Major Earthquake Swarm off Yemen, Trouble??
Modern Survival Blog/beforeitsnews.com ^ | Nov. 15, 2010 | Reporter Ken

There has been a tremendous number of earthquakes that began early during 14-Nov, 0630 UTC, and are ongoing at this moment.

More than 30 moderate earthquakes ranging from magnitude 4.5 to 5.4 have rattled under the sea where the Gulf of Aden and the Red Sea meet at a point off of Yemen.

The depths have been mostly around 10 km, with a few deeper.

A closer look reveals something that appears highly unusual. That is, so far at least 20 of the earthquakes have been at a depth of exactly 10.0 km. I mean, exactly. What are the odds of that, spread across the affected region?

This earthquake swarm is occurring right now, and is happening right in the middle of major oil and freight transit sea lanes, the busiest in the world.

This is the location of a major oil shipping route. Speculation as to what is causing the quakes is rampant. Possibilities include: volcanic action to further separation of a rift between the African and Asian continents.

HAARP!

We are basically at war with countries on either side of that strait.

It’s either the gulf of Aden or the Straits of Hormuz, but not both. They are about a thousand miles apart.

Just so long as it isn’t in New York harbor.

I just checked, there is a range of 4 to 5 strength at depths 7-11km

Isn’t there either a major fault or a plate edge that runs down the middle of the Red Sea and up through the Holy Land?

Paricutin volcano, but in the already most dangerous part of the world? How will the mullahs explain this if it turns out to be the explanation?

Worthless speculation but fun.

The Marines were there doing some survival training the other day. Must have been them.

That was my first thought. I use to think the US bases in the Middle East would be used to help Israel now I believe that Barack the Muslim will order the US military to fight against Israel.

THE GULF OF ADEN IS NOT THE STRAIGHTS OF HORMUZ.
