WARFARE: THE BIOLOGICAL ATTACK CONTROVERSY

Are Secret Experiments Made On Unsuspecting U.S. Citizens?
Vehicular Technology To Sniff Germ-Laden Air is Planned
By Patricia Conklin

 

"America is stepping up preparations to cope with biological warfare," says Nicholas Horrock in U.S. News and World Report. Horrock tells of mass destruction tests that are being conducted at unknown sites around Denver, Colorado. These tests are for assessing the area's ability to cope with terrorists who may be likely to press usage of what is being called "The Poor Man's Nuke."

Iraqi missiles containing anthrax germs and other horrific diseases are still in production, according to international investigators, and Iran, Libya, North Korea, and Syria are following suit.

The possible effects as they might rain on American soil are becoming matters for lengthy debates. Recently the office of B'nai Brith, a Jewish version of GLAAD, received a package marked with distinct symbols for Anthrax. Though the box was empty, if it hadn't been, says Horrock, the readiness of America to deal with biological attacks would have been put to the maximum test.

One arms-control expert, argued in public that it would be difficult for terrorists to effect a biological attack. Most biologicals can be swept away by wind or rain, or they must be absorbed in such massive amounts as to make mass destruction impossible.

Others argue that we would not be able to detect a biological attack in its early stages. Various suggestions, including the development of attack site-removed laser beams that can detect the presence of germs., have been discussed. "Ideally we would like to develop a detection system using something remote, like a laser beam that could or vehicular technology that could sniff air samples and tell quickly whether one of 26 toxic agents are present. Brig. Gen. John Doesburg's command awarded the premier contract for this vehicular technology in June.

Last month in Ohio, a reputed microbiologist known as Larry Wayne Harris, who, according to arresting officials is said to have ties to right-wing militia groups, "pleaded guilty to fraudulently obtaining bubonic plague cultures," according to Horrock. Almost nothing appeared in mainstream media about Larry Harris's arrest and conviction. It seems that he claims to have worked on biological experiments for the CIA.

GayToday has received criticisms of Larry Wayne Harris' status as a scientist, a compendium of opinion indicating that there is considerable controversy over just who Harris really is and what it is he's actually doing. The controversies raging are are given in stark detail by Dr. Len Horowitz, a prominent public health researcher.

Dr. Horowitz, like Dr. Alan Cantwell, Jr. (see GayToday's continuing Health feature series) believes that U.S. Government biowarfare experiments seem to have involved secret tests on the U.S. public. Whether or not one agrees that such a theory is reasonable, Horowitz, a scientist, nevertheless raises significant questions about Ohio's Mr. Harris. And Dr. Horowitz is no minor name in his field. Given the government's track record of unwarranted human experiments, Dr. Horowitz's concerns deserve at least status as reasonable fears. His credentials as an accredited medical scientist, it must be said, warrant a second look at biological warfare experiments. His paper, forwarded to GayToday by Dr. Cantwell, is titled:

Larry Harris, Biological Attack, and Psychological

Warfare on America

By Dr. Len Horowitz

President, Tetrahedron Incorporated

Numerous questions have arisen regarding Larry Harris's credibility and his predictions and prescriptions for biological warfare aimed against the United States and our people. I am extremely suspicious of Larry Harris for at least six reasons:

1) Mr. Harris is virtually practicing medicine without a license on a public health scale as he has recommended that people go out and buy antibiotics to be taken at the first sign of trouble. I am not opposed to stockpiling and refrigerating antibiotics as a preventive measure, but before treatment is initiated, diagnosis is critical. Many antibiotic resistant strains of bioweapons have been produced making one's choice of antibiotic moot in the absence of laboratory analysis.

Moreover, on occasion, Mr. Harris has prescribed antibiotic dosages that may leave many people suffering from nerve damage or other illnesses. The correct human dose of tetracycline is 250 to at most 500 milligrams per day for ten to fourteen days. One gentleman personally informed me he was instructed by Mr. Harris to take three times that dose for a month--clearly a toxic prescription.

2) Mr. Harris has been called by some "a fraud" and others an "expert scientist." Wherein lies the truth?

Months ago I was sent Mr. Harris's resume' along with portions of his book. I was unimpressed. The many spelling and grammatical errors found clearly reflected an educational and professional deficit. I'm reminded of the phrase "real men don't eat quiche." Real scientists know their publications, particularly their curriculum vitaes, are a measure of their professional integrity. Legitimate scientists would be aghast to have such a mistake-laden reflection of their work circulating.

Likewise, the poor content in Mr. Harris's audio and video presentations, as discussed below, reflects a possibly sincere laboratory technician, and superficially credited microbiologist, but not a highly or even well-credentialed man of science, health, or bioweapons research.

3) Mr. Harris alleges to have been a CIA agent with CDC bioweapons laboratory experience. CIA agents have been known to be notoriously unreliable and sources of counterintelligence propaganda. If Mr. Harris's connections to the CIA are true, and I don't doubt Mr. Harris's sincerity in believing his reports and CIA connections are, then given the nature of his information, and the social/political context in which it is being disseminated, I must conclude Mr. Harris is being used by elements within the CIA as a counterintelligence propagandist.

Case in point, weeks ago when Associated Press announced Mr. Harris's guilty plea to fraud charges, it was predictable this would further endear Mr. Harris in the hearts and minds of many people on the political right and well as anti-government groups. It was likewise predictable Mr. Harris would then be additionally useful in discrediting certain "fringe" elements who favored him or his arbitrary health and safety prescriptions. As the attachments show, this has all come to pass.

Regardless of Mr. Harris's personal intent, he is now functioning as a tool for propagandists, and the public should be forewarned.

4) Mr. Harris recently pleaded guilty of fraud in a plea bargain regarding the illegal storage and transportation of pathogenic microorganisms. Had Mr. Harris been a legitimate scientist, he might have arranged to have his experimental material shipped more safely and legally.

5) The story of Mr. Harris's friend "Miriam," a Muslim woman who, along with alleged allied terrorists, are preparing to release bioweapons on American populations, entirely self-incriminates Mr. Harris.

First, this story is consistent with another CIA affiliate and government propagandist, best selling author Tom Clancy who, in his recent book, presented the same thesis as Harris.

Next, Mr. Harris's expressed personal knowledge of "Miriam" includes granting her a three-day head start to "get away" from federal authorities. If this were true, then Mr. Harris would be guilty of treason, and aiding and abetting in a conspiracy that, according to Harris, may kill well over 150 million Americans. Is it reasonable to give trust to a man who gives such a terrorist three days to escape thus jeopardizing the continent of North America and beyond?

Furthermore, as advanced by pharmacist, attorney and biowarfare researcher Lawrence Joyce in "Lessons From Dugway" [(773) 286-7986], it would be counter intelligent for Muslim terrorists to perform as Mr. Harris alleged. In Joyce's well considered words, "you can get more bang for the buck by getting the world's largest economic and military power to concede to your demands than you can by destroying it. After all, you can't control and manipulate dead people, and you gain no power by gaining control over a wrecked economy; you gain power by dictating the course of the lives of people who are part of a strong economy. The tail will always jump at the chance to wag the dog."

Joyce details additional reasons why a Harris scenario is counterproductive and unlikely for terrorist organizations. Moreover, common sense would tell you that even Muslim hate/extremist groups would not be inclined to attack urban areas of the U.S. wherein the vast majority of their support emanates.

My research indicates Americans, and others worldwide, are at far greater risk of bioweapons attack by a rogue element within our own CIA than from anyone else. This must be understood in light of America's principle national security interest (and clearly articulated motive)-- population control, the purveyors of which now focus on reducing the U.S. population by approximately 125 million, and they have the means to do it.

The world's leading biotechnology laboratories and chemical and biological weapons (CBW) contracting firms are ours, including institutions such as Merck, Sharp & Dohme, Litton Industries, Dow Chemical, and others. As documented in Emerging Viruses: AIDS & Ebola--Nature, Accident or Intentional?[Toll free (888)-508-4787], the insidious nature and international extent of the military-medical-industrial bioweapons complex is shocking to say the least.

It should be recalled that the Bush administration supplied Sadam Hussein with military and biological armaments up until two weeks before our vets, now many ailing from Gulf War Syndrome (GWS), invaded Kuwait. U.S. Government celebrated and promulgated vaccines, some produced by Tannox Biomedical Systems, co-owned by Bush's Secretary of State James Baker III, continue to plague our vets and jeopardize the public's health while federal authorities turn a blind eye to the true hazards of deadly vaccine contaminations being given even today to America's children.

Thus, Mr. Harris's and other propagandists' blaming political enemies, and the victims of biological attacks (as was recently the case when parents were blamed for not getting their children vaccinated in lieu of a hepatitis A outbreak associated with U.S. Government produced and distributed contaminated desserts, or decades ago gay men and Black Africans were blamed for initiating the AIDS epidemic, when contaminated vaccines were more plausibly the cause) is convenient chicanery, insulting to all who see through the ruse. Unfortunately, too few do.

And with more and more conflicting messages being passed by people like Mr. Harris, or his handlers, it becomes harder and harder to see the forest of legitimate threat through the trees of disinformation and counterintelligence propaganda.

6) Mr. Harris has also endorsed certain antibiotics, including colloidal silver, and certain manufacturers and distributors of these products. I believe that this is a questionable and perhaps unethical practice. Though I too favor proven safe and effective doses of alternative therapies for specific illnesses, I have yet to read one convincing scientific report to substantiate Mr. Harris's claims regarding colloidal silver as a universal antibiotic and antiviral. Clearly more research needs to be done in this area.

In one advertisement on short wave, Mr. Harris was said to have found colloidal silver effective against 600 different types of microorganisms. By 1970, the World Health Organization and domestic biological weapons establishment had "isolated" more than 70,000 different strains of viruses alone. Moreover, Mr. Harris's promoters have recommended daily use of this antibiotic without citing its undesirable effects on the normal intestinal flora. All of this at the time the FDA-- America's medical mafia--is threatening to regulate colloidal silver and other potentially useful, low risk and cost alternatives to expensive and toxic, but patentable pharmaceuticals. Here again, Mr. Harris is playing right into the hands of our shadow governors, pharmaceutical industry barons, and their propagandists.

In concluding my remarks re: Larry Harris, I would urge caution in matters concerning public health and biological warfare as articulated by him. He may well be, as he claims to have been, an agent for the CIA, though much of his information appears to be counter-intelligent in nature.

I have no doubt that we will have increasing numbers of small to medium size outbreaks of infectious microorganisms like E. coli 157, flesh eating bacteria, meningococci, new viruses like AIDS, Ebola, Hanta, hepatitis C, and others that CIA bioweapons contractors investigated (if not developed), and further dispersed, during and after "Project: MKNAOMI," that are now associated with widespread illness. These outbreaks will parallel rising mortality rates from virus-linked soft tissue cancers, including prostate, breast, and lymphomas, and from increasingly common exposures to various chemical and environmental pollutants and manmade toxins. Some, if not most of these exposures will be intentionally and covertly administered such as the recent CBS News televised spraying of the human carcinogen malathion (and possibly additional toxins) from black helicopter over South Florida and Miami Beach (allegedly to counter a fruit fly infestation). Such activities and exposures may well serve a clearly articulated and well documented population control agenda now targeting the United States population as others have been targeted in years past.

Moreover, the mainstream news media will continue to ignore, and in many cases, obscure the facts. This information is relayed in the interest of public health and safety by:
