RM: Jeg mener at det å sende folk i fengsel eller arbeidsleir
fordi de har egne meninger og gir uttrykk for dem,
er ulovlig og meningsløst, selv om enkelte klausuler i
straffeloven krever slik straff.
Stalin gjorde seg skyldig i å lage flere slike lover som vi
nå ser på som misbruk av makt.
Hvorfor må en sovjetisk borger sitte i fengsel i tre til fire år
fordi man mener han er mot staten?
Og hvis han misliker sosialismen,
kommer han til å like den noe bedre etter å ha vært underlagt
arbeidsleirens regime i fem eller syv år?

Stalins maktapparat hadde sin egen brutale logikk. I Gulag
systemet ble man aldri fri.
Fra fengselet gikk man til arbeidsleiren, fra arbeidsleiren
til innenlands deportering.
Uten å kamuflere sin kynisme sa styresmaktene at hvis ikke
folk var anti-sovjetiske i utgangspunktet, ville de garantert
bli det etter en tid i arbeidsleirene, derfor var det påkrevet
å holde dem fengslet.
I dag respekterer man straffeloven, men det forsvarer ikke at
man kaster folk i fengsel bare på grunn av idéene deres.

Når man skriver i skrivende stund må man stadig regne med at noe uforutsett vil skje. Det er det eneste man kan være sikker på. Man må ta høyde for alt. Fortiden vet man stort sett hvor man har, hvis det ikke kommer noen idealister og vil omskrive den; fremtiden kan man gjøre hva man vil med, i det minste i tankene, men øyeblikket er umulig å kontrollere. Det er derfor så mange dessverre ønsker å leve i øyeblikket. De ønsker å miste kontrollen. De kaller det frihet.

Gro Harlem Brundtland fikk hodepine av mobiltelefoner.

Og siden hun var generaldirektør for WHO, Verdens helsevesen,
og tidligere statsminister i Norge, følte hun ikke behov for
å be noen om unnskyldning   [for å ha sine symptomer].

Hun bare ga ordre, rett og slett, om at ingen skulle gå inn
på kontoret hennes i Geneve med en mobiltelefon.

Hun ga til og med intervju om det i 2002 til en større norsk
avis.
Året etter var hun ikke lenger direktør for WHO.
Ingen andre offentlige tjenestemenn har gjort den feilen
etter henne.

Selv de som virkelig ikke får hodepine, får påvirket søvnen
såvel som hukommelsen, av mobiltelefoner.

..Av mangel på et mer akseptert uttrykk kaller vi vår skade
for "el-følsomhet", "el-overfølsomhet" eller enda verre:
"elektromagnetisk overfølsomhet" (EHS).
Et absurd misvisende navn på de akutte symptomer fra en
eksponering som hele verden og alle utsettes for,

like absurd som "blåsyre-overfølsomhet" ville være hvis noen
hadde brukt en slik merkelapp på en som var blitt forgiftet
med cyanid.

Nå sitter vi alle i den elektriske stol -- med større eller
mindre plager,
men fordi samfunnet har fornektet dette temaet i mer enn
to hundre år, finner vi opp begreper som tilslører fakta.

Ja, Zobrist argumenterte for at teknologien han hadde
utviklet, burde bli brukt til å hemme befolknings-tilveksten
ved å skape sykdoms-hybrider ..

Men det mest uhyggelige eksempelet Langdon kunne huske, var
fra romanen Logan's Run fra 1967, som omhandlet et
framtidssamfunn der alle gladelig gikk med på å begå selvmord
når de ble 21 år gamle. Da kunne de nyte ungdomstiden til
fulle, uten å la antall mennesker, eller alderdom presse
jordens begrensede ressurser.
Filmversjonen av Logan's Run hadde økt "terminasjonsalderen"
fra 21 til 30, for å gjøre filmen mer spiselig for den viktige
publikumsgruppen mellom 18 og 25.

Mesteparten .. kommer fra et kontroversielt essay Zobrist skrev
for noen få år siden. Det gjorde dypt inntrykk og spredde seg
helt viralt i medisinske miljøer. .. Sorry, dårlig valgt ord.

..I essayet hevdet han kort fortalt, at menneskeheten sto på
randen av utryddelse, og at med mindre vi ble utsatt for en
katastrofe som sørget for et drastisk stup i befolknings-
tilveksten, så ville ikke vår art overleve hundre år til.

..Den antatte tidsrammen var betydelig kortere enn tidligere
estimater, men fikk støtte av antatt temmelig solide viten-
skapelige data.
Han fikk en masse fiender ved å påstå at leger burde slutte å
praktisere medisinsk terapi, fordi å forlenge menneskers liv
bare ville forverre befolkningsproblemet.

Nå skjønte Langdon hvorfor artikkelen hadde spredd seg så
raskt i medisinske miljøer.

Ikke overraskende, fortsatte Sienna, ble Zobrist angrepet fra
alle kanter; politikere, kirken, WHO -- alle latterliggjorde
ham som en sinnssyk dommedagsprofet som bare skapte panikk.
Særlig ble de fornærmet av påstanden om at dagens ungdom, om
de valgte å forplante seg, ville få avkom som bokstavelig talt
ville bli vitner til selve endetiden for menneskeheten.

Zobrist illustrerte poenget ved en 'dommedagsklokke' som viste
at om hele menneskehetens tid ble komprimert .. så var vi nå
inne i de siste sekundene. ( .. )

Men den største motstanden møtte han da han hevdet at
resultatene han hadde oppnådd innen genetikken, ville vært mye
mer nyttige for menneskeheten om de ikke ble brukt til å kurere
sykdommer, men til å skape dem.

Ja, Zobrist argumenterte for at teknologien han hadde
utviklet, burde bli brukt til å hemme befolknings-tilveksten
ved å skape sykdoms-hybrider som vår moderne medisin
ikke ville være i stand til å kurere.

Langdon merket en økende frykt der han så for seg bilder av
et merkelig, hybrid "designervirus"

som ville være helt ustoppelig snart etter at det var sluppet
løs.

"Det er egentlig ikke så rart at han klikka helt og tok livet
av seg. Ekstra trist fordi tesen hans sannsynligvis er riktig."

Langdon holdt på å gå rett i bakken.
"Unnskyld meg -- mener du han har rett? "

..For det er meget lettere å ofre sin åndelige stolthet på
Verdensrevolusjonens alter, enn å hente den tilbake.

Det kan være en av grunnene til at kommunismen har hatt så
meget større fremgang i katolske land enn i protestantiske:
Iallfall i sin opprinnelse er protestanten en mann som av
samvittighetsgrunner motsetter seg enhver åndelig underkastelse
under et hierarki.
Han hevder å vite hva som er rett og urett, ved det indre lys
som er i ham selv, og for ham er demokratiet ikke bare en
bekvem eller rettferdig form for styre, men en nødvendighet
for ens menneskeverd.
Hans urtype er Prometheus, som stjal ilden fra himmelen ...
og nektet å oppgi sin rett til å hjelpe sine medmennesker ved
intellektuell innsats.

..sommeren 1931 var jeg arrogant sikker på at det tyske sosial-
demokrati ville bli knekket av nazistene, og at en krig var
uunngåelig når Hitler hadde tatt makten.
Hvorfor reagerte jeg så ikke i mitt indre overfor kommunismens
appell? ..Lavkirkelig vrienhet, eller stolthet, om en vil.
Ingen pave for meg, takk - hverken åndelig eller verdslig. ..
Som folk har vi frembragt mer enn vår del av kjettere, fordi
vi har mer enn vår andel av samvittighetsgrunnet opposisjon
mot ufeilbarlighet.
Henrik VIII var i sin tid prototypen på en titoist.

..En av de selsomste avsløringer i disse selvbiografiene
gjelder den profesjonelle kommunists holdning til den
intellektuelle konvertitt. Ikke bare avskydde de og mistenkte
ham, det synes også som de lot ham underkaste en stadig og
bevisst åndelig tortur.
I førstningen styrket denne behandlingen bare hans tro og økte
hans følelse av ydmykhet overfor den ektefødte proletar.
Ved 'åndelig trening' måtte han erverve de egenskaper som han
naivt trodde var medfødt hos arbeideren.
Men så snart den intellektuelle nyomvendte begynte å få bedre
kjennskap til forholdene i Russland, ble hans innstilling en
annen. Silone beskriver dette meget greit. Ydmykheten ble
avløst av en tro på at Vesten måtte bringe lyset til Østen,
og middelklassen til proletariatet (denne troen ble i fullt
monn understøttet av Karl Marx, som hadde usigelig forakt for
slaverne). Dette ble begynnelsen til hans skuffelse og en
unnskyldning for å fortsette i partiet. Skuffelse, fordi
hovedmotivet for omvendelsen hadde vært mangel på tillit til
den vest-europeiske sivilisasjon, som nå viste seg å kunne
yte verdier som var uunnværlige for den russiske kommunismes
frelse. - Unnskyldning, fordi det kunne hevdes at hvis Vestens
innflytelse på kommunismen opphørte, ville Østens brutalitet
gjøre frihetens forsvarere til representanter for et
motbydelig tyranni. Her fikk man en ny og enda forferdeligere
samvittighetskonflikt som André Gide løste ved sitt klassiske
innlegg for den vestlige kultur, mot russisk kommunisme.

Gå ikke glipp av instruktivt interview med Dr. Carrie Madej,
innfelt i denne> artikkelen, bokstavlig om 'Verdens Tvang'

History in this area begins nearly 70 years ago.

Currently-entrenched official positions on safe RF public
exposure levels originated in the 1950s, during the period known
as the Cold War between the United States of America (USA) and
the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR). At this time,
the US Department of Defense (DOD) was charged with developing
radar (radio-based detection and ranging) systems capable of
detecting incoming Soviet missiles.

This meant that the US military had a major vested interest in
producing radar installations that were as powerful as possible.
Objections raised by local US communities upset at the unheralded
appearance of such facilities in their neighborhoods
were dismissed as a minor cost in comparison with the perceived
benefit of preventing nuclear annihilation.

Thus, in terms of the above definition of conflict of interest,
both of the interests that were clearly in conflict here were
perceived to be protection of the public — it is just that one
of them (the one that prevailed) was a product of military paranoia,
while the other involved the much more mundane question of everyday
health and safety.

A further complication during this historical period was that
microwaves were widely used in diathermy, a then popular medical
treatment for a number of conditions thought to be improved by
tissue heating. Hence, it was convenient for both military and
medical circles in the US to ignore early scientific indications
to the contrary and choose to believe uncritically the hypothesis
that the only way in which microwave radiation could affect
biological organisms was by heating them.
Interestingly however, when it came to the setting of standards
regulating the level of microwave radiation to which people could
safely be exposed, the medical profession was deemed to have too much
vested interest in diathermy to participate,
while the obvious conflict of interest involved in making the
military responsible for setting acceptable microwave power limits
was ignored.

By 1960, all three branches of the US military had concluded,
on the basis of one man’s calculations and some minimal
experimentation (involving disruption of food-motivated
behavior in irradiated laboratory animals) that 10 mW/cm2 was a
safe power density limit to prevent excessive tissue heating,
and after some debate, this figure duly became the basis of the
first IEEE/ANSI C95.1 microwave standard in 1966.

Thereafter, the DOD treated all reports of biological effects of
RF power densities less than 10 mW/cm2 as a threat to national
security and shut down any lab that produced them [4,5,6].

In contrast, the Soviets whose imagined missiles the DOD was
charged with detecting and destroying concentrated on following
up early reports of sub-thermal microwave effects,

and as a result, set their exposure limit at 0.01 mW/cm2.

This thousand-fold stricter limit posed a serious problem for US
military planners — if any of America’s western European allies
were tempted to adopt it, deployment of American radar installations
in Europe would be jeopardized.
Therefore, concurrent with the space/arms race, an RF standards
race was played out in various international organizations, such as
WHO (the World Health Organization) and NATO (the North Atlantic
Treaty Organization) [3].

Internationalization of what was by now the unchallengable dogma
that tissue heating was the only possible biological effect of RF
was achieved by the simple expedient of embedding individuals
committed to the thermal-only narrative in WHO and NATO.

In 1971, Sol Michaelson, the American who had been most instrumental
in the adoption of the thermal-only standard by ANSI C95.1,
was appointed to a committee called the Task Group on Environmental
Health Criteria for Radiofrequency and Microwaves,
jointly convened by WHO and the International Radiation Protection
Agency (IRPA).
The founding chairman of IRPA was Michael Repacholi, an Australian
also committed to the thermal-only dogma.
In 1992, IRPA morphed into ICNIRP (the International Commission on
Non Ionizing Radiation Protection), with Repacholi still as the chair.

And in 1998, ICNIRP brought out the Guidelines document which still
enshrines the ANSI thermal-only dogma as the basis of national
standards throughout the English-speaking world.

Meanwhile, back in the USA, a second strand of activity in support
of the thermal-only dogma was quietly emerging.
In the early 1970s, a growing popular environmental movement and
the consequent espousal by the US Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA) of a precautionary approach to a great many potential
health hazards were seen by corporate interests as a threat to the
foundations of industrial society [7].

The challenge for industry was cast as how best to respond to
legislative restrictions on the activities of corporations —
and in particular to the science that led to those restrictions.
One major response to this challenge was the establishment in
1972 of a ‘Business Roundtable’ consisting of many of America’s
CEOs, for the express purpose of promoting “less unwarranted
intrusion by government into business affairs”
and ensuring that “the business sector in a pluralistic society
should play an active and effective role in the formation of
public policy” [7].

Lobby offices were established in Washington, and a number of
industry-backed think tanks created to come up with strategies
applicable to all industries.
Measures adopted with respect to the biological effects of
microwave emissions mirrored those of the tobacco industry:
They included the following:

Creation of an air of uncertainty about the science: Given that
biological organisms are formidably complex and that science by
its nature rarely involves complete certainty,
this should perhaps not have proved too difficult.
But just to make sure, a concerted campaign of disinformation was
launched anyway.
Basically, whenever a piece of science inimical to industry or Air
Force interests appeared, contractors were hired to discredit it
by apparently repeating the experiments, but actually changing
critical factors to produce more funder-friendly results.
Frey [6] describes one such attempt as follows:

“After my colleagues and I published in 1975 [8], that exposure
to very weak microwave radiation opens the regulatory interface
known as the blood brain barrier (BBB),
a critical protection for the brain, the Brooks AFB group selected
a contractor to supposedly replicate our experiment.
For 2 years, this contractor presented data at scientific
conferences stating that microwave radiation had no effect on
the BBB. After much pressure from the scientific community, he
finally revealed that he had not, in fact, replicated our work.

We had injected dye into the femoral vein of lab rats after
exposure to microwaves and observed the dye in the brain
within 5 min. The Brooks contractor had stuck a needle into the
animals’ bellies and sprayed the dye onto their intestines.
Thus it is no surprise that when he looked at the brain 5 min
later, he did not see any dye; the dye had yet to make it
into the circulatory system.”

The continuing nature of such campaigns is suggested by Maisch
[3], who writes:
“A survey conducted by the New York based publication Microwave
News in 2006 consisted of examining papers on microwave effects
on DNA that were published in peer-reviewed journals since 1990.

A total of 85 papers on the topic were identified. 43 of the
papers reported finding a biological effect and 42 did not.

Of the 42 no-effect papers, 32 were identified as having been
funded by either the U.S. Air Force or industry.
With the 43 papers that reported effects, only 3 were identified
as being funded by Air Force or industry.
This survey thus suggests that the source of funding has a strong
influence on the outcome of research”.

Adoption of an algebraic model of evidence assessment:
Once approximately equal numbers of papers had been installed in
the scientific literature
concluding that sub-thermal levels of microwaves on the one hand
do, but on the other hand do not, have harmful biological effects,

the narrative was promulgated in official circles that “weight
of evidence” is the important thing to consider in such matters.

The implicit model behind this narrative involves an unstated
presumption that each negative study (i.e., each study that does
not find any effect of low intensity microwaves) cancels out
one positive study (i.e., one study that does find an effect of
low intensity microwaves);
with an algebraic sum of zero indicating no effect [9].
Any inconvenient remainder is then dealt with by impugning the
validity and/or the significance of particularly convincing
postive studies: as, for example, in Section 4.2 and Appendix A
of the NZ Government Interagency Report 2018 1.

Population of regulatory bodies by industry insiders:
The above strategies certainly served to convince time-strapped
politicians that all is fine, but to an unbiased scientist,
they appear decidedly dicey. Thus, the most vital of all the
strategies implemented by Big Wireless has been
the appointment to regulatory roles of people who are, or used
to be, members of the industries they are now charged with
regulating.
Arguably the most important regulatory body in the world is
ICNIRP, whose 1998 Guidelines document is still the basis of
the national standards adopted by the governments of most
English-speaking nations.
ICNIRP is a self-selected, private (non-governmental) organization,
populated exclusively by members invited by existing members.

The organization is very concerned to project the image that it
is composed of disinterested scientists — indeed all ICNIRP members
are required to post on the organization’s website detailed
declarations of interest (DOIs).
However, a closer inspection of these DOIs reveals that a good
many of the sections of a good many of the forms remain unfilled,
and a detailed list of undeclared conflicts of interest among
ICNIRP members has been published by a group of concerned citizens
[10].
The relevant section of WHO is essentially identical to ICNIRP [11]:
Michael Repacholi, the founder of ICNIRP, established the WHO
International EMF Project (IEMFP) in 1996 and remained in charge
of it until 2006 [3], when he reportedly resigned after
allegations of corruption [12] to officially become an industry
consultant [13].

In 2004, Repacholi stated in a conference presentation that the
IEMFP was able to “receive funding from any source through Royal
Adelaide Hospital; an agency established through WHO Legal
Department agreement to collect funds for the project”
—an arrangement that reportedly enabled receipt of annual
payments of $150,000 from the cellphone industry [3,14].
Thus, in spite of their stated rules and protestations to the
contrary, there have been persistent allegations that both ICNIRP
and the relevant section of WHO are riddled with undeclared
conflicts of interest.
In the USA, the Federal Communications Commission, whose function
it is to regulate the wireless industry in that country, has been
openly characterized by the Edmond J. Safra Center for Ethics
at Harvard University as “a captured agency” [15].
(. . .)

Because disruption of the BBB (blood brain barrier) is a known
contributor to the onset and development of Alzheimer’s disease
and other forms of dementia [34,35],
at least two public health conclusions might reasonably be drawn
from these findings.
First, it would be prudent to advise the increasing population of
elderly citizens to avoid cell phones, smart meters, and Wi-Fi.

But perhaps more importantly, chronic exposure of the young to RF
now starts in the womb and continues throughout babyhood
(wireless baby monitors), childhood (wrist-worn child locators),
and adolescence (smart phones, Wi-Fi).
Because the biological effects of RF are known to be cumulative,

urgent steps should be taken to reduce the exposure of babies,
children, and teenagers to radiofrequency radiation,
to avoid an epidemic of early-onset dementia starting in middle age.
