I was looking at some of the close up satellite photo's of the damage with the aircraft photo's of the over all damage. Everything is distoryed in area's. In also looking at overall satelitte shows that a large area of landfall went under water.

This damage looks as bad as the Tsunumi on December 26th. Do you agree or disagree?


Some of these will Amaze you,

Yes, it is quite comparable to some of the worst Tsunami damage. It is, however, not as large in scope as the Tsunami.

It is also similar to the damage that would be experienced a couple miles from the detonation of a 200kt warhead. Minus the firestorm, of course.
