2 • NEXUS
Editorial
wo issues ago, in NEXUS volume 18, number 5 (August–September
T 2011), I spent the entire editorial alerting readers to what I consider to
be the true hidden agenda for bringing about a new world order. I was
highlighting the points raised in the article titled "Technocracy, Carbon
Currency and Smart Grids", written by Patrick Wood. This is our description
of the article: "An economic system based on energy production and
consumption instead of price, and a global electrical network using
interconnected smart technologies, may fulfil Technocracy's ideological plan
to exert centralised control over the world's population."
Well, in the last few months we've seen rapid moves towards exactly what
was said in that article. The economic crisis in Europe has already resulted
in unelected technocrats being installed in both Greece and Italy, and this
trend is likely to continue in more countries. On top of this, Australia has
taken a major step towards the implementation of the new economic order
by adopting a carbon tax. More and more money in both developed and
developing countries is being spent on infrastructure that will be part of this
new energy order. Do you know that in Greece, the extra money being
dragged out of its citizens as part of the "austerity measures" program is
paid via the electricity and utility bills? I say forget all the conspiracy
theories you have read or heard about: this new global order based on
energy currency is being put into place right under our noses.
Okay, on to the articles in this issue. Once again, I would like to reiterate
how the gap between the reality you see reported on the news and what is
actually going on has become so big that even many NEXUS readers have
trouble comprehending the scale of the deception. One example of this is
the covert conquest of Africa by the usual suspects, using so-called
independent media organisations like Al Jazeera as credible sources. If you
live in Australia and watch SBS or ABC TV news, you now see Al Jazeera's
logo on nearly every news item dealing with Syria, Libya, Egypt, Pakistan
and any of the other "hotspots" where your opinions need massaging. We
have two short articles which go a long way towards explaining how the
deceptions have been organised.
Another topic that I feel strongly about, and wish more people would
understand, is pleomorphism. This is the transformation of one organism
into another as a result of changed conditions in the blood. To comprehend
this better, it helps if you view blood as akin to soil. We all know that some
seeds will not germinate in some soils until conditions change. It is roughly
the same with your blood and your health. You can "catch" all sorts of
pathogens which might lie dormant forever in your blood; but if your blood
chemistry and pH change enough, then many dormant pathogens can
"germinate" and flourish. Not only that, but many of these organisms, such
as E. coli, have been observed to "change" into other more undesirable
forms, but only when the blood has become more "toxic". E. coli bacteria
have been observed to change into other microbes that then change into
tuberculosis bacteria and then into Candida fungi. We have two articles
dealing with this most important subject from different angles. If I were to
summarise them, I'd say to you to keep your blood as clean and healthy as
possible. It is from toxic blood that all illness stems!
Well, 2011 is drawing to a close and the much-anticipated 2012 is just
around the corner. I don't believe in sudden doom for 2012, but I do believe
that change is the only constant in this universe. On that note, I wish all
readers everywhere a safe and rewarding journey.

ne Monday in mid-February 1989,

O Alec Newald set off on what

should have been a three-hour
drive from Rotorua to Auckland in New
Zealand.
He arrived in Auckland feeling
tired and confused, but was even
more confused to learn that
Monday was now Thursday ten
days later, and that he had no idea
of what had happened in the
meantime!
When Alec did retrieve his
memories of those missing ten
days, he realised his life had
changed forever.
Early on in that fateful trip,
while driving through a foggy
mountain pass, Alec was
whisked from the road by
beings from an extraterrestrial
civilisation.
What he learned and experienced during his stay with
these friendly beings has profound implications for all of us here on Earth.
Soon after his 'return', Alec received strange visits from 'government scientists'
wanting to know about his experience. Among other things, they were keen to learn
what he had noticed about the capabilities of this alien race. Alec was uncooperative
and soon found himself in 'hot water'.
It was obvious that these 'scientists' knew all about Alec's 'abductors' and expected
they would return to Earth one day—soon.

Priceless Information
Dear Editor: A salute to
your informative and
remarkable magazine.
Thank you for publishing
Dr Steven Rochlitz's series
of articles [18/06, 18/04,
18/03, 18/01]. All of these
presented exceptionally well
researched, unique and
priceless information.

Carbon Tax Madness
Dear Duncan: Australia
has recently passed a law
introducing a carbon tax, to
go into effect in July 2012.
Other places around the
world that already have a
carbon tax include Ireland,
Norway, Sweden and some
states of the USA.
The strange thing about
this carbon tax in Australia is
that it only taxes one of the
greenhouse gases (GHG).
There are many other GHGs
that escape into the
atmosphere that will not be
taxed. A significant one is
methane, which has a global
warming potential compared
to CO2 at a staggering 105
and 33 more on a mass-to-
mass basis for 20 and 100
years respectively.
Shale gas mining and coal
seam gas mining are now
much more economically
viable, even though their
GHG footprint, considering
the entire extraction and
production processes and
all the greenhouse gases
that are released, is at least
as great as or a fair bit
higher than that of coal.
The carbon tax is only on
the amount of CO2 released
when the fuel is burned at
the end use of the product.
In Ireland, full relief from
the carbon tax is granted for
natural gas if it is shown to
4 • NEXUS
be supplied for use in
electricity generation, for
chemical reduction or for
electrolytic or metallurgical
processes. In the USA, the
comparison between coal
and natural gas is that coal
is between $1.40 and $1.47
per million btu of fuel and
natural gas is only $0.80.
In Australia, many new
liquid natural gas (LNG)
production facilities and
shipping ports have been
approved inside the World
Heritage–listed Great Barrier
Reef. The construction
phase is already causing
environmental damage. The
fish in these harbours have a
strange disease. The large
ships that will frequent
these harbours cannot slow
down quickly and may kill
many animals that cannot
get out of the way, including
the endangered dugong and
rare species of dolphin.
It costs even more in fuel
to compress this gas, and
venting occurs in the
process, so the greenhouse
gas footprint will be even
higher for LNG. Exported
gas will not have any
Australian carbon tax placed
on it, making LNG even
more viable for these
companies to export.
When you think about it, if
the carbon tax is supposed
to help the environment,
why don't we have a
radiation tax? After all, the
release of radiation into the
atmosphere is causing
u n p r e c e d e n t e d
environmental damage
around the world. Instead,
nuclear power has been
touted as a clean fuel
because it doesn't release
carbon dioxide. Great logic!

Health Disgrace in the UK
Dear NEXUS: I came away
with a copy of your
magazine that I saw at
Martin Walker's book
signing in March and have
been trying ever since to
pluck up the courage to
contact you regarding the
National Health Service
(NHS) hamster wheel of
shame: the lack of any real
support for people like my
husband, who has an
environmentally induced
illness, and all the many,
many thousands of people
like him with multi-organ,
multi-symptom conditions.
It is a real disgrace that
the money spent on trying
to hide this problem could
well be used over and over
again not only to support
these people (and many
more) but probably to kick-
start the whole UK economy
by getting the majority back
on the road to recovery and
into the workforce again.
As a carer with over 30
years of dealing with my
husband's illness, I have
now got to the stage where
enough is enough. My voice
and the voices of others like
me just need to be heard,
and the real truth in medical
and social care in the UK
must be confronted.
With respect,
Kate B., UK
Microwave Targeting
Dear NEXUS: I discovered
that you've published
several articles on covert
military weapons that emit
microwaves.
I thought I was a normal,
average, single mum until I
started having problems
with a vindictive ex-partner
four years ago. Things
escalated to the point where
DECEMBER 2011 – JANUARY 2012
I became aware that I was
being targeted by an
invisible means that burned
my skin and left me with
catastrophic side effects.
I was poisoned with
thallium last December–
January, and miraculously I
survived. The only way I
discovered that I'd been
poisoned is because an
American pathology lab
could detect the substance.
Thallium has been banned
since the 1950s.
What countermeasures
are there for silent, scared
victims like myself? Can you
offer help or advice? I've
been trying to compile as
much evidence as possible
regarding electromagnetic
radiation.
Kind regards,
Pippa

space to reply in detail but there's

Simple Treatment for Burns
Dear Duncan: Thanks for
the best magazine on the
planet. I have attached my
paper on the Fiji/Schelker
Burn Treatment in the hope
that you would put it into
one of your future issues.
I am attempting to get this
information out there so
that every person on the
planet is aware of this
simple and universally
available treatment for
burns. I have a graphic artist
doing a pictorial depiction
for the world so that even
children can see how to
treat the burn.
For the past 15 years, I
have been living and
practising chiropractic
naturopathic medicine in
Fiji. Your magazine has
been an important part of
my life since I discovered it
 ... more Letters to the Editor
in 1993 when I read your
article on the "Chiropractic
Cover-up" [see NEXUS 2/16].
I have been compiling
everything your magazine
has printed on the issues
related to vaccinations and
will be distributing this to
the public for free or for the
cost of copying.
Sincerely,
Byron Cragun, DC, Fiji
• The Fiji/Schelker Burn
Treatment:
1. Immediately after being
burned, get a raw egg and
separate the white from the
yolk.
2. Apply a generous
amount of egg white to the
burn with your fingers.
3. Have a fan of some type
direct air, or blow with the
mouth, onto the egg white
to get it to dry.
4. Repeat several times a
day, including once before
bed, and maybe the next day
if necessary.
5. Next day, gently wash
off the dried egg white from
the skin. Apply fresh egg
white if necessary.
The sooner the egg white
is applied to the burn, the
less chance there is for
blistering, infection and
scarring. After application,
you may choose to go to a
health care provider.
[Thanks, Byron. This sounds
most interesting. I've also read
your more detailed explanation at
http://tinyurl.com/5t7lgyv. I'd
like to add that raw ripe tomato
wiped onto burns, especially
sunburn, is also a miracle burn
treatment. Ed.]
Climate Geo-engineering
Hello Duncan: I have two
pieces of information that I
would like to share with you.
The first is some news
regarding wind turbines.
DECEMBER 2011 – JANUARY 2012
Near the village where I live,
here in France, there turns
France's prototype wind
turbine with five others that
were erected soon after (in
the year 2000). They are
regularly repaired, at least
once a year. Soon they will
be past their "sell by" date,
and this new invention
might save them.
I walk my dogs up around
the wind turbines (called
éoliennes in French)
practically every day;
wonderful views from the
hilltop, but lots of wind!
Please have a look at this
news item regarding
reducing the cost of wind
turbines in California; it's at
http://tinyurl.com/6lzvsg8.
The second piece of
information that I would like
to draw to your attention is
regarding "chemtrails".
Jonathan Benson reported
on 21 September 2011:
"[T]he Stratospheric Particle
Injection for Climate Change
Engineering (SPICE)
program (yes, this is a real
program that confirms the
existence of 'chemtrails')
has been given $30,000 to
build a giant pipe that
spews water and sulfates a
[kilometre] up into the
stratosphere. Supported at
the end by a giant 'stadium-
size hydrogen balloon', the
pipe will allegedly mimic the
effects of a volcanic
eruption, which the team
building it insists will help
to 'cool' the Earth."
This plan to pump toxic
sulphate particles into the
sky is supposedly designed
to send natural sunlight
back into space and
ultimately prevent the Earth
from warming, says a 14
September 2011 Scientific
American online article
www.nexusmagazine.com
highlighting this new geo-
engineering endeavour
being undertaken by UK
scientists.
Benson goes on to say:
"Besides the strangeness of
the project itself, the
Scientific American report's
admission that airplanes
have already been used as
one of the delivery modes
for sulfate particles in the
past also confirms the
existence of chemtrails, or
the deliberate aerosol
seeding of the sky by planes
with unknown particles."

I am getting withdrawal
symptoms waiting for the
next issue of NEXUS. I've
re-read lots in the last three
issues because there's so
much info that I let slip from
my mind.

Shag Harbour UFOs
Dear Editor: It was good
reading the article on Shag
Harbour [18/06]. I always
wonder whether there is a
connection between that
incident and the mystery of
Oak Island, which is only 10
miles from Shag Harbour.
Oak Island is said to be
the work of Francis Bacon,
with connection to the
Knights Templar and maybe
even to the Holy Grail/Ark of
the Covenant. This link at
http://tinyurl.com/236da6g
mentions ancient advanced
technology and so, in turn,
leads us back to UFOs.
A similar and more recent
true or fictitious story is
about the finding of an
ancient Stargate technology
in the Gulf of Aden, with
UFOs and international navy
warships in the area.

TGA versus Thermography
Dear Editor: I'm deeply
concerned about the
continuing actions of the
TGA [Therapeutic Goods
Administration] in taking
away our choices of natural
health care in Australia. I
sometimes wonder whom
the TGA is representing: the
public or the sickness-
industry vested interests.
If I choose to have a
painless, non-invasive,
digital thermal breast check,
rather than painful, breast-
crushing, potentially lymph-
drainage-channel-damaging
mammography, then that is
my decision.
Thermography is an
accurate modality that is
widely used overseas, and
Australian women should
have the right to access it.
The clinics that have outlaid
substantial sums on these
machines should be allowed
to operate without having
their businesses undermined
by the TGA.
Mammography gives a
cumulative dose of
radiation, and research has
shown that it can set off a
pre-cancerous condition. It
is also not infallible.
In addition, I'd like to know
why the TGA still allows the
use of toxic chemicals and
some prescription drugs in
Australia which have been
banned overseas.
It's time for the Federal
government to have an
investigation into this
supposed regulatory body
and its activities.

 DUTCH PROFESSOR
FAKED DATA FOR YEARS
prominent Dutch social
A psychologist, who once
claimed to have shown that
the very act of thinking
about eating meat makes
people behave more
selfishly, has been found to
have faked data throughout
most of his career.
In one of the worst cases
of scientific fraud on record
in the Netherlands, a review
committee made up of some
of the country's top
scientists has found that
Professor Diederik Stapel, of
the University of Tilburg,
systematically falsified data
to achieve the results he wanted.
The university has fired the 45-
year-old Stapel and plans to file
fraud charges against him, said
spokesman Walther Verhoeven.
This year, Stapel co-authored a
paper published in Science magazine
which said that white people are
more prone to discriminate against
black people when they encounter
them in a messy environment, such
as one containing litter, abandoned
bicycles and broken sidewalks.

doctoral candidates whom Stapel
was mentoring to unmask him.
The review panel noted that Stapel
had enjoyed a position of prestige
as a professor and head of his
department and that he'd had
access to subsidies and funding for
his projects as a result of the fraud.

FILLING WITHOUT
DRILLING
esearchers at the
R University of Leeds
have discovered a pain-free
way of tackling dental
decay that reverses the
damage of acid attack and
rebuilds teeth as new.
Their solution is to arm
dentists with a peptide-
based fluid that is literally
painted onto the tooth's
surface. The peptide
technology is founded on
knowledge of how the tooth
forms in the first place, and
it stimulates regeneration of
the tooth defect.
"This may sound too good
to be true, but we are essentially
helping acid-damaged teeth to
regenerate themselves. It is a totally
natural non-surgical repair process
and is entirely pain-free, too," said
Professor Jennifer Kirkham, from the
University of Leeds Dental Institute,
who has led development of the new
technique.
The study is being funded by
credentis AG, which has licensed the
technology and is preparing to
introduce the P11-4 peptide fluid to
dentists worldwide.

ONE YEAR OF PRISON COSTS

Whereas one is a positive

PROTON-BASED TRANSISTOR
MAY LET MACHINES INTERFACE
WITH LIVING THINGS
H uman-made devices, from light
bulbs to iPods, send
information using electrons.
Human bodies and all other living
things, on the other hand, send
signals and perform work using
ions or protons.
Now, scientists at the University of
Washington have built a transistor
that uses protons, creating a key
piece for devices that can
communicate directly with living
things.
Devices that connect with the
human body's processes are being
explored for biological sensing and
for prosthetics, but they typically
communicate using electrons, which
are negatively charged particles,
rather than protons, which are
positively charged hydrogen atoms,
or ions, which are atoms with
positive or negative charge.
"So there's always this issue, a
challenge, at the interface: how
does an electronic signal translate
into an ionic signal, or vice versa?"
asked lead author Marco Rolandi, a
UW assistant professor of materials
science and engineering.
"We found a biomaterial that is
very good at conducting protons,
and allows the potential to interface
with living systems.
"In our device, large bio-inspired
molecules can move protons, and a
proton current can be switched on
and off in a way that's completely
analogous to an electronic current
in any other field-effect transistor,"
Rolandi said.
The device uses a modified form of
the compound chitosan, originally
extracted from squid pen, a
structure that has survived from
DECEMBER 2011 – JANUARY 2012
when squid had shells. The material
is compatible with living things, is
easily manufactured, and can be
recycled from crab shells and squid
pen discarded by the food industry.

CIA HAS RELATIONS WITH
MANY TERRORIST GROUPS
P akistan's Foreign Minister Hina
Rabbani Khar claims that the
Haqqani network was established
by the USA, adding that the CIA
also has relations with many other
terrorist groups.
In interviews with Arab and
American TV networks, she said that
the USA itself established the

Pakistan of having ties with it.
She said that the USA should take
care of the interests of Pakistan in
the war against terrorism, and noted
that Pakistan is facing terrorism on a
daily basis. No country is able to
control terrorism alone, she added.
The Foreign Minister pointed out
that Pakistan has sacrificed more

BRITISH MINISTER MISLED MPS
OVER DEPLETED URANIUM
he UK Armed Forces Minister,

Nick Harvey,
over misleading
statements he made regarding the
legality and dangers of depleted
uranium (DU) weapons.
The revelations come as a cross-
party campaign is launched to pile
pressure on the Ministry of Defence
to phase out the use of depleted
uranium. In 2013, the tank shells
that depend on it have to be
renewed.
Depleted uranium is a chemically
toxic and radioactive heavy metal
produced as waste by the nuclear
power industry. DU is included in
weaponry because it is an extremely
hard material capable of piercing
armour. Once the frontline has
moved on, however, it can
contaminate the environment, and it
has been linked to health problems
in civilian populations.
The British Army fired shells
containing 2.3 tonnes of DU during
the 1990–91 and 2003 Gulf wars. DU

In an 18 April 2011 CNN article,

PROMINENT DENTISTS SAY FLUORIDATED WATER IS HARMFUL
B reaking away from dental school dogma, more dentists are speaking out
against fluoridation because fluoride chemicals, added to the water
supply to reduce tooth decay, are actually a money-wasting health risk,
reports the New York State Coalition Opposed to Fluoridation (NYSCOF).
Hydrofluosilicic acid, a lead- and arsenic-laced chemical left over from
making phosphate fertiliser, is New York City's fluoride chemical of choice.
In 2008, fluoridation cost NYC approximately US$25 million.
Dr Caree Alexander, a former Royal Australian Navy practitioner and a
private-practice dentist for 20 years, says that fluoridation is "totally
ineffective and actually damaging as well". Dr Alexander says: "[W]hen I
graduated from university, we weren't given any information about where
[fluoride] came from. We all assumed it was [pharmaceutical-grade]
calcium fluoride."
Prominent New York City dentist Dr Thomas Connelly writes: "I do not
see the good in fluoridating our drinking water... To me, the 'bad' it can do
outweighs the good."
Dr Andrew Harms, former president of the Australian Dental Association,
who once supported fluoridation, says in the video documentary Fire Water:
"I deeply regret this… [W]hen I did read the science about 10 years ago, I
started to get serious concerns." He adds: "[T]o my amazement, when I
tried to raise the issue with the [Australian] Dental Association, whom I
thought were interested in the science and…integrity, there was no interest.
In fact, there was a lot of pressure against me to say anything at all. There
was a great concern about upsetting our principal sponsors, the toothpaste
manufacturers, who heavily compromise our university."
Dr Hardy Limeback, professor of preventive dentistry at the University of
Toronto, apologised for promoting fluoridation because toxicology
research shows that the purported benefits no longer outweigh the risks.
Dr Bill Osmunson, spokesperson for the Fluoride Action Network,
promoted fluoridation for 25 years until his patients persuaded him to read
the science. "It [was] like a knee in the gut," he says. "Science has turned
against fluoridation and we must stop adding fluoride to water."
Dr David Kennedy, International Academy of Oral Medicine and
Toxicology (IAOMT) past president and fluoride information officer, says:
"Water fluoridation delivers a drug to infants at a level which would be
gross malpractice if prescribed by a physician or dentist."
Over 3,790 professionals, including 324 dentists, have signed a statement
opposing water fluoridation (see http://tinyurl.com/86mkhad).
Attorney Paul Beeber, NYSCOF president, says: "The National Research
Council reported that fluoride, even at levels used for fluoridation, can
damage bones and teeth, disrupt thyroid function and be harmful to kidney
patients, and that studies linking fluoride to lowered IQ and cancer are
plausible." He adds: "All New York State communities should stop
fluoridation as soon as possible."
Dr Jennifer Luke says: "My [published] work showed that fluoride
accumulates in the human pineal gland and lowers melatonin production
in animals. I find it extraordinary that no government promoting
fluoridation has chosen to pursue these worrying findings."
Dr Elise Bassin published unrefuted scientific evidence showing that
fluoride can increase the risk of osteosarcoma (a type of bone cancer) in
boys and young men.
About 250 communities have stopped fluoridation in recent years.

established itself in the Arab world as an innovative news outlet,

What Future for Al Jazeera?
The conversion of Al Jazeera into a propaganda tool
for the recolonisation of Libya was not achieved without
the knowledge of the Emir of Qatar but, indeed, under
his leadership. The Gulf Cooperation Council was the
first to call for an armed intervention in Libya, and Qatar
was the first Arab country to join the Contact Group.
The Emir funnelled weapons to the Libyan "rebels"
before sending in his own ground troops, especially
during the Battle of Tripoli. In exchange, he obtained
the privilege of controlling all the oil trade on behalf of
the National Transitional Council.
It is too early to say whether the resignation of Wadah
Khanfar marks the end of his mission in Qatar, or if it
heralds the channel's desire to recover the credibility
that took 15 years to build and only six months to lose.

THE STATE OF QATAR

atar has been ruled as an absolute monarchy by the Al Thani family since the mid-19th century. Formerly a
Q British protectorate noted mainly for pearling, it became independent in 1971 and has become one of the
region’s wealthiest states due to its enormous oil and natural gas revenues.
The most important positions in Qatar are held by members of the Al Thani family or close confidants of the
family. Since 1992, Qatar has built intimate military ties with the United States and is now the location of the US
Central Command’s Forward Headquarters and its Combined Air Operations Center.

Qatari Law and Human Rights

In common with other Arab countries of the Persian Gulf, sponsorship laws exist in Qatar. These laws have been
widely described as akin to modern-day slavery. The sponsorship system means that a worker may not enter the
country without having a kafeel, or sponsor, and cannot leave without the kafeel’s permission (an exit permit must
first be awarded by the kafeel). The sponsor has the right to ban the employee from entering Qatar within two to
five years of his first departure.
Various governmental sponsors have recently exercised their right to prevent employees from leaving the country,
effectively holding them against their will for no good reason. Some individuals after re-signing have not been
issued with their exit permits, denying them their basic right to leave the country. Many sponsors do not allow the
transfer of one employee to another sponsor.
Qatar is a destination for men and women from South Asia and Southeast Asia who migrate willingly but are
subsequently trafficked into involuntary servitude as domestic workers and labourers and, to a lesser extent, into
commercial sexual exploitation. The most common offence is forcing workers to accept worse contract terms
than those under which they were recruited. Other offences include bonded labour, withholding of pay,
restrictions on movement, arbitrary detention, and physical, mental and sexual abuse.
According to the “Trafficking in Persons Report” by the US Department of State, men and women who are lured
into Qatar by promises of high wages are often forced into underpaid labour. The report states that Qatari laws
against forced labour are rarely enforced and that labour laws often result in the detention of victims in deportation
centres, pending the completion of legal proceedings. The report places Qatar at Tier 3, as one of the countries
that neither satisfies the minimum standards nor demonstrates significant efforts to come into compliance.

Order from Chaos?
A
repeat of the disorder and pandemonium generated inside
Afghanistan is in the works for the continent of Africa. The United
States, with the help of Britain, Pakistan and Saudi Arabia, created
the brutal Taliban and then eventually waged war on its Taliban
allies. Similarly, across Africa, the United States and its allies are creating a
new series of future enemies to fight, but after initially working with them or
using them to sow the seeds of chaos in Africa.
Washington has literally been helping fund insurgencies and regime-
change projects in Africa. "Human rights" and "democratisation" are also
being used as a smokescreen for colonialism and war. So-called human
rights and humanitarian organisations are now partners in this imperialist
project directed against Africa.
France and Israel: Is Washington Outsourcing its Dirty Work in Africa?
Africa is just one international front for an expanding system of empire.
The mechanisms of a real global system of empire are at work in this regard.
Washington is acting through NATO and its allies in Africa. Each one of
Washington's allies and satellites has a specific role to play in this global
system of empire.
Tel Aviv has played a very active role on the African continent. Israel was a
major supporter of South Africa under the apartheid regime. Tel Aviv also
helped smuggle arms into Sudan and East Africa to Balkanise that sizeable
African nation while contributing to the destabilisation of East Africa. The
Israelis have been very active in Kenya and Uganda. Israel has been present
wherever there were conflicts, including ones pertaining to blood diamonds.
Israel is now working with Washington to establish total hegemony over
the African continent. Tel Aviv is actively involved—through its business ties
and intelligence operations—in securing the contacts and agreements
required by Washington for the extension of its interests in Africa. One of
Washington's major objectives is to disrupt the development of Chinese
influence in Africa. Israel and Israeli think-tanks have also played a major
role in shaping the US geo-stratagem in Africa.
France, as a former colonial master and a declining power, on the other
hand has traditionally been a rival and competitor of Washington on the
African continent. With the rise of the influence of non-traditional powers in
Africa, such as the People's Republic of China, both Washington and Paris
envisaged ways of cooperating. On the broader global stage, this is also
evident. Both the US and several of the major powers in the European
Union consider China and other emerging global powers as a threat. They
have decided to end their rivalries and work together. Thus, a consensus
between Washington and the EU has unfolded, leading to some forms of
political integration. This consensus also may have been manufactured by

1. More US Soldiers Committed Suicide than Died in Combat
In 2010, for the second year in a row, more US soldiers killed themselves
(468) than died in combat (462). "If you think you know the one thing that
causes people to commit suicide, please let us know," General Peter Chiarelli
told the Army Times, "because we don't know what it is." Suicide is a tragic
but predictable human reaction to being asked to kill—and watch your
friends be killed—for a war based on lies. Perhaps being forced to bag the
mangled flesh of fellow soldiers could be another reason why some are
committing suicide.
Body-bagging: ever heard the term? Soldiers in the Marine Corps'
Mortuary Affairs unit at Camp Al-Taqaddum, Iraq, are given this job of
collecting and cataloguing the bodies of dead Marines. They sift through the
soldiers' remains and put them in body bags which they then place in metal
boxes and, in turn, into refrigerated units. They sort through personal
effects, from lists and prom photos to suicide notes and love letters, parcel
them up and send them back to the Marines' families.
One soldier, Jess Goodell, recounts the case of a Marine brought in to the
unit still breathing. She frantically called to her superiors, to which they
simply replied, "Wait". She watched while he died. When she returned to
the US, Goodell like many others, was diagnosed with deep depression,
substance abuse, post-traumatic stress disorder and anxiety.
2. US Military Manipulates the Social Media
The US military is developing software that will let it secretly manipulate
social media sites by using fake online personas to influence Internet
conversations and spread pro-American propaganda.
A Californian corporation has been awarded a contract with US Central
Command (CENTCOM), which oversees US armed operations in the Middle
East and Central Asia, to develop an "online persona management service"
that will allow one US serviceman or servicewoman to control up to 10
separate identities based all over the world. The CENTCOM contract
stipulates that each fake online persona must have a convincing background,
history and supporting details, and that up to 50 US-based controllers could
operate false identities from their workstations.
The multiple-persona contract is thought to have been awarded as part of a

17. Resistant Superbugs are Spreading Worldwide
Lethal superbugs are emerging that do not respond to
any known drugs. The World Health Organization states
that the New Delhi superbug, also known as NDM-1, was
in India and has now reached a critical point. These
superbugs are resistant to carbapenem antibiotics, which
is a major concern to experts because these are used for
hard-to-treat infections that evade other drugs.
Already, over 25,000 people in Europe die each year
from superbug infections, with many bacteria now
resistant to all drugs. That figure will increase unless
new, more powerful antibiotics are developed.
These bacteria, which have genetic resistance to
antibiotics, have contaminated Delhi's drinking water
supply. This gene spread into bacteria that cause
dysentery and cholera, which can be easily passed from
person to person via sewage-contaminated water.
Scientists are calling for urgent action by health
authorities worldwide to tackle the new strains and
prevent their global spread.
The overuse and misuse of
antibiotics is at unprecedented

development of new drugs
means that we could see
current treatments become

worse by drug companies that

antibiotics because they are

18. Monsanto Targets Haiti
In May 2010, several months
after the 12 January earthquake that destroyed much of
Haiti, the US multinational Monsanto donated 60 tons of
corn and vegetable hybrid seed to the country. The US
International Development Agency (USAID) took charge
of the distribution.
On 4 June 2010, around 10,000 Haitian farmers
demonstrated against Monsanto's donation. "If
Monsanto's seed enters Haiti, farmers' seed will
disappear," said Doudou Pierre Festil, member of the
Peasant Movement of Papaye and coordinator of the
National Haitian Network for Food Sovereignty and
Food Security.
Haitian farmers denounce Monsanto because it
requires them to buy new seed for every sowing season.
Moreover, the organisation Farmers' Route has warned
that the entry of Monsanto's seeds could force the
farmers to depend on the company, which also produces
the fertilisers and herbicides designed to be used with
the seeds.
"The Haitian government is using the earthquake to
sell the country to multinationals," declared Chavannes
Jean-Baptiste, coordinator of the Peasant Movement of
Papaye.
Monsanto is the world's biggest seed company,
controlling 20 per cent of the seed market and 90 per
cent of agricultural biotechnology patents.

old, particularly white gold, has historically held, and continues to
hold, special significance for those committed to spiritual growth.
However, the deepest truth is that it is human milk which is the
most sublimating substance on the planet, as it completes the act
of creation begun in utero and affords the individual the best chance of
obtaining physical and psychological optimisation. As such, it is the white
gold of the alchemist. It is intriguing that the ancient alchemical symbol for
gold, the circumpunct, is a circle with a dot in the centre—a very elegant
representation of a breast!
Milk is a substance that we tend to take for granted. It is a food staple
enjoyed in both savoury as well as sweet forms. Yet humans are the only
mammals that continue to enjoy what milk has to offer past the weaning
stage—and by drinking the milk of other mammals. Why is that so? Apart
from the fact that dairy foods constitute a nutritious and convenient food
choice, the answer most probably lies in the fact that humans are unique
among the primates in that we tend not to lactate for the standard span of
six times the gestation period, i.e., in our case, 54 months. In doing so,
humans seemingly display more reptilian traits when it comes to
reproduction. So we then go through life playing catch-up, craving what we
lacked as an infant because milk provides inner nourishment on both
physical and psychological levels.
Milk is a mythical symbol of immortality that may be found in different
cultural and literary traditions, including those of the Celts, Christians,
Greeks, Hindus and Muslims. The Israelites searched for the Land of Milk
and Honey, while Mohammed is reputed to have said that "to dream of milk
is to dream of learning and knowledge". The Hindu myth on achieving
immortality describes how, for 1,000 years, the Devas and Asuras churned the
Ocean of Milk until the prize elixir (amrita) surfaced. After a struggle, it was
the Devas who prevailed and, after drinking it, they obtained immortality and
ruled the cosmos, thereby consigning the Asuras to rule over the bowels of
the Earth and the depths of the ocean. The offspring of Zeus all needed to be
suckled by Hera in order to obtain immortality. It is said that when Hera was
disturbed when Zeus plotted to have her inadvertently suckle Hercules during
her sleep, her let-down sprayed across the firmament, giving rise to the Milky
Way—our galaxy of stars. The Greek word for milk is gala, and so this legend
and our love affair with milk take on added meaning with the popularisation
of the notion by Dr Carl Sagan that we are all "the stuff of stars"!1
In dream symbology, milk signifies success or the gaining of spiritual
knowledge. Actually, to dream of milk is understood to be a very positive
message from one's unconscious mind. While it may suggest a need for
deep and fundamental nourishment, the inference is that it is available. In
particular, a dream of breast-feeding may be about nourishing the needy
inner child. However, it may also be about offering spiritual inspiration to

others. In this regard, we need to acknowledge that the
breasts sit over the heart chakra, and that human milk is
rich in oxytocin—the hormone of love! On the other
hand, to dream of asking for or drinking milk suggests a
need for spiritual sustenance; and this is, perhaps, what
underpins our continuing love affair with milk.
We spend our lives trying to return to the breast, which
tends not to be offered for very long in the developed
world as women struggle with what I call the Curse of Eve:
the catch-22 situation that perpetuates in developed
cultures as women struggle to balance what they give to
their offspring against what they give to themselves.
Uniqueness of Species-Specific Milk
Mammals are primed to nourish their offspring ex utero
with a substance that is designed in a species-specific
way to complete the cycle of growth and development
that was initially governed by the placenta.
This is how female mammals play a unique and
unequivocal role in providing for the next generation.
Perusal of the chart (figure 1) shows us at a glance that
each mammal's milk is unique unto itself within the
broader confines of being a substance that contains
water, amino acids (protein), carbohydrate (lactose), fat
and minerals (ash).

facilities, proceedings of state

immense reservoir of pertinent

untapped." The task he faced was
daunting: "The anomalies residing in

of such enormous scope. His
catalogues are unique in the annals
of science in that he catalogued not
what is known but what is not known.
"It seems to me that any organised
activity like science would have done
this a long time ago," he said. "It is at
least as important to realise what is
not known as it is to recognise the
well-explained."
Though Corliss has often been
called a modern-day Charles Fort,
their differences are considerable.
Unlike Fort, he avoided using
newspapers as the source of his data
whenever possible, preferring instead
to depend on academically
accredited journals that described
anomalies that were the product of
scientific observation, research and
exploration.
Furthermore, Corliss, unlike Fort,
was not anti-science and he did not
editorialise. He thought that the
data were damning enough on their
own. "In the Catalog of Anomalies,"
he wrote, "the data rule; all theories
and hypotheses are held to be
tentative. The history of science
proves that this is a wise policy."
Corliss saw anomalies as a way to
renew, to reinvigorate, science.
While his first volume of anomalies,
www.nexusmagazine.com
entitled Strange Phenomena, was
actually recommended by both Nature
and Science, quite often the
publication of his catalogues met
with disbelief, even disdain. The
critics claimed that the data must be
in error, that the data are anecdotal
or too old, that a supposed anomaly
was explained long ago. His reply?
"The baseline of well-established
theories, against which
anomalousness is measured, is
always shifting and some data,
indeed, are bad. But for every
anomaly or example that can be
legitimately demolished, ten more
take its place. Nature is very
anomalous or, equivalently, Nature is
not yet well-understood by science."
Such words did not endear him to the
scientific mainstream, which largely
ignored much of his later work. The
late sociologist Marcello Truzzi,
however, called Corliss "an unsung
hero of science".
A Legacy for Humanity
Corliss did not have any illusions
about the impact that The
Sourcebook Project would have on
science. Would it revolutionise
science? "Probably not—at least not
immediately," he wrote.
I was introduced to The Sourcebook
Project in the late 1970s, when I
received my very first published
volume of anomalies from the mail-
order service he operated with his
wife, Virginia. Shortly afterwards, I
met and interviewed Corliss for an
article I was writing on his work for
Science Digest. We kept in touch over
the years, and I would occasionally
send him a news clipping for the
newsletter he published, called
Science Frontiers.

couple of science exhibits for
museums, I began to think that his
work should have a wider audience,

TUBERCULOSIS CONNECTION

A
s the greatest influenza pandemic of all time continued to rage,
other doctors were speaking out. In 1920, with the killing fields of
1918–19 laid out before him, British physician Marcus Paterson took
yet another jab at the "flu" epidemic.28 He wrote: "During the time I
If the microbe that was Resident Medical Officer at Brompton, it was usual to classify a rise of
temperature in an ordinary case of 'chronic' pulmonary tuberculosis as
causes influenza is influenza, even when there was no epidemic."
As for the well-known sick feeling (malaise) and preliminary symptoms of
actually a form of reactivated tuberculosis, Paterson asked: "Are these symptoms any different

they denote not a particular disease, but a toxaemia due to bacterial action."

pointed: "Surely there is no more emphatic testimony to the clinical
such as the one difficulties of a differentiation between the two diseases when one group of

Paterson said what every physician still learns as a resident: "Before the war,

What Paterson left out, as a given, was the hysteria in the family and

differentiate clinically between tuberculosis and influenza. He said that he
Part 2 of 2 "shudders to think" of the number of times that "tubercle bacillus have been
classified as influenza without further investigation". To Paterson, this
represented countless opportunities to cure the real cause, masked under the
designation "influenza". His conclusion: "There is no research required here.
It is a known fact that what is at present called influenza is often tuberculosis.
But the knowledge is not practically applied. It is information of

DECEMBER 2011 – JANUARY 2012
S
ince the 1940s, the US government has quietly engaged one of its key
defence and intelligence agency contractors as a secret UFO "think-
tank". Investigation reveals that the esteemed RAND Corporation is
a think-tank that has given far more than "passing thought" to things
extraterrestrial.
RAND's hidden history of UFO involvement has been discovered to include
work in policy analysis, evaluation of evidence and advice on the potential
technological advantages achieved from UFO study. Telling connections
have also been found between RAND and the 1947 Roswell, New Mexico,
crash event.
What is RAND?
RAND Corporation was established in 1946 by the United States Army Air
Forces as Project RAND (for Research ANd Development) and since 1948 has
been registered as a nonprofit organisation. It is funded through
government contracts, university collaborators and by "private donors".
RAND's primary agency clients include the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA)
and the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA).
Headquartered in Santa Monica, California, the think-tank maintains
branches worldwide. RAND's stated mission is to help to "improve policy
and decision making through objective research and analysis". Its work is
officially conducted "for the public welfare and security of the United States
of America".
Over 30 Nobel Prize winners have been employed by RAND. From physics
to economics, the 2,000-person think-tank provides high-level information
and evaluation to the US government. Deeper review shows that RAND has
conducted studies in such areas as weapons development, intelligence
gathering and analysis and the design of sensitive underground installations
for the US Air Force (USAF).
Far more concealed is RAND's intimate involvement in highly classified
UFO study for the US government:
RAND’s Founders Held the Secret of the Saucers
From its very inception, the men of RAND knew much about saucers.
RAND was conceived by Donald Douglas, Sr, founder and CEO of the
Douglas Aircraft Company (and a protégé of Dr Jerome Hunsaker at
Massachusetts Institute of Technology) along with two military officer
luminaries. These officers carried with them significant "UFO histories". The
officers behind RAND were the then Major General Curtis LeMay (the Deputy
Chief of Air Staff for Research and Development) and General Henry H. "Hap"
Arnold (considered the "father" of the modern US Air Force, which was
established in September 1947). In May 1948, RAND was separated from
Douglas Aircraft and became its own operating entity.

Army Air Field after the Roswell
crash. Games said that Major
General Curtis LeMay was well aware
of Craigie's flight and that LeMay
and Craigie were in close contact
about the event.
In his 1965 biography, Mission with
LeMay, the now retired General
LeMay speaks sparingly about the
UFO subject. Of course, he
discounts that there is a government
cover-up about UFOs. But LeMay
belies this with a brief and telling
statement found later in the
biography: "There is not a question
about it: these were things which we
could not tie in with any natural
phenomena known to our
investigators." As early as 1943, this
fabled airman was investigating
unidentified flying objects.

 THE TRUTH ABOUT HAIR
Reported by Cee Young
I
n the early 1990s, Sally (her name
has been changed to protect her
privacy) was married to a licensed
psychologist who worked at a Virginia
medical hospital. He worked with
combat veterans with post-traumatic
stress disorder. Most of them had
served in Vietnam.
Sally said: "I remember clearly an
evening when he came back to our
apartment on Doctors' Circle carrying
a thick official-looking folder in his
hands. Inside were hundreds of pages
of certain classified studies
commissioned by the government. He
was in shock from the contents.
"What he read in those documents
completely changed his life. From that
moment on, my conservative middle-
of-the-road husband grew his hair and
beard and never cut them again. What
is more, the Virginia medical centre let
him do it, and other very conservative
men on the staff followed his example.
As I read the documents, I learned
why.
"It seems that during the Vietnam

department had sent undercover
experts to comb American Indian
reservations looking for talented
scouts, for tough young men trained to
move stealthily through rough terrain.
They were especially looking for men
with outstanding, almost supernatural,
tracking abilities. Before being
approached, these carefully selected
men were extensively documented as
experts in tracking and survival.
"With the usual enticements, the
well-proven smooth phrases used to
enrol new recruits, some of these
Indian trackers were then enlisted.
Once enlisted, an amazing thing
happened. Whatever talents and skills
they had possessed on the reservation
seemed to disappear mysteriously, as
recruit after recruit failed to perform as
expected in the field.
"Serious casualties and failures of
performance led the government to
contract expensive testing of these
recruits, and this is what was found.
"When questioned about their
failure to perform as expected, the
older recruits replied consistently that
when they received their required

military haircuts, they could no longer
‘sense’ the enemy, they could no
longer access a ‘sixth sense’, their
‘intuition’ no longer was reliable, and
they couldn't ‘read’ subtle signs as
well [as they used to do] or access
subtle extrasensory information.
"So the testing institute recruited
more Indian trackers, let them keep
their long hair and tested them in
multiple areas. Then they would pair
two men together who had received
the same scores on all the tests. They
would let one man in the pair keep his
hair long, and gave the other man a
military haircut. Then the two men
retook the tests.
"Time after time, the man with long
hair kept making high scores. Time
after time, the man with the short hair
failed the tests in which he had
previously scored high scores."

I n their latest collaboration, Graham
Hancock and Robert Bauval trace
the age-old knowledge that has been
the early 20th century of the
infamous and discredited "Protocols
of the Elders of Zion"?
Hancock and Bauval suggest that a
secret religion has shaped the world
through the ages, and with the
French Revolution it was out to
supplant Christianity with a different
Supreme Being notion in harmony
with Freemasonry. But since World
War II, there's been a war between
cultures which see the world through
different eyes. The authors reflect on
the behind-the-scenes machinations
that led to America's support for the
creation of Israel while denying the
rights of the Palestinians living in
that land, and on a different timeline
than that which was envisaged by
vested interests. They lift the veil on
a world that is hidden in plain sight.

soaked Hawaii and her reaction to
bleached corals, she brings her
scientific knowledge to bear on just
how disruptive the chemicals in
sunscreens really are. Many
sunscreens now incorporate
nanoparticle forms of the metallic
zinc oxide and titanium dioxide as
surface screens, yet the particulates
allow for the absorption of even more
UVA rays and also present a real
danger to aquatic creatures by
disrupting the entire local ecology.
It's alarming that rates of various
types of skin cancer are on the rise,
despite education campaigns and the
vastly increased uptake of sunscreen
preparations. The endocrine-
disrupting chemicals that make up
these sunscreens can play havoc with
cell division and cause cancer,
chronic illnesses, autism and other
www.nexusmagazine.com
neurological problems. Not only
that, they can prevent the uptake of
vitamin D, which is essential to our
health and is best absorbed through
sunscreen-free sunlight exposure in
short bursts at the right time of day.
Dr Plourde is to be applauded for
her important book that regards
sunscreens as hazardous waste.
THE BOND
by Lynne McTaggart
Hay House, London, 2011
ISBN 978-1-84850-478-3 (313pp tpb)
Available: www.hayhouse.co.uk
T he competitive, individualistic
mindset that has seeped into soci-
ety since the Age of Enlightenment
and the Scientific and the Industrial
Revolutions is to blame for the crisis
before us now. It's time for us to
adopt a mindset of cooperation and
caring if we're going to survive and
prosper. This is the essence of The
Bond, the new book by paradigm-
changing author Lynne McTaggart
(The Intention Experiment, 14/04; The
Field, 8/05), who has looked into
enough frontier science to know that
"all of life exists in a dynamic rela-
tionship of cooperation".
Despite what some psychologists
would tell us, we are not hardwired
for competitiveness. Our most
fundamental state of being is a drive
for cooperation, partnership and
sharing. McTaggart explains that,
just as with subatomic particles, the
key to life is "the space in between"—
"the inseparable, irreducible Bond"
which connects and unites us all.
Of course, myriad people around
the planet have already made this
connection and adopted an holistic
view and way of life. McTaggart
encourages an expansion of this new
paradigm where we put aside
differences, surrender to wholeness,
relate to each other with kindness on
a deeper level and find the soul of
our community, the neighbourhood
we didn't realise we had. She gives
many inspiring examples of this
awakening being put into action, with
great hope for the future.

f we're going to solve our crises, we
I have to come to terms with who we
are—and this means acknowledging
that science and society have been
operating according to false
assumptions. In Deep Truth, visionary
scientist Gregg Braden (The Divine
Matrix, 14/05) highlights the findings
that could change our perception of
ourselves but are yet to filter into
mainstream consciousness. We're at
a tipping point, where working in
cooperation as a species and
reconnecting with the natural world
will make the difference between a
glorious future and a dark fate. This
tipping point may be imminent, and
we may not have enough time left in
which to integrate these findings into
our way of thinking.
Braden identifies six "deep truths"
that we must act on now. We must
do away with false beliefs about our
origins; change our educational
systems to explore new theories and
discoveries; build partnerships that
can help us adapt and survive as a
species; learn from the ancient
civilisations and their time cycles;
appreciate that humankind reflects a
design put into place at once, rather
than through evolutionary process;
and affirm that we are not "wired" for
war, as the last 5,000 years of our
history largely would suggest.

BIG CATS OF THE AUSTRALIAN
WILDERNESS

URU Publications, Katoomba, 2011
ISBN 978-0-9578716-9-4 (345pp l/f)
Available: www.rexgilroy.com
S tories of big cats having escaped
circuses in the late 19th century or
been released from their mascot
duties after World War II, only to
flourish in the Australian bush, do
not account for the numerous, widely
dispersed sightings of mysterious
felid creatures. Cryptozoology
researcher Rex Gilroy and his wife
Heather have written about these big
cats before (see Mysterious Australia
and NEXUS 2/08, 14/01). Their
territory takes in the vast and rugged
Blue Mountains, New England and
Kangaroo Valley regions of New
South Wales as well as parts of
Queensland and Western Australia.
With decades of field research to
inform them, the Gilroys argue that
the big cats are more than one
species of native marsupial carnivore,
descendants of one that lived at the
end of the last ice age. The most
likely original animal is the Thylacoleo
carnifex oweni, or the marsupial
mountain lion, whose progeny can
have colourations varying from light
brown to black and proportions from
feral cat sized to very large. The so-
called black panthers sighted in the
bush are just one type of marsupial
lion descendant, they believe.
The Gilroys take us on a rollicking
ride through often unforgiving
landscapes, interspersing their text
with historical and recent eyewitness
accounts as well as numerous black
and white photographs. Their
coverage is up to date, proving that
the enigma is still alive and well—
and awaiting more discovery.

Available: Bear & Company,

P lanet Earth is soon to be
transformed, and along with it our
consciousness. While we may have
to endure traumatic changes as the
planet rebalances itself, our spiritual
transition will be gentle, according to
one of Timothy Wyllie's angelic
guides. Wyllie is a writer, artist and
musician who has been tapping into
non-human intelligences—angels,
dolphins, ETs—since the early 1970s
and taking on board and spreading
their messages for humanity.
Wyllie is particularly inspired by the
famous Urantia Book which says that,
200 millennia ago, 37 planets, ours
included, were quarantined to
prevent the spread of the Lucifer
rebellion within the angelic hierarchy.
He considers the effect that this had
on our planet and provides a timely
update: that the quarantine has
been lifted, that the fallen angels
have been forgiven, and that the
Earth and humanity are being
reconnected to our spiritual heritage
within the multiverse.
In his mind-expanding work, The
Return of the Rebel Angels, Wyllie
recounts his tales of out-of-body
travels, reincarnation, healing and
"re-enchanting" the sacred landscape.
He rediscovers ancient oracles and
www.nexusmagazine.com
explains how negative thought-forms
become realised. He enlightens us
on working with nature spirits, the
return of Quetzalcoatl of the Toltecs
and Aztecs, the frequency domains of
the holographic multiverse, and the
pervasiveness of love in the cosmos.
He also presents eight examples of
his amazing artwork as colour plates.
As humans, our "ascension"
potential is our birthright, and Wyllie
proclaims that we're all "doomed to
become perfect". Way to go!

I f ever a text could shed light on the
"Occupy ...." , movement, this is it.
Written by author and broadcaster
Stephen Lendman, MBA, How Wall
Street Fleeces America is a well-
researched study that tells it like it is
on such subjects as the dark legacy of
the Federal Reserve and its titular
heads, how markets are manipulated
and how home-buyers and students
become enslaved in debt bondage.
Lendman delivers a brief history of
how the anti-constitutional, privately
run Federal Reserve was established
in 1913, gives an eye-opening
rundown on government bailouts of
and handouts to corporate bankers
and other corporate favourites, slams
Greenspan and Bernanke's irrational
economic edicts and questions the
wisdom of quantitative easing. He
also shows how class warfare is
threatening US workers' security—a
harsh awakening for those who
trusted the system. The recession
may be over, but a new depression is
only just beginning, with the US in
deep debt crisis and disintegration.
While the reality is that the people
have been duped big time, all is not
yet lost. Lendman bares all on the
Federal Reserve Abolition Act and
promotes workable alternative
systems such as public banking, "an
idea whose time has come".

B ritish author Hazel Courteney is
well credentialled as a health
journalist in print and on cable TV, a
process she began in the early 1980s
when she discovered nutritional
medicine and alternative therapies in
a bid to turn around her own brushes
with chronic illness. A powerful near-
death experience (NDE) in 1998 led
her to explore spiritual, psychic and
paranormal subjects and write Divine
Intervention (2000) and its sequel, The
Evidence for the Sixth Sense (2005).
In her new "spiritual science" book,
Countdown to Coherence, Courteney
passes on the benefit of knowledge
that she accessed from scientists,
shamans and seers in her quest to
make sense of her NDE and try to
reconnect with the profound cosmic
link that it kindled in her for a time.
Among the mentors on her journey
are physicist Prof. William Tiller,
scientist/parapsychologist Dr Serena
Roney-Dougal, psychologist/NDE
researcher Prof. Gary Schwartz,
retired physicist/orbs investigator Dr
Klaus Heinemann, shaman/medical
anthropologist Dr Alberto Villoldo,
and Falco, the visionary founder of
the Damanhur spiritual community in
Italy. Courteney also refers to the
findings of many other frontier
researchers. Key to her discoveries is
that we need to find a path towards

Available: www.authorhouse.com
T he Kahuna system of knowledge
would have to be the most
brilliantly simple, workable and
powerful system there is. So I was
delighted to find that Kahuna magic
from the Hawaiians (with Egyptian
aspects), as investigated by the
pioneering anthropologist/linguist/
psychic researcher Max Freedom
Long for decades from 1917, has
been explored anew. Philosopher
and writer Joe Potts was so inspired
by discovering this knowledge that he
became a healer, one with a vital
message for humanity. The Kahuna
science is as applicable for us now as
it was when it guided the lives of
indigenous people exclusively.
The Kahuna Kit is designed as a
workshop, with practical physical and
mental exercises to explore and apply
based on the key elements: that we
have three souls, three soul bodies
and three variant vital-force energies
plus a human body to house it all—
10 in total. The totality encompasses
the unconscious mind or Low Self,
the conscious mind or Middle Self,
and the superconscious mind or High
Self—the Aumakua, God Within—
which in turn links up with the Great
Company of High Selves. Accessing
and working with these aspects of
Self requires discipline and ethical
awareness, and Potts, with
unconventional good humour,
provides golden nuggets to nudge us
on our path. His book should also
inspire readers to look into Long's
outstanding body of work.

THE FORCE THE THEORIES AND 'THY SELF'

I
A contribution of thought dedicated to Duncan M. Roads—a special friend of the Earth.
By Gunther K. H Pfrengle
f one were to ask what is a human being? One possible answer could be a passenger on the primary end product, a complex life
sustaining planet in a solar system developed by a Creative Order. This traveler is a secondary final creation, a culmination from
a microbial to a biological cell and cell chain progression over time, to the point where a creature evolved able to rise—to the prime
question who am I? Followed by wise man’s century old advice, get to know, thy-self. That is awake, use all your senses and
experience yourself-but above all dwell into your inner ‘self’, to evaluate the results of the progressive interwoven causality within
the same, from the first remembrance to the last days to understand this, ‘thy-self’. Is this simply advice to guide and heal one self
if one recognizes the need for it? For, a physician may not heal a patient if he does not identify the illness. Or is it to fit this ‘self’
into one of the many communities with all their different rules and regulations, (and believe) self conscientious instructed or
solitary and free through (thy) self conscious evaluation? Is it to know and confirm ones ‘self’ and that this ‘self” you, as a sane
human being, is responsible to steer this ‘self’ you, your ‘self’ and the body it dwells in, across the ‘treacherous oceans’ in order to
transfer this ‘self’ to some place very special that is, one’s ‘self’ into an other dimension, the spirit world, God’s domain? For ‘He’
said God is a spirit. Following the event of this, the ‘prime question’, these ‘selves’ at some point in time, are ready to take over
from this evolutionary summit of this secondary creation (by the Creative Order) to either explore, understand, employ and enjoy
the purpose of their being, if they except knowledge of the full truth and act up on it or ignorantly use this freedom, this power to
unleash their own third stage ‘creative order’ in their common predatory fashion, leading to their doom. A question lingers are we
taking enough care to get to know the total forces (good and evil) within our combined ‘selves’. Understand the reason for the
creation of this ‘self’ thy-self ,our ‘selves’ hence the contribution this ‘self’, your ‘being’ is bound to, in order to guard the primary

B
and the secondary gift of the ‘Creative Order’ which is for our ‘selves ‘(us).
GOD THE UNIVERSE AND THE ‘SELF’.
y current scientific standards, the question is warranted, where is God to be found after the Big Crunch? And how, if ‘He’ as
Spirit does not survive, how is everything reinstated anew after the Big Bang, by what force-the ‘Creative Order’, as system
embedded within primeval mass (energy)? Like an equal to a genetic code helix-perhaps arising from within a lower dimension
(U-2)? (See www.agspri.com.au). Stephen Hawking and some fellow scientist’s offer a way to a solution, by proposing the
existence of a multitude of adjoining bubble encased universes. God could be dwelling in them and ruling them and our Universe
(U) when it is ready again. But if there is only one Universe, how is God to evolve out of such a Big Bang beginning from the size
of a proton to the present state? This is one of the problems for which God’s poem (see agspri.com.au) could provide
enlightenment. The poem materialized between guidelines, intuition and a search within, one’s ‘self’. One has to expand the self
in to its constituents to clarify it. This may seem odd! The body found its current perfection in the course of time in the secondary
stage directed by the ‘Creative Order’, to be reinstated over and over again, through time, by pairs of beings who imprint their
genetic inheritance on that body. But it is also their combined inner ‘self’ (the heart the strength of their souls) their souls, which
provide a part of that ‘self’- that new being. Properly instructed (programmed) by righteous parenting this will influence the mind,
the ‘self’s’ body control and equalizer (arbitrator) module between body and soul. The body would be instructed to act, principally,
as according to the inherited dominants but the same may be altered by and within the ‘one self-being’. Thus, the spirit (the
embryo spirit) grows or fades through the acts of the threesome combinations causal inner adjustments. Every act that breaches the
peace formulas; Treat your neighbor as you want him to treat you or as the Son said, 'love God with all your heart, soul, mind and
strength and love your neighbor as yourself'. On this base of love, any negative act will cause a demise in the development of your
spirit, the extension of the soul, the pass to God, the quintessence for—and of God. Abuse the growth of that spirit long and hard
enough and it may not be strong enough to fulfill its designed destiny. If you are sensitive and thoughtful enough you can actually
feel the damage you cause onto your ‘self’ with every bad deed (Refer to Socrates). In doubt? Consider the opposite. Why then do
most people feel a happy elation when they do a good deed, to a total stranger? That’s why the Teacher, who is said to be without
sin, as an example for us spoke about the injured pilgrim lying by the side of the road. All this concerns, in a sense, the three ‘W’
questions (where do we come from, why are we here, where are we going?) the basics of timeless sophisticated philosophy to seek
answers to our purpose. By examining our inner ‘selves’, we experience Him thereby His existence, our selves and why we

I
evolved. Within this frame we may achieve self guidance in truth, hence more respect for each other.
End Note.
n all predictions of scientific thinking and in all advances there has to be a consideration for the Creator. After all we are using
‘His’ building blocks and science which allowed us to emerge. Therefore in this respect we have only three options to come to
terms with God and the Universe. For the ‘Big Bang’ theory, if there is no retreat into a lower dimension, there has to be a total
recreation and that would have to include God (see God’s poem). If that is not acceptable the multitude universe proposal (each
bubble encased or string M-theory membrane divided) would be the best alternative. That leaves the disbanded ‘Steady State
Universe’ as the third possibility and only the last two systems permit a rational understanding of true eternity concerning the
spirit—the Holy Spirit. While time goes by, an inquisitive schoolboy would be smashing a grain of sand until the grain range
reaches the limit of his microscope, a wise scientist may listen to the sounds categorize them mathematically compare and
understand.

25. DU Planned for Libya?
President Obama's undeclared and
congressionally unauthorised war
against Libya may be compounded
by the crime of spreading toxic
uranium oxide in populated areas of
that country.
Concern is being voiced by groups,
such as the International Coalition
to Ban Uranium Weapons, which
monitor the military use of so-called
depleted-uranium (DU) anti-tank
DECEMBER 2011 – JANUARY 2012
and bunker-penetrating shells.
As of late March 2011, the US has
not introduced its A-10
Thunderbolts, known also as
Warthogs, into the Libyan campaign,
probably because these subsonic
straight-wing craft, while heavily
armoured, are vulnerable to
shoulder-fired anti-aircraft missiles
which Libyan forces are known to
possess in large numbers.
Once the air-control situation is
improved by continued
bombardment, however, these
specialised ground-attack aircraft
will probably be added to the forces.
The A-10 has a particularly large
automatic cannon which fires an
unusually large 30-mm shell. These
shells are often fitted with solid
uranium projectiles.
A-10s were heavily used in the
Balkans conflict, and Kosovo officials
were dismayed to learn that 11 tons
of uranium weapons had been fired
www.nexusmagazine.com
there, leaving dangerous uranium
dust fallout in their wake.
The US military is fond of DU
weapons because the material, made
from uranium from which the
fissionable U-235 has been removed,
is extremely heavy and, in alloy form,
is also extremely hard.
Because of DU's mass, projectiles
made from the material can
penetrate even the heaviest armour.
Then, in the heat caused by the
collision with an object, the uranium
bursts into flame at extreme heat,
causing an explosive (and toxic)
inferno inside a tank or other
vehicle.
Soldiers inside a target vehicle are
incinerated. The problem is that the
resulting uranium oxide produced by
such explosions, besides being
highly toxic, is a microscopic alpha-
emitter, which if inhaled or ingested
by humans is extremely carcinogenic
and mutagenic. ∞

CONTACT:
Countdown to
Transformation
by Steven M. Greer, MD
his book goes far beyond the usual accounting of objects seen in the
T sky and takes the reader into a universe of higher states of
consciousness, remote viewing and direct Contact with civilizations that
interface with thought and awareness as easily as we talk on cell phones.
Journey with the CSETI team as they go beyond the veil of light and the
resonant frequency of matter and enter into close contact with
numerous ET civilizations who eagerly await the coming Transformation
on Earth. The accompanying DVD shows the images, sights and sounds
of Contact, as it has evolved over the past 17 years. You will learn how
this Contact has been made - and how you, too, can become an
Ambassador to the Universe!
A Must Read!!

by Steven M. Greer MD
rom his sighting of a UFO at an early age, to his amazing near-
Frunning
death experience at age 17, to his unraveling of the secret cabal
the illegal transnational energy and UFO – related pro-
jects, to his meetings with a CIA Director, US Senators, heads of
state and royalty – you will be moved, shocked and enlightened as
you read through this memoir. Journey with Dr Greer as he takes
you into the corridors of secret power – beyond the government
as we know it- to a shadowy cabal of power-mad controllers, and
their hidden agenda.

 The Hidden Cause of Cancer and Autoimmune Diseases
Continued from page 46
may eliminate tumours without
causing much inflammation, and also
help to clean the blood.
Many antimicrobial remedies and
devices have been used, for which
there is widespread anecdotal and
often research evidence of efficacy.
Most of these have strong antifungal
properties and tend to work without
generating strong inflammations. It
appears that they mainly clean the
blood. Without the presence of
pleomorphic microbes, tumours just
seem to fade away.
Some well-known examples of
antimicrobial remedies are olive leaf
extract, pau d'arco extract, non-
acidified sodium chlorite, kerosene,
Lugol's iodine solution, ozone and
hydrogen peroxide if used
intravenously, the electronic zapper
and various electronic devices such
as the Rife Frequency Generator
which radiate specific frequencies to
destroy pleomorphic microbes. Jim
Humble claims success with his
intensive MMS therapy
(http://humblemiraclemineral.com/),
but this is difficult to evaluate
because of severe harassment and
suppression by the US FDA.
Minocycline and doxycycline are
conventional antibiotics that work for
CWD bacteria and have been
successful against various
autoimmune diseases when used in
very low doses over long periods.
However, one must be careful to add
antifungal remedies and probiotics.
My preference is to combine a high-
quality diet with periodic raw-food
cleansing, alkalising the body and
using moderate amounts long-term
of periodically changing antimicrobial
remedies and devices. I also like
vitalising the blood by exposing the
veins under the arms and inside the
legs to sunlight. My advice is to
continue these efforts until the blood
appears to be clean and/or tumours
have disappeared or apparently have
become dormant. (See my Overcoming
Cancer web page at
http://tinyurl.com/3o3xrfn.) The same
approach is also suitable for
autoimmune diseases and other
degenerative conditions.
Conventional medicine cannot
explain adequately how tumours kill
patients. The available evidence
leads me to conclude that tumours
are more or less harmless, and that it
is mainly the blood contamination
with pleomorphic microbes which is
the real killer in cancer, AIDS and
various other diseases. ∞

work, called What Science Doesn't
Know. I can't imagine anything more
stimulating to the minds of young
people than to discover areas of
science that are up for grabs, puzzling
topics that they could explore, wide-
open fields of research where they
could make a difference—instead of
being presented with science as a
closed book of knowledge, as at most
science museums.
The work of William Corliss is an
inspiration, a wonder-filled refutation

Veteran plasma physicist John Brandenburg reveals the new

theory that finally accomplishes what Einstein failed to do:
the GEM Unification Theory proves the mathematical and
physical interrelation of the forces of gravity and
electromagnetism! He also traces the surprising, hidden
influence of Nikola Tesla on Einstein’s life. Brandenburg
describes control of space-time geometry through
electromagnetism, and states that faster-than-light travel will
be possible in the future.

chapters on the Adams Motor, the Hans Coler Generator,
cold fusion, superconductors, N-machines, space-energy
generators, Nikola Tesla, T. Townsend Brown, and the
latest in free-energy devices. Packed with photos,
technical diagrams, patents and fascinating information,
this book belongs on every science shelf.
