and 911, these warnings were ignored.
hawaii's eartquake monitor said the quake was an 8 on the scale. from eight to nine, on the richter scale is a THOUSANDFOLD increase in magnitude. could they have made such a glaring mistake with a reading? unlikely.
why didn't hawaii warn anyone? because they didn't have the phone number, is the official excuse.
the scientists of indonesia had an emergency meeting soon after the quake hit, some three HOURS before the waves arrived. they decided NOT to warn the populace, because, 'it might hurt the tourism industry' if they called for evacuation and a tidal wave DIDN'T hit.
in each country, the agencies which monitor these things came up with some lameduck excuse NOT TO WARN ANYONE.
tsunami warning systems are apparently very simple. it is a bouy. if the bouy goes up too high, that means there are some big ass waves a-comin'.
NWO elite guy, helmut cole, however, is one guy who was airlifted out of the area after the quake hit, but before the waves arrived.
this is all from memory. research along these lines will bear the strange fruit of the NWO depopulation tree.
spaceman also speculates that scalar weapons were used to trigger the quake.
the numbers of dead keep rising. i've heard the drudge report say as many as FOUR HUNDRED THOUSAND!.

911 was a terrorist attack, not a natural disaster.

In January I read about and looked at pictures of deep sea creatures that live too deep to be studied being found scattered throughout the wreckage of the tsunami. I thought it was quite strange at the time that all these deep sea creatures would be washed in with a tsunami. Here is some of the pictures as I think it ties in with this theory.

As far as the tsunami goes, How many earthquakes have been in the US that were reported initially as one size, only to be changed later.

Just because the US has a warning system doesn't mean every country does, or that if they do it's manned 24/7 like it is here. Do you have any idea how LONG it would take to evacuate an area before a tsunami?
Oh and another thing about the warning? It was 6am the day after a holiday when the quake happened.

"United States State Department officials today acknowledged that US scientists predicted a tsunami could form after the December 26 earthquake, but claimed that they failed to issue a warning because such waves are rare in the Indian Ocean."

They gambled and lost.
Here is a link for you to look at that shows they had no idea the tsunami was coming, and how the magnitude changed with different warnings. Oh, and about that question I raised earlier, I know of at least three earthquakes in California and Japan that were initially reported smaller, then revised later.
f**k the tourist what about your own people living in you country

I doubt that at all to be honest. See the wave only becomes a hazardous force as it approachs the shallows of the coast. There were divers of indonesia that pretty much had the thing roll straight through them. They were in a pack not far from land then, voooooooom, all of a sudden alone in different areas ranging about a kilometer. They all survived, surfaced and eventually found each other and regrouped. Fair story for the grandchildren!
