As the world turns, the plot twists just keep getting more incongruous every day.
Before I move into this week’s topic of a thing called “Havana Syndrome” I want to report the latest missing/dead scientists count relating to interdimensional travelers (i.e., UAPS, UFOs, aliens). It is 16 now, and they are dating back several years as the list grows.
Note too, this scientist topic will come back around at the end of my column like a big circle.
I said two weeks ago, in any situation, follow your soul’s message and from there keep in mind that organizations like the CIA have built-in strategies regarding clandestine operations, counterintelligence, and psychological deception.
Fact: to make a lie work, the deception must be wrapped in credible, verifiable facts.
Add to that the “Illusion of Truth” and remember humans are easily duped. If you repeat a statement often enough people will accept it as true – even if they know it is not.
And now: “Havana Syndrome.”
This was the name given to unexplained health symptoms first reported in 2016 by U.S. diplomats/intelligence personnel in Havana.
I remember when traveling often to Asia, a U.S. Diplomat in China reportedly experienced this same thing.
I found that in 2019, a man named Mark Lenzi, a State Department security officer who worked in the U.S. consulate in Guangzhou, China said he and his wife began to suffer symptoms after hearing bizarre sounds in their apartment in 2017.
The report stated Lenzi described the sound as a “marble” circling down a “metal funnel.” He said he heard the sound four times, always in the same spot and at the same time: right above his son’s crib when he put him to bed at night. Lenzi said the sound was like nothing he had ever heard before and “fairly loud.”
Symptoms also appear to include ringing in the ears/unusual noises; headaches/dizziness; balance problems; cognitive difficulties; and sleep disturbances.
The hypothesis has been (among other possibilities) these symptoms are related to directed energy or microwave exposure.
The CIA and U.S. Department of State investigated and said, “Most cases can be explained by medical conditions, environmental factors, or stress” and emphasized, “There is no conclusive evidence of a foreign adversary using a “weapon” to cause these symptoms on a large scale.”
I was not thinking “foreign” adversary when I first learned about Havana Syndrome, were you?
Going deeper into the directed energy microwave theory it would require a microwave or radio-frequency device used to affect the brain. That means pulsed microwave frequencies that could create the sensation of sound directly inside the head, without using the ears.
A 2020 report from the National Academies of Sciences said “directed, pulsed radiofrequency energy” was a plausible explanation – but could not be proven.
CBS News’ “60 Minutes” aired a major investigative series on Havana Syndrome in early March after researching the topic for five years.
They say they found evidence that the U.S. government may have tested a directed-energy weapon linked to some Havana Syndrome cases (www.cbsnews.com/news/60-minutes-havana-syndrome-report-finds-u-s-government-tested-energy-weapon).
They also confirmed it happening to U.S. Diplomats in China, Europe, and even Washington, D.C., which does raise concerns about a covert weapon targeting U.S. personnel.
In the investigation led by Scott Pelley and producers Oriana Zill de Granados and Michael Rey, links were uncovered to Russian intelligence (why is it always Russia)?
They reported directed-energy weapons were in the U.S. government’s hands since it had acquired a microwave-based directed-energy device from a Russian criminal network.
It was believed to have been tested on animals.
The “60 Minutes” report revealed three sources from different alphabet agencies told them that undercover Homeland Security agents purchased a miniaturized microwave weapon from a Russian criminal network.
While the weapon was classified and reporters did not see it, they were told it was small enough to be concealed, silent and designed to be carried by a person. The object does not create heat, is programmable for different scenarios and can be operated by remote control with a range of several hundred feet able to penetrate windows and drywall.
Apparently, the key is not the hardware, but the software and the “programming shapes a unique electromagnetic wave that rises and falls and pulses.”
Moving further into my research, I found an item mentioned called a vircator (virtual cathode oscillator), and my question: “is this responsible for Havana Syndrome?”
Could this object cause injury to a person’s auditory and vestibular system of the brain basically messing up sound and balance?
A vircator uses a very intense electron beam inside a vacuum tube with electrons emitted from a cathode and accelerated toward an anode. If the beam current is high enough, electrons pile up and form a “virtual cathode” (a dense cloud of negative charge) in space – not a physical part and this virtual cathode oscillates back and forth. The oscillations generate microwaves, often at very high-power levels that would produce short pulses of microwave radiation reaching extremely high power.
It was explained as an uncomplicated design compared to other high-power microwave devices, but not overly efficient since a lot of energy is lost as heat or unused radiation.
There was a man I heard on the Shawn Ryan show discussing DARPA (Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency). That agency worked on early development of the internet, advances in artificial intelligence/robotics, stealth technology. He mentioned DARPA now has voice to skull technology with powers to throw your voice into your head or allow algorithms to “blanket an entire geographical area to change thoughts.”
He said, “The Department of Defense had initiated protocols for employee to discuss Havana Syndrome noting agents hearing voices in their head” and noted this could be related.
AI argued with me (and lost might I add) about Havana Syndrome. Finally, I explained “60 Minutes” had already revealed the existence, my question was how to combat the effects.
Much hemming and hawing (like a narcissist) and AI finally shared ,“There are no proven personal countermeasures to “block” or “shield” targeted radio frequency attacks. This is because the frequencies mechanisms described are uncertain and effective shielding (like Faraday cages) would require complete enclosure, not wearable gadgets.”
Back to missing scientists, www.msn.com/en-in/news/other/how-did-amy-eskridge-die-chilling-last-text-dew-havana-syndrome-claims-emerge-in-ufo-scientists-death/ar-AA21uhqc?ocid=BingNewsSerp reported the 2022 death of scientist Amy Eskridge, who was working on anti-gravity technology, recently saw new claims raising questions about her official suicide ruling. Found with a gunshot wound to the head in Huntsville, Alabama, new text messages, and allegations from a former intelligence officer suggest she feared for her life. Claims involving harassment, “directed energy weapons,” and Havana Syndrome have fueled debate and lawmakers are currently examining the disappearance/deaths of multiple scientists.
The question is why is this being leaked now?
Not a good look for the government unless something else is coming that is even messier than this disclosure.
And, the plot thickens!
