Is there truth in the rumour the tragedy in haiti was caused by a weapon, as reported on tv?
Yet another conspiricy theory to add to the list!
There seem to be a few 'blog' entries about this, from 'concerned' people - mayhaps there's a hidden agenda by these people trying to discredit the US?
First of all the HAARP project is a research project - "Its purpose is to investigate the ionosphere and establish whether some of its properties can be used for communication or surveillance purposes."

I do not know where people get this nonsense notion about a weapon. This tremor was picked up all over the world and registered as an earthquake when it happened. A second one was detected this morning with a strength of 6.1. Haiti is still getting aftershocks.
THOSE WHO BELIEVE THIS OVER ESTIMATE OUR POWER OVER MOTHER NATURE. DON'T YOU THINK A WEAPON OF THAT MAGNITUDE WOULD PRODUCE SOME AFTER AFFECTS, SUCH AS RADIATION OR OTHER RESIDUES? COME ON FOLKS, THE HISTORY OF THE OPPRESSION OF BLACKS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE TRAGEDY THAT NATION IS GOING THROUGH. I UNDERSTAND OPPRESSION. WHEN I GOT HOME FROM THE SERVICE AS A SERVICE CONNECTED DISABLED VET I WAS TOLD" THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE, NOW GET BACK ON YOUR RESERVATION" THAT WAS NOT 100 OR 1000 YEARS AGO, NOT EVEN 50 YEARS AGO. HOW ABOUT YOU MISS TRUELY? EVER BEEN FORCED TO GO WHERE YOU DON'T WANT, ESPECIALLY AFTER FIGHTING FOR FREEDOM??

I normally stay away from the religion threads and subjects of controversy, but Pat Robertson's claim that the Earthquake is punishment from God on the Haiti people because they made a 'Pact with the Devil" is insane!!!!!!! http://www.nowpublic.com/world/pat-robe … 56010.htmlIf...

I find it very disconcerting that I could come on here at this point in time and see threads about Sarah Palin, the use of technology and fashion trends, but not a mention about the people in Haiti.Please let's get our priorities straight and take a moment out of our day to pray for them -- or...

Just on the news is that Laura Silsby is finally home. Not sure how much of this was in the national news, but Silsby was the leader of a group that went to Haiti, collect some 33 children and tried to take them into the neighboring Dominican Republic without any government permission. ...
