That’s scary. At least it’ll focus some minds and resources US side and will hopefully help with figuring this vague mystery out. Both to detect and perhaps even counter
Uhmm, I heard the Cuban mystery was already resolved pretty conclusively: it was overuse of anti-mosquito fumigation, that US embassy was especially overtreated themselves with.
Quite possible the same stuff is being used around the whitehouse if this is some standard government used pesticide. But we will have to wait and see.
See, that's the problem, it's always "what we hear."
We trust everything published as matter of fact. Why do we do this? We indirectly become echoes and pawns of whatever is strung around us. We shouldn't say something is factual based on reporting as if it were equivalent to events witnessed.
How do we overcome this discrepancy as a species? It seems like a huge bug.
> Most of those affected, as well as many officials and experts, believed they were attacked by a foreign power with some form of microwave energy device. But they fought an uphill struggle, before the National Academy of Sciences study in December, convincing their employers that their brain injuries were the result of an attack while they were on assignment.
Has this study been publicly released? What were the injuries precisely?
If this is the result of some kind of weapon, I just can't believe it's a foreign government. You couldn't find a more stupid, risky place to test such a machine than yards away from the actual White House - surely not even North Korea is that foolhardy
On the contrary, if you are confident that the device (assuming that is what this is) is untraceable and effects take time to develop, it's a slap in the face to the US to use it so close to the nerve center.
