Wow, read through a few more of his pages and you get the sense that the guy makes even most tin-foil hat theorists look tame. Basically, he claims every major international earthquake in the last 20 years was planned by the Pentagon for a variety of unsavory purposes, mostly centered around "New Zionism". Wow.

From the site that ism linked:

Isn't it time to let bygones be bygones? Wow, talk about holding a grudge.
