6.4 magnitude #earthquake hits southern Turkey
Don't remember who said it, it was a long time ago when I heard that one of the side effects of global warming is the increase of the risk for earth quakes that will be stronger and more frequent. We were all laughing back then, still not convinced since I have not read much about it from reliable sources, but these latest earthquakes in #Turkey and #Syria makes me wonder!
#Earthquake hit Syria 2 weeks ago, w days ago ISIS used machine guns to slaughter 70 Syrians and last night Israeli missiles hit residental building in Damascus.
Do you think #EU and #US going to wave Syrian flag and say "today we are all Syrians"?
How about condemning the state sponsor terrorism by #Israel?
Or maybe stop occupation of #Syria and prevent them to eradict #ISIS?
Nah, that's too much to ask!
Israel just bombed Syria, hitting a residential area in Damascus. 15 people killed.
Can’t leave people in peace even in the aftermath of an #earthquake + #sanctions.
Of course mainstream media saying "Israel hit Iranian targets in #Syria"

THEY DON'T WANT YOU TO KNOW THE #TRUTH IN #SYRIA, IT'S EVEN WORSE THAN YOU CAN IMAGIN
"The earthquake in Syria has totally destroyed parts of the country. Entire city blocks reduced to rubble. But western sanctions have dealt an even great blow to this beautiful country. Syrian journalist Kevork Almassian joins Redacted host Clayton …

#Iran and its proxies may be preparing for a major effort with #military elements in northern #Syria. Senior officers from the IRGC Quds Force, its Iraqi proxies, the #Assad regime, and possibly Russian forces have participated in a flurry of meetings throughout Syria in recent days. These meetings are noteworthy given their frequency and the seniority of their participants. Local media has framed many but not all of these meetings as ostensibly related to #earthquake relief. That explanation is improbable considering that most participants lead or represent military and paramilitary groups but do not include the officials who would normally be involved in delivering humanitarian assistance and because of reports that Iran is moving fighters and weapons in ostensibly humanitarian convoys.
- February 8: IRGC Quds Force Commander Brigadier General Esmail Ghaani and senior IRGC officer Brigadier General Mohammad Reza Zahedi traveled to Aleppo, Syria.
- February 9: The commander of Russian forces in Syria, Colonel General Andrey Serdyukov, traveled to Aleppo and may have met with Ghaani and other Iranian officers.
- February 10: Syrian President Bashar al Assad traveled to Aleppo and met with Iraqi proxy leader Abu Fadak al Mohammedawi. Mohammedawi is currently the chief of staff of the Popular Mobilization Forces and was previously the secretary general of Iraqi proxy Kataib Hezbollah.
- February 12: Ghaani met with Latakia Provincial Governor Amer Ismail Hilal. Officials from Lebanese Hezbollah may have accompanied Ghaani.
- February 13: Ghaani and Mohammedawi met with Assad at the Aleppo International Airport.
- February 16: Assad met with chairman of the Popular Mobilization Forces Falih al Fayyadh in Damascus.
These meetings notably did not include representatives of the Syrian or Iranian foreign ministries or of the organizations normally responsible for emergency responses, healthcare, finances, or economic activities.

7.8 #earthquake in Central #Turkey: #News and #Updates
This 32 minute video describes not only the horror of the earthquake in Turkey and #Syria, but #how the #deliberate #withholding of #aid by various powers caused a massive increase in the death toll. Aid only arrived after 3 days. The first 10 minutes describes the deliberate withholding of aid.
It then goes on to explore the theory that #HAARP was used to #create / #amplify the earthquake.
Unconfirmed: The #US #Treasury has issued a six-month #sanctions exemption for transactions to provide disaster relief to #Syria after the #earthquakes on Monday.
Isn't it nice of them? They are such humanitarian people.
Head of Iranian's geological society warns about the danger of a big earthquake hitting Tehran.
It's possible that the city may be hit by an earthquake similar or even stronger than the one that devastated Turkey and Syria.
Such earthquake may cause death in levels never seen before. The 12 million Inhabitant city packs any kind of building standard and maybe leveled to the ground by a big #earthquake, with close to half a million in casualties.

and of course a different narrative about the #ukraine
A dozen #UNHCR trucks filled with 2,000 emergency relief items have arrived in northwest #Syria. This is much-needed support, in addition to what has been distributed by partners since the devastating earthquakes struck on Monday.

United Nations estimate that the number of people killed by last week's #earthquakes may be as high as 55000
Turkish government is trying to downplay the magnitude of the #catastrophe and it's failure to provide food and shelter to survivors of it.
Reports of desperate looting of food shops and brutal crackdown by the police is being suppressed by #Erdogan's #censorship.
A list of organizations providing support in northwest Syria is here. Those wanting to help the people of #Syria should work through them. Assad and his regime cannot possibly be relied upon to help the very people they have been trying to exterminate for more than a decade. Only the good people of the world can.

According to the Iranian news agency IRNA, #Iran on Tuesday formally unveiled the world's first subterranean airbase called "Eagle 44," which can house fighter jets and long-range cruise missiles. Top military officials from Iran, including Army Commander Major General Abrolrahim Mousavi and Chief of Staff of the Armed Forces Major General Mohammad Bagheri, reportedly attended an inaugural ceremony. Iranian officials emphasized how the airbase will help their military undertake a variety of missions more effectively while also adopting a tough stance toward their main foe, #Israel.
