If Chemtrails And HAARP Didn’t Disturb You Enough, Wait Until You Hear About Morgellons …

For those unaware what chemtrails are, I will do my best to give you an accuratebreakdown of how I found out about them and what I’ve learned since.  I will also include some health remedies that I’ve come across which may be of some use.
Around October of 2009 I heard that ourgovernment was spraying us with chemicals from airplanes.  I should haveimmediately investigated further but I didn’t investigate further for a long time (many months later).
Why?  Many reasons, not least because I was consuming high levels of fluoride and my diet was basically, “eat what comes my way”.  As this began to change I gained enough sanity to start to notice thechemtrails more and investigate further.  I experienced so many synchronicities around this time, typically indicative of change in one’s life.
Eventually, what I uncovered baffled and disgusted me.  I would like to stress that I do not seek to alarm anyone with the information presented here.
Morgellons is downright creepy and exhausting to even think about.  I’m really not surprised why I just foundout about Morgellons now, despite having researched and filmed chemtrails for over a year.
Here, I only seek to encourage much needed-debate and research.  Many of you will already be familiar with a lot of this but if you bear with me it eventually gets more interesting.
For the newbies, proceed with caution.  This is just a brief overview but there are graphic videos linked in this article.  Some of you might not want to be eating when you watch some of these.
A Brief Note To The Skeptics
If you exhale in the winter you can see your breath because the surrounding air is cold.  Planes are closer to space and it’s cold up there, so you get these trails coming out of the engines of the planes.
However, in the past when the planes would leave contrails (condensation trails) those trails would disappear quickly, within minutes.  Now, as a result ofgovernment projects around the world many planes areleaving trails which linger, persist, expand and turn into what people then tragically refer to as “clouds”.
Tests show gargantuan levels of aluminum, barium, strontium, among other strange ingredients like red blood cells and fungus.
This is altering our atmosphere day by day, taking away the sky’s deep blue colour, replacing it with an ominous and poisonous, sometimes blindingly fluorescent white haze.
You are being attacked in this “modern” age and that much is certain.  Whether you agree that the chemtrails exist or represent this, it is obvious that you are being attacked via your water and food.  Personally, I don’t think adding air to the list seems far fetched at this point.  And that’s just for “physical” stuff.
I haven’t yet reminded you about the bombardment on our minds and souls via school and the soul-suckingmainstream media?
Skeptics would be wise to note that one of the reasons that it’s not always just condensation trailing behind the planes is that the spraying often turns off and on.
It is very revealing that one can see the planes spray and then stop spraying and then spray again (especially while the plane does not change speed or anything like that).  To me that’s about as obvious as thedemolition of the twin towers and building 7, but I digress.
There are seemingly thousands of other valid points confirming the fact that we’re being sprayed.  If I wrote this a year ago, I might have included many more of those but the data is out there.  The internet abounds withanalysis on this subject.
Ottawa
There are many weather-modification programs ravaging this earth.  The spraying is happening in at least all the NATO countries.  Even the UN admits that geo-engineering projects are occurring.  It’s getting coverage inmainstream media now.  An NBC-affiliated station called KMIR reported on it.
Zen Gardner succinctly writes, “If this is news to you, see the US Military paper Owning the Weather by 2025. Says it all. Like chemtrails, just the patents for all this technology is a total giveaway.”
The denial is very close to being over.  This expensive project, in its many various forms, is happening.  The ominous programs are supposedly to fight global warming but global warming is a hoax and the chemtrails are making us sicker.
Mystery shrouds this branch of knowledge and even for those who’ve gotten their feet wet the invitation to investigate further is often lost in a gigantic sea of information, wars, protests, chaos, distractions, routine, and an endless bombardment of crisis after crisis.
Propaganda
In a sad and hauntingly effective effort to curtail the truth, we are told that there are simply new types of clouds these days.  These new types of clouds just popped up now?  Just like this fire tornado and this death ray?  Give me a break.  This would be laughable if it wasn’t disturbing.
As for the meteorologists, they seem to either not care or are ignorant.  Them not reporting on this is like is like a nutritionist or a personal trainer recommending you eat at McDonalds.  Meanwhile, televisionand cute little computer generated Disney films and other Disney propaganda gets children used to seeing the weather behave in strange ways.
Images of chemtrails are being found in many commercials, advertisements and products just to pacify us.  Introduce it to us slowly enough and nobody will notice.  Sure, some of it must not be intentional, as there’s so many chemtrails it’s hard to take a sky shot without them sometimes, but many of them are intentional.
People can barely salvage memory ofOsama being a CIA asset or that western powers used to be friendly with Saddam Hussein.  One decade Saddam is a friend, the next he’s getting hung medieval-style.
Does anybody even remember the west speaking fondly of the Egyptian dictator one week and then not fondlythe next?  No.   Most people have no memory (at our current stage of evolution) and don’t care or pay attention.  Few remember that the sky didn’t always look this freakishly wavy:

Halifax
Look Up
Many can’t even imagine an aerosol project so evil so they try their best to avoid thinking about it or discussing it with anybody.  For many others who are a little less cowardly, all they need to wake up is to look up.
I don’t know if that’s something to be proud of or if it’s a shame that people even have to be told to look up… It’s probably both.  If you’re reading this, go look outside right now.
There’s a good chance you’ll see a plane spraying your sky.  I’m not even exaggerating.  I used to keep a tally of the days they were spraying until I noticed it was almost every day (even at night).  And if you don’t see something being sprayed, there’s a good chance you’ll see lots of bizarre straight lines that we did not used to see in the past.
I eventually took many photos and shot time-lapse videos of the flagrant bio-chemical attack and the associated scalar electromagnetic waves (discussed in more detail later):
(mirror 1)(mirror 2)
Less Sunlight
Discovering the chemtrails proved to reveal a lot more than I original thought it would.  For one thing, it became clear that many people did not care about sunlight.
For most people busy resisting the idea that chemtrails even exist, they completely miss out on noticing the fact that our skies have less sunlight.  You don’t need a study to tell you this.  Whether or not you think the chemicals they’re spraying are bad for us, it would really be something else to say that you have no problemwith losing your sunlight.
Sunlight allows our bodies to produce Vitamin D, after all.  Vitamin D deficiency causes a lot of problems. Natural News reports that, “Your risk of developing serious diseases like diabetes and cancer is reduced 50% – 80% through simple, sensible exposure to natural sunlight 2-3 times each week.”
If you’re going to be talking about throwing microscopic bits of aluminum into our sky to deflect sun rays you better make sure you know the full health implications.
The Anthropogenic Global Warming Hoax
When people finally admit to themselves that this spraying is actually happening there are those that then gravitate towards the assertion that this is an effort to deal with “global warming” / “climate change”, and that may indeed be the case with respect to many of these programs.
However, I repeat – human-made global warming is a giant hoax.  Look at the geo-engineering section of my website and you’ll see lots of data backing up my assertion.  Climate Depot is also a good source of info on this.
I don’t buy the lies about CO2 being the devil.  Studies show plants would love more CO2.   I don’t want to be a guinea pig.  If people are already throwing metals into the air to deal with this, then I’m already a guinea pig.  It’s quite simple.
This subject deserves as much investigation as possible and even more courage if one wants to stomach what is uncovered.  It’s useful to keep in mind that just because you wouldn’t harm large masses of populations that doesn’t automatically mean that somebody else wouldn’t harm large masses of populations.
I will expand on the health impacts of these chemtrails later but for now remember that you’re better off knowing about these things.  Stick your head in the sand at your own peril.

Russian warships entering Syrian waters to inhibit foreign invasion as opposition calls for no-fly zone …

Posted: November 23, 2011 | Author: | Filed under: Ahmed Sajjad Hashemy, al-Qaeda, America, Armageddon, Australia, Barack Obama, Britain, Central Asia, China, CIA, economic collapse, economic crisis, evidence, Gulf of Mexico | Leave a comment

In what represents the most confrontation between the West and Russia over the issue of Syrian intervention to date, Haaretz reports that a Syrian news agency said that Russian warships are due to arrive in Syrian territorial waters.
Haaretz characterizes this move as “a clear message to the West that Moscow would resist any foreign intervention in the country’s civil unrest,” and indeed it is a clear message that comes with threat of military repercussions.
Previously Russia has made it clear that they will not support yet another Western intervention in Syria but with the Arab League suspending Syria this week over their crackdown on armed opposition protesters, the stakes are getting higher by the day.
To make the already tense situation astoundingly worse, the former Syrian colonel and current leader of the Free Syrian army is calling for international intervention in no uncertain terms whatsoever.
There is truly nothing left to interpretation anymore, the Syrian opposition is armed, and as Riad al As’ad the leader of the Free Syrian Army said to Businessweek via telephone interview, “Our operations are increasing and we will reach the presidential palace. The regime is going to fall. It may take longer if there is no foreign assistance, but it’s not going to stay. It’s finished.”
“With the three separate attacks this week, they have raised the ante and are preparing the ground for a no- fly zone, similar to the scenario in Libya, which may have the support of a number of countries,” Theodore Karasik, the director of research at the Institute for Near East and Gulf Military Analysis in Dubai told Bloomberg.
While As’ad claims that no country has offered to support the Free Syrian Army yet, the fighting group “welcomes all assistance.”
Yet Mohammad Riad Shaqfa, the exiled leader of the Syrian Muslim Brotherhood said that, “If other interventions are required, such as air protection, because of the regime’s intransigence, then the people will accept Turkish intervention. They do not want Western intervention.”
Either Shaqfa is out of the loop or “all assistance” means “only Turkey.” I tend towards speculating that Shaqfa is just attempting to make foreign intervention more palatable, when in reality Turkey invading would mean Western nations taking part as well.
Of course, like Libya, this would be under the guise of a “support” role which in actuality means flying the vast majority of bombing runs and missions.
Yet Shaqfa’s assertion is completely contrary to the facts.
Reuters reports that France said it was encouraging Syrian opposition groups, including the Paris-based Syrian National Council, yet they claim they are opposed to outside military intervention.
“In any case we are helping them, we are encouraging them to get organized,” French Foreign Minister Alain Juppe told the French BFM Radio.
As’ad is calling for a so-called buffer zone in the north on the border between Syria and Turkey along with another in the south near the Jordanian border, supposedly “to help them bring the fight closer to Assad.”
The Arab League also proposed sending hundreds of so-called observers to Syria, but one wouldn’t be out of line in pointing out that Arab League nations helped obliterate Libya, specifically Qatar which was directing and fighting with the rebels in every major battle throughout the entirety of the uprising.
I believe that it might be a bit foolish to assume that observers are only observers and not so-called “trainers” who will help train, direct and fight with the opposition against Bashar al-Assad’s government.
As I have pointed out countless times now, all of the signs are pointing to a Libya-type scenario unfolding in Syria and all I can say is that I truly hope that I am wrong about this.
However, the Syrian government has already decried the United States’ “blatant interference” in the uprising there, and the reality of American interference is hardly arguable at this point.
Prominent U.S. politicians like John McCain, who just happens to be the top Republican on the Senate Armed Services Committee, have openly called for foreign intervention in Syria.
Earlier this month, the Syrian government accused the United States of funding terrorists in Syria, along with the clear meddling America has participated in recently.
The fact is, just like Libya, these so-called protesters, who are better characterized as a well-armed rebellion, have absolutely no interest in a peaceful resolution.
The Syrian opposition has declared that they will not hold any talks with the Assad government, and we saw this same thing with the al-Qaeda affiliated Libyan rebels.
The Russians are quite aware of this fact, and Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov made this quite clear in talks with French Foreign Minister Alain Juppe in early September.
Lavrov pointed out that the Syrian opposition’s outright refusal to hold talks with the government clearly indicates that they are seeking international backing in the vein of what the Libyan rebels received.
Lavrov further emphasized the fact that international support could well lead to “new bloodshed” in Syria.
The Syrian opposition has also established a proto-government of sorts, straight out of the Western-backed Libyan playbook.
Instead of the National Transitional Council or Transitional National Council (NTC/TNC) depending on the news source, it is the Syrian National Council (SNC).
Is anyone else a bit amazed at the fact that they would follow the Libyan blueprint after seeing Libya absolutely decimated?
This is just one of the many pieces of the puzzle indicating that this is a Western-engineered faux revolution to justify armed intervention.
Yet, unlike Libya, Russia has pledged their support to the Assad government and they are actually backing it up with military firepower.
This will undoubtedly make for a much muddier situation for the U.S.-led NATO forces with the help of Arab League nations to wade into.
Lavrov has recently pointed out that the so-called Free Syrian Army assault on an Airforce Intelligence compound on the peripheries of Damascus was “already completely similar to civil war,” and he couldn’t be more correct.
You can no longer pretend to be a peaceful pro-democracy movement when you’re using rocket-propelled grenades and machine guns to assault a military base.
The 10-member military council that leads the Free Syrian Army has taken full credit for this assault while also destroying an armed personnel carrier (APC) at another intelligence agency base in Aleppo, according to the spokesman, Ammar al-Wawi.
The armed assault does not end there, indeed army defectors using rocket-propelled grenades to attack the Baath Party offices in the town of Maaret al-Numan.
As’ad claims that the Free Syrian Army gains 100-200 new members every time they conduct an attack on government targets.
According to As’ad the group’s fighters are spread out amongst all of the hotbeds of conflict that have seen the most action in the eight-month uprising.
These include suburbs of the Syrian capital of Damascus, the central cities of Homs and Hama, the southern region of Daraa, the norther province of Idlib, the port city of Latakia, and the eastern town of Deir al-Zour.
Even the establishment media seems to be picking up on the fact that the Syrian uprising isn’t just a bunch of peace-loving pro-democracy protesters dancing in the streets and hugging each other while the bloodthirsty Assad heartlessly slaughters them.
As Liz Sly for The Washington Post points out, in a blog of course as this is far from front-page material for a rag like The Washington Post, “If there were any doubt that the Syrian uprising is rapidly evolving into an armed insurgency, an unverified video posted on the Internet depicting what appears to be the ambush of a military vehicle by defected soldiers seems to dispel it.”
Her inclusion of “unverified” is a bit out of order seeing as the Free Syrian Army openly brags about the attack.
The Syrian state-run SANA news agency reported a rise in military casualties which clearly indicates that there is a well-armed insurgency in Syria.
The absurd part about this whole Syria debacle is that armed insurgents are free targets for American troops and drones nearly anywhere on Earth, yet when Assad attempts to defend his own government and his military; it is suddenly a humanitarian crisis.
This kind of doublethink and moral pragmatism disgusts me, and the fact that so many Westerners can reconcile this is beyond me.
Hopefully the Russian presence in Syrian territorial waters will deter any foreign invasion, be it Turkey or the U.S.-led NATO forces that are still washing the blood of Libyan civilians off their hands.
Any situation in which foreign troops invade Syria will not be a positive one for the invaders or the people of Syria.
Just like Libya, it will undoubtedly lead to a total destruction of the infrastructure, followed by looting of the natural resources and then the gold rush that is involved in rebuilding a country they just bombed into the Stone Age.

Solid Proof That Weather Modification Projects Are Being Conducted All Over The United States …

Posted: November 23, 2011 | Author: | Filed under: Ahmed Sajjad Hashemy, Australia, birds, Chemtrails, China, Christmas, cyber-attack, Disasters, earth, Earthquake, Egypt, electromagnetic pulse, Electromagnetic Warfare, Sea | Leave a comment

The American Dream
Most Americans still believe that our weather patterns are 100% natural and that our government has absolutely no control over the weather.  Unfortunately, that is not the case at all.  What you are about to read is evidence that weather modification is happening right now all over the United States.  This is never acknowledged by our politicians and it is never talked about by the mainstream media.  But it is very, very real.  Weather modification programs in some parts of the country have been going on for many years and evidence of these programs is hidden in plain view.  So does this mean that if we don’t like the weather we can just blame the government?  Well, yes it does, but it also means that the government has been seriously messing around with our environment and there could be “unintended consequences” that are far more dramatic than any of us ever dared to imagine.
Those that believed that the government was involved in weather modification were once considered to be “kooks”, but the truth is that authorities aren’t even trying to hide it anymore.  For example, the following was recently posted in the “Legal Notices” section of the classified ads in a local newspaper called The Tribune in San Luis Obispo, California….
NOTICE OF INTENTION WEATHER MODIFICATION PROGRAM THE SANTA BARBARA COUNTY WATER AGENCY HEREBY GIVES NOTICE OF INTENTION TO CONDUCT A WEATHER MODIFICATION PROGRAM NATURE AND PURPOSE: The purpose of the project is to increase rainfall to help alleviate deficiencies of water supplies in Santa Barbara County. Clouds would be seeded by the dispersal of SilverIodide (AgI). Two possible modes of seeding, air based and ground based, would be used. LOCATION OF PURPOSE: Project operations could be conducted during the period between November 15 and April 15, for each year, 2011-2012 through 2015-2016. Airborne seeding operations would utilize air space over Santa Barbara County, portions of San Luis Obispo County as well as the Pacific Ocean immediately west of Santa Barbara and San Luis Obispo Counties. Ground based seeding operations would be conducted from the Santa Ynez Mountains, the Casmalia Hills and the San Rafael Mountains. The target areas for seeding operations are the watersheds behind Cachuma and Gibraltar reservoirs on the Santa Ynez River as well as Twitchell reservoir on the Cuyama River. LICENSEE: The project would be operated and supervised by a licensed weather modification consultant.
Can it get much clearer than that?
The Santa Barbara County water agency is telling the world that it plans to conduct a weather modification program and it is explaining exactly how it will be done.
If you are thinking that this is something new, you might want to guess again.
Weather modification projects have been conducted down in Texas for years.
The following comes from the website of the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation….
Currently, cloud-seeding projects designed to increase rainfall from convective cloud towers are conducted in nearly 31 million acres of Texas (or almost one-fifth of the state’s land area). In administering the Texas Weather Modification Act (enacted by the Texas Legislature in 1967), TDLR’s weather modification program issues licenses and permits for these projects, many of which have been in existence since 2000. The projects use specialized aircraft and sophisticated weather radar systems, operated by skilled meteorologists, at sites near Amarillo, Plains, Pecos, San Angelo, and Pleasanton.
Anyone still want to be a skeptic after reading that?
According to the Texas state government, these weather modification projects have been going on down in Texas since the year 2000.
So if you live in Texas and you don’t like the weather, just blame Rick Perry.
But weather modification projects are not just happening in the United States.  The truth is that they are going on all over the globe.
An article from the Guardian a couple of years ago talked about the mammoth weather modification projects that have been happening in China….
The Chinese air force claimed today that the biggest weather modification operation in the country’s history cleared the skies over Tiananmen Square just in time for the National Day parade.
I write this post under gorgeously azure skies. Instead of the dull haze I have grown used to in Beijingover the past few years, the light is so sharp that it almost hurts my eyes.
The transformation is so dramatic it is eerie. When I flew into Beijing yesterday, the city was shrouded in what looked like a thick smog.
An article posted on arabianbusiness.comtalked about the extraordinary weather modification projects that have been sponsored by the Abu Dhabi government….
Scientists working for the Abu Dhabi government created more than 50 rainstorms in Al Ain in July and August of 2010, during the peak of the emirate’s summer months.
The rains are part of a secret $11m project, reportedly commissioned by HH Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan,President of the UAE, which used ionisers to generate storms, the UK’s Sunday Times said.
It is thought to be the first time the team had produced man-made rain from otherwise clear skies.
According to the report, scientists used large ionisers, which resemble lampshades, to generate fields of negatively charged particles. That in turn creates cloud formation, leading to rain.
Over 122 days through the summer months, the emitters were switched on 74 times when atmospheric humidity reached the required level of 30 percent or more.
During that time, Al AIn experienced rainfall on 52 occasions on days when the country’s own weather service had predicted no clouds and no rain.
Are you starting to get the picture?
Unfortunately, we have no idea what the potential side effects of all of this weather modification will be.
Yes, we are learning to change the weather, but meanwhile our weather seems to be getting more unstable than ever.  Over the course of this past year we have seen an incredible onslaught of natural disasters.  Nearly every single region of the U.S. has been affected.
So obviously we are very far from mastering our control of the weather.  In fact, we might actually be making things much worse by monkeying around with the weather.
But our authorities continue to want to play God.
For example, have you ever gone outside and looked up into the sky and been surprised to see it streaked with long white lines that don’t seem to go away for hours and hours?
They are known as “chemtrails”, and virtually none of our politicians will talk about them and virtually nobody in the mainstream media will talk about them.
But are we supposed to ignore the fact that they are there?  All of us can see the planes leaving these trails and all of us can see that they stay up there for hours and hours.
This phenomenon is happening all over the world, and it is generally assumed that some kind of massive geo-engineering program is taking place.
The following video contains more information about these “chemtrails”.  As you can see, there is a huge difference between the “contrails” that quickly dissipate behind airplanes and the “chemtrails” that are purposely being sprayed above all of our major cities….

So what do all of you think about weather modification and chemtrails?  Please feel free to leave a comment with your opinion below….

Alert: News Blackout America Becoming Radioactive …

The mainstream media and federalgovernment are conspiring to black out the escalating nucleardisasters in Japan and how radiation’s affecting  America.
UPDATE NOV. 19, 2011: RADIOACTIVE L.A. AIR 300% OVER NORMAL BACKGROUND — VIDEO
Radiation levels are increasing across North America
Chances are you’ve eaten radioactive food and didn’t even know it. Most people aren’t aware that radiation is contaminating America’s food supply right now.
The source for radioactive food? The TEPCO nuclear reactors in Fukushima, Japan.
Scrumptious Fukushima contaminated food — eat it today and tomorrow it’s sayonara
The food supply is becoming contaminated by Japanese radiation and the U.S. government—and much of themainstream media—is studiously ignoring the massive health problem that one nuclear expert claims is 70 times worse than the Ukraine nuclear disaster at Chernobyl.
Looks yummy—except they’re laced with Cesium-137
Dairy, strawberries, mushrooms…testing positive for Cesium-137
University of California Berkeley (UCB) has discovered rising radiation in selected produce grown inCalifornia. Six items were tested: spinach, strawberries, cilantro, topsoil, grass, and mushrooms. Measured in Becquerel per kilogram. Five of six items in U.S. food chain sampling test have radioactive particles. [Source]
Radioactive Strontium Found in Hilo, Hawaii Milk
Since April 2011 the EPA and others have been finding radioactive particles in milk. The last report was in early may, then all information was blacked out.
The radiation released by the four damaged TEPCO reactors in the Fukushima Province has vastly increased. Radioactivity has now spread across most of northern Japan and as far south as Tokyo.
Plans are being made for a new Japanese capital and talk in Japan is that Tokyo—one of the world’s biggest cities—may have to be evacuated, even abandoned.
Meanwhile, the radiation is spreading through the ocean and deadly particles are being carried by prevailing winds to North America.
A radioactive isotope of strontium has been detected in American milk for the first time since Japan’s nuclear disaster—in a sample from Hilo, Hawaii—the Environmental Protection Agency revealed yesterday.
Tests for strontium are triggered by the presence of cesium isotopes, which have been found in milk from Hilo, Montepelier VT, and Oakland and in precipitation from Boise, Richmond CA, Salt Lake City and a few other cities.
The Strontium-89 was found in April 4 Hilo samples previously found to contain cesium-134 and cesium-137. [Forbes]
UCB nuclear laboratory scientist prepares testbed
Berkely monitoring rising radiation levels in US Food
UCB has been monitoring the increasing radiation levels since the earthquake and tsunami destroyed the Tokyo Electric PowerCompany’s four reactors in Fukushima.
The nuclear science lab has released dozens of reports, reports basically ignored by the American press.
Here are a sampling of some of UCB’s scientific reports on the escalating radiation:
Report 1.
Report 2.
Areas Where Food May Already Have Radioactive Fallout
In the months following the ongoing reactor breaches, rising radiation is contaminating the U.S. food supply. For the most part the serious consequences are being played down or outright ignored. Some health experts are expecting a rising cancer rate in the U.S. within a decade, especially along the West Coast.
Care for some tasty radioactive sushi with your green tea?
According to a special report posted by the website Rense.com, the most contaminated regions of farmland in the U.S. (based on established fallout patterns of known radioactive drift and charted by Euro scientific agencies) are: the entire Pacific Coast (note that much of the produce in North America comes from this region, especially California); northern U.S. States close to Canada, and Canadian areas close to the U.S. (including Toronto) ; Eastern States, Central States of the U.S., and Far Northern areas of Canada. [Rense]
Warning: Now entering produce section of your grocer’s
More U.S. states find traces of radiation from Japan
CNN reports that radiation in America’s food chain is continuing to rise. Sporadic reports of what’s actually happening break through the media static periodically, but America is at risk of radiation poisoning and the mainstream media is focusing primarily on celebrities and the bickering among politicians.
Birth defects after Chernobyl – Fukushima much worse
[Note: For actual reports of the serious problem the U.S. is facing monitor the UK press, websites from Japan, South Korea, China and India. You can find them with a Google search.]
Media puts on a happy (glowing) face about radiation
After shutting down radiation monitoring stations across the U.S. as “unnecessary” the government and EPA officials continue to lull the American public into a state of soothing catatonic blindness:
Still, right now, U.S. health officials have emphasized that, at about 5,000 miles from the plant, the West Coast is unlikely to see any dangerous levels of radiation regardless of what happens in Japan. Radioactive particles disperse in the air, thus there is less of a hazard the farther away you are.
“Our finding is consistent with findings in Washington and California. We have expected to find trace amounts of the isotopes released from the Japanese plant. There is no health risk,” Gail Shibley, administrator of Oregon’s Office ofEnvironmental Public Health, Oregon Public Health Division, said in a statement. [CNN]
Yet the official statements fly in the face of the data that the nuclear scientists at UCB and other nuclear scientists in Western Europe have been obtaining from air, water, soil ,and produce samples.
Spirulina helps reduce damage from radiation poisoning
How to protect yourself and your family
Scientists have found that spirulina can help reduce the deadly affects of radiation poisoning. This is particularly important in the face of the ongoing nuclear disaster in Fukushima, Japan and the growing evidence amassed by nuclear experts that the radiation is continuing to contaminate parts of Korea, thePhilippines, Hawaii, North America and even Western Europe.

Top Russian general: NATO expansion raises danger of nuclear conflict …

Posted: November 19, 2011 | Author: | Filed under: Ahmed Sajjad Hashemy, al-Qaeda, America, Armageddon, Australia, Barack Obama, Britain, Central Asia, China, CIA, economic collapse, economic crisis, evidence, Gulf of Mexico | Leave a comment

By The Associated Press

Russia sees NATO’s expansion to include formerSoviet bloc countries in eastern and central Europe as a key threat to its security.

Russia is facing a heightened risk of being drawn into conflicts at its borders that have the potential of turning nuclear, the nation’s top military officer said Thursday.
Gen. Nikolai Makarov, chief of the General Staff of the Russian armed forces, cautioned over NATO’s expansion eastward and warned that the risks of Russia being pulled into local conflicts have “risen sharply.”
Makarov added, according to Russian news agencies, that “under certain conditions local and regional conflicts may develop into a full-scale war involving nuclear weapons.”
A steady decline in Russia’s conventional forces has prompted the Kremlin to rely increasingly on its nuclear deterrent. The nation’s military doctrine says it may use nuclear weapons to counter a nuclear attack on Russia or an ally, or a large-scale conventional attack that threatens Russia’s existence.
Russia sees NATO’s expansion to include former Soviet republics and ex-members of the Soviet bloc in eastern and central Europe as a key threat to Russia’s security.
Makarov specifically referred to NATO’s plans to offer membership to Georgia andUkraine as potentially threatening Russia’s security. Russia routed Georgian forces in a brief August 2008 war over a separatist province of South Ossetia. Moscow later recognized South Ossettia and another breakaway Georgian province of Abkhazia as independent states and increased its military presence there.
Makarov warned that the planned pullout of NATO forces from Afghanistan could trigger conflicts in neighboring ex-Soviet Central Asian nations that could “grow into a large-scale war.”
In its military doctrine, Russia has also described U.S. missile defense plans as another major security challenge, saying it could threaten its nuclear forces and undermine their deterrence potential.
Moscow has agreed to consider NATO’s proposal last fall to cooperate on the missile shield, but the talks have been deadlocked over how the system should operate. Russia has insisted that the system should be run jointly, which NATO has rejected.
Makarov also said Russia is struggling to get enough recruits for the 1-million military, as the number of draftees has shrunk dramatically because of demographic changes.
He said that the military is aiming to gradually increase the number of contract soldiers and eventually form an all-volunteer army. He didn’t mention a specific time frame.
The statement marked a sharp change of course for the top military brass who previously insisted that Russia needs to maintain the highly unpopular draft because an all-volunteer military would be too costly.

Weather Control: Steering Hurricanes, Artificial Tornadoes, Man Made Lightning, Creating Rain And Snow …

Perhaps the first efforts to control the weather involved prayer or rain dances, but in the modern era it has become the focus of varying technologies that are being attempted by Europeans, Asians and Americans.  Even the King of Thailand has created a method of creating and steering rain clouds.   Five different technologies, among many others, are presented to control the weather including controlling storms and creating artificial tornadoes and lightning as well as creating and steering rain and snow clouds.
Steering Hurricanes
U.S. Patent Application 20100072297 describes a method for controlling hurricanes. According to inventors Manilal J Savla (Manalapan, NJ) and Vishal T. Shah (Parlin, NJ) the method for controlling and steeringhurricanes involves raising temperature in the eye and/or in the outflow. Air temperature within the eye and in the outflow of a hurricane is raised by flying scores of jet planes with afterburners in the structure. Small changes in temperature on a large scale bring in large changes in other variables on the smaller scale to change the direction and intensity of the hurricane. The US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Organization and other US agencies fly planes through hurricanes routinely to do research and collect scientific data.
In recent research supported by the NASA Institute for Advanced Concept, Ross Hoffman advanced his theory of “chaotic” system. This theory of so-called “butterfly effect” shows a small nudge in a chaotic system, for example hurricane, can produce chain reaction big enough to knock the hurricane off its course and also reduce its strength. Computer simulations of small changes in temperature showed control of track and intensity of hurricanes. One plausible approach suggested for actual hurricane control was to use microwaveenergy to heat up selected portions of hurricane using a ring of solar satellites. However, this solution is still far away many years for practical use.
According to Savla and Shah, their invention proposes to bring about small changes in temperature by using a fleet of flying jet planes with afterburners. Flight patterns, locations in the hurricane structure and number of aircrafts as well as duration of flights are determined doing a computer simulation using an appropriate software program.
Artificial Tornadoes
In U.S. Patent Application 20110248498, entitled Generating Electrical Power Utilizing Surface-Level Hot Air As The Heat Source, High Atmosphere As The Heat Sink And A Microwave Beam To Initiate And Control Air Updraft, inventor Slobodan Tepic (Zurich, CH) describes a way to create artificial tornadoes The invention uses a renewable source for electricity generation utilizing a solar chimney created by a microwave beam to form an artificial tornado.
An electrical power plant, according to Tepic, is to operate preferably on a platform floating at sea, utilizing hot humid air as the heat source and the high atmosphere as the heat sink. Anchored along the continental coasts of the tropical/subtropical oceans, where average absorbed solar insulation is in the range of 200 to 300 W/m.sub.2 and sea surface temperatures are on the order of 300 K, such plants could be built to continuously operate at a gigawatt (GW) level. Air circulation around the center of the plant resembles a natural cyclone; vertical outflow is induced by buoyancy of the air column above the plant heated by a microwave beam aimed from the plant upward. The frequency of the microwave beam is centered at approximately 60 GHz, within an absorption band of molecular oxygen. The preferred source of the microwave beam is a gyrotron.
According to Tepic, in addition to clean electrical power, the plant can also provide clean water from condensation out of the humid, sea level air. Anchoring rows of such power plants along the coasts most threatened by large weather storms (called hurricanes in the Atlantic, typhoons in the Pacific and tropical cyclones in the Indian Ocean) would also produce barriers these storms could not cross because sea surface air would be colder and less humid.
Creating And Steering Rain Clouds
Bhumibol Adulyadej, His Majesty King of Thailand; (Bangkok, TH) in U.S. Patent Application 20050056705, entitled Weather Modification By Royal Rainmaking Technology, proposes a system to create artificial rain clouds and steer them to where rain is needed. `Royal Rainmaking Technology` is described as weather modification by means of chemical seeding comprises steps of “Triggering”, to activate cloud formation; “Fattening”, to promote cloud growth; “Moving”, to move cloud to a designated area, and “Attacking” to initiate rainfall from cloud. Attacking can be done by at least 3 different techniques; by `Sandwich Seeding Technique` for `warm cloud`, by `Glaciogenic Seeding Technique` for `cool cloud`, or by `Super Sandwich Seeding Technique` for mixed phase cloud. `Enhancing` is for enhancing amount of rainfall and prolonging raining duration including increasing area coverage. Weather modification extends to dispersion of cloud into clear flight path, prevention of hail formation, and inducing rainfall from stratiform clouds onto a valley or any catchment areas. Seeding may be performed inside or outside a cloud or to the top or underneath any isolated cloud or cloud band.
Artificial Lightning And Controlling Cyclones
Inventor Bernard Eastlund (La Jolla, CA) in U.S. Patent Application 20070238252, entitled Cosmic particle ignition of artificially ionized plasma patterns in the atmosphere,reveals a method and apparatus for creating artificially ionized regions in theatmosphere utilizing ionization trails of cosmic rays and micro-meteors to ignite plasma patterns in electric field patterns formed by ground based electromagnetic wave radiators. The applications are useful for telecommunications, weather control, lightening protection and defense applications. The invention lowers the power requirements for forming artificial ionized regions in the atmosphere by a factor of up to 1600 times lower than those required in existing designs and projections for creation of artificial ionized regions in the atmosphere.
According to Eastlund, the invention has a phenomenal variety of possible ramifications and potential future developments. As alluded to earlier, a variety of telecommunications systems for improvement of local cellular systems, short haul standalone cellular systems, city wide cellular systems and long haul communications systems could result. Two new approaches to weather modification and control are suggested. The first is for manipulation of the steering winds that control the development of mesocyclones, or the modification of the directions of the jet streams that influence development of hurricanes. The second is a method for influencing the electrical charge distribution in weather patterns such as meso-cyclones. Possible defense applications include a method of accelerating electrons to MEV energies in conjunction with the HAARP antenna. Research applications include the creation of bright and controlled guide stars for astrophysical purposes. Thus it can be seen that the ramifications are numerous, far-reaching, and exceedingly varied in usefulness.
Making Any Type Of Precipitation
Inventors Helmut Fluhrer (Zug, CH); Elena Davydova; (Egmating, DE) and Yuri Saveliev; (Shailer Park, AU) in U.S. Patent Application 20110174892 describe an apparatus for weather modification. The apparatus comprises an emitter electrode, means for providing the emitter electrode with an electric charge, electrically coupled to the emitter electrode, an insulating support for supporting the emitter electrode at a predetermined height, and means for earthing the apparatus.
Entitled Apparatus And Related Methods For Weather Modification By Electrical Processes In The Atmosphereand assigned to Meteo Systems International Ag (Zug, CH) , the inventors say an apparatus for weather modification is provided  that can create rain clouds and control the intensity and type of precipitation from such rain, drizzle, snow, hail, and so forth to a targeted area.
The method comprises the steps of providing an emitter electrode, analyzing the meteorological situation in and/or close to the target region, and providing the emitter electrode with an electric charge in response to the meteorological analysis, thereby causing the emitter electrode to ionize the vicinity of the emitter electrode.
The invention relates to methods and devices for modifying atmospheric conditions, known in this context as weather modification, by enhancing electric forces exerted on and between particles of atmospheric air such as water particles, aerosols, molecular clusters, and water molecules possessing their own electric dipole moment. Particular applications of weather control require specific methods and devices for their implementation. Using electrical methods of weather modification for other purposes such as dispersion of fog, which is cloud located on or near the surface of the Earth; increasing cloud coverage over selected regions, particularly the ocean; and increasing oceanic moisture inflow inland, would in general require specific methods and parameters of the invention.

Venezuela: Nuclear Conflict Looms ahead if Iran and Syria are Attacked …

Posted: November 19, 2011 | Author: | Filed under: Ahmed Sajjad Hashemy, al-Qaeda, America, Armageddon, Australia, Barack Obama, Britain, Central Asia, China, CIA, economic collapse, economic crisis, evidence, Gulf of Mexico | Leave a comment

After a long break caused by serious health problems, Venezuela’s H. Chavez resumed on November 15 the practice of televised addresses on key policy issues. As a key message prompted by the recent developments, the Venezuelan leader sent to his nation and to the international community a strong warning about the threat of anuclear conflict currently brewing in the Middle East… “There’s a nuclear war threat…The most guilty [of this risk] is the United States government and its allies such as Israel, who have many nuclear bombs,” said Chavez in a voice full of emotion.
The US propaganda campaign built around the myth of Iran’s nuclear-arms ambitions has been unfolding for years, growing increasingly hysterical in the process. Chavez at all times reiterated Venezuela’s support for Iran, expressing confidence in the civilian character of the country’s nuclear program. The statements invariably drew  Washington’s ire or even allegations of the Venezuelan regime’s complicity with Ahmadinejad in secretly building nuclear weapons. Among other groundless claims, the US information warfare forces floated the fictitious story of uranium mining in Venezuela in the interests of the Iranian nuclear programand even fed to the media photographs of the Venezuelan uranium mine which, as it transpired shortly, actually showed a bicycle-assembling factory which used Iranian-supplied components. No apologies followed, as for the Empire lies are a normal instrument employed to influence the world around. The world is used to hearing lies from US presidents, secretaries of state, defense secretaries, bankers, journalists, diplomats, and intelligence operatives. The intensity of alarmist call for a global war on terror, ostensibly to counter the terrorist threat targeting the US at all angles, peaked in the wake of the September 11, 2001 drama when the Trade Center in NY was blown up on the order from the US “shadow government”. A tide of US special operations immediately swept across the world from Afghanistan and Iraq to Russia.
At the moment Syria, like Iran, is facing an unprecedented smear campaign. Armed groupstrained by the US and Israeli intelligence services are penetrating the country with the mission of destabilizing Bashar al-Assad’s regime and igniting clashes, which could be cited internationally as a pretext for an intervention. The mercenaries’ atrocities in Syria seem to indicate that they have been trained by the US, Israeli, and French instructors who gained much of their past experience in Libya. Israeli commandos and Mossad operatives are particularly notorious for cruelty. Tel Aviv is fanning the internal strife in Syria to weaken the country militarily in the run-up to air raids against Iran’s allegedly arms-related nuclear infrastructures, along with its command and communication centers, air-defense installations, and munitions depots.
With memories still fresh of what happened in Iraq and Libya, of the sufferings the countries’ populations had to endure, and of the killings of S. Hussein and M. Gadhafi, Iran is determined to fight back in every way possible, and the Pentagon is fully aware of the perspective. US military planners warned the White House that the consequences of a military campaign against Iran can prove unpredictable, and B. Obama, who has permanently looked exhausted recently, decided to take time and, within several weeks, to consult with the US allies. The forecast at the moment is that Washington will not go beyond pushing for tighter sanctions against Iran, but chances are the US is simply trying to cause Tehran to lose vigilance.
The pro-Zionist global media provide extensive coverage of the potential plans for an attack on Iran, throwing in pieces of disinformation or attempting to intimidate the country. At the end of a long process of forging evidence of Iran’s making dirty bombs and bacteriological warfare in secret laboratories, the Western intelligence agencies may have started to believe in what they preached and now take seriously Tehran’s pledges of a crushing retaliatory strike. From Chavez’s perspectives, neither the US nor Israel can be trusted, Iran has serious reasons for concern, and provocations can take place any moment. Iran’s foes have no shortage of prefabricated scenarios, and some of the Western analysts in fact suggested using tactical nuclear weapons to  inflict maximal damage on the Iranian military infrastructure. This may be the reason why Chavez had to stress that no government has the right to resort to nuclear weapons as no nations, including their own, would stay unharmed, and the radioactivity would put life on Earth as a whole in jeopardy.
In September, 2011, Venezuelan foreign minister Nicolás Maduro delivered a message on behalf of Chavez to the 66th session of the UN General Assembly. The sense of concern behind the talk resonated with the audience as Maduro said: “an unprecedented, imperialist and permanent war had begun”. The Venezuelan envoy maintained that the unlimited power of the military and financial oligarchy which, to boost its own revenues, is destroying the world and de facto runs a large group of countries, leads the world to a global catastrophe. He further stressed that war has to be a way of life for the financial capital as, destroying societies, wars help the chosen few to amass unbelievable riches. In the nearest future the world will be confronted with the threat of a new series of colonial wars being unleashed, with Libya as the starting point, to revitalize the global capitalist system now trapped in a deep structural crisis.  
It is clear that the escalation around Iran and Syria, least the launch of military campaigns against the two countries, would cast a long shadow over the relations between Moscow and Washington. For Moscow, the independence and sovereignty of Iran and Syria are important from the standpoint of geopolitical stability along Russia’s southern frontier, and the Kremlin becomes increasingly vocal about this aspect of the situation. So far, there is no impression that Washington and Tel Aviv, eager to make another step towards global dominance, are ready to take Moscow’s position into account.  
Discussing ways of taming the US and NATO, Chavez constantly invokes the themes of the multipolar world, alternative centers of power, and the cooperation between such countries as China, Russia, India, and Brazil in the name of peace. So far, however, their leaders appear to be lacking the will needed to put an end to the rising neocolonialism and unabashed international banditry.

2011 Poll: Only 6% of the EU would support Military Action against Iran …

Posted: November 19, 2011 | Author: | Filed under: Ahmed Sajjad Hashemy, al-Qaeda, America, Armageddon, Australia, Barack Obama, Britain, Central Asia, China, CIA, economic collapse, economic crisis, evidence, Fake Intelligence | Leave a comment

According to a 2011 poll by Transatlantic Trends very few people in the EU, US, and Turkey would support military action against Iran.
The report starts with preamble by saying: “In a year of tumult and upheaval, with political revolutions in the Middle East and North Africa, natural catastrophes in Japan,economic turmoil in Europe and theUnited States, the killing of Osama bin Laden, and heated debates over NATO, Transatlantic Trends paints a picture of a complex relationship between the United States andEurope and how they respond to global challenges. Transatlantic Trends shows that people respond to complexity with nuance rather than simplification.”
One of its key findings was in regards to Iran and the support that US, EU, and Turkish citizens would provide their states for a military attack on Iran.
In Section Four (Transatlantic Security), the poll states: “Very few people in the EU (6%), the United States (13%), and Turkey (4%) preferred military action over other options.”

How to Protect Ourselves from Radiation …

Self-Help: How to Protect Ourselves Against Damage from Radiation

Now that much of Europe is being blanketed with radioactive iodine, high levels of radiation in Tokyo and other areas of Japan have been confirmed (and seethis and this), and some areas of theUnited States and Canada – such as the Cascades – are getting hit with fairly significant amounts of radiation, it is time to revisit the question: how can we protect ourselves?
The initial answer is that we should reduce our exposure to radiation in the first place. For example, world renowned physicist Michio Kaku told his Japanese family and friends months ago that they should leave if they can.
If you live in an area receiving any radiation exposure, you should also take off your shoes and leave them by the door (Asian style) and use a Hepa vacuum to get rid of excess dust.
As nuclear expert Arnie Gundersen said in June:
[In a worst case scenario, for example, if the fuel pool at Fukushima reactor 4 were to topple over], I would close my windows, turn the air conditioner on, replace the filters frequently, damp mop, put a HEPA filter in the house and try to avoid as much of the hot particles as possible. You are not going to walk out with a Geiger counter and be in a plume that is going to tell you the meter. The issue will be on the West Coast, hot particles. And the solution there is HEPA filters and avoiding them.
Also, rain is the main way that radiation is spread outside of the vicinity of the nuclear accident.   As a parent who doesn’t want to tell my kids they can’t play in the rain, none of this is fun to talk about … but during periods of high radiation release, people might want to keep their kids out of heavy rain.
When a lot of radiation is being released, we might want to avoid milk for a couple of weeks or so.

Supplements

Nuclear expert Chris Busby suggested last month that people exposed to high levels of radiation – for example, those unable to evacuate away from Fukushima – take high doses of calcium and magnesium to blockplutonium, strontium and uraniumpoisoning.
Dr. Busby suggests that adults take 800 mg of calcium and 350 mg of magnesiumper day, and that children take the appropriate fraction of that depending on their weight.
Potassium iodide does protect against damage from radioactive iodine, but should only be taken if one is directly exposed to high levels of iodine, and you should never exceed the recommended dosage.
  • Prussian blue for cesium
In addition, there is solid science proving that anti-oxidants help to protect us against low-level radiation. Specifically, low-level ionizing radiation causes our cells to produce free radicals, which produce much of the damage from the radiation. Taking anti-oxidants neutralizes the free radicals, helping to protect us against radiation damage:
Note: We should demand that fish caught of the West coast of the U.S. and Canada is tested for radiation.  See this and this. We should also demand regular testing of milk and water for radiation.

Asia-Pacific: US Ramps Up Global War Agenda …

Posted: November 19, 2011 | Author: | Filed under: Ahmed Sajjad Hashemy, al-Qaeda, America, Armageddon, Australia, Barack Obama, Britain, Central Asia, China, CIA, economic collapse, economic crisis, evidence, Gulf of Mexico | Leave a comment

Like a schoolyard bully, President Barack Obama is flexing American military muscle as he currently sweeps through the Asia-Pacificregion. The nominal impetus for the tour was the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) summit held in Hawaii last week. But rather than discussing “economics” (the E in APEC), the salient focus for Obama and his entourage appears to be “war” – and in particular laying down battle lines to China.
Testy relations with China is nothing new for Washington given recent months of US haranguing over trade and finance, but what Obama’s bombast signals is a sinister ramping up of the militarist agenda towards Beijing.
As if bouncing underlings and lackeys into his gang, the American president has moved on from Honolulu with stopovers in Australia, Indonesia and elsewhere. Given the primary economic power of China in the hemisphere, it might be thought appropriate for Obama to make a cordial visit to Beijing to discuss partnerships and policies to revive the global economy. But no. The omission of China on this major US tour seems to be a deliberate snub to Beijing and a message to the region: that China is to be isolated and ringfenced. This is the stuff of warmongering writ large.
The blatant aggression is naturally smoothed over and made palatable by the Western mainstream media. Reporting on Obama’s unilateral belligerence at the APEC, the Washington Post bemoans: “Try as he might to focus Asian and Pacific leaders on forging new economic partnerships during a regional summit here, President Obama has spent much of his time in private meetings with his counterparts discussing another pressing concern: national security [that is, US military power].”
The Financial Times reports breathlessly: “Barack Obama will not set foot in China during his swing through the Asia-Pacific region… yet the country’s rapid economic ascent and military advances will provide the backdrop for almost everything he does on the trip.”
Note the assertion that it is China’s “military advances” that are prompting US concerns, not the more reasonable and realistic observation that Washington is the one beating the war drums.
The FT goes on to say: “The Pentagon is quietly working on a new strategy dubbed the AirSea Battle concept, which is designed to find ways to counter Chinese military plans to deny access to US forces in the seas surrounding China.”
In “seas surrounding China” it may be thought by some as entirely acceptable for Beijing to “deny access to US forces”. But not, it seems, for the scribes at the FT and other Western mainstream media, who transform US offence/Chinese defence into Chinese offence/US defence. One can only imagine how that same media would report it if China announced that it was intending to patrol nuclear warships off California.
As previously noted by Michel Chossudovsky at Global Research, theSouth China Sea’s untapped reserves of oil and other minerals are a major driver in US maneouvring. China stands to have natural territorial rights to these deposits and has much more valid claim to the wealth than the US, whose counter-claims on the matter seem at best arrogant and at worst provocative. Again, one can imagine the US and mainstream media reaction if China was eyeing oil and gasfields off Alaska.
But there is a bigger geopolitical agenda here, as Global Research has consistently analysed. The increasing US militarism in Asia-Pacific is apiece with the globalization of war by the US/NATO and its allies. The shift in policy is, as the Washington Post lamely tells us, “the US reasserting itself as a leader in the Asia-Pacific after years of focusing on [illegal] wars in the Middle East.”
However, this is not a dynamic that should be viewed as somehow normal and acceptable. This is, as we have stated, an escalation of global aggression by powers that are “addicted to war” as a matter of policy.
Top of the US hit list is China. Washington’s criminal wars in Iraq and Libya have in particular been aimed at cutting China out of legitimate energy investments in the Middle and East and North Africa (and Africa generally). That in itself must be seen by Beijing as a flagrant assault on its overseas’ assets. Not content, it seems, with achieving that dispossession of vital Chinese energy interests, Washington is now pushing its insatiable appetite all the way into China’s domain. But such unprecedented aggression is made to appear by the US government and the dutiful mainstream media as a natural entitlement where refusal by the other party is perversely presented as “military plans to deny access”.
Obama’s visit to Australia this week is undoubtedly aimed at further twisting the threat to China. In Darwin, the US president is overseeing the opening of a base that will see for the first time US Marines being able to conduct war games on Australian soil. Thousands of kilometers from China, this development may at first seem inconsequential. But then we are told that the move is designed to station US military “out of the reach of Chinese ballistic missiles”. The insinuation is unmistakable and menacing: China is an imminent threat. Somehow, without issuing any such aggressive moves, Beijing is suddenly made to look as if it is prepared to launch ballistic missiles at US installations.
It is tempting to call this US-led dynamic of global war “dysfunctional”. But, disturbingly, it is not merely dysfunctional. The global war dynamic is a function of the collapse of capitalism and democracy in the US and Europe (the brutal police crackdown on Occupy protesters across the US is evidence of the latter). War on the world is the logical outcome of this failed system, as history has already shown us with the horrors of World War One and Two.
Karl Marx once noted: “History repeats itself, first as tragedy, then as farce”. To avert another “farce” in which the horrors of history are repeated, we need to once and for all challenge the root cause: capitalism.
