Before signing off before
the onset of a turbulent 2018, I note in passing one of this past year’s
more noxious items of fake news, which deserves to be doused with a hose-down
of cold reality. That is the patently absurd theory of a “Blue Laser”
weapon mounted on a U.S. military aircraft causing the catastrophic firestorms
in California and Pacific Northwest. If only it had been so well-organized
by the deep state, because the actual cause, of radioactive fallout mostly
from the Fukushima reactor meltdowns floating in the atmosphere or lodged
in the western forestland, is far tougher and more dangerous to handle
than any time-traveling Skynet weaponry out of “Terminator Salvation”.
One example of the sinister campaign of irrational
fear-mongering via YouTube are video posts by the aplaintruth.info
website sponsored by the Pentecostal Church of God in Salem, Oregon,
along with posts at other noxious websites and blogs. The absurd
claim from the cult is that firefighting aircraft are actually
disguised military planes covertly deployed to set fire to homes
with “directed energy weapons” (DEW). Of course, it makes zero sense
that a cash-strapped Pentagon would torch its tax base in America’s
richest states, but then what does common sense mean to crazed
cultists?
The video hysterics are obviously part of a psychological
warfare campaign against shocked homeowners, depressed survivors who
lost loved ones to the blaze, and mortgage holders whose insurance
claims can nowhere near match the cost of rebuilding within proven
wildfire zones.
These online psy-ops are designed to spread disinformation,
promote paranoia and induce mental illness, all to confuse and
divert the public from taking legal action to redress the source of
their insurmountable losses, which is of course the corrupt
coalition of real-estate developers, mortgage lenders, insurance
companies, the nuclear industry, and state and federal governments,
which have all denied the catastrophic impact of radioactive
releases from Fukushima and the grave threat to human survival and
the environment, especially throughout North America.
Then there are those online posts perversely displayed for the
notoriety that comes from trolling innocent victims. Many of the
bogus videos are from the same ilk of sociopath sadists who assert,
in despicable defiance of the testimony and other evidence of a
well-organized paramilitary attack on the Strip, that nobody was
killed in a Las Vegas stunt staged by “crisis actors”. This sort of
lunatic should tracked down for dispatch in a straitjacket to the
nearest cuckoo’s nest.
Down the Rabbit Hole
The most notorious of the fake-news videos makes propagandist
use of the date “911” to describe the West Coast fires. This attempt
to equate the firestorms with the WTC sabotage is misleading and
grossly inappropriate in relation to the threat from reactor
meltdowns.
For starters, the date is off by months. The first Level 5
blazes in California started on August 10, and cluster fires in
British Columbia, Canada, began much earlier in the spring season.
The devastating Tubbs fire in Santa Rosa broke out on October 8.
September 11, 2017, was just another hot and frustrating day for the
hardy firefighters, forest rangers and water-lifting pilots trying
to halt the spreading walls of flame.
The bogus “proof” of aerial-warfare arson presented was a
brief smartphone video of a “blue laser” beam, supposedly fired down
by a military plane out to incinerate homes and business on a dark
night.
One astute skeptic, however, destroyed this contrived argument
by zooming in on the image and slowing down two telltale video
frames to reveal that the supposed “laser beam” was actually the
flash of a phone-camera for a selfie taken by one of the bystanders
watching a fire. This discovery completely debunked the
scare-mongers, showing them to be monstrous liars.
Why, as raised in some comments, does the light from the
camera flash appear as a straight line, which looks like it was
beamed down from the sky? The answer comes from basic optics: The
video was shot at nighttime, in a low-lighting situation, back-lit
with flames, and therefore the auto exposure could not adjust for a
quick burst of light intensity that immediately faded. A camera
lens, unlike the iris of the human eye, is made of flat glass, and
in a high-contrast situation like this renders the image as a
vertical streak, surrounded by a dimmer white glow.
What then accounts to its tinge of blue? Light from a flash
bulb, which appears to the naked eye as being pure white,
technically borders into the “cold” blue band of the visible
spectrum. Here, the electronic lens detects fine differences in hues
more accurately than the eye. The shade of blue from the flash is
not within the same spectral range as a blue laser, which verges
onto the violet end of the visible spectrum and even into the partly
visible ultraviolet (UV) band, a different shade of blue altogether.
Another reason for why it cannot possibly be a weaponized beam
is that blue lasers are used in Blu-ray DVD scanners and hand-held
projectors/pointers precisely because of the sharp precision in the
cool range of the spectrum as opposed to blurrier red on the
opposite hotter end of the color scale. Red lasers are used for
focused-heat weapons, for example, to explode missiles or planes in
flight as happened to TWA 800 in 1996.
Red Eye
The blue laser claim was definitively debunked, thanks to an
observant skeptic. The next misrepresentation, a photo supposedly
taken from a helicopter, claiming to show a disguised military plane
firing a laser beam to trigger fires below. The beam, however, is
red not blue. How does a red laser turn blue at ground level? A
color switch is simply impossible, since a laser is not a chameleon.
Another tech point here is that a weaponized red laser fires
in millisecond bursts for a high-energy pulse, whereas the plane was
shining the red beam continuously like a spotlight. What could be
its purpose? The short answer is remote sensing or ground
observation.
An infrared laser can penetrate through clouds and fog, and
the reflection from the ground will bounce back to the sensor aboard
the plane to provide a surprisingly clear image of landscape
features, which can then be computer-processed into roughly original
colors or filtered to highlight various aspects such as bodies of
water, forest coverage, types of buildings, vehicles on roads and so
on.
Therefore, the red laser on any spotter plane is used to
determine the forward speed and direction of forest fires, in spite
of the visual obscurity caused by clouds, smoke and dust. (Burning
trees and underbrush emit a lot of water as steam.) There’s a
noticeable difference between a lethal weapon and a live-saving
tool, especially if your family and home depends on it.
Real-world Experience Counts
How can I be so certain about these technical and scientific
issues? This is not to brag, since experimentation did not result in
wealth or fame for myself as co-director with colleague Cliff Parker
of a media project researching the capabilities and potential of
digital videocams at nighttime outdoors without the aid of
artificial lighting. That project was called “Nachtvizion”, which
produced the first 30-minute documentary shot solely with small
digital handycams, during two years in the Himalayas and titled
“Flight of the Karmapa” (released 2002).
My cooperation with environmental scientists involved in
remote sensing in the Altai mountains was also informative. Another
source of knowledge was the research for my 2003 articles on how a
powerful Israeli-designed laser operated by astronaut Ilan Ramon was
used to generate water spouts off Cyprus (in tandem with the UK
navy’s Royal Ark carrier) and for spying through dust storms on
Saddam Hussein’s mobile Scud missile batteries.
A summary of those articles appeared at rense.com in 2013 on
the 10th anniversary of the Space Shuttle Columbia disaster, the
cause of which can be traced to a laser-gun anti-missile test done
on re-entry off the California coast against a rising rocket over
the White Sands test ground in New Mexico. The power supply, an
americium-242 nuclear-isotope generator, overheated and blew apart
the shuttle’s fuel tank and oxygen supply, breaking apart the
spacecraft and killing all astronauts aboard. That lethal tech was
the prototype for infrared surveillance technology and laser
weaponry. (see: rense.com/general95/anti-missle-test.htm) If laser
weapons are ever deployed against the United States, these will be
directed against military targets and not wasted on your backyard
doghouse.
Libel against National Security
The perpetrators of the false laser claim owe a retraction
with an apology to wildfire victims, firefighting pilots, and also
the Joint Chiefs of Staff for wrongly accusing the U.S. armed forces
and Forest Service, when the culprit in this horrific chain of
events is TEPCO and the Japanese government of Shinzo Abe.It's not
Smokey the Bear's fault.
Next question: Why in many cases did isolated buildings, at
long distance from raging forest fires, suddenly burst into flames
and weree quickly reduced to ashes, while nearby trees and lawns in
many cases, although not all, remained untouched by flames?
Pale Fire
My pair of articles at rense.com (September 9 and 17) analyzed
the causal factors and potential consequences of the Fukushima
radioactivity-carrying jet stream on the weather system over North
America. One of those related disasters was the electromagnetic
triggering of the Chiapas-Mexico City earthquake.
Smoke and vapor from West Coast forest fires were pinpointed
in those articles as a massive threat, lifting radioactivity into
the skies, thereby magnifying the scale of lightning strikes,
especially across California. That prediction has proven to be
accurate to a tee. In large quantity, free-floating radioactive
isotopes have the capability of generating lightning and triggering
earthquakes along with many bizarre atmospheric effects.
An Observant Skeptic
In another YouTube post, a male eyewitness described in detail
the start of a firestorm, accompanied by video clips shot on the
same night in Santa Rosa. He spotted the incoming storm by the
sudden gusting of strong winds, “blue sparks”, snowfall, and then a
large glowing sphere of whitish light. The video clip clearly showed
the wind-driven snow and a pulsating luminous sphere just above the
horizon, whereas the blue sparks were too dim to be captured on
video.
These strange weather effects, when linked to Fukushima
radioactivity, lose their ghostly mystique and become
comprehensible. Since these phenomena and processes are quite
unfamiliar to most people, especially newcomers as compared with my
nearly seven years of research and writings on Fukushima
mega-effects on geophysical systems, here is a step-by-step
interpretation of what the witness saw.
First, sudden wind: The storm arrived in darkness on a night
absent of “normal” bright lightning bolts. The incendiary source
that could not be detected by the human eye is “dark lightning”, an
electromagnetic surge caused by protons and electrons rushing away
from their broken bonds with a surge of energy. This flow of
subatomic particles and electromagnetic waves was caused by nuclear
collisions due to water condensation during a sudden fall of
temperature in the atmosphere. The resulting downdraft of cold air
in the jetstream resulted in pockets of strong wind at ground level.
Next, “blue sparks”: The condensed moisture jammed together
radioactive isotopes, causing collisions that ripped apart electrons
and protons, which then shot out at high velocity. Passing through
the water particles or mist, the fast-moving protons (moving
straighter and therefore relatively faster than the bent paths of
photons of light in a watery medium) emitted eerie bluish
scintillation, known as the Chernenkov effect, as seen inside
nuclear reactors and which appeared after the explosion of Reactor 3
at Fukushima on March 14, 2011.
Then, turbulent snowfall: The massive absorption of heat from
the surrounding atmosphere occurred when the mini-nuclear reactions
released gamma and beta radiation along with microwaves. The sudden
drop in temperature, due to high energy releases, caused the mist to
further condense, freezing water droplets into snow crystals.
Crescendo: Much of the electromagnetic energy, including
microwaves bursts and radioactive isotopes, was attracted by the
electrical power systems and metal inside built structures, causing
short circuits and gas explosions that triggered intense fires
inside houses and shops, with smoke rising in heat columns, which
then caused an interior vacuum that imploded the structures.
Vehicles were also affected, most noticeably windshields, when the
polyvinyl butyral (PVB) adhesive plastic bubbled, gasified and
super-heated the glass sandwich to the melting point.
Finally, an orb of luminescence floating above the near
horizon: The glowing ball was created by beta rays escaping tritium
(radioactive heavy water molecules in which the hydrogen atoms
contain two added neutrons from nuclear bombardment). The beta
radiation passing through the mist caused the faint silvery white
glow, strangely beautiful although deadly.
Residues: Trees and other vegetation, along with humans and
other animals, lacked sufficient electrical current to compete with
buildings in attracting streams of dark lightning, microwaves and
miscellaneous radioactive particles, and so most bodies did not
burst into flames. There is no trace of those that did, however,
inside cars or houses
Health Impact: Every person in the vicinity of dark lightning
during the firestorms has been shot through with radioactivity in
amounts equal to adsorption limits over a lifetime. In addition,
months of inhalation of isotope-contaminated soot from the fires
drastically increased the probability of lung cancer. Given the
massive dosages, many of those with heart problems or cancer can
expected to die sooner than later, while younger people will suffer
serious cancers and immune-system collapse over shortened
life-spans.
After Fukushima, I often presented information on treating
these sorts of health threats and can now only hope that
Californians took notes on those proven treatment methods.Most of
the people that I treated and temporary saved in Fukushima have
since died, making me wonder about the value of such mercy work,
when nearly all people show no appreciation or charity to others,
never learning from their own brush with death.
Miserable End for a Failed Species
Now for the conclusion: Based on field observations of
kill-offs, less than a handful of honest field researchers active
since Fukushima, including myself and Dana Dunford in Canada, have
sternly warned about the probability for a relentless series of
disasters leading toward global extinction of life on Earth. Every
government in the UN has either opposed or ignored the findings from
our difficult and risky research. The overwhelming majority prefer
sweet lies rather than hard facts, so choice is a major factor in
survival, not just of individuals but of entire communities.
While it is commendable that San Onofre and Diablo Canyon were
scheduled for shutdown, Gov. Jerry Brown has wasted the state’s
diminishing resources and staff hours on reducing carbon dioxide (a
minor problem by comparison which will fix itself when we are all
dead and gone) instead of developing strategies and immediate
responses to the ongoing nuclear disaster and public health
emergency and civil defense preparedness.
Worse of all, the online trolls who concoct and spread
unscientific disinformatio, are criminal accomplices to mass murder
and should be dealt with as such. Since the start of the Fukushima
crisis, I have stated that governments and community leaders, along
with investors and regulators of the nuclear industry, are complicit
in guilt and will have to face summary tribunals when the human
species plummets into a terminal die-off.
Even if it is by now due to inaction and lack of serious
concern too late for salvation, justice should outlive us and be
recorded as warning to whatever the next remotely intelligence
species that might someday inherit a degraded planet or merely make
a brief stopover to examine the wobble of a dead rock that was once
the living Earth.
Humankind has utterly failed as stewards of the natural world,
and as can be seen in the western firestorms, are now reaping the
whirlwind that their nuclear ovens have sown. When the Garden of
Eden was lost, humans were expelled from paradise; now as Earth
dies, there is no escape for our breed that was given everything and
lost it all through brute stupidity, selfish greed and moral
disgrace. The angels shed no tears but will only breathe a sigh of
relief when utterly sinful humans have joined the dinosaurs, which
by contrast did not deserve their fate.
