Tony and Marcia,
Sadly,
well-intentioned and honest pacifists --- good people and
well-intentioned --- can have it rather much backwards, at least in my
own personal view. Their hearts are certainly in the right place, but
not their heads --- again, in my personal view. The foreign decision to
go to asymmetric war, made decades ago on the part of terrorists,
radically fundamentalist Muslims, etc. eliminates any such thing as
peace, a priori, at least
in our lifetimes. It is inflicted upon us, not created and launched by
us.
In asymmetric war, the
great strategic strike is now divided into two phases.
(1)
Phase 1 is the insertion phase, accomplished in
"peacetime" which is now seen as nothing but preparation for all-out war
and destruction of the targeted nation. In Phase I, weapons of mass
destruction and the hostile clandestine teams to set them off and
unleash them, are secretly inserted into the cities and near critical
facilities in the targeted nation(s). This includes whatever WMD can be
had or bought: Nukes, chemical weapons, BW agents, sabotage and
destruction supplies, scalar interferometry weapons, EMP weapons, etc.
(2)
Phase 2 is the operations phase. The order is given at
the time of the controlling nation's own choosing. When the order is
issued, the inserted terrorist teams initiate and begin setting off the
weapons of mass destruction, wreaking great havoc on the targeted
nation. With sufficient preparation during the insertion phase, the
targeted nation is destroyed fairly quickly, with a great many millions
of casualties and total economic collapse. Once in that position, the
targeted nation is then easily finished off.
So "searching for
peace" and "backing peace" after the insertion phase is already
completed and the operations phase has begun, is playing right into the
hands of those who have chosen to engage in and unleash asymmetric war.
You know the rest.
Clandestine nuclear weapons are already in all our major cities and at
truly major, critical facilities. Lunev even tells some of the ways they
were inserted:
"It is surprisingly easy to smuggle nuclear weapons into the United
States. A commonly used method is for a Russian airplane to fly across
the ocean on a typical reconnaissance flight. The planes will be
tracked by U.S. radar, but that's not a problem. When there are no
other aircraft in
visual
range, the Russian airplane will launch a small, high-tech, stealth
transport missile that can slip undetected into remote areas of the
country. The missiles are retrieved by GRU operatives.
Another way to get a weapon into the country is to have an
'oceanographic research' submarine deliver the device—accompanied by GRU
specialists—to a remote section of coastline.
Nuclear devices can also be slipped across the Mexican or
Canadian borders. It is easy to get a bomb to Cuba and from there
transport it to Mexico. Usually the devices are carried by a Russian
intelligence officer or a trusted agent."
[Stanislov Lunev and Ira Winkler, Through the Eyes of
the Enemy: Russia's Highest Ranking Military Defector Reveals Why Russia
Is More Dangerous Than Ever, Regnery, Washington, D.C., 1998.].
Further, international
shipping has long used the standard shipping container system. Only
about 2% or so of the containers are ever even checked anywhere in the
world. So shipment of most anything --- nuclear weapons, drugs, etc.
--- can be gotten in with about 98% reliability, by just disguising the
actual "shipped package" in and among otherwise innocent stuff in a
standard container. The U.S. trucking industry and railway shipping
industry will load up the containers at the U.S. ports and deliver them
to the waiting clandestine terrorists at their intended destination.
When the Soviet
economy failed, resulting in the collapse of the former Soviet Empire,
the Soviets became unable to pay their generals and soldiers for
extended periods of time. Consequently, the generals and troops began
selling their military equipment to the best bidder, in order to
survive. If one had guts and money, one could buy almost anything at
all from the Russian armada of weapons. Two hundred missile warheads
from the Ukraine are "missing", as are nearly 100 "suitcase nukes". As
an example, you could even buy a Russian nuclear submarine complete with
nuclear missiles! Quoting Lunev, p. 17:
"…Ludwig Feinberg, a Russian mobster, purchased a Piranha-class nuclear
submarine from the Russian Naval Base in Kronstadt for $5.5 million.
The submarine was to be disguised as an oceanographic research vessel,
but would, in fact, transport cocaine to ports in North America. To
facilitate his plan, Feinberg signed a Russian admiral to a two-year
contract. Feinberg was arrested in the United States on other charges,
and his submarine deal collapsed."
We have previously
pointed out that a rogue Japanese group, comprised of the Aum Shinrikyo
and Yakuza, leased the earlier scalar interferometer weapons from the
KGB/Russian Mafia at the end of 1989, on site in Russia, and manned
those sites. Look up in the sky above your head these days, and look
for "giant radial clouds" and "twin giant radials" --- like giant
chicken feet tracks in the sky. Your weather is being massively
engineered, and has been since 1976. Since 1990, it has been directly
engineered by the Japanese Yakuza and Aum Shinrikyo teams on site in
Russia, etc. These are the type of weapons that Secretary of Defense
William Cohen publicly confirmed in 1997, when he stated:
"Others are engaging even in an eco-type of terrorism whereby they can
alter the climate, set off earthquakes, volcanoes remotely through the
use of electromagnetic waves… So there are plenty of ingenious minds out
there that are at work finding ways in which they can wreak terror upon
other nations…It's real, and that's the reason why we have to intensify
our efforts, and that's why this is so important."
[Secretary of Defense William Cohen at an April 1997 counterterrorism
conference sponsored by former Senator Sam Nunn. Quoted from DoD News
Briefing, Secretary of Defense William S. Cohen, Q&A at the Conference
on Terrorism, Weapons of Mass Destruction, and U.S. Strategy, University
of Georgia, Athens, Apr. 28, 1997].
Russia (the KGB, even
under its new name) has many nuclear weapons in our cities here in the
U.S., and even Al Qaeda probably has a few. The necessary teams to
detonate them on command are already in here and just waiting the order
to proceed. BW agents (such as smallpox and anthrax) are in here in
quantity, along with the necessary teams. As an example, unleashing
smallpox alone, in a single major city anywhere on Earth, will
eventually kill some 2 billion or so --- nearly one third the human
population. Here is a statement on that, by Garrett:
If
the smallpox virus were released today, the majority of the world's
population would be defenseless, and given the virus' 30 percent kill
rate, nearly two billion people would die."
[Laurie Garrett, "The
Nightmare of Bioterrorism," Foreign Affairs, 80(1), Jan./Feb.
2001, p. 76-89. I quote from p. 77.]
Garrett further spells
it out:
"The world is … completely vulnerable to a smallpox attack. The last
time a mass emergency vaccination took place in the United States was
1947, when a traveler from Mexico spread smallpox to New York City.
Vaccines were then readily available, and 6.35 million New Yorkers were
immunized in less than four weeks. In 1961, a similar vaccination
campaign was administered following a smallpox outbreak in England: 5.5
million people were immunized in a month's time. A decade later,
smallpox cases in Yugoslavia prompted the rapid vaccination of 20
million people in that country. Were a smallpox crisis to emerge
today, none of these efforts could be repeated."
[Laurie Garrett, "The Nightmare of Bioterrorism," Foreign Affairs,
80(1), Jan./Feb. 2001, p. 76-89.] Quote is from p. 78. The reader will
note that the administration is trying mightily to increase the
availability of smallpox vaccine, and some vaccination is underway in
Connecticut for health workers.
Saddam Hussein's
strategy is that, once the U.S./U.N. attack begins or is imminent, he
will unleash smallpox (and some other things) in Israel, some fired in
his Scud missiles. This will immediately propel Israel into the war,
converting it from a U.S./Iraq war into a Muslim Holy Jihad against the
Great Satan (Israel and the U.S.). This will bring in a great number of
otherwise sidelined Arab nations, and friendly Arab nations such as
Saudi Arabia, etc. will have open insurrection going in the streets from
hordes of militant Muslims. Our bases in friendly Arab nations will
suddenly be in great danger, and the friendly Arab country allowing
those bases will have its own revolution occurring in the streets. It
will also cause other previously uncommitted Moslem nations to commit
their own inserted terrorist teams and WMD inside the U.S., increasing
the damage potential far beyond what Iraq can do alone.
The first phase of
World War III has been completed some time ago. The second phase began
in stumbling fashion with 9/11 attacks on the twin towers, pentagon, and
an intended attack on the White House. We will be in the second phase
for the rest of our lives.
This is why, shortly
after 9/11, Vice President Cheney sadly stated:
“The war on terrorism will not be over in our lifetime. It is different
than the Gulf War was in the sense that it may never end. At
least not in our lifetime. The way I think of it is, it’s a new
normalcy.”
[Vice
President Dick Cheney, October 21, 2001].
With the
First Phase of WW III already completed, there is no reasonable choice
remaining but to try go root out as much as possible of the infiltrated
WMDs and teams, and to go after all the bases and funding and backing
and control of the terrorist teams that are preparing to unleash these
WMD inside our nation, in wholesale fashion.
A single
professional anthrax spray attack on one of our major cities, will
result in from one to three million casualties, by official study
estimate. E.g., quoting Betts:
A
1993 study by the Office of Technology Assessment concluded that a
single airplane delivering 100 kilograms of anthrax spores – a dormant
phase of a bacillus that multiplies rapidly in the body, producing
toxins and rapid hemorrhaging – by aerosol on a clear, calm night over
the Washington, D.C., area could kill between one million and three
million people, 300 times as many fatalities as if the plane had
delivered sarin gas in amounts ten times larger.
[Richard K. Betts, “The New Threat of Mass Destruction,” Foreign
Affairs, 77(1). Jan./Feb. 1998, p. 32. The study referenced is:
U.S. Congress, Office of Technology Assessment, Proliferation of
Weapons of Mass Destruction: Assessing the Risks, Government
Printing Office, Washington, 1993, p. 54.]
Again,
Garrett summarizes some fierce problems with anthrax et al. (p. 78):
"For other diseases preventable by vaccine, such as anthrax, the lag
time between inoculation and the development of powerful antibodies
could be far longer—up to a year, even with boosters. And of course,
immunization efforts would be useless against vaccine-resistant
pathogens, such as those created by Soviet scientists working on anthrax
weapons. Furthermore, a determined bioterrorist could simply try a
succession of microbial weapons—or use a cocktail at the outset—defying
even the best-organized vaccination programs."
To press
for the normal "peace" and "negotiation" as the means of solution, in
the present world situation with Phase I of World War III already a
fait accompli, is like
cattle in the slaughterhouse before the sledgehammers start to fall,
trying to establish "peace" and "negotiation" with the butchers already
holding the hammers.
Wish it
were not that way, but unfortunately it is. At any rate, it appears
that war is inevitable, and will either erupt within a few weeks or
perhaps a few months. Then we shall see what happens, whether we like
it or not.
Best
wishes,
Tom |
