THEY HAVE PLANS TO BUILD A $400 MILLION
MOCK CITY OUT IN THE DESERT.
It will be complete with an airport, subway, and
skyscrapers. No one will
live there.
It will be used to train our troops in determining if a germ
warfare
attack has taken place, and if so, how to then go in and decontaminate the
city.
In August of 1996 I was privileged to join a group of doctors
and researchers
with Doctors for Disaster Preparedness (DDP) on a tour of the U.S. Army's
Dugway Proving Grounds Biological Warfare Unit in the Utah desert, about an
hour and a half southwest of Salt Lake City. DDP is a private organization
which advocates civil defense. Its luminaries include Dr. Edward Teller, the
inventor of the hydrogen bomb, and Dr. Martin Kamin, the discoverer of
carbon-14.
Dugway is a highly restricted facility. Years earlier, when
the person who
arranged the tour was in the Navy, he stopped to take pictures of Dugway from
the road. He was immediately surrounded by flashing blue lights. He was taken
at gunpoint into the compound, his film and camera were taken from him, and
he was grilled for two hours as to why he was taking pictures
of Dugway. Fortunately, he is now on much better terms with the base
commander.
And, as the cover story of the June, 1997 issue of Popular Mechanics
points
out, when the magazine staff asked if they could send a plane over Dugway to
take pictures for the article, they were told that if they did, the plane
would be shot down.
What they told us there---more than a year before the media
started talking
about Saddam Hussein's germ warfare capabilities---raised the hairs on the
back of my neck. What they didn't tell us startled me even more---NOTHING was
said about any preparations to enable the civilian population to protect
itself. And even now, after the World Trade Center and Pentagon attacks, the
government still has not taken the most important step to deter, or minimize
the damage from, a germ warfare attack.
As a pharmacist and an attorney, I endeavored to put together the materials
on what people can do legally to protect themselves against a germ warfare
attack. Very few people listened to me in '96. More are listening to me now.
My book is entitled, "LESSONS FROM DUGWAY: What I Learned
About Surviving
Germ Warfare At The U.S. Army Proving Grounds". It is 58 pages in 8 &
1/2 by
11" format, 12 point (standard) type. I will tell you dozens of simple,
inexpensive steps to take to drastically improve the odds of survival for you
and your family. I will tell you how to buy antibiotics legally and
inexpensively without a prescription at stores in your own
neighborhood, and will explain the uses and dosages of
them (including doses for children and infants), as well as the side effects
and the most effective way to take them. You will learn all about the
diseases that the researchers at Dugway are most concerned about, how they
might be spread, how to recognize the symptoms of them, when to expect
symptoms to develop, how to prevent and treat these diseases, and how to
decontaminate your living areas. You will also learn what steps can cause a
false sense of security, which could prove to be fatal, and the circumstances
under which you should not even take aspirin.
You will learn how to look for signs that an attack has taken place even
before there is a public announcement about it. You will learn what
absolutely has to be done before symptoms begin in order to survive certain
forms of germ warfare, even if you do have the right antibiotics in hand. One
section also discusses how to protect yourself in the event of a nuclear
catastrophe, and what simple thing a terrorist could do even without an
ordinary nuclear bomb to create such an event. I also discuss poisoning of
the water with botulinum toxin (botulism).
LESSONS FROM DUGWAY is written for the layman, but it contains
much
information which members of the medical community could find useful as a
handy reference guide in an emergency of this nature. It also contains a
section for farmers and ranchers regarding how to protect their businesses
from what may happen if America's agricultural economy, rather than a city,
becomes a target, which may well prove to be the case.
With this in mind, I hope that this book proves to be a useful source of
information to you. And God bless you and the United States of America.
