Guest guest Posted May 3, 2006 Report Share Posted May 3, 2006 Planet Earth As Weapon and Target Beginning with the use of nuclear energy for military purposes, mankind has entered a seemingly endless race to harness the natural forces within the planet, in the atmosphere and in space for waging war. The earth is already gravely affected by many of those secret research and testing programmes leading to unpredictable environmental and epidemiological consequences. LEUREN MORET The term ‘exotic weapons systems’ includes weapons designed to damage space or natural ecosystems (such as the ionosphere and upper atmosphere) or climate, weather, and tectonic systems with the purpose of inducing damage or destruction upon a target population or region on earth or in space. (US Congress H.R. 2977: Space Preservation Act of 2001) READ THE COMPLETE ARTICLE: http://www.worldaffairsjournal.com/article1.htm CLIMATE MODIFICATION By 1965 research on climate change was pioneered by three research groups: the Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory, UCLA’s Department of Meteorology, and the National Center for Atmospheric Research. Between 1965 and 1975, interest increased and proliferated new studies, the main ones being the RAND Corporation (Santa Monica, CA) funded by the US Air Force, Goddard Institute for Space Studies (New York, NY) funded by NASA, and the Australian Numerical Meteorological Research Centre (Melbourne, Australia). It is interesting that studies in climate modification funded by the military surfaced in this period. In order to determine whether or not it was possible, reasearch had to be done on climate variations under natural conditions. During this same period large projects to study climate change from the ice record began in Antarctica (1973) and Greenland (1977). Projects that seem innocuous on their own, when put together and integrated, had a very different purpose. Early modeling studies focused on coupled atmosphere-ocean models, and spectral transform techniques. Research on the influence of carbon dioxide on climate under natural conditions used information from the ice record. Later, research began on the influence of man on climate change, or ‘inadvertent climate modification’ from pollution-induced ‘changes in climate, ocean ecology, or in large terrestrial ecosystems’. By the 1970s environmentalists introduced stratospheric ozone depletion, acid rain, and upper-atmosphere pollution from supersonic planes as climatic concerns. Two areas of instabilities can be used to modify the climate—energy coming from the Sun, or energy escaping from the atmosphere of the earth. Huge manmade energetic explosions high up in the atmosphere used to trigger instabilities, might be possible at some time in the future; in fact the Navy exploded 3 nuclear bombs in the Van Allen belt in 1958 under Project Argus and violently disrupted it. Modification of long-wave outgoing radiation, changes in the transparency of the earth’s atmosphere to radiated energy, or of terrestrial regions (desert, vegetation, water, ice) provide the most likely possibilities for human “technogenic” intervention. The military has long wanted to eliminate civilian participation in space programmes in order to gain full control. The ‘New World Order’ is being rolled out with exotic weapons that were developed collaboratively and secretly throughout the Cold War. The National Missile Defence fraud is being forced by the USA on unwilling countries around the world, at a cost of $1 trillion for the biggest corporate welfare project in world history.
