 Many of these vets believe they got sick due to some exposure they experienced while on military duty, or perhaps to a vaccination they had to have for their military service. Although there is little evidence to support their beliefs, I don't tell them they are wrong, because we may never really know what triggered their illness. Being dismissive of a vet's deeply held conviction before our discussion has really gotten under way is less important than listening and setting up the groundwork for real two-way communication. |

 The storyline is simple: A career military desk jockey of average intelligence is cocooned in an experimental hibernation machine for 500 years. (By accident, of course. It's the military we're talking about here.) When he awakens, he finds himself in a world populated and run by complete idiots -- the result of 500 years of reverse natural selection, where the stupid people fornicate the most, and the smart people stop having children. (Sound familiar, anyone?) The result of it all? |

 While a lot of this is theoretical, the future is not as far away as you might think, in fact, it is the demand for military robots that is driving this industry to produce usable humanoid robots faster than you might expect. Remember, it was really a military push that motivated NASA to land a man on the moon. It was national security that set off the space race, not some innocent interest in science. Likewise, it will be the military power interests that will inevitably promote more advances in robotics technology. |

 REPPED: Separate studies on two continents have concluded smoking is associated with decreased productivity on the job, both in the civilian and military sectors. The studies were published in the April 2007 issue of the journal Tobacco Control.
"In both the civilian and military sectors, smoking has been linked to disability and job-related outcomes, including decreased productivity, increased absenteeism, and long and more frequent work breaks," reported Terry L. Conway, Ph.D. and colleagues at San Diego State University Graduate School of Public Health. |

 That's right, while I was doing my time, I and other inmates would actually spend our days eating the best food and enjoying ourselves at a U.S. military base officer's club. Can you imagine convicts having complete access to a U.S. military installation? Can you imagine that convicts would be eating the finest food in a club generally restricted to U.S. military officers? (The society needed me to go to prison for a very specific mission.)
The government denies all of this. The government denies Area 51 exists. Yet everyone can see it with their own two eyes. |

 It has been studied for a century or more, and at one point in our history was even developed and taught as a reproducible ability that could be utilized to gather military intelligence in the Remote Viewers Stargate program. Do not think for one moment that the military would have studied this if they could not produce credible data about its use with precision and clarity.
Yet, whenever you talk about ESP or strange feats of the mind someone always trots out the Amazing Randi, whose sole talent seems to be unrelenting skepticism to the point of virtual blindness. |

 This man's father, a colonel in the army, had raised him under the strictest military expectations for performance in the face of adversity. His history made it clear that the focus of our work was to find and dismantle the distortions in his thought that compelled him to sacrifice his own essential need for rest.
For three sessions, we used hypnosis to uncover and release some of the difficult early life experiences that fueled this man's anxiety. I also taught him the cognitive reprogramming approach I describe in this chapter, which he used (not surprisingly) with military consistency. |

| Department of Defense because, historically, the military has had higher and heavier rates of tobacco use than civilians," wrote the researchers. The Pentagon health survey found, among members of the U.S. military, smoking increased from 30% in 1988 to 34% in 2002 -- the first recorded rise since 1980.
Among the U.S. population in general, smoking has steadily decreased since 1965. In 1965, 42.4% of American adults were smokers, compared to 20.9% in 2004. This decline began after the Surgeon General's first report on the dangers of smoking in 1964. |

 The former Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR) assigned the Soviet Academy of Science to develop a product that increased the performance of their elite personnel, which included athletes, military personnel, political officers, and chess players, while adhering to strict health guidelines. The Soviets' pursuit of superior military strength, performance in the Olympic
Games, political power, and the excellence of the well-known Bolshoi ballet mattered so much to them that whatever they could do to accomplish the goal of dominance was pursued. |

 It goes hand in hand with the fervor surrounding fear-based propaganda typically orchestrated by a national leader in response to some sort of military attack. In Germany, it was the Reichstag. In the U.S., it's 9/11. Regardless of the justification for military action, the apparent military goal seems to be little more than control of resources, which once again likens us to cavemen in my earlier example. Except in this case, we don't have to look at the faces of those we kill because it is all censored out of the press. |

 About 10 percent of military personnel will suffer noise-induced hearing loss, even though they use hearing protection," says Brenda Lonsbury-Martin, director of science and research for the American Speech-Language-
Hearing Association. So on what better group of folks to test a "hearing pill"?
You heard me (no pun intended). In 2004, the country's first clinical trial began at a California military base to test a compound that just might prevent noise-induced hearing loss. They're calling it the Hearing Pill. |

 While leptin is managing the peacetime energetic function of the human body, it does so while wearing a military uniform. In reality, new science is showing that the immune system is far more than just the military. It coordinates the entire communication and repair system of the human body.
The first phase of almost any military campaign is highly inflammatory. Leptin uses an immune signal called TNFa to carry out its inflammatory orders as well as many routine communications. |

 In the end, however, the German military did not so much tun out of ammunition as it ran out of food.
After the war, other countries adopted Germany's remarkable new way of producing nitrates. The Allies immediarely recognized the strategic value of the Haber-Bosch process; the Treaty of Versailles compelled BASF to license an ammonia plant in France. |
| When Moses and company arrived, Canaan was a collection of city-states subjugated by Egyptian military superiority. Heavily fortified Canaanite cities controlled the agricultural lowlands. Undeterred, the new arrivals farmed the vacant uplands. "But the mountain-country shall be yours. Although it is wooded, you shall cut it down, and its farthest extent shall be yours" (Joshua 17:18). Settling in small villages, they cleared the forests and farmed terraced slopes in the hill country to gain a foothold in the Promised Land. |
| Before then only the wealthy and the military had access to metal tools. More abundant and cheaper than bronze, iron was hard, durable, and readily formed to fit over wood. Farmers began fitting plows and spades with iron blades to carve through topsoil and down into denser subsoil. Most of Italy remained forested around 300 bc, but new metal tools allowed extensive deforestation over the next several centuries.
When Romulus founded Rome in about 750 bc, he divided up the new state into two-acre parcels, a size his followers could cultivate themselves. |
| After the Second World War, conversion of military assembly lines to civilian uses dramatically increased tractor producrion, completing the mechanization of American farms and paving the way for high-output industrial farming in developed countries. Several million tractors were working American fields by the 1950s—ten times as many as in the 1920s. The number of U.S. farmers plummeted as farm acreage increased and more people moved to the swelling cities. The few farmers left on their land grew cash crops to pay off the loans on their new labor-saving equipment. |
| Carthage was an agricultural powerhouse capable of becoming a military rival. In perhaps the earliest known political stunt, Cato brought plump figs grown in Carthage onto the Senate floor to emphasize his view that "Carthage must be destroyed." Ending all his speeches, no matter what the subject, with this slogan, Cato's agitating helped trigger the Third Punic War (149-146 bc) in which Carthage was torched, her inhabitants slaughtered, and her fields put to work feeding Rome. |

 Olympic athletes, poets, scholars, and military heroes received wreaths of bay to place on their heads. Roman senators wore bay chaplets on their heads (though perhaps this was to cover their bald spots). To this day we still use the term baccalaureate, "laurel berries," to signify the completion of a bachelor's degree. We also bestow the term laureate upon a poet as a term of honor and respect for his or her work.
Bay leaf repels cockroaches, fleas, moths, and other bugs. |

 Dave invited a number of people, including me, to attend a July 4 fireworks display at a nearby military base. I had wondered whether he might find the sound of fireworks reminiscent of his battlefield experiences, and my concern was justified. Dave became unnerved and anxious by the loud explosionlike sounds and the flashing lights of the fireworks. His breathing became labored, and he was a little shaken by the experience, but he was still able to drive us home. Dave had suffered an anxiety attack.
Panic attacks are far more overwhelming than what Dave had experienced. |

The first phase of almost any military campaign is highly inflammatory. Leptin uses an immune signal called TNFa to carry out its inflammatory orders as well as many routine communications. TNFa stands for Tumor Necrosis Factor alpha, a name given to it because it will wipe out tumors if given the opportunity to do so. Like adrenaline, TNFa is an irritant that must have "oil" in order to function normally. |

So what does it take to stop cruelty against fellow human beings? First, it requires teaching compassion. |

 During World Wars I and II, physical exams were used to assess the fitness of military recruits (these exams showed a "disconcertingly high percentage of physical defects among supposedly healthy young men"12) and were required annually for all officers of the army and navy.
The practice became common and expedient.13
In 2000, complete physical examinations accounted for about 64 million visits out of 823 million visits overall. |

 Along with children, who are helpless against the vaccination assault, soldiers have also been a target of mass immunization. military troops have to submit to all manner of vaccinations in the name of readiness for warfare. The servicemen and women endure endless injections designed to "protect" them against bio-toxins like smallpox, anthrax, ricin and others.
Several soldiers have died from the often untested chemicals in the vaccines, and others have been severely sickened by the practice. |

 Not too long ago, here in the United States, President Bush signed an executive order stating that health authorities and military personnel can quarantine individuals who they suspect are infected with bird flu.
Quarantine is an interesting concept. If one individual or one group of people is infected with bird flu, they obviously need to be quarantined for the good of everyone else in the community. What if there's an outbreak in a town? Would the US military quarantine that entire town? Probably, yes. What if there was an outbreak in a school? Could they quarantine that entire school? |

 For example, about 63 percent of Americans are unknowingly consuming more sugar-infused foods at restaurants, fast-food places, colleges, military bases, rest homes, and even hospitals that are supposed to make you well but feed you sugary junk instead."
Furthermore, Americans are taking in added sugars not only from obvious foods such as candy, soda, cakes, and cookies, but from packaged, frozen, and canned foods, including cereals, crackers, yogurt, salad dressings, bagels, and peanut butter. |

 Cofactors are the military support system, like the mechanics or supply officers, fuel tanks, and makers of the ammunition. These are primarily the B cofactors: folic acid, vitamins Bl, B2, B6, and B12. We need a good store of both the antioxidant minerals and cofactors if we are going to have any hope of winning the war within.
The battleground is actually more complicated than I have just described. You see, the number of free radicals we produce is never constant. |

 None of this is feasible, of course, if these northern countries decline to take in all these extra refugees - and James Lovelock has even suggested a scenario where China invades Siberia and the US invades Canada to seize the remaining habitable land by military force. Any armed conflict, particularly involving the widespread use of nuclear weapons, would of course have the by-product of further increasing the planetary surface area considered uninhabitable for humans. |
