          Floyd,  First,
          the little nation had weaponry long before that date. 
          Several other nations also have some rather astounding weaponry
          as well.  Second, if you
          destroy the population, heartland, and bases of a nation, you destroy
          the nation, even if you do not kill a single one of its soldiers on
          the distant battlefield.  That
          is what dead-man fuzing is all about; a way for a nation with inferior
          strategic and field forces to yet be strong enough to force a mighty
          nation to "bottle up" its own fearsomely superior forces.  With
          sufficient dead man fuzing of almost any kind, and teams already in
          place in the enemy heartland to set the weapons off, the
          indiscriminate use of any strategic weapon is countered by it, unless
          one wishes to commit suicide.  Even
          with vastly superior strategic and operational weaponry such as
          nuclear weapons, scalar weapons, etc., if one then uses that weaponry
          to attack and destroys his adversary, the "dead man fuzing"
          of the adversary is set off and one's own nation essentially
          disappears from the face of the earth or suffers catastrophic
          destruction. That is the exact theory behind the notion of
          "mutual assured destruction". 
          It is not as simple as just having superior weapons, even far
          superior to those of one's enemy. It's based on the old wisdom of the
          king cobra, mongoose, and man pitted against each other. 
          The king cobra can easily kill a dozen men, yet the little
          mongoose will kill the cobra most times they fight. 
          The man, on the other hand, is relatively secure against the
          mongoose.  So which is
          superior?  It depends on
          the specific situation.  E.g.,
          in the Gulf war, you will note that our forces stopped short of
          destroying the Red guards, even though they had them trapped. 
          That of course guaranteed that Saddam Hussein would remain in
          power, and we would not really "pull the dragon's teeth". 
          You will also note the careful use of the phrase that was
          injected: "We have accomplished our mission of ejecting the Iraqi
          forces from Kuwait," or similar. 
          Suddenly we were not fighting a war to rid the world of the Red
          Guards and Saddam Hussein, but an "ejection"????  Could
          it possibly be that President Bush was briefed on the dead man fuzing
          retaliation capability of Saddam Hussein, and his capability to put at
          least 10 million Americans dying in the streets with anthrax alone? 
          And that General Schwarzkopf received the same briefing? 
          We will never know, because they will never tell us. 
          The answer "no" to a direct question about such a
          briefing is immaterial; that's the same answer Eisenhower did when
          Powers' plane was shot down over the Soviet Union by the Russians in
          1960, and Eisenhower was questioned whether it was a spy plane,
          remember?  They had
          President Eisenhower lie to the whole world, right on camera and the
          microphone.  Of course
          Khrushchev had set him up, having captured the pilot alive, and he
          called Eisenhower's bluff and placed Powers on exhibit for all the
          world to see.  In large
          strategic matters, it seems that lying to the public is sometimes
          considered necessary, and is regarded as part of a "deception
          plan" to fool the enemy.  It
          sometimes backfires on those high officials having to do the lying,
          though, as it did upon President Eisenhower.  The
          undeniable fact is that Saddam Hussein's fleeing forces were hemmed
          in, and those Red Guards could have been destroyed in 48 hours,
          tearing the military force support from Saddam Hussein, so that his
          overthrow would have followed shortly. 
          So for whatever reason, we managed to "snatch a kind of
          defeat" from the jaws of victory, so to speak. 
          It may have been because of the unacceptable dead man fuzing
          response in American cities that Hussein was capable of unleashing
          with a single command.  At
          any rate, many conventional analysts are convinced the ground forces
          were committed in the Persian Gulf primarily to secure the oil. 
          Quoting Miller and Mylroie: "President
          Bush offered several explanations of his decision to send ground
          forces to the Persian Gulf, a decision he made without consulting
          either the American people or their designated representatives. 
          After trying out several variations on different themes, he
          settled on the deployment as a means of preserving 'our very way of
          life'. … He could
          have put it more directly: Americans went to the Gulf for oil, on
          which our 'very way of life' so greatly depends. 
          … President Bush .. acted because Saddam Hussein, this
          particular thug, chose to swallow up Kuwait, that particular
          defenseless country, in the part of the world that happens to contain
          40 percent of the planet's petroleum reserves." 
          [Judith Miler and Laurie Mylroie, Saddam Hussein and the
          Crisis in the Gulf, Times Books, Random House, 1990, p. 216, 220.] 
          In my opinion this is true, but still does not explain why the
          sudden decision was made not to remove the "thug" since his
          forces were in the grasp of Schwarzkopf.  And
          yes, in case it makes any difference to anyone, I personally approve
          of President Bush's decision to prevent seizure and/or domination of
          the MidEast and its oil by Iraq.  Had
          he not moved, the recent energy crunch in California pale by
          comparison to what would have happened to the entire U.S. 
          An economic collapse of the U.S. would have been almost
          inevitable at Saddam Hussein's hands.  Strangle
          the oil, and you strangle America and much of the West as well.  That's
          one neat little way for a power-seeker such as Saddam Hussein to bring
          a Goliath such as the U.S. to its knees.  Another
          is to install sufficient dead man fuzing in Goliath's home. 
          Both are better yet, as far as the dictator thirsting for
          overthrow of the U.S. is concerned.  Consider
          this fact.  After the Gulf
          War, the UN inspection teams found weapon grade uranium residues in
          some of the calutrons, before the Iraqis moved them. 
          I personally was producing an official threat document for one
          of the MidEast nations before, during, and after the Gulf War. 
          Our study concluded that Saddam Hussein already had made enough
          enriched uranium to make from 5 to 7 atomic bombs of his own. 
          He moved the calutrons to an undisclosed location before full
          inspections could be performed.  He
          has very probably continued to enrich uranium, and should have enough
          enriched bomb-grade uranium at present for perhaps  three
          dozen atomic bombs.  At
          the same time that President Bush's decision to halt Schwarzkopf and
          not allow the total destruction of the Red Guards was suddenly made,
          Saddam Hussein already had hostile teams on site in the large
          population centers of the U.S.  These
          teams had anthrax and biological agents, as well as chemical agents,
          and they may even have had a few clandestine nuclear weapons on site
          also.  Also at the same
          time, those same large population centers of the U.S. had large (not
          little suitcase size!) Russian nuclear weapons hidden in them, again
          with Spetznatz teams ready to unleash them. 
          Lunev, e.g., tells us how they brought these weapons in. 
          Quoting directly from 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:  p.
          22:
          "Though
          most Americans don't realize it, America is already penetrated by
          Russian military intelligence to the extent that arms caches lie in
          wait for use by Russian special forces — or Spetznatz."  p.
          26:
          "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."  To
          show just how easy it was to purchase nuclear arms from Russia after
          the collapse of its economy, here is one incident Lunev tells us
          about:  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."  One
          wonders how many other such purchases did
          not
          fall through.  The Russian
          Mafia is the power in Russia today, and is growing rapidly in the
          United States and in Israel.  Here
          are additional quotes from Lunev:  p.
          14.: 
          "The Soviet Union did
          not collapse because of 'reform minded leaders' or because of the
          Reagan administration's brilliantly aggressive strategy (though that
          strategy played a part).  The
          truth is that the Russian mafia caused the collapse. 
          Soviet 'reform' was nothing more than a criminal
          revolution."  p.
          12:
          "When the Soviet Union
          collapsed and its industries were privatized, there was only one group
          within Russia with the money to buy the new industries, and that was
          the Russian mafia.  But
          the mafia did more than buy the industries — it bought the
          government."  [And
          we thought that the lobbyists buying our
          politicians were bad!]  p.
          28: 
          "Officially,
          Gorbachev killed all research into chemical, biological, and other
          weapons systems.  Ironically,
          Yeltsin also had to issue a decree killing these programs years later. 
          Recent defectors, however, tell that the research into all
          these programs is continuing." 
            Comment:
          one of those neat little biological agents developed by the Russians
          was and is a modified smallpox agent, immune to the present vaccine. 
          A great many persons now are not vaccinated against smallpox
          anyway.  The pitifully
          small vaccine stocks that are left, in case ordinary smallpox were
          unleashed, are leaking and most is unfit for human use. 
          How bad is that?  Unleashing
          smallpox (even the ordinary kind) in a single large city will
          eventually kill off nearly one third of the human population on earth.
          Check it out; see Garrett:  "Were
          a terrorist to disperse the smallpox virus, for example, populations
          that were once universally vaccinated would now be horribly
          vulnerable.  Today the
          U.S. government stows only about 15.4 million doses of the smallpox
          vaccine—enough for less than seven percent of the American
          population.  The World
          Health Organization (WHO) keeps another 500,000 doses in the
          Netherlands, and other national stockpiles total about 60 million more
          doses of varying quality and potency. 
          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. 
          The quote is from p. 77.  Again,
          Lunev, p. 32: . "In the early
          1990s, the GRU decided that it would train any terrorist group that
          was able to pay for it.  If
          they are politically aligned with Russia, all the better. 
          However, that is not a requirement."  p.
          161-162: 
          "….the Russian
          mafia will become a major problem around the world. 
          They will infiltrate any profitable market and are ruthless
          criminals.  They have set
          up major operations in New York, California, and Florida. 
          Russian émigrés provide them with a vulnerable community to
          exploit and gain a foothold.  Then
          they expand.  Only a
          strong and diligent government can control their spread. 
          The FBI will have its hands full."  We
          note that the Russian Mafia has already become a great headache in
          Israel, stuffing a great deal of laundered money in Israeli banks. 
          It was so bad that the Israelis quintupled the staff of their
          counterintelligence agency seeking out such penetration and
          money-laundering.  So
          all the terrorist groups that wished biological agents, chemical
          weapons, etc. have them now, with high probability. 
          Much of those arsenals of weapons of mass destruction have been
          infiltrated on-site into the U.S. by several nations hostile to the
          U.S.  For decades, e.g.,
          Castro has run guerrilla and agent training camps in Southern Mexico,
          and the majority of the graduates have been infiltrated into the
          United States across the Rio Grande. 
          Perhaps 5,000 are here, waiting for the command to blow up key
          bridges, power distribution lines and centers, key dams, refineries,
          pipelines, etc.  In
          short, as we said in other papers: 
          The first phase of World War III has already largely been
          accomplished.  That is,
          the first phase is the delivery of the strategic weapons on site to
          the target in the adversary's homeland. 
          The second phase is to set them off on order. 
          The world is actually a giant powder keg, with the clock on the
          timer ticking away.  We
          are and have been in the first phase of WW III for some time, and the
          news media and populace are not even aware of it.  That
          is really what the term "dead man fuzing" is and implies. 
          Dead man fuzing has been elevated to the major way to conduct
          strategic war, or certainly one of the major ways to do so.  It
          is not all just "superweapons". 
          As has been said, the poor man's atomic bombs are those other
          weapons of mass destruction such as chemical, biological, etc.
          weapons.  In
          the U.S., we have already been "seeded" by both the
          strategic nukes and the poor man's "nukes", so to speak, and
          the superweapons have also been gingerly tested against us, as
          essentially confirmed by then Secretary of Defense William Cohen in
          1997.  Quoting: "Others
          [terrorists] 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 [counterterrorism] efforts." 
          [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].    Unknown
          to the SecDef, at the very moment he was making that statement in
          Georgia, KGB strategic forces were standing down from a full-bore
          superweapon strategic attack that had been scheduled to be unleashed
          on May 1, 1997, three days later. 
          Do not ask me a question about that for I will not answer. 
          But it is 100% true.  That
          was the second such full-up strategic attack that had been scheduled
          against the United States that year, both of which were forced to be
          aborted and not launched.  A
          third giant attack force abuilding apparently was later destroyed on
          site in Russia.  It never
          made the papers and it never will. 
          The acceptance tests for that weapon system consisted of the
          instant seizure and control of Captain Button in his A-10, and flying
          him around for one hour, until he finally crashed and died in the
          crash.  A second was
          against Captain Svoboda in her A-10, climbing out of ordnance release
          on the range target at night.  Her
          sense of up and down were flipped, causing her to instantly react to
          "pull up sharply and climb", so that she suddenly dived
          headlong into the ground and died in the explosion. 
          A third was against Captain Hess, who went for his morning jog,
          sudden peeled aside, sat down, and stabbed himself repeatedly in the
          torso, more than one penetrating the heart. For some of this, see my
          article, "Mind
          Control and EM Wave Polarization Transductions, Part I", Explore,
          9(2), 1999, p. 59; Part II, Explore, 9(3), 1999, p. 61; Part
          III, Explore, 9(4,5), 1999, p. 100-108. 
          Even so, a combination of judicious forcible intervention and
          dead man fuzing prevented these strategic attacks from being launched.  The
          Congress's Office of Technology Assessment studied what would happen
          if a professional anthrax attack were placed on Washington D.C. 
          One would use a Piper-Cub sized airplane, with a simple cheap
          agricultural sprayer, two men (one to fly, one to spray) and 100
          kilograms of anthrax spores.  Then
          just putter around over Washington, D.C. on a calm night with little
          or no wind.  The plane
          lands and the terrorists vanish back into the shadows from whence they
          came.  The first sign that
          anything is wrong, will be when loads of people start coming down sick
          with the symptoms of anthrax.  That
          simple thing will produce 1 to 3 million U.S. casualties, in that
          single city alone, by the official OTA study. 
            It's
          even worse.  If the QP
          weapons (already tested in this mode over the U.S.) are used to lower
          the immune systems of the targeted population, then from 3 to 5 times
          as many casualties will result from that same attack. 
          In short, from 3 to 15 million U.S. citizens will lie dying of
          anthrax very shortly, in that single city alone. 
          And 5 to 10 cities could easily be simultaneously targeted and
          hit.  A total of, say, 20
          terrorists with some back-up support. 
          And a total of from 5 to 10 kilograms of anthrax spores. Pound
          for pound, the anthrax gives far more "bang for the buck"
          than nuclear weapons.  Far
          more!  There
          is nowhere in our nation any real capability to adequately deal with
          such an  attack and the
          extraordinary number of mass casualties, and don't let them kid you. 
          Once the anthrax symptoms are evident, most of the stricken
          will die anyway.  There
          are nowhere nearly enough medical teams, antibiotics, hospital
          shelters, etc. available to scratch the surface. 
          There are absolutely no civilian personnel shelters for the
          populace in the cities, much less with biological agent filters. 
          There are no gas masks for the civilian population, and none
          that are biological warfare proof also. 
          In such conditions, two very unpleasant things will of
          necessity happen:  (1) 
          triage will apply; most of those stricken will show symptoms,
          and they will just be set aside and parked to die as it is nearly
          useless to treat them; and (2) it is almost certain that our own
          forces will promptly utilize some harsh chemical sprays to spray the
          entire city and the entire populace, in order to desperately
          decontaminate the city or try to. 
          This spray will kill the anthrax spores, on the ground and
          including in lungs that breathe it in. 
          But it is highly stressing, and will strongly stress the aged,
          the infirm, those with lung or breathing disorders, infants and very
          small children, etc.  Undoubtedly
          the spray will itself kill a few more civilians, perhaps (gut estimate
          in this case) as many as 25,000. 
          They have no choice but to try desperately to decontaminate the
          city, else the anthrax will remain and continue to kill masses of
          people by the million, wholesale.  We
          now face the kind of decisions in our population defense, as formerly
          was reserved  for combat
          soldiers on distant battlefields. 
          There a commander might have to sacrifice one or two divisions
          to block a horrendous attack and hold it, while withdrawing and saving
          the remainder of his army, back to a better position to fight again. 
          When he issued the order, he knew he was sending those brave
          men -- 18,000 per division -- to their certain death. 
          But in so doing, he saved the rest of his army, perhaps
          200,000.  Today, that same
          kind of horrible decision has to be made by those commanders and
          federal officials overseeing the defense of the American populace. 
          As a military man, I admit I can make such a decision for
          combat forces; that is one of the terrible facts of war that any
          military officer must accept a priori. 
          But it would bother me very deeply to be faced with such a
          decision to use a harsh spray, etc. on our own citizens, killing --
          say -- 25,000, in order to save 10 million or more. 
          I understand the necessity for such a decision, and the
          inevitability, but am not sure I personally could make it. 
          Such are the horrors of modern war, which now has been moved
          from soldiers on the distant battlefield to the population centers and
          our civilian population.  But
          as can be seen, this nation is a sitting duck for the "new
          warfare" (read, the new use of "dead man fuzing" war
          against the civilian populace).  And
          there are many more ways than one to perform such "dead man
          fuzing".  Wells
          was not so far wrong in his "War of the Worlds". 
          In that novel, invading and vastly superior alien forces with
          advanced technology weapons were defeated by tiny microbes -- by a
          version of biological warfare.  And
          so can the quantum potential weapons, the scalar interferometry
          weapons, and some of the others such as negative energy EMP weapons
          --- now in the hands of China --- be neutralized as well. 
          By simple microbes, their cultivation, and a small group of
          determined terrorists to unleash them.  Hope
          this helps illuminate the problem. 
          The KGB was contained on several occasions because of dead man
          fuzing in its own territory and dead man fuzing of other weapons that
          would automatically self-launch, even if the host nation were
          destroyed.  If the KGB had
          moved, it could probably have destroyed America, but it itself would
          have been devastated as well, with no one winning and everyone losing. 
          The Russians were and are chessplayers and not suicidal
          lunatics -- although on one occasion only the will of a single Soviet
          Colonel, who disobeyed orders to launch, prevented a nuclear holocaust
          and full nuclear exchange, after sensors and computers made an
          interpretative error and reported that the U.S. had launched nukes
          against Russia and they were enroute.  
          The Russians simply chose not to commit suicide, but to wait
          and maneuver for a decisive opening where they could strike and
          destroy the West while suffering only acceptable damage in return.  The
          Cold War did not end, it merely changed complexion. 
          Simply go and count the diminishing number of U.S. combat
          divisions, and you will see that one major objective has already been
          accomplished by that changing complexion. 
          Once the West decides a war is over, it historically beats its
          swords back into ploughshares.  So
          give us the ending of the "war we recognize", and that is
          precisely what happens.  Tom
