Chavez media-cong claim US military CAUSED Haitian quake.
2010-01-20
Ok, Halliburton-Mysterious Conspiracy Division, 'fess up.
El Diario Exterior is reporting:
Both a Venezuelan state-owned radio and television properties zeroed in on a secret U.S. "weapon of earthquakes" as the cause of the earthquake that struck Haiti last week causing a death toll could exceed 200,000 according to some sources. On the website of Radio Nacional de Venezuela (RNV) are published statements of the university professor, Vladimir Acosta, a regular contributor to the media controlled by the government of Hugo Chavez, accusing the U.S. of wanting to make Haiti a protectorate under the guise of the natural disaster.
VLADIMIR Acosta? But of course.
But to further the conspiracy theory, argued that "we have the worrisome suspicion that this earthquake may be associated with the project called HAARP, a system that can generate violent and unexpected changes in climate." ...
Newsflash, Vlad the Prevaricator, earthquakes are not a climatic phenomenon. Obviously a snowstorm would cause a lot of disruption in Haiti, but that isn't what happened.
According to the channel Vive, a report from the Russian Northern Fleet "would indicate that the earthquake that devastated Haiti was the 'clear results' of a test of the U.S. Navy through one of its 'weapons of earthquakes'" . As published on this Venezuelan public media site, it is "more than likely" that the U.S. Navy had "full knowledge" of harm that "this earthquake test could potentially have on Haiti and had pre-positioned their Southern Command Officer, Gen. PK Keen, on the island to oversee relief efforts if needed."*

It boggles the mind but the Chavista Media-Cong appear to be even dumber than our own (MSNBC, AP) or even the Euro version, (Reuters etc).
By the way, HAARP stands for High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program (image above). Scientists in Alaska plan to zap the ionosphere occasionally as part of a program to improve the operation of satellite and other broadcast communication systems -- allegedly. Conspiracy theorists - not all of whom are Chavistas - have other ideas.
Anti-HAARP agitation has been a staple of batshit commercial conspiracy goebbelism for decades. An excellent 1985 Kiwi sci-fi production, The Quiet Earth, referenced a similar project as the cause for most of the world's population disappearing in a literal flash.

(Speaking of flashes, the film includes a good one of Alison Routledge's then-shapely backside.)

#4  Broadly speaking, as a dedic MADONNA FAN I may have to agree wid HUGO on this one, iff only on principle andor engineering innovationism, plus below.

1960's - early 1970's GUAM TAOTAMONA VISITATIONS [ancestral Spirits-Ghosts]> as per FUTURE TIME, warned iff the US weakens and begins to geopol = militarily withdraw from the Asia-Pacific regions, they will chose to covertly destroy strategic Pacific islands via implanted underground nukes-weaps [Quake/Fault weaps] in order to deny usage to enemies [aka AREA-THEATER-STRATEGIC DENIAL].

E.G. > The desired future OWG-NWO have until 2029-2036 to work together and perfect their COLLECTIVE MATH CALCS + WEAPS SYS, ETC. to prevent or preclude SMALL ROCK COMET APOPHIS FROM SLAMMING INTO THE BIG ROCK MOON + SENDING SAME BACK TOWARD EARTH.

DITTO AS TO CHANGING CIRCUMSTANCES SO THAT THE USA WON'T HAVE TO DESTROY ANY APCIFIC ISLANDS AT ALL.

Or do MADONNA FANS + OUR KIDDIES/DESCENDANTS have to do it???

#2  If we could cause earthquakes anywhere we wanted to, don't you think we would have hit Caracas or Havana?

Nah, San Francisco.
Oh, wait a minute.
