1997: Secretary of Defense Reveals Earthquake Weapons Threat

[Minstrel Boy]

Seriously.

In 1997 William Cohen, then-Secretary of Defense, spoke of countries "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."

It can be found on the US Department of Defense website:

http://www.defenselink.mil/news/Apr1997/t042897_t0428coh.html

My thought: if Cohen was serious, then we can assume the US is a leader in the field.

And here's a curiosity: HAARP came online just after the raising of the terror alert, just before the California quake. (http://www.cyberspaceorbit.com/haarpidl.htm) There's much speculation about HAARP's purposes. The wildest perhaps is manipulation of the weather, including triggering seismic events.

The pertinent section (the B'nai Brith reference regards recent hoax anthrax mailings it received):

Q: Let me ask you specifically about last week's scare here in Washington, and what we might have learned from how prepared we are to deal with that (inaudible), at B'nai Brith.

A: Well, it points out the nature of the threat. It turned out to be a false threat under the circumstances. But as we've learned in the intelligence community, we had something called -- and we have James Woolsey here to perhaps even address this question about phantom moles. The mere fear that there is a mole within an agency can set off a chain reaction and a hunt for that particular mole which can paralyze the agency for weeks and months and years even, in a search. The same thing is true about just the false scare of a threat of using some kind of a chemical weapon or a biological one. There are some reports, for example, that some countries have been trying to construct something like an Ebola Virus, and that would be a very dangerous phenomenon, to say the least. Alvin Toeffler has written about this in terms of some scientists in their laboratories trying to devise certain types of pathogens that would be ethnic specific so that they could just eliminate certain ethnic groups and races; and others are designing some sort of engineering, some sort of insects that can destroy specific crops. 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.

1. Why WHAT is so important?

Intensify WHICH efforts?

Be specific.

11. Its a Machine that can cause directed earthquakes

You know Real Doctor Evil stuff.

The bill was sent back and revised because of National Security

3. There are some crazy people with much power and no oversight.

To merely repeat some of their words is enough to smear one as a delusional paranoid.

Kucinich has the courage it takes to speak hard truths.

[jjmalonejr]

6. Who are the crazy people you are talking about?

Repeat some of their words. I promise, I won't smear you as a delusion paranoid.

[wanderingbear]

20. George Bush and Friends who else?

[proud patriot]

4. Have you guys seen the movie "the Core"?

It was all about this .

[ElsewheresDaughter]

5. nope i haven't seen it, but, i will most deffinetly see it now...thanks

[Emperor_Norton_II]

8. I wasn't aware that "The Core" was a docudrama.

Or that it was scientifically acuurate. Well, I suppose in that a) the Earth exists and b) it has a magnetic field.

16. Don't say that with a straight face. You'll be believed.

-eom-

[wanderingbear]

17. Good, Because its true..

[Emperor_Norton_II]

18. Excuse me, I feel a need to scream.

AAAAAAAAA! GOD! DAMMIT!

Lean over here so I can smack the paranoid out of you.

[wanderingbear]

19. If youve seen what Ive seen youd be paranoid too..

Im not called Wandering Bear for no reason. I wonder and where I wander I often find things that most people miss.

[Emperor_Norton_II]

21. Okay. So.

You're telling me that "The Core" is a true telling of Republican plans?

[wanderingbear]

22. With some embelishment for the entertanment factor..Yes

[Emperor_Norton_II]

24. ... Words fail me.

I don't suppose The Philidelphia Experiment was accurate within reason as well, was it?

[wanderingbear]

27. As a matter of fact yes,The Philidelphia is still sitting

in the Pugent sound in dry dock.. Its apart of the Navel Museum now.
A lot of movies are made from RL events.

[plaguepuppy]

30. Actually it was the USS Eldridge DE 173

...that was supposedly involved in the Philly experiment

[diamond14]

32. thank goodness that ....'words fail me'....such a relief....whew !

The mushroom cloud formed by the "Mike" test of an experimental thermonuclear device rises above Enewetak Atoll, November 1, 1952. The "Mike" device used liquid deuterium and required extensive cryogenic cooling equipment. It weighed 164,000 pounds (74,546 kilograms) and had a yield of 10.4 megatons



The above photograph shows five of forty named islands comprising Enewetak Atoll before the "Mike" test (the gray areas surrounding the islands are coral reefs). The test completely vaporized the island of Elugelab as well as portions of Sanil and Teiter (below), leaving a crater 164 feet (50 meters) deep and 1.2 miles (1.9 kilometers) wide.

9. I immediately recognized this as a HAARP simulation.

Pretty good for the disaster movie genre. Not much is publicly disclosed about HAARP (High Altitude Auroral Research Project). The classified portions are up for much speculation as to the uses, but I have a bad feeling about them. Another going up in Greenland soon IIRC. :scared:

7. eco-terrorism is a serious problem

...as we all know it's quite easy to start a forest fire. It's also easy to start a dangerous avalanche or mudslide. Most areas are remote and secluded, fires etc. can easily spread.

In the D.C. area there is a serial arsonist who has hit 20 or so homes by now... maybe more. It hasn't been reported very much in the national news, but this arsonist is proving how easy it is to start fires.

[wanderingbear]

23. And your pinning this on us why?

[maggrwaggr]

10. So .... Rove did cause the earthquake?? :)

:)

Gee, an earthquake in California. How surprising.

The Kucinich bill is scary as hell, though. That kind of stuff'll keep you up nights.

Gotta love Kucinich.

[goforit]

28. Kucinich is quite a mighty little "Seabiscuit"/ May he win every race!!!

Never stop!!!

[wanderingbear]

12. This was published in Popular science around 15 years ago.

[wanderingbear]

14. Calling Dr. George W Evil..Your mini me is ready.

[evil_orange_cat]

15. he wants ONE HUNDRED BILLION DOLLARS!

or sharks with lasers will come to kick your ass ;)

[DonP]

25. those are "Sharks with frickin laser beams on their heads"

[54anickel]

26. I've got a dumb question regarding this HAARP stuff......

I've noticed over the last 3 days that I've not seen very many birds around. You know, the ones that hang out in flocks. My bird feeders are not being visited much and the swarms of blackbirds and such just aren't moving around much. No big bunches of geese that are usually on the move from field to field either. Saw a small group of 3 geese today. 3 solitary crows and one bunch of 6 blackbirds hanging out on the phone wires. The weather has been mild, and there are usually many more birds on the move.

Would these new "pulses" that are mentioned that started when the alert went orange effect birds much?
Has anyone else noticed this? (I'm in SE WI)


:tinfoilhat:

[goforit]

29. Very interesting!

I have not seen any crows except one or two in the last year.
We use to have hundreds here.
I originally attributed this to west-nile virus but I am now beginning to wonder.
Hmmmm.......

Now is the world really coming to an end?

What concerns me the most is the volcano in Yellowstone
That is one big puppy that has been long due.

In a madman's hands what kind of damage can be orchestrated?

[54anickel]

33. I've only been paying closer attention for the past 3 days. I just

wondered if anyone else has noticed this as well. I just remember reading in one of the threads here about someone tracking the HAARP pulses saying they've been active since the orange level threat.

Found it curious that the birds have been pretty quiet in that time as well.

[KFC]

31. If you people are so easily frightened

I would suggest you stay in bed.

And by all means, avoid science fiction, James Bond, and Austin Powers (as pointed out above)!
