selected regions over an extended period...‘ No matter how deeply disturbing the thought of using the environment to manipulate behaviour for national advantages, to some the technology permit- ting such use will very probably develop within the next few decades. In 1966, MacDonald was a member of the President's Science Advisory Committee and later a member of the President's Council on Environmental Quality. He published papers on the use of environmental control technologies for military purposes. The most profound comment he made as a geophysicist was: The key to geophysical warfare is the identification of environ- mental instabilities to which the addition of a small amount of energy would release vastly greater amounts of energy. While yesterday's geophysicists predicted today's advances, are HAARP program managers delivering on the vision? The geo- physicists recognised that adding energy to the environmental soup could have large effects. However, humankind has already added substantial amounts of electromagnetic energy.into our environment without understanding what might constitute critical mass. The book by Begich and Manning raises questions. Have these additions been without effect, or is there a cumulative amount beyond which irreparable damage can be done? Is pectedly high altitude so that missiles encounter unexpected and unplanned drag forces with resultant destruction... Weather modification is possible by, for example, altering upper atmosphere wind patterns by constructing one or more plumes of atmospheric particles which will act as a lens or focusing device. ..molecular modifications of the atmosphere can take place so that positive environmental effects can be achieved. Besides actu- ally changing the molecular composition of an atmospheric region, a particular molecule or molecules can be chosen for increased presence. For example, ozone, nitrogen, etc. concentra- tions in the atmosphere could be artificially increased... Begich found 11 other APTI patents. They told how to make "Nuclear-sized Explosions without Radiation", power-beaming systems, over-the-horizon radar, detection systems for missiles carrying nuclear warheads, electromagnetic pulses previously pro- duced by thermonuclear weapons and other "Star Wars" tricks, This cluster of patents underlays the HAARP weapon system. rrr rn rrr rte reg MENTAL MANIPULATION environment without “understanding what might constitute critical Related research by Begich and Manning uncovered bizarre mass.

F. MacDonald (Science Adviser to US President Johnson and a Professor of Geophysics at UCLA), as they wrote about use of power-beaming transmitters for geo- physical and environmental warfare. The documents showed how these effects might be caused, and the negative effects on human health and thinking. The mental-disruption possibilities for HAARP are the most disturbing. More than 40 pages of the book, with dozens of foot- notes, chronicle the work of Harvard profes- sors, military planners and scientists as they plan and test this use of the electromagnetic technology. For example, one of the papers describing this use was from the International Red Cross in Geneva. It even gave the frequency ranges where these effects could occur—the same ranges which HAARP is capable of broadcasting. The following statement was made more : \ US.
