HOT STUFF
The Sickening Legacy of Biowarfare
By Iona Miller 8/2009
Biowarfare (BW) is part of the Holy Trinity: Gold, Oil, and Drugs - the ‘GOD’ to whom we all pledge allegiance through our consumeristic lifestyles. We are all complicit, that is, these are humanity’s projects as a whole which could reap the whirlwind. Shaping our future by braiding both systems thinking and fractal logic based on Spirituality, Heartfulness, Abilities, Process, and Experience might help us overcome our flawed thinking and cultural myopia.
"In vast laboratories in the Ministry of Peace, and in experimental stations, teams of experts are indefatigably at work searching for new and deadlier gases; or for soluble poisons capable of being produced in such quantities as to destroy the vegetation of whole continents; or for breeds of disease germs immunized against all possible antibodies." --George Orwell. 1984

"The gods have become diseases…” –Carl Jung, Secret of the Golden Flower

“[Evil is] the exercise of political power—that is, the imposition of one’s will upon others by overt or covert coercion…” Or in other words, it is the use “of political power to destroy others,” for the purpose of defending or preserving the integrity of one’s sick self (or group).” –Scott Peck, People of the Lie
"In vast laboratories in the Ministry of Peace, and in experimental stations, teams of experts are indefatigably at work searching for new and deadlier gases; or for soluble poisons capable of being produced in such quantities as to destroy the vegetation of whole continents; or for breeds of disease germs immunized against all possible antibodies." --George Orwell. 1984
Spore Wars
The abominable Trinity is War, Terror and Disease which combine in Biowarfare (BW). “Hot Stuff” is the trade term given to toxic, radiological, infectious and lethal biological and chemical agents by those in the Bioweapons Industrial Complex. The ABCs of mass destruction and biowarfare are Atomics, Biologicals, and Chemicals.
The legacy of BW may well be that no one is left to inherit it. Shall we “prey” on one another as nature dictates all mindless creatures and parasites do? What kind of “sexual revolution” goes headlong into the overdrive of autogenocide? It cannot be a sign of cultural health. The smoking gun of BW is pointed at us all with poor aim.
As an icon of biohazard, the skull reminds us all that we must die. Lost in denial, we prefer to ignore the warning wigns – biohazards ahead. Decontamination needs to begin inside our skulls, within the psyche, for only there can we find peace.
Before the era of science, people used stories about gods and heroes to explain the world, including the mysteries of disease and death. Now, instead of merely understanding the disease process, we can manufacture old and new pathogens. Eris (Discordia) makes us wonder what the world would be like without monsters and calamity.
If half of the concerns about BW are true, all else is mute. The public hates to even think about the unthinkable, except beyond the current vaccine scares for flu and infants. Each person who takes the flu vaccine risks side effects including death, or doesn't take it and risks the disease. The double bind effect is a propaganda tool.
The question is why do we institutionally poison and even kill ourselves? Rather than fantasies of defense, growth and control, we need to dig down to find and correct the faults in our cultural foundation, in our collective psyche. Our passions and our prudent and pointless paranoias are our fetters. We need to continually examine the Social Cradle from which our actions arise.
In both systems thinking and fractal logic, what are the roots of our collective self-defeating and self-destructive behavior? Freud called the death instinct Eros and Thanatos. Fromm describes “The Anatomy of Human Destructiveness,” malevolent aggression and the necrophilous personality. In the destructive act man sets himself above life, and steps beyond himself. Lack of feeling is a symptom of dissociation.
Some events are beyond our control and some are brewed up in our laboratories and institutions. BW could instantaneously make arguments over economic crisis, climate change, energy, and ecological carrying capacity or Cold War distractions moot.
We need comprehensive anticipatory design solutions that address multiple problems without creating new ones -- integrated strategies dealing with key social, economic, environmental, policy and cultural issues. We need an approach to complex subjects that has a transformative effect on the system as a whole.
Why do some of our brightest individuals fail to realize the urgent need for ending the “suicidal war” between technosphere and ecosphere? Why are we nearly oblivious to such a momentous future-shaping condition? Jung’s psychological rule for the shadow says that when an inner situation is not made conscious, it happens outside as fate.
To confront the BW specter, we have to face this hydra-headed Medusa, making it sharply visible. Naturally, that is difficult in a Classified environment where disinformation also exists. But, to ignore it is autogenocide and to allow it is, too.
We must not remain hypnotized and impotent in shaping our future. The domestic adversary is not patriotic dissent but apathy toward our collective global shadow – the death-dealing doppelganger of Gaia, the organismic aspect of the biosphere as a whole.
Practical biosafety means safeguarding research against theft and intentional misuse of biological materials (Biocrime, Bioterrorism). Every incident of bioterrorism is a biocrime. Biocrimes unlawfully affect the metabolic, biochemical, genetic, physiological, or anatomical status of living organisms.
Biosafety requires a process of hazard identification and risk assessment to most effectively identify and implement a risk management plan. Procedures describing physical security, personnel reliability, and material control and accountability define a security plan for this type of research. (Burnett, 2006)
One solution is to presume a possible worst-case scenario as has been done in countless fictional tales, including H.G. Wells’s The Shape of Things to Come, which speculates on future events from 1933 until the year 2106 and changes in the nature of war.
SHAPING our future based on Spirituality, Heartfulness, Abilities, Process, and Experience might help us overcome our flawed thinking and myopia. Wells proposed a Utopian world state but today this looks like another poisonous “cure.”
Some suggest this malignant social engineering and impossible dream itself was a toxic meme deliberately planted to raise false expectations in an entire generation for purposes of control and manipulation. Arguably, if the system is poisoned against us, we need to be very practical in our approach, working with what we have to assure a viable future.
Mythic Background
The Nemesis of our undoing may be microscopic – an invisible peril. “As below, so above.” The metaphor of Pandora’s Box with all its uncontainable ills includes both biological and fear factors. This cautionary tale might be the guiding myth of our times, a variant of the malevolent genii in the bottle. We may be going exactly where we are heading with our vampyric research that sucks the very life from our society. The word biowarfare evokes an image of terrorism.
"For ere this [the opening of Pandora's jar] the tribes of men lived on earth remote and free from ills (kakoi) and hard toil (ponoi) and heavy sickness (nosoi) which bring the Keres (Fates) upon men; for in misery men grow old quickly. But the woman took off the great lid of the jar (pithos) with her hands and scattered all these and her thought caused sorrow and mischief to men. . . countless plagues (lugra), wander amongst men; for earth is full of evils and the sea is full. Of themselves diseases (nosoi) come upon men continually by day and by night, bringing mischief to mortals silently; for wise Zeus took away speech from them. So is there no way to escape the will of Zeus.” - Hesiod, Works and Days 90 ff (trans. Evelyn-White) (Greek epic C8th or C7th B.C.).
In Egypt, even the gods became ill and sought the healing help of other divinities. Temples prepared prescriptions for divinities and humans and the methods of curing were identical. In most Homeric literature it is the arrows of the gods Apollo and Artemis which bring plague. Sudden illness was ascribed to Pan. In Latin poetry various aspects of pestilence and disease were personified, including Morbus (Disease), Pestis and Lues (Pestilence), Macies (Wasting, Emaciation), and Tabes (Corruption).
In Oedipus, Teiresias complains of grim Erinys’s (Vengeance) shriekes, and blind Furor [Lyssa, fury] and Horror [Phrike, horror], and “all the forms which spawn and lurk midst the eternal shades [i.e. in the underworld]: Luctus [Penthos, grief], tearing her hair; Morbus [Nosos, disease], scarce holding up her wearied head.”
Other baleful horrors include Letum [Ker, ruin] and Lues [Ker or Nosos, pestilence], Mors [Thanatos, death], Labor [Ponos, hardship], Tabes [Phthisis, corruption] and Dolor [Algos, distress]. The blasting Fatae [Keres, fates], quaking terror of Morbus [Nosos, disease], Macies [Ischnasia, wasting], and black Pestis [Ker or Nosos, pestilence], and mad Dolor [Algos, despair] can also be guides.
The Gods of Generation and Destruction constantly war with one another. BW has spawned numerous movies: The Andromeda Strain [1971], Outbreak [1995], 12 Monkeys [1996], Mission Impossible 2 [2000]) and books (The Coming Plague [1995], The Hot Zone [1995], The Cobra Event [1998], Rainbow Six [1999]. In Gore Vidal’s 1978 novel, Kalki, the hypocritical antihero insanely plans to end the human race using a terminal virus, a biological agent to cleanse the planet and repopulate it with his own seed. The last great plague “solves” the problem of excessive humanity. In the ambiguous film, ‘V for Vendetta’ [2005] it is difficult to say if scientists, by injecting prisoners, are trying to develop a cure for a virus or develop a biological weapon. ’12 Monkeys’ [1995] explored a similar theme of a deliberately released lethal virus through the added dimension of time travel hindsight.
Dark Biology
Bioweaponeers include scientists, medical professionals, intelligence, politicos, lawyers, technicians, military, industrialists and businessmen led by the horrible power of fanatics and arrogant leaders. The bioterrorist is in a singular class, potentially creating a literal epidemic of crime.
Operational risk management is multi-tiered and multi-dimensional. Monitoring covert offensive biological weapons research domestically and from afar has always been a daunting task. Dual-use biotechnology is rapidly spreading the knowledge, equipment, and materials needed to produce crude and sophisticated biological weapons around the world.
Nearly every nation-state in the world today has some level of biodefense and biotechnology capability. We must shape a new counter-terrorism and conceptual framework and analytical approach sophisticated and rich enough to capture current complexities and dynamics, and to create new policy tools that, taken together, improve the international community's ability to drive biological risks to the lowest possible levels. (Armstrong et al, 2008)
At least four risk management agendas or theoretical paradigms are in play: the scientific paradigm, the business paradigm, the military paradigm and the security paradigm. Each frames the landscape from a particular point of view and agenda. Their first step is rationalizing the ethically repugnant.
Drug companies, lobbies and labs are the military-industrial nexus point. ‘Hotspots’ are the targets. Chemical weapons are categorized as Nerve, Blood, Blister, and Incapacitating agents. When you leave the area you leave the risk. Plague wars are an inherent systemic risk. What could be more diabolical than war for profit? The nefarious alchemy of designer disease is fraught with collateral damage. The diseased population, not the disease, becomes the enemy.
The turning points of civilization are marked by war and technology. BW, with its rainbow of insidious killers, is the deadliest form of warfare. To understand war, we have to look at its myths. Crimes against humanity are older than war itself.
When did alchemy become biological warfare? Biowarfare, in particular, is a dark kind of penetration of our minds and bodies. This Voodoo biology, the cruelest weapon of all, trickles down to all members of society. No one is immune.
War is our societal disease; permanent war is a malignancy that devours hearts and souls. As war begs for meaning in the midst of chaos, to fathom it we have to fathom our own depths, our collective shadow, facing the looming specter of socially-engineered autogenocide. In the silent war, invisibly conceived and executed, we are weathered away by stress, shortages of jobs and resources, and threats to our autonomy. The powerless are targeted for elimination from society.
Political Plague
All war is pre-emptive population control if not outright genocide. Historically, non-conventional biowarfare destroys civilizations. Homelessness, hunger and despair accompany disease. Silent siege and silent slaughter masks the crime of indirectly killing people. Poverty and oppression are indirect killers in class war – in the new eugenics, reduced to a psychopathic formula of Behavior, Outcome and Benefit.
Even if disease were a punishment of the gods, in biowarfare it becomes a coopted weapon of mankind. Where is the god of moral disease? Does mankind seek to become god-like in this kind of meddling? In the history of biowarfare, this is how man unleashes monster and monster bites back. Where is god when humans experiment on one another, selecting the means of death? Biological warfare has its own magical properties.
Not just a spiritual fairytale, there are psychological realities behind the masks of gods and goddesses. A universal constant of cultures is that gods and goddesses have inspired fear and been associated with disease and healing, demanding sacrifices and tribute. Uniting the opposites, they paradoxically embody both cause and relief from disease. This convolution makes them gateways of transformation. These archetypes are embodiments of fractal logic.
What happens when these latent gods do make their presence known? Smallpox, for example, has been associated with the Indian goddess Shitala mata, and her Chinese counterpart T;ou-Shen Niang-Niang. Those afflicted would visit and make donations and pray for healing at the shrine. But the gods are not perfect. Maybe in biowarfare, we worship the devouring goddess of terror Kali, or the shape-shifting god Set or many-faced Shiva of chaos and destruction. All weapons collapse the opposition between moral behavior and national security.
What are we willing to give up to continue pretending that we don’t die? Is the worship of external gods and goddesses our method of taking power out of our own hands and minds. Is disease the way they get back inside? Aren’t charms and potions forms of biological warfare? Therein lies the mystery. The battlefield is within – among pathogens and poisons, intrigue, and fear of individual and global dissolution.
Prescribing Pestilence
When a pathological society prescribes debilitating or lethal agents to solve problems like overpopulation paradox ensues. The diabolical work is institutionalized, compartmentalized. No one knows how long infectious agents last in the environment. The cure is a poison, as is often the case. We prepare for rapidly transmitted virulent pandemics and are confronted with the prospect of mandatory vaccination with toxin-laden medicine for diseases that appear engineered to begin with.
Or, conversely, an old foe itself can become friend. A malaria vaccine is being developed using live infected mosquitoes to inoculate patients. Moving from the lab to the real world, the new study suggests that the whole malaria parasite is the most potent immunizing agent when used as a vaccine. Malaria parasites have become less susceptible to artemisinin, creating an urgent need to develop a vaccine.
People can develop immunity to malaria if exposed to it many times. The drug chloroquine kills parasites in the final bloodstream phase, when they are most dangerous. A Dutch study showed, combining once-a-month exposure to 12 mosquitoes with malaria parasites and simultaneous protection stimulates natural immunity. A commercial developer in Rockville, Md. is preparing weakened, irradiated immature parasites, as a ‘safer’ alternative.
The 2009 H1N1 flu virus required a new vaccine because current seasonal vaccines are ineffective against it. Its genetic code is a variant of human, swine, and avian flu strains, all mixed together into a mutant strain that current treatments cannot recognize. By 2012 labs are switching from egg-based to lab-grown cell-based production which is much quicker. Cells can be grown more rapidly than eggs and stored in far larger quantities.
Maybe the toxic cure contains mercury, or maybe it is old, or perhaps it is contaminated with animal virus or carries some other accidental or purposive hidden danger, such as Guillain-Barre Syndrome (GBS). The Health Protection Agency says, GBS “attacks the lining of the nerves, causing paralysis and inability to breathe, and can be fatal.” What is more dangerous, the propaganda, the flu or neurological effects?
There are six phases in the emergence of pandemic: Phases one and two are the low risk Interpandemic Period; three, four, and five are Pandemic Alert; and phase six a fully evolved global influenza pandemic. During phase three, the initial phase of the Pandemic Alert Period, human strains of the influenza virus begin to appear, but the risk of a large-scale outbreak is still low.
During phases four and five, the influenza virus begins to jump from person to person. Individuals who have had contact with symptomatic persons are asked to voluntarily quarantine themselves. Phase six represents a fully evolved pandemic situation. The government of the affected county or counties may implement emergency powers and impose compliance.
There is also resistance to the WHO’s global vaccination programs, based on attitudes about deity. Are the killers of humanity ecologically necessary to cull the population? Have aggressive public health campaigns against global scourges actually harmed the ecosystem by attacking and undermining indigenous spirituality?
Social action is also a response to pain and suffering. In attempting to alleviate it we can cause even more. Even if we speak in the psychological “as if” reality, the gods seem to inevitably require human sacrifice, one way or the other. But the future of our planet requires new myths and archetypes. Will it be of a cannibalistic social system that consumes its own in a perversion of human sacrifice as war, famine, crime and suicide?
With their own styles of fractal logic, they have prescribed treatments and dictated certain activities from insight, to irrelevant to counterproductive. Some being more feared than loved, they inspired reverent worship and apprehension. If some gods and goddesses are willing to remain in the background, Nemesis, Goddess of Vengeance and Retribution is not, working out her own agenda with a variety of lethal means.
If gods are diseases, what does it mean when one makes you his abode, his temple? Are the gods and goddesses desperate enough to encroach and illegally occupy us? Can this be more than superstition? Or is a trick of overweening priestcraft? Do some need to die so others can live well?
Diabolical Sacrifice
If electro-medicine devices can kill all known pathogenic bacteria, viruses, and fungi with resonant frequencies then vaccines and antibiotics become largely unnecessary. Biological warfare becomes much less fearsome, but the gods and goddesses still live on in our psyches, even if we have fantasies of defeating disease.
What price will we pay for worshipping false deities? Will a biological Ragnarok decide the fate of humanity? Will the dreadful goddess Fate (the Inescapable) or Ananke (Necessity) determine our final outcome? The ancient Greeks knew enough to fear the wrath of these gods.
Humans are sacrificed so someone gains power in life. Athena is the goddess of wisdom and warfare, but biowarfare seems to reveal her sociopathic streak. We must seek meaning as zealously as the warrior Mars seeks the aphrodisiac beauty of Victory.
What does war want from us? Do societies “need” wars and scapegoats? Are we prepared to sacrifice ourselves? Is identification or dissociation the first step to catastrophe? What disturbed thinking has brought us to this treacherous threshold? What spiritual brinksmanship might save us from a fate worse than death?
War challenges us to reinvigorate the body-politic. To declare war ‘normal’ or perpetual does not eliminate its pathologies. The state does not guarantee self-preservation. If imagination is the driving force, the idea of an enemy (conditioned by our collective shadow, media, education and beliefs) can be as powerful as any real one.
When the enemy is named, war is declared. The real enemy is fear, itself. The adversary embodies that. Enmity takes many shapes, including self-loathing and projection or scapegoating onto others. This war gets under our skin. With biowarfare, we have concocted new diseases from the ghosts of the dead. These invaders want fresh blood. But perhaps we are mortally wounded before the battle has begun.
Stealth Agents
Words as our primary psychological tools are a psiops weapon. Buzzwords can narrow the range of our thoughts, even to the point of phobia or obsession. The rhetoric of biowarfare has impact because it carries body into the fray, stirring fantasy and nightmare. There is a god or psychic element in every disease. When the cure becomes the poison, we know we are in the realm of the Trickster.
Biowarfare is a predatory Trickster, an aspect of the collective shadow, in a culture infected with conceit and cycles of revenge. Like the magician, Trickster re-makes the world according to his own vision, fashioning it to his will. Dirty trickster, dirty war.
Biowarfare has insinuated itself so deep that this harrowing situation is part of the groundstate of our lives. Bio-meddling may save or destroy us, utterly. In selfish hands, even the Elixir of Life turns into a poison. Can we out-trick the Trickster, drinking his elixir yet avoiding its toxic effects?
Bionoia
All diseases aren’t physical. Gods force themselves symptomatically into awareness. We meet our rejected and repressed sacred potential at the center of diseases, individually and collectively. If “the gods have become diseases,” is it because we have not listened to the world’s psyche? Jung speaks of the desacralization of life, of our cultural world with the rage, madness and perversity that follows. Our symptoms of psychological illness speak volumes. Can our afflictions make us more sensitive?
Even with a vocabulary that is predominantly biological, what happens if we substitute ‘fantasy’ for ‘disease’? Biowarfare is a fantasy we have painted on the global landscape to project our evil, fear, malaise and pathology – our disgust with the human race. In some sick way, we identify with the parasites. In this sense, we are already infected and may be contagious.
Speech and myth share an identity that collapses contradictions. It is a linguistic disappearing act of consciousness and conscience. The ethical question remains: how can biowarfare be justified in any circumstances? And yet, historically, such has been the case. It is always mandated by if not justified by the agenda.
Every war has its stories of overt and covert germ warfare from infected animals and blankets, to mustard gas, to germ warfare in Korea, to Agent Orange, to modern hypermutable and hybrid agents. The poppy, a symbol of Demeter and Hekate, has been weaponized in the drug war. Even computers are subject to viral attack and societies are vulnerable to memes, informational viruses with variable scales of ‘truthiness,’ misinformation and disinformation. In some sense, politics is like an infectious disease.
"In vast laboratories in the Ministry of Peace, and in experimental stations, teams of experts are indefatigably at work searching for new and deadlier gases; or for soluble poisons capable of being produced in such quantities as to destroy the vegetation of whole continents; or for breeds of disease germs immunized against all possible antibodies." --George Orwell. 1984

Lack of feeling is a symptom of dissociation.
Some events are beyond our control and some are brewed up in our laboratories and institutions. BW could instantaneously make arguments over economic crisis, climate change, energy, and ecological carrying capacity or Cold War distractions moot.
We need comprehensive anticipatory design solutions that address multiple problems without creating new ones -- integrated strategies dealing with key social, economic, environmental, policy and cultural issues. We need an approach to complex subjects that has a transformative effect on the system as a whole.
Why do some of our brightest individuals fail to realize the urgent need for ending the “suicidal war” between technosphere and ecosphere?

Practical biosafety means safeguarding research against theft and intentional misuse of biological materials (Biocrime, Bioterrorism). Every incident of bioterrorism is a biocrime. Biocrimes unlawfully affect the metabolic, biochemical, genetic, physiological, or anatomical status of living organisms.
Biosafety requires a process of hazard identification and risk assessment to most effectively identify and implement a risk management plan. Procedures describing physical security, personnel reliability, and material control and accountability define a security plan for this type of research. (Burnett, 2006)
One solution is to presume a possible worst-case scenario as has been done in countless fictional tales, including H.G. Wells’s The Shape of Things to Come, which speculates on future events from 1933 until the year 2106 and changes in the nature of war.
SHAPING our future based on Spirituality, Heartfulness, Abilities, Process, and Experience might help us overcome our flawed thinking and myopia. Wells proposed a Utopian world state but today this looks like another poisonous “cure.”
Some suggest this malignant social engineering and impossible dream itself was a toxic meme deliberately planted to raise false expectations in an entire generation for purposes of control and manipulation. Arguably, if the system is poisoned against us, we need to be very practical in our approach, working with what we have to assure a viable future.

Other baleful horrors include Letum [Ker, ruin] and Lues [Ker or Nosos, pestilence], Mors [Thanatos, death], Labor [Ponos, hardship], Tabes [Phthisis, corruption] and Dolor [Algos, distress]. The blasting Fatae [Keres, fates], quaking terror of Morbus [Nosos, disease], Macies [Ischnasia, wasting], and black Pestis [Ker or Nosos, pestilence], and mad Dolor [Algos, despair] can also be guides.
The Gods of Generation and Destruction constantly war with one another. BW has spawned numerous movies: The Andromeda Strain [1971], Outbreak [1995], 12 Monkeys [1996], Mission Impossible 2 [2000]) and books (The Coming Plague [1995], The Hot Zone [1995], The Cobra Event [1998], Rainbow Six [1999].

Dark Biology
Bioweaponeers include scientists, medical professionals, intelligence, politicos, lawyers, technicians, military, industrialists and businessmen led by the horrible power of fanatics and arrogant leaders. The bioterrorist is in a singular class, potentially creating a literal epidemic of crime.
Operational risk management is multi-tiered and multi-dimensional. Monitoring covert offensive biological weapons research domestically and from afar has always been a daunting task. Dual-use biotechnology is rapidly spreading the knowledge, equipment, and materials needed to produce crude and sophisticated biological weapons around the world.
Nearly every nation-state in the world today has some level of biodefense and biotechnology capability. We must shape a new counter-terrorism and conceptual framework and analytical approach sophisticated and rich enough to capture current complexities and dynamics, and to create new policy tools that, taken together, improve the international community's ability to drive biological risks to the lowest possible levels. (Armstrong et al, 2008)
At least four risk management agendas or theoretical paradigms are in play: the scientific paradigm, the business paradigm, the military paradigm and the security paradigm. Each frames the landscape from a particular point of view and agenda. Their first step is rationalizing the ethically repugnant.

Biological warfare has its own magical properties.
Not just a spiritual fairytale, there are psychological realities behind the masks of gods and goddesses. A universal constant of cultures is that gods and goddesses have inspired fear and been associated with disease and healing, demanding sacrifices and tribute. Uniting the opposites, they paradoxically embody both cause and relief from disease. This convolution makes them gateways of transformation. These archetypes are embodiments of fractal logic.
What happens when these latent gods do make their presence known? Smallpox, for example, has been associated with the Indian goddess Shitala mata, and her Chinese counterpart T;ou-Shen Niang-Niang. Those afflicted would visit and make donations and pray for healing at the shrine. But the gods are not perfect. Maybe in biowarfare, we worship the devouring goddess of terror Kali, or the shape-shifting god Set or many-faced Shiva of chaos and destruction. All weapons collapse the opposition between moral behavior and national security.
What are we willing to give up to continue pretending that we don’t die? Is the worship of external gods and goddesses our method of taking power out of our own hands and minds. Is disease the way they get back inside? Aren’t charms and potions forms of biological warfare? Therein lies the mystery. The battlefield is within – among pathogens and poisons, intrigue, and fear of individual and global dissolution.
Prescribing Pestilence
When a pathological society prescribes debilitating or lethal agents to solve problems like overpopulation paradox ensues. The diabolical work is institutionalized, compartmentalized. No one knows how long infectious agents last in the environment. The cure is a poison, as is often the case. We prepare for rapidly transmitted virulent pandemics and are confronted with the prospect of mandatory vaccination with toxin-laden medicine for diseases that appear engineered to begin with.
Or, conversely, an old foe itself can become friend. A malaria vaccine is being developed using live infected mosquitoes to inoculate patients. Moving from the lab to the real world, the new study suggests that the whole malaria parasite is the most potent immunizing agent when used as a vaccine. Malaria parasites have become less susceptible to artemisinin, creating an urgent need to develop a vaccine.
People can develop immunity to malaria if exposed to it many times. The drug chloroquine kills parasites in the final bloodstream phase, when they are most dangerous. A Dutch study showed, combining once-a-month exposure to 12 mosquitoes with malaria parasites and simultaneous protection stimulates natural immunity. A commercial developer in Rockville, Md. is preparing weakened, irradiated immature parasites, as a ‘safer’ alternative.
The 2009 H1N1 flu virus required a new vaccine because current seasonal vaccines are ineffective against it. Its genetic code is a variant of human, swine, and avian flu strains, all mixed together into a mutant strain that current treatments cannot recognize. By 2012 labs are switching from egg-based to lab-grown cell-based production which is much quicker. Cells can be grown more rapidly than eggs and stored in far larger quantities.
Maybe the toxic cure contains mercury, or maybe it is old, or perhaps it is contaminated with animal virus or carries some other accidental or purposive hidden danger, such as Guillain-Barre Syndrome (GBS). The Health Protection Agency says, GBS “attacks the lining of the nerves, causing paralysis and inability to breathe, and can be fatal.” What is more dangerous, the propaganda, the flu or neurological effects?
There are six phases in the emergence of pandemic: Phases one and two are the low risk Interpandemic Period; three, four, and five are Pandemic Alert; and phase six a fully evolved global influenza pandemic. During phase three, the initial phase of the Pandemic Alert Period, human strains of the influenza virus begin to appear, but the risk of a large-scale outbreak is still low.
During phases four and five, the influenza virus begins to jump from person to person. Individuals who have had contact with symptomatic persons are asked to voluntarily quarantine themselves. Phase six represents a fully evolved pandemic situation. The government of the affected county or counties may implement emergency powers and impose compliance.
There is also resistance to the WHO’s global vaccination programs, based on attitudes about deity. Are the killers of humanity ecologically necessary to cull the population? Have aggressive public health campaigns against global scourges actually harmed the ecosystem by attacking and undermining indigenous spirituality?
Social action is also a response to pain and suffering. In attempting to alleviate it we can cause even more. Even if we speak in the psychological “as if” reality, the gods seem to inevitably require human sacrifice, one way or the other. But the future of our planet requires new myths and archetypes. Will it be of a cannibalistic social system that consumes its own in a perversion of human sacrifice as war, famine, crime and suicide?
With their own styles of fractal logic, they have prescribed treatments and dictated certain activities from insight, to irrelevant to counterproductive. Some being more feared than loved, they inspired reverent worship and apprehension. If some gods and goddesses are willing to remain in the background, Nemesis, Goddess of Vengeance and Retribution is not, working out her own agenda with a variety of lethal means.
If gods are diseases, what does it mean when one makes you his abode, his temple? Are the gods and goddesses desperate enough to encroach and illegally occupy us? Can this be more than superstition? Or is a trick of overweening priestcraft? Do some need to die so others can live well?
Diabolical Sacrifice
If electro-medicine devices can kill all known pathogenic bacteria, viruses, and fungi with resonant frequencies then vaccines and antibiotics become largely unnecessary. Biological warfare becomes much less fearsome, but the gods and goddesses still live on in our psyches, even if we have fantasies of defeating disease.
What price will we pay for worshipping false deities? Will a biological Ragnarok decide the fate of humanity? Will the dreadful goddess Fate (the Inescapable) or Ananke (Necessity) determine our final outcome? The ancient Greeks knew enough to fear the wrath of these gods.
Humans are sacrificed so someone gains power in life. Athena is the goddess of wisdom and warfare, but biowarfare seems to reveal her sociopathic streak. We must seek meaning as zealously as the warrior Mars seeks the aphrodisiac beauty of Victory.
What does war want from us? Do societies “need” wars and scapegoats? Are we prepared to sacrifice ourselves? Is identification or dissociation the first step to catastrophe? What disturbed thinking has brought us to this treacherous threshold? What spiritual brinksmanship might save us from a fate worse than death?
War challenges us to reinvigorate the body-politic. To declare war ‘normal’ or perpetual does not eliminate its pathologies. The state does not guarantee self-preservation. If imagination is the driving force, the idea of an enemy (conditioned by our collective shadow, media, education and beliefs) can be as powerful as any real one.
When the enemy is named, war is declared. The real enemy is fear, itself. The adversary embodies that. Enmity takes many shapes, including self-loathing and projection or scapegoating onto others. This war gets under our skin. With biowarfare, we have concocted new diseases from the ghosts of the dead. These invaders want fresh blood. But perhaps we are mortally wounded before the battle has begun.
Stealth Agents
Words as our primary psychological tools are a psiops weapon. Buzzwords can narrow the range of our thoughts, even to the point of phobia or obsession. The rhetoric of biowarfare has impact because it carries body into the fray, stirring fantasy and nightmare. There is a god or psychic element in every disease. When the cure becomes the poison, we know we are in the realm of the Trickster.
Biowarfare is a predatory Trickster, an aspect of the collective shadow, in a culture infected with conceit and cycles of revenge. Like the magician, Trickster re-makes the world according to his own vision, fashioning it to his will. Dirty trickster, dirty war.
Biowarfare has insinuated itself so deep that this harrowing situation is part of the groundstate of our lives. Bio-meddling may save or destroy us, utterly. In selfish hands, even the Elixir of Life turns into a poison. Can we out-trick the Trickster, drinking his elixir yet avoiding its toxic effects?
Bionoia
All diseases aren’t physical. Gods force themselves symptomatically into awareness. We meet our rejected and repressed sacred potential at the center of diseases, individually and collectively. If “the gods have become diseases,” is it because we have not listened to the world’s psyche? Jung speaks of the desacralization of life, of our cultural world with the rage, madness and perversity that follows. Our symptoms of psychological illness speak volumes. Can our afflictions make us more sensitive?
Even with a vocabulary that is predominantly biological, what happens if we substitute ‘fantasy’ for ‘disease’? Biowarfare is a fantasy we have painted on the global landscape to project our evil, fear, malaise and pathology – our disgust with the human race. In some sick way, we identify with the parasites. In this sense, we are already infected and may be contagious.
Speech and myth share an identity that collapses contradictions. It is a linguistic disappearing act of consciousness and conscience. The ethical question remains: how can biowarfare be justified in any circumstances? And yet, historically, such has been the case. It is always mandated by if not justified by the agenda.
Every war has its stories of overt and covert germ warfare from infected animals and blankets, to mustard gas, to germ warfare in Korea, to Agent Orange, to modern hypermutable and hybrid agents. The poppy, a symbol of Demeter and Hekate, has been weaponized in the drug war. Even computers are subject to viral attack and societies are vulnerable to memes, informational viruses with variable scales of ‘truthiness,’ misinformation and disinformation. In some sense, politics is like an infectious disease.
Leaving No Germ Unturned

Governments have made biowarfare a political, social, economic and military priority. We have recruited, turned and made germs defect from their own ends to our own nefarious whims, mocking the goddesses Hygeia and Panacea, not to mention Gaea.
Biowarfare is also a theoretical tool and economic strategy. Biology is an arena for intimidation and the exercise of power – systematic generation of fear. Biowarfare is a virtual war on a different level of reality. It is a real dynamic which gives rise to truth and lies. Like nuclear bombs, biowarfare threatens a catastrophic endgame. What can possibly lift the curse?
Pan is the archetype of what we are not able to accept in our unconscious, phobias and obsessions with threat. Pandemic takes its name from the god Pan, inducer of panic even in the logical absence of threat. The real pandemic is fear. Pan embodies our nightmares of penetrating phallic aggression, of alien invasion of the self and collective. Like an ether, he could envelop us all.
Psychiatric casualties can be as real as any other. A hyperarousal of anxiety, panic attacks actively demonstrate that we are out of balance. Post Traumatic Stress Disorder is a chaotic state of hyper-reactive being. Perpetual panic suppresses the immune system, increasing vulnerability. With PTSD there is no prospect of personal peace.
In Chaos Theory, attractors describe the characteristic behavior of a dynamical system changing over time. Traumatic events, especially chronic events, act as “strange attractors” in consciousness which keep everything in their orbit, cycling wildly, unpredictably, but within the parameters of the attractor, reiterating the same cues over and over.
Biowarfare casts a spell. It induces its own form of shellshock, dissociating us from our humanistic core. PTSD is at an unprecedented high among military personnel and veterans, many of whom report suicidal thoughts. In PTSD, the trauma is perceived as continuously happen-ing, so one must remain hypervigilant. It’s a defensive posture. Is biowarfare a symptom of national hypervigiliance?
Biopolitics
The Cold War was “imaginary,” taking place between nation-states fighting with propaganda, nuclear deterrence, military spending, and local wars. Asymmetrical conflicts may also be ideological and include corporate interests, or transnational crimes.
The distinction between governments, intelligence agencies, organized crime and private companies has become murkier. Bioterrorism is particularly well-suited to smaller groups. Biotechnology is sophisticated but not beyond the reach of non-state actors. Biowarfare has a chilling way of leveling power in the biopolitical playing field but the distinction between war and peace blurs.
If the Cold War was “imaginary,” the asymmetric war is “virtual,” that is, until it crawls under your skin with real consequences without borders. Paradoxically, the threat may come from home or abroad. The individual may have to surrender control over his own body before fighting begins. The prospect of accidental holocaust and genocidal massacre rears its ugly head. In biopolitics the fundamental divide, the border is between those who should live and those who “should” die.
Black Death
Biowarfare, as a narrative waiting for a script, forces us to examine our social and biological paradigms. If states are living bodies, all politics is biopolitics, which implies more than metaphorical meaning for toxic memes and ideologies as degenerative diseases or malignant developments. Cultures and subcultures are social organisms. Social elements perturb the body politic. Outbreaks of induced disease are biological explosions.
“For many decades millions of animals and innumerable vials of infectious material have been shipped around the world for commercial and biological warfare purposes. This world trade in deadly agents, coupled with the gene-splicing technology developed in the 1970s, has increased the dangers of new disease outbreaks. In addition, many new viruses have been passed around between various species of animals, and some of these viruses have been adapted to human tissue. This has resulted in the production of new laboratory diseases that have potential biowarfare capabilities. The biowarfare implications of all these scientific "advances" have led some conspiracy-minded people to suspect that the hand of man might be responsible for the outbreak of one or more of these newly emerging diseases.” (Cantwell) www.paranoiamagazine.com/westnile.html
Grim Alchemy
All biological knowledge is dual – medical and lethal, defensive and strategic – fault and default. All viruses have the capacity to warp the social fabric and dissolve national boundaries. As of August 2009, the WHO plans to vaccinate more than half the World's population against the threat of swine flu pandemic. Or, is it a meme in the war for your mind, a viral pretext for military escalation? Let’s hope it isn’t a self-fulfilling prophecy.
The body politic is infected, but the diagnosis and prognosis remain unsure. Biology has lost its innocence to a slow-motion plague that never ends and to multiple assaults on good air, good water and good earth. WWIII is the silent war for your mindbody. When war directly inhabits your body you are forced to defend yourself.
Economic collapse, mind control, pandemic, famine and drought are its weapons. Air, water and the food-chain are easily weaponized. With or without cryptocratic coordination these forces are in play. Virtual tactics drive control architectures. The virtualities of scenarios collapse into contingent realities and actualities. The modeling of civilian populations remains deterministic, if nonlinear.
Risk Mismanagement
Global control establishments are run on the principles of chaos theory. Biowarfare is the strange attractor of global architectronics. Instigating turbulence is a sinister means of social control, paradoxically, where one becomes one’s own enemy. Regulating flow translates to institutional disturbance and policing populations.
Biological knowledge is power in the micro- and macrocosm. Control of free information flow is the first casualty as state violence becomes more fluid and intensifies. Brian Massumi describes programmed catastrophe as "virtualization of state violence, its becoming immanent to every co-ordinate of the social field, as unbounded space of fear.” Fear is the state-space.
Programmed catastrophe, the “accidental” architecture of control is riddled with conceptual viruses. Chaos theory demonstrates that as systemic processes cascade into dysfunctionality we are thrown into chaos and catastrophe. It’s going to be a bumpy ride. Fasten your seatbelts for social turbulence.
In complex dynamics, efforts to control the human security system perturb it, feeding the disorder itself. The switch flips from welfare to warfare. The war machine gradually infects all aspects of the state. Control dissolves in the vortical dynamics of population turbulence, cascading from micro to global scales. It has been said that the poison is in the cure. Is it also post-postmodern truism that the crime is in the solution?
Social Modulation
“Accident,” derived from the Latin accidens, signals the unanticipated, unexpected – the surprise failure of a system or product. Virilio recognized that the production of substance is simultaneously the invention of that substance’s accident. Failure seems programmed into the product from the moment of its production or implementation . . . breakdown or failure is less the deregulation of production than the production of a specific failure, or even a partial or total destruction."(Virilio 1993 211)
"It is in order to function that a social machine must not function well."(Deleuze & Guattari 1983 151) In this mutant neo-functionalism, megamachines function by breaking down; "Far from being a pathological consequence, the disequilibrium is functional and fundamental." But radical surveillance becomes paramount. In the art of war, the only way to track your enemy is to become it. Paradoxically, to defend against microbial mayhem, we have created gigantic Frankenstein monsters that can eat us alive. In magic, all potions are meant to heal, poison or bewitch, like the elixir of persuasion.
Extreme events, expected or unexpected, can cascade into consequences where a single occurrence avalanches into a series of dynamic system failures, including economic and financial values. If we “follow the money,” financial catastrophe is the consequence of a realignment of the connection between economic and financial value, with economic value often not being destroyed. After disaster there is gradual self-organization of remaining elements.
Tempest in a Testube
Biowarfare (BW) exploits both naturally occurring and genetically manipulated organisms. As for all wars, controversial toxic agents were created for the drug war: paraquat for marijuana, Fusarium fungus for cocaine and synthetic herbicides and the fungus Pleospora papaveracea for opium poppies. A dangerous wheat stem rust threatened wheat fields in Iran in 2008. Is it a covert attack or coincidence?
According to Dr. Mark Wheelis, “Anti-agricultural biowarfare and bioterrorism differ significantly from the same activities directed against humans; for instance, there exist a variety of possibilities for economic gain for perpetrators, and the list of possible perpetrators includes corporations, which may have state-of-the-art technical expertise. Furthermore, attacks are substantially easier to do: the agents aren’t necessarily hazardous to humans; delivery systems are readily available and unsophisticated; maximum effect may only require a few cases; delivery from outside the target country is possible; and an effective attack can be constructed to appear natural. This constellation of characteristics makes biological attack on the agricultural sector of at least some countries a very real threat, perhaps more so than attack on the civilian population.” nwrage.org/modules.php )
There is ample evidence that Cuba has been ground zero for covert biowarfare: In 1961, Operation Mongoose targeted cane fields and workers. Two outbreaks of swine flu, in 1971 and 1979, mandated the slaughter of hundreds of thousands of pigs. In 1981 hemorrhagic dengue fever crippled a quarter million people.
"Operation Marshall Plan" called for Havana to be blanketed with a cocktail of Venezuelan equine encephalitis and Q fever. A relentless barrage of attacks created outbreaks of exotic and previously unknown diseases targeting sugar, tobacco, citrus, coffee, egg, and dairy production. In 1990-91, bananas and honey were hit with debilitating infections. In 1996 Cubans demanded an investigation of ‘salting’ with Thrips palma, an insect parasite. (Bionoia) The US defends itself by accusing Cuba of biowarfare. Do we protest too much?
Clandestine use of biologicals is bioterrorism. Secrecy and contamination are a deadly threat. Some call the prospect of mandatory swine flu vaccination bioterrorism. BW is a multidimensional problem crossing many legal and illegal domains – human and civil rights, trade, disarmament, medicine, population control, etc. It is often tied up with other covert operations, nuclear and chemical interventions. Secret medical experiments are not new. They continue on Q fever, Valley Fever, Tularemia (rabbit fever) and more.
Each pathogen requires its own vector or delivery system. Some can be activated only in a field of specific electro-magnetic radiation. Many BW drugs, such as LSD, STP and Ecstasy, escaped their military and intelligence applications to become recreational, adding an “edge” to the “hot stuff” nickname.
Counterculture was a meme fostered in the cultural cold war by Tavistock Institute and the CIA through such groups as The Brotherhood of Eternal Love (the LSD “Hippie Mafia”), trickster Tim Leary, and Vito Paulekas & the Freaks, the dance troupe who created the 60’s LA music scene style while CIA’s “Mighty Wurlitzer” propaganda machine played America for all it was worth. Through psycho-management, counterculture became a vector for cultural disruption. Even your rebellions are programmed.
A dauntingly large number of infectious organisms and biological toxins can be used to attack people, animals and plants. Biothreats for humans encompass all branches of the microbial kingdom, including: bacteria (anthrax, plague, brucellosis, tularaemia); rickettsia (typhus, Rocky Mountain spotted fever, Q Fever); viruses (smallpox, influenza, dengue fever, various encephalitis viruses and the haemorrhagic fever agents, Ebola, Marburg and Lassa); fungi (coccidioidomycosis); and toxins (botulinum, Staphylococcal enterotoxin b, shigella, ricin, aflatoxin).
In 2002, the NATO biowarfare defense handbook listed 31 human pathogens of concern. The grim list of potential biological weapons includes hepatitis A, B and C, influenza A, Lyme disease, dengue fever and salmonella (contained in BioSafetyLevel-2 labs). Anthrax, West Nile virus, Venezuelan equine encephalitis, Eastern equine encephalitis, SARS, tuberculosis, typhus, Coxiella burnetii, Rift Valley fever, Rocky Mountain spotted fever, and yellow fever (BSL-3 labs). Bolivian and Argentine hemorrhagic fevers, Marburg virus, Ebola virus, Lassa fever, and Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever are dealt with in highest-containment BSL-4 labs.
Most research and development is still conducted at Fort Detrick, MD., Los Alamos and Lawrence Livermore labs, Pine Bluff, AR. and Dugway Proving Ground, UT. The National Bio and Agro-Defense Facility (BSL-4), which replaces Plum Island, is under construction in tornado-prone Manhattan, Kansas. (FOIA Feasibility Study here: www.thememoryhole.org/dhs/nba...tudy.pdf ) Hurricanes and earthquakes and electrical loss threaten many facilities.
Double Think
Biowarfare is a tragic Medusa that paralyzes us in our tracks in the dark snakepit of fear. To stare into her eyes is to stare into the Abyss, or some might claim the ‘Evil Eye’ of the Illuminati. Athena gave the revealing gift to Asclepius (the healer) of two drops of the Gorgon's blood. One has the power to cure and even resurrect, while the other is a deadly poison.
Medusa's blood is therefore the epitome of the 'pharmakon.' The 'pharmakos' is the scapegoat whose sacrifice establishes the dual nature of the sacred and reinforces the separation of the monster and the god, the deadly killer or the cure. Others say that Athena and Asklepius divided the blood between them; he used it to save lives, but she to destroy and instigate wars.
Such is the nature of our compartmentalized thinking about biowarfare and vaccine preparedness. Defensive “preparedness” has only led to spiraling cycles of mismanagement and abuse that perpetuate rather than eliminate the lethal threat. Contaminants in vaccines include animal diseases, microbes and heavy metals such as mercury. The scale of the killing or incapacitation can reach global proportions. Mass extermination might even be the endgame of some players if conspiracy researchers are correct.
The real issue is the fact that we have competing agendas and multiple players – bioweaponeers – and multiple agents in terms of bacteria, viruses, fungi; multiple targets within humans, plants, and animals; multiple environments in which that can occur. How do we mobilize against an unexpected threat, whether it is natural or engineered? Experts point out, we have no surge on demand manufacturing capability even once a pathogen is identified. Multiple scenarios demand a wide spectrum of defense postures.
Scenarios are endless: if you want to hire a group of biomercenaries to put on an island somewhere, you can write our own scenario. Do you want to disable or neutralize the enemy? Do you want to kill millions or do you actually just want to sustain a pattern of psychological operations against the adversary? Do you actually want to declare a priori that you will strike a city every third Friday, not to kill people, but merely show an ability to render society vulnerable and erode confidence in government?
Sinister Research
Even without nefarious intent, epidemics on our overpopulated planet are inevitable, a matter of not if, but when. Scientists have just identified a genomic "signature" in circulating blood that reveals exposure to common upper respiratory viruses, like the cold or flu, even before symptoms appear. Genomic signature in blood identifies underlying viral infection Access to critical care and profiling of pathogens may determine who lives and who dies when vaccines pose their own dangers. Diagnostic biotech sensors – so-called zebra chips -- are being developed to fill this gap.
Faster identification saves lives when pathogens first appear imbedded in the medical system. Similar symptomology compounds the diagnostic problem. Identifying those infected but presymptomatic is valuable. In terms of international public health surveillance, the ability of natural infectious disease to spread globally becomes a national security threat in its own right.
This “silent war” has raged on its own throughout human history, taking advantage of our vulnerability to drugs, toxins, chemicals and pathogens. Since ancient times, poisons, smallpox and plague were weaponized. Sewage and rotting bodies used as ammunition in medieval sieges were the ultimate biological weapons.
By WWII, Japan’s Unit 731 honed biological weapons (anthrax, cholera, plague and typhoid) to an art of war. As victors, the US eagerly grabbed their research. Nazi scientists brought BW research to the U.S. under Project Paperclip. The U.S. and Soviet Union investigated numerous pathogens and delivery systems, certainly spying and even stealing from each other. Poor control in deployment makes BW of little military use because pathogens can spread out of control. But when nations claim to abandon biowarfare or other strategies it usually means R&D has just gone “dark.”
Millennial “Bug”
Nearly everyone is vaccinated against polio and smallpox. The process of doing so in the last century exposed many to carcinogenic monkey virus, whose legacy we see today. Cancer-causing monkey SV40 virus contaminated POLIO vaccine. Once again there was poison in the cure.
. “A monkey virus linked to human cancers may have contaminated the oral polio vaccine for years after the U.S. government ordered manufacturers to remove it. The Chronicle reported in 2001 that the simian virus SV40 had contaminated early polio vaccine given to millions of Americans. When health officials discovered in 1961 that SV40 caused malignant tumors in lab animals, they ordered the virus eliminated from all future vaccine. But internal memos from Lederle Laboratories, the chief producer of polio vaccine in the United States, indicate SV40 may not have been completely removed. According to one memo, SV40 was found in three of 15 lots of the oral vaccine seven months after the federal directive was issued in March 1961. Lederle released the contaminated vaccine to the public anyway, the memo shows. Scientists discovered SV40 in the Salk polio vaccine in 1960. By then as many as 30 million Americans had been given injections of the SV40-tainted polio vaccine, which was first licensed in 1955. In recent years more than 60 scientific studies have found SV40 in rare human brain, bone and lung-related cancers, the same kinds of tumors the virus caused in laboratory animals. Some scientists believe SV40 may play a role in causing those cancers. The Lederle documents, which were obtained by Philadelphia attorney Stanley Kops in litigation not related to SV40, raise the possibility the virus might have been transmitted by contaminated oral vaccine, licensed for production in 1962.” www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi
Y2K wasn’t the real Millennial Bug of the 21st century. History may show it comes from the singular act in 1997 of digging and retrieving virus from Spanish Flu victims of the 1918 Spanish flu pandemic frozen in permafrost near an Eskimo village. This pandemic killed 50 million people worldwide. Frozen cadaver tissue wad shipped to the Armed Forces Institute of Pathology in Rockville, Maryland. The virus’s genetic RNA material was identified and the 1918 Spanish flu was successfully brought back to life. Scientists researching pandemic flu strains have, since the recreation of the 1918 flu, been playing fast and loose with flu samples.
There is ample evidence to suggest this virus was combined with others. It escaped the lab, either deliberately or accidentally and has created a situation that allegedly warrants global vaccination. The genetic material has been re-engineered to synthetically create what is now known as the A/H1N1 virus, or as the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) calls it, the “novel flu.”
The A/H1N1 influenza contains genetic material from two strains of swine flu, two strains of human flu, and a single strain of avian flu. Its genetic code is now in public databases, where other researchers can download it to conduct experiments. Scientists from the University of Wisconsin and the National Microbiology Laboratory in Canada have already collaborated to reconstruct the virus from the publicly available sequence. How easy would it be for a bioterrorist to exploit the same information for malevolent ends?
H digging up Spanish flu victims; engineering bird and swine flu.>
Though they can be contaminated with animal viruses or mercury used as a preservative, in 2009, government officials say vaccine makers and federal officials will be immune from lawsuits that result from any new swine flu vaccine, under a document signed by Secretary of Health and Human Services Kathleen Sebelius.
Dirty Secrets
Chemtrail protestors claim this ultimate poisonous aerosol is a deliberate blanket attack on the populace. Immunosuppresant barium salts, mycoplasma and pollutants are named culprits. It wouldn’t be the first time that mass distribution was inflicted on the unwitting public at large.
The BW problem is both domestic and transnational. Despite broad-sweeping 1972 treaties, we have found new means to deliberately weaponize natural and artificially engineered viruses and bacteria. Many claim AIDS and SARS were genetically-engineered [ ]. Other abuses range from mismanagement, to dirty vaccines, to secret use of uninformed civilians as guinea pigs, to genetic targeting and more. In most cases, government or military “spyentists” claim the public has no “need to know.” It is just ‘psiops,’ as usual, full-spectrum psychophysical control in action.
Even more horrifically, state-sponsored programs can escape or be hijacked as bioterrorism threats. Despite treaty bans, a relentless search for the “superbug” continues. In 1989, Vladimir Pasechnik defected to Britain with tales of a genetically-manipulated “superplague” and missile delivery systems. When the Soviet system broke down, scientists put their expertise for sale in the black market. Massive biodefense spending has not made us immune.
Weapons of Mass Infection
Classified secrets are tightly held until something escapes high-containment labs. In the mid-70s lyme disease apparently escaped from Plum Island, a Department of Agriculture facility near New York City that doubles as an Army BW research facility. It is a truism that “the poison is in the cure.” When the defense vaccines pose their own dangers, the system itself is sick, presenting a double bind.
Who knows what demons lurk in clandestine freezers and what might yet be created, despite the Biological Weapons Convention? Even cults have used poisonous salmonella, ricin, and lethal sarin gas in their deadly plots. [ ] There are accusations that emerging diseases, such as Swine and Bird flu are genetically-engineered and that West Nile Virus was weaponized.
The mind reels over potential technological revolutions in nano- and genetic agents for evil or good. In May 2009, a nanosuit infused with Reactive Surface Treatment (RST) that repels and kills anthrax spores was announced. Designed to protect troops from BW agents, other applications of self-cleaning fabric include antibacterial sportswear.
Military fabrics can also be oil-resistant, self-extinguishing, or chemical agent-reactive. www.federallabs.org/pdf/Apri...sLink.pdf Biotech meets nanotech in smart-systems biowarfare detection devices -- photonic and nanotronic biosensor arrays that can immediately detect pathogens and insure public safety.
Leading biotech and biowarfare expert, George Poste is also a member of the Council on Foreign Relations. www.physorg.com/news6242.html In 2005, the CFR hosted a conference on the global threat of pandemic influenza, a Who’s Who of infectious diseases and global health, including a session on what the world would look like after a pandemic. docs.google.com/gview
Hoyle and Wickramasinghe at the University of Wales at Cardiff suggest that flu epidemics and perhaps other illness can rain down on us from space. They present data correlating high sunspot activity with flu pandemics (large-scale epidemics), driven by a roughly 11-year cycle of solar activity. [ ] Who knows what else space might have in store for humanity but can it be any worse than the heinous measures we inflict on ourselves? Widescale experimentation with mycoplasmas and other agents may already have made us all ticking timebombs. [ ]
“Wet Operations”
Furthermore, being a microbiologist can be hazardous to your health. Between Nov 12, 2001 and Mar 25, 2002, 13 renowned microbiologists mysteriously died in less than five months. The list of those who have died under mysterious circumstances keeps growing from LSD-patsy Frank Olson (d. 1953) to the “suicide” of accused anthrax murderer, the August 2008 “suicide” of Bruce E. Ivins, (Amerithrax pathogen) and the “suicide” of British whistleblower Dr. David Kelley in July 2003.
A transnational deadly pattern emerges. By 2005, 40 world-class micro-biologists expired in less than 4 years, all under suspicious circumstances. All worked for a government, or government contractors, on projects related to bio-terrorism, flu pandemics, or anthrax. Then it was discovered that our government was involved in strange experiments that involve exhuming bodies of people that were killed by the 1918 Spanish flu, and genetically engineered flu viruses.
Kelly was head of biological defense at the British secretive military research establishment of Porton Down, Wiltshire, and the brain behind much of the West's germ warfare programs. According to Burghardt (2009), Kelly may have been a target of Dick Cheney's “Executive Assassination Ring.” It’s hard to say what was more damning, his accusations that Saddam Hussein had no WMDs or his direct knowledge of genetically-targeted bioweapons and nefarious experiments.
Kelly was linked to the Britain's intelligence services MI5 and MI6, GCHQ, the Ministry of Defense (MoD), the Foreign Office and foreign spy agencies - including Israel's notorious Mossad (since 1995). A documentary, “Anthrax Wars,” is set for release in 2009. (Reid)
Kelly helped orchestrate the defection of Vladimir Pasechnik in 1989 so he had knowledge of horrifying Soviet research, as well. As chief director of the Institute for Ultra-Pure Biological preparations in St Petersburg, Pasechnik had developed killer germs. 'I want the West to know of this. There must be a way to stop this madness,' he told Dr Kelly in a safe house. (Reid)
Microbiologist Dr. Vladimir Pasechnik headed the Soviet bioweapons program at the Biopreparat facility. He was found dead in Wiltshire, England, near his home. In good health, he died suddenly in 2001 from a stroke some believe was induced by a nerve agent that mimics a stroke and leaves no traces. This began a string of mysterious deaths and obvious murders of world-class microbiologists, including Dr. Kelly. www.stevequayle.com/News.ale...ists.html

On the Warpath
Biolgocial research conducted on Indian reservations is not subject to scrutiny by the federal government because they are sovereign nations. In the 70s, Wackenhut Corporation attempted to sell "biological warfare viruses" and vaccine kits to the U.S. government to be used against “small countries bordering Albania or large countries bordering the Soviet Union.” [ ]
William C. Patrick, III developed the process by which anthrax spores could be concentrated at the level of one trillion spores per gram. Patrick worked with Kanatjan Alibekov, known as "Ken Alibek" since he defected to the US in 1992. Remember, Alibek served as manager for a CIA biological warfare program in 1998. In Russia, Alibek was the No. 2 expert in the FSU's biowarfare program, under Vladimir Pasechnik.
Ken Alibek became President of Hadron Advanced Biosystems, a subsidiary of Alexandria, Virginia-based Hadron, Inc., specializing in “the development of technical solutions for the intelligence community.” It received millions in funding for medical biodefense research in the field of non-specific immunity from the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, the US Army Medical Research and Materiel Command, and the NIH.
Whistleblower Dr. David Kelly’s highly-questionable ‘suicide’ happened while exposing WMD fraud as well as a potentially bigger scandal -- his own secret dealings in germ warfare with the apartheid regime in South Africa. He claimed there is a covert anthrax war, a global black market in anthrax involved in mystery “suicides” of five government germ warfare scientists from around the world. Kelly described “many dark actors playing games” of bioterrorism.
This Germ’s for You
The trigger has already been pulled on the smoking gun of biowarfare and we were all in the crosshairs. In the 1950s-70s, pathogenic mycoplasma were covertly released in top-secret “mock” attacks in the US and Canada. Dr Maurice Hilleman, chief virologist for the pharmaceutical company Merck Sharp & Dohme, stated that this disease agent is now carried by everybody in North America and possibly most people throughout the world. (Scott, 2001) Is this what they mean by “better living through chemistry?”
Testing open air dispersal on the domestic front contaminated virtually everyone and set time bombs ticking in many. The neurodegenerative and systemic-degenerative diseases are contagious but only manifest as active diseases if the recipient is genetically pre-disposed, has a compromised immune system, or a triggering trauma.
A Washington DC Microbiologist links Gulf War Syndrome (GWS) to the anthrax story, which led to the suspicious death of “mad scientist,” hypno-patsy Dr. Bruce Ivins. Mycoplasma contaminated anthrax vaccines were used in the Gulf Wars, giving rise to GWS. Mycoplasmas are normally benign but have been bioengineered into “new” diseases that are reaching epidemic proportions.
Similar to bacteria, mycoplasma are a group of small microorganisms without cell walls, between cells and viruses. They can invade and burrow very deep into the cell causing chromic infections. Normal mycoplasma infections produce relatively benign diseases limited to particular tissue sites or organs, but GWS strains are very pathogenic, colonize a variety of organs and tissues, and are very difficult to treat.
Mass Exposure
According to Dr. Shyh-Ching Lo, senior researcher at The Armed Forces Institute of Pathology and one of America’s top mycoplasma researchers, infectious mycoplasmas are implicated in AIDS, cancer, chronic fatigue syndrome, GWS, Crohn’s colitis, Type I diabetes, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s disease, Wegener’s disease and collagen-vascular diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and Alzheimer’s. (Scott) Lyme Disease and West Nile Virus were also weaponized when the military explored mosquitoes as a delivery vector. Ironically, our biodefense program has created the very threat to US citizens it was meant to thwart.
Anthrax vaccine production continues. In February 1998, State Health Director James Haveman said the (Lansing-based) state- owned Michigan Biologic Products Institute would continue making the vaccine being given to U.S. active and reserve military personnel under a recent Pentagon directive. The mycoplasma story is associated with Michigan State in Lansing, Michigan. Tavistock is associated with Michigan University in Ann Arbor.
There are 400 bioweapon labs across the U.S. 113 of them refuse to publicly disclose their research. When it comes to Germ Warfare, we have met the enemy and unfortunately, it is us. Medical warfare also includes non-military methods exploiting existing civilian infrastructure to control and/or reduce target populations. As the adage goes, “It is never the same after a war.”
Bio-Terror has Already Affected Us All
"Scientists at The Institute for Molecular Medicine have found that slightly under one-half of the very sick Gulf War Illness patients in a pilot study with the signs and symptoms of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome or Fibromyalgia have chronic invasive infections involving certain uncommon mycoplasmas, such as Mycoplasma fermentans (incognitus strain)." --Dr. Garth Nicolson
A Washington-based microbiologist, who wishes to remain cautiously anonymous for obvious reasons, claims there are many unresolved issues surrounding anthrax and anthrax vaccines. He links covert military experiments to creation of toxic mycoplasmas and Gulf War Syndrome spread through contaminated anthrax vaccine. But who would knowingly do such a thing and why? They’ve done it before and they’ll do it again.
Could the same forces be behind the August 2008 “apparent suicide” of hypno-patsy, Army research scientist Dr. Bruce E. Ivins? The Fort Detrick microbiologist worked on a biodefense vaccine for anthrax but wound up accused as the “mad scientist” behind the Anthrax Mailings of 2001 that proved fatal for five victims. Now dead, his innocence until proven guilty is forever moot. Is he another “suicide solution”?
Thanatopolitics: Social Power, Accelerated Social Change / Culled Population
We can follow the backtrail to governmentally sponsored anthrax to Gulf War Syndrome by following the “usual suspects.” When it comes to social or biological engineering, especially eugenics, the prime suspect is the perennial chimera of the globalist agenda, Tavistock Institute in Britain and one of its primary U.S. outposts, Michigan University, Ann Arbor.
Touchless Torture
Tavistock thinktank was created for healing shell shock but soon turned into the pioneering mass brainwashing institute with a globalist agenda. The precursor to the infamous CIA MK-ULTRA mind control program, Tavistock’s agenda is used to topple governments and engineer cultures. Tavistock’s spycologists are the founding fathers of mind control.
Tavistock’s goal is to control entire populations with the use of drugs, electronics and sophisticated mind control techniques, including group dynamics and lockdown propaganda. Research into the use of microwave weapons and their use for mind control began there in the 1950s. Tavistock was behind the creation and direction of the Office of Naval Intelligence (ONI).
The Cryptocracy, through economics and mass mind control is involved in the transformation or "alchemical processing" of mass consciousness by psychological mind manipulation. With the help of these foundations and secret societies, experiments in world shaping continue multimedia and military campaigns. The goal is to seed and control megatrends so the masses live as controlled puppets – wage slaves -- of the ruling elite from cradle to grave.
Their “endgame,” Thanatopolitics (autogenocide), includes radical population reduction employing a variety of pathogens and other means. Thus, Tavistock wrote the blueprint for germ biowarfare (BW) as well as drug and chemical assaults (CBW). A thinktank for the global shadow government, Tavistock plays a pivotal role in shaping political, social, educational, and economic 'opinions', especially in the United States. It manufactures trends, nations and wars.

Biowarfare is also a theoretical tool and economic strategy. Biology is an arena for intimidation and the exercise of power – systematic generation of fear. Biowarfare is a virtual war on a different level of reality. It is a real dynamic which gives rise to truth and lies. Like nuclear bombs, biowarfare threatens a catastrophic endgame. What can possibly lift the curse?
Pan is the archetype of what we are not able to accept in our unconscious, phobias and obsessions with threat. Pandemic takes its name from the god Pan, inducer of panic even in the logical absence of threat. The real pandemic is fear. Pan embodies our nightmares of penetrating phallic aggression, of alien invasion of the self and collective. Like an ether, he could envelop us all.
Psychiatric casualties can be as real as any other. A hyperarousal of anxiety, panic attacks actively demonstrate that we are out of balance. Post Traumatic Stress Disorder is a chaotic state of hyper-reactive being. Perpetual panic suppresses the immune system, increasing vulnerability. With PTSD there is no prospect of personal peace.
In Chaos Theory, attractors describe the characteristic behavior of a dynamical system changing over time. Traumatic events, especially chronic events, act as “strange attractors” in consciousness which keep everything in their orbit, cycling wildly, unpredictably, but within the parameters of the attractor, reiterating the same cues over and over.
Biowarfare casts a spell. It induces its own form of shellshock, dissociating us from our humanistic core. PTSD is at an unprecedented high among military personnel and veterans, many of whom report suicidal thoughts. In PTSD, the trauma is perceived as continuously happen-ing, so one must remain hypervigilant. It’s a defensive posture. Is biowarfare a symptom of national hypervigiliance?
Biopolitics
The Cold War was “imaginary,” taking place between nation-states fighting with propaganda, nuclear deterrence, military spending, and local wars. Asymmetrical conflicts may also be ideological and include corporate interests, or transnational crimes.
The distinction between governments, intelligence agencies, organized crime and private companies has become murkier. Bioterrorism is particularly well-suited to smaller groups. Biotechnology is sophisticated but not beyond the reach of non-state actors. Biowarfare has a chilling way of leveling power in the biopolitical playing field but the distinction between war and peace blurs.
If the Cold War was “imaginary,” the asymmetric war is “virtual,” that is, until it crawls under your skin with real consequences without borders. Paradoxically, the threat may come from home or abroad. The individual may have to surrender control over his own body before fighting begins. The prospect of accidental holocaust and genocidal massacre rears its ugly head. In biopolitics the fundamental divide, the border is between those who should live and those who “should” die.
Black Death
Biowarfare, as a narrative waiting for a script, forces us to examine our social and biological paradigms. If states are living bodies, all politics is biopolitics, which implies more than metaphorical meaning for toxic memes and ideologies as degenerative diseases or malignant developments. Cultures and subcultures are social organisms. Social elements perturb the body politic. Outbreaks of induced disease are biological explosions.
“For many decades millions of animals and innumerable vials of infectious material have been shipped around the world for commercial and biological warfare purposes. This world trade in deadly agents, coupled with the gene-splicing technology developed in the 1970s, has increased the dangers of new disease outbreaks. In addition, many new viruses have been passed around between various species of animals, and some of these viruses have been adapted to human tissue. This has resulted in the production of new laboratory diseases that have potential biowarfare capabilities. The biowarfare implications of all these scientific "advances" have led some conspiracy-minded people to suspect that the hand of man might be responsible for the outbreak of one or more of these newly emerging diseases.” (Cantwell) www.paranoiamagazine.com/westnile.html
Grim Alchemy
All biological knowledge is dual – medical and lethal, defensive and strategic – fault and default. All viruses have the capacity to warp the social fabric and dissolve national boundaries. As of August 2009, the WHO plans to vaccinate more than half the World's population against the threat of swine flu pandemic. Or, is it a meme in the war for your mind, a viral pretext for military escalation? Let’s hope it isn’t a self-fulfilling prophecy.
The body politic is infected, but the diagnosis and prognosis remain unsure. Biology has lost its innocence to a slow-motion plague that never ends and to multiple assaults on good air, good water and good earth. WWIII is the silent war for your mindbody. When war directly inhabits your body you are forced to defend yourself.
Economic collapse, mind control, pandemic, famine and drought are its weapons. Air, water and the food-chain are easily weaponized. With or without cryptocratic coordination these forces are in play. Virtual tactics drive control architectures. The virtualities of scenarios collapse into contingent realities and actualities. The modeling of civilian populations remains deterministic, if nonlinear.
Risk Mismanagement
Global control establishments are run on the principles of chaos theory. Biowarfare is the strange attractor of global architectronics. Instigating turbulence is a sinister means of social control, paradoxically, where one becomes one’s own enemy. Regulating flow translates to institutional disturbance and policing populations.
Biological knowledge is power in the micro- and macrocosm. Control of free information flow is the first casualty as state violence becomes more fluid and intensifies. Brian Massumi describes programmed catastrophe as "virtualization of state violence, its becoming immanent to every co-ordinate of the social field, as unbounded space of fear.” Fear is the state-space.
Programmed catastrophe, the “accidental” architecture of control is riddled with conceptual viruses. Chaos theory demonstrates that as systemic processes cascade into dysfunctionality we are thrown into chaos and catastrophe. It’s going to be a bumpy ride. Fasten your seatbelts for social turbulence.
In complex dynamics, efforts to control the human security system perturb it, feeding the disorder itself. The switch flips from welfare to warfare. The war machine gradually infects all aspects of the state. Control dissolves in the vortical dynamics of population turbulence, cascading from micro to global scales. It has been said that the poison is in the cure. Is it also post-postmodern truism that the crime is in the solution?
Social Modulation
“Accident,” derived from the Latin accidens, signals the unanticipated, unexpected – the surprise failure of a system or product. Virilio recognized that the production of substance is simultaneously the invention of that substance’s accident. Failure seems programmed into the product from the moment of its production or implementation . . . breakdown or failure is less the deregulation of production than the production of a specific failure, or even a partial or total destruction."(Virilio 1993 211)
"It is in order to function that a social machine must not function well."(Deleuze & Guattari 1983 151) In this mutant neo-functionalism, megamachines function by breaking down; "Far from being a pathological consequence, the disequilibrium is functional and fundamental." But radical surveillance becomes paramount. In the art of war, the only way to track your enemy is to become it. Paradoxically, to defend against microbial mayhem, we have created gigantic Frankenstein monsters that can eat us alive. In magic, all potions are meant to heal, poison or bewitch, like the elixir of persuasion.
Extreme events, expected or unexpected, can cascade into consequences where a single occurrence avalanches into a series of dynamic system failures, including economic and financial values. If we “follow the money,” financial catastrophe is the consequence of a realignment of the connection between economic and financial value, with economic value often not being destroyed. After disaster there is gradual self-organization of remaining elements.
Tempest in a Testube
Biowarfare (BW) exploits both naturally occurring and genetically manipulated organisms. As for all wars, controversial toxic agents were created for the drug war: paraquat for marijuana, Fusarium fungus for cocaine and synthetic herbicides and the fungus Pleospora papaveracea for opium poppies. A dangerous wheat stem rust threatened wheat fields in Iran in 2008. Is it a covert attack or coincidence?
According to Dr. Mark Wheelis, “Anti-agricultural biowarfare and bioterrorism differ significantly from the same activities directed against humans; for instance, there exist a variety of possibilities for economic gain for perpetrators, and the list of possible perpetrators includes corporations, which may have state-of-the-art technical expertise. Furthermore, attacks are substantially easier to do: the agents aren’t necessarily hazardous to humans; delivery systems are readily available and unsophisticated; maximum effect may only require a few cases; delivery from outside the target country is possible; and an effective attack can be constructed to appear natural. This constellation of characteristics makes biological attack on the agricultural sector of at least some countries a very real threat, perhaps more so than attack on the civilian population.” nwrage.org/modules.php )
There is ample evidence that Cuba has been ground zero for covert biowarfare: In 1961, Operation Mongoose targeted cane fields and workers. Two outbreaks of swine flu, in 1971 and 1979, mandated the slaughter of hundreds of thousands of pigs. In 1981 hemorrhagic dengue fever crippled a quarter million people.
"Operation Marshall Plan" called for Havana to be blanketed with a cocktail of Venezuelan equine encephalitis and Q fever. A relentless barrage of attacks created outbreaks of exotic and previously unknown diseases targeting sugar, tobacco, citrus, coffee, egg, and dairy production. In 1990-91, bananas and honey were hit with debilitating infections. In 1996 Cubans demanded an investigation of ‘salting’ with Thrips palma, an insect parasite. (Bionoia) The US defends itself by accusing Cuba of biowarfare. Do we protest too much?
Clandestine use of biologicals is bioterrorism. Secrecy and contamination are a deadly threat. Some call the prospect of mandatory swine flu vaccination bioterrorism. BW is a multidimensional problem crossing many legal and illegal domains – human and civil rights, trade, disarmament, medicine, population control, etc. It is often tied up with other covert operations, nuclear and chemical interventions. Secret medical experiments are not new. They continue on Q fever, Valley Fever, Tularemia (rabbit fever) and more.
Each pathogen requires its own vector or delivery system. Some can be activated only in a field of specific electro-magnetic radiation. Many BW drugs, such as LSD, STP and Ecstasy, escaped their military and intelligence applications to become recreational, adding an “edge” to the “hot stuff” nickname.
Counterculture was a meme fostered in the cultural cold war by Tavistock Institute and the CIA through such groups as The Brotherhood of Eternal Love (the LSD “Hippie Mafia”), trickster Tim Leary, and Vito Paulekas & the Freaks, the dance troupe who created the 60’s LA music scene style while CIA’s “Mighty Wurlitzer” propaganda machine played America for all it was worth. Through psycho-management, counterculture became a vector for cultural disruption. Even your rebellions are programmed.
A dauntingly large number of infectious organisms and biological toxins can be used to attack people, animals and plants. Biothreats for humans encompass all branches of the microbial kingdom, including: bacteria (anthrax, plague, brucellosis, tularaemia); rickettsia (typhus, Rocky Mountain spotted fever, Q Fever); viruses (smallpox, influenza, dengue fever, various encephalitis viruses and the haemorrhagic fever agents, Ebola, Marburg and Lassa); fungi (coccidioidomycosis); and toxins (botulinum, Staphylococcal enterotoxin b, shigella, ricin, aflatoxin).
In 2002, the NATO biowarfare defense handbook listed 31 human pathogens of concern. The grim list of potential biological weapons includes hepatitis A, B and C, influenza A, Lyme disease, dengue fever and salmonella (contained in BioSafetyLevel-2 labs). Anthrax, West Nile virus, Venezuelan equine encephalitis, Eastern equine encephalitis, SARS, tuberculosis, typhus, Coxiella burnetii, Rift Valley fever, Rocky Mountain spotted fever, and yellow fever (BSL-3 labs). Bolivian and Argentine hemorrhagic fevers, Marburg virus, Ebola virus, Lassa fever, and Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever are dealt with in highest-containment BSL-4 labs.
Most research and development is still conducted at Fort Detrick, MD., Los Alamos and Lawrence Livermore labs, Pine Bluff, AR. and Dugway Proving Ground, UT. The National Bio and Agro-Defense Facility (BSL-4), which replaces Plum Island, is under construction in tornado-prone Manhattan, Kansas. (FOIA Feasibility Study here: www.thememoryhole.org/dhs/nba...tudy.pdf ) Hurricanes and earthquakes and electrical loss threaten many facilities.
Double Think
Biowarfare is a tragic Medusa that paralyzes us in our tracks in the dark snakepit of fear. To stare into her eyes is to stare into the Abyss, or some might claim the ‘Evil Eye’ of the Illuminati. Athena gave the revealing gift to Asclepius (the healer) of two drops of the Gorgon's blood. One has the power to cure and even resurrect, while the other is a deadly poison.
Medusa's blood is therefore the epitome of the 'pharmakon.' The 'pharmakos' is the scapegoat whose sacrifice establishes the dual nature of the sacred and reinforces the separation of the monster and the god, the deadly killer or the cure. Others say that Athena and Asklepius divided the blood between them; he used it to save lives, but she to destroy and instigate wars.
Such is the nature of our compartmentalized thinking about biowarfare and vaccine preparedness. Defensive “preparedness” has only led to spiraling cycles of mismanagement and abuse that perpetuate rather than eliminate the lethal threat. Contaminants in vaccines include animal diseases, microbes and heavy metals such as mercury. The scale of the killing or incapacitation can reach global proportions. Mass extermination might even be the endgame of some players if conspiracy researchers are correct.
The real issue is the fact that we have competing agendas and multiple players – bioweaponeers – and multiple agents in terms of bacteria, viruses, fungi; multiple targets within humans, plants, and animals; multiple environments in which that can occur. How do we mobilize against an unexpected threat, whether it is natural or engineered? Experts point out, we have no surge on demand manufacturing capability even once a pathogen is identified. Multiple scenarios demand a wide spectrum of defense postures.
Scenarios are endless: if you want to hire a group of biomercenaries to put on an island somewhere, you can write our own scenario. Do you want to disable or neutralize the enemy? Do you want to kill millions or do you actually just want to sustain a pattern of psychological operations against the adversary? Do you actually want to declare a priori that you will strike a city every third Friday, not to kill people, but merely show an ability to render society vulnerable and erode confidence in government?
Sinister Research
Even without nefarious intent, epidemics on our overpopulated planet are inevitable, a matter of not if, but when. Scientists have just identified a genomic "signature" in circulating blood that reveals exposure to common upper respiratory viruses, like the cold or flu, even before symptoms appear. Genomic signature in blood identifies underlying viral infection Access to critical care and profiling of pathogens may determine who lives and who dies when vaccines pose their own dangers. Diagnostic biotech sensors – so-called zebra chips -- are being developed to fill this gap.
Faster identification saves lives when pathogens first appear imbedded in the medical system. Similar symptomology compounds the diagnostic problem. Identifying those infected but presymptomatic is valuable. In terms of international public health surveillance, the ability of natural infectious disease to spread globally becomes a national security threat in its own right.
This “silent war” has raged on its own throughout human history, taking advantage of our vulnerability to drugs, toxins, chemicals and pathogens. Since ancient times, poisons, smallpox and plague were weaponized. Sewage and rotting bodies used as ammunition in medieval sieges were the ultimate biological weapons.
By WWII, Japan’s Unit 731 honed biological weapons (anthrax, cholera, plague and typhoid) to an art of war. As victors, the US eagerly grabbed their research. Nazi scientists brought BW research to the U.S. under Project Paperclip. The U.S. and Soviet Union investigated numerous pathogens and delivery systems, certainly spying and even stealing from each other. Poor control in deployment makes BW of little military use because pathogens can spread out of control. But when nations claim to abandon biowarfare or other strategies it usually means R&D has just gone “dark.”
Millennial “Bug”
Nearly everyone is vaccinated against polio and smallpox. The process of doing so in the last century exposed many to carcinogenic monkey virus, whose legacy we see today. Cancer-causing monkey SV40 virus contaminated POLIO vaccine. Once again there was poison in the cure.
. “A monkey virus linked to human cancers may have contaminated the oral polio vaccine for years after the U.S. government ordered manufacturers to remove it. The Chronicle reported in 2001 that the simian virus SV40 had contaminated early polio vaccine given to millions of Americans. When health officials discovered in 1961 that SV40 caused malignant tumors in lab animals, they ordered the virus eliminated from all future vaccine. But internal memos from Lederle Laboratories, the chief producer of polio vaccine in the United States, indicate SV40 may not have been completely removed. According to one memo, SV40 was found in three of 15 lots of the oral vaccine seven months after the federal directive was issued in March 1961. Lederle released the contaminated vaccine to the public anyway, the memo shows. Scientists discovered SV40 in the Salk polio vaccine in 1960. By then as many as 30 million Americans had been given injections of the SV40-tainted polio vaccine, which was first licensed in 1955. In recent years more than 60 scientific studies have found SV40 in rare human brain, bone and lung-related cancers, the same kinds of tumors the virus caused in laboratory animals. Some scientists believe SV40 may play a role in causing those cancers. The Lederle documents, which were obtained by Philadelphia attorney Stanley Kops in litigation not related to SV40, raise the possibility the virus might have been transmitted by contaminated oral vaccine, licensed for production in 1962.” www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi
Y2K wasn’t the real Millennial Bug of the 21st century. History may show it comes from the singular act in 1997 of digging and retrieving virus from Spanish Flu victims of the 1918 Spanish flu pandemic frozen in permafrost near an Eskimo village. This pandemic killed 50 million people worldwide. Frozen cadaver tissue wad shipped to the Armed Forces Institute of Pathology in Rockville, Maryland. The virus’s genetic RNA material was identified and the 1918 Spanish flu was successfully brought back to life. Scientists researching pandemic flu strains have, since the recreation of the 1918 flu, been playing fast and loose with flu samples.
There is ample evidence to suggest this virus was combined with others. It escaped the lab, either deliberately or accidentally and has created a situation that allegedly warrants global vaccination. The genetic material has been re-engineered to synthetically create what is now known as the A/H1N1 virus, or as the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) calls it, the “novel flu.”
The A/H1N1 influenza contains genetic material from two strains of swine flu, two strains of human flu, and a single strain of avian flu. Its genetic code is now in public databases, where other researchers can download it to conduct experiments. Scientists from the University of Wisconsin and the National Microbiology Laboratory in Canada have already collaborated to reconstruct the virus from the publicly available sequence. How easy would it be for a bioterrorist to exploit the same information for malevolent ends?
H digging up Spanish flu victims; engineering bird and swine flu.>
Though they can be contaminated with animal viruses or mercury used as a preservative, in 2009, government officials say vaccine makers and federal officials will be immune from lawsuits that result from any new swine flu vaccine, under a document signed by Secretary of Health and Human Services Kathleen Sebelius.
Dirty Secrets
Chemtrail protestors claim this ultimate poisonous aerosol is a deliberate blanket attack on the populace. Immunosuppresant barium salts, mycoplasma and pollutants are named culprits. It wouldn’t be the first time that mass distribution was inflicted on the unwitting public at large.
The BW problem is both domestic and transnational. Despite broad-sweeping 1972 treaties, we have found new means to deliberately weaponize natural and artificially engineered viruses and bacteria. Many claim AIDS and SARS were genetically-engineered [ ]. Other abuses range from mismanagement, to dirty vaccines, to secret use of uninformed civilians as guinea pigs, to genetic targeting and more. In most cases, government or military “spyentists” claim the public has no “need to know.” It is just ‘psiops,’ as usual, full-spectrum psychophysical control in action.
Even more horrifically, state-sponsored programs can escape or be hijacked as bioterrorism threats. Despite treaty bans, a relentless search for the “superbug” continues. In 1989, Vladimir Pasechnik defected to Britain with tales of a genetically-manipulated “superplague” and missile delivery systems. When the Soviet system broke down, scientists put their expertise for sale in the black market. Massive biodefense spending has not made us immune.
Weapons of Mass Infection
Classified secrets are tightly held until something escapes high-containment labs. In the mid-70s lyme disease apparently escaped from Plum Island, a Department of Agriculture facility near New York City that doubles as an Army BW research facility. It is a truism that “the poison is in the cure.” When the defense vaccines pose their own dangers, the system itself is sick, presenting a double bind.
Who knows what demons lurk in clandestine freezers and what might yet be created, despite the Biological Weapons Convention? Even cults have used poisonous salmonella, ricin, and lethal sarin gas in their deadly plots. [ ] There are accusations that emerging diseases, such as Swine and Bird flu are genetically-engineered and that West Nile Virus was weaponized.
The mind reels over potential technological revolutions in nano- and genetic agents for evil or good. In May 2009, a nanosuit infused with Reactive Surface Treatment (RST) that repels and kills anthrax spores was announced. Designed to protect troops from BW agents, other applications of self-cleaning fabric include antibacterial sportswear.
Military fabrics can also be oil-resistant, self-extinguishing, or chemical agent-reactive. www.federallabs.org/pdf/Apri...sLink.pdf Biotech meets nanotech in smart-systems biowarfare detection devices -- photonic and nanotronic biosensor arrays that can immediately detect pathogens and insure public safety.
Leading biotech and biowarfare expert, George Poste is also a member of the Council on Foreign Relations. www.physorg.com/news6242.html In 2005, the CFR hosted a conference on the global threat of pandemic influenza, a Who’s Who of infectious diseases and global health, including a session on what the world would look like after a pandemic. docs.google.com/gview
Hoyle and Wickramasinghe at the University of Wales at Cardiff suggest that flu epidemics and perhaps other illness can rain down on us from space. They present data correlating high sunspot activity with flu pandemics (large-scale epidemics), driven by a roughly 11-year cycle of solar activity. [ ] Who knows what else space might have in store for humanity but can it be any worse than the heinous measures we inflict on ourselves? Widescale experimentation with mycoplasmas and other agents may already have made us all ticking timebombs. [ ]
“Wet Operations”
Furthermore, being a microbiologist can be hazardous to your health. Between Nov 12, 2001 and Mar 25, 2002, 13 renowned microbiologists mysteriously died in less than five months. The list of those who have died under mysterious circumstances keeps growing from LSD-patsy Frank Olson (d. 1953) to the “suicide” of accused anthrax murderer, the August 2008 “suicide” of Bruce E. Ivins, (Amerithrax pathogen) and the “suicide” of British whistleblower Dr. David Kelley in July 2003.
A transnational deadly pattern emerges. By 2005, 40 world-class micro-biologists expired in less than 4 years, all under suspicious circumstances. All worked for a government, or government contractors, on projects related to bio-terrorism, flu pandemics, or anthrax. Then it was discovered that our government was involved in strange experiments that involve exhuming bodies of people that were killed by the 1918 Spanish flu, and genetically engineered flu viruses.
Kelly was head of biological defense at the British secretive military research establishment of Porton Down, Wiltshire, and the brain behind much of the West's germ warfare programs. According to Burghardt (2009), Kelly may have been a target of Dick Cheney's “Executive Assassination Ring.” It’s hard to say what was more damning, his accusations that Saddam Hussein had no WMDs or his direct knowledge of genetically-targeted bioweapons and nefarious experiments.
Kelly was linked to the Britain's intelligence services MI5 and MI6, GCHQ, the Ministry of Defense (MoD), the Foreign Office and foreign spy agencies - including Israel's notorious Mossad (since 1995). A documentary, “Anthrax Wars,” is set for release in 2009. (Reid)
Kelly helped orchestrate the defection of Vladimir Pasechnik in 1989 so he had knowledge of horrifying Soviet research, as well. As chief director of the Institute for Ultra-Pure Biological preparations in St Petersburg, Pasechnik had developed killer germs. 'I want the West to know of this. There must be a way to stop this madness,' he told Dr Kelly in a safe house. (Reid)
Microbiologist Dr. Vladimir Pasechnik headed the Soviet bioweapons program at the Biopreparat facility. He was found dead in Wiltshire, England, near his home. In good health, he died suddenly in 2001 from a stroke some believe was induced by a nerve agent that mimics a stroke and leaves no traces. This began a string of mysterious deaths and obvious murders of world-class microbiologists, including Dr. Kelly. www.stevequayle.com/News.ale...ists.html

On the Warpath
Biolgocial research conducted on Indian reservations is not subject to scrutiny by the federal government because they are sovereign nations. In the 70s, Wackenhut Corporation attempted to sell "biological warfare viruses" and vaccine kits to the U.S. government to be used against “small countries bordering Albania or large countries bordering the Soviet Union.” [ ]
William C. Patrick, III developed the process by which anthrax spores could be concentrated at the level of one trillion spores per gram. Patrick worked with Kanatjan Alibekov, known as "Ken Alibek" since he defected to the US in 1992. Remember, Alibek served as manager for a CIA biological warfare program in 1998. In Russia, Alibek was the No. 2 expert in the FSU's biowarfare program, under Vladimir Pasechnik.
Ken Alibek became President of Hadron Advanced Biosystems, a subsidiary of Alexandria, Virginia-based Hadron, Inc., specializing in “the development of technical solutions for the intelligence community.” It received millions in funding for medical biodefense research in the field of non-specific immunity from the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, the US Army Medical Research and Materiel Command, and the NIH.
Whistleblower Dr. David Kelly’s highly-questionable ‘suicide’ happened while exposing WMD fraud as well as a potentially bigger scandal -- his own secret dealings in germ warfare with the apartheid regime in South Africa. He claimed there is a covert anthrax war, a global black market in anthrax involved in mystery “suicides” of five government germ warfare scientists from around the world. Kelly described “many dark actors playing games” of bioterrorism.
This Germ’s for You
The trigger has already been pulled on the smoking gun of biowarfare and we were all in the crosshairs. In the 1950s-70s, pathogenic mycoplasma were covertly released in top-secret “mock” attacks in the US and Canada. Dr Maurice Hilleman, chief virologist for the pharmaceutical company Merck Sharp & Dohme, stated that this disease agent is now carried by everybody in North America and possibly most people throughout the world. (Scott, 2001) Is this what they mean by “better living through chemistry?”
Testing open air dispersal on the domestic front contaminated virtually everyone and set time bombs ticking in many. The neurodegenerative and systemic-degenerative diseases are contagious but only manifest as active diseases if the recipient is genetically pre-disposed, has a compromised immune system, or a triggering trauma.
A Washington DC Microbiologist links Gulf War Syndrome (GWS) to the anthrax story, which led to the suspicious death of “mad scientist,” hypno-patsy Dr. Bruce Ivins. Mycoplasma contaminated anthrax vaccines were used in the Gulf Wars, giving rise to GWS. Mycoplasmas are normally benign but have been bioengineered into “new” diseases that are reaching epidemic proportions.
Similar to bacteria, mycoplasma are a group of small microorganisms without cell walls, between cells and viruses. They can invade and burrow very deep into the cell causing chromic infections. Normal mycoplasma infections produce relatively benign diseases limited to particular tissue sites or organs, but GWS strains are very pathogenic, colonize a variety of organs and tissues, and are very difficult to treat.
Mass Exposure
According to Dr. Shyh-Ching Lo, senior researcher at The Armed Forces Institute of Pathology and one of America’s top mycoplasma researchers, infectious mycoplasmas are implicated in AIDS, cancer, chronic fatigue syndrome, GWS, Crohn’s colitis, Type I diabetes, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s disease, Wegener’s disease and collagen-vascular diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and Alzheimer’s. (Scott) Lyme Disease and West Nile Virus were also weaponized when the military explored mosquitoes as a delivery vector. Ironically, our biodefense program has created the very threat to US citizens it was meant to thwart.
Anthrax vaccine production continues. In February 1998, State Health Director James Haveman said the (Lansing-based) state- owned Michigan Biologic Products Institute would continue making the vaccine being given to U.S. active and reserve military personnel under a recent Pentagon directive. The mycoplasma story is associated with Michigan State in Lansing, Michigan. Tavistock is associated with Michigan University in Ann Arbor.
There are 400 bioweapon labs across the U.S. 113 of them refuse to publicly disclose their research. When it comes to Germ Warfare, we have met the enemy and unfortunately, it is us. Medical warfare also includes non-military methods exploiting existing civilian infrastructure to control and/or reduce target populations. As the adage goes, “It is never the same after a war.”
Bio-Terror has Already Affected Us All
"Scientists at The Institute for Molecular Medicine have found that slightly under one-half of the very sick Gulf War Illness patients in a pilot study with the signs and symptoms of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome or Fibromyalgia have chronic invasive infections involving certain uncommon mycoplasmas, such as Mycoplasma fermentans (incognitus strain)." --Dr. Garth Nicolson
A Washington-based microbiologist, who wishes to remain cautiously anonymous for obvious reasons, claims there are many unresolved issues surrounding anthrax and anthrax vaccines. He links covert military experiments to creation of toxic mycoplasmas and Gulf War Syndrome spread through contaminated anthrax vaccine. But who would knowingly do such a thing and why? They’ve done it before and they’ll do it again.
Could the same forces be behind the August 2008 “apparent suicide” of hypno-patsy, Army research scientist Dr. Bruce E. Ivins? The Fort Detrick microbiologist worked on a biodefense vaccine for anthrax but wound up accused as the “mad scientist” behind the Anthrax Mailings of 2001 that proved fatal for five victims. Now dead, his innocence until proven guilty is forever moot. Is he another “suicide solution”?
Thanatopolitics: Social Power, Accelerated Social Change / Culled Population
We can follow the backtrail to governmentally sponsored anthrax to Gulf War Syndrome by following the “usual suspects.” When it comes to social or biological engineering, especially eugenics, the prime suspect is the perennial chimera of the globalist agenda, Tavistock Institute in Britain and one of its primary U.S. outposts, Michigan University, Ann Arbor.
Touchless Torture
Tavistock thinktank was created for healing shell shock but soon turned into the pioneering mass brainwashing institute with a globalist agenda. The precursor to the infamous CIA MK-ULTRA mind control program, Tavistock’s agenda is used to topple governments and engineer cultures. Tavistock’s spycologists are the founding fathers of mind control.
Tavistock’s goal is to control entire populations with the use of drugs, electronics and sophisticated mind control techniques, including group dynamics and lockdown propaganda. Research into the use of microwave weapons and their use for mind control began there in the 1950s. Tavistock was behind the creation and direction of the Office of Naval Intelligence (ONI).
The Cryptocracy, through economics and mass mind control is involved in the transformation or "alchemical processing" of mass consciousness by psychological mind manipulation. With the help of these foundations and secret societies, experiments in world shaping continue multimedia and military campaigns. The goal is to seed and control megatrends so the masses live as controlled puppets – wage slaves -- of the ruling elite from cradle to grave.
Their “endgame,” Thanatopolitics (autogenocide), includes radical population reduction employing a variety of pathogens and other means. Thus, Tavistock wrote the blueprint for germ biowarfare (BW) as well as drug and chemical assaults (CBW). A thinktank for the global shadow government, Tavistock plays a pivotal role in shaping political, social, educational, and economic 'opinions', especially in the United States. It manufactures trends, nations and wars.

Illumin-Naughty

In Intelligence they eat their own. This is a tale of a broken PROMIS linked to BW and Iran/Contra. This germy story is linked to “The Octopus” (intelligence and black ops for profit) conspiracy and the PROMIS software scandal of the 1980s as described by eccentric scientific genius Michael James Roconosciuto, (pronounced Riconoshooto), weapons systems designer and computer software expert.
He’s been accused of being a publicity-seeking pathological liar and a disinformation agent, but the intervening years have proved him right more often than not. He has one foot in the drug underground and the other in hi tech intelligence. Still, even after he went to prison, he continued making uncanny predictions.
MJR was involved in a variety of sensitive intelligence projects besides PROMIS, from selling shoulder-fired missiles to Osama bin Laden during “Charlie Wilson’s War,” to hi-tech top-down computer programming operations, microwave transmissions, digital cash dispersal, cryptoanalytic attack, to germ warfare, and alleged drug dealing. He even predicted 9/11 by hijacking but was ignored. It wouldn’t be far off to say he operated like a gangster. That is to say, this wise-guy knows the score when it comes to both state-sponsored and organized transnational crime. If he wasn’t a Lord of War, he certainly knew some.
PROMIS was a people-tracking software system sold to intelligence organizations and government drug agencies worldwide. The global dispersion of PROMIS to 88 countries was part of a U.S. plot to spy on other spy agencies. Riconosciuto is one of the architects of the PROMIS backdoor. The original backdoor was a signal using a specialized chip that broadcast the contents of the existing database to monitoring vans or collection satellites using digital spread spectrum data compression whenever the software was run.
PROMIS was eventually sold to the Russians by infamous traitor Robert Hanssen, who worked for the FBI. The Russians allegedly passed it on to bin Laden, allowing him to monitor U.S. efforts to track him down and to hide himself and his money, federal law enforcement officials said, according to the Washington Post. Hanssen helped allies like Germany and England install and use of their versions of the PROMIS program.www.boingboing.net/2001/10/...it-w.html
This author (Miller) interviewed MJR shortly before he went to prison. He told me the tangled story of the many tentacles of the metacontrol system, “The Octopus.” His story got weirder than The Matrix as he outlined his story in a futile gesture to protect himself from what he perceived correctly as immanent danger. His well-placed “partners” had turned on him.
So this computer Einstein for CIA had arrived in Southern Oregon “on the lamb” in a Winnebago with a gun turret and a phalanx of body guards. Seeing through the ruthlessness of his colleagues, “he decided to testify about massive corruption in the U.S. Justice Department and the intelligence agency. He agreed to provide his insider knowledge to the U.S. House Judiciary Committee investigating the Inslaw affair. www.toddjumper.com/eaglenet...wo57.html
Iran-Contra
Roconosciuto subsequently told his story in print but the details and analysis remain the same. This is the dangerous story that got investigative journalist Danny Casolaro killed in 1991 (another “apparent suicide”), best summarized in The Final Circle, by Carol Marshall (1996), who used MJR’s secret files to connect the dots. This is the story that turned MJR’s handlers against him and “poisoned the well,” sending him to prison where he was purposefully denied adequate medical care.
Casolaro tried to link Inslaw/PROMIS to the October Surprise scandal, the Iran-Contra affair and the collapse of BCCI (Bank of Credit and Commerce International). It’s no surprise Casolaro dubbed former child prodigy “Magic Mike,” now CIA rogue, “Danger Man.”
Shockingly, Riconosciuto claimed that he and Earl Brian had traveled to Iran in 1980 and paid $40 million to Iranian officials to persuade them NOT to release the hostages before the first presidential election won in 1980 by Ronald Reagan with Bush 41 as his V.P. He also claimed to be connected to satanic cults, small arms trafficking, the covert use of Indian reservations nationwide, bio-mass burning plants, "Trojan horses" installed in computers, the Nixon/Reagan/Bush mafia, money laundering through the national HUD agency, the CIA/mafia bust out of savings and loans, sexual slaves used to compromise power mongers, Vietnam drug money laundered to CIA banks, fuel explosives, [and] chemical and biological warfare weapons.
Journalist Casolaro came to Riconosciuto because MJR claimed that when he worked on the Wackenhut-Cabazon project, he was given a copy of the Inslaw software by Dr. Earl Brian for modification. Riconosciuto also swore that Peter Videnieks, a Justice Department official associated with the Inslaw contract, had visited the Wackenhut-Cabazon project with Earl Brian. Other sources acknowledge that Riconosciuto and Brian were indeed involved in a joint venture between the Cabazon Indians and the Wackenhut Corporation.
Earl Brian ran Hadron, a front company founded in the 80s for questionable activity including germ warfare. Nearly every hospital in the world buys their products. Hadron, with Dr. Earl Brian as director, also provided engineering and computer consulting services. Brian was convicted in the 1980s on fraud charges.
Both Hadron and Dr. Brian were linked with the theft of enhanced PROMIS software from its owner, the Inslaw Corporation. PROMIS was a highly sophisticated computer program capable of integrating a wide variety of databases, now reportedly mated with artificial intelligence. PROMIS was modified for intelligence with a back door that allows for surreptitious retrieval of stored data from adversaries.
Bio Rad made the most hazardous medical, biological and nuclear chemicals in the world. BioRad’s Earl Brian started InfoTech, then Hadron to protect the parent company from lawsuits. MJR claims they had the capacity to bioengineer DNA based, genetically targeted pathogens – ethnic bioweapons. In fact, he claimed to engineer them himself with gene-splicing.
Riconosciuto would make additional claims about Bio-Rad corporation, a medical supplier which had gradually taken over Hercules, California. They were also, Riconosciuto would say, covertly engaged in bio-warfare research—producing some of the deadliest toxins known to man. The focus of Bio-Rad's research was said to be bio-active elements that could be tailored to attack those with certain types of DNA. Weapons could thus be produced that were specifically designed to wipe out specific races or genetic classes of human beings. (Alternatively, particular DNA types could be immunized against a deadly biological agent; the agent could then be released, and everyone else would die.) (Grabbe)
Sound inplausible? Benjamin Fulford made the claim in 2007 that SARS is just such a genetically-selective bioweapon, designed to racially target Asians, specifically Chinese. Likewise, biologist Mae-Wan Ho finds a natural source for SARS implausible. She details the fingerprints of genetic engineering in its biological code which has very unusual features. The spike protein feature alone is enough to trigger serious autoimmune responses, and you can't vaccinate people against their own genes. http://www.i-sis.org.uk/SVGE.php
An Israeli doctor claims that, "In my 'heart of hearts' I believe that SARS is genetically engineered to target Chinese (Oriental) genetic materials. You may already know that Israel has been working on such a thing, specific to Arab genetic material. Knowing the military-industrial-medical cartel like I do, I would not be surprised if this isn't a 'test market' for something more sinister regarding other populations. What leads me to suspect that genetics are involved is that China is now trying to impose the death penalty on anyone who has contracted SARS. This lets me know that it is much more sinister than an ugly flu strain."
Another doctor, Dr. Robert Lee concludes, "I believe it is likely that SARS coronavirus will disproportionately infect those of Asian, African, and Hispanic extraction and less likely those of Northern European extraction." Meanwhile, the Chinese are prepared to terminate those who break quarantine.
AIDS, considered genetically-engineered by many, created a holocaust among gays. It became a genocidal factor throughout Africa. The agenda again is one of depopulation, the old rubric of culling the surplus population.
It is possible that when MJR was judged "mentally unstable" and fantasy-prone in the 1970s that the psychologists simply lacked the intelligence knowledge base to determine his veracity. He had already peeked behind the curtains. When hi tech emerges from the shadows, it often appears magical for a time. What shrink 20 years ago would have bought into cloaks of invisibility, but now we have stealth.
Airing Dirty Laundry
Hadron tried unsuccessfully to buy Inslaw and its PROMIS (Prosecutor's Management Information System) software in 1983. In 1982 the firm signed a three year contract for $10 million with the U.S. Department of Justice for a case-management computer program that enabled the U.S. attorneys to keep track of information on cases, witnesses and defendants, and to manage their caseloads more effectively. It could be used not only for cracking business, national or international computer systems, but also be modified to track money laundering, even CIA money laundering.
With Riconoscuito's credentials acclaimed by Congress and the Grand Jury, he further stated that he facilitated the laundering of CIA funds via his expertise in manipulating electronic data transmission equipment. This included the transfer of funds which were involved in the October Surprise payment to the Ayatollah Khomeini's regime in Iran. He said he was also responsible for the manner in which [the CIA] caused the interdiction of funds from the sale of Red Chinese gold and the manner in which large sums of CIA funds were secreted and knowledge of where those funds are located. www.toddjumper.com/eaglenet...wo57.html
By 1985, Inslaw was forced into bankruptcy in a DoJ investigation. When Inslaw refused to sell to Hadron, DOJ tried to bankrupt and liquidate Inslaw forcing the rock bottom sale of its assets, including PROMIS, perhaps to Hadron. The software was a reward for Earl Brian's role in arranging the so-called 'October Surprise' gambit. After Earl Brian sold PROMIS around the world, he returned his interests to genetic research, biological technology.
Wackenhut, a “private FBI” with black budget connections, is also linked to the Inslaw scandal. MJR said, “The purpose of the PROMIS software modification that I made in 1983 and 1984 was to support a plan for the implementation of PROMIS in law enforcement and intelligence agencies worldwide. Earl W. Brian was spearheading the plan for this worldwide use of the PROMIS computer software.”
Michael Riconosciuto was director of research for the Wackenhut/Cabazon joint venture in the early '80s. In a March 1991 affidavit for the Inslaw case, Riconosciuto claimed that "in connection with [Riconosciuto's] work for Wackenhut," he modified the stolen Promis software for foreign sales. "Earl W. Brian made [the software program] available to me through Wackenhut after acquiring it from Peter Videnieks, who was then a Department of Justice contracting official with responsibility for the Promis software." Videnieks, a former Customs Service official under Commissioner Chasen, served in the Justice Department from 1981 through 1990.
Not Wacko, Just a Wacken-Spy
In his affidavit, Riconosciuto said Videnieks had threatened to retaliate against Riconosciuto if he cooperated with a House Judiciary Committee probe of the Inslaw case. Seven days after filing the affidavit (which was not, technically, part of the committee investigation), Riconosciuto was arrested on drug-selling charges. www.matarese.com/matarese-...index.html
One week after giving an affidavit to Inslaw regarding the PROMIS software in 1991, Riconosciuto was arrested on trumped-up drug charges. The Assistant U.S. Attorney prosecuting the case attempted to cover up Riconosciuto's intelligence background by claiming to the jury he was "delusional." A TV station came and pointed a camera out at the desert at Cabazon and said, "Riconosciuto says he modified the PROMIS software here." Of course Riconosciuto didn't modify the software out between the cacti and yucca. Sand isn't good for computers. He did the modifications in offices in nearby Indio, California. The AUSA told reporters Riconosciuto had been diagnosed with a mental condition, the implication being "he's making all this stuff up". Yes, there had been a mental evaluation of Riconosciuto. I have a copy of the report. The diagnosis? Here it is: NO MENTAL DISORDER. The Department of Justice consistently and maliciously lied to the jury, just as had been threatened by Justice Department official Peter Viednicks if Riconosciuto cooperated with the congressional investigation of PROMIS. (Grabbe)
On the Warpath
This scandal was closely tied to shady dealings by Wackenhut (second largest private security firm in the US) to develop biological warfare viruses on the Cabazon Indian reservation in Indio, California. According to Spy Magazine, by 1966, “Wackenhut could confidently state that it had secret files on 4 million Americans.”
And, “Wackenhut has been involved with the CIA, ex-analyst says, on a quid pro quo basis.” They subcontracted black ops projects. “Wackenhut has been used by the CIA and other intelligence agencies for years…When they {the CIA} need cover, Wackenhut is there to provide it for them.” CIA director William Casey had once been Wackenhut’s lawyer. Is it surprising then that CIA used Wackenhut to conduct operations it was forbidden to undertake and wants to hide from Congress?
Wackenhut Corporation services included guards and electronic security for banks, office buildings, apartments, industrial complexes, even underground bases. In order to develop vaccines, which sounds innocuous enough, the virus must first be created. Biological warfare viruses have to be highly sophisticated to be used in military applications.
In 1981, Berckmans, the CIA agent turned Wackenhut vice president, joined with other senior Wackenhut executives to form the company's Special Projects Division. It was this division that linked up with ex-CIA man John Philip Nichols, who had taken over the Cabazon Indian reservation in California, as we described in a previous article {"Badlands;" April 1992}, in pursuit of a scheme to manufacture explosives, poison gas and biological weapons—and then, by virtue of the tribe's status as a sovereign nation, to export the weapons to the Contras. (Spy Magazine)
The darker side of Wackenhut's ambitious enterprise, is its direct involvement in illegal and black projects. In the early 1980s, Dr. John Nichols, the Cabazon tribal administrator, obtained a Department of Defense secret facility clearance for his reservation to conduct various research projects, to develop weapons and biological weapons in conjunction with Wachenhut.
The reservation was a favorite visiting spot for Saudi sheiks, mob leaders, politicians, military officers, and foreign intelligence people. Two important visitors were Dr. Earl Brian, a businessman with long CIA ties and Peter Videnieks, a Customs lawyer on loan to Justice who Michael said managed the Department a software system. Brian was said to have had many transactions through BCCI and banks in Switzerland and the Cayman Islands. According to both Mike and Bob Nichols, Videnieks was involved with them and Dr. Earl Brian in Hadron Corporation, which tried to buy Inslaw, producer of PROMIS software. Hadron also manufactured lasers. Nicaraguan Contra leaders visited it because weapons were being manufactured there for their use. (Michael Riconosciuto: The Math/Science Wizard Who Said too much, Part 4, by Sherman De Brosse)
Any type of biological research on an Indian reservation is immune to scrutiny by the federal government since Indian reservations are sovereign nations. Wackenhut Corporation attempted to sell "biological warfare viruses" and vaccine kits to the U.S. government to be used against “small countries bordering Albania or large countries bordering the Soviet Union.”
William C. Patrick, III developed the process by which anthrax spores could be concentrated at the level of one trillion spores per gram. Patrick has worked with Kanatjan Alibekov, known as "Ken Alibek" since he defected to the US in 1992. Remember, Alibek served as manager for a CIA biological warfare program in 1998. In Russia, Alibek was the No. 2 expert in the FSU's biowarfare program, under Vladimir Pasechnik, who later died mysteriously.

Wackenhut, a “private FBI” with black budget connections, is also linked to the Inslaw scandal. MJR said, “The purpose of the PROMIS software modification that I made in 1983 and 1984 was to support a plan for the implementation of PROMIS in law enforcement and intelligence agencies worldwide. Earl W. Brian was spearheading the plan for this worldwide use of the PROMIS computer software.”
Michael Riconosciuto was director of research for the Wackenhut/Cabazon joint venture in the early '80s. In a March 1991 affidavit for the Inslaw case, Riconosciuto claimed that "in connection with [Riconosciuto's] work for Wackenhut," he modified the stolen Promis software for foreign sales. "Earl W. Brian made [the software program] available to me through Wackenhut after acquiring it from Peter Videnieks, who was then a Department of Justice contracting official with responsibility for the Promis software." Videnieks, a former Customs Service official under Commissioner Chasen, served in the Justice Department from 1981 through 1990.
Not Wacko, Just a Wacken-Spy
In his affidavit, Riconosciuto said Videnieks had threatened to retaliate against Riconosciuto if he cooperated with a House Judiciary Committee probe of the Inslaw case. Seven days after filing the affidavit (which was not, technically, part of the committee investigation), Riconosciuto was arrested on drug-selling charges. www.matarese.com/matarese-...index.html
One week after giving an affidavit to Inslaw regarding the PROMIS software in 1991, Riconosciuto was arrested on trumped-up drug charges. The Assistant U.S. Attorney prosecuting the case attempted to cover up Riconosciuto's intelligence background by claiming to the jury he was "delusional." A TV station came and pointed a camera out at the desert at Cabazon and said, "Riconosciuto says he modified the PROMIS software here." Of course Riconosciuto didn't modify the software out between the cacti and yucca. Sand isn't good for computers. He did the modifications in offices in nearby Indio, California. The AUSA told reporters Riconosciuto had been diagnosed with a mental condition, the implication being "he's making all this stuff up". Yes, there had been a mental evaluation of Riconosciuto. I have a copy of the report. The diagnosis? Here it is: NO MENTAL DISORDER. The Department of Justice consistently and maliciously lied to the jury, just as had been threatened by Justice Department official Peter Viednicks if Riconosciuto cooperated with the congressional investigation of PROMIS. (Grabbe)
On the Warpath
This scandal was closely tied to shady dealings by Wackenhut (second largest private security firm in the US) to develop biological warfare viruses on the Cabazon Indian reservation in Indio, California. According to Spy Magazine, by 1966, “Wackenhut could confidently state that it had secret files on 4 million Americans.”
And, “Wackenhut has been involved with the CIA, ex-analyst says, on a quid pro quo basis.” They subcontracted black ops projects. “Wackenhut has been used by the CIA and other intelligence agencies for years…When they {the CIA} need cover, Wackenhut is there to provide it for them.” CIA director William Casey had once been Wackenhut’s lawyer. Is it surprising then that CIA used Wackenhut to conduct operations it was forbidden to undertake and wants to hide from Congress?
Wackenhut Corporation services included guards and electronic security for banks, office buildings, apartments, industrial complexes, even underground bases. In order to develop vaccines, which sounds innocuous enough, the virus must first be created. Biological warfare viruses have to be highly sophisticated to be used in military applications.
In 1981, Berckmans, the CIA agent turned Wackenhut vice president, joined with other senior Wackenhut executives to form the company's Special Projects Division. It was this division that linked up with ex-CIA man John Philip Nichols, who had taken over the Cabazon Indian reservation in California, as we described in a previous article {"Badlands;" April 1992}, in pursuit of a scheme to manufacture explosives, poison gas and biological weapons—and then, by virtue of the tribe's status as a sovereign nation, to export the weapons to the Contras. (Spy Magazine)
The darker side of Wackenhut's ambitious enterprise, is its direct involvement in illegal and black projects. In the early 1980s, Dr. John Nichols, the Cabazon tribal administrator, obtained a Department of Defense secret facility clearance for his reservation to conduct various research projects, to develop weapons and biological weapons in conjunction with Wachenhut.
The reservation was a favorite visiting spot for Saudi sheiks, mob leaders, politicians, military officers, and foreign intelligence people. Two important visitors were Dr. Earl Brian, a businessman with long CIA ties and Peter Videnieks, a Customs lawyer on loan to Justice who Michael said managed the Department a software system. Brian was said to have had many transactions through BCCI and banks in Switzerland and the Cayman Islands. According to both Mike and Bob Nichols, Videnieks was involved with them and Dr. Earl Brian in Hadron Corporation, which tried to buy Inslaw, producer of PROMIS software. Hadron also manufactured lasers. Nicaraguan Contra leaders visited it because weapons were being manufactured there for their use. (Michael Riconosciuto: The Math/Science Wizard Who Said too much, Part 4, by Sherman De Brosse)
Any type of biological research on an Indian reservation is immune to scrutiny by the federal government since Indian reservations are sovereign nations. Wackenhut Corporation attempted to sell "biological warfare viruses" and vaccine kits to the U.S. government to be used against “small countries bordering Albania or large countries bordering the Soviet Union.”
William C. Patrick, III developed the process by which anthrax spores could be concentrated at the level of one trillion spores per gram. Patrick has worked with Kanatjan Alibekov, known as "Ken Alibek" since he defected to the US in 1992. Remember, Alibek served as manager for a CIA biological warfare program in 1998. In Russia, Alibek was the No. 2 expert in the FSU's biowarfare program, under Vladimir Pasechnik, who later died mysteriously.
Ken Alibek became President of Hadron Advanced Biosystems, a subsidiary of Alexandria, Va.-based Hadron, Inc., specializing in “the development of technical solutions for the intelligence community.” It received millions in funding for medical biodefense research in the field of non-specific immunity from the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, the US Army Medical Research and Materiel Command, and the NIH.
Uber-chemist Sasha Shulgin

Shulgin’s Ecstasy
The Tavistock agenda also spawned the counterculture, Human Potential Movement, and Rave Culture. Psychedelic chemist, Alexander “Sasha” Shulgin worked out a whole series of mind-altering compounds, including Ecstasy, STP, synthetic THC and nearly 200 other hallucinogenic compounds. The godfather of X is a paradoxical character. This counterculture pioneer is also a member of the Bohemian Club, which has been called an Illuminati or globalist front. Strange bedfellows, indeed.
How is it this psychedelic chemist has crossed cultural lines from the ivory tower to Chemical Corps firms, to the roots of psychedelic culture, to rubbing elbows with the transnational meta-controllers of The Grove? Shulgin remains an ambiguous character with a career arc that cut an influential mercurial path through the cultural landscape. We might call him the “Einstein of psychoactive compounds,” most of which he tested on himself.
What cemented the Bohemian deal was an unexpected subpoena sent to Sasha on behalf of Claude Pepper’s “The House Committee On Crime In America.” This famous witch-hunt of the times was concerned with criminal cartels, illegal drug masterminds and those suspected of being their teachers. According to his autobiography, when Sasha entered the Court House the Witch-finder General scowled, “How can you call yourself a scientist” he demanded, “and do the type of work you do?”
Under oath Dr. Ecstasy was “raked over the coals.” Criminal associations were introduced into testimony, including Sasha’s alleged clandestine association with Owsley Stanley, the infamous LSD chemist who made “Orange Sunshine” LSD. Further, Sasha had once been approached to set up and run an illegal lab in Jamaica, being offered “six million dollars” according to his fictional PIHKAL. Even within the government, whether he was a “good guy” or “bad guy” depended on relative point of view.
Shulgin’s research and discoveries permeate the entire social spectrum in recursive feedback loops between counterculture, the military/industrial complex, intelligence, and the global elite. The “love drug” Ecstasy, codenamed “Adam,” has been jokingly called a “weapon of mass elation.” His fictional autobiographies, PIKAL and TIKAL reveals a double-life as a witting and unwitting agent in the twilight zone of clandestine work.
How can someone create the ultimate “peace pill” like MDMA and mingle with warmongers, nuclear arms dealers, transnational criminals and media manipulators? How can MDMA’s Godfather, Dr. Shulgin, sit through the Illuminati-derived occult rituals of Bohemian Grove and then casually write about this in his books? Did he lose his own conscience in the “Cremation of Care” ceremonies? How can he create a drug that promotes truth and communication and sit in an ultra-manipulative secret society called a “private gentlemen’s club,” focused on themes of secrecy, monopolization of resources, war and death?
This chemical genius was quickly grabbed up by powerful interests. In his youth, he worked on pesticides for Dow Chemical, infamous for producing Napalm and other BW agents used in Vietnam. He quickly moved to investigating hallucinogenic drugs. There he developed one of the first synthetic THC compounds, active ingredients in marijuana. He learned how to concentrate the potency and toxicity of many compounds.
The dragon of biological warfare owes much to this old pesticide research. Toxins and poisons derived from plants and animals can be developed into (BW) biological warfare agents - proteins capable of acting on specific receptors in the human body. Developers rely on a variety of sources for toxins, including microbes, snakes, spiders, sea creatures and plants. Toxins can also be derived from algal toxin, for example, and are highly poisonous and difficult to halt with vaccines or other medical treatment.
Another toxin - Saxitoxin - from marine algae, affects nerve cells, eventually causing the victim to stop breathing. Weapons experts also consider the possibility of bioregulators - organic chemicals that regulate cell processes. Physiologically active catalysts will be weaponized for biological warfare in the future.
An intelligence community report points out that such chemicals could short-circuit and disrupt the bodily functions and kill the affected victim. – (Gertz, Air Force Magazine, Jan. 1988). Such biological warfare weapons have been called “bug-spray for humans.” Chemical and biological warfare has terrified the world and is banned today by most civilized nations
Psychonauts
This early pesticide and THC work led Dr. Shulgin to members of the Edgewood Arsenal in Maryland. In the 1960’s, the Edgewood Arsenal was a main chemical-biological weapons developer for the US military. Shulgin was offered a job working for what he “fictionally” described as the “San Carlos Aerospace Laboratory” under the auspices of NASA. The person who interviewed Sasha for the job told him what to expect. He explained astronauts might be exposed to long periods of sensory isolation and the potential mental challenges that ensue.
A research program was created, geared to developing chemicals that could be used to train those astronauts who might be subjected to long bouts of sensory deprivation. Shulgin was mandated to “teach them to roll with the altered states of consciousness that could very well be a consequence of that isolation” (PIHKAL, pp. 43)
No doubt NASA also had interests in anti-emetic (anti-vomiting) drugs for those new to zero-gravity. And anti-boredom. relaxing and hunger-stimulating agents might be useful on long space flights. Natural THC from marijuana is well known for easing dysphoria and many symptom while stimulating appetite. We can presume similar action for synthetic THC.
Edgewood Arsenal published an academic paper on manufacture of synthetic THC in May, 1967, two years after Shulgin left Edgewood and Dow. This Journal of Organic Chemistry paper is titled, “Synthesis of the Eight Stereo Isomers of Tetrahydrocannabinol Congener” by Herbert Aaron and Parker Ferguson.
So, was Shulgin designing top-secret chemistry for NASA? Or designing top-secret chemistry for: potential biological warfare? Dr. Shulgin supposes in his book PIHKAL, that the man he now worked for - a person he pseudonymously calls “Captain B. Lauder Pinkerton” - was an NSA (National Security Agency) agent: Pinkerton arrived with a whole other world of new biological research projects already established by his own agenda for Sasha to see and explore.
“Here were arcane projects such as black-membrane dynamics, studies of the influence of gravity on plant growth, the relationship between magnetic fields and the blood-brain barrier, and the effects of radiation on fertility.” - PIHKAL, pp. 45
Captain Pinkerton spoke to Dr. Shulgin about many things. For example, “Pinkerton might bring up the subject of mental telepathy and the possibility of influencing another persons thoughts at a distance”. Intelligence was very interested in the fringes of psi powers and truth drugs in those days. Alexander Shulgin naturally concluded that his work would end-up at the CIA or Department of Defense, probably weaponized.
Free Agent
Troubled, Sasha claims he quit this new job right before his official top-secret clearance was approved, since top-secret clearance “would effectively gag [him] for the rest of his life.” His future in open science could be compromised by covert black ops agendas. Science that might save lives or led to important discoveries for the common man could be compromised. Still he knew there were probably a lot of people in the government very interested in what he published.
“I have no doubt whatsoever that the CIA and probably the Defense Department take a close look at some or all of the compounds that I write up; they probably feel that I am doing a lot of their work for them, as a matter of fact. . .testing them for use in war - biological warfare and that sort of stuff?…Or possibly crowd control, or prisoner-of-war interrogation, or maybe helping to drive an unfriendly Head of State into some kind of befuddlement - who knows? Their objectives are not my objectives...” (PIHKAL, pp. 157)
Alexander Shulgin went on to operate his own licensed lab as a consultant, and teach as a college professor. He taught Public health classes at San Francisco General Hospital and lectured at the Pacific Graduate School of Psychology and San Francisco State University, among others. As the godfather of Ecstasy, he gave life to the Rave movement and other countercultural trends. He is highly respected among the psychedelic intelligentsia despite his background with clandestine forces.
Over the years, Shulgin contracted with the FBI (Federal Bureau of Investigation), the DEA (Drug Enforcement Administration), NIDA (National Institute of Drug Abuse) and many other government agencies. He retired as Professor Emeritus from the University of California. Besides Dow Chemical, Shulgin also contracted with Bristol Labs and the Lawrence Radiation Laboratory.
According to the memoir of retired Colonel James Ketchum, M.D., Chemical Warfare: Secrets Almost Forgotten (2006), military mind meddlers wanted a nonlethal incapacitating agent that would dissolve the will to resist, and funding for chemical weaponry and mind control was readily available in the early 60s. Other “incapacitating” experimental drugs of the era included LSD, PCP, STP, MDA, DMT, BZ and Ritalin. Various agencies tested these brainstorms on witting and unwitting victims, and then they escaped the handlers.
One morning, Ketchum arrived at his office in Edgewood and found "a large, black steel barrel, resembling an oil drum, parked in the corner of the room," he recounts in his book. Overcome by curiosity, he opened the barrel and examined its contents. There were a dozen tightly sealed glass canisters that looked like cookie jars; the labels on the canisters indicated that each contained about three pounds of "EA 1729," the Army's code number for LSD. By the end of the week, the 40 pounds of government acid -- enough to intoxicate several hundred million people -- vanished as mysteriously as it had appeared. Ketchum still doesn't know who put the LSD in his office or what became of it.
Great ILLusion
Lab space for such work has increased 10-fold since 2001. The Bush administration built a new 160,000 foot lockdown facility at Ft. Detrick. Critics say the laboratory's work will violate international law by producing and stockpiling the world's most lethal bacteria and viruses"- forbidden by the 1972 BWC and 1989 US Biological Weapons Anti-Terrorism Act.
Even after Nixon allegedly ended the nation's biowarfare programs, they never stopped. The CIA remained active through a loophole in the law. The Reagan administration reactivated what Nixon seemingly slowed down. Bush 42 would have been well-familiar with such dark ops from CIA. Linton staunchly advocated dual-use biological defense and weaponry. George W. reveled in unbridled power of all sorts.
Thousands of scientists are now working with bioweapons agents, many for the first time. More than 14,000 scientists have been approved to work with so-called select agents like anthrax that usually pose little threat to public health unless they are used as bioweapons.
Genetically engineered constructs are escaping into the environment, speeding up recombination and jumping species barriers. This is the major route to creating new diseases. With this routine release, we don't need terrorists to create new epidemics. Bioweapon and GM control must come together. By default or design it is still bioterrorism.
Quo Vadis?
Biowarfare’s goal is simply the transmission of disease and disorder. It is arguably as old as mankind. The first recorded example is the Hittites use of plague infected rams, 3300 years ago. "Hittite plague" raged through the Middle East in the 14th century B.C.
Contamination of water was another common tactic. The ancient Assyrians (whose civilization began around 2400 B.C. in modern Turkey, Iran, Syria and Iraq) poisoned enemy wells with ergot, an LSD-like fungus that grows on wheat, rye and other grains.
Historically, smallpox and anthrax have been used against adversaries. Anthrax infection was known to the Israelites in Egypt who used figs as a remedy for skin lesions. In the medieval period diseased corpses were catapulted into besieged fortresses. The Mongols did the same with bubonic plague victims.
Where are we going with today’s black ops germ warfare? Hope only offers only delusion for consolation. Our only protection is good food, water and healthy immune systems. The Germ warfare is GOD’s timebomb – Gold, Oil, & Drugs.
No good can come of it. Our only protection is good food, water and healthy immune systems. The pretzel twist is that those are prime targets in the war that never ends. You are in the bullseye.

He is highly respected among the psychedelic intelligentsia despite his background with clandestine forces.
Over the years, Shulgin contracted with the FBI (Federal Bureau of Investigation), the DEA (Drug Enforcement Administration), NIDA (National Institute of Drug Abuse) and many other government agencies. He retired as Professor Emeritus from the University of California. Besides Dow Chemical, Shulgin also contracted with Bristol Labs and the Lawrence Radiation Laboratory.
According to the memoir of retired Colonel James Ketchum, M.D., Chemical Warfare: Secrets Almost Forgotten (2006), military mind meddlers wanted a nonlethal incapacitating agent that would dissolve the will to resist, and funding for chemical weaponry and mind control was readily available in the early 60s. Other “incapacitating” experimental drugs of the era included LSD, PCP, STP, MDA, DMT, BZ and Ritalin. Various agencies tested these brainstorms on witting and unwitting victims, and then they escaped the handlers.
One morning, Ketchum arrived at his office in Edgewood and found "a large, black steel barrel, resembling an oil drum, parked in the corner of the room," he recounts in his book. Overcome by curiosity, he opened the barrel and examined its contents. There were a dozen tightly sealed glass canisters that looked like cookie jars; the labels on the canisters indicated that each contained about three pounds of "EA 1729," the Army's code number for LSD. By the end of the week, the 40 pounds of government acid -- enough to intoxicate several hundred million people -- vanished as mysteriously as it had appeared. Ketchum still doesn't know who put the LSD in his office or what became of it.
Great ILLusion
Lab space for such work has increased 10-fold since 2001. The Bush administration built a new 160,000 foot lockdown facility at Ft. Detrick. Critics say the laboratory's work will violate international law by producing and stockpiling the world's most lethal bacteria and viruses"- forbidden by the 1972 BWC and 1989 US Biological Weapons Anti-Terrorism Act.
Even after Nixon allegedly ended the nation's biowarfare programs, they never stopped. The CIA remained active through a loophole in the law. The Reagan administration reactivated what Nixon seemingly slowed down. Bush 42 would have been well-familiar with such dark ops from CIA. Linton staunchly advocated dual-use biological defense and weaponry. George W. reveled in unbridled power of all sorts.
Thousands of scientists are now working with bioweapons agents, many for the first time. More than 14,000 scientists have been approved to work with so-called select agents like anthrax that usually pose little threat to public health unless they are used as bioweapons.
Genetically engineered constructs are escaping into the environment, speeding up recombination and jumping species barriers. This is the major route to creating new diseases. With this routine release, we don't need terrorists to create new epidemics. Bioweapon and GM control must come together. By default or design it is still bioterrorism.
Quo Vadis?
Biowarfare’s goal is simply the transmission of disease and disorder. It is arguably as old as mankind. The first recorded example is the Hittites use of plague infected rams, 3300 years ago. "Hittite plague" raged through the Middle East in the 14th century B.C.
Contamination of water was another common tactic. The ancient Assyrians (whose civilization began around 2400 B.C. in modern Turkey, Iran, Syria and Iraq) poisoned enemy wells with ergot, an LSD-like fungus that grows on wheat, rye and other grains.
Historically, smallpox and anthrax have been used against adversaries. Anthrax infection was known to the Israelites in Egypt who used figs as a remedy for skin lesions. In the medieval period diseased corpses were catapulted into besieged fortresses. The Mongols did the same with bubonic plague victims.
Where are we going with today’s black ops germ warfare? Hope only offers only delusion for consolation. Our only protection is good food, water and healthy immune systems. The Germ warfare is GOD’s timebomb – Gold, Oil, & Drugs.
No good can come of it. Our only protection is good food, water and healthy immune systems. The pretzel twist is that those are prime targets in the war that never ends. You are in the bullseye.

They "weaponised" it and tested it on an unsuspecting public in North America. Dr Maurice Hilleman, chief virologist for the pharmaceutical company Merck Sharp & Dohme, stated that this disease agent is now carried by everybody in North America and possibly most people throughout the world.

This Germ’s for You
The trigger has already been pulled on the smoking gun of biowarfare and we were all in the crosshairs. In the 1950s-70s, pathogenic mycoplasma were covertly released in top-secret “mock” attacks. Dr Maurice Hilleman, chief virologist for the pharmaceutical company Merck Sharp & Dohme, stated that this disease agent is now carried by everybody in North America and possibly most people throughout the world. (Scott, 2001) Is this what they mean by “better living through chemistry?”
Testing open air dispersal on the domestic front contaminated virtually everyone and set time bombs ticking in many. The neurodegenerative and systemic-degenerative diseases are contagious but only manifest as active diseases if the recipient is genetically pre-disposed, has a compromised immune system, or a triggering trauma.
A Washington DC Microbiologist links Gulf War Syndrome (GWS) to the anthrax story, which led to the suspicious death of “mad scientist,” hypno-patsy Dr. Bruce Ivins. Mycoplasma contaminated anthrax vaccines were used in the Gulf Wars, giving rise to GWS. Mycoplasmas are normally benign but have been bioengineered into “new” diseases that are reaching epidemic proportions.
Similar to bacteria, mycoplasma are a group of small microorganisms without cell walls, between cells and viruses. They can invade and burrow very deep into the cell causing chromic infections. Normal mycoplasma infections produce relatively benign diseases limited to particular tissue sites or organs, but GWS strains are very pathogenic, colonize a variety of organs and tissues, and are very difficult to treat.
According to Dr Shyh-Ching Lo, senior researcher at The Armed Forces Institute of Pathology and one of America’s top mycoplasma researchers, infectious mycoplasmas are implicated in AIDS, cancer, chronic fatigue syndrome, GWS, Crohn’s colitis, Type I diabetes, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s disease, Wegener’s disease and collagen-vascular diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and Alzheimer’s. (Scott) Lyme Disease and West Nile Virus were also weaponized when the military explored mosquitos as a delivery vector. Ironically, our biodefense program has created the very threat it was meant to thwart.
“Anthrax vaccine production continues; Michigan Biologics Remains Open,” UPI 2/16/98 2:40 PM State Health Director James Haveman says the (Lansing-based) state- owned Michigan Biologic Products Institute will continue making the vaccine being given to U.S. active and reserve military personnel under a recent Pentagon directive. The mycoplasma story is associated with Michigan State in Lansing, Michigan. Tavistock is associated with Michigan University in Ann Arbor.
There are 400 bioweapon labs across the U.S. 113 of them refuse to publicly disclose their research. When it comes to Germ Warfare, we have met the enemy and unfortunately, it is us. Medical warfare also includes non-military methods exploiting existing civilian infrastructure to control and/or reduce target populations. As the adage goes, “It is never the same after a war.”
Bio-Terror has Already Affected Us All
A Washington-based microbiologist, who wishes to remain Deep Throat anonymous for health reasons, claims there are many unresolved issues surrounding anthrax and anthrax vaccines. He links experimental military use to covert creation of toxic mycoplasmas and Gulf War Syndrome spread through contaminated anthrax vaccine. But who would knowingly do such a thing and why? They’ve done it before and they’ll do it again.
Could it be the same forces behind the August 2008 “apparent suicide” of hypno-patsy, Army research scientist Dr. Bruce E. Ivins? The Fort Detrick microbiologist worked on a biodefense vaccine for anthrax but wound up accused as the “mad scientist” behind the Anthrax Mailings of 2001 that proved fatal for five victims. Now dead, his innocence until proven guilty is forever moot.
Going Postal
Ironically, Ivins had been used as an expert during the FBI investigation but he buckled under pressure from the federal government after he was committed to a facility for treatment of his depression. Who knows what went on there in the name of “treatment?” Was Ivins a “mad scientist” or another mind-bent Manchurian Candidate secretly programmed for self-destruction by psy-ops – a fall guy?
“Dr. Ivins, growing ever more distressed and evidently ever less balanced, committed suicide (with Tylenol) on the day his lawyer was meeting with the FBI about a possible plea bargain that could have left him in jail for life, but would have taken the death penalty off the table.” (Engelhardt)
Richard. Spertzel, head of the biological-weapons section of Unscom from 1994-99, was a member of the Iraq Survey Group. He told the Wall Street Journal, he is strongly suspicious of Ivins’ presumed guilt. He knows from lab protocols, Ivins simply couldn’t produce it alone and didn’t have the equipment. (Madsen) A lone scientist is as unlikely as a “lone gunman.”
Other watchdogs think Ivins’ accusation too convenient for the lame-duck Bush Administration since it officially closes the case to further investigation. It has been suggested the perpetrator is the government itself. As usual, the policy is one of denial. But, why else did the FBI drag its feet?
Amerithrax
“Congress originally passed the Patriot Act during an anthrax attack on the offices of the Senate Democratic Majority Leader and the Chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee. Although the anthrax used in the attack was traced to a strain maintained by the U.S. Army Medical Research Institute for Infectious Diseases (USAMRIID) at Ft. Detrick, Maryland, the perpetrators were never found.”
“…The original Fort Detrick anthrax development program… 'Officially’ ended in 1972 when President Nixon signed, along with the Soviet Union and United Kingdom, the Biological Weapons Convention. Nixon had actually ordered the Pentagon to stop producing biological weapons in 1969. It now seems likely that the U.S. military and intelligence community failed to follow Nixon's orders and, in fact, have consistently violated a lawful treaty signed by the United States.”
“The BBC reported that Battelle Memorial Institute (a favorite Pentagon and CIA contractor and for whom Alibek served as biological warfare program manager in 1998) conducted a secret biological warfare test in the Nevada desert using genetically-modified anthrax…right before the terrorist attacks. The BBC reported that Patrick's paper on sending anthrax through the mail was also part of the classified contractor work on the deadly bacterial agent. ” (Madsen, 2008)
Microbiology: Hazardous to Your Health
What is scarier – a foreign bioterrorist attack or our own rogue scientist who has lost control? How about a rogue government hijacked from its citizenry base and the Constitution? We’ve met the enemy and it’s us. Even if we are just guilty of complacency, that is no excuse for criminal activities carried on in the name of our military and state security.
Guilty or innocent himself, Ivins’ mysterious death refocuses public attention on the long notorious history of biowarfare (BW) and the engineering of chemical and biological lethal agents (CBW). Biological agents, though banned, are a seductive weapon of mass destruction because they are easily deployed in bombs and aerosols. There has been clandestine research, development and testing of some very scary pathogens. We were all the unwitting guinea pigs.
Systemic Mycoplasma Infections are found in patients with: Gulf War Syndrome, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Myalgic Encephalomyelitis, Fibromyalgia, Lyme Disease, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Systemic Lupus Erythematosus, Scleroderma, Sjogren's Syndrome, Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, Multiple Sclerosis, Cystic Fibrosis, Asthma, Respiratory Distress Syndrome, Pneumonia, Bronchitis, Inflammatory Bowel Disease, Sarcoidosis, Wegener's Disease, Kikuchi's Disease, Leukemia, Alzheimer's Disease, Autism, Infertility, Stevens-Johnson Syndrome, and Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome, Hypercoagulation, Heart Disease, Stroke and Cancer. www.thepowerhour.com/news/my...ting.htm
Many doctors don’t know about this mycoplasma disease agent because it was developed by the US military in biological warfare experimentation and it was not made public. This pathogen was patented by the United States military and Dr Shyh-Ching Lo. "Pathogenic Mycoplasma", US Patent No. 5,242,820, issued September 7, 1993. Dr Lo is listed as the Inventor" and the American Registry of Pathology, Washington, DC, is listed as the "Assignee".
These are diseases that have existed for thousands of years, but they have been weaponised—which means they’ve been made more contagious and more effective. And they are spreading. this disease agent causes many illnesses including AIDS, cancer, chronic fatigue syndrome, Crohn’s colitis, Type I diabetes, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s disease, Wegener’s disease and collagen-vascular diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and Alzheimer’s . (Scott, 2001)
What would account for an unlikely epidemic of self-destructive microbiologists and computer experts? Being a microbiologist has become a dangerous occupation as over 100 of these scientists and their IT counterparts have died mysteriously over the last few years. What better way to find out who knows too much than cracking their research databases? Could it be their clandestine research has lifted the toxic curtain that veils an agenda of mass human extermination – the ecologically mandated “Die Off” of 4 billion “useless eaters?” Illumin-Naughty Broken PROMIS: Tentacles of Cryptocracy
In Intelligence they eat their own. The sinister webwork is littered with stolen and broken promises. This germy story is linked to “The Octopus” (intelligence and black ops for profit) conspiracy and the PROMIS software scandal of the 1980s as described by eccentric scientific genius Michael James Roconosciuto, (pronounced Riconoshooto), weapons systems designer and computer software expert.
He’s been accused of being a publicity-seeking pathological liar and a disinformation agent, but the intervening years have proved him right more often than not. He has one foot in the drug underground and the other in hi tech intelligence. Still, even after he went to prison, he continued making uncanny predictions.
MJR was involved in a variety of sensitive intelligence projects besides PROMIS, from selling shoulder-fired missiles to Osama bin Laden during “Charlie Wilson’s War,” to hi-tech top-down computer programming operations, microwave transmissions, digital cash dispersal, cryptoanalytic attack, to germ warfare, and alleged drug dealing. It wouldn’t be far off to say he operated like a gangster. That is to say, this wise-guy knows the score when it comes to both state-sponsored and organized transnational crime
He even predicted 9/11 by hijacking but was ignored. According to Riconosciuto, if properly investigated, the events of 911 may not have occurred. On February 5, 2001, Riconosciuto wrote a certified letter to his attorney, Don Bailey, that he had contact with someone in an Islamic group called the "Base" (AI Qaeda), and that said group was currently in preparation for an attack in the United States, but would not divulge specific details unless the U.S. Government granted immunity from prosecution to his sources. In this letter, Riconosciuto also stated that he had an inside source who could furnish information concerning the handling of false IDs and passports for the group. (Ted Gundersson, tedgunderson.com/)
PROMIS was a people-tracking software system sold to intelligence organizations and government drug agencies worldwide. The global dispersion of PROMIS to 88 countries was part of a U.S. plot to spy on other spy agencies. Riconosciuto is one of the architects of the PROMIS backdoor. The original backdoor was a signal using a specialized chip that broadcast the contents of the existing database to monitoring vans or collection satellites using digital spread spectrum data compression whenever the software was run.
The SIGINT was embedded as ordinary computer “noise,” actually encrypted stream cipher. A stream cipher applies a time- varying transformation to individual digits or bits of data. "Time-varying" means the same sequence of plaintext data bits seen at two different points in time will be encrypted to a different sequence of ciphertext data bits. The most famous stream cipher is the Verdam cipher, or “one-time pad.” It requires independent, uniform distribution of the keys, which are used only once and then discarded.
PROMIS was eventually even sold for $2 million to the Russians by infamous traitor Robert Hanssen, who worked for FBI. The Russians passed it on to bin Laden, allowing him to monitor U.S. efforts to track him down, federal law enforcement officials said, according to the Washington Post.
October 26, 2001. Brit Hume. The software program is called Promis. Sources tell Fox that U.S. law enforcement and intelligence agencies have used and constantly modified Promis software to manage caseloads, track and store classified information, and keep it secure for decades.
But the concern is that bin Laden or Al Qaeda could get on-line and use it to monitor the worldwide criminal investigation and hide themselves, to monitor the worldwide financial investigation and hide their money, or monitor government operations of the governments that use the software.
As a senior agent in the FBI's counterterrorism bureau, sources say Hanssen was tasked with helping allies like Germany and England with the installation and use of their versions of the PROMIS program. Numerous countries now, however, are tightening their cyber security, including Germany, Great Britain and Canada has actually investigated potential tampering with its Promis programs. Israel has used it on and off for years, too. www.boingboing.net/2001/10/...it-w.html
In an interview with this author (Miller) shortly before he went to prison, MJR personally recounted the tangled story of the many tentacles of the metacontrol system, “The Octopus.” His story got weirder than The Matrix but he was perfectly lucid, easily recounting names, dates and particulars, seemingly eager to spread his story in a futile gesture to protect himself from what he perceived correctly as immanent danger. His well-placed “partners” had turned on him. This explained why he had arrived in Southern Oregon “on the lamb” in a Winnebago with a gun turret and a phalanx of body guards.
Michael Riconoscuito was a computer expert for the Central Intelligence Agency, he was their Einstein. There was nothing he couldn't do with a computer, for good or for bad. But he had many secrets and he began to see the ruthlessness of his colleagues. Michael Riconoscuito decided to testify about massive corruption in the U.S. Justice Department and the intelligence agency. He agreed to provide his insider knowledge to the U.S. House Judiciary Committee investigating the Inslaw affair. www.toddjumper.com/eaglenet...wo57.html
Iran-Contra
Roconosciuto subsequently told his story in print but the details and analysis remain the same. This is the dangerous story that got investigative journalist Danny Casolaro killed in 1991 (another “apparent suicide”), best summarized in The Final Circle, by Carol Marshall (1996), who used MJR’s secret files to connect the dots. This is the story that turned MJR’s handlers against him and “poisoned the well,” sending him to prison where he’s been denied adequate medical care.
Casolaro was trying to prove that the alleged theft of the Inslaw computer program, PROMIS, was related to the October Surprise scandal, the Iran-Contra affair and the collapse of BCCI (Bank of Credit and Commerce International). It’s no surprise Casolaro dubbed former child prodigy “Magic Mike,” now CIA rogue, “Danger Man.”
Shockingly, Riconosciuto claimed that he and Earl Brian had traveled to Iran in 1980 and paid $40 million to Iranian officials to persuade them NOT to release the hostages before the first presidential election won in 1980 by Ronald Reagan with Bush 41 as his V.P. He also claimed to be connected to satanic cults, small arms trafficking, the covert use of Indian reservations nationwide, bio-mass burning plants, "Trojan horses" installed in computers, the Nixon/Reagan/Bush mafia, money laundering through the national HUD agency, the CIA/mafia bust out of savings and loans, sexual slaves used to compromise power mongers, Vietnam drug money laundered to CIA banks, fuel explosives, [and] chemical and biological warfare weapons.
What brought journalist Casolaro to Riconosciuto was an affidavit where MJR claimed that when he worked on the Wackenhut-Cabazon project, he was given a copy of the Inslaw software by Dr. Earl Brian for modification. Riconosciuto also swore that Peter Videnieks, a Justice Department official associated with the Inslaw contract, had visited the Wackenhut-Cabazon project with Earl Brian. Other sources acknowledge that Riconosciuto and Brian were indeed involved in a joint venture between the Cabazon Indians and the Wackenhut Corporation.
Earl Brian ran Hadron, a front company founded in the 80s for questionable activity including germ warfare. Nearly every hospital in the world buys their products. Hadron, with Dr. Earl Brian as director, also provided engineering and computer consulting services. Brian was convicted in the 1980s on fraud charges.
Both Hadron and Dr. Brian were linked with the theft of enhanced PROMIS software from its owner, the Inslaw Corporation. PROMIS was a highly sophisticated computer program capable of integrating a wide variety of databases, now reportedly mated with artificial intelligence. PROMIS was modified for intelligence with a back door that allows for surreptitious retrieval of stored data from adversaries.
Bio Rad made the most hazardous medical, biological and nuclear chemicals in the world. BioRad’s Earl Brian started InfoTech, then Hadron to protect the parent company from lawsuits. MJR claims they had the capacity to bioengineer DNA based, genetically targeted pathogens – ethnic bioweapons. In fact, he claimed to engineer them himself with gene-splicing.
Riconosciuto would make additional claims about Bio-Rad corporation, a medical supplier which had gradually taken over Hercules, California. They were also, Riconosciuto would say, covertly engaged in bio-warfare research—producing some of the deadliest toxins known to man. The focus of Bio-Rad's research was said to be bio-active elements that could be tailored to attack those with certain types of DNA. Weapons could thus be produced that were specifically designed to wipe out specific races or genetic classes of human beings. (Alternatively, particular DNA types could be immunized against a deadly biological agent; the agent could then be released, and everyone else would die.) (Grabbe) Sound inplausible? Benjamin Fulford made the claim in 2007 that SARS is just such a genetically-selective bioweapon, designed to racially target Asians, specifically Chinese. Likewise, biologist Mae-Wan Ho finds a natural source for SARS implausible. She details the fingerprints of genetic engineering in its biological code which has very unusual features. The spike protein feature alone is enough to trigger serious autoimmune responses, and you can't vaccinate people against their own genes. http://www.i-sis.org.uk/SVGE.php An Israeli doctor claims that, "In my 'heart of hearts' I believe that SARS is genetically engineered to target Chinese (Oriental) genetic materials. You may already know that Israel has been working on such a thing, specific to Arab genetic material. Knowing the military-industrial-medical cartel like I do, I would not be surprised if this isn't a 'test market' for something more sinister regarding other populations. What leads me to suspect that genetics are involved is that China is now trying to impose the death penalty on anyone who has contracted SARS. This lets me know that it is much more sinister than an ugly flu strain." Another doctor, Dr. Robert Lee concludes, "I believe it is likely that SARS coronavirus will disproportionately infect those of Asian, African, and Hispanic extraction and less likely those of Northern European extraction." Meanwhile, the Chinese are prepared to terminate those who break quarantine. AIDS, considered genetically-engineered by many, created a holocaust amongs gays. It moved on to create a genocidal factor throughout Africa. The agenda again is one of depopulation, the old rubric of culling the surplus population. It is possible that when MJR was judged "mentally unstable" and fantasy-prone in the 1970s that the psychologists simply lacked the intelligence knowledge base to determine his veracity. He had already peeked behind the curtains. When hi tech emerges from the shadows, it often appears magical for a time. What shrink 20 years ago would have bought into cloaks of invisibility, but now we have stealth. Airing Dirty Laundry
Hadron tried unsuccessfully to buy Inslaw and its PROMIS (Prosecutor's Management Information System) software in 1983. In 1982 the firm signed a three year contract for $10 million with the U.S. Department of Justice for a case-management computer program that enabled the U.S. attorneys to keep track of information on cases, witnesses and defendants, and to manage their caseloads more effectively. It could be used not only for cracking business, national or international computer systems, but also be modified to track money laundering, even CIA money laundering.
With Riconoscuito's credentials acclaimed by Congress and the Grand Jury, he further stated that he facilitated the laundering of CIA funds via his expertise in manipulating electronic data transmission equipment. This included the transfer of funds which were involved in the October Surprise payment to the Ayatollah Khomeini's regime in Iran. He said he was also responsible for the manner in which [the CIA] caused the interdiction of funds from the sale of Red Chinese gold and the manner in which large sums of CIA funds were secreted and knowledge of where those funds are located.www.toddjumper.com/eaglenet...wo57.html
By 1985, Inslaw was forced into bankruptcy in a DoJ investigation. When Inslaw refused to sell to Hadron, DOJ tried to bankrupt and liquidate Inslaw forcing the rock bottom sale of its assets, including PROMIS, perhaps to Hadron. The software was a reward for Earl Brian's role in arranging the so-called 'October Surprise' gambit. After Earl Brian sold PROMIS around the world, he returned his interests to genetic research, biological technology.
Wackenhut, a “private FBI” with black budget connections, is also linked to the Inslaw scandal. MJR said, “The purpose of the PROMIS software modification that I made in 1983 and 1984 was to support a plan for the implementation of PROMIS in law enforcement and intelligence agencies worldwide. Earl W. Brian was spearheading the plan for this worldwide use of the PROMIS computer software.”
Michael Riconosciuto was director of research for the Wackenhut/Cabazon joint venture in the early '80s. In a March 1991 affidavit for the Inslaw case, Riconosciuto claimed that "in connection with [Riconosciuto's] work for Wackenhut," he modified the stolen Promis software for foreign sales. "Earl W. Brian made [the software program] available to me through Wackenhut after acquiring it from Peter Videnieks, who was then a Department of Justice contracting official with responsibility for the Promis software." Videnieks, a former Customs Service official under Commissioner Chasen, served in the Justice Department from 1981 through 1990.
Not Wacko, Just a Wacken-Spy
In his affidavit, Riconosciuto said Videnieks had threatened to retaliate against Riconosciuto if he cooperated with a House Judiciary Committee probe of the Inslaw case. Seven days after filing the affidavit (which was not, technically, part of the committee investigation), Riconosciuto was arrested on drug-selling charges. www.matarese.com/matarese-...index.html
One week after giving an affidavit to Inslaw regarding the PROMIS software in 1991, Riconosciuto was arrested on trumped-up drug charges. The Assistant U.S. Attorney prosecuting the case attempted to cover up Riconosciuto's intelligence background by claiming to the jury he was "delusional." A TV station came and pointed a camera out at the desert at Cabazon and said, "Riconosciuto says he modified the PROMIS software here." Of course Riconosciuto didn't modify the software out between the cacti and yucca. Sand isn't good for computers. He did the modifications in offices in nearby Indio, California. The AUSA told reporters Riconosciuto had been diagnosed with a mental condition, the implication being "he's making all this stuff up". Yes, there had been a mental evaluation of Riconosciuto. I have a copy of the report. The diagnosis? Here it is: NO MENTAL DISORDER. The Department of Justice consistently and maliciously lied to the jury, just as had been threatened by Justice Department official Peter Viednicks if Riconosciuto cooperated with the congressional investigation of PROMIS. (Grabbe)
On the Warpath
This scandal was closely tied to shady dealings by Wackenhut (second largest privte security firm in the US) to develop biological warfare viruses on the Cabazon Indian reservation in Indio, California. According to Spy Magazine, by 1966, “Wackenhut could confidently state that it had secret files on 4 million Americans.”
And, “Wackenhut has been involved with the CIA, ex-analyst says, on a quid pro quo basis.” They subcontracted black ops projects. “Wackenhut has been used by the CIA and other intelligence agencies for years…When they {the CIA} need cover, Wackenhut is there to provide it for them.” CIA director William Casey had once been Wackenhut’s lawyer. Is it surprising then that CIA used Wackenhut to conduct operations it was forbidden to undertake and wants to hide from Congress?
Wackenhut Corporation services included guards and electronic security for banks, office buildings, apartments, industrial complexes, even underground bases. In order to develop vaccines, which sounds innocuous enough, the virus must first be created. Biological warfare viruses have to be highly sophisticated to be used in military applications.
In 1981, Berckmans, the CIA agent turned Wackenhut vice president, joined with other senior Wackenhut executives to form the company's Special Projects Division. It was this division that linked up with ex-CIA man John Philip Nichols, who had taken over the Cabazon Indian reservation in California, as we described in a previous article {"Badlands;" April 1992}, in pursuit of a scheme to manufacture explosives, poison gas and biological weapons—and then, by virtue of the tribe's status as a sovereign nation, to export the weapons to the Contras. (Spy Magazine)
The darker side of Wackenhut's ambitious enterprise, is its direct involvement in illegal and black projects. In the early 1980s, Dr. John Nichols, the Cabazon tribal administrator, by obtaining a Department of Defense secret facility clearance for reservation to conduct various research projects, approached Wackenhut with a detailed joint-venture proposal to manufacture 120mm combustible cartridge cases, 9mm machine guns, laser-sighted assault weapons, sniper rifles, as well as portable rocket-launchers to be built on the Cabazon Reservation, and in Latin America. Details to develop biological weapons were among these proposals.
The reservation was a favorite visiting spot for Saudi sheiks, mob leaders, politicians, military officers, and foreign intelligence people. Two important visitors were Dr. Earl Brian, a businessman with long CIA ties and Peter Videnieks, a Customs lawyer on loan to Justice who Michael said managed the Department a software system. Brian was said to have had many transactions through BCCI and banks in Switzerland and the Cayman Islands. According to both Mike and Bob Nichols, Videnieks was involved with them and Dr. Earl Brian in Hadron Corporation, which tried to buy Inslaw, producer of PROMIS software. Hadron also manufactured lasers. Nicaraguan Contra leaders visited it because weapons were being manufactured there for their use. (Michael Riconosciuto: The Math/Science Wizard Who Said too much, Part 4, by Sherman De Brosse)
Any type of biological research on an Indian reservation is not subject to scrutiny by the federal government because Indian reservations are sovereign nations. Wackenhut Corporation attempted to sell "biological warfare viruses" and vaccine kits to the U.S. government to be used against “small countries bordering Albania or large countries bordering the Soviet Union.”
William C. Patrick, III developed the process by which anthrax spores could be concentrated at the level of one trillion spores per gram. Patrick has worked with Kanatjan Alibekov, known as "Ken Alibek" since he defected to the US in 1992. Remember, Alibek served as manager for a CIA biological warfare program in 1998. In Russia, Alibek was the No. 2 expert in the FSU's biowarfare program, under Vladimir Pasechnik.
Ken Alibek became President of Hadron Advanced Biosystems, a subsidiary of Alexandria, Va.-based Hadron, Inc., specializing in “the development of technical solutions for the intelligence community.” It received millions in funding for medical biodefense research in the field of non-specific immunity from the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, the US Army Medical Research and Materiel Command, and the NIH. Social Power: Accelerated Social Change / Culled Population
We can follow the backtrail to governmentally sponsored anthrax to Gulf War Syndrome. Keep following the “usual suspects.” When it comes to social or biological engineering, especially eugenics, the prime suspect is the perennially reappearing chimera of the globalist agenda, Tavistock Institute in Britain and one of its primary U.S. outposts, Michigan University, Ann Arbor.
Tavistock thinktank was created for healing shell shock but soon turned into the premier mass brainwashing institute with a globalist agenda. The precursor to the infamous CIA MK-ULTRA mind control program, Tavistock’s agenda is used to topple governments. Tavistock’s spycologists are the founding fathers of mind control.
Tavistock’s objective is to eventually control entire populations with the use of drugs, electronics and sophisticated mind control techniques, including group dynamics and lockdown propaganda. Research into the use of microwave weapons and their use for mind control began there in the 1950s. Tavistock was behind the creation and direction of the Office of Naval Intelligence (ONI).
The Cryptocracy, through economics and mass mind control is involved in the transformation or "alchemical processing" of mass consciousness by psychological mind manipulation. With the help of these foundations and secret societies, experiments in world shaping continue multimedia and military campaigns. The goal is to seed and control megatrends so the masses live as controlled puppets – wage slaves -- of the ruling elite.
Their “endgame” includes radical population reduction employing a variety of pathogens and other means. Thus, Tavistock wrote the blueprint for germ biowarfare (BW) as well as drug and chemical assaults (CBW). A thinktank for the global shadow government, Tavistock plays a pivotal role in shaping political, social, educational, and economic 'opinions', especially in the United States.
Biowarfare aspects of MK ULTRA and MK NAOMI
There is a vast uncharted history of public policy and ethics, or lack thereof, in medicine in the national-security world. Bioethics doesn't usually include the Defense Department, DARPA, or DIA activities. History and political considerations are seamlessly welded. But many developments have the potential to change civilian life as much or more radically than military practice. In the 21st century, biotechnical enhancements will call into question what it means to be human -- and who will control that. The US began its active biological warfare program in the 1940s. In 1941, it implemented a clandestine program to develop offensive and allegedly defensive bioweapons using controversial testing methods. Fort Detrick was home to the Army Biological Warfare Laboratories from 1943 until 1969, conducting top-secret production of offensive biological weapons. Most research and development is still conducted at Fort Detrick, MD., Los Alamos and Lawrence Livermore labs, Pine Bluff, AR. and Dugway Proving Ground, UT.
A legacy from WWII Japanese Unit 731, modern biowarfare is the brainchild of DoD and CIA. Experimental biowarfare and drug research was conducted under “mind kontrol” programs called MK ULTRA and MK NAOMI. As is often the case, ultrasecret tasks were sent to subcontractors. Crystalline Brucella was an especially useful agent in germ warfare.
“The title page of a US Senate Study, declassified on February 24, 1977, shows that George Merck, of the pharmaceutical company, Merck Sharp & Dohme (which now makes cures for diseases that at one time it created), reported in 1946 to the US Secretary of War that his researchers had managed "for the first time" to "isolate the disease agent in crystalline form."
“They had produced a crystalline bacterial toxin extracted from the Brucella bacterium [which] could be removed in crystalline form and stored, transported and deployed without deteriorating. It could be delivered by other vectors such as insects, aerosol or the food chain (in nature it is delivered within the bacterium). But the factor that is working in the Brucella is the mycoplasma. One salt shaker of the pure disease agent in a crystalline form could sicken the entire population of Canada. It is absolutely deadly, not so much in terms of killing the body but disabling it.
“Because the crystalline disease agent goes into solution in the blood, ordinary blood and tissue tests will not reveal its presence. The mycoplasma will only crystallise at 8.1 pH, and the blood has a pH of 7.4 pH. So the doctor thinks your complaint is "all in your head". (Scott, 2002)
Anonymous Testimony
Our “Deep Throat” microbiologist can connect many dots from personal experience in this chain of events: “My first job in DC was a front researching the paranormal, esoterics and alternative healing. The previously mention mycoplasma program was part of MK Ultra.”
The key brucella experts in the WW II era later went to Michigan State University Dept. of Microbiology and Public Health. The top US Government’s brucellosis expert from the late 1930's thru the 1970's worked in the graduate program. That Department at Michigan State supervised the Michigan Dept. of Health with the anthrax vaccine, which was contaminated with mycoplasma, the probable cause of severe Gulf War Syndrome.
Artificial mycoplasma were developed from the brucella bacteria. In fact the m.fermantans genome is an exact copy of part of the Brucella. The anthrax vaccine used in the Gulf War was produced by the Michigan Dept. of Health under the supervision of the Dept. of Public Health at Michigan State University. The first weaponized mycoplasma were made at a “Tavistock Institute West” clone.
Also, the media did a cover-up. Peter Jennings at ABC News played the lead role with an infomercial for CIPRO before the anthrax letters were mailed. He continued to hype CIPRO throughout the Anthrax crisis even though there are cheaper and better drugs available, including penicillin V. One of the toxic anthrax letters was sent to Senator Leahy's office. His staff then covered up the investigation of Peter Jennings. So there is your media, bureaucracy and academia in action.
The US Senate Judiciary Commitee investigated this. then headed by Senator Leahy. His staff covered it up. The media refuses to cover the story. Meanwhile the FBI and New York Times persisted in trying to frame Dr. Hatfill.
“Toxic vaccine is the almost certain cause of Gulf War Syndrome which has killed countless veterans and caregivers. The weaponized mycoplasma spread through the Gulf. It came back with vets to the US. It is the specific cause of Osama bin-Laden's rise to power thru his support by Saudi Arabia. Add this to the anthrax story and you have a very big story!
“I believe Gulf War Syndrome was caused by mycoplasma contamination of the expired anthrax vaccine. Spread of artificial mycoplasma also has caused something like Gulf War Syndrome in Iraq, Kuwait, Jordan and northern Saudi Arabia approx 15% of the population is involved. That is arguably the excuse for Osama bin Laden to launch his terrorist war!
“I reject Depleted Uranium as one of the main sources of Gulf War Syndrome. “The Brucellosis Triangle" has been covered in NEXUS Magazine. Dirty anthrax vaccine is the probable cause of severe Gulf War Syndrome.
“There are several causes for Gulf War Syndrome. I have interviewed the persecuted and maligned Dr. Garth Nicolson, the most published microbiologist worldwide. His group has treated Gulf War soldiers with drugs which are effective against mycoplasma infections. The mycoplasma found in Gulf War veterans sometimes has gp 120 protein attachments.
“Dr. Nicolson’s story is compelling including attempts by biowar terrorist companies on the life of his staff and FBI guards. He was fired from M.D. Anderson Cancer Hospital in Texas. His group is now based in Irvine, California. He claims that 15% to 20% of the population in Iraq, southern Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and Jordan have Gulf War syndrome.
“There are very strange neoplasms in Gulf War III soldiers. As the article states, the disability rate for Gulf War II is incredible. NEXUS had an article on ‘The Brucellosis Triangle’ just before 9/11. It deals with the origins of the 90 plus species of mycoplasma. During WW II the Brucella bacteria was modified and a crystalized toxin was produced (artificial mycoplasma). The gene sequence of mycoplasma fermentans is an exact copy of part of the Brucella genome.
“These mycoplasma were tested worldwide after WW II causing a number of neurogenic illnesses including Parkinson's Disease, MS, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, etc The Gulf War Anthrax vaccine was produced by the Michigan Dept. of Health in Lansing under the supervision of the Dept. at MSU. Gulf War Syndrome is associated very closely with that vaccine which was contaminated with mycoplasma.
“Many claim it, but what evidence do you have depleted uranium (DU) is the actual cause of the bizarre cancers, etc. seen in Gulf War III? The only proven effect of depleted uranium is kidney damage. How do you know the DU story isn't part of the cover-up for the mycoplasma fermentans story? "
NSA “Mr. Spock” Spook Confirms
Any good story needs secondary confirmation and we have it, -- again anonymous -- retired from NSA. “Spock” says, “anthrax vaccine is responsible for Gulf War Syndrome. It is based on a mycoplasma contamination with a GP 120 protein attachment. Mycoplasma are artificially made from Brucella starting in WW II.”
“.. [Your source] is right about anthrax vaccine; it was way out of date and full of all kinds of mycoplasma, as are ALL out of date vaccines that were sloppily made in the first place. With means of inactivating the selenocysteine product, glutathione peroxidase an essential enzyme; antibiotic+selenocysteine= mycoplasma out! The immune suppressing bacterial DNA particle (now known as the mycoplasmal species fermentans) was based upon the research of Dr. Robert Huebner and carried forward at the Wistar Institute of Philadelphia among other places.”
“It is delivered by airplane - caused mini-epidemic of walking pneumonia in NW Washington DC, in 1985, which drew my attention. “X” got it, my wife got it - only person not getting it was me because I was breathing selenium fumes all night. I gave samples of air collected pathogen to “X” to head of OMI. April 86. Two months later, Army patented the new (but old) bug so they could make a portable test. Patent upgraded twice, til 1993. Army was not making warbug but securing defense against possible "near-future" warbug; unusually virulent mycoplasma, which is not fermentans incognitus but hominus incognitus-b “
“Contrails --loaded INADVERTANTLY with mycoplasma strain that teams with strep to make flesh eating strep old anthrax vaccine - loaded with mycoplasma. DU- furthur depletes "correct" selenium WHICH WE CANNOT SYNTHESIZE!!
“The Michigan State info on transforming brucella into a mycoplasma in 1930s, 1940s is accurate, in possession of US ARMY classified secret. mycoplasma fermentans is not derived from brucella…mechanism of depleted uranium (chemically like iron) and mycoplasma is to deplete body of selenium and glutathione peroxidase.
“I discovered re-emerged GW mycoplasma all over Washington DC in 1986. “X” was having lunch with MAG associated head of Army medical intelligence once a week at HQ at Walter Reed Hospital. I copied secret Army papers from Michigan State in the 30's 40s' and gave “X” samples of organism. “X” was easily cleared for old secret level docs. “X” took it to OMI and "new" mycoplasma was discovered.”
Quo Vadis?
Biowarfare’s goal is simply the transmission of disease. It is arguably as old as mankind. The first recorded example is the Hittites use of plague infected rams, 3300 years ago. "Hittite plague" raged through the Middle East in the 14th century B.C.
Contamination of water was another common tactic. The ancient Assyrians (whose civilization began around 2400 B.C. in modern Turkey, Iran, Syria and Iraq) poisoned enemy wells with ergot, an LSD-like fungus that grows on wheat, rye and other grains.
Historically, smallpox and anthrax have been used against adversaries. Anthrax infection was known to the Israelites in Egypt who used figs as a rememdy for skin lesions. In the medieval period diseased corpses were catapulted into besieged fortresses.The Mongols did the same with bubonic plague victims.
On Sept. 11, 2001, reports the Washington Post, "there were only five 'biosafety level 4' labs – places equipped to study highly lethal agents such as Ebola that have no human vaccine or treatment – a Government Accountability Office report stated last fall. Fifteen are in operation or under construction now, according to the report. There are hundreds more biosafety level 3 labs, which handle agents such as Bacillus anthracis, which does have a human vaccine."
The few hundred people at work in the U.S. bio-defense program before 9/11 have swelled to perhaps 14,000 scientists who have "clearances to work with 'select biological agents' such as Bacillus anthracis – many of them civilians working at private universities" where, according to experts, "security regulations are remarkably lax."
And don't forget the Army's own billion-dollar plan to "build a larger laboratory complex as part of a proposed interagency biodefense campus at Fort Detrick." We're talking about the place where, as Ivins' crew was evidently nicknamed, "Team Anthrax" worked and whose labs are reputedly "renowned for losing anthrax." In these same years, according to the New York Times, "almost $50 billion in federal money has been spent to build new laboratories, develop vaccines and stockpile drugs." (Engelhardt)
Great ILLusion
Where are we going with today’s black ops germ warfare? Lab space for such work has increased 10-fold since 2001. Thousands of scientists are now working with bioweapons agents, many for the first time. More than 14,000 scientists have been approved to work with so-called select agents like anthrax that usually pose little threat to public health unless they are used as bioweapons. Genetically engineered constructs are escaping into the environment, speeding up recombination and jumping species barriers. This is the major route to creating new diseases. With this routine release, we don't need terrorists to create new epidemics. Bioweapon and GM control must come together. By default or design it is still bioterrorism.
No good can come of it. Yet “hope” is a whore that should be strangled because it offers only delusion for consolation. Our only protection is good food, water and healthy immune systems. The pretzel twist is that those are prime targets in the war that never ends. You are in the bullseye. Germ warfare is GOD’s timebomb – Gold, Oil, & Drugs. Endnotes REFERENCES

By 1966, Wackenhut could confidently state that it had secret files on 4 million Americans. Michael Riconosciuto is the mysterious convicted drug dealer who became a government informer and then became a Wackenhut employee, and who is now back in jail [see "Badlands," April 19921 He told SPY that during the early 1980s he was "working for Wackenhut to adapt Inslaw's Promis." Promis is the computer program allegedly stolen by Reagan-administration officials from Inslaw, a software company, and resold for private gain. Although Wackenhut denies any involvement with improper appropriation of software, Riconosciuto said in an interview with SPY that he "met with George Wackenhut and John Ammarell [a Wackenhut board member and consultant to George Wackenhut] in Las Vegas." Riconosciuto went on to say that accompanying him was Dr. John Philip Nichols, the former CIA agent and Wackenhut business partner who was running the shadowy activities on the Cabazon Indian reservation in the California desert. Riconoscinto says that during their Vegas evening together, George Wackenhut ask how his work on the software was coming along. Such comments from a twice-convicted felon would normally be dismissed out of hand. But in an interview with SPY Wackenhut's John Ammarell confided that such a meeting did indeed take place in Las Vegas. "I don't remember any specific conversations," Ammarell said, "but I think we were there to discuss the sale of George's yacht, the Top Secret. I think Nichols said he had a potential buyer." So: The wealthy president of a large security company with CIA ties and one of his board members met with a drug dealer electronics expert and a spook turned arms supplier—and all they discuss is the sale of a boat?

This Germ’s for You
The trigger has already been pulled on the smoking gun of biowarfare and we were all in the crosshairs. In the 1950s-70s, pathogenic mycoplasma were covertly released in top-secret “mock” attacks. Dr Maurice Hilleman, chief virologist for the pharmaceutical company Merck Sharp & Dohme, stated that this disease agent is now carried by everybody in North America and possibly most people throughout the world. (Scott, 2001) Is this what they mean by “better living through chemistry?”
Testing open air dispersal on the domestic front contaminated virtually everyone and set time bombs ticking in many. The neurodegenerative and systemic-degenerative diseases are contagious but only manifest as active diseases if the recipient is genetically pre-disposed, has a compromised immune system, or a triggering trauma.
A Washington DC Microbiologist links Gulf War Syndrome (GWS) to the anthrax story, which led to the suspicious death of “mad scientist,” hypno-patsy Dr. Bruce Ivins. Mycoplasma contaminated anthrax vaccines were used in the Gulf Wars, giving rise to GWS. Mycoplasmas are normally benign but have been bioengineered into “new” diseases that are reaching epidemic proportions.
Similar to bacteria, mycoplasma are a group of small microorganisms without cell walls, between cells and viruses. They can invade and burrow very deep into the cell causing chromic infections. Normal mycoplasma infections produce relatively benign diseases limited to particular tissue sites or organs, but GWS strains are very pathogenic, colonize a variety of organs and tissues, and are very difficult to treat.
According to Dr Shyh-Ching Lo, senior researcher at The Armed Forces Institute of Pathology and one of America’s top mycoplasma researchers, infectious mycoplasmas are implicated in AIDS, cancer, chronic fatigue syndrome, GWS, Crohn’s colitis, Type I diabetes, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s disease, Wegener’s disease and collagen-vascular diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and Alzheimer’s. (Scott) Lyme Disease and West Nile Virus were also weaponized when the military explored mosquitos as a delivery vector. Ironically, our biodefense program has created the very threat it was meant to thwart.
“Anthrax vaccine production continues; Michigan Biologics Remains Open,” UPI 2/16/98 2:40 PM State Health Director James Haveman says the (Lansing-based) state- owned Michigan Biologic Products Institute will continue making the vaccine being given to U.S. active and reserve military personnel under a recent Pentagon directive. The mycoplasma story is associated with Michigan State in Lansing, Michigan. Tavistock is associated with Michigan University in Ann Arbor.
There are 400 bioweapon labs across the U.S. 113 of them refuse to publicly disclose their research. When it comes to Germ Warfare, we have met the enemy and unfortunately, it is us. Medical warfare also includes non-military methods exploiting existing civilian infrastructure to control and/or reduce target populations. As the adage goes, “It is never the same after a war.”
Bio-Terror has Already Affected Us All
A Washington-based microbiologist, who wishes to remain Deep Throat anonymous for health reasons, claims there are many unresolved issues surrounding anthrax and anthrax vaccines. He links experimental military use to covert creation of toxic mycoplasmas and Gulf War Syndrome spread through contaminated anthrax vaccine. But who would knowingly do such a thing and why? They’ve done it before and they’ll do it again.
Could it be the same forces behind the August 2008 “apparent suicide” of hypno-patsy, Army research scientist Dr. Bruce E. Ivins? The Fort Detrick microbiologist worked on a biodefense vaccine for anthrax but wound up accused as the “mad scientist” behind the Anthrax Mailings of 2001 that proved fatal for five victims. Now dead, his innocence until proven guilty is forever moot.
Going Postal
Ironically, Ivins had been used as an expert during the FBI investigation but he buckled under pressure from the federal government after he was committed to a facility for treatment of his depression. Who knows what went on there in the name of “treatment?” Was Ivins a “mad scientist” or another mind-bent Manchurian Candidate secretly programmed for self-destruction by psy-ops – a fall guy?
“Dr. Ivins, growing ever more distressed and evidently ever less balanced, committed suicide (with Tylenol) on the day his lawyer was meeting with the FBI about a possible plea bargain that could have left him in jail for life, but would have taken the death penalty off the table.” (Engelhardt)
Richard. Spertzel, head of the biological-weapons section of Unscom from 1994-99, was a member of the Iraq Survey Group. He told the Wall Street Journal, he is strongly suspicious of Ivins’ presumed guilt. He knows from lab protocols, Ivins simply couldn’t produce it alone and didn’t have the equipment. (Madsen) A lone scientist is as unlikely as a “lone gunman.”
Other watchdogs think Ivins’ accusation too convenient for the lame-duck Bush Administration since it officially closes the case to further investigation. It has been suggested the perpetrator is the government itself. As usual, the policy is one of denial. But, why else did the FBI drag its feet?
Amerithrax
“Congress originally passed the Patriot Act during an anthrax attack on the offices of the Senate Democratic Majority Leader and the Chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee. Although the anthrax used in the attack was traced to a strain maintained by the U.S. Army Medical Research Institute for Infectious Diseases (USAMRIID) at Ft. Detrick, Maryland, the perpetrators were never found.”
“…The original Fort Detrick anthrax development program… 'Officially’ ended in 1972 when President Nixon signed, along with the Soviet Union and United Kingdom, the Biological Weapons Convention. Nixon had actually ordered the Pentagon to stop producing biological weapons in 1969. It now seems likely that the U.S. military and intelligence community failed to follow Nixon's orders and, in fact, have consistently violated a lawful treaty signed by the United States.”
“The BBC reported that Battelle Memorial Institute (a favorite Pentagon and CIA contractor and for whom Alibek served as biological warfare program manager in 1998) conducted a secret biological warfare test in the Nevada desert using genetically-modified anthrax…right before the terrorist attacks. The BBC reported that Patrick's paper on sending anthrax through the mail was also part of the classified contractor work on the deadly bacterial agent. ” (Madsen, 2008)
Microbiology: Hazardous to Your Health
What is scarier – a foreign bioterrorist attack or our own rogue scientist who has lost control? How about a rogue government hijacked from its citizenry base and the Constitution? We’ve met the enemy and it’s us. Even if we are just guilty of complacency, that is no excuse for criminal activities carried on in the name of our military and state security.
Guilty or innocent himself, Ivins’ mysterious death refocuses public attention on the long notorious history of biowarfare (BW) and the engineering of chemical and biological lethal agents (CBW). Biological agents, though banned, are a seductive weapon of mass destruction because they are easily deployed in bombs and aerosols. There has been clandestine research, development and testing of some very scary pathogens. We were all the unwitting guinea pigs.
Systemic Mycoplasma Infections are found in patients with: Gulf War Syndrome, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Myalgic Encephalomyelitis, Fibromyalgia, Lyme Disease, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Systemic Lupus Erythematosus, Scleroderma, Sjogren's Syndrome, Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, Multiple Sclerosis, Cystic Fibrosis, Asthma, Respiratory Distress Syndrome, Pneumonia, Bronchitis, Inflammatory Bowel Disease, Sarcoidosis, Wegener's Disease, Kikuchi's Disease, Leukemia, Alzheimer's Disease, Autism, Infertility, Stevens-Johnson Syndrome, and Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome, Hypercoagulation, Heart Disease, Stroke and Cancer. www.thepowerhour.com/news/my...ting.htm
Many doctors don’t know about this mycoplasma disease agent because it was developed by the US military in biological warfare experimentation and it was not made public. This pathogen was patented by the United States military and Dr Shyh-Ching Lo. "Pathogenic Mycoplasma", US Patent No. 5,242,820, issued September 7, 1993. Dr Lo is listed as the Inventor" and the American Registry of Pathology, Washington, DC, is listed as the "Assignee".
These are diseases that have existed for thousands of years, but they have been weaponised—which means they’ve been made more contagious and more effective. And they are spreading. this disease agent causes many illnesses including AIDS, cancer, chronic fatigue syndrome, Crohn’s colitis, Type I diabetes, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s disease, Wegener’s disease and collagen-vascular diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and Alzheimer’s . (Scott, 2001)
What would account for an unlikely epidemic of self-destructive microbiologists and computer experts? Being a microbiologist has become a dangerous occupation as over 100 of these scientists and their IT counterparts have died mysteriously over the last few years. What better way to find out who knows too much than cracking their research databases? Could it be their clandestine research has lifted the toxic curtain that veils an agenda of mass human extermination – the ecologically mandated “Die Off” of 4 billion “useless eaters?” Illumin-Naughty Broken PROMIS: Tentacles of Cryptocracy
In Intelligence they eat their own. The sinister webwork is littered with stolen and broken promises. This germy story is linked to “The Octopus” (intelligence and black ops for profit) conspiracy and the PROMIS software scandal of the 1980s as described by eccentric scientific genius Michael James Roconosciuto, (pronounced Riconoshooto), weapons systems designer and computer software expert.
He’s been accused of being a publicity-seeking pathological liar and a disinformation agent, but the intervening years have proved him right more often than not. He has one foot in the drug underground and the other in hi tech intelligence. Still, even after he went to prison, he continued making uncanny predictions.
MJR was involved in a variety of sensitive intelligence projects besides PROMIS, from selling shoulder-fired missiles to Osama bin Laden during “Charlie Wilson’s War,” to hi-tech top-down computer programming operations, microwave transmissions, digital cash dispersal, cryptoanalytic attack, to germ warfare, and alleged drug dealing. It wouldn’t be far off to say he operated like a gangster. That is to say, this wise-guy knows the score when it comes to both state-sponsored and organized transnational crime
He even predicted 9/11 by hijacking but was ignored. According to Riconosciuto, if properly investigated, the events of 911 may not have occurred. On February 5, 2001, Riconosciuto wrote a certified letter to his attorney, Don Bailey, that he had contact with someone in an Islamic group called the "Base" (AI Qaeda), and that said group was currently in preparation for an attack in the United States, but would not divulge specific details unless the U.S. Government granted immunity from prosecution to his sources. In this letter, Riconosciuto also stated that he had an inside source who could furnish information concerning the handling of false IDs and passports for the group. (Ted Gundersson, tedgunderson.com/)
PROMIS was a people-tracking software system sold to intelligence organizations and government drug agencies worldwide. The global dispersion of PROMIS to 88 countries was part of a U.S. plot to spy on other spy agencies. Riconosciuto is one of the architects of the PROMIS backdoor. The original backdoor was a signal using a specialized chip that broadcast the contents of the existing database to monitoring vans or collection satellites using digital spread spectrum data compression whenever the software was run.
The SIGINT was embedded as ordinary computer “noise,” actually encrypted stream cipher. A stream cipher applies a time- varying transformation to individual digits or bits of data. "Time-varying" means the same sequence of plaintext data bits seen at two different points in time will be encrypted to a different sequence of ciphertext data bits. The most famous stream cipher is the Verdam cipher, or “one-time pad.” It requires independent, uniform distribution of the keys, which are used only once and then discarded.
PROMIS was eventually even sold for $2 million to the Russians by infamous traitor Robert Hanssen, who worked for FBI. The Russians passed it on to bin Laden, allowing him to monitor U.S. efforts to track him down, federal law enforcement officials said, according to the Washington Post.
October 26, 2001. Brit Hume. The software program is called Promis. Sources tell Fox that U.S. law enforcement and intelligence agencies have used and constantly modified Promis software to manage caseloads, track and store classified information, and keep it secure for decades.
But the concern is that bin Laden or Al Qaeda could get on-line and use it to monitor the worldwide criminal investigation and hide themselves, to monitor the worldwide financial investigation and hide their money, or monitor government operations of the governments that use the software.
As a senior agent in the FBI's counterterrorism bureau, sources say Hanssen was tasked with helping allies like Germany and England with the installation and use of their versions of the PROMIS program. Numerous countries now, however, are tightening their cyber security, including Germany, Great Britain and Canada has actually investigated potential tampering with its Promis programs. Israel has used it on and off for years, too. www.boingboing.net/2001/10/...it-w.html
In an interview with this author (Miller) shortly before he went to prison, MJR personally recounted the tangled story of the many tentacles of the metacontrol system, “The Octopus.” His story got weirder than The Matrix but he was perfectly lucid, easily recounting names, dates and particulars, seemingly eager to spread his story in a futile gesture to protect himself from what he perceived correctly as immanent danger. His well-placed “partners” had turned on him. This explained why he had arrived in Southern Oregon “on the lamb” in a Winnebago with a gun turret and a phalanx of body guards.
Michael Riconoscuito was a computer expert for the Central Intelligence Agency, he was their Einstein. There was nothing he couldn't do with a computer, for good or for bad. But he had many secrets and he began to see the ruthlessness of his colleagues. Michael Riconoscuito decided to testify about massive corruption in the U.S. Justice Department and the intelligence agency. He agreed to provide his insider knowledge to the U.S. House Judiciary Committee investigating the Inslaw affair. www.toddjumper.com/eaglenet...wo57.html
Iran-Contra
Roconosciuto subsequently told his story in print but the details and analysis remain the same. This is the dangerous story that got investigative journalist Danny Casolaro killed in 1991 (another “apparent suicide”), best summarized in The Final Circle, by Carol Marshall (1996), who used MJR’s secret files to connect the dots. This is the story that turned MJR’s handlers against him and “poisoned the well,” sending him to prison where he’s been denied adequate medical care.
Casolaro was trying to prove that the alleged theft of the Inslaw computer program, PROMIS, was related to the October Surprise scandal, the Iran-Contra affair and the collapse of BCCI (Bank of Credit and Commerce International). It’s no surprise Casolaro dubbed former child prodigy “Magic Mike,” now CIA rogue, “Danger Man.”
Shockingly, Riconosciuto claimed that he and Earl Brian had traveled to Iran in 1980 and paid $40 million to Iranian officials to persuade them NOT to release the hostages before the first presidential election won in 1980 by Ronald Reagan with Bush 41 as his V.P. He also claimed to be connected to satanic cults, small arms trafficking, the covert use of Indian reservations nationwide, bio-mass burning plants, "Trojan horses" installed in computers, the Nixon/Reagan/Bush mafia, money laundering through the national HUD agency, the CIA/mafia bust out of savings and loans, sexual slaves used to compromise power mongers, Vietnam drug money laundered to CIA banks, fuel explosives, [and] chemical and biological warfare weapons.
What brought journalist Casolaro to Riconosciuto was an affidavit where MJR claimed that when he worked on the Wackenhut-Cabazon project, he was given a copy of the Inslaw software by Dr. Earl Brian for modification. Riconosciuto also swore that Peter Videnieks, a Justice Department official associated with the Inslaw contract, had visited the Wackenhut-Cabazon project with Earl Brian. Other sources acknowledge that Riconosciuto and Brian were indeed involved in a joint venture between the Cabazon Indians and the Wackenhut Corporation.
Earl Brian ran Hadron, a front company founded in the 80s for questionable activity including germ warfare. Nearly every hospital in the world buys their products. Hadron, with Dr. Earl Brian as director, also provided engineering and computer consulting services. Brian was convicted in the 1980s on fraud charges.
Both Hadron and Dr. Brian were linked with the theft of enhanced PROMIS software from its owner, the Inslaw Corporation. PROMIS was a highly sophisticated computer program capable of integrating a wide variety of databases, now reportedly mated with artificial intelligence. PROMIS was modified for intelligence with a back door that allows for surreptitious retrieval of stored data from adversaries.
Bio Rad made the most hazardous medical, biological and nuclear chemicals in the world. BioRad’s Earl Brian started InfoTech, then Hadron to protect the parent company from lawsuits. MJR claims they had the capacity to bioengineer DNA based, genetically targeted pathogens – ethnic bioweapons. In fact, he claimed to engineer them himself with gene-splicing.
Riconosciuto would make additional claims about Bio-Rad corporation, a medical supplier which had gradually taken over Hercules, California. They were also, Riconosciuto would say, covertly engaged in bio-warfare research—producing some of the deadliest toxins known to man. The focus of Bio-Rad's research was said to be bio-active elements that could be tailored to attack those with certain types of DNA. Weapons could thus be produced that were specifically designed to wipe out specific races or genetic classes of human beings. (Alternatively, particular DNA types could be immunized against a deadly biological agent; the agent could then be released, and everyone else would die.) (Grabbe) Sound inplausible? Benjamin Fulford made the claim in 2007 that SARS is just such a genetically-selective bioweapon, designed to racially target Asians, specifically Chinese. Likewise, biologist Mae-Wan Ho finds a natural source for SARS implausible. She details the fingerprints of genetic engineering in its biological code which has very unusual features. The spike protein feature alone is enough to trigger serious autoimmune responses, and you can't vaccinate people against their own genes. http://www.i-sis.org.uk/SVGE.php An Israeli doctor claims that, "In my 'heart of hearts' I believe that SARS is genetically engineered to target Chinese (Oriental) genetic materials. You may already know that Israel has been working on such a thing, specific to Arab genetic material. Knowing the military-industrial-medical cartel like I do, I would not be surprised if this isn't a 'test market' for something more sinister regarding other populations. What leads me to suspect that genetics are involved is that China is now trying to impose the death penalty on anyone who has contracted SARS. This lets me know that it is much more sinister than an ugly flu strain." Another doctor, Dr. Robert Lee concludes, "I believe it is likely that SARS coronavirus will disproportionately infect those of Asian, African, and Hispanic extraction and less likely those of Northern European extraction." Meanwhile, the Chinese are prepared to terminate those who break quarantine. AIDS, considered genetically-engineered by many, created a holocaust amongs gays. It moved on to create a genocidal factor throughout Africa. The agenda again is one of depopulation, the old rubric of culling the surplus population. It is possible that when MJR was judged "mentally unstable" and fantasy-prone in the 1970s that the psychologists simply lacked the intelligence knowledge base to determine his veracity. He had already peeked behind the curtains. When hi tech emerges from the shadows, it often appears magical for a time. What shrink 20 years ago would have bought into cloaks of invisibility, but now we have stealth. Airing Dirty Laundry
Hadron tried unsuccessfully to buy Inslaw and its PROMIS (Prosecutor's Management Information System) software in 1983. In 1982 the firm signed a three year contract for $10 million with the U.S. Department of Justice for a case-management computer program that enabled the U.S. attorneys to keep track of information on cases, witnesses and defendants, and to manage their caseloads more effectively. It could be used not only for cracking business, national or international computer systems, but also be modified to track money laundering, even CIA money laundering.
With Riconoscuito's credentials acclaimed by Congress and the Grand Jury, he further stated that he facilitated the laundering of CIA funds via his expertise in manipulating electronic data transmission equipment. This included the transfer of funds which were involved in the October Surprise payment to the Ayatollah Khomeini's regime in Iran. He said he was also responsible for the manner in which [the CIA] caused the interdiction of funds from the sale of Red Chinese gold and the manner in which large sums of CIA funds were secreted and knowledge of where those funds are located.www.toddjumper.com/eaglenet...wo57.html
By 1985, Inslaw was forced into bankruptcy in a DoJ investigation. When Inslaw refused to sell to Hadron, DOJ tried to bankrupt and liquidate Inslaw forcing the rock bottom sale of its assets, including PROMIS, perhaps to Hadron. The software was a reward for Earl Brian's role in arranging the so-called 'October Surprise' gambit. After Earl Brian sold PROMIS around the world, he returned his interests to genetic research, biological technology.
Wackenhut, a “private FBI” with black budget connections, is also linked to the Inslaw scandal. MJR said, “The purpose of the PROMIS software modification that I made in 1983 and 1984 was to support a plan for the implementation of PROMIS in law enforcement and intelligence agencies worldwide. Earl W. Brian was spearheading the plan for this worldwide use of the PROMIS computer software.”
Michael Riconosciuto was director of research for the Wackenhut/Cabazon joint venture in the early '80s. In a March 1991 affidavit for the Inslaw case, Riconosciuto claimed that "in connection with [Riconosciuto's] work for Wackenhut," he modified the stolen Promis software for foreign sales. "Earl W. Brian made [the software program] available to me through Wackenhut after acquiring it from Peter Videnieks, who was then a Department of Justice contracting official with responsibility for the Promis software." Videnieks, a former Customs Service official under Commissioner Chasen, served in the Justice Department from 1981 through 1990.
Not Wacko, Just a Wacken-Spy
In his affidavit, Riconosciuto said Videnieks had threatened to retaliate against Riconosciuto if he cooperated with a House Judiciary Committee probe of the Inslaw case. Seven days after filing the affidavit (which was not, technically, part of the committee investigation), Riconosciuto was arrested on drug-selling charges. www.matarese.com/matarese-...index.html
One week after giving an affidavit to Inslaw regarding the PROMIS software in 1991, Riconosciuto was arrested on trumped-up drug charges. The Assistant U.S. Attorney prosecuting the case attempted to cover up Riconosciuto's intelligence background by claiming to the jury he was "delusional." A TV station came and pointed a camera out at the desert at Cabazon and said, "Riconosciuto says he modified the PROMIS software here." Of course Riconosciuto didn't modify the software out between the cacti and yucca. Sand isn't good for computers. He did the modifications in offices in nearby Indio, California. The AUSA told reporters Riconosciuto had been diagnosed with a mental condition, the implication being "he's making all this stuff up". Yes, there had been a mental evaluation of Riconosciuto. I have a copy of the report. The diagnosis? Here it is: NO MENTAL DISORDER. The Department of Justice consistently and maliciously lied to the jury, just as had been threatened by Justice Department official Peter Viednicks if Riconosciuto cooperated with the congressional investigation of PROMIS. (Grabbe)
On the Warpath
This scandal was closely tied to shady dealings by Wackenhut (second largest privte security firm in the US) to develop biological warfare viruses on the Cabazon Indian reservation in Indio, California. According to Spy Magazine, by 1966, “Wackenhut could confidently state that it had secret files on 4 million Americans.”
And, “Wackenhut has been involved with the CIA, ex-analyst says, on a quid pro quo basis.” They subcontracted black ops projects. “Wackenhut has been used by the CIA and other intelligence agencies for years…When they {the CIA} need cover, Wackenhut is there to provide it for them.” CIA director William Casey had once been Wackenhut’s lawyer. Is it surprising then that CIA used Wackenhut to conduct operations it was forbidden to undertake and wants to hide from Congress?
Wackenhut Corporation services included guards and electronic security for banks, office buildings, apartments, industrial complexes, even underground bases. In order to develop vaccines, which sounds innocuous enough, the virus must first be created. Biological warfare viruses have to be highly sophisticated to be used in military applications.
In 1981, Berckmans, the CIA agent turned Wackenhut vice president, joined with other senior Wackenhut executives to form the company's Special Projects Division. It was this division that linked up with ex-CIA man John Philip Nichols, who had taken over the Cabazon Indian reservation in California, as we described in a previous article {"Badlands;" April 1992}, in pursuit of a scheme to manufacture explosives, poison gas and biological weapons—and then, by virtue of the tribe's status as a sovereign nation, to export the weapons to the Contras. (Spy Magazine)
The darker side of Wackenhut's ambitious enterprise, is its direct involvement in illegal and black projects. In the early 1980s, Dr. John Nichols, the Cabazon tribal administrator, by obtaining a Department of Defense secret facility clearance for reservation to conduct various research projects, approached Wackenhut with a detailed joint-venture proposal to manufacture 120mm combustible cartridge cases, 9mm machine guns, laser-sighted assault weapons, sniper rifles, as well as portable rocket-launchers to be built on the Cabazon Reservation, and in Latin America. Details to develop biological weapons were among these proposals.
The reservation was a favorite visiting spot for Saudi sheiks, mob leaders, politicians, military officers, and foreign intelligence people. Two important visitors were Dr. Earl Brian, a businessman with long CIA ties and Peter Videnieks, a Customs lawyer on loan to Justice who Michael said managed the Department a software system. Brian was said to have had many transactions through BCCI and banks in Switzerland and the Cayman Islands. According to both Mike and Bob Nichols, Videnieks was involved with them and Dr. Earl Brian in Hadron Corporation, which tried to buy Inslaw, producer of PROMIS software. Hadron also manufactured lasers. Nicaraguan Contra leaders visited it because weapons were being manufactured there for their use. (Michael Riconosciuto: The Math/Science Wizard Who Said too much, Part 4, by Sherman De Brosse)
Any type of biological research on an Indian reservation is not subject to scrutiny by the federal government because Indian reservations are sovereign nations. Wackenhut Corporation attempted to sell "biological warfare viruses" and vaccine kits to the U.S. government to be used against “small countries bordering Albania or large countries bordering the Soviet Union.”
William C. Patrick, III developed the process by which anthrax spores could be concentrated at the level of one trillion spores per gram. Patrick has worked with Kanatjan Alibekov, known as "Ken Alibek" since he defected to the US in 1992. Remember, Alibek served as manager for a CIA biological warfare program in 1998. In Russia, Alibek was the No. 2 expert in the FSU's biowarfare program, under Vladimir Pasechnik.
Ken Alibek became President of Hadron Advanced Biosystems, a subsidiary of Alexandria, Va.-based Hadron, Inc., specializing in “the development of technical solutions for the intelligence community.” It received millions in funding for medical biodefense research in the field of non-specific immunity from the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, the US Army Medical Research and Materiel Command, and the NIH. Social Power: Accelerated Social Change / Culled Population
We can follow the backtrail to governmentally sponsored anthrax to Gulf War Syndrome. Keep following the “usual suspects.” When it comes to social or biological engineering, especially eugenics, the prime suspect is the perennially reappearing chimera of the globalist agenda, Tavistock Institute in Britain and one of its primary U.S. outposts, Michigan University, Ann Arbor.
Tavistock thinktank was created for healing shell shock but soon turned into the premier mass brainwashing institute with a globalist agenda. The precursor to the infamous CIA MK-ULTRA mind control program, Tavistock’s agenda is used to topple governments. Tavistock’s spycologists are the founding fathers of mind control.
Tavistock’s objective is to eventually control entire populations with the use of drugs, electronics and sophisticated mind control techniques, including group dynamics and lockdown propaganda. Research into the use of microwave weapons and their use for mind control began there in the 1950s. Tavistock was behind the creation and direction of the Office of Naval Intelligence (ONI).
The Cryptocracy, through economics and mass mind control is involved in the transformation or "alchemical processing" of mass consciousness by psychological mind manipulation. With the help of these foundations and secret societies, experiments in world shaping continue multimedia and military campaigns. The goal is to seed and control megatrends so the masses live as controlled puppets – wage slaves -- of the ruling elite.
Their “endgame” includes radical population reduction employing a variety of pathogens and other means. Thus, Tavistock wrote the blueprint for germ biowarfare (BW) as well as drug and chemical assaults (CBW). A thinktank for the global shadow government, Tavistock plays a pivotal role in shaping political, social, educational, and economic 'opinions', especially in the United States.
Biowarfare aspects of MK ULTRA and MK NAOMI
There is a vast uncharted history of public policy and ethics, or lack thereof, in medicine in the national-security world. Bioethics doesn't usually include the Defense Department, DARPA, or DIA activities. History and political considerations are seamlessly welded. But many developments have the potential to change civilian life as much or more radically than military practice. In the 21st century, biotechnical enhancements will call into question what it means to be human -- and who will control that. The US began its active biological warfare program in the 1940s. In 1941, it implemented a clandestine program to develop offensive and allegedly defensive bioweapons using controversial testing methods. Fort Detrick was home to the Army Biological Warfare Laboratories from 1943 until 1969, conducting top-secret production of offensive biological weapons. Most research and development is still conducted at Fort Detrick, MD., Los Alamos and Lawrence Livermore labs, Pine Bluff, AR. and Dugway Proving Ground, UT.
A legacy from WWII Japanese Unit 731, modern biowarfare is the brainchild of DoD and CIA. Experimental biowarfare and drug research was conducted under “mind kontrol” programs called MK ULTRA and MK NAOMI. As is often the case, ultrasecret tasks were sent to subcontractors. Crystalline Brucella was an especially useful agent in germ warfare.
“The title page of a US Senate Study, declassified on February 24, 1977, shows that George Merck, of the pharmaceutical company, Merck Sharp & Dohme (which now makes cures for diseases that at one time it created), reported in 1946 to the US Secretary of War that his researchers had managed "for the first time" to "isolate the disease agent in crystalline form."
“They had produced a crystalline bacterial toxin extracted from the Brucella bacterium [which] could be removed in crystalline form and stored, transported and deployed without deteriorating. It could be delivered by other vectors such as insects, aerosol or the food chain (in nature it is delivered within the bacterium). But the factor that is working in the Brucella is the mycoplasma. One salt shaker of the pure disease agent in a crystalline form could sicken the entire population of Canada. It is absolutely deadly, not so much in terms of killing the body but disabling it.
“Because the crystalline disease agent goes into solution in the blood, ordinary blood and tissue tests will not reveal its presence. The mycoplasma will only crystallise at 8.1 pH, and the blood has a pH of 7.4 pH. So the doctor thinks your complaint is "all in your head". (Scott, 2002)
Anonymous Testimony
Our “Deep Throat” microbiologist can connect many dots from personal experience in this chain of events: “My first job in DC was a front researching the paranormal, esoterics and alternative healing. The previously mention mycoplasma program was part of MK Ultra.”
The key brucella experts in the WW II era later went to Michigan State University Dept. of Microbiology and Public Health. The top US Government’s brucellosis expert from the late 1930's thru the 1970's worked in the graduate program. That Department at Michigan State supervised the Michigan Dept. of Health with the anthrax vaccine, which was contaminated with mycoplasma, the probable cause of severe Gulf War Syndrome.
Artificial mycoplasma were developed from the brucella bacteria. In fact the m.fermantans genome is an exact copy of part of the Brucella. The anthrax vaccine used in the Gulf War was produced by the Michigan Dept. of Health under the supervision of the Dept. of Public Health at Michigan State University. The first weaponized mycoplasma were made at a “Tavistock Institute West” clone.
Also, the media did a cover-up. Peter Jennings at ABC News played the lead role with an infomercial for CIPRO before the anthrax letters were mailed. He continued to hype CIPRO throughout the Anthrax crisis even though there are cheaper and better drugs available, including penicillin V. One of the toxic anthrax letters was sent to Senator Leahy's office. His staff then covered up the investigation of Peter Jennings. So there is your media, bureaucracy and academia in action.
The US Senate Judiciary Commitee investigated this. then headed by Senator Leahy. His staff covered it up. The media refuses to cover the story. Meanwhile the FBI and New York Times persisted in trying to frame Dr. Hatfill.
“Toxic vaccine is the almost certain cause of Gulf War Syndrome which has killed countless veterans and caregivers. The weaponized mycoplasma spread through the Gulf. It came back with vets to the US. It is the specific cause of Osama bin-Laden's rise to power thru his support by Saudi Arabia. Add this to the anthrax story and you have a very big story!
“I believe Gulf War Syndrome was caused by mycoplasma contamination of the expired anthrax vaccine. Spread of artificial mycoplasma also has caused something like Gulf War Syndrome in Iraq, Kuwait, Jordan and northern Saudi Arabia approx 15% of the population is involved. That is arguably the excuse for Osama bin Laden to launch his terrorist war!
“I reject Depleted Uranium as one of the main sources of Gulf War Syndrome. “The Brucellosis Triangle" has been covered in NEXUS Magazine. Dirty anthrax vaccine is the probable cause of severe Gulf War Syndrome.
“There are several causes for Gulf War Syndrome. I have interviewed the persecuted and maligned Dr. Garth Nicolson, the most published microbiologist worldwide. His group has treated Gulf War soldiers with drugs which are effective against mycoplasma infections. The mycoplasma found in Gulf War veterans sometimes has gp 120 protein attachments.
“Dr. Nicolson’s story is compelling including attempts by biowar terrorist companies on the life of his staff and FBI guards. He was fired from M.D. Anderson Cancer Hospital in Texas. His group is now based in Irvine, California. He claims that 15% to 20% of the population in Iraq, southern Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and Jordan have Gulf War syndrome.
“There are very strange neoplasms in Gulf War III soldiers. As the article states, the disability rate for Gulf War II is incredible. NEXUS had an article on ‘The Brucellosis Triangle’ just before 9/11. It deals with the origins of the 90 plus species of mycoplasma. During WW II the Brucella bacteria was modified and a crystalized toxin was produced (artificial mycoplasma). The gene sequence of mycoplasma fermentans is an exact copy of part of the Brucella genome.
“These mycoplasma were tested worldwide after WW II causing a number of neurogenic illnesses including Parkinson's Disease, MS, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, etc The Gulf War Anthrax vaccine was produced by the Michigan Dept. of Health in Lansing under the supervision of the Dept. at MSU. Gulf War Syndrome is associated very closely with that vaccine which was contaminated with mycoplasma.
“Many claim it, but what evidence do you have depleted uranium (DU) is the actual cause of the bizarre cancers, etc. seen in Gulf War III? The only proven effect of depleted uranium is kidney damage. How do you know the DU story isn't part of the cover-up for the mycoplasma fermentans story? "
NSA “Mr. Spock” Spook Confirms
Any good story needs secondary confirmation and we have it, -- again anonymous -- retired from NSA. “Spock” says, “anthrax vaccine is responsible for Gulf War Syndrome. It is based on a mycoplasma contamination with a GP 120 protein attachment. Mycoplasma are artificially made from Brucella starting in WW II.”
“.. [Your source] is right about anthrax vaccine; it was way out of date and full of all kinds of mycoplasma, as are ALL out of date vaccines that were sloppily made in the first place. With means of inactivating the selenocysteine product, glutathione peroxidase an essential enzyme; antibiotic+selenocysteine= mycoplasma out! The immune suppressing bacterial DNA particle (now known as the mycoplasmal species fermentans) was based upon the research of Dr. Robert Huebner and carried forward at the Wistar Institute of Philadelphia among other places.”
“It is delivered by airplane - caused mini-epidemic of walking pneumonia in NW Washington DC, in 1985, which drew my attention. “X” got it, my wife got it - only person not getting it was me because I was breathing selenium fumes all night. I gave samples of air collected pathogen to “X” to head of OMI. April 86. Two months later, Army patented the new (but old) bug so they could make a portable test. Patent upgraded twice, til 1993. Army was not making warbug but securing defense against possible "near-future" warbug; unusually virulent mycoplasma, which is not fermentans incognitus but hominus incognitus-b “
“Contrails --loaded INADVERTANTLY with mycoplasma strain that teams with strep to make flesh eating strep old anthrax vaccine - loaded with mycoplasma. DU- furthur depletes "correct" selenium WHICH WE CANNOT SYNTHESIZE!!
“The Michigan State info on transforming brucella into a mycoplasma in 1930s, 1940s is accurate, in possession of US ARMY classified secret. mycoplasma fermentans is not derived from brucella…mechanism of depleted uranium (chemically like iron) and mycoplasma is to deplete body of selenium and glutathione peroxidase.
“I discovered re-emerged GW mycoplasma all over Washington DC in 1986. “X” was having lunch with MAG associated head of Army medical intelligence once a week at HQ at Walter Reed Hospital. I copied secret Army papers from Michigan State in the 30's 40s' and gave “X” samples of organism. “X” was easily cleared for old secret level docs. “X” took it to OMI and "new" mycoplasma was discovered.”
Quo Vadis?
Biowarfare’s goal is simply the transmission of disease. It is arguably as old as mankind. The first recorded example is the Hittites use of plague infected rams, 3300 years ago. "Hittite plague" raged through the Middle East in the 14th century B.C.
Contamination of water was another common tactic. The ancient Assyrians (whose civilization began around 2400 B.C. in modern Turkey, Iran, Syria and Iraq) poisoned enemy wells with ergot, an LSD-like fungus that grows on wheat, rye and other grains.
Historically, smallpox and anthrax have been used against adversaries. Anthrax infection was known to the Israelites in Egypt who used figs as a rememdy for skin lesions. In the medieval period diseased corpses were catapulted into besieged fortresses.The Mongols did the same with bubonic plague victims.
On Sept. 11, 2001, reports the Washington Post, "there were only five 'biosafety level 4' labs – places equipped to study highly lethal agents such as Ebola that have no human vaccine or treatment – a Government Accountability Office report stated last fall. Fifteen are in operation or under construction now, according to the report. There are hundreds more biosafety level 3 labs, which handle agents such as Bacillus anthracis, which does have a human vaccine."
The few hundred people at work in the U.S. bio-defense program before 9/11 have swelled to perhaps 14,000 scientists who have "clearances to work with 'select biological agents' such as Bacillus anthracis – many of them civilians working at private universities" where, according to experts, "security regulations are remarkably lax."
And don't forget the Army's own billion-dollar plan to "build a larger laboratory complex as part of a proposed interagency biodefense campus at Fort Detrick." We're talking about the place where, as Ivins' crew was evidently nicknamed, "Team Anthrax" worked and whose labs are reputedly "renowned for losing anthrax." In these same years, according to the New York Times, "almost $50 billion in federal money has been spent to build new laboratories, develop vaccines and stockpile drugs." (Engelhardt)
Great ILLusion
Where are we going with today’s black ops germ warfare? Lab space for such work has increased 10-fold since 2001. Thousands of scientists are now working with bioweapons agents, many for the first time. More than 14,000 scientists have been approved to work with so-called select agents like anthrax that usually pose little threat to public health unless they are used as bioweapons. Genetically engineered constructs are escaping into the environment, speeding up recombination and jumping species barriers. This is the major route to creating new diseases. With this routine release, we don't need terrorists to create new epidemics. Bioweapon and GM control must come together. By default or design it is still bioterrorism.
No good can come of it. Yet “hope” is a whore that should be strangled because it offers only delusion for consolation. Our only protection is good food, water and healthy immune systems. The pretzel twist is that those are prime targets in the war that never ends. You are in the bullseye. Germ warfare is GOD’s timebomb – Gold, Oil, & Drugs. Endnotes REFERENCES

"an infectious organism manufactured in the US". Oddly enough, this is one of the enduring aspects of the "Octopus" story involving engineered bio-organisms supplied to Iraq by the Wackenhut Corporation, the giant US private-sector security company whose board of directors reads like a roll call of military and intelligence alumni. It is an allegation supported by US investigative journalist Carol Marshall in her manuscript, "The Last Circle". Marshall has spent years investigating the allegations of Michael Riconosciuto-a former CIA scientific whiz-kid. Riconosciuto claimed that while working for the Wackenhut Corporation at its Cabazon Indian Reservation facility he developed advanced and genetically altered biological warfare agents. One such agent, he alleged, was a "race-specific" organism, genetically engineered to attack certain races or groups. Unleashed it could kill or render ill all those of a particular ethnic group, leaving others entirely unharmed.

The pathogenic Mycoplasma used to be very innocuous, but biological warfare research conducted between 1942 and the present time has resulted in the creation of more deadly and infectious forms of Mycoplasma. Researchers extracted this mycoplasma from the Brucella bacterium and actually reduced the disease to a crystalline form. They "weaponised" it and tested it on an unsuspecting public in North America. Dr Maurice Hilleman, chief virologist for the pharmaceutical company Merck Sharp & Dohme, stated that this disease agent is now carried by everybody in North America and possibly most people throughout the world.

By 1966, Wackenhut could confidently state that it had secret files on 4 million Americans. Michael Riconosciuto is the mysterious convicted drug dealer who became a government informer and then became a Wackenhut employee, and who is now back in jail [see "Badlands," April 19921 He told SPY that during the early 1980s he was "working for Wackenhut to adapt Inslaw's Promis." Promis is the computer program allegedly stolen by Reagan-administration officials from Inslaw, a software company, and resold for private gain. Although Wackenhut denies any involvement with improper appropriation of software, Riconosciuto said in an interview with SPY that he "met with George Wackenhut and John Ammarell [a Wackenhut board member and consultant to George Wackenhut] in Las Vegas." Riconosciuto went on to say that accompanying him was Dr. John Philip Nichols, the former CIA agent and Wackenhut business partner who was running the shadowy activities on the Cabazon Indian reservation in the California desert. Riconoscinto says that during their Vegas evening together, George Wackenhut ask how his work on the software was coming along. Such comments from a twice-convicted felon would normally be dismissed out of hand. But in an interview with SPY Wackenhut's John Ammarell confided that such a meeting did indeed take place in Las Vegas. "I don't remember any specific conversations," Ammarell said, "but I think we were there to discuss the sale of George's yacht, the Top Secret. I think Nichols said he had a potential buyer." So: The wealthy president of a large security company with CIA ties and one of his board members met with a drug dealer electronics expert and a spook turned arms supplier—and all they discuss is the sale of a boat?
