THE SPOTLIGHT: AMERICA'S LAST REAL NEWSPAPER * THE VOICE OF THE AMERICAN MAJORITY
Military Behind Mystery Chemtrails
Just what exactly are those mysterious
airplane vapor trails seen filling America's skies? A group of independent
investigators may have the answer.
EXCLUSIVE TO THE SPOTLIGHT
By Mike Blair
In a series of high-tech programs that would
enthrall the most dedicated science fiction fans, the military is producing what
have become known as "chemtrails" -- the thick, viscous airplane engine trails
that have been poisoning the air and ground with toxic chemicals.
For two years, The SPOTLIGHT has been in contact with experts in
fields ranging from medicine to nuclear energy who have been
investigating the mysterious trails left by airplanes in skies all
over America and in many foreign countries.
These "tracks" in the skies, believed to be left by a combination of
military and civilian aircraft drawn into the massive,
multi-billion dollar program, are unlike regular high-flying aircraft's vapor
trails. Instead of dissipating rapidly, these so-called "chemtrails" mesh
together for hours and are often mistaken for natural clouds.
The principal chemical being deposited in the air consists of various
mixtures of barium salts, which were revealed in studies
undertaken by a Pennsylvania-based high-tech weapons scientist.
Chemicals, he said, were being utilized as part of the development of a
new radar system at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in
Dayton, Ohio.
The base will be the site of a massive
demonstration on Saturday, June 23, starting at 1 p.m. under the sponsorship of
Ohio Citizens Against Chemtrails, headed by Kim Weber, one of the citizens
working on the chemtrail investigation.
The rally will be attended by hundreds of people from across the nation who
are concerned about these poisons being dumped out of the sky onto millions of
people on the ground.
Considerable effort has been put into chemtrail research by a physicist who
has been associated with Brookhaven National
Laboratory on Long Island, N.Y. The scientist, with is fellow researchers,
has determined that the chemtrails are being created by efforts of the military
in at least four major, but separate, projects.
The first project is an effort to block the rays of the sun from hitting
the Earth, including ultra-violet radiation that will
come through without an adequate layer of ozone in the upper regions above the
Earth.
In the event of global warming, this, it is hoped, could lower temperatures
on the surface of the Earth and block ultra-violet
radiation from causing skin cancer in humans.
The aerosol being sprayed in this case is probably aluminum oxide or a compound
that would have similar properties, and is the only one of the government programs
that does not use the barium mixtures.
BLACK PROJECTS?
The second and most secret project is the Navy's Radio Frequency Mission
Planner (RFMP) program, which is a system encompassing a group of computer programs.
One of its supporting subprograms is know as
Variable Terrain Radio Parabolic Equation or VTRPE. This is a computer radio
frequency propagation program that deals with radio waves and enables the RFMP
system to visually see the terrain of a battlefield in three dimensions on a
television-type screen.
The RFMP system also depends on a satellites to supplement the images of a
battlefield picture obtained from the ground, thus
producing the 3-dimensional images.
In providing an interactive picture portraying in the radar screen, the
RFMP system allows the computer operator to develop familiarity with the
"environment" before a war mission occurs by playing a
variety of "what if?" virtual warfare scenarios on his computer screen.
Since all major modes of radio frequency propagation are modeled in his computer
(the RFMP system), special, sometimes counter-intuitive, cases can be examined
in detail and exploited during a battle.
Initially, the VTRPE computer program only worked accurately over water and
along coastal areas but not over land masses because the system's radar waves
required an atmospheric condition known as "ducting,"
over land, to operate accurately.
This "ducting" problem was solved by releasing an aerosol, a mixture
of barium salts into the atmosphere over the United
States. Thus, they can make an atmospheric radio frequency "duct" with a
base of barium aerosol released from aircraft.
One of the researchers, the physicist from
Brookhaven, explained how the process works: The chemical and electrical
characteristics of the mixture cause moisture to stay in the clouds. The
aerosol sets up an electrical and chemical environmental that supports RF
ducting for the RFMP/VTRPE warfare system.
"The mixture of barium salt from the aerosol when sprayed in a straight
line will also provide a ducting path form point A to
point B and will enable high frequency communications along that path, even over
the curvature of the Earth, in both directions," he said. "Enemy high
frequency communications can be monitored easier with the straight line A to B
ducting medium."
The third project also utilizes the mixture of barium salts in the atmosphere
and involves weather control. It is a project of the AIR Force and utilizes
concepts of radio frequency radiation, developed originally by legendary
scientist Nikola Tesla, against the ionosphere
above the Earth.
Known as the so-called HAARP project, it is manipulating life-support
systems in the environment, testing and altering them
for military advantage.
Air Force documents, obtained by the independent researchers,
indicate that "the risks are high but the rewards are worth it."
The mixture of barium salts, supporting moisture,
is administered along the weather fronts and manipulated in a controlled
fashion.
It is believed that microwave energy is also
utilized in the weather control program. Weather data is also a required
input to the VTRPE program of the RFMP system.
Perfect weather control technology will enable the military to withhold rain,
cause floods, cause drought, cause storms, withhold sunshine, damage food crops,
and bring any country to its knees without firing a shot.
The fourth atmospheric project is being run by the Defense Advanced
Research Projects Agency (DARPA) as a means to detect and
decontaminate enemy biological attacks.
The program also utilizes a mixture of barium salts as the base
vehicle in aerosol, along with special polymer fibers.
The combination allows detection of biological agents.
Some biological agents have actually been released into the
atmosphere in trials, testing the detection and decontamination
systems.
It is believed that barium salt, polymer fibers and other
chemicals in the atmosphere are the physical irritants that may be
directly or indirectly responsible for unexplained nose bleeds, asthma,
allergies, pneumonia, upper respiratory ailments and arthritis-like
systems.
Chemicals sprayed into the atmosphere are
producing air and ground conditions that may be harmful to humans and animals,
while stimulating the growth of molds and bacteria.
Barium salts, an Earth metal, are toxins that absorb readily into the
gastrointestinal tract which are deposited into muscles and other tissue.
No case data is available on the long-term effects of
barium in humans.
"The programs remain secret because the
Environmental Protection Agency and state environmental agencies need 'not know'
about the by-products of the metabolites of these biological, illegal and
harmful agents," said one of the researchers. "It's for that reason the
combined projects have been kept secret from the citizens."
Jet Trails Tested in Combat Scenarios
The U.S. military is testing high-tech,
experimental equipment in the eastern United States.
EXCLUSIVE TO THE SPOTLIGHT
By Mike Blair
Three-dimensional radar systems, such as the
Navy's top secret Variable Terrain Radio Parabolic Equation (VTRPE) program,
which visualize the terrain of a battlefield on a television-type screen, are
being developed through spreading chemtrails across the nation's skies and are
being field tested in the military exercises across the country.
The latest, which the Pentagon is calling "Joint Patriot 01," is under way at
Fort Drum, a military base outside of Watertown, N.Y. Exercises will run through
June 30.
Centered at Fort Drum, the home of the Army's elite 10th Mountain Division, the
military is also utilizing facilities at Combat Readiness Training Centers at
Volk Field, Wisc., Alpena, Mich., and Utah's Dugway Proving Grounds.
"Concurrently, the exercise permits testing of advanced command and control
technology developed by the Air Force Research
Laboratory, Rome, N.Y., research site," a Pentagon spokesman said.
"Numerous technologies will be field tested, including command and control
systems, dynamic planning and targeting systems, sensor systems, and specialized
next-generation communications systems."
The Air Force Research Laboratory at Rome, located in Central New York about
75 miles from Fort Drum, used to be part of Griffiss
Air Force Base, a Strategic Air Command B-52 bomber base.
In 1982, the air base was closed down and the top secret laboratory was the
only Air Force facility retained. The lab was
enhanced and its mission scope increased. Little is known about what goes
on there, but it is known that the scientists there are developing military
technology involving lasers.
In the mid-1990s, a local sensation was created in the vicinity of Rome when
numerous residents reported seeing bizarre "balls of light" traveling at treetop level.
Many believed the phenomena were created at the Air Force laboratory.
The Pentagon claims that the maneuvers at Fort Drum are "a war-fighting
capability training exercise for more than 6,000 Air
and Army National Guard members and elements from the Army, Air Force, Navy and
Marine Corps, and allied reserve forces from Britain and the Netherlands."
In a similar drill, not reported in the media, 26,000 military personnel on
March 20 took part in a massive exercise, which
involved a Navy battle group headed by the aircraft carrier USS Enterprise 200
miles off the coast of North Carolina. In the drill, Eastern North Carolina was
"enemy territory" and the VTRPE system was used to keep surveillance on it.
Exercises at Fort Drum and North Carolina may have been assisted by
Air Force-induced weather changes.

No, I don't and no reference was supplied with this copy of the article via Kim Weber.
Although it is my understanding that they have used barium dispersed in the air for some limited testing of tactical visualizing systems, I haven't seen one shred of evidence that this has been done on a large scale.
Carnicom's tests which purportedly show barium in the air are highly questionable when you get right down to the exact methodologies used to detect it. |

While I respect the solid journalism of the Spotlight and have been posting its articles in the Chemtrail series to over a hundred newsgroups, the point needs to be made that we already know much more and much less than the most conscientious investigative journalists have been telling us.
We already know enough -- as I shall now demonstrate -- that we already know enough to determine that the primary purpose of chemtrailed (sprayed) materials is weather modification -- with all due respect to the excellent journalists who are hot on the trail of alternative explanations.
When we investigate an important matter we all like to be thorough and scientific. I for one have always been in scientistic awe of the man with the thick black horn-rimmed glasses, the crewcut and the white lab coat. And when I want to be throrough in tackling any problem I always seek ways to bring the laboratory man in on the case.
Investigative jouranlists of course seek credibility for their conclusions, and so they want to cover their bases by appealing to scientistic respect for the laboratory that we all share to some extent.
ANd so the good and thorough and contientious journalist makes sure that samples are scientifically gather and sent to the scientist for analysis. And chemtrail constiuents are found. And we get a list of elements and compounds found -- and we then take those chemicals and scroll through our scientific knowledge about their effects and hazzards. Of course radioactive barium will pull up several possibilities for us to explore -- and this is great, I do not knock it -- in fact I am glad that all these threads are being tracked down -- BUT:
this scientistic total reliance on the laboratory keeps us from seeing what deductions can be made from what we already know, from what is already quite plain.
I submit that we already know enough to conclude that chemtrails are applied weather modification technology and nothing else!
(One more point on over-reliance on the research expert:
Another kind of research is also highly respected for uncovering hidden facts -- they guy who looks for the smoking-gun government document or military-man admission. Finding a patent for airborn spray technology is certainly significant. Uncovering the many defense projects that have been undertaken or studied in the past that involve arosol delivery is a very fine thing to do -- but it pulls one in a million directions, none of which rises above the status of a "strong possibility."
Yet, we already know things that point unmistakably to weather modification.]
So let's get to it.
We know the chemtrails are visible.
We know that those who are putting the trails there are after secrecy and have gone to the most extravagant lengths to keep a lid on public awareness and public concern.
We also know that if the government wanted to poison the population from the air they could do so with invisible methods -- and they would do so to meet their other know objective of secrecy.
But the chemtrails are visible. They are opaque.
ANd so we must conclude that their opacity is essentially tied to their purpose. The opacity is needed to fulfill the chemtrails purpose.
Webster's 7th defines opacity as follows:
n. [F. opacité shadiness, fr. L opacitat- opacitas, fr. opacus shaded dark] a. the quality or state of a body that makes it impervious to rays of light; b) the capacity of matter to obstruct the transmission of forms of radient energy in addition to light...
Chemtrails block sunlight, and so they are visible to us. Any poison can be delivered in fine thin sprays that do not block the entire sky.
The sprayers of chemtrails -- who want their spraying kept a secret , would never have overlooked making their treatments of our atmosphere nonobvious by making them invisible to ground observers if they could.
The opacity must be a critical aspect of what they are doing.
The only purpose for opacity is to produce shade below. When shade is produced on the ground, the ground becomes cooler than otherwise. Cooler ground means less heating of the air near the ground. Cooler air near the ground means that less air will rise. Less air rising means that air pressure will be higher lower down and less air will be sucked to that spot laterally to replace risen air. The air circulation pattern of a region will thus be affected. The laying of opaque cloud over a region thus steers weather systems in ways that with modern computers and instrumentation can be predicted. When the variables that affect a system in predictable ways can themselves be controlled, they become instrumental "controlling variables" and you have technology.
Chemtrails have to be weather modification at work and nothing else. (If poisoning is also going on -- it is being done in seperate planes that do not leave telltale chemtrails.
This thought has occured to me and I thought I would share it with you. (I am more interested in China and the Federal Reserve right now -- I am not trying to steal any journalists clients. This site is my only remaining link with the chemtrail issue -- except for an occasional blast across the newsgroups -- which involves no gain for me in any way. (In fact my association with the issue hurts me when talking about China, the Federal Reserve.)
At any rate, I hope you will not reject this thinking merely because you did not say it first.

I follow your logic, Dick. But if the purpose of the chemtrails is weather modification, why not do it on a small scale, see if it works, and if it does, announce publicly what you are doing? The EPA and environmentalist groups might try to block the project, but the government has to deal with them all the time. Why would the people responsible for the chemtrails insist that the spraying be cloaked in secrecy if it is only for weather modification? |

I personally believe that the reasons for chemtrailing are multifaceted and can not be secluded to just weather modification.They are in the process right now of testing their latest space based weapons and we know
I believe,that aluminum and barium are used to facilitate what they are doing.Also it is needed for their mass communication global link up...It is all so open ended.Its bad enough trying to prove one reason let alone many!!!Yes I suppose you can classify this all under one section'weather modification',
but in order to stop all of this we have to know what "THIS" is and its more than one thing. |

This report should be questioned, as all information presented.
Cy did a good job of questioning it...
quote:
Cydoniaquest http://pub8.ezboard.com/fchemtrailschemtrails.showMessage?topicID=5003.topic
Let me just respond to this article piece by piece….and demonstrate why this should raise a lot of red flags in the mind of the reader as to why it is probably bogus, and nothing more than the baseless, unfounded opinion of the author Mike Blaire. I will just place the quotes from the article in italics, and my response underneath:
“These "tracks" in the skies, believed to be left by a combination of military and civilian aircraft drawn into the massive, multi-billion dollar program, are unlike regular high-flying aircraft's vapor trails.”
Notice he uses the word believed here....making this the only honest sentence in the article..
“The principal chemical being deposited in the air consists of various mixtures of barium salts, which were revealed in studies undertaken by a Pennsylvania-based high-tech weapons scientist. Chemicals, he said, were being utilized as part of the development of a new radar system at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Dayton, Ohio.”
Okay….just who is this mysterious Pennsylvania based high tech weapons scientist. What’s his name. Where is the documentation of his work? How does the reporter Mike Blaire know this guy. Did he interview him? What are his sources?
"Considerable effort has been put into chemtrail research by a physicist who has been associated with Brookhaven National Laboratory on Long Island, N.Y. The scientist, with his fellow researchers, has determined that the chemtrails are being created by efforts of the military in at least four major, but separate, projects.”
Again….who is this physicist? What reports has he produced. How did he conduct his research and determine his findings? What is his methodology? What are his credentials? How does the reporter know this information. What are the reporter’s sources. Only the weak-minded just assume because some unknown author makes undocumented claims on the internet…well then it must be true.
“The first project is an effort to block the rays of the sun from hitting the Earth, including ultra-violet radiation that will come through without an adequate layer of ozone in the upper regions above the Earth. In the event of global warming, this, it is hoped, could lower temperatures on the surface of the Earth and block ultra-violet radiation from causing skin cancer in humans. The aerosol being sprayed in this case is probably aluminum oxide or a compound that would have similar properties, and is the only one of the government programs that does not use the barium mixtures.”
Another baseless statement. We’ve already proven that global warming was a hoax perpetrated by the UN that no nation takes seriously. Just ask yourself how many nations besides Romania were willing to sign the Kyoto treaty, and you‘ll get the answer to this. And what does the author of this article mean by the phrase “probably aluminum oxide or a compound that would have similar properties”? Why does he use the word “probably” now? He just got through stating that the compound being sprayed was known and revealed by an anonymous scientist, therefore, he should now for sure what the substance is. This author doesn’t seem to differentiate between conjecture or fact. He makes no distinction between unfounded statements and personal belief, stating everything as if it were proven fact. Well if it’s proven, then show is us the proof!!!!!!! And if it IS proven, he whould have no need to use words like probably.
“This "ducting" problem was solved by releasing an aerosol, a mixture of barium salts into the atmosphere over the United States. Thus, they can make an atmospheric radio frequency "duct" with a base of barium aerosol released from aircraft.”
Oh really? And how does he know this?
“One of the researchers, the physicist from Brookhaven, explained how the process works:”
Oh here’s the answer…one of those anonymous unnamed mystery researchers again…..how convenient!
"It is a project of the AIR Force and utilizes concepts of radio frequency radiation, developed originally by legendary scientist Nikola Tesla, against the ionosphere above the Earth.”
Uh, Uh….I got news for this Bozo….Tesla did not work with radio waves. He left that to his plagiarist friend Marconi. Tesla believed radio waves to be a weak byproduct….as is well documented and can be verified by Tesla’s own writings. Tesla worked with a substance, he called aether…in the Victorian era terminology of the time
“Air Force documents, obtained by the independent researchers, indicate that "the risks are high but the rewards are worth it."
Again…what documents? What researchers? How do we know this quote wasn’t taken out of context…if it actually exists at all?
Well….I could go on at the risk of being extremely boring, but basically the same questions could be asked about this entire bogus report…..I think I’ve made my point. Who will come forth as the first to say the were convinced by this unknown author, (Mike Blaire) with unknown credibility, talking about anonymous un-named research and anonymous reports, produced by anonymous scientists? He doesn’t explain how the scientists determine their findings. He does not provide one scrap of documentation for his statements. He is in effect saying…I expect all you idiots out there to believe me just because I’m making the statements on the Jeff Rense site….so this must be real…. And no doubt, a certain percentage of you readers will just buy all this hook line and sinker without one solitary question.
I hope I’ve been effective in raising those questions…..

This post really doesn't deserve much of a response. Most of it is an attempt to attack the messenger (in typical Cydonaiaquest style) rather than giving honest consideration to the information provided.
Let's try applying his own peculiar brand of logic to the his assertion that "we have proven global warming is a hoax".
Cydoniaquest, who are you and what are your sources? One of your trucker buddies shooting off his mouth on the ole' citizen band?
More two-faced, hypocritical blather from the master who defined the genre. To answer his single legitmate question, the quote "the risks are high but the rewards are worth" it comes from Air Force 2025.

Sorry, Chem11. If we still did science by blindly accepting the statements of "reputable scientists," we would still believe in phlogiston and spontaneous generation.
That's why scientific papers must contain the authors' names, materials and methods, and actual data. Otherwise it's only hearsay.

When Cy responded to Mike Blair's article section by section, he was right to question him. Although I found myself intrigued in The Spotlight's article, I knew that 90% of it was not proven, nor did Blair have any reliable sources to back up what he wrote.
This is what I call "dirty journalism"....and I will say, I love it! One can't get away with this type of writing too often in their career, yet Blair saw the opportunity. Not only does it make readers excited and to want to know more, as it holds no accountablity on the writer, as per who would be the wiser? Being that multiple theories are out and about, who could say Blair is wrong? No one, except someone who is involved and truly does have information. Could this SpotLight article be a trap to "draw" those who know, out? Very possible. Let's keep an open eye.

Researchers assigned to this project have diverse backgrounds and are trained in and associated with a variety of disciplines including electronics, communications and environmental engineering, general medicine, biomedical research, chemistry, government/political, NSA/CIA, and military theory and technology. A team of organized and dedicated professionals has devoted thousands of hours to this project over the past year, and read hundreds of scientific, government and military documents found in the public domain. Individual researchers have conducted in-depth investigation by other means, including direct observation and inquiry.
I've just had an epiphany. Is this how science is done? You find an authority in a particular field and take his/her word for what is fact and what isn't?

I'm going to jump in to say that for almost a year now, I've read almost everything imaginable concerning chemtrails.
Today I have more questions than I did 11 months ago. Bottom line is, I just don't know what to believe. Personally, that's what makes me want to scream.
I do know one thing, however.....I've learned to trust what I see with my two eyes.
And what do I see? Chemtrails...almost everyday. Not to mention the chemdome that is almost constantly over my head.
I can't say for sure why they are doing this.
I don't even know who 'they' are.
I just know that it goes on.
