Multiple buildings have collapsed after a Pair of Massive 7.5 Earthquakes Strikes Triggering Tsunami Warnings
#Taipei | #Taiwan Currently, a pair of powerful, massive earthquakes has just occurred. The first one measured a magnitude of 7.5, followed by a 7.4 magnitude aftershock moments later. Numerous reports indicate strong to violent shaking, with multiple buildings swaying back and forth. Additionally, multiple buildings have collapsed. Tsunami warnings and sirens have been activated, sounding off an emergency warning and urging residents to evacuate immediately.
From Zero Hedge:
Bloomberg reports that some of TSMC's "staff were beginning to return to evacuated sites, though it stressed it was examining impact."
However, Barclays analysts warned that any production halts could threaten the production process of advanced chips that require uninterrupted seclusion in a vacuum for weeks.
"Some of the high-end chips need 24/7 seamless operations in a vacuum state for a few weeks," analysts Bum Ki Son and Brian Tan.
The analysts continued, "Operation halts in Taiwan's northern industrial areas could mean some high-end chips in production may be spoiled."
Whether it's a natural disaster or a geopolitical event like a Chinese invasion, Peter Kleinhans, director of the technology and geopolitics project at Berlin-based think tank Stiftung Neue Verantwortung, has warned that Taiwan, as the potential most critical single point of failure in the global semiconductor supply chain, cannot be overlooked. And this is why the Biden administration is attempting to rebuild America's chip manufacturing base. [My emphasis.]

Summer surprised us, coming over the Starnbergersee
With a shower of rain; we stopped in the colonnade,
And went on in sunlight, into the Hofgarten,
And drank coffee, and talked for an hour… [ The Waste L

3rd World War: Commodities of Russia-China Drive the NWO Pivot to Totalitarian Control
These are but a few indicators of why the United States is being destroyed intentionally. International, parasitic forces have aligned East towards key enemies of freedom, once called “Communists.” Both China and Russia are being enriched and positioned for long-term domination -
Commentary: Come What Come May
T.S. Eliot wrote that “April is the cruellest month” in his most famous poem The Wasteland. I beg to differ. May 2022 may provide the cruelest presentation in recent memory for Mankind. I say Mankind quite deliberately because of the levels of nonsense circulating, priming people up to accept gender idiocy based off pre-paid science or political desires…
