The ‘MH370’ Flap Heralds Rothschilds
Reunion With Japanese Fascism

By Yoichi Shimatsu

Let us be delighted that a Boeing flaperon mysteriously swept ashore on the French territory of Reunion island, near the African continent, exposing further the villainy of those who ordered the hijacking of Malaysian Airlines flight MH370. Let us, in the same breath, silently appeal for mercy to someday be bestowed on the captives and justice rendered for the distraught families, that the hour of deliverance might arrive sooner than later.

The survival of an intact flaperon undamaged, without even a single dent, after the impact of that large plane onto the sea surface, would be incredible to the point of no credibility at all. The tilt-able part is located on the inner wing, near its joint with the hull, and the movable flap, and therefore is strongly held in place by steel rods. The news media repeats the claim that the flaperon could only have come from MH370. Yet these sorts of used plane parts are available at various maintenance hangars and aircraft graveyards around the world, so obtaining a flaperon to deposit on shore poses no insurmountable difficulty.

The more astounding find on the Reunion shore was reported by IBT (International Business Times) online news: a Malay language Koran inside a waterproof plastic container. If this miraculous find is not a divine act, it would have to be alternatively the blasphemous crime of planting false evidence. Much therefore rides on forensic analysis of the physical evidence. A “conclusive” determination will come from a France-based research team, but its verdict should come with a warning that the French cannot be trusted on an matter so relevant to their own national interests and allied Israeli military strategy.

A more critical look at all aspects of this case is required to avoid a headlong rush to judgment. In this occasional series of articles on the hijacking of Malaysian Airlines 370, key facts have so far been withheld from our readers, to spare the next of kin of passengers and crew members from further anxiety. Now, at the risk of upsetting some folks with disturbing facts, lesser-known details of the hijacking and ongoing cover-up are herewith disclosed.

False Leads Abound

In regard to the “discoveries” on the beach at Reunion, as every family member knows in her or his gut, the flaperon claim is yet another big lie atop a huge heap of falsification. The aim of this independent investigation is to identify the perpetrators and their motives, and then to bring them to the justice they so well deserve.

Since time is precious, let’s immediately name the culprits behind his clever and cruel game of misdirection at Reunion island: Etienne Uzac, publisher of Newsweek and IBT (International Business Times) online news, and his hidden masters with the Rothschild dynasty; and Jonathan Davis, IBT editor under the control of his Doomsday guru David Jang, a descendant of Japanese psychological-warfare operations in occupied Korea and wartime Manchuria.

What secret connects these two seemingly disparate spymasters, French and English Jews and an apocalyptic Christian Korean pastor? Virtually unknown to the public, both of the guilty parties are linked to a dark past, the “black hole” of fascist Turanism and its master-race theory. Their design for world conquest is discussed further along in this essay. The devil’s in the details, so let’s first closely examine the intricacies of their diabolical plot.

Onward the Anti-Christ

In August 2013, two chums from the London School of Economics (LSE) took ownership of the venerable Newsweek magazine from the estate of the late Sidney Harman, boss of Harmon Kardon consumer electronics, who bought the publication for a symbolic $1 from the debt-straddled Washington Post group.

That two zealous young Christians purchased a global newsmagazine was at first greeted with elation by the online media community for the novelty, at long last, of a leading mainstream magazine not being under the control of Jewish-Zionist press magnates.

That silly elation just goes to show how much your average online journalist knows about the real world. Are Nathan’s hot dogs Christian or kosher? When someone reads the label of ingredients on an 8-pack of sausage, “all beef” might just be a clue, but the hechster (kosher symbol) says it all: Pareve. So don’t make te sign of the cross, as if a hot dog is a communion wafer. And don’t mix up the hechster with the halal stamp of certification. Historically, hechster and halal are basically the same set of dietary restrictions passed down from the original founder Moses, who darned well knew what’s fatally wrong with breakfast pork patties inside an English muffin. Christians, for some unhealthy reason, are permitted to dine on ham and bacon. So the long and short of it is: What’s the connection between these evangelicals and Jewish billionaires? Well, for one thing, their avid support for Israel.

Jingo Jango

An expose in Mother Jones magazine attributed the rise of these evangelical upstarts to a Korean pastor in San Francisco named David Jang, founder of Olivet University, which is located next door to the Moscone Convention Center.

Jang is a man of mystery, known for his avoidance of media attention, in sharp contrast with his brethren like those extrovert televangelists Jimbo and Tammy Faye Bakker. In response to his many critics probing his murky background, the Korean pastor has filed dozens of libel suits. His vehement reaction against doubters recalls the saying, “If you’re paranoiac, there are good reasons for it.”

One of his libel cases filed in a Japanese court of law was against a Salvation Army leader who disclosed that Jang is a minion of the Reverend Sun Myung Moon, boss of the Unification Church, who his followers say is not really dead but just kept in a jar somewhere like a pet lizard. Another critic remembers Jang’s marriage at a Moonie mass wedding in Japan. What could peeving Reverend Jang about his past in Korea and Japan? Be patient, we’ll get around to it soon.

The Devil’s Disciples

It turns out that Jang’s underling Jonathan Davis, now IBT editor, ran the journalism department at Olivet University, where his cub reporters spend most of their class hours translating articles from the English- and Japanese-language online media into other languages, notably Chinese and Arabic. This slave driver was the ideal chief content editor for IBT, the evangelical equivalent of Falun Gong’s Epoch Times.

Etienne Uzac had a much more important role in the Jang organization as treasurer for Olivet University and all-round business manager. Quoting from the Mother Jones piece: “Uzac sat on Olivet’s board of trustees until last year, and his wife, Marion, who has also worked at IBT Media, was previously the press secretary for the World Evangelical Alliance. Olivet is a member of the alliance and Jang sits on the alliance’s North American council.”

The MJ article indicates that Olivet University was hard-pressed for cash to pay overdue rent, so its monthly pay for student interns was a measly $150 per month., barely enough to purchase two dozen box lunches in expensive San Francisco. So where did Uzac find the funds to take over Newsweek and funnel money back to Olivet University?

Now comes the chicken-or-egg riddle: If Jang’s pet project, Olivet University, was so strapped for cash, how could the pastor have purchased and started up Newsweek and IBT? Well, he didn’t. By all accounts, the flow of funds moved in the reverse direction: from Newsweek to Olivet. So how does a media company that was not credit-worthy enough to raise cash on the markets manage to donate money to a religious-based college? There had to have been a slush fund. So who is the shadow financier of Newsweek and Olivet University?

Rothschild Weapons Industries

Etienne Uzac attended the Lycee Stanislas, an elite Catholic preparatory school and college on the Left Bank in central Paris, near the famous cafes frequented by Jean-Paul Sartre. Its prominent alums include President Gen. Charles de Gaulle, Christian Dior and social theorist Jacques Lacan. Between his prep-school years and MBA program, according to French sources, Etienne returned home to Johannesburg, South Africa, and worked for a travel agency, specializing in the destinations of Beirut, Mauritius (off the coast of Madagascar, just north of Reunion) and Reunion, the department (state of France) closest in distance to southern Africa. Reunion? Now does that ring a bell?

His father, a former commercial officer at the French Embassy to Pretoria, is the corporate representative of the ERAMET office in southern Africa. The mining and metallurgy company, listed on Euronext exchange as ERA, invests in and operates large-scale extraction of strategic mineral ores including manganese, nickel, cobalt and tungsten, metals that are needed for steel alloys used in the weapons industry and aircraft manufacturing. French Africa and Indonesia, its primary zones of mining operations, are the scene of brutal counterinsurgency offensives against indigenous peoples and grinding exploitation of survivors, as exemplified in the “coltan wars”.

One of the rare sources on the Rothschild’s secretive mineral-extraction dealings, the Cambridge History of the Pacific Islanders, states: “The ERAMET company was founded with the funding of the Rothschild family (although they were careful to avoid being listed as founders of the company) in 1880. With discretion, the family took full control of the company in 1890.” ERAMET is listed at the stock exchange as a “societe anonyme”, or an anonymous corporation. Hmm, that sounds a bit dubious.

These “principled Christians” were controlled all along by that conniving Jewish family. So much for hasty celebrations of non-Jewish control of the American media! The Zionist evangelical movement, with their “machine-gun pastors” running paramilitary operations in Uganda and Iraq, and spouting pro-Israeli drivel on Fox News, are paid-for mercenaries of the Rothschilds.

So the answer to the riddle is: the kosher chicken laid the evangelical egg, of course. The Rothschilds financed the takeover of Newsweek and creation of IBT, which are since involved in the MH cover-up and other disinformation campaigns. Would it be any surprise if the Rothschilds are behind the depositing of a barnacle-encrusted Boeing flaperon in their personal domain of Reunion, along with the waterlogged Koran to add insult to injury to the battered Malaysians?

Indian Ocean Tax Havens

The archipelago of Mauritius, the nearest neighbor of the French department of Reunion, is the financial fiefdom of Benjamin Rothschild’s investment bank named after his father, Banque Privee Edmond de Rothschild. His tentacles reach into that island-nation’s central bank and the many tax-haven operators in that outlaw territory, which cater to corrupt Chinese officials on the lam, drug traffickers from Southeast Asia and African warlords. Here is the welcome mat for tax-dodgers and crooks from one of the Rothschild financial speakeasies:

“AAMIL Asset Management Ltd. is regulated by the Financial Services Commission of the Republic of Mauritius. (ha, ha, ha, ho, ho!) It delivers a quality service by ‘hand-picking’ fund advisers based on their skills, performance, risk strategy and investment style so in order to offer portfolios with optimum returns. It also assists clients in opening bank accounts anywhere in the world; favored jurisdictions currently are Singapore, Switzerland and Luxembourg.”

Whoever believes that the fabled snobbish dynasty is a “class act” and not a bunch of money-laundering sleaze bags has drunk too many glasses of Mouton Rothschild. A Mauritius shipping company called Velogic was one of the African companies tapped by the Edmond de Rothschild’s $530 million Amethis investment fund. For those travelers in need of rest and relaxation, after hauling suitcases of black money, can find five-star beach adventures with Rothschild Safaris at the Mauritius Four Seasons resort.

Make no mistake, the Rothschild managers are not on holiday. The group’s investments in Africa are focused on the mining sector with share positions in major players including: Anglo American, Anglo Platinum and Anglo Coal of the Oppenheimer fortune and Xstrata-Glencore, founded by legendary Jewish South African tycoon Mick Davis.

Closer to India, the Rothschild Group also has a lock on the Maldives, the islands where locals spotted MH370 in descent toward Diego Garcia. Here is a news item from March 2010: “The Government of the Maldives and La Compagnie Benjamin de Rothschild (CTBR) have agreed a strategic partnership to take forward the country’s pledge to become carbon neutral by 2020, an e-mail announcement by the Maldivian Presidential Secretariat said. Under the agreement, CTBR will be mandated to secure international finance to fund a carbon footprint audit and master plan for Maldives.” Scams, Inc.

In the middle of this financial cyclone is idyllic rural La Reunion, and its Roland Garros Airport, named after a favorite son, the daring World War I pilot and namesake of the world-level tennis match, whose fame is now eclipsed by a Boeing flaperon.

Israel Was Birthed in Manchuria

For a few patient moments, a diversion from the MH affair is requested to learn about how the world’s wealthiest family became secretly allied with a Korean-Japanese Doomsday cult. While serving as editor of The Japan Times Weekly, I interviewed the personal secretary of Yosuke Matsuoka, wartime Japan’s foreign minister and top official in the puppet government of Manchukuo, an artificial state renowned for its Last Emperor, known as Puyi. The purpose of our visit was to inquire about Japan’s “Oscar Schindler”, the diplomat named Chiune Sugihara.

The aging secretary explained that Ambassador Sugihara did not act alone out of personal consideration for Jewish refugees, but that his issuance of travel papers to Jews from Poland and Lithuania was key part of the Japanese military regime’s war plans to establish a Greater East Asian Co-Prosperity Sphere extending from Indonesia to Palestine.

The smuggling of Jews out of German-held Europe was essential to a deal struck between Japan’s militarist authority and the World Jewish Congress based in Canada and New York. Leading Zionist leaders, including the Bronfman family, which controlled the Seagram’s fortunes; Roosevelt’s Treasury Secretary Hans Morgenthau; and the Rothschild dynasty sought Tokyo’s aid in the evacuation of Hassidic scholars from Lithuania as well as other Jewish assets from Europe. In exchange, the Zionist movement promised to keep America out of the war in event of a Japanese military assault against British possessions across Asia, a pledge that was repeatedly broken, precipitating the attack on Pearl Harbor.

Sugihara’s role as a spy has since been conclusively confirmed by a top Polish scholar, who studied his letters to the Free Polish Movement, which provided translators for his offices in Lithuania and later Berlin. So much for the Japanese Schindler myth, to the chagrin of American Jews who remain blissfully ignorant of their European and Canadian co-religionists’ partnership with Old World fascism.

A passageway was established through the Soviet Union, with Josef Stalin’s personal approval, based on his need to guarantee the truce with Japan. In complete secrecy, the passengers were sent via the Trans-Siberian Railway to the border post at Manchouli, Manchuria, where they were greeted by Japanese military liaison officers and then sent to Harbin, Shanghai or Kobe, Japan, to prepare for the planned assault against the Palestine Mandate.

The younger Jews of fighting age were trained in gunnery, explosives and false-flag tactics, before enlistment into Betar, a pro-fascist Jewish defense corps. The Japanese-mentored militiamen were instructed in the doctrines of Zeev Jabotinsky, the leader of Revisionist Zionism. The Revisionists opposed the liberal Haganah militia’s policy of gradualist cooperation with the British military in Palestine. The first armed terrorists supporting the creation of a State of Israel were sent to the Middle East from East Asian ports aboard neutral ships headed for Aden. In June 1941, six months before Pearl Harbor, right-wing Jewish terrorists launched their armed rebellion, their war of liberation and co-prosperity, against British policemen in Palestine.

In their typical hedge position of “playing both sides,” the Rothschilds offered the cooperation of the Haganah to the British, while supporting in secrecy the Japanese plans to established a temporary Israel in Manchuria. In the operation to smuggle Jews out of Europe, multilingual Korean subordinates of the Japanese military police performed a key role in dealing with Chinese, Manchurians, Mongols and Russians.

David Jang, who was born after the war, is a product of Japan’s fascist legacy in Korea. For his undergraduate degree, he attended Hanshin University, which was established in 1940 under the Japanese occupation. The school’s emblem is writ in Hebrew, indicating its affiliation with Turanism.

Readers familiar with Zecaria Sitchin will recognize the narrative. Turan theory asserts that the master race, the biological ruling class, began with the union of off-planet space travelers of exceeding intelligence and a benighted species of ape-like humans. Their mating resulted in a race of kings who eventually over the land of Sumeria after the liftoff of the departing “gods”. The Sumerians, it is claimed, did not belong to the Semitic racial line, as propagandized in Genesis, but were Turanians, like their offspring the powerful Akkadians and the fearsome Scythians.

Today, the Sukyo Mahikari sect is the only Japanese group that dares to discuss this mythology in private; their co-conspirators in the Unification Church remain tight-lipped about this dangerous ideology, even if their leaders pride themselves in their aristocratic equestrianism. The Rothschild clan had a fatal attraction to the Turanism theory that prevailed in Hungary and Austria, and which claimed the Turkik linguistic and racial commonality of Khazar Jews and the Japanese, along with the Hungarians, Finns, Koreans and Mongols, or those elites of the “horse-riding master race.” The Nazis were looked down upon as arrogant late-comers barely emerged out of forested barbarism.

While the Nazi Party bore the onus of World War II at the Nuremberg Tribunal, the adherents of Turan theory in Hungary, Romania and Turkey continued their battle against the victorious Soviet Union and China. The Turanian movement remains proud of the wartime Hungarian Parliament for its resolution to establish a clearly drawn “Hungarian-Japanese” border in the center of the Euro-Asian landmass. For anyone who can comprehend that Attilla the Hun, the Blue Turks and their Jewish-converted Khazar kinsmen, Genghis Khan and his Mongols, and the vast Hunnish Confederation once dominated the interior, this geopolitical vision is no joking matter. It is serious madness.

Absurd at it may seem today, an American publication founded in 1933 is controlled by anti-democratic lunatics with the Rothschild dynasty and neo-fascist Korean evangelicals. Now back to the flight of MH370.

Micro-Robot Warfare

Benjamin Rothschild owns the Edmond de Rothschild company and is a board member of the Paris-based Rothschild Group. The latter group is the principle investor in the Israeli Advanced Technology Industries (IATI), whose member-companies develop microchip production systems for military systems in partnership with the Israel Defense Forces (IDF).

Mini-robotic weapons-delivery systems, self-guided by artificial intelligence (AI), have been the top priority for Israeli weapons designers. Hordes of these tiny robots, as small as dragonflies, are able to pass undetected through radar and other security systems to reconnoiter and attack enemy command-and-control bunkers and switching stations, hack off-line computers and plant lethal viruses. The IDF has already predicted the soon-to-arrive robot capability, under the field command of Shaldag, to attack Hamas tunnel networks and the Iranian nuclear complex.

On the night of its midair capture, MH370 was transporting the complete technology set - chip foundry, software and 20 design engineers - from Freescale Semiconductors, the inventor of the KL-01 and KL-02 chips, the world’s smallest microprocessor built for AI-piloted mini-robotics. The designation KL stands for Freescale’s Kuala Lumpur lab.

MidAir Capture and the First Flight Turn

This writer has so far withheld key information on the MH370 in good faith and with the vain hope that the Israelis and the U.S. government might reconsider their folly and abide by international laws against piracy and comply with the right of freedom of passage. Ample time for remorse and recompense has long passed, and now with this new offense against civilized behavior in the Reunion caper, these details can no longer be held back.

The MH hijacking occurred on the night of March 8, 2014. Only three weeks earlier, Israeli Aircraft Industries (IAI) unveiled its Super Heron HF drone aircraft at the Singapore Airshow. The long-range surveillance drone can stay aloft for 46 hours at altitudes of over 30,000 feet with a suite of electronic-warfare gear.

Following the air show at the Israeli-allied city-state, the Heron drone was transferred to Vietnam for test flights at the Vung Tau military helicopter base, which monitors naval activity in the nearby Spratley Islands. On the night of MH370’s passage, two unexpected events occurred in that airspace.

First, an unidentifiable small jet aircraft tailed and then flew parallel with the Malaysian airliner in order to identify MH370 through its video lenses and then establish an electronic signals link with the Boeing’s cockpit computer. The jolt of a sudden link-up threw MH370 into an erratic climb followed by a sharp descent, ending in a controlled turn toward the west. The electronic signal was then uplinked from the drone to an Israeli satellite overhead, which took over remote control. Anyone who has flown a mini-drone can readily follow the steps in this operation. In IDF jargon, midair hijacking is a part of “network-centric warfare operations”, which involve the ELW-2000-plus series of inter-operational data transmission and commands between the aircraft and satellite. Distance-pilots in a faraway satellite-monitoring station can thereby fly the captured aircraft with a cockpit simulator.

The sudden climb and nose-dive of MH370 was picked up by a Vietnamese military radar unit at Phu Quoc Island (Kho Tral in Khmer), just offshore from the Cambodian naval port of Riem. From its “civilian” runway, Sukhoi jets were scrambled to the presumed crash site but no signs of wreckage could be spotted.

While MH370 proceeded westward, steered by satellite remote control, the Heron drone had to speed back to its base at Vung Tau, and took an eastward-to-northward arc to disguise its movement from Vietnamese radar operators because its stealth outline would become slightly visible as it flew closer toward land.

Fireball over the Spratleys

The second event of the night involved an unidentified naval ship, passing through the Spratleys. Its air-defense radar spotted the low-flying drone descending straight toward it. The radar operators easily confused the incoming blips for an anti-ship cruise missile, and the captain opened fire with radar-guided rapid cannon volleys into the darkness of night. The drone, its fuel tank still relatively full from extra loading for the secret mission, caught fire. The fireball crashed into the sea, leaving an oil slick.

The Heron drone is the aerial vehicle seen by the foreign oil-rig worker on an Idemitsu-Japan pil rig off the coast of Vung Tau. His account of an explosion and fireball crashing into the sea was accurate, but the object happened to be a drone not MH370.

Vietnam has remained mum about this disturbing series of events because of its quiet defense pact with Israel, which has traditionally been an arms supplier to rival China. Since 2011, the IDF and IAI have been ramping up Vietnam’s air, air-defense and naval weapons systems, with the transfer of radar units, missiles, avionics (electronic systems for aircraft) and surveillance drones. These transfers enabled Israel to gain permission to base its surveillance drones at Vung Tau. The effort to win the confidence of Vietnamese officials took three years in the making, a time-span that means Israeli intelligence had been monitoring Freescale operations in Kuala Lumpur and Fort Worth, Texas, for even longer. The hijacking of the century requires professionalism, patience, planning, deception and chutzpah, along with hasty reactions when things go awry.

Murder in Diego Garcia

MH370 was guided to the U.S. military-controlled Diego Garcia island in the Chagos group south of the Maldives, where it was spotted by local boatmen. As it entered military airspace, the airliner was escorted by U.S. Air Force jets, according to a text message from the American security expert, who was the only passenger to awake from sleeping gas inside the cabin. (Defense Intelligence agents are trained to resist drugs during torture.) Permission for the landing was granted after the Israelis claimed that two passengers were Iranian terrorists, a clever ruse since the Iranians were asylum-seekers who purchased stolen passport from Israeli criminals based in Thailand. The “terrorists” were handed over to interrogators with the American garrison on the island.

The “foreign military personnel”, as the American security agent described the hijackers, took the blindfolded passengers on buses to an abandoned NSA-NASA satellite relay station in the isolated corner of the ring-shaped island opposite the military base. The American was spotted trying to organize resistance, and was locked inside the nearby satellite-dish maintenance shed, from where he sent his last SMS message and a photo to his fiancee, a businesswoman connected with the U.S. Commerce Department office in Beijing.

When the Shaldag special operations troops concluded that the resistant American was a U.S. Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) security expert, who had used IBM Malaysia as cover for his assignment of protecting the Freescale group, apparently killed him. While debriefing the two Iranians, the U.S. garrison give clearance to the Israelis to fly the Malaysian plane to western Australia, where the passengers and crew members could be debriefed by ASIS and CIA officers to maintain continuity in the cover story or official scenario.

The remaining passengers were re-boarded. and Israeli air force pilots then flew the refueled Malaysian plane toward the ally-agreed destination in Perth, western Australia. Then, the U.S. Embassy, State Department and Pentagon learned of the detention of the DIA agent from the Beijing-based fiancee. The Pentagon issued an emergency order preventing anybody on Diego Garcia, military personnel or civilians, to leave the island. During the lockdown, DIA crews combed the area for the body of their colleague, which was never found probably because it was removed inside an Israeli Dolphin submarine and buried at sea.

Demons of Dimona

Once again MH took a dive, this time on purpose, to fake a fatal accident. That nose-dive was the false radar reading that led to the futile yearlong search for the wreckage. The Israeli pilots instead steered the plane toward and up the Red Sea into the Gulf of Aqaba. There are in Israel only three 4,000-meter runways capable of a bif Boeing 777 landing: Eilat on the Gulf of Aqaba, Ben-Gurion Tel Aviv, and Nevatim Air Base in the Negev Desert.

Nevatim Air Base was purpose-built for nuclear warfare with extra-large underground hardened bunkers, which are called “Belgrades” after the big hangers built by Serbian engineers in Saddam Hussein’s Iraq. This same air base served as the hub for F-16 airstrikes against Gaza.

The prisoners were off-loaded there at an airfield, which is near the Dimona nuclear facility For years, plutonium extraction had to be suspended at Dimona due to a lack of human labor to remove the tons of high-level radioactive waste from its facilities. Presumably, the labor shortage was solved with the arrival of a workforce aboard MH370.

The Freescale engineers are without doubt still alive and well, being valuable assets for the IDF robotics program, which has made astonishingly rapid progress over the past 17 months. The butterfly-shaped mini-robots are a wonder to behold, fluttering like living creatures inside the narrowest indoor spaces, and so it seems such a waste that these dazzling prototypes of mimicry will be destroyed by blast waves and radioactivity inside Iran’s underground nuclear complex.

Attack of the Machines

Israel is inching closer to the much-anticipated attacks against Hamas and, of course, Iran’s nuclear reactors. Benjamin Netanyahu’s stern denunciation of the Iranian nuclear deal is a signal for the coming assault. The movie Antman is a reference to the emerging era of military miniaturization and the decisive step beyond human-programmed automation to flexible war-making by artificial intelligence.

As for the many accusations against politicians, related to their corruption and moral dilemmas in this sordid hijacking affair, these are of little concern to this writer, whose primary preoccupation is with the science and technology behind news events. Crooks should be arrested, no matter what high positions they hold, or we suffer the vices of a lawless society. Meanwhile, miniaturized warfare is drawing closer by the hour, and this will have lasting consequences once the Gollum with artificial intelligence is unloosed on this planet in a killing spree against humans. The Clone Wars and the Terminator series are no longer science fiction, the Rise of the Machines has already starting. The only burning question relevant today is: When will the human resistance begin?
