hmm......if a tree has no roots, how can it grow quickly and bear
fruit?? It cannot even grow into a tree.....it will die off when it
is just a tiny sapling.....than again....sapling also has
roots....albeit tiny ones.....enough to support the
sapling.......tokking kok again... 
In any case.....the Arabs who this chap belong to, have been so
called "civilised" much longer than the Europeans and look at them
......still holding on to a backward religious belief about killing
other "infidels" in support of thier religion.
USA is a huge country surrounded by the biggest oceans in the world
on both sides.......Pacific and Atlantic oceans. Imagine if a
tsunami strikes USA on both sides as predicted by this Silwadi
chap.....the epicentre that create such a tsunami on both oceans
will cause a rippling effect of 360 degrees, am i right? No ripple
effect can go in only one direction, it has to be 360
degrees.
That would mean, a tsunami on both oceans would not only have a
devastating effect not only on the US continent..but also all
countries and land mass bordering the Pacific and Alantic
oceans.
So when that happens, who's gonna buy most of their oil?? Right
now, it's USA, China, Japan and most countries bothering these
oceans. And if they can't sell a lot of their oil, [cannot sell oil
is as good as no oil.....no income as they rely heavily on oil
income] they will also become extinct... no brainer just becos of
skewed belief of their religion! 
Anyway......2007 is half gone.......if the prediction holds true
before 2007 ends, I don't have to worry about the future......GST,
tax, over population etc, we won't have any future....probably died
in the biggest tsumani the world have ever seen!!
