How is it possible every nation in the Antarctic treaty has held up their end of the deal? No oil exploration? Nothing? Seriously? Why does John Kerry keep going there? He may be a Globalist climate radical, but seriously? He's not a scientist! Why is every thing these people have done exactly like Nazis? Even down to medical experimentation?Where did those 43,000 german women who were shipped to Antarctica at the end of WWII go? Is it possible we are actually dealing with the 4th Reich? Did Nazis really escape to Antarctica? Why can't a plane traverse it? Why are all plane paths set to completely avoid it? Environmental reasons? For real? If you believe that, I've got a bridge to sell you! What is our reality? WHO or WHAT is in Antarctica?

If there was an "Atlantis", it was most likely the area that is now the South China Sea. The South China sea is strange - average depth of 150 feet, which would have been 250 feet above sea level during the ice age.
11,000 years ago, that was a sub-continent sized isthmus that would have been one of the best places to live during the ice age climate. Warm, with a good amount of precipitation.
As the planet warmed up at the start of our current inter-glacial period (Holocene), that sub continent flooded. There is a reason that all ancient civilizations contain some sort of flood mythology in common.
Does a cup filled to the brim with water and ice overflow when the ice melts? Or does the resulting water from the melted ice just reoccupy the space that previously held the ice?
The earth as a system is very much like the glass of water with the ice. If there was a flood, it definitely wasn’t from ice melting.
That doesnt take into account the ice and claciera that are over land that melt and fill into the ocean. If an icecube is on a shelf above a glass of water and the icecube melts and trickles into that water cup, does the water level not rise?
Except, to be more accurate, you're talking about an icecube on a shelf above an olympic sized pool.
It doesn't rise.
Stop falling for the lies.
Don't know the math behind it... just throwing out some numbers I do know.
70% of earth is covered in water.
If I make a toooootally swag guess that 70% of the land is dry so only 30% of 30% would be 9% of land has ice on top of it....
Personally... I just don't see massive sea level changes from it...
here is a site that has some data on it... don't know if they are libtards or conservatives...

I am not sure how you can say "definitely wasn't" about anything that happened 12,000 years ago. If you haven't looked into Randall Carlson's and Graham Hancock's writings on geological evidence of massive catastrophic flooding then I highly recommend them.
*see the Bible
You are talking about sea ice. Continental ice sheets approx. 1 mile thick covered much of the northern hemisphere. Seal level was 400 feet lower than it is today due to all the water locked up in the glaciers on land.
The land bridge between Asia and North America, and the subcontinent that became the South China Sea are two areas of land that flooded when the continental glaciers melted and sea level rose 400 feet (over time).
This is true but not a full comparison, the earth's crust rebounds after the weight of ice (think continental ice shelf) and that melt water has to go somewhere else. The Hudson Bay is a good example of crustal rebounding
Depends. If the meltwater came from ice which, itself, was floating (think North Pole), then I agree.
If the meltwater came from iced-up bedrock (think Antarctica), then sea level must rise. Maybe, with pole-flipping, this is why sea level, globally, has been up and down like a whore's drawers on VE Day.
It might not have been the big island of Atlantis, but likely one of the 10 islands that Plato referred to. I don't think it's a stretch to say that the Sahara desert held several of these islands until the huge flood washed them away. Just look at the NW coast of Africa and notice the evidence for massive flooding from the west. There are striations all over the landscape that suggest floods ravaged the entire top half of Africa thousands of years ago. I think this is related to what Plato described.
Also, we learn that the earliest people to settle Egypt came from the west with skills necessary to build a civilization. After all, even Plato clearly said that the remnants of Atlantis laid where the Moorlands were in his time. The Moorlands are the lands of the Moors, or the region that now makes up NW Africa. It seems pretty clear to me.
I thought Plato said Atlantis was just past the straight of Gibraltar?
He said "beyond the pillars of Heracles (Hercules)"...yet everyone insists that he meant due west into the Atlantic Ocean. In my opinion, beyond could mean NW, W, SW, or any combination of those.
From Plato’s Critias -
“Now first of all we must recall the fact that 9000 is the sum of years since the war occurred (9,600 BC/11,600 years BP), as is recorded, between the dwellers beyond the pillars of Heracles and all that dwelt within them."
Poseidon “begat five pairs of twin sons and reared them up; and when he had divided all the island of Atlantis into ten portions, he assigned to the first-born of the eldest sons his mother’s dwelling and the allotment surrounding it, which was the largest and best; and him he appointed to be king over the rest, and the others to be rulers, granting to each the rule over many men and a large tract of country. And to all of them he gave names, giving to him that was eldest and king the name after which the whole island was called and the sea spoken of as the Atlantic, because the first king who then reigned had the name of Atlas.”
"So all these, themselves and their descendants, dwelt for many generations bearing rule over many other islands throughout the sea, and holding sway besides, as was previously stated, over the Mediterranean peoples as far as Egypt and Tuscany.”
From Plato’s Timaeus -
"The Egyptian priests explain that the ‘myth’ of Phaethon, son of Helios, driving his father’s chariot too close to the sun and burning up the earth, was no myth at all. “That story, as it is told, has the fashion of a legend, but the truth of it lies in the occurrence of a shifting of the bodies in the heavens which move round the earth, and a destruction of the things on the earth by fierce fire, which recurs at long intervals."
Even Herodotus mentions this in his famous "Histories" (450 BC/150 years after Solon learned of Atlantis and roughly 100 years before Plato famously wrote it down again) – After naming off several ‘tribes’ that span from Egypt to Mauritania, Herodotus eventually gets to the last of these people, the Atlantes. Right after describing the salt mountain called Atlas he says,
“The people is called Atlantes after the mountain. It is said that they neither eat anything that has life nor have any dreams.” And, “As far as this people, the Atlantes, I can tell the names of all who live on this brow; but from them onwards I can do so no more. But the brow goes on as far as the Pillars of Heracles and beyond them.”
I believe you can learn just about every subject there is just by studying Atlantis. Perhaps there should be an all-encompassing history course based on this. To truly understand it, you have to dive into history, geography, anthropology (cultural and physical), archaeology, astronomy, climatology, astrology, math, linguistics, and politics at the very least.
It's also interesting that the Germans came up with a word to describe the unique landscape of Africa in the early 1900's. "Inselberg" literally means "mountain island", describing the random pieces of land that rise out of the desert. I have to ask...why does everyone assume that islands have to be surrounded by water? Perhaps the 10 kingdoms of Atlantis were "islands" that dotted the Sahara at one time. Or maybe they were surrounded by water in the past, and all we see now are the remnants of a former ocean.
mudflood is the best theory imho
Or, there really was a global flood. The stories spread into the families as they spread around the world. The account in Genesis is the most accurate and all other versions have varying elements in common.
During the past 2,000,000 years, the Earth has been in an ice age.
Although there is no known written documentation of those long ago times, there should be no doubt that one generation passed along stories of their elders to the next generation. Stories get blown out of proportion over time, but the fundamental root of the story is likely true.
The Earth goes through a series of glacial and intergalcial periods during an ice age. We are currently in an interglacial period.
Stories of floods would be common because previous generations experienced such things and passed those stories down through the generations.
How could it be any other way?
He also said they'd find the Atlantis archives buried underneath the Sphinx. I think they've already found it and haven't told anyone. It turns out they've been digging under the Sphinx for quite some time now, and chambers have been discovered.
Something like these off Japan?

Solon was given the story of Atlantis while he was in Egypt around 600 BC. That story was passed on to Plato around 350 BC. Herodotus also mentions it around 440 BC, and many others have written about it since then. The Egyptian priests were clear that Atlantis was real, and that it existed 9,000 years before their time (9600 BC). They even said that Athenians were the first great civilization, 1,000 years older than even the Atlanteans, yet they were wiped out by a stronger army.
