“One of the enduring mysteries of the Christchurch Earthquake was what possessed a transnational oil drilling company, Anadarko, to gain approval from New Zealand’s Economic Development Ministry (MED) to conduct seismic testing for oil and gas in the Canterbury Basin within four hours of the earthquake striking Christchurch.”

In 1995, the Christchurch City Council took ownership of the Cashmere Caverns (also known as the Cracroft Caverns) located under Christchurch Port Hills. In the following year, the University of Canterbury installed the CII ring laser. The ring laser research group was a collaboration between the University of Canterbury Physics and Astronomy Department, who operated the Cashmere Cavern Laboratory, and the Technical University of Munich and the Forschungsgruppe Satelliengeodäsie (German Federal Institute for Cartography and Geodesy) who operate the Gross Ring Facility.

The university continued to use the caverns as their laboratory. Moreover, the University of Canterbury built a new ring-laser gyroscope in the Cashmere Cavern with three quarters of a million dollars, awarded by the Marsden Fund in 2010.

This project grant, worth NZ$756,000, envisaged a ring laser gyroscope that would be tilted to face the south celestial pole, to measure the drag of the earth’s rotation compared to the distant astronomical objects in collaboration with a Geodetic Observatory Wettzell station in Germany, which operates a G-ring gyroscope.

These technologies appeared to be an addition to an array of radio sounding equipment known as ionosondes, set-out in a triangulated positioning located at Godley Head at the entrance to Lyttleton Harbour, at Eyrewell (about 30km northwest of Christchurch) and at Birdlings Flat (Akaroa Radio Array) situated on the southern end of Banks Peninsula on Kaitorete Spit about 45km south of Christchurch, ostensibly constructed to measure the ionosphere. Eyrewell is considered a geomagnetic observatory, along with Scott Base, which were operated by the Physics and Astronomy Department of the University of Canterbury. The suspicion is that these facilities were hacked as part of an operation to trigger the Canterbury Earthquakes. Eyrewell is now operated by GNS, who boasted in 2015 that earthquake science in NZ was 150 years old; the New Zealand Geological Survey began in 1865.

The ionosphere varies in thickness on a daily basis, known as the di-ernal effect.

The ionosphere becomes engorged with the morning glory of the sun, expands downward from the exosphere, deeper into the thermosphere, to penetrate the mesosphere. At night, the ionosphere shrinks back. The ionosphere is a wall-less lab.

Yet, it is well-known in the science community that disturbances in the ionosphere can sometimes precede earthquakes. This phenomena has been an area of earthquake forecasting research, and a growing field of podcasts tracking earthquakes.

For example, a 1997 study entitled, “A Possible Generation Mechanism of Acoustic-Gravity Waves in the Ionosphere before Strong Earthquakes”, explored the possibility that Acoustic Gravity Waves (AGW) were generated by a ‘Joule heating’ in a localized region of the ionosphere above the epicentre of earthquakes. ‘Joule heating’ occurs when a current passes through an electrical conductor to produce thermal energy, which causes the temperature of the conductor to rise. The origin of the ‘Joule heating’ was theorized to be an electric field of seismic origin, which implied that the ionosphere can become a medium for amplifying the transmission of thermal energy back to earth, as a result of disturbances originating from seismic activity.

A 2006 study “The Ionospheric Effect of Atmospheric Gravity Waves Excited Prior to Strong Earthquake”, found that heating of a local region of the ionosphere above the epicentral zone of an imminent earthquake appeared to be caused by a disturbance in the vertical atmospheric electrostatic field on the Earth’s surface in the epicentral zone of a forthcoming earthquake. This finding corroborated the 1997 study just mentioned, and stated research of the localised region of the ionosphere above the epicentral zone that underwent heating prior to earthquakes, needed to be ‘widened’.

In 2007, a joint Russian-Japanese science team studied atmospheric and ionospheric ‘preparation periods’ leading to earthquakes. In their study, entitled, “A Pilot Project on the Comparative Diagnosis Earthquake Precursors on Sakhalin Island: Experiments Results from 2007”, the scientists found that variations of atmosphere and ionosphere parameters before the August 2007 Sakhalin Island Earthquake completely corresponded to the indications revealed for strong earthquakes around the world in prior studies. However, the scientists added that trans-boundary access to data needed to be overcome by more trans-jurisdiction cooperation to learn more.

In July 2011, the China University of Mining and Technology made observations of ionospheric earthquake precursor events to the magnitude 7.1 Darfield Earthquake in Canterbury New Zealand. The China University study, entitled, “Satellite Thermal Anomalies before the M S 7.1 New Zealand Earthquake 2010”, found the local thermal anomalies that occurred about one month before the earthquake, “most likely resulted from underground heat”. This finding was said to be consistent with hot material upwelling from Earth’s mantle, which “leads to abundant geothermal activity such as hot springs and volcanoes.” Perhaps the Chinese team looked in the wrong direction.

Ironically, in another December 2011 paper entitled “Measuring Gravito-magnetic Effects by Multi Ring-Laser Gyroscope”, the authors proposed an under-ground experiment to detect the general relativistic effects due to the curvature of space-time around the Earth (de Sitter effect) and to rotation of the planet (dragging of the inertial frames or Lense-Thirring effect). The research group included scientists, technicians and engineers from Italy, and Germany, as well as a team lead by Jon-Paul Wells of the Department of Physics and Astronomy, University of Canterbury, Christchurch. This research proposal was a development on their project to build a new ring-laser gyroscope in the Cashmere Cavern, for which the University received $756,000 dollars from the Marsden Fund in 2010. But, their lab became too shaky.

Ergo, the plucky scientists lead by Dr Wells at the Canterbury University’s Department of Physics and Astronomy, were proposing an under-ground experiment elsewhere. The subtle general relativistic effects due to the Earth’s curvature of space-time still needed to be compared to the planet’s rotational drag — amid the Darfield Earthquake Sequence that would eventually surpass 13,0000 aftershocks.

In their April 2015 study, “Ionospheric Earthquake Precursors”, New Zealand’s Geological and Nuclear Sciences Institute (GNS) reached the conclusion that there were no ionospheric disturbances prior to four major earthquakes in the Canterbury Earthquake Sequence, which started with the magnitude 7.1 Darfield Earthquake on September 4 2010. The ECQ’s GNS study measured the Total Electron Content (TEC) in the ionosphere in a spatial grid above Canterbury, and New Zealand, for the periods preceding and following the Darfield Earthquake of 4 September 2010 and three major aftershocks, including the Christchurch Earthquake of 22 February 2011.

According to the GNS study, the most pronounced Total Electron Content (TEC) variation occurred on 18 February 2011 (Central Time Zone), or 19 February (NZT).

Coincidentally, a pod of 107 whales were found stranded at Mason Bay, Stewart Island on Saturday 19 February 2011. The documentary Sonic Sea shows the shipping noise, submarine sonar and seismic testing causes whale strandings, because the mammals try to get away from horrific incessant sound pollution.

It is perhaps critical to note that there is a high frequency (HF) radar facility, called the Unwin Radar array, which is located at Awarua, near Invercargill, South Island.

The Unwin Radar array is one 35 such high frequency (HF) radars located in both the Northern and Southern Hemispheres. It is part of an international scientific radar network known as the Super Dual Auroral Radar Network (SuperDARN). Bursts of shortwave radio pulses are transmitted from the radar in a southern arc that includes the South Magnetic Pole. The ensuing reflections from micrometeorites, the ionosphere, ocean and aurora are detected and recorded at the station.

The GNS study drew upon specialized GPS software from the Space and Geophysics Laboratory with the Applied Research Laboratories at the University of Texas, Austin.

Thus, at approximately 72 hours out from the Christchurch Earthquake, the greatest anomaly occurred. But, D. A. Rhoades et al said they had no explanation for the spatial distribution of the anomaly, which occurred to the east and west of the South Island about 750 kilometres apart. A TEC spike also occurred on 15 February (CST), or 16 February (NZT), at six days preceding the Christchurch Earthquake.

The GNS scientists said the anomalies in the data were more likely due to solar or geomagnetic effects, despite admitting they had “no explanation for the spatial distribution of the anomaly”. Tellingly, the scientists observed short-term heat released from the surface rocks prior to the four major earthquakes in the Canterbury Earthquake Sequence. New Zealand’s GNS was behind in the science.

Indeed, this 2015 GNS study missed a 2009 white paper in the Journal of Atmospheric and Solar-Terrestrial Physics entitled, “Air Ionization at Rock Surface and Pre-Earthquake Signals” that determined the pre-earthquake “thermal anomalies” could not be caused by Joule heat rising from a source below and heating the rocks at the Earth’s surface, since the rapidity of the heat appearing and disappearing had to be by another cause. They believed massive air ionization occurs at the surface of rocks, which are being stressed at one end. The authors went on to state:

“The build-up of stress within the Earth’s crust prior to major earthquakes may likewise lead to processes at the Earth’s surface, including massive air ionization, which can be expected to cause ionospheric disturbances and a host of other phenomena.”

— Journal of Atmospheric and Solar-Terrestrial Physics entitled, “Air Ionization at Rock Surface and Pre-Earthquake Signals”

In their December 2011 paper entitled, “Atmosphere-ionosphere response to the M9 Tohoku earthquake revealed by multiinstrument space-borne and ground observations: Preliminary results”, and published in Earthquake Science Journal, Dimitar Ouzounov et al found that before the M9 earthquake of March 11, 2011, the total electron content of the ionosphere increased dramatically over the epicentre, reaching a maximum three days before the quake struck causing a huge tsunami off the coast of Japan. The scientists used four measurement techniques characterizing the state of the atmosphere/ionosphere during the periods before and after the event.

Ouzounov et al analysed data from: (1) Outgoing longwave radiation (OLR) measured at the top of the atmosphere; (2) GPS/TEC (Total Electron Content) ionospheric variability; (3) Low Earth orbiting (LEO) satellite ionospheric tomography; and (4) variations in ionosphere F2 layer at the critical foF2 frequency (the highest frequency at which the ionosphere is transparent) from four Japanese ionosonde stations.

The collaborative Tōhoku Earthquake study between NASA and Moscow found:

“the existence of an atmosphere/ionosphere response triggered by the coupling processes between lithosphere, atmosphere and ionosphere preceding the M9 Tohoku earthquake of March 11, 2011.” — Dimitar Ouzounov et al, Earthquake Science Journal, December 2011

Two geomagnetic storms took place on the first and eleventh of March respectively, (Figure 4, marked in blue), while a precursor anomaly in geomagnetic disturbance preceded the earthquake. This “strong and very unusual increase of TEC was registered on March 8” marked by red in Figure 4 below. The TEC anomalous signals were registered between two minor and moderate geomagnetic storms, but the major increase of DTEC on March 8 was registered during a geomagnetically quiet period.

Ouzounov et al stated in their December 2011 Earthquake Science Journal article:

“A sharp increase in the electron concentration from the Japanese ionospheric stations (Figure 7) were observed with a maximum on March 8 and then returned to normal a few days after the main earthquake of March 11.”

As enlightening as these studies are, they exclude a phenomenon that I call Scientifically Obtuse Scientists Syndrome (or SOSS) that results from a ‘partitioning wall’, which severs publicly viewable science from research and development in transnational deep state complexes protected in the interests of ‘national security’.

This problem remains unstated in the science literature, as far as I can tell.

Because, many such studies of ionospheric earthquake precursors ignore the potential to weaponize a network of ionosphere heaters around the globe.

Ionosphere heaters — euphemistically-termed atmospheric ‘testing’ facilities — are installations of radio antennas knitted together to heat particles in the upper atmosphere with pulsed electromagnetic waves to rip holes in the ozone layer, lift and stretch the ionosphere, and bounce radiated energy downward to the Earth’s surface.

The idea is that phased-array radio antennas laid in a grid connected by underground copper cables can produce a focussed standing sky wave that can be steered as an ‘echo’ back to earth as a standing ground wave to achieve military purposes.

The ionized electrons in the ionosphere can be moved as ‘invisible’ beams to gather tomographic data of mineral, oil and gas deposits, or to gather and transmit communications, and locate and track subterannean military structures. The ionized electrons can also amplify or shift weather systems, and perhaps even generate earthquakes by antagonizing seismic plates. Scientists appear to be holding back.

The most well known of the known ionosphere heaters — euphemistically-termed atmospheric ‘testing’ facilities — is the High-frequency Active Auroral Research Program (HAARP), is located in Gokona Alaska. Construction for the HAARP facility began in 1992 and became fully operational in 1994. It was developed as a joint project between the US Navy, Air Force and Phillips Laboratories, under the US Strategic Defense Initiative (SDI). The University of Alaska came to own the facility in 2015 after the US Air Force, the US Navy and Department of Defense’s Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) had all conducted projects at the remote site.

It is constructed of 180 radio antennas interlaced to fire powerful beams of electromagnetic energy into the ionosphere. The antennas were installed by a subsidiary of British Aerospace Systems (BAES) using a patent owned by Advanced Power Technologies Inc. (APTI), a subsidiary of Atlantic Richfield Corporation (ARCO). It is the most powerful of its kind. The Akaroa Radio Array at Birdlings Flat about 45km south of Christchurch, was also constructed to measure the ionosphere.

In 1994, ARCO sold its APTI subsidiary, including the patents in the strategic weather warfare technology and the second phase construction contract to E-Systems, which specializes in electronic warfare equipment, spying devices, and navigation and reconnaissance machinery. In 1995, Raytheon paid $2.3 billion in cash for E-Systems Inc., with finance from two Rockefeller-controlled banks, Chase Manhattan Bank and Chemical Bank, as well as Bank of America National Trust and Savings Association.

In 2003, British Aerospace Systems Advanced Technologies Inc. outsourced its contract to build and install 132 antennas for HAARP to Phazar Corp., a specialist in wireless antennas for military applications. British Aerospace Systems also sub-contracted its work, awarded by the Office of Naval Research, to ‘defense’ contractor DRS Technologies to manufacture 60 transmitters that would compliment the antennas at the HAARP facility. The DRS Technologies’ unit that produced the transmitters is called C4I, short for Command, Control, Communications, Computers and Intelligence, which is a common systems configuration within the military-industrial complex. Between 1999 and 2012, Raytheon was contracted by the National Science Foundation to provide logistics, supplies and development of technologies for scientific research, which included weather prediction capabilities.

In 2012, a large weapons industry consortium — Lockheed Martin — was succeeded by Raytheon Polar Services, which now conducts weather research in Antarctica. Raytheon, which has an office in the International Antarctica Centre in New Zealand, describes “[t]he U.S. Antarctic Program” as a “national program for scientific research and geopolitical presence.” The term ‘geopolitical’ refers to global power politics, and the struggle for territorial space. In 2015, the Operation of the HAARP research facility was transferred from the US Air Force to the University of Alaska Fairbanks.

On March 26 2014, the deputy assistant secretary of the US Air Force for science, technology and engineering, Dr David Walker told the House Armed Services Committee’s subcommittee on Intelligence, Emerging Threat and Capabilities, in Washington D.C., that the HAARP facility was designed to manage the ionosphere by injecting energy into this region of the Earth’s atmosphere and control the ionosphere. This admission was included in the documentary Frankenskies to demonstrate what had long been derided as conspiracy theory. Dr Walker added that the US Air Force had managed the HAARP facility for a few years after taking over from the Navy. The US Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) was their last government customer. The ionosphere had been weaponized.

In 2015, the HAARP facility operation was transferred from the United States Air Force to the University of Alaska Fairbanks. Did ionospheres become mobile?

In this 2010 slide presentation entitled “On the Viability and Requirements of a Barge Based ELF System”, Dennis Papadopoulos of the University of Maryland, made the case for barges, floating platforms, and ships to be vehicles for mobile high frequency ionospheric heaters. The transmission of extremely low frequency waves to ‘communicate’ between satellites, ships, barges, platforms, and submarines may seem benign. Mr Papadopoulos suggested the effects could be scaled upward by locating such submarines, barges, ships or platforms at the ‘equatorial dip’ and bouncing such signals off the ionosphere. However, Papadopoulos also appeared to be presenting the utility of high frequency heaters located on ships and barges to drive alternating currents at the ionospheric region and control the ionosphere from marine vehicles.

This proof of concept was presented in collaboration with the US Navy.

After-all, Dr David Walker disclosed to the House Armed Services Committee’s hearing on March 26 2014, that the High-frequency Active Auroral Research Program (HAARP) facility, located in Gakona, Alaska, was designed to manage and control ionosphere by injecting energy into this region of the Earth’s atmosphere.

The Christchurch New Zealand and Tohoku Japan earthquakes of February 22 and March 11 2011, respectively, lead to suspicions that the phased array High-frequency Active Auroral Research Program (HAARP), located in Gakona Alaska, was activated to inflict the earthquakes. Insiders of the American Empire may have inflicted the earthquakes to signal to Western élites there was a stiff price to pay for membership.

The University of Alaska’s HAARP website posted a sequence of time-frequency spectogram images recorded by the HAARP Induction Magnetometer on the days preceding, during and following the Tohoku Earthquake in Japan. The instrument, the HAARP website stated, was provided by the University of Tokyo and measures temporal variations, or disturbances, in the geomagnetic field in the ULF (ultra-low frequency) range of 0-5 Hz in Earth’s upper atmosphere. The spectogram image for 11 March 2011 appears to show directed energy at the 2.5 hertz frequency level, as if the HAARP facility was used to leverage a magnetic storm that occurred around the time.

These 11 spectogram images recorded by the HAARP Induction Magnetometer from March 2 to March 12 appear to demonstrate the 2.5 hertz frequency level was used to trigger the Tohoku Earthquake in Japan 5:46am (UTC) on March 11 2011.

According to Michael Janitch of St. Louis Missouri, he posted a report on 9 March 2011 on his earthquake forecast podcast, DutchSinse, about a 7.2M in Japan, two days before the M9.1 megaquake, stating the escalation in seismic activity was global.

Janitch mentioned there had been 10 quakes in the magnitude 5 range since the 7.2 magnitude quake struck. He also displayed the HAARP Induction Magnometer, indicating he suspected the planet was being hit, and he warned for civil preparedness.

In their 2015 paper entitled, “Generation of Artificial Acoustic-Gravity Waves and Traveling Ionospheric Disturbances in HF Heating Experiments”, published in the Springe Journal of Earth Moon Planets, Pradipta et al demonstrated that acoustic gravity waves and travelling ionospheric disturbances can be artificially generated by the High Frequenccy Active Auroral Research Program (HAARP) facility in Gakona.

Acoustic-gravity waves (AGW) — which are a special type of sound wave that can cut through the deep ocean at the speed of sound — can also be generated by underwater earthquakes, explosions, and landslides, as well as by surface waves and meteorites. A single one of these waves can stretch tens or hundreds of kilometers, and travel at depths of hundreds or thousands of meters below the ocean surface, transferring energy from the upper surface to the seafloor, and across the oceans, MIT News said.

This AGW finding has particular significance for New Zealand, given that there is an abundance of aquifiers below the bedrock, especially in the Canterbury region. According to StatsNZ, Canterbury held 519 billion cubic metres or 73.2 percent of New Zealand’s total volume of groundwater, estimated to be 711 billion cubic metres.

The picture of earnest scientists beavering away to supply seismic and ionospheric data for military applications to weaponize the forces of nature gets more intriguing.

In 2004, and 2007, experiments with magnetospheric amplification and emission triggering using ELF and VLF waves took place in waters south east of New Zealand.

The experiments involved Stanford University in collaboration with HAARP facility at Gakona, and the research vessel, RV Tangaroa, owned by New Zealand’s National Institute of Water and Atmospheric Research (NIWA), a state-funded agency.

If anything, Golkowski et al’s paper entitled, “Magnetospheric amplification and emission triggering by ELF and VLF waves injected by the 3.6 MW HAARP ionospheric heater”, appears to demonstrate the precision of aiming the HAARP HF beam at various positions of the ionosphere to produce magnetospheric ELF/VLF wave-injections that might cause disturbances in the Southern Hemisphere.

This 2008 HAARP study has relevance for the question of whether such knowledge — in addition to other studies on producing gravity waves — could have been exploited by the US military to trigger the Darfield Earthquake Sequence, beginning on Sept 4 2010, including the Christchurch Earthquake. A subsequent 2011 study by Golwowski et al, based on the same data, shows echos that were sensed by the RV Tangaroa, as well as the Chistochina station in Alaska, which used to be a gold mining district .

In his 2008 PhD dissertation entitled, “Magnetospheric Wave Injection by Modulated HF Heating of the Auroral Electroject”, Mark Golwowski showed techniques to produce high frequency line, sweep and beam painting with the HAARP technology.

The patterned beams correspond with echoes picked up by the Chistochina station.

Therefore, it would appear that the ionospheric earthquake precursor anomalies that were most attenuated on 18 February 2011 (Central Time Zone), or 19 February (NZT) , — which was three days before the February 22nd 2011 Christchurch Earthquake — bear resemblance to magnetospheric wave amplifications amid emissions caused by the HAARP HF ionospheric heater. After all, the square and rectangular shapes in the heat signatures indicate an artificial source for the anomalies observed.

Crucially, Jim Lee, a South Carolina geo-engineering podcaster warned on his Climate Viewer podcast that the technologies to create artificial ionospheric mirrors have been advanced for military purposes; not just for scientific understanding.

Lee points out that the energy of the sun could be leveraged to use the ionospheric mirrors as lens, to heat or burn targetted areas and thereby cause earthquakes, wildfires or crop failures. Thus, an undeclared geophysical war could wreck household, business and community autonomy without populations being aware.

Therefore, the logic of U.S. weapons manufacturer, Lockheed Martin, being among the sponsors of the United States-New Zealand Council’s Partnership Forum in Christchurch at the time of February 22 2011 Christchurch Earthquake also becomes potent. Particularly, since the participants visited the International Antarctica Centre.

At 98th American Meteorological Society Annual Meeting in January 2018, Robert McCoy of the University of Alaska’s Geophysical Institute gave a presentation on the HAARP phased array facility at Gakona. McCoy said by focusing gigawatt of energy into a localized F-region of ionosphere, scientists can form beams, create currents, ducts, low frequency waves, trigger instabilities and cause electrons to precipitate.

Therefore, should we be surprised that a 1996 paper on weather weaponization presented future situations/scenarios containing ‘fictional representations’, via a circuitous route from within the Department of Defense (DOD) ‘school environment’?

The concepts white paper entitled, “Weather as a Force Multiplier: Owning the Weather in 2025”, was presented as a study “designed to comply with a directive from the chief of staff of the Air Force to examine the concepts, capabilities, and technologies the United States will require to remain the dominant air and space force in the future”. Although the paper claimed it was not official policy of the US DOD, the disclaimer noted it was written in the DOD school environment of academic freedom and in the interest of advancing concepts related to national defense. It was eventually uploaded to the US Air Force’s website where upon in June 2006 it was scanned to the internet’s famous archive portal, the Way-Back Machine.

“Weather as a Force Multiplier” actually envisaged making clouds with ‘smart’ nano-particles to deny surveillance capabilities to enemies, storm modification to provide advantage to war-fighters, and developing the capacity to modify precipitation in volatile parts of the world where water is scarce. Also envisaged was a global network of Artificial Ionospheric Mirrors (AIM) that could reflect electromagnetic beams targeted to create weather effects to clear clouds prior to air attacks, or impoverish nations. Therefore, this concepts white paper envisaged militarized weather systems.

However, because such ionospheric radio antennas are classified as research and communications facilities, their role as weapons projects fall outside the perusal of the U.N. “Convention on the Prohibition of Military or Any Other Hostile Use of Environmental Modification Techniques” or ENMOD, a United Nations Treaty that was ratified by President Carter in 1979. The ionospheric radio stations have dual purpose functions as communication and research facilities to gather data on substrata rock formations, resources and underground installations.

Therefore, the magnitude 7.1 Darfield Earthquake in Canterbury, New Zealand of September 4^th 2010 may have been a pre-emptive strike ahead of the impending publication of the U.S. Congressional Report, “Engineering the Climate: Research Needs and Strategies for International Coordination” the following month. The report made the case for getting on board with ‘research’ to safely practice climate geo-engineering, rather than waiting for a time of emergency. Ergo, hack the planet.

In her books — Chemtrails, HAARP, and the Full Spectrum Dominance of Planet Earth and Under an Ionized Sky: From Chemtrails to Space Fence Lockdown — Elana Freeland argues that the real reason for geo-engineering the atmosphere is to achieve militaristic world domination objectives. Freeland states that the Earth’s overlords are forging rivalrous space-faring empires. The inherent diabolical logic ‘requires’ humanity to be permanently contained in ‘lockdown’, meaning a sustainably developed curfew of permissible behaviours. In such a dystopian sci-fi world, every relationship, transaction and process is tracked, tabled and ticketed, so that there is no longer the freewill to evolve humanity along alternate trajectories.

Freeland asserts that the lower atmosphere has been transformed into strategic geographic areas with an engineered plasma for not only weather engineering, but also for extending telecommunications coverage, 3D radar surveillance, ‘Star Wars’ Strategic Defense Initiative reach, including Directed Energy Weapons systems, integrated with artificial intelligence, nanotechnology and robotics.

The University of Canterbury’s Physics and Astronomy Department is also one of five dozen partner institutions with the Icecube Neutrino Observatory, designed to observe the cosmos from deep within the South Pole ice. Encompassing a cubic kilometer of ice, IceCube supposedly searches for nearly massless subatomic particles called neutrinos. Evidently, these high-energy astronomical messengers provide information to probe the most violent astrophysical sources: events like exploding stars, gamma-ray bursts, and cataclysmic phenomena involving black holes and neutron stars. IceCube is said to also observe cosmic rays that interact with the Earth’s atmosphere. The IceCube was fully completed in December 2010 after six years of construction, with over 5000 optical sensors drilled one kilometer into the ice, to sense charge particles from neutrinos exploding in collisions with the ice.

The question arises as to whether the Icecube Neutrino Observatory in Antarctica has a dual role as a powerful directed energy weapon (DEW) capable of triggering earthquakes. In other words, the Icecube facility may be a gargantuan beam gun.

Icecube’s collaboration with University of Canterbury’s Physics and Astronomy Department is intriguing, given that the Cashmere Caverns Laboratory received a cash injection in 2010 for a ring-laser gyroscope upgrade that would be pointed at the southern polar region. Especially, given that primary funding for the construction of the Icecube Neutrino Observatory came from the US National Science Foundation, which is an ‘independent’ agency of the US federal government established in 1950 and which has been complicit in weather hacking projects since the mid-1960s.

My supposition about the earthquakes in New Zealand being engineered as part of a broader geophysical war, to signal compliance to the alliance may seem bat-shit mad.

However, a 1968 book edited by a young Nigel Calder (featured in The Great Global Warming Swindle), titled Unless Peace Comes: A Scientific Forecast of New Weapons there is an ominous chapter, “Geophysical warfare: how to wreck the environment”, written by a member of President Lyndon Johnson’s Science Advisory Committee. Professor Gordon J.F. MacDonald, who was also an associate director of the Institute of Geophysics and Planetary Physics at the University of California, Los Angeles, stated:

“As economic competition among many advanced nations heightens, it may be to a country’s advantage to ensure a peaceful natural environment for itself and a disturbed environment for its competitors. Operations producing such conditions might be carried out covertly, since nature’s great irregularity permits storms, floods, droughts, earthquakes and tidal waves to be viewed as unusual but not unexpected. Such a ‘secret war’ need never be declared or even known by the affected populations. It could go on for years with only the security forces involved being aware of it. The years of drought and storm would be attributed to unkindly nature and only after a nation were thoroughly drained would an armed take-over be attempted.”

MacDonald went on state:

“The key to geophysical warfare is the identification of the environmental instabilities to which the addition of a small amount of energy would release vastly greater amounts of energy. Environmental instability is a situation in which nature has stored energy in some part of the Earth or its surroundings far in excess of that which is usual. To trigger this instability, the required energy might be introduced violently by explosions or gently by small bits of material able to induce rapid changes by acting as catalysts or nucleating agents. The mechanism for energy storage might be the accumulation of strain over hundreds of millions of years in the solid Earth, or the super-cooling of water vapour in the atmosphere by updraughts taking place over a few tens of minutes. Effects of releasing this energy could be world-wide, as in the case of altering climate, or regional, as in the case of locally excited earthquakes or enhanced precipitation.

As far as military applications are concerned, … [a] nation possessing superior technology in environmental manipulation could damage an adversary without revealing its intent. [N]evertheless, the long-term possibility of developing and applying such techniques under the cover of nature’s irregularities presents a disquieting prospect.”

Dr. Gordon J. F. MacDonald was of course, also the chair of the Panel on Weather and Climate Modification appointed in March 1963, to review the then-present status and activities in weather and climate modification and its potential and limitations.

Thus, while the general community of American scientists were beavering away in the fields of atmospheric sciences, as well as earth sciences, ostensibly to comprehend the drivers of weather systems, climate, and even earthquakes — key insiders were developing knowledge, technologies and networks to weaponize the planet.

Subsequent to the 2011 Christchurch Earthquake, the aforementioned Japanese earthquake study found the solar and lunar motions did cause changes in the tidal stress state, and may trigger earthquakes. Therefore, the possibility that the sun, moon and tides may be harnessed as ‘force multipliers’ looked less bat-shit crazy.

At the time of the February 22nd earthquake people were to be “a-buzz” with the eerie earthquake prediction of ‘Moonman’ Ken Ring, a weather and earthquake forecaster who studied moon and solar activities in relation to tides. TV3’s now defunct Newshub reported “On February 14, 2011 Mr Ring made this tweet: “Potential earthquake time for the planet between 15th-25th, especially 18th for Christchurch, +/- about 3 days.”

On his website, Ring forecast the “18th may be especially prone. The possible earthquake risk areas are N/S faults until after 16 February, then E/W faults until 23rd.” Ring expected a 7+ magnitude earthquake, citing solar and lunar phenomena.

The Dominion Post (March 17 2011) followed up with a character assassination piece headlined, “Ken Ring’s Christchurch earthquake claims ‘terrifying’ people”. The paper said “[Ring] caused nationwide controversy this month when he predicted a massive quake would take place in Christchurch on March 20”. The newspaper added:

“His claims that the moon’s tides can affect when major earthquakes will strike are not supported by seismologists or scientists.” — The Dominion Post, 17 March 2011

The prime minister’s chief science adviser, Sit Peter Gluckman, was cited as an authoritative objective voice, saying there was no relation between the Japanese and Christchurch earthquakes. Ring had made his forecast for a major earthquake to occur on March 20, when he appeared on a radio show, MagicTalk, hosted by Marcus Lush, on September 22 2010. Mr Ring said the next big quake would occur on March 20 in Christchurch, along the east-west fault-line in Marlborough and Canterbury.

Gluckman conveyed the frequency of big earthquakes worldwide and in New Zealand, to downplay the relevance of Ring’s earthquake forecasting. To back up his point, Gluckman said that “Christchurch had endured many earthquakes before, and that the spire of Christ Church Cathedral had fallen off four times in the past 130 years.”

Besides, The Dom reported the concern of the Salvation Army’s co-ordinator of the charity’s 130-member counselling team in Christchurch, Lynette Hutson, who said Mr Ring’s claims had shaken the most rational people. Ergo, Key’s chief science advisor and the Sally’s chief for corralling counsellors both chimed in to scapegoat Ring.

The Australian Herald Sun also reported on Ken Ring’s forecast of a big earthquake on March 20 hitting the quake-stricken southern city. A University of Canterbury academic, Dr Mark Quigley, with expertise in active tectonics and geomorphology, was reported to have said Mr Ring’s assertions were “ludicrous”. The New Zealand Herald also noted that Ring had forecast the February 22 earthquake and foresaw on September 7 2010, a major aftershock to occur on the morning of March 20.

On March 20, a 5.1 magnitude aftershock rattled Christchurch at 9.47pm.

The New Zealand Herald reported it was the biggest aftershock since the February 22 quake, but dismissed the Moon Man’s prediction because experts said there was “no scientific link”. It’s epicentre was 10km’s east of Christchurch and 10 kilometers deep.

Ring’s forecast was for the morning of March 20 since the moon would be at its closest to Earth in 2011 at 9.44am. The big jolt hit 12 hours and three minutes later, and was preceded by 3.0 aftershock 10k’s West of Lyttleton at a shallow depth of 5km; and a 2.9 quake at 11k’s deep, occurred near the 5.1 jolt. The timing was “for the history books”, meaning there was a marginal of error for the hour and the date.

In his piece “Reflections after 20 March”, Ring lamented the media and political “beat-up” about his work; he felt they weren’t interested in a rationale consideration of the potential for luna theory to be applied to earthquake forecasting. He remarked the moon was at its closest for 19 years, beginning a week before 20 March 2011. Ergo, the Christchurch Earthquake of February 22 and the Japan Earthquake of March 11, were a demonstration of the formidable forces and devastating destruction associated with this 19 year lunar cycle. The archipelago that sits on the ring of fire missed Ring’s boat.

In 2012, GNS Science became like a rudimentary weather forecaster for earthquakes.

In other words, a year after government scientists, politicians and the media publicly bullied Ken Ring for his attempts to educate the public about the lunar and solar links drivers of earthquakes, GNS published information that bookies could profit off.

Furthermore, four years after Mr Ring became the South Pacific archipelago’s newest scape-goated public pariah to ‘resolve’ yet another crisis for the ruling class, GNS was considering the possibility that solar flares generated geomatic earthquake precursors.

Recall that in September 2016, a Japanese earthquake study found that the moon and sun can impact the seismicity of sub-duction zones with strong correlations?

The Kaikōura earthquake coincided with a supermoon (or perigee moon), which are known to cause ‘kingtides’, since the combined gravitational forces of the moon and the sun — which are lined-up — pull on the ocean. Recall that the prime minister’s chief science adviser, Sir Peter Gluckman, had said there was no relation between the Japanese and Christchurch earthquakes? And the Salvation Army counsellors who said Ken Ring’s earthquake forecasting was terrifying even the most rational people?

And yet, tectonic plates feel tidal stress. Perhaps there’s a classified tier to science, that knew about these forces decades ago and a stealthy asymmetric geophysical war has been waged by amplifying stresses with relatively small directed-energy inputs.

This linkages between earthquakes coinciding with this perigee phenomena was reported, aptly, by The Atlantic two months prior to the Kaikōura Earthquake.

This Atlantic article was based on a Japanese study that concluded “large earthquakes are more probable during periods of high tidal stress.” In their study entitled, “Earthquake potential revealed by tidal influence on earthquake size–frequency statistics”, Satoshi Ide, Suguru Yabe and Yoshiyuki Tanaka find that very large earthquakes, including the 2004 Sumatra quake, 2010 Maule earthquake in Chile and the 2011 Tohoku-Oki earthquake in Japan, tend to occur near the time of maximum tidal stress amplitude. The Japanese scientists — who trawled databases for amplitude of tidal stress, on a fault plane in the two weeks before large earthquakes — found tectonic tremors deep within subduction zones are highly sensitive to tidal stress levels, with the tremor rate increasing at an exponential rate with rising tidal stress.

The Japanese science team stated:

“Tidal deformations of the Earth due to motions of the Sun and Moon cause changes in the stress state, which may trigger earthquakes. The recent discovery of deep tectonic tremors in plate boundary regions has slightly modified our view of the relationship between tidal stresses and earthquakes, as these tremors are sometimes highly sensitive to tidal stress changes, with tremor rates showing an exponential increase in proportion to the applied encouraging stress. Thus, even stress changes of only a few [Kilopascal]* kPa can amplify the tremor rate by several orders. Knowledge of the tidal stress state in seismic regions can be used to improve probabilistic earthquake forecasting, especially for extremely large earthquakes.” — Satoshi Ide, Nature Geoscience, 12 September 2016

(* Kilopascal: a unit of pressure used in chemistry, chemical engineering, and physics.)

Recall the US-led multi-national ‘Indo-Pacific’ humanitarian and civic assistance project called Pacific Partnership, that was established out of the disaster relief operation following the horrific December 2004 Sumatra Earthquake and Tsunami?

And that at the time of the Christchurch and Kaikōura earthquake sequences, these events coincided with the presence of U.S. ‘dignatories’ in N.Z. Moreover, these quakes occurred when the country was hosting multi-national military contingents, and also when there was (were) a seismic survey ship(s), in the quake zones.

Ergo, since the Christchurch and Kaikōura earthquake sequences both involved sub-duction zones, and coincided with close lunar proximity to Earth, a critical inquiry would be: what natural and human precursors were associated with these events?

Given that Satoshi Ide et al published their findings in Nature Geosciences two months before the Kaikōura earthquake, which was picked up the same day by The Atlantic, you have to wonder if the GeoNet scientists’ TVs are bigger than their bookshelves.

In 2017, GeoNet seismologist John Ristau Ristau said in his opinion there was “no credibility” in linking moon or lunar phases to earthquakes. Ristau was interviewed for a hit-piece on Ken Ring and his latest competitor, Nigel Gray, who posted on Facebook a ‘heads-up’ stating, “On 14th November and a couple of days either side of that date, watch for a major earthquake, and quite possible in South pacific area.”

The Daily Mail reported Nigel Gray’s ‘heads-up’ as a prediction. Gray was pointing out the effect of the supermoon’s gravitational pull, which increases tectonic plate stress.

He added that geo-engineering, which can be targetted to specific areas, is more likely to have success during a supermoon phase. This assertion was dismissed by Dr Ristau.

This ‘remarkable’ turned of events riffed like a stylus had been bumped from a track titled “Cracroft Caverns Jolt Machine”, to a track called “Kaikōura Supermoon Kracker” on an album called Terror Archipelago by Transnational Force Multipliers.

In 2012, Anadarko was awarded two blocks in the Pegasus Basin for exploration.

Four years later, the Amazon Warrior would also gain approval, post-Kaikōura Earthquake, for its seismic surveys in the Pegasus Basin, which intersects with the Kaikōura Coast. The Operational Area reached from Hastings, North Island, south to Kaikōura, South Island, and 20 kilometres to the west of the Kaikōura Whale Sanctuary, the “Marine Mammal Impact Assessment” stated. The application for the seismic survey was dated 8 November 2016. The Kaikōura quake struck on November 14, at two minutes past midnight local time. The link was dismissed out of hand.

By this point the Amazon Warrior, the world’s largest seismic survey ship, had been seismic testing off the Wairapa Coast for three years, Fairfax reported in 2016.

It’s presence drew suspicion that it might be connected to the possible engineering of the M7.8 Kaikōura Earthquake, with struck just past midnight at 12.02am local time on November 14 2016, or 11:02, November 13th, UTC (Coordinated Universal Time).

Ergo, geophysical warfare technologies may be harnessed to amplify the forces of nature, by applying the military concept of ‘force multipliers’ in a secret war.

➳ Christchurch Earthquake Analysis: Disaster Militarization Down-under?

The Christchurch and Kaikōura earthquakes were inflicted as part of a lengthy low-grade war to re-integrate New Zealand back into the American Empire after the ANZUS alliance rift became a chasm following the Rainbow Warrior Bombing.

Uncannily, the scheduled military exercises, Southern Katipo in 2011, and the Naval Review in 2016, were re-purposed for disaster relief operations for the Christchurch and Kaikōura earthquakes. Twice, the military won public acclaim. What are the odds?

The re-integration of New Zealand into the Anglo-American Empirewas, in effect, ‘book-ended’ by the two earthquake sequences, Canterbury and Kaikōura. When US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton landed in the capital city to sign the ‘Wellington Declaration’, this US-NZ political and military agreement effectively sealed a ‘bridge’ over the ANZUS/Anti-Nuclear Rift that widened into a chasm in the aftermath of the Rainbow Warrior Bombing. The signing meant that this US-NZ political-military agreement was officially ratified in the 33rd year after Prime Minister Robert Muldoon secretly established the Government Communications Security Bureau (GCSB). This signing also afforded Clinton the opportunity to virtue signal in Christchurch, which was reported to have been impacted two months prior by the Darfield Earthquake in September, despite the US-NZ Declaration being unrelated.

In 2016, Stuff reporter Philip Matthews noted that Key had lost enthusiasm to be the country’s top Chief Minister before Kaikōura, while the Herald’s Claire Trevett observed Key waivering at times from his ‘messaging’. Key himself claimed at the time he resigned, that he had made the decision when he was in New York in September 2016. It’s possible Key may have been given his orders to step aside to allow for the ship of state to list to the ‘political left’ at the 2017 general election. After all, to ‘come full circle’ with the Empire, it would have to be on a Labour-led Government’s watch.

Ergo, to ‘come full circle’, an engineered black operation would need to be inflicted in order to compromise the competing political faction, since it was on the watch of Lange’s Labour Government that the ANZUS/Anti-Nuclear Rift became a chasm.

Meanwhile, anthropocentric of earthquake precursors continued — by ‘coincidence’.

Snoopman contends the American deep state inflicted the two earthquake sequences as a covert price to New Zealand’s élites,and a warning to Western élites attuned to such spectacular shocks. If his supposition is correct, geophysical warfare is a horrific addition to the geopolitical tool-kit requiring vigilant watchers to detect the signs.

Ironically, in the 33rd year after the last US Navy ship had publicly entered New Zealand waters, the Amazon Warrior gained approval to conduct seismic testing. And while Greenpeace was on its trail, the crew of Rainbow Warrior III had to suck up the re-integration of New Zealand back into the Anglo-American Empire amid the public acclaim scored amid the fortuitous Kaikōura Earthquake disaster relief operation.

Tellingly, a full restoration of N.Z.’s security alliance with the U.S.-NATO Military Empire — under a Labour-led Government occurred in the 33rd year after the 1985 Rainbow Warrior Bombing. The Ides of March Mosques Massacre in Christchurch on March 15 2019, was inflicted as a deus ex machina plot device, to resolve a conflict whose roots reached back to the 1970s, when Labour Prime Minister Norman Kirk sent a frigate to Mururoa in support of an anti-nuclear flotilla. Ergo, the Christchurch Moques Massacre, also signalled to the Global Élites that a dark world reset was on the horizon. The image of a gaunt ‘Scarlet Woman’, Jacinda Ardern, superimposed onto the Burj Khalifa Tower, was the epitome of psychotic projection in a sanitized show that looked, sounded, felt, smelt and slinked like a demonic alchemical psychodrama to process the planet with group fear, ritualized rage and contained hope. The South Pacific archipelago became, once again, a stage-set for a global voodoo show. Ardern’s image was projected on the Burj Khalifa Tower in Dubai against the night sky, in the aftermath of the Ides of March Mosques Massacre, it created the surface impression that peace comes through cathartic rituals following catalytic crises that bind Christians and Muslims. But, also this apparent military-grade civic scorcery signalled a dark global reset was on the horizon, that would involve a more brazen alchemical psychodrama, as Snoopman alluded to in May 2019.

The Christchurch Mosques Massacre of Friday March 15 2019 was the world’s fourth deadliest, first live-streamed civilian mass shooting. And, as New Zealand’s largest peace-time massacre — the mass shooting shocked the nation of five million.

The Ides of March became a potent date throughout Western Civilization, because of the cultural legacy of the assassination of Julius Caesar on March 15^th 44BC, particularly because it was famously dramatised by William Shakespeare in his play, Julius Caesar. In the Roman calendar, it was notable as the deadline for settling debts.

The terrorist attacks on the two mosques occurred on the 74th day of the year. What are the odds that the attacker allegedly justified his horrific terrorism with a sparsely-filled ‘manifesto’ that was 74-pages long? Especially since since the accused, identified as ‘Brenton Harrison Tarrant’ appeared in the Christchurch District Court wearing a cloak that was made from a canvas or calico fabric. After all, the 74th chapter of Islam’s Holy book, The Koran (Quran), entitled “Al-Muddathir” translates to “The Cloaked One”. (This costume was predictable, since a cloak is given to prisoners who are deemed to be at risk of suicide). Particularly uncanny, because the events of the March 15 attack and the aftermath unfolded with uncanny similarity to the key verses of Chapter 74 of the Koran. The Quran is an allegory coded with key words to signify the Metonic Cycle — which reunites the lunar and solar calendars every nineteen years. It is crucial to note that the number 19 is repeated 19 times in the Koran and is mentioned only once in letter form, in Verse 30 of Chapter 74, which refers to nineteen angels (as wardens over the fire). It became apparent that shooter ‘Brenton Tarrant’ was going to set Al Noor Mosque alight, but it appears he realized he forgot to bring a lighter when he was standing at the boot of his car to get another weapon. The stereo played the song “Fire”, with the lyric, “I am the god of hellfire”.

How odd that N.Z. came ‘full circle’ with the staged Christchurch Mosques Massacre striking on the 42nd anniversary of Muldoon secretly approving the creation of the GCSB, on March 15 1977, as any newsroom possessing a copy of Nicky Hager’s 1996 book, Secret Power — could readily check. As the Snoopman showed in his three-part series, Darkest Day Deception, the official narrative of the Ides of March Mosques Massacre essentially behaved like a mass shooting victim. There were so many holes, the official reports failed to stay standing-up when lined-up in the snoopy-doo scopes.

Especially, since in the prior to and in aftermath of the mass shooting, Jacinda Ardern met the NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg. On June 29th 2022, New Zealand attended a North Atlantic Treaty Organization summit for the first time, as member of the Indo-Pacific 4 group (IP-4), which is a military and economic pact. What are the odds that the on June 29th 1894, urgent legislation as introduced by the Government to guarantee £2,000,000,000 to the Bank of New Zealand to enable it to continue banking transactions? The Bank of New Zealand was rescued and nationalised.

How uncanny given that Bank of New Zealand became the Colonial Government’s financier to escalate the New Zealand Masonic Revolutionary War after it had faltered during the First Taranaki War of 1860-1861. The Taranaki colonists, who were angry at being heemed in at New Plymouth, which lacked a natural harbour, coveted the coastal Māori village of Waitara, which had fertile lannd a river port. And so the Colonial Government’s Executive Council decided to approve a survey at Waitara on Janaury 25 1860, as a ploy to construe the local Te Atiawa tribe were in rebellion for predictably pulling out the survey pegs. The date was emotionally charged, since it ws precisely 20 years prior, on Janaury 25 1840, that the New Plymouth Company of New Zealand was established at Plymouth, England. What are odds that when Ardern and Stoltenberg fronted a press conference on January 25 2019, it riffed off the date, January 25 1840, that the Plymouth Company of N.Z. formed at Plymouth England?

This date correspondence may seem like a nothing burger. However, it is uncanny that when Ardern and Stoltenberg next fronted a press conference on August 6th 2019, it just happened to riff off the historical date, August 6 1840, that the Plymouth Company purchased the right to choose one block of 10,000 acres to be selected in any part of New Zealand. Ergo, the Christchurch Massacre was an alchemical wedding to resolve the awkward issue of how to reintegrate N.Z.’s left political left bloc back into the Western Alliance on the watch of a Labour Party Prime Minister.

And, what are the odds that on the day of the Christchurch Massacre, Ardern would have two speaking engagements in New Plymouth? The first was at the H2 Taranaki Roadmap energy conference, which was a hydrogen energy industry group promoting the decarbonization of the economy to meet net-zero carbon emissions targets. This engagement was followed by a brief appearance at WOMAD, among whose principal sponsors are Todd Energy, an exploration partner with oil and gas company, OMV. On the eve of the first anniversary of New Zealand’s historic oil and gas ban, OMV announced a plan to drill off the Dunedin coast starting in the summer of 2019/2020. The Austrian oil, gas, and petrochemical company gained an extension on an existing permit in 2018. In 2017, Green Party co-leader James Shaw had posed with Jacinda Ardern campaigning to stop new oil and gas exploration permits being issued as part of a cross-party platform to develop a ‘zero-carbon economy’.

The potency of a multicultural festival primarily sponsored by the oil and gas consortium, Todd Energy, owned by N.Z.’s richest dynastic ruling family, the Todd’s —coinciding with Ardern’s public appearance at the same festival just as the gunman’s email arrived in the inbox at the Prime Minister’s office, together with the Ardern Labour Coalition Government’s moratorium on issuing new off-shore oil and gas exploration licenses — make these linkages to the timing of the attack symbolic.

A Gladio Trojan horse op was inflicted as a deus ex machina plot element to reset N.Z.

The huge sums poured into the Pike Project were not to return a profit. But, to keep the ‘black operation’ going, so that the devastating explosion could occur on the 42nd anniversary of an aircraft carrier, USS America, arriving at Wellington Harbour on November 19 1968, with 42 days left in the year, during Lyndon Johnson’s presidency.

The repetition codifies geopolitical chess moves, rather than cosmic synchronicity, coincidences, or random chance events. Indeed, N.Z.’s long re-integration back into the Western Alliance was book-ended by the arrival of the 42nd president of the United States on Air Force One, at a time when U.S. warships and submarines were banned.

Recall that Bill Clinton, as the 42nd American President, visited New Zealand for the APEC Summit in 1999? Clinton’s presence was widely reported as an important step in warming relations since the rift over ANZUS in the 1980s; the role of the Warrior Bombing was a sacred cow. This repetition was not merely corresponding expressions with Paul Lévy’s Probability Theory, or Oscillation Law. The repetition of the number ‘42’ in the Pike explosion’s timing codified a ritualized display of spectacular power.

Ergo, the ‘Pike River Mine Disaster’ was also packed with an American Empire-themed motif, that telegraphed New Zealand’s re-integration back into the Western Alliance would involve more covert novel Trojan horse Gladio operations to come ‘full circle’, as well as to complete police state formation as a techno-feudalist vassal state.

Therefore, the circumstances that underpinned the binding of N.Z. to the Empire deserve a second look, since they were in effect ‘book-ended’ by two earthquakes.

If it seems too far fetched to readers that an American deep state would inflict earthquakes — even if the technology existed to amplify environmental conditions — consider that the United States has a history of carrying out false flag attacks to trigger assassinations, coups d’état and regime change wars, as Why We Fight shows.

In his new book, USA: The Ruthless Empire, historian Daniele Ganser shows that the United States has carried numerous false flag attacks. Previously, Ganser wrote, NATO’s Secret Armies: Operation Gladio and Terrorism in Western Europe, in which he showed the security services, intelligence agents or special force units, or ex-personnel from such units, from all 16 NATO countries at the time, had inflicted state-sponsored terrorist attacks on their own citizens. In these black operations, the bombings of train stations, buses, and airports, as well as assassinations, coups d’état, and mass shootings would be blamed on a communist group or commie patsies. The CIA, MI6 and the Coordination and Planning Committee (CPC) of NATO’s Supreme Headquarters Allied Powers Europe (SHAPE) were key culprits.

Such false flag attacks were a low-grade war inflicted to achieve a ‘strategy of tension’ to shift the political ‘center of gravity’ of Western Europe away from socialist governments, by associating peace, freedom and democracy with right wing governments. Operation Gladio was exposed in 1990, but soon forgotten.

The spectacle of a false flag is unifying, yet totalitarian in nature, as Monash University lecturer in international public law Dr. Eric Wilson explained in his book The Spectacle of the False Flag: Parapolitics from JFK to Watergate. Wilson stated the spectacular power of a false flag deep event is used to emotionally hijack mass populaces, politically capture public state authorities and reset the trajectory of a society onto a fully-fledged police state path and beyond. A false flag is an attack carried out by a deep state network that produces the evidence to lay blame either on an enemy state, or unwitting patsies, or witting suicidal psychopaths to construct a new state enemy or escalate a conflict. The purpose is to achieve hidden objectives that reset the political trajectory of a society, and sometimes, the world.

Pertinently, in a 2016 interview, Swiss historian Dr. Daniele Ganser framed the Rainbow Warrior Bombing as an example of a NATO power conducting terrorism to inflict damage against a defiant environmental group, Greenpeace. Ganser mentions that after the Director of the DGSE was fired over the Rainbow Warrior Bombing, the embittered Admiral Pierre Lacoste stated (in 1990) that the during the time that NATO’s stay-behind network operated in the ’60s and ’70s, terrorist action against then-French President de Gaulle and his Algerian Peace Plan, had been carried out by groups that included, “a limited number of people from the French stay-behind network”. France’s deep state turned against their own President. It was due to this hostile faction’s attempts to assassinate President de Gaulle (1959-1969) that NATO’s headquarters shifted from Paris to Brussels in 1967. De Gaulle said ‘get’ — in French.

But, because the journalists who wrote books in the aftermath — such as Rainbow Warrior: The French Attempt to Sink Greenpeace, The Rainbow Warrior Affair and Sink the Rainbow! An Enquiry into the ‘Greenpeace Affair’ — did not know about NATO’s secret low-grade war inflicted across Western Europe, starting with Italy in 1947, the full dimensions of the Rainbow Warrior Bombing operation remained obscure.

This finding implies that all states in the Western Alliance maintained a contrived ignorance about how commonplace it was for the NATO powers to inflict terrorism on ‘social democracies’ run by super-rich oligarchies and their networked military and intelligence families in Western Europe. The NATO Alliance were smugly confident because they knew the public, as well as most socialist politicians of Western Civilization did not know about Operation Gladio. The ignorance continues.

In conventional warfare, a belligerent state conducting a ‘false flag’ terror operation uses another country’s ‘flag’ to carry out an attack with the intention to frame the enemy as the perpetrator. In asymmetric Fourth Generation Warfare, a state-sponsored terrorist attack is carried out by security services, intelligence agents or special force units, or ex-personnel from such units, and is blamed on a terrorist group or patsies, as historian Daniele Ganser showed in his book, NATO’s Secret Armies: Operation GLADIO and Terrorism in Western Europe and as well as Richard Cottrell’s book, GLADIO: NATO’s Dagger at the Heart of Europe — The Pentagon-Nazi-Mafia Terror Axis. But, staged disasters that appear natural? Fifth Generation Warfare attacks a culture at an unconscious level by manipulating perceptions to steal the identity of adversaries and also the unwitting hosts who cheer-lead the reforms, and in the process reconstructs the identity of an entire class, or culture, or civilization.

The most successful Fifth Generation Warfare is never identified, partly because the violence is so discreetly dispersed that the victims are unaware they are in a war and therefore are oblivious they are losing a war. Indeed, the more dispersed the warfare is in its actions, the more effective and immune the clandestine operation becomes.

It is possible, therefore, that a secret geophysical war with powerful technologies has been waged for years on countries to inflict prices for re-admission to the Empire, punishments for defections, and to signal threats others in the Western Alliance as well as attacking enemies, or rival great powers to undermine their economic strength.

At the time of the catastrophic earthquake and tsunami struck the Tōhoku region inJapan on March 11, 2011, the USS Ronald Reagan was deployed to the Korean Peninsula region on a training exercise, with Carrier Strike Group 5 of the U.S. 7th Fleet. The Nimitz-class nuclear-powered super-carrier was heavily involved with refueling, reconnaissance, and transportation of supplies, personnel and equipment during the disaster relief mission, Operation Tomodachi, which means “friends”.

The picture of earnest scientists beavering away to supply seismic and ionospheric data for military applications to weaponize the forces of nature gets more intriguing.

Particularly, when it is recalled that it was under President Ronald Reagan’s Strategic Defense Initiative (SDI), dubbed ‘Star Wars’, that the HAARP facility was developed as a joint project between the US Navy, Air Force and Phillips Laboratories. The Department of Defense’s Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), the US Air Force, and the US Navy all conducted projects at the remote site in Gakona.

Moreover, the coincidences of preparations for the first biannual multi-national military war-game, Southern Katipo, at the time of the Christchurch Earthquake, as well as the Naval Review at the time of the Kaikōura Earthquake, and the training exercise off the Korean Peninsula at the time of the Tōhoku Earthquake — are signs of black operations, as anyone who has read Webster G. Tarpley’s book, 9/11 Synthetic Terror knows. Tarpley found that there were 46 exercises, war-games and drills prior to or occurring on September 11 2001 that envisaged aspects of what occurred on 9/11. Some of them appeared to ‘go live’. The coincidences of drills, exercises and war-games that coincide with a terrorist shooting, bombing or a hijacked plane smashing into a building are actually the key sign of a false flag black op — as Jon Rappoport’s article, “Training Exercises Dovetail with Mass Shootings, What are the Odds?” points out. Among the list are: the 2001 9/11 Coup D’état, the 2005 London 7/7 Bombings, the 2011 Oslo Bombing/Massacre, the 2012 Aurora, Colorado “Batman” Shooting, and the 2013 Boston Marathon Attack. As Snoopman stated previously, such ‘coincidence’ of drills, exercises and war-games occurring simultaneously to a terrorist shooting, bombing or a hijacking or other crisis, provides the cover for deep state actors to take the training scenarios live, by leveraging a national security state’s compartmentalized operation classifications. And, the transnational cryptocratic dark state does exploit the confusion about whether the phenomena is an exercise or a real world situation, while maintaining plausible deniability about the ‘coincidences’.

Since these earthquakes have the hallmarks of engineered geophysical warfare calamaties, the events would be an innovation in false flag attacks, since the causes were naturalized. Indeed, both quakes performed like Trojan horse Gladio attacks.

As with the Canterbury (Christchurch) Earthquake sequence, the Kaikōura Earthquake coincided with an international military presence in the form of a ‘Naval Review’ to commemorate the New Zealand Royal Navy’s 75th Anniversary.

Remarkably, this coincidence meant that not only was it the first time in 33 years that a US warship had officially visited New Zealand. It also meant that HMNZS Canterbury — as the Royal New Zealand Navy’s sea-lift and amphibious support vessel — was once again sprung into the role as lead rescue ship amid preparing for a naval exercise.

Meanwhile, seismic testing ships were awaiting the state to sign off on surveys of basins to map for oil and gas fields, as well as mineral resources.

The Christchurch Earthquake, as well as the Kaikōura Earthquake, also worked to manufacture consent of the New Zealand public for large infrastructure spending.

Thus, it is crucial to identify the battling factions who move seamlessly between the Public State and the hidden Deep State, since it seems that with each ‘disaster’, it was intended that the armed forces won popular acclaim. Ergo, the re-integration of New Zealand into the Empire appeared to have a sinister subtext that passed over most Kiwis’ heads. Yet, if my terrorism thesis is correct, this integration on John Key’s watch implied that key insiders of Labour-branded faction would also have to be drawn into a ‘darkest day’ plot that would cause that faction to be permanently severed from the visible Public State. Ergo, once a Labour-led Government regained power, the national security state could win popular acclaim amid a black operation.

Reading the runes, a clandestine cadre, or brotherhood, appear to have inflicted the Christchurch and Kaikōura earthquakes to re-bind New Zealand to the Empire after three decades of cooled relations over the ANZUS military alliance rift.

The metaphor-laden historical date riffing in the timing of the Christchurch Earthquake, as well as the Kaikōura Earthquake, together with the uncanny timing of military exercises, and favorable lunar and solar activity and two secretaries of state ‘bookending’ the earthquakes are dead giveaway ‘signals intelligence’ of a staged ops.

This catalytic Christchurch quake was fixed to be a diabolical ‘worst of type disaster’, but it clocked up a death toll of 185. And so, it didn’t surpass the Napier Earthquake.

These staged catastrophes, calamaties and other catalytic events reveal a cryptic signature, or ‘matrix code’, used by a cryptocratic dark state. If it still seems too far-fetched that an earthquake could be engineered, let alone such a sinister plot could happen and the perpetrators could get away with such a brazenly horrific massacre, then recall that it wasn’t the only environmental disaster associated with oil in 2011.

Remember the Rena Grounding on Astrolabe Reef, which happened on October 5 2011? And that the MV Rena broke apart on the reef, and the ensuing oil spill was described at the time as New Zealand’s worst environmental disaster?

What are the odds that the grounding of the navy vessel, HMNZS Manawanui, on Sinolei Reef in Samoa, would occur on the 13th anniversary of the Rena Grounding?

In 2024, Luxon had cut the defence budget by $1.5 billion. Luxon metaphorically took a punch to the nose. The shadow government cryptically communicated that the defence budget was above the Luxon Cabinet’s paygrade. In 2025, defence got boosted.

Luxon had failed to comprehend the long theatirical re-integration of New Zealand back into the Western Alliance, meant contributing military capability to participate with the American Empire’s ‘global security challenges’. In effect, Luxon’s cabinet was told in no uncertain terms that austerity didn’t apply to the national security state.

Recall how in 2011, no new permits to prospect, explore, or mine for petroleum were issued? The Key Government repealed the governance over the Foreshore and Seabed Act 2004, which was designed to circumvent Māori customary title claims to include customary rights, and passed the Marine and Coastal Area (Takutai Moana) Act 2011.

Moreover, the long re-integration also meant boosting access to resources. This is why the Christchurch Earthquake was timed to riff off the date, February 22 in 1962, when the Kapanui Well in Taranaki first produced gas and liquid hydrocarbons.

And recall the Rena ran aground on the same day that a historical secret meeting of the New Zealand Company held in London, October 5 1840, to negotiate with Lord Russell for official recognition. The settlement company met with the Secretary of State for War and the Colonies occurred three days after Queen Victoria approved Governor William Hobson’s proclamation of sovereignty over the whole of New Zealand on October 2nd 1840, via the London Gazette. Ergo, the staged grounding of the MV Rena on October 5 2011 was codified with a recognition-themed riff, that cryptically telegraphed a threat that unless the cryptocratic dark state’s propecting claims were recognized, more environmental disasters could be inflicted at scale.

Logically then, the precision timing of the Christchurch Earthquake struck a drilling-themed historical riff to signal a significant milestone in the re-integration theater.

As such, New Zealand’s re-integration into the American Empire had a dark side.

This re-integration theater featured political, commercial and martial aspects. Chess moves were made in plain sight, either on the news, or in government and corporate reports, as players posted themselves as ‘hostages’ in accordance with game theory.

Since such ‘hostage exchanges’ are calculated to stabilize relations as power structures undergo transformations, the traumatised families, divided communities and entrained population were all being mocked as they accepted the creepy ‘desired solutions’, however reluctantly. The cryptic symbol sorcery that is codified into the metaphor-laden events, with thematic historical date riffs is the dead giveaway of the transnational cryptocratic dark state inflicting mayhem with impunity.

This metaphor-laden riffing included themes of oil exploration, banking, cathedral capital raising, technology upgrades and combat and disaster relief exercises — all to telegraph sponsorship, caution, scapegoats and the sinister hidden objectives.

By stealthily inflicting this Trojan Horse catalytic ‘earthquake’, the cryptocracy was able to advance New Zealand’s transformation into a technofeudalist digital dystopia.

As a form a fifth generation warfare, this geophysical terrorism was a gleeful exhibition of spectacular power inflicted as a milestone marker for the re-integration of New Zealand back into the Western Alliance. The timing of the 2011 Christchurch Earthquake, to coincide with the February 22 deadline for approving Anadarko’s application for seismic line tails in the Canterbury Basin, also ritualized the teether tightening of N.Z.’s economic entwinement with the American Empire.

The quake was also inflicted as a signal to vassal oligarchies there is a price to pay for allowing defections. Democractic franchises were extended on the understanding that peasants never bother Overlords. New Zealanders have yet to comprehend that the American Empire implemented the ‘1980s Project’; it was a reset to forge a global super-economy. And, that the corporate heist of the New Zealand economy in the mid-1980s and mid-1990s was not only a local expression of the ‘1980s Project’. But also, that the strategic sabotage of New Zealand’s industry was the logical consequence of the ‘Erebus Disaster’ of 1979, an air terrorism event that communicated a threat to move bureaucratic mountains for the envisaged trans-corporate heist of the economy.

Amid the shakes, an over-arching meta-message was signalled: Trojan Terrorism.

Post-Script: In his “Darkest Days by Dates Down Under” series, Snoopman surveys the curious coincidences of calamities, catastrophes, or crises that jolted the nation while power, wealth and control were accumulated. In this disturbing multi-decade sketch, Snoopman traces the creepy trail of spooky minds, who he believes plot machinations with an eye on the past and a dark vision of the future. The circumstantial evidence reveals an awful picture of each new administration becoming embroiled in a cover-up of a staged event made to appear as an accident, a natural disaster, or a crisis caused by an unhinged man, or an ‘unsolved’ crime. The modus operandi of metaphor laden-historical riffing continues because most monkeys suffer from symbol illiteracy. See also Snoopman’s “Staged Disasters Down Under” series spanning 1947 to 1968.  

Back when Steve Snoopman was ‘Snoopboy’, he delivered the Auckland Star during the dark days of the Reagan White House. He forged his superpower to ‘Thunk Evil Without Being Evil’ while writing a thesis on the Global Financial Crisis. Upon quipping Batman had failed to bust any Gotham banker’s balls — since his ass is owned by DC Comics— he consequently realised New Zealand needed a Snoopman.
