Earthquake hits southeastern Iran

Earthquake hits southeastern Iran

It seems to me that we are having an abundant amount of stronger than what is considered to be normal seismic activity around the globe. Is there something going on here? Are they all connected in some way?

Upcoming changes on this planet are escalating faster and faster, Earthquake in California, mudslide, now Iran, a week ago elsewhere I forgot (Asia somewhere I believe). Maybe terrorism will be the least of our problems when natural disasters go into overdrive...

Im sure this is natrule

theres a right of "fire" its a ring around the earth and most if not all valcanoces are connected to it...

becouse the tetaneke plates

think of a orange, if you slize litle holes alaround it, then squez, the joice=lava and when this is happing the skin is running agents itself triggering all theys earth Q's


im sure someone can explane it better then me... dont fret it is not a qensidnce this is just how it should be

I know earthquakes can happen anywhere, but how common are these in Iran? I wouldve thought these wouldnt be very common in that area. Im no geologist though.

Holy #, I wouldnt of thought that.

41K on 3 quakes wow......thats an average of 13,666 people killed in each one. Wow!!!!

With all these earthquakes all over... maybe its just Gods way of saying... can't we all just get along?

Stop with all this war or I'm going to give you something to really worry about

i geuss none of you read or understude my post????


When one BIG qauke happends, its like wiggling a chain that setoff most of the othere plates or the same plate


comeon people! i studied this yEars ago! in 7th grade!

I understand that DM, but your point is not very clear?

its not the end of the world, its not the epocoleps

its not goverment testing, its not a conspearsy

this chain of earthquakes has been happining forever and will happen forever unless some "realy, bad" happends

then its time to worrey!

Reports out now state that 10,000 could be dead. This is a major quake.

unfortunately we have no control over mother nature.
With all this activity, I bet the Gaia theorists are having a field day!

We had an earthquake (4.5) here in DC a cpl weeks ago.
It happend close to Richmond and was felt up in to Maryland.
Not much damage, but definatly a rare event.

Quake not reported on usgs website
Nevada Quake not reported on USGS site

17 August 1999: TURKEY - More than 17,800 people were killed by a quake measuring 7.4.

Here is a link to some pretty bad recent earthquakes.
Seems the Mid-east gets some major ones.

Seems that this quake in Iran beat the Turkey one by fatalities.

Iran Appeals for Help After Killer Quake
Estimated Death Toll of 20,000 Could Eventually Double, Rescuers Say
By ALI AKBAR DAREINI, AP

BAM, Iran (Dec. 27) - Overwhelmed rescue crews picked through entire city blocks of rubble in search for survivors and bodies a day after an earthquake ruined this southeast Iranian city. With the death toll in the thousands, Iran appealed for international help and promised to waive visas for foreign relief workers.

The scope of the tragedy was so vast that a reliable death toll was impossible to pin down so soon after the magnitude 6.5 quake hit Bam early Friday. The Interior Ministry's early estimate on Saturday was 20,000 dead, while two leading rescue officials said the toll could eventually double.
