The Question:

What’s behind the heightened attention world leaders are directing towards the polar region?

Background:

Prominent figures from all over the world have made pilgrimages to the frozen continent over the span of the last 2 years. Recent High-Profile Visitors include: Secretary of State John Kerry, Russian Orthodox Religious Leader – Kirill, 2nd Man on the Moon – Buzz Aldrin, NSA director James Clapper and President Obama. These trips are not well documented and people are becoming suspicious.

Antarctica is known to be somewhat of an otherworldly experience and has its natural beauty, but is that really why these people went there?

Our Investigation:

Sources that shall remain anonymous have revealed that there is in fact something going on there in Antarctica that certain powerful people wish to remain a secret. Our investigator has found a large hole bored into the ice that goes deep under the ice into the rock below.

This hole seems to be a ventilation shaft for a huge excavation underground.

After doing more research, it seems that the Illuminate are preparing for their survival after they have destroyed the habitability of the Earth above. The choice to use Antarctica comes from the fact that the ground below Antarctica is colder and more stable than any other continent. All the other continents are subject to earthquakes and volcanoes. Digging so deep into the Earth’s crust might weaken it to the point where a rupture could occur and the excavated city would be flooded with molten lava. Antarctica is the safest place for them to be.

Another factor in choosing this location is that it is remote enough that they can do the excavation work without anyone noticing! At least that’s what they thought! Thanks to our investigative reporter, we now know what is going on and it’s time to expose their plan so that everyone will have an equal chance to go there and survive.
