FTR #1128 Bio-Psy-Op Apocalypse Now, Part 4: The Apartheid Virus?

This pro­gram explores an inter­roga­to­ry con­sid­er­a­tion, borne out of crit­i­cal eval­u­a­tion of epi­demi­o­log­i­cal infor­ma­tion about Covid-19 in New York City.

The recent dis­clo­sure that ran­dom test­ing of res­i­dents of New York City indi­cat­ed that rough­ly one fifth of that munic­i­pal­i­ty’s res­i­dents may have had Covid-19 and recov­ered rais­es seri­ous epi­demi­o­log­i­cal impli­ca­tions. If the report is remote­ly accu­rate, it is epi­demi­o­log­i­cal­ly absurd to sup­pose the virus orig­i­nat­ed in Chi­na.

(The 1984 inter­view with Dr. Wilbert Jor­dan about the anom­alous epi­demi­o­log­i­cal infor­ma­tion about the spread of AIDS, reprised in FTR #1115, should be reviewed for depth and back­ground to this dis­cus­sion.)

In addi­tion, we spec­u­lat­ed in FTR #1127 that New York City MAY have been delib­er­ate­ly vec­tored with the virus. The report cit­ed above makes lit­tle sense if that were not the case. 

In this dis­cus­sion, we col­late a num­ber of items from past pro­grams, con­sid­er­ing the pos­si­bil­i­ty that some of the ele­ments we dis­cuss MIGHT have fig­ured in a hypo­thet­i­cal vec­tor­ing of New York City:

1.–We note in that regard that New York City was delib­er­ate­ly tar­get­ed for test­ing of bio­log­i­cal war­fare agents in the mid-1960’s. ” . . . . In the sum­mer of 1965, Spe­cial Oper­a­tions men walked into three New York City sub­way sta­tions and tossed light­bulbs filled with Bacil­lus sub­tilis, a benign bac­te­ria, onto the tracks. The sub­way trains pushed the germs through the entire sys­tem and the­o­ret­i­cal­ly killed over a mil­lion pas­sen­gers. . . .”
2.–For con­sid­er­a­tion in this con­text is the doc­u­ment­ed record of the use of Nazis, fas­cists and white suprema­cists in the Amer­i­can bio­log­i­cal war­fare devel­op­ment over the decades–not all of it in the after­math of World War II and Project Paper­clip.
3.–We review infor­ma­tion about Dr. Lar­ry Ford, an acolyte of “The Turn­er Diaries,” who had worked for the CIA assist­ing the apartheid regime’s Project Coast bio­log­i­cal war­fare pro­gram. Ford was inves­ti­gat­ed for pos­si­ble involve­ment with the milieu behind the anthrax attacks after 9/11. ” . . . . he had held extreme racist views and had once told a girl­friend that to under­stand him, she should read ‘The Turn­er Diaries,’ the anti-Semit­ic and white suprema­cist nov­el, pop­u­lar among far-right groups, that pros­e­cu­tors say inspired the Okla­homa City bomb­ing . . . .”
4.–Ford oper­at­ed in con­junc­tion with Project Coast under the aus­pices of CIA: ” . . . . But ten min­utes lat­er the liai­son called again and said there was ‘high con­fi­dence’ that Ford had bio­log­i­cal- and chem­i­cal-weapons knowl­edge and did, in fact, have the capa­bil­i­ty to coat the knife with a dead­ly tox­in. Short­ly after that a third call came in: Ford did work for the CIA, the chas­tened FBI offi­cial told the room full of cops. . . .”
5.– An Air Force Acad­e­my report on Project Coast dis­cussed an inter­na­tion­al right-wing net­work that  grew out of the South African bio-weapons pro­gram: ” . . . . Accord­ing to a recent U.S. Air Force Acad­e­my report on South Africa’s bio­log­i­cal war­fare pro­gram, Ford was part of a glob­al net­work of sci­en­tists that Bas­son assem­bled to assist Project Coast. Whether that meant cre­at­ing — or receiv­ing and stor­ing — tox­ins pro­duced by the pro­gram is a mat­ter of con­jec­ture, the report sug­gests, as South African offi­cials have been unable to account for all of the dan­ger­ous mate­r­i­al pro­duced over the years. The Air Force report quotes tes­ti­mo­ny from a Swiss intel­li­gence agent [Juer­gen Jacomet?] who laun­dered mon­ey for Bas­son and who describes a world­wide con­spir­a­cy involv­ing unnamed Amer­i­cans. ‘The death of Dr. Ford and rev­e­la­tions of his South African involve­ment,’ the report states, ‘[rais­es] the pos­si­bil­i­ty of a right-wing inter­na­tion­al net­work, [still] unit­ed by a vision of South Africa once again ruled by whites.’ . . . .”
6.–Steven Hatfill–another long­time, intel­li­gence-con­nect­ed bio­log­i­cal war­fare expert–has worked with white suprema­cists in both the for­mer Rhode­sia (now Zim­bab­we) and South Africa. He, too, was inves­ti­gat­ed in con­nec­tion with the anthrax attacks.
7.–About Hat­fil­l’s CV: ” . . . . Here is a fel­low [Hat­fill] with a fake Ph.D. who posed for The Wash­ing­ton Times as a bioter­ror­ist with a home­made plague dis­sem­i­na­tor, and who boast­ed as recent­ly as last year of hav­ing served with the apartheid gov­ern­men­t’s noto­ri­ous Selous Scouts dur­ing the Rhode­sian anthrax epi­dem­ic. I have three dif­fer­ent edi­tions of his cur­ricu­lum vitae . . . How did such a ras­cal come to be instruct­ing the C.I.A., F.B.I., Defense Intel­li­gence Agency, army, navy, Marines, U.S. mar­shals, and State Depart­ment on such mat­ters as the han­dling of dead­ly pathogens and of bioter­ror inci­dents ? . . .”
8.–About the inves­ti­ga­tion into Hat­fill in con­nec­tion with the 2001 anthrax attacks and his asso­ci­a­tion with the Afrikan­er Resis­tance Move­ment (AWB): ” . . . . The FBI’s inves­ti­ga­tion [of the anthrax attacks] this time focused on Dr. Steven J. Hat­fill, who once worked as a research sci­en­tist at the U.S. Army Med­ical Research Insti­tute of Infec­tious Dis­ease at Fort Det­rick, Mary­land. Hat­fill had spent con­sid­er­able time in South Africa, and was affil­i­at­ed with the Afrikan­er Resis­tance Move­ment (AWB). How­ev­er, after a thor­ough inves­ti­ga­tion, the FBI even­tu­al­ly cleared Hat­fill of any con­nec­tion to the anthrax attacks. . . .”
9.–Of sig­nif­i­cant inter­est in that regard is Hat­fil­l’s close pro­fes­sion­al rela­tion­ship with fel­low bio­log­i­cal war­fare expert Bill Patrick, who direct­ed the above experiment/attack on the New York City sub­way: “. . . . Then there’s the 1965 sim­u­lat­ed attack on the New York City sub­way. On June 8 of that year, under Bill Patrick­’s direc­tion, the sub­way was tar­get­ed with the anthrax sim­u­lant B.g. Light­bulbs, each con­tain­ing 87 tril­lion spores, were dropped onto the tracks. Trains then sucked the clouds of live bac­te­ria into the sub­way sys­tem. C.I.A. and mil­i­tary sci­en­tists, bear­ing fake ID’s, were on loca­tion to count the spores. More than a mil­lion rid­ers were exposed to B.g. that day; many inhaled more than a mil­lion spores per minute. Patrick, when telling this sto­ry, still chuck­les about how ‘we clob­bered the Lex­ing­ton line with B.g.’. . . .”
10.–Despite the age dif­fer­ence, Patrick and Hat­fill became close: ” . . . . The most curi­ous piece of field­work not­ed on Steven Hat­fil­l’s most recent C.V. is that of  ‘open air test­ing and vul­ner­a­bil­i­ty tri­als.’ In a 2001 paper, ‘Bio­log­i­cal War­fare Sce­nar­ios,’ Bill Patrick called the 1965 sim­u­lat­ed attack on the New York sub­way ‘one of the most impor­tant vul­ner­a­bil­i­ty stud­ies’ of the 70 he con­duct­ed. . . . By 1998, Hat­fill was Patrick­’s side­kick in what one col­league has described as a ‘Bat­man and Robin’ team. But it is from USAMRIID that Hat­fill claims to have acquired his work­ing knowl­edge of army-spon­sored ‘vul­ner­a­bil­i­ty’ tri­als. . . .”
11.–Hatfill has net­worked with Steve Ban­non, appear­ing on his pod­cast. (Hat­fill threw cold water on the sug­ges­tion that Covid-19 may have been man­u­fac­tured in a lab­o­ra­to­ry. A high­ly intel­li­gent, vet­er­an covert oper­a­tor, Hat­fill would have cer­tain­ly done this, IF he had knowl­edge of, or involve­ment with, ele­ments that had authored such an event. Giv­en Hat­fil­l’s affil­i­a­tion with groups like the Rhode­sian Selous Scouts and White Afrikan­er Resis­tance, we won­der if Hat­fill or a like-mind­ed indi­vid­ual may have pro­vid­ed infor­ma­tion for and/or impe­tus to, a vec­tor­ing of New York City with a rel­a­tive­ly mild Covid-19 strain? Might Hat­fil­l’s work on “four lev­els of bio­log­i­cal attack” been an inspi­ra­tional or oper­a­tional basis for a “lev­el four” attack?: ” . . . . The fourth lev­el con­sists of a self-sus­tain­ing, unstop­pable epi­dem­ic. . . .”
12.–In FTR #324, we not­ed that the Broeder­bond orga­ni­za­tion had appar­ent­ly per­pet­u­at­ed itself in an alto­geth­er lethal form as “Die Organ­isas­ie” or “Third Force.” Might such a group have links to Steve Ban­non and/or Trump’s milieu? Might they have been con­nect­ed to a hypo­thet­i­cal vec­tor­ing of New York City? There are Amer­i­cans involved with “Die Organ­isas­ie.” We won­der if this might be linked to the orga­ni­za­tion con­tained in the Air Force Acad­e­my report men­tioned in the arti­cle about Lar­ry Ford?
13.–About “Die Organ­isas­ie”: “. . . . [Nico] Palm spoke enig­mat­i­cal­ly of ‘Die Organ­isas­ie,’ a pulp fic­tion nom de guerre (which he calls, even more melo­dra­mat­i­cal­ly, the ‘Spi­der Net­work’). It is a group of white South Africans who wait patient­ly for he demise of the ANC gov­ern­ment and a return to the old days. They are not the mad pseu­do-Nazis of the far right, but some­thing far more orga­nized, well financed, and patient. Oth­er peo­ple know them as ‘The Third Force.’ We are to hear of them time and again from ex-sol­diers like Nico Palm all the way up to South Africa’s deputy defense min­is­ter, Ron­nie Kas­rils. Sig­nif­i­cant­ly, files have also been opened by MI5 in poten­tial­ly sig­nif­i­cant union of like-mind­ed South African right-wingers. All of them are ex-pats now liv­ing in the Unit­ed King­dom, who may sup­port the desta­bi­liza­tion of any black South African gov­ern­ment. . . .”
14.–About Amer­i­cans in Die Organ­isas­ie: “. . . . [for­mer Swiss intel­li­gence agent Juer­gen] Jacomet, now ner­vous, is pressed to expand a lit­tle. ‘There is a group of peo­ple here in Lon­don, he says. ‘One could call them the friends of South Africa. They have it in mind to see a strong white South Africa again. There are Amer­i­can con­nec­tions too. . . .”
15.–More about the Amer­i­can links to Die Organ­isas­ie” ” . . . . Jacomet men­tions some well-known South African names—men pre­vi­ous­ly asso­ci­at­ed with Third Force activ­i­ties. He also refers to an Amer­i­can name known to Britain’s MI5 for his alleged involve­ment with Bas­son in mon­ey laun­der­ing, sanc­tions bust­ing, and bio­log­i­cal agents pro­cure­ment. [Empha­sis added.] Once again, Die Organ­isas­ie is men­tioned in respect­ful tones, and, once again, the details remain scant and elu­sive. Jacomet remains silent . . . .”
16.–When informed by the British about Project Coast (the apartheid BW pro­gram) and Die Organ­isas­ie (or ‘Third Force’), Man­dela feared that the weapons would fall into the hands of the Afrikan­er Resis­tance Move­ment (AWB) with which Hat­fill is con­nect­ed: ” . . . . In the end it was British rep­re­sen­ta­tives who decid­ed to approach Pres­i­dent Man­dela, with a min­i­mum of fan­fare, to advise him that he was inher­it­ing an ugly bio­log­i­cal assas­si­na­tion pro­gram from the pre­vi­ous admin­is­tra­tions. Mandela’s first reac­tion was: ‘Oh my God!’ He was ini­tial­ly ter­ri­fied that the South African ‘Third Force’ ele­ments, includ­ing such orga­ni­za­tions as Eugene Terre Blanche’s ultra right-wing and fanat­i­cal AWB, might lay their hands on it. . . .”
17.–Ebola was appar­ent­ly the focal point of some of Lar­ry Ford’s work: ” . . . . Ford told the Rileys and oth­ers his sub­se­quent work for the mil­i­tary and the CIA includ­ed research on bio­log­i­cal and chem­i­cal weapons, con­sult­ing on Iraqi capa­bil­i­ties dur­ing the Gulf War, and sneak­ing into epi­dem­ic hot zones in Africa to gath­er sam­ples of such killer organ­isms as the Ebo­la and Mar­burg virus­es. . . .”
18.–Dr. Stamps–Zimbabwe’s Health Minister–had some point­ed obser­va­tions about out­breaks of Ebo­la dur­ing that nation’s war of inde­pen­dence and his belief that they result­ed from Project Coast. Note that Hat­fill was involved with the Rhode­sian Selous Scouts: “ . . . . ‘I have my sus­pi­cions about Ebo­la too. [Dr. Stamps is quoted–the Health Min­is­ter of Zim­bab­we] It devel­oped along the line of the Zam­bezi Riv­er, and I sus­pect that this may have been an exper­i­ment to see if a new virus could be estab­lished to infect peo­ple. We looked on the sero­log­i­cal evi­dence on strange cas­es, includ­ing a fif­teen-year-old child which occurred in 1980. Noth­ing real­ly made epi­demi­o­log­i­cal sense. Do I have evi­dence? Only cir­cum­stan­tial. In fact, the Rhode­sian secu­ri­ty forces were more expert than the Nazis at cov­er­ing up evi­dence.’ . . .”
19.–Corroborating some of Dr. Stamps’ sus­pi­cions con­cern­ing Ebo­la, “Gert” (a pseu­do­nym for a vet­er­an of Project Coast) dis­cussed the use of that virus and the relat­ed Mar­burg virus in Project Coast. “Gert” also implies that US sci­en­tists from Ft. Det­rick (Dr. Ford? Steven Hat­fill) were involved with a Zairi­an out­break. “ . . . . ‘Look, I know what one of the very, very, very secret spe­cial­ized units had. We had to test it. And that was viral cap­sules that were specif­i­cal­ly relat­ed to Con­go fever and the hem­or­rhag­ic fevers.’ Ebo­la? ‘Yes.’ So Gert is begin­ning to cor­rob­o­rate Dr. Stamp’s sus­pi­cions in Harare that Ebo­la and Mar­burg, although indige­nous, were also arti­fi­cial­ly seed­ed into South­ern Africa. Bas­son, says Gert, was involved in all this. (when the last ter­ri­ble Ebo­la out­break occurred in Kik­wit, Zaire, as late as 1995, Gert claims that Bas­son was there, unof­fi­cial­ly. Twen­ty years ear­li­er, when the vil­lage of Yam­buku in north­ern Zaire wit­nessed one of the first major Ebo­la out­breaks, two South African sci­en­tists were there, alleged­ly work­ing hand in glove with US mil­i­tary per­son­nel from Fort Det­rick.) . . . . ”
20.–In numer­ous pro­grams and posts, we have cov­ered the Gilead Sci­ences drug remde­sivir, now approved for treat­ing Covid-19, despite luke­warm infor­ma­tion from tri­als. Remde­sivir is made by Gilead Sci­ences, a major hold­ing of Robert Mer­cer’s Renais­sance Tech­nolo­gies. (Mer­cer, of course, was Steve Ban­non’s finan­cial angel.) Note that Remde­sivir was ini­tial­ly devel­oped to fight Ebo­la, and “fiz­zled.” Again, might there be a link to Project Coast, the late Dr. Lar­ry Ford, Steven Hat­fill, Ft. Det­rick, “Die Organ­isas­ie” or some com­bi­na­tion there­of?
21.–We also note that Chi­na has been mak­ing sig­nif­i­cant inroads into Africa, a devel­op­ment that has been a major focal point of activ­i­ty by Mike Pom­peo’s State Depart­ment. It is worth remem­ber­ing, in this con­text, that such a devel­op­ment MIGHT make Chi­na a focal point of activ­i­ty by Die Organ­isas­ie, per­haps as part of a covert oper­a­tion over­seen by Ban­non. Again, might there be a link to Project Coast, the late Dr. Lar­ry Ford, Steven Hat­fill, Ft. Det­rick, “Die Organ­isas­ie” or some com­bi­na­tion there­of?

White Supremacists, Nazis and Biological Warfare

In FTR #1127, we not­ed that a ran­dom test­ing of New York City res­i­dents indi­cat­ed that up to a fifth of the city’s res­i­dents may have been infect­ed with one of the milder strains of Covid019. That sug­gests very strong­ly that the city was vectored–it is epi­demi­o­log­i­cal­ly absurd to assume that the virus came from Chi­na. In that same pro­gram, we not­ed that New York had been the site of a bio­log­i­cal war­fare test in 1965: ” . . . . In the sum­mer of 1965, Spe­cial Oper­a­tions men walked into three New York City sub­way sta­tions and tossed light­bulbs filled with Bacil­lus sub­tilis, a benign bac­te­ria, onto the tracks. The sub­way trains pushed the germs through the entire sys­tem and the­o­ret­i­cal­ly killed over a mil­lion pas­sen­gers. . . .” In FTR #317, we set forth the late Dr. Lar­ry Ford’s work for the CIA assist­ing the South African apartheid regime’s Project Coast bio­log­i­cal war­fare pro­gram. Ford: was a devo­tee of “The Turn­er Diaries; secured Ebo­la and Mar­burg virus­es for Project Coast; may have been linked to a glob­al net­work of white suprema­cists that grew out of Project Coast; was posthu­mous­ly inves­ti­gat­ed in con­nec­tion with the anthrax attacks of 2001. In FTR #642, we high­light­ed bio­log­i­cal war­fare expert Steven Hat­fil­l’s asso­ci­a­tion with the white nation­al­ist regimes of Rhode­sia (now Zim­bab­we) and apartheid South Africa, includ­ing White Afrikan­er Resis­tance (AWB). Hat­fill was inves­ti­gat­ed in con­nec­tion with the 2001 anthrax attacks as well, and sub­se­quent­ly exhon­er­at­ed. Hat­fill was very close to Bill Patrick, who over­saw the 1965 bio­log­i­cal war­fare exper­i­ment which infect­ed the New York City Sub­way sys­tem with mil­lions of sim­u­lat­ed path­o­gen­ic bac­te­ria. We won­der if Hat­fill may have (per­haps indi­rect­ly) pro­vid­ed impe­tus to a vec­tor­ing of New York City with a mild strain of Covid-19? We also note that Hat­fill has net­worked with Steve Ban­non, who is at the epi­cen­ter of the anti-Chi­na effort. In FTR #324, we exam­ined Project Coast in detail. That exam­i­na­tion includ­ed the oper­a­tion’s use of Ebo­la (alleged­ly in tan­dem with per­son­nel from Ft. Det­rick) and very cred­i­ble accounts of a pow­er­ful, alto­geth­er dead­ly net­work of post-apartheid operatives–“Die Organ­isas­ie”– linked to Project Coast and aspir­ing to a return to white dom­i­na­tion of South­ern Africa. With Chi­na mak­ing inroads into Africa, we won­der if that alto­geth­er lethal net­work MAY have been enlist­ed in the anti-Chi­na effort? We also won­der if some of the Project Coast research MAY have had bear­ing on the selction of remde­sivir (developed–unsuccessfully–to fight Ebo­la), pro­duced by Gilead Sciences,a major invest­ment of Robert Mer­cer’s Renais­sance Tech­nolo­gies?

Nazi and German Support for the Apartheid Government

In the after­math of Nel­son Man­de­la’s pass­ing, it is impor­tant to remem­ber the true nature of the forces he opposed and the fact that they did NOT dis­ap­pear with the demise of Apartheid. In FTR #225, among oth­er pro­grams, we exam­ined the Nazi her­itage of the Broeder­bond, the pri­ma­ry pow­er cen­ter of the Apartheid gov­ern­ment of South Africa. In Mis­cel­la­neous Archive Show M8, we not­ed the pro­found Ger­man role in aid­ing the South African effort to devel­op the atom­ic bomb. An inci­sive post by German-Foreign-Policy.com (which feeds along the bot­tom of the front page) sup­ple­ments the infor­ma­tion in these pro­grams.

FTR #754 The Adventures of Eddie the Friendly Spook, Part 1: Dramatis Personae, Part 1 (Citizen Greenwald)

Glenn Green­wald’s no defend­er of human rights. He defend­ed the rights of Nazi mur­der­ers and ter­ror­ists, doing so pro-bono. Using the rubric of “pro­tect­ed free speech,” he ran inter­fer­ence for the lead­er­less resis­tance strat­e­gy, defend­ing the Nation­al Alliance, whose books are intend­ed as instruc­tion­al man­u­als for ter­ror­ists and assas­sins. He vio­lat­ed legal ethics while defend­ing Nazi leader Matthew Hale. He defend­ed Hale when he was accused of solic­it­ing the mur­der of Judge Joan Lefkow (Hale was con­vict­ed.)

Snowden’s Ride, Part 7: Citizen Greenwald, The National Alliance and The Underground Reich

In our last post, we high­light­ed Green­wald’s five-year long rep­re­sen­ta­tion of Matthew Hale, head of the World Church of the Cre­ator. In addi­tion to Hale, Green­wald also rep­re­sent­ed a con­sor­tium of neo-Naz­i/White Suprema­cist groups, includ­ing the Nation­al Alliance. Accused of incit­ing fol­low­ers to racist vio­lence, The Nation­al Alliance was defend­ed by Green­wald in order to pre­serve their right to free speech. Nation­al Alliance books are specif­i­cal­ly craft­ed to incite mur­der and ter­ror­ism. Nation­al Alliance head William Luther Pierce net­worked with Nazis in Latin Amer­i­ca, as did the ter­ror­ist group The Order, which his work inspired. UPDATED ON 7/20/2013, 7/29/2013.
