Hi:

Some odds and ends from recent reading… I recently read The Rise and Fall of the Dinosaurs (https://www.amazon.com/Rise-Fall-Dinosaurs-History-World/dp/0062490427), and I am going to compare it to another book I have been reading, Gaining Ground (https://www.amazon.com/Gaining-Ground-Second-Evolution-Tetrapods-ebook/dp/B008HNM9I8/ref=la_B005GVDKLY_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1526729465&sr=1-1), on the migration of fish to land. Both are fine books in their own ways, but both are difficult to recommend for what I am doing. I have seen Gaining Ground described as popularized science, but it really isn’t. It is highly technical, suitable for graduate students. The Rise and Fall of the Dinosaurs has kind of the opposite problem. It is popularized science, but almost too much so for what I am doing. It is written by a young scientist in the field, and is written almost like a “Dear Diary” account of his career so far, as he breezily describes his adventures (which admittedly are pretty amazing for a man in his mid-30s). That book has no footnotes, but has sources at the book’s end. I like notes, and rarely recommend books without them.

The author of Gaining Ground actually helped coin the term Romer’s Gap (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#tournasian), and her recent findings are closing that gap. She also takes on Peter Ward’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page6?p=738&viewfull=1#post738) ideas of oxygen’s role in evolution, particularly at the Devonian Extinction (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#hangenberg), as her evidence does not show an oxygen-drop event associated with it, although it likely was a low-oxygen time on Earth. Fascinating material, but her work is not really popularized science. The Rise and Fall of the Dinosaurs covers interesting recent findings (that author wrote an article that is the cover story for the current issue of Scientific American, which is why I got his book), but the book is almost more about his journey than it is the findings. For the record, the two key takeaways from his book (and recent article) for me are that dinosaurs evolved (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#dinosaur1) in moist temperate lands and were confined there as relatively marginal beasts, to only conquer Earth when its competitors died off in a mass extinction and Earth got a lot wetter, and that it was definitely a bolide event (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#cretaceousextinction) that did them in. There are still many lively controversies about dinosaurs, and many will outlive me, but there is going to be a very high hurdle for those who argue that the bolide event did not wipe the dinosaurs out. Mammals were never going to rise and overtake them. Rats and raccoons were never going to displace T-Rexes without that bolide event that wiped the slate clean. Dinosaurs were doing fine until the very end.

I have also been diving into that great controversy in anthropology: the Hobbes versus Rousseau (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#hobbes) views of early humans. It looks like that controversy will not stop anytime soon. That controversy is part of Uncle Ed’s work on Pinker’s imperial apologetics (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#pinker), and I found myself rereading books in my library, such as Demonic Males (https://www.amazon.com/Demonic-Males-Origins-Human-Violence/dp/0395877431/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1526731296&sr=1-1&keywords=Demonic+Males), the Anthropology of War (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page7?p=873&viewfull=1#post873), War Before Civilization (https://www.amazon.com/War-before-Civilization-Lawrence-Keeley-ebook/dp/B005JC0PTK/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1526731372&sr=1-1&keywords=War+Before+Civilization), and other works, as well as plenty of Internet surfing and Douglas Fry’s Rousseauian work (https://www.amazon.com/War-Peace-Human-Nature-Evolutionary/dp/0190232463/ref=sr_1_2?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1526731656&sr=1-2&keywords=douglas++fry+war), which Frans de Waal wrote the foreword to.

Richard Wrangham and de Waal are the most prominent chimp researchers in the West, after Jane Goodall, and both say that for human traits found in chimps, the rebuttable presumption has to be that those traits were passed down the human-line split from chimps (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#chimpsplit). It did not have to be that way, but that is what likely happened, such as chimps’ kissing and their politics, which are crude versions of human politics. After a career spent studying chimps and bonobos, de Wall put chimp social intelligence on par with humanity’s, which is an amazing statement.

Only two animal species have patrilocal, male-bonded territorial dynamics that launch lethal raids on their neighbors (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#coalitionary), to steal territory and females: chimps and humans. They also have a direct evolutionary relationship, and Rousseauian theorists have a big task ahead of them, to make the case that the human line lost that trait, to re-evolve it later. It is far more theoretically economical to argue that the human line never lost those traits. There is some evidence that maybe the human line became matrilocal again, like monkeys are (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#rhesus1), and reduced incisors in Ardi’s species (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ardi) is some evidence of it, but for what it is worth, while I definitely promote the bonobo way of life (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#bonobo1), it was economically conditioned by their food supply’s doubling (the human journey was economically conditioned the entire way, to today), and I think that Hobbes is still the victor. But I also make it very clear that the human journey had many golden ages (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#goldenages), which were always about the early days of exploiting a new energy source. Then it was peace and plenty, for a time. In those early days of Earth’s conquest (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#founderexit), and when Homo erectus (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#homoerectus) lightly populated Eurasia and Africa, it was likely fairly peaceful, as territorial disputes were easily resolved by simply moving to the next river valley. It did not start getting violent again until the easy meat ran out (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#australianmegafauna), and the human line became fiercely territorial again (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#violence2).

The Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5) would likely mean a permanent golden age, as the free energy technology that I am aware of won’t lead to exhaustion of the energy source, at least not anytime soon, and likely never.

Time to begin my busy weekend.

Best,

Wade

Hi:

I have a little time to write this weekend, and want to cover a topic near and dear to me. Making that Wikiquote page for Uncle Ed (https://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Edward_S._Herman#Quotes) is just a prelude to some substantial Ed work that I will do at the Wikis. My first effort was on the censorship of Ed and Noam’s first work together (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Counter-Revolutionary_Violence:_Bloodbaths_in_Fact_%26_Propaganda), and a lot more is coming. I am finishing my Ian Morris detour (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page12?p=1312&viewfull=1#post1312), and getting back to Ed and Noam, and I needed a break from it – it is harrowing stuff. While making Ed’s Wikiquote page, I looked at Noam’s (https://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Noam_Chomsky). The quotes about him (https://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Noam_Chomsky#Quotes_about_Noam_Chomsky) were largely about American hacks defending their imperial turf. Here is an example, from Daniel Flynn’s Intellectual Morons:

“Chomsky blasts the United States for having supported [post WWII] internal movements to liberate Eastern Europe from Soviet totalitarianism. "These operations included a 'secret army' under U.S.-Nazi auspices that sought to provide agents and military supplies to armies that had been established by and which were still operating inside the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe through the early 1950s." This U.S.-Nazi army is so "secret" that only Chomsky knows of it, and he has thus far kept the documentation of it to himself, lest his secret get out.”

Chomsky was referring to the well-known Operation Gladio (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Gladio), Christopher Simpson’s Blowback (https://www.amazon.com/Blowback-Americas-Recruitment-Nazis-Effects/dp/1555841066) has a chapter on the “Guerillas for World War III,” the Gehlen Org (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#gehlen) was deeply involved in those events, and so on. Some secret that only Chomsky knows about.

Brad DeLong has long been one of Chomsky’s chief assailants, and he wrote:

“PUH-LEEAAZE! Chomsky did not write that Faurisson was a Nazi sympathizer whose right to free speech needed to be defended on Voltairean principles. Chomsky wrote that Faurisson seemed to be "a relatively apolitical liberal" who was being smeared by zionists who--for ideological reasons--did not like his "findings." Herman then repeats the lie by claiming that Faurisson's critics were "unable to provide any credible evidence of anti-Semitism or neo-Naziism." Feh!”

Of course, it is easy to see what Chomsky actually wrote (https://chomsky.info/19801011/) and compare it to DeLong’s characterization of it. Chomsky wrote long on the issue (https://chomsky.info/1989____/), which, along with the Cambodia fabrications (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#cambodia), was his biggest source of grief as a public intellectual. Ed wrote on DeLong’s smears of Noam (https://www.counterpunch.org/2003/07/25/refuting-brad-delong-s-smear-job-on-chomsky/).

It is really something to study for writing Ed’s biography (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm) and being struck by how clear Ed and Noam’s work is, to see how the hacks misrepresent it while attacking it. I almost wonder who put up those quotes, Chomsky’s supporters or attackers. If it was the attackers, what a statement, to publish such easily disproven, even libelous, attacks. If it was his defenders, they had to be showing how credible the attacks on Noam were.

Those attackers fail on the integrity (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page6?p=708&viewfull=1#post708) or sentience (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#sentience1) issues, or both. As Orwell said (http://ahealedplanet.net/critics.htm#threadbare), the biggest violators against clear thinking and common sense are usually “intellectuals.” It is really amazing how the most irrational writings often come from the “smart.”

The attacks on those great men strongly remind me of the attacks that I have seen on Dennis over the years, as his critics vie to tell the biggest lies about him (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/108-The-Global-Controllers?p=1180&viewfull=1#post1180), which easily dupe the credulous (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/94-My-last-posts-in-another-forum?p=639&viewfull=1#post639) and, to be frank, the credulous lap it up because it aligns with what they want to believe.

As I look back at my life, carrying the spears for Dennis, Brian (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#adventures), Ed, and the like have been among my life’s greatest honors, greater than I could have imagined when I met Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=601&viewfull=1#post601). Those are some of the greatest humans to walk the Earth, and I was able to carry their spears, for a task that can help right humanity’s ship (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5), and quickly. On one hand, it has been anything but an easy ride, but on the other, I don’t know of a higher calling. That damned voice (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#voice3) knew what it was doing.

Best,

Wade

Hi:

This post will be about what a heavy lift my Uncle Ed bio project (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/105-My-Edward-Herman-biography-project?p=1089&viewfull=1#post1089) is. I will beef up that Wikiquote page (https://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Edward_S._Herman) before I write the article on Noam and Ed’s first books (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Political_Economy_of_Human_Rights) that were not censored (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Counter-Revolutionary_Violence:_Bloodbaths_in_Fact_%26_Propaganda#Publishing_history). Then I will make changes to the Manufacturing Consent (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manufacturing_Consent) and propaganda model (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propaganda_model) articles before I take on Ed’s bio. I have had my fair share of “fun” with Wikipedia’s “editors (http://ahealedplanet.net/wikimass.htm),” and look at this article (https://wikipedia.fivefilters.org/) on one of Wikipedia’s “editors,” who is also the most prolific editor (https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Edward_S._Herman&action=history) of the hack bio on Ed (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_S._Herman). Once I read that article on him, his edits to that CRV article (https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Counter-Revolutionary_Violence:_Bloodbaths_in_Fact_%26_Propaganda&action=history) confirmed my suspicions. It was an artful bit of deception, quoting a publication far removed from the issue, to provide spin that made the censorship seem more reasonable. I am going to have my work cut out for me.

Dealing with the “editors” will be a heavy lift in itself, but the material is a heavy lift. I am currently rereading the “constructive bloodbath” chapter of The Washington Connection (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#second), and what grim subject matter. The genocide in East Timor (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#timor) was a “benign bloodbath (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#timor),” while the simultaneous one in Cambodia was a nefarious one. Closely comparable genocides, which happened at the same time, were treated entirely differently by the media, depending on their political-economic utility. The slaughter in East Timor was perpetrated by an ally, using American weapons and diplomatic support, so when the slaughter reached genocidal levels (at a far higher proportion - the greatest since World War II - than happened in Cambodia), American media coverage actually fell to zero, while the media had a constant drumbeat on the Cambodian slaughter. Those kinds of behaviors inspired Ed to coin a new term to describe the performance: chutzpah (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#chutzpah).

The genocide as Suharto came to power (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#suharto) was a “constructive bloodbath,” as it made for an attractive investment environment for American interests. The media literally treated that genocide in “constructive” terms, calling it a “gleam of light” and other approving terms. In their chapter on “constructive terror,” Noam and Ed showed that far from an unintended consequence, torturing dissidents to the neocolonial order (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#torture) was the essence of the endeavor. You can’t enslave entire nations without resistance, so torture was part of the array of strategies to keep the populace cowed. Torture and kill enough prominent dissidents, and the rest will fall into fear and apathy. Noam and Ed devoted sections of their constructive terror chapter to Indonesia, Thailand, and the Philippines, and they also covered the trends in Latin America before Reagan was elected and the rise of butcher-dictatorships in places such as El Salvador and Guatemala (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#central), which they covered in Manufacturing Consent (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#manufacturing).

I want to cover the Philippines in particular. It was one of the USA’s first colonies (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#philippines), the USA’s actions there inspired Kipling’s White Man’s Burden (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#kipling), and the Marcos regime was notable. Noam and Ed wrote about Trinidad Herrera (http://jackthescribbler.com/2012/09/a-tribute-to-trinidad-ka-trining-herrera/), a community leader of a slum in Manila who openly defied Marcos’s martial law. She was seized and tortured, including electrodes to her nipples, which was one of their specialties (genital torture was also one of their neat tricks). Her seizure and torture was so high-profile that even the USA had to say something (when goaded into it by global outcry), so she was released (but unable to speak for days). Marcos’s torture victims living to speak out about their treatment was a PR problem, so Marcos’s goons then just began disappearing people. When people are “disappeared,” they don’t get to tell about their treatment. Noam and Ed discussed a similar situation in Thailand, where the authorities disappeared people (protesting students were one of the Thai government’s favorite targets) by incinerating them (while still alive), to remove the evidence. They were writing about the exact situation that Ralph McGehee encountered in Thailand (http://ahealedplanet.net/mcgehee.htm#communists), as he crafted a “gentler” strategy to keep the communists at bay. Ralph did not publish his book until several years after Noam and Ed’s books were published, he contributed an article to Lies of Our Times (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#loot) (LOOT), and it was an ad in LOOT (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#loot) where I discovered Ralph’s book.

A close friend has visited the Philippines a few times and has friends there. He asked one of them what the best times were in the Philippines, and the reply was during the Marcos era. The rationale was that under Marcos, the Philippines made the global news regularly. It was the Philippines’s day in the sun. My friend was stunned by that reply. Today, the Philippines has a leader (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rodrigo_Duterte) as colorful (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rodrigo_Duterte#Controversy_and_criticism) as Marcos was. In the 1980s, before I met Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=601&viewfull=1#post601), I recall reading about children assassins in the shanty towns of Latin America (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#pistolero), who would murder somebody for as little as $5. My friend told me that in the Philippines today, under the “drug war” and other initiatives by the Philippines’s president, hit men working for the government are paid $50 a pop. Maybe that is inflation at work, but also those are grown men who have to feed their families.

As I stated, this is going to be a very heavy lift, to finish Ed’s bio project, not the least of which is the subject matter.

Time to start my busy week.

Best,

Wade

Hi:

I doubt that I can overemphasize that people cannot wake up (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=309&viewfull=1#post309) with my work, or any body of work. People can only awaken through experience. As I work on my Uncle Ed bio project (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/105-My-Edward-Herman-biography-project?p=1089&viewfull=1#post1089), in which I am also carrying Noam’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/105-My-Edward-Herman-biography-project?p=1089&viewfull=1#post1089) spears, of all people, I think of my many years of digesting their work, and I know that if I had not already had my rude awakening (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#believing) on how the world really works, if I ever encountered their work, I wonder what I would have made of it. I had to be made ready for their work before I encountered it. Otherwise, it probably would not have meant much to me. And my work is vastly more radical (http://ahealedplanet.net/radleft.htm) than theirs is, so much so that I had to come up with a new term for it: epochal (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochaltable).

Theirs are the last spears that I plan to carry in this lifetime. Not only have I done enough of that, there is nobody left in my life that I am willing to carry them for (other than my wife’s :) ). Uncle Ed’s death (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/105-My-Edward-Herman-biography-project?p=1097&viewfull=1#post1097) marks the end of an era for me. I carried Mr. Mentor’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#glimpse), Dennis’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=601&viewfull=1#post601) (with Mr. Professor (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/81-Vignettes-from-my-journey-and-how-I-learned-what-I-did-and-came-to-my-approach/page3?p=239&viewfull=1#post239)), then Brian’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#intro), (even Ralph’s a little (http://ahealedplanet.net/mcgehee.htm#statement)) and now Ed and Noam’s. That is enough spear-carrying for one lifetime, and I can’t think of people more deserving of having their spears carried. What a blessing to have done that. There might be one last person whose spears I would consider carrying, Peter Ward’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page6?p=738&viewfull=1#post738), whose work had a bit to do with how I wrote my big essay. I could not seek a more informed opinion on the first half of my big essay (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#midpoint) than his, and it was a delightful surprise to have him spend the day reading it, and it told me that I was on the right track. But as much as I would like to help him on his noble mission, I have to work on building that choir (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir). Ed’s bio project has been a detour on that, but it is a labor of love and an honor.

I am constantly approached by the unawakened, who think that they are awake as they drag their baggage to me. IMO, they should not read my work, but search elsewhere. When the unawakened encounter my work, there are a number of possible reactions, but waking up is not one of them. I often see the opposite, as it drives them further asleep, as they build a bunker around their awareness, to more heavily entrench it, as they see their very survival at stake. The sleeping cannot achieve the epochal perspective needed for my approach to work.

These are lessons that I learned the hard way over many years, and they have been teaching me patience (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#reading), as I walk my own journey. All that I am interested in anymore is for the people I seek to do the work to hit the notes, my big essay (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm) is the hymnal, and I am here to help them. I know that I seek needles in haystacks, but they are out there. However, they are not going to be found by chatting up one’s social circles (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialcircle). It won’t work that way.

Best,

Wade

Hi Limor:

Our biggest awakening is when we die (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#afterlife) (at least, for most of us (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#hell)). Until then, we are all in various stages of sleepiness, and there is no end of awakening. I have been pretty specific as to the kind of awakening (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=309&viewfull=1#post309) that will be useful for what I am doing. I’ll answer in a couple of ways. Krishna’s recent post (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1224518&viewfull=1#post1224518) was good on a secular way to make the point. His peers “got theirs,” and are not really interested in how the world works or how to improve it, as long as they are “winners (http://ahealedplanet.net/intro.htm#progress).” That is typical. They rest in the comforting lies of their conditioning, and are fast asleep. They think they are awake, and at some level, they are, but not nearly enough to break through their conditioning and become truly sentient beings (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#sentience1). I have literally watched people embrace certain death (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#doom) rather than question their conditioning. It was mind-boggling at first, but now I know it is normal. Very few people on Earth are awake enough to shed their conditioning, or even want to. Those are just the numbers (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialcircle), and it is a hazard of being a social animal (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialreason).

On the mystical side of the house, Michael Roads’s mentor (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?32399-A-Future-Earth&p=672748&viewfull=1#post672748) said it brilliantly and also without judgment:

“If you choose love, then love is your reality. If you do not choose love, then your conditioning will determine your reality.”

My first post in my forum (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/4-The-Song-of-Scarcity?p=10&viewfull=1#post10) was about the siren song of scarcity that virtually all humans sing. My intent is to start a song of abundance (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/26-The-Song-of-Abundance?p=37&viewfull=1#post37) that will be sung in chorus.

On spears and peace poles, how about a maypole (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#maypole)? :) Just a figure of speech, Limor, coming from a man whose male relatives were all soldiers (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#business). Like it or not, as peaceful as my fellow travelers all were, we all got battle-scarred, and some of us died from our wounds (1 (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#attack), 2 (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#journey)). The battlefield imagery is appropriate, and yes, we always sought peace, not conflict.

To be in physical reality is to know fear. Feeling and expressing love in a world of scarcity and fear (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#coming) is no easy trick (look at how many people disguise their identities in Internet forums, for instance - that is all about fear). In the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5), it will be far easier to achieve.

Best,

Wade

Hi:

I plan to slow down on my normal posting while I work on my Ed bio project. Something has to give. My study of Noam and Ed’s Political Economy of Human Rights is for writing this article (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Political_Economy_of_Human_Rights). My chapter on it in Ed’s bio (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#second) will also get an overhaul. After that, I will take on Ed’s bio at Wikipedia (after making some changes to other articles (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/105-My-Edward-Herman-biography-project/page2?p=1142&viewfull=1#post1142)), and will likely have to battle the hacks. We’ll see how it goes.

There is a series of concepts in Political Economy of Human Rights worth a post or two. In Latin America, Southeast Asia, Indonesia, and elsewhere, the USA installed and propped up murderous regimes that tortured and slaughtered their domestic populations. Noam and Ed described those “leaders” as “denationalized,” in that they had no allegiance to their citizenry, but were completely beholden to foreign interests, primarily American, who funded, armed, and diplomatically supported them. Noam and Ed compared them to Nazi Germany (https://chomsky.info/washington03/) and other fascist states, with one important exception: Hitler at least had allegiance to his “volk,” however extreme his views and genocidal he was to “inferiors” (communists, Jews, Gypsies, Slavs (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#toward)), and he could hold Nuremberg rallies, with his mindless adherents gathering in huge crowds. The dictatorships that the USA installed had no such allegiance to their “volk,” but saw them as the enemy. Those regimes were purely comprised of military elites and a tiny urban elite who were usually landholders that milked the peasants, and their allegiance was to each other and their foreign sponsor. The 80-90% of the rest of the population was regarded as the enemy, and it can mess you up just to hear about their evil activities. Noam and Ed called them “subfascist,” as they did not have the popular support that fascist regimes enjoyed. Noam and Ed ended one section on such activities with this observation on the USA’s popular image in the West:

“It is the ultimate Orwellism that this same superpower is thought in the West to be fighting a noble battle for ‘human rights.’”

Ed and Noam cited Orwell plenty in their work, as Orwell was a prophet (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#orwell).

Wade

Hi:

I am finishing my reread of The Washington Connection (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#second), and then it will be the second volume. From Ed and Noam’s first political writings onward, they always stood on the highest ethical ground, of taking the polity that they were members of to task for its behavior, and it quickly became a two-pronged approach. In Ed’s first political work (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#early) (written before Noam’s first (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Power_and_the_New_Mandarins)), the focus was on American government’s foreign policy in Vietnam, which it had invaded, and Ed noted that its rhetoric was Orwellian from the beginning. In their first (censored (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Counter-Revolutionary_Violence:_Bloodbaths_in_Fact_%26_Propaganda)) book together, they acknowledged the propaganda role of the press, and in their first books that weren’t censored, they were explicit on the media’s role, and the outlines of their propaganda model (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#manufacturing) are clearly seen.

Their theme from the beginning was the accountability of the American government and their sponsoring interests, and the media’s enabling role. The Washington Connection is a harrowing account of American imperial efforts around the world. Their After the Cataclysm is about reconstructing the imperial ideology that got a dent in it during the Vietnam War era. They repeatedly emphasized that their emphasis was on the behavior of their nation, as it interfered in other nations, from CIA interventions to outright invasions.

There is no way that an honest and sane person could read those books and conclude that Noam and Ed were flacking for the Khmer Rouge. You would have to be an idiot, insane, or a knowing imperial hack to write that Noam and Ed were doing that. It was all about our crimes, no somebody else’s. That is what high ethical ground means. But ever since they managed to publish those books without being censored, the drumbeat lasts to this day of how Noam and Ed were Khmer Rouge apologists (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#cambodia). If you ever want to understand the depths of evil and insanity that motivates imperial apologists, digest the literature that accuses Noam and Ed of being Khmer Rouge apologists.

Virtually without exception, the attacks on Chomsky (https://www.alternet.org/media/why-noam-chomsky-subject-relentless-attacks-corporate-media-and-establishment-intellectuals) either avoid the entire thrust of his work, or lie about it. Ed was relatively unscathed, because Noam was the most prominent member of that partnership.

I have been reading Bound Away: Virginia and the Westward Movement
Demographics drive a great deal of the colonization of USA. As long as the English we're dying of diseases and starvation it had little effect apart from deadly diseases. Once they established a foothold and starting having large numbers of kids who survived. It was game over for native Americans. The other part is that Liberia can reasonbly considered as the slave colony of free American slaves who themselves enslaved the natives in Africa. A familiar chimp narrative I am afraid.

Speaking of the our cousins, bonobos are xenophilic sharing food with strangers than with group mates. Fran's de wall mentioned this but it but enter my head at that time. Brain hare reinforced the learning he along with Vanessa woods is writing a book Survival of the friendliest. Looking forward to reading it.

Hi Krishna:

I just read that Liberian section (Bound Away is in my office), and, yes, freed slaves enslaved others – they knew the game, and it made economic sense in Third Epoch societies. Colonial Haiti was that way, too, and too many other places.

On the English invasion (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#englishinvasion), the thinking today is that those lands had already been largely widowed by the time the English arrived. In Mann’s 1493, I believe, he presented a map of the Eastern Woodlands and the huge cleared areas where Indian nations lived. Those lands had been widowed and the forest returned before the English “settlers” arrived. That the Indian numbers had been greatly thinned already had a lot to do with the English success. The natives never had a chance.

Hi:

As I read Ed and Noam’s early work in The Washington Connection, in parts of it, they throw in a little ironic humor on nearly every page. I think that it must have helped them deal with such dark material, and I think that I can usually tell what was Noam’s and what was Ed’s. In later years, their work was more refined, with fewer ironic asides, and just better writing. Ed often went straight for the humor, such as in his Doublespeak Dictionary (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#chutzpah) (his Great Society Dictionary was a precursor). Ed was a better writer than Noam, IMO, but that is quibbling. They are two of the greatest scholars of conscience that the USA has yet produced.

As they finished The Washington Connection, they presented a prelude to After the Cataclysm, as American writers began spinning the wars in Southeast Asia as a noble cause gone wrong, full of “tragic errors (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#tragic),” not something that was criminal from the outset.

One day, I may have to write more on Noam, Ed, and the JFK hit (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/104-The-JFK-Assassination?p=1076&viewfull=1#post1076). I rarely found scholars whom I entirely agreed with on the matter, but there have been some, such as Mike Parenti’s take on it (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/81-Vignettes-from-my-journey-and-how-I-learned-what-I-did-and-came-to-my-approach/page2?p=225&viewfull=1#post225) and Peter Dale Scott’s work, although neither one of them dealt with Gary’s testimony (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#wean). A writer who I think is pretty good on the JFK hit failed rather badly, IMO, in this critique of Noam and the JFK hit (https://kennedysandking.com/john-f-kennedy-articles/the-deceptions-and-disguises-of-noam-chomsky). Noam and the JFK hit is quite a subject. Ed gave Gary’s story some thought, and a LOOT (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#loot) issue’s cover story was on the media establishment’s attack on Oliver Stone’s JFK before it was even released. Ed had some good JFK-related terms (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/105-My-Edward-Herman-biography-project?p=1102&viewfull=1#post1102) in his Doublespeak Dictionary.

Hi:

This post starts a new thread (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/121-Orthodoxy-the-Fringes-Structuralism-Conspiracism-Materialism-Mysticism-etc?p=1336&viewfull=1#post1336) titled: “Orthodoxy, the Fringes, Structuralism, Conspiracism, Materialism, Mysticism, Sociality, Enlightenment, and Comprehensive Thinking.” All of these topics are covered in my work, usually in a great deal of depth, but I’ll be bringing it all together in a way that I have not quite done yet. I suppose that working on Ed’s bio project (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/105-My-Edward-Herman-biography-project?p=1089&viewfull=1#post1089) helped inspire it, along with being regularly approached by people with lopsided perspectives, as they grind their particular axes. Developing a comprehensive perspective (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/63-Developing-a-Comprehensive-Perspective?p=82&viewfull=1#post82) that will be useful for this Epochal task (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir) cannot omit any of those issues: each forms part of the whole for the big picture perspective that is vitally important for an effort like mine.

Long ago, I wrote an essay on orthodoxy, alternatives (http://ahealedplanet.net/orthodox.htm), and the layman’s quandary (http://ahealedplanet.net/orthodox.htm#layman). Orthodoxy has its virtues and limitations, just as the fringes do. It takes honesty, a willingness to lay aside what we think we know, keen discernment, and a lot of work to navigate those areas.

This section (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#conspiracism) of an older essay, on structuralism and conspiracism, is what brought Brian back into my life after our disaster of an NEM experience (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#nem). In my big essay, I touched on the materialistic perspective of orthodox science (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#mystical1), and how the greatest scientists did not buy it (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#mystical), and I write plenty on mystical perspectives (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm). I have written at length on sociality and the pursuit of free energy (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/96-Human-sociality-and-free-energy?p=925&viewfull=1#post925). There are some very enlightened materialists, but theirs is a difficult walk. I found that materialist perspectives (http://ahealedplanet.net/conun.htm#subtle) usually prevented the “smart” from seeing the big picture (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level3).

So, this series of posts is going to wind all of those topics into a whole, in a way that I have not quite done before. This will take some time, as I will likely go deep on some topics in a way that I have not done before.

Hi:

I finished Noam and Ed’s The Washington Connection (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#second) last night, and I am off to reread their second volume, After the Cataclysm. Then I will be writing the Wikipedia article (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Political_Economy_of_Human_Rights), updating my bio on Ed (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm) on my site, and then tackling Ed’s bio at Wikipedia (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm). I have more plans for my Ed bio project (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/105-My-Edward-Herman-biography-project/page2?p=1142&viewfull=1#post1142), but once I get those little projects done, then it will be on to the long-overdue update of my big essay. It may be the most significant revision that I will ever make or, at least, the most significant that I will make in the decade after I first published it. Again, no changes to the essay’s basic thrust, but I will be putting more meat on the bones, to help my readers attain the comprehensive perspective (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/121-Orthodoxy-the-Fringes-Structuralism-Conspiracism-Materialism-Mysticism-etc?p=1336&viewfull=1#post1336) that is needed for my plan (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir) to work.

I am going to provide an example of the problems that I will likely encounter when I rewrite Ed’s Wikipedia bio. Ed’s first collaboration with Noam was subjected to one of history’s most spectacular instances of censorship (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#crv).

One facet of my reread of The Washington Connection was realizing how right Noam and Ed were in their writings about communism, especially in Southeast Asia and Vietnam in particular. What Ralph McGehee was finding out the hard way in Southeast Asia (http://ahealedplanet.net/mcgehee.htm#saigon), Noam and Ed had discovered through their scholarly work. During my studies, especially my studies since 2007, as I prepared to write my big essay, it became obvious that no life form likes being coerced, and that applies in spades to humans. Nobody wanted to become somebody’s slave, and in Fourth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal4) societies, the idea of slavery is evil, whereas slavery was a hallowed institution for the entire Third Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#slaverybeginning), only ending when the Fourth Epoch began (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#southseas), and slavery no longer made economic sense.

The Han Chinese (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Han_Chinese) are to China what white people are to North America, Australia, and elsewhere: invaders who displaced the natives and form the dominant population today. China’s history is a rich one, and during my studies, it became clear that places such as Japan, Korea, and Southeast Asia had long resisted China’s domination. Korea, like Tibet, Japan, and Vietnam, had long resisted being incorporated into China, and Korea was known as the Hermit Kingdom (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hermit_kingdom). The International Communist Conspiracy is one of the wildest and most untenable conspiracy theories of all time, but it was an official theory of the American government’s for generations, which Ralph discovered was an elaborate lie (http://ahealedplanet.net/mcgehee.htm#intelligence), used to justify imperial behavior. To the colonized peoples of Earth, communism had great appeal, but what they really wanted was simply freedom from white people’s domination. Their crime was wanting to be free, and the USA has murdered millions ever since World War II (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#toll1), when the international colonial order began unravelling, especially as the UK and France were so weakened by World War II, as the USA became the new imperial overlords.

In Vietnam, communism was part of the revolutionary ideology to throw off the imperial shackles, and throughout the colonized world, it was really about the rise of nationalism, not the capitalist versus communist false dichotomy (http://ahealedplanet.net/critics.htm#false) that the USA sold to its population. The benefits of industrialization were obvious to all colonial nations, and the first thing that they all did after winning at least formal ending of colonial status was attempting to industrialize (but you need cheap energy to do that (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#coaluse), which they usually did not have access to). The Soviet Union sold itself to former-colonial nations as a friend who could help them rapidly industrialize, and their motto was industrializing within a generation. But while Vietnam pursued communist ideology and methods, the last thing that they wanted was Soviet or Chinese domination, and the USA’s Big Lie of the Cold War was that those colonized peoples yearning for freedom were Soviet or Chinese pawns. JFK well understood what the colonized peoples wanted (https://kennedysandking.com/john-f-kennedy-reviews/muehlenbeck-philip-e-betting-on-the-africans) and took a very different path, quite different from all presidents that preceded or succeeded him, which was partly due to his Irish roots, as they were among the first peoples to feel the English boot across their necks (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ireland1). JFK was a decidedly reluctant imperialist, which had a lot to do with his murder (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/104-The-JFK-Assassination?p=1076&viewfull=1#post1076). All subsequent American presidents have been puppets and know it (http://ahealedplanet.net/journey.htm#presidents), although Trump may just be waking up to that fact.

For the peasants of Vietnam, communism had great appeal, and the USA knew full well that if the free election called for, when the French reconquest effort failed, would have been held, that Ho Chi Minh would have won 80% of the vote (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#early). So, the USA prevented such an election and continually escalated its tactics of thwarting the Vietnamese desire for freedom, leading to one of history’s most evil deeds, and we even outperformed the Nazis (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#newsweek) at times. Although Noam will disagree, maybe even violently, JFK was planning to withdraw the American military from Vietnam, and as with Martin Luther King, Jr., JFK’s stance on Vietnam may have been the last straw for those who had him murdered.

So, Vietnamese communism had great appeal to its peasantry. The peasants formed the communist “base” in Vietnam, and the last thing that the communists were going to do was alienate the peasants through violence. They didn’t need to. Perhaps the biggest of the Big Lies that the USA told about the communists of Southeast Asia was that they terrorized and coerced the peasantry. The opposite was true, as Ralph learned in Thailand (http://ahealedplanet.net/mcgehee.htm#colby). One the other hand, the regimes that the USA installed and propped up in Vietnam and throughout the colonized lands were murderous dictatorships with no allegiance to their populations (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#pehr). Ed and Noam called those “leaders” “denationalized,” and their allegiance was to each other and their American backers. There was no way that any of the USA’s puppets could ever win free elections in their countries, and the USA specialized in what Ed termed “Demonstration Elections (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#demonstration),” which were free in name only, and were basically PR stunts designed to delude the American people.

The American slaughters of Vietnamese peasants, who comprised 80% of Vietnam’s population (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#support), a typical proportion in agrarian societies, reached into the millions (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#vietnamdeaths). The My Lai massacre (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#atrocities) was only unusual in that it got publicity in the USA, and in its wake, the USA’s propaganda machine went into overdrive, trying to downplay My Lai as an anomaly, when it was really just a day at the office for the American genocidists. The media not only tried to portray the My Lai slaughter as an anomaly, but they played up Nixon’s “preventing a communist bloodbath (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#nixon)” Big Lie for the USA’s presence in Southeast Asia, which brings me to a Wikipedia article which shows what a chore I will have on my hands with Ed’s bio. The article (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Massacre_at_Hu%E1%BA%BF) is on the so-called “communist massacre” at Huế, which Ed and Noam called a “mythical bloodbath” in The Washington Connection, which built on their earlier writings on the subject (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#captured).

The main thrust of the Wikipedia article on the subject (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Massacre_at_Hu%E1%BA%BF) is pure propaganda. It is true that during the American bombardment of Huế, which was perhaps the most vicious and destructive of all of the USA’s attacks on Vietnam, and that is saying something, communist battle leaders did execute prisoners as they withdrew from Huế (easier than evacuating them, which is not unusual in warfare situations like that) with credible estimates ranging up to 700, which was likely fewer than the executions committed by the American-led forces after they conquered the city, which their bombardment largely reduced to rubble. Also, the communist military leaders were reprimanded by their leadership for executing prisoners, which was something that the USA never did, at least unless they were goaded into it with the My Lai incident, so they put Calley’s (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Calley) head on a platter while exonerating the system, as usual.

Those “captured documents (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Massacre_at_Hu%E1%BA%BF#Communist_documents_confirming_the_massacre)” from Huế were all either fabricated or mistranslated, such as the one that states:

“We eliminated 1,892 administrative personnel, 38 policemen, 790 tyrants, six captains, two first lieutenants, 20 second lieutenants, and many NCOs.”

Noam and Ed wrote about that sentence:

“…nowhere in the document is it claimed or even suggested that any civilians had been executed. Furthermore, the quoted sentence was taken out of the context of the document as a whole, which had nothing to do with the punishment of individuals, but was rather a low-level report, describing the military victory of the NLF in a particular district of Huế. But the press was too interested in reaffirming the cruelty of the Viet Cong to pay attention to such fine distinctions.”

Noam and Ed wrote that the French word in the document, “diet,” which Americans translated as “eliminated,” had no relationship to violence or executions. The “translation” of the document was a creative writing exercise by American propagandists.

If you read that Wikipedia article (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Massacre_at_Hu%E1%BA%BF), Douglas Pike’s work is given prominent weight on the “massacre,” but he eventually admitted that his job was being a propagandist. He was one of the greatest promoters of the “communist terror (https://www.vietnam.ttu.edu/star/images/231/2310402003a.pdf)” Big Lies, as Ralph discovered (http://ahealedplanet.net/mcgehee.htm#colby). Also, a Rand Corporation study is treated like the definitive document on the “massacre” in that article, when Rand’s role was largely providing imperial disinformation, which Noam and Ed noted in The Washington Connection. So, outright disinformation and propaganda dominates the article, while at least there was a section for “dispute (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Massacre_at_Hu%E1%BA%BF#Dispute),” which presented some of the facts that make a “communist massacre” problematic at best. But at the top of the article, the “massacre” count is 2,800 – 6,000, which is a wild exaggeration, off by about an order of magnitude.

I have experience (http://ahealedplanet.net/wikimass.htm) with how Wikipedia’s “editors” deal with massacres: if they are “ours,” they are simply erased, but if they are “theirs,” then any rumor will do, and outright disinformation is prominently used.

I could go on about the disinformation in that article, and the jingoists that are readily seen holding forth in the “talk page (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Massacre_at_Hu%E1%BA%BF)” on the article, but that is enough for now. When I see tripe like that parading as an encyclopedia article, I know that I will have my work cut out for me with Ed’s Wikipedia bio (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_S._Herman), which today is basically a propaganda piece, as it alleges Ed’s “genocide denial” regarding Cambodia, Yugoslavia, and Rwanda. In one way, it is a confirmation of what the Propaganda Model (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#manufacturing) predicts for “nefarious bloodbaths (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#predictions),” and when I write Ed’s Wikipedia bio, I will be stating that calling Ed a “genocide denier (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#yugoslavia1)” is just what the Propaganda Model predicted.

A bit of a seque here - I got a regular email notification this morning for discount ebooks, I get several each day.

What caught my attention is Ralph McGees CIA book. It's a selection from the "Forbidden Bookshelf" books on Amazon.

Quite a few interesting books on subjects such as:

Operation Phoenix
Viet Nam
JKF
Ronald Reagan and his connection to the mob
Zionist betrayal of Judaism
Friendly Fascism
the savings and loan scandal
the hidden history of the Korean war
psychological warfare

And much more, twenty-seven books in all.

Enjoy, much to ponder in these books. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07D5HPPWZ?ref=series_rw_dp_labf

Hi Latte:

I have several of those books. The CIA tried mightily to prevent Ralph’s book from being published (http://ahealedplanet.net/mcgehee.htm#secrecy). Then they tried to prevent it from being read, by literally buying copies off of the shelves. Then they made his life a living hell (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#mcgehee) until he finally went silent, and they still kept it up (http://ahealedplanet.net/mcgehee.htm#statement). Nice to see that it got reprinted.

Hi:

Scientists have discovered that social animals can develop cultures (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Animal_culture), which means local ways of doing things, via innovation and social learning. Culture is not the sole province of humanity; primates (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Animal_culture#Primate_culture), cetaceans (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Animal_culture#Cetacean_culture), birds (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Animal_culture#Avian_culture) and other animals (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Animal_culture#Culture_in_other_animals) have produced cultures. The culture that produced those distinctive stone “axes (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#oldowan)” you could say had orthodox production. That “orthodoxy (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#acheulean)” lasted more than one million years. The first orthodox practices (http://ahealedplanet.net/orthodox.htm#orthodoxy) had to arise because they worked. Worked for whom? First Epoch societies likely had dominance hierarchies, which went back to the beginnings of simians (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#rhesus1), and orthodoxy had to serve the dominants, at minimum. Among chimps, orthodoxy was partly about dominant males getting all of the mating opportunities, and slaughtering one’s neighbors and taking their land and choice females (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#coalitionary) was SOP among chimp societies.

When humans became hunter-gatherers that spread across Africa and Eurasia (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#migrate1), which began with Homo erectus (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#homoerectus), the human line likely created a managed egalitarianism, which I have recently seen described as “coalitions of losers,” to prevent any man from dominating the society. Psychopathic genes have likely been culled from humanity’s gene pool (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page5?p=649&viewfull=1#post649). Those dynamics likely lasted all the way until the Neolithic Revolution (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#kebaran), when agriculture was invented. Some anthropologists argue that the ascendance of women predated the Neolithic Revolution, but I have my doubts. Orthodox practice likely changed in the Neolithic, men began leaving their natal groups to mate (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#patrilineal1), and one of the human journey’s most peaceful times began. Also, during the short-lived Golden Age of the Hunter Gatherer (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#huntergatherer), while the easy meat lasted, life was easy and violence was likely rare, particularly between bands. It was peace and plenty, for a time, until the easy energy ran out.

Anthropologists have identified many prehistoric cultures, as evidenced by the artifacts that they left behind, those stone tools are the earliest preserved evidence, and stone technology became increasingly sophisticated (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#oldowan) over the many thousands of generations. Those artifacts provided evidence of the prevailing orthodoxies, which obviously extended far beyond stone tools. Without orthodoxy, there would have not been any intelligible language (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#language).

So, the development of culture and orthodoxy were key aspects of the human journey, without which we would not be here today. The rise of civilization (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#sumer) was obviously a great watershed in the human journey, Third Epoch societies have been the subject of avid investigation by anthropologists, and we also have recorded history (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#writing) to help them out. With the rise of civilization came elites (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#divinity), which was something new in the human journey. Scholars have stated that the history of human thought was really the history of elite thought, and I see their point. Writing was originally used by elites, and they increasingly defined what was orthodox and what wasn’t.

A key hypothesis among anthropologists is that when the Domestication Revolution began, people not only domesticated plants (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#kebaran) and animals (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#goat), but themselves. Also, the rise of elites was the rise of the psychopaths, as they had their day in the sun once more. The GCs (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc) are psychopathy on a global scale, and call me impressed with the GCs’ bag of tricks (http://ahealedplanet.net/risk.htm#risk). Psychopaths on their payroll were sicced on us (1 (http://ahealedplanet.net/hitman.htm), 2 (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#deputy), 3 (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/81-Vignettes-from-my-journey-and-how-I-learned-what-I-did-and-came-to-my-approach?p=206&viewfull=1#post206)), and they were very good at what they did. I witnessed their expert manipulations of people, preying on their greed, fear, and naïveté. It was quite an education, the kind that you can’t buy.

IMO, Steven Pinker is an imperial hack (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#pinker), hailing from the seat of the liberal establishment (and Ian Morris’s imperial work (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page12?p=1319&viewfull=1#post1319) hails from the other “liberal” coast). However, in his The Blank Slate (which I did not think was all that good), he discussed humanity’s “follow the crowd” predilections, and argued that such herd behavior was an evolutionary adaption to make societies operate more efficiently. I think that there is something to that. However, that same trait can also be highly maladaptive on individual and societal levels. I have watched people embrace certain death (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#doom) rather than question their conditioning. The lemming stampedes (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#lemmings) are something to behold, and may well lead to humanity’s demise (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#spaceshipearth). As I see it, the primary issues for righting humanity’s ship are those of integrity (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page6?p=708&viewfull=1#post708) and sentience (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#sentience1), not technology, as the technological means (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#underground) for the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5) were achieved long ago.

So, orthodoxy has had its purposes, but it can also be very maladaptive, as it is in many ways today.

Best,

Wade

Hi:

Living where I do, across the street from Microsoft’s headquarters, and being a user of the Internet, I can’t help but be aware of Bill Gates (http://ahealedplanet.net/lessons.htm#gates). Some page was thrust on me today on Gates’s reading recommendations, and here (http://time.com/4686426/bill-gates-book-recommendations/) is one of the many lists out there. Gates is big into Vaclav Smil (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vaclav_Smil), and I have a few of Smil’s books. They are nice compendiums and surveys, but Smil is not a big thinker. I read the end of his Energy in Nature and Society today, and he finished the book with quite a rant, going on about how high energy consumption was no guaranty of anything other than obesity and destroying the planet, and it ended with this sentence:

“Our best hope is that we will find the determination to make choices that would confirm the Linnaean designation of our species – sapiens.”

I almost had to laugh. It is a version of Brian’s query: Is humanity a sentient species (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#sentience1)?

Read Smil’s books, and not a word about Tesla (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#tesla), not a whiff of zero-point energy (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#zpf1), but it is about wringing more hydrocarbons out of the ground, although he acknowledges how global warming makes it a risky play. Smil’s prescription is about slicing up humanity’s scarce energetic pie more equitably. Another “reshuffle the deck of scarcity (http://ahealedplanet.net/roots.htm#politics)” prescription to our woes. Gates recommends Pinker’s imperial tripe (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/120-The-Integrity-Issue?p=1283&viewfull=1#post1283), and you will never hear a word about Uncle Noam or Ed (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm).

That is the kind of mainstream “leading thought” out there. Gates, Smil, and Pinker are not helping, and Gates literally promotes nuclear fission (http://www.businessinsider.com/bill-gates-talks-private-nuclear-fission-plant-terrapower-2016-4). These are the mainstream’s “visionaries” and leading thinkers.

The greatest wipeout of alternative energy in world history (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#run) happened in Seattle, while Gates was grubbing after his billions, and he seems to have been entirely oblivious to it. It is kind of surreal to understand how the world works, on vital issues of human survival, to see all of those talking heads with their heads buried deeply in the sand. Brian was beside himself over that situation, as he was shut out of “progressive” venues that feted doomsayers such as Heinberg (http://ahealedplanet.net/hooked.htm). The biggest event in the human journey (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5) won’t come easily.

Hi:

Orthodoxy serves those who profit by it. Ideally, that would mean all of a society’s members, but in practice, its utility in serving elite interests has been the primary criterion for orthodoxy’s reign in Third and Fourth Epoch societies. Orthodoxy is rarely where innovation (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#theorists) hails from. Innovation generally comes from the fringes, just as most biological innovation likely sprang from marginal creatures (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#energysurplus). With the rise of classes (a Third Epoch phenomenon (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#divinity)), orthodoxy has increasingly served the dominant class at the expense of the others.

Today’s global rackets (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/forums/21-The-rackets) all work via rigidly enforced orthodoxies, and all attempts to innovate from the fringes are ruthlessly crushed (or stolen (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#steal), if they can be used in the rackets – all of Mr. Mentor’s inventions (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#glimpse) were either stolen or suppressed). The GCs (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/108-The-Global-Controllers) are the popes of the rackets, enforcing the orthodoxies from their hidden thrones. It is easy to blame them for the current situation, but virtually everybody plays along (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#lemmings), giving their power away, shuffling along with the herd, embracing certain death (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#doom) rather than questioning their conditioning, cheering the slaughter of helpless enemies (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#cheer), campaigning against family members who are being attacked by the media (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=400492&viewfull=1#post400492), and so on. For the herd’s size, the shepherd’s task is surprisingly easy (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#manage), and most of the racketeering is done in the name of protecting the public, which is the greatest protection racket on Earth (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#patent1), as it enforces the orthodoxies. And almost nobody on Earth writes about these subjects with any knowledge, interest, or the realization that we all own a piece of this situation (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#responsibility). There really aren’t any victims (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#weakness) in this dark dance, and we can change it (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir). In fact, if we act like victims, we are guaranteed to not change anything.

Of course, there are technologies on Earth today that make several of the rackets immediately obsolete. Free energy technology is very real (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#underground), which would not only end the energy industry as we know it, but it would be the engine of abundance, and the idea of war (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#warreason1) would become meaningless (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#peacekeeping). Economic exchange would also become meaningless, so there go the banks (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#exchange), too, and none too soon (http://ahealedplanet.net/savings.htm#subprime). The idea of economic racketeering would no longer make sense, and the other rackets would quickly disintegrate, as they are all founded on scarcity. End scarcity, and so go the rackets, as the very reason for their existence vanishes. Of course, the GCs know that too, so they strive mightily (http://ahealedplanet.net/risk.htm#graph) to keep free energy, alternative medicine (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#suppress), and other racket-wrecking innovations at bay, and the public aids and abets them, in their semi-sentient state.

But just because orthodoxy is unbelievably corrupt does not automatically confer validity or virtue to the fringes. Charlatans (http://ahealedplanet.net/orthodox.htm#charlatans), the deluded, and the incompetent riddle the fringes, too. In the end, it comes down to my journey’s primary lesson: personal integrity is the world’s scarcest commodity (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page6?p=708&viewfull=1#post708), and that fact explains what we see. No need to blame any “bad guys (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#serving),” as they are just masters of a game that virtually all humans play.

Hi:

I am reading Noam and Ed’s After the Cataclysm and performing the very disagreeable task of dealing with their critics. First of all, to call Noam and Ed apologists for the Khmer Rouge (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#cambodia) is fraudulent, but their critics constantly fall all over themselves to make that bogus claim. To anybody with the slightest familiarity with their political work, it began with the American invasion of Vietnam (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#early) and was always focused on the crimes of their nation, which is the highest ethical ground that one can stand on. It is similar to Jesus’s admonition to attend to the logs in one’s own eyes, not seek the splinters in their neighbors’. It is all about that rare commodity, integrity (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/120-The-Integrity-Issue?p=1280&viewfull=1#post1280). Their censored Counter-Revolutionary Violence (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#crv) was about how the American establishment, including the media, dealt with bloodbaths, based on their political-economic utility. When they finally got something published that was not censored, it became the focus of “genocide denial” claims ever since.

If you are an American (or the USA is your adoptive nation, as it is for Steven Pinker (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#pinker) and Ian Morris (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/120-The-Integrity-Issue?p=1283&viewfull=1#post1283)), the only high ethical ground is to deal with your nation’s contributions to the humanitarian disasters that it has inflicted on the world, especially in nations that it violently attacked, and the USA is second to none in that category since World War II (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#toll1). Nobody else comes remotely close.

So, on the subject of Cambodia, “genocide denial,” and the crimes of the Khmer Rouge, in virtually every instance that I saw, the prominent people charging the Khmer Rouge with monstrous crimes where white people, and almost always Americans. In addition, while they heaped all of the responsibility for the catastrophe in Cambodia on the Khmer Rouge’s shoulders, I have yet to see an instance where they failed to minimize the American role, even though its bombs were devastating that nation, creating two million refugees (around a quarter of the population) by the time of the Khmer Rouge’s victory.

In Ed’s critique (http://www.coldtype.net/Assets.12/PDFs/0812.PinkerCrit.pdf) of Steven Pinker’s The Better Angels of our Nature (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/120-The-Integrity-Issue?p=1280&viewfull=1#post1280), he noted how Pinker ignored scholars such as Drèze and Sen in favor of Rudolf Rummel, who hailed from the extreme far right. In Rummel’s work, he put the number of Vietnamese civilians subjected to American “democide” at about 5,000 people. No kidding. That is the “scholar” that Pinker used lavishly in Better Angels, while ignoring scholars such as Drèze and Sen, and Sen is a fellow professor at Harvard (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amartya_Sen) and won the Nobel Prize in Economics.

Rummel was way out there, but look at the respectful Wikipedia article on him (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rudolph_Rummel). In fact, I could not find a critical word about him or his work in his Wikipedia bio, although it at least acknowledged that he was an enthusiastic supporter of the invasion of Iraq (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rudolph_Rummel#Political_views). Bruce Sharp, an American, of course, has a site devoted to the Khmer Rouge’s crimes (http://www.mekong.net/), and to the very slight extent that he dealt with the American contribution, he could be counted on to minimize the American role. You will look in vain on his site for much on that subject. His attacks on Noam are prominent, to the extent of calling Noam and Ed’s work “evil (http://www.mekong.net/cambodia/media1.htm).” This is a nice dissection of Sharp’s tripe (http://www.flagrancy.net/khmerchomsky.html).

When I see those American experts on Khmer Rouge atrocities, who don’t even acknowledge the American role in the catastrophe or they use “scholars” such as Rummel to minimize it, it can be a pretty sickening experience.

These are days of heavy lifting, and I hope they end soon.

Best,

Wade

Survival of the Friendliest: Homo sapiens Evolved via Selection for Prosociality (https://pdfs.semanticscholar.org/94f0/dda4e037460ba60830adbc0d348d6e77021e.pdf)

There is a set of videos on Domestication & Human Evolution (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u1fNCTg0f4E&index=9&list=PLepHs0thoryOEZpFaYJNo8-7jzXmKU1XI). Interesting.
It unfortunate that psychopaths rule humanity, getting off from their grip won't be easy and impossible without FE, which they actively prevent.

Thanks Krishna:

Yes indeed, since Darwin, the idea that humans have domesticated themselves has been a prominent idea. Interesting paper, and what I found particularly interesting is how Wrangham’s formerly ridiculed Cooking Hypothesis (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#cooking) has been cited more frequently over the years, and called “strong” in that paper. On the video, maybe one day.

Almost funnily, yesterday I also came upon a paper (https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-018-04375-6) that argues that men almost drove themselves to extinction (https://nypost.com/2018/05/31/men-nearly-caused-human-extinction-7000-years-ago-new-theory-states/) by warfare, in the ultimate Hobbesian scenario (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#hobbes). The Rousseau/Hobbes battle among anthropologists is alive and well. I seem to be one of the few people out there that argues that both are true. When there was plenty of energy to go around, it was a golden age (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#goldenages) of peace and plenty. When the easy energy ran out, it was a battle to the death. One of my favorite Star Trek (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-D2SHNqkjbY) clips sums it up well (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0708640/quotes).

Thanks Krishna (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1227214&viewfull=1#post1227214):

The whole paper is here (https://anthro.utah.edu/graduate-study/PNAS-2018-Wrangham-245-53.pdf). Always good to read Wrangham. Good stuff. I think that I’ll reply to his paper in a way that will make it into my new thread on comprehensive thinking (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/121-Orthodoxy-the-Fringes-Structuralism-Conspiracism-Materialism-Mysticism-etc?p=1336&viewfull=1#post1336). Human aggression certainly has evolutionary roots, and as you and I have written (as has de Waal, etc.), humans have aspects of both chimp and bonobo behavior. But I think that in the past 10,000 years, and probably the past 60,000 years, variations in human proactive and reactive aggression had everything to do with the economic situation. In a world of plenty, proactive aggression made little sense (raiding one’s neighbors, for example), and reactive aggression is almost always going to be some kind of scarcity reaction (fighting over food, mates, space). In a world of abundance (http://ahealedplanet.net/abund.htm#abundance), both proactive and reactive aggression will largely vanish.

Hi:

While doing my reread of After the Cataclysm, and reading what their critics have to say (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/105-My-Edward-Herman-biography-project/page2?p=1341&viewfull=1#post1341) once more, it can be mind-boggling to see how Noam and Ed were attacked with lies and irrationality (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#cambodia), from professors and other “intellectuals.” Noam has been the world’s most prominent intellectual for the past 50 years, although brainwashed Americans would not know it. His work can be censored (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#crv), and when TPTB cannot do that, he is attacked with a chorus of lies, issuing from leading “intellectuals.” Incredible.

If they could do that to Noam, how hard is it to amass a parade of liars about Dennis? I put Dennis’s name into Google, and the first thing that comes up is Mr. Skeptic’s article (https://www.csicop.org/si/show/examining_the_amazing_free-energy_claims_of_dennis_lee), which is actually criminal libel (http://ahealedplanet.net/dennis.htm#article). Virtually the entire first page of results comes from the “skeptics” and other liars. On the second page is my essay (https://ahealedplanet.net/dennis.htm) on Dennis and his critics. I have yet to see one of his critics ever deal the slightest bit honestly about his past, as he put the world’s best heating system on people’s homes for free (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/111-The-Free-Energy-Field-s-State-of-Arrested-Development?p=1221&viewfull=1#post1221). And that barrage of disinformation easily dupes the credulous (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/94-My-last-posts-in-another-forum?p=639&viewfull=1#post639).

The issue, as always, is about integrity (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/120-The-Integrity-Issue?p=1280&viewfull=1#post1280) and sentience (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#sentience1), both of which are in short supply, and particularly with intellectuals, bizarrely. When I see that, I really wonder if humanity has a prayer (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#spaceshipearth). One thing is for sure: establishment science, so-called “intellectuals,” the rackets (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/forums/21-The-rackets), and the like are not where the answers will hail from.

How time flies. It seems like just yesterday that the 50th anniversary of JFK’s murder passed, and in a few days, the 50th anniversary of RFK’s murder will pass. Both were taken out in spook operations (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#jfk) that were covered up by the official “investigations.” I am planning to write on Noam and JFK in my new comprehensive thread (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/121-Orthodoxy-the-Fringes-Structuralism-Conspiracism-Materialism-Mysticism-etc?p=1336&viewfull=1#post1336). Noam got that one wrong, IMO. Mike Parenti’s take (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#parenti) was the best from the Left, and Ed also entertained the idea that JFK was taken out by the spooks (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/115-The-Spooks?p=1257&viewfull=1#post1257).

Hi:

The term structuralism (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structuralism_(disambiguation)) is found in many fields of inquiry, but is generally concerned with how things work. It looks at interrelationships and dynamics. A related and even synonymous term is functionalism (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_functionalism). Back when I was still a teenager, after my mystical awakening (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#silva) and during my collegiate scientific studies, I saw the battles between Biblical “intelligent design” advocates and evolutionists/materialists. It seemed to be a battle between two fundamentalist camps, and those battles continue to this day.

Uncle Ed’s Propaganda Model (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#manufacturing) is a structural model of how the American media works. In discussing it, Ed noted that we cannot know what the thinking is of the media personnel and mavens (we are generally not mind-readers), and Ed contended that what they thought was unknown and unknowable, and was irrelevant to how the model worked. Ed did not deny that some knew what they were doing and some didn’t (and just followed the herd of mainstream assumptions and reporting), and that elites could directly intervene when their interests were threatened, but that what they thought was “unknowable and irrelevant.” In his The Myth of the Liberal Media, Ed went into great detail on what the Propaganda Model was (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#subsequent). Intent was just not part of the model, even though he acknowledged that the model did not preclude elite intent and intervention. These distinctions can be subtle and tricky.

When Barbara McClintock picked up her Nobel Prize (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/62-Building-the-Choir?p=1309&viewfull=1#post1309), she challenged scientists to discover how organisms directed their evolution, which to this day flies in the face of materialist thought, in which everything is one big accident and evolution is driven by DNA replication errors. In the sciences, especially human studies (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structuralism_(disambiguation)), there is a school of structuralist thought. Heck, my epochal framework (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochaltable) can be a called a structuralist model, and I would not mind the label too much, but I also will not say that people are automatons, with their minds straightjacketed by the economic (energetic) realities of their Epochs. Some could rise above those limitations, even spectacularly (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#infinite), although few ever did. Those structural constraints were powerful coercive forces over how people thought and behaved. Try to find an agrarian civilization in which women were not denigrated (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#womenstatus1), were supposed to “know their place,” etc. That did not change until industrialization and the related demographic transition (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#demographic), and humanity’s transition into the Fourth Epoch is far from complete.

Structuralist models are helpful for understanding how things work, but there has also been the tendency to argue that anything outside of the model’s field of inquiry did not exist, and that is arguably the greatest failing of structuralist and functionalist approaches. Those approaches became the foundation of the Fourth Epoch religion known as materialism (http://ahealedplanet.net/conun.htm#subtle). Because intent is not “known or knowable,” there has been a tendency to act as if it does not exist, and enlightened scientists have pointed out that lapse of logic, from Schroedinger (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#schroedinger) to Knoll (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#mystical2) to Ruddiman (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page5?p=569&viewfull=1#post569), but it has not stopped the onslaught of materialist thought that issues from the “skeptics (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#skeptic)” and others.

It took me many years to begin to understand what was driving both camps, and it really began coming clear when I resumed my studies in 2003, after finishing the 2002 version of my site, and I articulated the issue in my “Conspiracism and Structuralism (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#conspiracism)” section of my 2007 essay that brought Brian back into my life (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#intro). The conspiracist framework is generally about how elites act in concert to achieve their desired outcomes, at the expense of the rest of us. I am the last person who will deny their machinations (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/108-The-Global-Controllers?p=1167&viewfull=1#post1167), but I always argue that it is what the rest of us do that is vastly more important. Yes, the masses have abdicated their responsibility (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#lemmings) for the state of affairs as they play the victim, and both conspiracists and structuralists have done that (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#weakness). The victim mentality won’t get us anywhere. We need to think and act like creators if we want to make a dent (that combined positive intention (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gcfocus) that Brian wrote of), and creators create with love (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#greatest).

Before this thread (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/121-Orthodoxy-the-Fringes-Structuralism-Conspiracism-Materialism-Mysticism-etc?p=1336&viewfull=1#post1336) is finished, I am going to get into the structuralist versus conspiracist perspectives on issues such as the JFK hit (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/104-The-JFK-Assassination?p=1076&viewfull=1#post1076) and the free energy/ET cover-ups (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#spacemining). They are all related, especially with what E. Howard Hunt told Doug Caddy (http://educationforum.ipbhost.com/topic/20494-bill-decker-and-john-tower/?do=findComment&comment=321167). A comprehensive perspective takes in both the structuralist and conspiracist perspectives, sees them as parts of the whole, and acknowledges that both have their virtues and limitations.

Best,

Wade

Hi:

In line with the theme of this thread’s first post (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/121-Orthodoxy-the-Fringes-Structuralism-Conspiracism-Materialism-Mysticism-etc?p=1336&viewfull=1#post1336), the next dyad to discuss is materialism and mysticism. As with the rest of them, it really pivots on the integrity issue (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/120-The-Integrity-Issue?p=1280&viewfull=1#post1280). Materialism is a very seductive faith (http://ahealedplanet.net/conun.htm#subtle), especially for the “smart,” and virtually all of my fellow free energy travelers were being steeped in that religion, as scientists or scientists-in-training, when we had our mystical awakenings (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=312&viewfull=1#post312). Brian was a relatively old man, not having his awakening until he was nearly 40 (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#remote). The rest of us had ours by our early 20s, and usually as teenagers or earlier. Once we had our mystical awakenings, we could never again sit in those materialistic pews. Before Brian awoke, his peers’ favorite activity was ridiculing the paranormal, and if they were honest about it, they would admit that they were defending their faith as they sipped their sherry (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#oneill). Once Brian woke up, he realized that he no longer belonged and began his exit from the Establishment. I’ll allow that materialism is the religion of younger souls (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#age), who have little interest or talent in pursuing the inward journey (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#age3). It seems to be a phase that all souls go through, and since the Fourth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal4) is the Epoch of Young Souls, that religion is appropriate (while they deny that is a religion :) ). The greatest scientists saw through the game (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#mystical) and acknowledged its irrationality, but it has not stopped the priest class of materialism from arising, it is just another criminal enterprise (http://ahealedplanet.net/dennis.htm#friends), and they easily dupe the credulous (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/94-My-last-posts-in-another-forum?p=639&viewfull=1#post639), just like in all fields.

When we had our mystical awakenings, we began exploring those realms, but with the discernment of scientists. As with everything else, we encountered the genuine and the bogus, and in my case, I came of age during the rise of the New Age (http://ahealedplanet.net/purpose.htm#newage) in Southern California, and had seen it all by age 30, when I had my big awakening (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#mr), the one that radicalized me. As with all other areas of endeavor, in a world of scarcity and fear (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#coming), personal integrity is the world’s scarcest commodity (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page6?p=708&viewfull=1#post708). The New Age scene was full of “gurus” whose primary predilection was getting, as I colorfully put it, “paid and laid,” and the suckers lined up, usually New Age housewives seeking enlightened men (http://ahealedplanet.net/opinions.htm#mystical).

I was driven from my home by a hippie cult (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/102-Intentional-Communities?p=1012&viewfull=1#post1012) whose theme was “love,” visited other “intentional communities” that were usually cults of one kind or another, led by some guru who sampled the fruits, and it was kind of a standard racket. A saw endless charlatanry. Not so much that they faked their abilities, although some certainly did (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/60-The-Mystical-Path-Materialism-and-the-Free-Energy-Pursuit?p=79&viewfull=1#post79), but they used their talents to get paid and laid, attracting a flock to be fleeced, and the rest of that tawdry spectacle. On one hand, I can see the casual observer being repulsed by it, and anybody who is looking for an excuse to dismiss the mystical by the scandalous behavior of those in the field does not have to work very hard. On the other, their behavior was not so different from the criminal “skeptics (http://ahealedplanet.net/dennis.htm#article),” the historians who sold their souls (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#objectivity) to the winds of wealth and power, the academics who assailed Noam and Ed (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#criticisms), the media whores (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#big), the doctors who kill off their patients (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#system) with the “approved” treatments, “experts” who sold industrial waste as medicine (http://ahealedplanet.net/fluoride.htm), and so on. So, picking on the charlatanry of Sai Baba or Love Israel is easy to do, and examples like them can be held up in all of the rackets (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/forums/21-The-rackets).

Again, it is always an issue of the bogus versus the genuine, and the search is not easy (http://ahealedplanet.net/orthodox.htm#layman). For the serious seeker, there is more than enough meat (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#research) to sink one’s teeth into, but it is also easy to lose one’s footing and float off into realms of delusion. People need to have their feet firmly planted on the ground to navigate these realms, and there are many casualties to be found along the way.

Hi:

I am about halfway through my reread of Noam and Ed’s After the Cataclysm (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#second), and I am in their Cambodia chapter. I first wrote about it nearly 20 years ago (http://ahealedplanet.net/critics.htm#crv), and it is still one heck of a read. After all these years, it is really something to read Ed and Noam’s work, and then read the hack attacks on it. For instance, the first paragraph of After the Cataclysm states:

“We will consider the facts about postwar Indochina insofar as they can be ascertained, but a major emphasis will be on the ways in which these facts have been interpreted, filtered, distorted or modified by the ideological institutions of the West.”

They really could not have been more explicit, and they repeated that emphasis several times in After the Cataclysm, but that did not prevent a major international campaign by the world’s “intellectuals” to lie about what Noam and Ed wrote (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#cambodia).

The full title of their book is After the Cataclysm: Postwar Indochina and the Reconstruction of Imperial Ideology, and the part about reconstructing imperial ideology was explicit in the book and was a theme of theirs ever since. After the war was over, the spin doctors in the USA began framing the USA’s genocide as “blundering efforts to do good (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#vietnam1)” and other outright lies. What the USA did was never a crime, but a “tragic error” in bringing the light to the world with its bombs and murders.

Noam and Ed made astute comparisons of the USA’s apologetics with Nazi Germany’s. Hermann Goering (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#goering), while being interrogated at Nuremberg, said that the genocide of the Jews was not a crime, but a “vast political blunder; many would have made good nationalists and joined in the Liquidation of the communists. If only Hitler had not confused the issues….” Klaus Barbie (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Klaus_Barbie), during his comfortable “retirement” in Bolivia, after rendering his heroic service to U.S. intelligence (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Klaus_Barbie#US_intelligence_and_Bolivia), like Gehlen and so many others (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#gehlen), said about the Jewish genocide, “the mass killings of Jews constituted a grave error. Many of the SS officers believed that the Jews could have been put to better use building roads to facilitate the advance of our troops.” They weren’t crimes, but mistakes.

At the Dachau museum, which I visited in 1974 (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#europe), the Washington Post quoted the museum’s director as saying about the corporate use of slave labor, “It is a guilt never acknowledged here and rarely spoken about in our history books.”

In 2009, Ed and Noam noted that the American media was already treating the invasion of Iraq in the same terms (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#pm20), while the occupation was ongoing. Ours are always noble efforts.

I attended the California equivalent of Adolf Hitler Grammar School (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#serra), in a town with a lovingly preserved mission, which was the concentration camp that was the instrument of genocide, so this is a subject near and dear to me.

More heavy lifting, but it should be done soon.

Hi:

Briefly, before I resume my busy day, my Ed bio project (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/105-My-Edward-Herman-biography-project?p=1089&viewfull=1#post1089), and noting how fraudulent the academics and intellectuals are in their attacks, and how Dennis was subjected to far more spectacular and even deadly attacks (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/105-My-Edward-Herman-biography-project/page2?p=1344&viewfull=1#post1344), are partly done to help disabuse people of the social approach to free energy (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level10), as well as the many other delusional approaches (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#approaches). They won’t work. There is no student body, university, or “progressive (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#beseeching2)” institution, much less any Establishment institution (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#beseeching1), such as those in Washington, D.C., that is going to help with this Epochal task. I constantly get free energy newbies who think that their social circle has the right stuff, and that is their egos and naïveté talking, but it is a typical lesson to learn, even a necessary one, to come to the understanding that virtually nobody is home (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialcircle), anywhere on Earth. It is just the reality of the planet we live on, and there is no use judging it (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#judge1), but pursuing what might work.

Only when the awakened (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=309&viewfull=1#post309) really awaken to that reality are they going to be any use for what I am doing. Otherwise, they chase their delusions that lead nowhere, and they can get wrecked lives and worse out of the deal. I learned these lessons the hard way myself. Again, my best students almost always do that for a little while, until they realize its futility (they were trying the easy way out), and then they come to me, ready to do the work and learn. Only then can progress be made with my approach (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir). But time is short (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#spaceshipearth). This path is teaching me patience (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#reading). :)

Hi:

Today is the 50th anniversary of Robert F. Kennedy’s murder. I recall seeing my mother watch JFK’s funeral when I was five, but I was ten when RFK was murdered, only an hour’s drive from where I lived, and it is a vivid memory. If anybody thinks that one of those murders was due to a conspiracy, they have to suspect that both were. The Kennedy family themselves (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#jfk) thinks that they were related. A person’s head has to be buried deeply in the sand to not suspect that those murders were related. But, amazingly, I have encountered people who think that they are unrelated crimes, even though they think that they solved JFK’s murder. That is a close cousin to the tunnel vision that has plagued scientific specialists, which Bucky Fuller (http://ahealedplanet.net/roots.htm#fuller) said was encouraged by the ruling class (http://ahealedplanet.net/roots.htm#slave), to keep scientists lost in the weeds, never seeing the bigger picture. Generalists see the connections (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#specialists), and comprehensive thinkers (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#developing) try to combine the detail-orientation of the specialist with the big-picture orientation of the generalist, which is no easy trick, but scientists today are trained to think that way, although their naïveté is a big problem (http://ahealedplanet.net/roots.htm#naive), which helps to prevent them from truly understanding how our world works.

It is not hard at all to see the connections between the deaths of JFK and RFK, and in a word: Rockefeller (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#rockefeller1). The Dulles brothers (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#dulles) were Rockefeller fixers from the beginnings of their careers. Richard Nixon was their creature. The Bush family worked for the Rockefellers back in the 1800s (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samuel_P._Bush#Career). David Rockefeller publicly challenged JFK’s policies, and after JFK was murdered, his Alliance for Progress (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alliance_for_Progress) became a Rockefeller tool and the antithesis of what JFK’s intentions for it were. Overthrowing Latin American governments became an American specialty after JFK’s murder, and the Dulles brothers began that parade with their overthrow of Guatemala’s government on behalf of Rockefeller interests (but those events go way back (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#panama)). E Howard Hunt ran the Bay of Pigs operation, led the operation that got JFK killed (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#tower), was involved in overthrowing Guatemala’s government (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E._Howard_Hunt#CIA_and_anti-Castro_efforts), and his statement to Douglas Caddy is amazing (http://educationforum.ipbhost.com/topic/20494-bill-decker-and-john-tower/?do=findComment&comment=321167), but consistent with what I know (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ufo2).

George Bush the First was involved in the Bay of Pigs operation (and later ran the CIA and stonewalled new president Jimmy Carter on the UFO/ET issue (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/97-Steven-Greer-s-Latest-UFO-ET-Disclosure-Effort?p=938&viewfull=1#post938)), JFK fired Allen Dulles over it, and Dulles soon led the “investigation” into JFK’s murder, with Rockefeller tool John McCloy (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_J._McCloy), and the “lone nut” angle was being promoted within days of JFK’s murder. Dulles primed the other Warren Commission members before they even convened, sending them all a “lone nut” book. Gerald “Magic Bullet (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page8?p=762&viewfull=1#post762)” Ford was there when Nixon was taken out, to step up, and Nelson Rockefeller was right behind him. Two “lone nuts” immediately tried to take out Ford, and Nelson nearly became the second president who was never on a ballot, and Ford was the first. When Reagan became president, a “lone nut” immediately tried to take him out, and the “nut” was a friend of the Bush family. This stuff is not even all that subtle.

All of the “lone nut” assassins, from JFK to Reagan, including those who shot Martin Luther King, Jr., George Wallace (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#wallace), and John Lennon, had connections to intelligence operations. The guy who shot Lennon worked for the organization that was run by the father of the Reagan shooter. My personal opinion is that taking out JFK worked so well that the spooks (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/115-The-Spooks?p=1257&viewfull=1#post1257) had their heyday for a generation, taking out political figures at will, with a lone nut “assassin” served up each time.

David Rockefeller actively managed the Empire clear into his 90s, calling Dennis at home (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page13?p=888&viewfull=1#post888), just before the feds ran him out of the country. It did not matter that the sitting president’s energy adviser was one of Dennis’s fans (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=694872&viewfull=1#post694872). The Rockefellers owned the Bushes. The Rockefellers were involved (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=598&viewfull=1#post598) more than once in wiping us out. But the Rockefellers are not at the top (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc), if they ever were. Slaughtering American political figures was more of a domestic issue than a global one. I’ll write more on this subject soon.

Hi:

Sociality and enlightenment are two very different things, and I see them confused all of the time. Sociality is an evolutionary adaptation (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialreason) that allows members of a species to come together and enhance their chances of survival. Because humans are social animals, sociality is a constant theme. Seeking and maintaining acceptance by one’s in-group drives a great deal of human interaction, and the threat of ostracism is one of humanity’s greatest fears. Ostracism used to be a death sentence (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#banishment), so the fear of ostracism and the desire for in-group acceptance are powerful motivations for people, but all that it does is help people survive via their in-group status, and the out-group can go to hell (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ingroup1), especially when they are vying for scarce resources, and energy most of all. The golden ages of the human journey (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#goldenages) were when energy was relatively plentiful.

It might feel good to be socially accepted, but that has got nothing to do with enlightenment or love. People continually advocate the social approach to free energy (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level10), when it has never gotten anywhere, nor will it, as sociality is based on fear and survival, and the GCs (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc) are the masters of that game, as they use people’s greed (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#greed) and fear against them, especially in a nation in which greed is a virtue (http://ahealedplanet.net/intro.htm#greed). Sociality is ultimately egocentric, never looking beyond the in-group’s welfare, as a way to ensure one’s own. Sociality is no way to achieve the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/96-Human-sociality-and-free-energy?p=925&viewfull=1#post925), and plays into the free energy field’s state of arrested development (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/111-The-Free-Energy-Field-s-State-of-Arrested-Development?p=1217&viewfull=1#post1217). We have to aim far higher than that (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir) if we want to make a dent.

In a way, sociality is on the other end of the spectrum from enlightenment, and I’ll agree that the pinnacle of enlightenment is what Michael (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#michael) says that the Infinite Spirit (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#infinite) attains; its message is that we are all one (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#nature), and that the Great Goal of all sentient species is attaining love, which is the energy of Creation (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#greatest). That is not the love of self that dark pathers (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#serving) attain, but the love of others, which spiritual masters (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#transcendental) attain. The only path to the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5) with a prayer in today’s environment is combined positive intention (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gcfocus), which Brian advocated, and when people are focused on a goal, social jockeying becomes meaningless.

It takes a comprehensive perspective (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#developing) to winnow the wheat from the chaff, see the forest from the trees, and aim for the root instead of hack at branches. I am going to present some case studies of comprehensive thinking, to show what I mean, but nothing that I ever write will surpass my big essay (http://ahealedplanet.net/home.htm#forum), as far as comprehensive thought goes, and my site as a whole (http://ahealedplanet.net/home.htm) is an exercise in comprehensive thought, which is an Old Artisan (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#reading) undertaking if there ever was one.

Time to begin my busy day.

Best,

Hi:

As usual, the spring hiking has been blessed. I have been hiking plenty, enjoying the flowers, taking friends out hiking, etc. Attached are some pics from this spring. Some scenes remind me of that Hildebrandt pic of Gandalf’s return. Hiking in that will never get old. I am hoping for a good hiking year, as apposed to last year (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page10?p=1146&viewfull=1#post1146), and it has started out good.

Hi:

Orwell (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#orwell) called orthodox thinking a form of unconsciousness, and wrote (in his censored preface to Animal Farm) that trading one flavor of Kool-Aid for another (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#orwell) was not exactly “progress.” The mind-boggling part of that is that the so-called “smart” are often the most trapped in their ideological cages. I saw it many times with Level 3s (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level3), and it has really been something to study for Ed’s biography project (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/105-My-Edward-Herman-biography-project?p=1089&viewfull=1#post1089), as I will likely be doing for years. In The Political Economy of Human Rights (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#second), which was a prelude to Manufacturing Consent (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#manufacturing), Noam and Ed were crystal clear on how the propaganda system works, and the response to their work proved their point. Initially, their work was censored (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#crv), in one of the most outrageous instances of censorship in the 20th century. That did not work, and The Political Economy of Human Rights was their censored version beefed up by nearly an order of magnitude.

Their thesis and support for it were undeniable, so their critics completely ignored the thrust of their work and tried to twist it into their being apologists for Pol Pot, which was the furthest thing from what their work was about. Noam and Ed knew it was coming and tried to forestall that attack (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#cambodia), but it was a futile effort, as the propaganda barrage overwhelmed their arguments in the public eye. Ed’s current Wikipedia bio (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_S._Herman) is Exhibit A on how the propaganda system works, and we’ll see how my upcoming battle with the hacks goes. Academics and professors led the attacks on Noam and Ed, incredibly. A five-year-old could see how irrational their attacks were. But all manner of pundit attacked Noam and Ed with outright lies and obfuscations, and never addressed their thesis or evidence, as they tried mightily to twist their work into something unrecognizable to those familiar with Noam and Ed’s work. It was beyond insane, but as Ed and Noam wrote (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#ed), those irrational pundits were usually not intentionally lying (although many did), but were incapable of being rational when their self-serving faith was challenged. While that may seem to absolve them of responsibility, it also brings up Brian’s question (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#sentience1): are we a sentient species? It is just more proof of my journey’s primary lesson (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page6?p=708&viewfull=1#post708), which I learned 30 years ago. Dennis was arrested (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#jail) 30 years ago this month, and then my nightmare truly began. When the dust settled a couple of years later (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page7?p=734&viewfull=1#post734), I had been radicalized and would never see the world the same way again, and it prepared me for work such as Noam and Ed’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#big).

This insanity can be seen in all manner of ideological addiction, and as Noam stated many times, a good propaganda system will have the appearance of rigorous debate, but only within the narrow confines of self-serving assumptions (that are clearly false, to anybody not drinking the Kool-Aid). As the Nazis did (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/105-My-Edward-Herman-biography-project/page2?p=1347&viewfull=1#post1347), the American pundits, virtually without exception, framed our evil activities in Southeast Asia as “tragic errors” and “blundering attempts to do good,” when the facts (always suppressed or ignored) show that that was the furthest thing from the motivation of the war planners (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#kennan) and others. Imperialism has always been, and always will be, evil in its motivation. It is all about conquering, plundering, and exterminating distant peoples for the benefit of the imperial capital and the “settlers (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#english).” Academics such as Ian Morris (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page12?p=1319&viewfull=1#post1319) argue that those evil activities have made the world safer and more prosperous, as Morris cheers on the empire from his cushy berth. What an argument to make, and what a prescription for the future (shudder). There is a different path to take (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir), but time is short (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#spaceshipearth).

Hi:

Before I write the Wikipedia article (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Political_Economy_of_Human_Rights) on Noam and Ed’s first books that weren’t censored (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#crv), I’ll be revising Ed’s bio a little, especially the chapter on those books (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#second). I expect that I will be spending this summer’s “spare” time on those tasks, as I write Ed’s bio at Wikipedia, to replace the hack version, and then the battles will likely begin. I spent time today beefing up Ed’s quotes (https://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Edward_S._Herman#Quotes), for his and Noam’s writings on Cambodia and the propaganda system. I have less than 100 pages left of my reread of their 750-page version of their originally censored work, and I then will get to some serious writing.

One aspect of this task that is very pleasant, so to speak, is digesting the work of two brilliant scholars of high compassion and integrity, as they discuss issues of great import that have only received the propaganda treatment in the American media. Noam has been the world’s leading intellectual for the past 50 years for good reason, and Ed was no slouch. Their work invites deep thinking, in great contrast to the comic book version that the media presents, which on the subject of Cambodia was eerily similar to Orwell’s Two Minutes Hate (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#orwell). Comparing their work to what the hacks said their work was about is like exploring two different worlds.

It is like when I would read media articles about us (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page5?p=687&viewfull=1#post687), which were a series of lies and misdirections so great that if I didn’t know who they were writing about, I would have had no idea who they were writing about. Dennis is the greatest human being that I ever met, and the media invariably portrayed him as the criminal of the century. Noam and Ed were similarly attacked. That is how the saints fare in our insane world.

Best,

Wade

Hi:

After the Cataclysm has been posted to the Internet (http://goodtimesweb.org/overseas-war/2014/chomsky-herman-pehr-v2-ch-5-7.pdf) (and the link was recently erased from the Wikipedia article, hmmm, I’ll have to look into that when I write the article), and I am sure that Ed would not have minded, and I am sure that Noam doesn’t. I am almost finished with the reread, and then will be updating Ed’s bio (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm) and writing that Wikipedia article (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Political_Economy_of_Human_Rights). I want to briefly cover some aspects of that book that are ignored by its assailants.

Back in Ed’s earliest political writings (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#early), about Vietnam, he noted the canard of the USA’s trying to prevent a communist bloodbath. The USA slaughtered millions to “save” millions. Strange logic. It was an entirely false rationale, but all imperial rationales are false, and knowingly false by the people concocting them. Every crime has some flowery justification invoked by the perpetrators. If anything can be called human nature, that is it, as humans can justify anything, even eating their children (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page5?p=650&viewfull=1#post650).

So, no communist bloodbath happened in Vietnam, but one happened in Cambodia. Ed and Noam discussed an aspect of what happened in Cambodia that has always been ignored in imperial apologetics, which was not only how the bombing of Cambodia, especially at its climax in 1973, brought the marginal Khmer Rouge into power, but it also created the brutal conditions among Cambodia’s peasantry to incite what became a genocidal bloodbath, mainly of Cambodia’s city dwellers, who were primarily the colonial elite. Noam and Ed discussed an idea raised by others, that Nixon and Kissinger intentionally inflicted a firestorm of bombing to create exactly what happened. A communist bloodbath was not going to happen in Vietnam, as Nixon constantly invoked, but if they bombed Cambodia to dust, then maybe they could make their prophesized bloodbath happen in Cambodia, and it worked, so the imperial class could retroactively justify their immense crimes. It also had the virtue of preventing a good example of socialism that might have inspired the peasants of other American client regimes, such as in Thailand, to overthrow their brutal rulers.

Of course, the actual murders by the Khmer Rouge were far less than the propagandists stated (far more were the responsibility of the USA’s epic bombing), although they were plenty. However, as a proportion of the population, the simultaneous one in East Timor (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#suharto), inflicted by Indonesia, with American weapons and diplomatic support, was greater, the greatest since World War II, was completely blacked out in the USA, while what happened in Cambodia was covered by the American media with a constant drumbeat of genocide, and that was the entire point of Noam and Ed’s book (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#second): how the media enables imperial behavior. Their writings in The Political Economy of Human Rights matured into Manufacturing Consent (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#manufacturing) a decade later, which was their most famous work, both jointly and individually, and Ed was the primary author. Ed developed the Propaganda Model and wrote the chapters before the Indochina wars, and Noam wrote the Indochina chapters.

Ed and Noam also wrote at length, particularly in Manufacturing Consent, that after the murderous Khmer Rouge were overthrown by a Vietnamese invasion, the USA supported Pol Pot for the next dozen years (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#cambodia1) because he was an enemy of Vietnam, as he terrorized Cambodia. It would be as if Hitler’s genocide of the Jews (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#toward) was retroactively used to justify the American invasion of Europe, but Hitler fled to South America and was supported in style by the USA ever since, because he still had political-economic utility for killing Jews. It was Orwell to the extreme and continues to this day, with the absolutely insane attacks on Noam and Ed for their Cambodian writings (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#cambodia), among other hack activities.

Hi:

A pal recently hung out with Greer (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/97-Steven-Greer-s-Latest-UFO-ET-Disclosure-Effort?p=938&viewfull=1#post938), and heard a little news….

The GCs (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc) have decided to allow free energy technology to be developed for small applications, such as to power a house or car, but they won’t allow antigravity (or electrogravity). I have always argued that if they let any of it out, it will set up the conditions for all of it to come out. If any free energy technology makes it to the public, the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5) will begin and the days of the elites are numbered (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#elitedisappear), and they must know that.

I have stated repeatedly that my friend’s underground technology show (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#underground) happened several years before I saw Greer’s Disclosure Project (http://ahealedplanet.net/journey.htm#greer) witnesses discussing those technologies, and that their testimonies gave Greer’s effort credibility with me. When my friend was shown anti/electro-gravity, it was a person who began floating. Greer has described that “floating” technology as something like a fanny pack worn around the waist, which allows the wearer to float. So, once again, he confirmed what my friend saw.

Those are my “fun facts” for today. :)

These revelations don’t really impact my efforts. I would keep doing what I am even if free energy was announced tomorrow. The comprehensive perspective (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/63-Developing-a-Comprehensive-Perspective?p=82&viewfull=1#post82) that my work attempts to help my readers attain will be more relevant than ever, if free energy is announced.

Hi:

The end of After the Cataclysm presents Noam and Ed’s position quite clearly. They write:

“…how should one evaluate the programs and character of the countries that have been liberated from Western domination, or respond to developments there? Our primary concern has been U.S. global policy and propaganda, and the filtering and distorting effect of Western ideology, not the problems of reconstruction and modernization in societies that have been victimized by Western imperialism. Correspondingly, we have not developed or expressed our views here on the nature of the Indochinese regimes. To assess the contemporary situation in Indochina and the programs of the current ruling groups is a worthwhile endeavor, but it has not been our current objective.

“As for appropriate response, its central component in the current situation should be a committed and very substantial effort to help the victims, insofar as this is possible: those who are oppressed, those who have fled, those who are seeking to reconstruct some kind of viable existence from the wreckage. Such response is not to be discerned among the dominant classes and states of either East or West.

“There is no single cause for the misery and oppression that we find in every part of the world. But there are some major causes, and some of these are close at hand and subject to our influence and, ultimately, our control. These factors and the social matrix in which they are embedded will engage the concern and efforts of people who are honestly committed to alleviate human suffering and to contribute to freedom and justice.

“The success of the Free Press in reconstructing imperial ideology since the U.S. withdrawal has been spectacular. The shift of the United States from causal agent to bystander – and even to leader of the struggle for human rights – in the face of its empire of client fascism and long, vicious assault on the peasant societies of Indochina, is a remarkable achievement. The system of brainwashing under freedom, with mass media voluntary self-censorship in accord with the larger interests of the state, has worked brilliantly. The new propaganda line has been established by endless repetition of the Big Distortions and negligible grant of access to non-establishment points of view; all rendered more effective by the illusion of equal access and the free flow of ideas. U.S. dissenters can produce their Samizdats freely, and stay out of jail, but they do not reach the general public or the Free Press except on an episodic basis. This reflects the power and interests that benefit from the uncontrolled arms race, the status quo of domestic economic arrangements, and the external system of multinational expansion and collaboration with the Shahs, Suhartos, Marcos’s, in the contemporary “development” and sacking of the Third World. Change will come only when material facts arouse sufficient numbers to force a reassessment of policy. At the present time, the machine expands, the mass media adapt to the political economy, and human rights are set aside except in rhetorical flourishes useful for ideological construction.”

What an honor to carry their spears. 31 years after publishing After the Cataclysm, nothing had changed. For Ed and David Peterson’s The Politics of Genocide, I am going to put a label on one of their tables, on page 35, which I will call the “Herman-Peterson Genocide Reporting Ratio,” or HPGRR. The ratio is derived by the number of deaths in events such as Albanians dying in Kosovo, Hutu refugees in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) being slaughtered by (U.S.-supported) invaders from Rwanda and Uganda, Iraqis dying in the USA’s two assaults (the sanctions, followed by the invasion), divided by American media mention of the word “genocide” in relation to those deaths. It is more spectacular evidence of the disparity in media coverage, depending on the political-economic utility of the deaths. So, the Iraq sanctions regime caused 10,000 deaths for each instance of the American press’s calling it genocide. For the violent deaths since the USA invaded Iraq, the ratio was 77,000 deaths for each description of it as “genocide.” Those were Constructive Genocides (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#crv) that killed about two million people, by conservative estimate.

The deaths of Kosovo Albanians, about 4,000 in all, were called “genocide” once for each 12 deaths, and although the Serbs were responsible for maybe half of them, they were the bad guys in this Nefarious Genocide, which was not really a genocide at all. The media’s use of “genocide” for the Albanian deaths was 323 times versus 93 times for the Iraqi deaths (inflicted by the USA). The media’s reporting disparity was 77,000 divided by 12, or the USA’s media gave the Albanian deaths more than 6,000 times the “genocidal” attention over the Iraqi deaths. This dwarfs Ed and Noam’s findings in Manufacturing Consent (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#manufacturing), on worthy and unworthy victims (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#worthy), which “only” had a disparity of less than 200.

The most spectacular was the HPGRR for Paul Kagame’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#kagame) force’s slaughters in the DRC, after Kagame finished conquering Rwanda (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#rwanda). More than 5 million deaths were called “genocide” a grand total of 17 times in the media, for a HPGRR of 317,000, for that benign genocide. So, the media considered an Albanian death in Kosovo to be worth the appellation “genocide” more than 25,000 times that of a Hutu refugee death in the DRC. How can you even describe that, other than that is what Fox News calls “fair and balanced”? Could Orwell have even fathomed what we are seeing today?

And all that Ed got for pointing out that disparity were irrational tirades from people such as Kagame’s leading apologist (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#rwanda1), Gerald Caplan.

And Ed and Noam are Khmer Rouge apologists (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#cambodia), of course. It can be mind-boggling to read the crystal clear work of Noam and Ed, and their great hearts were always in evidence, to then see the insane and libelous attacks on them from the imperial hacks, which Ed and Noam’s propaganda model predicted (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#predictions).

Hi guys:

Just want to drop for a bit.

Just went through a death of a loved one so I am quite sad, but also knowing that he is in a way better place than the current one we reside in right now. It's one of my nephews who died young (16 yrs old) due to one of rare cases of possible stage 4 lymphoma which already spread throughout his body and it's too late. The doctors of the best hospital in town conferred with the best hospitals of the country to discuss his case when he was operated on his heart a week ago, just a few hours before he died. Just got back from the burial.

It's the first time I saw my loved ones cry... at least some of them. The first time I saw my 77 year old father cried. We all loved that kid. I cried myself when I heard the news back on June 6 but no longer after that. I am supposed to go back to the hospital to visit my nephew after the operation but was advised by my mom to go home first since he was still not out of the operating room. Well, I just slept around 1 pm since I work on a night shift and at 4 pm was awakened by a call from my sister that my nephew did not make it. My nephew was in hospital for more than a week before that. Was diagnosed with tonsillitis at first and then his fever did not went away... then went to another doctor and that doctor said that he got appendicitis... then finally went to my brother-in-law's physician and the X-rays found water drowning my nephew's lungs and it has to be drained out of his body. That's when the hospitalization started. Diagnosis was tuberculosis. A rare case of it. Then it went downhill from there when water was found on his heart and the waters did not fully drained from the lungs. After numerous tests; ultrasound and X-rays... it was found that he has a large tumor that already stretched his heart... and then my nephew went through cardiac arrest after operation when the nurses mentioned that he suddenly got up on his bed after operation and then fainted. And that's it. He was 16 yrs old. A very kind kid. A potential to be somebody in the IT industry after college.

Thanks for the condolences in advance.

Just got home after the burial and we are damn tired. Everybody except me, probably, is asleep at home now at 8:30 pm. Not sure of others in neighboring houses. We are living in a single compound here. We all ate at a good restaurant before going home as well so that kinda contributed. But I am so used to little sleep now that here I am, still standing. :)

A lot happened since my last post here, I kid you not. And I did went silent.

I guess we just have our own pace of evolving into this thing called "Wade's World". I did have my own that I just silently lurked here for a year before joining the forum in 2015. (Is it already that long ago...? Wow) And got some real-life commitments and distractions while I simply read here once a while and liking great posts by anybody posting.

Not sure if I can make another set of big posts like I did in the past, telling of my experiences and all of what I've learned getting here.

Not sure what to make of your "revelation", Wade. Is it that something that may lead to a great blunder that will lead to further exploration on free energy technology that may lead to an entire revolutionary transition to the Fifth Epoch? Who knows but I may like that road to world emancipation.... though that may look like an easy way out of this mess.

Hopeful though that if that thing happens; there will be enough people that will show that include the needles in haystack that you are looking for, Wade. These people will lead the way, man.

That's all for now... :) See you around.

Thanks,
Serg

Hi Serg (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1229058&viewfull=1#post1229058):

Sorry to hear of your loss. Yes, your nephew is doing fine (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#afterlife), and he had his reasons for leaving this world. In this world (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?32399-A-Future-Earth&p=672748&viewfull=1#post672748), everybody lives to a hundred and more, and it is one of the stars that I steer by. No more dying young, no more living in scarcity, misery, and fear, etc.

I hear you that free energy and the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5) may seem to be the easy way out, but the masses have never helped a new Epoch come into being. It was always a relative handful, and even a literal handful sometimes. Only the rise of industrialization ended chattel slavery (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#southseas) as a hallowed institution. And what did that first industrialized nation (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#coaluse) do? It used its advantage to enslave the world in a new way, and virtually everybody in England played along. The imperial ideology of England is alive and well today, as the USA plays imperial overlord, with the ideological summersaults that people such as Ed and Noam wrote about so astutely (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/105-My-Edward-Herman-biography-project/page3?p=1356&viewfull=1#post1356).

IMO, the point of being a sentient species (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#soul) is to raise our awareness, and each one of us reaps what we sow, and I will wax mystically for a moment. In The Aquarian Gospel (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#aquarian), Jesus healed somebody, a blind man, as I recall, and his followers said that the man’s blindness reflected karma, as he paid his soul’s debts, and Jesus was removing the man’s karma. Jesus replied that nobody could pay another’s karma, but that healing the man made him more capable of meeting his karma.

One of the most common objections to free energy and the Fifth Epoch is that life is supposed to be hard and full of tears, so free energy and abundance (http://ahealedplanet.net/abund.htm#abundance) is wrecking “God’s plan” for humanity. That is just an addiction to scarcity talking, IMO. The same pointing to “God” to justify human misery was used by antebellum southerners to justify slavery (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#slavebreeding), clear until the Civil War. To me, all that it means is that people have always been creatures of their Epochs, unable and unwilling to see beyond them, as their immediate self-interest formed the horizon of their egocentric awareness. Just as Fourth Epoch people could afford to have a conscience as far as slavery was concerned, in the Fifth Epoch, people will easily see the evils of imperial ideology, in all of its guises, capitalism (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#exchange), nationalism (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#nations), race, and other aspects of our world will cease to have meaning, Fourth Epoch practices will be looked back on in horror, and people will marvel at how primitive this Epoch was, as its denizens reveled in how “advanced” they were.

People are addicted to their survival mechanisms (http://ahealedplanet.net/hooked.htm#misinformation) in a world of scarcity, and won’t wake up until scarcity ends (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#brink), and only free energy can do that. It was like that for all Epochal Events, and I don’t see any reason why it would be different this time, even though we have shows such as Star Trek (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#visions) to give us hints.

We don’t do free energy, and a very dark night awaits (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#spaceshipearth), one that our species may not survive (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#age3).

Hang in there,

Wade

Hi:

A pal recently hung out with Greer (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/97-Steven-Greer-s-Latest-UFO-ET-Disclosure-Effort?p=938&viewfull=1#post938), and heard a little news….

The GCs (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc) have decided to allow free energy technology to be developed for small applications, such as to power a house or car, but they won’t allow antigravity (or electrogravity). I have always argued that if they let any of it out, it will set up the conditions for all of it to come out. If any free energy technology makes it to the public, the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5) will begin and the days of the elites are numbered (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#elitedisappear), and they must know that.
I'm seeing alternative physics leak out in various, presently still quite fringe, forms (Miles Mathis, Robert Distinti, Geometric Algebra, ...) and fast breeder nuclear power plant development by Russia (https://www.extremetech.com/extreme/186023-russia-bets-its-energy-future-on-waste-free-fast-breeder-nuclear-reactors), France, India, China, Japan and others (http://www.world-nuclear.org/information-library/current-and-future-generation/fast-neutron-reactors.aspx) which recycle the spent fuel rods from conventional nuclear power plants, ... all of which suggests to me that mainstream physics will be overhauled in coming decades, and that the dominant energy source for our civilization will shift from petro and coal, to nuclear.

If the US manages not to Fukushima itself with all its stockpiles of spent fuel rods in coming years, we Americans will find that we have enough fuel for decades of abundant, low cost, but still centrally controlled and generated power. The "Petro-Dollar" and the Rockefeller dynasty that grew so wealthy, in good part from petroleum, over the last century, will (are already) taking serious hits. But I don't expect that the most powerful on this planet will lose their power; rather just once again shift the monetary and energy technologies at the core of implementing their power.

Perhaps the "free energy" power sources would be like the petro powered engines in our cars and lawn mowers now ... using "new physics", but still relying primarily on big companies to develop, manufacture and control (by such means as trade secrets and patents) the technology.

I figure that the days of the petro-elite (such as the Rockefellers and their Kissinger, Bush, Clinton, Saudi, ... minions) are numbered. But I doubt that the power of the ones that they answer to is threatened.

Hi Paul (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1229125&viewfull=1#post1229125):

Yes, the nuclear card is being played, including fusion (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lockheed_Martin_Compact_Fusion_Reactor), and yes, at a billion a pop or so, it will work under the capitalist framework just fine. But none of my fellow travelers conceded the field to those games. I put the Rockefellers at about the fourth level of the global food chain (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/108-The-Global-Controllers?p=1186&viewfull=1#post1186). When David Rockefeller called Dennis at home (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page13?p=888&viewfull=1#post888), that announced that he was not Mr. Big. Kissinger, American presidents, etc., are further down, especially after they took out JFK (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/104-The-JFK-Assassination?p=1076&viewfull=1#post1076).

Alternative physics models are legion, going back at least to Tesla, and all I’ll say is that what my pal had demonstrated defied (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#underground) the current “laws of physics” and then some. My sense is that the people who kidnapped him (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/108-The-Global-Controllers?p=1173&viewfull=1#post1173) hailed from the disenchanted arm of the GCs (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc), and they are shooting for something other than, “Free energy, brought to you by Lockheed and Wall Street.”

The stuff that I am aware of could be cheaply mass-produced (no moving parts, would last almost indefinitely, the size of a book, how much power do you want?), and for the GCs, that would be a Game Over situation (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#elitedisappear), and they know it. It is a very real threat to their hegemony, which is why free energy has been suppressed like it has (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#levels1). The GCs are not as in charge as they think, and there is dissention in the ranks. If any of it gets out, all of it will eventually come out. I doubt that the “dribble it out” plan will be very successful in the long run, which is why they have kept the lid tight on that Pandora’s box.

We’ll see how it plays out. Interesting times. :)

Best,

Wade

Hi:

Yesterday, I worked on Ed’s quote page (https://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Edward_S._Herman) and added some to Noam’s (https://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Noam_Chomsky). As my Ed bio project (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/105-My-Edward-Herman-biography-project?p=1089&viewfull=1#post1089) continues, his quote page will grow. No hacks have arrived yet. We’ll see how that goes. Next up is updating this chapter (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#second) of my Ed bio for my recent studies (and some other bio changes), then writing the article on those books (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Political_Economy_of_Human_Rights), then I will be taking on Ed’s horrific Wikipedia bio (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_S._Herman) and tweaking some other Ed-related articles (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/105-My-Edward-Herman-biography-project/page2?p=1142&viewfull=1#post1142). Then the hacks will likely arrive. This process could take all summer, but I hope not.

Then I will begin plunking along on my long overdue update of my big essay. I expect that process to take a year or so, of my “spare” time. It will be a significant update. Maybe I’ll get lucky and it will only take a few months. We’ll see. Then I am going to engage in some more visibility work, do some interviews, etc.

Best,

Wade

Hi:

My post this summer will include drafts of my writings on Ed and Noam. I am far from finished, but this is a draft of my revision of The Washington Connection (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#second), which I worked on this morning:

The Political Economy of Human Rights

Herman and Chomsky’s first uncensored collaboration was “Saigon’s Corruption Crisis: The Search for an Honest Quisling”, published in 1974. The article discussed the American government’s intractable problem in Vietnam: finding a puppet who was not corrupt, in order to change the image of the regimes in Vietnam and renew generous funding from Congress.

In 1977, previews of Chomsky and Herman’s next collaboration appeared in various publications. One was a preview of the first two chapters of The Washington Connection and Third World Fascism. Herman’s writings were published in Monthly Review over several decades. Another was on the American media’s treatment of Cambodia after the Khmer Rouge victory in 1975, when little confirmable information on Cambodia’s situation was available to the West.

In 1979, Chomsky and Herman published the two-volume The Political Economy of Human Rights; The Washington Connection and Third World Fascism was the first volume, and After the Cataclysm: Postwar Indochina and the Reconstruction of Imperial Ideology was the second. The combined works greatly expanded on CRV. The preface of The Washington Connection established the theme of those two works, which contrasted the facts of the United States’s international behavior with the popularly held beliefs about them in the United States.

The Washington Connection

The facts asserted by the authors were that the United States had “organized under its sponsorship and protection a neocolonial system of client states ruled mainly by terror and serving the interests of a small local and foreign business and military elite.”

The beliefs asserted by the authors, which they called an “ideological pretense,” were that the “United States is committed to furthering the cause of democracy and human rights throughout the world, although it may occasionally err in the pursuit of this objective.”

The authors noted that between 1960 and the publication of their work in 1979, more than 18 Latin American governments had been subjected to military takeovers, and the United States was essential to the overthrow process in all of those nations. The authors wrote that torture had been no more than a historical curiosity in recent centuries, but suddenly flourished in the “free world” while it had simultaneously declined in the Soviet domain after Stalin’s death.

The inner cover of The Washington Connection and Third World Fascism presented a diagram of nations that routinely tortured their citizenry during the 1970s. That diagram listed the 35 nations that practiced torture on an administrative basis, and 26 (74%) of them were client states of the United States. The diagram also presented the amount of military aid provided by the United States to those torturer regimes from 1946 to 1975, which amounted to many billions of dollars, as well as how many of those nations’ military and police personnel were trained by the United States from 1950 to 1975, a count which exceeded 200,000 people. The authors noted that 35,000 Latin American officers had been trained at the School of the Americas, which was known as the “school of coups.” The School of the Americas at Fort Benning, Georgia, became infamous for running a torture school, and long after The Washington Connection was published, the Pentagon declassified some of their training manuals, which advocated torture and described torture techniques.

In The Washington Connection, Chomsky and Herman argued that the term “terror,” as used by the American media, was a political construct applied only to violence committed by marginal groups, even American students who protested the Vietnam War, while state terror, which was immensely more destructive, was defined away as not being terror at all, but was described by euphemisms such as “police action,” “protective action,” and similar terms, even while the Cuban and Cambodian governments’ violence was deemed “terroristic.”

Chomsky and Herman surveyed the CIA’s methods of subversion, including:

Assassinating foreign heads of state;
“Direct conspiracies with terrorists, mercenaries or (usually) military factions within a country to disrupt or overthrow a government in disfavor”;
“Political bribery and funding foreign politicians”;
Propaganda, in a “wide variety of forms”;
Organizing and funding demonstrations;
Actual information collection, which was its primary official function in its charter, but it routinely provided that information to those torturer regimes and the CIA’s proxies for harrying and overthrowing governments.

A theme throughout The Washington Connection was that those activities had the singular purpose of providing a favorable investment climate for American interests, primarily transnational corporations. Torture, slaughter, even genocide, and terror was performed with the objective of cowing a populace into apathy and submission so that foreign interests could plunder the labor and natural resources of those subject nations.

A generation later, John Perkins described those activities from the inside, as a member of a “middle management” that described themselves as “economic hit men,” who openly acknowledged among themselves that their purpose was to plunder the labor and resources of subject nations. When people such as Perkins failed to get foreign leaders to sell out their nations to transnational corporations, then the “jackals” (covert operatives, usually CIA contract agents) were sent in, often to assassinate foreign heads of state. Perkins had clients that were populist leaders of Panama and Ecuador, Omar Torrijos and Jaime Roldós, and after the economic hit men unsuccessfully tried to get them to sell out their nations to the “corporatocracy,” both men soon died in aircraft “accidents” that Perkins strongly believed were “jackal” operations.

Chomsky and Herman wrote that the CIA-enabled Latin American dictatorships had similarities to Nazi Germany, not the least of which was the CIA’s use of Nazis, particularly those who fled to Latin America after World War II, often with American assistance and protection, but with some important exceptions. Anti-Semitism was rarely evident in the ideology of those Latin American dictatorships, although Argentina was an exception, with its long history of anti-Semitism. More importantly, unlike European fascism, the Latin American variant had no popular support. The regimes were “denationalized” and had no allegiance to their nations’ masses, but instead were beholden to their foreign sponsors, so they treated their domestic populations as their enemies. Accordingly, the authors termed those regimes “subfascist.” The authors noted that the phenomenon of American-supported subfascist regimes was far from confined to Latin America, but was the typical situation in American client states globally.

In The Washington Connection, Chomsky and Herman described how the American mass media operated, and included a brief discussion of the features of what became their Propaganda Model, which was further developed in their Manufacturing Consent. In an early example of the media’s double standards that became a regular feature of Chomsky and Herman’s media analytics was a section of The Washington Connection titled, “Cambodia: Why the Media Find It More Newsworthy Than Indonesia and East Timor.” Chomsky and Herman explicitly made their arguments about the Cambodian slaughter in the 1970s; they were framed in the American media’s treatment of it, as they stated:

“Even today, as regards East Timor, where our brutal Indonesian satellite (authors of the 1965-1966 butcheries) have very possibly killed as many people as did the Khmer Rouge, there is a virtually complete blackout of information in the Free Press. This is a bloodbath carried out by a friendly power and is thus of little interest to our readers. It is a ‘benign bloodbath’ in our terminology.”

In The Washington Connection, Chomsky and Herman provided more examples of their framework of constructive, benign, nefarious, and mythical terror and bloodbaths, several of which were not in CRV, and they considerably expanded on their discussions in CRV. The terror and bloodbaths discussed in The Washington Connection included:

Benign and Constructive: American client regimes in Vietnam and Cambodia;
Benign: East Pakistan, early 1970s; Burundi, 1972; Indians of Latin America, particularly the genocide of the Aché of Paraguay, where the effort was led by American missionaries, enabled by the State Department and other American government agencies; and a lengthy discussion of the Indonesian invasion and aftermath in East Timor, which was the greatest proportional genocide of an ethic group since World War II;
Constructive: Indonesia, 1965-1969; Thailand and the Philippines, post-World War II to the 1970s; Dominican Republic, from the 1965 American invasion to the 1970s, Latin America in general, from the American overthrow of the Guatemalan government in 1954, to the mid-to-late 1960s epidemic of overthrown governments, to the subfascist terror regimes in the 1970s;
Nefarious and Mythical: Vietnamese land reform in the 1950s and the Huế “massacre” in 1968.

Chomsky and Herman provided voluminous details, context, and dry humor regarding those events. For instance, in the early days of Marcos’s subfascist terror regime in the Philippines, they routinely tortured dissidents, such as Trinidad Herrera, who organized protests in a squatter community near Manila, but was released after a tremendous international outcry that finally spurred the State Department to intervene to obtain her release. The testimonies of Marcos’s torture victims became a public relations problem, so the Marcos regime graduated to a “more advanced subfascist process” in which dissidents then began simply disappearing, never living to describe their treatment. The authors described a similar process in Thailand, in which “disappeared” dissidents (such as protesting students) were disposed of by incineration, even while the victims were still alive. Chomsky and Herman repeatedly noted that after successful constructive terror, American investment would pour into subject nations, such as Indonesia and the Philippines, as those nations became investors’ paradises.

Chomsky and Herman, in a preview of Manufacturing Consent, described the American media’s enabling performance of those activities, such as the New York Times’s performance regarding the East Timorese genocide, particularly that of its Pulitzer-Prize-winning journalist, Henry Kamm, who uncritically promoted the Indonesian government’s propaganda as it slaughtered the East Timorese in its unprovoked invasion. As the genocide in East Timor reached its peak, the American media went completely silent, which Chomsky later said reached the level of actual complicity in genocide.

In an early example of the pairing analysis of the media that Herman and Chomsky made famous in Manufacturing Consent, they noted that the trial of Soviet dissident Anatoly Shcharansky received more American media coverage in 1978 than the collective coverage of several thousand murders inflicted by Latin American client regimes in the same year.

Chomsky and Herman regularly noted the media’s irrationality in its reporting, such as the logical fallacy known as false alternatives, in which people who opposed the American invasion of Vietnam on principle were called “supporters of Hanoi.” The authors described at length American president Jimmy Carter’s hypocrisy as a “human rights” advocate when it came to how American client regimes treated their domestic populations, such as in American-supported dictatorships in Nicaragua and Iran, as well as Carter’s presiding over the greatest proportional genocide since World War II, as his administration renewed weapons sales to Indonesia when it began running out of bullets. The authors wrote that the United States was far from alone in supporting the Indonesian genocide in East Timor, as several Western nations provided various forms of assistance, including France and notably the United Kingdom; British Aerospace sold $25 million of counterinsurgency attack aircraft to Indonesia in 1978, which would have only been used on East Timor at that time. Western oil companies lined up in the wake of the invasion to negotiate oil exploration rights in Timor Gap.

Chomsky and Herman wrote at length about the USA’s operations in Vietnam, including mass murder programs such as Operation Speedy Express and the Phoenix Program. Details of the American operations were provided by examples such as the Congressional testimony of K. Barton Osborn, who:

“served in a covert program of intelligence in Vietnam, not only testified to a wide variety of forms of torture used by U.S. and Saigon personnel, but also made the startling claim that ‘I never knew an individual to be detained as a VC [NLF] suspect who ever lived through an interrogation in a year and a half, and that included quite a number of individuals.’”

Vietnamese land reform in the 1950s was a dismantling of an economic order that exploited peasants, as had been happening throughout the Third World since World War II, but it was also an endemic issue in agrarian societies, going back to the first civilizations. The most credible estimates were that the communist leadership in North Vietnam executed as many as two thousand people during its land reform activities. However, in late 1969, Nixon announced that 50,000 people had been executed by North Vietnam’s communist leadership. Several months later, Nixon said that the number was “hundreds of thousands,” and a month later, when huge protests were held across the USA in response to Nixon’s announcement that the USA was bombing Cambodia, Nixon announced that “a half a million, by conservative estimates…were murdered or otherwise exterminated by the North Vietnamese.” Nixon’s lies were made to bolster his claims that the North Vietnamese would massacre millions of South Vietnamese if they ever ruled over South Vietnam, and preventing a communist bloodbath became his rallying cry. Vietnamese land reform became one of Chomsky and Herman’s mythical bloodbaths.

Nixon’s lies about Vietnamese land reform and warnings against communist bloodbaths were part of a longstanding ideological construct that the USA was preventing or containing communist “aggression.” In that framework, the USA was never the aggressor, but was responding to or preventing communist aggression. That stance became known as “containment,” and was the USA’s official rationale for the Cold War. Herman and Chomsky spent a good deal of their political writings demonstrating that the “containment” policy was pure propaganda. The USA never felt threatened by communist expansion from the Soviet Union or China. Peasant nations freeing themselves from centuries of European colonial domination would no longer be subjected to capitalist-imperialist exploitation, and that was the real threat that the USA addressed with its foreign policy.

In his Beyond Hypocrisy, Herman wrote about the fictions that the containment policy was founded on, and he analyzed National Security Council Report 68 (“NSC-68”), prepared just before the Korean War in 1950. NSC-68 was a planning document for American leadership, and its author, Paul Nitze, advised the Reagan administration more than 30 years later. NSC-68 frankly recognized Soviet weakness, as it recovered from tens of millions of deaths in World War II. NSC-68 made explicit plans to subtly attack the Soviet Union, first by stripping away its satellites, and then to subvert the Soviet Union itself. NSC-68, like the Reagan administration’s “Defense Guidance, 1984-1988” report, authored by the Pentagon, openly acknowledged Soviet weakness and how to aggressively exploit it.

NSC-68, declassified in 1975 by Henry Kissinger, acknowledged that in order to subvert the Soviet Union, the USA needed a large military and mobilized public. Herman wrote:

“Doublespeak embedded in a convenient matrix of anticommunist ideology was essential, as the U.S. establishment was obliged to pretend (or internalize the belief) that the huge global expansion of the U.S. political economy on which they had embarked was ‘defensive’ and responsive to some external threat; that we were ‘containing’ somebody else who was committing ‘aggression’ and threatening our ‘national security.’

“The words and phrases ‘defense,’ ‘containment,’ ‘aggression,’ and ‘national security’ are core items of the doublespeak lexicon, essential ingredients of the ink squirted out by imperial cuttlefish.”

Nitze was a leading foreign policy hawk, and the leading dove of the early postwar years, George Kennan, authored Policy Planning Study 23 (“PPS-23”) for the U.S. State Department in 1948, the year after the USA renamed its War Department to the Defense Department. PPS-23 was declassified in 1974. Kennan made infamous observations in PPS-23, including:

“Furthermore, we have about 50% of the world's wealth but only 6.3% of its population. This disparity is particularly great as between ourselves and the peoples of Asia. In this situation, we cannot fail to be the object of envy and resentment. Our real task in the coming period is to devise a pattern of relationships which will permit us to maintain this position of disparity without positive detriment to our national security. To do so, we will have to dispense with all sentimentality and day-dreaming; and our attention will have to be concentrated everywhere on our immediate national objectives. We need not deceive ourselves that we can afford today the luxury of altruism and world-benefaction.

“…We should stop putting ourselves in the position of being our brothers' keeper and refrain from offering moral and ideological advice. We should cease to talk about vague and - for the Far East - unreal objectives such as human rights, the raising of the living standards, and democratization. The day is not far off when we are going to have to deal in straight power concepts. The less we are then hampered by idealistic slogans, the better.”

Kennan was the author of the USA’s “containment policy,” but Kennan wrote in 1985:

“In no way did the Soviet Union appear, at that moment, as a military threat to this country. The Soviet Union was utterly exhausted by the exertions and sacrifices of the recent war.”

In the 1960s, Kennan lectured on the idea that when the USA created NATO:

“they had drawn a line arbitrarily across Europe against an attack no one was planning,” and Kennan admitted that there was really “nothing to contain.”

Herman and Chomsky regularly wrote about American policymakers in the early postwar years and what the real game was, which they openly admitted in their top-secret planning documents.

Hi:

Here is an early draft of my rewrite of my summary of Noam and Ed’s After the Cataclysm (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#second). It will receive plenty more work before I get it into the shape I want, but here is a peek.

After the Cataclysm

In Chomsky and Herman’s After the Cataclysm, their emphasis was on how the American media system focused on events in Indochina after the American withdrawal, and how it helped reconstruct the USA’s imperial ideology. The bludgeoning of Southeast Asia, which caused several million deaths, had to be framed as a noble cause gone awry, instead of an imperial undertaking. In that regard, the USA’s media engaged in the task of transforming the USA from perpetrator to a concerned observer with clean hands that could righteously moralize about the failings of its victims, as it falsely portrayed them as the victims of others, as if the USA had no responsibility for how events unfolded in postwar Indochina, even as it actively prevented aid from reaching its victims.

In After the Cataclysm, Chomsky and Herman made their stance explicit, writing in the book’s first paragraph:

“We will consider the facts about postwar Indochina insofar as they can be ascertained, but a major emphasis will be on the ways in which these facts have been interpreted, filtered, distorted or modified by the ideological institutions in the West.”

Chomsky and Herman wrote about how American pundits immediately began framing the American invasion of Indochina as a mistake, not a crime, and how the media endlessly repeated the myth that the USA’s intention was to protect the freedom of South Vietnam’s peasants. Chomsky and Herman quoted the New York Times’s leading “dovish” pundit on the Vietnam War, the Pulitzer-Prize-winning Anthony Lewis, who wrote:

“The early American decisions on Indochina can be regarded as blundering efforts to do good. But by 1969 it was clear to most of the world – and most Americans – that the intervention had been a disastrous mistake.”

That became the standard theme of American apologists. The USA was not attacking Vietnam, but defending it, in its “blundering efforts to do good.” Chomsky and Herman wrote that reframing crimes as “mistakes” and “errors” had rich precedence; they quoted Klaus Barbie, also known as the Butcher of Lyon, during his comfortable retirement in Bolivia, after rendering his services to the Third Reich:

“the mass killings of Jews constituted a grave error. Many of the SS officers believed that the Jews could have been put to better use building roads to facilitate the advance of our troops.”

Chomsky and Herman wrote that as Herman Goering was being interrogated at Nuremberg after the Nazis were defeated, he said that genocide of the Jews was not a crime, but a:

“vast political blunder; many would have made good nationalists and joined in the Liquidation of the communists. If only Hitler had not confused the issues….”

Chomsky and Herman surveyed the USA after its Revolutionary War, and France after World War II. In postwar France, around 30,000 to 50,000 French citizens were summarily executed, often by mobs, generally for the alleged crime of Nazi collaboration, and such murders happened while France was under the authority of Dwight Eisenhower, with Winston Churchill’s approval, as Eisenhower implemented Franklin Roosevelt’s directive. In the American Revolutionary War, the relative affluence of Americans muted the barbarities that typically plague postwar situations, but Chomsky and Herman noted that about 100,000 loyal British subjects were driven from the colonies by the revolutionaries, and that massacres were common between loyalists and rebels. About 20% of the colonial population, about a half million in all, were loyalists to the British crown. Chomsky and Herman used those postwar examples, both of which had minimal suffering compared to what the Vietnamese people endured, in order to calibrate what the postwar experience in Vietnam could have been like.

Contrary to Nixon’s warnings of a communist bloodbath in postwar Vietnam, one did not happen. In their chapter on postwar Vietnam, Chomsky and Herman wrote about how the American media portrayed the events in Vietnam in the harshest possible light. The testimonies of many credible Western witnesses, who noted many positive developments in Vietnam’s recovery from the American invasion, were disregarded in favor of the testimony of a French priest, André Gelinas, who served in Vietnam and made extremely fanciful and lurid claims, such as that the Vietnamese people wished that the USA would drop atomic weapons on them, to end the scourge of communism once and for all. Virtually none of Gelinas’s claims could be independently verified, and when they could be subjected to verification, the findings demonstrated that Gelinas was far from a credible witness. A great deal of credible Western testimony, such as from Quakers, Mennonites, relief workers, and UN officials, was entirely disregarded by the American media in favor of Gelinas’s fabrications, which were prominently published in the Washington Post, the New York Times, and the Wall Street Journal, among other media venues.

Chomsky and Herman made it clear that few nations on Earth really helped much with reconstructing Indochina after it was destroyed by the USA. When help was given, it was invariably done over the objections of the USA, as it tried to prevent Indochina from receiving any assistance as it recovered, in a historic example of vindictiveness. Most of Indochina’s draft animals were killed in the wars, farmers were pulling plows in the aftermath of the American invasion, and when India sent 100 water buffaloes to Vietnam to help replenish its decimated herds, India had to route its donation through the Indian Red Cross, to avoid American retribution, as the USA outlawed any nation’s aid from going to communist-ruled Vietnam or Cuba.

Chomsky and Herman summarized how the American ideological system operates, which became a prominent theme in their work:

“The beauty of the democratic system of thought control, as contrasted with their clumsy totalitarian counterparts, is that they operate by subtly establishing on a voluntary basis – aided by the forces of nationalism and media control by substantial interests – presuppositions that set the limits of debate, rather than by imposing beliefs with a bludgeon. Then let the debate rage; the more lively and vigorous it is, the better the propaganda system is served, since the presuppositions (U.S. benevolence, lack of rational imperial goals, defensive posture, etc.) are more firmly established. Those who do not accept the fundamental principles of state propaganda are simply excluded from the debate (or if noticed, dismissed as ‘emotional,’ ‘irresponsible,’ etc.).”

Thousands of Indochinese farmers and others were killed by exploding ordnance that did not initially explode when the USA dropped it on Indochina, as well as leftover American mines. Laotian Vice-Foreign Minister Khamphay Boupha met with the American official in charge of postwar Indochinese relations, Frederick Brown, and Khamphay concluded his summation of the meeting with:

“The US has dropped 3 million tons of bombs – one ton per head – forced 700,000 people to abandon their fields; thousands of people were killed and maimed, and the unexploded ordnance continues to take its toll. Surely the US does not show humanitarian concern by refusing to heal the wounds of war.”

Khamphay noted that Brown not only dismissed the idea of any forthcoming aid, but that the USA “forced Thailand to close the border.”

Chomsky and Herman wrote at length on the failings of Christian Science Monitor, as it parroted the propaganda about postwar Indochina as uncritically as the rest of the media, while it portrayed itself as a publication of high-minded thought on foreign affairs.

The largest chapter in After the Cataclysm was on postwar Cambodia. That chapter became the basis for a major international campaign to falsely portray Chomsky, and to a lesser extent, Herman, as apologists for the Khmer Rouge and defenders or deniers of the resultant genocide in Cambodia.

Chomsky and Herman repeated throughout After the Cataclysm that their concern was the media’s treatment of postwar Cambodia, for example:

“As in the other cases discussed, our primary concern here is not to establish the facts with regard to postwar Indochina, but rather to investigate their refraction through the prism of Western ideology, a very different task.”

Chomsky and Herman wrote that Time magazine, in preparation for an article on Cambodia (“Cambodia: An Experiment in Genocide”, July 31, 1978) had approached Chomsky to elicit his support for the Khmer Rouge regime. Chomsky replied to Time with a partial list of fabrications about the Cambodian situation that Time and other American publications were responsible for. Time’s article did not name any “political theorists” who defended “the Cambodian tragedy” and Khmer Rouge atrocities because, as Chomsky and Herman noted, Time could not find any.

Chomsky and Herman wrote about Cambodia:

“It is a common error, as we have pointed out several times, to interpret opposition to U.S. intervention and aggression as support for the programs of its victims, a useful device for state propagandists but one that often has no basis in fact.”

Chomsky and Herman wrote:

“Another common device is to thunder that the doves ‘had better explain’ why there has been a bloodbath, or ‘concede’ that their ‘support for the Communists’ – the standard term for opposition to U.S. subversion and aggression – was wrong; it is the critics who must, it is claimed, shoulder the responsibility for the consequences of U.S. intervention, not those who organized and supported it or concealed the facts concerning it for many years, and still do.

“It is, surely, not in doubt that it was U.S. intervention that inflamed a simmering civil struggle and brought the horrors of modern warfare to relatively peaceful Cambodia, at the same time arousing violent hatreds and a thirst for revenge in the demolished villages where the Khmer Rouge were recruited by the bombardment of the U.S. and its local clients. Matters have reached such a point that a social democratic journal can organize a symposium on the quite astounding question of whether opposition to the U.S. war on Indochina should be reassessed, given the consequences in Cambodia.”

Chomsky and Herman replied to that logic with:

“Evidently, the question can be raised only if one accepts two assumptions:

the U.S. intervention in Indochina would have prevented a Cambodian bloodbath or was designed for this purpose;
the United States has the right to use force and violence to prevent potential crimes – and thus, a fortiori, to resort to force to prevent actual crimes by invading Indonesia, much of Latin America, etc.

It is difficult to decide which of the two assumptions that are jointly required for the question even to be raised is the more absurd.”

In their chapter on postwar Cambodia, Herman and Chomsky repeated their theme from The Washington Connection, on the discrepancy regarding the media’s treatment of Cambodia and East Timor, such as:

“A few months after Khieu Samphan’s now famous ‘admission’ that his regime was responsible for the deaths of about one-sixth of the population of Cambodia, Indonesian Prime Minister Adam Malik admitted that 50-80,000 people, close to the same percentage of the population, had been killed in East Timor in the course of what the Indonesia propaganda ministry and the New York Times called the ‘civil war’ – that is, the U.S. backed Indonesian invasion and massacre – though one would not have discovered that fact from the U.S. media. While Khieu Samphan’s ‘admission’ was concocted by the media and scholarship on the basis of remarks that quite possibly were never made, Malik’s admission, by contrast, was clear and explicit. A comparison of media reaction to the actual admission by Malik and the concocted ‘admission’ by Samphan gives some insight into what lies behind the machinations of the Free Press.”

Chomsky and Herman wrote at length about the tragedy of Cambodia and what caused it. Contrary to the “gentle land” description of pre-war Cambodia found in the media, Cambodia had long been torn by strife, particularly by France’s brutal imperial reign.

Chomsky and Herman wrote on subjects completely neglected by the American media regarding Cambodia, such as the idea that Nixon and Kissinger’s escalation of bombing in 1973 not only created the conditions that brought the Khmer Rouge to power, but it was an intentional outcome; the authors considered Michael Vickery’s explanation to be persuasive:

“Vickery points out that the Kissinger-Nixon policy during the last two years of the war was a ‘major mystery,’ for which he suggests an explanation that appears to us quite plausible. Referring to the ‘Sonnenfeldt Doctrine,’ which holds that ‘pluralistic and libertarian Communist regimes will breed leftist ferment in the West,’ he suggests that ‘when it became clear [to U.S. leaders] that they could not win in Cambodia, they preferred to do everything possible to ensure that the post-war revolutionary government be extremely brutal, doctrinaire, and frightening to its neighbors, rather than a moderate socialism to which the Thai, for example, might look with envy.’ In short, though it was understood that the United States had lost the war in Cambodia (even though it was, quite clearly, still trying to win it in Vietnam), the destruction of rural Cambodia, by imposing the harshest possible conditions on the eventual victors, would serve two classic ends: retarding social and economic progress, and maximizing the brutality of the eventual victors. Then the aggressors would at least be able to reap a propaganda victory from the misery they had sown.”

Chomsky and Herman wrote that before the 1973 bombing (the same year that Kissinger won the Nobel Peace Prize), the Khmer Rouge were far more moderate in their ideology. The authors quoted leading Cambodian scholar David Chandler, an American, who wrote:

“What drove Cambodians to kill? Paying off old scores or imaginary ones played a part, but to a large extent, I think, American actions are to blame. From 1969 to 1973, after all, we dropped more than 500,000 tons of bombs on the Cambodian countryside. Nearly half of this tonnage fell in 1973…In those few months, we may have driven thousands of people out of their minds. We certainly accelerated the course of the revolution. According to several accounts, the leadership hardened its ideology and got rid of wavering factions during 1973 and 1974.”

Another neglected idea in the American media about Cambodia also applied to Vietnam, in that Indochina was comprised of peasant societies that had societal dynamics markedly different from industrial ones. Agrarian civilizations produced limited agricultural surpluses that could only support a small non-food-producing population, generally comprised of urban professionals and the elite, who coercively taxed the agrarian hinterlands to support the cities. Cambodia’s and Vietnam’s cities had long been the headquarters for France’s colonial undertaking, and the USA’s epic bombing of Indochina was partly inflicted to drive the peasantry off of their lands and into cities and “strategic hamlets,” to destroy the popular base of support for communism. Without the huge influx of food to the cities of those war-torn nations, delivered by the USA, the artificial economies of Saigon and Phnom Penh would not have survived, and the urban dwellers would have soon starved to death. The evacuations of Saigon and Phnom Pen to the countryside were largely a return of rural peasants who had been forced into the cities, in order to stave off starvation, especially when the USA avidly prevented any foreign aid from reaching those nations.

In addition, the longstanding conflict between rural and urban society in Indochina was greatly intensified by the American invasion, and Chomsky and Herman wrote that the brutal aftermath in Cambodia seemed to be largely due to peasant vengeance on urban dwellers that comprised the colonial elite under French and American rule. The authors wrote that those historical dynamics contributed to the atrocities and brutal rule of the peasant-based Khmer Rouge. Chomsky and Herman also noted that the early reports of atrocities in postwar Cambodia came from parts of the nation where the Khmer Rouge’s influence was relative muted, as the traumatized peasants engaged in prodigious score-settling, particularly against the wealthy and city-dwellers.

Chomsky and Herman wrote that the primary account that Americans were familiar with regarding Phnom Penh’s evacuation was an article by John Barron and Anthony Paul in Reader’s Digest, which depicted horrific suffering inflicted on the evacuated city dwellers by the Khmer Rouge. Chomsky and Herman performed a detailed analysis of the Barron-Paul account of postwar Cambodia and concluded that it fell far short of a work of scholarly integrity.

Shane Tarr, a New Zealander journalist, and his Cambodian wife participated in Phnom Penh’s evacuation, and their account bore little resemblance to the Barron-Paul account, particularly regarding atrocities, which they never witnessed. Their account was never given any Western media treatment, other than being sarcastically dismissed, and their account was far from alone in being ignored by the Western media, as it did not conform to the media’s preferred version.

Near the end of After the Cataclysm, Chomsky and Herman wrote:

“When the facts are in, it may well turn out that the more extreme condemnations were in fact correct. But even if that turns out to be the case, it will in no way alter the conclusions we have reached on the central question addressed here: how the available facts were selected, modified, or sometimes invented to create a certain image offered to the general population. The answer to this question seems clear, and it is unaffected by whatever may be discovered about Cambodia in the future.”

Chomsky and Herman could not have been clearer that their task was to focus on how the American media handled events such as the slaughters in Indonesia, East Timor, and Cambodia, not to support the regimes that might have slaughtered fewer people than their neighbors did, as if the lesser of two evils was somehow good.

In their final comments in After the Cataclysm, Chomsky and Herman wrote:

“Our primary concern has been U.S. global policy and propaganda, and the filtering and distorting effect of Western ideology, not the problems of reconstruction and modernization in societies that have been victimized by Western imperialism. Correspondingly, we have not developed or expressed our views here on the nature of the Indochinese regimes. To assess the contemporary situation in Indochina and the programs of the current ruling groups is a worthwhile endeavor, but it has not been our current objective. […] The success of the Free Press in reconstructing imperial ideology since the U.S. withdrawal has been spectacular. The shift of the United States from causal agent to bystander – and even to leader of the struggle for human rights – in the face of its empire of client fascism and long, vicious assault on the peasant societies of Indochina, is a remarkable achievement. The system of brainwashing under freedom, with mass media voluntary self-censorship in accord with the larger interests of the state, has worked brilliantly.”

In their subsequent Manufacturing Consent, Herman and Chomsky summarized the decade of the Cambodian catastrophe and the American media’s treatment of it:

“Phase I: From 1969 through 1975, U.S. bombing at a historically unprecedented level and a civil war sustained by the United States left the country in utter ruins. Though Congress legislated an end to the bombing in August 1973, U.S. participation in the ongoing slaughter continued until the Khmer Rouge victory in April 1975 […] The vast numbers of Cambodians killed, injured, and traumatized in that period were, in our conception […] ‘unworthy victims.’”

“Phase II: From April 1975 through 1978 Cambodia was subjected to the murderous rule of the Khmer Rouge, overthrown by the Vietnamese invasion of Cambodia in December 1978 […] the Pol Pot era is the ‘holocaust’ that was widely compared to the worst atrocities of Hitler and Stalin, virtually from the outset, with massive publicity and outrage at the suffering of these ‘worthy’ victims.”

“Phase III: Vietnam installed the Heng Samrin regime in power in Cambodia, but the Democratic Kampuchea (DK) coalition, based primarily on the Khmer Rouge, maintained international recognition apart from the Soviet Bloc. Reconstructed with the aid of China and the United States on the Thai-Cambodia border and in Thai bases, the Khmer Rouge guerillas, the only effective DK military force, continued to carry out activities in Cambodia of a sort called ‘terrorist’ when a friendly government is the target […] Phase III renewed the status of the people of Cambodia as worthy victims, suffering under Vietnamese rule.”

I think it would be important if what is claimed is true, that all US patents are owned by an insider group that is beholden to the royals of England.
Since you are Avalon's expert on patents, I thought you would be able to say if the claim is true or not.
Thanks for your attention.

Hi Onawah:

I don’t care about patents (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#patent). They are meaningless for the important issues, and only serve to support delusions about capitalism (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#dominant).

Hi:

I have been busy lately working on Ed’s bio for my site (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm). I’ll publish the revised bio about the same time that I publish my Wikipedia article on The Political Economy of Human Rights (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Political_Economy_of_Human_Rights) and my rewrite of Ed’s abysmal Wikipedia bio (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_S._Herman), which is what Ed asked me to work on, which began this entire project. The imperial hacks will be up in arms with my Ed bio, and we will see how those battles go. But even though they might do their best to erase my work, which is not new to me at Wikipedia (http://ahealedplanet.net/wikimass.htm), they are going to have a very hard time erasing the Wikiquote page that I put up for Ed (https://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Edward_S._Herman). I have been beefing it up in recent days, and am probably about done for now. I can see that page growing over time. I expect that this phase of my Ed bio project (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/105-My-Edward-Herman-biography-project?p=1089&viewfull=1#post1089) will last well into the summer, and then it will be off to my long overdue big essay update.

Hi:

I have been devoting my writing time to my Ed bio project (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/105-My-Edward-Herman-biography-project?p=1089&viewfull=1#post1089). I can see the light at the end of the tunnel for this phase, finishing it in the next week or two, and then I plan to take the summer off from heavy lifting. I need a break from the last two relentless years. Come autumn, I plan to then get on with my big essay update, which will likely take a year or so of my “spare” time, and then onto more visibility activities relating to my work.

What a heavy lift the Ed project has been, but it has been a labor of love and an honor. Just this weekend, I decided to beef up Ed’s latest on demonstration elections (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#demonstration), and his contrast (https://mronline.org/2010/10/05/iran-and-honduras-in-the-propaganda-system-part-1-neda-agha-soltan-versus-isis-obed-murillo/) between the treatment of Iran and Honduras in 2009 (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#honduras). In a preview of what I may face at Wikipedia, the Iranian protestor who was shot has a big Wikipedia article on her (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Death_of_Neda_Agha-Soltan), and Oxford has a scholarship in her name (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neda_Agha-Soltan_Graduate_Scholarship), while the Honduran protestor who was shot two weeks later not only has no article on him, but the account of his death at Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_rights_in_Honduras#Extrajudicial_executions) looks a bit like disinformation, such as an unfounded allegation that the protestors, not the military, shot him, and that the soldiers were somehow justified if they shot him, anyway. It is Ed and Noam’s Propaganda Model (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#manufacturing) in action once again. Here is somebody (http://upsidedownworld.org/news-briefs/news-briefs-news-briefs/honduras-iran-and-the-propaganda-model/) who learned Ed’s lessons.

I found another tribute (https://monthlyreview.org/2018/01/01/the-propaganda-model-revisited/) from one of his co-authors, and we’ll see if I can work it in. Those who knew Ed all felt blessed, even those whom he chastised (https://countercurrents.org/2018/02/21/lessons-ed-hermans-lifelong-war-lies/), as they felt that he helped them make their work better.

Hi:

A few odds and ends as I work hard on Ed’s bio project (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/105-My-Edward-Herman-biography-project?p=1089&viewfull=1#post1089). The booklet that saved my father’s life (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#lessons) was banned in the USA (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#banned), and a generation later, that book’s banned advice is now the mainstream advice (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#mayo). Of course, that disgraced pioneer will not receive any mainstream recognition (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#steal).

A generation ago, a close friend asked me about a wintertime raw patch of skin on her arm, I said it was nothing, but she went to a dermatologist anyway, was diagnosed with melanoma, and had surgery to remove it, with a big scar on her arm to this day.

I have written on my site for a generation that mammograms may cause more cancer than they detect (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#mammogram), that there may be a condition that mainstream medicine calls malignant that is really benign (http://ahealedplanet.net/mdaq.htm#benign), that the “winning the war on cancer” idea is largely a fraud, and that diagnosing benign conditions as malignant (http://ahealedplanet.net/mdaq.htm#benign) is one of the many sleights of hand that provide those winnings statistics.

Well, surprise of surprises, that friend just had her annual cancer checkup, which she has had every year for more than 20 years, since her “melanoma” was removed, and her mainstream dermatologist, who is a prominent member of the medical community, told her during her medical examination that she likely did not have melanoma a generation ago, that “new” findings show that many benign conditions have been misdiagnosed as melanoma and breast cancer in the past, and that mammograms may cause more cancer than they detect. Imagine that! :)

I wonder if I will live to see the entire cancer treatment paradigm of attacking the tumor (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#racket) finally called insane by mainstream medicine and abandoned. It is a huge racket (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/109-The-Medical-Racket), so we will see. Will I live to see fluoride’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/fluoride.htm) use as a dental “preventive” finally admitted to be a huge and deadly fraud? I have not had to update my medical racket or fluoride essays in the generation since I wrote them, as far as the thrust of those essays goes, but I add material when mainstream medicine finally admits what the disgraced pioneers had long stated, as billions of people have been victimized by the state of affairs in medicine.

There is a method to the madness of my site, and that is to help people think comprehensively (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#developing), whether it is the media’s lies (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#big) that Ed and friends expose, writing on the medical racket, the Permian Extinction (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#permianextinction), or today’s arrested state of the free energy field (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#arrested). Once people can begin thinking comprehensively and sharpen their tools of discernment, they can become useful for my little project (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir). Otherwise, they get trapped by their delusions and tunnel vision, and hack at branches if they hack at all. It takes a lot of hard work to develop the needed awareness, even for those few with the right stuff (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/52-Helpful-Prerequisites-for-Forum-Participation?p=69&viewfull=1#post69). I can’t tell you how many people approach me, dragging along their baggage of delusions, with their “bright ideas (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#approaches)” that are completely useless for what I am doing, and it does not matter how much I have tried to dissuade them, they just had to go out and try it. I often get to hear later what a disaster it was, and I really don’t want to hear it. I have been regularly approached by academics over the years, and even the most worldly of them are usually quite naïve. Some are hip, but they are vanishingly few.

One issue that I have often written about is the “laws of physics” and free energy. Brian (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm) was fond of saying that there are no “laws of physics,” but just theories. When scientists invoke the “laws of physics” to dismiss free energy’s possibility (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level3), they are playing priests, not scientists. Thinking like a true scientist is good work and necessary for what I am doing, but it is not the only way to think. The greatest scientists had a mystical bent (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#mystical), and for good reason. Once somebody becomes scientifically literate, theories are just seen as theories, ready to die at the hands of the next fact. Some theories are stronger than others, but even Einstein expected his theories to one day die at the hands of new facts, but that the best parts of his theories would live on in the new theories.

I was reading in the latest Scientific American how scientists are embroiled in the issue of the connection between the quantum and classical views of physics (https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/how-does-the-quantum-world-cross-over/), and there are several competing hypotheses, which is normal science at work. If and when the technologies that my friend was shown (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/108-The-Global-Controllers?p=1173&viewfull=1#post1173) finally come into the open, today’s physics texts, as well as the entire paradigm that today’s science operates under, will be scrapped. Science and technology in the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5) won’t resemble today’s much, but almost none of today’s world (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#cognitive) will survive into the Fifth Epoch. That is what Epochal change means.

I just started reading Factfulness: Ten Reasons We're Wrong About the World – and Why Things Are Better Than You Think
by Hans Rosling, Ola Rosling, Anna Rosling Rönnlund (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/34890015-factfulness)

This is mostly a rehash of all the talks that Hans Rosling gave over the years. He gives a little too much importance to money (and indirectly exchange games), as opposed to Education and ultimately Energy. Other than that a reasonable read for most people.

I can't read Ed Herman or Noam Chomsky anymore, reading Wade's big essay is enough.

Robert Saplosky has interesting lectures on Human Behavioral Biology (https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL150326949691B199) And have his book Behave: The Biology of Humans at Our Best and Worst (Penguin Press, May 2017) on my reading list.

As far as GC's releasing FE for homes. I am waiting for it, my door is open. Not holding my breath though.

Hi Krishna (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1233024&viewfull=1#post1233024):

I’ll say this about Sapolsky (https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL150326949691B199): he has one hell of a beard! :)

Yes, the Exchange Game (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#exchange) is easy, seductive, and worthless for really solving our problems. The Exchange Game is always about the advocate getting more goodies out of the game. A very egocentric approach…

I am attaching a picture of my desk, while I am on the home stretch of this phase of my Uncle Ed project (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/105-My-Edward-Herman-biography-project?p=1089&viewfull=1#post1089). After this stretch, which should be finished in a couple of weeks, the heavy lifting will be finished. On my desk is one big pile of genocide that our propaganda systems portray as heroic deeds. I understand about going through your Noam (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#chomsky) and Ed phase. Somebody has to do it, and nobody did it better, but yes, that stuff takes its toll, and eventually you learn enough to use your own tools of discrimination. Once you are awake, then there is no need to do that anymore. I have written repeatedly that studying the darkness is not fun or what my work is about, but more about how the system and masses call the darkness the light. That is the mind-boggling part. We are giving Hitler a run for his money, and even outdo him at times (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#newsweek), but we are the force of light, by golly.

My big essay (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm) is about something very different from what Noam and Ed taught, and I think that if Uncle Bucky (http://ahealedplanet.net/roots.htm#fuller) was alive today, he would be doing something like what I am.

I have been sketching out what my next few years of Wade’s World activity might look like, and it is possible that I will make a book out of my big essay, a highly abridged version so the tree killers will have something to hold. I have been badgered for 20 years to write a book, and maybe I will, but I have not seriously thought about it since 2001. We’ll see how it goes. I won’t spend too much effort on it.

On the GCs allowing some kind of FE to come out, yes, I won’t hold my breath, either, but I am not about to wait for somebody to do it for me. There is work to do! :)

Best,

Wade

Hi Krishna, AKA Mr. Voracious Reader:

Yes indeed, the USA was Hitler’s inspiration (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#hitler) in a number of ways. And it was no surprise to find that the Nazi race laws (and Europe’s) were influenced by the American version (http://crossculturalsolidarity.com/the-american-influence-on-nazi-race-law/). It was new to me to hear that the Nazis sometimes called Jews “Indians,” as they slaughtered them.

Yes, the fight against the Nazis (http://crossculturalsolidarity.com/the-global-context-of-the-civil-rights-movement/) did cause American introspection (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#racism1), and influenced the Civil Rights Movement. In a way, Hitler did us a favor, holding up a mirror to us.

The USA is history’s most racist nation (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#racism1). I was raised in a racist household, and heard the word “nigger” and other racial epithets daily. It took my leaving home to understand what kind of environment I had been raised in, and I then put that racist upbringing behind me. I would go a year without hearing the word “nigger,” until ten minutes after I arrived at my childhood home for a visit.

JFK was the first postwar president who did not call blacks “niggers,” and his “progressive” views helped lead to his murder (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/104-The-JFK-Assassination?p=1076&viewfull=1#post1076).

In the Fifth Epoch, not only will racism race end, but race will (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#nations), too, along with nations, cities as we know them (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#cities), and other primitive constructs born of scarcity.

Hi Krishna, AKA Mr. Voracious Reader:

Thanks Wade. Trying to catch up with your reading. I don't remember as well though, I just learn general outlines.

Two interesting papers behind paywall, my summary is that we should push out the "firsts" back in time for pretty much everything. In this case there were really old (2 millions years ago) hominin in China. Giant dinosaurs existed 30 Million Years before they were suspected to get that size.

Hominin occupation of the Chinese Loess Plateau since about 2.1 million years ago (https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-018-0299-4) by Zhaoyu Zhu, Robin Dennell, Weiwen Huang, Yi Wu, Shifan Qiu, Shixia Yang, Zhiguo Rao, Yamei Hou, Jiubing Xie, Jiangwei Han & Tingping Ouyang

An early trend towards gigantism in Triassic sauropodomorph dinosaurs (https://www.nature.com/articles/s41559-018-0599-y) by Cecilia Apaldetti, Ricardo N. Martínez, Ignacio A. Cerda, Diego Pol & Oscar Alcober

===========Added Later========

The Global Context of the Civil Rights Movement (http://crossculturalsolidarity.com/the-global-context-of-the-civil-rights-movement/) mentioned above is very interesting. Decolonization desegregated public establishments in Washington "Eisenhower believed in white superiority, and supported segregation. But he also knew that a segregated capital humiliated foreign dignitaries and pushed potential allies towards the Soviet Union… and that was unacceptable. The desegregation of the nation’s capital began in 1953, and was complete by 1955"
It also had a role to play in Brown vs Board (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brown_v._Board_of_Education#Supreme_Court_review) decision which I now understand to be a political decision.

Decolonization changed the politics of civil rights in USA, which lead to changes in Immigration Law, which paved a path for me into the USA. We should not miss the influences that come from a global level on all of us.

Hi:

My biography project for Uncle Ed (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/105-My-Edward-Herman-biography-project?p=1089&viewfull=1#post1089) just reached a milestone with my publication of:

My revised biography on Ed on my site (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm). I considerably beefed it up from last year’s version, particularly my chapter on Noam and Ed’s The Political Economy of Human Rights (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#second). I have also hosted documents on my site which Wikipedia would likely erase the links to, such as Michael Hourigan’s affidavit (http://ahealedplanet.net/hourigan.pdf) about how his investigation into the assassination of Rwanda’s president was killed, and the text of Noam and Ed’s After the Cataclysm (http://ahealedplanet.net/cataclysm.pdf).
A Wikiquote page (https://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Edward_S._Herman) for Ed’s writings, which is sure to grow.
Ed’s biography at Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_S._Herman), and related articles:
Manufacturing Consent (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manufacturing_Consent);
The propaganda model (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propaganda_model);
The Political Economy of Human Rights (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Political_Economy_of_Human_Rights), which was only a stub before I changed it.
The article on their first work together (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Counter-Revolutionary_Violence:_Bloodbaths_in_Fact_%26_Propaganda), which was censored. I fixed that some months ago. It has kind of been censored twice, with Philip Cross, mentioned below, misrepresenting what happened.

Ed originally asked me to rework his execrable Wikipedia bio, and that is where most of my Wikipedia effort went, but the other articles needed work, too. The infamous anti-historian Philip Cross (1 (https://www.craigmurray.org.uk/archives/2018/05/the-philip-cross-affair/), 2 (https://gosint.wordpress.com/2018/05/22/wikipedia-the-spooks-the-remake-the-philip-cross-affair/), 3 (https://caitlinjohnstone.com/2018/05/20/wikipedia-is-an-establishment-psyop/), 4 (http://www.investmentwatchblog.com/who-is-philip-cross-neocon-fascist-propagandist-and-industrial-scale-manipulator-of-wikipedia/), 5 (http://www.investmentwatchblog.com/who-is-philip-cross-neocon-fascist-propagandist-and-industrial-scale-manipulator-of-wikipedia/)) has been the most prolific “editor” of Ed’s bio so far, and I am trying to get Cross banned from editing Ed’s articles (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Edward_S._Herman#Philip_Cross%E2%80%99s_edits).

How the disinformation effort has been working against Ed and Noam is that what they actually wrote has been excluded from Wikipedia so far, such as the concept that they used from the very beginning of their collaborations, of benign, constructive, nefarious, and mythical bloodbaths (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#bloodbaths) and how the media treats them. That was quite an achievement, to completely exclude that major theme from Wikipedia (I added it last year). Then, with their actual writings suppressed, the attacks on their work commenced. That is the “straw man (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Straw_man)” logical fallacy at best, and libelous at worse.

I have had plenty of experience with the racist, imperial “editors (http://ahealedplanet.net/wikimass.htm)” at Wikipedia before, but I can easily live with Brian O’s Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brian_O%27Leary) bio as it exists today. I wrote an initial entry on Ed’s talk page (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Edward_S._Herman#Doing_justice_to_Ed%E2%80%99s_life), announcing my intentions.

We will see how it goes.

Best,

Wade

Hi:

Well, that did not last long (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/105-My-Edward-Herman-biography-project/page3?p=1366&viewfull=1#post1366). I’ll write an essay on it one day, titled something like “My Adventures at Wikipedia, The Sequel.” More than ten years ago, a friend and I made additions to a wildly biased list (http://ahealedplanet.net/wikimass.htm) at Wikipedia, to only see them all get deleted within a few days, mostly by the “editors,” but the worst offenders might have been the admins. There was literally nothing to rationally dispute about our additions. They were simply numbers of natives slaughtered, where, when, and the scholarly source of the numbers. It was unassailable, especially when our effort was the first to introduce scholarly sources to the list. Then we just stood back and watched what happened. In the end, the logic at Wikipedia was that two white invaders being murdered by some angry Indians was a “massacre,” but slaughtering 40,000 (my number, but I have seen higher numbers estimated) residents of Tenochtitlan after the Cortes-led siege ended was somehow not a massacre. If it was 100,000, which it may have been, would it have been a massacre? The bias was blatantly racist. When reporting on Ed and David Peterson’s genocide reporting ratio (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#ratio), in which a death in a “nefarious bloodbath” was more than 25,000 times as likely to be reported as a “genocide” in the media as a death in a “benign bloodbath,” I wrote that it might be the greatest statistical disparity to be found in the social sciences, but Wikipedia’s reporting may be more extreme.

Yesterday, I made my additions to those articles that I linked to (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/105-My-Edward-Herman-biography-project/page3?p=1366&viewfull=1#post1366), and then stepped back to watch what happened. Predictably, one of Ed’s libelers called my additions “hagiography,” but according to the only honorable and reasonable person that I saw write yesterday, my version is the closest thing to a normal Wikipedia article that has yet been written about Ed. I was expecting that the editors would start at it, and that reasonable editor immediately did. That is how it is supposed to work at Wikipedia. I was expecting edits, but that the framework would at least survive, because what was on Ed’s bio was basically a bunch of attacks on his exposures of the media’s treatment of “nefarious bloodbaths,” and more often than not, the critics cited in Ed’s Wikipedia bio libeled him. I never saw even one of those critics cited on Ed’s bio make even one valid criticism. It was all lies, misrepresentations, errors in logic, and the like. It was just more evidence of what Noam wrote about, that Western intellectuals are so indoctrinated that they are incapable of understanding “trivial realities (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#trivial)” when they aren’t being patently dishonest. Noam once said that he did not mind scholarly disagreement, but that he did mind all of the lying.

So, the reception to my edits was disparagement but also serious editing. I would have taken that any day, but also I wondered when an editor would argue that all of my edits should be deleted. It turned out that nobody needed to, because an admin did it for them, and quite rudely. He made multiple threats about banning me from Wikipedia, and when he finished his diatribes, I was apparently guilty of three editorial crimes:

I was a fan of Ed’s who had communicated with him. We traded somewhere around a hundred emails over about 20 years. Apparently, that gave me a conflict of interest, making me disqualified to edit any article related to Ed.
I had made quotations in my edits, from other copyrighted material, which was a copyright violation.
I was guilty of plagiarism.

Those were my crimes, and all of my edits were unceremoniously deleted from Wikipedia. Not a simple reversion, mind you, but a KGB-like erasure of what I wrote, so that the public will never see it, at least on Wikipedia. I’ll deal with my “crimes” one at a time.

On being Ed’s fan, I am guilty as charged. So, communicating with an author disqualifies anybody at Wikipedia from making edits about said author. I am guessing, but that crime may have been committed at Wikipedia a million times by now, so I am in good company. But, since 99.9% of the editors at Wikipedia are anonymous cowards, there is no way to tell what their conflicts of interest might be. Such conflicts will only be identified for people who use their real identities, and I made it easy on everybody by announcing my “conflict” as I came in the door.

On the Heinz Haber article (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heinz_Haber), his son sat on that article like a hawk, erasing anything that suggested that his father was involved in medical experiments in World War II. Haber may not have been involved with medical experiments, but his greatest claims to fame were: as the protégé of a German doctor, Hubertus Strughold, who definitely was involved in human experiments; the Disney sidekick of Wernher von Braun, the most famous of the NASA Nazis, whose V-2 rockets cost the lives of at least 20,000 concentration camp inmates; and Haber made a children’s movie for Disney and wrote a children’s book that extolled the virtues of nuclear energy. However, Haber came over via Operation Paperclip, which was legendary for whitewashing the criminal backgrounds of the German scientists that it brought over. Haber’s mentor, Hubertus Strughold, destroyed all of his files that would have documented his participation in human experiments, but one slipped through the cracks and was discovered in 2004 (http://www.lucettelagnado.com/news/scientists-nazi-era-past-haunts-prestigious-space-prize).

Haber co-authored a paper titled, “Man Under Gravity-Free Conditions” in the now-legendary German Aviation Medicine, World War II, which was published by the Air Force, after it was sanitized by Strughold (working at the same facility that Haber did), who deleted passages in the work that suggested that experimental results derived from human subjects, experiments conducted by his colleagues such as Strughold’s good friend Siegfried Ruff (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siegfried_Ruff) (who gets softball treatment at Wikipedia) and Hermann Becker Freyseng (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hermann_Becker-Freyseng), who worked for Strughold.

Now, there is a conflict of interest, and the Haber article to this day is outright hagiography. You can see yesterday’s rude admin taking me to task over my contributions to the Haber talk page, while Haber’s son gets to edit the page about his father like a hawk. This is the “evenhandedness” of Wikipedia in action. Take that in for a moment.

Until yesterday, I had no idea that that “relationship” with Ed gave me an insoluble conflict of interest, which was apparently the primary reason for erasing all of my work. I’ll guarantee you that my so-called conflict of interest is nowhere near as great as “Philip Cross’s”, who is very likely not a person, but a pseudonym for a group of individuals, and it would not surprise me to discover that they work for MI6 or the CIA in some capacity, and George Galloway, one of Cross’s favorite editorial targets, is readying a lawsuit that will presumably expose Cross’s identity. So, my admitted “conflict of interest” disqualifies me, but Cross’s hiding behind a pseudonym, as “he” purveys disinformation, is just fine. I went into great detail (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Edward_S._Herman#Philip_Cross%E2%80%99s_edits) on one of “his” disinformation additions to Ed’s bio. Every time that somebody removed it, it was restored by other editors. So, this is far from a negligent oversight, but those editors are very actively misrepresenting Ed’s work. The bizarre part is that the passage that keeps getting added twists one of the greatest acts of censorship in the late 20th century (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#crv) into seeming to be a responsible and righteous act. Calling the treatment on Ed’s bio “Orwellian” is an understatement. Those kinds of misrepresentations and outright libel dominate Ed’s bio today, and that reasonable editor has proposed, after my erasure, to make Ed’s bio more like a normal Wikipedia article, but he is already being shot down (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Edward_S._Herman#Proposed_changes_to_the_article_structure). I was going to refer to my last post at Wikipedia, but that was hidden from casual readers, and I reproduce it here (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/105-My-Edward-Herman-biography-project/page3?p=1367&viewfull=1#post1367).

My second editorial crime was reproducing copyrighted material when I quoted somebody. Look through any Wikipedia article, and particularly any biographical one, and you will see plenty of quoting, and Wikipedia has a “blockquote” feature just for lengthy quotations. When I began to ready Ed’s bio for Wikipedia, I realized that there were far more quotations to make, to give Ed’s work justice, than I could put in the Wikipedia bio, and I suspected that what happened yesterday was well within the realm of possibility, so I built a bunch of quotes at Wikiquote (https://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Edward_S._Herman), so that Ed’s voice would be heard at least once in the Wiki-universe, amongst all the libel against him.

So, the logic seems to be that putting quotes at Wikiquote is fine, but putting them in a Wikipedia article is a copyright violation. I am no attorney, and I can’t make any sense out of that logic. I expected that some of my quotes in the Ed articles would be erased and turned into paraphrases, and I planned to add the erased quotes to Wikiquote, if they were not already there. I do plan to add quotes to Ed’s Wikiquote page, from yesterday’s erased effort, but not immediately. I already have added a pretty big slug of quotes (that page is all my work so far) that fills in the blanks on Ed’s writings, to show how off-base his assailants are, and that is enough for now. I was already planning to take an Ed break, after it consumed most of my “spare” time over the past year, and especially after yesterday’s adventure in censorship.

The last “crime” that I was accused of was plagiarism. Whom did I plagiarize? Myself! It seems that if I put anything on Wikipedia that was already on my site, that is plagiarism. Krishna informed me that it was not plagiarism (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Prop9), which I already knew. I have been writing long enough to know what plagiarism means. It is stealing somebody else’s work and presenting it as one’s own. I have been plagiarized and impersonated on the Internet, and the crazy part about being plagiarized is that you can be accused of the plagiarism. I don’t keep track of how often I have been plagiarized, but one event happened in 2001, when a professional Hollywood writer plagiarized my writings about Mickey Cohen (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#cohen), and I was the person accused of plagiarism (you can see that event at the Above Top Secret forum, before they banned me – yes, I am used to this kind of treatment, where the trolls get free play while assailing me, and I get banned (http://ahealedplanet.net/critics.htm#troll2)). The good news is that it was easy to prove when I published my work, and the plagiarist published his work a few months after mine. But it is kind of surreal to be plagiarized, to then be accused of being the plagiarist.

So, real plagiarism, where I copied somebody else’s work and called it mine, is actually nowhere in evidence in any of my work or what I posted at Wikipedia (you can see what I do when copyrighted material is added to my site, outside of the stray Fair Use quote, and that was quite an experience (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page6?p=738&viewfull=1#post738)), but the person that I plagiarized was myself, of all people. Should I be angry at being ripped-off that way? :) Krishna began reading my work around 2001-2002, and after years of Krishna’s working on me, I finally contacted Richard Stallman (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Stallman), the founder of the Free Software Movement and the spiritual grandfather of Wikipedia. Krishna’s idea, and I thought that it made sense, was that Free Software and Free Energy activists would be natural allies, and I wrote an open letter to that effect (http://ahealedplanet.net/freesoft.htm), around the time that I contacted Stallman in 2006. Alas, after a frustrating month of trading email with Stallman (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/73-Darren-Geffert-s-introductory-posts?p=130&viewfull=1#post130) (Does that disqualify me from ever editing his Wikipedia article? It would seem so.), I gave up. He is a classic Level 3 (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level3), where so many of the “smart” end up. That is no crime, but Stallman is not going to be any help.

I can’t remember exactly when I did it, but Krishna kept working on me, and I put my copyright release on my home page (http://ahealedplanet.net/home.htm) at least several years ago, meaning that anybody can use it in any way they wish, including me ( :) ), without fear of any copyright infringement. Basically, I am a “public-domain” writer, although I ask people to at least cite me, if they use my work. But I doubt that I would ever sue anybody who didn’t.

So, the “plagiarism” that I stand accused of is plagiarizing myself! Because I used words from my own writings (including Brian’s NASA bio (https://www.jsc.nasa.gov/Bios/htmlbios/oleary-bt.html), which I wrote), and even though my writings on my site are all public domain, I was guilty of plagiarizing myself, and all of the examples that the censorious admin presented were “plagiarisms” of my public-domain self. The admin informed me that any well-educated middle-schooler knew that, which was one of quite a few insults and threats. I guess that I am just not smart enough to understand or was trained badly, but I just can’t seem to wrap my head around the idea that if I use my own public-domain writings at Wikipedia, that I am guilty of plagiarism. Maybe a lawyer can explain it to me one day, but since I will never contribute to Wikipedia again, I don’t think it matters, and I will file yesterday’s series of events into my Twilight Zone file. It was a truly bizarre day. To add icing to the cake, that censorious editor also wiped out most of my work on Brian O’s bio (my crimes were knowing Brian and using my own writings), and now it is just a stub, with nary a mention of free energy. What a travesty.

I have been on the receiving end of “selective enforcement (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#mr)” activities that make what happened yesterday pale into insignificance, and I’ll get over it soon. I’ll one day publish the code that I wrote to put it into Wikipedia (probably 100 hours or so of effort), and anybody can use it however they wish. My best version of Ed’s bio sits on my site today (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm), and shows up as the third result on Bing and the second result at Google, if somebody enters “Edward S. Herman biography”, so my work is not completely banished to Siberia, but it is really a shame that Ed’s Wikipedia bio is an exercise in disinformation, but such is today’s world, and it is only more confirmation of Ed and Noam’s propaganda model. While it would have been nice to get through Wikipedia’s censorious gauntlet, it was not to be, and I am finished with trying, although I am being encouraged to keep fighting at Wikipedia. But it is a rigged game, in my opinion, and in the opinion of others who would know (https://caitlinjohnstone.com/2018/05/20/wikipedia-is-an-establishment-psyop/). While Uncle Ed is near the head of my pantheon, I have bigger fish to fry these days (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir). What an honor to have done this work, but it has set back my big essay update by more than a year, as well as other “visibility” work relating to my effort. It is time to move on. Maybe somebody will make a dent in rectifying Ed’s Wikipedia bio one day, which today stands as an exercise in disinformation, but it won’t be me.

Best,

Wade

Hi:

I just posted out the Word files that I used to compose my additions to my articles on Ed. They are here:

Ed’s Wikipedia bio (http://ahealedplanet.net/Herman%20wikipedia.docx)
Ed’s Wikiquotes (http://ahealedplanet.net/eq%20wikiquote.docx)
The Manufacturing Consent article (http://ahealedplanet.net/manufacturing%20consent%20wikipedia.docx)
The propaganda model article (http://ahealedplanet.net/propaganda%20model%20wikipedia.docx)
The political economy of human rights article (http://ahealedplanet.net/PEHR%20Wikipedia.docx)
The Counter-Revolutionary Violence article (http://ahealedplanet.net/CRV%20wikipedia.docx)
The book cover of After the Cataclysm (http://ahealedplanet.net/The_Political_Economy_of_Human_Rights,_volume_two.jpg)

I also put out my work on Brian’s bio (http://ahealedplanet.net/Brian%20Wikipedia%20bio%20technical%20text%20published%20v3%203-10-11%20orginal.doc), at least as of 3-10-11.

All Earthlings (Martians do not have my automatic permission, but they can nicely ask. :) ) have my permission to use those files however they wish. It also contains Wikipedia code that is not my work, but that code is already at Wikipedia, available to anybody, so I don’t think that anybody can come after me legally for giving away this work that took probably 100 hours or so of coding effort. This post ends my efforts at Wikipedia.

Best,

Wade

Hey Krishna (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1235712&viewfull=1#post1235712):

You get a gold star for your performance this weekend. I greatly appreciate your effort, old buddy, and I won’t minimize what happened this weekend, but what I lived through during my adventures with Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#hitting) made this weekend look like a picnic. Nobody is coming to arrest me. I am already kind of laughing about it. We’ll see if anybody picks up the ball, and it looks like Prop9 is going to give it the college try. It would be nice if some others came to the party, but I have my doubts. It is usually a handful against the forces of darkness. That is just what it is. I don’t want you to get banned from Wikipedia, so you can back off for now.

There is a lot that I am up against, and I don’t want to get too “conspiratorial” about what happened this weekend, but, as I wrote (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1235560&viewfull=1#post1235560), I don’t see where that oh-so-rude admin has a leg to stand on regarding erasing my work, KGB-style, but I am finished with trying to get justice in a rigged court. They can just make it up as they go.

As you probably noticed, not only is Philip Cross (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Edward_S._Herman#Philip_Cross%E2%80%99s_edits) a disinformation professional, and is likely really a group of people with intelligence connections, but “he” did not even need to roll out of bed, as the admin and the other “editors” have “his” back. The founder of Wikipedia, Jimmy Wales, has publicly defended Cross, so it looks like Wikipedia may have already been captured by the intelligence community, so I would not expect the admin to buck what the founder openly supports. As Ed might say, the values are internalized and are not even consciously acted on. That admin might even believe that he just saved Wikipedia from a lawsuit over copyright violations and plagiarism, from perhaps me and Ed’s and Brian’s estates. :)

As you can tell, that was a “kill the messenger” moment at Wikipedia, and only one or two need to be on the payroll, if that, and then the mob does the dirty work, gratis. I learned those lessons 30 years ago.

I am finished with this phase of my bio project for Ed, and am putting it behind me. I was planning to enjoy what is left of the summer up here in the spectacular Pacific Northwest, without any heavy lifting for my writing work, and I’ll be pretty busy at my day job. It is time to move on, and I was planning to reply to your other recent posts. Interesting material.

Love,

Wade

Hi:

I really don’t want to spend too much time on the issue, but a couple of people are trying to pick up the ball for Ed at Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Edward_S._Herman#Proposed_changes_to_the_article_structure), and they are going to have a very hard time of it. I was looking at the edits and discussions of those who oppose them, and they have actively libeled Ed and have made their hostile stances quite clear. Their agenda is obvious. It is a chorus of imperial hacks, and their ringleader is a professional libeler (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Edward_S._Herman#Philip_Cross%E2%80%99s_edits), whom the co-founder of Wikipedia has openly defended (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/105-My-Edward-Herman-biography-project/page3?p=1370&viewfull=1#post1370).

One of the amazing, or perhaps not, aspects of the attacks on Ed is their preventing even any presentation of Ed’s chief theoretical construction, the propaganda model (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#manufacturing), and its predictions (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#predictions), which would expose the reasons for why the only material currently being allowed at his biography is his work on “nefarious bloodbaths,” which is dominated by the attacks on his work, which always misrepresents his stance, which was about how the media treats nefarious bloodbaths. So, their constant hammering on and, in general, lying about Ed’s writings on Cambodia, Yugoslavia, and Rwanda, is actually a proof of his and Noam’s propaganda model in action. It is like dismissing Einstein as a crank without ever mentioning relativity. It is Orwellian to the max.

I am crazily busy at work, and won’t come up for air for a couple of weeks. I was already planning to take it relatively easy on writing over the rest of the summer, but even my posts will suffer over the next few weeks. I’ll respond to them when I can.

Best,

Wade

Hi:

I already plan to make lemonade out of the lemon of how Wikipedia has treated me and my work. Again, I have been through infinitely worse on my journey (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#mr), so, even though my biography project for Ed (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/105-My-Edward-Herman-biography-project?p=1089&viewfull=1#post1089) took most of my “spare” time for the past year and more, I was able to produce a biography (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm) that will have to do until a professional biographer does Ed’s life justice, if one ever comes along. I would hate for my bio to be the last word on Ed’s life. It should be one of the first words, not the last.

Although almost none of my effort on Ed lives at Wikipedia today (however, the Wikiquote page (https://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Edward_S._Herman) survives for now), there are benefits to having one’s own private publishing conduit, and I expect that my bio of Ed will outlive me. Too bad that Ed’s bio today at Wikipedia is an exercise in disinformation, but that is par for the course for the great. Societies honor their living conformists and dead dissidents. :)

An essay is germinating in my head, and I have tentatively titled it, “Ed Herman, the Left, and My Life’s Work.” Ed’s work was significant in my life in more than one way. One member of the peanut gallery at Ed’s bio at Wikipedia called my Wikipedia bio of Ed “hagiography,” soon after reinstating libelous material about Ed (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Edward_S._Herman#Philip_Cross%E2%80%99s_edits) that others removed. Actually, I really don’t mind the label of “hagiography” much, because Ed was a saint. Dennis, Mr. Professor, and Brian (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#adventures) will always head my Pantheon, but Ed sits in the second circle, with Howard (http://ahealedplanet.net/zinn.htm) and Noam (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#chomsky). They all are/were great, great men, whom it was an honor to interact with.

That essay is going to go into some detail of my latest encounter with Wikipedia (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/105-My-Edward-Herman-biography-project/page3?p=1368&viewfull=1#post1368) (and I don’t expect to have others – I have finally learned my lesson), but it won’t be some “woe is me” tale, which I have never written, but it will be about how Wikipedia has become a propaganda organ that actually confirms Ed and Noam’s propaganda model (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#manufacturing), even though Wikipedia is supposedly a non-profit effort, with its main “product” created by volunteers (but sometimes well-paid “volunteers” that work on behalf of various vested interests).

But that is only going to be a point of departure for how an effort like Wikipedia can become a disinformation mill, and it will go into my encounters with Ed and the Left, back to when I first heard of Noam in 1989, and the next year I heard of Lies of Our Times (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#loot). It will cover my growing appreciation of Ed’s work, which led to our correspondence, which began in the late 1990s and continued to his life’s end.

But Ed’s life and mine had overlaps that surprised even me as I studied to write his bio, and his work influenced mine to no small degree. Learning at his scholarly feet might well be the high point of my scholarly career. There won’t be another like him in my life.

I tried to introduce Ed to Brian several times, to no avail, and that is emblematic of the Left’s limitations. Brian wanted to enlist the Left (http://ahealedplanet.net/radleft.htm) in our free energy efforts, but nobody is home in the Left on the really big issues, so big that I had to invent “Epochal (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochaltable)” to describe them, just like environmentalists (http://ahealedplanet.net/purpose.htm#environmentalists), New Agers (http://ahealedplanet.net/purpose.htm#newage), etc.

But even though I was never able to interest the Left in free energy and healing humanity and the planet with it, there was plenty about their work that is germane to mine. It is important work, when its limits are also acknowledged (reshuffling the deck of scarcity (http://ahealedplanet.net/roots.htm#scarcity) is no real solution). Ed lived in the ivory tower, but did an awesome amount of good while seated in his lofty perch. The huge shoes that he leaves behind might never be filled.

Best,

Wade

Hi:

I have a little time to reply to posts. To Krishna’s latest (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1234840&viewfull=1#post1234840), yes, new findings generally push back the dates of when evolutionary trends began. The date of the first life on Earth (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#lifeappears) may be pushed back by hundreds of millions of years (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earliest_known_life_forms). The beginnings of dinosaurs is a very controversial area these days, and fascinating to follow. The idea that sauropods began going big 30 million years earlier than previously thought is no big surprise. The Triassic (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#permianrecovery) is a highly contentious area of study. That hominins got out of Africa by 2.1 million years ago is also not surprising. The early migrations out of Africa (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#migrate1) comprise another area of great controversy. Those hobbits may have been australopiths (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#hobbit), and they controlled fire. That pan-African evolutionary scenario (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1235117&viewfull=1#post1235117) has been gaining steam in recent years. That has been one of my subjects to write about in the big essay update.

Yes, Krishna: probably all landmark legal decisions (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1234840&viewfull=1#post1234840) were political acts. The legal system is an integral part of the political system that looks after elite interests, first, and occasionally some crumbs are allowed to fall off the table for the masses to nibble on, and the postwar boom (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#postwar) created enough prosperity so that even high-caste Indians could get some of those crumbs. :)

Hi Invictos (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1235810&viewfull=1#post1235810):

I am kind of past my channeling phase, which began more than 40 years ago (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#seth). To me, channels can give pep talks and impart their otherworldly perspectives, which can be inspiring indeed, but when a channeled source claims to be God (such as Walsch’s books), call me a bit skeptical. All of those tales of life in other star systems are just tales to me, and we will find out when the ET issue (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ufo2) comes into the open. For now, there is plenty of speculation and little evidence, but I can guarantee you that the global elites (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc) are all over it. Maybe it was in there somewhere, but I did not see any practical advice in righting the ship in that “God-channeled” work (other than “think differently”), and I am about making free energy happen, not preparing to survive a human-made catastrophe. All Epochs have been built on their energetic foundations, and it will be no different for the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5). Unless free energy happens, the rest can’t. I am not trying to reach the masses with clever talk.

Best,

Wade

Hi:

As I recently wrote (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/105-My-Edward-Herman-biography-project/page3?p=1372&viewfull=1#post1372), I am going to make lemonade from the lemon that Wikipedia served up (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/105-My-Edward-Herman-biography-project/page3?p=1368&viewfull=1#post1368), and this coming series of posts will be the raw material for a new essay, which has been on my list of things to do for years. The territory will be familiar, but there will be new material, and it will ultimately deal with my effort to help initiate the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5).

I was a bookworm from the time I could walk (http://ahealedplanet.net/paths.htm#bookworm) and was raised to be a scientist, although I did not shake my mother’s bad habits until I became an adult (tabloids at 13, and TV at 18 (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/70-Distinguishing-the-wheat-from-the-chaff-and-my-life-s-journey?p=102&viewfull=1#post102)). I read the newspaper daily, from age 9 or so, beginning with the local newspaper, graduating to the LA Times when I was in college, and during my first stint in LA, I subscribed to the Christian Science Monitor (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#big), thinking that I was getting alternative news. I had a lot to learn (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#csm), and my lessons began when I met Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#hitting).

The day that I met Dennis, he spoke in front of a thousand people or so (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=602&viewfull=1#post602), with several camera crews recording his talk. A week or so later, I saw the only positive TV account of him that I know of, by a Canadian TV station. A week or so after that, I saw the version presented by a Seattle TV station (http://ahealedplanet.net/COP.htm#news), which was in the Big Lie category, which was my first inkling that the news might not have been about discovering and reporting the truth (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#ethics). The next three years was an education of the kind that you can’t buy, and when I read an “investigative” report on Dennis in the LA Times, in early 1989, I said to myself, “They can just make it up as they go (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page5?p=687&viewfull=1#post687).” I met Gary Wean (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#wean) about a month before reading that LA Times article, I had long since been radicalized (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page5?p=683&viewfull=1#post683), and two months after meeting Gary, Mr. Professor and I sprung Dennis from jail (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#mortgage), in the biggest miracle that I ever witnessed, which we all knew was a case of divine intervention. It was our “friends (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#voice3)” at work once again.

I cannot recall that exact date, but it was around the same time that we sprang Dennis from jail that a roommate told me about some guy named Noam Chomsky (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#chomsky), and I had never heard of him before. The next year, in early 1990, while driving to my job in LA (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#experience) of all places, I heard on the radio somebody who might have been Uncle Ed promoting a new magazine titled Lies of Our Times (LOOT (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#loot)). I was so ready for its message, and after I moved to Ohio later that year, one of the first things that I did was subscribe to it, and my education in the alternative media began, although the first page of my first issue of LOOT (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#loot) is still the one I remember the best, as the New York Times could make it up as it went along. All newspapers can make it up as they go, and the TV news was worse. That sums up the American media, although it would be many years before I wrote my first essay on the subject (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#big). When Ralph McGehee (http://ahealedplanet.net/mcgehee.htm#statement) was forced into the rocking chair by his friends at the CIA, as he was silenced in the Land of the Free (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#mcgehee), I bought what I could from his intelligence library, including the LOOT issues that came out before I subscribed to it, so I have every issue from LOOT’s existence.

LOOT was the beginning of my media studies, and the past year and more of studying Ed’s work, so that I could write his bio (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm), is probably the last such stint in my lifetime, of studying how the media operates. In those days of study in the early 1990s (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page7?p=739&viewfull=1#post739), on a vast array of subjects, I got my hands on all sorts of alternative media literature (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#covert). Noam wrote an article in LOOT every month, Ed was LOOT’s editor for its entire existence, as well as its leading writer, and I had a growing appreciation of Ed’s lucid writings. Even though I was an eager student, it still took me about two years to really understand what Noam was saying. After two years of study, the movie Manufacturing Consent (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manufacturing_Consent_(film)) came out, which was about Noam’s life (which briefly featured Ed), and a month or so after watching the movie at Ohio State (it was the most popular documentary in Canadian history to that time, which played on national TV globally, but it has never aired on an American TV station, which proved Noam’s point in spades), I was driven from my sleep to write a 17-page letter to Noam, about how nobody, anywhere, mainstream or alternative, even mentioned free energy, other than attacks on Dennis. Imagine my surprise when I received a gracious reply from Noam a couple of weeks later, as he described my letter as “tantalizing,” but he said that he did not know anything about the subject and advised me to seek an “expert.” Well, there weren’t any, so I had to become my own. :)

We traded letters a few more times, and I sent him my second “book,” which was really a diary of my days with Dennis and Ralph Hovnanian’s quotation collage (http://ahealedplanet.net/mdaq.htm), and our correspondence ended on a friendly note. I was given the polite brush-off, but I never held that against Noam. He had plenty on his plate, and his attention to my correspondence out of the blue was an honor and delight.

I read Manufacturing Consent (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#manufacturing) in the early 1990s, and soon got my hands on all of Ed’s writings that I could. When I wrote my site as it largely stands today, in the late 1990s, I began corresponding with Ed. As with Noam, Ed was easy to reach and a pleasant correspondent. Ed was a better writer than Noam, very witty, and I began calling him Uncle Ed back then, and I even have an email or two from Ed, signed off with “Uncle Ed.” :) Those early days of media studies and correspondence with Ed and Noam were a generation ago, and what a privilege to be in the audience while those men were in the primes of their political writing careers. The USA may never see any others like them, along with Uncle Howard (http://ahealedplanet.net/zinn.htm) and a few others. Uncle Noam is going to go down in history as one of its leading intellectuals and arguably the greatest that the USA ever produced, while most Americans have never heard of him.

This post begins what will be quite a series of posts (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/122-Ed-Herman-the-Left-and-My-Life-s-Work?p=1374&viewfull=1#post1374), which will be grist for that essay.

Best,

Wade

Hi all :) I've just wanted to share with you a 2007 mainstream media article about who edits wikipedia:
https://www.wired.com/2007/08/wiki-tracker
http://virgil.gr/page/2016/10/4/wikiscanner
No longer operational due to "maintenance costs" (yeah right)...

It also has its own entry in the wikipedia ;)

Hi:

I put up what the original Ed Wikipedia articles looked like, before my contributions were erased:

Ed’s bio (http://ahealedplanet.net/edbio.htm)
The propaganda model (http://ahealedplanet.net/edprop.htm)
Manufacturing Consent (http://ahealedplanet.net/edmanu.htm)
The Political Economy of Human Rights (http://ahealedplanet.net/edpehr.htm)

The links won’t all work, but most seem to.

What happened was not too surprising, unfortunately. What I hoped was that, of course, my changes would be edited (that is what Wikipedia is all about), but that the basic framework would survive relatively intact, as well as the key information. I could see my sections on Rwanda (http://ahealedplanet.net/edbio.htm#The_Tutsi_conquest_of_Rwanda_and_invasion_of_the_Congo), for instance, get trimmed down into fewer categories, but that the basic information would survive. I expected the peanut gallery that is “managing” Ed’s bio today would do their libelous best, and I would have to do battle, but my work was erased and I am forbidden from editing anything related to Ed, because I had corresponded with him and he “wished” that I would help make his bio better.

Obviously, my changes to Ed’s bio are the most dramatic, turning his bio from the libelous stub that it is today to something that does his life and career justice. Realistically, my only “crime” was predominantly using primary sources, Ed’s writings, rather than the secondary literature, but it was an article about him, and he has not had a professional bio written yet. Ed and Noam’s propaganda model has been written about plenty, but the mainstream “notable” sources are not going to, because Ed and Noam’s work exposes them. That is a Catch-22 that can keep their work forever on the margins, which Ed might have called a structural constraint. I would be have been happy to see what kind of muting of my supposedly POV language would have looked like. I thought that it was pretty neutral to begin with, but I am admittedly close to the material. Editors are nice to have. I was curious as to what an honest edit would look like, and Prop9 began on that, before the admin swooped in and erased everything.

One section that I added to the propaganda model, on its predictions (http://ahealedplanet.net/edprop.htm#Predictions_of_the_propaganda_model), is like adding relativity’s predictions to an article on relativity, and Noam was the author of the model’s predictions. It is hard to take exception to that, and it makes the attacks on Ed and Noam’s writings on Cambodia, Yugoslavia, and Rwanda – nefarious bloodbaths (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#bloodbaths) – understandable. That is pretty much all that Ed’s bio at Wikipedia is today. The article as it stands today is an exercise in disinformation. The subsequent assessments section (http://ahealedplanet.net/edprop.htm#Subsequent_assessments) seemed appropriate to me, but I would have expected some editing.

I thought that my rewrite of the Political Economy of Human Rights (http://ahealedplanet.net/edpehr.htm) article would survive almost intact, although, of course, Noam’s assailants would come running, to continue the smear campaign against Noam on Cambodia (http://ahealedplanet.net/edpehr.htm#Campaign_to_portray_Chomsky_as_a_Khmer_Rouge_supporter_and_genocide_denier).

For the Manufacturing Consent article, I merely added summaries of the book’s chapters (http://ahealedplanet.net/edmanu.htm#Case_studies_of_the_propaganda_model_in_action), added information from the 2002 edition (http://ahealedplanet.net/edmanu.htm#2002_edition) and balanced out the reception section (http://ahealedplanet.net/edmanu.htm#Reception) a little. I left in Gitlin’s inane comments, which Fred Gardner ably critiqued (https://www.counterpunch.org/2017/12/01/obituary-politics-todd-gitlin-puts-down-ed-herman/).

Prop9 is trying to improve Ed’s bio (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Edward_S._Herman#Proposed_changes_to_the_article_structure), but has an uphill battle. I’ll watch with interest.

Best,

Wade

Thanks Robert (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1236788&viewfull=1#post1236788):

Yes, people rampantly edit articles about themselves (the CIA, Pentagon, and the like have been very active, for instance), but since they do it anonymously, they get away with it, while honest efforts like mine get erased. This is Wikipedia’s “evenhandedness” in action once again. I certainly did not make the plagiarism “crimes” that I was accused of – the idea of plagiarizing my public-domain self is insane – and even the copyright “violations” that I was accused of are on shaky ground (most of those same quotes live on the Wikiquote page that I built for Ed (https://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Edward_S._Herman), and the Wiki-censors don’t seem to have a problem with that), leaving my last “crime,” which was corresponding with Ed over 20 years and offering to make his Wikipedia bio better (http://ahealedplanet.net/edbio.htm). I was taken to task by the rude admin for my talk page comments (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Heinz_Haber#Accusations_of_war_crimes) on a German scientist who was the sidekick of death camp Nazis, whose bio has been openly managed by his son into an outright hagiographic article. At Wikipedia, Ed gets smeared, while a close associate of death camp Nazis gets hagiographic treatment, and I get taken to task for pointing it out. Put that in your pipe and smoke it. That is the kind of behavior for which Ed said “hypocrisy” was not strong enough to describe, so he began using “chutzpah (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#chutzpah).”

But I had the book thrown at me, with my work erased, among insults and threats from the admin.

Apparently, my real “crime” was exposing the fraudulent edits (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Edward_S._Herman#Philip_Cross%E2%80%99s_edits) made by a disinformation effort that Wikipedia’s co-founder has openly defended (https://caitlinjohnstone.com/2018/05/20/wikipedia-is-an-establishment-psyop/), and trying to give Ed’s life a little justice, amongst all the libel thrown at him. I had crashed the smear party, and for that, I was taken out back and shot. Of course, different reasons have to be proffered for the treatment afforded me. The real reasons cannot be stated.

Best,

I would guess that plagiarism claims are easy to fabricate against a comprehensivist of your calibre. (compliment: referring to your prodigious knowledge base)

You get a gold star for your performance this weekend

Thanks Wade. I did not want to get involved at all. I was just getting out popcorn to watch the movie at Wikipedia. I knew wikipedia was bad, and that's why I never edited anything remotely controversial. My most controversial edits are on One Child Policy (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One-child_policy) and they are not being reverted or obfuscated etc.. I find that strange. I can only conclude that China has moved on and does not care about criticism from the "West" about its one child policy.

Coming back to why I got involved. Wikipedia has gone from bad to toxic and abusive. I could not continue to stay a bystander when it became so abusive. I don't think of the abuse as coming from one admin, it is wikipedia that is toxic and abusive.

I don’t want you to get banned from Wikipedia, so you can back off for now.
I dont care either way. I am not a wikipedia editor or contributor. I contribute to the world, and wikipedia is a means to that end. If they ban me, then it is their problem, not mine.

I already plan to make lemonade out of the lemon of how Wikipedia has treated me and my work.

Please don't do this now. You can come back to this once you update your energy essay.

Finally since I won a gold star I want you to do a favor for me. I want you to read "Hunger and Public Action", "An Uncertain Glory: India and its contradictions", and "Education First!: From Martin Luther to Sustainable Development (https://www.amazon.com/Education-First-Martin-Sustainable-Development-ebook/dp/B074MWC5PY) by Wolfgang Lutz, Reiner Klingholz". I am not entirely sure why I asking you to read them. But I feel that it might be useful when you update your essay. Thats your home work from me Wade 8)

Hi Ernie (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1236883&viewfull=1#post1236883):

I have seen the word “plagiarism” thrown around pretty indiscriminately during my writing career. It seems to be used in a one-size-fits-all way that I don’t agree with. I have seen these behaviors called “plagiarism”:

Wholesale theft of another author’s work, in both the ideas and sometimes even the words, calling them one’s own, and selling them for profit.
Using the exact words of an author and calling them one’s own, with no reference at all to the copied work, often limited to a phrase or two, but can even be paragraphs of copied writings;
Using the exact words of an author, but referencing the work, while some of the exact words, in a phrase, for instance, were not put in quotes;
“Plagiarizing” one’s own writings, and in my latest adventures at Wikipedia, even though I had given away the rights to my work on my home page, I was somehow guilty of “plagiarizing” my public-domain self.

That first instance of plagiarism is by far the most egregious, and is akin to the theft of a patent, which Mr. Mentor was victimized by (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#glimpse) repeatedly. That is the slimiest and arguably criminal form of plagiarism, numerous high-profile lawsuits have accompanied that kind of plagiarism, and anybody with the slightest familiarity with my work knows that I have never come remotely close to doing that, partly because I have never charged for my work. I have constantly given credit for where I got ideas from, such as here (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#paradigm).

That second kind from the list above is also pretty bad, and it has happened to me. I also have never come close to doing anything like the second form, especially consciously. My work has drawn from a vast corpus of literature. It is possible that some ideas germinated from something I once read, which I did not directly cite, but it would have been inadvertent. I have constantly credited and cited seminal works, such as Uncle Bucky’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/roots.htm#fuller). I can guarantee that no significant source of ideas has ever failed to receive credit in my work.

That third one I may have been occasionally guilty of, and the only instance that I saw from that rude admin that could have qualified was this phrase, which that admin expunged from Brian’s bio: “O'Leary was specifically selected for a potential manned Mars mission when it was still in NASA’s program plan.” When I look at what is left of Brian’s bio at Wikipedia, a lot of it is still my work, so that admin had better completely erase Brian from Wikipedia! :) That “plagiarized” phrase has some interesting history, they are actually Brian’s words, as I had him write that sentence and made sure that it was never altered during the editing process, as Brian was the best qualified to write that sentence, and it is his unique distinction.

Brian’s astronaut bio at NASA’s site (https://www.jsc.nasa.gov/Bios/htmlbios/oleary-bt.html) is my work, other than that “plagiarized” sentence from Brian, I had quite an adventure getting it published (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog?p=284&viewfull=1#post284), and a leading space debunker took exception to that very phrase in Brian’s bio, enlisted a NASA historian to debunk it, in one of the most idiotic exercises that I ever saw (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/91-Scientific-literacy/page3?p=556&viewfull=1#post556), and Brian gave me the von Braun and Shepard anecdotes (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianbio.htm#vonbraun) in case I had to battle with the debunkers over Brian’s NASA bio. So, even though the phrase had a note that linked to Brian’s NASA bio, which I was the author of, that phrase was technically Brian’s, and I did not have it in quotes. Guilty as charged. That was the only legitimate “plagiarism” that I saw identified by that admin, which led to the complete erasure of my work. Again, not a reversion, in which a person could see the editing history, but a KGB-like erasure, in which the reader will never know what I wrote, although I just tried to rectify it a little, with the version that I had back in March 2011 (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianwiki.htm). I have long hosted my original non-Wikipedia bio for Brian (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianbio.htm#vonbraun). Having my own publishing conduit comes in very handy. Think of the irony of Brian’s own words being on his Wikipedia bio, but not within quotation marks, and that was the rationale for erasing most of his bio.

I still can’t understand that fourth category of “plagiarism,” which seems to be the primary rationale for erasing all of my Wikipedia contributions at Ed’s and Brian’s bios. Although I gave away all of the rights to my writings on my site’s home page (http://ahealedplanet.net/home.htm) long ago, using my own words in my own writings is somehow “plagiarizing” myself, which went beyond the pale. Maybe an attorney can explain it to me one day. One thing is for sure: Wikipedia is not the encyclopedia for the masses, but is a disinformation campaign for anything with any political-economic impact on elite interests. How my contributions have been treated is exhibit A.

Best,

Wade

Hi Krishna:

There is a lot of territory to cover relating to your post (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1236906&viewfull=1#post1236906). I’ll agree that Wikipedia’s failings don’t come from one source, but Wikipedia’s remaining co-founder is a neo-con (https://www.craigmurray.org.uk/archives/2018/05/the-philip-cross-affair/), which explains plenty. I exposed (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Edward_S._Herman#Philip_Cross%E2%80%99s_edits) one of his favorite editors. And disinformation professionals such as Cross have enabling “editors” that follow them around like remora, as it is with Ed’s current bio version. Those people generally don’t have consciences as we think of them, so they can be shameless, such as one editor at Ed’s bio that not only reinstated Cross’s highly misleading account, while incredibly calling it well-sourced, but he has cast aspersions at anybody at Ed’s article who is not participating in the attacks and trying to at least make the bio more neutral, accusing them of sock-puppetry and the like, making up his accusations out of the blue. It was similar to that rude admin’s accusing me of “canvassing” and other baseless claims. They can simply make it up as they go, with impunity, while people like me have their work not only reverted, but completely erased on the flimsiest of pretexts, and that rude, censorious admin kept hurling insults and threats at me. I expect trolls to do that, but not admins.

That recent foray at Wikipedia was an example of why I don’t join open-comers forums anymore. I learned my lesson long ago (http://ahealedplanet.net/critics.htm#troll), and when the admins start in, as one did to a forum that I was invited into (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/94-My-last-posts-in-another-forum?p=639&viewfull=1#post639), it is time to move on. On anything remotely controversial and potentially impacting elite interests, Wikipedia is a miserable excuse of an information resource, and all-too-often, it is outright disinformation and libel, such as how Ed’s bio stands today. An impressive editor is taking up the gauntlet (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Edward_S._Herman#Proposed_changes_to_the_article_structure), and we will see how it goes, but I am not holding my breath. I bought my popcorn for the show. :) I will still likely link to Wikipedia in my essay update, but with an even stronger caveat (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#wikipedia).

I was already planning to take the rest of the summer off from serious writing, such as working on my big essay update, and I had already been planning for years on writing about my interactions with the Left, and was already planning on following my contributions to Ed’s work at Wikipedia with that essay that I am already roughing out in this series of posts (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/122-Ed-Herman-the-Left-and-My-Life-s-Work), and I don’t plan to stop that effort, even with what happened at Wikipedia. So, this is not setting back my essay update effort any, and it will be very germane to my effort of building the choir (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir).

On the homework that you gave me, I am looking at those two Drèze and Sen books that you mention, on a bookshelf on my office, and I’ll see if I can get to them before my essay update. Not sure if you are aware, but Ed cited Hunger and Public Action (http://www.coldtype.net/Assets.12/PDFs/0812.PinkerCrit.pdf) in his and Peterson’s shredding of Pinker’s imperial valentine (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#pinker). Pinker was citing a far right source, and Ed pointed out the “Structural Violence” in how India’s holocaust was ongoing but invisible in the West, while every crime and mistake by a communist regime was front-page news. That third book that you recommend is only available by Kindle, and I never get any works that way. A scholar, like any professional, cannot afford to rent his tools. Obviously, my work is all about education, so I doubt that I am missing much in that work.

We’ll see what of Drèze and Sen’s work makes it into my essay update. I am not too concerned in my work about bringing Third Epoch peasants into the Fourth Epoch, but bringing Fourth Epoch peoples into the Fifth (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5). I know that your heart is with India’s peasantry, and what the British did to them is a historic crime, which I have written about plenty (1 (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#bengal), 2 (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#demographic2)), and we’ll see what makes it into my essay update, which might be the most significant one that I will ever do. It will likely take at least a year of my “spare” time to do, and I am in no rush. Then it will be off to more visibility work, building that choir, and I might even publish a book, which would be a highly abridged version of my big essay. There is a lot on my plate, and I am not getting any younger. :)

On a lighter note, attached are some pics from July hikes, including one to here (https://www.wta.org/go-hiking/hikes/grand-park), yesterday. I think that that is my ninth visit to that amazing meadow. My favorite aunt and uncle (who introduced me to hiking (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page10?p=1146&viewfull=1#post1146)) took me there for the first time in 1990, when we did not see another person all day (and hiked through a herd of elk). Those days are long gone, as Seattle becomes a metropolis. Now, the trails are jammed. You have to work hard to avoid the crowds now.

Wade,
What if any is the relationship or effect of 1492 on Martin Luther, he wrote his famous theses in 1517 it cannot be coincidence that his writing had an effect right after the "discovery" of Americas. I also wonder what effect it had on his thinking and writing itself. Any thoughts.

Hi Krishna:

Great question (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1237144&viewfull=1#post1237144), and here is an article (https://www.huffingtonpost.com/lee-wandel/columbus-and-luther-history-reformation_b_953023.html) that links them. “Discovering” the Western Hemisphere (http://ahealedplanet.net/columbus.htm#first) eroded belief in the Bible’s infallibility (which made no mention of such lands), and that did influence Luther. It was quite a tumultuous time in Europe. I wrote that Charles V outlawed Luther at the Diet of Worms (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#charles) in 1521, which marked the peak of Hapsburg power, but that that event also marked the beginning of its decline and more than a century of warfare in Europe, culminating in the Thirty Years War (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#violence), which was Europe’s most violent period until the Napoleonic Wars.

That is the short answer, and might answer your immediate question.

Hi Krishna:

To your Martin Luther question (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1237144&viewfull=1#post1237144), your buddy Ian Morris would also place Luther and what happened in a larger context. I think that it is legitimate to wonder how influential New World societies were in triggering the Enlightenment (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#voltaire), and Europe’s rise of reason and science was definitely influenced by the reintroduction of “pagan” Greek teachings via captured Islamic libraries (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#toledo). I think that what Luther did was influenced by the same dynamics that caused the New World events, and the erosion of Biblical infallibility by discovering lands not described in the Bible was part of it. I would say that Martin Luther’s work and the “discovery (http://ahealedplanet.net/columbus.htm#first)” of the New World had the same ultimate cause, which was the rise of Europe (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal35). Luther and Columbus were affected by the process of European expansion. The printing press was invented a half-century before Columbus’s fateful voyage, and the Church intended to use it for further Catholic hegemony, but it backfired. Rising literacy ended up being a threat to Church authority. It was better for Church hegemony to have illiterate peasants, with a priesthood interpreting the “good book” for them, than a literate and rising middle class.

The 1521 Diet of Worms, in which Charles condemned Luther, happened at the height of his power, as his armies marauded through Europe, he was the Holy Roman Emperor, plunder rolled in from the New World (the Aztecs were conquered in 1521), and the Church had never had such success in recruiting members of the flock, with thousands of the native survivors baptized daily. But it soon began to unravel, and when Charles stepped down in 1556, the Crown was nearly bankrupt (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#bankrupt). In 1559, the infamous Index of banned books (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#index) was first published, and wars soon raged across Europe. When the dust finally cleared in 1648, the Church would never regain its hegemony in Northern Europe. The fighting extended to the New World, and the big losers were the natives.

The fitful rise of science (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#modernscience) began then, too. One deforested imperial contestant turned to coal (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#coaluse), and the Fourth Epoch began. Those were chaotic, seminal times, and untangling the dynamics is not easy. Morris credits the increase of Europe’s effective hinterland by learning to sail the oceans (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#portugal), and I will not disagree, but it was an unparalleled disaster for the world’s peoples, with an unprecedented demographic catastrophe (http://ahealedplanet.net/columbus.htm#genocide) that depopulated three continents, another continent had its people forcibly enslaved (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#slavery1) to replace the quickly decimated natives of the New World (and the Arab slave trade (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#arabslave) was nearly as bad), and that “stimulating” Transatlantic trade network was wholly evil, as its principle products were slaves, sugar (effectively a drug), rum, and gold and silver bought with millions of native lives. It was a rape-and-plunder economy. England’s first capitalist “bubble (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#southseas)” was over the slave trade, and the rape of India (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#bengal) began about when the Industrial Revolution began taking off.

For me, during my studies, seeing what Europe used its increasing technological prowess for (conquering humanity), and what the USA did with its postwar hegemony (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#connection), it was all evil, in my opinion. White people had a chance to unite humanity with a rise of living standards that would be epochal in significance, but it used its advantage to slaughter and enslave humanity. You may be a high-caste beneficiary who is eating imperial crumbs, but the vast majority of your countrymen live lives of misery to this day, thanks to the rise of Britain. I wrote about Jimmy Wales being a neo-con (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1236994&viewfull=1#post1236994), and that has plenty to do with the propaganda article on Ed today at Wikipedia. Wales married Tony Blair’s secretary (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jimmy_Wales#Personal_life), and met her at the capitalist enclave at Davos. I don’t need to remind too many people that Blair played Mussolini to Bush’s Hitler. When they had their pre-invasion “summit” in the Azores (https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2003/03/azor-m17.html), it was literally hosted by a fascist (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jos%C3%A9_Mar%C3%ADa_Aznar#Early_life) (Portugal is Spain’s little buddy). I truly hope that Blair is remembered like Mussolini is, but that won’t happen at Wikipedia. :)

Hi:

To continue that thread that I began (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/122-Ed-Herman-the-Left-and-My-Life-s-Work?p=1374&viewfull=1#post1374) on Ed, the Left, and my life’s work, the essay that these posts will be grist for I don’t intend to be scholarly, but it will mainly be memories of my journey. I don’t plan to consult many books and other sources of information as I write it, but I will primarily ransack my memory.

I just took a short spin through my emails, and it looks like I began using Outlook in earnest in 2000. I used Netscape’s email program, as I recall, before then, but I doubt that I will find those emails. I have everything going back to 2000, I believe, but I think that I began emailing Ed before that. My first correspondence with Noam (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#chomsky) was 1992, I contacted Ralph McGehee in 1996 (http://ahealedplanet.net/mcgehee.htm), in preparation for publishing my first site, but I had no public presence for a couple of years soon after that, and if I had to guess, I think that I began trading email with Ed in 1998 or 1999. It was always friendly, and I really can’t recall what our first emails were about, other than praising Ed and eagerly sitting at his scholarly feet. Our first exchange that sits clearly in my memory is when Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch were campaigning to have Milosevic delivered to the kangaroo court tribunal at The Hague (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#amnesty). I naively donated to Amnesty International in those days, and receiving their pleas to help their campaign to have Milosevic captured and delivered to The Hague was shocking. I asked Ed about it, and he agreed that it was scandalous (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/105-My-Edward-Herman-biography-project?p=1101&viewfull=1#post1101). He said that he only donated to local human rights groups anymore, and he mentioned a few around the Balkans. I think that we traded those emails in 1999, or it might have been as late as 2000. Ed exposed Human Rights Watch as an imperial tool early on, and I asked him to do something similar for Amnesty International, but he said that he was not planning to, so it was nice to see him give Amnesty similar treatment in later years (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#hrw).

In those days, I contacted lefties, looking for free energy allies, but nobody was home. I had my email address on my site until 2002 and took on all comers, in those days of Internet innocence. Noam’s gracious response was one of the few that I ever received from the Left. One day, I wrote to Ed that energy was the basis of all economic systems, and that it was the key to humanity’s future, and he agreed, but his focus was on banking and the exchange (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#exchange) aspect of economics, and he said that he needed to get into the energy issue one day, but he really never did. I certainly did not hold that against Ed; he was unparalleled as a media analyst, and had his hands full with that. Brian and I began collaborating in earnest in 2001 (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#new), and Brian was a Lefty. I tried several times to introduce Brian to Ed, but Ed never took me up on it. It is a lasting source of sadness to this day. Back then, I saw it as the best chance that the Left had to begin comprehending the free energy issue. Brian and Ed were both former Ivy League professors and had plenty in common, going back to Vietnam Era protests.

During our NEM days (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#nem), Brian said that his and my job was enlisting the Left, but nobody was ever home. Almost all that we got were catcalls (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#awaken), and Brian played the Paul Revere of Free Energy (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#revere) for several years before he began openly wondering if humanity was a sentient species (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#sentience). One of the more memorable groups were environmentalists, as Alden Bryant soon learned (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#reactions) (and as I learned many years earlier (http://ahealedplanet.net/purpose.htm#environmentalists)), and I later learned that environmentalists had been treating free energy like the enemy since at least the 1970s (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/89-Free-energy-psychic-abilities-and-the-skeptics-and-debunkers/page2?p=438&viewfull=1#post438). Everybody slammed the doors in our faces, and it took me many years to understand what we were seeing: a general addiction to scarcity (http://ahealedplanet.net/hooked.htm#misinformation), or, perhaps, a better way to say it would be that their adaptive behaviors for surviving in a world of scarcity stunted their perspectives, and when I discovered Uncle Bucky’s work in early 2003 (http://ahealedplanet.net/roots.htm#fuller), it all began to become clear to me.

After receiving a polite silence from Ed after about a half-dozen attempts to interest him in free energy, and to also introduce him to Brian, I gave up and never tried again, after about 2004. I never held it against Ed, but it was emblematic of the problems in attracting the Left’s interest, which to this day is still the likeliest ally that I know of, but they have their ideological commitments (http://ahealedplanet.net/radleft.htm#religion) that blind them to the bigger picture. I probably did not contact Ed much for the rest of my midlife crisis (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#midlife), which finally ended in 2006.

Best,

Wade

Hi:

I have an eidetic memory, and have only met one person whose memory I can tell is better than mine, and his is truly extraordinary. Like me, his memory is not as good as it used to be, but for many years, you could pick any day on the calendar from 20 years previously, and he could tell you, in detail, what he did that day. Mine is not nearly that good, but I have vivid memories of all years of my life, going back to age two, and I have been thinking about my early years of reading Ed’s work. 1990 was a particularly memorable year for me. I got married, Dennis got rooked into the plea bargain (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#bargain) that nearly cost him his life (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#mistakes), I had another great hiking summer (http://ahealedplanet.net/pics.htm#whitney), I moved away from the town where I was raised, never to return, began to put my wife through graduate school in Ohio, and began the studies (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page7?p=734&viewfull=1#post734) that resulted in my site. My alternative media studies began that year, starting with my subscription to Lies of Our Times (LOOT). The first page of my first issue of LOOT is still the one that I remember best, as I saw that the New York Times could also make it up as it went along (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#loot), which was a situation that I was all-too-familiar with (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/122-Ed-Herman-the-Left-and-My-Life-s-Work?p=1374&viewfull=1#post1374).

To once again address Wikipedia’s charges that I am a careless plagiarist and copyright infringer (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/105-My-Edward-Herman-biography-project/page3?p=1368&viewfull=1#post1368), back around 2000, I asked Ed for permission to reproduce those images (http://ahealedplanet.net/nyt.jpg) that I copied from LOOT. Since my site is non-commercial, I could play the Fair Use card for every quote and image on my site, but I virtually always ask permission, going back to Ralph McGehee and my 1996 site (http://ahealedplanet.net/mcgehee.htm), which has led to some amazing exchanges (1 (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page6?p=738&viewfull=1#post738), 2 (http://ahealedplanet.net/zinn.htm)).

Ed was LOOT’s editor, and he was happy that I presented those images. LOOT was long-defunct by then, and Ed was happy to see some of LOOT survive in my work. One day back then, Ed wrote that what I had done with my site – putting my essays all under one roof – he hoped to do with his work one day. Alas, he never did, as his work is scattered around the Internet. But, frankly, Ed’s output was so prodigious that it would have been quite a task.

When I subscribed to LOOT, Noam was the main attraction for me. I heard of him for the first time (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#big) the previous year, so I finally got to read the work of this obscure figure. As I have written, it took me about two years to really understand what Noam was saying, as it was so radically different from anything that I had been taught before. In a LOOT issue in the autumn of 1990 was an ad for Ralph McGehee’s book, and reading it was a seminal moment of my awakening.

Ed was not the main attraction for me in those early days, and I had no idea who he was when I began reading LOOT. I began subscribing to Z Magazine a year or two later, and have continually subscribed to this day. Somewhere in those first two years of media studies, I began to gain an appreciation of Noam’s sidekick. Ed’s work was easier to read than Noam’s, and Ed was pretty funny as a writer. Ed had a dry wit, and he dealt with very heavy material, such as genocides. That is not an easy dance, to inject a little humor into such dark material, but Ed deftly did it. I began obtaining books early in my studies, and steadily built my personal library that stands at about 2,000 books today. Manufacturing Consent (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#manufacturing) was probably the first book of Ed’s that I bought, and by the time that LOOT’s final issue came out in 1994, I was decidedly impressed with Ed. It was probably around that time when his monthly articles in Z Magazine became the main attraction in Z for me, and I began thinking about him as Uncle Ed. From 1990 until his death (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#death), hardly a month went by that I did not read something by Ed.

When I wrote my site, largely as it stands today, between 1997 and 2002, I used a lot of Ed’s work, such as his The Political Economy of Human Rights (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#second), written with Noam. I wrote about the suppression of his first book with Noam (http://ahealedplanet.net/critics.htm#crv), I reproduced Ed’s National Security State propaganda framework (http://ahealedplanet.net/critics.htm#framing), I used Ed’s writings on Yugoslavia (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#yugobreakup), I summarized the propaganda model (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#manufacturing), etc. He was firmly Uncle Ed to me, by the time that I contacted him in the late 1990s, and Ed did not disappoint as a correspondent.

Ed was not your typical Lefty. He did not have the “conspiracy phobia (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#parenti)” that many in the Left did, and Ed was a structuralist extraordinaire. In his Doublespeak Dictionary (https://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Edward_S._Herman#Doublespeak_Dictionary_(within_Beyond_Hypocrisy)), Ed wrote about the Magic Bullet (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page8?p=762&viewfull=1#post762) and “conspiracy theories.” The cover story of one LOOT issue was about the forged backyard photos (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#backyard) of Oswald. Ed was appreciative of my account of Gary’s adventures regarding the JFK hit (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#wean). Those events had all happened by 2002, which was about the time that I tried interesting Ed in free energy and began trying to introduce him to Brian (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/122-Ed-Herman-the-Left-and-My-Life-s-Work?p=1380&viewfull=1#post1380), to no avail. Ed was far from the only Lefty that I contacted in those days, but on the subject of free energy, only he and Noam ever gave me the time of day. All of the lesser lights blew me off, and I rarely even heard back from them.

Best,

Wade

Hi:

I don’t have much time this morning, but in the conclusion of After the Cataclysm, Noam and Ed noted the American media’s achievement of erasing the American bludgeoning of Indochina, turning the USA “from causal agent to bystander (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#causal),” as it righteously moralized about the Khmer Rouge, even though the USA supported Pol Pot (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#cambodia1) after Vietnam overthrew him and ended the Cambodian genocide.

I don’t want to be too hard on them, but there is a cottage industry in science and scholarship that strenuously denies that humans had anything to do with the megafauna extinctions (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#climatechange2), including our cousin species (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#climateneanderthal). Paper after paper is churned out that argues that climate change did it, or various “anything but humans” hypotheses.

IMO, the similarities are not coincidental, and are all about defending one’s in-group (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ingroup). It is the American state being defended regarding the media and Indochina, and it is humanity, or perhaps the ancestors of the world’s indigenous peoples, being defended regarding the megafauna and human extinctions.

As I noted regarding the history profession (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#objectivity), in one of my site’s oldest essays, the documents obtained are less important than the bias of the historian sifting through them (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#bias). To me, these are just examples of my journey’s primary lesson (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page6?p=708&viewfull=1#post708). That is the reason for our predicament, and all other factors pale to insignificance.

As Noam noted, Ed was a model of integrity (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#edintegrity), and that, more than anything else, attracted me to him.

Best,

Wade

Hi:

I decided to look at what was left of Brian’s Wikipedia biography (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brian_O%27Leary), in a little detail, after that rude admin got done with it. Even though this is about eight years later, it confirmed my strategy of doing Brian’s NASA bio (https://www.jsc.nasa.gov/Bios/htmlbios/oleary-bt.html), first, to head off the “skeptics (http://ahealedplanet.net/dennis.htm#friends)” and other assailants, and even then, they gave it a shot (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/91-Scientific-literacy/page3?p=556&viewfull=1#post556). My thinking was that if I got it on the record with NASA, first, the assailants at Wikipedia would have a hard time of it. Although the last 20 years of Brian’s life, on the free energy quest, has been completely erased at Wikipedia (at least his books are mentioned), at least his Martian credentials survived, which is his unique distinction. The astronaut corps treated me great (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog?p=284&viewfull=1#post284), as the most famous active astronaut treated me graciously in a situation that was highly politically charged. At Wikipedia, it has been a little different.

That rude Wikipedia admin wrote early on in his campaign that it was not the content that he had a problem with, but how I did it: knowing Brian, “plagiarizing” myself, and the like. But when I looked at his edits, he got very editorial, passing judgment on Brian’s scientific career. Brian was an early advocate of coordinating efforts to get stellar occultation data (http://science.sciencemag.org/content/175/4026/1108), and one of his papers was among the first of an international organization devoted to such observations (http://www.poyntsource.com/IOTAmanual/References.htm), and Brian wrote a paper with Tom Van Flandern (https://www.bing.com/search?q=Io%27s+triaxial+figure+o%27leary&pc=MOZI&form=MOZTSB) in 1972 on one such famous occultation. That admin erased all references to Brian’s occultation work (https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Brian_O%27Leary&action=history) while dismissing it as unremarkable, and while erasing everything about Brian’s work on free energy, that admin literally said about what was primarily my work, “This was a f**king mess,” and dismissed it all as “hagiographic” as he erased it. Not reverted, but erased, as if it never existed, other than the public taking his word for it that he fixed a “f**king mess.” The degradation of Internet discourse (http://ahealedplanet.net/critics.htm#troll) is reaching its nadir, when that kind of writing, by an admin, no less, is found at the source that pops up first when almost any kind of Internet search is done today.

So, that admin is all over it, making sure that no “hagiography” graces Wikipedia, as he heroically cleans up f**king messes at Wikipedia. Among that admin’s erasures, insults, and threats, he also took me to task for my contribution to a talk page (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Heinz_Haber#Accusations_of_war_crimes) on a German scientist who was the protégé of a doctor involved with human experiments in the death camps, and with his background sanitized by Operation Paperclip, he was able to wrangle quite the career in the USA, not only publishing papers with his human experiment mentor (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#strughold), but he got to be Wernher von Braun’s sidekick on a Disney TV show and write a children’s book that extolled the virtues of nuclear energy. Declassified documents tell the story today, but that German scientist’s biography at Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heinz_Haber) is outright hagiography. So, while all over my “hagiography” of Brian, that admin took me to task for challenging the treatment of a German scientist while that admin simultaneously turned a blind eye to that hagiography, which has been actively policed by that Nazi’s son. I wonder if that hagiographic account will outlive me. It is almost beyond words, the kind of “selective enforcement” that happens at Wikipedia today.

That reasonable editor is now making changes to Ed’s bio (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_S._Herman), and we’ll see how that goes. I expect fur to fly. Philip Cross already reverted one of his changes, which he reverted back, with support. That reasonable editor is a paragon of editorial virtue, and he believes in Wikipedia. I hope that it goes well for his effort. So far, as far as Ed is concerned, Wikipedia is confirming, in spades, Ed and Noam’s propaganda model (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#manufacturing). Maybe we should leave it as is, as a testament to Ed’s work. :)

Best,

Wade

Hi:

Two editors are working on Ed’s bio, trying to improve it, partly by copying over parts of Noam’s bio (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Edward_S._Herman#Copied_text_from_Noam_Chomsky_re_Counter-Revolutionary_Violence:_Bloodbaths_in_Fact_&_Propaganda). We will see how far their effort takes them. The opposition is going to be loyal (some may be well-paid, as Cross may be). I want to call out something about Wikipedia’s deceptions that are partly structural, which Ed might have appreciated. In the world of scholarship, it is far more effective to lie by omission than by commission. Uncle Howard (http://ahealedplanet.net/zinn.htm) also discussed another propaganda device, in which something is not omitted, but briefly mentioned in the name of completeness (to avoid the charge of omission), but quickly buried, so that genocide becomes an obscure footnote to a rousing tale of adventure and discovery (http://ahealedplanet.net/columbus.htm#zinn).

George Washington has probably been subjected to more hagiography than any other American. I have yet to see even one biography of Washington that even mentions his greatest feat: crafting the blueprint for stealing a continent, which was a criminal plan that worked brilliantly. Using Washington’s advice, the USA forced treaties onto the Indian nations that were not worth the paper they were printed on, as a low-intensity method of swindling them out of their land and lives. Historians cannot find even one treaty with the Indians that the USA honored, because the USA never intended to honor them. It was a fraudulent strategy at the outset. I have written on Washington’s grand plan extensively (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#blueprint), with primary documents and numerous history books, but it has never made it into a biography of Washington that I have seen. Just last week, I had some time to kill in a store that had copies of a recent Washington bio for sale. I think it was this Pulitzer-Prize-winning effort (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Washington:_A_Life) (but there are so many that maybe it was another work). I searched in it, and there was not a word about his greatest feat, among quite a bit of discussion about Washington’s relations with the Indians. More than a decade ago, somebody mentioned my work (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:George_Washington/Archive_4#Native_American_land_treaties) on the talk page at the Wikipedia article on Washington, noting that glaring omission. That is a good way to make hagiography out of somebody’s life: omit the crimes, particularly the historic ones. You can see that nothing remotely fair about that aspect of Washington’s life and career has made it into his Wikipedia biography (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Washington#Foreign_and_Indian_affairs). It would be like writing about Hitler without mentioning his genocidal Lebensraum plans for Eastern Europe. And that is not a strained analogy at all, as what Washington and friends did to the Indians directly inspired Hitler’s plans (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#hitler), which also largely escaped the history books. That is how you make hagiography at Wikipedia. Somebody else, just this month, is taking a crack at correcting the record (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:George_Washington#Header_Section:_George_Washington_Summary_is_Very_Eurocentric). Good luck with that.

So, to last night’s post (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/105-My-Edward-Herman-biography-project/page3?p=1383&viewfull=1#post1383) about how the “f**king mess” of my work had to be cleaned up at Brian’s bio, that admin made the call on Brian’s scientific career, deciding that Brian’s pioneering efforts on occultations (http://science.sciencemag.org/content/175/4026/1108), which took place in the most prestigious scientific publication in the USA, was not “notable” enough in that admin’s estimation, and was summarily erased. Brian’s papers published in Science comprised a big reason why he was chosen to be an astronaut. But that admin made his call and erased that part of Brian’s career, as unnecessary “hagiography” on my part. That rude admin might even be able to defend himself with, “I only take out the hagiography and leave in the notable facts.” That somebody like that makes editorial decisions and gets to play judge, jury, and executioner says a lot about Wikipedia.

To turn to lies of omission, I have stated more than once that Noam’s predictions of the propaganda model (http://ahealedplanet.net/edprop.htm#Predictions_of_the_propaganda_model), which I never saw at Wikipedia and that censorious admin erased, make Ed’s bio today completely understandable, as the article (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_S._Herman) is dominated by attacks on Ed’s and Noam’s writings on “nefarious (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Counter-Revolutionary_Violence:_Bloodbaths_in_Fact_%26_Propaganda#Contents)” bloodbaths, which the propaganda model predicts (http://ahealedplanet.net/edprop.htm#Third-order_predictions). A couple of Jews are thereby portrayed as “genocide deniers,” and outright libel is allowed at Ed’s bio, such as the insane claim that Ed tried to deny that the Srebrenica Massacre ever happened (http://ahealedplanet.net/edbio.htm#The_Srebrenica_Massacre_and_the_media). So, “hagiography” is erased, libel gets to stand, Ed and Noam are falsely portrayed as Khmer Rouge supporters and genocide deniers (http://ahealedplanet.net/edpehr.htm#Campaign_to_portray_Chomsky_as_a_Khmer_Rouge_supporter_and_genocide_denier), and the sidekick of death camp Nazis gets hagiographic treatment. When that rude admin is not using locker room talk, he might even be able to defend his actions with, “I only censor what I deem fit for it, and I don’t add material.” So, he takes no stand on the content of a German scientist’s hagiography, while he eagerly erased my “hagiography.”

Of course, the connections and irony of this situation are not lost on me, in a number of ways. Like Haber (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heinz_Haber), Brian was kind of Werner von Braun’s sidekick, as von Braun was responsible for Brian’s being picked as an astronau (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianbio.htm#mars)t, as von Braun was still chasing his Mars dreams, and Brian was the first talent in the stable for it. But NASA lost the budget battle with the Pentagon, which was busy committing genocide in Indochina (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#early), which was the beginning of Ed’s and Noam’s political writing careers. While Haber flacked for nuclear power (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#strughold), hosted a Disney show titled, Our Friend the Atom, and later wrote a children’s book of the same name, Brian pursued free energy (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#new). Haber gets the hagiography, while Brian’s free energy efforts are erased, and I am sure that, among a stream of four-letter words, that censorious admin can defend it. Of course, he won’t. How can he? It is like benign bloodbaths; much better that they pass in silence.

I’ll get over this before long, but it is an amazing set of circumstances, which my “friends (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#voice3)” once again probably have a hand in.

Best,

Wade

Hi:

Well, not only did my work at Wikipedia disappear, so did that forum that I was kind of run out of (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/94-My-last-posts-in-another-forum?p=639&viewfull=1#post639). That forum seemed to die some time ago, and it looks like it is done. Forums come and go. That is now two forums that I saw started by Avalonians that have died. The other one was Nexus. Bill and team get kudos that Avalon still exists.

Brian’s site (http://www.brianoleary.info/) was down yesterday (I have offered to host it in the past), but it is back up this morning. I’ll have to start thinking about making my site easily portable if I meet my demise. To see a forum that I made hundreds of posts to disappear is a little depressing. The good news is that most of the posts were copied at my forum (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/). Sites and forums are rather ephemeral. I expect mine to live as long as I do, and after that, we’ll see, but if all goes well, I’ll live to see the beginning of the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5), and it will be mission accomplished. I am still in the “making my material as good as I can” phase of my little project. The biggest event in the human journey won’t come overnight.

Best,

Hi:

Ed and I had a friendly correspondence over nearly 20 years, apparently so friendly that I am disqualified from ever editing articles related to him at Wikipedia. I began to try introducing Ed to Brian between around 2001, when I began collaborating with Brian, and 2004, when my NEM experience (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#nem) ended. Ed was never interested. All that I received was polite silence, and in 2003 and 2004, during our NEM effort, the Richard Heinberg experience was very educational for me, in a number of ways.

It began in early 2003, when I read some of Uncle Bucky’s work (http://ahealedplanet.net/roots.htm#fuller), after one of his pupils called me a “comprehensivist” and I did not know what he meant. The comprehensive lightbulb finally went on for me, which I had been unwittingly groping toward for many years, arguably since I could walk (http://ahealedplanet.net/paths.htm#bookworm). Mere weeks after finishing with my introduction to Bucky’s work, I read this article (http://dissidentvoice.org/Articles2/Heinberg_US-Eurasia.htm) by Heinberg, on the eve of Iraq’s invasion. Iraq’s invasion may have been the most emotionally agonizing time of my life, and that is saying something. I had witnessed the USA’s turning into Nazi Germany, with aggressive wars that may be far from over (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#clark). If humanity survives, the USA’s invasion of Iraq (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#invading) may be seen as the first salvos of World War III, and Bush and Blair will be seen as the 21st century equivalent of Hitler and Mussolini, and here we are again, attacking Russia (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#russia), like Napoleon and Hitler did. If it turns into a shooting war, those elite plans to make a survival enclave on Mars (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#mars) might be timely.

Heinberg’s article (http://dissidentvoice.org/Articles2/Heinberg_US-Eurasia.htm) was the first time that I read Peak Oiler (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#peakoil) work. I vaguely knew that the oil would run out one day, but I was not familiar with Peak Oiler work. Heinberg published his first Peak Oiler book a few weeks later. I got familiar, fast, and read books that Heinberg relied on (Catton (http://ahealedplanet.net/scarcity.htm#catton), Tainter (http://ahealedplanet.net/hooked.htm#tainter), Deffeyes (http://ahealedplanet.net/scarcity.htm#_edn4)) before I contacted him in May 2003, through an activist that we had in common.

Heinberg’s work was quite interdisciplinary, which appealed to my budding comprehensive awareness, and we had several convergences in our work. One was that Heinberg was Velikovsky’s assistant, and I had been on the fringes of that controversy (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#velikovsky) for several years by that time. Velikovsky was decidedly multi-disciplinary in his approach, although I doubt that much, if any, of his catastrophic work is valid. He got points for advocating catastrophism when uniformitarianism was a dogma (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#lyell), but I don’t see that his work merits much beyond that. Velikovsky was famously attacked by Brian’s erstwhile buddy Carl Sagan (http://ahealedplanet.net/dennis.htm#velikovsky), debunker extraordinaire, and Sagan’s dishonest attack arguably kept the Velikovsky controversy alive far longer than it should have.

Another convergence was that Heinberg wrote about free energy as a possible solution. He wrote about some of the exact situations, even down to the people, such as Sparky Sweet (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#sparky), that I had been involved with. Heinberg wrote about them in a semi-ridiculing way (http://ahealedplanet.net/hooked.htm#heinberg), but I always give people the benefit of the doubt, until they demonstrate to me that there is no doubt to give them the benefit of. I even did it with Mr. Skeptic (http://ahealedplanet.net/dennis.htm#friends). I contacted Heinberg in a very friendly and welcoming way, eager to give him some inside perspective on the very situations that he wrote about, and was more than happy to introduce him to Brian, which was about the same time that Brian invited me to help him establish NEM.

Heinberg was not interested. Not only was he not interested, he explicitly stated that until we could agree that humanity is quickly running out of energy and is using too much of it, that there was no point in discussing the issues any further. He was begging the question, as free energy would make his arguments pointless. I walked away from Heinberg, stunned by his response. What made Heinberg’s response doubly bizarre was the he was onboard with the idea that 9/11 was an inside job (http://ahealedplanet.net/hooked.htm#ruppert) (which was very “unlefty”), but he could not seem to comprehend organized suppression (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#levels1), which would have orders of magnitude more motivation for elite involvement than 9/11 would have had. Heinberg was a prototypical Level 3 (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level3).

During the next year, our little NEM effort tried to get Brian visibility, using him as a kind of battering ram to open doors. But an interview on Jeff Rense’s program was about all that happened. Brian tried and tried to get into “progressive” venues, and found no takers. Not only was nobody interested, Heinberg was being feted like a conquering hero across the entire Left/environmentalist (http://ahealedplanet.net/purpose.htm#environmentalists) spectrum. As I bought groceries at my local progressive store (https://www.pccmarkets.com/) in May 2014 (when Mallove was murdered (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#portland)), a cover story featuring Heinberg (http://www.earthisland.org/journal/index.php/elist/eListRead/the_anthropocene_its_not_all_about_us) greeted me as I walked through the door. The same month, there was an interview with Heinberg (http://ahealedplanet.net/hooked.htm#_edn8) in Z Magazine (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#zmag), which I had subscribed to for more than a decade by that time, and it was Ed’s primary publishing conduit by then. While Brian’s message was one of healing and abundance, Heinberg beat the drums of doom (http://ahealedplanet.net/hooked.htm#austerity). Brian was completely shut out from all “progressive” venues while Heinberg got the red carpet treatment at those very same venues. It was kind of mind-bending to me at the time, but Bucky’s work (http://ahealedplanet.net/roots.htm#scarcity2) helped me understand what I was seeing: people were addicted to scarcity (http://ahealedplanet.net/hooked.htm#misinformation). Perhaps stated more precisely, people were addicted to their survival mechanisms in a world of scarcity and fear (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#coming), including their adoptive ideologies, and were not about to let go.

Many years of derision and denial (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#awaken), from all quarters, became clear to me in those days. I wanted to walk away from NEM in May 2014, even before Mallove was murdered, as I could tell that our efforts were doomed (from the inside, as our motley crew did not have what it took to make a dent, with inexperience and naïveté a leading reason, but they also did not understand the integrity issue (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#burn)), but Brian begged me to stay, and I poured $15K into NEM over the next several months and quit right after our conference in September 2004. My money, given as a gift when I did not want to be there, was completely wasted. The years 2003 and 2004 were very dismaying to me, I was in the darkest phase of my midlife crisis (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#midlife), and I went quiet for years, while working 60-hour weeks at my day job after I resumed my career, after those several years of study and writing that became my site as it largely stands today.

I was not finished writing about Ed and the Left yet, and am still kind of involved, writing Ed’s first biography, no matter how it has gone with Wikipedia (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/105-My-Edward-Herman-biography-project/page3?p=1366&viewfull=1#post1366).

Reading Energy and Equity (https://clevercycles.com/energy_and_equity/index.html) by Ivan Illich (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ivan_Illich) did not finish yet, it is an interesting comment on industrial societies, especially the inequality of speed.

Hi Krishna (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1238226&viewfull=1#post1238226):

Ah yes, Wikipedia, the necessary evil these days. :) Your advice makes sense if you can see the edits. :) Virtually everything that I did there was erased (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/105-My-Edward-Herman-biography-project/page3?p=1368&viewfull=1#post1368), on the flimsiest of pretexts. The extreme reaction to my work that you just witnessed has been a typical reception for many years. You would think that I was the world’s greatest plagiarist and copyright violator, given what happened. It was the Internet equivalent of Dennis’s spending two years behind bars (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#bargain), and nearly dying there (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#mistakes), for failing to file a form. My work means the end of the world as we know it, and at some level, people understand that, and hence the violent reactions, although they can rarely admit it to themselves. I try to not take it personally.

I’ll have a little more to say about Wikipedia, but not a whole lot. Like so many things, its performance falls far short of its promise, and it is nearly a parody of an encyclopedia today. I refer to it too, but warily. When the story of life on Earth (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#midpoint) gets to the human parts, especially current events, Wikipedia can become worse than worthless, with all of the ax-grinders doing their thing, and Wikipedia may well have been captured by the intelligence community, with its neo-con co-founder.

On Illich (https://clevercycles.com/energy_and_equity/index.html), maybe you can write something on what Illich is missing about the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5) (a little homework :) ). It lies outside of his view of the possible. Without clean and abundant energy, a world of abundance (http://ahealedplanet.net/abund.htm#abundance) cannot come to pass. I have rarely seen a pundit or philosopher who could really understand abundance, as they fall off the rails into thinking in terms of exuberant (http://ahealedplanet.net/abund.htm#exuberance), sustainable (http://ahealedplanet.net/abund.htm#sustainable), and the like. Until people can release their epochal conditioning, they really can’t begin to imagine it, which is why I always say that a person has to be awakened (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=309&viewfull=1#post309) already, or they won’t begin to understand. The GCs (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc) know exactly what I am writing about, which is why they keep the lid so tightly on it (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#levels1), as they keep humanity oblivious of its potential, keeping people at the level of survival and temporarily sating their addictions. It is not easy to enslave the awake, not in the Fourth Epoch.

The arrival of decentralized, clean, abundant energy will be the biggest event in the human journey, and will wipe away nearly all of the social structures that Illich theorized about, such as nations (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#nations), exchange institutions (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#exchange), etc. Illich focused on transportation, but that is a tiny aspect of the issue. That conversation that I imagine the choir (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir) one day singing has never been heard before, and truly, only a relative few are going to be able to hear it, but they will be enough.

Best,

Hi:

I’ll be winding down the Wikipedia posts, at least until I write that essay about Ed and the Left.

I once read somebody state that the only fair way to evaluate any political-economic system is by the people it produced. There is truth to that, but it goes further than that. That system’s effect on the world deserves to be weighed on that scale, whether it is environmental destruction or its imperial behavior (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#connection). Any system has to be evaluated based on its final product, which includes the impact of how it was produced. Elite clothing produced by slaves or virtual slaves must be held accountable for the total effect of the enterprise. King Tut’s sumptuous grave mask (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#egyptold) was purchased with the lives of thousands of slaves. Similar activities take place today (http://ahealedplanet.net/intro.htm#progress).

When Krishna joined the fray (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1236906&viewfull=1#post1236906) on the attacks and erasure of my work at Wikipedia, he wrote about the spirit of the law versus its letter, which is a noble sentiment and germane to what happened. Wikipedia claims to be focused on the process, which ensures quality content, but at some point, one needs to step back and consider the end result, and the process is anything but evenhanded. The Wikipedia project has to be held accountable for its final product, although it can say that it is always a work in process. The events of my brief encounters at Wikipedia include:

I have written at length (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#blueprint) about George Washington’s greatest achievement – writing the blueprint for stealing a continent, in history’s greatest swindle – and how that little fact is absent from his biographies, and somebody mentioned that omission at Wikipedia more than a decade ago (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:George_Washington/Archive_4#Native_American_land_treaties), yet the hagiography stands to this day. Just this month, others have been trying to correct the record at Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:George_Washington#Header_Section:_George_Washington_Summary_is_Very_Eurocentric), but they don’t have a prayer, IMO. Washington’s activities helped inspire Hitler (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#hitler), which is another little fact that is going to escape the hagiographic treatment at Wikipedia.
A decade ago, I made additions to a massacre list (http://ahealedplanet.net/wikimass.htm) that was extremely biased in favor of Europeans and Americans. Within days, all of my additions, which were the first scholarly additions to that list, were removed, by the editors as well as by the admins. In the logic of the editors and admins, the murder of two white invaders by the invaded was more “notable” than 40,000 natives slaughtered (http://ahealedplanet.net/wikimass.htm#aztec2) by the first great conquest by Spain in the Western Hemisphere. That magnitude of disparity in treatment ranks with the “genocide” bias that Ed noted in the Western media (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#ratio).
That same year, I noted the omission of any allegations of crimes against humanity in a German scientist’s biography (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/105-My-Edward-Herman-biography-project/page3?p=1368&viewfull=1#post1368), while his son managed his father’s bio, which stands as hagiography today. In recent weeks, I dug back into this issue and plan to write an essay on Operation Paperclip, the German scientists, and war crimes. That scientist might well have not committed any war crimes himself, but the issue is very clouded, thanks to American and German whitewashing. Wikipedia’s renditions of the situations are a farce. The USA very actively covered for war criminals, whitewashing their backgrounds and protecting them from prosecution, because they were useful to the USA’s Cold War efforts. There is not a hint of that at the Paperclip article at Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Paperclip), as the whitewash got a whitewash. In the USA, that German scientist was the sidekick of two war criminals. People can make the argument that Wernher von Braun wasn’t a war criminal, and that would be quite a debate to have, which I have been involved with before (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#nazi), but his rocketry efforts in World War II were directly responsible for the deaths of more than 20,000 concentration camp inmates. However, for his other colleague, his mentor, Hubertus Strughold (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#haber1), there is no doubt that Strughold was involved in death camp human experiments. And like the whitewashing Paperclip article, one of Strughold’s close colleagues was undoubtedly involved in human experiments at Dachau, which killed many prisoners, he has a whitewash article (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siegfried_Ruff), too, and Strughold actively covered up his friend’s medical experiments, in the same book where his sidekick’s first paper appeared.
This month, I finished an effort (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm), which took more than a year of my “spare” time, to create Ed Herman’s biography at Wikipedia, to only see it summarily erased by a rude admin within hours. While death camp Nazis and the “Father of our Country” get whitewashes, Ed’s bio at Wikipedia today (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_S._Herman) stands as an exercise in disinformation, calling him a “genocide denier (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#predictions),” among other fictions, which is quite a charge to make against a Jew (https://www.counterpunch.org/1998/06/15/an-appeal-from-american-jews-to-the-green-party-of-germany/). The most active editor of Ed’s bio is a notorious “person” who is likely a team of people, whose editorial slant is so severe (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Edward_S._Herman#Philip_Cross%E2%80%99s_edits) as to be libelous, and that team may well work for the intelligence community. That “editor” has been openly defended by Wikipedia’s co-founder (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/105-My-Edward-Herman-biography-project/page3?p=1370&viewfull=1#post1370).

Those situations highlight the political nature of Wikipedia’s articles. The bias is so extreme that Wikipedia itself resembles a disinformation effort, which unfortunately conforms to Ed and Noam’s propaganda model (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#manufacturing), even though Wikipedia is non-profit.

To add icing to the cake, that editor erased most of my contributions to Brian O’s Wikipedia biography (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brian_O%27Leary), while calling my edits a “f**king mess (https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Brian_O%27Leary&action=history),” and that admin erased all references to Brian’s free energy work, which consumed the last 20 years of his life. Ironically, today is the seventh anniversary of Brian’s death (not the July 28th death at his NASA bio (https://www.jsc.nasa.gov/Bios/htmlbios/oleary-bt.html), which has become his “official” data of death). The erasures of my work, which even Wikipedia admits is an extreme measure, were performed on the flimsiest of pretexts. The accusations were that I had a conflict of interest with Ed and Brian, that I made copyright violations, and that I had plagiarized myself. The copyright “violations” were virtually all for quotes that I also put at Ed’s Wikiquote page (https://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Edward_S._Herman) (that page is entirely my work today), and I don’t understand the logic of quotations being at one part of the Wiki-family is fine, but putting them in a Wikipedia bio is a copyright violation. I have long given away the rights to my writings, doing it on my home page (http://ahealedplanet.net/home.htm), so I was guilty of plagiarizing my public-domain self, which is the strangest case of “plagiarism” that I have heard of (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/105-My-Edward-Herman-biography-project/page3?p=1377&viewfull=1#post1377). My so-called conflicts of interest, particularly with Ed, were orders of magnitude smaller than those of that German scientist’s son, who manages his father’s bio like a hawk (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Heinz_Haber#Untitled), turning that bio into outright hagiography, and that conflict of interest passes in silence.

So, in summary, death camp Nazis get softball treatment, as does the “Father of our Country,” while one of the greatest scholars of conscience in American history (and arguably world history) has a libelous bio. I don’t care what the so-called rules of Wikipedia are. I have borne the brunt of the selective enforcement of them, which are so great as to result in many Wikipedia articles being exercises in disinformation. In the end, the final result is what matters, so, at this time, Wikipedia is a miserable failure on key issues. I will likely still refer to Wikipedia in my big essay, but with an even stronger caveat (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#wikipedia), and I may no longer suggest donating to them, which I have done in the past.

Best,

Wade

I find Wikipedia useful for non-controversial matters, such as reminding myself what is the Pythagorean Theorem (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pythagorean_theorem).

But for any topic of more substance, it's time to skip past the first few pages of a Google search, and see what I can find, and where that might lead.

Thanks Paul:

Yes, for the Internet, that works far better. The Internet is still a pretty poor information resource in ways. As I look across my office at the shelves of the scientific and historical books that I used for my big essay, so much is not on the Internet, and that is for subjects that are not very susceptible to elite manipulation, such as dinosaur issues. The Internet rarely goes deep on any of the subjects, not like those books do. The Internet’s potential is barely tapped, and resources such as Wikipedia are a huge disappointment so far. Uncle Noam and Ed warned 20 years ago about what could happen to the Internet, and to a degree, it already has.

Hi:

After the NEM disaster, I went quiet for years. Brian immediately moved to South America after our conference (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#last), and spent the rest of his life there. Mallove’s murder before the conference (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#portland) and John Mack’s death (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_E._Mack#Death) the day after the conference ended convinced Brian to get out of Dodge, and fast. He did not want to become another cautionary tale (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#deadinventors), although he already was (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#attack).

I was replaced on the NEM board by a famous free energy name who soon led what Brian called a “rebellion” that booted him out of NEM. That was no surprise for me, with what I had been through (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#shocked), and it was not the first time that it had happened to Brian.

I was in the darkest phase of my midlife crisis in those years, and I wrote what some consider my most inspiring essay (http://ahealedplanet.net/abund.htm), in early 2006, and I wrote it as a kind of therapy for myself, to make it clear what I was pursuing. In those days, it was like walking around with a big, emotional spike in my chest. After years of pestering me about it, Krishna finally convinced me to contact the father of the Free Software Movement, Richard Stallman (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/73-Darren-Geffert-s-introductory-posts?p=130&viewfull=1#post130). Krishna thought that free software and free energy activists would make natural allies, and it seemed to make sense to me, and I contacted Stallman in the summer of 2006. We had a cordial but ultimately frustrating correspondence over about a month. Like Heinberg (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/122-Ed-Herman-the-Left-and-My-Life-s-Work?p=1386&viewfull=1#post1386), Stallman was another entrenched Level 3 (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level3). Stallman was another one of those 160+ IQ people that I have interacted with. I have found that the “smart” can be the most stuck in their conditioning, amazingly. The big trap for the “smart,” at least in the West, is what I have called the “rationalist-materialist paradigm,” and materialism (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#dominant) is usually a wide-enough net to catch them, and their barriers to comprehension include these features:

A denial of the abilities and attributes of consciousness, other than rational thinking;
The thought that the corpus of mainstream scientific thought and its findings, often called “the laws of physics,” the “laws of nature,” and the like, had revealed all the secrets of the universe or were close to that goal (the standard “skeptical (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#skeptic)” stance), and that the tools of mainstream science were the only worthy ones;
A denial that elites and other interests would or could manipulate the world economy and key global events from behind the scenes, usually dismissing all such activities as being an untenable “conspiracy theory”, as they irrationally confused evidence with theories. Our experiences were no theory.

Also, their keen “intelligence” usually made their ideas impervious to argument. Stallman was far from the first or last like him that I encountered, but he was kind of a quintessential example of it. During the same month that I interacted with Stallman, I wrote an open letter to the Free Software Movement (http://ahealedplanet.net/freesoft.htm). Other than Krishna, I doubt that I have heard from anybody else in that milieu. Krishna even worked on Stallman, but came away frustrated, and Krishna noted that Stallman did not understand rather mundane issues such as the demographic transition (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#demographic), and did not seem interested in understanding.

During that summer of 2006, I quietly wrestled with my midlife crisis (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#midlife), and its theme was that my life’s work was an exercise in futility. Humanity was going to flush itself straight down the toilet (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#infinite), taking most of Earth’s ecosystems with it (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#spaceshipearth), and all that I could do was stand by and watch, and even get dragged along for the ride, although I might get “lucky” and die before it really hit the fan (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#wwIII).

My midlife crisis began in 2000, and did not begin to end until the end of August 2006, when Dennis arrived at my home, unannounced, to invite me to Washington D.C. for an eve of the election demonstration of the technologies that he was currently working on. The demonstration was being arranged by the sitting president’s energy advisor. The last place on Earth where I wanted to be was at the White House, having tea with Bush and Cheney. Brian talked in front of the White House (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BzhUm1C5SZ0) less than two weeks after Dennis invited me to the White House, in another of the innumerable bizarre synchronicities of my life. I turned Dennis down instantly, along with his offer to be on the board of his new venture. With Mr. Professor’s death (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#journey), which sent me into the dark phase of my midlife crisis, I was the only person outside of his family that Dennis deeply trusted, but I wanted no part of another radical business venture, no matter how noble.

For me, the rich irony of what Dennis was involved with in those days was that he had developed high-MPG carburetor technology. It was like I had come full circle from my teenage dreams of more than 30 years previously, with Mr. Mentor’s engine (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#glimpse). With what Dennis, I, and other free energy revolutionaries knew existed (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#underground), squeezing more energy from a gallon of gasoline was child’s play, but was also a way for Dennis to get a leg up, like his heat pump (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#new) was, but the capitalist game is rigged to the extreme. What we encountered was capitalism on steroids (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#steroids).

A few years later, when Dennis was finally forbidden to be involved in the energy industry in the USA (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=694872&viewfull=1#post694872), and I read the FTC’s clever lies as they went after Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/paths.htm#ftc), soon after David Rockefeller called Dennis at home (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page13?p=888&viewfull=1#post888), I thanked my lucky stars that I did not get involved with Dennis again, as the Feds would have shown up at my house. Several years after those events, I met with Dennis’s assistant, who kind of replaced me as Dennis’s sidekick, and he said that he nearly soiled himself when the Feds arrived at his house and served him their papers. It was familiar territory for me (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page4?p=660&viewfull=1#post660), which I never want to see again.

When Dennis left, it sent me into new throes of agony, and my psychologist wife began insisting that I seek professional help, as she did many years previously (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#therapy), and I once again got trauma therapy. By late 2006, the clouds finally began to part, and my life’s longest stretch of emotional agony ended (which was actually rivaled by my life’s previous several years, as I write this, which I may never be able to publicly discuss). By early 2007, I began the study that resulted in my big essay. If you had asked me exactly what the result of my upcoming years of study would produce, I would not have replied with writing my big essay (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm). That big essay was beyond my wildest dreams, even in 2007.

In June 2007, I wrote an open letter to the radical left (http://ahealedplanet.net/radleft.htm), which to this day is the closest thing that I could find to kindred spirits (Ed (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm), Noam (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#chomsky), and Howard (http://ahealedplanet.net/zinn.htm) were their patron saints), but they are generally ideologically opposed (http://ahealedplanet.net/radleft.htm#religion) to the idea of organized suppression (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#levels1), and what my friend saw (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#underground) blows mainstream physics out of the water, which lefties cannot wrap their minds around.

After having no contact with the public since 2002, I began to join forums where I had seen my work discussed, and I quickly discovered that the Internet had become a Troll Festival (http://ahealedplanet.net/critics.htm#troll) during my years of seclusion. I was attacked wherever I appeared, and Mr. Skeptic usually arrived, even the day after I appeared (http://portland.indymedia.org/en/2007/02/353778.shtml#251272), heaving his disinformation bombs (http://ahealedplanet.net/purpose.htm#warning). After Dennis was finally run out of the USA, Mr. Skeptic quietly folded his tents and disappeared, as his 15-year crusade was finished. I am more than half-convinced that he was on somebody’s payroll (http://ahealedplanet.net/other.htm#skeptic) during his vendetta, as Bill the BPA Hit Man (http://ahealedplanet.net/hitman.htm) was, as many professionals (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/81-Vignettes-from-my-journey-and-how-I-learned-what-I-did-and-came-to-my-approach?p=206&viewfull=1#post206) and psychopaths (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#deputy) were sicced on us (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#pinch) over the years. Working for the forces of darkness pays well, for a time (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#hell). I finally got the message when I joined a forum that was full of trolls, and as they ganged up on me, I was expelled from the forum (http://ahealedplanet.net/critics.htm#troll2). After that experience, I decided that the only forum that I would join in the future would be mine, which would be a troll-free zone.

In the summer of 2007, I wrote an essay (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm) that was inspired by some activists who contacted me, and that essay brought Brian back into my life (although it blew those activists out of the water), who said that that essay was the best thing that he had read in a long time. We began collaborating again, Brian told me his tale of being run out of NEM by the other board members, and through his contacts, early the next year I did my first public interview (http://ahealedplanet.net/radio.htm), followed the next year by what will always be my favorite, when Bill Ryan and Kerry Cassidy interviewed me and Brian (http://ahealedplanet.net/camelot.htm) for their Project Camelot. I won’t have another interview with Brian. There is a lot more to come on these issues, but I now begin what will be a crazily busy next few weeks at my day job, so my posts will slow down.

Best,

Wade

Hi:

At the same time that Dennis was being run out of the USA (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=694872&viewfull=1#post694872), Brian wanted to approach the DOE and test Obama’s “visionary” energy policy, in which he allegedly encouraged radical energy innovation. Brian’s site might not be long for the world, as it keeps going down. Here is the DOE proposal on his site (http://www.brianoleary.info/Impacts.html), and here it is on mine (http://ahealedplanet.net/briandoe.htm). I was evicted from my home at about the same time that Brian asked me to help him. Of course, I did, but writing my parts of the proposal (big picture, further obstacles) was memorable, as I wrote it while boxing up my library for the move. While I wrote it, I wondered what Brian thought that we would accomplish. In his last book, which I helped edit, he admitted his co-dependency with Washington, D.C. (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#early) You can hear Brian talking, here (http://ahealedplanet.net/brian%20doe%20talk.flv), about how our proposal was received. I had spoken at DOE hearings before (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#yull), with Dennis, and while educational, it was an exercise in futility. Dennis and Brian kept banging on the Establishment’s door, kept banging on any doors that they could, while trying to mount a mass movement. I carried the spears in five mass movement efforts before deciding that they did not have a prayer (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level10). There are not enough people with the right stuff (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=308&viewfull=1#post308) for that approach to work. Those are just the numbers, and no judgment is implied (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#judge1), but I am constantly approached by naïve newcomers, who have never gone out and done anything of significance, who think that they have the magic answer to harness sociality (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/96-Human-sociality-and-free-energy?p=925&viewfull=1#post925), and that they will succeed while the best of the best never had a chance. What suicidal folly.

Greer has done the same thing (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/97-Steven-Greer-s-Latest-UFO-ET-Disclosure-Effort?p=938&viewfull=1#post938). They try to get either the elite or the masses involved. Neither group is going to help, as their self-interest marks the true north of their awareness. Self-serving people (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#serving) are not going to help this along at all, and because personal integrity is the world’s scarcest commodity (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page6?p=708&viewfull=1#post708), the people who can help are going to be very few and far between (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialcircle). I am seeking a middle ground that has never been sought before for this epochal task, and I am intimately familiar with what does not work (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#approaches). There are no short-cuts or easy answers, not for the biggest event in the human journey (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5), but that does not prevent newcomers from constantly trying, and the standard beginner’s activity is to rush out and proselytize to their social circles, telling them the “good news,” to only get rudely awakened: their social circles don’t want to hear about it. I constantly hear tales of ostracism from those newcomers. The best of them finally get it out of their systems and become willing to learn and put their bright ideas in the dustbin.

There is plenty more to come, but it took nearly 40 years, from my teenage dreams (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#glimpse), to my real world early awakenings in my profession (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#believing), through the war years with Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#hitting), through years of study (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page7?p=739&viewfull=1#post739), to getting back in the game for a little while (1 (http://ahealedplanet.net/other.htm#sting), 2 (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#nem)), to more study (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/122-Ed-Herman-the-Left-and-My-Life-s-Work?p=1390&viewfull=1#post1390), to finally arrive at my current approach. If you told me what lied ahead, when I had my teenage dreams, I would not have believed any of it.

Best,

Wade

For me, the rich irony of what Dennis was involved with in those days was that he had developed high-MPG carburetor technology.
Apparently, from some "conspiracy theory research" that I was listening to the other day (it might have been Jim Willie of the GoldenJackass.com),

the destruction of 2,750 Volkswagens in the Chinese city of Tianjin, in August of 2015 (http://www.autonews.com/article/20150813/GLOBAL03/150819936/thousands-of-vehicles-burned-in-fatal-blast-at-china-port), and
the Volkswagen Diesel emissions scandal that erupted in late 2015 (https://www.caranddriver.com/news/everything-you-need-to-know-about-the-vw-diesel-emissions-scandal)

were both deliberately caused by American petro interests, in order to shut down a Volkswagen project to deliver a high-MPG (over 200 miles-per-gallon) car which was close to coming to market.

Ah - yes - it was in this 30 July 2018 Rogue Money Radio (RMR) interview of Jim Willie, starting at 54:43 (https://youtu.be/jDrXNCyjsFQ?t=54m43s).

Thanks Paul (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1238891&viewfull=1#post1238891):

Nothing would surprise me in that realm. I am not sure if I ever made a comprehensive post on me and high-MPG technology. From Mr. Mentor’s engine (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#glimpse) to his own attempt to make a high-MPG carburetor (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/94-My-last-posts-in-another-forum?p=640&viewfull=1#post640) to my Justice Department (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#carb) pal to Mr. Inventor (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#inventor) to Dennis’s bodyguard (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page3?p=623&viewfull=1#post623), to Dennis’s final attempt (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/94-My-last-posts-in-another-forum?p=640&viewfull=1#post640), I have been privy to a great deal of that kind of information, including a lot that I have never publicly disclosed. Most of what I have to report is at most second-hand. For all of the above situations, I heard about it directly from the participants. David Rockefeller got involved (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page13?p=888&viewfull=1#post888), of course, and so on.

That Volkswagen and China story is certainly interesting, but I don’t know much about it. Europe makes cars that get more than 50 MPG, but they are outlawed in the USA, similar to the flimsy excuses that I heard in that interview (or the flimsy excuses for erasing my writings at Wikipedia (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/105-My-Edward-Herman-biography-project/page4?p=1389&viewfull=1#post1389)). But it is all an urban legend. :) You won’t find much on Wikipedia! :)

I have a 2003 TDI (Turbo Diesel Injection) Volkswagon that gets 40 miles per gallon. We keep fixing it because it runs forever on one tank of gas.

I do read many of your posts, Wade.

Hi Valerie (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1239073&viewfull=1#post1239073):

I see your thanks on posts. I hope that the reading is worth it. Some pals do the thanks so that I know they are reading. There is some German synchronicity this morning. My wife is not happy about it, but I have been reading more about the Nazis that the USA brought in under Operation Paperclip, and it is grim reading, as usual. My summer of studying World War II (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#good), back in 1999, damaged me and my marriage. Not only did the USA’s Founding Fathers inspire Hitler’s genocidal plans for Eastern Europe (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#hitler), but Hitler’s anti-Semitic policies were inspired by one of the USA’s greatest industrialists, Henry Ford (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#ford). Hitler once said that Ford taught him all that he knew, and the Third Reich even gave Ford a medal. About a third of the Third Reich’s trucks during World War II were produced by Ford, which I heard was demoralizing for American soldiers when they captured German equipment. The Volkswagen (literally “The People’s Car”) was Hitler’s answer to the Model T (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ford_Model_T), so it is ironic to hear these rumors that Volkswagen (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1238891&viewfull=1#post1238891) was going to produce a 200 MPG car, to get shot down.

The thing about Paperclip was not just how disgusting it was, bringing in death camp Nazis to help with the Cold War: the Nazis were partly responsible for the Cold War. The Gehlen Org (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#gehlen) lied to the USA about Soviet intentions and capabilities, telling their handlers what they wanted to hear, and helped lead the world to the brink of World War III. As Uncle Ed wrote (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#containment), the USA’s “containment” policy was fraudulent. The Soviet Union was just a handy excuse for American imperialism. When the Soviet Union collapsed, American imperialists had a problem on their hands: finding a new boogieman. As Ed and Noam noted, the “war on terror (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#terror1)” provided a useful substitute for the Soviet Union, although with few actual “terrorists” in the world really doing much, Russia has been “rehabilitated” into a malevolent threat once again, as it has been demonized in the Western media for more than a century (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#russia).

The Rockefellers (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#rockefeller1) were also deeply in bed with the Nazis from the beginning (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#farben), and their creatures the Dulles brothers (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#dulles) were not only architects of the Cold War, but liberally used Nazis. And it was not just some kind of embarrassment for the USA: to a significant degree, Nazi policies became American policies. Those Nazis who performed human experiments on death camp prisoners did not just bring their findings and expertise to the USA, but their ethics, too. The Nazi experiments were the direct predecessor of MKUltra and other programs, which were often performed on involuntary subjects. Americans thereby became victims of Nazi human experiments. Thousands of American soldiers were used as guinea pigs that way. Fluoridation (http://ahealedplanet.net/fluoride.htm#compulsory) is compulsory “medicine” forced on the American populace, and before the USA began jamming it down the public’s throat, soon after hiring death camp Nazis, the Nazis literally used it in their concentration camps (http://ahealedplanet.net/fluoride.htm#perkins), to make the prisoners more docile. I have fluoride added to my water today, as do most Americans. Hmmm.

The Nazi connection runs far deeper, too. Goebbels used Edward Bernays’s work (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#bernays) in his propaganda efforts, and Bernays actually helped design the propaganda campaigns to addict women to tobacco (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#bernays), fluoridate water (http://ahealedplanet.net/fluoride.htm#bernays), and overthrow the Guatemalan government (http://ahealedplanet.net/intro.htm#guatemala) on behalf of the Rockefellers. I have several Rockefeller connections myself, and for the first time, I’ll reveal a little about my relative who was a CIA contract agent (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#cia): he worked for Rockefeller interests. I may never reveal any more about that situation (to protect family members), but that revelation should be safe now. The Rockefellers helped take out Dennis more than once, beginning with wiping out the factory that he planned to use in Seattle (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#chase) (so Dennis had to build his own factory), and the final time (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page13?p=888&viewfull=1#post888) was when Dennis was pursuing high-MPG technology.

The first practical application of nuclear energy was gratuitously vaporizing two cities (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#dropping) in a defeated nation that was trying to surrender, and at the same time as the USA was being mass-fluoridated and the witch hunts for “commies” were at their peak, the American government was trying to turn those nuclear swords into ploughshares, even though the initial euphoria had long since worn off in the USA (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#reactions). Hubertus Strughold (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#strughold) was the godfather of MKUltra and other human experiment programs in the USA, and his protégé, Heinz Haber, was also Werner von Braun’s sidekick on a Disney show promoting space travel to children. Walt Disney and the Nazis were spiritual brethren (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#nazi), and Walt was an enthusiastic red-hunter who also endorsed Hollywood’s blacklist. While Walt hunted out commies, death camp Nazis were fine, and when Disney was asked to make a propaganda film about nuclear power, Haber was their man (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#haber), who led the making of a Disney show that promoted nuclear energy, and Haber then wrote a children’s book on the wonders of nuclear energy. The Wikipedia article on Paperclip is a whitewash (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/105-My-Edward-Herman-biography-project/page4?p=1389&viewfull=1#post1389), which I suppose is fitting, as Paperclip itself was a whitewash of death camp Nazis.

Of course, Allen Dulles very actively covered up JFK’s murder (http://educationforum.ipbhost.com/topic/20494-bill-decker-and-john-tower/?do=findComment&comment=321167) and likely had a hand in it. JFK was trying to end the Cold War, and for that, among other affronts to corporate America, he had to go. Although it is no secret, it has largely disappeared down the Memory Hole that JFK proposed a joint mission to the Moon with the Soviets soon before his murder, which would have ended the Space Race. With JFK’s murder, Johnson not only escalated the Space Race, but he also escalated the low-level Vietnam imperial conflict into an outright genocide (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#early), and I spent a year in Houston (http://ahealedplanet.net/paths.htm#oleary) during all of that, as Mission Control was one of Johnson’s pork barrel projects. I am not writing as a disinterested scholar, but as somebody whose life was profoundly affected by Rockefeller machinations. Of course, it goes far higher than that, too. The highest councils on Earth (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc) wondered what to do about us, and both the “White Hats” and “Black Hats” intervened multiple times (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page3?p=623&viewfull=1#post623).

Time for work.

Best,

Wade

Hi Paul (http://educationforum.ipbhost.com/topic/20494-bill-decker-and-john-tower/?do=findComment&comment=383405):

I am happy to discuss Gary’s little story on the JFK hit. You can take it to the bank that Gary recounted the John Tower conversation (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#tower) to the best of his recollection. Being a policemen and detective, Gary tried to solve the crime, and his encounters with Jack Ruby (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#ruby) are highly germane to the JFK hit. Ruby was no two-bit nightclub owner.

For me, the lesson of the JFK hit is not so much who did it, although I believe that it likely came from the Dulles/CIA milieu, but that the entire “investigation” was a whitewash from the beginning, to frame the “patsy” and make it go away ASAP. Every president since JFK (http://ahealedplanet.net/journey.htm#presidents) was a puppet and knew it, although somewhat ironically, Trump may not have figured it out yet. Like JFK, he came from a rich background, so did not have to sell his soul to play the game. If Trump has not figured it out yet, he may be beginning to suspect.

Every president since JFK was a puppet and knew it, although somewhat ironically, Trump may not have figured it out yet. Like JFK, he came from a rich background, so did not have to sell his soul to play the game.
Perhaps, rather than taking on almost all of the "deep state" as JFK seemed to be doing, Trump is the front man for part of the deep state, as a division has formed, which will make America less "exceptional", and which is imposing an existential crisis on the Rockefeller-Bush-Clinton-Obama-CIA-DOJ-CNN-MSNBC-NYTimes-WashPost-PetroNarcoDollar branch of the deep state.

I expect that the Banksters of Babylon, Merchants of Venice, and Elders of Zion (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?103656-Banksters-of-Babylon-Merchants-of-Venice-and-Elders-of-Zion&p=1239084#post1239084) will do just fine, and that the NSA and US Military are providing key support, "on the ground", and in the air, to Trump in the immediate present. Indeed, I expect that the really deep state orchestrates periodic changes of the guard in the more visible deep state, just to ensure that no one gets too uppity.

I also expect that Trump came into his current job with a pretty good idea of the challenges he would be facing, whereas Kennedy (JFK) had to undertake a greater amount of "on the job training". On the job training in that viper pit known as Washington is not for the faint of heart.

Trump has been thinking about the Presidency for many years now, and if the latest Qanon scuttlebutt (not Q himself, but some of his presenters and researchers, aka bakers and autists) has any basis, may be getting some serious behind the scenes support from the Kennedy's, perhaps even including from the not so dead after all JFK Jr.

Thanks Paul (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1239131&viewfull=1#post1239131):

While I thought of a reply, it came to me to create a table of Epochs (a little different from this one (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochaltable)), and what features of humanity have existed in each, and what will and won’t be in the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5). It will be in my essay update. Something like that had been rolling around in my mind for some time, but your post spurred me to crystallize my thinking, and that table was born. Thanks.

Over the years, I have been presented with the idea that JFK faked his own death, that he survived and lived in an invalid state on a ship that cruised the Atlantic, and other wacky ideas. I have no idea what the Kennedy clan’s role is today, other than grasping at the straws of their lost glory.

Yes, there are layers of players and their machinations, and I made a rough outline of the hierarchy (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/108-The-Global-Controllers?p=1186&viewfull=1#post1186) earlier this year, but the point of my work is that all of it will become obsolete in the Fifth Epoch. No more elites (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#elitedisappear) and their games. It will no longer make sense. The reign of the psychopaths will end. No politician is going to help, no “royal family,” and the like, as they are all beholden to the idea of elite rule. Only when the foundation changes, which has always been and always will be the energy issue, will this Epoch end.

That table will show that races began in the Second Epoch (and continued diversifying in the Third (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#blueeyes)), but will end in the Fifth (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#nations). Cities and elites (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#divinity) began in the Third Epoch, and both will disappear in the Fifth, as will the exchange game (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#exchange), warfare (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#peacekeeping), poverty, and other artifacts of scarcity. Making a dent (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir) in that direction is my life’s work, and we will see how it goes. I hope that I have 30 more good years in me, like Uncle Ed (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm) did, and maybe I’ll live to see us turn the corner.

If that choir can be built, it won’t matter what any of the elites do. It will be Game Over, and they know it. That is why they have had the lid on so tightly (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#make).

Best,

Wade

Hi Robert (http://educationforum.ipbhost.com/topic/20494-bill-decker-and-john-tower/?do=findComment&comment=383620):

I certainly am not singing Trump’s praises, although he has been caught in the crossfire of a favorite American activity: demonizing Russia (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#russia). In fact, if we credit Doug Caddy’s amazing reporting of what E. Howard Hunt said (http://educationforum.ipbhost.com/topic/20494-bill-decker-and-john-tower/?do=findComment&comment=321167), and I do, the last straw for taking out JFK was his getting too cozy with the Soviets, as he tried to end the Cold War. I’ll buy that, but I also think that the “alien presence (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ufo2)” reason was just an excuse, and I suspect that the entire “alien presence” issue was related to JFK’s proposing a joint mission to the Moon with the Soviet Union (http://educationforum.ipbhost.com/topic/20494-bill-decker-and-john-tower/?do=findComment&comment=383612), which would effectively end the Space Race and go a long way toward ending the Cold War. The assassins had to have known that the Soviets knew plenty themselves. I doubt that it matters much who the president is (http://ahealedplanet.net/journey.htm#presidents), but as we both note, Trump is not as much of a creature of special interests as every president since JFK was.

On Carter, that is a near and dear subject. Brian O’Leary was Mo Udall’s speechwriter (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#udall), and Udall was in the lead for the nomination until Carter came out of nowhere, with his Rockefeller (CFR) backing, and it looks like Carter stole Brian’s energy policy. The energy crisis is what got me and most of my fellow travelers pursuing the energy issue (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#journeys), which eventually led us to free energy. Free energy technology is likely older than I am (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#underground). You can take that to the bank.

David Rockefeller handpicked all presidents since JFK. Carter’s energy policy is what allowed Dennis to take his run (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#sfs) at carpeting the USA with the world’s best heating system (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#new). Carter’s “human rights” stance was phony (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#carter), but what else is new for American politicians? But Carter gets points for raising the UFO issue, as Daniel Sheehan’s amazing testimony (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/97-Steven-Greer-s-Latest-UFO-ET-Disclosure-Effort?p=938&viewfull=1#post938) shows. The way that I heard it, Carter was eventually threatened into silence, after he fired Bush the First from the CIA for stonewalling him on the UFO issue.

I have published my rough estimation of how the world’s power structure (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/108-The-Global-Controllers?p=1186&viewfull=1#post1186) looks, and American presidents are down several levels. During my adventures, we attracted attention from the top (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page3?p=623&viewfull=1#post623), and it wasn’t much fun. My life and the lives of those around me were destroyed, and Dennis should not have survived (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#mistakes). I can’t regret any of it, but don’t want to come close to events like those again. My sense is that JFK ran afoul of the big interests. Not at the very top, but more like the national-imperial power structure. I think that Rockefeller interests (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#rockefeller2) were involved, which also took us out more than once, and the most recent time, David himself got involved (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page13?p=888&viewfull=1#post888).

Thanks Joe (http://educationforum.ipbhost.com/topic/20494-bill-decker-and-john-tower/?do=findComment&comment=383636). Gary is in my pantheon, and whatever he reported that he witnessed, you can take that to the bank. His encounters with Ruby (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#ruby), due to his surveillance of Mickey Cohen (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page8?p=763&viewfull=1#post763) (and some of Gary’s Cohen anecdotes were hilarious (https://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=451136&viewfull=1#post451136)) showed that Ruby was far from a small-time loser (Cohen’s attorney became Ruby’s attorney (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page8?p=763&viewfull=1#post763)), and I consider his official portrayal about as faithful to the facts as portraying Oswald as some lone nut commie. I have seen attempts to discredit Gary by challenging his attempts to solve the crime, or how his book was not scholarly, but those attempts miss the point, probably intentionally, of Gary’s reporting. You can take his reporting of the John Tower conversation (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#tower) to the bank, but when Gary attempts to connect the dots, challenging his ideas is very appropriate, but his ideas are also not easy to dismiss.

Specifically, Gary thought that the Jewish mob was behind the JFK hit. Well, Ruby was a Jewish mobster, so right there, Gary’s idea has some merit (Michael Piper Collins wrote a book to that effect, and Gary told me that he gave Collins the idea). I don’t know what Gary’s evidence was, but Gary thought that Arlen Specter monitored Hunt’s grand plan and coordinated the real hit, as it interposed the fake one. We all know “Magic Bullet (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page8?p=767&viewfull=1#post767)” Specter’s role in the Warren Commission. Ruby’s phone activity was really something, which RFK and others thought highly peculiar for a small-time loser. Gary noted a call from Jewish mobsters in Ventura County at the time of the JFK hit, and Gary thought that it was significant. I sure don’t know and, to me, that is all ancillary to what Gary wrote that he witnessed. Gary constantly waged lawsuits against the Jewish mobsters, trying to get his evidence on the record. I thought that it was pretty amazing for Doug Caddy to know just the gangster judge (http://educationforum.ipbhost.com/topic/20494-bill-decker-and-john-tower/?do=findComment&comment=319908) that I was writing about, because of a case from the 1970s. You don’t take on people like that, waging lawsuits and risking your life (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#hit), and make stuff up. Gary told me that the only thing that kept him alive was always obeying the law, or they would have had a handy excuse to murder him.

For the record, Gary wrote his book while working at his gas station and store, drafting it between customers, and his wife typed it up. After his career was wiped out because he refused to frame people (he was made the offer he could not refuse (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#make)), that store became his retirement nest egg. I know all too well the kind of situation that Gary was in, trying to survive the evil activities directed at him, and when critics noted that he spelled Dealey Plaza incorrectly in his book, as a way to discredit him, they don’t get it. To me, that makes Gary’s book even more credible, knowing how he wrote it. And the gangsters who run Ventura County stole Gary’s store from him, too, and he died destitute, in exile, in Oregon, with a warrant for his wife’s arrest in California, as she refused to hand over the deed after they stole his store. As I learned the hard way (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#mr), they can just make it up as they go.

For the record, I think that the Jewish mob was involved, but they were not the masterminds. They were part of the muscle for the hit, and the shooter teams were likely a CIA/mob operation, and Ruby’s job was silencing Oswald, who probably should have been killed immediately after the JFK hit, but survived, so Ruby had to finish the job, with a suicidal hit on national TV. Oswald knew way too much, and had to be silenced ASAP. That is my take on it.

Wade

I'm probably a few years older than you are ... I'm hoping to see enough unfold in perhaps 20 years, to see us at least a good bit further into the corner. It's one of my stronger motives for doing well by my body's health ... if I can't live to the "end" of the play (there never really is an end), then at least perhaps I can get far enough into the current transition between acts to better glimpse the next act.

My comments above about the deep state, and the deeper state were considering a shorter time span, say a few years, not a few decades. The study of caterpillars over hours is quite different from the study of them over weeks, when butterflies need to be considered as well.

I agree - overhauling our physics and our energy and materials technologies changes "everything" as to how a civilization works. Your epoch table (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochaltable) does a nice job of listing key changes.

The existing elite will endeavor to maintain control, even as they continue to unfold (reveal and put into wider use) new physics and new technologies, including I suspect mining minerals from asteroids and nearby planets using robots, to help build out the first generation prototypes of what you call the Fifth Epoch. But this will change the underlying "energetic eco-system" of our civilization so substantially, that we (well, except for a few visionairies such as yourself) will scarcely recognize the result once it begins to reach its fuller blossom.

===

For me, the primary catalyst for humanity's transition into the Fifth Epoch is wide spread sharing of the better science knowledge, such as in physics and astronomy, that has been kept somewhat under wraps, and the deployment of various technologies, such as for energy, propulsion, materials, computation, communication, and genetics, that have been held back, for lack of broad scale knowledge and acceptance of the better science (science that has been known or at least being researched behind closed doors for the better part of a century for now.)

If those sciences and technologies reach wide deployment, then it will be like handing the keys for an 800 horsepower Ferrari to an 18 year old boy for his first car. We'll find out quickly how responsible, or irresponsible, our 18 year old civilization is. Well, if irresponsible, others will find out, when they observe a flash in their night sky, where once our civilization lived.

This may be a key value of the teachings and insights, the shared learning and growth, from those who have (perhaps from the school of hard knocks) a clearer vision into the potential risks, and potential rewards, that might await us.

If that 18 year old is a bit "wise beyond his years", perhaps he'll live to be 19 ... or even 90.

In 2013, Dennis showed me one of his free energy prototypes, which began showing the ZPE effect at about 2,000 RPMs,
I might speculate that such speeds are needed, in mechanical rotating ZPE devices, so that the dynamic properties of electromagnetism dominate over the static property.

The static property is the classical "like charges repel, unlike attract", of Coulomb's law, which ends up in Maxwell's equations via Gauss's law, which states that the electrostatic force generated by a charge depends on how much charge there is, and the distance from it. (*)

The dynamic properties end up in Maxwell's equations via Faraday's and Ampere's laws. Faraday's law tells us, in part, that magnetic fields push moving negative charges in the opposite direction from what they push positive charges. Ampere's law tells us, in part, that accelerating charged particles generate magnetic fields.

So, combined, we end up realizing that moving charged particles generate "forces" (a concept I suspect that an aether based theory better explains) that cause positive and negative oppositely charged particles to accelerate ... in opposite directions. All of which makes for a very complex, dynamic, ever changing, dance, on a vast range of scales, from the sub-atomic to the inter-galactic.

While I doubt that a good physics course, a half century from now, will present Maxwell's equations as quite the gospel that they are presented now, still, they have some useful applications, within their limits. In particular, they help us understand plasmas (how moving streams of charged particles behave quite differently than static charges), and perhaps some of (probably not all of) the essential design principles of zero point energy devices.

A reworking of Maxwell's equations, from the "ground" up, might illuminate the error in the equations that Ben Rich, Director of Lockheed’s Skunk Works, spoke of:

We found an error in the equations and we now know how to travel to the stars, and it won’t take us a lifetime to do it.
The same reworking, in the physics publicly accepted by universities, professors, and industry, might illuminate the way to wide spread use of "ZPE" in a variety of other ways, beyond just space travel to the stars.

===

(*) P.S. -- My current intuition suggests that this static property involving charged masses attracting or repelling boils down to another manifestation of the dynamic properties of moving charges. But that topic is too advanced for me to competently pursue at present.

Hi Paul (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1239364&viewfull=1#post1239364):

Big subjects. :) I can’t do justice to the subjects you raise in a post or two, but here is the highly abbreviated version:

I am big into a peaceful transition into the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#peacekeeping). Technically, I believe that the means to a peaceful and harmless transition was mastered long ago. What is missing is the desire, and enlightenment, if you will. Psychopaths run the show today, but there is dissention in the ranks. I believe that members of the disenchanted faction of the GCs (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc) gave my pal his show (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#underground) a generation ago. I call them “gray hats (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/108-The-Global-Controllers?p=1173&viewfull=1#post1173).” I am trying to help raise the “vibe,” so to speak, which is a big missing ingredient today. The love and enlightenment path to the Fifth Epoch has yet to be tried out. This world (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?32399-A-Future-Earth&p=672748&viewfull=1#post672748), or something very close to it, beckons, if enough of us can raise our games.

Ah, free energy physics. I’ll tiptoe through there for a minute with you. In the end, whether it is rotating magnets or something solid state, like Sparky had (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ideal), whether we call it forming a standing wave in the ether or the effects of magnetic fields and charged particles (electron flows, for instance), I think that a conduit is being formed to bring in energy from another dimension, or perhaps something like harnessing dark energy. I think that the real mystery is the source, and my journey led me to suspect that that source is ultimately divine (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#divine) (the ultimate brass ring for beings in physical reality), and that if an individual or society did not possess enough divine intention, then they won’t tap the field, or not for long. Over the years of encountering the spooky stuff, I have repeatedly heard that what the GCs possess are primitive imitations of what they “stole” from captured alien craft, and until humanity understands the nature of consciousness far better, we are not going to go very far down that road.

So, it is certainly not all about technology, or an alternative physics, at least in the way that we think of it. I completely agree that today’s physics will be overturned, so much so that what comes next is likely unrecognizable to today’s scientists. Every Epoch has been like that: unfathomable to denizens of the prior Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#imagine).

As I have stated plenty, I have seen many alternative physics models, and you see electric universe, quantum gravity, and other frameworks being put forth. I don’t think that any of it has its arms completely around the principles that made my friend’s show possible. Science ideally is about discovery and a process to advance human understanding. I respect science’s ideal (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#theories), just like I respect the idea of democracy, a free press, a free market, and an objective history. It is just that none of those have ever really existed on Earth yet. Maybe in the Fifth Epoch. :) Time for bed, and truly, thanks for writing.

I think that I am going to be writing a lot about the JFK hit and Gary Wean (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#wean) in the future, and I’ll get back to the Fifth Epoch, Uncle Ed, and the like soon. Before the snafu with Ed’s bio happened, I was in the middle of a series of comprehensive posts (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/121-Orthodoxy-the-Fringes-Structuralism-Conspiracism-Materialism-Mysticism-etc?p=1336&viewfull=1#post1336), which I have not forgotten about. Only so many hours in a day and years in a life. I am a child of the 50s who turned 60 this year. I think that you are a child of the 40s. We are not getting any younger! :)

Best,

Wade

until humanity understands the nature of consciousness far better, we are not going to go very far down that road.
Though I didn't mention this above, I quite agree that foundational physics, whether mechanistic, quantum, relative, aethereal or whatever, will not "solve the puzzle of the universe." The problem with "physics" is that it studies "the physical" ... that's metaphysically too constraining, too simplistic, to adequately serve us.

I personally choose different terms, such as a "partial ordering" of "layers" of "self-organizing, self-perpetuating, dynamic orderings", rather than more common terms, such as "higher dimensions, spiritual or divine source", to describe my "metaphysics", but that would be too far off topic here, and I've never put it in any coherent written form anyway.

I am trying to help raise the “vibe,”
That is important to do, yes. It is perhaps our most important task at present.

Unless we "blow things up real good", it seems we're destined to "go there", to a substantially more energetic civilization, and likely within our lifetimes or soon thereafter.

Best we do so with as much wisdom, as high a vibration, as we can muster.

As you have articulated more than myself or most others have even glimpsed, much will change in the ways, means, and structure of our civilization, limited primarily by the limits of our awareness.

Thanks Paul (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1239433&viewfull=1#post1239433):

I have a lot of respect for the scientific process and its findings, and when scientists say “self-organizing,” as long as they acknowledge that the essence behind that self-organizing as something that today’s science cannot answer, instead of playing materialist and playing the “laws of physics” card, I am fine with that. The greatest physicists were keenly aware of the limits of their discipline and how little they knew (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#mystical). Today, as with all disciplines in a world of scarcity and fear (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#coming), science has been turned into a religion in many circles, and materialism is the religion of the Fourth Epoch. I predict that materialism will end in the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5), and it will be partly due to the scientific “discoveries” that led to what my friend was shown (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#underground). We are not alone in the universe, and if our galactic neighbors are humanoid, it is going to turn evolutionary theory upside down. It would be nice to live to see it.

But when you have a voice in your head (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#voice3) lead you an on odyssey that few can even believe happened, and participated in events that can only be described as divine intervention (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#it), then the materialistic framework is left far behind. Brian O was a big advocate of scientific investigation of paranormal phenomenon (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#frontiers), my fellow free energy travelers all had mystical awakenings (http://ahealedplanet.net/journey.htm#mystical), and we were all scientists or scientists-in-training. Our awakenings usually happened in our late teens or early 20s. Brian was a relative old man, at nearly 40 when he got his (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#remote), and it ruined us as mainstream scientists, as we could no longer drink the Kool-Aid.

Seth (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#seth), among others, has described what will happen. As scientists keep finding more and more subatomic particles, as they rip atoms apart and the like, they are going to begin to suspect that something is awry with their approach. The greatest science of all is the science of consciousness, and today’s science has barely scratched the surface.

On raising the vibe and such, I am not prepared to cede humanity’s and Earth’s future to the GCs (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/108-The-Global-Controllers?p=1167&viewfull=1#post1167) and their machinations. But we also have to think and act like creators, not victims, if we are going to make a dent. That is no mean feat, and creators create with love. I wrote long ago what the dent-makers will have in common (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=308&viewfull=1#post308), and if not my effort, then another, but I doubt that the requirements (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/52-Helpful-Prerequisites-for-Forum-Participation?p=69&viewfull=1#post69) will change. I discovered them after a lifetime of this pursuit. Off to Gary Wean and the JFK hit (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#wean).

In another forum...

Thanks Paul (http://educationforum.ipbhost.com/topic/20494-bill-decker-and-john-tower/?do=findComment&comment=383648):

This forum has members that have spent their lifetimes studying the JFK hit, and I have a lot of respect for their positions. The JFK hit is a small part of my work. My lifetime’s magnum opus is several hundred pages long and only devotes a paragraph to the Kennedys (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#jfk). As far as the JFK hit goes, amongst such august company, my greatest contribution is going to be lending credence to Gary’s reporting (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#wean). To that end, I plan to make a series of posts on Gary and me (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit?p=1398&viewfull=1#post1398), in a way that I have not quite done before, to make Gary as real as I can.

I have stated it many times: solving the crime is not really my goal regarding the JFK hit, and I doubt that anybody ever will, not in a way that will convince casual observers. The best evidence was deeply buried at the outset, other than stray pieces that will likely never see the light of day, such as the package that John Tower gave to Gary. You can take Gary’s reporting of the Tower conversation (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#tower) to the bank, and if legit (and I have no doubt about that), then it means that there is no way that Oswald was a Lone Nut commie, and that the Warren Commission was a whitewash from the outset. And that means that our government and system in general is completely illegitimate. That is the point of my work on the JFK hit. Our system is not worth believing in, and I seek people who have awoken to that fact (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=309&viewfull=1#post309) or are on their way to that revelation, and maybe my work can help them. But people can only awaken by experience, not a literature review or received teaching. Work like mine can only help along a process that already began.

For the record, I believe that the people that interposed the JFK operation, turning a fake assassination attempt to frame Castro into a real one, hailed from the Rockefeller/CIA side of the house, as the Eastern Oligarchy took out the upstart newcomer who was a very reluctant imperialist, and Allen Dulles was their man (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#dulles). If Dulles was not involved in the hit, and there is plenty of circumstantial evidence that he was, he undoubtedly led the cover-up. The cover-up was so successful that assassinating key political figures (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#wallace) became a pastime for America’s spooks for a generation, clear up to the Reagan shooting (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#reagan), with a lone nut patsy served up each time, and each “nut” had connections to the spooks (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/115-The-Spooks?p=1257&viewfull=1#post1257).

But I am going to leave that aside for now and just write about Gary and my relationship with him. It was not as close as we would have liked, but it was close enough, and we were pals for the rest of Gary’s life, after he came through for me, and big, in my hour of need (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#wean). For that alone, Gary will always be in my pantheon, even though our political philosophies did not have a great deal in common, when looked at a certain way. In other ways, we sang the same song. So, without further ado, I’ll write about Gary and me.

The setting for Gary’s book is Los Angeles and Ventura County, where Gary worked and lived during his odyssey. I was born in Seattle and live there today, my parents were born and raised in Bellingham, Washington, but they discovered sunshine when my father joined the marines (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#business). After graduating from the University of Washington, my father moved the family from Seattle to Ventura County when I was four, and except for his year at NASA in Houston (http://ahealedplanet.net/paths.htm#oleary), my father spent the rest of his life in Ventura County, and has lived in the same house in Ventura for more than 50 years. Ventura is the primary setting for Gary’s book.

I went to the university in San Luis Obispo (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/California_Polytechnic_State_University), and the last place on Earth where I wanted to be after graduation was LA, but I picked the worst recession in 40 years to graduate from college (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#grad). After my first post-graduate misadventure in Seattle, I really began my career in the big time in LA, working for one of the world’s largest accounting firms, and spent my life’s three unhappiest years working there. My naïveté (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#believing) was pronounced and even charming back then, as I tried to make sense of my “education” in comparison to what I was encountering in the real world (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=406928&viewfull=1#post406928). An overgrown Boy Scout met reality (http://ahealedplanet.net/paths.htm#scouts).

My journey is filled with many larger-than-life events, such as a voice in my head leading me into accounting (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#voice) and leading me straight (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#voice2) into what became my life’s work: changing humanity’s energy paradigm and ushering in a new Epoch of the human journey (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5). When I chased the owner of the energy company that I worked for in Seattle out to Boston (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#chasing), chasing my teenage dream (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#glimpse), becoming his partner was the furthest thing from my mind. But I did (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page3?p=614&viewfull=1#post614), in another series of preposterous events (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=611&viewfull=1#post611), and the same year that I became his partner, when my learning curve insanely steepened, Gary published his book, There’s a Fish in the Courthouse, which chronicled his adventures. Like the Kennedys and my work, the JFK hit is really a minor part of Gary’s book, a brief interlude during Gary’s adventures, which is probably the closest real-world example of the plot of the movie LA Confidential (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/L.A._Confidential_(film)).

As fate would have it, soon after becoming a partner in pursuing free energy, my connections saw me land in Southern California again, which was the last place on Earth where I wanted to be, but there I was, and my life was ruined (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#mr) over the course of the next three years. When I staggered out of Ventura in 1990 (http://ahealedplanet.net/lessons.htm#books), never to return, I had been radicalized and would never see the world the same way again. But there was compensation. I picked up a wife during that stint, and Gary was one of the beacons in the darkness during my ordeal. His advice was instrumental in my sacrificing my life and springing my partner from jail (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#mortgage), in the biggest miracle that I ever witnessed, which we all knew was a case of divine intervention.

With that prelude out of the way, on to Gary’s life, which will be a synopsis of his book, to a degree, and I will show how Gary’s life overlapped with mine, long before we ever met.

Best,

Wade

Hi:

I am planning to write from memory for most of this, but I got a copy of Gary’s book off of my office shelf, to refer to periodically. I see that it goes for $180 on Amazon today (one copy is being sold for $10K), and less than ten copies are for sale, so it is not easy to get anymore. Both editions of Gary’s book were printed pretty cheaply, and quickly began to fall apart on me. It was a self-published edition, and was sold by one of Gary’s pals out of Texas for years, but it looks like it is not anymore. Kind of like Uncle Ed (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm), Gary was never very disclosing about himself, so I don’t know what his early life was like. His standard author bio states that he was in the Navy in the Pacific Theater in World War II (you can see that on his gravestone (https://billiongraves.com/grave/GARETH-L-WEAN/23786007)), and joined the LAPD a month after his discharge, in January 1946, and that is where I’ll begin my story. Gary manned a gun aboard a warship, and only referred to his Navy days briefly, including the carnage that he witnessed. During his days in LA, Gary became close friends with America’s most famous war hero, Audie Murphy (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audie_Murphy), and even moonlighted as Murphy’s bodyguard.

When Gary became a cop, the LA crime scene was run by Mickey Cohen (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mickey_Cohen). Cohen was a boxer while young (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mickey_Cohen#Boxing_career), worked with Al Capone’s outfit, running gambling operations and sometimes killing patrons, and did a little prison time during his Capone stint. Cohen also worked for Meyer Lansky (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meyer_Lansky) for a while in Cleveland. In 1939, Cohen arrived in LA and worked for Bugsy Siegel (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bugsy_Siegel), the mobster who “built” Las Vegas. While working for Siegel, Cohen set up the race wire, which was a foundation of Vegas gambling. I have connections to Vegas, some of which are kind of funny (https://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=912176&viewfull=1#post912176), in one of the many overlaps that my journey had with Gary’s. Siegel was murdered in 1947, leaving Cohen in charge in LA. Art can imitate life, and in LA, life could imitate art (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Life_imitating_art). Gary wrote that Cohen had mannerisms that resembled movie gangster Edward G. Robinson’s (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_G._Robinson). Who was stealing from whom?

At the beginning of his career, Gary was assigned to put Cohen under surveillance. In the summer of 1946, Gary provided traffic control and a police presence at Hollywood Park (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hollywood_Park_Racetrack) for the racing season and Cohen arrived in his limo regularly that season. Gary gave Cohen’s limo special traffic privileges, and at the end of the season, Cohen said thanks in a way that only gangsters can, as he demonstrated to Gary that the horseraces were all rigged (https://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=451136&viewfull=1#post451136). Cohen rode in the back of his limo, and sometimes had VIPs ride with him in the back. One day, Gary saw somebody new in the back with Cohen, and the next year, Gary ran into him at a restaurant that Cohen’s gambling partner ran. The man knew that they were cops and introduced himself as Jack Ruby, and he waxed on about how the West Coast was dead due to the end of World War II, so the mob was putting its money into its operations in Havana and New Orleans (the equivalent of many billions of dollars today), where the new action would be. Fittingly, Ruby wore a huge ruby ring. Gary was working as a plainclothes cop in 1947, and while chatting up a bar owner, who told Gary that he could place his bets at the bar, in walked Cohen and Ruby, who both recognized Gary. Gary never saw Ruby again, until he made the news in 1963 as Oswald’s assassin.

Like in movies and consistent with his background, Cohen hung out at the racetrack, the boxing arena, and ethic restaurants. Gary used a Jewish informant to sit near Cohen, listening to his conversations in Yiddish. His informant also wore a wire at times. As with Ruby, Cohen would meet with people that Gary did not initially know, but Gary and his team would do the legwork and find out. In the late 1950s, Gary saw somebody new whom Cohen seemed to be taking orders from, and Gary discovered that it was Menachem Begin (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Menachem_Begin), the bona fide terrorist (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#israel) and future Israeli prime minister, whose reign was legendary for its brutality. Begin was once wanted for murder in the UK, for blowing up the King David Hotel in Jerusalem (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/King_David_Hotel_bombing), which killed nearly a hundred people.

Cohen and Begin regularly met at the Beverly Wilshire Hotel’s lunch counter, and Gary’s informant once sat next to them, listening to their conversation in Yiddish, while Gary and his partner sat in a nearby surveillance van. The conversation was all about Jack Kennedy, Cuba, and military operations. It is well known that Cohen was an arms dealer for Israel, donating a gun ship to Israel in their early days. One of Cohen’s top-notch hookers often serviced Begin when he was in town, and Begin became a regular LA visitor in those days.

One night, Gary and his partner tailed Cohen and Begin, who had been having a conversation about JFK as they cursed him for wasting money on the Peace Corps, to what turned out to be Melvin Belli’s house, and Cap Weinberger’s car was there, too. Weinberger became the Secretary of Defense under Reagan (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caspar_Weinberger#Secretary_of_Defense), and Belli (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Melvin_Belli), who was also serviced by Cohen’s hooker-girlfriend, was Cohen’s attorney, and later, Ruby’s, after he shot Oswald.

Gary was right in the middle of all of that, and one evening in 1947, Gary surveilled a meeting that Cohen had in a parking lot with several Jewish mobsters, and one was Cohen’s protégé, a Jew who became a federal court judge in LA, who reigned for nearly 40 years as a “liberal” judge. He died last year, so now I will name him: Harry Pregerson (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harry_Pregerson). When I began writing about it on this thread (http://educationforum.ipbhost.com/topic/20494-bill-decker-and-john-tower/?do=findComment&comment=319760), the original Watergate defense attorney, Doug Caddy (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Douglas_Caddy), knew whom I was writing about (http://educationforum.ipbhost.com/topic/20494-bill-decker-and-john-tower/?do=findComment&comment=319908), as he had witnessed one of Pregerson’s judicial irregularities in the 1970s.

Gary got in deeply, too deeply, which cost him his LAPD job, as Pregerson and friends got Gary fired. Gary then took a job in Ventura County, where we eventually met. By the late 1950s, Gary was back in LA as an investigator for the District Attorney’s office.

There is a great deal more to write about Gary’s days before we met, and I’ll get into our many overlaps.

Best,

Wade

Hi:

There is so much to write about Gary’s career, long before it ended in 1970, when he refused to help frame people and was framed instead. Dealing with the escapades of Hollywood celebrities, gangsters, and politicians was Gary’s daily existence. Gary wrote about how the “glamour of LA” was far more image than substance, and he wrote of how aspiring gangsters would come to LA, along with other Hollywood hopefuls, planning on a glamorous gangster life, with exotic and daring assignments, to only barely make it as a hooker’s pimp on Hollywood Boulevard. One such aspiring hood was Johnny Stompanato (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johnny_Stompanato), who was in Peleliu and Okinawa with Eugene Sledge (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#sledge), and after the war he was a supremely endowed Italian Stallion that cut a swath through Hollywood, so much so that, in 1948, Frank Sinatra asked Cohen to tell Stompanato (who was Cohen’s bodyguard) to stay away from Ava Gardner. In 1957, Stompanato hooked up with Lana Turner, and early in their torrid relationship, Cohen magnanimously paid for a hotel room in Malibu, where the lovers could frolic one weekend. Cohen had the bed wired for sound, however, and made two thousand records of the recording of their trysts. It became a hit at Hollywood parties. Their relationship was famously rocky, Stompanato roughed up Turner a few times and pulled a gun on Turner’s beau, Sean Connery. When Turner’s daughter stabbed Stompanato to death in Turner’s home (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johnny_Stompanato#Fatal_stabbing), it was ruled as justifiable homicide, in one of Hollywood’s bigger scandals. In the wake of Stompanato’s death, that record became the “must have” item in Hollywood, and Cohen printed up thousands more copies, making big money.

Gary’s account was far more than salacious gossip, as Cohen later planned to deliver a tape of Marilyn Monroe and JFK in bed together, and that begins treading into JFK territory. JFK was nominated for president in LA in 1960, and Gary surveilled the Malibu beach party at Peter Lawford’s home, where JFK met Monroe. Anthony Summers (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anthony_Summers) had already written a book on the JFK hit, published in 1980, and was researching his Marylyn Monroe book when he was put in contact with Gary, as the only person left from those days who knew what happened. Summers met with Gary and repeatedly tried to get Gary to go on TV. During their encounters, Summers told Gary that it was Joey Bishop (another Rat Packer (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rat_Pack)), not Frank Sinatra, who arranged JFK’s introduction to Monroe. That Vegas connection (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=912176&viewfull=1#post912176) through my relative is also a Rat Pack connection. Bishop was one of Cohen’s pals, a fellow Jew, and Gary believed, with cause, that Monroe was being used in an influence-peddling scheme in the White House. JFK was not very friendly with Israel, as he promoted Arab and African independence and development. JFK was a legendary philanderer, and getting him and Monroe in a room together with like putting a match and stick of dynamite in close proximity. Monroe was supposed to elicit JFK’s intentions about Israel in pillow talk, and Cohen planned to get a tape of JFK and Monroe in bed together, to blackmail JFK if necessary. Blackmailing the sitting president; that takes some brass.

Gary knew that Monroe was controlled by mobsters and that she was in way over her head, and that her mobster handlers killed her, and he regarded Summers’s claim that Bobby Kennedy was there when she died as spurious. Gary wrote that Summers also had twisted their conversation as presented in his Monroe biography.

Gary wrote that the legendary Fred Otash (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fred_Otash), whose exploits were the inspiration for the movie LA Confidential and the TV show 77 Sunset Strip (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/77_Sunset_Strip), was involved with bugging Stompanato and Turner’s love nest, and that Otash tried mightily to get something on JFK and Monroe together, but he never could. Gary may have been mistaken (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#otash). Otash was the chief information source for Summers’s documentary, and Gary called Otash: “without any equal, the most conniving, thieving, lying shamus the Hollywood scene ever experienced.” Gary helped convict Otash for drugging racehorses, and they were not pals. Gary was glad that he did not take up Summers’s offer to be on TV with him.

The life of a cop could be a string of boring tasks punctuated by violent situations. In 1947, Gary was on a high-speed chase through LA. The quarry had just murdered somebody in a robbery, and as the chase ended and Gary arrested the suspect, the suspect shot Gary’s hand and shoved his pistol into Gary’s abdomen and fired, and Gary was miraculously saved by his belt buckle (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#belt).

Next, I’ll cover the event that Gary is most famous for, his meeting with John Tower (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#tower), three weeks after the JFK hit. It is really a small part of his book, but it understandably is what most people are most interested in.

Hi:

So, off to the incident that Gary is best known for. I have written the straight version, here (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#tower), so there is no need to belabor it. Gary heard straight from John Tower that Oswald’s role in the assassination was to play a fake assassin in a fabricated assassination attempt, as a way to frame Castro and spur JFK to authorize an outright invasion of Cuba. It was E. Howard Hunt’s grand plan, which was eerily similar to Operation Northwoods (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#northwoods). Now that we know how close humanity came to a nuclear holocaust over the Cuban Missile Crisis, Hunt’s plan (and Northwoods) was something right out of Dr. Strangelove.

I read Gary’s account of the Tower conversation in 1989, and before then, I was not a student of the JFK assassination. My father was a fan of JFK (he visited my father’s naval base the same year that he died, and my father got within a few feet of him), and one of his coworkers shouted his approval in the halls when JFK was murdered, and my father thought that the Warren Commission was a whitewash, but I really did not know much about the assassination when I read Gary’s account. Over the next dozen years, however, I became a student of the assassination, with a few bookshelves of my library devoted to the issue, and I first went public with my take on the hit in 2001.

A reproduction of that chapter of Gary’s book is on the Internet (http://kenrahn.com/JFK/Critical_Summaries/Articles/Wean_Chap_44.html), accompanied by critical analysis, but that author’s criticisms have no bearing on the veracity of what Gary witnessed. Gary’s misspelling of Dealey Plaza, for instance, is irrelevant to that issue, as are the rest of the criticisms. I have no doubt that Gary was reporting the Tower conversation to the best of his recollection. Gary’s book is going to become rarer and likely more expensive, before it completely disappears from circulation, as I doubt that his book will be reprinted again. I am really the only person on the Internet who writes about Gary much, and that is too bad.

In my cover-up essay, my work on the Moon landings (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#apollo) was more immediately relevant to me, as the publication of that essay led me to finding evidence that the Moon landings happened as advertised (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#paydirt), and that section on Apollo is what led Brian to invite me to hang out with him (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#governor), which began our collaborations in earnest, and a couple of years later, we co-founded the New Energy Movement (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#nem).

During the 12 years before I went public with what I thought, I never saw any convincing piece of evidence contradict Gary’s account of the Tower conversation, and over the years, as more evidence came to light, such as the Northwoods documents, Gary’s account became even more impressive. Gary did not reveal Tower’s identity until after he died in a plane crash, as Audie Murphy also did, and Gary did not think that they were accidents. A coming post will deal with bringing planes down to clean up operations and witnesses.

Best,

Hi:

As somebody who writes popularized science (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#toolset), I acknowledge the distinction between facts and theories. Facts are data that people can generally agree on. Think of them as dots, if you will. Theories are how scientists attempt to connect the dots, to understand how the universe works. As Einstein said, every theory eventually dies at the hands of new facts, and he expected that his theories would eventually die at the hands of new facts, but that the best parts of his theories would survive in the new ones. That is a scientific ideal (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#theories), and arguably the scientific ideal.

Gary’s reporting of the John Tower conversation (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit?p=1401&viewfull=1#post1401) is not a theory but a fact. It is not a reproducible fact, which scientific theories are ideally predicated on, and people can argue that it is a false rendering of the events or even made out of whole cloth, which would make Gary a liar or insane. Gary wrote that Tower said that he had no idea who the real assassins were, but Tower’s reporting, if Gary’s rendition is accepted at all, destroys the idea that Oswald was the lone assassin. For me, that is enough, especially for the lesson that I take from the entire affair, which is that the official investigation was a sham from the outset. The world’s most powerful retail politician can be murdered in broad daylight in front of hundreds of witnesses, and it all gets covered up. JFK’s murder was akin to a palace coup, and the man that he fired a couple of years earlier led the “investigation” into his death, and that man ran America’s spook apparatus for many years. The conflicts of interest are breathtaking. The most immediate beneficiary of the crime shared a wink (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page8?p=767&viewfull=1#post767) as he was being sworn in next to a blood-spattered Jackie Kennedy.

Criminal prosecutions are based on the idea of using admissible facts and convincingly connecting the dots, in order to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that the perpetrator is guilty of the crime. I am well aware of the vast gulf between practice and theory in legal practice in the USA; I lived it all too vividly (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#jail). The entire point of Ed Herman’s media analysis career was examining how the media handled the facts (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#contribution).

But dots are dots, and should not be confused with attempts to connect them. Gary’s book only spends about a chapter dealing with JFK’s murder. Gary’s profession was solving crimes, so it was only natural for him to take Tower’s testimony and try to connect the dots. That is largely where Gary and I parted ways on the JFK hit. It was not that Gary’s work on that should be dismissed out of hand, but his reporting of the Tower conversation was enough for me, and in the nearly 30 years of examining the JFK assassination evidence, I never saw a convincing piece of evidence contradict Gary’s Tower story, and since Gary first published his book in 1987, more evidence, such as the Northwoods documents (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#northwoods), powerfully supports Gary’s tale. I have seen Gary’s Tower story described as the nexus for tying together many disparate elements of the JFK hit, including the connections to the CIA, FBI, Texas, oil men, George Bush the First, and Cuba.

So far, in this string of posts (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit?p=1398&viewfull=1#post1398), I covered some of Gary’s interactions with Jewish mobsters, including Cohen, Ruby, and one of Cohen’s protégés who was a federal judge for nearly 40 years. Gary thought that Jewish mobsters were behind the JFK hit, and while I never dismissed the idea, I don’t find it highly persuasive, nor do I find any theory on the identity of the perpetrators to be conclusive. There is a great deal of data on the matter, of various levels of credibility and relevance, and many lifetimes have been spent connecting those dots, or failing to. But I need to give Gary’s views on the matter some justice, so I will present them, but reading Gary’s work is going to be better than my rendition of it. There are others who could do a better job of it, but none of them are either alive today or actively writing, so this task seems to fall to me for now.

I don’t know what Gary’s evidence was, but he once wrote that Arlen Specter, the author of the single bullet theory (AKA “Magic Bullet (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page8?p=762&viewfull=1#post762)”), monitored Hunt’s operation and coordinated its interposition, turning a fake assassination attempt into a real one. Gary wrote that Jewish mobsters in Southern California were involved, and that Ruby was supposed to kill Oswald immediately after the JFK hit, but Oswald got away (when policeman J.D. Tippit (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/J._D._Tippit) was killed), and Ruby was ordered to finish the job, which he soon did. Gary argued that Lyndon Johnson enacted the cover-up to prevent a slaughter of American Jews if the American public learned who was behind it. The dots that Gary used to hang his theory on was the Tower conversation, his dealings with and investigations of Jewish mobsters, and a healthy helping of Anthony Summers’s book on the JFK hit (Conspiracy). Gary connected a lot of dots from his days as a cop, but Gary was no scholar. Gary was onboard with a theme in Summers’s book, that JFK was trying to end the Cold War, and for that, he had to go. I agree with that idea, but far more than Jewish mobsters wanted JFK dead. Kennedy had angered the entire Eastern Oligarchy and spook community, as a decidedly reluctant imperialist who took on Wall Street and other bastions of privilege. His stance on Africa, for instance, was diametrically opposed to Dwight Eisenhower’s, and no president since JFK has been as supportive of African aspirations. In fact, the West, led by the USA, is actively recolonizing Africa (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#chaos) as I write this.

I’ll say this, however: whoever interposed the fake assassination operation did it brilliantly, and helped ensure that the chumps that were in on the fake plan went into CYA mode and helped cover it all up. Those chumps included the bureaucracies at the CIA, FBI, and Pentagon, and you could hardly hope for greater allies in a cover-up than those, especially when all of the “evidence” that the Warren Commission used came through the hands of those organizations. What damning evidence could be left after they all got done with it? There is overwhelming evidence of their involvement in switching, manufacturing, and eliminating the evidence, including the untimely demise of many witnesses and possible participants, in order to frame Oswald as the lone nut commie assassin. I have written plenty (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page8?p=768&viewfull=1#post768) that I consider the Carcano rifle, the Magic Bullet, the backyard photos (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#backyard), and the camera that allegedly took them to all be planted evidence to frame Oswald. And with Oswald quickly silenced and in no position to defend himself, the foregone conclusion was quickly reached. Dulles sent a “lone nut” book to the other Warren Commission members before they ever convened.

Gary was not an idle theorist, however. He constantly waged lawsuits, trying to get evidence on the record, as he took on the mobsters who ran Ventura County and beyond. They tried to kill him once (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#hit), when one of his lawsuits held up one of their criminal enterprises of fleecing the public. Gary’s bête noir was the Jewish mob, and his work needs to be read with that in mind, and please note that Jews do not come up at all in the Tower conversation. There is a long way to go before I finish this series of posts.

Best,

Hi:

I need to address a subject that always comes up when Gary’s work is discussed. His writings can seem to be virulently anti-Semitic and bigoted. I am not going to strenuously argue against that idea, but it also needs to be put in context, and it has no bearing on the reliability of his reporting of the John Tower conversation (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit?p=1401&viewfull=1#post1401), which does not even mention Jews or other minorities, unless we want to call Castro a member of a minority, but it never came up in that context.

I don’t want to lean too much on the presentism (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#objectivity) argument, but the writing style of Gary’s book reads like he read too many detective novels, or, because he was a detective, was it life imitating art, or was it the other way around? If you read Gary’s chapter on the JFK hit (http://kenrahn.com/JFK/Critical_Summaries/Articles/Wean_Chap_44.html), you can see what I am referring to. A scholar’s comportment is not what you will find in Gary’s writings. Gary wrote like Mickey Spillane.

In scale, duration, and intensity, the USA is history’s most racist nation (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#racism1), built on the blood of the natives, while the sweat of slaves powered the South’s plantations. Every ethnic group in the USA had some colorful epithet (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#racism) used to describe them. My father called me a “squarehead (https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/squarehead)” while growing up, and I call myself that at times, and that was a polite epithet compared to the others that I heard while growing up. When I was teenager, there was a series of ethnic joke books (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Larry_Wilde#Books) that were bestsellers. I hardly went a day during my teenage years without hearing a “nigger joke” or a joke about Mexicans. That crap began coming out of my mouth, too, and it was not until I left home for the university that a roommate began to call me on it, and I soon realized what kind of barn I had been raised in. By my college graduation, I had put it behind me. I could go an entire year without hearing the word “nigger” until ten minutes after arriving at my childhood home for a visit. It began to feel like I was in a time warp whenever I visited home. Go forward another decade, when I was a controller of a trucking company in Ohio (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/83-My-days-in-the-trucking-industry?p=272&viewfull=1#post272), and many of our drivers were from the South or Appalachia, and a string of four-letter words could be morning greetings. Grandmotherly types would swear like sailors.

Before I got that job, I worked at a bank in rural Ohio, and the people there tried to get me fired my first week on the job (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#englishinvasion), because I was not from their small town, as I got to experience Appalachian xenophobia. For all that I had been through during my days with Dennis, I was still shocked. After being at the trucking company for a few months and becoming accepted (I was a superstar in that industry), one day a colleague decided to regale me with reading “jokes” to me from a black joke book, and I imagine that it was from that bestselling series. I was horrified to be in that situation, and after a minute of hearing those “jokes,” I said that I was a recovering racist and I could not listen to such “humor.” The president of my trucking company made his disdain of black people very clear, and if anything turned up missing at our office, he immediately suspected the two black people at our company. For five years, I watched him pat a co-worker peer on the butt, nearly daily. Sexual harassment was part of the daily environment. I saw that kind of good old boy bigotry go all the way to the CEO, and it was a publicly held company.

That was in the 1990s, not so long ago, although we could say that the trucking industry was a little earthier than the norm. It was far worse in the 1970s, 1950s, and earlier. Lynching was an American sport (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lynching#United_States), with the murders taking place in a festive atmosphere, clear into my lifetime. That was after the American Indian had largely been exterminated (http://ahealedplanet.net/columbus.htm#genocide), amongst the lusty cheers (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#debate). In the 1960s and 1970s, the USA murdered “gooks (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#gooks)” by the millions. Gary was a sailor, in the Pacific Theater, which was where the most racist fighting in all of World War II (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#sledge) happened. As Paul Fussell (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#fussell) wrote of in his books on World War II, the favorite noun, adjective, and verb of American soldiers in World War II began with the letter “F.” The kinds of behaviors that I saw in the 1990s would not last an instant in my present work environment, but even today, women in Silicon Valley, the supposed leading edge of enlightened workplaces, are exposing the endemic sexism there (1 (https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2017/04/why-is-silicon-valley-so-awful-to-women/517788/), 2 (https://money.cnn.com/2017/08/09/technology/culture/silicon-valley-sexism/index.html)). We have so very far to go before approaching anything close to enlightenment. It is all born of scarcity and fear, IMO, which should disappear in the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5).

Today, it is dark-skinned peoples, in a swath from Northern Africa to Afghanistan, bearing the brunt of American interventions, and if you get an American soldier alone and talking frankly, you will hear “Haji,” “raghead,” and other terms. Millions of Africans have been murdered in the past generation by our proxies in sub-Saharan Africa (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#rwanda). Do you think that it if had been millions of white people murdered by American proxies, that the American people would have at least heard of them? That awesome disparity in depiction (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#ratio) in the American media has plenty of racism behind it, even beyond the benign/constructive/nefarious (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#bloodbaths) classifications that Noam and Ed invented.

Today, American racism and bigotry has kind of gone underground. We may slaughter millions of people as we secure Oil Country (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#invading), but no American president can call our victims a racial epithet, or else there will be hell to pay. In today’s environment, if Trump ever said the word “nigger,” there would likely be calls for impeachment, but if he merely slaughters millions of non-whites, then all is well in the imperial heartland.

So, next to all of that, Gary’s anti-Jewish and arguably bigoted writings pale into insignificance, and none of it has any bearing on his truthful reporting of the Tower conversation. Gary was a man of his time. I knew many people from Gary’s generation, and racism and bigotry just came with the territory. JFK was a sailor, too, but was the first postwar president who did not calls blacks “niggers” in private, but Lyndon Johnson and Nixon (https://www.alternet.org/story/17422/the_nixon_tapes%2C_racism_and_the_republicans) did, and Ronald Reagan had quite a repertoire of black jokes. Hitler used the USA as his inspiration (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#hitler), and he was not an aberration so much as the logical conclusion of the Western mentality, and seeing how far he took it actually helped the USA (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#racism2) start shedding its racism and bigotry after World War II.

But, for all of that, Gary really went off on Jews late in his book, calling them devil-worshippers and other unflattering descriptions. But Gary emphasized that his focus was on Jewish mobsters, whom he called the “Mishpucka,” not so much the Jewish people. I have studied Holocaust Denier literature (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#holocaust), and to the uninitiated it can appear persuasive, and I could tell that Gary had drunk from that well of anti-Semitic disinformation; there is a great deal of that kind of “scholarship” out there. Heck, Ed’s bio at Wikipedia is outright disinformation today (par for the course at Wikipedia (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/105-My-Edward-Herman-biography-project/page4?p=1389&viewfull=1#post1389)), and he was Jewish, as death camp Nazis get whitewashes. Noam’s bio is only slightly better.

When I began my alternative media studies (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page7?p=739&viewfull=1#post739), I also subscribed to The Spotlight, taking in the entire spectrum, and I suppose that it is no surprise that a Spotlight reporter was the only author so far to feature Gary’s reporting of the Tower conversation, as the theme of Final Judgment (https://www.amazon.com/Final-Judgment-Missing-Assassination-Conspiracy/dp/0974548405) is that Jews, and Israel in particular, were behind the JFK hit. Again, I don’t really buy it. Jack Ruby’s involvement definitely shows Jewish mob involvement, but I doubt that they were the masterminds. I think that the plot within an insane covert op was hatched at the Rockefeller/CIA level, and that the cover-up was so successful that the spooks used political assassination (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit?p=1398&viewfull=1#post1398), with a “lone nut” patsy served up each time, for a generation, and those weren’t Jewish operations. No ethnic group has a monopoly on dark pather (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#serving) activities.

For me, getting too worked up about the Jewish mob (or any “bad guys (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gcfocus)”) is to miss the point, and is a hazard of being a cop. Gary’s life was wrecked by Jewish mobsters. On that issue, there is no doubt, and his mission to expose them, after they wrecked his life, was understandable. But I did not see any Jews among the gangsters in Ventura County (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#mr) who ruined my life. Gary was an old-time cop who believed in the ideal of law enforcement, and that with a properly functioning legal system, American society would become more just. That was really his driving motivation, and it is true that the Jewish mob has mastered invisibility, just like the Global Controllers (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/108-The-Global-Controllers?p=1167&viewfull=1#post1167) have. That is simply a professional requirement (and partly due to the Jewish journey (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#anti), when they had to hide their identities to survive), so that they can play their evil games of power, control, and theft on a grand scale. Jewish organized crime is a very understandable variation of ethnic criminal organizations, as they used their high intelligence (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#jewish) to make their plays, relying on the pen more than the sword. They certainly have no monopoly on those activities, but Gary’s efforts were understandable. I’ll have some more to say about Gary and the Jews, but that is enough for today.

Best,

Wade

In another forum…

Hi Michael (http://educationforum.ipbhost.com/topic/20494-bill-decker-and-john-tower/?do=findComment&comment=383977):

My previous post (http://educationforum.ipbhost.com/topic/20494-bill-decker-and-john-tower/?do=findComment&comment=383960) gets into Gary and the Jews a bit, and yes, he uses “Mishpucka,” which means “family,” in Yiddish, a great deal, in his book and elsewhere. They were his bête noir, for good reason, and I am sympathetic to the idea that he beat the word to death. :) When I finally finish this series of posts, I hope that a lot becomes clearer, especially for those who have not read his book. If they haven’t by now, they probably never will, as that book is fast disappearing from circulation.

E. Howard Hunt was a famous author by the 1940s (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E._Howard_Hunt#Author), writing the kind of stuff that Gary might have read. I don’t know how much Gary might have known about Hunt in December 1963 before Tower talked about him. Gary was friends with Decker and Murphy, so may have been quite privy to things that average Americans would not have been, even leaving aside his LA days. But with the story that Tower was telling, he would have most certainly been in circles to have known who Hunt was. Tower was thick with George Bush the First (who nominated him to be Secretary of Defense), and Bush was involved with the Bay of Pigs operation, which was Hunt’s fiasco. The story came from Tower, and by the time that Gary began drafting his book in the early 1970s, Hunt had become a household word. I think that your question is a good one, and don’t know all of the answers there.

I have long thought about Gary’s rendition of the Tower story, first written nearly a decade after the events, and have wondered how much might have been shaded in Gary’s mind by the subsequent years. Similarly, I doubt that much was publicly known about the CIA’s assassination attempts on Castro by then. A lot did not come out until much later. So, I think that there is room to question what Gary might have remembered and presented, but he surely did not fabricate the encounter, IMO. Gary eventually served Tower legal papers on the issue, and Tower looked like he swallowed his shoe. Gary waged endless lawsuits, to get evidence on the record. Even if I didn’t know him, doing that and making up a story like that does not make any sense. He wasn’t some guy whispering in corners. He was in their face.

As I have written, when Gary began trying to connect the dots and solve the crime, he did what so many have done, and I have stated my doubts about Gary’s dot-connecting. My opinion is that the mob was certainly involved, but they were likely working on behalf of the masterminds, something up the Rockefeller/CIA food chain. On that note, I like Rodney Stich’s account from Trenton Parker (http://educationforum.ipbhost.com/topic/16290-what-cia-pegasus-agent-trenton-parker-told-rodney-stich-in-1993/) of recordings of Hoover’s phone at the FBI, in which Johnson, Bush, and Rockefeller (Nelson, I would think) were discussing the JFK hit before it happened, and they said that Dulles would do his part. To me, that one smells pretty genuine. I have a lot of respect for Stich’s work. Like many of us, Stich could never have imagined how deep his work would take him, leading to a wrecked life, as usual. Larry McDonald, who had the tapes, died in the KAL 007 incident (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Larry_McDonald#Death). I have encountered lots of plane crashes like that, partly through Gary’s writings. Gary did not think that Tower’s (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Tower#Death) and Murphy’s (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audie_Murphy#Death_and_commemorations) plane crashes were accidents, or Heinz’s, who died (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Heinz#Death) the day before Tower did, and Gary was working with Tower and Heinz when they died. Lots of “coincidences” like that in this milieu.

I have stated plenty that some highly impressive JFK scholars have been in this forum, and I won’t be able to hold a candle to them on their breadth and depth of JFK knowledge. My best contribution to the JFK issue is just making Gary’s story as visible as I can. I have no doubt that Gary was telling it the best that he could. As far as other mobsters go, all I can say is that the LA crime scene was Gary’s world for many years, and those are the mobsters that he knew best. When he began naming names in Ventura County, that is when our paths began to greatly overlap.

Thanks for writing.

Best,

Hi:

I am going to begin to leave Gary’s LA days behind now and focus on Ventura County, which is the primary setting of Gary’s book. Gary’s career took him back and forth between LA and Ventura County. Ventura County is adjacent to LA, and is in a different world. LA was a big, ugly slab of asphalt, with air so thick with pollution that you could cut it with a knife, while Ventura County was largely rural, with some small and growing towns, famed beaches, and Ventura was the crown jewel of Ventura County and where I was raised from age 8 (when my father returned from his misadventure at NASA (http://ahealedplanet.net/paths.htm#oleary)) until I left home at 21. Ventura is the last mission town that Junípero Serra established in his lifetime, and I attended an elementary school named after him (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#serra). Serra was sainted in 2015 (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#saint), and in a way, his sainthood is emblematic of how our system operates. Serra was the Hitler of California, as his missions were actually concentration camps that resulted in the complete genocide of the coastal tribes of California, from San Francisco to San Diego. The only tribes with any survival fled to California’s interior.

As a teenager, even I could see what was going to happen to Ventura County. The groves were mowed down to put up housing tracts and the fields were paved over, as the hordes from LA spilled outward. I recall seeing a newspaper article that predicted that California’s coast would one day be a big city, stretching from San Diego to San Francisco, and called San San. That is well on its way to happening. My first job was salvaging the lumber from a walnut fam that was mowed down, and the local post office and an office building were among the structures erected on that land. I was the janitor of that office building (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#janitor1) several years later, as I studied business. The man who took my janitor job (I tried to give it to my retired father) when I left for the university was an Asian immigrant, and while he was the janitor at that office building, he became a millionaire by speculating in real estate. A janitor becoming a millionaire was a sign of the times in Ventura.

A few miles from my home was Wagon Wheel Junction, and I grew up at the bowling alley there, where my mother worked for many years. At Wagon Wheel was a restaurant where a local developer held court, named Martin Smith (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martin_V._Smith), called Bud Smith. He built the only office towers in Ventura County, near Wagon Wheel. Even before I left home, my father told me that people who crossed Smith simply disappeared. He was well-known to be a gangster. One of the funnier anecdotes in Gary’s book, at least to me, was when Gary was surveilling some of Mickey Cohen’s hoods and in walked Bud Smith, who sat down with them. Gary looked across the room and saw two people whom he recognized as DEA narcotics agents, and his partner talked with them. While Gary and his partner had been tailing Cohen’s men, the DEA agents were tailing Smith, who was a prime suspect for bringing in drug shipments through a local port, where my father worked during his career. Smith was too clever to be caught, however, and I never saw any newspaper coverage of him that wasn’t fawning and calling him a “philanthropist,” like that Wikipedia article does (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martin_V._Smith).

I live near Seattle today, and it is getting “Californicated” today, big time, as entire neighborhoods are getting bulldozed and high-density condos and the like are being put up, as we get to experience the “success” of Amazon and Microsoft, two predatory corporations. Seattle will be in compete gridlock soon, and I won’t be retiring here. I saw it happen to Ventura County, and now it is happening to the Seattle area, and California developers are leading the effort.

During the dot.com boom of the late 1990s, which was a mere prelude to what is happening today, as Seattle becomes unrecognizable, Bud Smith was up here, getting in on the action, building skyscrapers. I worked in one of them in Bellevue, when I worked for a software company, and the woman in the office next to mine had a husband who built skyscrapers (and they soon moved to Shanghai, where the big action was). I asked her one day if she knew who Bud Smith was, and she did: he had a glistening reputation as a straight-shooting businessman and philanthropist. I had to laugh. I am all too familiar with those kinds of “philanthropists (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#philanthropy1).” Being a “philanthropist,” or “liberal” judge whose conscience guided him (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harry_Pregerson), is a great cover for gangsters (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit?p=1399&viewfull=1#post1399).

A major theme in Gary’s book from his Ventura days was the real estate activity. The judges of Ventura County’s Superior Court ultimately controlled the situation, as many millions could be made on their rulings, and the gangster judges in Ventura County were Gary’s primary antagonists who ruined his life.

Another funny anecdote in Gary’s book was when he was contacted by a retired mobster from Chicago, and they had lunch together. In Gary’s book, you easily get the sense of the relationship between cops like Gary and mobsters. It is like a game of cat and mouse, and even almost one of mutual respect. Gary knew plenty of mobsters, and his job was putting them behind bars if he could, but he had to play by the rules of the game. He watched a mobster bludgeon another once, but Gary knew that with their code of omertá (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Omert%C3%A0), the bludgeoned mobster would never testify, so Gary could only watch. The mobster from Chicago retired to the fun and sun of California, and planned to dabble in real estate. As he began to get into the real estate game, he saw how the judges and others had the game completely rigged and under their control. The mobster marveled to Gary. The mob in Chicago never had it as sweet as the gangsters in Ventura County did.

Those judges in Ventura County were members of what Gary called the Mishpucka, as they were Jewish. Harry Pregerson (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harry_Pregerson) was a kingpin mobster judge who sat on a federal bench for nearly forty years, who made Gary’s life miserable, but the judges in Ventura County tried to have Gary killed (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#hit) when he thwarted their plans. But I get ahead of myself. Now, I will begin to show how Gary’s path and mine overlapped long before we met.

Best,

Wade

Thanks Michael (http://educationforum.ipbhost.com/topic/20494-bill-decker-and-john-tower/?do=findComment&comment=384002):

Yes indeed, what a coincidence (http://educationforum.ipbhost.com/topic/20494-bill-decker-and-john-tower/?do=findComment&comment=383994). Sometimes, an accident is just an accident, a murder is just a murder (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#portland), a heart attack is just a heart attack (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page11?p=847&viewfull=1#post847), and sometimes making a serial murderer your bunkmate (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#mistakes) is just how the bureaucratic chips fall, but my life has been filled with way too many “coincidences” like those for me to chalk them all up to random events. Yes, what are the odds of those two men dying a day apart? I remember when it happened (I had already been awakened (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=309&viewfull=1#post309) by that time), and it was five years before Gary published John Tower’s identity (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#tower). Back in 1991, I wondered what the truth was behind their “coincidental” deaths and what they may have had in common. Well, it turns out that they had a great deal in common. In Gary’s book, he went into a bit of detail on how plane crashes were “engineered” in Ventura County by the gangster judges to remove obstacles and “clean up” operations of witnesses and others who had outlived their usefulness. I have a lot to write about that subject, which is coming before long.

Hi:

I’ll get a little autobiographical in ways that I have not done before. My parents were born and raised in Bellingham (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bellingham,_Washington), Washington. My father’s IQ was about twice my mother’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/70-Distinguishing-the-wheat-from-the-chaff-and-my-life-s-journey?p=102&viewfull=1#post102), which is a situation never seen in today’s USA. He got the highest score in western Washington on the state’s high school math test, which earned him a full-boat scholarship to the University of Washington (UW) in 1954. But in those days, men were not legally emancipated until age 21, and my grandfather (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#kansas) engaged in his last act of petty tyranny with my father and forbade him to attend UW. My grandfather said that the university in Bellingham was “good enough” for my father, and because my father was only 18, my grandfather could make that edict stick. But there was one thing that my grandfather could not prevent: my father’s joining the Marine Corps. That was how he escaped home. He asked his girlfriend, whom he had known since age six, if she wanted to run off with him, and she did, and my parents were married on a weekend in Arizona (which did not have a waiting period to get married, like California did), while my father was in boot camp at Camp Pendleton (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marine_Corps_Base_Camp_Pendleton). He was soon shipped off to the Korean War, and in his last months as a marine, he was a boot camp drill instructor.

They moved back to Washington after his discharge, and then my father could go to UW, unencumbered by his father’s restrictions. He did it on the G.I. Bill (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G.I._Bill), worked as an automobile mechanic on Capitol Hill (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capitol_Hill_(Seattle)), and I was born the next year. He got a degree in electrical engineering, was about two classes short of also having a math degree, and before he graduated, he looked for work in Southern California, as he and my mother discovered year-round sunshine there and loved the laid-back California lifestyle. We moved there in March of 1963, and my father’s first job was at the naval station at Point Mugu (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naval_Air_Station_Point_Mugu). In his career’s second year, he worked at Port Hueneme (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naval_Construction_Battalion_Center_Port_Hueneme), where Bud Smith smuggled in his drugs (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit?p=1405&viewfull=1#post1405). His 160-170 IQ became very evident, he was an inventive genius, and a couple years after graduation, NASA recruited him into the Space Race, and we moved to Houston (http://ahealedplanet.net/paths.htm#oleary) in the summer of 1966.

When we moved to California, we first rented a small, three-bedroom house in Oxnard (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxnard,_California). It was a different era from today, in many ways. Just around the corner from our house lived Denny Lemaster (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Denny_Lemaster), who was a professional baseball player (one of whose claims to fame was giving up one of the two home runs that Sandy Koufax (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sandy_Koufax) ever hit; Koufax’s other was against Warren Spahn (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Warren_Spahn)). Imagine a major league player today living in some starter home. Back then, professional athletes usually worked a second job in the offseason, driving trucks, delivering mail, and the like. Several years later, in about 1970, I attended an event at a music store in Ventura, put on by Denny McLain. McLain was at the top of his game, having just won two Cy Young awards, an MVP award, and winning the World Series. He is likely the last pitcher who will ever win 30 games in a season, and he was a traveling salesman in the offseason (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Denny_McLain#The_high_life), selling organs (I grew up with a never-played organ in our living room). McLain got involved with gambling and mobsters, and went to prison. You would not see that scene today.

In that starter home in Oxnard, we formed lifelong friendships with neighbors, and I have many fond memories of that year in Oxnard, before we bought our first home in Camarillo (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camarillo,_California), but I have a stark memory of one event: seeing my mother watching JFK’s funeral on TV, as she seemed sick and grief-stricken. Little did I know how significant that event would become in my life.

After his misadventure at NASA (http://ahealedplanet.net/paths.htm#oleary), my father moved the family back to Ventura County, but the military took vengeance on him for forsaking the Space Race and refused to reimburse our cost of moving back to California, which was about a quarter of my father’s annual salary, which he was bitter about forever after. We moved into a new house in Ventura, where my father still lives, near Junípero Serra elementary school (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#serra), which I attended when it opened the year after we arrived. I won the school’s first spelling bee, a fourth grader beating the fifth and sixth graders. I was sent into Johnson’s Great Society gifted programs the next year. I was groomed to be a scientist from the time I could walk (http://ahealedplanet.net/paths.htm#bookworm).

Ventura is where I grew up, and most of my childhood friends came from that housing development, which was decidedly middle class, but it was a little odd by today’s standards. Engineers lived next door to butchers and auto mechanics. Mexican-Americans lived next to “rednecks” (which my father was) and Jews, while others were rather patrician, driving their Cadillacs. One memorable family kind of bridged the gap while I grew up, in which the children did increasingly well, wearing the most fashionable clothes as teenagers, while my wardrobe, all the way through college, was bought at the local swap meet. I rarely wore store-bought clothing. When my shoes wore holes in the soles at about age 12, my father made cardboard insoles for me to wear with those shoes. When I had my growing spurt, which began when I was 14, as I grew from five-foot one-inch to six-foot one inch in three years, my pants legs ended about halfway up my shins, and people made fun of me for years, until my parents finally decided to update my wardrobe at the swap meet.

And here is an early overlap with Gary’s story. I later discovered that those newly well-to-do neighbors had a reason for their wealth. That family’s father is named in Gary’s book as taking huge bribes to help frame people that the local gangsters wanted out of the way. Gary described the man as waving a briefcase full of cash (far more than his annual salary), telling Gary how easy the money was. Gary was made an “offer” to help them frame somebody. It was one of those offers that you are not supposed to refuse (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#make). When Gary refused to participate, he was framed instead, which ended his career in 1970, and his nightmare began.

As Gary’s wife once told me, Gary was a fighter, not a lover, and he did not take it lying down. He soon used his policeman and detective background to fight back, and thus began his adventures that form the bulk of his book, There’s a Fish in the Courthouse.

Those newly-wealthy neighbors are one of many overlaps that I have with Gary’s life, and I’ll get into a number of them in this series of posts.

Best,

Wade

I’m not sure that I would call that first one a book, and the author is disreputable, or so I hear.

Yes. I would not call the first one a book either, I would call it getting a renegade PhD 8)
A little more seriously everyone of those "books" is worth reading. There are only 3 books in that list, that you did not read Wade. (hint hint)

Hey, I have read a bit of Stallman’s work. I had to, before approaching him. I’ll get to your buddy Sen one day, and I’m sure that I’ll at least cite that disparity in Chinese and Indian death rates that Uncle Ed cited. On education, get me that in paper, and we’re talking, but that theme is already a pretty big one of mine. What is my site, if not education, even if by a renegade scholar?

Hi:

Another theme in Gary’s book was the drug trade. It was not just “philanthropist” developers such as Bud Smith (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit?p=1405&viewfull=1#post1405), but the Ventura County judges controlled the drug trade. During my days as a trucking company controller (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/83-My-days-in-the-trucking-industry?p=272&viewfull=1#post272), one of my colleagues used to be a narcotics officer in the military police, and one day I began to tell him of the drug trade in Ventura County and how the officials participated in it, and he replied, “That is how it works in every county. There is so much money to be made, that everybody who can has their hand in it.”

Over the course of my life, I have had known many people who knew about the seedier side of life, and their tales could be enlightening. One close pal knew a man who was a drug dealer in LA in the 1980s, during the cocaine boom that Gary Webb wrote about (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#webb), and one day the man got caught by the LA narcotics squad with his pants around his ankles. They raided him when he was in a room full of cocaine and $4 million in cash. When they busted him, they told him he had two choices: die, right then and there, or walk out of the room and never look back. He chose option number two, and there was never any news story about a big drug bust. A bunch of LA narcotics squad cops just got a little extra to tide them over. The corruption goes high and low, too, especially in Ventura County.

When my family lived in Camarillo (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit?p=1407&viewfull=1#post1407), we again lived in a middle-class neighborhood (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit?p=1407&viewfull=1#post1407) with its fair share of rural whites (AKA rednecks), one of whom lived across the street from us, and our families became close. The father, who was born and raised in Bakersfield (where a bunch of my redneck relatives live, as their patriarch, and my grandmother’s brother, landed there during the Dust Bowl (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#kansas)), knew many Ventura County sheriff’s deputies, from backgrounds like his. Not long after my company was raided (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#raid), when they stole our technical material (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#espionage), my father told me that when our neighbor visited his sheriff’s deputy pals, inside their homes were high-end furniture and appliances that far exceeded the station in life that those deputies could afford, and they admitted that their expensive accoutrements were obtained during raids on rich people. They just took what they wanted, under the color of law. It was standard practice in Ventura County. It was about then that I began to understand that Ventura County had long had a reputation as one of the most corrupt counties in the USA. In the years since then, I been told of, and have seen, several lists of police and judicial corruption in the USA, and I have seen Ventura County in the top five a number of times, and it has even been ranked number one, beating out cities such as Oakland and New Orleans. I remember when I was a teenager, I read about an FBI probe that exposed corruption in the Ventura City police, naming it the most corrupt police department in the USA, but that was all that I heard of while growing up. I would get both barrels of that corruption in 1988.

Mr. Professor (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#mr) was a pillar of the community, the most beloved instructor at the local college, and during our travails, he knew somebody who was involved in the drug trade in Ventura, and while his pal would not name names, he said that his drug-trade colleagues were very prominent members of the community. When Dennis was in the Ventura County jail, with his million dollar bail (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#jail), he began to understand how the system worked in Ventura County. Many of his inmates were in there for drug offences, but serving time was part of their career path. Everybody took a turn, and it was really a business, and the deputies and judges were all part of that system. Somebody had to do some time, to make the system look legitimate. It was all a big charade.

One of the more spectacular crimes in Ventura County’s history was the Lyman Smith murders. In recent months, investigators think that they have solved the crime (https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation-now/2018/04/28/golden-state-killer-murder-victims/560657002/), but I wonder at the coincidence of it. Smith had an airline that airlifted dairy cattle to the Shah’s Iran (http://earonsgsk.proboards.com/thread/61/lyman-smith), of all places. That kind of boondoggle operation could only happen with an American client regime (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#connection), and when the Shah was overthrown, Smith’s effort went bankrupt. In his book, Gary wrote that Smith’s silent partners in the operation were the Ventura County judges. Gary wrote that when the Shah was overthrown and Smith tried to maneuver and hold the operation together, he discovered that far from coming back to the USA empty, that their backhaul cargo was drugs, which were unloaded in Ventura County. Smith had no idea what was happening. The judges had maneuvered it so that they got the drug money and Smith got all the risk, if the operation was uncovered.

Gary wrote that when Smith finally realized how he had been used, he approached the judges and demanded a judgeship in compensation, as it was a license to print money in Ventura County. The judges agreed, but a few days later, Smith and his wife were murdered in their home. One judge’s fingerprints were found on Smith’s doorknob, and Gary wrote that they got there as the judge looked in on their handiwork, but gave the excuse that he was just going to see Smith to congratulate him. The Smith murders were only one of a number of untimely deaths in their circle, and mysterious plane crashes of craft that took off from the Santa Paula Airport (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Santa_Paula_Airport) were common, and Gary’s prime suspect was William Morgan Hetrick, a pilot who owned a plane repair shop and worked with the judges, and who offloaded those drugs from Smith’s planes. Gary wrote that Hetrick was likely the person rigging those planes to crash, and one judge who got in the way, who was a friend of Gary’s, Richard Heaton (http://educationforum.ipbhost.com/topic/2861-simulated-assassination-gone-awry/), died in a plane crash a few weeks after Smith did. A couple of years later, Hetrick was arrested with John DeLorean (https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/politics/1982/10/22/de-loreans-dealings-a-tangled-web/82248cfb-d785-4200-8523-677224829210/?noredirect=on&utm_term=.0fb1a548945e) in the infamous cocaine sting operation (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_DeLorean#Arrest_and_trial). Gary wrote that because Hetrick was a creature of the judges in Ventura County, that they would see to it that Hetrick never testified, because it could risk unraveling their entire operation, and Hetrick never did.

Gary wrote about a man who ran afoul of the judges later having his life threatened, and Smith’s name was invoked during the threats. So, was Smith’s untimely death an amazing “coincidence,” or was something else happening? I’ll likely never know, but I’ll file it away under “Isn’t that interesting?” A couple of years after Smith’s murder, I lived a couple of blocks away from his home where he was murdered, living with my mother and her new husband, before I moved to LA (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=406928&viewfull=1#post406928) and began my career. I wasn’t sure if I would ever do it, but I will now. My stepfather was the Vegas entertainer that I wrote about (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=912176&viewfull=1#post912176), and I am attaching his obituary. He was the Frank Sinatra sound-alike that I have written about, who told the funny story of living across the street from the mobster who ran Vegas. Fred played me the song on that Sinatra album that was really him singing. He also played a record of him drumming, and the record was like nothing that I had ever seen before. For those old enough to know, records were played by placing the needle on the outer edge, and it would travel the grooves until it reached the end in the inner circle. The record that Fred played me was the opposite: the record began on the inner groove and ended on the outer groove. When I expressed my amazement that the record worked that way, Fred said that it was normal for those kinds of records to be made by industry insiders. Compact Discs came out the same year, and records quickly became obsolete, but they are amazingly making a comeback today, in “retro” corners. Every day for months, I got home from work at the County Center to hear Fred playing that Big Band music, and I grew to like it. One playlist on my iPod is of Sinatra and friends, which I listen to regularly, thanks to Fred.

That neighborhood that we lived in, and Lyman Smith’s house, burned down in last year’s fire (https://www.vcreporter.com/2017/12/devastation-in-clearpoint-ondulando-neighborhoods/) (but the house that we lived in was miraculously spared), which was of record-setting size (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_Fire), to only be surpassed by one that is still burning (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mendocino_Complex_Fire) as I write this. But Global Warming is a myth (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/90-Global-Warming-Peak-Oil-and-related-topics?p=463&viewfull=1#post463). :)

Gary was right in the middle of many events that were part of my life, and after his career abruptly ended when he refused to take part in framing people, he became very politically active. The year after I met Gary, he ran for sheriff, and the county officials quickly passed a law to make Gary too old to run for office! He was younger than Trump and Hillary were when they ran for president a couple of years ago. Gary sent Dennis the ballot from that election that he was barred from running in, which I have also attached, as Dennis put it in his book, largely written from prison, The Alternative (https://www.amazon.com/Alternative-Dennis-Lee/dp/B0006RPHP0), which like Gary’s book is fast disappearing from circulation. Note that there was only one candidate for each office. Ventura County has a well-oiled political corruption machine.

I grew up next door to the family whose mother was the secretary of the man who became Ventura County’s District Attorney (DA). Before Dennis and I hit Ventura in 1987, my father told me that he had learned plenty about the DA (whose name is on that attached ballot) from our redneck neighbors over the years (that secretary’s mother was illiterate, hailing from the South, where that affliction was once common; she was the only illiterate American that I ever met), and that the man was a gangster. So, what happened to us was not entirely unexpected, and Southern California was the last place on Earth where I wanted to live, as I chased Dennis out to Boston (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=611&viewfull=1#post611), but my “friends (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#voice3)” had other plans in mind.

Best,

Wade

Hi:

In the western United States, if you get outside any urban area, the residents are largely rural whites, the kind who voted for George Bush and Trump, with American flags (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#flag) planted in every yard. Even the so-called western blue states are red state environments everywhere outside of the cities. It reflects who “settled (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#terrell)” the West. My ancestors (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#familyname) followed in the wake of the U.S. Army as the American Indian was dispossessed with fraudulent treaties (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#blueprint) and genocide (http://ahealedplanet.net/columbus.htm#genocide), and they marveled over how “providence” gave them that cheap, even free, land. My father’s family is half urban professional and half redneck. I was raised in a redneck environment, so much so that a younger brother, with an IQ of 75-80, I would guess, joined the Ku Klux Klan. That Bakersfield side of my family (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit?p=1408&viewfull=1#post1408) was redneck through and through. Even with the cousins of my generation, none of them graduated from high school, the women all got pregnant by about age 15, and the men usually spent time in prison for crimes such as armed robbery. The father of the Bakersfield family that I was closest to (he was married to my father’s cousin) was beaten to death outside of a pool hall by one of the LA gangs over his drug dealing, when he was about 60 years old. One of my redneck cousins murdered his infant son in a sensational event, and he is not the only murderer in my family.

Dennis was raised redneck, literally, as a migrant farmworker (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis?p=574&viewfull=1#post574). The term redneck (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#englishinvasion) came from the sunburn on the back of their necks from their stoop labor in the fields. Dennis was part of a wave of poor rural whites who took advantage of the postwar boom (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#boom) and escaped their roots, at least to a degree. Some of my best friends today were postwar escapees from their hollers. Dennis is a self-professed Christian fanatic, which reflects his migrant farmworker upbringing. So, rednecks are my people, and the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5) will lift them from their benighted condition, as it will all of humanity. Joe Bageant (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#boone) was Dennis’s age and also escaped the holler where he was raised, and later wrote quite perceptively about the situation of his people. The Third Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal3) is not so far away. Bageant wrote that rural America still has a foot in the Third Epoch, with each rural community dominated by a ruling class, not far removed from feudal lords, and Dennis encountered that when he returned home to Yakima (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis?p=592&viewfull=1#post592).

In the western USA’s big cities, you have a cosmopolitan urban core, where the professionals and elite live, usually with urban areas where the working class and poor live, and retail crime increases the more you stray from the professional/elite core. Members of the working class neighborhoods often commute to the professional/elite core and man the stores and other institutions that service the wealthy. American factory jobs have been getting moved to poor nations for many years, where environmental and labor laws are lax, even subfascist (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#connection), and Trump capitalized on that issue to win the presidency, while the Democratic Party largely abandoned its traditional base. When you get to the agricultural hinterlands, then you begin to see Mexican-American communities, as those people have replaced white migrant farmworkers like Dennis. They work in often-horrible conditions, raising and harvesting the USA’s food supply. I shop at a “progressive” grocery store (http://ahealedplanet.net/links.htm#pcc) that strives for “fair trade,” with properly compensated workers in the supply chain, nothing in the store was the result of animal experimentation, and the like, but for all of its effort, the world’s poor still produce that food, and homeless people beg in front of the store daily.

In Ventura, you had the middle class neighborhoods, where I was raised, and the elites lived on the hills overlooking Ventura. In the hinterland, Mexican-Americans lived, tending the groves and fields, which were increasingly mowed down. My best friend in grammar school, when we attended Junípero Serra school (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#serra), was the scion of the local nursery magnate, and they lived in a 100-year-old farmhouse, which was the center of the area 150 years ago, and I played on their grounds daily. My childhood home was on that former farm, but the farmhouse itself was mowed down several decades ago, and that family retreated to Santa Paula, where its empire’s headquarters are today. So, I grew up around Latinos, and they were my friends while growing up. Some were born in the USA, most were not, and some were here illegally.

A mile away from my childhood home was Saticoy (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saticoy,_California#History), named after an extinct Chumash tribelet, and it was like a sleepy Mexican village. A couple of miles in the other direction was Oxnard, named after white immigrants who built an agricultural empire based on beets (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxnard,_California#History), and Ventura was a mission town, founded by that pious padre (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#saint).

On the other side of Ventura was the “Avenue,” which is where Ventura’s poor lived, and the few blacks in Ventura. Further out was Oak View (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oak_View,_California), which was a redneck community when I grew up, which was where Gary lived, to give you an idea of Gary’s likely background.

Best,

Wade

In another forum...

Hi Ray (http://educationforum.ipbhost.com/topic/20494-bill-decker-and-john-tower/?do=findComment&comment=384223):

I am an American, and while the bulk of my work is scientific and historical, I try to keep it all in relatively close orbit to my experiences. Thanks for reading.

Hi Joe (http://educationforum.ipbhost.com/topic/20494-bill-decker-and-john-tower/?do=findComment&comment=384228):

Thanks for writing. I guess that I need to remind this forum that my writings on the JFK hit and Gary are a very small part of my writings. The JFK issue is only a paragraph (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#jfk) in what will likely be regarded as my lifetime’s magnum opus of several hundred pages of mainly science and history, recently called a “renegade PhD (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1240918&viewfull=1#post1240918)” curriculum by one of my students.

I consider my most important writings to be scientific (which is highly regarded by world authorities (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page6?p=738&viewfull=1#post738)), historical (also highly regarded (http://ahealedplanet.net/zinn.htm)), and a comprehensive view of the human potential (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#cognitive). I am currently the biographer of NASA’s most controversial astronaut (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog?p=284&viewfull=1#post284) and one of the greatest scholars of conscience that the USA has yet produced (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm), but my main game is helping the biggest event in the human journey manifest (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5), which I was in the middle of doing when we were wiped out, and Gary was instrumental in my springing my partner from jail (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#wean), in the biggest miracle that I ever witnessed. Gary will always be in my pantheon for that.

My work is multidisciplinary. As one of Bucky Fuller’s pupils (http://ahealedplanet.net/roots.htm#fuller) said, I am a comprehensivist, so I take it all in and digest it. This is the last time that I plan to write about Gary much, and I want to do the subject justice. I did it for Brian O’Leary (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm), I am about done doing it for Ed Herman (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/105-My-Edward-Herman-biography-project?p=1089&viewfull=1#post1089), and now I am doing it for Gary, and then I will resume my primary project (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir).

You see me being autobiographical, and you lived close enough to my home town so that you know that I am accurately depicting the region. That is kind of playing into the purpose of this string of posts, which is to make Gary as real as I can, and show why I have no doubt about his reporting of the John Tower conversation (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#tower). You can take it to the bank that he wrote about it as accurately as he could. Over the past generation, I have seen Gary called a Nazi and McCarthyite bigot, whose John Tower story is a “fairy tale,” while Audie Murphy was incredibly called a coward, and I have seen Gary accused of making up the Tower conversation to sell books. My writings on Gary are intended to help establish the reality and context of his writings about the Tower conversation, which, in my opinion, should be taken very seriously by the JFK researcher community. I have written plenty that I am merely a dabbler in the JFK hit, compared to others in this forum, who have spent their lives studying it. The Tower conversation was a small part of Gary’s book, but it understandably has become what he is best known for. I guess that I understand that, but the JFK hit was really a small part of what Gary was involved with.

You have seen me write accurately about that odd milieu in Southern California, and when I get to the good parts of these coming posts, you might take what I write seriously. I have stated many times that solving the crime of the JFK hit has never been my intention. My intention is to show how the official “investigation” and mainstream party line for more than 50 years have been completely fraudulent. Our system is not legitimate, but it is only one of degree for me, since JFK’s death. The USA has been a plutocracy ever since its richest citizen became its first president (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#washington), the favorite saying of the first Supreme Court Chief Justice (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Jay) was that the rich should run the nation (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#jay), and they do to this day. Our system is not worth believing in, IMO, which is a delusion that my students need to shake, if they are going to be useful for my effort. Otherwise, they invariably go straight down the well-worn paths of failure (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#approaches), and time is short for humanity. If we don’t begin to turn the corner in my lifetime, we may never turn it (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#spaceshipearth).

But now it is back to Gary. This series of posts will be over before long, this month, I would think. Then I will write about Ed some more, then off to my other work.

Thanks again for writing.

Best,

Wade

Hi:

After Gary’s career ended when he refused to take part in framing people, he made a living by buying a gas station, minimart, and bar, and he ran it. That became his retirement nest egg, and he put it in his wife’s name. He did not take his railroading lying down, and he fought back, waging lawsuits. He was a gadfly to the corruption machine that rolled along in Ventura County. They made him pay, and dearly, but he went down swinging. In the early 1970s, he began drafting his book between customers at the gas station, and his wife typed it up. It reminded me of how Dennis wrote his first book (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#quest), from his jail cell. They were slowed down enough to finally chronicle their adventures.

When we moved to Ventura from Houston in 1967, after my father’s misadventure at NASA (http://ahealedplanet.net/paths.htm#oleary), our house was new, built on that former farm, of which my best friend’s house was the last remnant. Our new housing development was surrounded by fields and lemon groves, which I saw get slowly mowed down and paved over during my childhood. Down Telephone Road (which I lived a couple of blocks from) toward the city center, I recall seeing the walnut groves get mowed down when I was about ten years old, with huge piles of stumps. Today’s Ventura County Center (https://www.google.com/maps/@34.2683119,-119.2121047,17z?hl=en) was one of the biggest construction projects west of the Mississippi when it was built, costing Ventura County’s taxpayers nearly $100 million, and it was built on those mowed-down groves, just a few miles from where I was raised. After my first post-graduate misadventure in Seattle (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#grad), I moved in with my mother and got a job at the County Center, as a water department accounting clerk, before I began my career in LA (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=406928&viewfull=1#post406928). My mother married Fred (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit?p=1408&viewfull=1#post1408) while I lived with her, and we moved from near the County Center to the elite hills overlooking it.

Building the County Center was a typical raping of the public. A Ventura County judge owned the company that built the County Center, in one of the spectacular conflicts of interest to be regularly found in Ventura County. Gary filed a lawsuit to challenge their scam, which held up the first $65 million of bonds being issued. Even though Gary’s lawsuit was quickly dismissed, he still had appeal rights…while he was alive. The weekend before his lawsuit held up the issuance of the revenue bonds, Gary came home one evening and two hit men tried to kill him in his front yard (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#hit), as a bullet intended for Gary blew off a limb next to his head. Gary’s policeman instincts saved him, and he returned fire as the car sped away. The official “investigation” said that it was somebody lighting off firecrackers, but on Monday, Gary got a very friendly call from the attorney trying to ram though the revenue bonds. When Gary did not play ball, then the threats came. Gary suddenly realized that if the hit men were successful, that those bonds would have sold without a hitch on Monday, as the lawsuit would be automatically dismissed if Gary was dead. The judges were playing hardball.

I am referring to the 1996 edition of Gary’s book as I write this, and it is falling apart in my hands. It was very cheaply printed, as was the first edition.

Some of Gary’s lawsuits ended up in Federal Court. Harry Pregerson (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit?p=1399&viewfull=1#post1399) intervened and dismissed one of Gary’s lawsuits with prejudice, which is a judicial irregularity never seen in normal courts, but was standard procedure in the Kangaroo Court environment of LA and Ventura County. Pregerson’s fraudulent machinations in those days caught Doug Caddy’s attention (http://educationforum.ipbhost.com/topic/20494-bill-decker-and-john-tower/?do=findComment&comment=319908). Gary later learned that the Ninth District Court of Appeals (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Court_of_Appeals_for_the_Ninth_Circuit), where Pregerson presided, was legendary in American legal circles as the most corrupt in the USA. I would discover that myself (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#disbar), the year after I met Gary.

The bar attached to the gas station had been in operation for decades, but when Gary owned it, suddenly it became a health hazard and the county refused to renew his beer license. Another name in Gary’s book was the father of one of my childhood friends, who is the only person that I keep in contact with from my Ventura childhood. That father used his position to deny the renewal of Gary’s license. When I read that so long ago, I was not sure what to make of it. I had played football with my friend’s father, and he seemed like a nice guy, but I have no doubt about Gary’s reporting. As I later learned, the little people down the food chain just follow orders, and that man’s participation in the effort to harry Gary was just another day at the office, and may have even been “innocently” presented to him. He lived only a couple of blocks away from those newly wealthy neighbors (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit?p=1407&viewfull=1#post1407).

Gary was such a gadfly that not only was the health department sicced on him, so was the fire department, and that was how they got Gary. They literally broke into his place of business and fabricated an extension-cord “violation.” A decade later, when I had my fateful meeting with Gary (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#wean), he told me that after they fabricated the “violation” and criminally prosecuted him, when the jury was formed, it was stacked with the relatives of firemen. When Gary saw that, he knew that he did not have a chance. He got probation, but it put him under their thumb. I would later witness the awesome corruption in Ventura’s probation department, in their reports on Dennis, as they recommended maintaining his astronomical bail (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#jail), justified with outright fairy tales about Dennis. I learned that they can just make it up as they go.

Gary was not shy; he named names. Dennis’s first attorney said that Gary’s book was a Who’s Who of Ventura County. I could spend many posts writing about the names in Gary’s book and my encounters with those names, but I don’t want this to stretch into a months-long process. Suffice it to say that there were many overlaps in our journey, long before we met, and during my years in Ventura with Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page4?p=652&viewfull=1#post652), when my life was ruined, I learned the stark truth of what Gary wrote about.

Wade

Thanks Michael (http://educationforum.ipbhost.com/topic/20494-bill-decker-and-john-tower/?do=findComment&comment=384281):

Gary mentioned Dragna a few times in his book, but Gary made the point that while the Italian mobsters in California made the news, Jewish mobsters such as Pregerson really had the power. The Jewish mob had a vested interest in keeping the public’s focus on the Italian mobsters, as a misdirection, so that Jewish mobsters could fly under the radar. Cohen was prominent, obviously, but Gary watched Cohen get pummeled by Jack O’Hara (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Whalen) over a debt. Omertá prevented Cohen from involving the authorities, but O’Hara later got one right between the eyes, courtesy of Cohen. Those kinds of spectacular activities were bad for business. Cohen was eventually imprisoned and nearly murdered in there (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mickey_Cohen#Later_years), as he was considered disposable by his Jewish mobster brethren. High-profile gangsters did not live too long, as a rule. Much better to operate in the shadows.

Hi:

As I thumbed through Gary’s crumbling book in recent days, something pretty funny happened. I wrote about Gary’s friendship with Richard Heaton (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit?p=1408&viewfull=1#post1408), who died in a plane crash a few weeks after Lyman Smith and his wife were murdered. Their friendship began when Gary was a patrol cop in Ventura in the 1950s, who regularly found a drunken Heaton “crapped out” in a doorway on Main Street in Ventura, early on Sunday mornings. Instead of arresting him for being drunk in public, Gary would shepherd Heaton home to his grateful wife. That was how Gary’s friendship began with Heaton. Once Heaton was appointed as a judge in 1956, he never took another drink.

When Lyman Smith and his wife were murdered, the DA was under pressure to convict somebody, anybody, for the crime and, about two years after Smith’s murder, they prosecuted a man whose company was bought by Smith. There simply was no case, and they tried to frame the man for the murders, but it didn’t work, partly because of the tenacious defense attorney. When the DA’s case fell apart (they never established a motive, among other issues), the DA had to settle for convicting the man in the local newspaper, saying that his guilt was certain but unprovable.

About fifteen years after those events, I published the first version of what became my site today, before I hired a professional editor. Between 1996 and 2002, I had a near-continual presence on the Internet with my site (I did not have one between April 1997 and late 1998, as I recall), with my email address on my site, and I took on all comers. I have quite a few pals today that I met through having my email address on my site back then, before I finally had to take it down (http://ahealedplanet.net/critics.htm#troll). But in those early days of Internet innocence, a man contacted me a couple of years before I published my account of Gary and the JFK hit (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#wean). He was a retired policeman who worked in Ventura when Gary did. He actually witnessed one of the events that Gary wrote about in his book, an outrageous event outside of a courtroom, and the man corroborated Gary’s account. That retired policeman actually came to visit me in 1999, and here is the funny part.

That attorney for the defendant in the Lyman Smith murder trial was known in Ventura as the “maverick” attorney who took on the Ventura County establishment, being a gadfly who defended pariahs. He once sued Ventura County’s officials for illegally seizing his gun collection, and he won the case. That maverick attorney became Dennis’s first attorney after he was arrested (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#jail). That retired policeman did not come to me because of my Ventura days, but because of my other writings. He just happened to have also worked in Ventura during his career. When we corresponded, that maverick defense attorney came up, and that retired policeman told me a story about him. As he patrolled Main Street early one Sunday morning, around the 1960s, he found that maverick attorney “crapped out” in a doorway, drunken from his Saturday night binge, and like Gary, he gently shepherded that attorney to his home. It was almost the exact same story that Gary wrote about with Heaton. It seems that Ventura’s Main Street was where lawyers ended up, crapped out, after a night drinking. :)

Wade

Hi Joe (http://educationforum.ipbhost.com/topic/20494-bill-decker-and-john-tower/?do=findComment&comment=384304):

As I have written (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit?p=1398&viewfull=1#post1398), Gary’s career and life is the closest thing to the plot of LA Confidential that I know of. One of my college chums became the mayor of Bishop, California. After his Vietnam days, he became a ranger in the Sierras, and was with me on that trip where we were nearly hit by lightning (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#bishop). He later said that that was the hairiest trip that he ever took, and only years later did I realize how close I came to getting us killed, and not from the lightning, but navigating the snowfields below the pass, where one slip meant a grim death after a several hundred foot fall. Ah, such youthful ignorance! :)

Bishop is the “metropolis” of Owens Valley (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Owens_Valley), which has been drained dry to provide LA’s water. The theme of Chinatown (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinatown_(1974_film)) is how LA got those water rights. Bishop is legally prevented from ever growing, as all the land around it is owned by various governments, and LA’s water rights have the highest priority. My friend told me that when LA was buying up the rights to Owens Valley’s water, that people who got in the way in Bishop met untimely demises, in one-car “accidents” and the like. The theme of Chinatown was all too real.

Unlike in Hollywood movies, Gary’s story did not have a happy ending, with his vindication and the “bad guys” brought to justice. He died destitute, in exile, in Oregon, with an arrest warrant for his wife, as the Ventura County gangsters stole his gas station and store from him, and that story will come before I finish this string.

Another college chum became Ventura’s mayor, and that is another story.

Best,

Wade

Yes, indeed, I will stray from Stallman. :)

You should read Stallman one day and seriously think about what I wrote about monopolies of knowledge... one day.. some day but not before you update your big essay. Those issues can wait.

For your big essay update I would like you to read the following books
1) Education first! From Martin Luther to sustainable development
2) Hunger and Public Action by Amartya Sen and Jean Dreze
3) The Evolution of Childhood by Melvin Konner

I will send you 1) above, it is going to take time, meanwhile you own the other two books 8)

Hi Krishna:

I have already read plenty of Stallman’s work. I understand the gist of it. I don’t know anybody who writes like I do on the monopoly of knowledge of free energy, antigravity, and related topics. That is the monopoly of knowledge that humanity is going to sink or swim on. Drèze and Sen will get a brief mention in my essay update, but transitioning Third Epoch peasants into the Fourth is not a focus of my essay, other than showing how non-pristine events can happen. There is not enough fossil fuel energy on Earth for everybody on Earth to industrialize, particularly with the side-effects (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#spaceshipearth).

The transition to the Third from the Second happened pristinely at least twice (1 (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#kebaran), 2 (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#mesoamerica)), and the similarities are remarkable. There was only one pristine instance (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#uk) of going from the Third to Fourth, and there will be only pristine instance of going to the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ideal); once one gets over the hump, the rest will follow, nearly instantaneously.

The Evolution of Childhood is a tome, and it looks interesting and relevant, so I plan to get through it, and we’ll see if any of it gets into my essay update.

Hi:

I am taking a little break from Gary’s tale (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit?p=1398&viewfull=1#post1398) this morning. I have read several books on Operation Paperclip and how the USA hired death camp Nazis. I have read too much about the Nazis. :) Two books that I recently read were Linda Hunt’s classic treatment (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0312055102/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_hsch_vapi_taft_p1_i0) and Annie Jacobsen’s (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00BAXFBI2/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_hsch_vapi_taft_p1_i0), which was better than I thought it would be. I am always wary about books blurbed by The Wall Street Journal. :)

I first wrote about Paperclip a generation ago, regarding how the Gehlen Org (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#gehlen) was hired lock, stock, and barrel by the CIA, which nearly led to World War III. Gehlen was paid $1 million per year by the USA in his heyday, which was far better than he did under Hitler. The USA has long had a habit of taking the worst aspects of enemy regimes and then using them for the same and even worse activities, such as at Abu Ghraib (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abu_Ghraib_prison). What became Camp King was a Nazi interrogation center for captured Allied soldiers. After the war, Gehlen ran it, and torturing prisoners to death under American management was just a day at the office there. Of course, the Wikipedia article (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camp_King) is a heavily sanitized account that does not even mention those activities. Where death camp Nazis are concerned, Wikipedia is hagiographic at times, and always covers the topic lightly, if at all, such as in its Paperclip article (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Paperclip). What Wikipedia has almost completely failed to do was deal with the American incentive to bring in death camp Nazis because of their usefulness for the Cold War, which those Nazis were instrumental in inflaming.

While war crimes investigators were lining up death camp Nazis, who performed medical experiments in the death camps, for Nuremberg trials (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doctors%27_trial), the Paperclip side of the house was doing all that it could to undermine those very prosecutions, and even when convicted, death camp Nazis soon had their sentences commuted and were even brought into the USA (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hermann_Becker-Freyseng#Trial_and_work_with_the_USA) and put to work. The most useful ones were never even prosecuted, such as Hubertus Strughold (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#haber1), who lied his ass off but was shielded by his American handlers. He was able to help get his buddy Siegfried Ruff acquitted. Ruff supervised the experiments at Dachau, in which hundreds of prisoners died. The USA then hired Ruff, and his article at Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siegfried_Ruff) is hagiographic. At least one death camp Nazi had the situation mentioned (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kurt_Blome#Postwar_activities_and_employment_by_the_United_States), in that he was saved from the gallows by the USA because they found him useful, but that is about it for those people.

I also found myself rereading other books in my library, such as Undue Risk (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00CUFD690/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_hsch_vapi_tkin_p1_i0) and In the Name of Science (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004YES8TI/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_hsch_vapi_taft_p1_i0), and what richly came across was that Nazi medical ethics were quite compatible with American medical ethics, and human experiments on unwitting, deceived, and involuntary subjects became an American pastime, particularly after hiring all of those Nazis. It is debatable how much Nazi ethics influenced American ethics, but there is no doubt that the Nazis who came to the USA began performing the same experiments that they used on death camp prisoners on American soldiers and others. The soldiers were only semi-voluntary, many had their health ruined and even died, and mass experiments on the unwitting American population were common.

What also has come across very strongly during my studies over the past 30 years is that what has come to public awareness is only the tip of the iceberg. The most damning documents are still classified or were destroyed long ago, and the Nazis were very aware of the nature of their crimes, as their documents were full of euphemisms such as “special handling” and “final solution.” The medical experiments on humans wrote about the subjects as “pigs,” and a “large pig” meant a Catholic priest. After the Nazi disaster at Stalingrad, thinking Germans could see how the war would turn out, and they began covering up their crimes, with destroyed evidence and documents, going back to early 1943. What has come to light are only the tattered remnants, and the human experiments at Strughold’s facility (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hubertus_Strughold#Evidence_of_experimentation_on_Dachau_inmates_and_epileptic_children) only came to light recently, almost by accident, as some documents escaped destruction.

And those are not just tales of a bygone era. Fluoride is added to my water supply to this day, which the Nazis used to dumb down their prisoners (http://ahealedplanet.net/fluoride.htm#perkins). In the USA, it is used on the general population (http://ahealedplanet.net/fluoride.htm#compulsory), with attendant propaganda that would make Goebbels blush. In fact, the fluoridation propaganda campaign was designed by none other than the father of public relations (http://ahealedplanet.net/fluoride.htm#bernays), whose work Goebbels admired and used.

Not that writing Gary’s story and my relationship to him is very fun, either, but I think that I am through with this stint of reading about death camp Nazis that the USA hired. When I write that essay on Uncle Ed and me, I will mention the Nazi situation, in which death camp Nazis get hagiography at Wikipedia, while Ed’s article is libelous (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/105-My-Edward-Herman-biography-project/page4?p=1389&viewfull=1#post1389), and my contributions were erased under the flimsiest of pretexts, so that the public could not even see what I wrote. So far, those vastly disparate treatments reflect Ed and Noam’s propaganda model (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#manufacturing). In a way, Wikipedia is performing as expected, as an establishment mouthpiece, as death camp Nazis get hagiography and saints such as Ed get libeled.

Wade

... the monopoly of knowledge of free energy, antigravity, and related topics. That is the monopoly of knowledge that humanity is going to sink or swim on.
:thumbsup:

... and the nature of evil, such as Stefan Verstappen rambles on about in the video that Star Tsar posted here: http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?3596-Up-At-The-Ranch-And-Beyond&p=1242190&viewfull=1#post1242190

The posted summary is sufficient to convey a wisp of what I'm getting on about here:

James Iandoli & Frank Stalter interview Mr Stefan Verstappen to answer theses questions can humanity become an advanced species after letting psychopaths run things for so long? & What might ET think of these psychopaths who run our world?
My take:

The more complex mental/spiritual life of humans, relative to other life we are commonly aware of on this planet, provides another "self-organizing layer", with its own rules, orderings and illnesses. Human civilization is one manifestation of that additional layer. We (humanity) suffer from a serious and long standing illness (illnesses?) in that layer.

Just as patients with infectious, potentially fatal, diseases are isolated, for the protection of others, so I imagine that humanity is isolated, by the higher intelligent beings in the universe, until we either get our sh*t together a bit better, or blow ourselves up real good trying.
So - we need to replace the physics of the last century with a more accurate physics, that unleashes such energy and propulsion, and we need to heal.

ThePythonicCow

... or blow ourselves up real good trying.
If the asteroid belt can be entered into evidence, then we might conclude that it wasn't the first time we did this.

ThePythonicCow

15th August 2018, 22:39

... and we need to heal.
Perhaps that hints at a serious impediment to our healing ... we don't know what's sick.

We try to identify which sick sociopathic individuals, or secret societies, or powerful families, or particular races or creeds, or bad aliens, are at the root of the evil that so clearly infects our human civilization.

Humanity, and likely other intelligent beings of sufficient mental, spiritual, and manipulative powers, form another self-organizing layer, larger than the individual, spanning centuries and continents, spanning nations and races, that, like any self-organizing layer, can have its diseases, its ways of common malfunction.

In my thread Banksters of Babylon, Merchants of Venice, and Elders of Zion (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?103656-Banksters-of-Babylon-Merchants-of-Venice-and-Elders-of-Zion), I try to identify these evils with the "people without a nation", the merchants and money changers of the world. Now I'm thinking that, like so many before me, I might have been missing the big picture.

If human civilization was sick, as I am postulating here, then those who

(1) work across the various elements (tribes, nations, ...) of human civlization,
(2) work in that higher self-organizing layer that no (publicly recognized) life form on this planet has formed other than humans,
(3) work in this layer, such as the merchants and money changers of the world,
would be more closely associated with this sickness of our civilization, as opposed to those who are focused on tilling their own little plot of land.

Humanity is sick. We could arrest ten thousand of the most powerful psychopaths, disband the hundred most evil secret societies, unleash the physics and technology that you, Wade, envision, and completely restructure the military, financial, political and intelligence agencies and corporations in a genuinely altrustic manner ... such would be awesome ... but such would only be promising signs and essential components of humanity's becoming a healthy civilization.

Humanity is sick. We need to heal. But first we have to recognize what's sick ... that self-organizing layer that only I, with my rather odd-ball "It's self-organizing layers, all the way down, and up." philosophy, seem to recognize.

===

P.S. -- Ah, perhaps one of your observations, Wade, is that limited energy is a primary cause of humanity's illness. We end up fighting amongst ourselves for the powerful leverage that more wood, coal, petro or uranium might provide. So the wider availability of practically unlimited energy might be a major catalyst for our healing (so long as we don't blow ourselves up real good, in the process.)

Hi Wade (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/member.php?2161-Wade-Frazier)

Sorry for the delay in responding.

Basically, these "channeling" talk about almost everything. For me it's a confirmation of what your job 'stands for'.It has many practical advice to save the planet, including the extraterrestrial intervention (which many insiders and whistleblower argue).

Preparing for the Future (https://www.newmessage.org/the-message/volume-3/living-way-knowledge/preparing-for-the-future)

What the channeling suggests is a spiritual perspective, without ideology, without beliefs, without blind faith, without theory and without rituals.
I think these texts answer some doubts.

I don’t know anybody who writes like I do on the monopoly of knowledge of free energy, antigravity, and related topics. That is the monopoly of knowledge that humanity is going to sink or swim on.

I never thought of it that way. I guess that's true, what is censorship, propaganda if not monopolies of knowledge, it is a way to steer people from something or away from something using intangible means. It gets tangible when those intangible means don't work.

there will be only pristine instance of going to the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ideal); once one gets over the hump, the rest will follow, nearly instantaneously.

Waiting for it, and trying to do my part, even though I still have great difficulty believing in FE. Of course I understand that FE leads to the fithh epoch and all that follows, that part is clear.

The Evolution of Childhood is a tome, and it looks interesting and relevant, so I plan to get through it, and we’ll see if any of it gets into my essay update.

It is an interesting book, which goes with readings in Anthropology, Evolutionary behaviour and commonalities between the human link and the Pan (bonobo/chimp) line.

Drèze and Sen will get a brief mention in my essay update, but transitioning Third Epoch peasants into the Fourth is not a focus of my essay, other than showing how non-pristine events can happen.

The reason to read is not just to learn about the transition from the Third to the Fourth epoch which is interesting but only of minor importance to your essay. The more important reason is that this is the closest that I came to understanding the why and the how of "India’s excess deaths under British hegemony (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#_ednref868) have been estimated at nearly two billion. (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#_edn868)"

The same comparison that Jean Dreze uses between China and India can be used to assess mortality between (British) India and Britain. I have confidence in those estimates because I read Hunger and Public Action.

Wade, as your student, as a minor collaborator, and as a friend I request you to read the books "Hunger and Public Action" and "Education First!" before you update the essay. It may turn out that you wasted your time. Even so, do this as a favor to a friend.

Hi Paul (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1242200&viewfull=1#post1242200):

These are subjects that I have written on plenty. I am not so sure that I would call humanity sick, but becoming truly sentient is no mean trick. The dark path (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#serving) is a valid one, and yes, our political-economy has favored psychopaths since the dawn of civilization (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#pristine1), but it did not always, and won’t in the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5). Their games will no longer make sense, and nobody not a psychopath will want to play with them. You can’t coerce a billionaire with the usual carrots and sticks, and everybody on Earth will be richer than Bill Gates, just as the average American is richer than humanity’s richest person of three centuries ago. The GCs (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc) know exactly what I am writing about, and they have done what they could to prevent the Fifth Epoch from manifesting and keeping their evil games going.

I am all for a peaceful and harmless transition (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#peacekeeping) into the Fifth Epoch, and today’s leading minds in science can’t even dream of what science in the Fifth Epoch will be like. I am into data, not theory so much, and I know that the means to the Fifth Epoch are already here (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#underground). I have always said that the key issues are not those of technology, but of integrity (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page6?p=708&viewfull=1#post708) and sentience (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#sentience1), but humanity won’t begin to awaken until the new Epoch arrives (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#brink). It has always been this way (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#imagine), and I see no reason why it won’t be that way this time. It won’t take very many to make it happen, but they have to be awake (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=309&viewfull=1#post309) and be on the light path (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=308&viewfull=1#post308). Those are absolute requirements for an effort like mine (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir), and those people are going be very few and far between (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialcircle). Those are just the numbers (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#judge1). In a world of scarcity and fear (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#coming), virtually nobody will heal, but in a world abundance, most will. Not much healing happened at Auschwitz. Big subjects, and I write about them plenty.

In my opinion, finding the “bad guys (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gcfocus)” is just symptom-hunting, like the orthodox cancer paradigm (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#racket). Neutralizing the bad guys won’t work, neither will playing the exchange game (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#exchange), trying to make it fairer, etc. Those approaches all miss the mark.

I think that the evidence is very convincing that the asteroid belt is a remnant of planetary formation, not the remnant of a former planet, especially one that exploded recently. Those asteroids are about as old as our solar system. That “exploded planet” hypothesis is popular in various fringe circles, but I don’t consider it valid today, just like I don’t consider Velikovsky’s work (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#velikovsky) valid. The current evidence is that the solar system formed much more rapidly and violently than the standard hypothesis that prevailed for generations, and the asteroid belt looks more and more like the remnants of that violent phase, which may have only lasted a few million years. I’ll follow that probe going to that pure metal asteroid, and will be interested in the data that comes from it.

Hi Invictos (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1242244&viewfull=1#post1242244):

Krishna, I have Hunger and Public Action and will read it, and get me that other, and we're talking. OK, it convinced you on the 2 billion excess deaths. I don't need to read Hunger and Public Action to understand that. The way that I see it, India was under the West's "tutelage" longer than China was, which explains most of it.

Hi:

Growing up in Ventura, close to LA, meant that I regularly encountered celebrities. I never treated them like one and left them alone, which I do to this day (http://ahealedplanet.net/lessons.htm#gates). The only autograph that I have I didn’t even collect. A commercial was shot in our neighborhood when I was about ten, I was sick in bed that day, and my brother brought home an autograph from this actor (https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0283891/?ref_=nmbio_bio_nm), who was in that commercial. Oak View, where Gary lived (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit?p=1409&viewfull=1#post1409), is on the way to Ojai from Ventura. My family often went there to various parks while I grew up, especially Camp Comfort (https://www.ventura.org/parks-department/inland-parks/camp-comfort-ojai/).

While I was a golden boy from birth, my younger brother was the opposite, getting into trouble from infancy, and by the end of grade school, my parents were desperately trying to turn him around, which included sending him one summer to a military academy. They seriously considered moving to Ojai, to a house on a few acres of grapefruit trees, as a way to help my brother. Ojai is kind of a New Age elite enclave today, and it has been that way for a long time. For his seventh grade year, they sent my brother to Ojai Valley School (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ojai_Valley_School), which was a complete failure, as my brother got his worst grades ever, even failing one class, and he is more intelligent than I am (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/70-Distinguishing-the-wheat-from-the-chaff-and-my-life-s-journey?p=102&viewfull=1#post102). He soon graduated to criminal activity. At Ojai Valley School, my brother attended with the children of Hollywood celebrities, such as Christian Brando (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christian_Brando) and one of the Fonda progeny, as I recall. My brother and Christian were fellow screw-ups, and that year, Marlon (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marlon_Brando) tried to be the dutiful parent. My brother and Christian were on the school soccer team, and Marlon came to a match and played soccer with them.

I acted while in high school, and my acting pals tried to make it in Hollywood. None of them made it, although one became a minor playwright who still writes plays performed in Ventura County. When I lived in LA after college (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=406928&viewfull=1#post406928), half of my friends were either in entertainment, tried to break in, or had been in, as actors, writers, musicians, directors, producers, and the like. Some made it. One relative worked on the special effects for Disney’s 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/20,000_Leagues_Under_the_Sea_(1954_film)), and this man (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jerry_Finn) grew up two doors away from my home, and I babysat him when he was young. It was like if you grew up in a fishing village, you would likely become a fisherman. In the hinterland of LA, going into entertainment was just a normal career path. For everybody who becomes a star, thousands toil in anonymity. I sometimes helped support friends who tried to make it in Hollywood, including my roommate when I met Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=611&viewfull=1#post611), and some pals went into the seedier side of LA and worked in porn for a while, including a woman whom I sat at the same table with in a high school class, who was in a porn magazine a couple of years after graduation, which created a sensation among my friends. One close childhood friend attended UCLA and encountered celebrities daily, even serving them at his various jobs.

When I lived with Fred (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit?p=1408&viewfull=1#post1408), one of his washed out Hollywood actor friends slept on our living room couch for a few weeks and spent his days getting drunk at those same establishments where those crapped-out attorneys did (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit?p=1413&viewfull=1#post1413), on Main Street. His claim to fame was acting with Streisand in one of her “Funny (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Funny_Girl_(film))” movies. While he lived with us, be got arrested for drunk driving, and the next day, he drove to one of those bars to drown his sorrows, calling Fred from the bar. Fred could hardly believe it. The man was going to drive to our place, drunk, after being jailed for drunk driving the day before. Fred himself never shook the bottle and Vegas lifestyle, which led to his early death.

Gary’s days in LA dealt with the Hollywood scene daily, and it was a deeply dysfunctional culture. One Hollywood friend was at a party with Billy Joel (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Billy_Joel) and his wife at the time, Christy Brinkley (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christie_Brinkley). While Christie was in the front of the house, talking with the others, Billy was in a back bedroom, doing cocaine, and Christie was visibly distressed. Joel soon moved from LA back home to New York, saying that the LA lifestyle was wrecking his life. In many ways, LA was a very unhealthy place to live, but it was pretty big time, professionally. Downtown LA was the biggest business district west of the Mississippi and the heart of California’s economy, which is one of the world’s largest and where my career began. Ventura was kind of out in the sticks, and not nearly as professional. While LA could be incredibly corrupt, such as Harry Pregerson’s tenure (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit?p=1399&viewfull=1#post1399), it at least had a professional veneer. In Ventura, that veneer could be thin indeed, I saw previews of that before I left home, and I’ll finish with one last anecdote.

During my last year at home, I was the janitor of an office building built on the land of that former walnut farm (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit?p=1405&viewfull=1#post1405), which I salvaged the lumber from in my first job. The tenants were primarily lawyers, accountants, and investment advisors. I was in my early business studies (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#janitor1), and I eagerly read the Wall Street Journal and other business periodicals as I threw them out. I got the job through a childhood friend, whose father was the managing partner of the law firm that owned the building. One new attorney had just come from the Ventura County DA’s office. The DA’s office hired graduates from the local one-building law school, which was really a mill to pump out people who could pass the bar exam (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#mill), but whose professional grooming was nil. My wife’s brother went to the same junior college that I did, and ran for the same coach as I did (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page4?p=466&viewfull=1#post466). He attended Harvard Law with the Obamas (Barack was the ultimate political animal, while nobody liked Michelle much), and told my wife that the DA’s office in Ventura preferred graduates of that one-building law school.

That new lawyer at the law firm was a Berkeley graduate, however, so presumably had a better education. He eventually became a prominent judge in Nevada. I just looked up his résumé, and he completely left out his Ventura days, which I can understand. Lawyers are notoriously late adopters of technology, and that law firm had a substantial law library. Law libraries had to be continually updated, and some reference materials had binders in which the pages could be replaced, but often the entire book had to be replaced, and I threw out law books almost daily, which could be impressive-looking tomes. I was friendly with all of the attorneys and staff, and that new attorney worked late in his office sometimes. His office was spartan, with a largely empty bookcase on the wall across from his desk, which sat behind the chairs where his clients sat. One day, that attorney asked me to fill the shelves of his empty bookcase with any impressive-looking law books that I was hrowing away. So, over the next several weeks, I did. I don’t recall thinking at time how bush league that it was, as I had no frame of reference, but I have to laugh at that today. It was like in The Great Gatsby, where books were just for show (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#janitor). As I look back, that was an early preview and warning of what happened when my free energy efforts landed me back in my home town, where my life was wrecked (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#mr).

Best,

Wade

I am not so sure that I would call humanity sick, but becoming truly sentient is no mean trick.
By any common meaning of the word humanity, I too would be reluctant to call humanity sick.

I was twisting the word humanity to refer to the self organizing layer of collective activity that is also seen to manifest as what we call human civilization.

Hi Paul (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1242389&viewfull=1#post1242389):

One of my favorite sayings is that none of us are as stupid as what we can collectively achieve. :) All the time, in my life, I look around me and say to myself, “And we call it civilization.” Humans are social creatures, and our sociality has always been an adaptive response to our economic situation, which has always been based on our energy surplus. This goes back to the beginnings of social animals (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialreason). That is why thinking that we can create some new sociality and go make free energy happen (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/96-Human-sociality-and-free-energy?p=925&viewfull=1#post925) is nonsensical, but naïve newcomers invariably advocate it. That is why all mass movement attempts (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level10) have failed. Sociality is self-serving, at its root, and self-serving attempts are effortlessly defeated (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#approaches), and usually defeat themselves. The new sociality will be a result, not a cause, of free energy. My effort has nothing to do with sociality, but with combined positive intention (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gcfocus).

To Krishna’s latest (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1242252&viewfull=1#post1242252), I’ll put on my list of things to do how to get from disbelief to belief to knowledge. You can’t get there by books, surfing the Internet, in the lecture hall, or even hanging out with me. You have to get out of your easy chair and seek experience, which is the only teacher. My fellow travelers and I only got to where we went by experience. Fortunately, I have not had to survive murder attempts, like Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#mistakes), Brian (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#attack), and Greer (http://ahealedplanet.net/journey.htm#adamiak) did. The choir (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir) needs to come to at least a place of belief, if they can’t get to knowledge. This is all part of the conundrum (http://ahealedplanet.net/conun.htm#summary).

To briefly revisit the Uncle Ed situation (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/105-My-Edward-Herman-biography-project?p=1089&viewfull=1#post1089), the editors at Wikipedia are not only dishonest, but staggeringly incompetent. When the propaganda model section (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_S._Herman#Propaganda_model) was added to Ed’s bio, the edit named only four filters but properly said there were five. The propaganda model article shows the five, but Ed’s bio left out flak and the enforcers (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propaganda_model#Flak). Instead of adding flak, the most recent editor decided to change the number to four filters. Incredible. My efforts at the Wiki family have not been a total bust. It looks like they are not going to erase my contributions to the CRV article, including, for the first time at Wikipedia, Noam and Ed’s framework of classifying bloodbaths (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Counter-Revolutionary_Violence:_Bloodbaths_in_Fact_%26_Propaganda#Contents), and I at least got to expose the fraudulence of the most active editor of Ed’s article (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Edward_S._Herman#Philip_Cross%E2%80%99s_edits), whom Wikipedia’s neo-con co-founder has openly defended, which explains plenty about Wikipedia. With all of the libel directed Ed’s way at Wikipedia, I most wanted to at least have his voice heard, and I have been able to do that at his Wikiquote page (https://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Edward_S._Herman), which is all my work so far. That will likely have to do, until a professional biographer takes on Ed’s life, as I expect somebody to do with Brian one day, especially if free energy happens.

Best,

Wade

One of my favorite sayings is that none of us are as stupid as we can achieve collectively. :)
Yes, indeed.

All of us are quite familiar with products that were apparently "designed by a committee", and those of us who have had the pleasure of being on the creation side of such products have seen how the sausage is made. Committees are not a shining example of human creative genius.

There is not a word for the self-organizing layer that I figure has formed on top of our civilization, nor is there a common concept for it. So any words I borrow from the common vernacular, such as "humanity" or "civilization", are misused or misleading in the purpose I put them to.

I will remain careful not to try to tell any licensed shrink that "I'm the only one who gets it", lest they lock me up in some loony bin.

Carry on, Wade. Never mind this crazy cow.

Hi Ernie:

I am of Michael’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#michael) persuasion on this issue: in physical reality, there are no guarantees. :) I also try to keep a historian’s and scientist’s sense of contingency. What the future holds is up to what we do. I don’t know if we will make it or not. So far, not many are trying to right the ship. Most are just along for the ride, but it won’t take many (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#numbers), either.

Hi Paul:

I get it. I had to invent Global Controllers (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc), Epochal Event (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal1), and other neologisms, to try to get across the ideas. Good luck on describing that self-organizing layer. :)

Hi:

When I have seen Gary called names and accused of making up his John Tower conversation (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#tower), I knew that the writers had no conception of Gary’s situation or of the situations of people like Gary when they write such books. Dennis wrote his first book (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#quest) from an incarceration that he did not expect to survive. Dennis’s jailers threatened him while he wrote his first book, and he even smuggled out chapters of it (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page5?p=689&viewfull=1#post689). Dennis wrote his second book in prison (https://www.amazon.com/Alternative-Dennis-M-Lee/dp/0964406802/ref=sr_1_2?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1534596340&sr=1-2), the prison officials repeatedly tried to get him murdered by his inmates, and they nearly succeeded (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#mistakes). Ralph McGehee wrote his book (http://ahealedplanet.net/mcgehee.htm) after his early retirement and engaged in an epic legal battle (http://ahealedplanet.net/mcgehee.htm#secrecy) with the CIA to publish it, in which the CIA went to the absurd extent of trying to reclassify declassified documents that Ralph used in his book. The CIA tried to silence him after it was published, and even bought up his books to remove them from circulation. I got attacked everywhere that I appeared on the Internet (http://ahealedplanet.net/critics.htm#troll), even attacked in forums that I was invited into (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/94-My-last-posts-in-another-forum?p=639&viewfull=1#post639), and I most recently had my work erased at Wikipedia (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/105-My-Edward-Herman-biography-project/page4?p=1389&viewfull=1#post1389), under the flimsiest of pretexts. Gary (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#hit) and Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#mistakes) had to survive murder attempts from the authorities during their travails, and Ralph suffered bodily injury (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#mcgehee), amongst threats and other harassments.

You don’t travel that kind of territory and make up stories, not when your adversaries are looking for reasons to silence you and can resort to murder. It is highly naïve, at best, to think that Gary wrote his book to make a lot of money or become famous. People like Gary, Dennis, Ralph, and I write because our stories need to be told, as a public service, not to get rich. I have never asked for a dime of compensation and passed up millions of dollars in earnings to perform my studies and writing. We all sacrificed our lives to do what we did. A similar argument can be made for Noam and Ed (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#crv). They were highly successful academics when they began their political writing careers, and anybody who thinks that they did it to make a lot of money or become famous has no idea what motivates people like that. They all answered the insistent call of their consciences.

When Brian O’Leary was an Ivy League professor after his astronaut days (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#after), protesting the genocide in Southeast Asia (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#early) and being a NASA gadfly, his books were published by major publishing houses and his op eds ran in the New York Times. After his mystical awakening (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#remote), he gradually left the Establishment’s fold, and as he began exploring the fringes, he lost his access to the mainstream. The more that he pursued the truth, the more ostracized he became. He nearly lost his life (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#attack), courtesy of the American military, in an attack that shortened his life (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page11?p=847&viewfull=1#post847), and spent his life’s last years in exile in South America, driven from his home nation (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#portland) by the gangsters who run it. The Establishment tried to erase Brian (http://ahealedplanet.net/paths.htm#bio) more than once, Brian was eventually reduced to self-publishing, which bankrupted him, and he was further reduced to having people like me help edit his final book. Recently, while I had my writings on Ed’s life and career erased at Wikipedia by a very rude admin, he also erased part of Brian’s scientific career (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/105-My-Edward-Herman-biography-project/page4?p=1389&viewfull=1#post1389), as well as the last 20 years of Brian’s life, which Brian considered his life’s most important years. Mark Twain (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#twain) and George Orwell (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#orwell) had similar suppression of their work.

After Gary was railroaded out of his career, he fought back and began filing lawsuits. As Gary’s wife once told me, Gary was a fighter, not a lover. Gary’s first lawsuit was a libel suit, and Audie Murphy set up Gary with Murphy’s own attorney. Immediately after taking the case, Murphy’s attorney got a phone call from Ventura County and then resigned from Gary’s case. Murphy died soon thereafter in a plane crash that Gary did not think was accidental. Gary soon discovered that no lawyer in California would represent him. When Gary and I had our fateful meeting in January 1989 (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#wean), Gary told me that it is easy to threaten lawyers with disbarment for simply taking a case, and Gary had been forced into being his own attorney for many years by that time. Every time that he hired an attorney, that attorney would soon get a phone call that threatened disbarment, and then the attorney would resign.

After I sacrificed my life (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#mortgage) to give Dennis at least a snowball’s chance, my legal fund hired the USA’s foremost Constitutionalist attorney, who remains the USA’s leading Constitutionalist attorney to this day, who specializes in taking on police brutality and other corrupt official acts. The year before he took Dennis’s case, he destroyed the careers of IRS personnel (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#bigtime), in a case that was ruled on by the USA’s Supreme Court, which became a direct precedent for Dennis’s case. That attorney was threatened with disbarment (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#disbar) for bringing his case against Ventura County’s officials, in the same court where Harry Pregerson (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit?p=1399&viewfull=1#post1399) presided. That attorney thought that mopping up the floor of the USA’s Supreme Court with IRS personnel put him in the big time, and to a degree, it did, but whoever was behind Dennis’s persecution made the IRS look like choir boys. They treated that big time attorney like something unpleasant that they stepped in and unceremoniously wiped from the bottom of their shoes. I recently looked at that attorney’s list of cases that he promotes himself with, and nowhere is Dennis’s case mentioned, a high-profile client who spent two years behind bars, and was nearly murdered in there, for failing to file a form (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#violate).

Another example of somebody writing because of the insistent call of his conscience is FAA investigator Rodney Stich (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#stich), who got in far deeper than he ever imagined. Unlike the rest of us, Stich began his whistleblower career rich and thought that he was safe from legal attacks. But the gangsters who run California’s legal system got creativity points in his case. They declared his decades-old divorce invalid (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#divorce) and used his unscrupulous ex-wife to take him down with their blatantly fraudulent rulings. California has, by far, the most corrupt legal system in the USA, and that is saying something. My wife’s doctor fled California (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#brodie), to stay out of prison for healing people of cancer with alternative means, and he was in good company (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#suppress). My company got to bear the brunt of the medical racket in California (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#experience), too, which was happening when I met Gary.

Even if I did not know Gary, I know that people like him are not going to make up events out of the thin air. Gary knew that if he did that, then they would quickly have taken him out. During our meeting, across the street from the jail where Dennis sat in solitary confinement for daring to throw a Christmas party for his inmates (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#solitary), as if Ventura County was some cartoonish parody of evil, Gary said that the only thing keeping him alive was never breaking the law, no matter how galling it was, because the gangsters in Ventura County would have then had an excuse to murder him, which they were accomplished at performing. To think that in the midst of that, Gary would fabricate the Tower conversation, which is a minor part of his book (which was published a little over a year before I met Gary), is to have no idea of Gary’s situation or how the world really works.

Wade

I am referring to the 1996 edition of Gary’s book as I write this, and it is falling apart in my hands. It was very cheaply printed, as was the first edition.
Can you get the book scanned?

Hi Paul (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1242738&viewfull=1#post1242738):

Gary’s book is over 600 pages. Before this series of posts is over, I will tell a brief account of how the man who sold Gary’s book after he died took me to task for even putting up that photo of Gary (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#wean). He jealously protected his rights to selling Gary’s book. Unlike how that rude Wikipedia admin characterized me (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/105-My-Edward-Herman-biography-project/page4?p=1389&viewfull=1#post1389), I am not a careless plagiarist or copyright thief. My work is the closest thing to a shrine to Gary’s memory on the Internet, and while that guy does not appear to be selling Gary’s book today, he is about my age, lives in Texas, and ran for Congress in 2016. If I actually did something like scan Gary’s book and made it available, I could see him taking legal action against me. Sigh.

Wade

Hey Wade, Scan the book for your own sake - but don't make it known or available. :)

Hi Latte:

No need. I have a few copies, and likely won't refer to Gary's book much more after I finish this series of posts. Once I do justice to our story, I plan to move on.

Hi:

I think that I have published enough anecdotes to establish that Gary’s path and mine had plenty of overlaps before we met. I’ll briefly recap my last stint in Ventura that led to our fateful meeting. While Gary’s journey is the closest thing to the plot of LA Confidential that I know of, Dennis’s journey makes Indiana Jones look like Walter Mitty. From his migrant farmer roots (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis?p=576&viewfull=1#post576) to his Vietnam days (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page9?p=778&viewfull=1#post778) to his first awakening moment (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis?p=577&viewfull=1#post577) to his hobnobbing with the Eastern Oligarchy (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis?p=578&viewfull=1#post578) to surviving mobs hit attempts (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis?p=579&viewfull=1#post579) over his idealistic businesses (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis?p=583&viewfull=1#post583) to nearly dying from medical negligence (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis?p=584&viewfull=1#post584) to getting involved with the world’s best heating system (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis?p=585&viewfull=1#post585) and using his ingenious methods (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis?p=588&viewfull=1#post588) to mount the greatest attempt to bring alternative energy to the American marketplace (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis?p=593&viewfull=1#post593), his journey before I met him is preposterous enough, but once I met him, it became surreal and those days comprised my life’s steepest learning curve.

That voice in my head (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=601&viewfull=1#post601) led me to Dennis, to begin our bizarre journey together. He could not get rid of me, and I chased him out to Boston (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=611&viewfull=1#post611), where I soon became his partner (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page3?p=614&viewfull=1#post614) and we began pursuing free energy. I brought in my first professional mentor (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#glimpse) to make a technical assessment, and he not only thought that we had a chance, he proposed marrying (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#marry) his revolutionary engine (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#glimpse) with Dennis’s heat pump panels (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#new) to produce free energy. He persuaded Dennis to move our operation to Ventura, in a secret deal (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page4?p=647&viewfull=1#post647) that I did not know about until reading it in Dennis’s book (https://www.amazon.com/Alternative-Dennis-M-Lee/dp/0964406802/ref=sr_1_3?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1534691354&sr=1-3) nearly a decade later. I had twice left Southern California, intending to never return, and there we were, moving to Ventura. I could feel the heavy hand of my “friends” on my shoulder once again.

Our Boston days were a failed effort, but were kind of a blessed calm before the storm. Within a couple of months after hitting Ventura, Dennis invented a program that worked (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page4?p=654&viewfull=1#post654), and money began pouring in from across the USA. We went from a few volunteers to 40 employees in a couple of months. I have never seen anything like it. The rocket ship was taking off. Our first encounters with the Global Controllers (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc) were in Boston (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page3?p=623&viewfull=1#post623), as we received the anonymous calls in the night to keep up the good work from the so-called White Hats (http://ahealedplanet.net/camelot.htm#white), to the friendly buyout offer from the Black Hats (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page3?p=623&viewfull=1#post623). They may well have been behind some of what happened in Seattle, such as the activities of the electric company hit man (http://ahealedplanet.net/hitman.htm) and the theft of Dennis’s company (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=604&viewfull=1#post604), but their hand was more evident in Boston and became blatant in Ventura.

As in Seattle, the official attacks were incredibly underhanded. In both instances, Dennis sought to work with the authorities before they attacked. In Seattle, they said that there were only a couple minor issues (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#financier), and Dennis bent over backward to work with them (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=595&viewfull=1#post595), but they tried to wipe out his company while he was out of town, seeking a friendlier business environment to work in, at the same time that the hit man struck, in what I have called and “inside-outside job,” which they also did in Ventura (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/81-Vignettes-from-my-journey-and-how-I-learned-what-I-did-and-came-to-my-approach?p=206&viewfull=1#post206). In Ventura, Dennis’s assistant had a conversation with the deputy who led the raid against us a few weeks later, asking the deputy if we were doing anything wrong, and that deputy assured us that all was well (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#deputy). Little did I know it at the time, but when those cars sped into our parking lot (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page4?p=660&viewfull=1#post660) in a cloud of dust, as the raid began, it was the beginning of my life’s worst year. I learned my lifetime’s greatest lessons in that year, and the chief one, which was driven home in no uncertain terms, was that personal integrity is the world’s scarcest commodity (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page6?p=708&viewfull=1#post708). I resisted that lesson every step of the way, until I could deny it no longer. There were some beacons in the darkness, such as Mr. Professor (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#mr), who was the true hero of what happened in Ventura, but they were few and far between.

My life’s radicalizing moment was on the witness stand, in Kangaroo Court (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#jail), as the prosecution made faces at me (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#faces) as I testified. And that “maverick (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit?p=1413&viewfull=1#post1413)” attorney lied down and played dead, going along with the railroad job. He literally sat next to Mr. Deputy as he made faces at me all day, and that “maverick” never raised a note of protest. That behavior would not have lasted ten seconds in a fifth grade classroom, but in Kangaroo Court, the judge, prosecutor, and even that “maverick” attorney pointedly ignored Mr. Deputy’s imbecilic behavior, which was intended to intimidate me as I testified. Dennis’s wife (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/81-Vignettes-from-my-journey-and-how-I-learned-what-I-did-and-came-to-my-approach?p=211&viewfull=1#post211) later told me that he did it throughout all of the defense witness testimony, as if it was a Stalinist show trial. The next month, December 1988, was my life’s blackest month (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page5?p=683&viewfull=1#post683), as visions of murder danced in my head, which was my life’s lowest moment (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#it).

By January, I had overcome those black thoughts and decided that I would do whatever I could to save Dennis (I no longer cared about our free energy efforts), who was in solitary confinement (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#solitary) for trying to throw a Christmas party for his inmates, and he was writing that he did not expect to live to see this side of the bars again. And that was when I met Gary, after reading some of his book. For all that I had been through, Gary’s book was a shock to read (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page5?p=684&viewfull=1#post684), naming names that I knew, and it was too traumatic at the time for me to read all of it. I read it cover-to-cover twice since then, and have periodically referred to it, such as now, while I write what is likely my last extensive treatment of Gary’s work (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit?p=1398&viewfull=1#post1398) and its relationship to mine. Before I get to our fateful meeting, I’ll cover one last parallel of his journey to ours, and a curious aspect of how dark pathers (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#serving) operate.

The month before Dennis was arrested with his astronomical bail (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#jail), a CIA man, who said that he represented “European interests,” offered Dennis $1 billion or so (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#offer) to fold up our operation. That was the first time that Dennis knew that what he called “The Big Boys” were involved, and Dennis’s counteroffer stunned the CIA man (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page5?p=668&viewfull=1#post668).

In Gary’s book, there was a tactic that he called “The Kiss of Death” or something similar. Gary saw a “Kiss of Death” moment between one of the gangster judges and a man who soon met an untimely demise, and it goes like this…

When gangsters decide to kill their targets, they can fete their victim, with a party and over-the-top well-wishing, as if their target was a long-lost son, but they soon murder him. You can see an event like that, when Joe Pesci’s character met his demise (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goodfellas#Plot), in Goodfellas (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goodfellas).

I confess that I don’t quite know what is going on in their heads. Was it to give their target one last good moment in life? Was it to deflect any future suspicion? Was it an act of sadism? Was it a way to help lure their victim to his demise, as it was in the case of Pesci’s character? I don’t know, and it could be a combination of such motivations, depending on the situation, but I have known my fair share of sociopaths and psychopaths, especially when they were sicced on us (1 (http://ahealedplanet.net/hitman.htm), 2 (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/81-Vignettes-from-my-journey-and-how-I-learned-what-I-did-and-came-to-my-approach?p=206&viewfull=1#post206), 3 (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#deputy)), and they can be very friendly (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#shocked), just as they sink their daggers in. A couple of weeks after their meeting in Chicago, that CIA man called Dennis, said he would be in town, and offered to take Dennis out to dinner. He was a high-ranking CIA man, a perfectly coifed Ivy-League type with the gold cufflinks, witty and urbane, the kind that Allen Dulles (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#dulles) hired. During their meal, the CIA man never mentioned the offer from the previous meeting, as he feted Dennis. Was that a “Kiss of Death” meeting? I suspect that it was, and I also suspect that during his trip to California, the CIA man arranged for Dennis’s upcoming treatment. Although Dennis refused the billion dollar bribe, ten million dollars, or one percent of the bribe offered to Dennis, would have handsomely greased enough palms to make what happened next a certainty.

In the GCs’ (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc) manual on organized suppression (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#levels1), which has been compiled over the past century, the problem that Dennis presented, and how he was dealt with, likely comprises a chapter or two, and there is probably a footnote or two on me.

So, on to my fateful meeting with Gary, which I will write about in detail like I have not done before.

Best,

Wade

Hi:

I need to portray the background of my meeting with Gary, which was the only time that we met in the flesh. The farce of a preliminary hearing ended in December 1988, and Mr. Deputy (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#deputy), who was promoted to be in charge of the jail soon after his career-making “investigation” and arrest of Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#jail), was trying his best to break Dennis for trial and ensure that he was never free again. At the jail, the jailers regularly threw people down stairwells, and three prisoners were found hanging in their cells during the previous year. Dennis later told me that the barbarities of the jailers were of a kind that he had not seen in many years. Throwing Dennis into solitary confinement (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#solitary) for trying to throw a Christmas party for his inmates was typical of their malice.

All technical witnesses had been chased off, and Mr. Researcher (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#espionage) was in hiding at the time, driven there by Mr. Deputy’s threats. Fischer (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#fischer) had disappeared, as had all other technical witnesses, leaving me as the defense’s star witness, and they got me off the witness stand as soon as possible (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page5?p=681&viewfull=1#post681), as the judge led the corrupt festivities. We later discovered that they had even lied to a test lab about us (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#arizona), frightening them off. In Kangaroo Court, with all technical witnesses threatened and chased off, and all test data declared inadmissible, they had successfully portrayed the world’s best heating system (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#new) as a scam, and the prosecution paraded an “expert” on the stand who had never actually seen one of the systems operating, but who categorically stated that a COP of seven (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#half) was “impossible.” At the preliminary hearing, the best testimony on the equipment’s performance ironically came from prosecution witnesses, such as an engineer who tried to extort money from us (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#extortion) the previous year, who stupidly forgot that he tested the equipment and that his test results (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#testify) directly contradicted his parroting of his textbooks on the witness stand. Another witness for the prosecution was a dealer who set up a competing network to ours (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#compete), was pursuing free energy with our technology, and who testified that one of his systems got a COP of nine. That was the nature of the “victims” to our scam that the prosecution paraded onto the witness stand.

Other than Mr. Professor (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#adventures) and Dennis’s wife (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/81-Vignettes-from-my-journey-and-how-I-learned-what-I-did-and-came-to-my-approach?p=211&viewfull=1#post211), I was about the only person supporting Dennis in Ventura, other than a few brave souls who testified, which included a minister who was a scientist and salesman (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#keys), a black dealer in Ohio (one of the few black people in our organization), and maybe one or two others. Everybody else was gone, either chased off with threats, cowering in fear, or they joined up with the prosecution, committed crimes (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#steal1), and piled on. My own mother, who worked for the local paper, never even asked for my side of the story, saved up her employer’s libelous newspaper articles about us, made a scrapbook out of them, and took it on tour (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=400492&viewfull=1#post400492) to my friends, family, and investors, while telling the story of her son the criminal. It did not look like Dennis had a prayer, in the rigged proceedings. It was in that environment that I contacted Gary.

By mid-January 1989, I had overcome my black thoughts of December 1988 (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#it), during my life’s worst month, in which going bankrupt (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#bankrupt) was the least of my problems. Dennis’s wife and children had lived with Mr. Professor since the previous summer. I visited her one evening after work, asked what more I could do, and she gave me Gary’s book. I began reading it, and did not get far into it before I recognized the names of fathers of children that I grew up with, and many other names that I knew. It was too traumatic to completely read at the time, and I put it aside. I don’t recall if I even read the chapter on the John Tower conversation (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#tower) back then, but I may have. Compared to what else was happening, the JFK hit was a trivial matter and I never discussed it with Gary. After reading as much of Gary’s book as I could stand, I got his phone number from Dennis’s wife and called one day, on a weekend, as I recall. Gary had been fighting those gangsters for nearly 20 years by that time, and I figured that if anybody knew what to do, it would be Gary.

When I called, Gary’s wife answered and I announced that I wanted to talk with Gary. She initially treated me very brusquely, saying that she could not trust anybody who called out of the blue. I then explained that I was Dennis’s partner, and she got real friendly, fast, and said that Gary was not home, but that he would contact me. Gary did far better than that. I soon heard from Gary, who said that he would meet me that evening, at a donut shop across the street from the County Center. I could see the jail from that donut shop.

When we met, the first thing that I said was that I would do anything that I could to save Dennis, and asked that if I went to Washington D.C., could I find somebody to intervene? For the next two-to-three hours, Gary gave me the benefit of his experience. Gary said that what was happening to us was standard operating procedure in the USA, as the kind of official criminality that we encountered was normal, in all jurisdictions. Gary said that, furthermore, they were all in the same club together, and that nobody in the USA would intervene. He said that the powers that be would send Dennis to prison for a good, long time, and make sure that he never even thought about his business efforts again.

For all that I had already been through, it was a very enlightening evening. Gary said that the only reason why he was still alive was that he never broke the law, no matter how galling, as it would have given them a reason to murder him. Gary had filed numerous lawsuits, and he said that the clerks at the court would simply put his lawsuits and motions through the shredder, and they would have no record of his case or filing, even when he had the filing receipt in hand. I saw that happen with Dennis, too, as his filings would be “lost” by the court. Gary told me how they even erased his testimony from the court transcript, as he testified. He told me of being on the witness stand, and when he made a sensational bit of testimony, the court reporter made a hand gesture to the judge, who then paused the proceedings as the reporter scrolled through her tape and removed Gary’s damning testimony, which was subsequently not in the court transcript. Gary said that he eventually began wearing a tape recorder, hidden in his jacket, so that he could catch them erasing his testimony.

Gary also told me how they stacked juries there, and related the situation where the fire department broke into his store (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit?p=1411&viewfull=1#post1411) and fabricated an extension-cord “violation,” and when the jury was selected, it was stacked with the relatives of firemen. When Gary saw that, he knew that he had no chance, and they put him on an onerous probation. Gary ran for sheriff the next year, and the county quickly passed a law (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit?p=1408&viewfull=1#post1408) that made Gary too old to run for office!

Gary had met me on his way home from a meeting in Saticoy (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit?p=1409&viewfull=1#post1409), as he tried to help organize the residents to resist a land grab that the Ventura County gangsters were orchestrating with the courts. Gary said that it was nearly an impossible task, as everybody flew off in their self-serving directions and failed to put up a united front to resist the play to steal their land. With what I had seen in the previous three years with Dennis, that was no surprise.

At the end of our sobering conversation, with all avenues seemingly closed off, I asked if there was really anything that I could do. I had already mentioned our civil rights lawsuits that we filed after the raid (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#civil), which were dismissed just before Dennis was arrested, and Gary said that I could refile my lawsuit and put the heat on them in their own court. He wanted to see my lawsuit, we drove from the donut shop to my nearby house, and I lent him my lawsuit filing, which I never saw again. That was in the days when I did not have ready access to a photocopier. A month later, I lent Dennis’s wife that LA Times “investigative (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page5?p=687&viewfull=1#post687)” article on Dennis, after she asked me for it, which I also never saw again. I learned to not lend out stuff like that, even if it was to luminaries like them.

Gary’s sobering advice was the best advice that I could have received. It prevented me from wasting my time, camping on a Senator’s doorstep. I digested Gary’s advice for the next month before deciding on my course of action, which miraculously sprang Dennis from jail (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#mortgage), in the biggest miracle that I ever witnessed, which Dennis and I knew was an act of divine intervention. That Gary went out of his way, mere hours after my plea for help, and gave me his critical advice, put him forever in my pantheon. The JFK hit was a trivial issue, given what I was facing, and I never discussed the JFK hit with Gary. It was just not that important in our subsequent relationship, even though I spent the next dozen years poking into the JFK hit evidence, to see how it lined up with Gary’s story. And, really, what was there to discuss? Gary had given a great deal of detail on the conversation in his book, and I knew that Gary would not make up something like that. With the milieu that we navigated, such behavior would be suicidal, not to mention far beneath our level of integrity. Making up stories was the furthest thing from our minds. We were dealing with the brutal truths of our world, and that was plenty to have on our plates. Lying and criminality was the province of our assailants, who could make it up as they went along. Because they worked for the evil-minded people who ran the show, they were immune to any sort of earthly justice, which I first saw with the hit man in Seattle (http://ahealedplanet.net/hitman.htm#death) and have seen many times since. It is just how it works today on our planet.

Best,

Wade

Hi:

During that month between when I met Gary (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#wean) and made my decision, I worked for the largest privately owned medical lab in the USA, just as the government and their media henchmen tried to wipe the lab out (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#experience). It was very similar to what I had seen during my days with Dennis, and would see more of in subsequent years (http://ahealedplanet.net/paths.htm#ftc). The government lies and the media broadcasts it, as they work on behalf of their private-interest patrons, to help wipe out the competition. I believe that it was during that month when the Los Angeles Times published an “investigative” article on Dennis. It took about an hour to read it, and I clearly recall that when I finally finished it, I said to myself, “They can simply make it up as they go (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page5?p=687&viewfull=1#post687).” Calling it propaganda (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#manufacturing) is being polite. It was a libelous series of lies and half-truths that turned reality upside down. I was permanently cured of the idea that the media had any concern with the truth, and when I heard of Uncle Ed’s magazine the next year (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#loot), I was so ready for its message.

Gary had dissuaded me from entertaining the idea that anybody in the USA would help; even allegedly “liberal” organizations such as the ACLU (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Civil_Liberties_Union). Even “progressive” and “radical” organizations get captured in various ways, as their initial thrust gets watered down into irrelevance, as they hack at branches if they hack at all. As I began to realize back in my days on Boston (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#protest), so-called environmental groups (http://ahealedplanet.net/purpose.htm#environmentalists) are usually worse than worthless regarding the big issues, and treat the global solution to all of their concerns (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#immediate) like the enemy (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/89-Free-energy-psychic-abilities-and-the-skeptics-and-debunkers/page2?p=438&viewfull=1#post438). But also, Gary’s advice, to become my own lawyer and take them on in their court, did not seem very promising. I had already seen Kangaroo Court in action, and it was their turf. I did not see how that was going to help Dennis much, although maybe it could have. I needed to do something with more direct benefit for Dennis instead of suing for my civil rights violations, which I suppose could have landed me in jail, too, but I was not thinking in that way.

By February 1989, I had long since been radicalized. 1988 was just the exclamation point on the real world lessons that I began to learn upon college graduation (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#believing) and my days in LA (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=406928&viewfull=1#post406928). 1986 in Seattle was the beginning of my big lessons (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=601&viewfull=1#post601), Boston was when my learning curve began steepening (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=611&viewfull=1#post611), and 1988 was when I learned my life’s most important lessons (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page6?p=708&viewfull=1#post708) in no uncertain terms. Back then, Dennis and I did not even know that there was a free energy field. Neither of us had even heard of Nikola Tesla (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#tesla1), in our ignorance. We had stumbled into the biggest issue on Earth, which dwarfed events such as the JFK hit, but we did not begin to realize it until much later. We had no idea that we had been made the friendly buyout offer in Boston (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page3?p=623&viewfull=1#post623), and I did not know about the billion dollar bribe (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#offer) until 1996, when I read it in Dennis’s book, The Alternative (https://www.amazon.com/Alternative-Dennis-M-Lee/dp/0964406802/ref=sr_1_5?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1534940492&sr=1-5). If I had known of those issues at the time, would it have changed my decision? I don’t know, but I doubt it. Nearly a decade later, I discussed my decision with Dennis, Alison (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/81-Vignettes-from-my-journey-and-how-I-learned-what-I-did-and-came-to-my-approach?p=211&viewfull=1#post211), and Mr. Professor (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/81-Vignettes-from-my-journey-and-how-I-learned-what-I-did-and-came-to-my-approach/page3?p=239&viewfull=1#post239), and I said that who knows why they really do anything? The cowardliness and criminality of those around me were no longer surprising. After those days in Ventura, nothing about human behavior could ever surprise me again. I had been awakened (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=309&viewfull=1#post309).

As I have written, by February 1989, I no longer cared about our free energy efforts. Dennis is the greatest human being that I have ever met or heard of, and you have to see him in action to believe it. I just wanted to save him from spending the rest of his life behind bars. I did not know it at the time, but Dennis was writing about how the authorities would have him murdered by an inmate, which they nearly accomplished (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#mistakes). I saw how Kangaroo Court operated (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page5?p=681&viewfull=1#post681), and it was my radicalizing moment. There was no looking back to my days of innocence after that.

As Uncle Ed said, reconstructing the past is not easy (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#differently), but my eidetic memory (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page6?p=703&viewfull=1#post703) makes the task easier. My thinking was that the primary body of the charges related to an obscure civil law that nobody had ever heard about, but I incredibly had (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#samp), and Dennis’s “crime” under those laws was failing to file a form, which was actually my job. I figured that life-in-prison for failing to file a form was going to be a bit of a stretch, even for Ventura County’s gangsters. They had successfully chased off all expert witnesses who could testify to the reality of the world’s best heating system (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#new), with lies (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#arizona) and threats (http://ahealedplanet.net/threat.jpg). A fraud conviction would enable them to go for life-in-prison, and they could only do that if they prevented any expert witnesses from testifying and they successfully prevented test data from being submitted as evidence, of which there was a mountain, from test labs (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#arizona), customers (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#customers), a Fortune 500 company (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#half), etc. How I saw it, the only way that they could make their life-in-prison attempt stick was to have Dennis hogtied in jail, unable to defend himself, while they paraded their dupes (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#victims), “experts (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#experts),” and extortionists (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#extortion) on the witness stand. That was where I saw my opportunity to make a dent, even though I thought that my chances were realistically nil. There was likely no end to their evil machinations. They simply made it up as they went along, and they had the guns, jail, media, and whatever else they needed to make their charade stick, and their palms had likely been generously greased (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit/page2?p=1420&viewfull=1#post1420).

In early February 1989, I approached Mr. Professor. I asked him to mortgage his house (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#mortgage) and lend me $50,000 for a defense fund for Dennis. After the farce of a preliminary hearing was over, that “maverick (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit?p=1413&viewfull=1#post1413)” attorney demanded big money to continue with the case and resigned from the engagement. Dennis was defending himself, as his own attorney. My plan was to use the legal fund to get Dennis an attorney and bring in expert witnesses for the trial, who did not live locally and were not subject to threats made by the local gangsters. I did not know at the time that they had already been at work, chasing off a test lab (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#arizona) from out-of-state with their lies.

I knew what I was doing: I was sacrificing my life. $50,000 was twice my annual salary before I met Dennis, and I knew that if Mr. Professor loaned me the money, I would be paying it back (at 10% interest) over many years, and that I was taking a path of never being a parent, never owning my own home, never buying a new car, and the like. It largely turned out that way. I have never owned my home, was never a parent, and until 2010, I had never bought myself a car. I finally did, and they will have to pry it out of my dead cold hands one day. I figured that my gesture would be an exercise in futility, with about a 1% chance of making a dent in the railroad job. A week later, I met with Mr. Professor and his wife, at his office, and you could see the jail from his office window. They agreed to lend me the money, and we had a good cry afterward. It is not easy to relate the evil of those days, and what blew me away was not their evil acts, not really. The big lesson for me was how nearly everybody else cowered, performed criminal acts once Dennis was in a headlock from the Big Boys, or piled on and helped. A decade later, as I studied the Holocaust (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#toward) and hardly a hero was to be found (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#hero), it was no surprise to me. Personal integrity is indeed the scarcest commodity on Earth (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#burn).

There was another good guy in those days, before we miraculously sprang Dennis from jail: the president of the company that was going to manufacture the heat pumps that Dennis was trying to carpet Seattle with (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#seattle1). His company was wiped out by the Rockefellers’ bank (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#chase), just as Dennis found a finance company (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#financier) that made his plan feasible (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#finance). I did not connect those dots back then, but in subsequent years, I think that the Rockefellers’ wiping out Dennis’s manufacturer, just as Dennis obtained financing, was no coincidence. I also think that the Mormon grifters, who stole Dennis’s company (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=604&viewfull=1#post604), with my boss’s help, may have been acting on behalf of the GCs (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc), although I will never be able to prove it. But the same dynamics happened in Ventura two years later (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/81-Vignettes-from-my-journey-and-how-I-learned-what-I-did-and-came-to-my-approach?p=206&viewfull=1#post206), so it is a little too much coincidence, especially when I later heard that the Mormon financial empire (http://ahealedplanet.net/journey.htm#mormon) was not only the biggest investor in Washington’s electric companies, but they were the leading organization in the global cabal that keeps the lid on free energy and related technologies. But I did not know any of that when I sacrificed my life. If I had, I wonder if it would have impacted my decision. I doubt it, but I’ll never know for sure. I knew that I was on special assignment, ever since that voice told me to move to Seattle (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#voice2), and I had to live by the light of the truth, no matter what. I could tell that my “friends” were orchestrating events, and that if I had to sacrifice my life to give Dennis at least a snowball’s chance, then I had to. I don’t want to hear from that voice again (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#voice3), not for any more suicide missions, but I can’t regret what I did.

Six weeks after Mr. Professor and his wife agreed to lend me the money, Dennis was released from jail, in the biggest miracle that I ever witnessed, which we knew was an act of divine intervention. The forces of darkness would not prevail on that day, and Gary’s advice was a critical ingredient in my decision. The JFK hit was the furthest thing from my mind in those days.

Best,

Wade

Hi:

While it is true that Ventura County has the reputation as one of the most corrupt counties in the USA (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit?p=1408&viewfull=1#post1408), I really don’t want to pick on them too much, as the corruption that we encountered there we found all over the USA, in the highest places, such as the USA’s Supreme Court. I wish I had a dollar for every time that one of Dennis’s attorneys said “They can’t do that!” Dennis almost invariably saw Kangaroo Court rulings on his cases, from the lowest to highest levels in the USA’s legal system, as his attorneys, some with national reputations, had their jaws hanging open or scratched their heads, saying that they never saw that before.

However, I’ll say this... When I was the janitor in that office building (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit?p=1405&viewfull=1#post1405), I was very friendly with one of the managing partners of the law firm that owned the building. One day, I heard him on the phone, saying that Ventura was “in the sticks” compared to LA. When Dennis and I hit town in 1987, I called that law partner, saying that we were in town, and I had a question about setting up our business there, and he told me, “Be careful!” In retrospect, I wonder what he was referring to.

That bush league move by that attorney (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit?p=1416&viewfull=1#post1416), to fill his shelves with pretty books destined for the trash can, was just a preview of my future dealings with Ventura County’s legal system. The raid, led by a man who just weeks previously said that we were doing nothing illegal (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#deputy), a raid in which they stole our technical materials (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#espionage), was a mere introduction to their brand of corruption. When Dennis was arrested with his million dollar bail (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#jail) and Mr. Deputy was promoted to be in charge of the jail (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#promotion) weeks later, and given an award for completing the most difficult investigation in department history, I attended the first hearing and saw Ms. Prosecutor for the first time. She was a graduate of that local mill (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#local), her participation in Dennis’s case earned her a judgeship (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#jury), and when she took the floor at Dennis’s first hearing, in less than a minute, she uttered a stream of lies that left me stunned, as she argued for the propriety of Dennis’s million dollar bail. Soon after Dennis was arrested, that “maverick” attorney took her aside and sought some kind of plea bargain, and her memorable reply was that if Dennis pled guilty to all charges, she promised that Dennis would not get the death penalty (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#penalty). It was her attempt at being funny, and showed the level of professionalism that we were dealing with. Out in the sticks, indeed.

If we had lied down and played dead, as that “maverick” attorney did, as he signed on for the railroad job, they would have made it happen, and Dennis would have gone to prison and likely have been murdered in there, which nearly happened anyway (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#mistakes). But we never gave up, especially Dennis. He filed more than 100 legal motions while he was in jail. As Gary wrote in his book, those gangsters who run the legal system, especially the judges, are cowards. In the end, dark pathers (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#serving) are cowards. They seize the reins of governance, rigging the system, because they don’t have the courage to make an honest living. They beat the system by becoming the system, and they all gorged at the trough. When I studied the global human rights situation, and found it to be as corrupt as everything else, with the so-called human rights organizations adopting the imperial framework (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#hrw), the word that I saw plenty was “impunity,” as death squad regimes could commit genocide (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#central) while promotions were handed all around. Torturing people to death was just a day at the office in our client regimes (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#torture), and the media always covered for them. In that light, what happened to us was trivial, but Mr. Deputy and friends operated with the same impunity. When you are used to doing whatever you want, with not only no negative consequences, but promotions and greased palms, it becomes a hard habit to break and ended up costing Mr. Deputy and friends, because we did not give up.

After the Kangaroo Court preliminary hearing ended, when I had my radicalizing moment (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page5?p=681&viewfull=1#post681), it was no more Mr. Nice Guy act from Mr. Deputy. Dennis had been the model prisoner for the previous six months. In fact, wherever he was, he turned the jail from a place of fear into a dormitory atmosphere, and for years afterward, Mr. Professor (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#mr) would receive calls from Dennis’s former inmates (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#calls), who called to let Dennis know that they had been treading the straight and narrow ever since, calling to thank the man who changed their lives. But after the preliminary hearing was over, they threw Dennis into solitary confinement (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#solitary) for trying to throw a Christmas party for his inmates, and when Dennis got out a month later, they began writing up Dennis for an imaginary rules infraction every day. They were doing their best to portray Dennis as an unruly prisoner, to reduce his chances of ever being able to make his astronomical bail. Ms. Prosecutor also filed a motion that argued that even if Dennis somehow posted bail, that he still would not be released, as Ms. Prosecutor cited the precedent case of a heroin dealer who sold drugs to make bail (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#heroin). It was regularly nauseating to read the legal “logic” in her filings. She later accused me of perjury (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#perjury) for my truthful testimony, and if you ever read The Alternative, you will see that my participation in the entire affair was far more spectacular than I put in my public writings. One day, I may be able to tell the whole story, which would make this story far more sensational, but several more people have to die before I can, and I might not outlive them. Dennis’s books, however, fill in most of the blanks.

When Mr. Professor mortgaged his home (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#mortgage) and got my legal fund going, the first thing that they did was hire an attorney. The attorney was a college professor who had never worked in a courtroom before, but at least he was an attorney, so that Dennis could have a little privacy. The attorney-client privilege is one of the cornerstones of the American legal system, and Dennis was entitled to private mail going between him and his attorney. Until that time, all of Dennis’s mail was read and all of his phone calls recorded (as well as the rest of us – they tapped all of our phones (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#tapped) and recorded all of our conversations). But in their culture of impunity, they opened Dennis’s legal mail from his attorney. Mr. Deputy was making sure that Dennis had no private contact at all, but they stepped over the line. In his brief tenure as Dennis’s attorney, he witnessed Ms. Prosecutor telling outrageous lies, and he was stunned. The attorney told Dennis, in shocked disbelief, that Ms. Prosecutor had lied to him. Dennis replied that he was now seeing how our vaunted legal system really operated, not the college version.

Before the preliminary hearing finished, Mr. Deputy was kind of on the legal hook, which was why he made faces at me (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#faces), etc., to do what he could to make sure that the case was remanded to trial. If the case never made it past the preliminary hearing, it would be a black mark on his record and he might have been more legally vulnerable for all of the crimes that he and his henchmen had already committed. But after the hearing was over, Mr. Deputy felt that he had carte blanche to act with impunity. However, another factor weighed in, post-preliminary-hearing-wise. Until the preliminary hearing, several judges presided over the case. But when a case gets remanded to Superior Court, then one judge is assigned to the case, and that judge had a problem: the prosecutorial crimes and legal irregularities in Dennis’s case were legion, and Mr. Deputy and friends were not letting up. The judge had a legal tarbaby on his hands, and the Kangaroo Court behaviors and other crimes would end up on his judicial record one day, and he had aspirations of serving on a higher court. He could not openly play Kangaroo Court judge, not when we did not lie down and take it, but he had to present a semblance of legal decorum. When Mr. Deputy and friends were caught opening Dennis’s legal mail, the judge reprimanded them for it.

Dennis won a minor motion, to get two boxes to hold all of the discovery information (most of which had been stolen from us (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#steal)), instead of the one that the jail’s rules allowed, and the deputy who really ran the jail (Mr. Deputy’s position was purely ceremonial) openly threatened Dennis’s life (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#fire) after Dennis won the motion. The tide began slowly turning in the six weeks after my seemingly futile gesture, and then one day, the judge asked Dennis during a hearing why he had not petitioned to have his “possibly excessive bail” reduced. Dennis had already made several bail appeals, all summarily rejected (except for the first one, in which the judge lowered the bail from $1 million to a paltry $750,000), and he replied that he was planning on making one last bail appeal just before the trial, but he wasn’t ready for that yet. Then the judge made his own motion (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#bail2) to review Dennis’s bail.

Something was afoot, and Dennis did not need to be told twice. On the jailhouse phone, Dennis told his wife to get affidavits from the people whom Mr. Deputy threatened during his “investigation,” and to get them to him through his attorney. The affidavits were soon assembled and on their way to Dennis, but Mr. Deputy could not help himself and had to take a peek, and the legal mail had been opened once again when it got to Dennis, and Dennis had his entire cellblock witness the opened legal mail.

A few days later the bail hearing was held. I took the day off from work to be a character witness, and the hearing was short, sweet, and hard to believe. Mr. Deputy arrived with his own attorney, looking very humble. No more feces-eating grin. The judge began the hearing by noting that Mr. Deputy’s attorney had something to say before the hearing, and allowed him to speak. Mr. Deputy’s attorney profusely apologized for Dennis’s legal mail being opened, swore that it was simply a clerical error, and offered to have the deputy who handled the mail testify that he inadvertently opened Dennis’s legal mail and that nobody else saw its contents (wink, nudge). The judge thanked the attorney for the confession and he said that he was confident that it would not happen again. The judge then noted that the prosecution’s “victims (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#victims)” seemed to have paid about $20,000 to our company, so the judge ruled that Dennis be released on his own recognizance, with a $20,000 cash restitution deposit in case he was convicted of the fraud charges (he wasn’t), and he then adjourned the hearing. I no longer cared about Mr. Deputy, and did not look at his reaction, but Mr. Professor did. He said that Mr. Deputy turned white as a sheet and looked like he had swallowed his shoe. It was no longer fun for Mr. Deputy, who later hid in his house for months to avoid the witness stand during the prosecutorial misconduct hearing (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#misconduct), and that story is coming. The next day, April Fools’ Day (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/April_Fools%27_Day), as fate would have it, Dennis walked out of jail, after enjoying Mr. Deputy’s hospitality for more than nine months. The week of Dennis’s release, Easter was celebrated, and instead of getting solitary confinement that time, Dennis threw an Easter celebration for his inmates (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#easter), replete with an Easter egg hunt, if you can believe it. I have never met or heard of another like Dennis.

From then on, I was no longer worried about Dennis. I knew how resourceful he was, and with the ability to defend himself, and no longer hogtied in Mr. Deputy’s custody, I did not see how the prosecution’s case had a chance, and that tale is coming. They still nearly had Dennis murdered (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#mistakes) over failing to file a form (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#violate).

The worst was over for me, and I then began digging out of my financial abyss and picking up the pieces of my shattered life, which had more shattering to go, but the next year was relatively pleasant for me, even with what was happening at my day job, as an unholy government/media alliance tried to put my company out of business (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#experience).

So, let’s just say that nothing in Gary’s book could shock me, and I never had any doubts that Gary related the John Tower conversation (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#tower) to the best of his recollection, as he wrote about it nearly a decade after it happened. Before this series of posts is over, I will summarize my tour of the JFK hit evidence.

I was looking for references to Late Victorian Holocausts (https://www.amazon.com/Late-Victorian-Holocausts-Famines-Making/dp/1784786624) in your essay and after reading those parts I am convinced that Hunger and Public Action deserves as much space and footnotes. It is unfortunate that the death toll from famines is a mere footnote when compared to ordinary mortality of agricultural societies. Which is why famine estimates are in the 10's of millions dead (with a high probably of 100 million or so), but the garden variety mortality estimate for India is 2 billion. Day to day mortality from disease in pre-industrial societies is much higher than mortality by famines or wars.

Hi Krishna (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1243752&viewfull=1#post1243752):

You mean this section (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#bengal)? I don’t plan on updating that essay soon, but I may put something here (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#demographic2), or maybe somewhere around here (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#opium). I plan some significant revisions to my Third Epoch chapter (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal3), and writing more about the thin energy surplus of agrarian societies, and how that made them unstable, is planned. Of course, when invaders commandeer agrarian economies in mercantile/imperial efforts, it is a catastrophe for the conquered, and I’ll write some on that subject. Over the long years of study, I finally came to understand what self-determination really means and how costly it was when people were prevented from pursuing it, as they lived in various forms of bondage.

I know where your heart is, and writing a little more about India is appropriate for my work, but probably more in the big essay. That section in my Lies essay (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#colonialism) where the rape of India (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#bengal) is covered is more about the contrast between what I was taught and what my adult studies revealed. English royalty is more popular in the USA than in the UK (https://www.cnn.com/2018/03/29/us/royal-wedding-us-interest-meghan-harry-intl/index.html), for another one of those diaspora effects. A bit of trivia on Late Victorian Holocausts; I was studying it during my epic meeting with Brian in Sacramento (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#governor) in August 2001. I had the book with me on that trip. I think that I first read of the rape of India in Noam’s Year 501 (https://www.amazon.com/Year-501-Continues-Noam-Chomsky/dp/1608464075), around the same time that I read American Holocaust (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004TFXREI/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_hsch_vapi_tkin_p1_i0), which was my big wake-up call on what the European “settling” of the Americas was really like.

Hi:

The day that Dennis was released from jail, I headed over to Mr. Professor’s house straight from work. When I got there, one of Dennis’s salesmen who disappeared after Dennis was arrested was there. If you get The Alternative, you will see quite a few affidavits made by people soon after April 1, 1989, when Dennis left the jail, such as Dennis’s assistant (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#deputy). Those people win some points with me, but those who helped before Dennis was released from jail were few and far between. Most cowered and hid, helped steal the business (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#texas) after Dennis was arrested, stole documents for Mr. Deputy and friends (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#steal), or stole anything not nailed down (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#steal1) on their way out the door. But I’ll say this for the Ventura employees: I don’t recall any of them testifying for the prosecution. They only testified for the defense, and mostly at the misconduct hearing.

Dennis did not know that I was his secret benefactor until months afterward (I had very good reasons for doing it secretly), when he needed more money for his defense and Mr. Professor finally admitted who the benefactor was (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page6?p=690&viewfull=1#post690), and Dennis was “upset and pleased and disappointed and proud.” When I met Dennis that evening, he acted like he had just gotten back from vacation. He showed off his flat belly, as he lost about 80 pounds in jail. The jailers starved the inmates, as money not spent on food went into a corrupt pocket. Dennis acted like he had just spent more than nine months at a county-hosted fat farm, and he was more enthused than ever to go make free energy happen. You really had to see it to believe it. Soon afterward, I told Dennis that I was done with trying to make free energy happen with him, but he kept trying to recruit me back, and in 1996, he finally did again, but it did not last long and I nearly went to prison for my trouble (http://ahealedplanet.net/other.htm#sting). I no longer believed in the businessman’s path to free energy (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page6?p=710&viewfull=1#post710) and still don’t. I don’t know if Dennis ever met Gary, but I am guessing that they did, but Dennis did not know the pivotal part that Gary played in Dennis’s release.

When Dennis was in jail after the preliminary hearing and that “maverick” attorney quit, Dennis and his wife tried to find an attorney. Mob attorney Melvin Belli (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit?p=1399&viewfull=1#post1399) wanted $250,000 up front as his retainer, which was a little beyond Dennis’s means. Dennis is a right-wing literalist Christian, which reflects his migrant farmworker roots (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis?p=574&viewfull=1#post574), and Dennis’s efforts from Ventura onward had a large contingent of right-wing Christians in the ranks, even dominant at times (http://ahealedplanet.net/dennis.htm#libel). The first alternative political information that I saw came through Dennis’s dealers, and some was in that “seditious literature” folder that was seized in the raid (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page4?p=662&viewfull=1#post662). When we sued for our civil rights violations after the raid, it was with the assistance of a Constitutionalist group out of Montana. Their communal house was set on fire and bulldozed while they were at church one Sunday, and some members of their organization had been murdered for crimes such as homeschooling their children. As Gary said, what was happening to us was not unusual in the USA, and I developed a lot of respect for Constitutionalists. Their entire purpose was to limit the powers of government.

Dennis sought a Constitutionalist attorney while he was in jail, and one name repeatedly came up as the best in the USA. He had moved to San Diego just before Dennis escaped jail, and still lives there, 30 years later, and he is still the foremost Constitutionalist attorney in the USA. As I later discovered, he did not become a Constitutionalist attorney because he believed in the cause so much; he saw an opportunity to be dominant in a niche in the legal profession, which few attorneys practiced in. When Dennis was released from jail, he was put under a kind of house arrest, in which he had to sign in at the jail daily and had to ask the judge’s permission to leave Ventura. He did not get any kind of time-served credit for that odd treatment, for one of the many legal irregularities in his case. But soon after being released from jail, he got the judge’s permission to visit that Constitutionalist attorney in San Diego, whom I call Mr. Big Time Attorney (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#bigtime) in my writings.

The year before, Mr. Big Time Attorney had one of his cases ruled on in the USA’s Supreme Court (http://ahealedplanet.net/links.htm#bigtime), in a landmark case that became a precedent in Dennis’s case. The Rehnquist Supreme Court (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rehnquist_Court) became legendary for its Kangaroo Court rulings. Rehnquist himself was a notable racist, arguing against desegregation (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Rehnquist#Law_clerk_at_the_Supreme_Court) and preventing Mexican-Americans from voting (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Eagle_Eye_(United_States)), and probably his court’s most notable ruling was its intervention in the 2000 presidential election, as it handed the presidency to George Bush the Second. My Harvard Law in-law told me that if you read their ruling and got past the legalistic mumbo jumbo, their ruling nakedly said that they were giving the presidency to Bush “because we want to.” For the record, the last time that I voted in a presidential election was 2000, but I voted for Ralph Nader, who was the only candidate that I saw worth voting for in my adulthood, and the way he was treated (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#nader) permanently soured me on the electoral process in the USA (as it did Uncle Ed (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm)), which is a completely rigged game. Would Gore have been better than Bush? I wonder, but it would have likely not been much better, if at all. We met with Mr. Environment at the White House (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#yull), and he backed off of any involvement, but I was invited to the Bush White House (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#midlife) a decade later. Dennis was treated better by Republican administrations than by Democratic ones, believe it or not.

One of the Rehnquist Court’s more infamous rulings was making kidnapping people from foreign nations legal (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#kidnap), in what is called extraordinary rendition (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extraordinary_rendition) today, which not even Hitler got away with. As Noam said, no nation comes close to the American disregard for international law, which is the worst since the days of the Third Reich. We simply make it up as we go, so watching the courts make it up as they went along in Dennis’s case was fairly typical behavior. The Kangaroo Court ruling in Mr. Big Time Attorney’s case went like this: although Mr. Big Time Attorney was able to get IRS personnel convicted of felonies during their pursuit of his client, the Rehnquist Court ruled that even if the prosecutors were convicted of felonies for their behavior while prosecuting people, that their crimes did not taint the state’s case. Thurgood Marshall (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thurgood_Marshall) notably dissented from the majority position. So, even though Mr. Big Time Attorney fried IRS personnel for their crimes, the Rehnquist Court ruled that they could just assign new IRS personnel to the case and keep going, and Mr. Big Time Attorney’s client still had to face the charges, which he eventually beat.

When Dennis met with Mr. Big Time Attorney, he brought along his documentary evidence of what was happening in Ventura. Mr. Big Time Attorney’s mouth began to water. Dennis had affidavits, and even reports from the deputies themselves (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#steal1), documenting crimes that were exactly what Mr. Big Time Attorney had fried IRS personnel with. Mr. Big Time Attorney said that he would take Dennis’s case, not so much to get him off the hook, which he said would be easy, but to sue Ventura County’s officials for violating Dennis’s civil rights. Instead of the $250K that Belli and others demanded, Mr. Big Time Attorney asked for a token amount to get started, such as $10K, which was almost exactly what was left in my legal fund (Dennis’s’ bail money came from my fund). Mr. Big Time Attorney later told me that what initially attracted him to Dennis’s case was his astronomical bail (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page5?p=669&viewfull=1#post669). In a funny anecdote, just before a hearing (I think it was just before I testified at the misconduct hearing (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#misconduct)), I gave Mr. Big Time Attorney a copy of Gary’s book, and he placed it on the table in front of him, in plain view of the judge and Ms. Prosecutor, and he wore a little grin as the placed Gary’s book there.

I have written about it plenty before (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page6?p=691&viewfull=1#post691) so will not belabor it, but in the year after taking Dennis’s case, Mr. Big Time Attorney got the education of his career. He got put in his place. Whoever was behind Dennis’s persecution made the IRS look like schoolyard bullies. Mr. Big Time Attorney had never seen the gutter maneuvers that Ventura County’s officials engaged in daily, and he filed a lawsuit against them in federal court (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page6?p=703&viewfull=1#post703), gratis, when he finally became disgusted enough. Then the federal court put him in his place, as he was threatened with disbarment. On the Internet, you can easily find rulings on Dennis’s case in the higher courts, such as this one (https://law.justia.com/cases/federal/appellate-courts/F2/959/240/220419/), and reading their rulings is enlightening. Just like that Kangaroo Court ruling in the Rehnquist Court on Mr. Big Time Attorney’s case, the higher courts ruled that it did not matter if the officials committed any crimes against Dennis, as they were protected by immunity and statute of limitations. So, if they committed crimes and fraudulently jailed their target, and put him in solitary confinement and other judicial outrages, the statute of limitations could expire while their victim was incarcerated, even while they were in the midst of a prosecutorial misconduct hearing. Just lock up somebody long enough, and all of your crimes against your victim are protected by statute of limitations and prosecutorial immunity. Neat system, and it reminds me of Martin Luther King Jr.’s statement, that we should not forget that everything that Hitler did was legal.

I staggered out of Ventura in 1990 (http://ahealedplanet.net/lessons.htm#books) (and never returned), the same year that Dennis was rooked into a plea bargain, after the judge took Mr. Big Time Attorney hostage (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#hostage), to force Dennis to capitulate (in Seattle, they took Dennis’s customers hostage (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#hostage)). The courts naturally violated (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#violate) their end of the deal and Dennis was sent to prison two years later (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page7?p=740&viewfull=1#post740), and the officials repeatedly tried to get Dennis killed by the inmates (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#mistakes). Dennis got “lucky” and only had some fingers broken and teeth knocked out (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page8?p=741&viewfull=1#post741). When Dennis was finally released from prison, I flew him out of California and had his plane stop in Columbus (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/81-Vignettes-from-my-journey-and-how-I-learned-what-I-did-and-came-to-my-approach/page3?p=243&viewfull=1#post243), where I lived at the time (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/83-My-days-in-the-trucking-industry?p=272&viewfull=1#post272). Dennis acted like he did when he got out of jail: prison was almost a vacation for him, and he was rested up and ready to go back after free energy harder than ever. Within two years, he was barnstorming the USA, putting on his free energy shows (I was amazed at the first one that I saw (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/81-Vignettes-from-my-journey-and-how-I-learned-what-I-did-and-came-to-my-approach/page2?p=226&viewfull=1#post226)), and he attracted a great deal of attention from many parties, including the White Hats and Black Hats (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page3?p=623&viewfull=1#post623), as well as the Justice Department (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page3?p=620&viewfull=1#post620). The sitting president, Bill Clinton, was highly aware of Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#yull), but American presidents are down the food chain a ways (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/108-The-Global-Controllers?p=1186&viewfull=1#post1186). I may never be able to publicly relate all of the attention that Dennis’s efforts received back then, but let’s just say that the highest councils on Earth deliberated on the “problem” that Dennis presented.

In those years after the Ventura experience and in the circles that I began running around in, one close pal was given an underground technology show (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#underground), the kind that you and I will never receive. Dennis was not chasing unicorns; the technologies that he pursued were very real, but have been sequestered from public awareness in history’s greatest cover-up, which is conjoined with the UFO/ET cover-up (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ufo2). Doug Caddy’s testimony of what E. Howard Hunt told him about why JFK was murdered (http://educationforum.ipbhost.com/topic/20494-bill-decker-and-john-tower/?do=findComment&comment=321167) was no surprise to me. What my friend saw was likely mostly developed by reverse-engineering captured ET craft. Several years later, I saw Steven Greer’s Disclosure Project witnesses (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/97-Steven-Greer-s-Latest-UFO-ET-Disclosure-Effort?p=938&viewfull=1#post938) describing the same technologies that my friend saw, in a show likely given by the disenchanted faction of Earth’s ruling cabal (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/108-The-Global-Controllers?p=1173&viewfull=1#post1173).

I could write for months on these subjects, but I want to get back to Gary and the JFK hit. After I left Ventura in 1990, with my life in ruins, I began the studies (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page7?p=739&viewfull=1#post739) that became my public writings. The JFK hit was a small part of a wide range of topics that I studied, in what I later learned was how “comprehensivists (http://ahealedplanet.net/roots.htm#fuller)” do it. As I have written, Gary’s book only had one chapter on the JFK hit (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit?p=1401&viewfull=1#post1401), and Gary did not reveal John Tower’s identity until after he died, in the 1996 edition of his book. When I learned that it was Tower, a whole bunch of dots connected, and I have seen Gary’s account called the basis for the master theory of JFK’s death, which brings together key aspects of the assassination literature, such as the CIA, military intelligence, FBI, Texas, oilmen, George Bush the First, and Cuba connections. Gary tried connecting the dots with his Jack Ruby and Jewish mobster connections (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit?p=1399&viewfull=1#post1399), which don’t come up in the Tower conversation. As a cop and investigator, I can understand why Gary tried to solve the crime, but my goal over the next dozen years, as I studied the JFK hit evidence, was to see how the evidence lined up with the Tower conversation, and I knew that Gary was recounting the conversation to the best of his ability. I never saw any convincing evidence contradict it, and over the years, more evidence came to light that supported Gary’s tale, and the Operation Northwoods (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#northwoods) documents in particular.

On that note, I will begin my survey of the JFK literature, and how my relationship with Gary went until he died.

Best,

Wade

Hi Krishna (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1243752&viewfull=1#post1243752):

You mean this section (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#bengal)? I don’t plan on updating that essay soon, but I may put something here (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#demographic2), or maybe somewhere around here (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#opium).

I know where your heart is, and writing a little more about India is appropriate for my work, but probably more in the big essay. That section in my Lies essay (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#colonialism) where the rape of India (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#bengal) is covered is more about the contrast between what I was taught and what my adult studies revealed.

No Wade, I was reading Energy and the Human Journey the references to Late Victorian Holocausts are 830 (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#_ednref830), 831 (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#_ednref831), 832 (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#_ednref832), 844 (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#_ednref844), 845 (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#_ednref845), 867 (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#_ednref867)

Apart from illuminating history and showing the death toll from "ordinary" reasons, I feel Hunger and Public Action also sheds light on today, and how cheap it is to bring everybody a decent quality of life (food, shelter, clothing, kids survival is possible at todays per capita energy consumption of India).

Also my sympathies are not just with India, I would say they are with the non-western world. A slight adaptaion from Nehru could be "the farther from Europe (via sea) a region was, the less it suffered. In terms of suffering via european colonization I would roughly put Americas, Africa, Asia in that order. In Asia too India suffered more than China.

Also I should add, the estimate of 2 billion is only for India (present day India, Pakistan, Bangladesh I guess). There is no accounting for China, rest of Asia, Africa. And no accounting for higher mortality among indigenous groups in the americas (post holocaust), australia and various smaller islands.

Gail Tverberg as usual has an interesting article: Supplemental energy puts humans in charge (https://ourfiniteworld.com/2018/08/02/supplemental-energy-puts-humans-in-charge/) I may read the references in it one day, they seem interesting.

I have been thinking about demographic transition in the West and decolonization. It seems to me that decolonization was smoother because of demographic transitions in the West. In that without ever increasing young people to use as cannon fodder, empires could not be run. Partly it is about literacy in the far reaches of empire (it is no coincidence that India's leaders were all educated) also.
But Demographics in the heart of rulers did play a role, demographics of USA (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demography_of_the_United_States) and UK (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demography_of_the_United_Kingdom)

Hi Krishna (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1243850&viewfull=1#post1243850):

We will see what I add to my big essay. Maybe a little more on those subjects, but feeding the peasants is not a thrust of my work (the exchange game (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#exchange)), but making them richer than Bill Gates, and only free energy can do that.

Tverberg’s latest (https://ourfiniteworld.com/2018/08/02/supplemental-energy-puts-humans-in-charge/) is the short version of my big essay, at least until free energy comes into the picture. OK, it is anecdote time. I periodically contact people who might be interested in free energy. They are few and far between to begin with, but Tverberg is a member of a milieu of financial bloggers who at least have some understanding of how our world really works, and they rightfully place the financial economy as a superficial exchange mechanism, not important in of itself, which is a sophisticated understanding that few of the financially trained ever learn. After years of reading those energy bloggers, I thought that somebody might be home. Wrong again. A few years ago, after my big essay was published, I contacted several of those leading energy bloggers, including one who actually writes that free energy is almost here. The only one that I heard back from was Tverberg, and while it was nice getting any reply at all, her response was to direct me to the Post Carbon Institute (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Post_Carbon_Institute), where Richard Heinberg (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/122-Ed-Herman-the-Left-and-My-Life-s-Work?p=1386&viewfull=1#post1386) holds court. I had to laugh. This is how inbred the field is today. It is an improvement in ways over thinking that money means anything, but those people usually become Level 3s (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level3).

Hi:

Before I get into my relationship with Gary after the Ventura days and my dive into the JFK evidence, and I keep my finger in that puddle to this day, I want to summarize how Gary and his John Tower conversation (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#tower) fit into my framework. I put Gary in a spectrum of so-called whistleblowers in my circles. A close relative was a whistleblower (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#whistleblower), a close friend testified in a famous whistleblower lawsuit (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page12?p=1303&viewfull=1#post1303), and I have been called a whistleblower, although I don’t consider myself an insider. Ralph McGehee (http://ahealedplanet.net/mcgehee.htm) was a whistleblower, until the CIA silenced him (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#mcgehee). Rodney Stich (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#stich) was a whistleblower (he died in 2015 (https://www.legacy.com/obituaries/eastbaytimes/obituary.aspx?pid=176765320)), who got taken to the cleaners (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#divorce) by the gangster judges in California. Dennis wrote his two most important books while he was behind bars (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#jail) and was slowed down enough to write, while he blew the whistle on the people who ran the institutions where he was incarcerated, who not only threatened his life (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#fire) but repeatedly tried to get him killed by the inmates (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#mistakes). Anybody who thinks that any of them just made up stories to sell their books has no idea how the world really works. They were on a battlefield in which their adversaries looked for any reason to silence them, including murdering them. The last thing that they would do is make anything up.

Gary constantly waged lawsuits to get the evidence on the record, as the gangsters who ran the system shredded his filings (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit/page2?p=1421&viewfull=1#post1421), erased his testimony on the witness stand, and tried to kill him (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#hit) at least once. Gary died destitute, in exile in Oregon, with an arrest warrant for his wife issued in California, as the judicial gangsters stole his gas station and store from him, which I will get to soon.

Ralph nearly did not survive his moment of awakening (http://ahealedplanet.net/mcgehee.htm#saigon), and devoted the rest of his life to telling the American public what the CIA was really about. For that, he paid holy hell, and engaged in an epic legal battle (http://ahealedplanet.net/mcgehee.htm#secrecy) to publish his book. I put Ralph on the scholarly end of the spectrum, similar to Ed and Noam (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm), as Ralph’s work had to be highly scrupulous to make it past the CIA’s censors, and Ed and Noam’s work was constantly put under the microscope (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#preface2014), to find any error that could be seized on, to attack and dismiss their work.

I put Stich near their place on the spectrum, on the scholarly/conservative side, but Stich, like Gary, was far from an armchair scholar like Noam and Ed, or somebody like Ralph, quietly writing his memoirs. Stich got in way further than he would have ever imagined. Investigating airplane crashes was only the beginning, and his adventures took him into the dark world of CIA contract agents (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#cia) and the like, in which his informants and others in his circle ended up in prison or were murdered (and, as usual, made to look like something else, such as Paul Wilcher’s death (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#wilcher)). I guess that you could call Brian O a whistleblower, as his first book (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#after) raised the curtain on the astronaut culture like no book since has, and Brian became such a NASA gadfly that they tried defrocking him (http://ahealedplanet.net/paths.htm#schirra) repeatedly, and I had quite an adventure (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog?p=284&viewfull=1#post284) in getting his NASA bio (https://www.jsc.nasa.gov/Bios/htmlbios/oleary-bt.html) published. Brian also died in exile (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#last), driven from his home nation, with his life shortened (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#attack) because of his adventures.

When Dennis played promoter, he tended to gild the lily, and I was not happy with it and let him know it. He had no need to exaggerate; the straight truth was plenty spectacular enough, without resorting to exaggerating (and the game he played (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level10) is partly why I am not with him anymore). That said, his books were conservatively written and well documented, and I put a lot of that documentation into my writings (here (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#hitting) and here (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#new), for instance). Dennis played at a level far higher than Ralph, Gary, Stich, or Brian did, in which being offered a billion dollars to go away (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#offer) was simply part of the terrain (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page3?p=623&viewfull=1#post623). It could be tempting to put Gary on the more conspiratorial fringe of whistleblowers, but unlike almost all other so-called whistleblowers on the JFK issue, Gary claimed intimate knowledge that came in the direct aftermath, from some pretty amazing sources (Murphy, Decker, and Tower are not exactly fringe names), and Gary constantly waged lawsuits to get evidence on the record, and he tried to do so with the JFK evidence, even serving papers on Tower, who turned ashen-faced when that happened.

In that light, not only is Gary’s Tower revelation relatively tame, it is not a big part of his work or mine, but rather more of an interesting sidelight. Even if I did not know Gary, people doing what he did do not make up events. That would give their adversaries the opening they would need to permanently silence them. I know that Gary would not have made up the Tower conversation, and that he recalled it to the best of his ability, when he wrote about it a decade later, late in his book, which he drafted between customers at his gas station and store.

Best,

Wade

Hi:

When I left my home town in 1990, to never return, with my life shattered, I began the deep dive into a vast array of material (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page7?p=739&viewfull=1#post739), trying to make sense of what I had lived through. Before I met Gary, I did not know much about the JFK hit, other than my father’s telling me that the Warren Commission was a whitewash. I did not doubt Gary’s testimony on the John Tower conversation (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#tower); it was the Rosetta Stone of my JFK studies. You could almost say that I assessed the JFK evidence in relation to Gary’s tale. If it aligned with it, I considered it potentially valid. The reality is that Gary’s story lends credence to the main lines of evidence on the JFK hit pursued by the independent researchers, including:

CIA connection
Mob connection, including Jewish mobsters
Texas connection
George Bush the First connection
Oil industry connection
Cuba connection
FBI connection
MIC connection
The idea that the communist connection was a red herring

About the only prominent scenario that it precludes is the official one: Oswald was the lone assassin. That said, I approached the issue like a scientist: I looked for any convincing evidence that could preclude Gary’s story (AKA “falsify”). I never found any. Also, over the years, more evidence has come to light that powerfully supported Gary’s story, such as the Operation Northwoods (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#northwoods) documents.

Like so many people, Gary tried to solve the crime, with his hypothesis understandably revolving around Jewish mobsters, and Gary’s Jack Ruby connection (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit?p=1399&viewfull=1#post1399) is the centerpiece of that dot-connecting, which also assails the official position: that Oswald and Ruby were both lone assassins. The lesson, for me, is that not only was the official investigation a cover-up from the beginning, but that our retail political system is completely illegitimate, as the sitting president could be murdered in broad daylight in front of hundreds of witnesses, and it all got covered up. It looks like it worked so well that assassination as a domestic policy tool (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#wallace) was used by the spooks (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/115-The-Spooks?p=1257&viewfull=1#post1257) for a generation, up to the Reagan attempt.

That said, how did I go about it? I just looked at my JFK bookshelves, and I have more than 50 JFK books, a modest cache compared to those who have spent their lives studying the JFK hit. In those early days, I read Lifton, Groden, Livingstone, Garrison, Summers, Lane, etc., and I have the Warren Report on CD somewhere in my library.

I studied the right and left in those days, subscribing to Lies of Our Times (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#loot) (LOOT) and Covert Action Information Bulletin (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#covert), as well as The Spotlight (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Spotlight), and I helped support Sheehan’s Christic Institute (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christic_Institute), before they were wiped out. I took it all in.

Early in my studies, out came Oliver Stone’s JFK (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JFK_(film)) in 1991, which spurred a great flurry of activity in subsequent years, such as Clinton’s establishing the ARRB (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/President_John_F._Kennedy_Assassination_Records_Collection_Act_of_1992#Assassination_Records_Review_ Board), and it has not died down all that much since then. The 21st century has seen JFK and the Unspeakable, The Devil’s Chessboard, and many other works. It has really been something to navigate that milieu. Ed Herman (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm), Noam’s buddy, was LOOT’s editor, and one issue had a backyard photo of Oswald on its cover, and LOOT argued that the backyard photos were likely faked. The article came out before JFK did, and noted how the mainstream media was attacking JFK before the movie was even finished. For Ed’s part, although he was one of the more brilliant structural analysts, such as with his propaganda model (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#manufacturing), he was onboard with the idea that Oswald was no lone nut assassin (https://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Edward_S._Herman#Doublespeak_Dictionary_(within_Beyond_Hypocrisy)), and he was quite intrigued with Gary’s account of the Tower conversation. In 1992, out came Russell’s The Man Who Knew Too Much.

1993 was a watershed year in the JFK issue, and out came:

Peter Dale Scott’s (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_Dale_Scott) Deep Politics and the Death of JFK
Noam’s Rethinking Camelot
Gerald Posner’s Case Closed
Michael Collins Piper’s (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Collins_Piper) Final Judgment

In 1995, out came Gaeton Fonzi’s (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaeton_Fonzi) The Last Investigation

In 1996, Michael Parenti wrote one of the more sensible essays on the subject (http://portland.indymedia.org/en/2013/11/425854.shtml), and his conspiracy-phobia essay (http://bleiersblog.blogspot.com/2007/05/michael-parenti-conspiracy-phobia-on.html) on the Left is one of my favorites.

In 1998, Fetzer and friends joined the fray with Assassination Science.

In 1992, wrote my second “book,” which was really a diary of my days with Dennis and Ralph Hovnanian’s Medical Dark Ages quotes (http://ahealedplanet.net/mdaq.htm). Gary read my “book” twice, and we traded correspondence and phone calls fairly frequently in the 1990s. Piper was a reporter for The Spotlight, I believe that I heard of the book through that avenue, and I believe that Final Judgment (I read the 1995 edition) is where I read, for the first time, that the mysterious “John” in Gary’s account was actually John Tower. When I read that, many pieces fell into place. Gary once told me that he gave the idea of Final Judgment to Piper, when he visited The Spotlight’s offices. There are plenty of YouTube clips by Piper (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e-IWzHfpstg), and you can hear him discuss his relationship with Gary. On one of the clips, Piper said that Gary took umbrage that his work was not emphasized enough, as if Gary was trying to sell more books, but I doubt it. Gary was trying to bring people to justice, not sell books so much. Gary similarly criticized Summers’s characterization of their discussions of Marilyn Monroe. While Gary was definitely promoting his version of connecting the dots, I always went back to the Tower conversation (and Gary’s encounters with Ruby). How did it fit with the best evidence? Amazingly well.

I studied the backyard photo evidence (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#backyard), including Jack White’s work (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#white2), and he gets credit for it, but he should have stopped there, IMO. He was advised early on to focus on one line of evidence and see where it took him, and he should have stuck to that.

I first published my JFK chapters (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#wean) in June 2001, and 9/11 soon happened. As I looked into the 9/11 evidence (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#sept11), I ran across the Operation Northwoods (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#northwoods) documents, which were declassified by the ARRB, which powerfully corroborated Gary’s story. The Northwoods plan seems like the Pentagon’s version of Hunt’s grand plan. Everybody wanted to cook Castro’s goose in those days, which nearly led to a nuclear holocaust.

While navigating that bewildering milieu, with all manner of people selling me their pet theories, I always stayed in close orbit to Gary’s testimony. I have other connections, which I will cover in this series of posts, but Gary’s testimony was always my bedrock, and lending credence to it (and perhaps some other angles, such as Doug Caddy’s testimony (http://educationforum.ipbhost.com/topic/20494-bill-decker-and-john-tower/?do=findComment&comment=321167) of his conversation with Hunt) is going to be my primary contribution to the JFK milieu. I’ll do my own dot-connecting, but not to solve the crime so much, but show how the official investigations were really cover-ups. There is a lot more to write.

Best,

Wade

Hi:

While studying the JFK hit, among other subjects, I was getting more healthy doses of how the real world operates, which only confirmed what I saw on my ride with Dennis and what Gary wrote about. I witnessed Kangaroo Court in action (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/83-My-days-in-the-trucking-industry?p=272&viewfull=1#post272), realized that the cops enforce the laws (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/83-My-days-in-the-trucking-industry?p=273&viewfull=1#post273) that they feel like enforcing, and I learned that one of the largest trucking companies in the USA had a policy of getting away with killing people (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/83-My-days-in-the-trucking-industry?p=278&viewfull=1#post278); it is cheaper that way, and buying judges in Southern California was easy, as many are for sale, for the right price. Harry Pregerson (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit?p=1399&viewfull=1#post1399) was not an aberration as much as the logical conclusion of how California’s legal system operates. And, of course, his image was how his highly developed conscience (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harry_Pregerson) was his most salient characteristic as he sat on the bench, with his big heart. That death camp Nazis (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#nazi) had their backgrounds whitewashed as they became American heroes was typical of how it works, and the whitewash lasts at Wikipedia to this day (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/105-My-Edward-Herman-biography-project/page4?p=1389&viewfull=1#post1389), for example.

I was studying the medical racket, as they banned books (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#banned) and murdered doctors (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gerson), and Kangaroo Court, especially in California, was a regular feature of the racket (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#suppress). As the Rehnquist Court (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit/page2?p=1425&viewfull=1#post1425) justified with one of its Kangaroo Court rulings, kidnapping alternative practitioners from foreign countries was standard medical racket practice (1 (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#keller), 2 (https://drbrianoleary.wordpress.com/2009/12/23/greg-caton-testimonial-letter/)).

During those years, I discovered that Columbus was really a greedy criminal (http://ahealedplanet.net/columbus.htm#first) who initiated the greatest genocide in the human journey (http://ahealedplanet.net/columbus.htm#genocide), in which perhaps 90% of a hemisphere was killed off in about a century. I discovered that the USA’s other Founding Father was another mass-murdering thief (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#blueprint), and that the grammar school that I attended in Ventura (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#serra) was named after the Hitler of California, who was literally sainted (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#saint) a few years ago. While I attended that school, my great nation was inflicting genocides on nations of peasants (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#early) while maintaining its fascist global empire (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#connection). In that light, murdering the head of state and covering it up was merely a day at the office, similar to how Roman politics (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#romancivil) worked.

In 1994, I acquired Rodney Stich’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#stich) Defrauding America, and no big surprises there. In Defrauding America, Stich chronicled a huge bribe that one of my in-laws took to ram through a public works project, and from what I knew of that relative, it was not surprising. Stich got in way deeper than he thought he ever would, as he originally investigated airliner crashes in which the airlines had their negligence covered up, with government complicity. Stich got taken to the cleaners (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit/page2?p=1427&viewfull=1#post1427) by the gangster judges in California, and I have to give them creativity points for how they took him out (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#divorce). The JFK-related tidbit in Stich’s book was that the CIA apparently had Hoover’s phone tapped and recorded his and Nelson Rockefeller’s planning the JFK hit (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#stich), and the participants included Lyndon Johnson (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page8?p=767&viewfull=1#post767), Allen Dulles (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page8?p=770&viewfull=1#post770), and George Bush the First. No big surprises there, and it is easy to imagine where John Tower (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#tower) might have come into it (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page8?p=769&viewfull=1#post769), privy to the retail plan to frame Castro and one of chumps in the dark about what the real plan was. The Congressman who had the tapes soon died in an infamous airliner crash (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Larry_McDonald#Death), for another “coincidence.” I have seen speculation and evidence that that airliner might have actually been a sacrifice by the CIA, and I’ll soon write about all of those amazing “coincidental” plane crashes.

It was in those years that a close friend was kidnapped and given the underground technology show (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/108-The-Global-Controllers?p=1173&viewfull=1#post1173) that you and I will never receive. Free energy, antigravity (or electro-gravity (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/97-Steven-Greer-s-Latest-UFO-ET-Disclosure-Effort?p=1355&viewfull=1#post1355)), and related technologies are likely older than I am, and are being sequestered in history’s greatest cover-ups (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#spacemining), which makes the JFK hit and cover-up seem like a school-yard prank, and his murder may well have been part of that cover-up (http://educationforum.ipbhost.com/topic/20494-bill-decker-and-john-tower/?do=findComment&comment=321167).

After the judge took Mr. Big Time Attorney hostage (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#hostage), to force Dennis to capitulate, he was rewarded with being promoted to a higher court (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#promotions), and the prosecutor was promoted to a judgeship (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#jury). Mr. Big Time Attorney begged Dennis to do a plea bargain, with that legal gun held against his head, said that he would do Dennis’s appeal work for free, and assured Dennis that it would take several years for his appeals to work their way through the legal system. Well, Dennis got special treatment every step of the way, and in less than two years, with the USA’s Supreme Court’s taking irregular action (that left another national-level attorney scratching his head, as he never saw them do that before), Dennis had exhausted his appeals and the “justice” system ruled that failing to file a form (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#bargain) merited two years behind bars. Dennis tried to withdraw his plea, as the courts reneged on their end of the bargain, to no avail. The railroad job to death began with Ventura County’s corrupt probation department, who I believe prepared the file that was used to intake Dennis into the prison system. As the system regularly does (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit?p=1418&viewfull=1#post1418), they simply erased Dennis’s past. His years of college, his honorable discharge from the military (for a murderous job well done (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page9?p=778&viewfull=1#post778)), his wife, and even his two daughters were erased as if they never existed, and failing to file a form was falsely called “convicted of fraud” in his intake file. That all added up to Dennis’s security ranking putting him in the medium security shark tank, which was the most dangerous place in California’s prisons, in which the prison authorities don’t even care if the inmates kill each other.

That was a series of “mistakes (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#mistakes)” made by Ventura County, but prison officials were also complicit, when a serial murderer was suddenly transferred to medium security from maximum security, to be Dennis’s bunkmate! I have seen that tactic called “execution by inmate” and other terms, and those “mistakes” would usually not be rectified until it was too late and the targeted inmate had come to an untimely and violent demise. The serial killer knew full well what the prison authorities were trying to use him for. He especially hated them, refused to do their bidding, and Dennis became his best friend in prison. The serial killer declared to the other inmates that Dennis was under his protection, and he ran that yard. Serial killers are at the top of the prison pecking order (https://www.hierarchystructure.com/prison-social-hierarchy/). When that maneuver backfired on the prison officials, they then framed Dennis as a “snitch.” Dennis barely survived the experience and got “lucky,” with only some fingers broken and teeth knocked out.

Dennis’s wife (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/81-Vignettes-from-my-journey-and-how-I-learned-what-I-did-and-came-to-my-approach?p=211&viewfull=1#post211) saved his life once again, with her incessant efforts. One of her many letters caught the attention of the official in charge of prison reform in California (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#bizarre). Dennis’s being in prison for failing to file a form was so bizarre that the official drove to Dennis’s prison and arrived, unannounced, to interview Dennis. That spooked the prison officials, and Dennis was soon transferred to a minimum security prison, less than a mile from where I lived while attending the university, where he happily served out the rest of his sentence. The Ventura County gangsters planned to have Dennis released on parole to Ventura County, if he survived the prison experience, but Dennis’s wife again pierced the bureaucracy and got his parole transferred to New Jersey, where she and her daughters had lived for years by then. I flew Dennis out of California (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/81-Vignettes-from-my-journey-and-how-I-learned-what-I-did-and-came-to-my-approach/page3?p=243&viewfull=1#post243) the day after he was released, as he escaped the clutches of Mr. Deputy and friends. And once again (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit/page2?p=1425&viewfull=1#post1425), Dennis treated his experience behind bars as almost a vacation, he largely wrote The Alternative (https://www.amazon.com/Alternative-Dennis-M-Lee/dp/0964406802/ref=sr_1_5?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1534940492&sr=1-5) while in prison, and he was raring to chase free energy once again.

Dennis soon began raising hell again, and in early 1996, he began barnstorming the USA with free energy tours, and the highest councils on Earth once again convened, to decide what to do about that man who would not die or quit, and who could not be bribed (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#offer). It was kind of like that scene in Raiders of the Lost Ark, in which Indiana Jones’s antagonist expressed his amazement at Indy’s persistence (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MeIBFGyGd6M). Maybe one day, I can tell all that I know about those days. The White Hats (http://ahealedplanet.net/camelot.htm#white), Black Hats (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page3?p=623&viewfull=1#post623), sitting president (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#yull) (who is down the food chain a ways (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/108-The-Global-Controllers?p=1186&viewfull=1#post1186)), and others avidly watched Dennis in those days, in a kind of awe. After nearly a decade of working on me, Dennis finally got me to go back to work for him. It did not last long, and it was on me: I really did not believe in the businessman’s path to free energy any longer, and had not since the Ventura days (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page6?p=710&viewfull=1#post710). During that stint with Dennis, I nearly went to prison for my trouble (http://ahealedplanet.net/other.htm#sting), as a highly sophisticated sting operation tried to entrap us, as billions of dollars were dangled before us.

Gary, in the meantime, had finally had enough, planned to sell his gas station and store, and retire from earning a living, as he was in his 70s by then. But the gangster judges in Ventura County had another trick in store, which I will write about soon.

Best,

Wade

Hi:

Before I get to more of what I learned after meeting Gary, on the JFK hit and other subjects, I think that I am making it clear that what Gary uncovered in his book, of awesome corruption, is not unusual. I make the case in my work that we are all involved, and are all responsible, to one degree or another (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#responsibility). Making this somebody else’s problem is a cop-out and a reason why it continues, which may take Earth’s ecosystems and humanity with it (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#spaceshipearth). The right and left describe only aspects of the issue, and a comprehensive perspective (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#developing) is the only one with a chance to see the big picture, and the left’s and right’s work can overlap to a great degree.

In general, members of the right do not like this section (http://ahealedplanet.net/intro.htm#progress) of my site, nor do average Americans. I have watched my peers – white, educated American men – go off the deep end after reading that section. A professor pal, who is now retired, used to read it to his psychology class, and his students reacted like he hit them over the head with a baseball bat, as they sought the nearest bar. I could have made that section more harrowing, and maybe I’ll add a vignette on how Americans get cheap organs. I think that I first read about it in Noam’s Deterring Democracy (http://goodtimesweb.org/analysis/2015/Noam-Chomsky-1992-Deterring-Democracy.pdf), in which he reproduced press reports about how American client states in Latin America had organ farms, in which children were raised for their organs, so that American children could have cheap organ transplants (search on “organs” at that link (http://goodtimesweb.org/analysis/2015/Noam-Chomsky-1992-Deterring-Democracy.pdf)). In 1991, that was an outrageous idea that people might have accused crazed conspiracists of concocting, but now, Americans’ and other rich Westerners’ getting cheap organs from poor nations is normal. It looks like China finally stopped the practice of harvesting organs from prisoners (https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-china-30324440), but it may be continuing (https://www.newsweek.com/despite-zero-tolerance-organ-harvesting-prisoners-continues-553986). China has not exactly been at the forefront of human rights advocacy, and for years, it was known as the place to go for cheap organs. A decade ago or so, the BBC did an investigation and secretly recorded a Chinese transplant doctor assuring a would-be patient that they harvest their kidneys from members of Falun Gong (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Falun_Gong#Organ_harvesting), an outlawed religious sect, who have very good health practices, so that Falun Gong kidneys would be among the best available.

A few years ago, I read of a Western liver transplant patient in China getting prepared for transplant. In that situation, the doctors could not tell if the “donated” liver would be compatible until they could test it just before implantation. The transplant doctors brought in a liver and tested it, but it did not pass the compatibility test. So, some minutes later another liver was brought in, and then another. Something like nine livers were brought in before they found a compatible liver. Prisoners were apparently in a pen, picked one-by-one, and slaughtered for their livers. The Bodies exhibit had to stop using Chinese “donors” (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bodies:_The_Exhibition#Ethical_concerns) when two specimens had bullet holes in the back of their skulls (https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/science/science-news/3345634/Body-parts-exhibition-raises-concerns-over-missing-dissidents.html).

Those China stories are not about communist iniquity, but how human life is treated where it is cheap. In “free market” India, similar practices (http://ajitvadakayil-1.blogspot.com/2012/10/kidney-sale-tourism-and-body-organ.html) take place, and in recent years (https://www.theguardian.com/world/2012/may/27/kidney-trade-illegal-operations-who), it has been making the Western press (http://www.latimes.com/world/la-fg-india-kidney-snap-story.html). I recall only a few years ago, reading of the organ harvesting business in India, and one example was a man answering an ad for a job. At the interview, he was given a drink, he passed out, and when he later awoke, both of his kidneys were gone. People in India and elsewhere actually sell their kidneys for transplant to Westerners playing medical tourist (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medical_tourism), but drugging somebody and removing both of their kidneys obviously goes far over the line. I actually read that kidney-less man being interviewed, but he can’t have lived for long after that.

Maybe I’ll add “cheap organs” to my litany one day.

Best,

Wade

Hi:

I have written plenty that I wish I had a dollar for every time that one of Dennis’s attorneys said, slack-jawed, as they watched judges make Kangaroo Court rulings, “They can’t do that!” The openly fraudulent legal rulings began with BPA Hit Man’s blatantly fraudulent bankruptcy lawsuit (http://ahealedplanet.net/hitman.htm#bk), when his other crimes (http://ahealedplanet.net/hitman.htm#harlow), including being responsible for a woman’s death (http://ahealedplanet.net/hitman.htm#death), proved insufficient in taking Dennis’s company down. Not only was the federal judge in on it, but so was Dennis’s lawyer, who suddenly could not string two legal thoughts together, as he went along with the railroad job. Several months later, Dennis’s company was stolen (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=604&viewfull=1#post604) in one of those “They can’t do that!” moments, as the employees cheered the theft, which was a key awakening moment for me (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#why). John Spickard’s company (http://ahealedplanet.net/hitman.htm#finance) was stolen a couple of weeks earlier, as a way to steal Dennis’s, and Mormon grifters led the effort. Hmmm (http://ahealedplanet.net/journey.htm#mormon).

Those thefts and fraudulent lawsuits did not have any legal legs to stand on, but in Kangaroo Court, they work just fine, with compliant judges on the take, etc. The judges stole Gary’s gas station and store using similar means to how Dennis’s company was stolen. Gary found a buyer, but the buyer declared bankruptcy while the sale was in escrow. A five-year-old could understand that if the buyer goes bankrupt before the sale is completed, then there is no sale. The deal is off. But not in Ventura County. The gangster judges ruled that Gary had to hand over the deed to the gas station and store, as if the escrow process and sale was complete, so that Gary would give up his gas station for nothing in return, or perhaps becoming a creditor of a bankrupt estate. Gary had put the gas station and store in his wife’s name, and the judges actually issued a warrant for Gary’s wife’s arrest, as she would not hand over the deed to the facility. It was outright theft from Gary and his wife, and I’ll bet dollars to donuts that the bankrupt “buyer” was part of the scheme from the beginning. They have all sorts of tricks up their sleeve like that, of naked theft that they somehow make “legal.” They can simply make it up as they go. As that retired mobster said, the Chicago boys never had it so sweet (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit?p=1405&viewfull=1#post1405).

Gary and his wife moved to exile in Oregon, where he lived the rest of his life, with a warrant for his wife’s arrest. Gary died destitute, in Oregon, and my guess is that the judges feasted on Gary’s gas station and store.

Best,

Wade

In another forum...

Hi Michael (http://educationforum.ipbhost.com/topic/20494-bill-decker-and-john-tower/?do=findComment&comment=385170):

Well, I see the light at the end of the tunnel on these posts on Gary and JFK, and as I have stated, giving Gary’s account of his Tower conversation credibility is really what I can contribute most to this milieu, but I will also give my views on the JFK hit (and I have already, on this thread and elsewhere). The plane crashes are just another facet of this milieu. There are way too many of them to all be coincidence. Gary saw them happen in Ventura County, his pal Murphy, and Tower, died in plane crashes, and Tower’s crash was nearly the same day as Heinz’s, whom Gary wrote that he was also working with when they died.

For me, what I have to contribute, particularly with this “rambling” series of posts, is that I make many “outrageous” claims, but everything that can be checked out in my writings will check out and then some. Some of the outrageous claims in my posts on this thread have included:

Our pursuit of free energy resulted in a billion dollar bribe being offered (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#offer), before they lowered the boom on us (and a voice in my head (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#voice2) led me to my partner);
An astronaut pal (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm) (I am his biographer) hosted a UFO conference, and the military soon made him an “offer” to do UFO research for them, and he nearly died immediately afterward, after rejecting their offer, of a “heart attack (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page11?p=847&viewfull=1#post847).”
One close friend was given an underground demonstration (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/108-The-Global-Controllers?p=1173&viewfull=1#post1173) of free energy, anti-gravity, and other technologies from the disenchanted faction of the cabal that manipulates humanity from the shadows
One pal, who helped me in my hour of need, heard from John Tower (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#tower), in the company of Audie Murphy and Bill Decker, that Oswald was a military intelligence operative who got recruited by E. Howard Hunt to be the fall guy for a fake assassination attempt on JFK that turned into a real one. He also repeatedly encountered Jack Ruby (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#ruby) in the company of Mickey Cohen (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#cohen).

Each one of those events happened amidst great secrecy and sometimes with cloak-and-dagger tactics, and there are not paper trails for events like those. For the record, I do not know what became of that package on Oswald that Tower gave Gary, and Gary gave to Murphy for safekeeping, but I’ll bet that it was “recovered” long ago by the JFK cleanup crews. All that we have are the testimonies of those who lived the events. That is the nature of the beast. But, for people who have done any whistleblowing, Gary’s story is very familiar, as far as what his life became when he did not lie down and take it. All that I can do is help make the milieu that Gary operated in more real to my readers. What I lived through was all too real (and is far more spectacular than my public writings have been so far), and I have no doubt about the testimonies of the people in those events listed above. You can take it to the bank. I am partly doing this because I am the last man standing. The others in my circle (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#adventures) are done or dead, and I need to do what I can to put it on the record.

So, are any big revelations coming before I get done with my writings on Gary, JFK, and me? Nothing that beats those above, but there is plenty more to relate, but I’ll do it on a new thread. When I am done, I’ll make some finishing posts back on this one, and then I am going to largely leave behind Gary and JFK, and do my other work (I’ll keep posting at this forum, but not much more on Gary and JFK). This JFK issue is just a sidelight in my work and Gary’s. Not to belittle the milieu at all, but I am chasing the biggest event in the human journey (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5) and am not getting any younger. I only have so many heartbeats left. Maybe I’ll keep going strong for another 30 years like Uncle Ed did (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm), but there are no guarantees and I have more work to do.

Thanks for reading.

Best,

Wade

Hi:

OK, it is time to write about plane crashes. Sometimes a plane crash is just a plane crash, and untimely demises are simply untimely and not related to conspiratorial scenarios. However, plane crashes are just one method of many (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#tactics) by which people have been murdered, and obviously, bringing down an airplane, and even an airliner, is going to be a more sophisticated effort than merely hiring somebody to put a few bullets in the target. I am going to write a little prelude to these plane crash posts, on the ways that people in my circles have been murdered, had their lives shortened, survived murder attempts that failed, as well as other untimely deaths that people in my circles were aware of.

Before I ever met Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#hitting), my father told me that people who crossed the most prominent local developer simply disappeared (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit?p=1405&viewfull=1#post1405). Ventura is a seaside town, and I have no doubt that the seafloor off of Ventura County has the remains on many people who have received cement shoes over the years. One close relative was a whistleblower in the federal government (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#whistleblower), and a rather naïve one at first. His whistleblowing activities saved the federal government hundreds of millions of dollars. Years later, he was told by somebody in the know that he was lucky to be alive. Those hundreds of millions of dollars that he saved were destined for the pockets of a defense contractor, and many defense contractors did not shrink from murdering people who got in the way like that. As my relative began waking up to what he stumbled into, he witnessed the case of a federal magistrate in California who simply disappeared, just before he was going to hand down a ruling that would likely not have been in favor of a huge defense contractor.

A generation later, a close friend testified in a famous whistleblower lawsuit (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page12?p=1303&viewfull=1#post1303), and that case is partly why we have whistleblower laws today. That Bay Area defense contractor rented out a local house of prostitution when entertaining Pentagon officials. Just as that whistleblower began raising a stink, and the press and public began to focus on that house of ill repute, its madame-proprietor simply disappeared. When my friend saw that happen, he stayed silent for many years before coming forward and testifying, and even then, the defense contractor spent a lot of money to intimidate him before he testified.

I heard other hair-raising tales before I met Dennis, of inventors of high-MPG carburetors (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/94-My-last-posts-in-another-forum?p=640&viewfull=1#post640) being wiped out and their inventions seized, and my first professional mentor was told by a high-ranking federal official that if he thought he would take his revolutionary engine (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#glimpse) and make the internal combustion engine obsolete, that he had better make his funeral plans first (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#funeral), as Detroit played hardball. In subsequent years, I saw a great deal of that kind of behavior (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page3?p=623&viewfull=1#post623) out of Detroit. Gangsters run the show, and our adventures took us to the highest levels of the game on Earth (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/108-The-Global-Controllers?p=1186&viewfull=1#post1186), and it was lofty indeed, in a milieu where sitting American presidents (http://ahealedplanet.net/journey.htm#presidents) are nothing more than disposable puppets and stooges, and completely in the dark on the critical issues that humanity faces. Those global gangsters are highly sophisticated (I have seen it called very organized crime), and at those highest levels, when they mess with you, which can include murder attempts, you usually don’t even know that you have been messed with. You might figure it out years later, you might not, and you might die.

When I met Dennis, he had a bodyguard (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page3?p=623&viewfull=1#post623), as he had received so many death threats from the minions of the electric companies by that time. Dennis has cheated death dozens of times, in a life that makes Indiana Jones (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#jones) look like Walter Mitty.

When I first read Gary’s book, it was harrowing, and tales of people being murdered, who got in the way, was a standard feature of Gary’s book. I’ll give an example of how the same ends can be achieved by different means, and plane crashes are just one way to accomplish it. Gary wrote about an esteemed judge who ran for reelection, and was a shoe-in. However, he was not part of the gangster judge cabal that ran Ventura County. Some kid right out of law school ran against that judge, and it seemed insane. The kid might receive ten votes. However, mere days before the election, that judge met an untimely demise in a mishap at sea, right off of Ventura. When that happened, that kid won the election by default and became a judge (and became one of the gangster judges). When Gary saw that, he saw another tactic of the gangster judges, in which murdering a rival or somebody in the way, just before the election, was a neat and effective trick.

Since reading that, my radar has been up for other untimely demises like that, and two in recent memory were Paul Wellstone’s (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Wellstone#Death) and Mel Carnahan’s (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mel_Carnahan#2000_Senate_election_and_death) deaths, just before their elections. Wellstone led the effort in the Senate against the Bush administration’s plans to invade Iraq (on completely false pretenses (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#invading), of course). He died less than two weeks before the election, and his challenger won and changed the balance of power in the Senate. Carnahan also died in a plane crash mere weeks before his election, and in that case, his opponent, who became Bush the Second’s Attorney General, actually lost to a dead man, as the public elected Carnahan’s widow instead. Democratic politicians seem to have a much higher death rate from untimely plane crashes than Republican politicians do. When Wellstone died, there was not a politician on Capitol Hill who thought that his death just before the election was a coincidence, but nobody dared speak publicly about it. I read that from an investigator connected to the inside in Washington (whom I once interacted with), soon after it happened, and I did not have much doubt about it.

You have to believe the fairy tales of American nationalism (http://ahealedplanet.net/intro.htm#paradigms) to fail to suspect foul play in those “coincidental” deaths. Gary wrote of many other “coincidental” deaths, by plane “accidents” and other means, and I have plenty more to write on the subject.

Best,

Wade

Hi:

More on plane crashes. They are far from confined to American politicians. Self-confessed Economic Hit Man John Perkins (http://ahealedplanet.net/other.htm#neocolonialist) described how he befriended two Latin American populist leaders (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#perkins) who refused to let the USA rape their nations, and they both died in “plane crashes” that seemed like anything but accidents. When the USA invaded Panama (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#prelude), it bombed the tomb of its tragically dead populist leader, Omar Torrijos (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Omar_Torrijos#Death), and some white men entered the broken mausoleum and looted some of Torrijos’s remains. I subscribed to Lies of Our Times (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#loot) in those days, and LOOT was journalism at its finest. I remember reading a LOOT article by Graham Greene (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graham_Greene), just before he died, in which he reported what he knew about the “crash” that took Torrijos’s life, from the inside. There was little left of the craft or its occupants, which appeared to have exploded in mid-air and the fiery remnants came down. Another LOOT article speculated that looting Torrijos’s tomb may well have been an expedition sponsored by George Bush the First, to collect some trophies for his Skull and Bones (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skull_and_Bones) club, as his father had also done when his pals raided Geronimo’s grave (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geronimo#Alleged_theft_of_Geronimo's_skull).

The other populist leader, Jaime Roldós of Ecuador, died only a couple of months before Torrijos did, in another fiery crash (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jaime_Rold%C3%B3s_Aguilera#Death) that burned the bodies beyond recognition. Their deaths were during the early days of the Reagan administration, and Reagan himself (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#reagan) may well have been a victim of the ascendant interests of those days.

As Noam and Ed wrote, the USA busily reconstructed its imperial ideology (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#cataclysm) during the late 1970s, to overcome the public perception of our imperial activities in Southeast Asia. When Reagan was elected, it was no more Mr. Nice Guy, as Carter pretended to be, with his bogus crusade for human rights (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#carter). Reagan began with a hard line. His administration announced its “anti-terrorist (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#terrorism)” stance from the beginning, and the CIA immediately began forging documents (see White Paper Whitewash (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01FJ11I0A/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_bibl_vppi_i8), for instance) and engaged in other shenanigans, which set the stage for the American-backed genocides in Central America (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#central) in the 1980s. In that light, taking down the planes of obstacles to the American Empire was just a day at the office for the CIA and friends. Murdering heads of state was a CIA specialty, and before JFK got it, he got to see it happen to Lumumba (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patrice_Lumumba#United_States_involvement) and Diem (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ngo_Dinh_Diem#Coup_and_assassination), which deeply troubled him. I see the JFK hit as the CIA’s merely bringing its coup skills to bear on a particularly troublesome president who was a decidedly lukewarm imperialist. It was not such a big step. The CIA tried overthrowing the French government (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_de_Gaulle#Algeria) immediately after the failed Bay of Pigs operation, and de Gaulle (who survived a plane sabotage effort himself (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_de_Gaulle#Plane_sabotage)) was nearly murdered the year before JFK was (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_de_Gaulle#Assassination_attempts), in an ambush remarkably similar to what happened in Dealey Plaza, and de Gaulle had no doubt that JFK was taken out by a CIA operation, led by his old adversary Allen Dulles (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#dulles).

There is a lot more to come on plane crashes.

Best,

Wade

In another forum..

Hi David (http://educationforum.ipbhost.com/topic/25188-gary-wean-me-and-the-jfk-hit/?do=findComment&comment=385208):

I think that you should quit while you are ahead. You have only succeeded in embarrassing yourself. You will never dig out of the credibility hole that you just dug with me and anybody else who has any familiarity with the issues. The first article that you linked to, which is the first link that comes up when you Google the subject today, is criminally libelous, and I wrote at length (http://ahealedplanet.net/dennis.htm#article) 20 years ago on why it is libelous. Once I exposed Mr. Skeptic’s lies (as did others, as a five-year-old could see through them), he would simply make up new lies (http://ahealedplanet.net/dennis.htm#attack2006). That Skeptical Inquirer article is what unmasked him for me. Psychopaths unmasked themselves to me before (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page5?p=681&viewfull=1#post681) he did, and that is always educational, although it eventually gets wearying.

When Dennis was finally banned from the energy industry (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=694872&viewfull=1#post694872) in the USA, Mr. Skeptic (http://ahealedplanet.net/dennis.htm#friends) quietly slithered away, as he was no longer needed to help dupe the gullible. I am more than half convinced (http://ahealedplanet.net/other.htm#skeptic) that he was on the payroll, and I consider organized skepticism to be a criminal enterprise (http://ahealedplanet.net/dennis.htm#criminal). As any serious student of the JFK hit knows, “skeptics,” without any significant exception that I know of, treat the Warren Report as gospel, and their patron saint is Max Holland (https://www.nytimes.com/2007/11/22/opinion/22holland.html?_r=2&oref=slogin&oref=slogin). They reserve their “skepticism” for anything that contradicts the official version of events.

It is easy to surf the Internet for a few minutes, find libelous articles, post them to my thread, put up a clever quote, and rest your case. Any teenager can do that.

If Noam and Ed, some of the most careful scholars in American history, can be smeared in the media for generations (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#cambodia), with outright lies told about their work and repeated endlessly, how hard is it to smear Dennis? Dennis openly mimicked P.T. Barnum (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#barnum) when I became his partner, so your P.T. Barnum quote is ironic to read. I have had to deal with attacks from the credulous, who believe everything that they read in the newspapers (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#big) (or Forbes), for more than 30 years, beginning with my mother (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=400492&viewfull=1#post400492).

For the record, Dennis’s assailants, without exception, avoid dealing with the two spectacular facts of Dennis’s efforts before I met him:

He sold the world’s best heating system (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#new);
He put it on his customers’ homes for free (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#sfs).

It is still the most brilliant business strategy that I ever saw or heard of, but, as usual, almost nobody is capable of understanding it. John Spickard (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=604&viewfull=1#post604) did, and so did the chairman of the board of American Express (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/113-The-Attention-That-We-Received-and-What-I-Probably-Still-Attract?p=1240&viewfull=1#post1240), but the list gets short after that. Greed and stupidity are the overriding qualities that you usually find in the business world.

It only takes a little scientific literacy to understand why it is the world’s best heating system to this day, and it does not take too much mental horsepower to understand why his marketing program was so successful. I could write all night about the credulous (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/94-My-last-posts-in-another-forum?p=639&viewfull=1#post639), why they will never understand, how the free energy field is in a state of arrested development (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#arrested), and the like, but I have better things to do.

I’ll keep on writing about those plane crashes.

Wade

Hi:

In preparation for more writing on plane crashes, I have been reading Rodney Stich’s Unfriendly Skies (https://www.amazon.com/Unfriendly-Skies-Centuries-Defrauding-America-ebook/dp/B001LRPXIA/ref=sr_1_22?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1535828960&sr=1-22). It is largely only a more scholarly version of Gary’s book. Stich began his odyssey as an FAA investigator (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#stich), and when he went public with his findings – that the airlines were criminally negligent, and that the FAA helped cover up crashes caused by that negligence – he then began to be approached by all manner of covert operative, former gangster, and the like. Stich then began getting in way over his head. He began exposing corruption at all levels of the American government, and they had to do something about it. Stich became a multimillionaire via real estate investing before they came for him. Their strategy was similar to what I heard Tom Bearden discuss 20 years ago (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#bearden), when he talked about how the Global Controllers (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc) keep the lid on free energy. They study their target, using game theory, look for the biggest chink in their armor, and then exploit it. In Stich’s case, it was an ex-wife who was greedy and criminally minded enough to go along with their plot, as they dangled millions in front of her. What my mother did (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page10?p=825&viewfull=1#post825) was gratis. And as with Gary, me, Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#jail), etc., the gangster judges in California made it all happen. How it happened in Stich’s case was that his ex-wife was approached by agents of the gangster judges, to engage in a legal charade by which her divorce from Stich, decades previously in Texas, would not be recognized by California, and the judges would then go after Stich’s assets through his ex-wife using the community property laws.

Strip away the money, first, and then the rest is pretty easy. They then kangarooed Stich into prison, with the same kind of lies and legal “logic” that I came to know so well in Ventura. And just as Gary wrote that the gangster judges were mainly Jewish, Stich encountered the same thing. Stich though that it might have been because of his Germanic heritage, but I think that he was being a little naïve there. Those Jewish mobsters did that as a normal course of business. It did not matter what ethnic heritage their targets had; they even did it to Jews. Mr. Big Time Attorney (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#bigtime) is Jewish, as is Dennis’s wife (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/81-Vignettes-from-my-journey-and-how-I-learned-what-I-did-and-came-to-my-approach?p=211&viewfull=1#post211).

Engineered plane crashes are just one facet of airplane disasters. In Unfriendly Skies, Stich documented planes being taken down by missiles, bombs, and the like. Stich devoted a chapter to the Lockerbie bombing and how it was falsely tagged on Libya. The West tried to murder Gadaffi for many years, and Stich wrote that the first major attempt was by the French, in 1980, when they shot down an airliner that killed 81 people near Sicily, because they thought that Gadaffi was aboard. Reagan tried to kill him in 1986 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1986_United_States_bombing_of_Libya) by bombing his palace, again under false pretenses that the American media, as usual, never reported (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#libya1). Obama and Hillary finally got their man (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#clark). He stood in the way of the West’s rape of Africa, and had to go. The Lockerbie bombing was Iranian revenge for the American shoot-down of an Iranian airliner a few years previously, and the trick was swapping out a suitcase full of heroin, on its regular run into the USA under the CIA’s auspices, with plastic explosives that took down the Lockerbie plane. Syrian operatives, not Libyan, committed the deed, and the media’s hypocrisy and complicity (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#airline) in those events beggar belief.

So, in that light, engineering plane crashes is just a day at the office, and I’ll cover several of them that I am aware of, which certainly have a little too much “coincidence” associated with them.

Been reading White Fragility (https://www.amazon.com/White-Fragility-People-About-Racism/dp/0807047414/ref=sr_1_1_sspa?ie=UTF8&qid=1535857847&sr=8-1-spons&keywords=white+fragility&psc=1)
It is a book about how a dominant in-group avoids talking about its dominance and its structural violence.

Speaking of structural violence npr has an article The Hidden Toll Of Conflict On Kids (https://www.npr.org/sections/goatsandsoda/2018/08/30/643410295/the-hidden-toll-of-conflict-on-kids) which uses the same methods that Amartya Sen and Jean Dreze use w.r.t. the excess child mortality of India vs China.

Very few people shine light on this important issue of excess mortality that Gideon Polya writes about. Still looking for a mainstream writer to take this up.

Hi Krishna:

Is that race book really that Marxian? It did not seem that way in looking at the blurbs. Maybe I’ll put it on the list. Of course, I am trying to end race (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#nations). :)

The Third Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal3) in general is hard on children and the elderly, as both are physically vulnerable in a number of ways, and warfare is doubly disastrous for them. That study is a step in the right direction. I have been writing for 20 years or so that the genocide in the Western Hemisphere (http://ahealedplanet.net/columbus.htm#genocide) that accompanied the European invasion had relatively little direct violence. Most was of the “structural” and low-intensity kind, of overwork and starvation leading to disease susceptibility and the like. Those who focus exclusively on battle deaths are missing the big picture, and sometimes intentionally.

When studying the Holocaust (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#toward), it became clear young adults had the best chance of surviving the physical rigors of the ordeal. That is also a big reason why young men are cannon fodder (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#business).

Yes, Polya (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#polya) is going to be a voice in the wilderness. Almost nobody wants to touch it, especially from the West.

Hi:

On plane crashes, the two most significant ones related to Gary’s account of the JFK hit (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#tower) are John Tower’s and Audie Murphy’s. Two of the five members of that meeting, and the two most prominent, died in plane crashes. As Stich’s Unfriendly Skies (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit/page2?p=1436&viewfull=1#post1436) makes clear, the FAA and National Transportation Safety Board regularly falsified the reports from their investigations of plane crashes, so like the Warren Report, the official explanations and “investigations” must be treated with great skepticism. John Heinz died in a plane crash (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit?p=1404&viewfull=1#post1404) the day before Tower did, and Gary wrote that he was working with both of them (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit?p=1404&viewfull=1#post1404) when they died. I remember when Tower and Heinz died, they died before Gary revealed Tower’s identity, and that “coincidence” seemed very odd to me. My circle remarked on it, and one actually contacted the Senate. Now, I know that the “coincidence” was odd indeed. If you read the official versions of their deaths (1 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audie_Murphy#Death_and_commemorations), 2 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Tower#Death), 3 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Heinz#Death)), those three men were just “unlucky,” and their deaths highlight the dangers of air travel. I don’t know what Gary’s evidence was, but he said that Murphy’s and Tower’s planes both had explosions in mid-air. Tower’s plane seems to have had a mechanical failure (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atlantic_Southeast_Airlines_Flight_2311#Accident) that led to its diving straight into the ground, just like Richard Heaton’s plane did (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit?p=1408&viewfull=1#post1408). Heinz’s crash was triggered by a problem in the landing gear (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Merion_air_disaster#Crash). Murphy was killed in a fiery accident attributed to pilot error (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1971_Colorado_Aviation_Aero_Commander_680_crash).

Tower’s and Heinz’s planes could well have been sabotaged. The official account of Murphy’s crash does not lend itself to the sabotage explanation, so maybe it was just a real coincidence. I’ll never know for sure, but Gary saw too many allies and others die in plane crashes. I’ll admit, however, that dying in plane crashes is not that unusual in the USA. Dennis met his wife because her boyfriend was Jim Croce’s manager (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page12?p=872&viewfull=1#post872), and he died in the same crash that took Croce’s life. Only a few months ago, I ran into a former colleague at my grocery store (http://ahealedplanet.net/links.htm#pcc), and during our conversation, she mentioned that her boyfriend had recently been killed in a plane crash. So, it happens plenty in the USA, in which foul play was likely not involved. Kathleen Kennedy died in a plane crash (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kathleen_Cavendish,_Marchioness_of_Hartington#Death), and Ted Kennedy survived a plane crash (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ted_Kennedy#First_years,_brothers'_assassinations), less than a year after Jack was murdered, and Joe Jr. also died in a plane (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_P._Kennedy_Jr.#Operations_Anvil_and_Aphrodite), although from a different kind of mechanical failure. Geez, Jack’s siblings had more than their fair share of hardship and untimely deaths. The day before I became Dennis’s partner, I worked for the Kennedys (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page3?p=614&viewfull=1#post614), at the foundation established for Jack’s sister who got a lobotomy (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rosemary_Kennedy#Lobotomy).

Flying is risky business, like mountain-climbing, hang-gliding, and other activities. In April, I took my niece hiking, pic attached (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1245540&viewfull=1#post1245540), and during our hike, I showed her where somebody had died a couple of years previously of a fall, somewhere on the small plateau where she is standing in that picture. As I showed her the likely places where the teenage boy fell (and the route to that plateau had a likely spot, which we traversed very carefully), I talked about how people die in the mountains, and it was almost always a stupid death, by falling, drowning, or getting lost and dying of exposure. I told her that animal attacks were a very rare occurrence, and that there had not been any fatal bear or cougar attacks in Washington in about a century. Well, the next month, a man was killed in a cougar attack (https://www.king5.com/article/news/local/cougar-attack-kills-one-2nd-man-in-satisfactory-condition/281-555709031) just a few miles from where we hiked that day, and my niece is now terrified about hiking around here. A cousin regularly walks on the same road where the cougar killed that man, and he now carries pepper spray with him, and I plan to go buy some today, in preparation for an upcoming backpack with my nephew. Less than a week before that fatal cougar attack, I took my niece out with her college roommates, only a few miles from where the attack happened, and I said that in the nearby mountains, somebody was likely dying on that day. I used to help maintain this lookout (https://www.wta.org/go-hiking/hikes/granite-mountain-1) (the year that I met Dennis) and somebody dies on that mountain nearly every year, and only a year or two after I helped maintain that lookout, a plane augured in on that mountain.

Back in 2006, I hiked with an Argentinian woman who was an ultra-marathoner who ran across the Andes, and she asked if it was dangerous for women to hike alone around Seattle, as far as assaults from men went. I replied that I had never heard of one in the area. As I said those words, the day before, a mother and daughter were murdered on a trail in the area (https://www.heraldnet.com/news/murder-case-is-cold-but-memory-still-burns/), which made the news the day after my pronouncement on how safe from assault women were on the area’s trails. For the rest of that summer, whenever I encountered women on the trail, they would not even make eye contact with me. So, it seems that the Trail Gods mock me when I say how safe it is. I have come close to meeting my maker (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=196769&viewfull=1#post196769) in the mountains a few times, but I plan to die in bed. :)

So, flying, especially in private planes, especially propeller-driven, has inherent hazards, but sabotaging planes is not that hard to do. Whoever seemed to keep sabotaging planes at the Santa Paula airport, and it may well have been Hetrick (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit?p=1408&viewfull=1#post1408), was good at covering their tracks, and the “investigators” may well have been compliant, turning a blind eye to the evidence.

During my studies, I came upon many untimely “isn’t that a coincidence?” deaths. One that comes to mind is Francis Gary Powers (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Francis_Gary_Powers), the infamous U-2 pilot who died when his helicopter ran out of fuel (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Francis_Gary_Powers#Death) right next to Ventura County, and Power’s son said that his death was due to an aviation mechanic’s “repairing” a faulty fuel gauge without informing Powers. Powers said that Oswald was present at his interrogations in the Soviet Union, and there is plenty of speculation that the entire U-2 incident was engineered by the CIA. Powers’s untimely death made The Hit List (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00C7XDYGU/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_hsch_vapi_taft_p1_i0), which McAdams predictably panned (http://jfkfacts.org/belzer-misses-the-mark-with-hit-list/).

Again, untimely deaths are sometimes merely untimely deaths, but there were so damned many around the JFK hit that you really have to wear blinders to chalk them all up to coincidence (Giancana (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sam_Giancana#Death), Ferrie (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Ferrie#Death), and de Mohrenschildt (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_de_Mohrenschildt#Death), to name only a few), and way too many plane crashes, even of airliners, have been very untimely in American politics. I’ll cover some of those in coming posts. The deaths of the Kennedy brothers themselves stretch the “coincidence” theory to the breaking point. What are those odds? Taken out by two lone nuts that never had any obvious motives? Reading the Warren Report, as it fumbled to give Oswald a motive, is very enlightening. It does not even rise to the level of pop psychology, as it reads like a Kangaroo Court effort, hopping and skipping through the “evidence,” connecting dots that have no business being connected, etc. Those accusing Gary of connecting too many dots with little evidence are invited to read the Warren Report’s tortured logic on Oswald’s motivation.

And, of course, the leading Magic Bullet skeptic on the Warren Commission, Hale Boggs (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hale_Boggs#Disappearance_in_Alaska), had his plane simply disappear in Alaska.

Hi:

Well, I just had a thread erased at a forum that I have been posting at (http://educationforum.ipbhost.com/topic/20494-bill-decker-and-john-tower/?do=findComment&comment=385252), soon after I was attacked by another member (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit/page2?p=1435&viewfull=1#post1435), whose “contribution” was linking to disinformation. All comers’ forums and I have never gotten along well, with the exception of Avalon (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1245540&viewfull=1), which is selective in who joins, which is why it is such a nice place to be. My work presses too many buttons for people, as they defend their delusions. The fruition of my work means the end of the end of the world as we know it (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5), and at some level of awareness, people understand that, so I get the attacks that I do. My experience at Wikipedia (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/105-My-Edward-Herman-biography-project/page4?p=1389&viewfull=1#post1389) is just more of the same.

Is that race book really that Marxian? It did not seem that way in looking at the blurbs. Maybe I’ll put it on the list. Of course, I am trying to end race (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#nations). :)

Not really sure what you mean by Marxian, it is a book about how "White Progressives" (Robin's words) have a hard time talking about race, their own privilege, and easily get upset when their unconscious biases are up for discussion.

She says that the mainstream definition of racism is wrong

"[The mainstream definition of] a racist is always an individual who consciously (must be conscious) does not like people based on race, and intentionally (must be intentional) seeks to hurt them. As long as that is our definition of a racist, virtually every white person is exempt from the system we are in."

The book does not need to be on your list.

Most was of the “structural” and low-intensity kind, of overwork and starvation leading to disease susceptibility and the like. Those who focus exclusively on battle deaths are missing the big picture, and sometimes intentionally.

Sen and Dreze write about starvation leading to disease susceptibility in Hunger and Public Action, that was the first time I learnt that most people die of disease in famines, not actual starvation.
I have seen people include famines and violent deaths for communist atrocities (leaving out any changes in day to day mortality under those governments). While for Western governments only violent deaths are counted in their tally. Thus excluding the Bengal famine of 1943 from the responsibility of the British. And omitting the difference in mortality between Britain and India completely.

Hi Krishna:

By Marxian, I meant what you wrote about the dominant class and its structural “advantages,” which I consider Marxian. What you write about the author’s ideas about racism are intriguing, maybe intriguing enough for me to get the book. We’ll see.

Yes, that people die of disease in famines is like how civilizations collapse (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#collapse). Cut off the energy flow, and the system will self-destruct from dynamics that aren’t often identified as an energy issue. Running out of energy was the ultimate cause (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ultimate) (whether from imperial theft, as we saw in India (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#bengal), or climate, or deforestation and desertification (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#earlycivilizations)), and the others were proximate or even “symptoms.”

Yes, there are gross double standards, the kind that Ed and Noam regularly wrote about, in tallying up Western death tolls versus non-Western (and especially enemy regimes) tolls, such as Pinker’s tripe (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#pinker).

Hi:

My journey is difficult to believe. Even I sometimes look back on my life and find it hard to believe, but I was there for it. :) Of the many lessons I learned, especially when I was in the saddle with Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=601&viewfull=1#post601), the most important, by far, was how abysmal humanity’s level of integrity is (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page6?p=708&viewfull=1#post708). For the relatively few who display any integrity, theirs is a long, lonely journey, which has led to early deaths and other outrages. Not only do the people running the rackets go on the attack, using their psychopathic minions (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#care), but the mob joins in. While writing this series on Gary and the JFK hit (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit?p=1398&viewfull=1#post1398), this has come up daily, beginning with JFK’s murder, as he was not capitalist and imperialist enough for the people who really ran the show, and he had to go.

Reading Stich’s Unfriendly Skies (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit/page2?p=1436&viewfull=1#post1436) for these recent posts has brought up memories that I sometimes wish I did not have, and feelings that are not fun to have. The great ones, those people of conscience (http://ahealedplanet.net/paths.htm#scouts) who could not acquiesce to the evil around them, always had hell to pay. My journey with Dennis was the big lesson, but after I survived those days and hit the books, I quickly encountered people such as Ralph McGehee (http://ahealedplanet.net/mcgehee.htm), Brian O (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm), Uncles Ed (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm), Noam (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#chomksy), and Howard (http://ahealedplanet.net/zinn.htm), Stich, and the few like them. Not only was there hell to pay from the top, but those around those people often abetted it, and that is the hardest part of all. What my mother did (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page10?p=825&viewfull=1#post825) was trivial compared to what others around me did.

To a great degree, I am carrying the torch for Dennis, Mr. Professor (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#adventures), Gary, Brian, and even Stich, as the last man standing. Other than at the oasis that Bill and friends built (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=91260&viewfull=1#post91260), my encounters on the Internet have generally been a barrage of attacks, some by professionals, such as Mr. Skeptic (http://ahealedplanet.net/purpose.htm#warning), and when I arrived in all-comers’ forums (only when I saw my work being discussed in what seemed a constructive manner), the trolls came running. In the midst of their attacks, as they hurled their disinformation stink bombs at me, those forums saw fit to ban me (http://ahealedplanet.net/critics.htm#troll), as I saw happen today (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page13?p=1438&viewfull=1#post1438). When the admins start in on me (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/94-My-last-posts-in-another-forum?p=639&viewfull=1#post639), it is time to go. This situation is merely reflective of that general level of integrity that humanity manifests these days. Righting the ship (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5) will be anything but easy.

Best,

Wade

Hi:

I’ll give some examples of the parallels between Stich’s journey, Gary’s, and Dennis’s, from chapters 8 through 10 of Unfriendly Skies (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit/page2?p=1436&viewfull=1#post1436). Stich wrote of how the CIA, Justice Department, Congress, and media worked in concert to take him out. Like Gary talked me out of (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit/page2?p=1421&viewfull=1#post1421), which led to Dennis’s release from Mr. Deputy’s clutches, Stich constantly beseeched members of Congress, and the best that he ever got was expressions of sympathy, but never any action. That was just like Greer reported (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/97-Steven-Greer-s-Latest-UFO-ET-Disclosure-Effort?p=938&viewfull=1#post938) from his briefings at the highest levels of government and other institutions. Nobody was going to do anything, claiming that it was bigger than them. They just looked forward to a comfortable retirement, and were not about to get involved.

Just like Gary reported, what I saw in court myself, and what Dennis reported to me after he got out of jail, the judges, prosecution, and even defense attorneys are all in on it together, and they all conspire together to fry the prosecutorial target. Gary told me of witnessing them erasing his testimony from the record, immediately after he said it, but Stich went further and described how transcripts would be altered to show the exact opposite of what the oral testimony was. The prosecutors lied out of both sides of their mouths as a matter of course, and in places such as Chicago, they openly defended their lying, saying that they had to lie in order to put the bad guys behind bars.

The prosecutors can simply make up charges from the thin air, and make them stick. In Dennis’s case, he watched the legal gangsters take his customers hostage in Seattle (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#hostage), and Mr. Big Time Attorney hostage in Ventura (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#hostage), to force Dennis to capitulate. Stich told how the legal gangsters would actually take family members hostage, by filing false charges against their target’s elderly parents or wife, to force their target to capitulate to the fabricated charges.

Like Gary reported, the court clerks would simply put Stich’s motions through the shredder, as they “lost” them. Once they kangarooed Stich into prison on the manufactured charges, he got diesel therapy (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diesel_therapy) and other niceties, at nearly 70 years of age and recovering from bypass surgery that had everything to do with the strain of those years. Stich wrote about how federal judges who refused to play ball with the Department of Justice themselves got taken out. In a way, Stich was “lucky.” With Dennis, the prison officials repeatedly tried to get Dennis murdered by the inmates (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#mistakes), and it nearly worked. Only Alison’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/81-Vignettes-from-my-journey-and-how-I-learned-what-I-did-and-came-to-my-approach?p=211&viewfull=1#post211) tireless efforts saved him (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#bizarre). But Stich wrote that the “normal” treatment of the inmates broke them, and Stich contemplated suicide at times, in the evil hopelessness in which he found himself, after thirteen long years of persecution for trying to alert the American public on how their safety had been compromised. The gangster judges feasted on Stich’s $10 million in assets, and his ex-wife’s participation drove Stich’s son-in-law to commit suicide. Oh, how I know the toll that it takes.

Stich quoted his attorneys, who said the same thing that Dennis’s did: “They can’t do that! (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit/page2?p=1423&viewfull=1#post1423)” I am not kidding; that exact quote is on page 438. Stich ended chapter 8 with a statement that could have been lifted from my writings (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#believing):

“Publishing the book and appearing as a guest and air safety expert on radio and television shows, I felt the truth would come out and the public would demand an investigation. I also used to believe in Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny!”

Stich eventually discovered that the CIA was behind what happened to him, and a CIA-front law firm in San Francisco filed the first bogus legal action against him, which was the beginning of his nightmare. It was the lawsuit that eventually nullified his divorce in 1966 in Texas, declaring it invalid in California. The law in question that they used had been declared unconstitutional by the USA’s Supreme Court for 50 years by that time, but that did not stop the skids from getting greased.

One of the hardest things for people like Stich to face was that the public largely did not care, even when it was their own safety at stake (or lives (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#doom)). That idea is one of the hardest to shake, and my partnership with Dennis began with his promotion of that delusion (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page3?p=624&viewfull=1#post624). A decade later, Dennis admitted to me that almost nobody really cared (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#tailings), but that he still sifted through humanity’s mine tailings, hunting for overlooked nuggets. Those lessons are why I gave up on any kind of mass movement effort (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level10) for what I am doing (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir). The effort has to aim far higher than seeking some self-serving lowest common denominator, which is why I constantly reject the naïve bright ideas (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#approaches) that free energy newcomers invariably advocate, and proselytizing to their social circles (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialcircle) is almost always their first misstep. Combined positive intention (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gcfocus) is the only approach with a prayer, but the people fit for that duty are very few and far between.

Back to more plane crashes.

Best,

Wade

Hi:

I am coming to the end of airplane crashes, and this post will discuss possible FBI and CIA complicity. Stich did not deal with it in Unfriendly Skies (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit/page2?p=1436&viewfull=1#post1436), but he briefly mentioned it in Defrauding America. Trenton Parker (http://educationforum.ipbhost.com/topic/16290-what-cia-pegasus-agent-trenton-parker-told-rodney-stich-in-1993/), the same CIA agent who told Stich that Larry McDonald had the tapes in which Hoover and friends were heard planning the JFK hit (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit/page2?p=1429&viewfull=1#post1429), said that McDonald revealed to the press that he had evidence that the CIA and high officials had been involved in drug trafficking from Southeast Asia since 1963, and that he planned to present the evidence after he returned from his trip to East Asia. McDonald died in the KAL Flight 007 crash (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Korean_Air_Lines_Flight_007), which became a huge international incident (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#airline) and one of the Cold War’s biggest events. Could that plane have been taken down to silence McDonald, for perhaps more than one reason? Could it have been one of those “kill two birds with one stone” events, in which they get to take out a gadfly (the hundreds of other deaths were merely “collateral damage”) and pin it on the Soviet Union? The vast majority of Americans just can’t go there. Most Americans believe that Oswald did not act alone, they believe that our wars in Southeast Asia were a crime (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#tragic), in which millions of innocent people were killed (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#early), but to think that an airliner would be brought down to kill one person, and the hundreds of others were simply “side-effects,” and was also used to score diplomatic points, crosses a line that few Americans will come close to touching. The dark side (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#serving) depends on the denial of the masses.

The most common and naïve response (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level1) to somebody’s hearing of free energy and its organized suppression (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#levels1) for the first time is denial that anybody would want to suppress something that would benefit so many (or that they even could suppress it). Their folly is the normal human behavior of projecting their motivation onto others, which even Jesus remarked on. All of my fellow Boy Scouts (http://ahealedplanet.net/paths.htm#scouts) were guilty of it, and it took my ride with Dennis to finally disabuse me of that naïve notion. Except that they really aren’t even projecting their own motivation, but how they think that their motivation should be, because the dark pathers are only taking typical human behaviors and motivations to their extreme. They are merely protecting their position. It is an evil position, but like all humans, they don’t want to lose their “job.” The global elite know that free energy means Game Over for their world domination (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#elitedisappear), and they don’t want to lose it.

The day of the Lockerbie flight (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit/page2?p=1436&viewfull=1#post1436), a bunch of State Department officials were booked on the plane but cancelled, when they were likely warned. That is similar to the Oklahoma City bombing, in which all of the BATF officials stayed home that day (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#okcity). The other passengers on the Lockerbie plane (including other American government employees), and the BATF support staff, didn’t get the warning. Stich reported that there were media reports after the Lockerbie crash that the CIA was quickly on site, posing as crash investigators.

Doug Caddy was roped into the Watergate Scandal by E Howard Hunt (http://educationforum.ipbhost.com/topic/20494-bill-decker-and-john-tower/?do=findComment&comment=321167), and Doug knew Hunt’s wife, who died in the crash of United Airlines Flight 533 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Airlines_Flight_553), also known as the Watergate Crash. One of Harrison Livingstone’s books (High Treason 2, chapter 20) devoted a chapter to it. The FBI was on the scene in minutes, even beating the fire department to the scene. It was the first time in history that the FBI took over a crash site. The suspicion is strong that CIA and FBI “clean-up crews” were at the scene of both crashes, performing cover-up duties.

If the CIA and FBI were involved in airliner crashes, taking down private planes with a few passengers is the small stuff, and there are many ways to make it look like an accident. Taking out gadflies such as Stich and Gary were just days at the office. Stich had done thousands of radio and TV shows when they took him out, first with the fraudulent lawsuit by the CIA-front law firm, and then he was easily kangarooed into prison. After Mr. Professor and I busted Dennis out of jail (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit/page2?p=1423&viewfull=1#post1423), he began raising hell immediately, and did hundreds of radio interviews (in those days, two close relatives told me that they heard him on the radio). The courts all quickly reneged on Dennis’s plea bargain (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#violate) and pushed his appeal all the way through the USA’s Supreme Court in record time, to put him in prison, where the prison officials repeatedly tried to get him killed by the inmates (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#mistakes). Gary not only wrote his book, but published a newsletter in Ventura County, and Gary named names. There is literally nothing outrageous or out of place in the events that Gary wrote that he witnessed. You can take the Gary’s reporting on the John Tower conversation (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit?p=1398&viewfull=1#post1398) to the bank.

Brian O’Leary was NASA’s most controversial astronaut, who became a gadfly soon after he quit the astronaut corps (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#after). I had quite an adventure (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=267098&viewfull=1#post267098) in getting his NASA biography (https://www.jsc.nasa.gov/Bios/htmlbios/oleary-bt.html) published, replete with political overtones (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog?p=284&viewfull=1#post284) and idiotic debunkery (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/91-Scientific-literacy/page3?p=556&viewfull=1#post556). When Brian hosted a UFO conference (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#attack), early in his free energy investigations and the year after I met him (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#meet), the military soon approached him and made him an “offer” to do classified UFO research for the military. Brian refused their kind offer and nearly died immediately afterward of a “heart attack (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page11?p=847&viewfull=1#post847),” in an incident that wrecked his health and shortened his life. This is just how it works for establishment gadflies, and I have rejected all invitations to Washington D.C., White House invitation (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#midlife) or not, where people like me often end up dead (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#activism).

So, that is all for now on plane crashes, and I have plenty more to write about Gary and my relationship with him.

Best,

Wade

Hi:

These events happened long ago, my memory is far from perfect, and reading Gary’s and Dennis’s books help as I think about those days. I contacted Stich back then, too, in those days of Internet innocence, before trolls and assailants reigned (http://ahealedplanet.net/critics.htm#troll). The second edition of Gary’s book came out in 1996, and I think that I bought it then, but I think that I read about Tower’s identity (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#tower) in Piper’s book first. I got those JFK books (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit/page2?p=1428&viewfull=1#post1428) as they came out in the 1990s. Not only did I become familiar with the prominent JFK theories and evidence, but I always measured them against Gary’s report of the Tower conversation (as well as his encounters with Ruby (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit?p=1399&viewfull=1#post1399)), and I never saw any piece of convincing evidence preclude Gary’s account. I have succinctly provided my views (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/91-Scientific-literacy/page3?p=541&viewfull=1#post541) on how I see the JFK hit, and won’t belabor it here. Every piece of evidence can be interesting in its own way, and I have discussed quite a few of them. For me, the most convincing pieces of evidence, which also bolster Gary’s Tower story, are these:

Oswald’s background screams military intelligence (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page8?p=770&viewfull=1#post770), from his learning Russian and playing “commie” while in the Marines (while hobnobbing far above his rank in Japan), to his “defection (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#nagshead)” to the Soviet Union, to his being welcomed back with open arms soon thereafter (to immediately engage in bizarre “commie” activities involving Cuba, designed to give him public notoriety), to the “friends” that he acquired when he returned, such as exiled Russian aristocrat de Mohrenschildt (who got him his job at the book depository). Oswald was up to his neck in military intelligence and CIA operations.
The key pieces of evidence that linked Oswald to the crime, particularly, the rifle, magic bullet (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page8?p=762&viewfull=1#post762), backyard photographs and the camera that allegedly took them, all appear to have been planted, in order to frame Oswald. The backyard photos (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#backyard) appear to have been composites, which had a high degree of sophistication for their time. It is legitimate to wonder how much of that was part of the retail plan, to portray Oswald as the failed assassin who fled to Cuba.
The evidence is very strong that JFK died in a hail of bullets, which came from multiple directions, in a crossfire ambush by multiple shooter teams, not two lucky shots from the book depository. The magic bullet theory is ludicrous, and the entire “lone nut” hypothesis rests on it.
The appointment of Allen Dulles (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#dulles) to the Warren Commission, who despised the man who fired him (http://educationforum.ipbhost.com/topic/20494-bill-decker-and-john-tower/?do=findComment&comment=321167), is only one of the more spectacular conflicts of interest in the entire affair. Dulles was the de facto leader of the commission, and he sent a “lone nut” book to the other members before they even convened. The Warren Report is a farce, which Bobby Kennedy understandably called a “shoddy piece of craftsmanship (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#jfk)”).
The Pegasus tapes (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit/page2?p=1429&viewfull=1#post1429), which identified Johnson (the wink recipient (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page8?p=767&viewfull=1#post767)), Bush the First, Dulles, Hoover, and Nelson Rockefeller as the primary conspirators, is no surprise at all. All of them had the motive, at minimum, to participate, and there is a great deal of circumstantial evidence that implicates them.
Witnesses died like flies (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit/page2?p=1437&viewfull=1#post1437), immediately after the JFK hit and during the Warren Commission’s existence, and another spate of untimely deaths accompanied the HSCA’s investigation. You have to be one of world’s biggest believers in coincidence to think that they were all unrelated untimely demises.
Evidence that later came to light, such as the Northwoods documents (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#northwoods), powerfully corroborated Gary’s account of the Tower conversation.
That Tower and Murphy died in plane crashes (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit/page2?p=1437&viewfull=1#post1437) are just two of the many tragic “coincidences” that have attended the JFK milieu.

Obviously, there is plenty more on the evidence front, but those were the most compelling lines of evidence that I saw during my studies. In my opinion, JFK was taken out by a domestic conspiracy that originated in the Eastern Oligarchy, and in the Rockefeller camp in particular. Dulles and fellow Warren Commission member McCloy served Rockefeller interests for their entire careers, as did the Bushes. JFK was not capitalist and imperialist enough for them, and had to go, and every president since JFK was a puppet (http://ahealedplanet.net/journey.htm#presidents) and knew it. Doug Caddy’s revelation (http://educationforum.ipbhost.com/topic/20494-bill-decker-and-john-tower/?do=findComment&comment=321167) that JFK was killed over the ET issue is not surprising (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ufo2), but I consider that to likely be a proximate reason, not the ultimate one. JFK tried to end the Cold War, and the ET situation was ancillary, but could have been a “last straw.” The Rockefellers intervened in my journey repeatedly, and David Rockefeller directly intervened (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page13?p=888&viewfull=1#post888) in the series of events that saw Dennis finally banned from the energy industry in the USA. I am glad that I did not sign up with Dennis that last time.

In 1997 or 1998, I was living in Seattle and working on what largely became my site today, and Gary called one day (he lived in exile in Oregon by that time). He and his wife treated me like one of their best friends, which I suppose I was, and Gary wanted to take their camper and come visit me, and somehow park their camper on my land. I lived in a condo, and there was not any place nearby to host them. To this day, I am sorry that the stars did not align for that. Around the same time, I was contacted by a retired policeman. People have come to me through many facets of my work, and I don’t think that that policeman came to me because of my Ventura days. He worked in Ventura as a policeman himself, but he became scholarly in his retirement, and I think that it was either my CIA or American history writings that attracted him to my work.

We began a correspondence, and he actually came to visit me. Somewhere along the line, the JFK hit and Gary came up during our relationship, and around 2001 (probably right after I first published my cover-up essay in June 2001), he decided to buy Gary’s book. I warned him that Gary was no scholar and went off on Jews late in his book, but that retired policeman took the plunge. He emailed me as he read it, and expressed his enthusiasm and appreciation. He recognized many names in Gary’s book, was not too surprised by Gary’s revelations, and for one significant event outside of a courtroom, which was in Gary’s book, that policeman was there too. He expressed his amazement that he was there for it, and he corroborated Gary’s account. That is the same policeman who shepherded Dennis’s drunken attorney home one morning (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit?p=1413&viewfull=1#post1413).

When he got to the part where Gary went off the deep end on Jews, however, that policeman did something that I am sorry happened. That policeman wrote an email to Gary and copied me in, asking Gary for his scholarly references for his allegation that Jews worshipped the devil! It was a sad moment for me, and Gary called me a few days later, I am sure to see if all was still well between us, which it was. That was the last time that I talked to Gary, which I believe was in the summer of 2001, not long before 9/11.

After 9/11, a lot changed in the USA, as America goose-stepped to the far right (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#wtc). Gary died in 2004 (https://billiongraves.com/grave/GARETH-L-WEAN/23786007), after the USA invaded Iraq, and the lead-up to the invasion was an agonizing time to be alive for any American who was the slightest bit awake. Those lying neo-cons, such as Wolfowitz and Perle (whom Brian once briefed (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#saic), and they had bizarre demeanors) were a sight to behold, and they were predominantly Jewish. I did not know until 2006 that Gary had died, but around the time of the aftermath of Iraq’s invasion (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#invading), which was completely based on lies and today stands as the greatest crime of the 21st century and is aptly compared to Germany’s 1939 invasion of Poland, that policeman wrote me and wryly observed that Gary might have been right about the Jews after all.

With this post, I will wind down my writings about Gary, me, and the JFK hit. I may add a coda post or two (such as Noam and JFK), but it is time to move on to other issues.

Gary came through in my hour of need (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit/page2?p=1421&viewfull=1#post1421), and for that, he will always be in my pantheon. I know that, in his own way, he sought justice. His book is largely only a less scholarly version of Stich’s books. I am as positive as I can be about anything that I did not witness (such as I have never been to the Moon, but believe that we landed men there using conventional rocket technology (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#apollo)), Gary reported the John Tower conversation as faithfully as he could, writing about it a decade after it happened. You can take it to the bank. In the milieu that we operated in, the Tower conversation is really a minor issue, almost a curiosity, although I can understand why so many Americans give JFK’s murder great importance. Our system’s corruption beggars belief (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit/page2?p=1440&viewfull=1#post1440), and people such as Gary, Stich, Ralph (http://ahealedplanet.net/mcgehee.htm), and others had hell to pay for exposing facets of that corruption. Noam and Ed (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#crv) played the game at the level of academics and had a relatively gentle ride, partly due to their prominence. Impressive scholars such as Ward Churchill (http://ahealedplanet.net/columbus.htm#churchill) fared worse, but the life-threatening and life-ending treatment was reserved for Gary, Stich, Ralph, Danny Casolaro (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#casolaro), Paul Wilcher (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#wilcher), and the few like them. They are my heroes, along with some other great men in my circle (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#adventures). They are all done or dead, I am the last man standing, and I am doing what I can to avoid their fate while still making a dent (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir). I plan this series of posts (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit/page2?p=1421&viewfull=1) to be my final testament to my relationship with Gary, who was one of the great ones. There have not been many like him.

Best,

Wade

Hi:

What to write about next? I’ll begin on the essay update this year, but I might not be done with it until 2020. As I did when originally drafting the big essay (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=733322&viewfull=1#post733322), I’ll put up draft sections as I write them. This update will be significant, but won’t change the essay’s basic thrust. The Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5) is just around the corner (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#brink), if enough people with the right stuff can do the work and come together with combined positive intention (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gcfocus).

I am besieged by people trying to get me to read this and that, and I don’t make it too easy for the public to contact me. I thankfully don’t get 30 invitations a day like Noam does, but I am only one man, I have to work for a living, and I am not getting any younger. Juggling my life with my life’s work is not easy. Maybe I’ll get in another 30 good years, like Uncle Ed did (he arguably wrote most of his political work (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#loot) after he retired), but we’ll see. Humanity likely does not have that long to keep doddering along toward oblivion (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#spaceshipearth), as the GCs play the Pied Piper (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc).

I am currently reading The Tangled Tree, which Krishna recommended (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1241768&viewfull=1#post1241768), and I can’t even recall how I got ahold of Environment, Power, and Society (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0231128878/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_bibl_vppi_i0). The Tangled Tree is popularized science and will be a breezy read for me. We’ll see what I learn from it. Environment, Power, and Society, however, is more challenging, but will be worth it. The author introduces many technical ideas in it. I could see it used as a textbook for a college survey class, maybe even post-graduate level.

To give an idea of how my year has gone, I got Brandon Sanderson’s latest Stormlight Archive book (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01NAWAH85/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_bibl_vppi_i0) when it came out last November, it has been next to my bed ever since, and I am finally nearing the end of it, almost a year later. That has been most of my recreational reading for the past year, sneaking it in here and there.

I have an essay to write on me, Ed, and the Left. Maybe I’ll wait until after the big essay update. I am currently planning a very abridged version of my big essay for a book, after I make the update. I know that my approach (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir) will work, if I can find the right people. Finding and training them will be the hard part. They are going to be few and far between (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialcircle), and what will help attract them is that high-level discussion, which really has not begun yet. I am making it up as I go, with a trial-and-error approach that is ongoing, more than 40 years after I first had my energy dreams (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#glimpse). If I don’t crack that nut, somebody else will have to, but the approach will work.

Beseeching the elites and institutions (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#beseeching1) is a loser for this, as is going after the masses (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level10). Neither has the right stuff. But for the few with the right stuff (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=308&viewfull=1#post308), they can make a dent, and nobody needs to risk their lives (http://ahealedplanet.net/lessons.htm#pursuing). Brian was planning on promoting my approach (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=918852&viewfull=1#post918852) before he died, and Dennis immediately knew that I was doing something different. Theirs were about the only opinions that I could respect on this issue. They comprised the voice of experience, and they are in my pantheon (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#adventures). There really aren’t that many in my pantheon (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit/page2?p=1442&viewfull=1#post1442), as people playing the game at that level, with the requisite integrity, are vanishingly few in today’s world, as they risk their lives and have them end prematurely all too often. That Dennis is still trying is nothing short of incredible. I have never met or heard of another like him (http://ahealedplanet.net/lessons.htm#howmany), and he has given the GCs many interesting days at the office. Of course, if he was ever “notable” enough for Wikipedia, the smear job on him would make the libelous article on Ed (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/105-My-Edward-Herman-biography-project/page4?p=1389&viewfull=1#post1389) look like a puff piece. That is the way of the world today, as exemplified by the troll who recently attacked me at that forum that I quit (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page13?p=1439&viewfull=1#post1439) after the admin erased my thread. I have had way too much of that over the years (1 (http://ahealedplanet.net/critics.htm#troll), 2 (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/94-My-last-posts-in-another-forum?p=639&viewfull=1#post639)). Once the admins start in on me, as they gang up with the trolls, some of whom are professionals, I am gone. It all makes me wonder if my use of the Internet has a prayer, which is increasingly a cesspool, but I am not ready to give up.

I can see a coda post or two to that Gary thread (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit?p=1398&viewfull=1#post1398), such as Noam and the JFK hit, and Gary and the Rodney King beating trial (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rodney_King#Charges_against_Police_Officers_and_trial). We’ll see.

Best,

Wade

Hi:

This will be a coda post to my Gary thread (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit?p=1398&viewfull=1#post1398). Gary and Noam are in my pantheon, but it does not mean that I agree with everything that they wrote about. There has never been anybody in my life like that, and I do not expect anybody to agree with everything that I write. We are all individuals, with our own personalities, talents, experiences, and the like. No two people are going to agree on everything, and that is fine. Can we agree enough on the important issues to get something important done? That is the issue, as I see it.

If you read much of Noam’s work, he goes off on the Kennedy administration all the time, and for reason. He even wrote a book titled Rethinking Camelot (https://www.amazon.com/Rethinking-Camelot-Vietnam-Political-Literary/dp/0896084582), in which he challenged the idea that the CIA would have been involved in JFK’s assassination, as the CIA is an executive branch agency that serves the office of the president. Little more than a week ago, Michael Parenti’s site went down, as the domain seems to have vanished. It is a grim day when Uncle Mike’s site disappears. So, two essays that I recently referred to by Parenti, on the JFK assassination, fortunately exist elsewhere (1 (http://portland.indymedia.org/en/2013/11/425854.shtml), 2 (http://bleiersblog.blogspot.com/2007/05/michael-parenti-conspiracy-phobia-on.html) - and in his book Dirty Truths), and I’ll refer to them when writing about Rethinking Camelot. Many times in my life and studies, I have watched people argue past each other. It is like they think that they are arguing with each other, but they aren’t. They each promote their position, and the other positions they see as contrary to theirs when they really aren’t, but deal with a different facet of the issue. I see it today in the Rousseauian versus Hobbesian views of “primitive” humans in anthropological circles, which I will discuss in my big essay update.

When I read Rethinking Camelot in the 1990s, and in my studies since then, I saw that split on numerous occasions. As I have written plenty, American presidents are puppets (http://ahealedplanet.net/journey.htm#presidents), in the dark and out of the loop on the vital issues that humanity faces. Noam would only partially agree with me. One of the “friends of Bill” told Greer (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/97-Steven-Greer-s-Latest-UFO-ET-Disclosure-Effort?p=938&viewfull=1#post938) that the consensus among Clinton’s inner circle was that if Clinton began pushing the UFO/ET issue, he would end up like JFK, so he stayed silent. No surprise there. All American presidents since JFK have known that they were expendable, but it is still a comfy throne to sit on. In my opinion, JFK was not that left, but he was not that right, either. In Rethinking Camelot, Noam underplayed the fact that JFK came into office with CIA operations in motion that were directly contrary to his wishes, and Africa is a great example that Noam did not deal with in Rethinking Camelot.

For every post-war president through Nixon, JFK was the only one who did not privately call blacks “niggers.” Eisenhower presided over the decolonization of Africa, as Africans threw off their Western shackles, or at least tried to (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#chaos). Eisenhower privately referred to the leaders of those new African nations as “niggers,” did not want them invited over to the White House (and always found an excuse to be out golfing if any did come over), and he actually ordered the murder of the first elected leader of the Congo, Patrice Lumumba (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patrice_Lumumba), whom JFK greatly admired. Of course, Allen Dulles had a heavy hand in that decision, and Lumumba was murdered just before JFK took office, but was not told until he had been in office for a month. An eventual CIA station chief drove around with Lumumba’s body in his car’s trunk, wondering what to do with it. There is a famous photograph (http://www.orwelltoday.com/jfkcongophone.jpg) of JFK’s getting the news in the Oval Office (http://www.orwelltoday.com/jfkcongo.shtml), and his anguish is evident. Allen Dulles’s CIA had Lumumba murdered just before JFK came to office, because they knew that he would never approve it. In a direct about-face from Eisenhower’s policies, JFK had dozens of African diplomats over to the White House, and often took them into his private quarters to meet Jackie and their children. African leaders never had a greater presidential ally than JFK. JFK was no communist, but he also respected the freedom of those new African nations to choose their own way. He tried to sell the West to Africa, with programs such as the Peace Corps.

The Bay of Pigs operation was already in motion when JFK took office, and when it was launched, Dulles and friends knew that the operation would not be sufficient, but thought that they could goad the new president into calling in open American military support. The CIA tried overthrowing the French government mere days later (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit/page2?p=1434&viewfull=1#post1434), which spurred JFK to take a trip to France, where Jackie entranced de Gaulle, with her fluent French and Hollywood appearance. The next year, de Gaulle was nearly killed in an ambush of his motorcade that seemed very similar (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_de_Gaulle#Assassination_attempts) to what happened in Dealey Plaza the next year. When de Gaulle attended JFK’s funeral, he was certain that a similar assassination operation to the one that took out JFK was also tried on him.

JFK surprised them all by refusing to escalate the Cuban situation and taking public responsibility for the failure. It won him lasting animosity among the hawks, including E. Howard Hunt, who ran the Bay of Pigs operation, and the failure cost Allen Dulles his job, but he was never out of the loop, as his underlings still ran the CIA.

The next year, humanity came the closest that it ever did to a nuclear holocaust, and JFK kept his hawk military advisors from escalating a situation that may well have turned into a very short-lived World War III (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#wwIII). The same year, the Pentagon cooked up Operation Northwoods (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#northwoods), which was obviously never acted on by JFK. To the contrary, he told his hawks that any actions against Cuba were off the table. Hunt’s grand plan (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#tower) was either the CIA’s parallel operation or its offspring. It was to be the ultimate goad to get JFK to do the CIA’s bidding on Cuba.

JFK tried to end the Cold War, got the Test-Ban Treaty signed (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comprehensive_Nuclear-Test-Ban_Treaty), proposed a joint mission to the Moon with the Soviet Union (https://www.history.com/this-day-in-history/kennedy-proposes-joint-mission-to-the-moon), and began back-door diplomacy with Khrushchev, none of which were dealt with in Rethinking Camelot. In fact, as I read Rethinking Camelot, I recognized CIA and Pentagon operations that JFK did not approve of. When Diem was murdered (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ngo_Dinh_Diem#Coup_and_assassination), JFK was as distraught as he was when he heard about Lumumba’s murder. JFK was not nearly in control of events, and especially at the CIA, as Noam argued.

The likes of JFK’s campaign against U.S. Steel has not been seen again in the Oval Office, until now (https://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2016/12/jfks-dangerous-playbook-for-trump-214547). JFK definitely angered the Eastern Oligarchy, and especially Rockefeller interests, as David became JFK’s public policy adversary (read Battling Wall Street (https://www.amazon.com/Battling-Wall-Street-Kennedy-presidency/dp/1615779604), for instance).

I’ll agree with Uncle Mike on this one (http://bleiersblog.blogspot.com/2007/05/michael-parenti-conspiracy-phobia-on.html): while JFK was not far enough left for the left, he was not nearly far enough right for the right. Also, they had the means to take him out, and they did. Uncle Ed was onboard with the idea that JFK was taken out in a conspiracy (https://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Edward_S._Herman#Doublespeak_Dictionary_(within_Beyond_Hypocrisy)), and he was intrigued by Gary’s Tower conversation. I consider Doug Caddy’s reporting of the Hunt conversation (http://educationforum.ipbhost.com/topic/20494-bill-decker-and-john-tower/?do=findComment&comment=321167) to be fact (that had to be the strangest conversation in Doug’s life), but the ET issue (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ufo2) was likely related to JFK’s efforts to end the Cold War, and was likely related to JFK’s plans for a joint mission to the Moon. The Soviets likely knew about as much about ETs as the USA did. I consider Hunt’s “alien presence” comment to be a “last straw” issue at most, not the ultimate reason for why JFK was taken out.

I could write a lot more on this subject, but that is enough for now.

I’ll deal with Gary and the Rodney King beating trial in the next post.

Best,

Wade

Hi:

If I am not going to see events in the same way as the world’s leading intellectual for the past 50 years (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit/page2?p=1444&viewfull=1#post1444) does, whom I have immense respect for, then I am not going to agree with anybody all the time, and here is a coda post on Gary, and maybe my last one, or, at least for some time. My position on Gary’s writings has always been that if he said that he saw something (such as the John Tower conversation (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#tower) or his encounters with Jack Ruby (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit?p=1399&viewfull=1#post1399)), then you could take it to the bank. When he played detective or analyst, then he was on the same footing as the rest of us, putting the puzzle pieces together.

I don’t know what Gary’s evidence was for the Murphy and Tower plane crashes (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit/page2?p=1437&viewfull=1#post1437), as far as sabotage goes, and those crashes and the Heinz crash, as well as the dozens of untimely deaths of JFK-related witnesses and suspects, I put in the “what an amazing coincidence” category (with tongue-in-cheek a little :) ). Maybe the Lyman Smith murders (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit?p=1408&viewfull=1#post1408) were only coincidental, in that the gangster judges didn’t have Smith murdered, which they did not shrink from when necessary, and a serial killer just happened by their house one evening. Maybe Eugene Mallove’s murder (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#portland), only a few days after he committed to being our conference’s first speaker, was merely another bizarre coincidence, as was Brian’s nearly dying (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page11?p=847&viewfull=1#post847) immediately after rejecting the “offer” to do classified UFO work for the military, and the people making the offer had access to exotic weaponry to make murder look like a “normal” death, and there is evidence that they used it on Brian.

Maybe the erasure of key events and people in Dennis’s life (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit/page2?p=1429&viewfull=1#post1429), such as his wife and children, and falsely describing what Dennis was convicted of (failing to file a form (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#violate) became “fraud”), accidentally moved him into the medium security shark tank, and it was only a coincidence that a serial murderer in maximum security was suddenly transferred into medium security to be Dennis’s bunkmate. Neither Dennis nor the serial killer believed that it was a coincidence. The serial killer refused to do the bidding of the prison officials, and Dennis became his best friend instead. When Dennis was moved to another facility, the prison officials staged the biggest contraband raid ever on that facility within hours of Dennis’s being transferred there. The inmates then pronounced Dennis as a snitch, and further pronounced a death sentence on him if he stayed. Dennis left, to only have the prison officials keep putting him right back where his life had been threatened, and the only way out that the officials offered him was to snitch on those who threatened him (which would have signed his death warrant, as protective custody was no protection in that prison, if the inmates wanted you dead). Dennis got “lucky,” and only had some fingers broken and teeth knocked out.

I could go on for days (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#activism) on “coincidences” like that. I lost my naïveté (http://ahealedplanet.net/conun.htm#naive) long ago, and am highly skeptical of all official explanations, no matter how reasonable they seem, no matter how ironclad their evidence seems to be, particularly when people with reasons to be targets meet untimely demises or have other catastrophes in their lives. As Brian said, there are hundreds of ways (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#tactics) of making those deaths and disasters look “natural,” and in the free energy field, untimely demises are rampant (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#deadinventors). Maybe those plane crashes were mere tragedies, and the crash investigator reports are genuine and honest. But if you read Rodney Stich’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit/page2?p=1437&viewfull=1#post1437) Unfriendly Skies, any faith that you might have had in honest crash investigations will be shaken. They can make it up as they go, just like in Kangaroo Court (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#jail).

That said, I like working with evidence, and I don’t know what Gary’s evidence was for many events that he wrote about, such as that Arlen “Magic Bullet (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page8?p=768&viewfull=1#post768)” Specter was the person who monitored Hunt’s grand plan (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#hunt), in order to interpose it and turn a fake assassination into a real one, but I’ll report that Gary wrote it, as I did for those “coincidental” plane crashes.

But there were events and situations that we were both spectators for, in which I wondered about how Gary interpreted it, and one was the Rodney King beating trial (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rodney_King#Charges_against_Police_Officers_and_trial), which is one of American history’s most infamous trials. It happened only a couple of years after Dennis was coerced into that plea bargain, and Dennis would soon be kangarooed into prison soon after those cops were exonerated, which led to days of rioting and murder. I lived in Ohio at the time (http://ahealedplanet.net/trucking.htm#footnotes) and watched California’s travails almost with amusement; it couldn’t have happened to a more deserving state, and Ventura County became justly famous. When the trial was moved from LA County to Ventura County, I figured that it was because Ventura County’s officials could be counted on to fix the trial, which they were experts at. Everybody on the jury was a cop-supporter (1 (http://www.famous-trials.com/lapd/584-home), 2 (http://www.nydailynews.com/news/national/jurors-rodney-king-tape-article-1.2201822)). Gary had been on the receiving end of jury stacking in Ventura (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit/page2?p=1421&viewfull=1#post1421), so I figured that he could spot it a mile away, but I was wrong. Gary was an LAPD cop himself, so had cop sympathies.

Gary was “retired (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit?p=1408&viewfull=1#post1408)” by then, and the gangster judges had not yet stolen his gas station, store, and bar (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit/page2?p=1431&viewfull=1#post1431) from him, and Gary sat in the public seating for the entire trial. Gary later wrote that the jury could see that the cops were victims of the system, which was why they acquitted them. In one way, I have my doubts, in another, I see Gary’s point, but my understanding was that the jurors had cop sympathies, and that was enough to get them to see things the cops’ way. I don’t know what Gary saw in that courtroom, but to attribute a sophisticated political understanding to the jury, and having that understanding lead to their acquittal of the officers, seems a bit of a stretch to me. But Gary was there and I wasn’t, so I won’t dismiss his idea, but I am a bit skeptical of it, although jurors with cop sympathies could certainly draw on a wide array of presented “evidence” to exonerate them, when almost nobody else on Earth could see what they saw. Gary’s interpretation and mine parallel the “lean” versus “rich” interpretations of animal behavior (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#intelligence). Gary favored a richer interpretation of what those jurors thought, while I think that a leaner one is probably correct.

In the 1990s, when Gary and I talked on the phone, he said things such as if the men trying to make it big in the USA’s capitalist game (Gary likened it to a gold rush) understood how rigged it was, that they would rise up and fix the system, rid it of the gangsters, make it fairer, and the like. I strongly believe that that was Gary’s motivation for doing what he did, as I have now seen it many times. Gary was outraged by the evil that he encountered, and he thought that when others understood, that they would rise up and do something about it. That was the same naïve notion that Dennis had (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page3?p=618&viewfull=1#post618) when I became his partner (but on the positive action end of it, not the outrage part), and I believed it too, until it was beaten out of me. It was the same naïve idea that Rodney Stich had (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit/page2?p=1440&viewfull=1#post1440) (I once believed in the Easter Bunny (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#believing), too :) ), the same one that Ralph McGehee had (http://ahealedplanet.net/mcgehee.htm), and that all of my fellow Boy Scouts had (http://ahealedplanet.net/paths.htm#scouts), as we happily labored under the delusion that people really cared about something other than their immediate self-interest (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page6?p=708&viewfull=1#post708) (or their in-group’s welfare (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ingroup)), and when they learned the truth, that they would do something about it. Brian never quite shook his belief in mass action (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level10) to make free energy happen, and he was codependent on Washington, D.C. (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#early) until his life’s end.

In a late-life interview, Uncle Ed (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm) said that the motivation behind his work was largely outrage. Our folly was thinking that the public would share our outrage and do something about it. That is not how the world works, which we all learned the hard way. People simply don’t care, particularly in a world of scarcity and fear (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#coming). All that they care about is their immediate welfare, and maybe those in a close circle around them. That is tough medicine to swallow for idealists, but it is the truth. I resisted that lesson (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#burn) every step of the way, until I had it beaten into my head in no uncertain terms. I am highly sympathetic to naïve idealists who labor under that delusion, and my target audience is disillusioned idealists (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/52-Helpful-Prerequisites-for-Forum-Participation?p=97&viewfull=1#post97). They have to have woken up (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=309&viewfull=1#post309) before they will be of any use for what I am trying. Otherwise, they go rushing down the well-trod paths of disaster (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#approaches), blithely unaware of where they are heading with their bright ideas (and they violently deny the truth when it is pointed out to them), as they proselytize to their social circles (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialcircle), even the “hippest” ones. Virtually all of my best students go through that phase, as we all did.

My wife has insisted that I take some time off from writing, and this is my last post for a couple of weeks, and might be my last one for a while on Gary, me, and the JFK hit. I wanted to do justice one last time regarding Gary, who is in my pantheon, and then move on, like I have for Ed (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm), Brian (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm), Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis?p=574&viewfull=1#post574), and others. I have an essay to write on Ed, me, and the Left, but it can wait until after I finish my big essay update, which is years overdue, and which I plan to begin on when I return to public writing. I might not be done with that update until 2020, as there is a lot to update. The stack of relevant books and magazines is now several feet thick, which I have read since my last essay update.

Best,

Wade

Been reading books by R. J Rummel (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rudolph_Rummel) his bias towards the West easy to see, however I will take his assessments of the deaths caused by Authoritarian states, communist China, USSR and Vietnam as true estimates are in the same range as Black book of Communism around 100 million.

He fully misses reduction in mortality from increase education (and health care) in communist China, USSR, Vietnam. It was worth skimming through his books. No mention of Amartya Sen's comparison of child deaths in China and India.

Cheating just a little…

Hi Krishna (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1246950&viewfull=1#post1246950):

Yeah, Rummel was a right-wing nut case. Of course, his Wikipedia article is hagiographic (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rudolph_Rummel), while Ed’s is libelous. Ed showed how (http://www.coldtype.net/Assets.12/PDFs/0812.PinkerCrit.pdf) Pinker used Rummel’s wildly biased work and did not even mention Drèze and Sen, in Pinker’s propaganda book on declining violence (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#pinker). Well, The Black Book of Communism “only” estimated 20 million Soviet deaths (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Black_Book_of_Communism#Estimated_number_of_victims), while Rummel estimated over 60 million (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rudolph_Rummel#Democide). A bit of a discrepancy. The Black Book’s estimates on Cambodia and Vietnam appear to be exaggerations, and while I have not read it, I would be surprised to find a credible analysis of the American role in those deaths, as well as in North Korea. And 150,000 communist deaths in Latin America? Where? The only communist regime that the USA has suffered to exist in Latin America is Cuba, and they don’t have any kind of toll like that; a few thousand is likely the real number. So, The Black Book does not impress me, either, and neither did it impress Noam (https://web.archive.org/web/20160921084037/http:/www.spectrezine.org/global/chomsky.htm) or others (1 (https://medium.com/@discomfiting/debunking-communism-killed-more-people-than-naziism-7a9880696f67), 2 (https://maoistrebelnews.com/2011/08/10/the-black-book-of-communism-debunked/)). It seems that the book’s editor tried to get to 100 million dead by using every dishonest trick in the book.

There are some more silver linings to my work on Ed (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm). At Bing, when you enter “Edward S. Herman,” my Wikiquotes page (https://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Edward_S._Herman) on him is the fourth result that comes up. When you Google Ed, my bio of him actually shows up on the first page of results (at Bing, it is on the second page). That is a first. The libelous, imperial hacks at Wikipedia have not entirely prevailed. At his employer’s site, the University of Pennsylvania, their obit on Ed (https://almanac.upenn.edu/articles/edward-s-herman-wharton), which comes up just ahead of my bio, had some significant errors (his second effort with Noam came out in 1979, not 2015, and McChesney had nothing to do with The Myth of the Liberal Media, but he co-authored an earlier book with Ed). But, at least Ed’s employer did not slam him.

It looks like Prop 9 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Prop9) and his pal simply gave up with editing Ed’s bio. The trolls prevail for now. Wikipedia is a travesty on subjects like Ed. As a coda to Krishna’s participation in this situation, he asked me to further formally give the rights to my writings to Wikipedia, which I did. Krishna was going to try the arbitration route at Wikipedia regarding their censorship of my work. He had to establish another account to do it, and he was very open about who he was and why he had to do it, and Wikipedia permanently blocked his account (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Krishna_Pagadala), accusing him of sock-puppetry. Krishna did nothing of the sort. Sock-puppetry is faking accounts, which Krishna did not do (that is similar to the false “canvassing” charge that the Wikipedia administrator levied against me, as he erased my work).

My and Krishna’s treatment at Wikipedia is their version of Kangaroo Court (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit/page2?p=1440&viewfull=1#post1440). They can simply make it up as they go, and play judge, jury, and executioner. So, death camp Nazis get hagiographic treatment at Wikipedia (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/105-My-Edward-Herman-biography-project/page4?p=1389&viewfull=1#post1389), while Ed’s bio is libelous (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Edward_S._Herman#Philip_Cross%E2%80%99s_edits), and any attempts to rectify the situation has the book thrown at it by Wikipedia’s administrators. The trolls and intelligence agents do not even need to roll out of bed, as Wikipedia has their backs. Similarly, a troll recently attacked me at another forum (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page13?p=1439&viewfull=1#post1439), and the administrator then erased my thread. This is just a reflection of how our world really works. Justice, truth, fair play – these are all quaint concepts that have been discarded as people play their zero-integrity games. It only reinforces my journey’s primary lesson (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page6?p=708&viewfull=1#post708). The masses will not be any help at all (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level10) for what I am attempting, nor will the world’s institutions (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#beseeching1). It is just what it is, and denying that reality (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level1), or judging it (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#judge1), is not productive. Acceptance is the first step toward enlightenment on these issues.

Best,

Wade

Hi:

I am back to writing publicly, after that little break. My focus will now be on updating my big essay, which might not be completed until 2020. We’ll see how it goes, but I have a lot of material to cover in my essay update.

Writing about Ed (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/105-My-Edward-Herman-biography-project?p=1089&viewfull=1#post1089), Gary (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit?p=1398&viewfull=1#post1398), Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis?p=574&viewfull=1#post574), Brian (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/110-Brian-O-Leary-Mars-and-the-Moon?p=1209&viewfull=1#post1209), Noam (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#chomsky), and others in my pantheon (Uncle Mike’s site (http://michaelparenti.org/) is back up! :) ) is a happy time for me, but it is time to focus again on the task at hand, which is helping manifest the biggest event in the human journey (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5). I live in a time when humanity will either fly or crash and burn (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#spaceshipearth), and the outcome is far from certain. I have to do what I can, and nobody has ever tried my approach (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir) before, so I feel a great responsibility to make a worthy effort with it. I may make a graphic to show who my target audience is and how my approach differs from anything that has come before. The Dennises, Greers (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/97-Steven-Greer-s-Latest-UFO-ET-Disclosure-Effort?p=938&viewfull=1#post938), and Brians generally either tried to reach the elite (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#elitedisappear) or the masses (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level10). Neither group has the right stuff (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=308&viewfull=1#post308) for this task and, as always, it hinges on the integrity issue (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page6?p=708&viewfull=1#post708). I don’t seek heroic levels of it (http://ahealedplanet.net/lessons.htm#howmany), but enough so that my target audience can put aside its in-group conditioning (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ingroup), do the work to gain a comprehensive perspective (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/63-Developing-a-Comprehensive-Perspective?p=82&viewfull=1#post82), and learn to sing (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir). That’s my game. If the choir can form, the rest will be easy.

All parts of the big essay will get updated, and some makeovers will be significant, although the essay’s basic thrust will not change. I am going to use the concept of emergent properties (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#specialists) to describe what emerged with each Epoch. And the emergence of each Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochaltable) was completely dependent on the rising energy surplus that each Epoch’s energy practices produced. Without tapping that new energy source (fire (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#fire1), megafauna (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#meateroi), farming (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#kebaran), fossil fuels (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#coaluse)), the next Epoch could not have happened. All of those salubrious aspects of the Fifth Epoch cannot appear (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#necessity) unless free energy first appears. That is where I decisively break with nearly all social activists (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/96-Human-sociality-and-free-energy?p=925&viewfull=1#post925), New Agers (http://ahealedplanet.net/purpose.htm#newage), and others. Reshuffling the deck of scarcity, or some “new” mystical (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm) understanding, is not the answer. The masters said it all long ago (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#nature), and I am not going to improve on it, nor will anybody else. Maybe humanity will finally learn its lessons and become a truly sentient species (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#sentience1).

So, my forum posts will be around the subject matter of my essay update. It is far from a narrow focus, so it won’t be boring. As I did when drafting my big essay, I’ll put up revised sections as I write them.

Here are some of the topics that I will cover in my revision:

Quantum physics (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#vonneumann) will get more attention.
Science’s constantly improving toolset (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#toolset) will be expanded on.
There will be more on the philosophy of science, including Kuhn (https://blogs.scientificamerican.com/cross-check/what-thomas-kuhn-really-thought-about-scientific-truth/), Popper (https://blogs.scientificamerican.com/cross-check/the-paradox-of-karl-popper/), and Feyerabend (https://blogs.scientificamerican.com/cross-check/was-philosopher-paul-feyerabend-really-science-s-worst-enemy/).
There will be a great deal more about cosmology (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#formation), particularly how star systems form, including ours, geology, and early life on Earth (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#life). The days of early life is a particularly fascinating subject, if for no other reason than it laid the foundation for all that came after it, including us. The echoes of that time can be seen everywhere in our world, including in our bodies.
I’ll be writing more about evolution (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#darwin), and mass extinctions (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#extinctions) in particular.
I’ll be writing more on events in the eon of complex life (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#cambrian), and some subjects will include the role of oxygen (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#oxygenation) and climate changes and what caused them.
The move of plants (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#landplants) and animals (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#landanimal) to land, the development of land-based ecosystems, and the rise and fall of ecosystems, as adaptive radiations (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#adaptive) and mass extinctions (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#extinctioncauses1) played out, will get more coverage.
The respective rises of reptiles (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#synapsid), archosaurs (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#lystrosaurus1), and mammals (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#mammalsdevelop) will get more coverage.
I think that most readers regard the above subjects as filler before I get to the “good stuff” – people – but those subjects are vital to developing the comprehensive perspective that I think is needed for people who are going to be useful for my Epochal task. The big essay’s first half (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#midpoint) is as important as the last half, IMO. That said, the last half will likely see the most change, beginning with the journey of primates that led to those erect apes (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#bipedskull) that became tool-users and tool-makers (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#stonetool1) extraordinaire. The line from chimps to humans (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#chimpsplit) will get a lot more attention. Cognition will be a bigger topic.
The rise of humans in the First Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal1) will get a lot more coverage and deal with many new findings. The rise of big-brained apes may be the most significant event in the history of life on Earth. It laid the foundation for all that came after it, as those apes dominated Earth like no species ever did.
The Second Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal2) will get more coverage. The conflict of the Rousseauian versus Hobbesian views of humanity is alive and well, and I’ll cover that issue much more in the update. I’ll write more on the human-caused megafauna extinctions (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#australianmegafauna); new findings increasingly support the view that humans were the ultimate cause (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ultimate) of those extinctions, with climate change and other causes proximate at most. It probably did not matter what the climate did as humanity conquered Earth.
The Third Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal3) will get a big makeover, maybe the biggest of any chapter, but the Fourth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal4) will also get a makeover. I can see new chapters forming for those Epochs, to break it into more digestible pieces. There will be a lot of new material, and I will organize those chapters a little differently. Will something like the material in Ed’s bio (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm) make it into the big essay? Maybe, but I already deal with it a bit.
There will be more on how humanity faces an energy catastrophe (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#running) and the abyss that we stand on the edge of (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#spaceshipearth).
I doubt that I will make many changes to the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5) chapter, or the chapter on how to manifest it (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#worked). They comprise the capstone of the essay, my most original contribution to the essay, and the chapters preceding it are largely intended to make those chapters comprehensible. My basic views on those chapters have not changed appreciably and I doubt that they will. They were 40 years of training (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=601&viewfull=1#post601), adventures (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#adventures), and study (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page7?p=739&viewfull=1#post739) in coming (and lots of writing practice! :) ), and are my primary contribution to the milieu. I know that my approach will work, if I can find the right people and help train them. That will be the hard part, and my big essay is the textbook for my effort.

It took two years for the lightbulb to go on for Krishna, after I published my big essay, and he had been reading my work for a dozen years before that. It is not easy to get to that lightbulb moment, even for those who are trying to understand, and Krishna still has a long way to go. It took 40 years from my first energy dreams (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#glimpse) to publishing that essay, and I learned as I went along. I am highly sympathetic to how hard it is to understand my work. I don’t see it as an intellectual challenge so much as a challenge of integrity and being able to shed one’s conditioning. Very few people (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialcircle) are willing and able to do that, which I learned the hard way. There are many ways to fall of the rails and fail to escape one’s conditioning, or wander into the many minefields that await naïve (http://ahealedplanet.net/conun.htm#naive) and unwary seekers. My work is designed to shorten their learning curves and keep them out of trouble (http://ahealedplanet.net/conun.htm#pitfalls). A book may follow the essay update, which will be an abridged version of my big essay. I gave up on writing a book back in 2001, but that idea is back on the table.

So, with that, it is back to work on my Epochal task. We will see how much of a dent that my merry band and I can make in the next 30 years or so, if I am lucky.

Best,

All of those salubrious aspects of the Fifth Epoch cannot appear (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#necessity) unless free energy first appears.
Yes. Our physics needs a ground up reworking, the most important technological consequence of which will be a new, radically (100's or 1000's) more efficient means of production of useful energy. Like water desalinization or gas and oil drilling, the water, oil or gas was there all along, but it needed to be extracted, concentrated, transported, and put to good use.

Various technologies for propulsion, shelter (for various human activities in more hostile environments), computing, materials and chemical transformations, computation, communication and so forth all become conceivable and practical that were neither before, with only our current (public) physics and consequent technologies.

I also figure that a ground up reworking of our monetary system is essential. I think of money as being like the hydraulic fluid of our economy, the means by which the pressures and potentials of our human civilization are stored, moved and controlled. I would expect that a "free energy" powered civilization, still controlled by the Money Masters of long standing, who use debt-money as their preferred "economic hydraulic fluid", would be a potential disaster of immense proportion.

Unfortunately, unraveling that topic would be another lifetime's work, and most of us only get at most one lifetimes work done per life.

Thanks Paul (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1249820&viewfull=1#post1249820):

My experience and studies have shown me that it is usually the other way around, in that the technology comes first, and then the science later. Steam engines preceded thermodynamics (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#industrial) by more than a century, leading scientists called Edison’s light bulb impossible (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#edison), the house organ of science ridiculed the Wright brothers (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#wright) and their “impossible” airplanes while they flew. There are microscopes a century old (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#rife) that orthodox scientific theory still cannot explain (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#naessens) (so, better to attack and ignore them), and transmutation and other experiments (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/89-Free-energy-psychic-abilities-and-the-skeptics-and-debunkers?p=422&viewfull=1#post422) that show how awry orthodox theory is. And that is the tame stuff. What my friend was shown (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#underground) turns the physics textbooks into doorstops. Electrogravity and other technologies (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/97-Steven-Greer-s-Latest-UFO-ET-Disclosure-Effort?p=1355&viewfull=1#post1355) would blow away almost any scientist today.

So, the coming science will largely be a consequence of the new technologies, not a cause. I can pretty much guarantee that none of the alternative physics models today will survive in light of those technologies, as well as the orthodox theories. I have heard that what my friend saw were crude reproductions of the good stuff, and the Black Project scientists probably have barely any understanding of any kind of theory behind those technologies, kind of like a dog trying to learn calculus.

We can barely imagine what science in the Fifth Epoch will be like, although we have some hints (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#visions), here and there. Religion as we know (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#religion) it will also become obsolete. I write plenty about what is easily feasible in the Fifth Epoch, and some will be the end of elites (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#elitedisappear) and money (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#exchange). Both will become obsolete, along with nations (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#nations), cities (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#cities) as we know them, race will disappear, etc. Moving part technology is in its last days. You are already seeing it in computing. Sparky’s gizmo (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ideal) was solid state.

I may make a table in the essay update on what features of human society existed in which Epochs. Slavery was purely a Third Epoch phenomenon (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#southseas). Elites will be a Third and Fourth Epoch phenomenon, and will become obsolete in the Fifth (and the GCs (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc) know it, which is why they have been so avid with the suppression). I suspect that reading as we know it will become obsolete in the Fifth Epoch, as it is bypassed by far better means of learning and communication, like those kids in that Fifth Epoch school learned (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?32399-A-Future-Earth&p=672748&viewfull=1#post672748).

Thanks Paul (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1249891&viewfull=1#post1249891):

Einstein thought that his theories, like all theories, would eventually die at the hands of new facts, but that the best parts of his theories would survive in the new theories. Yes indeed, those intriguing fringe theories that you digest likely do have glimmers of the coming theories in them. When I read quantum gravity, electric universe, subquantum kinetics, undulation, and other theories, I think that some aspects of them may prove valid and become part of the corpus of the new theories, at least for a while. :)

That said, what I have witnessed (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#research), heard of through direct participants, and read about has led me to suspect that the Fifth Epoch’s physics will have these features:

It won’t be materialistic, and in particular, consciousness will have a place in the theories, and maybe even a Creator;
Something like an ether will ride again;
With the electrogravity (AKA anti-gravity) demonstration that my friend received (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/97-Steven-Greer-s-Latest-UFO-ET-Disclosure-Effort?p=1355&viewfull=1#post1355), in which electromagnetism and gravity are conjoined, and the ZPF (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#zpf) technology that powers it, that is getting very close to some kind of unified field concept.
There will be relativistic and quantum aspects of the new theories, as each of them grasped an aspect of the whole, but only an aspect.
The greatest science of all will become the science of consciousness. I have witnessed some amazing psychotronic demonstrations, and the bad guys use psychotronic technology to kill people (http://ahealedplanet.net/journey.htm#adamiak), which is a demonstration of where a lack of love will take people (their afterlives will not be pleasant (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#hell), nor will their immediately subsequent lifetimes, and I may be writing from experience (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#atlantis) on that score). The coming high physics will be based on love (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#greatest), which is the energy of creation, and the scientist and the mystic will unite or at least become allies. The greatest breakthroughs in science and technology often had flashes of insight (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#flash) and altered states to thank for them. That “creative moment” and psychic ability are very close cousins, if not the same thing.

I think that in the secret labs, something along those lines has already been developed, although the high physics likely eludes them, as they don’t have the proper orientation for it. What my “mystical (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#seth)” sources told me, long before my friend’s mind-blowing demonstration or seeing Greer’s Disclosure Project (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/97-Steven-Greer-s-Latest-UFO-ET-Disclosure-Effort?p=938&viewfull=1#post938) witnesses describing those technologies, was that “our” Black Project technologies are only crude reproductions of the ET technology that we “captured,” and until our understanding of consciousness (and love) grew by a few orders of magnitude, we would still make primitive copies, but our crude technologies are still plenty to usher in the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5), or for fans of Kardashev, we can become a Type 1 civilization (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#kardashev). If we turn the corner instead of crash and burn (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#spaceshipearth), this world (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?32399-A-Future-Earth&p=672748&viewfull=1#post672748) is not too far off, although I won’t live to see it in this incarnation.

Hi:

I’ll be starting on the big essay update work soon, and might be fairly quiet between publishing revised sections. We’ll see how that goes. Here are some odds and ends from while I was quiet. Ed had some thoughtful tributes and assessments (1 (http://mediatheoryjournal.org/tom-mills-the-legacy-of-edward-herman/), 2 (https://www.free-simone-and-laurent-gbagbo.com/single-post/2017/12/12/Edward-S-Herman-Fourth-power-in-the-name-of-truth)), and as I Googled Ed yesterday, my bio (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm) came up as the fourth result, ahead of even his Wikiquotes page (https://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Edward_S._Herman). We’ll see how that plays out over the years.

On that physics (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1249947&viewfull=1#post1249947) issue, quantum strangeness (https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-018-06749-8) will not go away anytime soon.

Climate and human environmental harm is a not a new subject (https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2018/09/how-the-west-was-lost/569365/). My grandparents and favorite aunt (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page8?p=914&viewfull=1#post914) were driven from Kansas (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#kansas) by that human-created Dust Bowl, and some members of my mother’s side were also environmental refugees from deforested Sweden (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#sweden).

Recent Ediacaran research (https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-018-06767-6) is resolving some issues on the early years of animals (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#animals).

Krishna has been tutoring me on education (http://history-world.org/history_of_education.htm) (1 (https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/freedom-learn/200808/brief-history-education), 2 (http://pure.iiasa.ac.at/id/eprint/11681/1/IR-15-007.pdf)) and brain plasticity (http://www.pnas.org/content/114/27/6904#sec-4). I am big into the nurture aspect of development. Those Fifth Epoch students (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?32399-A-Future-Earth&p=672748&viewfull=1#post672748) were likely genetic marvels, but their schooling gave them those IQs of 200 or so. As I stated in my previous post (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1249947&viewfull=1#post1249947), science and consciousness are on a collision course, and brain science is in its infancy.

Early human evolution is increasingly seen as happening in different places, with plenty of interbreeding among the variants (https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-018-0455-x), before behaviorally modern (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#leap) people wiped that slate clean (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#europeinvasion).

Mainstream science takes on the “skeptics” a bit (https://blogs.scientificamerican.com/cross-check/dear-skeptics-bash-homeopathy-and-bigfoot-less-mammograms-and-war-more/), for very good reason (http://ahealedplanet.net/dennis.htm#friends).

Good stuff (https://lorenzoae.wordpress.com/2016/05/31/chomsky-vs-parenti/) on Uncle Mike and Uncle Noam. In one of his last interviews, Ed was asked about how he and Noam did not always see eye to eye, and Ed said that his exposures of the so-called “liberals,” such as the Cruise Missile Left (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#cml), made Noam uncomfortable, as it tended to “fragment “ the left. Noam said the same thing about the idea that JFK was taken out in a conspiracy, particularly one hatched amongst the CIA and friends. I have made my views clear on that (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit/page2?p=1444&viewfull=1#post1444). Noam is a man of his time, like all of us. If Noam got the show that my friend did (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#underground), his tune would change dramatically.

I am going to be very busy for the next two months, and my posts will suffer for it, as I am making working on the essay update a priority, and section revisions will likely be my chief posts over the next year or so.

Best,

Wade

Some quotes from your interview with Bill and Kerry Wade, that I greatly appreciate. It greatly helped me to understand some important things.

WF: When I asked somebody: “How’d they do that?” They said: “Well, they have satellite technology that can surveil the whole planet. Anybody taps into this ZPE field, they know it.” So I’m like: “Oh. OK."

I think that the people that really need to awaken here, as Wade often suggests, that the only people that seem to awaken and are able to peel the free energy onion are people that are already somewhat sentient and have had experiences in a number of different avenues – not only science, or not only being a political progressive – but that people somehow need to go through many, many different experiences in a variety of ways before they can even embrace the possibility that this could happen.

Hi Valerie (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1250015&viewfull=1#post1250015):

My Camelot interview with Brian (http://ahealedplanet.net/camelot.htm) is probably going to be my life’s favorite. I won’t get a chance to do that again. That was an example of Brian’s wise and perceptive nature. We learned that the hard way, over many years. Dennis played the P.T. Barnum (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#barnum) and Indiana Jones (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#jones) of Free Energy, while Brian played its Paul Revere (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#revere). They risked their lives many times on their journeys, and carrying their spears was not only among my life’s greatest honors, but it was a learning experience that you can’t buy.

On my list of tasks is writing a series of posts on getting from belief to knowledge (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1242547&viewfull=1#post1242547). That can only be done through experience, the kind that you can’t get in the cubicle, watching TV, or surfing the Internet. What Brian said in that interview was a short version of my choir prerequisites (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=308&viewfull=1#post308). That list (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/52-Helpful-Prerequisites-for-Forum-Participation?p=69&viewfull=1#post69) was developed over many years of experience. Study has its place, but experience comes first. I could write a wide-ranging post on this subject, but Brian put it succinctly. Not many people have what it takes to initiate a new Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5), not with this much at stake (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#sixth), not with this much organized opposition (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#levels1), not with this much inertia in the slumbering masses (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level10), whose horizons of awareness end at the limits of their immediate self-interest.

On the satellite surveillance, while I never entertained the idea that you could sneak past them (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level7) (an adolescent fantasy, IMO), testimony from people such as Mark (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=811647&viewfull=1#post811647) showed the utter folly of thinking that you can. Satellite surveillance was no big surprise, and I heard that from somebody who should know.

Wade

Hi Valerie (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1250052&viewfull=1#post1250052):

I always have a certain respect for people using their real names on the Internet, even the trolls. That “sneaking past them” comment was not directed at you, and know that because you are interacting with me at all (privately, pseudonym – it doesn’t matter), you are on the GCs’ (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc) radar. Their surveillance capabilities are second to none. But they just watch, read, and listen. Nobody who interacts with me should have fear of any intervention because of that. They can get in trouble in other ways, such as proselytizing to their social circles (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialcircle), but what I am doing is designed to be low risk to the participants, if they can refrain from going out and “doing something.” They just need to do the work to develop that comprehensive perspective (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/63-Developing-a-Comprehensive-Perspective?p=82&viewfull=1#post82).

Of course, I am attacked wherever I appear on the Internet (here are some recent examples: 1 (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/94-My-last-posts-in-another-forum?p=639&viewfull=1#post639), 2 (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/105-My-Edward-Herman-biography-project/page3?p=1368&viewfull=1#post1368), 3 (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page13?p=1438&viewfull=1#post1438) – and the admins always piled on, working hand-in-hand with the trolls or being easily manipulated by them), but that just comes with the territory, and there is no GC influence on those events, but just the manifestation of the low integrity level of the general public (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page6?p=708&viewfull=1#post708). Only at a protected forum like Avalon am I not subjected to troll attacks (http://ahealedplanet.net/critics.htm#troll).

Just so you know, I treat the GCs (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc) and their minions as forces of nature, and they are not my focus. IMO, any effort that makes them a focus will fail, for various reasons. As Brian said, it is all about combined positive intention (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gcfocus). In an effort like mine generates any momentum, the GCs will simply slink away. But Lone Rangers are easily taken out.

Hi:

Here is a good article on energy and humanity (https://ourfiniteworld.com/2018/08/02/supplemental-energy-puts-humans-in-charge/). What was interesting for me was equating energy scarcity with rising economic inequality. I have said the same thing in different ways (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#running), and now I recall that it was that article where I heard about Odum’s work, which I am currently reading. It was interesting to see ideas that I have written about, with realizations that were original to me, have been written about in slightly different ways by others. That author, Tverberg, also wrote a recent article (https://ourfiniteworld.com/2018/08/27/how-energy-shortages-really-affect-the-economy/) on how energy shortages lead to economic decline and war. It is interesting to see that the UK’s energy consumption per person has declined by a quarter over the past generation. In that article you can see how also, like how fracking is merely sucking at the dregs (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#dregs) of the USA’s hydrocarbon deposits, the quality of coal extracted has been continually declining since 1970 (when Peak Oil was reached in the USA (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#hubbert)), with the rise of sub-bituminous coal and lignite, which now exceed bituminous coal and anthracite, which is the best coal but has never been that plentiful. Tverberg is good at showing the relationship between the financial and real economies. One runs on money, but it is only derivative of the real one that runs on energy. In the Fifth Epoch, the financial economy will simply disappear (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#exchange), like how slavery disappeared in the Fourth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#southseas).

I mentioned before that I contacted her years ago (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/24-Chapter-17-Humanity%C2%92s-First-Epochal-Event-Growing-our-Brains-and-Controlling-Fire?p=1426&viewfull=1#post1426), along with other financial bloggers who understand the relationship between energy and economics. She was the only one that I heard back from, but nobody really wants to hear about the solution that dwarfs all else, which is so great that it will make humanity a Type 1 civilization (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#kardashev), in the biggest event in the human journey (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5). Hardly anybody has what it takes to begin to wrap their minds around that situation, but I seek the few who can (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialcircle).

Hi:

I am reading The Tangled Tree (https://www.amazon.com/Tangled-Tree-Radical-History-Life/dp/1476776628) and The Evolution of Childhood (https://www.amazon.com/Evolution-Childhood-Relationships-Emotion-Mind/dp/0674062019), and reading them reminds me of Seth (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#seth), Sheldrake (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog?p=270&viewfull=1#post270), and Rife (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#rife). Seth said that killing experimental subjects and then dissecting them actually went backwards in a scientist’s understanding of life. Rife’s experimental subjects were his pets. They did not die at his hands. Sheldrake had a little different take on the subject, describing how his training included putting animals in blenders and then hunting for an enzyme in the mix. Tearing life apart that way, down to its tiniest bits, to study them was a reductionism that did not serve to understand how life worked. Seeing the pieces working in an organism was far more informative.

Our current scientific practice is spiritually degenerate and also fails to understand some basic aspects of how life works. As I have written on the differences between Rife’s and Naessens’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#naessens) microscopes and electron microscopes: do you want to see movies of life or snapshots of death? In The Tangled Tree, microbes were put into blenders, to tear them apart and then hunt for molecules to study. In The Evolution of Childhood, you can read of experiments where they removed the neocortex of rats, to see if they still play when that part of their brain is removed, to see how far back play is in their evolutionary journey. Today’s science is full of evil experiments like that. Oh, to live in this world (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#naessens).

The current issue of Scientific American has a series of articles on how to fix science. While the articles were steps in the right direction, I have long noted the naïveté that always bleeds through the pages of Scientific American, as it is with all mainstream publications. One article was on medical science and how it has been corrupted by funding sources (such as cigarette companies funding “research,” which goes way back (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#cigarettes)) and secrecy. Other articles were on unreproducible research, sexual harassment of female scientists, how unstable the lives of young scientists are, and how science is still too siloed and needs to become more interdisciplinary. Good topics, but trapped in orthodoxy, and the labs of the Black Projects will never be fairly treated in Scientific American. On one hand, because they are Black Projects, they are not publicly available, but when I see mainstream treatments of places such as Area 51 (if it ever had the good stuff, it is long gone from there), it is always with declassified documents, if that, which is a naïve approach. The good stuff is never declassified and is usually privatized so that it never even gets into the classified stream of documents. What my friend saw (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#underground) was very likely privatized, and those technologies would completely upend today’s science, especially physics. Scientific American will never go there. Today’s science has so far to go (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#orthodox).

Hi:

I have written about the issue plenty, and will expand on it more in the big essay revision: the controversy between the Rousseauian and Hobbesian views of “primitive” humans is alive and well. To an extent, both camps are arguing past each other. Violence is part of our evolutionary heritage and is economically mediated. That should not be too hard to understand, but I constantly see the battles between the Rousseauian and Hobbesian views. When there was relative plenty, there was peace. When there was relative scarcity, it could get violent. This goes back at least as far as chimps and bonobos. Chimps constantly war with their neighbors (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#coalitionary), to slaughter them and take their land and fertile females. An increased energy supply and fertile females were big wins for chimp societies (at least for their males). When gorillas left the area and those isolated chimps no longer had that competition for food, then bonobos evolved (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#bonobo1) when their food supply doubled, and females ended male domination. Key aspects of the human journey, to this day, can be seen in the chimp/bonobo split.

To argue that humans are naturally peaceful or naturally violent is to miss the point, IMO. Humans have the capacity for both, and it has everything to do with economics. Give everybody a billion dollars, which is what free energy is equivalent to (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5), and violence and warfare (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#peacekeeping) will quickly become obsolete. It is not going to make any sense any longer. The psychopaths will no longer rule, as they do today (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc). They can only get humanity to play along (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#goering) when they are easily coerced by scarcity, and they know full well what free energy means: the end of their game (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#elitedisappear).

During the year or so that it takes me to write my big essay update, I’ll still do some other posts, and one will be to resume my orthodoxy/fringes thread (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/121-Orthodoxy-the-Fringes-Structuralism-Conspiracism-Materialism-Mysticism-etc?p=1336&viewfull=1#post1336), and this post will start a thread that I said that I would write on, to go from unawareness to belief to knowledge. Regarding free energy, I took that journey. When I had my first energy dreams (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#glimpse), free energy was not part of them. I had never heard of it before. When the voice in my head had me move to Seattle (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#voice2) and I landed in the middle of Dennis’s company, free energy was still not on the agenda. The first time that I ever heard of free energy was when Dennis played a Joe Newman clip for us (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=602&viewfull=1#post602). Joe might have had something, but he suffered from megalomania, which is a common hazard of the free energy pursuit (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#messiah). When I drove out to Boston to chase Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=611&viewfull=1#post611), free energy was the furthest thing from my mind. The day after I got there, and we watched hot water generating electricity (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=613&viewfull=1#post613), I did not understand the free energy implications until Dennis told me about it some days (maybe even weeks) later. I was far from sure that Dennis’s idea would work, brought out Mr. Mentor to assess the idea (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page3?p=621&viewfull=1#post621), and he eventually proposed his own (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#marry). Then the fireworks began, and in the next year, my life was ruined (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#mr). I was radicalized during the process, and before I left my home town, to never return, I heard of Sparky Sweet’s gizmo (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#sweet) from a scientist who observed it, and the next year, I talked about it with Brian O (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#meet). It was in those days that I heard of Tesla (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#tesla1) for the first time, as I began the studies that led to my public writings.

In the 1990s, a close friend got a show (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/108-The-Global-Controllers?p=1173&viewfull=1#post1173) from what was likely a faction of the GCs (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc). Years later, I saw Greer’s Disclosure Project witnesses (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/97-Steven-Greer-s-Latest-UFO-ET-Disclosure-Effort?p=938&viewfull=1#post938) describing the same technologies that my friend saw, and my friend does not even believe in ETs, but what he saw was likely produced by reverse-engineering ET craft. I recently heard of Greer’s describing the antigravity technology that my friend also had demonstrated (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/97-Steven-Greer-s-Latest-UFO-ET-Disclosure-Effort?p=1355&viewfull=1#post1355). Years later, when I described that show to Brian (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#underground), his response was “So, he got a show from the spooks.” In the circles that I ran around in back then, getting a show like that was not a big deal. I heard people such as Mark (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#underground) tell their tales, watched UFOs with James Gilliland (http://ahealedplanet.net/ufo.htm), and have had so many experiences in that milieu that the reality of free energy technology is something that I know, at least as much as I can without having the technology power my home.

Almost none of my journey from unawareness to knowledge came from study, but through experience. But the journey outlined above I would not recommend to anybody. It was life-wrecking and life-risking, and I have many dead fellow travelers (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#deadinventors) whose lives where shortened because of their involvement in that milieu. It is not for dabblers, the idly curious (http://ahealedplanet.net/purpose.htm#curious), etc.

This is just one more part of the conundrum (http://ahealedplanet.net/conun.htm#summary). One common event is a newcomer approaching me and asking where he could go see a free energy machine working, and then he will believe. How naïve (http://ahealedplanet.net/conun.htm#naive). The most lucrative technology in world history (http://ahealedplanet.net/risk.htm#quadrillion), which is subjected to the greatest cover-up in history (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#big), is just out there, waiting for the newcomer to go see it.

So, how can somebody go from unawareness to knowledge in this field? They can jump in with both feet, how I did (if a voice guides them to it), and if they survive the experience, they will learn. But again, I don’t recommend that path. My prescription is an amalgam of experience and study, weighing the available evidence, and developing a comprehensive perspective (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/63-Developing-a-Comprehensive-Perspective?p=82&viewfull=1#post82), but people have to already have been awakened (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=309&viewfull=1#post309) for that study to mean much. Otherwise, they are trapped in various belief systems (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#dominant). Ultimately, it cannot be about belief, but about knowledge, and you can’t get that in your armchair.

I will write on this topic (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/125-The-Journey-from-Unawareness-to-Knowledge?p=1456&viewfull=1#post1456) periodically while I work on my big essay revision.

Best,

Just pondering India and China again, while I have been reading Tombstone (https://www.amazon.com/Tombstone-Great-Chinese-Famine-1958-1962/dp/0374533997/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8)

Life expectancy selected countries (https://www.google.com/publicdata/explore?ds=d5bncppjof8f9_&met_y=sp_dyn_tfrt_in&hl=en&dl=en#!ctype=l&strail=false&bcs=d&nselm=h&met_y=sp_dyn_le00_in&scale_y=lin&ind_y=false&rdim=region&idim=country:CHN:IND:LKA:JAM:BGD:NPL:PAK&ifdim=region&hl=en_US&dl=en&ind=false)
Child Mortality (U5MR) in selected countries (https://www.google.com/publicdata/explore?ds=d5bncppjof8f9_&met_y=sp_dyn_tfrt_in&hl=en&dl=en#!ctype=l&strail=false&bcs=d&nselm=h&met_y=sh_dyn_mort&scale_y=lin&ind_y=false&rdim=region&idim=country:CHN:IND:NPL:PAK:BGD:LKA:JAM&ifdim=region&hl=en_US&dl=en&ind=false)

I have known that China was ahead of India in life expectancy, but seeing that China was 13 years extra years of life expectancy of India (in 1976 the year of Mao's death) is still astonishing.
Likewise in 1976 U5MR was 80 in China vs 188 in India, India has U5MR of 81 in 2003 27 years later.

This should not surprise me given that I read Hunger and Public Action 15+ years ago. But it does.

When gorillas left the area and those isolated chimps no longer had that competition for food, then bonobos evolved (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#bonobo1) when their food supply doubled, and females ended male domination. Key aspects of the human journey, to this day, can be seen in the chimp/bonobo split.

Bonobos... hmmm. The doubling of food supply allowed for changes in group size, most notably females could forage together and form alliances. Female alliances reducing aggression have also been observed in chimps, however that does not last because of they need to forage independently which makes them vulnerable and breaks the alliances.

Why are these alliances not seen in monkeys? Clearly bonobos and chimpanzees have greater cognitive ability. The strangest part of bonobo behaviour is the lack of aggression towards outsiders, Frans de Waal was saying Bonobos are xenophilic, Vanessa Woods and Brian Hare have done experiments where bonobos show a preference for sharing food with unknown bonobos.

This also means that when the climate turns, the weakest individuals in every group dies, but most groups survive and are not wiped out. This leads to group selection of behaviour.

This has analogies to our current state, where we are on the edge of wiping ourselves out. Another form of group selection of behaviour. No wonder humanity cannot overcome the emergent properties of its behaviour, they are a product of evolution over 1 million years.

It has to be the few who can overcome the biological predilection and social conditioning.

Hi Krishna (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1251091&viewfull=1#post1251091):

Ever since that Founder Group left Africa (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#founderexit) and spread across the planet, different societies had different fates. Ian Morris focused on Eurasian peoples, primarily in the Third Epoch, and energy capture, with a bullet, was the primary determinant of their various fates. Once the energy “platform” was established for each Epoch, then how each society fared was partly dependent on other traits, such as urbanization and literacy (which was still energy dependent, as only some kinds of energy situations (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#up3) lent themselves to the formation of civilization), and Morris used war-making ability as a key measure (Fuller’s suicidal trait (http://ahealedplanet.net/roots.htm#livingry), which should disappear in the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#peacekeeping)).

Morris lauded Pinker’s propaganda tract (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#pinker), which was a black mark against him, but to his credit, Morris is not an anticommunist ideologue (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#cataclysm). He showed that energy capture, not the political-economic ideology of capitalism or communism (purely an exchange game (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#exchange)), was the most important determinant, and he showed how successful communist China was in advancing its people’s welfare. I am no expert in the divergence between India and China, but the sense that I received during my studies is that two centuries of being raped by Britain (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#bengal) directly led to the misery that you still see in India today. China was not raped for as long, and had two millennia of being politically unified. I think that that goes a long way toward explaining the differences, particularly the mortality and life-expectancy stats that you cite.

On monkeys, they are dominated by female alliances, as they are matrilocal societies, although chimp and bonobo politics are obviously much more sophisticated, as your pal de Waal discovered. The patrilocal societies that lasted from gorillas through Second Epoch humans (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#patrilineal1) were an innovation, and while scientists don’t quite know why patrilocal societies formed, it had to be for economic reasons. Bonobos (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#bonobo1) created something highly novel in that they remained patrilocal but went from male to female dominance, and thereby became the peaceful chimps, and I strongly doubt that they could have done it without their food supply’s doubling. Females just aren’t killers like males are, and that likely had to do with group defense and fighting over mating rights (which is why scientists think that simians, including humans, are dimorphic), as well as what it takes to care for infants. Females are built to nurture (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#masculine), not kill.

We are supposedly a sentient species (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#sentience1) and can consciously choose our way, but no human society has ever risen too far above the base reality of its energy capture practices. Economic constraints have always been the primary constraints over all human societies for all time, and that has always been rooted in energy capture. What I find very interesting, and will write more about it in the essay update, is that each Epoch was founded on tapping the new energy resource, and each Epoch had its trajectory, not only of depleting its energy resource (it arguably even happened in the First Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#migrate1), although it was so long ago that the evidence is thin today, but it is clearly seen in the other Epochs, including ours (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#industrialdecline)), but also had social/technological/cognitive changes that were unique to that Epoch, emergent properties, if you will, that often disappeared in the next Epoch, but other emergent traits also helped lead to the new Epoch. An example that I frequently use is how slavery was unimaginable in the Second Epoch, became a hallowed institution in the Third (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#slaverybeginning), and became obsolete in the Fourth (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#southseas). Each new Epoch was simply unimaginable to the people living before it came (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#imagine), even though for the Fifth, we have some hints (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#visions), not the least of which is my work (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5). :)

So, yes, there are evolutionary reasons for the state of the human animal today, but the difference between Second and Fourth Epoch humans is only one of economics. Put a Second Epoch infant in a Fourth Epoch society, and that infant will grow up to be a normal member of that society. And yes, not many people are willing or able to overcome their conditioning and evolutionary past and dare to even imagine the coming Epoch. It was that way for every Epoch. People just tried to survive. There have been almost no Epochal “visionaries” in the human journey. Not even the people who initiated the previous Epochs had any idea what they began. If an effort like mine is successful, for manifesting the Fifth Epoch, imagining it, as a way to help manifest it, will be unprecedented in the human journey, and it is a fitting way to become a Type 1 civilization (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#kardashev).

And yes, as you noted in finishing that second post (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1251192&viewfull=1#post1251192), not many people have what it takes to overcome their evolutionary and socialized inertia. I realized many years ago (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page6?p=708&viewfull=1#post708) that I was looking for needles in haystacks (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialcircle), and even Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#tailings) and Brian (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1250015&viewfull=1#post1250015) came to suspect it. The social approach (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/96-Human-sociality-and-free-energy) will not work; only combined positive intention (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gcfocus) will.

Hi:

I finished The Tangled Tree (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1246032&viewfull=1#post1246032) today. It read more like a biography of Carl Woese (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carl_Woese). Woese identified Archaeans (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#treeoflife) as a different branch of life, but then the hypothesis of the symbiosis that led to eukaryotes (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#mitochondria) muddied the waters of Darwinian evolution (that event was not descent with modification), and then horizontal gene transfer (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horizontal_gene_transfer) wrecked the idea of a nicely branching tree of life (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horizontal_gene_transfer#Challenge_to_the_tree_of_life). Woese railed against Darwin’s work late in his life, and considered himself Darwin’s peer. Not much of that book will make it into my essay update. It is one of those books that probes the personalities and politics of science. As such, those kinds of books can be informative on the process and history of science, but I was hoping for a little more from it. For scientific and scholarly books, I often make a page of notes as I read them, but I did not make any notes for The Tangled Tree until the last chapters.

I expect to have a very different experience with Howard Odum’s posthumous magnum opus, the update of Environment, Power, and Society (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0231128878/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_bibl_vppi_i0). I can tell that there is a lot of meat there, and it is one of those books that is heavy in concepts, which I will have to go deep on, even at this stage of my energy writings. Just today, as I was reading something related to it, I realized that I had one of his books (https://www.amazon.com/Prosperous-Way-Down-Principles-Policies/dp/0870819089), written with his wife, and I put it aside when it seemed like something that would be excerpted in Reader’s Digest or Parade, as it is full of cartoons. Unfortunately, that book also makes the case for reducing energy consumption as humanity runs out of energy. It least he is did not make Heinberg’s grim case (http://ahealedplanet.net/hooked.htm#austerity).

How hard it is to even imagine that maybe establishment science is not aware of all potential energy sources, especially when the prevailing hypotheses today has 95% of the universe undetected (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#darkmatter) and maybe undetectable? It is so blinkered to play those small ball games, especially when I know that they are completely unnecessary (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/125-The-Journey-from-Unawareness-to-Knowledge?p=1456&viewfull=1#post1456).

China was not raped for as long, and had two millennia of being politically unified.

British are partially responsible for India's troubles today. Sri Lanka and Jamaica were ahead of China in life expectancy (and child mortality), over the last 10 years China is slightly ahead. This has to do with basic education. The failure of India's leaders (post independence) to educate their population is the real reason behind the comparatively poor life expectancy of India.

Bonobos (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#bonobo1) created something highly novel in that they remained patrilocal but went from male to female dominance, and thereby became the peaceful chimps, and I strongly doubt that they could have done it without their food supply’s doubling.

It is not doubling food supply, it is a doubling in geographic density of food. This allowed for constant social foraging in bonobos, while chimps have to go solitary. These persistent social foraging allowed for solidarity to be used for defence, and to be selected for and stable over time.
This increase in food density has parallels to increasing number of brain cells in primates depending on how much fruits are a part of their diet.

An example that I frequently use is how slavery was unimaginable in the Second Epoch, became a hallowed institution in the Third (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#slaverybeginning), and became obsolete in the Fourth (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#southseas).

I have seen bonded labour (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Debt_bondage) and Child labour becoming rarer in India, an effect of economic change. Anybody from India 100 years ago would be stunned at the social change in India, it is mostly driven by energy change, with cognitive change and its sidekick of demographic change being a distant second.

If they are in the same geographical range, saying it is a doubling of supply or doubling of food density is saying the same thing. :) Yes, it allowed for larger and stable foraging parties, and females and non-dominant males changed the game. Another aspect of that is that there were no lone foragers to be ambushed and murdered in raids any longer. That may have played a role. Yes, energy density is a key concept for all sorts of situations, from primate brains to civilizations. Do you have a citation on neuron density in primates and fruit eating? There is plenty of controversy on the increase in brain size (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#chimpbrain), but I have not seen anything on why their neuron density is so great. Is it something that Suzana’s work discovered? I did not see it in her work, and that is likely a controversial evolutionary question.

I’ll agree that once the global industrial system was established, unless a nation was targeted by the West for enslavement (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#connection), joining the first world, or at least getting on the trajectory to it relating to demography, was not too hard, and as we know, education is not energy-intensive. There is some low-hanging fruit in bringing those people into the industrialized world, and I’ll agree that education is key. As we have discussed before, a small fraction of the Pentagon budget (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1196397&viewfull=1#post1196397) could eradicate all severe poverty on Earth. I just looked it up: $175 billion per year to eliminate extreme poverty globally (https://www.visionofearth.org/economics/ending-poverty/how-much-would-it-cost-to-end-extreme-poverty-in-the-world/), about a decade ago, or around a third of the Pentagon budget (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Military_budget_of_the_United_States).

Yes, forced servitude stops making sense in Fourth Epoch societies. It is not economically viable, and is certainly no longer a hallowed institution.

For me it is easier to understand in density terms, if food supply doubles and population doubles then we are back to square zero. Which is why chimps murdering their neighbors never helps. It doubles food supply, which is eaten away by changes in population size within 2 generations at most.

Do you have a citation on neuron density in primates and fruit eating?

We discussed this last year Primate brain size is predicted by diet but not sociality (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1184089&viewfull=1#post1184089).

Thanks Krishna (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet/page386&):

You are describing Malthusian chimps. :) It is an academic distinction. The key was those chimps’ being able to eat gorilla forage. That is what allowed for the large and stable foraging groups, which led to the social and anatomical changes. I’ll agree that energy density is a good way to look at it.

On fruit and diet, I thought that you meant neuronal density, not brain size. The high density of primate neurons I believe is a mystery that I have not seen anybody yet try to explain. The entire issue of mammal encephalization (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#mammalsdevelop) is controversial and fascinating. The issue of how large brains became large, especially the human line, is far from settled. What is agreed is that it is an energy issue. That extra energy had to come from somewhere, whether it was from increased range due to bipedal locomotion (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#bipedskull), an increased toolset (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#stonetool1), cooking (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#cooking), fruit, etc.

An exploration of China's mortality decline under Mao: A provincial analysis, 1950–80 (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4331212/)

"From 1950 to 1980, life expectancy at birth in China grew from between 35 and 40 years to 65.5 years, one of the most rapid sustained increases in documented global history"

Enough said.

I just finished "Tombstone The Great Chinese Famine 1958-1962" by Yang Jisheng, the deaths from the famine were 36 million, in addition 40 million babies were not born. So China had 76 million less population than in the alternative scenario of no famine.
It is important to note the number of children not born. However they are not deaths, and estimates for all the other famines that I read about do not count/publish unborn babies.

China is a case study in good policies (health, basic education) and bad policies (Great Leap Forward, Cultural revolution, One child Policy). Modern China has much to teach in what should be done and what should not be done.

Hi:

In my big essay, I deal with the pristine instances of many events. Many events in the history of life on Earth are thought to have only happened once (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#keyevents1). In the human journey, quite a few events are considered unique. There was only one pristine Industrial Revolution (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal4). There were at least two instances of pristine plant domestication, in the Fertile Crescent (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#natufian) and Mesoamerica (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#mesoamerica). There was likely one Founder Group that left Africa (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#founderexit) and conquered Earth. I consider it likely that the control of fire (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#fire1) was achieved once and spread, but that happened so long ago that it may never be proven to anybody’s satisfaction. But it was a radical break in the history of life on Earth. There were likely four pristine civilizations (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#pristine1). The study of pristine instances can provide a wealth of information and insight on why they happened.

Studying how those pristine instances spread can also be interesting, but IMO, the pristine instances are by far the most educational ones. And there will be only one pristine instance of manifesting the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5). :) Nobody is going to need to be convinced of its desirability once they see it in action. But until they see it in action (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#brink), hardly anybody will even be able to imagine it, and that is normal (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#imagine). The masses will not awaken (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#awaken) before then. The biggest event in the human journey will be a vast break from all that came before it, as humanity becomes a Type 1 civilization (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#kardashev), and the technological means for it (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ideal) have been on Earth for longer than I have been. But humanity has huge deficits in integrity (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page6?p=708&viewfull=1#post708) and sentience (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#sentience1), and that has been the stumbling block, not technology. Humanity won’t become honest and enlightened overnight when the Fifth Epoch manifests, but the path to it (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#cognitive) will become much clearer and easier to walk. However, some of us have to get there in order to get us over the hump. It won’t take many (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir).

I am going to be crazily busy at my day job over the next couple of months, so will likely be fairly quiet on the posting front and will spend my “spare” time in study for the big essay update, as well, and do some work on that score. My first task in that regard will likely be a bit more on quantum theory and cosmology. I think that it is important to realize how far from finished our scientific paradigms are (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#orthodox) (and they may well never be finished). I am currently reading John Horgan’s (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Horgan_(journalist)) The End of Science, and while there is a lot to commend, I confess to a little amazement at how naïve Horgan is. If he received the demonstration that my pal got (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#underground), his head would have exploded.

Just finished reading The Gap: The Science of What Separates Us from Other Animals by Thomas Suddendorf (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/17290783-the-gap)

Both Thomas and Melvin Konner find evidence for the same capabilities in other animals, what makes us different is that the we them at a much more deeper level, and more of them.
Thomas also says that the Gap between us and our cousins is because we have killed off or absorbed them into humanity, which is why there are no species filling the Gap.

Finally the word "overimitate" struck me, we overimitate and this has deep evolutionary roots, which is one more reason breaking out of social conditioning is so hard.

Hi Krishna:

I used (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#intelligence) The Gap in my big essay, and yes, mimicry is a key simian behavior, and scientists have identified “mimicry” neurons. I am trying to recall if I read it in The Gap, but our ape cousins are also threatened with extinction by us, and if they go, then the gap is going to be 30 million years or so of evolution. The USA’s machinations in Africa (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#rwanda) are threatening bonobos with extinction.

Social animals can be quite limited by their sociality, which is all about survival. That can’t be the motivation for what I am doing, and I finally realized that the social approach won’t work (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/96-Human-sociality-and-free-energy). We have to tap the sentient part of our beings to make this work, not the social part, and come from a higher plane of integrity. We may finally discover what sentience (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#sentience1) really means.

In Horgan’s book, which I am currently reading (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1251588&viewfull=1#post1251588), he interviewed Uncle Noam (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#crv), and not for his politics. Noam made the case that our brains have evolved under certain parameters and are only capable of certain perceptions. So, our investigations of the universe are quite limited by our limited brains. It is part and parcel of his linguistics work. Horgan asked Noam if he enjoyed his linguistics or political work more, and Noam was surprised that Horgan had to ask it. Noam saw his political work as a mere duty of pointing out injustice when he saw it, particularly when it was inflicted by his great nation (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#ethics). It gave him no intellectual pleasure to do it. His linguistics and related scientific work was his “brain food.”

In characteristic fashion, Horgan first heard Noam speak when he gave a talk about how labor union leaders are more concerned with their power than the welfare of the union members, and his talk was given to union leaders! :) Typical Noam.

Hi:

To Krishna’s (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1251767&viewfull=1#post1251767) post, I have written on the subject a bit, and will a little more here. My years with Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=601&viewfull=1#post601) comprised my real-world anthropology class. Human behavior could never surprise me again, after my first stint with Dennis was over. When I hit the books (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page7?p=734&viewfull=1#post734), encountered Uncles Ed (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm), Noam (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#chomsky), Mike (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#parenti), and Howard (http://ahealedplanet.net/zinn.htm), learned about mirror neurons (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mirror_neuron), the human journey (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#path), the history that I was not taught in school (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#more), and all of those scholarly/scientific subjects, it only confirmed and, in some cases, expanded on what I learned during my adventures. Without the awakening experience that came with my adventures, I would likely not have much worth saying.

As Krishna wrote, people’s breaking out of their conditioning is not easy. The deck is stacked against it in a number of ways, but from what I have seen, the background hum of scarcity and fear (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#coming) is the greatest influence. If people don’t cater to their in-groups (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ingroup), they risk ostracism and a dire fate.

When I write about that awakening moment (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=309&viewfull=1#post309), it is all about awakening from one’s social conditioning. And the awakenings that I respected the most came from those over-grown Boy and Girl Scouts (http://ahealedplanet.net/paths.htm#scouts), who drank the Kool-Aid but needed to honestly believe it, and then they discovered that it was a lie. I used to believe in the Easter Bunny (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#believing), too. It begins in the heart (http://ahealedplanet.net/visions.htm#jesus), always. And long after my awakening, I read Roads’s mentor (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?32399-A-Future-Earth&p=672748&viewfull=1#post672748) say that the path to awakening (true sentience (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#sentience1)) is through the heart and choosing love. Whether it was psychonauts, channels (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#seth), scientists, scholars, or grand adventurers, the message was the same, from those that I most respected. These are all facets of the whole, and taking it all in and digesting it can lead to that comprehensive perspective (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#developing) that I write so much about. My effort won’t work if my merry band cannot achieve comprehensive perspectives. They have to leave their adoptive ideologies (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#dominant) behind if they are going to achieve the necessary understandings. People in those levels of denial (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level1) and fear (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level5) to the idea of free energy are trapped in those ideologies and have yet to achieve true sentience.

The adventures that I had, and those of my fellow travelers, are not easy to survive, and I have to thank my youth for it. Those older than me generally did not survive the experience intact, as they could lose their sanity, have their lives wrecked, and die an early death (1 (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#journey), 2 (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#attack)).

Part of the conundrum (http://ahealedplanet.net/conun.htm#summary), at least for what I am attempting, is to help those that may be useful to my effort achieve the required level of understanding without unduly risking their lives (http://ahealedplanet.net/lessons.htm#pursuing). Those who rush out to proselytize to their social circles (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialcircle) have not yet woken up, as they are still trapped in their socialization. Getting from unawareness to knowledge (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/125-The-Journey-from-Unawareness-to-Knowledge?p=1456&viewfull=1#post1456) in this realm is far from easy, for those with the right stuff (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=308&viewfull=1#post308).

Hi:

It is time to write about Michael Hyson a little. I introduced him in my forum (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/79-Introducing-Michael-Hyson?p=168&viewfull=1#post168) more than three years ago, and nobody has heard a peep from him there. My introduction resulted from a conversation that we had. I have not met many like Michael. When scientists and intellectuals encounter my work, their defenses almost always arise, as they look for a way to dismiss my work. They form the ranks of the Level 3s (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level3). Michael was one of the rare exceptions, and it must largely be because he has had adventures far beyond the limits of establishment science.

Michael had not had my particular adventures, and he knew Brian before he really woke up (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#remote), but Michael is the extremely rare scientist or academic whom I can talk to, and when I relate my outrageous and often surreal experiences, or those of my fellow travelers, Michael is all over it. Not only does he not throw up a defense of naïve denial and seeming rationalism (which is not really very rational, when you get down to it), he immediately digests it and develops further insights. I am not kidding; I can count that kind of reaction from scientists and academics on one hand. Brian was one, a retired professor in New England is another, and my list is nearly exhausted after them (Bill Ryan is another exception). Michael comfortably sits in their company, he spent all morning reading an early draft of my big essay and was suitably impressed, and he will always have a seat at my table. Michael turned 70 this year (http://www.planetpuna.com/hyson/), lost his home to the volcano on the big island (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2018_lower_Puna_eruption) this year, nearly washed away from the hurricane (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hurricane_Lane_(2018)#Hawai%CA%BBi), and he knows well the challenges of scientists who leave the Citadel (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#frontiers): they scramble for the rest of their lives. It has been quite a year for Michael, and I don’t know if he will ever contribute to my effort, but he is always welcome.

You have also not seen anybody else contribute to my forum since 2016, and I am sympathetic to people who think that my effort will never gather any steam, but I am not worried. I know that my approach will work, if enough people can be found who will do the work (or, in the case of people such as Michael, are already most of the way there). If Bucky Fuller (http://ahealedplanet.net/roots.htm#fuller) was alive today, he would understand what I am attempting. I have budgeted the rest of my life’s “spare” time to this effort, and am in the early stages of it, still trying to make my material as good as I can, to help attract the people I seek (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir). If not me, then another, but time is short if humanity is going to avoid the cataclysm (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#spaceshipearth). I have to do what I can.

Best,

Wade

Hi:

Briefly, on that journey from unawareness to knowledge (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/125-The-Journey-from-Unawareness-to-Knowledge?p=1456&viewfull=1#post1456), my journey’s so-called salient moments (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#why) really were critical junctures for me. When Mr. Mentor’s engine began making waves (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#glimpse), when that woman held up her hand and described Isaac Brown’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#brown) missing finger, when that voice suggested that I might like studying business (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#voice), when it suggested that I might like moving to Seattle (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#voice2), and when it claimed credit for leading me to Mr. Professor (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#voice3), passing by a dead man on the sidewalk (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=406928&viewfull=1#post406928) on the way to lunch, seeing the employees cheer the theft (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#salient1) of Dennis’s company, seeing the sharks versus the crocodiles versus the piranha (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#salient2) in the courtroom, seeing those cars and trucks drive up to start the raid (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#raid), when Mr. Engineer (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/81-Vignettes-from-my-journey-and-how-I-learned-what-I-did-and-came-to-my-approach?p=208&viewfull=1#post208) told me that he and Mr. Researcher were going to work for Ken Hodgell and friends (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#salient3), when Mr. Deputy made faces at me all day (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#faces) long while I was on the witness stand, and my evening with Gary (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit/page2?p=1421&viewfull=1#post1421): those were all pivotal moments of my life, when not only did my life’s direction often change, but the realities of those moments were truly momentous for my developing awareness. There is no substitute for being there.

I have had many other lesser moments, such as watching a UFO light up on request (http://ahealedplanet.net/ufo.htm#call), watching fruit mummify (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#tomato), watching dolphins go crazy (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#dolphins) after I talked about free energy, being told the truth about Cornflakes (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#stale), watching slanderous news clips about Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/COP.htm#news) and reading libelous ones (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page5?p=687&viewfull=1#post687), and then reading talking heads in the free energy field trying to top them (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#libel), watching a “skeptic (http://ahealedplanet.net/dennis.htm#friends)” become famous by lying his ass off (http://ahealedplanet.net/dennis.htm#article) (and seeing how he effortlessly duped the gullible (http://ahealedplanet.net/skeptic.htm) in the free energy field), getting the friendly buyout offer (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page3?p=623&viewfull=1#post623) and the encouraging phone calls in the night (http://ahealedplanet.net/camelot.htm#white).

My meeting with Gary was one of my early “note-trading” sessions, in which I had the privilege of learning vicariously from those who had similar journeys to mine. Before I left my home town, to never return, I heard about Sparky Sweet’s gizmo (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#sweet), and Brian confirmed it the next year (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#sweet), when we met. Some years later, a close friend described his underground technology show, and when I related it to Brian several years later (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#underground), Brian nearly yawned, and he was more interested in my CIA contract agent relative (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#cia) than that show. Dennis told me his incredible life’s story (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis?p=574&viewfull=1#post574) during our relationship, I heard Mark tell his tale (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=811647&highlight=comings#post811647), heard Brian tell about his brush with death (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#attack), heard about Adam Trombly’s surreal experiences (http://ahealedplanet.net/radio.htm#trombly) (directly from people whom he trusted and told his journey to), heard Steven Greer talk about his encounters with the GCs (http://ahealedplanet.net/hooked.htm#payoff), heard Tom Bearden (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#bearden) talk about his brushes with the GCs, and I finally read about Dennis’s “final offer (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#offer)” from the GCs, before the boom was lowered on us (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#jail). Those were all key moments for me, as I built the mosaic of my awareness.

My scholar’s journey (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page7?p=739&viewfull=1#post739) was pretty tame, compared to those experiences. Encountering the work of Uncles Ed (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm), Noam (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#chomsky), Mike (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#parenti), and Howard (http://ahealedplanet.net/zinn.htm) was extremely influential, but they largely only confirmed what I had already learned from my adventures. Trading notes with Doug Caddy (http://educationforum.ipbhost.com/topic/20494-bill-decker-and-john-tower/?page=2&tab=comments#comment-319908), finding out that the media habitually tells Big Lies (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#big), or that the Founding Fathers were a bunch of mass murdering thieves (http://ahealedplanet.net/intro.htm#paradigms), or that I attended a grammar school named after the Hitler of California (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#serra) (who was recently sainted (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#saint)), was no big surprise to me, not after having my wild ride. The USA’s continuing imperial adventures (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#connection), while the media never calls it that, is just standard operating procedure in imperial societies. Comparing Stich’s versus Gary’s versus Dennis’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit/page2?p=1440&viewfull=1#post1440) writings was not revelatory to me, but is intended to help those that I seek gain an understanding of how our legal system really works, especially when it is used as a weapon.

When I look at the terrain of my journey, those salient moments were like high points on a mountain trail, in which it would break out of the forest for a moment and provide a stunning vista, to only dip back into the forest. Without those relatively mundane moments in the forest, grinding my way up hills, sloshing through the mud, avoiding the bugs, those salient moments might well have overwhelmed me. I have watched people go off the deep end by merely hearing about some of my adventures. So, the grounding of my journey, of those relatively mundane moments, helped me handle the more spectacular events and integrate them into my awareness. It has been nearly 50 years since that first awakening moment (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#stale), and I am far from finished. The journey truly never ends (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#afterlife).

I can’t expect any of my pupils to have experiences remotely like what I had on the high road, but if they have awakened (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=309&viewfull=1#post309), have their hearts in the right place (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=308&viewfull=1#post308), and do the work (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=313&viewfull=1#post313), I think that they can at least get to where the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5) not only becomes imaginable, but they will understand that they can help it manifest (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir). The experience won’t be as knowledgeable as living in the Fifth Epoch, but it may be enough to help make it happen. I don’t kid myself that finding those people and training them will be easy, but I have devoted the rest of my life’s “spare” time to the pursuit, and maybe we will make a dent together.

Best,

Wade

Hi:

If Dennis made a post like my previous one (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/125-The-Journey-from-Unawareness-to-Knowledge?p=1465&viewfull=1#post1465), of his adventures and salient moments of awakening, it would make my post look like the adventures of Walter Mitty (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Secret_Life_of_Walter_Mitty). From his migrant worker upbringing, to being forced to leave home at age 13 (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis?p=576&viewfull=1#post576), to his days in Southeast Asia (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page9?p=778&viewfull=1#post778), to his days with the Eastern Oligarchy (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis?p=577&viewfull=1#post577), mobsters (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis?p=579&viewfull=1#post579), nearly dying from medical negligence (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis?p=584&viewfull=1#post584), which left him crippled, to his adventures in business (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis?p=578&viewfull=1#post578), to his efforts to carpet the USA (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis?p=591&viewfull=1#post591) with history’s best heating system (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis?p=586&viewfull=1#post586), to his free energy pursuit (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=613&viewfull=1#post613), and so on, his life’s story is simply unbelievable. People have a hard enough time believing that my life’s journey has been real. And I am leaving out a lot of Dennis’s and my public stories that would make them far more spectacular, and I don’t know if I will ever be able to tell the entire tales publicly.

Brian O’s life (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm) was similarly eventful, so much so that being asked/ordered to go to Mars (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianbio.htm#mars) was only an amusing footnote. From what I have heard of Adam Trombly’s life (http://ahealedplanet.net/radio.htm#trombly), it is the closest thing that I know of to Dennis’s life, on the preposterousness scale. Steven Greer’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/97-Steven-Greer-s-Latest-UFO-ET-Disclosure-Effort?p=938&viewfull=1#post938) life has not been dull, nor Mark’s (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=811647&highlight=comings#post811647), and so on.

You can’t live lives like ours without thinking that “something is up,” and that we were on some kind of special assignment, especially with voices in our heads (1 (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#voice3), 2 (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#voice)) and acts of divine intervention (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page5?p=687&viewfull=1#post687). We all had genius-level “intelligence,” generally had that overgrown Boy Scout orientation (http://ahealedplanet.net/paths.htm), began our journeys naively (http://ahealedplanet.net/conun.htm#naive) and then woke up the hard way (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#radical), as members of history’s most privileged demographic group, and I can almost say that it is an archetypal pattern. And all roads led to free energy.

All of us had our egos challenged (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#patriot), and megalomania (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#messiah) is an occupational hazard of chasing the biggest event in the human journey (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5).

All of us got far more than we bargained for, and a standard question from those on special assignment is: “Is it over yet?” :) All of us could have had much simpler lives had we turned our backs on it and just sought a lot of money and a comfortable retirement, but we couldn’t do it. Our consciences would not let us. What attracted me to Ralph (http://ahealedplanet.net/mcgehee.htm), Ed (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm), Noam (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#chomsky), Howard (http://ahealedplanet.net/zinn.htm) and the like were their evident consciences, which they demonstrated to me when we corresponded.

In the end, we learned lessons (http://ahealedplanet.net/lessons.htm) that we could have had in arguably no other way. We were blazing trails that had not been traveled before (or, at least, had lived to tell of them). Those coming behind us do not have to learn the hard way, but the inertia in the field is great (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#arrested), with newcomer bright ideas (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#approaches) that are all variations on the theme of scarcity and fear (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#coming), and which are suicidal more often than not.

After we take our last breaths (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#afterlife), the theme will be what did we learn, how much love did we express, and did we make a dent? The stakes today (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#spaceshipearth) are higher than they have ever been. Our awareness is all that we take with us.

In coming posts on this subject, I will sketch out paths to awareness and knowledge in these realms that do not involve risking one’s life (http://ahealedplanet.net/lessons.htm#pursuing). If everybody had to learn how we did, almost nobody would survive the curriculum. If an effort like mine can gather enough members of a choir (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir), the rest will be easy.

Best,

Hi:

I am being asked to comment on Kavanaugh’s ascension to the USA’s Supreme Court (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brett_Kavanaugh#Nomination_to_the_Supreme_Court_of_the_United_States). I have written about the USA’s Supreme Court for many years. The favorite saying of its first Chief Justice, John Jay, was that those who own the country should run it (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#jay). That plutocratic sentiment goes back to the founding of the USA, when its richest man became its first president (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#washington), and that idea is alive and well today. Soon before he died, Brian O told me that American electoral politics was a dead-end, and he would have known (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#udall). Sitting American presidents (http://ahealedplanet.net/journey.htm#presidents) are far down the food chain of power on Earth, and are puppets at best (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/108-The-Global-Controllers?p=1186&viewfull=1#post1186). JFK was the last president who thought that he could make a dent, he was rudely disabused of his delusion (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit?p=1398&viewfull=1#post1398), and all presidents since then have no illusions on how disposable they are, although it is possible that Trump hasn’t figured it out yet, as he did not come through the standard political route, in which candidates sold their souls long before ever being elected to national office.

I have written at length about the Rehnquist court and its Kangaroo Court rulings (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#kidnap), more than one of which had a direct impact on my journey (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit/page2?p=1425&viewfull=1#post1425). American courtrooms are not where justice is dispensed, although Hollywood often depicts that fiction. Mr. Big Time Attorney (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#bigtime) once told me that if you were a seeker of truth, a courtroom was not the place to find it. The American legal system is all about winning and losing, not justice, and the rich almost always win. One of my pithier lines is that in the USA, you can get just as much justice as you can afford. Michael Moore estimated that up to half of all prison inmates in the USA are innocent of the crimes that they are incarcerated for, and I am not surprised. And when you are a political target, like Stich, Gary, and Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit/page2?p=1440&viewfull=1#post1440) were, they can make it up as they go, in ways that can be hard to believe.

The USA’s political scene has been veering to the right since Reagan (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#reagan) was elected, which is not surprising in a declining empire (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#invading). Noam has been writing about that for many years. When times get hard, politics slants to the right, as everybody tries to protect their positions and their grip on the dwindling economic pie. As Bucky Fuller said, political wrangling is not the solution to our problems (http://ahealedplanet.net/roots.htm#politics), and my work aims far higher than that (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5). But white women across the USA seem to be slowly waking up to what second-class citizens they still are, with a p**sy-grabbing president who just placed a highly dubious judge onto the Supreme Court (but a woman politician provided the swing vote (https://www.theguardian.com/law/2018/oct/07/brett-kavanaugh-supreme-court-susan-collins-defends-vote)). Just this morning, I was told that the table has now been set to overturn Roe versus Wade (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roe_v._Wade), and I have been repeatedly asked to comment on the ramifications of Kavanaugh’s final career position.

First of all, the USA’s Supreme Court has never been at the forefront of the improvement of human rights in the USA. It has only ratified “progress” after the fact, and when it did make rulings that were contrary to what the ruling class wanted, its rulings were ignored, such as the ruling on the Cherokee lawsuit regarding their dispossession (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#tears). The genocidal Trail of Tears soon followed. The landmark Civil Rights rulings only happened at the tail-end of generations of activism, such as the case regarding Rosa Parks (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Browder_v._Gayle).

In the USA, abortion was outlawed as a way for the rising AMA to wipe out midwives (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#abortion), who comprised the competition. It took a century to undo it at the Supreme Court level, just as the Parks decision came nearly a century after the Fourteenth Amendment (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fourteenth_Amendment_to_the_United_States_Constitution) was passed. When Bush the Second was “elected” (the last election that I voted in (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#nader), and Uncle Ed learned his lesson in that election (https://therealnews.com/stories/eherman0403pt1), too) among his first acts were to restrict abortion.

Nobody should have been surprised at Trump’s nomination of Kavanaugh, and I would not be surprised in the slightest if all of the allegations against him are true, just as I have virtually no doubt that the allegations against Clarence Thomas (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clarence_Thomas#Anita_Hill_allegations) are also true. Women have been second-class citizens (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#masculine) for nearly the entirety of the human journey. Bonobos (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#bonobo1) and horticultural matrilocal societies (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#patrilineal1) bucked that trend, and the Industrial Revolution’s demographic transition (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#demographic) was directly related to the end of slavery and the outright subjugation of women. I am not sure about the Me Too Movement (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Me_Too_movement), which has degenerated into witch-hunting all too often. I have single men friends who are terrified of dating, when a woman can make up allegations from the thin air and away goes the man to jail and a ruined life, which happened to a close friend in recent years. Again, where is the justice? You won’t find it in an American courtroom or in the social or mainstream media (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#ethics).

I have written that Bush the Second was more of a jolt to progressive activism than Clinton and Obama (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#chaos) were, who were Trojan horses that lulled activists into complacency, thinking that “one of theirs” was in the White House, when that was the furthest thing from the truth. Noam has discussed at length how the Democratic Party has lost its way (https://www.democracynow.org/2018/7/27/noam_chomsky_on_mass_media_obsession) by attacking Trump on about the only positive thing about his administration: backing off of World War III rhetoric with Russia. Hillary Clinton sounded like Joe McCarthy in the presidential debates, so having a woman in the White House is no guarantee of peace and progressive policies. More than half of white American women voters voted for Trump (https://www.nytimes.com/2016/11/10/opinion/white-women-voted-trump-now-what.html). Realistically, those white women are not going to be the ones whose lives will be made more difficult if the USA’s Supreme Court moves to limit abortion. That burden is going to fall disproportionately on women of color. 94% of black women voters voted for Hillary (https://www.cnn.com/election/2016/results/exit-polls), and they are the Americans who will likely suffer the most from Trump’s nomination of Kavanaugh. If abortion is going to be limited, it will be exclusively in red states, where most blacks live, not blue ones. Women in my home state of Washington need not fear that abortion will be outlawed here. Heck, marijuana is still illegal at the federal level, and pot shops are all the rage here.

Let there be no doubt about the misogyny in the White House today (and Trump’s misogyny was evident long before he was elected). On the philanderer scale, Trump is up there with JFK and Bill Clinton, and recent allegations by porn stars should not surprise anybody (here is a list (http://time.com/5058646/donald-trump-accusers/) before Stormy Daniels came forward (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stormy_Daniels%E2%80%93Donald_Trump_scandal)).

Kavanaugh’s ascension to the USA’s Supreme Court is more of the same. Maybe the specter of outlawed abortions will wake American women up a little more, but there are truly far bigger issues at stake (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#spaceshipearth) today.

The USA’s political scene has been veering to the right since Reagan (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#reagan) was elected, which is not surprising in a declining empire (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#invading). Noam has been writing about that for many years. When times get hard, politics slants to the right, as everybody tries to protect their positions and their grip on the dwindling economic pie.

I think this is part of the explanation, at a more deeper level. Both "Left" and "Right" have been deeply hierarchical, this is true across the world. It is in our DNA to form chimp like alliances with the ruling clique of alpha-males and support them.

But white women across the USA seem to be slowly waking up to what second-class citizens they still are, with a p**sy-grabbing president who just placed a highly dubious judge onto the Supreme Court (but a woman politician provided the swing vote (https://www.theguardian.com/law/2018/oct/07/brett-kavanaugh-supreme-court-susan-collins-defends-vote)). Just this morning, I was told that the table has now been set to overturn Roe versus Wade

Women have been [URL="http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#masculine"]second-class citizens (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roe_v._Wade) for nearly the entirety of the human journey. Bonobos (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#bonobo1) and horticultural matrilocal societies (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#patrilineal1) bucked that trend, and the Industrial Revolution’s demographic transition (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#demographic) was directly related to the end of slavery and the outright subjugation of women.

More than half of white American women voters voted for Trump (https://www.nytimes.com/2016/11/10/opinion/white-women-voted-trump-now-what.html).

White women always voted republican since 1952 except for Lyndon B. Johnson in 1965 and Bill Clinton in 1996. Source http://politicsofcolor.com/white-women-vote-republican/

While Roe vs Wade could be overturned, drugs these days make a big difference. https://www.nytimes.com/2018/05/31/opinion/sunday/abortion-banned-latin-america.html

The landmark Civil Rights rulings only happened at the tail-end of generations of activism, such as the case regarding Rosa Parks (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Browder_v._Gayle).

The tide on Civil Rights cases started to change in 1932 with Powell v. Alabama. At this point it was clear that the world was going to decolonize, for e.g. India had the great divide year in 1921 (https://www.quora.com/Why-is-the-year-1921-known-as-a-year-of-the-Great-Divide-in-the-demographic-history-of-India)
and that had implications for what the court could rule. The changed tune (https://civilrights.org/judiciary/federal-court-system/important-supreme-court-cases-civil-rights/) of the court is partly a result of international pressure.

The second half of the story is that African Americans started getting basic education (https://nces.ed.gov/pubs93/93442.pdf) with school enrollment for kids (age 5-19 years) no longer having vast gaps (whites 80% vs blacks and others 75%) This change in education levels meant that African American voices could no longer be ignored.

It is no surprise that India's leaders, Civil Rights leaders, and African leaders i.e. independence leaders all over the world were educated in the modern system of schooling that we have now.

Thanks Krishna (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1252922&viewfull=1#post1252922):

Good stuff. I agree that there are evolutionary reasons for our hierarchies, but I believe that we have far more compelling economic reasons for them. Second Epoch societies fiercely enforced egalitarianism (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#sharing). There was not enough energy surplus to support “big men,” so there were not any. With the rising energy surpluses of agriculture, elites appeared (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#elitesappear) for the first time in the human journey, as they finally had something to appropriate. Third Epoch civilizations were steeply hierarchical. While we still have the problem of elite rule in the Fourth Epoch, the “floor” is far higher, as the average American is richer than Earth’s richest human of three centuries ago. In the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5), with everybody richer than Bill Gates, I expect economic hierarchies to become obsolete.

Yes, the majority of white women voters have long voted Republican, as they did in the last election, even with a female Democratic candidate. My mother’s side voted Republican, dominated by strong women. My grandmother ran the family business, and her sister told her husband how to vote. No, it was stronger than that. She had her husband apply for an absentee ballot each election, claiming that his annual hunting trip coincided with the election, and she completed his ballot and mailed it in. Soon after my father married my mother, he got a phone call from my mother’s aunt, who proceeded to instruct my father whom and what to vote for. It was a bizarre “welcome to the family” moment for my father, who was a redneck but who never voted Republican in his lifetime, to my knowledge. Again, electoral politics holds little interest for me. The ballot box is not where the real power is, but it can be interesting to see how the masses vote.

Yes, courts have never been trailblazers for justice, ever, in world history. The earliest laws (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#akkadian) only codified the mores of the time. For me, the rise in living standards of industrialization (and the demographic transition (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#demographic) is part of that) is what happens in Fourth Epoch societies, and is the ultimate cause for the social improvements that we have seen. The various pressures that may have been brought to bear on the courts were ancillary causes. Without the printing press, Luther’s bright idea would not have been feasible (without the Internet, mine (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir) would not even be imaginable :) ). Mass education (which emancipated slaves could get, as well as other disenfranchised groups (peasants, women, etc.)) was part of what the Fourth Epoch was all about. I regard the abortion issue as a transitional one, as the echoes of the fading Third Epoch are still heard, especially in quasi-agrarian states and nations. It goes hand-in-hand with the grip of organized religion. Women in Third Epoch societies were supposed to be the broodmares of agrarian economies. Those ideas have not quite died off yet, taking their place in the history books with slavery and other anachronistic institutions that may have been “appropriate” for their Epoch.

Hi:

At a really basic level, what is knowledge? There is an entire branch of philosophy (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epistemology) devoted to that question, and Horgan’s book (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page13?p=1462&viewfull=1#post1462), which I am in the middle of, is dominated by epistemological issues, from Kuhn’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#introduction) and Popper’s work on what science is (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#theories), to string theory that cannot be subjected to empirical tests, so that string theory is more on the order of fantasy and math, and not really science as we know it. If a theory cannot be subjected to empirical testing, it is not within the realm of what is called science. I mentioned Noam’s being interviewed in Horgan’s book (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page13?p=1462&viewfull=1#post1462), and Noam made the case, as others have, that our evolutionary journey has led to biological equipment (our brain and senses) that has set limits on what we can perceive and understand, which has impacted the very process of science and what we “know” through it. Noam said that you have to some sort of “freak” to understand today’s physics. Niels Bohr made many pithy quotes about quantum theory, and my favorite may be:

“If you aren't confused by quantum mechanics, you haven't really understood it.”

With that preamble, how do we really “know” anything? Well, my definition of “knowledge” is not all that philosophical. We know things through experience. Science, history, and scholarship are ideally formalized systems of acquiring knowledge, which should be based on experience. I know that the five senses are not all of ours, as I had it rather spectacularly demonstrated to me at age 16 (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#brown), and I know that materialism (http://ahealedplanet.net/conun.htm#subtle) is just another false faith (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#dominant), related more to religion than science. That mainstream science, particularly the “skeptics (http://ahealedplanet.net/dennis.htm#friends),” attacks and dismisses that kind of evidence reflects poorly on today’s science, so science has limits far greater than even Horgan writes about. And what my friend was shown (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#underground) turns the corpus of today’s science upside-down. My friend knows. I am close enough to him, and others in my circle (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/125-The-Journey-from-Unawareness-to-Knowledge?p=1465&viewfull=1#post1465) have had similar experiences, so much so that I say that I know that those technologies exist. Horgan could take exception to my “knowledge,” but it is as close as you can get without being there. I also have seen free energy devices in action, although I was not able to subject them to a scientist’s rigor. As Brian O said, almost all demos have been at the “proof of concept” stage, which is a long way from having something that could power your home (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#demonstrate). What my friend saw, could, as it was 35th generation or so from a proof of concept prototype, and was developed in the black projects.

Social animals (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialreason) comprise a very old phenomenon, back to at least dinosaurs (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#territoriality), and it probably goes back to before animals migrated to land (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#landanimal). But simian sociality (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#grooming) is obviously the most important, as far as the evolution of human sociality goes. Sociality is all about survival, and social learning is an important aspect of simian learning (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#rhesusmirror). But back to what Noam and others have stated: sociality has influenced our learning. Learning through the context of sociality is going to be very directed, and hence, limited. First and foremost, that “learning” is not going to threaten the social order. That is just evolution at work. The in-group’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ingroup) welfare is always of paramount importance in any society. That is why the ideal of the mainstream media, for instance, has never come close to being achieved, and in practice it is often the opposite of the founding conceit that it pursues the truth (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#ethics). The objectivity of history is another one of those ideals that does not work well in practice (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#objectivity).

So, if pursuing the truth is the goal, unfettered by in-group and related assumptions, exploring beyond the limitations of our evolutionary heritage, the task is a tall one, and might not even be possible. We are creatures of our journeys. A major theme of my work is that very little of what people “know” was derived through direct experience, but came from what they were taught. To a degree, such vicarious “learning” is understandable. We can’t all go to the Moon today, or study chimps in the wild, or hire space telescopes to satisfy our curiosity about a distant galaxy. So, what we “know” generally comes through the hands of others. And if the process of acquiring such “knowledge” is not trustworthy or is subject to various limitations, then the learning experience is going to fall far short of discovering the unvarnished truth, if there is such a thing.

That awakening experience that I write so much about, which is a requirement for those I seek (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=309&viewfull=1#post309), is about having that moment when people realize the nature of their social “learning” and how it did not teach them something that resembled the truth. That is an experience that all people have to have for themselves. There is no substitute for it. Very few people ever awaken. Very few want to. They are satisfied with their in-group status and are not about to do anything that jeopardizes it. Full bellies, a roof over their heads, and a temporary satiation of their addictions pretty much cover their motivation. In a world of scarcity and fear (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#coming), losing one’s in-group status can be life-threatening. So, people can have crazed reactions to anything that challenges their in-group conceits. That is why my “peers” – white, educated, American men – can blow a gasket after reading this chapter (http://ahealedplanet.net/intro.htm#progress) of my site. There is not anything to rationally dispute about it, but in-group conceits are not built on rationality, or only in the most superficial way, which can easily be invalidated.

But the truth and knowledge born of unbiased experience; those are not easily attained in our world. You have to quest after it. As Noam said, if you want to learn, you have to do the work. If somebody says that they are going to open up your head and pour in knowledge, they plan to deliver the opposite: mind-controlling dogma.

Best,

Wade

Hi:

So, on the knowledge front, in our social learning system, we begin with “learning” what we are taught. I don’t need to belabor the kind of “education” that I received while young, even though I was in gifted programs for much of my schooling. I attended a grammar school named for a genocidist (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#serra), who was recently sainted (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#saint), and was never taught that the “Father of Our Country” (whom my home state was named after) was a mass-murdering thief (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#washington), while I drank industrial waste each day (http://ahealedplanet.net/fluoride.htm#compulsory). I read the newspaper paper daily, from about age 10 to 30, thinking that I was getting the “news (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#big).”

My first “learning” experience that was not what the mainstream taught me was when our family went “health nut” when I was 12, and my father “impossibly” reversed the hardening of his arteries (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#lessons). The booklet that saved my father’s life was subsequently banned in the USA (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#banned). As I look back, that was really the beginning of my true education, which was born of experience, not what I was “taught.”

Mr. Mentor’s engine (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#glimpse) began making waves when I was 16, and I had my first glimmers of the dream that I have pursued to this day. I had my mystical (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#brown) and cultural (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#europe) awakenings the same year, which were again based on experience, not something that I was taught, although my mystical awakening happened at the end of 40 hours of training to have it. Training, to then use it in the real world, is the best kind of all.

After that voice suggested that I study business (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#voice), I then spent the next few years getting capitalist indoctrination, but began questioning it upon graduation (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#believing). Several years later, the same month (http://ahealedplanet.net/savings.htm#silverado) that I was radicalized on the witness stand (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#faces), I finally realized how worthless my erstwhile profession was (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#getting).

But if you had asked me about free energy when that voice suggested that I move to Seattle (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#voice2), I would not have had any idea what you were talking about. When I met Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=601&viewfull=1#post601), neither of us had ever heard of free energy, and when I chased Dennis out to Boston (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#chasing), pursuing free energy was the furthest thing from my mind. But the day after I got to Boston (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=613&viewfull=1#post613), I began my journey from unawareness to knowledge. My journey was larger than life (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/125-The-Journey-from-Unawareness-to-Knowledge?p=1465&viewfull=1#post1465), so much so that even as I wrote the above, I marvel that it really happened, so I am sympathetic to people who are “skeptical” of my journey. All that I can say is that it happened, and if I was at liberty to tell the whole story, it would be far more spectacular than I have publicly written about so far. The skeptical ideal is getting out of one’s easy chair and finding out, not what passes for organized skepticism (http://ahealedplanet.net/dennis.htm#friends) today.

But all people have to walk their own journeys, and for those few who seek the truth, outside of their in-group conceits (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ingroup), they have to really work for it, and their social circles are not going to encourage them. That is why proselytizing the free energy message (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialcircle) to one’s social circles is almost always disastrous. If people doing that are lucky, they will not lose their relationships and even careers before they begin to wake up to the reality.

I began my awakening process when I was 12, when nobody around me wanted to hear about eating healthily, and I was teased about my diet for many years. As I look back, it was a very gentle awakening, not only about the knowledge that came from practices outside of the mainstream, but the knowledge of how the masses would react to such information.

So, what we are taught in school (http://ahealedplanet.net/intro.htm#paradigms) has little to do with knowledge, if anything. Experiential learning is far superior to anything that comes out of a book. That is where true knowledge comes from, especially of the variety that can make a dent (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir) in where humanity is heading (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#spaceshipearth). The ship can be righted, but only by people who know. People operating within their in-group indoctrination have not yet awoken, and is why the social approach (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/96-Human-sociality-and-free-energy?p=925&viewfull=1#post925) will not work for Epochal change (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5). When the Fifth Epoch is here, the masses (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#brink) will begin to awaken (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#awaken) to it, and not before. Literacy (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#writing) is a good thing, but what it is used for is all-important.

For the people I seek, they have likely not yet been awakened (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level0) to the idea of free energy, not in a way that comes close to knowledge, but they will have been awakened in some way (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=309&viewfull=1#post309). I can work with that.

Hi:

On that quest for knowledge (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/125-The-Journey-from-Unawareness-to-Knowledge?p=1470&viewfull=1#post1470), I briefly want to cover one of the most difficult and sanity-threatening aspects of the awakening process (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=309&viewfull=1#post309). In the initial stages of it, it is easy to think that you are the insane one. You have experiences outside of the box of your socialization, and if you mention them to your social circle, you will rarely get validation. Instead, you will receive “skepticism,” outright denial, and because your experiences represent a challenge to the in-group conceits, you can become a threat to be dealt with, and ostracism is common. Your own mother can campaign against you, and I am writing from experience (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=400492&viewfull=1#post400492). You are jeopardizing the in-group beliefs (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ingroup) with your outside-the-box experiences, and the cognitive dissonance (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#cognitive) that you are going through is not fun, but you actually have experience that caused it. Your social circle does not. So, on one hand, you have a benefit that they don’t have. On the other, those in your social circle truly don’t want to hear anything that might call their in-group status into question. Everybody believes that they act with integrity, even dark-pathers (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#selfservers), no matter how much their eyes may tell them differently.

As I have stated plenty, you can awaken in many walks of life, and I don’t recommend awakening on the high road to free energy. Only the mightiest souls (http://ahealedplanet.net/lessons.htm#howmany) can walk that path for long, and many perils (http://ahealedplanet.net/conun.htm#pitfalls) await the aspirant. I recall reading one of the innumerable interviews that Noam (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#chomsky) has given, and he once said that when people begin to awaken past the barrage of propaganda that issues from the TV, they can have thoughts that they really are Big Lies that they are being fed. If they dare to have an independent thought on the matter, each wonders if he/she is the only person on Earth with those thoughts. And if you have them, you generally keep them to yourself, because your ideas seem so crazy. In that way, the system self-regulates.

One reason why conspiracism (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#conspiracism) is such a fertile field is that it operates from the victim principle, making us all victims (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#weakness) of the bad guys. That is an easy sell: some bad out-group is at the root of our problems. No need for the personal introspection that calls out our role in the events and has us take responsibility (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#responsibility) for what is happening. On one hand, staying asleep is easy. You just go with the flow. On the other hand, as Yogananda’s guru once told him, such people slumber in the fitful sleep of ignorance. I have watched people embrace certain death (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#doom) rather than question their conditioning. So, being asleep can be very costly. As Roads’s mentor said (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?32399-A-Future-Earth&p=672748&viewfull=1#post672748), their reality will reflect their conditioning, as they failed to choose love.

Coming to the understanding that the masses have chosen to sleep is not initially fun, but it can also be liberating. People will never awaken with talk (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#brink), and when people truly awaken, they will realize it, and won’t proselytize the “good news” to their social circles (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialcircle). Once people truly awaken, they will stop trying to chat up those around them with the good news, especially with something as Epochal as free energy. People can only awaken through experience, and awakening to the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5) will be a pleasant awakening. Awakenings don’t have to be harsh, although in today’s world of scarcity and fear (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#coming) they generally are. Only the caring and courageous (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=308&viewfull=1#post308) will awaken in these times.

Best,

Hi:

Since this past summer, I have read several books on Operation Paperclip and those Nazis that the USA hired. I have read too much about Nazis in my lifetime. The toll of study and writing of my book-length essay on World War II (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm) damaged my marriage, and I quit drinking the next year, spurred by the experience, for a silver lining to it. The Nazi connections to my life are not inconsequential. The Space Race came from the captured German scientists, the JFK assassination (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit?p=1398&viewfull=1#post1398) not only ended JFK’s plan for a joint American-Soviet mission to the Moon (as a way to help end the Cold War), but it is also why I lived in Houston (http://ahealedplanet.net/paths.htm#oleary), and von Braun’s influence is why Brian became an astronaut (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianbio.htm#mars). I have written a bit about the Nazis and NASA (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#nazi).

There were three particularly infamous aspects of the USA’s hiring Nazis.

The CIA’s hiring of Gehlen (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#gehlen) and the staffing of the CIA with Nazis;
The hiring of Nazi doctors and scientists who were involved with human experiments;
The hiring of the V-2 and related scientists and technical professionals to staff NASA.

The first one is by far the most egregious. Gehlen’s intelligence files were developed by the systematic murder of several million Soviet POWs, and the people in his organization were often directly involved in the Final Solution (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#toward). Some were even openly unrepentant and extolled Nazi ideology to their American handlers. They knew that their services were valuable to the USA’s Cold War efforts (which were pure aggression against the Soviet Union (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#landreform)), so much so that even extolling Nazi ideology would not get them in trouble with the CIA. Hiring those Nazis nearly led to World War III.

It is not easy to rank evil, but murdering several million POWs I regard as worse than killing people, mostly Jewish, in the human experiments in the death camps. Bringing up the rear is the V-2 program, which “only” worked about 20,000 concentration inmates to death, while developing missiles that were primarily used for bombing civilians.

What came across very clearly in my studies is that the Germans knew from the beginning what monstrous crimes they were committing, starting with Hitler’s practice of never committing such directives in writing (which has given Holocaust Deniers (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#holocaust) lots of ammo over the years). The Germans either did not document their crimes, or used euphemisms, such as “Special Handling” (extermination), “Large Pig” (human experimental subjects), and the like. Even then, when the tide began to turn with the Nazi disaster at Stalingrad, those involved in the monstrous crimes began going into cover-up mode and hid or destroyed documents that implicated them. They had years to prepare for their postwar lives.

When the war was over and the Nazis began to get called to account, their first line of defense was that they knew nothing of the Final Solution and other crimes, and when that defense failed, their last defense was “I was only following orders.” Repentant Nazis were hard to find.

Operation Paperclip’s leader of the death camp doctors was Hubertus Strughold (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#strughold). He destroyed all of his records before the war ended, as did his colleagues, so they all feigned clean hands. But even then, Strughold had to sanitize the reports of his colleagues, to remove the references to human experiments, when he edited what became the American Air Force’s tome on German medical achievements during World War II. Strughold became an American space hero, with an Air Force library named after him in Texas, as he was lionized as the father of space medicine. Strughold got caught in his lies early and often, but because of his worth to the Americans, it was all swept under the carpet as they actively protected him. Even though he was on the wanted list of German war criminals, he was never prosecuted at Nuremburg and even helped save his medical experiment colleagues. Strughold then began concocting fantasies about his real role in the Third Reich, telling tales of having a price on his head because of his anti-Hitler activities, when the record clearly showed his steady promotion in the German Air Force, when he was supposedly in hiding from the Nazis. It was pretty sickening reading.

Only slightly less sickening was reading about von Braun and friends. You might imagine the thoughts running through my head as I read about those NASA Nazis, who led the technical effort for the rockets that my father tracked at NASA. Dr. von Braun was another unrepentant Nazi, who acted like a rock star from the moment he turned himself over to the Americans. He was able to hide his SS background from the American public, with the help of his American handlers, and while reading those books in recent months, he came across as kind of a monster. In published interviews, he openly boasted of the huge workforce of prisoners that he had working on his missiles, and even had souvenir photos of prisoners working on the missiles that made their way into books on the subject.

And the sidekick of both von Braun and Strughold was Heinz Haber (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#haber). He was also on the war crimes list, but because of all of the covering up, in both Germany and the USA, we will likely never know just what he did in World War II. In Annie Jacobsen’s Operation Paperclip, she wrote about being contacted by Haber’s nephew, and she even attended a book club meeting at that nephew’s home, where they discussed her book. Haber’s nephew wanted to know just what his father did (who was on the war criminal list with his brother), but he’ll never really know.

Among the books I read were:

The Nazis Next Door by Lichtblau;
Secret Agenda by Hunt;
Operation Paperclip by Jacobsen;

I read Christopher Simpson’s books on the topic back in the 1990s, in preparation for writing my war essay, and I read other books on the topic, such as Bower’s Paperclip Conspiracy, Goliszek’s In the Name of Science, and Moreno’s Undue Risk. I am also in the middle of reading Hitler’s American Model, by Whitman, on how American race laws and genocides influenced Nazi laws and the Final Solution. I am glad that I no longer drink. :)

I am going to try to stop reading about the Nazis now and focus on my big essay update. I may well write an essay about all of those Nazis that the Americans embraced because they were useful. It is a grim topic that will surely take a toll if I write an essay on it. Wikipedia is a travesty on these subjects, as usual, as the whitewash of the Nazis got a whitewash. Wikipedia’s Operation Paperclip (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Paperclip) article is actually celebratory of the achievements of those Germans, without any mention of its obstructions of the prosecutions of the many war criminals that it brought over, as Uncle Ed, a Jew, has a libelous bio at Wikipedia (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/105-My-Edward-Herman-biography-project/page3?p=1368&viewfull=1#post1368). It is almost like the Nazis won, after all.

Best,

Hi:

I have a little writing time today. I am kind of in the eye of a hurricane, as my day job promises to be crazily busy for the next month. I have a few items on my writing intentions.

I doubt that I have written about it before, but when Ed asked me to revise his execrable Wikipedia bio, it was all the encouragement that I needed, and I never heard back from Ed again, other than his announcement of his last essay for Monthly Review (https://monthlyreview.org/2017/07/01/fake-news-on-russia-and-other-official-enemies/), in which he looped me into part of his inner circle. My plan was always to write the longer bio (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm), first, and then chop it down to Wikipedia length. But what I kind of hoped for was that Ed would see that I was serious, and that we could embark on a little project together to do his bio some justice. Alas, that was not to be, as he did not live to see any of my effort. Those last months, as he was dying, I stopped hearing from him, as did his inner circle. My hope was that after Ed saw my initial effort, we could have worked more on his biography, rather than just his public writings. I think that Ed would have been happy with my effort, as he was never very self-disclosing in his writings. I suspected but did not know he was Jewish until after he died. He never disclosed it in his writings that I know of, other than this plea from 20 years ago (https://www.counterpunch.org/1998/06/15/an-appeal-from-american-jews-to-the-green-party-of-germany/), which I did not see until this year.

I have too many irons in the fire to have wanted to write a professional biography for Ed, but what I had hoped was that if Ed let me into his inner circle, and I would have happily taken a trip to his home, that I could have begun the process of amassing the information that would become the raw material for when a professional biographer finally took on the task. Being the student of history that I am, I have a pretty good sense of how history is going to treat Noam, Ed, and the relatively few like them. Noam has been the world’s foremost intellectual for the past 50 years, even though in the USA, he has been banished to the media’s far corners. Noam will go down in history as one of humanity’s greatest thinkers. Ed happily played a support role for Noam, as I am doing for Ed’s memory, but Ed was a better writer than Noam is, and he will take his place among history’s greatest dissident thinkers, as he criticized history’s richest and most powerful nation from the inside, and took on its imperial behaviors in particular, which have no equal. It has been intervening globally for nearly 80 years now. Ed may well rank with Tacitus (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tacitus), as far as imperial critiques go. The fact that Ed, like Noam, has been banished to marginality today, inside the Empire, is typical treatment. But world history (if there is one (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#spaceshipearth)) will treat Ed kindly, even if American history does not. There have not been many like him.

On my own efforts, I have been piling up books for the essay update, with several new acquisitions on subjects that I want to write more on, such as brain plasticity, cosmology, and other pertinent topics. I plan to focus solely on the essay update until I finish it, which might well not be completed until 2020. If I look back at my work, the work up to the 2002 version of my site was largely about helping people break out of their social conditioning (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/96-Human-sociality-and-free-energy), or how those who were awakened (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=309&viewfull=1#post309) would recognize that quality in my work. But since early 2003, when I read Bucky’s work (http://ahealedplanet.net/roots.htm#fuller) for the first time, my work has been consciously comprehensive and designed to help people achieve the comprehensive understandings (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#developing) that will assist in my project to help manifest the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5).

Hi:

I was planning on hiking here (https://www.wta.org/go-hiking/hikes/blue-lake) today, but everybody backed out. I have been hiking to that lake to see the larches (http://ahealedplanet.net/pics.htm#larch) for nearly 20 years now. I still might get my niece to them, next weekend, weather permitting. This morning, I read a story (https://www.gq.com/story/missing-parents-melting-glacier-swiss-alps) of how Global Warming (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/90-Global-Warming-Peak-Oil-and-related-topics?p=460&viewfull=1#post460) is melting off the glaciers, and there was kind of a happy ending in Switzerland with the melting.

I recently read that virtually all of the world’s coral reefs will be dead by 2050 (https://news.nationalgeographic.com/2017/06/coral-reef-bleaching-global-warming-unesco-sites/), given current trends. Already, a third of them have died since 1980, and the rest will be gone in another 30 years. In Earth’s history, this is unprecedented. When the Devonian reefs died out (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#kellwasser), the process took millions of years, but humanity is going to do it in a century.

Americans have been infamous for their “skepticism” that Global Warming is real (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/90-Global-Warming-Peak-Oil-and-related-topics?p=463&viewfull=1#post463) (or evolution (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Creation%E2%80%93evolution_controversy)), or they have attributed it to some kind of scientific conspiracy (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/90-Global-Warming-Peak-Oil-and-related-topics?p=458&viewfull=1#post458). But even they are beginning to pull their heads out of the sand (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Climate_change_denial#United_States).

What is particularly surreal to me is that I know that the solution to these issues already exists on the planet (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/125-The-Journey-from-Unawareness-to-Knowledge?p=1465&viewfull=1#post1465), but virtually the entire planet is in ignorance (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level0) or denial (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level1). I’ll finish Horgan’s book (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1251588&viewfull=1#post1251588) soon and report on it. On one hand, I was almost envious about what access Horgan had to the world’s leading scientists, by virtue of being a writer for Scientific American, but his views were very whitebread, as can be expected for writing for such a mainstream publication. To his credit, Horgan wrote that something like free energy or the “discovery” of ETs would have Epochal significance, but he did not even seem to suspect that both are already here. They are both subjected to the same cover-up (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ufo2). I see it as the hazards of living in the mainstream, wearing the heavy blinkers of his indoctrination and conditioning. As Brian asked (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#sentience1), are we a sentient species?

Wade

Been reading The Tangled Tree: A Radical New History of Life by David Quammen Too much of the book is a story of scientists life and discovery and rivalry, it gives some insight into how science progresses. The science itself is interesting, in summary all species are mosaics, and it is not a straight parent-child species continuation. For me it was interesting to note the influence of Malthus on Darwin, it was Malthus essay on population that had an influence on Darwin's thinking about the individuals that survive the competition.

Hi Krishna (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1254166&viewfull=1#post1254166):

Yes, kind of like my review of it (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/14-Chapter-7-Early-Life-on-Earth?p=1458&viewfull=1#post1458). Horgan’s book (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1251588&viewfull=1#post1251588) is pretty heavy on the infighting of scientists. The Tangled Tree was not exactly what I was expecting, but not too bad on the history of thought on the issue. Yes, Darwin was influenced by Malthus (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#economists) and Lyell (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#lyell), and Darwin’s theory is still the one to be reckoned with. Since genetics did not exist when he published On the Origin of Species; not bad at all. Genetic transfers make for an interesting wrinkle, but it still does not impact Darwin’s theory much, IMO. Even the symbiosis that led to complex life (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#mitochondria) is just a more spectacular version of it. It is kind of a Lamarckian twist on it, but it is just another way to get genetic variation that is still passed down to the offspring, although much more dramatically than mutations. The tree is indeed tangled, but more so in the earlier innings of life on Earth. Darwin got it wrong on mass extinctions (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#extinctioncauses1) and their influence, which set back the science a bit.

I’ll probably finish Horgan’s book in the coming week, but reading it has inspired a coming post on my intentions. It was depressingly familiar how Horgan dismissed psychic phenomena and Star Trek (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#visions) “fantasies” such as faster-than-light travel, and his stating that “educated” people and scientists did not buy such nonsense. Naïve materialism (http://ahealedplanet.net/conun.htm#subtle) is the order of the day in our late Fourth Epoch. The largely self-imposed ignorance and blindness of mainstream science can really be something to witness, and had a lot to do with Brian’s “Are we a sentient species? (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#sentience1)” question. Somewhat ironically, Horgan’s book was first published when Brian first free energy book (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#miracle) was. Ed Mitchell (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page3?p=416&viewfull=1#post416) had not quite “come out” when Horgan’s book was published, but people like Ed would not have been on Horgan’s interview list for that book, and while I just ordered Horgan’s Rational Mysticism, I doubt that I will read much from Ed and Brian in it, if anything. They worked beyond the pale.

Best,

Wade

Hi:

My “recreational” reading since I last updated my big essay (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm) in May 2015 has been devoted to the next update. I’ll likely update that essay as long as I am capable of it, but this next update will be significant, maybe the most significant that I will ever do, and I’ll likely call it Version 2.0. A lot of water has gone under the study bridge since then, and it would not surprise me if that update didn’t happen until May 2020, for a five-year gap between updates, but I hope that it happens faster than that. I hope that a year from now, I will have published it, and I’ll be publishing revised sections as I go along, like I did for Version 1.0.

It took a year of my “spare” time to do Ed’s bio (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm), but I always have the big essay’s topics rolling around in my head, and I decided this year to revive the idea of publishing a book, and if I do, it will be an abridged version of my big essay. If I do, I’ll likely refer to the book and my big essay as Energy and the Human Journey from then on. “Big essay” is easier to write, however. :) Maybe I’ll just write EHJ instead. I recently reread my introductory chapter (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#summary) of the big essay, and I doubt that I can do much better than that. But when I rewrite the big essay, I can see bullet points, maybe in that chapter, and it may look something like this:

My intention for the essay is to get across these ideas:

The role that energy plays in our universe, including:
How star systems form (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#formation), live, and die, including ours;
How Earth evolved (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#hadean), from its fiery beginnings to becoming a “water planet”;
How life appeared (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#luca) and learned to harness energy (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#aspects), at ever-increasing levels (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#energyevents);
How complex life appeared (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#mitochondria) and evolved, including complex ecosystems (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ecosystem);

How humanity arrived on the evolutionary scene, including:
How and why primates appeared (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#primate1);
Why some left the trees and became apes (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#proconsul);
Why some apes left the forests (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#chimpsplit) and learned to walk erect (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#bipedskull);
How they began making tools (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#stonetool1) in a way never done before on Earth;
How they learned to control fire (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#fire1), which in short evolutionary order led to the appearance of Homo sapiens (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#sapiens) and their conquest of Earth (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#founderexit);

How humanity learned to harness new energy resources to propel its growth and prosperity, including:
Earth’s large animals (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#bison);
Plants (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#kebaran) and animals (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#goat) conducive to domestication;
Earth’s forests (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#treesenergy);
Fossil fuels (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#coaluse);
Non-chemical energy, of which nuclear (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#nukes1), hydroelectric (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#watermill), and direct solar (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#lamco2) energy are the best known;
What are called exotic energy sources, such as zero-point energy (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#zpf1);

How humanity has pushed Earth’s ecosystems to the brink with its energy practices, in a number of ways, including:
Wiping out ecosystems (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#sixth1) for human benefit;
Burning fossil fuels to the extent that it has measurably affected Earth’s atmosphere (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#globalwarming), and in ways that portend dramatic changes in Earth’s climate;
Various chemical pollution (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#spaceshipearth) dynamics;

How humanity can turn the corner and become an environmentally harmless and economically abundant global civilization (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5), in which poverty (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#cognitive), most disease (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#paradigm1), and warfare (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#peacekeeping) become distant memories, while acknowledging:
The current sequestering (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/108-The-Global-Controllers?p=1173&viewfull=1#post1173) by global elites (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc) of the technologies that make that transition feasible, as well as the organized suppression (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#levels1) of independent efforts to develop such technologies;
Humanity’s inertia, which has not has not only not helped, but has often served to thwart such independent efforts;
The approach I am taking (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir), arrived at from a lifetime of making attempts (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#journeys), commiserating with fellow travelers, and observing numerous independent efforts (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#approaches).

Something like that nutshell will likely make it into Version 2.0. Those are the minimum understandings that those I seek (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir) will have to attain, and you might note that a mystical perspective is not among them, which is another reason why my jury is still out (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=312&viewfull=1#post312) on whether it is needed. That said, the people I seek do need to understand that materialism is a religion that my experiences first falsified when I was 16 (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#brown), and my fellow travelers that I most respected also left materialism behind, which is the Fourth Epoch’s religion, when they also had experiences that falsified it (http://ahealedplanet.net/journey.htm#mystical). As long as those I seek understand that even the statement “laws of physics” is a religious conceit – there are only theories – and that there are plenty of holes in orthodox theories that allow for the possibility of free energy technologies, then that may be sufficient for what I am doing. Those in the deepest denial of free energy are often scientists and scholars (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level3), who think that they “know” so much, but their certitude only reflects the blinkered arrogance of intellectuals throughout history, thinking that they have it all figured out.

Wade

Hi:

I finished Horgan’s (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1251588&viewfull=1#post1251588) The End of Science. Its basic thesis is that the great discoveries in science have already been made: evolution, relativity, quantum theory; and that all that was left was filling in the details of that canvass in an era of diminishing returns in scientific investigation. It first came out in 1996, and the version I read had a preface from 2015, in which Horgan noted how well his thesis had fared in the subsequent generation. He noted that even if the age of great scientific discoveries is over, that using them to make the world a better place is still alive and very much well, so he gets some points for that. He should read this chapter (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5) of my big essay. :)

While Horgan observed that abundant and environmentally harmless energy production would be a great boon to humanity, it was made in passing, but he noted that the best candidate, fusion, was a bust. He also noted that there is still no sign of ET life, which would be a big deal, almost the biggest deal in the history of science, but he did not think that such a finding was likely. He ended his book with a chapter that began with his life’s only mystical experience, which he interpreted to mean that God was terrified of the end of his/her existence. Of all of my many paranormal experiences (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#research) and those of my fellow travelers, and through my pretty vast reading of mystical literature, I regard that as near the bottom, if not at the bottom, of mystical “realizations”: that the Creator fears his/her end, and that fear permeates into human thought and affairs. I recognize the sentiment, but what an incredibly negative view, which I regard as similar to Susan Blackmore’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#blackmore) “mystical” musings that we really don’t exist, other than being some kind of ephemera of brain activity. Pretty shoddy stuff, IMO, by scientific dabblers in the mystical realm.

Leaving his “mystical” angle alone, here are just a few of the flies in Horgan’s ointment:

Microscopes have existed for nearly a century (1 (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#rife), 2 (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#naessens)) that defy orthodox optical theory. The findings of those microscopes challenge some foundational theories of biology.
Experiments with Brown’s Gas (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/89-Free-energy-psychic-abilities-and-the-skeptics-and-debunkers?p=422&viewfull=1#post422) challenge key aspects of quantum theory.
Steven Greer’s Disclosure Project (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/97-Steven-Greer-s-Latest-UFO-ET-Disclosure-Effort) has brought hundreds of UFO/ET witnesses together, some of whom have testified under oath, of not only the reality of ET visitors, but that it is being covered up by the global power structure for reasons of earthly power. Astronauts have been involved (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page3?p=416&viewfull=1#post416) in that project, and a close astronaut colleague nearly lost his life (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#attack), courtesy of the American military, when he snooped into the UFO issue. E. Howard Hunt told the original Watergate attorney that JFK was murdered over the ET issue (http://educationforum.ipbhost.com/topic/20494-bill-decker-and-john-tower/?do=findComment&comment=321167), as he planned to disclose it to the Soviet Union. I’ll leave aside my own encounters (http://ahealedplanet.net/ufo.htm) for now.
A close colleague had free energy and antigravity (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/97-Steven-Greer-s-Latest-UFO-ET-Disclosure-Effort?p=1355&viewfull=1#post1355) technologies demonstrated to him (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/108-The-Global-Controllers?p=1173&viewfull=1#post1173) by a disenchanted faction of the global elite; those technologies turn orthodox physics upside-down, and when my astronaut colleague heard it, he was not even surprised (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#underground).
My partner was offered a billion dollars (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#offer) by the CIA to cease our free energy efforts, before we had the boom lowered on us (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#jail). I later learned that our treatment was not that unusual (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#deadinventors). In the years since we got clobbered, I discovered that that offer was only one of many incidents that evidenced keen interest by the global elite (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc) in my partner’s efforts. David’s Rockefeller’s calling him at home (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page13?p=888&viewfull=1#post888) was no more than a minor curiosity, compared to the rest of it. Other fellow travelers had similar experiences (1 (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#sweet), 2 (http://ahealedplanet.net/radio.htm#trombly), 3 (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=811647&highlight=comings#post811647)).

Those kinds of revelations, and the complete lack of any engagement of them, render Horgan’s “end of science” arguments pedestrian at most and blinkered to the point of blindness at worst, and arguably even fraudulent. Horgan unabashedly embraces the mainstream, which I suppose comes with the territory of being a writer for Scientific American. I’ll never deny that orthodox scientists (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#orthodox) have done a great deal of good work over the centuries (as well as evil work (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#dropping)), but its limits, both in epistemological terms as well as political-economic, render it essentially worthless for solving our most pressing issues. As Bucky Fuller stated, science is a slave profession (http://ahealedplanet.net/roots.htm#slave), controlled by the ruling class, and it operates in a straightjacket of what it is allowed to explore. That is the box that Horgan and his colleagues cannot seem to even imagine that they live in.

It was interesting to read of Horgan’s encounters with many big names in science. The Washington Post review stated that Horgan cornered “several dozen of earth’s crankiest, most opinionated, most exasperating scientists to get their views on where science is and where it’s going.” That was an apt description. Horgan generally met them in their cluttered offices, and the sense I got was how much they all lived in their heads. Not necessarily in a bad way, but that list that I produced above was far outside of all of their realities. Mainstream science plays a small game today.

Hi:

In Ed’s last online essay (https://monthlyreview.org/2017/07/01/fake-news-on-russia-and-other-official-enemies/), he wrote about the McCarthyite spectacle of PropOrNot (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#propornot) and how the Washington Post, which Bezos owns, promoted it, and Ed noted the ominous rise of Facebook and Google (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#facebook). Well, the PropOrNot incident was just the warmup, as Facebook erased several accounts on PropOrNot’s blacklist (https://www.commondreams.org/news/2018/10/12/facebook-accused-full-frontal-suppression-dissent-after-independent-media-swept-mass) in recent days.

The erasure of my work at Wikipedia (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/105-My-Edward-Herman-biography-project/page3?p=1368&viewfull=1#post1368) was gentle fascism compared to what Facebook just did, and in a leaked internal document (https://www.dropbox.com/s/llxn76ntakmxp0l/the-good-censor-watermarked.pdf?dl=0), even Google recently admitted that it was getting into the censorship business (https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2018/10/11/cens-o11.html). Great alternative media sites such as Counterpunch (https://www.counterpunch.org) are being wiped out by this offensive. As with Wikipedia’s erasure of my work, and as with their banning of Krishna (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/105-My-Edward-Herman-biography-project/page4?p=1446&viewfull=1#post1446), Facebook just made it up as it went along, playing cop, prosecutor, judge, jury, and executioner to those erased accounts, on flimsy and false pretexts. When the PropOrNot article came out, some of their blacklisted sites tried to get a class action lawsuit going, but they did not join together and do it, to my knowledge. What Facebook did is ripe for huge lawsuits, and I hope that those erased sites stand up and do something, because the next steps are going to be to wipe out their sites completely and ban them from the Internet. The steep slide to Internet fascism is here.

Hi:

Some odds and ends this morning. I am reading Schrödinger’s What is Life? (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/What_Is_Life%3F) and Mind and Matter. His What is Life? was credited by both Watson and Crick as an inspiration in their effort to find DNA’s double-helix structure. Schrödinger (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#schroedinger), like Einstein (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#einstein), was not too enamored with science’s ability to deal with the big questions of existence.

Here is another article on how the tech giants are attacking free speech (http://planetfreewill.com/big-tech-greatest-bait-and-switch-in-american-history-free-speech/) today. Capitalism (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#economists) and freedom are actually on opposite ends of the spectrum, although the propaganda (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#manufacturing) tells us otherwise.

As a coda to Horgan’s book (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page13?p=1475&viewfull=1#post1475), and I’ll likely read his “mystical” book that I ordered, he wrote that in his classes, he had his students read JFK’s inauguration speech, about how war, poverty, tyranny, and infectious disease would soon end. Then he asked his students if the speech was “plausible or utopian hogwash,” and his students went with hogwash. Then he showed his students how great progress had been made on all of those fronts since JFK’s idealistic speech. In the same preface, Horgan said that war might soon end, as we will recognize how war is “stupid and immoral,” and will put an end to it.

The irony of Horgan’s words was not lost on me. JFK was murdered (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit?p=1398&viewfull=1#post1398) for pursuing just the goals that he mentioned in his inauguration speech, and the people who had him murdered have been Earth’s chief warmongers (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#early) since World War II. In ways, humanity has made large strides in realizing JFK’s vision (while we also stand at the edge of the abyss (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#spaceshipearth)), but the USA has often been at the forefront of thwarting those goals (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#perkins). That part of the JFK story is one that I doubt that Horgan can digest, and is part of the problem with white guys, especially academics. Maybe Horgan secretly wishes that he could be more honest in his public writings, but I doubt it. What is far more likely is that he has been captured by his paradigm (http://ahealedplanet.net/intro.htm#blinded).

Horgan thinks that we just have to realize how stupid and immoral war is, while he lives in Earth’s most warlike nation, as it invades nation after nation (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#iraq), with the streets regularly filled with the blood of mass shootings, as the cops bust head after head (several of those accounts that Facebook and Twitter just wiped out were about exposing police brutality in the USA). I did not see any Chomskyan words in Horgan’s book, about the USA’s taking a good look in the mirror. According to Pinker’s propaganda (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#pinker), we have already achieved a largely peaceful world, while he lives in the heart of the benevolent empire. In Morris’s work, we are supposed to cheer on the American Empire (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page12?p=1327&viewfull=1#post1327) while we wait for Singularity. I didn’t see any of those white academics taking the American Empire to task. As Noam has said, that is one of the problems with intellectuals (https://chomsky.info/19670223/), and hardly any living scientist can honestly grapple with the reality of my recent post (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/10-Chapter-4-The-Orthodox-Framework-and-its-Limitations?p=1477&viewfull=1#post1477), even Noam. Is just the world we live in today. Of course, it doesn’t need to be that way (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5).

I presume that by "World War II" you are referring to Julius Caesar's second Gallic campaign, the Campaign against the Suebi (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gallic_Wars#Campaign_against_the_Suebi) in 58 BC ? <grin>.

Though perhaps I should go back to Greek, Egyptian, Phoenician, Babylonian or Sumerian history ... but I don't know those as well.

... or ancient history in China, Central Asia, Africa, the Pacific or the Americas, which I know even less well ... ?

Anyway ... all a sick joke, to suggest that "they" have been at this, under one or another coat of arms, for a long, long time.

Hi Paul (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1254646&viewfull=1#post1254646):

As Krishna says, it goes back to chimps (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#coalitionary)! :) Predation is very old (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#predation1), and it still influences us. Ah yes, the Romans, those imperial latecomers (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#alexander).

But seriously, the GCs (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc) are playing a game as old as civilization, and so are the people steering the American ship. That essay of Noam’s that I linked to (https://chomsky.info/19670223/) in the previous post was kind of his coming out party, as far as politics goes. This passage from it is classic Noam:

“We are hardly the first power in history to combine material interests, great technological capacity, and an utter disregard for the suffering and misery of the lower orders. The long tradition of naiveté and self-righteousness that disfigures our intellectual history, however, must serve as a warning to the third world, if such a warning is needed, as to how our protestations of sincerity and benign intent are to be interpreted.”

Noam kind of takes it easy on American imperialism, saying that everybody that could do it, did, and they never admitted that their imperial undertakings were crimes. They always self-righteously justified it. It is just might makes right. As Krishna says, “chimpism.” What made JFK a bit different is that his ancestors suffered under the imperial boot, and it made him a bit of a reluctant imperialist, and he had to go.

Hi:

If I write a book, it is going to be a fairly easy effort, as it will only be an abridged version of my big essay. This morning, I drafted the book’s preface, below. We’ll see what the final version looks like, but it likely won’t stray too far from what I sketched this morning, if I do end up writing that book.

Best,

Wade

This book was not written with the intent that it becomes a bestseller. I have a very specific readership in mind. In order to become popular, a book has to appeal to popular beliefs, or at least not challenge them, but my writings since the 1990s have been an exercise in iconoclasm. I don’t write like I do for the joy of it, but because the people I seek need to have already discarded their indoctrination and conditioning, or be well on the way to achieving it, to assist with my effort, which is nothing less than helping manifest the biggest event in the human journey (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5).

If that interests you, please read on. However, my writings challenge the popular beliefs in my home nation, which include:

Money (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#exchange) makes the world go around, and energy is a mere resource that is ancillary to market forces;
The mainstream media (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#big) provides truthful information;
The history books (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#more) tell us what really happened;
The energy (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm) and medical (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm) establishments are trying their best to develop the best technologies and practices for humanity;
Politicians are heroic figures (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#fathers) who serve the common good;
Scientists have the universe largely figured out (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#einstein) and know all of nature’s “laws” of consequence;
We are alone in the universe (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#big), or there is no convincing evidence to the contrary;
Prominent humanitarians and philanthropists (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#philanthropy) are doing their best to serve humanity;
Environmental organizations (http://ahealedplanet.net/purpose.htm#environmentalists) are doing their best to heal Earth;
The American military (http://ahealedplanet.net/herman.htm#early) is defending freedom and seeks a peaceful and prosperous humanity, and has since World War II (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#good), when it saved the world;
Capitalism (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#economists) is the ideal economic system, and free markets abound in the USA and the West;
The technologies on the market today are the cutting-edge best (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ideal) that humanity is currently capable of;
The West’s nations are functioning democracies (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#wtc);
Something akin to justice (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#jail) is dispensed by the American legal system;
Covert action (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#cia) is a noble effort intended to serve the common good, or at least the welfare of the populace of the sponsoring nations;
The world’s religions, or any one of them, have a monopoly on spiritual truth (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#serving);
The majority of humanity, or even a sizeable fraction of it, really cares about issues with an impact beyond their immediate self-interest (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#burn) or the welfare of their social circles.

Other nations will have their own popular beliefs, but the above ideas are commonly accepted in the West, and most of humanity subscribes to at least some of them. If you don’t want to have those ideas that I listed above challenged, you may want to read something else. A primary reason for my iconoclasm is that I consider those ideas to be delusions, for good reason, and when people are in thrall to them, they will not be productive in assisting an effort like mine. Instead, they will unerringly head toward disaster (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#approaches), which in my field can mean a wrecked and prematurely ended life. I have already seen more than my fair share of carnage (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#journey), don’t want to be responsible for any more, and don’t see the point of it. I am only interested in what I think will help manifest that event. Time is short to avert a global catastrophe (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#spaceshipearth), and I only have so many good years left to me to try out my unprecedented approach (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir).

This book is merely an abridged version of an essay that I first published on the Internet in 2014. That essay will be freely available for at least as long as I live, and this book is only an easy-to-read introduction to my work, for people who prefer reading books. I have been asked to publish a book for many years, and I finally delivered one. The electronic version of this book, with links, is also freely available on my website.

Hi:

This will be a post on my theme of getting from unawareness to knowledge (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/125-The-Journey-from-Unawareness-to-Knowledge?p=1456&viewfull=1#post1456). When I hear of people wanting to “believe” in free energy, or ETs (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ufo2), or harmless, cheap, and effective cancer treatments (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#suppress), my reaction is that belief is really not something that I encourage people to attain, but knowledge. Belief is a poor substitute for knowledge. I have little use for faith, either. And all of those terms – knowledge, belief, faith, and the like – can be argued about plenty, as far as what each means. Do I have faith that the Sun will come up tomorrow, or belief, or knowledge? Depending on the person making the assessment, any of the three might apply. Knowledge might be a bit of a stretch, since it has not happened yet. Strictly speaking, nobody can know about something that has not yet happened. Does anybody want to bet me that the Sun won’t come up several hours from now? Give me some odds. :) Do I call it belief that it will come up, when the Sun has come up for every day of my life? In fact, it defined every day. So, do I call it faith? If so, it is not much of a leap of faith to believe that the Sun will come up tomorrow.

There are all various schools of thought on this issue, and a branch of philosophy (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epistemology) is devoted to the idea of knowledge, and philosophers have long argued about belief (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belief), knowledge (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epistemology#Acquiring_knowledge), and faith (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faith). It can get into hoary realms of debate, and I am not too interested in that. For me, knowledge is based on experience, ideally my own. We can say that belief can be based on somebody else’s knowledge or evidence that tends to support a belief, until more experience can be obtained, to either bring it into the realm of knowledge or discard it as invalid. My friend knows that free energy (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/108-The-Global-Controllers?p=1173&viewfull=1#post1173) and antigravity (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/97-Steven-Greer-s-Latest-UFO-ET-Disclosure-Effort?p=1355&viewfull=1#post1355) technology exists, and much more, but some might say that he might have been deceived, was making it up, and there are other ways to dismiss his testimony to me. People can accuse me of making it up, etc., like Gary has been accused of making up his John Tower story (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/123-Gary-Wean-Me-and-the-JFK-Hit?p=1398&viewfull=1#post1398). This kind of reasoning can be used to say that almost nobody alive really knows that men have walked on the Moon (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#apollo). If you have not walked on the Moon yourself, you do not know. That is partly why Brian said what he did (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianbio.htm#statement) about the issue.

When I encounter “skepticism,” dismissal, disbelief, personal attacks, and the like regarding the events of my journey and those of my close fellow travelers, it is invariably of the armchair variety. It is easy to scoff, dismiss, etc., and much more difficult to get out of one’s armchair and find out for one’s self. When I told Brian about my friend’s underground technology show (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#underground), he was not even surprised. In our circles, it is “common knowledge” that those technologies are on the planet today. Brian did not get one of those shows, but he had seen enough and heard enough from his colleagues that getting an exotic technology demonstration was in the category of, “Another day at the office for the GCs (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc).” Brian’s life was shortened, courtesy of the American military, when he snooped into the UFO issue (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#attack). Getting an exotic technology demonstration in our circles was no big deal.

But how can Joe Average get closer to knowledge on the issue? That is part of the conundrum, and most posts are coming on that issue.

Best,

Wade

Hi:

The indispensable aspect of going from unawareness to knowledge is to awaken (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=309&viewfull=1#post309). I can’t overemphasize its importance, and the people whose awakenings were the most important that I have seen began their journeys as true believers (http://ahealedplanet.net/paths.htm#scouts), to finally be rudely disabused of their naïveté. It never happened overnight, but their experiences culminated in an awakening moment, which could be dramatic and life-threatening. Dennis’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#voice) and Ralph McGehee’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/mcgehee.htm#saigon) are two of the most potent that I have encountered. Dennis’s journey to his awakening moment (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis?p=576&viewfull=1#post576) alone is hard to believe, as it passed through Vietnam (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page9?p=778&viewfull=1#post778) and the like. Ralph’s awakening moment was in Vietnam, and both men nearly killed themselves as they finally awoke to the Big Lies of their conditioning. Again, I don’t recommend waking up that way, but the power of an awakening like that will reverberate throughout one’s lifetime. Both men still had plenty of naiveté to shed after their awakening moments, but that awakening moment set them on their radical paths. What happened to them was similar to Kuhn’s paradigm shifts (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#introduction). For people to change their personal paradigms in their lifetimes is exceedingly rare. The data outside of their paradigms slowly built up, bringing cognitive dissonance (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#cognitive) with it, and it eventually led to the moment when their paradigms shifted.

My cognitive dissonance began building during my first existential crisis (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#voice), ebbed during my capitalist and spiritual studies (but I made naïve attempts to reconcile them), began climbing again in my last year at the university and the early years of my career (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#believing), but it was all only a prelude to my meeting Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#hitting). The next three years comprised my life’s greatest learning experience, and my moment of awakening was on the witness stand (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page5?p=681&viewfull=1#post681), while the prosecution made faces at me while I testified in Kangaroo Court. My paradigm finally made its shift, but the process took more than a decade. Ralph was 16 years into his career with the CIA when he had his awakening moment. Dennis’s was more than a decade after he was forced to leave home at age 13.

Without that awakening process, and only for people whose hearts are in the right place (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=308&viewfull=1#post308) can such an awakening be productive, they will never be able to shed their conditioning. Roads’s mentor said it best: those awakenees chose love (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?32399-A-Future-Earth&p=672748&viewfull=1#post672748). So, learning the truth of our world necessitates waking up and shedding the lies that we are all fed (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm). I found that a love of the truth set them apart. They were unwilling to settle for the comforting and self-serving fictions of their indoctrination, but wanted to know the truth. The vast majority of humanity will believe any lie, as long as believing it feeds them. So it is, in a world of scarcity and fear (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#coming). That is not a pretty realization (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#burn), but it is the truth, and denying that truth is how free energy and other activists get into trouble (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#approaches).

I have generalized the process, and as I have written plenty, that awakening can happen in all walks of life, anyplace on Earth. It does not have to be on the high road to free energy, like mine was, and I don’t recommend waking up that way. While I did not consider killing myself, I had to face the thoughts of wanting to kill others, and it was the lowest point of my journey (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#it).

Once that awakening moment has been achieved, then what? Just as Ralph and Dennis did not immediately figure it all out, and mine meant the beginning of the studies (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page7?p=739&viewfull=1#post739) that resulted in my public work, that awakening moment does not mean instant enlightenment and an automatic influx of knowledge. What it does mean is that the awakenee is finally ready to truly learn. And that is where my work can be useful.

Brian and I had our mystical awakenings (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=312&viewfull=1#post312) long before our radicalizations, and I would say that our mystical awakenings were kind of a prelude to our later awakenings, which we might call our political-economic awakenings. Dennis’s political-economic awakening moment (the first of many) and mystical awakening happened at the same time, in an event much larger than life (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#voice). Brian’s astronaut (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#early), Ivy League (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#after), and Capitol Hill (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#udall) days were really before he woke up. Only in retrospect could Brian see how those early experiences prepared him for what came later, as it was with my journey. However, Ralph, Brian, and Dennis never quite put away their American flags (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#flag), and Dennis still bangs his Bible, so even as awakened as they were, they still dragged around some of their baggage. The price of awakening and staying there is eternal vigilance. The siren song of our conditioning (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/4-The-Song-of-Scarcity?p=10&viewfull=1#post10) serenades us each day. As I look back at my life, the first hint of things to come was when my family went “health nut” and my father “impossibly” reversed the hardening of his arteries (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#lessons).

I listed those critical junctures of my journey (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/125-The-Journey-from-Unawareness-to-Knowledge?p=1465&viewfull=1#post1465), which were key aspects of my awakening process and pursuit of the truth. All people who awaken will have their own journeys, and as long as they come to a place of awakening, that is really what matters. I can work with that. I don’t expect any of the people that I seek to have experience in the free energy milieu, but they will have enough experience to recognize my journey. It really takes one to know one, which is why I became Dennis’s and Brian’s biographers, and why Ralph said that I had written the best summary of his journey (http://ahealedplanet.net/mcgehee.htm#synopsis). The people that I seek will recognize their own journeys in ours, and that is a huge first step in the journey from unawareness to knowledge in the free energy field.

Without that first step, the rest really can’t happen. Otherwise, if people encounter the free energy milieu, they have knee-jerk denial (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level1), armchair “skepticism (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level3),” a tabloid fascination with the undeniable conspiratorial aspects of the field (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#make), from inventors hiding in their secret labs (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level7) to the GCs and their minions (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc) to the underground exotic technology shows (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#underground) that some have witnessed. They will be trapped in those early layers of awareness and never graduate onto the path of productive knowledge.

Best,

Wade
