Tianjin explosion carried out by Pentagon Rods from God space weapon

[zorgon]

Quite true..

A forest left to burn on its own, the fire sweeps through quickly and big trees get scorched but do not die... and the first rain after a fire the forest exploded in fresh green

But I thought we have been doing controlled burns for that reason..

Or was that in another time line I was in?

Seems they Talk the Talk...

Controlled Burning

History
The historic suppression of fire has resulted in a lack of periodic, natural fire in our forest. The absence of these low intensity fires has increased the risk of large fire events and has negatively impacted the health of our forests. As part of an effort to use fire as a resource management tool, the Daniel Boone National Forest is reviewing existing resource management and fire management plans to develop an integrated fire planning strategy.
Controlled fires are used on public lands in order to improve forest health, and reduce large wildfires. Controlled fire is used only under appropriate conditions and at appropriate sites. The Forest Service has identified areas where controlled fire can be used as a management tool.
Historic Role of Fire:
Fire plays an important and critical role in influencing vegetation and the lifecycles of trees and plant communities. Many species are dependent on fire.
The historic suppression of fire has resulted in a lack of periodic, natural fire in our forest. The absence of periodic, low intensity fires have increased the risk of large fire events and has negatively impacted the health of our forests.
Due to our successful prevention and suppression efforts, fire patterns were markedly altered during the past century. In the absence of fire, massive insect and disease epidemics and various other forest health problems have proliferated.
Need for Controlled Burning:
Controlled burning will help the Forest Service achieve improved forest and rangeland health and will help reduce the threat of large fire events.
Controlled burning allows the Forest Service to control the effects of fire, its location and intensity.
Controlled burning can be managed or controlled to reduce the intensity and magnitude of bigger wildfires by reducing the accumulation of flammable fuels.
Wildfires threaten public safety, impair forest and ecosystem health, and degrade air quality.
Wildfires can pose serious threats to public health and safety, as well as to air quality. Because the fires are uncontrolled, they pose significant threats to the safety of firefighters and general public and destroy property. The intense or extended periods of smoke associated with uncontrolled fires can also cause serious health problems and significantly decrease visibility. Controlled burning is used to minimize the emissions and adverse impacts of smoke on public health and the environment.

There's absolutely NO Facts whatsoever that support what's been presented here at all. Yes a massive explosion took place in China it may be a direct result of something China themselves were doing or an accident of some nature. China are Communists by nature everything's a secret. This does not mean its a conspiracy and The US used a Space Weapon to send a message.

I certainly agree, it just is odd that there have been so many explosions lately and it starts to look like someones secret war. I don't mean just now I mean for a while now and maybe accelerating to bigger stuff.

Could some of these sites have been hiding other things worth hitting? I was just watching the history of the first self sustained nuclear reaction test which was done in the middle of Chicago under the football stadium in 42, I know there are secrets all around us.

Most people don't know that there are near 4,000 oil wells hiding in buildings in LA. So it is not out of the question something more then accidents is going on.

Even the trains are odd,what is with all the derails and explosions? They usually involve something explosive or dangerous fumes. It could all be accidents but why so many are companies getting more lax and careless?

Two tanker trains full of crude oil have derailed and burst into flames in the last few days, one in West Virginia and one in Ontario. They're the most recent examples of a phenomenon that's increasingly common as fracking for oil becomes a top American pastime.

I have been saying for the past three years that the American economy is in big trouble because the US dollar is overly divested with the Chinese economy and now the Chinese look as though they want to collect some of the American debt that is owed to them.

They have taken the majority of the global manufacturing jobs away from the Western countries and have America enslaved in debt owed to them.

They are purchasing gold in enormous numbers and have recently been playing game in devaluing their dollar. America just may have well sent a shot across their bow with a Space Age Energy Weapon as we approach Financial Chaos in North America in the coming months.

A week has passed and still the reports are sketchy as to the cause of the disaster. My brief analysis of what little evidence is available shows that none of the substances mentioned in reports could have been the cause of the massive explosion and crater it left.

It seems that what really happened is being covered up with mentions of substances that could not have caused such destruction.

by Mike Adams, the Health

(NaturalNews) After publishing an article last week which explained that dissidents in China believe Tianjin was hit by a "Rod of God" secret space weapon from the Pentagon, I've looked more closely at the physics and telemetry control required to place such a weapon on target.

Some observers have come to the conclusion that the complexity of such a weapon system is too high for it to be a reality. They've cited several reasons for their skepticism, including the difficulty of overcoming orbital velocity, atmospheric re-entry problems, flight telemetry and so on. Some have also questioned whether the kinetic energy of such an object would be large enough to make any sort of meaningful impact on a ground-based target.

However, after analyzing the capabilities already found in today's precision-guided munitions — such as Raytheon's Excalibur guided artillery projectile, I've come to the conclusion that today's weapons technology is more than sufficient to build and deploy a functioning "Rod of God" orbital kinetic weapon platform.
[...]

Back to the Rod of God, the greater question here, however, is whether the rod can survive the atmospheric re-entry speed that's necessary to result in it striking the ground at 4km/s.

In other words, if V1 is the velocity of entry into the atmosphere, then the equation we are pondering is:

4km/s = V1 – B1?V1 = velocity upon entering the atmosphere?B1 = velocity reduction caused by braking in the atmosphere.

The real question here is: Can a "Rod from God" weapon survive V1? Or will it "burn up" from friction with the atmosphere? We can't know the answer to this, and the Pentagon isn't telling. But we can guess that the space weapons industry is at least two decades ahead of what they're telling the public.

Delivering 4 tons of TNT equivalent kinetic energy onto the target

Here's the math of the kinetic energy delivered to the target:

At 4km/s upon impact, a mass of, say, 2000kg (a two-ton rod) would deliver:
Kinetic Energy (Joules) = 0.5 x 2000 x (4000 ^ 2)

Answer = 16,000,000,000 Joules or 16 billion Joules; or stated as 16 x 10^9.

The atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima unleashed approximately 64 TJ (terajoules), or approximately 4,000 times the kinetic energy of our Rod of God weapon.

Because one ton of TNT is equivalent to 4.184 × 10^9 joule (J), if our exotic rod weapon unleashes 16 x 10^9, then it delivers the energy of four tons of TNT onto the target.

Is four tons of TNT useful as a tactical weapon? If you can deliver it on target from space, it certainly is!

The first Tianjin explosion was reported as 3 tons of TNT equivalent.

Interestingly, this is right in line with the reports from Tianjin, China, where two explosions took place. It was widely reported in the media that the first explosion represented about 3 tons of TNT, setting off a secondary explosion that reached about 21 tons of TNT.

From CNBC.com:

The second blast was equal to about 21 tons of TNT exploding, while the first was the equivalent of about 3 tons of TNT, according to numerous reports.

In other words, a "Rod of God" weapon could have conceivably achieved a 3-ton TNT equivalent, and if delivered directly on target, it could have easily set off the secondary chemical explosion.

How could the Rod of God reach targets that aren't directly underneath it?

Those who are assuming the Rod of God orbital weapons platform must drop the rods STRAIGHT down are making a tremendous error. No such limitation exists in space. There's no reason why the launch platform can't rotate before launching the rod on a desired trajectory, and there's no reason why a rod can't have a small, detachable thruster motor that works in space (yet detaches before atmospheric re-entry).

The initial trajectory angle of the Rod of God upon launch could allow it to reach almost any land-based target on the planet below. A relatively small thrust charge ignited after launch could drive the trajectory in any direction in space. This is especially the case if the launch platform is orbiting far from the planet, allowing more time for launch vectors to alter the final arrival destination below.

Once the rod reaches atmosphere, small changes in control surfaces could easily glide the rod to within 2 meters of any intended target on impact, using the exact same technology that already exists in precision munitions on Earth (tiny adjustable surfaces near the tail).

In all, these three innovations would allow a space-based Rod of God weapon to hit ANY target on planet Earth:

1) The ability to rotate the platform to launch the rods at varying angles relative to the planet.

2) The ability to add thrust to the rod itself through a small, one-time rocket motor.

3) The ability to guide the rod using existing precision munitions technology that alters control surfaces in the atmosphere to deliver munitions on target.
[...]

Conclusion: The Rod of God concept seems feasible, but we can't know the Pentagon's secrets to confirm it.

Here, I've shown that the kinetic energy delivered by a "Rod of God" weapon could reasonably match the first explosion observed in TianJin. I've also explained why the orbital velocity and atmospheric re-entry objections are not show-stoppers.

The biggest question, in my opinion, is whether a rod can survive the extremely high forces of friction with the atmosphere as it plummets toward its target at very high velocities (Mach 12, for example). This is primarily a materials question, and there's no way we can know for sure what sort of exotic materials the Pentagon has developed.

One thing we can know with 100% certainty, however, is that the Pentagon doesn't publicly disclose its space weapons secrets. If it does possess a Rod of God space weapon, it sure isn't going to announce it to anyone. Especially given how amazingly useful such a weapon would be for the stealth striking of enemy targets anywhere on the planet.

Remember: if this weapon exists, it puts a weapon on target while producing no apparent launch signature. This is, in every way, a stealth weapon that no one can stop once it's launched. You wouldn't even be able to see it approaching, either.

Dropping through the atmosphere at Mach 12, it would strike the target like a bolt from the heavens, causing enormous destruction and leaving quite a large crater in the ground, just like we saw at Tianjin.

An article published in the June 2015 issue of Time Magazine goes into great detail describing an array of science-fiction-like technologies which would likely make their debut. U.S. and Chinese warships battle at sea, firing everything from cannons to cruise missiles to lasers.

In the Pacific, the U.S. and a newly powerful and assertive China are engaged in a massive arms race. China built more warships and warplanes than any other nation during the last several years, while the Pentagon just announced a strategy to "offset" it with a new generation of high-tech weapons.

Indeed, it's likely China's alleged recent hack of federal records at the Office of Personnel Management was not about cyber crime, but a classic case of what is known as "preparing the battlefield," gaining access to government databases and personal records just in case, has already begun. China's military build up is already on pace to match the U.S. by 2020, if it hasn't already.

The lifeblood of military communications and control now runs through space, meaning we'd see humankind's first battles for the heavens. Similarly, we'd learn "cyber war" is far more than stealing Social Security Numbers or e-mail from gossipy Hollywood executives, but the takedown of the modern military nervous system and Stuxnet-style digital weapons...

He died

[zorgon]

Yeah that was my thought too... that shock wave came in fast

My concern though is whether or not this is a forth explosion or film from another angle. All I see so far is cloned story, nothing official

[ArMaP]

This last one looks smaller, as the time it takes for the sound to reach the camera is too short, so the camera was very close to the explosion, which means the explosion was not as big as it looks at first.

Censored: A Young Survivor Decries Handling of Tianjin Explosion | Foreign Policy

10 September 2015

"The powers that be seem more interested in hushing everyone up": One Censored Account of a Tianjin Explosion Survivor

On August. 12, a great fireball shot into the sky in the large and prosperous port city of Tianjin, in northeastern China.

A privately-run warehouse complex containing dangerous chemicals in concentrations far exceeding the lawful allowance had exploded in the district of Binhai, a disaster that, according to Chinese state media, claimed over 160 lives and injured hundreds of others.

But many Chinese do not trust the state media reports, which have been closely controlled. Meanwhile, authorities have vigorously censored social media, which initially bustled with first-hand accounts of the blast's immediate aftermath. Questions about why the company operating the warehouse was allowed to flaunt regulations remain unanswered.

On Sept. 7, an anonymous user of social media platform Weibo posted what claims to be a first-hand account of the explosion, from a home merely blocks away. The author has not responded to a Weibo message seeking comment, and Foreign Policy has not been able to verify the account's particulars. But the narrative caused much discussion in Chinese social media, with over 80,000 shares, before it was deleted. The detailed essay depicts robust and generous grassroots citizen response in the wake of the explosion, while sharply criticizing the local government's treatment of survivors and their families. In an indication at the sensitivity surrounding the Tianjin disaster, the most popular comments urge the writer, who says she will enroll at a U.S. college, to leave China quickly — and, perhaps, stay away. Below, FP translates, with edits for length and clarity.

***

It's been almost a month since the explosion in Tianjin, and after sustaining injuries in the blast, I'm finally out of the hospital. Although I'm weaker than before, and my wounds are still healing, I'm finally able to return to something like a normal life — if this very altered existence can still be called normal.

I'm a Tianjin native, and except for three years in a Beijing high school, I've lived my whole life in Tanggu [which has been absorbed into Binhai]. When the incident occurred, I was living in Vanke Harbor City — the closest area to the explosion. I'm from a middle class home. We own one apartment — we sold the other one so I could study abroad. My mother and father both work at a state-owned enterprise as low-level employees. I was supposed to enroll in Swarthmore College [in Pennsylvania] Aug. 20, but I've had to defer.

The incident occurred around 11:40 p.m. on Aug. 12. Only my mother joined me at home; my father had been sent to Shenzhen [a large city distant from Tianjin] for a long-term work assignment. She was asleep when it happened, and I was lying in bed chatting on Wechat with friends. My bed faces a large window directly, so I could see the sky clearly. I was typing on my phone when I suddenly saw the sky light up. I put my phone down and looked again. Then, in an instant, the whole sky became orange, followed right afterwards by the loudest, most frightening sound I'd ever heard in my life. My window was blown out into shards of glass flying toward me. I didn't see it clearly, because I'd turned on my side and used my hands and arms to cover my head.

After that, everything was instinct. I grabbed a nearby pillow and held it on top of me, in case there was an aftershock (which never came). Then, one more fierce exploding sound.

It felt a bit hot near my left shoulder, so I touched it with my hand and found blood everywhere. I heard my mother shouting at me to come out. I was already in shock, and my whole body was stiff, and I wasn't aware of how serious my injuries were. My mother had to come in, walking across the glass-covered floor, and pulled me out of bed into the hallway toward her room. I felt dizzy and cold. I looked down and the clothes on my left side were all red. As I lay across my mother's bed, she ran to turn off the electrical circuit — she thought we'd been hit by lightning.

Lying there on the bed, I felt blood streaming from my clavicle. It wouldn't stop. It suddenly dawned on me that if my aorta had been injured, I was done. I wasn't afraid, I just had a very clear and grim thought: I am going to die.
I called my mother back in; it sounded like a war outside. I told her I was hurt, and it might be my aorta. She was relatively calm, and lifted up my shirt to search for the wound. She found it, and pressed down, asking me if it hurt.

Truthfully, it didn't hurt at all.

After that, I lost it, I really lost it. I was comforting my mother, telling her it wasn't a big deal and to just keep pressing down on my wound; other times I cried and said I was too young to die, that I hadn't even made it to college. After a few minutes, my mom promptly decided to call for help. First, she wrapped my wound — we didn't have a first-aid kit, so she used a nearby pair of pants, and it took about ten minutes for her to get the angle right — then she picked up her cell phone.

Outside, the noises had gotten even scarier than the explosion. There were sirens everywhere, but they couldn't cover up the shrieks and howls outside. It was like the sound of hell.

When my mom ran back into the room, I noticed that her face and body were covered with blood. It sounds pathetic, but at the time, I was just thinking about having someone save me. Family members called then to see if we were okay, but they were too far away to come get us, and the call only lasted a few quick sentences. I tried calling 120 [an emergency number], and finally got through after about a dozen tries. But they said there were no ambulances left.
We were growing desperate. Our cell phone was almost out of power. My mom could have driven me to the hospital, but we were on the 14th floor; the elevator wasn't working; my mom wasn't strong enough to carry me down the stairs; and it wasn't clear if the car was in shape to drive. All we could do was use the phone.  Finally, my mom reached her sister; she and her husband headed out to find us.

They lived about a 10-minute drive away, but after the incident, traffic was crazy, and it took them about half an hour to arrive. It felt to my mother and me like the longest wait of our lives. She and I spent time talking about our family — do you and dad love me, that sort of thing — and found a bottle of rubbing alcohol to put on my wound, found a power charger for the phone, and gathered some essentials.

After half an hour, we couldn't wait any longer. She found me a pair of shoes and helped me head downstairs. My wound was a bit better but blood was still leaving my body, and I felt dizzy and weak from the blood loss.

My mom wanted to bring me all the way down to the first floor, but she wasn't strong enough. She had a hernia, and there's no way she could have carried me all that way on her back. So  I let her put me down on the stairs while she rested. I was still losing blood and on the verge of losing consciousness when I heard my mom calling out to my aunt and uncle (I hadn't heard them approaching). A building guard was with them, and he and my uncle carried me down about six flights. It must have been exhausting to carry me, who weighs about 110 pounds, all that way. I remember babbling an apology until I ran out of energy.

They brought me into the ER on a stretcher. There were bloodied people everywhere. My family eventually found an ER doctor, who finally put me on a temporary operating table. He quickly announced I had trauma to my chest cavity, but they could only perform basic sutures, and didn't even have any anesthetic left. With much effort, the doctor located a surgical kit.
He said he could give me stitches, but with no anesthetic — I'd just have to bear it. Although I was almost numb from the blood loss, it hurt. A lot. I remember squeezing my mother's hand every time the needle entered.

Then we were cleared out of the hospital and got ready to go to another one downtown. I was too weak to walk, but luckily some volunteers at the hospital doors put me on a stretcher and carried me. They asked very nicely if we had a car, or needed help getting to the hospital. Now, when I think of how many people volunteered to help, in such a friendly and orderly way so soon after the incident, I'm really moved — I'm sure many people were saved because of them.
The doctors said the hospital was about an hour away. I refused to sleep on the trip, even thought there wasn't danger by then. Cars flashing their lights were racing around the road, and I think they must have been bringing the injured. When we arrived, the doctor there made the same diagnosis, and drained my stomach. Afterwards, around 5 a.m., they put me in intensive care.

I must have passed out afterwards, and awoke the next morning. I learned then that my mom had also been seriously injured. Her left axillary had a gash nearly four inches long and a series of smaller cuts, and a tendon in her left middle finger was ruptured. All together she needed over 20 stitches. She had been injured by glass shards from the second explosion after she had come out to call after me.

It's been a long period of recovery since then. The first week, they drained over three pints of blood and liquid from me and gave me about two bags' worth of blood. After a week, some blood was condensing in my chest cavity. They had to operate on me again. It was minimally invasive, but I needed general anesthetic, and the recovery afterwards was particularly painful.  After the anesthetic wore off, I howled until the next morning. It took another few days before I could walk around and consume semi-liquid foods.

It's all part of being injured and recovering. But seeing the anxiety and guilt my parents have been through during my recovery, I'll never feel the same way again. My mom still can't move her fingers, and her other wounds have restricted her movements, and she hurts a lot on rainy days. Because of my chest injuries and surgery, as of now, I still can't stand straight for long periods, it's hard for me to move my shoulders, and breathing can be painful.

I'm more afraid of dying. The sound of glass [crashing], lightning, or other big sounds make me think of the explosion. I don't feel safe anymore.

However, during this process, the powers that be have left me very cold. I'm very grateful that my mother wasn't forced to go back to work after the explosion, grateful for the medical care. But after a week of stalling, the compensation offered has been about $313 per month, for a total of three months. Before the explosion, our two-bedroom apartment could have rented for between $470 and $550 per month, and that's not in the most bustling area of the development zone.

One week after the disaster, without the slightest notice to landowners, and without police supervision, [authorities], in the name of clean-up, search, and rescue, pried open the doors to seemingly all the homes in our area and sent in laborers to "sweep." Countless valuables were stolen. Our neighbors lost over $1,500 in cash. Homeowners needed police escorts to accompany them, but the cleaners could go in without the slightest supervision. Up until today, when my mother and father enter, our place is still a mess, and the glass has not been cleaned at all. In fact, it's worse than it was right after the disaster.

Then there's the question of compensation. I can't count how many times we victims have been insulted over this. It's said we lack perspective, that we're profiting from calamity. Let's just look at those who survived among residents of my building complex. How long did they have to save to buy those homes? Especially those young people who scrimped and saved to buy their first home as a married couple? And when we bought in 2012, we had no understanding of warehouses storing dangerous chemicals nearby — that warehouse didn't even exist then.

After the blast, the chemicals haven't been cleaned up, and the powers that be seem more interested in hushing everyone up. The contracts [they offered us] are full of holes and confusingly worded. They have offered to buy back the properties at 1.3 times [which likely refers to a multiple of either the home's purchase price or its market value -Ed.].

Forget for a second that the number is unreasonable; the contracts don't say when the payment will be made, how much time we have to vacate, or to what level we should repair the homes. They aren't even 15 clauses in the whole document; how are we supposed to sign this? How dare we sign this?

The 1.3 multiple looks great, but it's not enough money to buy another home nearby. It's said prices in the area haven't gone up after the explosion, but over the days that my mother and father looked at homes, the price of apartments in the area were going up. Not even a 1.5 multiple would allow us to buy a home comparable in quality.
Yet news reports say that over 70 percent of residents have signed the contract. That's true. So did my family. How did we sign it? After a month of silence, during the military parade ceremony [in Beijing, which commanded much of Chinese media attention], leaders from some bureau came to the hospital to talk. After an hour of "chatting," my parents signed. Hmph. How many other public sector workers signed, I don't know.

News reports haven't covered the "early signing bonus" policy put out by the powers that be. They said that those signing on Sept. 3 [the date of the military parade] would get a $3,135 bonus; later signatories would not. My 17-plus inches of wounds ([classifying me as] lightly injured) got us $470. My mom's 20-plus stitches got us $313. They're still estimating the losses to the inside of our home, and my dad and mom have been busy with that the last few days. As to compensation for missing work, missing school, emotional distress; it's not even worth thinking about.
Some people say we're being greedy, that we're just taking taxpayer money — shouldn't we seek compensation from the company responsible?

Ask me, and I have no friging idea. The city government has been investigating forever, and still hasn't found who's at fault. Is it that regulation wasn't strong enough, or that the company was taking advantage of a loophole? There are more questions than answers. Who are we, a group of little commoners, supposed to talk to?

It hasn't even been a month since the disaster, and the explosion is already fading from public sight. Even when it had just happened, few people actually knew the victims' situation. Most people thought that many residents had just received minor injuries.

But many were seriously hurt. It's just that at the time, the seriously injured were barely hanging onto life — how were they going to write about it online? And the newspapers weren't going to tell you about the [most gruesome injuries]. Yes, we should praise the firefighters who gave their lives to save others, and we should grieve over those who died.

But for us survivors, our lives have to go on. We still need outside help and attention in order to get back on track. Even if you can't help, please try to understand our predicament.

We're just common people trying to get back to normal.
