WEDNESDAY NIGHT, AUGUST 5


12-1 Dave Emory, ‘‘For the Record #1137 - Lyme Disease and Biological Warfare, Part 3”

JUNE 30, 2020 

 

Further developing the links between biological warfare research and the Lyme Disease establishment, we review information from FTR #585.

 

At every turn, Lyme disease research is inextricably linked with biological warfare research. Divided into the “Steere” and “ILADS” camps, the Lyme disease research community is split between the view that the disease is “hard-to-catch, easy-to-cure” and the diametrically opposed view that the disease is very serious and produces long-term neurological disorder. The Steere camp diminishes the significance of the disease and is closely identified with biological warfare research. At the epicenter of Lyme disease research (and the Steere camp) are members of the Epidemic Intelligence Service, or EIS. EIS personnel are to be found at every bend in the road of Lyme disease research.

 

The Borrelia genus has long been researched as a biological warfare vector. Note that Unit 731 personnel and their files were put to work for the United States after World War II, much like the Project Paperclip scientists from Germany. ” . . . borrelia were known for their ability to adopt different forms under conditions of stress (such as exposure to antibiotics). Shedding their outer wall, (which is the target of penicillin and related drugs), they could ward off attack and continue to exist in the body.  . .”

 

Much of the program is devoted to excerpting and analysis of a 2013 posting by Elena Cook. This discussion of “Spirochete Warfare,” in turn, makes liberal use of material from a 1944 text about Japan’s biological warfare program. This book “Japan’s Secret Weapon,” contains a great deal of information about Japanese pioneering of the use of spirochetes as biological warfare organisms.

 

This material is to be considered in the historical and political context of the incorporation of the key personnel and files of the notorious Japanese Unit 731 biological warfare division into the U.S. BW program after World War II….

 

 

The program concludes with more experimental evidence of the production of amyloid deposits characteristic of Alzheimer’s Disease: ” . . . To determine whether an analogous host reaction to that occurring in AD could be induced by infectious agents, we exposed mammalian glial and neuronal cells in vitro to Borrelia burgdorferi spirochetes . . . Morphological changes analogous to the amyloid deposits of AD brain were observed following 2–8 weeks of exposure to the spirochetes. . . These observations indicate that, by exposure to bacteria or to their toxic products, host responses similar in nature to those observed in AD may be induced.

THURSDAY NIGHT, AUGUST 6

Commemorating the atomic bombing of Japan August 6 and 9, 1945, 75 years ago.


12-6 “The Last Train from Hiroshima”

by Charles Pellegrino

Read by Arthur Morey 

 

This gripping and amazing book will be partially read in part because August 6 and “August 9th are the 75th Anniversaries of the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, signaling the end of WW II.  The importance of this anniversary is particularly emphasized because in 2020, after 75 years of non use of the nuclear bomb,  the ‘red button’ is in the hands of a psychopath.

 

Several decades ago I heard a short news clip about 30 Japanese who survived the Hiroshima bomb and then took the train to Nagasaki in time to be bombed a second time, and survive.  When this book was published in 2010 it was the answer of a lot of questions I had harbored for decades, with gripping details far beyond my wonderment.  This book was a must for the program, so I contacted Tantor Media for permission and then Charles Pellegrino about - ummm – controversy!   

 

Mr. Pellegrino told me that he had been given false information by an American interviewee pertaining to details on the preparation of the bomb on the B-29, Enola Gay, on the island of Tinian.  Thus this adventure is left out of the replay on KPFK.  As I recall, I played the entire rest of the book (13 hours) a couple of times in previous August years.   But this year we’ll hear a portion of the book as much as time allows in one night.

 

In 1945, I celebrated the victory of the bomb and the end of the war which had been part of my whole life, and Peace was something new.  I became an ‘expert’ in the atomic bomb as much as my age allowed. In my childhood, one of the great questions about my future, in fact, was whether to be a soldier, sailor, or marine.   Pacifica Radio played no small part in altering my plans.

 

I think that this partial reading of “The Last Train from Hiroshima” will enforce or alter your feelings about atomic war.
