CHEMTRAILS --

Covert Climate Control?

 

Under the banner of some top-secret scientific agenda, the US military

continues to weave chemical-laden contrails in the skies, causing

health problems for unprotected people on the ground.

For nearly three years, chemtrail observers have hoped an official

would step forward to explain the origin and purpose of broad white

plumes criss-crossing the skies above a dozen allied nations. Their

wait is over...

 

 

 

It was nearly noon when S.T. Brendt awoke and entered the kitchen of

her country home in Parsonsfield, Maine. As she poured her first cup

of coffee, the late night reporter for WMWV Radio could not have

guessed that her life was minutes away from drastic change. Her

partner Lou Aubuchont was already up, puzzling over what he had seen

in the sky a half-hour before. The fat puffy plumes arching up over

the horizon were unlike any contrail he had ever seen, even during his

hitch in the Navy.

 

Like breath exhaled on a winter's day, the contrails he was used to

seeing would flare briefly in the stratosphere as hot moist engine

exhaust flash-freezes into a stream of ice-crystals. These pencil-thin

condensation trails are pretty to watch but short-lived, subliming

into invisibility as exhaust gases cool quickly to the surrounding air

temperature.

 

But in late 1997, Aubuchont started observing thicker 'trails

extending from horizon to horizon. Hanging in the sky long after their

creators had flown from view, these expanding white ribbons would

invariably be interwoven by more thick lines left by unmarked jets,

Air Force white or silver in colour.

 

On this March 12th morning in 2001, Lou did not mention his sighting

as S.T. indulged in caffeine. Sipping gratefully, she glanced out the

window. It looked like another gorgeous, cloudless day. But not quite.

Brendt baulked at several chalk marks scrawled across the crystalline

blue sky. " Contrails or chemtrails? " she jokingly remarked. Lou got up

and looked. What kind of clouds run exactly side by side in a straight

line? he wondered. It's just too perfect to happen naturally. When he

said he wasn't sure, S.T. stopped smiling and went outside.

 

Looking up towards the southeast over West Pond, she spotted the first

jet. A second jet was laying billowing white banners to the north.

Both aircraft appeared to be at over 30,000 feet. Turning her gaze due

west, Brendt saw two more lines extending over the horizon. She called

Lou. Within 45 minutes the couple counted 30 jets. This isn't right,

S.T. thought. We just don't have that kind of air traffic here. While

Lou kept counting, she went inside and started calling airports. One

official she reached was guarded but friendly. He had relatives in

West Pond.

 

The Air Traffic Control manager told Brendt her sighting was

" unusual " . His radars showed nine commercial jets during the same

45-minute span. From her location, he said, she should have been able

to see one plane.

 

And the other twenty-nine? The FAA official confided off the record

that he had been ordered " by higher civil authority " to re-route

inbound European airliners away from a " military exercise " in the

area. " Of course, they wouldn't give me any of the particulars and I

don't ask, " he explained. " I just do my job. "

 

Excited and puzzled by this information, S.T. and Lou got into their

car and headed down Route 160. Looking in any direction they could see

five or six jets flying at over 30,000 feet. Never in the dozen years

they'd lived in rural Maine had they seen so much aerial activity.

 

A former US Navy Intelligence courier, Aubuchont was used to

large-scale military exercises. But he told S.T. he had never seen

anything this big. " It looked like an invasion, " he later recounted.

 

Another driver almost went off the road as he leaned over his

dashboard trying to look up. As they passed, he acknowledged them with

a nod.

 

As far as they could see stretched line after line. Two giant grids

were especially blatant. Instead of dissipating like normal contrails,

these sky trails grew wider and wider and began to merge. Looking

towards the Sun, Aubuchont saw what appeared like " an oil and water

mixture " reflecting a prismatic band of colours. He couldn't call it a

rainbow. Rainbows aren't sinister.

 

As Lou and S.T. completed their errands, the jets kept them company,

leaving lines and even circles that resembled smoke rings. Even living

near Kennedy, LaGuardia and Newark jetports, Aubuchont had never seen

so many big jets performing identical manoeuvres in the same sky. When

they returned to Parsonsfield around four, the lines were starting to

merge into a dingy haze.

 

Richard Dean called back. After receiving S.T.'s message, the

assistant WMWV news director had gone outside with other news staff

and counted 370 lines in skies usually devoid of aerial activity.

 

Brendt put in another call to the FAA official. He had never heard of

chemtrails. In their first face-to-face interview, the chain-smoking

controller responsible for air traffic over the northeastern seaboard

repeated his earlier statements on tape. Similar military activities

were ongoing in other regions, he added. On his 'scopes he could track

the tankers flying north into Canadian airspace.

 

Speaking before witnesses at WMWV on condition of strict anonymity,

our " Deep Sky " source answered a series of yes/no questions I helped

Brendt prepare when she contacted me.

 

After nearly three years on this case, I wanted to corroborate

extremely high levels of aluminum [aluminium] powder found in samples

of rainwater falling through thick sky plumes over Espanola, Ontario,

in the spring of 1998.

 

The Espanola lab tests were conducted after residents began

complaining to the provincial environment ministry. Severe headaches,

chronic joint pain, dizziness, sudden extreme fatigue, acute asthma

attacks and feverless " flu-like " symptoms over a 50-square-mile area

coincided with what they termed " months of 'spraying' " by

photo-identified US Air Force tanker planes.

 

The USAF denied the intrusions. But former Ontario Provincial Police

Officer and Supreme Court expert witness Ted Simola reported lingering

Xs and numerous white trails, some of which " just ended " as if they

had been shut off but remained in the sky.

 

Another Espanola resident told me that mental confusion and short-term

memory loss were so prevalent that forgetting where their cars were

parked had become " a standing joke " in the tiny town.

 

On November 18, 1998, the people of Espanola petitioned Parliament.

Addressing the Canadian government on their behalf, defence critic

Gordon Earle explained:

 

" Over 500 residents of the Espanola area have signed a petition

raising concern over possible government involvement in what appears

to be aircraft emitting visible aerosols. They have found high traces

of aluminum and quartz in particulate and rainwater samples.

 

" These concerns combined with associated respiratory ailments have led

these Canadians to take action and seek clear answers from this

government. The petitioners call upon Parliament to repeal any law

that would permit the dispersal of military chaff or of any

cloud-seeding substance whatsoever by domestic or foreign military

aircraft without the informed consent of the citizens of Canada thus

affected. "

 

The Ministry of Defence eventually replied: " It's not us. "

 

Which was true. While the US Air Force counts 650 four-engine KC-135

Stratotankers and 50 KC-10 Extenders in its active inventory, Canadian

Forces do not fly armadas of tankers. But they do operate the biggest

radar installation in Canada at CFB Comox on Vancouver Island, easily

capable of tracking the American formations coming up from the south.

 

" Was the classified operation a radar experiment? " we asked Deep Sky.

 

" That wasn't what I was told. "

 

Were ATC radars " enhanced or degraded " , we wanted to know. The barium

spread in exercises conducted out of Wright-Patterson Air Force Base

acts as an electrolyte, enhancing conductivity of radar and radio

waves. " Wright Pat " has also long been deeply engaged in HAARP's

electromagnetic warfare program.

A SKY SHIELD TO COMBAT GLOBAL WARMING?

 

The puzzle pieces fell into place with Deep Sky's revelation that ATC

radars were being " degraded " by tanker-released particles showing up

as a " haze " on their screens. This radar characteristic matched the

high concentrations of aluminum powder found along with a

preponderance of quartz particles in Espanola's chemtrail-contaminated

rainwater.

 

The tankers' aluminum powder emissions also matched the Welsbach

patent. Issued in 1994 to the Hughes aerospace giant " for Reduction of

Global Warming " , the sky shield blueprint calls for dispensing

microscopic particles of aluminum oxide and other reflective materials

into the upper atmosphere to reflect one or two per cent of incoming

sunlight. Computer simulations by Ken Caldeira at Lawrence Livermore

National Laboratory calculated that this would be enough to stop

warming over 85 per cent of the planet, despite an anticipated

doubling of carbon in the atmosphere within the next 50 years.

 

Lawrence Livermore priced the aerial spray program at US$1 billion

dollars a year--a cheap fix to maintain massive petroleum profits in

the face of Kyoto's internationally agreed carbon cutbacks.

 

Livermore's founder, Edward Teller, lobbied hard for another chance to

play with planetary processes. At the 1998 International Seminar on

Planetary Emergencies, the Father of the H-bomb presented his Next Big

Idea. Having earlier pressed for detonating nuclear bombs to carve new

harbours out of American coastlines, Teller now called for reflective

chemicals to be spread like mirror-shades over the Earth. Or at least

over allies who could agree in secret for this unprecedented

geoengineering experiment to be carried out over their unsuspecting

constituents.

 

In a draft report leaked to me soon after it appeared for peer review

in May 2000, an expert panel chosen among 3,000 atmospheric scientists

looked at Caldeira's computer simulations and agreed that Teller's

scheme might work. But the IPCC warned against unpredictable upsets of

the atmosphere, as well as against angry populaces reacting to " the

associated whitening of the visual appearance of the sky " .

 

Caldeira was so concerned he went public, warning that deflecting

sunlight would further cool the stratosphere, concentrating icy clouds

of ozone-gobbling CFCs that could destroy Earth's solar radiation shield.

 

Was the sky shield experiment already underway? Deep Sky hinted that

it was.

 

Were the tankers involved in weather modification? Our FAA source

hesitated before responding. " That approximates what I was told. "

 

For the third interview we rephrased our key question. Were the

tankers repeatedly observed on ATC radars involved in climate

modification? I caught my breath as Deep Sky confirmed that this is

what he was told was the object of the missions.

 

Here at last was our " smoking nuke " admission. After years of

" airliner " double-speak, we could now corroborate Deep Sky's report of

military aircraft dispensing reflective materials with an earlier

report by a Canadian aviation official.

 

On December 8, 2000, Terry Stewart, the Manager for Planning and

Environment at the Victoria International Airport, had broken this

story wide open when he responded to a caller's complaint the previous

day of Xs, circles and grids being woven over the British Columbia

capitol. Leaving a message on an answering machine tape, later heard

by more than 15 million radio listeners, the public servant explained:

" It's a military exercise, US and Canadian Air Force exercise that's

going on. They wouldn't give me any specifics on it. "

 

Stewart added that he found the incident--one of hundreds reported

over Canada's west coast since the fall of 1998-- " very odd " .

 

Tasked with defending Canadian airspace in the region, CFB Comox chose

instead to defend a classified collaboration. " No military operation

is taking place, " the base information officer tersely told me when I

called for details. But Stewart later told the Vancouver Courier that

his information had come directly from CFB Comox.

CONTRAILS vs CHEMTRAILS

 

Across the strait from the island air base, a concerned mother of

three children was noticing that people in Gibsons were coming down

with ailments that coincided with constant chemtrail activity. Suzanne

Smart's husband contracted asthma; their children were always

sniffling and coughing. Smart ended up in the small coastal town's

Emergency unit with a sore throat, " super-stiff " neck, pounding

headache and ears " ringing like crazy " . Even her teeth hurt.

 

It was all very nerve-wracking. Smart contacted a Transport Canada

investigator who had noticed the jet trails too and was convinced it

was normal contrail activity. Why he took special notice of normal

contrails was not explained. But the TC official told Smart he hoped

the Canadian equivalent of the FAA would be notified of any military

exercises taking place.

 

On June 17, 2001, after photographing massive plumes over Gibsons,

Smart checked with aviation authorities and found that no airline

flight plans had been filed for that airspace at that time. Official

weather data showed that when her photos of multiple white plumes were

taken, the 30 per cent humidity at 30,000 and 35,000 feet was less

than half that needed for contrails to form.

 

As NOAA meteorologist Thomas Schlatter explains, for even short-lived

condensation trails to form, " we're talking temperatures lower than

about minus 76 degrees Fahrenheit, and humidity at jet altitudes of 70

per cent or more " .

 

Smart sent her findings to Transport Canada with a request for an

explanation of how contrails could form when they couldn't. " It is my

understanding, " she wrote, " that the only way to form jet trails at

yesterday's low humidity is to introduce very fine particulates into

the atmosphere. "

 

Smart's homework hit like hardball. According to the National Center

for Atmospheric Research in Boulder, Colorado, the only way to form

artificial clouds in warm dry air is to introduce enough particulates

into the atmosphere to attract and accrete all available moisture into

visible vapour. If repeated often enough, the resulting rainless haze

can lead to drought.

 

Following standard procedure to ignore all evidence contradicting the

official line, Transport Canada's Randy Phillips responded by advising

Smart to check out the " urban legends " website ridiculing chemtrails.

 

Col. Walter Washbaugh, Chief of the Congressional Inquiry Division for

the Secretary of the Air Force in Washington, DC, also calls

chemtrails " a hoax " . In an April 20, 2001, letter to a US senator,

Washbaugh blamed the increased number of contrails on " significant

civil aviation growth in the past decade " .

 

He was right. A National Science Foundation study has found that, in

certain heavy traffic corridors, artificial cloud cover has increased

by as much as 20 per cent since the jet age took off. Dr Patrick

Minnis, a CERES atmospheric researcher and ardent chemtrails critic at

NASA's Langley Research Center, reports that cirrus cloud cover over

the United States is up five per cent overall because particulates in

engine exhaust are acting as cloud-forming nuclei. As the number of

flights currently exceeds 15 million annually worldwide, the NSF, NASA

and EPA predict artificial clouds will intensify as air travel

continues climbing sharply.

 

What about chemtrails? Colonel Washbaugh ascribed widely reported grid

patterns to overlapping aircraft flying north-south, east-west

airways. The only thing wrong with this explanation, an air traffic

controller told me in Texas, is that US airways do not run north-south.

 

The biggest laugh came when the colonel told the senator: " The Air

Force is not conducting any weather modification and has no plans to

do so in the future. "

 

In fact, attempts to steer hurricanes by spraying heat-robbing

chemicals in their paths began in the 1950s. The recipe for creating

" cirrus shields " was outlined in an unusually arrogant US Air Force

study. Subtitled " Owning the Weather by 2025 " , the 1996 report

explained how " weather force specialists " were dispersing chemicals

behind high-flying tanker aircraft in a process the air force calls

" aerial obscuration " .

 

Official denials reached new altitudes of absurdity when another

colonel claimed: " The US Air Force does not conduct spraying

operations over populated areas. " USAF spokeswoman Margaret Gidding

told a Spokane newspaper: " The Air Force doesn't do anything that

emits anything other than a normal contrail, which is vapor. "

 

So were their replies. Apparently Anderson and Gidding had forgotten

how US Air Force spray planes crippled a country and a culture by

dispensing over Vietnam thousands of tons of " Agent Orange " defoliants

containing dioxin toxins as hazardous as plutonium.

SEEING IS BELIEVING?

 

In the end, it has proved impossible to continue skywriting giant

billboards advertising government duplicity, while insisting they are

not there. By the summer of 2001, the controversy entered a new phase.

Pictures of contrails were being distributed to newspapers by the

Associated Press, and " chemtrails " could be overheard in coffee shop

conversations across an entire continent.

 

When it comes to chemtrails, seeing is disbelieving official

disinformation. As public awareness grows, people like war veteran

David Oglesby are looking up. The 11 fat plumes fanning out over his

Coarsegold, California, home did it for Oglesby last June.

 

" The trails formed a grid pattern, " he told WorldNetDaily News. " Some

stretched from horizon to horizon. Some began abruptly, and others

ended abruptly. They hung in the air for an extended period of time

and gradually widened into wispy clouds resembling spider webs. "

 

A retired US Air Force radar tech named Shimera called a colonel

responsible for all military operations in central California. " What

would you say if I said there are three aircraft up there right now? "

Shimera asked. " Are they there? "

 

" No, " the colonel replied. " They are not there. "

 

The Houston study is not so easily dismissed. Mark Steadham was

looking for contrails when he started observing the skies over this

busy Texas hub last winter. Using FAA tracking software called Flight

Explorer to identify each aircraft, Steadham clocked contrails

trailing from Boeing, McDonnell-Douglas and Airbus airliners. All but

two of these condensation trails sublimed into invisibility within

five to 20 seconds; the only exceptions persisted for two and 25 minutes.

 

Flight Explorer does not show altitudes for military jets, but,

according to the FAA, tankers and transports usually transit

continental airspace at around 30,000 feet to ensure safe separation

from airliners flying between 35,000 and 39,000 feet. Military

" heavies " flying below 30,000 feet should not leave contrails at all.

Major-General Gregory Barlow confirms that Air Force tankers do not

perform refuelling missions at contrail-forming altitudes.

 

But Steadham found just the opposite in his study. While observing air

traffic for 63 days, the Houston skywatcher found that thick white

plumes laid by similar-sized military aircraft--at the same time, in

the same airspace as 20-second airliner contrails--lingered for four

to eight hours.

GLOBAL CHEMTRAIL REPORTS

 

Sightings of oddly lingering plumes sometimes resembling rocket trails

are not confined to North American skies.

 

While on leave in Italy in the summer of 1999, the US Navy's Kitty

Chastain sat on her hotel balcony and watched aerial grids being laid

all day just offshore over the Bay of Naples. " People were coughing

all over Naples, " she wrote. On the bus ride in from the base,

Chastain explained chemtrails to many sailors with hacking coughs.

 

On October 12 that same year, a Paris correspondent reported " ...heavy

activity from all directions, X upon X. The pilots here seem to like

to play chicken; they fly right at each other and then one will

swerve, their trails forming pitchforks and Xs. " No contrails were

being left by " normal planes " in the same skies. But the next day,

planes flying over Paris " from all directions " obscured the sky with

more Xs that continued into the evening.

 

In Spain on April 27, 2000, American tourist John Hendricks dashed off

a quick email from El Café de Internet: " Were we surprised to see that

the chemtrails are as bad here as they are anywhere, both in Mallorca

and in Barcelona. " He and his wife " took plenty of pictures " before

noticing a postcard they'd bought captured a perfect chemtrail.

 

" Add Sweden to the list, " a Swedish resident wrote after spotting

eight to 10 parallel 'trails and contracting flu for the first time in

years. Weather conditions at the time were not conducive to contrail

formation. " I know the commercial routes, and we have a bunch of them,

but not where these trails were. "

 

Chemtrail activity has been reported in at least 14 allied nations

including Australia, Belgium, Britain, Canada, France, Germany,

Holland, Ireland, Italy, New Zealand, Scotland, Sweden and the United

States. Croatian chemtrails began the day after that country joined NATO.

ATMOSPHERIC ORGANISMS

 

Many chemtrail observers note that chemtrails are often laid down at

the leading edge of approaching frontal systems. While rare " sundogs "

form ice-crystal circles around the Sun in advance of strong winds,

much more common " chemdogs " create prismatic solar halos during stable

weather.

 

More and more observers, like this Vancouver resident, wonder why " on

the days of heavy spraying you will notice a rainbow around the Sun " .

Many more people who have been healthy all their lives wonder why they

keep getting desperately sick whenever the chemplanes appear.

 

Unlike the refined aluminum in cooking utensils that is tenuously

linked to Alzheimer's disease, aluminum oxide is as inert as sand and

is not considered toxic.

 

But in a story headlined " Tiny particles can kill " , the August 5,

2000, edition of New Scientist reported that " city-dwellers in Europe

and the US are dying young because of microscopic particles in the air " .

 

Looking at byproducts of hydrocarbon burning, a Harvard School of

Public Health team determined particulates with a diameter less than

10 microns as being a serious threat to public health. (A human hair

is about 100 microns across.) In 1987, US environmental regulations

limited airborne concentrations of particles less than 10 microns in

diameter.

 

But air pollution has grown worse. On April 21, 2001, the New York

Times warned: " These microscopic motes are able to infiltrate the

tiniest compartments in the lungs and pass readily into the

bloodstream, and have been most strongly tied to illness and early

death, particularly in people who are already susceptible to

respiratory problems. "

 

David Hawkins, a lawyer for the Natural Resources Defense Council,

speaks for " about a quarter-million Americans who have died

prematurely as result of fine-particle exposure " .

 

That number may be boosted sharply by chemtrail spraying. On December

14, 2000, the New England Journal of Medicine reported that inhaling

particulate matter of a size 10 microns or smaller leads to " a 5%

increased death rate within 24 hours " .

 

Teller's sunscreen calls for spraying 10 million tons of talcum-fine

reflective particulates of 10 to 100 micron sizes.

 

Allergic reactions to airborne fallout do not explain the entire

syndrome of chemtrail-related illness. Falling blood temperatures

accompanying symptoms of intense yet feverless " flu " is a classic sign

of chronic fungal infection. Blamed for a host of auto-immune

dysfunction, from chronic fatigue to fibromyalgia and multiple

sclerosis, the fungus within us also signals its presence in sharp

joint pain, sudden extreme fatigue, sudden dizziness, mental confusion

and short-term memory loss.

 

After nearly three years of intense investigation, I have found no

proof that chemtrails constitute a deliberate biological attack.

Research for my books on the Gulf biowar and earlier germ warfare

experiments (Bringing The War Home; Scorched Earth) show that

bio-attacks are conducted at low level and never in daylight, in order

to avoid ultraviolet sterilisation of toxins.

 

The biohazards in chemtrails may be bad LUC. The " Law of Unintended

Consequences " states that every human intervention creates

unpredictable consequences. Chemtrails can cause drought by soaking up

all available moisture, and drooping chemical curtains fall through

vast colonies of UV-mutated bacteria, viruses and fungi living in the

upper atmosphere. Could these malevolent micro-organisms be

piggy-backing on the plumes?

 

A series of balloon flights made in the US during the 1960s collected

startling stratospheric samples swarming with bacteria and fungi as

well as viruses bigger than any known at the time.

 

If viruses fall from the sky, most would land in the sea. Dipping

their beakers into coastal seawater, scientists found as many as 10

million large virus-like particles per quart. As one researcher said:

" No one knows where they come from or what they do. Their size and

shape match the virus-like particles found in the upper atmosphere. "

 

Other life-forms, even tinier than bacteria, are also thriving in our

atmosphere. The discoverer of nanobacteria, Dr Robert Folk, describes

the most populous organisms on Earth as " dwarf forms of bacteria,

about one-tenth the diameter and 1/1000th the volume of ordinary

bacteria " .

 

The Professor Emeritus at the University of Texas figures that these

ultra-tiny bugs are " possibly an order of magnitude more abundant "

than normal bacteria that swarm everywhere.

 

Since chemtrails are commonly spread over populated areas where

temperature differentials are greatest and solar shading most needed,

it is probable that particulate-laden plumes are precipitating

airborne viruses, bacteria and fungi down into human lungs and

respiratory systems unable to recognise or resist the alien invaders.

 

This possibility was further strengthened when Dr Folk chose a

lightweight metal as a matrix to grow bugs too small to be seen by

optical microscopes. Folk viewed under electronic magnification entire

ecologies of swarming nanobac. The bacteria were feasting on (he

called it " metabolising " ) aluminum.

PUBLIC CONCERN SPREADS

 

Are we worried yet? An August 2001 WorldNetDaily poll asked Americans:

" Do you think 'chemtrails' are anything to worry about? " Forty-three

per cent answered " Yes " ; another 30 per cent wanted more information

on chemtrails--a total 73 per cent of US respondents concerned about

chemtrails.

 

As lawyers across the US discuss filing the " Mother of All Lawsuits "

against Boeing, Bush and the US Air Force, their case now appears

tight enough to force further disclosures. The last glaring evidential

gap--photos of ground-based chemtrail operations--may soon be forthcoming.

 

What to do?

 

A British campaigner involved in another bid to reclaim individual

sovereignty and local autonomy held out the best hope for change when

she told a CBC radio interviewer: " The only way to get government to

do anything is if enough people stand up and shout, 'This is ridiculous!' "

 

Stay tuned. With chemtrails confirmed as a military operation aimed at

climate modification, the biggest trial is about to begin--in the

court of public opinion.
