1.5 Million Displaced After Chile Quake

By ALEXEI BARRIONUENO and LIZ ROBBINS

RIO DE JANEIRO — A strong aftershock struck Chile on Sunday, a day after a destructive 8.8-magnitude earthquake left hundreds of people dead and a long swath of the country in smoky rubble.

The death toll was expected to rise, particularly around Concepción, Chile’s second-largest metropolitan area, which is roughly 70 miles from the quake’s center. The aftershock was reported around 8:30 local time Sunday morning from the capital of Santiago, where it shook buildings, according to Reuters.

More than 1.5 million people have displaced by the quake, according to local news services that quoted the director of Chile’s emergency management office. In Concepción, which appeared to be especially hard hit, the mayor said Sunday morning that 100 people were trapped under the rubble of a building that had collapsed, according to Reuters.

Elsewhere in Concepción, cars lay mangled and upended on streets littered with telephone wires and power cables. A new 14-story apartment building fell, while an older, biochemical lab at the University of Concepción caught fire.

In the nearby port of Talcahuano, a giant wave flooded the main square before receding and leaving behind a large fishing boat on the city streets.

“It was terrible, terrible,” said Adela Galaz, a 59-year-old cosmetologist who said glasses and paintings fell to the floor of her 22nd-floor apartment in Santiago, 200 miles from the quake’s center. “We are grateful to be alive.”

President Michelle Bachelet, speaking at a news conference on Saturday night, called the quake “one of the worst tragedies in the last 50 years” and declared a “state of catastrophe.”

While this earthquake was far stronger than the 7.0-magnitude one that ravaged Haiti six weeks ago, the damage and death toll in Chile are likely to be far less extensive, in part because of strict building codes put in place after devastating earthquakes.

The quake Saturday, tied for the fifth largest in the world since 1900, set off tsunami waves that swamped some nearby islands before moving across the Pacific. Hawaii began evacuations before dawn, but by early afternoon there — more than 15 hours after the earthquake first struck 6,500 miles away — the fears of a destructive wave had passed. Countries including Japan and the Philippines were on alert and ordered limited evacuations in anticipation of waves hitting Sunday.

Chileans were only just beginning to grapple with the devastation before them, even as more than two dozen significant aftershocks struck the country.

In Santiago, the capital, residents reported having been terrified as the city shook for about 90 seconds.

Some people ran screaming from their downtown apartments, while car alarms and sirens wailed during the middle of the night. At least one apartment building collapsed, according to local media, and one highway buckled, flipping cars.

“We are in panic because it has been trembling all day,” said Cecilia Vial, 65, an interior decorator in Santiago, who dashed out of her apartment only to return at night because she had nowhere else to go.

“We cannot go against nature,” she said. “This is something that nature did.”

Paul E. Simons, the United States ambassador to Chile, said in a telephone interview from Santiago that people he spoke with at the embassy said those 90 seconds “felt like five minutes.” He added: “It was definitely an emotional experience.”

Mr. Simons said that although the United States had offered aid, Chile’ s government had not yet reque

sted assistance. All international relief groups were on standby, and the International Federation of Red Crosses and Red Crescents said the Chilean Red Cross indicated that it did not need external assistance at this point.

Although there were long lines at supermarkets and gas stations, and damaged buildings and roads, the capital city, according to residents there, was mostly calm by the late afternoon Saturday. But the scene was grimmer in Concepción and surrounding areas to the south.

In Talca, 167 miles south of Santiago, almost every home in the center of the city was severely damaged, and on Saturday night, people slept on the streets in the balmy night air near fires built with wood from destroyed homes. All but two of the local hospital’s 13 wings were in ruins, said Claudio Martínez, a doctor at the hospital. “We’re only keeping the people in danger of dying,” he said.

Dr. Martínez said the hospital staff had tried to take some people to Santiago for treatment in the morning, but the roads were blocked at the time.

Eduardo Martínez, 57, a local resident, said many people on his street had died and that he and his five brothers all lost their homes.

In Chillán, 69 miles from Concepción, a crumbling wall allowed 300 prisoners to escape and incite a riot, according to La Tercera, the nation’s largest newspaper. The police captured 60 inmates, but more than 200 were still at large, the newspaper reported on its Web site. With major highways and bridges destroyed, and slabs of concrete jabbing diagonally into the air, transportation slowed or was halted altogether.

Major seaports and airports, including the main airport in Santiago, were out of operation across the central region, Chilean officials said. TV Chile reported that part of the ceiling at the airport had collapsed, but that runways appeared intact. Cellphone and Internet service was sporadic throughout the country, considered one of the most wired in Latin America, complicating rescue efforts.

On Robinson Crusoe, one of the coastal islands hit by early waves, authorities said at least four people had been killed.

President Obama spoke briefly outside the White House on Saturday afternoon, expressing concern for the country and saying the United States would offer aid in rescue and recovery efforts.

“Early indications are that hundreds of lives have been lost in Chile and the damage has been severe,” Mr. Obama said.

He told Mrs. Bachelet that the United States was ready to help if needed. “We will be there for her should the Chilean people need assistance,” he said

State Department officials said that Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, who had been planning a trip to South America beginning on Monday, was also contacting Mrs. Bachelet, with whom she has long had warm personal relations.

Ban Ki-moon, the United Nations secretary general, also offered his condolences, as well as longer-term aid should Chilean officials signal the need for it.

The earthquake struck at 3:34 a.m. in central Chile, centered roughly 200 miles southwest of Santiago at a depth of 22 miles, the United States Geological Survey reported.

The Geological Survey said that another earthquake on Saturday, a 6.3-magnitude quake in northern Argentina, was unrelated.

In Salta, Argentina, an 8-year-old boy was killed and two of his friends were injured when a wall collapsed, The Associated Press reported.

The most powerful earthquake ever recorded was also in Chile: a 9.5-magnitude quake struck in the spring of 1960 that struck near Concepción and set off a series of deadly tsunamis that killed people as far away as Hawaii and Japan.

But that earthquake, which killed nearly 2,000 people and left more than two million homeless at the time, prepared officials and residents in the region for future devastating effects.

Shortly after a 7.8-magnitude earthquake struck in Valparaíso in 1985, the country established strict building codes, according to Andre Filiatrault, the director of the Multidisciplinary Center for Earthquake Engineering Research at the University at Buffalo.

“There is a lot of reinforced concrete in Chile, which is normal in Latin America,” Professor Filiatrault said. “The only issue in this, like any earthquakes, are the older buildings and residential construction that might not have been designed according to these codes.”

This was in direct contrast to Haiti, which was unprepared for the Jan. 12 earthquake, Professor Filiatrault added.

“If you are considering this magnitude is 8.8, I would be very surprised if the death tolls come close,” Professor Filiatrault said.

Tribulation Period Tsunamis and the Earth’s Isostasy Problem!

For quite a while the word “isostasy” did not appear in dictionaries because it was geological jargon that only a geologist would use among associates in the discipline. My computer spelling check system still puts a red line under it to let me know it does not exist. During the tsunami catastrophe one of the many pastors that called me heard me use “isostasy” in our conversation, so I defined it for him, but advised him he would not find it in any dictionary. Just to make sure I checked in a new dictionary, “The New Merriam-Webster Dictionary,” and lo and behold, there it was big as life. It gave the following definition: “A general equilibrium in the earth’s crust maintained by the gravity induced flow of deep rock.” I first heard the word used in a Physical Geology class I had at Arkansas Tech University in the seventies and, by the time I had graduated and taken post graduate geological courses, I became convinced that many prophetically directed Bible verses indicated the isostasy of the earth was going to be put in a state of equilibrium confusion by the weight shifting of water and land through earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and tsunamis, which would be occurring like never before during the latter portion of the tribulation period. You will find ample evidence of this in my last book, “Birth Pangs from the Bottomless Pit,” and on this Web Site in the last three Prophecy Updates in our Archives, which will refer you to many others in our Birth Pang and Prophecy Update Archives. I have been teaching this for 30 years, and my last book was written more than 20 years ago, so I am not a Johnnie-come-lately, who has suddenly decided to use the tsunami to bring a new idea to the prophetic stew of our age.

I have taught in “Tectonic Chaos,” “Tribulation Triad,” “The Bottomless Pit,” and “Birth Pangs from the Bottomless Pit” that, according to Scripture, the great tribulation period was going to be dominated by great earthquakes and humongous volcanic eruptions along the thousands of miles of tectonic plate boundaries, and tsunamis that would rake the coastlines of all nations. I am certain the horrific events described vividly by all the prophets from Amos, Joel, and Isaiah in the Old Testament to John’s closing book of Revelation in the New Testament, are visions of geologically generated phenomena. I am also certain that God, not man with his weapons of mass destruction, will produce the bulk of the destruction by his own power released through his own creation, the earth itself. The Scriptures which follow are just

a few of the many exposited on in all my books.

Matthew 24:21,22 – For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be. [22] And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect’s sake those days shall be shortened.

Daniel 12:1 – And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time: and at that time thy people shall be delivered, EVERY ONE that shall be FOUND WRITTEN IN THE BOOK.

Malachi 3:16 to 4:3 – Then they that feared the Lord spake often one to another: and the Lord hearkened, and heard it, and A BOOK OF REMEMBRANCE WAS WRITTEN before him FOR THEM that feared the Lord, and that thought upon his name. [17] And they shall be mine, saith the Lord of hosts, in that day when I make up my jewels; and I will spare them, as a man spareth his own son that serveth him.

[18] Then shall ye return, and discern between the righteous and the wicked, between him that serveth God and him that serveth him not. [1] For, behold, the day cometh, that shall burn as an oven; and all the proud, yea, and all that do wickedly, shall be stubble: and the day that cometh shall burn them up, saith the Lord of hosts, that it shall leave them neither root nor branch. [2] But unto you that fear my name shall the Sun of righteousness arise with healing in his wings; and ye shall go forth, and grow up as calves of the stall. [3] And ye shall tread down the wicked; for they shall be ashes under the soles of your feet in the day that I shall do this, saith the Lord of hosts.

Luke 21:25-28 – And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring; [26] Men’s hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken. [27] And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. [28] And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.

My great comfort in all this is found in Paul’s letter to the church at Ephesus concerning redemption.

Ephesians 4:30 – And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.

Ashamedly, I confess that the number of times I have grieved him since I was born again 60 years ago may be approaching a million, and the number of times I have confessed my sins is in the same ballpark.

I John 1:8,9 – If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. [9] If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

But in spite of what a wretched man I am in the flesh, I rejoice continually because I know I will be delivered from this body of death when my sealed soul leaves it, since it has been eternally passed from death to life by a one time sacrifice of Jesus, saved to the uttermost by his grace and, additionally, I also have the promise that even this old sinful fleshly nature that daily plagues me, will also be changed at the first resurrection. Paul asks a question in verse 24 below, and then answers in for us in verse 25, for which I thank God, and rejoice daily it is the truth of God in Christ Jesus.

Romans 7:14,23-25 – For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, sold under sin. [23] But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members. [24] O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this death? [25] I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then with the mind I myself serve the law of God; but with the flesh the law of sin.

John 5:24 – Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, HATH everlasting life, and SHALL NOT come into condemnation; but IS PASSED from death unto life.

Hebrews 7:24,25 – But this man, because he continueth ever, hath an unchangeable priesthood.

[25] Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God BY him, SEEING he EVER liveth to make intercession for them.

I Corinthians 15:50-52 – Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption. [51] Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, [52] In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.

Hours of Death and Devastation

30 September 2009, 10:56 PM

AN undersea quake churned up towering tsunamis in the Pacific, powerful tremors shook Indonesia, while Typhoon Ketsana cut a fierce swathe into Cambodia in long hours of death and destruction across the world.

Tsunamis slammed into the Samoan islands on Tuesday, killing at least 113 people, as they wiped out entire villages and flattened tourist resorts, AFP reports from Samoan capital Apia.

The tsunamis swept across the Pacific, battering Samoa where hospital workers said it killed at least 84 people, American Samoa

where it felled 22, and Tonga, where at least seven people died.

Officials in American Samoa, about 100 kilometers from Samoa, said the death toll of 22 was expected to climb. “It could take a week or so before we know the full extent,” Michael Sala, Homeland Security director in American Samoa.

While the quake toppled buildings and sent thousands fleeing to high ground as the tsunami approached, many others were hit by the walls of water that swept people and cars out to sea and obliterated coastal settlements.

As Australia, New Zealand and the United States led with immediate pledges of assistance, scores more people were missing feared dead in the chaos and despair that the twin disaster left in its wake.

Later, a powerful earthquake struck off the city of Padang on Indonesia’s Sumatra island on Wednesday, killing at least 78 people and trapping thousands under rubble, Reuters reports from Padang.

At least 78 people had been killed and “thousands of people are trapped in the rubble of buildings” in the city of 900,000 people, Rustam Pakaya, head of the health ministry’s disaster centre in Jakarta, said.

The 7.6 magnitude quake was felt around the region, with some high-rise buildings in Singapore, 440 km to the northeast, evacuating staff. Office buildings also shook in the Malaysian capital, Kuala Lumpur.

Padang, the capital of Indonesia’s West Sumatra province, sits on one of the world’s most active fault lines along the “Ring of Fire” where the Indo-Australia plate grinds against the Eurasia plate to create regular tremors and sometimes quakes.

Meanwhile, Typhoon Ketsana has killed at least 11 people in northeastern and central Cambodia, police and government officials said on Wednesday, after the storm left another 55 dead in Vietnam, AFP reports from Phnom Penh.

“At least nine people were crushed last night when their houses fell down,” said Chea Cheat of the Red Cross office in central Kampong Thom province. Two died in overnight storms in northeast Cambodia and 35 injured in the central region, officials said.

Officials added that at least 100 houses in the province were completely destroyed and over 400 others were damaged Tuesday amid rain and floods.

The storm packed winds of up to 145 kilometres per hour when it hit central Cambodia Tuesday evening, said Ly Thuch, deputy chief of the National Committee for Disaster Management.

Seth Vannareth, director of Cambodia’s meteorology department, said as the storm moved towards capital Laos, “It will not be very strong anymore.”

Typhoon Ketsana toll touches 331

AFP 1 October 2009, 12:56am IST

HOI AN (VIETNAM): Typhoon Ketsana extended its destructive rampage through Southeast Asia on Wednesday, blowing away whole villages in Vietnam, Cambodia and Laos as the regional death toll rose to 331.

Ketsana killed 246 people in the Philippines while still a weaker tropical storm, before strengthening over the South China Sea and smashing into Vietnam on Tuesday, leaving another 74 dead from flooding and landslides. It moved inland to lash Cambodia overnight, killing 11 more people, and caused meter-high floods in Laos on Wednesday.
