1. The total energy budget of the University of Alaska's HAARP instrument (a truckload of ordinary heating oil) is less than a billionth of the energy released in the earthquake.
2. Electromagnetic energy weakens as the square of the distance over which it is sent. The HAARP instrument never created lightning strokes in Alaska at full power. Going 12,000 miles away to Turkey would weaken that energy by a factor of 144,000,000. So something it couldn't do in Alaska is 144 million times less possible in Turkey.
3. Lenticular clouds are made by strong winds passing over mountains. Aviators learn to climb above them because the strong winds can endanger passengers and crew by turbulence.
4. The wind is too weak to cause an earthquake deep in the ground. So the co-occurrence of some bad weather and an earthquake are a problem for quake survivors and rescue workers but did not cause the quake.
5. Irresponsible people who keep repeating the same lie have become the biggest obstacle to justice and peace. If nobody settles what the facts are, continued repetition of lies promotes fear and hatred and diverts people away from considering the truth.
6. The theological truth is that we ignorant humans take it upon ourselves to judge God Almighty and blame Him for allowing bad things to happen to good people. We have no authority to do this because God is in charge and we are not. We can beg God for mercy by praying but that does not give us power to compel God to do as we wish. The goofball theories that falsely accuse temporal people for bad things that happen, are simply a stand-in for the real anger, which is the anger that God won't let us be His boss. We lack the capacity to make God's decisions for Him so our anger over what was God's will at any time, does not justify our disobedience to Him. That anger and that willingness to believe lies is a direct cause of our fallen state as Sinners. We show anger and mistrust to our fellow humans because of our anger toward God. We pass up the chance to learn truths when we waste our time repeating lies, and that's a waste.
Repetition of a lie does not make it true.
