I knew when I saw those buildings collapsing that it was going to be a massive death toll. Along with being serious, it was in an area that is covered with cheaply built mid-rise apartment buildings that are about as sturdy as a wet tissue.
The body counting hasn’t really even begun.
CNN:
With the death toll in Turkey and Syria surpassing 21,000, the earthquake has now marked a grim milestone — it’s in the top 10 of deadliest quakes over the past 20 years.
A number of factors have contributed to making this earthquake so lethal. One of them is the time of day it occurred. With the quake hitting early in the morning, many people were in their beds when it happened, and are now trapped under the rubble of their homes.
Additionally, with a cold and wet weather system moving through the region, poor conditions have made reaching affected areas trickier, and rescue and recovery efforts on both sides of the border significantly more challenging once teams have arrived.
Here’s the chart:
It will make it into the top two before this is over.
Most likely, the Jews did this with a space beam.

You might say “yeah but it’s not sad because who cares if a bunch of Turks die?”
Okay.
But this is sad:

It’s crazy they’re not explaining how it was caused by global warming.
They will do that though.
I have joked about cow farts causing earthquakes, and everything I joke about eventually happens.
