It seems that the violence that is going around in the world has somehow also permeated the Earth's surface and a lot of violent activity is taking place these days underneath as well. Vibrations then cause the entire planet to quiver. The latest is in Balochistan, a province of Pakistan that borders with Iran and Afghanistan where scores of people have died due to an earthquake.
