Did U.S.'s HAARP cause Earthquake in Sichuan Province, China on May 12, 2008?
HAARP stands for High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program based in Gakona, Alaska. (Wikipedia)
"The June 5, 1977, New York Times described the great earthquake which destroyed Tangshan, China on July 28, 1976, and killed over 650,000 people:
'Just before the first tremor at 3:42 am, the sky lit up like daylight. The multi-hued lights, mainly white and red, were seen up to 200 miles away. Leaves on many trees were burned to a crisp and growing vegetables were scorched on one side, as if by a fireball.'" (excerpt found on Weather Weapon conspiracy theory web site)
Proof of a 1977 treaty on prohibiting "environmental modification" for hostile warfare purpose...on U.S. Department of State web site.
The Internet report claims China plans a retaliatory strike against U.S. for the attack on China through weather weaponry (scroll down below within the link)...
USA probably damaged China's morale as well as incurring large economic loss to show who's the boss. If you don't think this is plausible, watch the video clips below.
Note how "soft" the earthquake appears compared to "hard ripping" like California earthquakes in 1989 (S.F.) and 1994 (Northridge).
7.8 magnitutde Earthquake (7 min)
The rainbow clouds have nothing whatsoever to do with the earthquake, or HAARP for that matter. They are the result of light refraction through ice crystals in high-altitude cirrus cloud formations.
Over 600+ plus 6.0 magnitude or higher earthquakes reported since the 16th century, of those, 220 + have happened since 2001.
And many come in clusters, unlike quakes in the past centuries.

P.S. HAARP alters the ionosphere, not the earth's surface, causing weather patterns to get screwy.
Look up an article written back in 1996 by the US Air Force called, "Owning the Weather by 2025."
The earthquakes are more than likely some bizarre experiment with electro-magnetic waves.
The Russian experiment is called "Operation Woodpecker."

Be sure to click on the link that has the following quote:
"Others are engaging even in an eco-type of terrorism whereby they can alter the climate, set off earthquakes, volcanoes remotely through the use of electromagnetic waves. So there are plenty of ingenious minds out there that are at work finding ways in which they can wreak terror upon other nations. It's real, and that's the reason why we have to intensify our efforts, and that's why this is so important."
Secretary of Defense William Cohen 1997
Counterterrorism Conference
As far as I can recall, Operation Woodpecker was conceived as an over-the-horizon radar system.

What Secretary Cohen did not say in his 1997 remarks was that by "others" he meant Russia, with its "Operation Woodpecker," and the US, with its "High-Frequency Active Auroral Research Program" (HAARP).
Boss??? :)
I know you were repeating what the site said, but I've known about operation woodpecker for several decades, and all I've ever heard is what I said in the earlier comment. Maybe it has graduated from being an over-the-horizon radar system into a weather control mechanism. It certainly was equipped with radio transmitters of phenomenal power, which would be an essential ingredient.
As for HAARP triggering earthquakes, I reckon that is BS. I don't think the people making such claims or suggestions realise the amount of power released in even a small tremor, let alone a major quake like the Sichuan quake and its attendant aftershocks (1000's so far). It would take a hell of a lot more than HAARP can deliver to achieve that.
The Sichuan earthquake occurred on May 12, 2008 exactly 88 days before the start of the Bejing Olympics on 08/08/08!
There are HAARP installations interspersed around the globe - Gokona, Alaska, Pine Gap, Australia, Greenland, Norway, and most likely in the Falklands or on South Georgia in the Sandwich Islands. Supposedly on Cypress too.
Does anyone have any other verified transmitters? I'm trying to model how this thing works and I just don't have enough in the Southern Hemisphere.
The third Southern Transmitter has to be in the Pitcairn Islands. I think the did some kind of clearence on one of those Islands a few years back - the incestuous Mutiny on the bounty decendants.
Scientists Identified Earthquake Faults In Sichuan, China
ScienceDaily (May 19, 2008) — Only last summer research published by earth scientists in the international journal Tectonics concluded that geological faults in the Sichuan Basin, China "are sufficiently long to sustain a strong ground-shaking earthquake, making them potentially serious sources of regional seismic hazard."
An international team of scientists including Dr. Alexander Densmore (Institute of Hazard and Risk Research, Durham University), Dr. Mike Ellis (Head of Science for Climate Change at the British Geological Survey) and colleagues from research institutes in Chengdu, carefully mapped and analysed a series of geologically young faults that cross Sichuan Province like recently healed scars.
The team mapped the densely populated Sichuan Basin and adjacent mountains using what is known as 'tectonic geomorphology'. This technique can demonstrate significant changes in ground movement over time, such as observations of offset river channels, disrupted floodplains, abnormally shaped valleys and uplifted landscape features. These subtle signals of deformation, when combined with the ability to measure the age of the disfigured landscapes (using cosmogenic nuclides that bombard the Earth from all corners of the universe), produced surprising results.
The recent earthquake in Sichuan occurred under some of the steepest and most rugged mountains in the world, the Longmen Shan: the Dragon's Gate Mountains. This dramatic range, steeper than the Himalayas, is the upturned rim of the eastern edge of Tibet, a plateau that has risen to 5 km in response to the slow but unstoppable collision of India with Asia that began about 55 million years ago and which continues unabated today
Here is quote about depth from USGS
"Sometimes when depth is poorly constrained by available seismic data, the location program will set the depth at a fixed value. For example, 33 km is often used as a default depth for earthquakes determined to be shallow, but whose depth is not satisfactorily determined by the data, whereas default depths of 5 or 10 km are often used in mid-continental areas and on mid-ocean ridges since earthquakes in these areas are usually shallower than 33 km."
But I do believe HAARP can cause earthquakes.
Interesting coincidences:
12/26/03: Bam earthquake; 6.6 richter (Note: never name a city "bam" or "kaboom" or "kapow". You would be tempting fate. (Note note: Actually, this was an ancient city that looked really cool and 70,000 people died.))
12/26/04: Indian Ocean earthquake; 9.1 richter; resulting tsunamis kill 225,000. The longest lasting quake ever recorded: 10 minutes.
12/26/06: Hengchun earthquake; 7.1 richter;

"Stop judging by appearances, but judge justly."
I've seen lots of people say this, but none can provide even a modicum of science to back it up. I'm sceptical about such theories, precisely because of the lack of any underpinning scientific theory.
The only way I could see it happening is if the tectonic plates adjacent to the fault could in some way be made to resonate. To do that would require a knowledge of the unique resonant frequency of the plate at the fault. It would also require immense amount of energy, far more than HAARP could ever deliver.
An earthquake on the scale of Sichuan releases in the order of 45,000,000,000 megajoules of energy. It simply doesn't add up that it is possible to trigger that release with a 300megawatt shortwave transmitter. An underground nuclear explosion would be a far more plausible candidate, but even so, there is insufficient evidence to solidify that theory.
This is the STUPIDEST thing i have heard this week
Electromagnetic energy will NOT cause earthquakes.
I would try thinking for a while.

Excerpt from the New York World
Telegram, July 11, 1935 -
Nikola Tesla revealed that an earthquake which drew police and ambulances to the region of his laboratory at 48 E. Houston St., New York, in 1898, was the result of a little machine he was experimenting with at the time which "you could put in your overcoat pocket."
The bewildered newspapermen pounced upon this as at least one thing they could understand and "the father of modern electricity" told what had happened as follows:
"I was experimenting with vibrations. I had one of my machines going and I wanted to see if I could get it in tune with the vibration of the building. I put it up notch after notch. There was a peculiar cracking sound.
"I asked my assistants where did the sound come from. They did not know. I put the machine up a few more notches. There was a louder cracking sound. I knew I was approaching the vibration of the steel building. I pushed the machine a little higher. "Suddenly all the heavy machinery in the place was flying around. I grabbed a hammer and broke the machine. The building would have been about our ears in another few minutes. Outside in the street there was pandemonium.
"The police and ambulances arrived. I told my assistants to say nothing. We told the police it must have been an earthquake. That's all they ever knew about it."
Some shrewd reporter asked Dr. Tesla at this point what he would need to destroy the Empire State Building and the doctor replied: "Vibration will do anything. It would only be necessary to step up the vibrations of the machine to fit the natural vibration of the building and the building would come crashing down. That's why soldiers break step crossing a bridge."
He put his little vibrator in his coat-pocket and went out to hunt a half-erected steel building. Down in the Wall Street district, he found one&endash;ten stories of steel framework without a brick or a stone laid around it. He clamped the vibrator to one of the beams, and fussed with the adjustment until he got it.
Tesla said finally the structure began to creak and weave and the steel-workers came to the ground panic-stricken, believing that there had been an earthquake. Police were called out. Tesla put the vibrator in his pocket and went away. Ten minutes more and he could have laid the building in the street. And, with the same vibrator he could have dropped the Brookly Bridge into the East River in less than an hour.
"Mythbusters" set out to build and test Tesla's patented and legendary "earthquake machine", which weighed only six pounds. Tesla claimed he built one and attached it to a steel beam in his large building. He then tuned the machine, searching for a frequency of oscillation that would resonate with the steel structure. After a while he found the right frequency and the entire building started to quake violently. He had to take a hammer to the machine to get it to stop. Residents of the building evacuated and the police and fire department reported to the scene. The hosts of the show, who set out each week to, more or less, scientifically disprove common "myths" and legends, didn't follow the patent exactly and made two machines that didn't work. Then another guy built it and they finally had something that was producing results. A six pound, hand-held machine that was causing a massive steel beam to oscillate violently. They found a large steel bridge to test it on (I'm not sure which bridge it was, but it was massive). After tuning the machine extensively, they finally found a frequency that resonated with the structure and everything on the bridge was vibrating. A six pound machine was producing a rythmic vibration over a hundred feet from its location. They said it felt like a semi-truck was going by...constantly. Nevertheless, they "disproved the myth", because it didn't exactly cause an earthquake. Maybe not, but something else could.

..knows nothing about resonant frequencies, hmm?
Are USELESS on those without ego problems.
Tell me Grim what is the resonate freq. of the EARTH Hmmmm? Any tell from you on operational examples with some facts??
Stupidest Still.
And sheesh can we try just a BIT harder.

Over the years, I have read far more about HAARP, ionospheric heaters, and EMR effects than I have about any other topic, bar none.
I don’t subscribe to any of the wild theories about HAARP, (e.g. the ability to cause earthquakes) but the potential for bizarre uses is there. At least, HAARP provides fodder for sci-fi buffs. For example, the resonant EM frequencies of the earth-ionosphere cavity peak at various intervals (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schumann_resonance ) one of which is 7.8 hertz, the same frequency as the human brain’s “alpha rhythms.” This opens the door to amusing speculation about “planetary brainwaves,” and the possibility of using EMR to “entrain” mass populations. Crazy but fun.
You asked about verified transmitters other than the ones you listed. I presume you mean ionospheric heaters, not passive ionosondes, whose antennas are so numerous that they coat the planet like metallic fur. The University of Tokyo operates a heater. The Navy operates HIPAS near Fairbanks. There’s a heater near the Arecibo Observatory in Puerto Rico. Russia has the Sura ionospheric heating facility, in Vasilsursk near Nizhniy Novgorod. Also, when the U.S. lease on the air base in Manta Ecuador runs out in 2009, and the gringos are kicked out, the Chinese may take it over (President Correa has offered it to them). The Chinese have expressed an interest in building a heater there for equatorial research.
There’s a scarcity of info about heaters in the southern hemisphere. Surely they must exist, since the earth’s magnetosphere dips down in the Polar Regions, taking part of the ionosphere with it. (This makes heaters easier to use.) I would expect heaters to exist in South Africa and Argentina, but I cannot confirm this. Are you sure the NSA listening facility at Pine Gap has a heater?
The Super Dual Auroral Radar Network (SuperDARN) does not involve heaters, but its high frequency backscatter radar can affect the ionosphere. That is, its radars are more assertive that the ubiquitous ionosondes. The network includes eleven radars in the northern hemisphere, and seven in the southern hemisphere (Antarctica, New Zealand, and the Kerguelen Islands. See the wikipedia entry under “SuperDarn.”)
As far as all these gadgets being somehow linked by supercomputers in a global network, that was an early dream of HAARP enthusiasts, but it never came about. The real networks are in passive international monitoring of the ionosphere and the magnetosphere.
Could HAARP have caused the China quake? Well, its microwaves can boil a section of sky, but they’re nowhere near powerful enough to heat up sections of the earth’s crust, or cause it to resonate. ELF waves can totally penetrate the planet, but they’re not microwaves. HAARP could theoretically cause temporary radio blackouts over selected areas, and even cut a brief hole in the ionosphere, allowing the sun to fry the ground, but let’s remember that the sun itself hits the earth with zillions of times more energy than millions of HAARP transmitters could.
Still, it’s fun to speculate. Are there lines in the earth’s magnetic field that correspond to acupuncture “meridians” in the human body? Is the planet a kind of organism that can be treated with HAARP acupuncture? Okay, that’s absurd. How about zapping the ionosphere (boiling it with microwaves) enough to raise its altitude, such that the ionosphere causes drag on satellites in very low orbit? That’s happened a few times with solar storms.
Some people amuse themselves by dreaming of HAARP as a device for “mass mind control,” but television and the news media already accomplish total mind control, while international banks keep mankind enslaved by debt. These, plus the holo-hoax, add up to absolute mass control. You can put on your tin foil hat and talk about mind control rays, but if you REALLY want to be seen as a nut-job, try talking to average Americans about the zionist plague. That’s truly the stuff of science fiction.
Except it’s not fiction.
I have no idea what to make of this, but it just showed up out of China, says there was a nuclear explosion in Sichuan on the 12th.
If so, you called it Sullivan.
