BP Oil Spill: NASA Report Confirms Toxic Dispersants DID Rain Down on Gulf Coast

03/10/2011 Leave a comment

“Remember how all the conspiracy nuts claimed the chemicals BP was dumping in the water might actually evaporate into the air and then rain down on the Gulf States, poisoning land, water, and of course, people?

And remember how the government officials said, ‘No, no, no! That could NEVER happen. Not to worry! … But we’re not going to let scientists look at the data we’ve collected…’

And how people kept turning up with what looked like chemical sickness, even though it was (of course) impossible?

It wasn’t impossible. A NASA scientist has started releasing some of that hitherto unavailable data. And it’s not pretty.”  Read more.

Major Solar Flare Erupts, May Make Auroras Visible in Northern U.S.

03/10/2011 Leave a comment

“The sun unleashed another major solar flare Wednesday, a solar storm so powerful it could spawn dazzling northern lights displays that could be visible from even New York City.

The solar flare erupted at 6:23 p.m. EST (2323 GMT), letting loose a wave of charged particles that is aimed straight at Earth and should arrive in the next few days.

When it does, it could supercharge the Earth’s aurora borealis — also known as the Northern Lights — when the particles interact with the planet’s magnetic field and atmosphere. [Photos: Dazzling Auroras Seen by Northern Observers]

‘This flare could make the Northern Lights visible as far south as Washington State, central Idaho, northern Wyoming, the Dakotas and east to Chicago, Detroit, NYC and Boston,’ explains SPACE.com’s skywatching columnist Joe Rao. ‘Of course, we have to hope that the subatomic particles emitted by the flare arrive at the Earth’s vicinity during the nighttime hours and of course, that skies are clear!'”  Read more.

Hawaii’s Kilauea Volcano Erupts With Greater Fury

03/10/2011 Leave a comment

“The frequently restive Kilauea volcano on the island of Hawaii spewed a plume of lava 160 feet (50 metres) tall on Wednesday, more than twice as high as molten rock shot into the sky when eruptions flared anew on Saturday.

As eruptions continued at two spots, seismic activity grew more vigorous and poisonous sulphur dioxide gas emissions peaked at 10,000 tons a day, over 30 times last weekend’s levels, before dropping off again by more than half, according to scientists at the U.S. Geological Survey.

No injuries or damage to residential property have been reported since Kilauea roared back to life on Saturday.”  Read more.

Egyptian Islamist Wishes to ‘See Israel Wiped Off the Map’

03/09/2011 Leave a comment

Psalms 83:2-4, “See how your enemies are astir, how your foes rear their heads. With cunning they conspire against your people; they plot against those you cherish. ‘Come,’ they say, ‘let us destroy them as a nation, that the name of Israel be remembered no more.'”

“A prominent member of Egypt’s Muslim Brotherhood this week became the first member of the Islamist group to visit Iran, where he praised Tehran’s leadership and denounced Israel.

The New York Post reported that Kamal El Helbawy – a London-based Islamic scholar and Brotherhood representative widely known as the movement’s face in the West – told his hosts he wished to see Egypt become, like Iran, ‘a true Islamic state.’

‘Egypt and the world of Islam as a whole need leaders like President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad,’ he said, and ‘should join a new world order with Iran and Venezuela, plus Hezbollah and Hamas to chase away the Americans.

‘Every night when I go to bed, I pray to wake up the next day to see Israel is wiped off the map,’ the Brotherhood leader reportedly said.

Last month, during protests to oust Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak, Helbawy told Iran’s Al-Alam television network, ‘The only foreign intervention in this revolution is that of Israel. They destroyed the gas pipeline, so that the revolutionaries would be accused of using explosives. No one would accept a destructive Iranian role in Egypt, or elsewhere. We think highly of a country whose president is important, courageous and has a vision.'”  Read more.

Islamic Mob Burns Down Church in Egypt – Imam Tells Villagers to “KILL ALL THE CHRISTIANS”

03/09/2011 Leave a comment

John 16:2-3, “… a time is coming when anyone who kills you will think he is offering a service to God. And these things they will do to you because they have not known the Father nor Me.”

“CAIRO, March 8 (CDN) — A Muslim mob in a village south of Cairo last weekend attacked a church building and burned it down, almost killing the parish priest after an imam issued a call to ‘Kill all the Christians,’ according to local sources.

The attack started on Friday evening (March 4) in the village of Sool, located in the city of Helwan 35 kilometers (22 miles) from Cairo, and lasted through most of Saturday. A local imam, Sheik Ahmed Abu Al-Dahab, issued the call during Friday afternoon prayers, telling area Muslims to kill the Christians because they had “no right” to live in the village. The attack started several hours later.

The Rev. Hoshea Abd Al-Missieh, a parish priest who narrowly escaped death in the fire, said the clamor of the church being torn apart sounded like ‘hatred.’

‘I was in the attack, but I can’t describe it,’ he said. ‘The sound of the church being destroyed that I heard – I can’t describe it, how horrible it was.'”  Read more.

North Korea Nears Completion of Electromagnetic Pulse Bomb

03/09/2011 Leave a comment

“North Korea appears to be protesting the joint U.S. and South Korean military maneuvers by jamming Global Positioning Devices in the south, which is a nuisance for cell phone and computers users — but is a hint of the looming menace for the military.

Since March 4, Pyongyang has been trying to disrupt GPS receivers critical to South Korean military communications apparently in protest of the ongoing joint military training exercises between South Korean and U.S. forces. Strong jamming signals were sent intermittently every five to 10 minutes.

The scope of the damage has been minimal, putting some mobile phones and certain military equipment that use GPS signals on the fritz.

Large metropolitan areas including parts of Seoul, Incheon and Paju have been affected by the jamming, but ‘the situation is getting wrapped up, no severe damage has been reported for the last two days,’ Kyoungwoo Lee, deputy director of Korea Communications Commission, said.

The jamming, however, has raised questions about whether the Korean peninsula is bracing for new electronic warfare.”  Read more.
