FARMING OUT BIOWARFARE

Every now and then a few people send me an article that, while not necessarily making it to the top of the basket in terms of the number of people sending the story, nevertheless has to be talked about if for no other reason than it is either so bizarre, or so sensational, that not to do so would be a kind of moral dereliction. This is such a story, and my thanks to those of you who drew my attention to it. And as usual, I have my own high octane speculations.  The story itself is quite long, with plenty of pictures, so I will try to keep my own commentary and speculations to a minimum.

The USA, it seems, is "farming out" its biowarfare:

US Diplomats Involved In Trafficking Of Human Blood And Pathogens For Secret Military Program

Now as one who has always believed that GMOs represented a kind of "soft" biowarfare, this one really piqued my curiosity: Why Georgia? There is, I suppose, a kind of macabre irony here, in that Georgia is of course the home to a couple of nefarious individuals, one Iosif Visarionovich Djugashvili, aka Josif Stalin, and his comrade in terror, Sergo Ordzhonikidze. But beyond the strangeness of that, why Georgia? Why pick that for a biowarfare laboratory?

Here I'm indulging in some real high octane speculation. Biowarfare research is conducted by most of the world's major powers, so it comes as no surprise that the USA is doing it. But why do it in Georgia? I cannot help but to think that beyond the desire perhaps to hide it from "prying eyes" that there may be a more practical reason, that perhaps actual preparations are underway for a deployment, if  not use, of weapons.

A glance at the region shows why: Georgia is conveniently close to Turkey, Syria, Iran, and, of course, southern Russia, the Black Sea, and the Crimean peninsula, all countries which have been at the forefront of American foreign policy "concerns" lately. It is, so to speak, a convenient distribution point for the region. And if one is carrying pathogens in and out of the facilities there, as the article alleges, then it is easy to assume similar methods might be employed to distribute its product.

With the rash of recent stories lately about biowarfare - not the least of which is the Skripal case - onee does indeed  wonder if there might bee a connection. And there's another disturbing possibility that emerges: like an covert operation, it's a game that two can play...

MORE ON THE SUNSPOT OBSERVATORY CLOSURE, PART TWO

Yesterday I updated the Sunspot, New Mexico observatory closure with some more articles, all of which are questioning the emergent child pornography  narrative. As I mentioned yesterday, I'm not entirely dismissive of that story, and I hope to clarify today why I am not, and why I still think that the child pornography story is a cover story. Basically, I strongly suspect that the child porn story is a cover story, a convenient "crisis of opportunity" that allowed the raid to occur. My basic theory has been that the observatory's communications network was "piggy-backed" by another entity in some sort of private or covert communications network. Certainly, if the child porn story is true, this might have formed one component of a communications network in a network of such activity - child sex slavery, organ harvesting and so on - that by any accounts appears to be a global phenomenon. The global extent of the activities in turn requires a global communications capability of a covert nature. Additionally, under President Trump's Executive Order of December of 2017, such activities are defined as a national security threat, and as a consequence, the FBI's otherwise strange involvement in this case would be understandable. The contraindication here is that the FBI hasn't exactly appeared to be on the "side" of Mr. Trump in recent months.

The problem with the child porn story is that it does not explain other problems in the "coincident data set" surrounding the event; for example, it does not explain the nearly simultaneous shutdown of the live camera feeds from other solar observatories around the world. This has led to speculation that the whole affair was created as a distraction in order to take down those camera feeds because something was going on either near, or on, the Sun, that "they" didn't want to be seen. This view was fueled by videos making the rounds on YouTube and the internet showing alleged UFO activity around the Sun. While I remain skeptical of these videos, the basic thrust of the argument - that they were concealing something entirely different - cannot be entirely discounted. As one person put it to me, NASA currently has a solar probe near the Sun, and solar observatories would possibly be involved in its observation and coordination. Such a view does also explain the curious and alleged signing of non-disclosure agreements and the payments of cash - hush money - to individuals, as reported by Linda Moulton Howe.

Yet a third theory was that the closure may have been related to espionage that was being conducted from the observatory, which has a line-of-sight view of the White Sands range. Again, if true, the signing of non-disclosure agreements, and the paying of "hush-money" are easily rationalized in such a context.

Yet another problem emerges when one considers the reaction of the Otero County Sheriff to the whole affair, who is mystified at the FBI's behavior. In some versions of the story, the inhabitants of Sunspot were the ones who asked for local law enforcement to be present during the evacuation. The reason this may be significant is that part of the explanation for the total evacuation is that it was necessary to do so in order (1) not to alert the suspect and (2) to ensure the safety of the village inhabitants. So why would the inhabitants request the presence of local law enforcement to keep them safe if the FBI is already on the spot? In other words, the request suggests and implies that something about the FBI's presence made them feel unsafe. So let's continue crawling out to the end of the twig of speculation here: what if the presence of federal officials was not to take down a piggy-backed communications network, but rather, to remove one component using it (the child porn story), while ensuring the rest of it remained operative? What if, in other words, the raid was about protecting something, rather than shutting it down? Possible, but that too, has its problems on closer examination.

There is a further problem here with all explanations, both the official one, and the various alternative theories, and that is, none of them adequately account for the closure of the local post office. How does a local post office closure relate to a child porn story piggy-backing on the observatory communications? It doesn't, save for the "explanation" that "everyone" had to be evacuated lest the "suspect be alerted", which is part of the emergent official narrative. The problem with that narrative all along has been the whole FBI raid itself: suddenly showing up with a Blackhawk helicopter, and agents, is going to alert the suspect, unless he or she was a complete dunce. The only explanation I can find here that makes any sense is that perhaps the post office formed a link in that piggy-backed communications network of the "old fashioned dead drop" kind.

The one thing that has emerged from this whole affair, at least to my mind, is that all potential explanations, from the official one to the various theories out there, is that they all have one peculiar thing in common, and that is the idea of piggy-backed communications. It's the one aspect of this story that simply won't go away, whether or not one does subscribe to the official story. Beyond the strangeness of the observatory itself - which I highlighted in our members' vidchat two weeks ago - the piggy-backed covert communications hypothesis is the one that still makes the most sense to me, and thus, I continue to think there are more layers to this story than are being publicly admitted.

CONCERNED ABOUT CERN? DON’T WORRY, THEY MAY BE THROWING OUT ...

Now, some of you may read the article that is the subject of today's high octane speculation, and not get why I'm blogging about it at all, because it's one of those "no story here, nothing to see, move along" sorts of things. But if you're in the "Concerned about CERN" category like I am, this story does, in its own roundabout way, at least open up the possibility that my high octane speculations about the place might have a minimally larger chance of being true. We'll get back to that.

But here's the article that caught Mr. G.K.'s eye, and I suspect that he may have been thinking the same thing as I when he read it:

Has The Large Hadron Collider Accidentally Thrown Away The Evidence For New Physics?

The subtitle here says it all: "The nightmare scenario of no new particles or interactions at the LHC is coming true. And it might be our own fault."  Well, I'm not a scientist, and especially not a particle physicist or quantum...uhm...er... mechanic, so when the United Federation of Physicists boldly goes where no one has gone before, seeking out new particles and new equations to add to its already bloated and overstuffed particle pantheon, I for one breathe a sigh of relief, because it is becoming downright difficult to keep track of quarks and charms and colors and flavors.

But what's going on here is a bit more serious, because having spent billions of dollars and euros and so on to smash this stuff together and see what detritus pops out, the result is that nothing new is popping out, and that's after a few years of whirling stuff around and crashing it together (do you have the sense that physics is running in a circle here? I do):

Earlier this month, the LHC celebrated 10 years of operation, with the discovery of the Higgs boson marking its crowning achievement. Yet despite these successes, no new particles, interactions, decays, or fundamental physics has been found. Worst of all is this: most of CERN’s data from the LHC has been discarded forever.

This is one of the least well-understood pieces of the high-energy physics puzzle, at least among the general public. The LHC hasn’t just lost most of its data: it’s lost a whopping 99.997% of it. That’s right; out of every one million collisions that occurs at the LHC, only about 30 of them have all of their data written down and recorded.

It’s something that happened out of necessity, due to the limitations imposed by the laws of nature themselves, as well as what technology can presently do. But in making that decision, there’s a tremendous fear made all the more palpable by the fact that, other than the much-anticipated Higgs, nothing new has been discovered. The fear is this: that there is new physics waiting to be discovered, but we’ve missed it by throwing this data away. (Emphasis added)

Most of the rest of the article is about why they have to throw away so much data, and it comes down to this: (1) there's more data than we can store; and (2) our computers aren't fast enough to grab all of it and (3) we don't have the space to store everything we can grab.

Ok, there's nothing new here; we all knew that CERN has computers designed to "pull" certain interesting collisions and pass them along for scientists to look at. I talked about this at some length in my book The Third Way.

But what I also speculated about in that book was that I thought CERN was (1) about more than just particle physics, and that there was a "hyper-dimensional" physics possibly involved beyond that normally associated with particle physics, and (2) the computer system could conceal hidden algorithms to pull highly anomalous results and send them to secret committees for analysis an review. In other words, some data was not being thrown out, it was being kept secret. Shortly after that book came out, there were statements from some scientists at CERN that they were, indeed, looking for signs of hyper-dimensional physics, although it wasn't too clear (at least to me), in those first announcements whether they meant the sort of hyper-dimensional stuff normally associated with particle physics, or the hyper-dimensional physics of, say, electrical engineer Gabriel Kron. Indeed, I pointed out in that book that, as far as Kron was concerned, any electrical circuit, no matter how simple, was a hyper-dimensional machine (since the math to describe it is such), and hence, a complex system like CERN's colliders fits a Kronian description in spades.

I wasn't, therefore, very surprised when these admissions were made.

But I am a bit surprised now, reading this article, for my other "high octane speculation" about CERN seems to be occurring to other people in a kind of backhanded way: namely, that a "new physics" might lie in the data that's being thrown away. To my always unreliable memory, this is the first popular mention I've seen connecting that "rejected data" to the idea of "new physics," and this is a short step away from my own speculation that that "rejected" data might actually be data that has a "second pass" of the computer algorithms, pulling the high anomalous stuff, and passing it along to much more secret committees to look at. I've thought all along that CERN is not the altruistic production of "pure science", but that the sheer expenditure indicates some possibly hidden military purpose.  The sheer expense of it, and the dangerous implications of such a potential discovery, would seem to me to have required the presence of a hidden layer in those algorithms. Given the sheer complexity of the project, it would be all too easy to sneak those algorithms into the millions of lines of code, and many of the international partners in the project would be none the wiser, and hence, be telling the truth when they say it's about particle physics, because that's all they know about it. If this high octane speculation be true, then not all that "rejected data" may have been rejected...

...it was just siphoned off and shunted to some secret places.

SOUND VERSUS CANCER? SHADES OF ROYAL RIFE

Ms. C.M. found this unusual story, and I thought I'd pass it along with some additional observations. It seems that Chinese medical scientists have been experimenting with High Frequency Ultrasound as a treatment against cancer:

Scientists have discovered a way to destroy cancer tumors using nothing but sound waves

The results have been promising:

A recent breakthrough in high-intensity focused ultrasound therapy (HIFU) technology has proven its use as an effective cancer treatment. A multi-institutional research team from China developed a semi-enclosed, spherical cavity transducer that can produce a focused, standing-wave field with a subwavelength-scale focal region and extremely high ultrasound intensity. The spherical cavity transducer appeared to generate tighter focal regions and greater pressure amplitude compared with the traditional concave spherical transducer. Researchers said the level of intensity generated by the new transducer design may lead to significant improvements in HIFU therapy. The findings were published in the Journal of Applied Physics.

HIFU is a non-invasive, targeted treatment that makes use of sound waves to eradicate cancer cells. HIFU uses an ultrasonic transducer to convert electrical signals into sound waves, then concentrates ultrasound into a small focal region to raise the temperature to more than 65 decrees Celsius, thereby killing cancer cells in the process without inducing damage to surrounding tissues. The technique works in the same manner as focusing sunlight through a lens, which helps eliminate the disease-causing cells.

...

For instance, researchers at the University College Hospital in London examined 625 men with prostate cancer and found that 93 percent of patients who underwent HIFU alone remained cancer-free at five years following the treatment, without requiring surgery or radiotherapy. Data also showed that only one to two percent of patients who had HIFU treatment suffered long-term urinary incontinence, compared with 10 to 20 percent of patients who had surgery. In addition, only 15 percent of patients in the HIFU group developed erectile dysfunction compared with 30 to 60 percent of surgical patients. (Emphasis added)

As one might imagine, and as the title of this blog suggests, I couldn't help but think of the medical "industry's" (read, "Big Pharma's") assault on Dr. Royal Raymond Rife. Rife, for those unfamiliar with the story, was one of many early cancer researchers in the twentieth century who believed in the viral theory of cancer. To this end, he invented a microscope which, he claimed, was able to see viruses without killing them, unlike an electron microscope. Using this invention, he claimed to have experimented using different sound waves to find the right frequencies for various viruses which he claimed caused sarcomas and carcinomas. These frequencies killed the cells, and, predictably, Rife's clinic was swamped with customers...

...until, that is, he was shut down, his microscope stolen (and, by the way, never seen again), and Rife was denied his medical license. The principal cause for shutting him down, was his claim for his microscope, which according to standard physical laws, could not claim the optical resolution Rife was claiming for it.The microscope he also claimed had to be "tuned", suggesting it was itself sonically based. I've written before, years ago, about this problem in the Rife story, and about Lt. Col. Tom Bearden's unique speculation on what Rife was really attempting to do with his microscope. But in any case, Rife was denounced as a fraud, and his clinic shut down. It was, if one wishes to be blunt about it, a case of "our theory says your microscope can't work, therefore it doesn't work, therefore all your claims based upon that machine are fraudulent." True enough, since Rife's ignominious end, lots of fakery and quackery have percolated with supposed "Rife healing machines," all of which ignore the crucial component of his whole claim: the microscope which he claimed enabled him to experimentally find the correct frequencies to kill various cancers.

But Rife's basic claim remained: various types of sound, modulated on carrier waves, could destroy cancer. Similar research, as readers of my recent book Microcosm and Medium will be aware, was also conducted in the Soviet Union in the 1960s and 1970s. And now, the old idea of sound curing or killing cancers has reared its head once again, and once again, apparently with some success.

If there's a lesson here, it's that this idea has been around for a very long time, and in essence, Dr. Rife's views were essentially confirmed (sans the microscope). That also means something truly depressing, for it also means that a cure or technique was suppressed for almost eighty years, while big pharma and big medicine cut, hacked, sawed, radiated, and chemo-ed people with cures almost as bad as the disease.

Watch for this technique to be tied up in decades of regulation, denial, questions, trials, and the other usual tactics, while the latest genetic modification of corn or soybeans sail through in a matter of weeks.

AURA FINALLY RELEASES A STATEMENT ABOUT THE OBSERVATORY CLOSING

Normally, I would post this article for Wednesday, but I have decided to post it today, as there has been a new development in the Sunspot observatory story.

AURA, the entity that runs the Richard Dunn solar observatory in Sunspot, New Mexico, has finally released a statement about the whole affair, and since I blogged Monday about this story, I'd be remiss not to pass along the statement and my thoughts about it.

Needless to say, the statement manages to use many words and to convey more or less nothing, so we're in more or less the same position we were before, except that there are additional details that put yet another twist into the whole affair. Here is AURA's statement "explaining" the whole episode:

AURA Statement about the Status of the Sunspot Solar Observatory at Sacramento Peak, New Mexico

On September 6th, the Association of Universities for Research in Astronomy (AURA) and the National Science Foundation (NSF) made the decision to temporarily vacate the Sunspot Solar Observatory at Sacramento Peak, New Mexico as a precautionary measure while addressing a security issue. The facility closed down in an orderly fashion and is now re-opening. The residents that vacated their homes will be returning to the site, and all employees will return to work this week.

AURA has been cooperating with an on-going law enforcement investigation of criminal activity that occurred at Sacramento Peak. During this time, we became concerned that a suspect in the investigation potentially posed a threat to the safety of local staff and residents. For this reason, AURA temporarily vacated the facility and ceased science activities at this location.

The decision to vacate was based on the logistical challenges associated with protecting personnel at such a remote location, and the need for expeditious response to the potential threat. AURA determined that moving the small number of on-site staff and residents off the mountain was the most prudent and effective action to ensure their safety.

In light of recent developments in the investigation, we have determined there is no risk to staff, and Sunspot Solar Observatory is transitioning back to regular operations as of September 17th. Given the significant amount of publicity the temporary closure has generated, and the consequent expectation of an unusual number of visitors to the site, we are temporarily engaging a security service while the facility returns to a normal working environment. (Emphasis added)

Note the following things:

1) The staff was evacuated due to "a security issue", which is more or less the story we heard at the outset. But then this is added:

2) There is an "on-going law enforcement investigation of criminal activity that occurred at Sacramento Peak," which "criminal activity" is not specified, but whatever it was "posed a threat to the safety of local staff and residents." Apparently, the threat was so extreme that everyone had to be evacuated, leaving their cars, their houses, and the entire facility, unattended for several days, to the extent that people could go into the site and videotape it, as I mentioned in my blog last Monday.

At this juncture, the explanation becomes, frankly, a bit bizarre:

3) AURA maintains that their decision to vacate the facility "was based on the logistical challenges associated with protecting personnel at such a remote location." Ok, I can buy that, but how then does one explain the final paragraph:

4) AURA states that "in light of recent developments in the investigation", of which developments we told precisely nothing, that there are now no risks to the staff, so they will be returning to normal work this week. But on top of this, we are informed that because of "the consequent expectation of an unusual number of visitors to the site" AURA will be temporarily engaging a security service while things "return to a normal working environment."

Now, all of this makes no sense to me, because for one thing, during the initial evacuation, both local law enforcement and the FBI were apparently involved. If they were involved, then that means it may have been possible for one or the other or both to maintain security on the site, allowing staff to continue to work. To my mind, it would not have been that difficult for the local sherrif and/or New Mexico state police to maintain at least a token presence on the site, if nothing else to keep out the curious (which becomes a factor in a moment). Yet, the threat was apparently so big that even this was not judged to be sufficient for the safety of the staff, hence the evacuation. But then, we are told that because of the expected influx of tourists (presumably), temporary security has now been engaged. What is noteworthy here is that the motivation of protecting the staff has been dropped from the explanation; the reason given for the hire of temporary security is precisely the influx of sight-seers, such as the gentleman and his son who entered the completely evacuated site, to take the video I referenced on Monday. In other words, this sounds more like they are concerned with what people might see or learn, rather than protecting the staff itself.

So AURA's explanation raises as many questions as it "answers." In fact, it answers nothing.

All of this suggests to me that my initial intuitive hypothesis that the observatory may have been used to piggy-back communications. But if so, how did that constitute a threat to the safety of the staff? Did someone on the staff discover this? Or is the piggy-backed communications hypothesis simply not true, and something else is involved? What sort of "criminal activity" may have been going on? What is interesting here is that on the occasion of the evacuation, one national radio talk show host (Glen Beck) broadcast earlier today that the staff of the facility had called local law enforcement, asking them to come to the facility when the FBI suddenly showed up. If true, then that would seem to indicate that some of the staff felt as threatened by the presence of the FBI, as from whatever other threat may have existed there. The Kansas City Star posted this story:

No aliens? Mysterious FBI closing of Sunspot solar observatory is finally explained

Note the statements from AURA here dovetail with that of AURA itself. There's this:

According to the newspaper, Benny House, the sheriff of Otero County, said the FBI was involved in what he described as an elaborate shutdown process and said “the FBI is refusing to tell us what’s going on.”

“There was a Blackhawk helicopter, a bunch of people around antennas and work crews on towers, but nobody would tell us anything,” House told the Daily News.

He told the Albuquerque Journal his department got a call from “folks that work at the laboratory” who asked “if we could send a deputy to stand by while they were evacuating. All the employees were packing up and leaving.”

...
Now, weigh that against this statement from AURA later in the article:

“However, our desire to provide additional information had to be balanced against the risk that, if spread at the time, the news would alert the suspect and impede the law enforcement investigation. That was a risk we could not take,” said the statement.

Now, as Mr. Beck pointed out in his broadcast earlier today (indeed, I am listening even as I'm composing this blog), this makes no sense, because we're being asked to believed that the "suspect" in the "on-going criminal investigation" would be alerted with the spread of the news of the evacuation. But wait a minute, isn't the presence of a blackhawk helicopter sort of difficult to hide and therefore "alerting the suspect"?
All of this leads me back to my "piggy-backed communications" hypothesis, and to a potential espionage caper.
And there's something else to take note of: have you noticed that throughout this developing story, the closure of the post office has curiously dropped off the radar? Granted, the post office is more or less on site, but I find it curious that no mention is made of it. My suspicion remains focused more on the piggy-backed communications hypothesis than the espionage hypothesis, though with the presence of White Sands within the line of sight of the observatory, the latter cannot be ruled out either.
That's it for the moment, folks, and remember, please view this story as tomorrow's (i.e., Wednesday's) blog, unless more breaking news occurs that will require another update tomorrow.

NASA ON THAT “FOREIGN OBJECT” ON MARS

This blog actually started off to be about something completely different than what it ended up being about. When Mr. S.D. sent the following article about NASA director Jim Bridenstine's remarks about going back to the Moon and "staying there" and wanting "lots more people in space," I thought this was a worthy topic for today's high octane speculation. Here's the article that Mr. S.D. passed along:

NASA chief wants to send humans to the Moon — ‘to stay’

But then I clicked a link within the article that led me to this story, and to the picture that begins it, a picture of something on the surface of Mars which, initially, NASA designated - no doubt with palpitating hearts and beads of sweat - as "foreign object": https://bgr.com/2018/08/17/mars-foreign-object-curiosity-inspection/

Here's the picture from that article, which I have performed  color, contrast, levels enhancements upon, with two arrows pointing to some very weird things. The arrow to the center and left of the picture is the "foreign object" apparently that NASA has now "explained" as being nothing but an unusually shaped rock, and the arrow to the upper right is "something else" that caught my eye. Here's the photo from the article, as I performed the above transforms:

What instantly pops out is that the object in question, via these transforms, appears to have a high, and almost metallic, albedo. More importantly, when I cropped that section of the photo, this property not only persists, but it appears to be relatively thin for a "rock", and is casting a definite shadow which tends to confirm its "thinness":

I don't know about you, but Never A Straight Answer's explanation that this is just a rock (subtext: "a trick of light and shadow") does not seem to this pair of eyes to be much of a rock. If it is a rock, why are its albedo properties so very different from all the other "rocks" surrounding it, and why is it so very much thinner than the other obvious rocks around it?

My conclusion: it's not a rock, and NASA is saying something ridiculous again, and knows it is saying something ridiculous (nod nod, wink wink).

But the other thing that caught my eye was "possible object number two" as I've designated it:

 

Now, granted, this strange thing looks both like ordinary fissures and cracks in a table-like rock on the surface, which it could very well be. But beneath the central "hole" (if it is a hole), one sees a rectangular yellowish "thing", and above the "hole" one sees two "fissures" at the end of which are two high albedo rocks. Or, one is looking at a "something", with a rectangular yellowish "something" underneath a central black "some other thing", with two black "leg-or-antennae-like things" at the end of which two "globe like things" of high albedo appear to be attached.

So we have a "something" on Mars which definitely looks to my eyes as something metallic, and a "possible other thing" with its own high weirdness. Given the context, my vote on the "second something" is that it's not a rock either.

But in this case, your eyes may see something(s) very different from mine, and thus this may all be a case of "you tell me."

ANOTHER DEATH OF A HOLISTIC DOCTOR WHO CLAIMED A CURE FOR AIDS

There has been another strange death of a "holistic doctor," this time, however, under more suspicious circumstances than usual, and there have been a wealth of such people dying under a variety of suspicious circumstances, and even of "regular" physicians who have also died, or in some cases, been murdered, under equally suspicious circumstances. But this one is more unusual than the usual "unusuality" associated with such deaths (if I may coin the word), for the individual in question, Aaron Traywick, claimed to have a cure for AIDS. (This article was shared by Mr. S.D.):

Holistic CEO Who Found ‘Cure For AIDS’ Found Dead In D.C.

There is something looming in this article that I want to spend some of my high octane speculation on, and to share what may be high octane memory loss, or perhaps "misremembrance" (to invoke that term used to "explain" the Mandela Effect wildly out of context). My high octane speculation concerns the following from the article:

Aaron Traywick’s body was discovered “face down” in a Massachusetts Avenue spa room in downtown Washington D.C. on Sunday, according to the D.C. Metropolitan Police Department. Multiple news outlets reported that Traywick was found dead inside a flotation tank.

While a police spokeswoman said no evidence has been found to suggest foul play, Traywick, a well-known health and lifestyle coach who was actively campaigning for people to take control of their lives and reject Big Pharma’s crippling products, joins the long list of holistic doctors and healers who have been killed in suspicious or unsolved circumstances during the past two years.

...

In an interview last year Traywick explained that “biohacking” refers to an individual’s efforts to alter their own biology by a variety of means including lifestyle and diet changes, surgery and the use of holistic, often unlicensed therapies.

However Big Pharma and mainstream media conspired to smear his holistic practice, and also worked overtime for years to persecute the Traywick in an attempt to drive him out of business.

Now, for those tracking such matters, there have been almost as many "mysterious doctor deaths" as there are dead bodies surrounding the Clintons or JFK witnesses who died in the aftermath of his assassination, which makes me suspect that the actuarial tables for such things happening by chance are beginning to approach the "vanishingly small" category. Nor, as has been noted, are these deaths confined solely to the "holistic" or "alternative" side of things. One need only think of the death in recent months of CDC physician Dr. Timothy Cunningham, for example. One might reach back to the 1960s, and also mention the death of Dr. Mary Sherman, the famous cancer oncologist working with Dr. Alton Ochsner of American Cancer Society fame. Dr. Sherman was an early pioneer in viral theories of cancer, until she was found dead in her apartment, the apparent victim of "death by particle accelerator"! (See Dr. Mary's Monkey by Edward T. Haslam). It didn't help Dr. Sherman that she was a friend, apparently, of David Ferrie, self-appointed cancer researcher, and a "person of interest" in then-New Orleans District Attorney Jim Garrison's JFK assassination investigation.

But in the case of Mr. Traywick, the story begins to disturb for a few other reasons. A few years ago, I seem to recall - though my memory may be faulty here (it wouldn't be the first time!) - Dame Elizabeth Taylor made some headlines when she apparently endorsed what appeared to have been a successful cure of an AIDS infected man in Germany. Again, this is what my memory tells me, but I could be wildly off mark here, or simply "misremembering" things. But as I recall, Ms. Taylor made a few statements about this case in the media, and then the story, and Ms. Taylor, promptly dropped right off the internet media, and the story was never heard about again. As I recall, she took some flak for her interest in the story, because I also seem to recall she made or implied that "big pharma" was actively suppressing such therapies. And as the old adage has it, you only take flak if you're over the target.

As was said, Ms. Taylor dropped off the radar, and continued to run her AIDS charity until her death in 2011. In attempting with limited time to verify my memories of that story while scheduling this week's blogs, I came across this article on Ms. Taylor's charity website:

The Doctor Who First Saw AIDS Believes in a ‘Possible Cure’

The article, by Felix Gussone, MD, is dated June 14, 2016, approximately five years after Elizabeth Taylor's death. It does, however, contain intriguing statements, which brings me back once again, not to my high octane memory loss or "misremembering", but to my high octane speculations:

3. The Once-a-Day Pill That Prevents the Disease

People who are HIV negative and want to stay that way can take a pill to reduce their risk of contracting the virus.

It’s called “Prep” and involves taking a pill called Truvada once a day. Research has shown this is between 90 percent and 99 percent effective at preventing HIV infection. Besides Prep, it’s also important that the “old school message” still gets out there: Condoms are the old-fashioned, but effective, way of limiting the chance of becoming HIV positive.

4. A Cure for HIV is Possible

The fact that we’re even talking about the possibility of a cure — that’s the eradication of HIV from the body — is a huge milestone. We’re not there yet but I think in the next 10-20 years, we’ll have a cure for HIV. The cure is the next step and nowadays, we are having realistic conversation about it. This is truly amazing to me.

But a once-a-day-pill is not a cure. It is, however, a financial boon to those making, and charging money for, the pill, especially if to survive one has to take one a day for the rest of one's life. And as a recent Goldman-Sachs study concluded, it's just not as profitable to cure people as it is to keep them diseased but "healthy". Cures are the last thing the modern "health care" industry wants. And that brings me back to Dame Taylor, that strange story from a few years ago, and my possible "mis-remembering" of the story, because in Mr. Traywick's case, if indeed he had found an actual cure, then indeed, that would constitute profound monetary motivations for staging an "untimely death," and as any criminal investigator knows, motive is a primary component in "who dunnit." There's no money in curing cancer, or AIDS, or anything else. And that's the problem.

As for Mr. Traywick, yea, to me it's like a mackerel on a moonlit beach; it both shines, and stinks. And as the article itself concludes:

It is time to recognize the extraordinary number of deaths within the holistic medical community for what it is – a purge.

Yup. It looks that way to me too.

SOUTH AFRICA SET TO SEIZE WHITE FARMERS’ FARMS

This story has been getting little to no attention in the lamestream corporate controlled media, but it's a story I have to comment on, for the African National Congress that runs South Africa, is becoming radicalized and is getting ready to seize the farms of white people in that country. There are some reports that this has already begun to happen, and there's been another report that will form the substance of today's high octane speculation. Here is one version of the story:

South Africa Heading Toward Communist Disaster, Says Winemaker

While the action is execrable, it is at least understandable, given South Africa's history. What is not understandable is why there is little to no reporting of this development and its frightening potential implications.  I could comment, but I suspect most readers here know what I would say, and that they have similar suspicions as well.

There's a more interesting aspect of this, however, that I wonder about, and it concerns some stories on this development that ran on RT:

South African farmers seek refuge in Russia’s Crimea

A matter of life & death’: 15,000 white South African farmers seek refuge in Russia, report says

There are some interesting between-the-lines implications of the second RT report, in these passages:

The new South African government, led by President Cyril Ramaphosa, has pledged to return the lands owned by white farmers since the 1600s to the black citizens of the country. The government said it is planning to put an end to what it calls the legacy of apartheid, where most of South Africa’s land is still in the hands of its minority white population.

Rights groups have said the initiative incites violence. There were 74 farm murders and 638 attacks, primarily against white farmers, in 2016-17 in South Africa, according to data by minority rights group AfriForum.

The farmers are prepared to make a contribution to Russia’s booming agricultural sector, according to Rossiya 1. Each family is ready to bring up to $100,000 for leasing the land.

Russia has 43 million hectares of unused farmland, and has recently begun giving out free land to Russian citizens to cultivate farming. The land giveaway program, which began in 2014, has been a huge success.

Now, as the reader can imagine, I have all sorts of high octane speculations going through my head, from clever ploys of using the ANC as cats' paws to drive out these farmers to nations that can use their skills and expertise (like Russia), to the disturbing implications of driving people off of land they have owned for over three centuries. But behind all these wild and high octane excursions, I have one fundamental question that no one seems to be asking: Why are these people not seeking refuge in "the land of the free and the home of the brave"?  Or for that matter, apparently not seeking refuge in the ancestral homeland of the Netherlands? Or anywhere else in western Europe?

I have no evidence here for what I am about to suggest; in short, I am just plain guessing, so this does not even rise to the level of my usual "high octane speculation". And my guess does not involve anything concerning race, but rather, culture. If I were a Boer family under such threat, the last places I would consider would be the "land of the free and the home of the brave," for the simple reason that its culture is a carefully engineered swamp created over decades by the American "creep state" (big thanks to Ms. K.M. for suggesting that term for the American deep state), with an increasingly shrill radical element advocating violence if it does not get its way. Its constitution is a tattered patchwork of "interpretations" and bureaucratic end runs, its Bill of Rights now a Bill of Wishful Suggestions. The same, I suspect, holds true for their perceptions of Europe, for other than Austria, Italy, and Hungary, Europe appears to be hellbent on the destruction of its culture, and subservient to a technocrat class of bureaucrats in Brussels telling everyone else what to do, think, and how to act. They can smell the foul odor of socialism and all its attendant ills and identity politics and nostrums a mile away. And they don't like what they smell.

Which makes the choice of these 15,000 people - Russia - all the more intriguing. Why Russia? Well, I suspect - and again I'm only guessing - that watching Mon(ster)santo and IG Farbensanto corrupt the American (and pretty much everyone else's, except of course, Russia's) food supply, might have something to do with it. Or again, in Russia, whatever else one might say about the Russian government, it is at least evident that it means to protect and preserve its national and cultural identity, and especially its Christian heritage so intimately bound up with Russian history and culture, something no other European or western country (in the broadest sense of those terms) is willing to do. How Russia responds to a non-Orthodox but Christian population will be an intriguing lesson to watch.

In the final analysis, though, what this story suggests is very telling, and what it suggests does not bode well for the future: people under threat, whose culture is inherently western, who are being forced to make the painful decision of leaving their homes, have weighed the West, and its "leader", America, and found it utterly wanting, and no longer a home.

SOUND, PHONONS, AND ANTI-GRAVITY

Every now and then one of our regular readers finds one of those "gems" that can't be ignored, and today is no different, as Mr. I.R. found this paper (he was the first of many), and passed it along, together with his own outline of a "high octane speculation." The essence of the story? Some scientists are theorizing that perhaps sound waves have inherent anti-gravity properties:

Physicists Say There Could Be a Strange Source of 'Negative Gravity' All Around Us

The core of the article lies here:

Still, it's previously been thought that these phonons couldn't be affected by gravity - or have an effect on gravity - because they don't carry mass.

But earlier research by the team's leader, Alberto Nicolis, which was published in Physical Review Letters in May, provided some experimental evidence that this might not be the case - at least not under extreme conditions.

The experiment was conducted in zero-temperature superfluids, which are a strange type of fluid that flow with no resistance at all at temperatures close to absolute zero.

Under those conditions, Nicolis and his team reported seeing phonons' trajectories bend upwards, seemingly in opposition to the effect of gravity.

"In a gravitational field phonons slowly accelerate in the opposite direction that you would expect, say, a brick to fall," one of the team, Rafael Krichevsky, told Live Science.

The effect is too small to measure with existing technology, and there are also other potential explanations for this trajectory that have nothing to do with gravity.

But Nicolis' latest paper builds on the idea that the phonons were generating some type of negative gravitational field.

They propose that "the (tiny) effective gravitational mass of the phonon generates a (tiny) gravitational field. And the source of this gravitational field travels with the phonon," the team writes on arXiv.

"Thus, in a very physical sense, the phonon carries (negative) mass."

Now, we're not going to go into all the calculations carried out because they're pretty intense (you can read all about them in the paper).

But in short, the team was able to show mathematically that classical sound waves could carry mass - and not just in superfluids or the quantum world, but in real-world settings.

"We showed that, contrary to common belief, sound waves carry gravitational mass, in a standard Newtonian sense: they are affected by gravity, but they also source gravity," the team concludes.

Now for those currently reading, or who have just read, my earlier book Grid of the Gods or my latest book Microcosm and Medium...

NEW BOOK IS AVAILABLE ON LULU!!!

...this will not come as any surprise, for in both books I have speculated that ancient temples, and later, churches, were deliberately placed on certain key nodal points of the world to modulate information into the "planetary field." The chief means of doing this was via sound, and if these scientists are correct, acoustic waves are inherently gravitational. In effect, what one is saying is that like any wave, information can be modulated into that wave, which then becomes a carrier wave for the information. One may think of the phenomenon as a kind of "gravito-acoustic" wave, if the theorectical speculation should bear any fruit.

But as Mr. I.R. pointed out in his email to me, a more exciting and tantalizing high octane speculation, however, is that if this approach should be proven to be true, it would give an actual basis in science for some very ancient legends, stretching from Egypt to Tibet to South America. And as I shall also mention, even to a more contemporary bit of lore. With respect to the ancient legends, in Egypt there are legends to the effect that the priests levitated the giant stones of their temples and pyramids with sound, and simply moved and positioned them into place. From Tibet, there are similar stories of the monks using chant and musical instruments (in most cases a large horn-like instrument) to move large heavy rocks. There are similar suggestive legends from South America and some indications of a similar tradition in Meso-America. If the paper should be true, then these legends take on new life.

A more contemporary story comes from UFO lore and from the 19th century airship mystery. My friend and colleague Walter Bosley has commented on occasion that his father, whom he believes with good reason had been involved in some highly classified black projects (see Shimmering Light By Walter Bosley), told him that one off the exotic technologies he saw had to be activated - literally - by a tuning fork. When struck to the craft, it levitated. The clear implication? Acoustics had something to do with the craft's alleged anti-gravity properties.

There is, as the article points out, already a bit of evidence that their speculations might be true:

But earlier research by the team's leader, Alberto Nicolis, which was published in Physical Review Lettersin May, provided some experimental evidence that this might not be the case - at least not under extreme conditions.

The experiment was conducted in zero-temperature superfluids, which are a strange type of fluid that flow with no resistance at all at temperatures close to absolute zero.

"In a gravitational field phonons slowly accelerate in the opposite direction that you would expect, say, a brick to fall," one of the team, Rafael Krichevsky, told Live Science.

The effect is too small to measure with existing technology, and there are also other potential explanations for this trajectory that have nothing to do with gravity.

It's far from proof. By the same token, it's far from disproof.

But there's another bit of ancient legend, too, that the paper has implications for, far more disturbing implications. In Giza Death Star Destroyed I pointed out that the fourth tablet of the Bablylonian epic, the Enuma Elish, that Marduk's weapon involved in the destruction of Tiamat, which I understood to be a planet, had every appearance of being a kind of acoustic weapon.

Or to put it in more lapidary terms, what can be used to levitate, can be used to pulverize...

HA’ARETZ HEADLINE: “NETANYAHU: HITLER DIDN’T WANT TO ...

Ok... now I know the world has gone stark raving bonkers, when the Prime Minister of Israel is saying things like "Hitler didn't want to exterminate the Jews." Talk about Holocaust revisionism! I literally had to read that one several times, and even rub my eyes to make sure that this was, indeed, the headline on the Israeli newspaper, Ha'Aretz, but, just in case you're blinking and rubbing your eyes too, here it is, courtesy of Ms. C.V.:

Netanyahu: Hitler Didn't Want to Exterminate the Jews

And just in case the headline wasn't enough for you, here's some of the article's reportage:

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu sparked public uproar when on Tuesday he claimed that the Mufti of Jerusalem, Haj Amin al-Husseini, was the one who planted the idea of the extermination of European Jewry in Adolf Hitler's mind. The Nazi ruler, Netanyahu said, had no intention of killing the Jews, but only to expel them.

In a speech before the World Zionist Congress in Jerusalem, Netanyahu described a meeting between Husseini and Hitler in November, 1941: "Hitler didn't want to exterminate the Jews at the time, he wanted to expel the Jew. And Haj Amin al-Husseini went to Hitler and said, 'If you expel them, they'll all come here (to Palestine).' According to Netanyahu, Hitler then asked: "What should I do with them?" and the mufti replied: "Burn them."

Netanyahu's remarks were quick to spark a social media storm, though Netanyahu made a similar claim during a Knesset speech in 2012, where he described the Husseini as "one of the leading architects" of the final solution.

OK...Granted, there's always the possibility that Mr. Netanyahu, who certainly has his political opponents in Israel, could be cited out of context and that one has here a typical bit of yellow journalism.

But nonetheless, the Prime Minister's remarks are quoted, and, moreover, the Prime Minister is quoting the Grand Mufti, and a firestorm is brewing over them. And isn't it peculiarly telling that there's more of a firestorm about Netanyahu quoting the Grand Mufti, than there is about the contents of the Grand Mufti's remarks themselves?

Now, as someone who's written more than a few chapters in a few books about the links between Nazis and wacked-out Islam, that Grand Mufti al-Husseini may have said such a thing comes as no surprise to me. What do we expect from a man whose relative was Yasser Arafat, and from a man who maintained close ties to the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood and raised Muslim units for the Waffen SS during World War Two? But typically for the lobotomized and addle-minded myopia of genocidal maniacs like Husseini and Hitler (we could probably throw Pope Innocent III in here too, though for an entirely different reason, like the Albigensian crusade), such programs must be 100% successful to be successful, otherwise, the backlash is amazing and lo and behold you get a climate of world opinion that says the Jews must have a homeland, and that homeland has to be smack dab in the middle of your homeland.

Woops. Funny how that worked out.

All this to say, I expect such craziness from the likes of al-Husseini and Hitler, but from the Prime Minister of Israel itself!?!? Hitler didn't come up with the idea on his rotten murderous black-hearted own? He had to have it whispered into his grasping and murderous ears by the Grand Mufti? I'm sorry Mr. Prime Minister, but such a view makes very short shrift of the numerous and clear indications that the genocide of European Jewry and pretty much anyone else the Nazis didn't like was clearly on 'Dolf's mind long before the Grand Mufti had tea with "the Leader"   on Nov 28 1941.  The atrocities of the Reichskristallnacht in 1938 are known to virtually anyone with a passing familiarity with pre-war Nazi Germany. The SS Einsatzgruppen and their murders of Jews (and again, anyone else the Nazis didn't like) as the Wehrmacht drove into Poland in 1939 are well-known, as are the similar atrocities committed by the Einsatzgruppen during the first months of the Nazi invasion of the Soviet Union when Jews (or again, anyone else the Nazis didn't like) were simply rounded up, lined up before mass graves, and summarily shot simply for the "crime" of being Jewish.  And again, this was months before Al-Husseini's Afternoon Tea with 'Dolf at Berchtesgaden.

My point, lest it be missed, is that there is every indication that the Nazi leadership intended the genocide long before Al-Husseini arrived in Berlin for his meeting with 'Dolf on the 28th of November, 1941! And I also highly doubt that Scramble Brains was looking for approval for his actions from the Grand Mufti either. It is much more likely that the Nazi leader, cynical and amoral man that he was, was merely gauging the state of opinion in the Middle East for what he already intended to do. Then there's the very strange case of Rudolf Hess, and the indications that he knew of those plans, and may have been attempting to head them off when he flew to Scotland in May of 1941, again, long before the Grand Mufti's Tea at Berchtesgaden.

But I suspect there's another nasty agenda here, and that agenda is to fasten the Genocide of the Jews, not on Adolf Hitler and the Nazis, but on the Palestinians in the form of the Grand Mufti so that a new Herrenvolk can ride roughshod over Palestinians, driving the latter into more and more radicalism, and so the vicious circle begun millennia ago by Yahwism, with the whole "chosen people/Herrenvolk" motif,  can go on...and on and on...and on...... and on... One may predict where this form of "justice" may lead, for just as Germany had to pay reparations of one sort or another for the genocide, the same, it strikes me, may eventually be argued for the Palestinians if Mr. Netanyahu's ghastly "historical logic" is followed through to the end. It's called, if I remember correctly (and I may be a little confused as to who is doing what to whom here, but then again, I always had a lot of trouble with that Isaac and Ishmael stuff in Sunday school), a jizyah?

I'm sorry Mr. Prime Minister: while I am certainly not sympathetic with any stated intention from any quarter - Nazi or Grand Mufti or Ayatollah or anyone else - to exterminate Israel, or that it should not have a right to exist, by the same token, I am not sympathetic to any program or propaganda device to fasten the genocide of Jews during the Second World War on Palestinians in the form of Al Husseini either. If that's the game, count me out.

THE STRANGENESS OF THE CALIFORNIA FIRES

Today I want to talk about those fires in California...

Every now and then, I do come across a video that intrigues me(this time from Mr. D.S.M.), and so I went looking for more, and found a couple that I want to share, and comment on. But first I want to remind people of the background. Last year we saw similar fires in California, and with them, abundant indication of something highly anomalous about them, including what for me was the tell tale giveaway: plants that were unburned, but which were "rolled" or pushed into bizarre shapes, as if a giant had come along and stomped or twisted them into these bizarre shapes.

As I wrote in my book Covert Wars and Breakaway Civilizations, such effects are common when very high power microwaves are directed at plants. I speculated in that book, based on some British scientists' studies of crop circles, that they were formed by microwaves and most likely by microwave interferometry, and were in fact a kind of "test pattern" to see how closely and tightly such waves  and interferometry patterns could be controlled and manipulated. If that hypothesis and speculation be true, then the crop circles are evidence that such control can indeed be very precisely directed. What one is seeing are exotic shapes and drawings being produced by remote means - the interferometry - while the surrounding crops are undamaged. I'm even entertaining the idea (now) that such interferometry may be creating unique localized magnetic effects, and that the magnetic effects are the direct causes of the strange patterns, and not the microwave interferometry itself.

In any case, a little reflection on this speculation will show that the same basic phenomenon is in evidence in the strange fires in California: whole houses burned to a crisp, while nearby shrubs and trees appear unburned, and in some cases, not even charred by the ambient heat of the fires. That, at least, was the case last year.

Now we have fires again, and thus far, I've been reluctant to comment on them because I wanted to see some evidence of these types of anomalies. So far there have been statements about "firenados", super-heated vortices, and speculations that these could be the result of such technologies. I suspect that they can be, but need not must be, for similar vortices were reported by the survivors of the British fire-bombings of Hamburg and Dresden during the Second World War. But Mr. D.S.M. sent a long the first video that I've linked below, and I went looking for more by the same lady doing the analysis, and found another.

At this stage, yes, I do think there may be enough to put these most recent fires in the "strange" category and to see the possible use of some such exotic microwave technology, perhaps in conjunction with other technologies. Here are three videos from the same lady to ponder:

Of course, the problem is why anyone would do such a thing? Granting for the sake of argument that my (and this lady in the video's) speculations are true, then why would this be being done? I suspect that the same speculation as we advanced for the previous fires, may be operative here: someone wants the land, for whatever purpose, and wants to pick it up for pennies on the dollar. That's probably the most disturbing speculation of them all, in terms of its implications...

...for it implies that someone with "access" to such exotic technology, which one may assume are owned by the government or corporation, may be using it for purely private agendas and gain...

In any case, I suspect this is one of those cases of "you tell me"...

A STRANGE MISSILE LAUNCH, AND AN EVEN STRANGER COMMENT FROM ...

In today's world I'm almost hesitant to comment on this story, much less offer any high octane speculation about it. When I first heard about the story, I entertained some high octane suspicion about it, but thought not to blog about it until I received a couple of copies of the story in my inbox, and in one instance, an almost identical high octane speculation about the incident to my own unstated concerns. This speculation came along with the following version of the story from Zero Hedge, along with the speculation, from Mr. H.N.:

"Serious Incident" Unfolds As NATO Jet Accidentally Launches Secret Missile Near Russian Border

Now, one might guess why I was initially reluctant to comment on the story in today's world: Stock market go down? Blame Mr. Putin and Russia. Pension fund problems? Blame Mr. Putin and Russia. Having problems finding that missing $50,000,000,000,000 that you set aside? Blame Mr. Putin and Russia.  Can't get reach customer non-service in India? Blame Mr. Putin and Russia. Flat tire? Blame Mr. Putin and Russia. Didn't get the grades from your professors you wanted? Blame Mr. Putin and Russia. Wrong person  elected to the local animal shelter control board? Blame Mr. Putin and Russia. Spies didn't die when you laced their house with nerve agents? Blame Mr. Putin and Russia. (The last one is particularly useful, for it gives you the excuse to impose more sanctions.)

It's really become almost comical to watch the Putinomania and Russophobia -  let's call it Putinorussophobimania - at work these days. With all of the things modern Russia and Mr. Putin are being blamed for, it makes Stalin's Soviet Union look positively quiescent and supine, and hence one does not want to add too hastily to the climate of Putinorussophobimania. In such a climate the smallest incidents can get blown all out of proportion, and in the case of the world's other large thermonuclear power, that can be a bad thing.

So, in that context, NATO has been holding exercises in the Baltic states, no doubt to impress Mr. Putin with its Putinorussophobimania, and how quickly it can reach St. Petersburg. Field Marshal von Leeb's Army Group North had to start hundreds of miles back, in East Prussia. NATO's Estonia is right next door. And so, just for good measure, a missile is launched - supposedly accidentally - by aircraft from the military of a nation located in the opposite diagonal corner of Europe, Spain, which to complete this picture of looming deja vu, also sent a division to the Eastern Front in World War Two, the Spanish "Blue" division, which - you guessed it - served in the Leningrad/St. Petersburg area.

It was those little "synchronicities" that piqued my curiosity about this incident, which is being tap-danced away by typical bureaucratese:

Estonia’s defense minister has halted a NATO war exercise in Estonia pending an investigation after a fighter jet deployed in northeast Europe accidentally fired a secret missile during training. Authorities are now searching for the rocket, which was shot over the Baltic country’s airspace by a Spanish fighter jet this week near the Russian border.

...

“The Spanish defense minister has apologized and expressed deep regret,” Luik said, adding that the commander of the Spanish Armed Forces has apologized for the mishap.

According to Fox News, Estonian Prime Minister Juri Ratas communicated with NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg on Wednesday, expressing Estonia’s concern over the “serious incident.”

The aircraft, the article goes on, were stationed at Siauliai (Schaulen), Lithuania. There things would have remained, and I would have been content to continue contemplating the weird synchronicities of the incident, but also dismissing them as merely "weird synchronicites" and another splendid example of what sorts of nonsense Putinorussophobimania can get one to entertain. I chose not to blog about the story, lest my high octane speculations sound like the hysterical death-rattles of Putinorussophobimania of CNN or MSNBC(I mean, c'mon, who names their kid with the first name of a wild large canine, and glues it to a surname that conjures up images of panzers, artillery, and dive-bombers? "Wolf", after all, was Hitler's codename. So this hysterical character's name is Hitler Blitzer.  See what sorts of absurd mental gymnastics Putinorussophobimania can do to you?)

But then there is this statement from Russia itself, which has me thinking that maybe, after all, a bit of Putinorussophobimania might be a good thing here, because it least will have them thinking twice in the Wolfschanze Nato headquarters:

“At the present moment, we cannot confirm the existence of any contacts between the NATO Operations Command and the Russian military on this incident. However, after saying this, I will add that many civilian and military organizations play their role in ensuring international air security. We cannot say anything more on this incident as long as the investigation is going on.”

Now, Mr. H.N. advanced his own speculations regarding this cryptic statement, and I have to agree with him, because first of all, the statement clearly implies that a Russian investigation is underway, and that implies all sorts of problems, not the least being that Russia may have detected the launch of the missile (and probably did), to the missile landed in Russian territory, and not Estonia at all. If it did, then it explains the Estonian defense minister's sudden cancellation of the NATO exercise: "Woops, sorry about that Vlad, our missile went a bit wonky and landed in Russia. Good thing the warhead wasn't armed, huh?"  But there's an even grimmer potential high octane scenario here: What if the missile launch was not accidental, but deliberate, an attempt to create a false flag incident, or an accident, whose flames could be fanned into war, but it failed. This is where that second part of the Russian statement comes in: "However, after saying thins, I will add that many civilian and military organizations play their role in ensuring international air security. We cannot say anything more on this incident as long as the investigation is going on."

Civilian organizations and military? Civilian organizations would imply the Russian FSB, successor to the KGB, and military organizations speaks for itself, and moreover, this is all spoken in a context implying investigations. So what if Nato was just served another big notice of Russian electromagnetic capabilities? Remember that blackout of Nato equipment in Syria after the Russians arrived? Remember Mr. Trump's cruise missile strike, where approximately half the missiles somehow went haywire and didn't strike their targets (or, so we're told). Remember the USS Donald Cook and USS Fitzgerald incidents?  And while we're at it, we might as well throw in those "false alarm" missile alerts in Hawaii and Japan, the strange missile launch off the southern coast of California, or more recently, near the Seattle-Tacoma-Vancouver area, the US military's denials, and the possibilities of hacking... So maybe "someone" tried to pull "something" in Estonia, and maybe the Russians got wind of it, and put a stop to it and maybe even deliberately brought the Nato missile down in their own territory. Maybe the Estonians got wind of it too, and pulled the plug on the operation. I don't know.

But it does seem to me to be a speculation worth entertaining, especially in the context of all the other strange events mentioned above. Someone seems to want to trigger a war with Russia, and someone seems to be intervening to prevent it, perhaps the Russians themselves... who knows? There is a pattern here, in my high octane speculative opinion, and it's not entirely a good one...
