Is a seismic weapon possible?

I wonder if people agree or disagree that a seismic weapon is even possible.
I'll start by saying always thought people who blamed HAARP for causing earthquakes were a little daft. I thought HAARP definitely had some ulterior purpose to do with project bluebeam and sky imagery but not sure what else.

Reading a book written in 1981called The Montauk Fault by Herbert Mitgang. It is a work of fiction but discusses a seismic weapon. About the book (still reading it)

About the author en.wikipedia.org...

This caused me to wonder if it (seismic/ earthquake producing weapon) was even possible
and when I searched for more information - found there was very little.
Almost as if information had been scrubbed which of course piqued my curiosity and inspired me to begin a thread on it. Seismic weapons. Possible?

Here is what little information I could gather outside of specific HAARP related threads and websites. Some websites repeat information but I tried to be as inclusive and objective as possible. A limited number of ATS threads were started but interest waned quickly - or people were thrown off tracks...? or quickly diverted...? Surprising since I think the topic is a conspiracy to end all conspiracies... if true.

Declassified Report:”Tsunami Bomb Weapon” Created in WWII. Where is it Now?
www.earth-issues.com...

“Top-secret wartime experiments were conducted off the coast of Auckland to perfect a tidal wave bomb, declassified files reveal. An Auckland University professor seconded to the Army set off a series of underwater explosions triggering mini-tidal waves at Whangaparaoa in 1944 and 1945. Details of the tsunami bomb, known as Project Seal, are contained in 53-year-old documents released by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade.” – From article in the New Zealand Herald (New Zealand’s leading newspaper), 9/25/1999

Project Seal: “Tsunami Bomb” papers declassified
inpursuitofhappiness.wordpress.com...

Professor Thomas Leech’s work was considered so significant that United States defence chiefs said that if the project had been completed before the end of the war it could have played a role as effective as that of the atom bomb.

Devastating tsunami bomb viable, say experts
www.nzherald.co.nz...

University of Waikato researchers believe a modern approach to the wartime idea tested off Whangaparaoa could produce waves up to 30m high. Dr Willem de Lange, of the Department of Earth Sciences, said studies proved that while a single explosion was not necessarily effective, a series of explosions could have a significant impact.

A former colleague of Professor Leech, Neil Kirton, told the Weekend Herald that the experiments involved laying a pattern of explosives underwater to create a tsunami. Small-scale explosions were carried out in the Pacific and off Whangaparaoa, which at the time was controlled by the Army.

This website should be taken with a grain of salt since I can see an anti-American bias but still interesting information brought up and lots of it. Haiti and the seismic weapon www.voltairenet.org...

Yes, seismic weapons do exist and the United States, among others, has them.

Some interesting observations on this ATS thread and the only thread that got any attention in the way of stars or flags, even then so few as to be of any notice:

Haiti rumor: was quake caused by seismic weapon?

Topic:Haiti earthquake Get Adobe Flash player Like any disastrous quake around the world, the Haiti disaster has sent shockwaves of rumors and speculations. One of those was that the Caribbean island became a testing ground for a new generation of seismic weapons. Samir Shakhbaz grills one of Russia’s leading expert Yevgeny Rogozhkin on the hot topic

Here are a couple of videos with opinions on this:



Before the implications are discussed perhaps we should determine if
a seismic weapon is even in the realm of possibility.

Well, what do you think?
Thanks in advance for opinions either way.

I imagine that seismic weapons are (at least as of now) an impossibility. A seismic weapon would probably work like a bunker buster bomb, only it would need to penetrate miles into the ground to be effective, a capability we don't have currently.

HAARP definitely is not causing earthquakes, though.

I'd say it is possible to build some kind of seismic weapon in theory. I'd think it impossible in practice though; I just don't think we are technologically near the point where we can generate the tremendous energies necessary to manipulate the earth on that scale.

EDIT: S & F for an interesting topic, thanks.

Hey if teleportation and time&space folding is possible, seismic weapons sound much easier to do.

"Sound" is a very powerful weapon and it passes trough matter. Making earthquakes with HAARP looks has hard has making pancakes with flour, milk and eggs.

So do you think Project Seal is a cover for something else entirely or a bogus report of a bogus project? Trouble with that is those alleged de-classified documents. The guy named above supposedly already created this and was detonated in the Aucklands so if these reports are true (which I think is the real question for the time being) it is not only possible but... Been there, done that.

Imagine.

In the book BOTH the US and Russia have this capability,
it is what keeps us from exerting undue power over the other
and in theory anyway THIS IS what is meant by MAD.

Mutually assured destruction.

HAARP sends radio waves up into the ionosphere to heat it up. Are they able to redirect those waves back at the ground at specific targets?

I heard that the population of China is so large that if they all jumped into the air at the same time it would cause an earthquake when they landed.

I believe it is quite possible.

We all have our faults.

But thus far our weapons can't create those faults. I'm willing to bet the military is looking into seismic weapons, but putting them into practice would have too many ethical issues (if it's even possible to make a seismic weapon; we see the same issues with geo-engineering - it's part of the reason that geo-engineering is still very theoretical and not being put into practice).

I know I didn't think so either but the fault lines are already there. This cause and effect might be similar to a sneeze and an avalanche under the right set of conditions and or circumstances.

If you were able to bounce them off a satellite, why not?

Yes, you can build a seismic weapon. It's also sometimes refered to as a crust-buster! You can also build a weapon that will incinerate the Earths atmosphere. You can build a bomb big enough to change the Earths orbit.
You can do all these things because we are very smart very angry monkeys with access to fissionable materials and lots of cash !!!!!
