| BBC: Why did Diego Garcia Escape Tsunami???? |
| 2005-01-17 |
| The comments section on this 'article' is amusing.. Following the tsunami, conspiracy rumours have been circulating on the internet of how the US base at Diego Garcia managed to avoid casualties while other islands suffered huge losses. The US Navy's official Diego Garcia website said the island wasn't hit by the devastating tsunami because it is surrounded by deep waters and the grade of its shores does not allow for tsunamis to build before hitting land. The site said the earthquake generated a tidal surge on the island estimated at six feet. Let us know what you think. Is this just anti-US sentiment on the web or something more worrying? |
