What is most likely is the effect HAARP has on the magnetic fields of the Earth. By manipulating these magnetic fields in the outer atmosphere the repercussions will extend towards the Earth's core. By causing alterations in the natural magnetic forces within the Earth it introduce external stresses to the tectonic plates and induce earthquakes. The scientific field of seismicelectromagnitism is exploring this relationship and has identified links between the ionosphere and earthquakes. Lin [22] in a research article concluded "Principle Component Analysis was able to discriminate clear ionospheric total electron content anomalies in the months when all 18 earthquakes occurred, and such anomalies existed earlier than this 5-day statistical window.", with evidence of these anomalies found up to 11 days before an earthquake. Pulinets [23] in another paper summarises "The main and probably most important conclusion lies in the fact that the level of our present knowledge of ionospheric precursors of earthquake permits us to use them already in short term earthquake prediction".

HAARP is capable of heating the ionosphere in a localized and focused manner.
The ionosphere has been noted to heat up in a localized and focused manner prior to some earthquakes. Japan '11(pdf) is an example of a focused heating/disturbing of the ionosphere above the epicenter.
Therefore HAARP could potentially create earthquakes! So you have a link between HAARP and Earthquakes - The ionosphere disturbances which is caused by both. This isn't my opinion, but my take on the average attempt at connecting the two.

Nope, if you read my post I stated this seems to be the general train of thought behind those who have claimed they can cause earthquakes. I was by no means personally claiming that was my logic, but that which I've seen in others. It's at the end of your quote of my post.
Reading before responding can help sometimes.

The ABC example does outline the logic behind the theory in an elementary way. How you compare it to bad curry sounds silly however and this is an effective debunking tactic.
