Major Eruption Imminent? Earthquake Swarms Reported At Mt. Hood, Mt. Rainier And Mt. St. Helens <http://endoftheamericandream.com/archives/major-eruption-imminent-earthquake-swarms-reported-at-mt-hood-mt-rainier-and-mt-st-helens> Posted: 17 May 2016 02:45 PM PDT [image: Volcano Erupting Full Moon - Public Domain] <http://endoftheamericandream.com/?attachment_id=6252>Is an eruption of one or more of the major volcanoes in the northwest United States imminent? In recent days, very large earthquake swarms have been reported at Mt. Hood, Mt. Rainier and Mt. St. Helens. It is certainly not unusual for each of these volcanoes to experience earthquake swarms from time to time, but right now we are seeing this happen at all three volcanoes *simultaneously*, and this comes at a time when seismic activity along the Ring of Fire is on the rise all over the planet <http://endoftheamericandream.com/archives/apocalyptic-drone-footage-shows-giant-cracks-in-the-earth-on-japans-southern-island>. If you have followed my work for a while, then you probably already know that I have been consistently warning that an eruption of Mt. Rainier is coming, and of course Mt. Hood and Mt. St. Helens are exceedingly dangerous volcanoes as well. If any one of the three were to erupt on a massive scale, it would instantly become the biggest news story of the year. *Mt. St. Helens* Many of my older readers remember the devastating eruption of Mt. St. Helens back in 1980 very well. This volcano is probably not as dangerous as Mt. Hood, and it is definitely not as dangerous as Mt. Rainier, but a full-blown eruption could still do an immense amount of damage to nearby communities. Over the past couple of months, there has been a very disturbing series of earthquakes at Mt. St. Helens, and just within the last 30 days there has been a total of 103 quakes. In this article, I am going to share with you a series of maps that come from the Pacific Northwest Seismic Network <https://www.pnsn.org/> via Google Earth. On this first map, you can see that the earthquake swarm that has been striking Mt. St. Helens in recent days is centered right at the core of the volcano… [image: Mt. St. Helens Today] <http://amzn.to/1NxfOqi> Scientists tell us that the reason for all of this activity at Mt. St. Helens is because the magma chamber is likely recharging <http://www.king5.com/tech/science/environment/quake-swarms-at-mount-st-helens-suggest-its-recharging-magma/177418768> … Multiple small earthquakes beneath the surface of Mount St. Helens the past two months suggest it may be recharging magma. These tiny quakes which started March 14 have been happening at a depth of two and seven kilometers — or 1.2 to four miles beneath the surface. Over the last eight weeks, there have been over 130 earthquakes formally located by the Pacific Northwest Seismic Network and many more too small to be located, says USGS <https://volcanoes.usgs.gov/observatories/cvo/>. The small earthquakes beneath the surface may suggest Mount St. Helens is recharging magma. The magma chamber is likely imparting its own stresses on the crust around and above it as the system slowly recharges. The pressure drives fluids through cracks, producing the small quakes, per USGS. *Mt. Hood* Mount Hood is located only about 50 miles away from Portland, Oregon, and it is one of the most dangerous volcanoes in America. Over the past 30 days, there have been 96 earthquakes at Mt. Hood, and most of them have been centered on the south side of the mountain. Why this is so alarming is because it was also the south side of Mt. St. Helens that violently exploded back in 1980. Here is a map which shows the recent activity at Mt. Hood… [image: Mt. Hood Today] <http://amzn.to/1NxgdZL> According to Wired <http://www.wired.com/2016/05/new-earthquake-swarm-rocking-mt-hood>, the majority of the earthquakes that are happening are at a depth of between 3 and 5 kilometers, and this could be a sign that magma is ascending… Right now, the earthquake swarm at Mt. Hood is centered <http://kval.com/news/local/swarm-of-small-earthquakes-at-mt-mount-hood-quakes> just to the south of the main edifice (see below) and most of the earthquakes are between 3 and 5 kilometers below the surface. This is likely the zone where magma is being staged as it ascends from its source. *Mount Rainier* There haven’t been quite as many earthquakes at Mt. Rainier over the past 30 days – only 37 – but without a doubt it is potentially more dangerous than either Mt. Hood or Mt. St. Helens because it sits so close to major population centers. On the map below, you can see that the recent earthquake activity at Mt. Rainier has been centered directly along the core of the volcano… [image: Mt. Rainier Today] <http://amzn.to/1so1Ug9> For a long time, I have been warning about the apocalyptic consequences that a major eruption of Mt. Rainier would have. For example, here is an excerpt from one of my previous articles <http://theeconomiccollapseblog.com/archives/earth-changes-in-2016-how-to-get-prepared-for-the-coming-earthquakes-and-volcanic-eruptions> … Mt. Rainier has been dubbed a “time bomb <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Me_s0b-w7FY>“, “the most dangerous mountain in the United States <http://old.seattletimes.com/special/helens/story3.html>” and “one of the most dangerous volcanoes in the world <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mount_Rainier>” because it sits so close to Seattle, Tacoma and other major cities along the coast of Washington state. In the event of a full-blown eruption, countless numbers of people would literally be buried alive in a tsunami of super-heated mud. These tsunamis of super-heated mud are known as “lahars”, and scientists believe that Mt. Rainier is capable of producing lahars that could move at speeds of up to 50 miles per hour <http://www.kentreporter.com/news/225534662.html#>. I am so convinced that an eruption of Mt. Rainier is in our future that I even put one in my novel <http://amzn.to/1TaoKOC>. My wife and I once lived out near Seattle for about a year, and we know very well that Mt. Rainier looms in the distance as an ever-present reminder of the major disaster that is coming someday. In the photo below, you can see how this extremely dangerous volcano is clearly visible from the central part of Seattle… [image: Mt. Rainier From Seattle] <http://amzn.to/1Nxhik9> It is hard to even describe the death and destruction that we could potentially witness during a full-blown eruption of Mt. Rainier. According to Wikipedia <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mount_Rainier>, super-heated mud from Mt. Rainier could potentially even “destroy parts of downtown Seattle”… If Mt. Rainier were to erupt as powerfully as Mount St. Helens <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mount_St._Helens> did in its May 18, 1980, eruption, the effect would be cumulatively greater, because of the far more massive amounts of glacial ice locked on the volcano <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volcano> compared to Mount St. Helens[33] <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mount_Rainier#cite_note-Crandall-33> and the vastly more heavily populated areas surrounding Rainier.[38] <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mount_Rainier#cite_note-38> Lahars <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lahars> from Rainier pose the most risk to life and property,[39] <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mount_Rainier#cite_note-39> as many communities lie atop older lahar deposits. According to the United States Geological Survey <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Geological_Survey> (USGS), about 150,000 people live on top of old lahar deposits of Rainier.[8] <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mount_Rainier#cite_note-Driedger-8> Not only is there much ice atop the volcano, the volcano is also slowly being weakened by hydrothermal activity. According to Geoff Clayton, a geologist with a Washington State Geology firm, RH2 Engineering, a repeat of the Osceola mudflow would destroy Enumclaw <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enumclaw,_Washington>, Orting <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orting,_Washington>, Kent <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kent,_Washington>, Auburn <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Auburn,_Washington>, Puyallup <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Puyallup,_Washington>, Sumner <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sumner,_Washington> and all of Renton <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Renton,_Washington>.[32] <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mount_Rainier#cite_note-parchman-32> Such a mudflow might also reach down the Duwamish <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duwamish_River> estuary and destroy parts of downtown Seattle <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Downtown,_Seattle,_Washington>, and cause tsunamis <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tsunami> in Puget Sound <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Puget_Sound> and Lake Washington <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lake_Washington>.[40] <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mount_Rainier#cite_note-AL-40> Rainier is also capable of producing pyroclastic flows <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyroclastic_flow> and expelling lava. Scientists assure us that someday Mt. Rainier will experience another massive eruption, and it will be an apocalyptic event unlike anything the northwest United States has ever experienced before. Let us just hope and pray that we have a lot more time until that happens, because nobody should ever want to witness death and destruction on that scale. Unfortunately, the crust of our planet is becoming increasingly unstable, and the west coast of our country sits directly along the Ring of Fire. It is only a matter of time until a major seismic event strikes, and it may be a lot sooner than a lot of people think. **About the author: Michael Snyder is the founder and publisher of End Of The American Dream.

Recently, I was asked to describe what we are watching happen to our nation. After thinking about it, I have come to the conclusion that it is almost as if a “cloud of insanity” has descended upon the United States and much of the rest of the western world. From our top leaders on down, people are engaged in incredibly self-destructive behavior and are making extremely irrational decisions. Some would describe it as being given over to a depraved mind, and I would have to agree. It is almost as if some sort of severe form of mental illness were rapidly spreading through the air and infecting everyone. Virtually every day I am immersed in news and current events, and it can be difficult to shock me after all this time. But lately, there have been quite a few stories that have stunned even me. The following are a few of those stories… *#1* A 27-year-old woman in Maryland is hoping to “normalize naked breasts <http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3591606/It-s-taking-ownership-body-really-powerful-Maryland-woman-seeks-normalize-naked-breasts-spending-time-bare-chested-public.html>” by running around in public without any clothing on the upper half of her body. So far she says that she has not been arrested and no men have tried to touch her inappropriately. *#2* It is being reported that “sex roulette parties <http://metro.co.uk/2016/05/16/people-are-having-sex-roulette-parties-where-one-person-secretly-has-hiv-5885625/>” are becoming increasingly popular in the western world. The concept behind these parties is that there is someone in attendance that is secretly HIV positive, and everyone engages in unprotected sex with others in the room without knowing who that particular individual is. *#3* The obsession with body art in the western world is officially getting out of control. A couple of the hottest trends right now among those that are into “body modification” are to tattoo your eyeballs <http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/features/7084150/I-tattooed-my-eyeballs-and-had-my-tongue-split-in-two-Woman-30-reveals-her-obsession-with-body-modification.html> and split your tongue <http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/features/7084150/I-tattooed-my-eyeballs-and-had-my-tongue-split-in-two-Woman-30-reveals-her-obsession-with-body-modification.html> . *#4* A Catholic archbishop from St. Louis recently testified in court that he “wasn’t sure whether he knew it was illegal for priests to have sex with children <http://www.mprnews.org/story/2014/06/09/archbishop-carlson-deposition>“. *#5* All over the nation, colleges and universities are holding workshops and events to promote “polyamory” as “an acceptable lifestyle choice <http://dailycaller.com/2016/05/02/across-country-universities-look-to-mainstream-polyamory/>” to our young people. According to Wikipedia <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyamory>, polyamory is “the practice of, or desire for, intimate relationships involving more than two people, with the knowledge and consent of everyone involved.” *#6* With each passing year, the level of debt slavery in this country gets even worse. The average American household with debt now owes approximately $131,000 <http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3592106/Indebted-Americans-owe-staggering-131-000-household-spent-6-000-year-study-shows.html> and is paying out about $6,000 a year in interest <http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3592106/Indebted-Americans-owe-staggering-131-000-household-spent-6-000-year-study-shows.html> . *#7* A dangerous form of synthetic marijuana is popping up in many American cities these days, and it sends many of the users into zombie-like states <http://www.fox13news.com/news/local-news/109890221-story>… Investigators in Clearwater described a scene out of The Walking Dead; people slumped over in such a stupefied state they could hardly move or speak. It was a patrol becoming too routine in Crest Lake Park as officers respond to a growing number of Spice, or synthetic marijuana, overdose calls. Police say dozens of calls have come in for people who have had to be rushed to the hospital because of suspected Spice use. Tampa medical and law enforcement professionals warned last week about a dangerous uptick in overdoses possibly linked to a bad batch of the drug. Clearwater investigators aren’t ruling out a connection to the Tampa cases. *#8* According to some progressives, identifying yourself as an “American” is now considered to be a “microaggression” <http://www.infowars.com/uva-student-identifying-as-american-is-a-microaggression/> and should be avoided because it might offend minority groups. *#9* Even though we can see what socialism has done to Venezuela <http://theeconomiccollapseblog.com/archives/watch-venezuela-because-food-shortages-looting-and-economic-collapse-are-coming-to-america-too>, North Korea and dozens of other failed regimes throughout history, young Americans are embracing it with gusto. In fact, one survey recently found that a majority of American young adults under the age of 30 say that they completely reject capitalism <http://theeconomiccollapseblog.com/archives/the-future-of-america-more-than-half-of-all-u-s-adults-under-age-30-now-reject-capitalism> . *#10* The Obama administration has just issued new “guidelines” that require public schools all across America “to allow transgender students to use the restroom and locker rooms that correspond to their chosen gender <http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2016/05/16/transgender-bathroom-rule-matter-dignity-obama-says/84460430/>“. So 55 years after President John F. Kennedy declared that we would put men on the moon, Barack Obama is declaring that we will put men somewhere else where they have never been before… [image: Political Correctness Obama And Kennedy] <http://amzn.to/1XgECUY> *#11* One anonymous member of Congress identified only as “Congressman X <http://endoftheamericandream.com/archives/member-of-congress-its-far-easier-than-you-think-to-manipulate-a-nation-of-naive-self-absorbed-sheep>” is making waves by putting out a new book that explains what really goes on behind the scenes in Washington. The New York Post <http://nypost.com/2016/05/13/were-running-a-f-ing-casino-politician-tells-all-in-manifesto/> has published some new quotes from this book, and a couple of them are quite stunning… Congress is too polarized and partisan to get anything done, by the congressman’s account. “There seems to be a complete disintegration of confidence in government. A fear that government is its own special interest,” he says. “*America’s on an irreversible decline and no one in Washington seems to care . . .* ” When even members of the U.S. Congress start admitting that our nation is in “an irreversible decline”, you know that the party is just about over. *#12* When you look up the term “corrupt politician” in the dictionary, photographs of Bill and Hillary Clinton should be right there. Bill has a history of well documented sexual escapades that goes back for decades <http://endoftheamericandream.com/archives/is-bill-clinton-a-sexual-predator-or-just-a-sex-addict>, and both of them should be serving long prison sentences for a shocking series of horrible crimes that goes all the way back to the 1970s. But the American people are willingly ignoring all of this, and if the election were to be held today it is almost certain that Hillary Clinton would be the next president of the United States. Ultimately, we get the leaders that we deserve, and I am not just talking about the White House. If you look at Congress today, they very much reflect who we are as a nation, and it isn’t a pretty picture. One of the big reasons why there is so much craziness in America today is because there is no longer a shared set of values or morals that unites us. You would like to think that we should all be able to at least agree on the U.S. Constitution, but in law school I learned that courts routinely ignore the Constitution whenever it suits them. In fact, we might as well not even have a Constitution anymore because hardly anyone in the legal community takes it seriously these days. Without any foundation to stand on, it is inevitable that our nation will crumble. The widespread insanity that we are witnessing is simply the acceleration of a process of decay that has been in motion for decades. I would like to think that we could turn things around, but at this point I am not very optimistic. What about you? Do you think that there is hope for the future of America?
