Kristoffer “Kris” Kristofferson is a legendary American country music singer, songwriter and actor. He is best known for hits such as “Me and Bobby McGee”, “Sunday Mornin’ Comin’ Down”, and “Help Me Make It Through the Night”. He is also a political activist. Kris released a music video about how he feels about George Bush, and the way Bush is handling the world today. The video “In The News” has reached #18 on Neil Young’s Living With War Today. In my opinion, Kris’s video is a form of art as a political statement. See the video and judge for yourself. Is art political? How does it affect you, and the way you feel about the world today?

HAARP Array #2 DARPA (Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency) here in the USA is still playing God with the weather, modifying weather for warfare, and God only knows what else. The Department of Defense (DoD) knows how to modify the weather. They plan to use this in warfare, “to enhance friendly force capabilities and degrade those of the adversary.”

HAARP ArrayI heard the military had the capability to modify the weather for weather warfare, and was experimenting here in the U.S.A. I was told they were causing hurricanes, drought, earthquakes, floods, forest fires, lightning, tsunamis and other things like experimenting with mind control. I refused to believe it. How foolish I was. I soon stumbled upon the information on an Air Force website.

HAARP (High-frequency Active Auroral Research Program) is the American military’s plan to manipulate the world’s ionosphere, and can create earthquakes, tornadoes, hurricanes, tsunamis, jam all global communications, tsunamidisrupt weather systems, interfere with migration patterns, disrupt human mental processes, negatively affect your health and disrupt the upper atmosphere.

In the video Dr. Nick Begich discusses HAARP. HAARP technology is the ultimate radio frequency microwave weapons system disguised as a research instrument. Publicity gives the impression that HAARP is an academic project with the goal of changing the ionosphere to improve communications for our own good. I can see how it could be used in much more sinister ways, and according to U.S. military documents — HAARP aims to “exploit the ionosphere for Department of Defense purposes”.

The Air Force site I found the paper on moved or deleted it, but you can check out the unclassified Air Force Weather Modification For Warfare paper called Weather As A Force Multiplier: Owning The Weather 2025 on the Federation of American Scientists (FAS) website.

starving child Here is a short excerpt of what Philip Hoag who published a book on the subjects of weather modification and tesla-scalar electromagnetic weapons, had to say about it. “The threats of weather warfare, totalitarian government and famine dovetail together. As we saw in the famine which the Soviets artificially created in the Ukraine prior to World War II, famine is an effective means of subjugating a people. By controlling food, you can control people. Weather modification can affect food production and eventually the available supply. Starving resisters out is much more effective than having to track them down and shoot it out with them. Philip Hoag If you have not surrendered your weapons, you don’t get a food ration coupon. Long-term food storage, well hidden, is the only insulation against famine and totalitarian oppression.” Read more of Weather Modification by Philip L. Hoag

In the US, the technology is being perfected under the High-frequency Active Auroral Research Program (HAARP) as part of “Star Wars,” otherwise known as the Strategic Defense Initiative (SDI). There is scientific evidence proving that HAARP is fully operational and has the ability to potentially trigger floods, droughts, hurricanes, tsunamis and earthquakes. Now you might say the military gave up Star Wars, but read on to see the truth.

Rosalie Bertell World-renowned scientist and nun Dr. Rosalie Bertell confirms that “US military scientists are working on weather systems as a potential weapon.” As The Times of London reported on November 23, 2000, “The methods include the enhancing of storms and the diverting of vapor rivers in the Earth’s atmosphere to produce targeted droughts or floods.” You can read some of Dr. Rosalie Bertell’s work HERE

Bertell depicts HAARP as “a gigantic heater that can cause major disruption in the ionosphere, creating not just holes, but long incisions in the protective layer that keeps deadly radiation from bombarding the planet.”

Dr Nick Begich In The Military’s Pandora’s Box, Dr. Nick Begich, a scientist actively involved in the campaign against HAARP, describes it as “a super-powerful radio wave beaming technology that lifts areas of the ionosphere (upper layer of the atmosphere) by focusing a beam and heating those areas. Electromagnetic waves then bounce back onto earth and penetrate everything - living and dead.”

More on HAARP

The US Air Force claims:
“The potential applications of artificial electromagnetic fields are wide-ranging and can be used in many military or quasi-military situations… Some of these potential uses include dealing with terrorist groups, crowd control, controlling breaches of security at military installations, and antipersonnel techniques in tactical warfare. In all of these cases the EM (electromagnetic) systems would be used to produce mild to severe physiological disruption or perceptual distortion or disorientation. In addition, the ability of individuals to function could be degraded to such a point that they would be combat-ineffective. Another advantage of electromagnetic systems is that they can provide coverage over large areas with a single system. They are silent, and countermeasures to them may be difficult to develop… One last area where electromagnetic radiation may prove of some value is in enhancing abilities of individuals for anomalous phenomena.”

Air Force Logo Do these comments point to uses already somewhat developed? The author of the government report refers to an earlier Air Force document about the uses of radio-frequency radiation in combat situations. (Here, Begich and Manning note that HAARP is the most versatile and the largest radio-frequency radiation transmitter in the world.)

The United States congressional record deals with the use of HAARP for penetrating the Earth with signals bounced off the ionosphere. These signals are used to look inside the planet to a depth of many kilometers in order to locate underground munitions, minerals and tunnels. Way back in 1996, the US Senate set aside US $15 million to develop this ability: Earth-penetrating tomography, with millions and millions more set aside every year since then.

The problem with earth-penetrating tomography is that the frequency needed for Earth-penetrating radiations is within the frequency range most cited for disruption of human mental functions. It also has profound effects on migration patterns of fish and wild animals which rely on an undisturbed energy field to find their routes.

As if electromagnetic pulses in the sky and mental disruption were not enough, Bernard J. Eastlund (patent holder and developer of some of the HAARP technology, bragged that the super-powerful ionospheric heater could control weather. Begich and Manning brought to light government documents indicating that the military has weather-control technology. When HAARP is eventually built to its full power level, it could create weather effects over entire hemispheres. If one government experiments with the world’s weather patterns, what is done in one place will impact everyone else on the planet. Angels Don’t Play This HAARP explains a principle behind some of Nikola Tesla’s inventions-resonance-which affects planetary systems.

Bernard J. Eastlund’s US Patent #4,686,605, “Method and Apparatus for Altering a Region in the Earth’s Atmosphere, Ionosphere and/or Magnetosphere”, was sealed for a year under a government secrecy order.

weather as a force multiplier The military’s goal is full scale global dominance by the year 2025. And one of those stated goals is owning the weather: “Weather as a Force Multiplier: Owning The Weather In 2025.”

Part of what HAARP is doing now is what was first sketched out by President Ronald Reagan in 1983 as the Strategic Defense Initiative (SDI), quickly dubbed “Star Wars”. The military said they gave up Star Wars. They convinced congress that it was never fully developed or deployed. What a joke, because in January of 2007 the Czechoslovakian government gave the go-ahead for a US ’son of star wars’ base.

See “No Star Wars in Europe”. And then watch this video “David against Goliath” of Czech citizens protesting the plan in Wenceslas Square in Prague, Czechoslovakia last year for more background on the issue.

And just last Wednesday April 16, 2008 the Czech Humanist Movement, a group of Czechoslovakian peace activists, posted an international petition against the possible stationing of a US radar base in their homeland. The petition is called No Star Wars. The movement plans to launch a billboard campaign promoting the petition in the Czech Republic later this week. The statement accompanying the petition says that “The implementation of this project is… generating a new arms race and is the first step towards the militarization and control of space.”

The US government must clearly understand that it is not carrying out a dialogue with the Czech people, but with a minority that does not represent the will of the majority of Czech citizens. Americans must clearly understand that the American government’s policies are generating a widespread feeling of “anti-Americanism”.

Join these modern-day Czech dissidents in protesting one of the latest of the Bush Administration’s imperial schemes (conspiracy, propaganda) by clicking here adding your name to the petition and by helping spread the word. With your help, the organizer’s goal of securing 500,000 signatures is well within reach.

And don’t even think that it is just the American government involved in these creepy research projects. The British Royal Air Force (RAF) and Western scientists engaged in Operation Cumulus in 1952, which, according to an August 2001 BBC broadcast, was a rainmaking project that led to 35 flood-related deaths in Devon, it was an artificially created man made disaster, instead of a natural disaster. Declassified documents show that in 1953 the British military and their allies experimented with increasing rain and snow by artificial means in hopes of “bogging down enemy movement.” Perhaps more shocking, the documents showed that they contemplated the possibility of “exploding an atomic weapon in a seeded storm system or cloud.” This would produce a far wider area of radioactive contamination than a normal atomic explosion.

Rachel CorrieRachel Corrie, an American college student, was murdered March 16, 2003, by the Israeli Army while trying to block demolition of a Palestinian doctor’s home in Gaza by an Israeli army bulldozer, made in America by Caterpillar Inc. and paid for with American taxpayer’s dollars. The doctor was a peaceful man. “Rachel Corrie believed in non-violent resistance, put herself in harm’s way as a shield of the people, and paid with her life in a manner most brutal.” –Billy Bragg–

Eyewitness Account

The following account is from Joe Carr, a International Solidarity Movement (ISM) peace activist from Kansas City, Missouri.

“Between 16:45 and 17:00, One Israeli Defense Force bulldozer, serial number 949623, began to work near the house of a physician who is a friend of ours. It continued driving forward headed straight for Rachel. When it got so close that it was moving the earth beneath her, she climbed onto the pile of rubble being pushed by the bulldozer. She got so high onto it that she was at eye-level with the cab of the bulldozer. Despite this, he continued forward, which pulled her legs into the pile of rubble, and pulled her down out of view of the driver. We ran towards him, and waved our arms and shouted, one activist with the megaphone. But he continued forward, until Rachel was underneath the central section of the bulldozer. Despite the obviousness of her position, the bulldozer began to reverse, without lifting its blade, and drug the blade over her body again. He continued to reverse until he was on the boarder strip, about 100 meters away, and left her crushed body in the sand. Three activists ran to her and began administering first-responder medical treatment. She said, “My back is broken!” but nothing else …”

Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) Using Caterpillar and Volvo Bulldozers Destroying Palestinian Homes In GazaAccording to Amnesty International, “For years, the Israeli authorities have pursued a policy of discriminatory house demolition, on the one hand allowing scores of Israeli settlements to be built on occupied Palestinian land, in breach of international law, while simultaneously confiscating Palestinian lands, refusing building permits for Palestinians and destroying their homes. The land vacated has often been used to build illegal Israeli settlements. International law forbids occupying powers from settling their own citizens in the territories they occupy.”

20,000 Palestinian Homes Destroyed In Gaza, Palestine“Any humanitarian looking at the sheer number of innocent civilians who have lost their homes can only condemn Israel’s house demolition policy as a hugely disproportionate military response by an occupation army… It is a policy that creates only hardship and bitterness, and in the end can only undermine hope for future reconciliation and peace.” -–Peter Hansen– Commissioner General of United Nations Relief Works Agency (UNRWA)

Israeli Army Stop Shooting ChildrenIn Israel, since 1947, the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) have been guilty of genocide, an ethnic cleansing of the native palestinian people. Amnesty International rips IDF for ‘reckless disregard of life’ in Gaza. The London-based human rights organization Amnesty International has condemned Israel’s attacks on Gaza, claiming they are “being carried out with reckless disregard for civilian life,” killing disproportionately huge numbers of unarmed civilian bystanders. The statement said that IDF actions this week displayed a “disproportion and recklessness” that has “characterized” its operations in Palestinian territories. In its statement, Amnesty highlighted disproportionate casualty statistics in the conflict, saying that in the last two months, close to 200 Gazans, of whom around “one-third were unarmed civilian bystanders, including 15 children” have been killed.” In the same period, the statement continued, “one Israeli civilian was killed and several injured by rocket fire,” the statement said. “This latest cycle of killings and destruction comes at a time when the 1.5 million inhabitants of Gaza are confronting a humanitarian crisis as a result of the increasingly stringent blockade imposed by Israel on Gaza. Hospitals and medical facilities, already struggling to cope with shortages of electricity, fuel, equipment and spare parts due to the Israeli blockade, are struggling to cope with the new influx of casualties caused by Israeli attacks in the last few days. With Gaza’s borders sealed, many patients in dire need of medical care which is not available in Gaza cannot be transferred to hospitals abroad and risk losing their lives.”

Caterpillar Bulldozers Involved In Destroying Palestine Homes In Gaza And In The Murder Of American Rachel CorrieRachel Corrie’s death is a scandalous example of American taxpayer’s dollars at work. Caterpillar Inc. and Volvo, two American companies, are involved and taking money from Israel to pay for the bulldozers. This money was obtained by Israel from American taxes to pay for the demolition of homes, and the death of Rachel Corrie. Doesn’t this make you proud be an American?

On September 11th, 2001 there was a conspiracy waged for war with Iraq and Afghanistan for oil and corporate greed.

This video is a reminder of that, and is a compilation of clips I put together, with a song by the legendary musical activist John Kasper, whose musical talent and ambition rival that of big-time musicians. Anthony Krizan of the legendary *Spin Doctors* produced “Conspiracy of Silence” with the New Jersey based John Kasper Band.

“Remind us again how September Eleventh will justify all of your unjustifiable wars.”

Activists Protest Iraq War At Johnson County Community CollegeIn case you haven’t heard, on August 14th, 2007 Kansas Representative Dennis Moore and Kansas Senator Pat Roberts met for a little “kaffeeklatch” at Johnson County Community College (JCCC) near Kansas City, Kansas. It was an attempt at bipartisanship - - a blue dog Dem talking with a Repub - - trying to make all the problems go away. They sat and talked about nothing for about an hour and a half. They took questions from the audience that were written on postcards and screened by the evening’s moderator - - who made sure that all questions asked of the gentlemen in public were totally inane. You all know the view of the American public on the Iraq war - - an overwhelming majority want it OVER - - and there was NOT ONE WORD mentioned about the w-a-r.

Well, about 9pm as they were wrapping up, there was a sudden unveiling of the truth! The audience heard a “thud-thud-thud” and turned around to find to the dismay of Moore and Roberts, no doubt, a HUGE banner which you see in the picture.

Kaedden [last name unknown], an employee of JCCC, willingly “fell on his sword,” as activist David Quinly put it. He knew he would be fired from his job working for the theater at JCCC, but still climbed up on the catwalk to push the banner out so everyone could see it. He was taken to the Security office and questioned for about an hour. David asked him later if he had been water-boarded or otherwise tortured. Kaedden wasn’t sure if they would press charges of any type. He said that the college threatened to “ban” him from the campus. We were ready to post bail!

Hopefully, this may help to open some folks’ eyes.
