John R Moore:
“ (…) The size of the world’s ocean’s is a bit difficult to wrap your brain around. Of the 197 million square miles of planetary surface, 139.5 million square miles are oceans! According to the University of Southern California (USC) Geology Department, the world’s oceans vary in their levels by 180 meters (highs to lows) that’s 594 feet! This is a major part of the puzzle as to where all the water will come from that will cause worldwide tsunamis (tidal- waves) and worldwide flooding! These variations in ocean levels are (I quote from USC): “Caused by gravitational differences resulting from irregularities in the lithosphere.” Professor McCanney states that the Earth’s rotation is the major factor in this phenomenon. Here’s what this means in plain English. The oceans have millions of square miles of water above what we think of as sea level. The oceans also have millions of square miles of water below what we think of as sea level. Go back to what the USC says above. This accounts for how the water stays in place (gravity & earth’s rotation). What is necessary to cause worldwide tsunamis (tidal waves) and worldwide flooding? New, outside forces that disrupt the earth’s rotation that currently keeps the water where it is. (…) A disruption in the Earth’s rotation in either speed (normally 1,000 miles per hour) or direction (a pole shift), These possibilities are incorporated in what Professor McCanney calls “action at a distance, caused by very large comet” and the Earth is in deep trouble in a matter of a month (or less). Ladies and gentlemen, as I state above, the water for world-wide tsunamis & world-wide flooding is already in the world’s oceans!" Retired ‘Green Beret’ John R Moore explains what is really behind the effects of climate change and why the elite is covertly preparing for violently rising ocean levels. He exposes the cover-up of an extinction level threat due to the approaching star (The Destroyer) and its planets. http://chapter126.wordpress.com/

^Qué?
That's an amazing piece of pseudoscience, skilfully mixing the 2012 nonsense with Anthropogenic Climate Change denial, with a little New World Order conspiracy thrown in. And the Bible quotes. Anyone using those while arguing for anything outside a Bible should not be trusted. There is no Planet X approaching the Solar System, at least in the foreseeable future. (not to mention that Planet X is a now disproved hypothetical planet explaining the seemingly erratic orbits of Neptune and Uranus, that has been proven to be caused by the lower then expected mass of Neptune, so the guy can't even get his imaginary planet's names right.). All the other names are downward stupid, I particularly like "G1.9", which is a Supernova remnant near the centre of the Galaxy It s true that Sea levels deviate massively, but the amount of water stays constant, it's secondary school physics. In order to have floods, new water is needed, that comes from the melting in-land icecaps, especially those of Greenland. Read this and you'll be cured
