The Venezuelan führer did not say that Haiti's earthquake was caused by the US, or its "earthquake weapons". However, articles containing information about a so called "experimental earthquake", caused by the USA according to "Russian sources" were published in five propaganda outlets of the Chavez regime, see below. Therefore, I reckon reports saying that Chavez said so, although not exactly accurate, can be forgiven in light of the stuff published by official Venezuelan "information" outlets.

Okay, mea culpa.
I have updated my post on this topic to distinguish Chavez from the actions of his regime.

I insist on accuracy too Alek.
Hope you are well.

Well, there's certainly no shortage of insanities coming from Chavez, so there's no need to attribute to him things that he has not said. Having said, I find fascinating that some of the most important chavista disinformation outlets ran the story, including MINCI. More than appalling, it's a pathetic demonstration of the sort of people running the show...
