    Mass fatalities feared in building collapse in heavily Orthodox area near Miami

    June 24, 2021 9:26 am

    (JTA) — Jewish emergency response services are participating in a search-and-rescue mission after a 12-story apartment building collapsed in Surfside, Florida, a heavily Orthodox town near Miami Beach.

    At least one person has been killed in the collapse, which took place without warning at about 2 a.m., and authorities in Surfside say they fear many more fatalities. The building, part of a complex called Champlain Towers, is home to year-round residents rather than people who move there from colder climates for the winter.

    Hatzalah of South Florida, an Orthodox ambulance service, has established a command center at the collapse site, according to a tweet posted early Thursday by Chevra Hatzalah, the service covering New York City.
    Nearly half of Surfside’s roughly 6,000 residents are Orthodox Jews, many associated with the Hasidic Chabad Lubavitch movement, which established a presence in the area in the 1980s. WhatsApp groups with many Orthodox Jews who have ties to the area buzzed Thursday with concerns about community members. Some listed names of people understood to be missing.
    The collapsed building is on Collins Avenue, one mile south of The Shul, an Orthodox synagogue where last week Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis signed bills granting new privileges to Hatzalah of South Florida and creating a daily moment of silence in Florida schools.

    Did this building, or someone in it, cross the Klintons?

    Hmmm.....

    Address is 8777 Collins

    https://www.biblestudy.org/bibleref/...bible/777.html

    Seven Levitical priests, on the seventh day they and others circled Jericho, blew their seven trumpets each of the seven times they journeyed around the city (Joshua 6:4, 15 - 16). When the seventh circuit ended, the people shouted at Jericho's wall and it miraculously came tumbling down! The Israelites then decimated all human and animal life within the city except for Rahab [d21: bloodline of Jesus] and her family (Joshua 6:21 - 25).
    Much significance to the 777 number explained in the link. Obvious similarities to 911 WTC and current numbers broadcast across all media is 99 11 1. 911 was loaded with occultist numbers and symbolism and essentially marked the start of a new era. There's something more going on here than just a random building collapse imo.


    (reminds of the Jericho tv show... and 777 could point to 7-14-21....777777...Boeing 777X also in news recently, Cyber Polygon scheduled to start week before on 7-9)

    Sinkhole? Bad roof condition causing leaks which cause the rebar to corrode?

    Could the weakening of the structure been related to the shockwave test of that new aircraft carrier?

    I read there was one lady who heard rumbling during the night and got her dog and left before the building collapsed. Sounds to me like something weakened, then gave way.

    Sinkhole makes sense. And possibly shoddy construction.

    Expert on Foxnews found the fall shocking and suggested could be sinkhole related:

    FDNY veteran who responded to both World Trade Center terror attacks weighs in on Miami collapse rescue effort


    The Champlain Towers South apartment building collapsed near Miami Thursday morning

    By Michael Ruiz | Fox News

    Surfside mayor provides updates on building collapse on 'Tucker Carlson Tonight'
    Mayor Charles Burkett joins 'Tucker Carlson Tonight' with update on tragic collapse.

    The fact that rescuers heard banging sounds from beneath the collapsed Champlain Towers South apartment building in Surfside, Fla., just outside Miami, is a good sign that they may yet find additional survivors, according to a former FDNY member who responded to both terror attacks on the World Trade Center in New York City.
    "The key to survival is whether or not there's gonna be what we call voids," said Vincent Pickford, a retired FDNY lieutenant and expert on confined space rescue operations. "What they're looking for are pieces of the building that kind of land at right angles to each other so that it creates spaces where people could survive."
    To find them, rescuers deploy sonar equipment in a perimeter around the fallen structure, he said. The devices communicate with one another to help locate possible survivors and send audio to a human operating the equipment.

    (Reliable News Media)
    And if there are no other explanations for the banging sounds, then they are good signs that survivors are trapped in those voids and trying to attract the attention of rescuers, who use sonar equipment to try and locate victims within the rubble, he said.

    "If you think you have people, you're gonna keep this a rescue operation, and you're going to see selected debris remove, nothing big, but if we get this slab out of the way, it might open up a tunnel that we could then maybe get to some people," he said.

    Video of the collapse shows two wings of the building give way – seemingly from the bottom up.
    Pickford said it could have been from a sinkhole or something unstable underground, but investigators have not yet determined what caused the high rise to fall.
    "Buildings like this do not fall in America," Surfside Mayor Charles Burkett told Fox News’ Tucker Carlson Thursday night. "This is a third-world phenomenon, and it’s shocking."

    Israel will send aid to Miami, said Prime Minister Natali Bennett on Friday afternoon, following the building collapse on Thursday morning. Currently it has been confirmed that at least one person was found dead and over 99 people have yet to be accounted for, many of them Jews. In his tweet Bennet wrote that "we are following with concern the difficult images that are coming out from Florida.Our Foreign Ministry representatives in Miami and Israel are doing everything possible to assist and address the situation.

    The entire nation of Israel prays for the safety of those injured and missing in the disaster. From here we send support to our brethren in the Jewish community in particular, and to all Florida residents in general, and express our sorrow during this tragic event."

    There is nothing to fear from globalism, free trade and a single worldwide currency, but a globalism where free trade is competitively subsidized by each nation, a continuous trade war is dictated by the WTO, and the single currency is pure fiat, fear is justified. That type of globalism is destined to collapse into economic despair, inflationism and protectionism and managed by resurgent militant nationalism.

    ‘It looks like a bomb hit’: Video shows moment condo building collapsed near Miami Beach

    WFLA 8 On Your Side Staff
    Jun 25, 2021 / 04:45 AM EDT

    An oceanfront condo building partially collapsed in Surfside early Thursday morning, leaving at least one person dead and dozens injured.

    Security camera video captured by Andy Slater showed the building fall to the ground in a cloud of dust and debris.

    ‘Real castastrophe’: Massive search and rescue underway after oceanfront condo collapses near Miami Beach
    “I just can’t put into words, it looks like a bomb hit, it looks like something in one of these ‘Third World’ countries that just literally collapsed, like a pancake straight down, and there’s just an incredible pile of rubble,” one witness told NBC 6.
    “The building has literally pancaked, it has gone down, and I mean there’s just feet in between stories where there were 10 feet,” Surfside Mayor Charles Burkett said. “That is heartbreaking because it doesn’t mean to me that we’re gonna be as successful as we would want to be to find people alive.”

    If they say the building has been sinking since the 1990's it seems it would be a sinkhole. I'm wondering if that was disclosed to the people buying those because I would think at the price they are you would want something safer.

    HOA was probably covering it up. You'd think someone would get sued. I’d wager the builder no longer exists.
