US and UK extend talons over Libya – I
by Peter Eyre on 07 Apr 2011 0 Comment
Top British politicians – Margaret Thatcher, John Major, Tony Blair, Gordon Brown and David Cameron – are all guilty of war crimes; they have all authorized the use of Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD) against innocent civilians and our own [British] military forces to a level bordering on mass genocide.

 

Many of the weapons used, especially those used against tanks (armour piercing) and against hard targets (Cruise Missiles & Bunker Busters) all contain uranium components such as Penetrators, Shaped Charged Liners and as a counterweight - most of which is made up of Depleted Uranium.

 

All weapons that contain Depleted Uranium weapons are recognized as radioactive poison gas weapons and thus violate the Geneva Convention under the 1925 Geneva Poison Gas Protocol. These weapons are described as a “highly mobile indiscriminate killer and permanent terrain contaminant,” which has a half life of 4.5 billion years and thus remain in the environment for ever.

[Depleted uranium gas and dust is widely circulated in many directions, depending on altitude and seasonal changes including fog, rainfall, snow, and air circulation].

 

A study of wind patterns over the current conflict zone in Libya shows high concentrations of radioactive particles which will end up in the atmosphere over Scandinavia, UK, Spain, Portugal, France, Holland, Germany, Italy, Greece, Turkey, Rumania, Bulgaria, Eastern and Central Europe. This is similar to the weather system that [in the Iraq and Afghan wars] contaminated the entire Middle East, Afghanistan, Asia and SE Asia with some particles delivered to China, Taiwan, Korea and Japan by express delivery on the Jet Streams, which then moved over to the Northern USA and the rest of the world.

 

We need to emphasize that when it comes to low pressure areas or monsoonal flows, the contamination comes back to earth to permanently contaminate the soil and water in the respective regions. During heavy periods of bombing in areas of conflict in the original US led “Shock and Awe” attack on Baghdad, at the begin of the Gulf War, the atmosphere from Reading through to London received an extremely high dose of radioactive nano-particles that can and will impact on the health of people who live below its deadly cloud. This graph was withheld from public viewing by both the US and UK Governments and was only released after pressure was applied by Prof Chris Busby ( Freedom of Information Act).

 

The current conflict in Libya is a master plan by the New World Order to not only carry out mass depopulation (slow and painful genocide) but also part of the greater plan in their “Geo Political Growth” which only has three main goals:-

-        To take control of the world’s natural resources

-        To take control of the international markets for those resources

-        To take control of the international trade routes, sea lanes and pipeline routes

 

This war initiated by the US, UK and France is in total violation of the UN Constitution, an organization that is supposed to pursue peace and protect all members. The existing UN Security Council is totally out of date with the current world and such decisions should only be made by the UN General Assembly based on a majority vote; the existing system is totally corrupt and certainly controlled by the NWO, which is the international political arm of the NWO and backed up by its Military Arm, NATO.

 

Obama and his “Voice Box” Clinton have tried to portray that this action is not being spearheaded by the USA - absolute crap - they have dictated terms all the way; Clinton has been flying around almost everywhere to get a satisfactory outcome for a “Regime Change” - just as in Iraq!! And this operation is being controlled by the US from their base in Naples.

 

Despite the fact that Germany abstained from voting, for political reasons, Angela Merkel (currently fighting for her political existence) attended the talks in Paris, though she had no right to do so, having abstained. It was obvious that behind closed doors our illustrious Hillary Rodham Clinton needed her valid support to carry out this evil act.

 

It is now clear to me that President Sarkozy, President Obama, Prime Minister Cameron, Chancellor Merkel and their respective governments and MoD’s are all guilty of war crimes - slow genocide.

 

The French have attacked Libyan tanks with armour piercing weapons and for sure these would have contained depleted uranium. At the time of writing [Mar 23], US and UK Naval forces had fired 112 Tomahawk Missiles, which carry around 360kg of depleted uranium in each missile - this makes around 40,320 kg of depleted uranium (112 X 360) that has entered the Libyan and World environment. It is also known that three US B2 Stealth Bombs dropped 40 bombs on a major Libyan air base with additional cruise Missiles fired from other coalition aircraft. One cannot imagine at this stage the total tonnage used in this crime against humanity.

 

Under the terms of the Geneva Convention these weapons fail to comply with the convention, as the nano-particles/aerosols from each weapon do not remain in the target area/battlefield and are at the mercy of the wind to contaminate adjacent areas, countries, the world's environment and its people. Innocent civilians around the target area, region, adjacent countries and the world thus become victims of radiation poisoning from these weapons and the United Nations are aware of this fact.

 

There is concrete evidence available to show that these weapons are totally indiscriminate and create much pain & suffering (I have that evidence). We already have sufficient evidence that shows the terrible effects from such weapons and evidence on the consequences on human health, especially on children and the unborn foetus. Most women who live in such areas succumb to DU ingestion and the loss of their child. As an example in Iraq, most women in the City of Fallujah can no longer have children because of the high risk of premature birth and gross deformities - a direct result of coalition WMDs.

 

The West have to be held to account for the gross contamination of the Balkans, Kuwait, Iraq, Afghanistan, North Pakistan, Lebanon, Gaza, Somalia and now Yemen etc. The appropriate Ministers of Defence and Military Leaders fully understand the implications in the use of these weapons, including our very own Liam Fox, who hopefully one day will be before the international court to account for his own admission in their use.

 

In his letter Liam Fox quoted the following:

-        “I remain very conscious many people are concerned there is a link between the use of DU ammunitions and medical problems such as cancers and birth defects. This is an issue taken very seriously by the Minister of Defence (MOD). The cases of illness reported in places such as Iraq are extremely distressing especially when they affect children.”

 

-        “The UN General Assembly draft resolution you refer calls for action by the Secretary-General and UN member states based on the alleged harmful effects of the use of DU munitions on health and the environment. The UK does not support resolutions that presuppose DU is harmful.”

 

-        “The draft resolution requests states that have used DU in armed conflict to provide information about its use. I hope you will be reassured to know the UK has already provided details of this nature to inform studies and the work of the UN, but it is up to each state to provide data as such in time and in such a manner as it deems appropriate.”

 

-        “The Governments’ policy that DU can be used within weapons; it is not prohibited under the current or likely future international agreements. UK armed forces use DU munitions in accordance with international humanitarian law. It would be quite wrong to deny our serving personnel a legitimate capability.”

 

There you have it, admittance - straight from the horse’s mouth - and proof that its use in past and current conflicts is ongoing. Well Mr. Liam Fox, you certainly have got it all so wrong! As Minister in charge of our armed forces you are now guilty, in your duty of care, of looking after all those who serve our country and who die for it!! You should be tried for treason and for war crimes knowing the truth that lies behind these WMDs, even more so since the Scottish MP, Dr Bill Wilson provided you with sufficient evidence to the contrary.

 

Indeed, Mr Liam Fox responded on his official MoD letterhead to Dr Bill Wilson:

Thank you for your letter of 8 February about the health of Service personnel and civilians exposed to Depleted Uranium (DU), and for the list of reference material.

 

I remain very conscious many people are concerned there is a link between the use of DU ammunition and medical problems such as cancers and birth defects. This is an issue taken very seriously by the Ministry of Defence (MOD). The cases of illness reported in places such as Iraq are extremely distressing especially when they affect children. However, I must stress that DU has not been shown to present the health or environmental risks suggested. None of the inquiries to date, including those quoted in your letter, has documented long-term health or environmental effects attributable to DU munitions.

 

On the basis of reports by the Royal Society and others, the MOD does not consider DU is ‘safe’. It is hazardous (making the accepted health and safety distinction here between a hazard and a risk). As a heavy metal (like lead), and with radioactive properties, DU use, storage, handling, and environmental considerations are governed by the Radioactive Substance Act 1993 and the Ionising Radiation Regulations Act that came into effect on 1 January 2000. These are part of the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 enforced by the Health and Safety Executive.

 

The precautionary principle you advocate is manifest in our approach to managing risk on the balance of likelihood and consequences.

 

On the issue of Service personnel health we have conducted several investigations into the effects of DU. Some 3,400 Service personnel attended the Gulf Veterans’ Medical Assessment Programme under which no evidence of ill-health due to DU exposure has been found.

 

The UN General Assembly draft resolution you refer to calls for action by the Secretary-General and UN member states based on the alleged harmful effects of the use of DU munitions on health and the environment. The UK does not support resolutions that presuppose DU is harmful.

 

The draft resolution requests states that have used DU in armed conflict to provide information about its use. I hope you will be reassured to know the UK has already provided details of this nature to inform studies and the work of the UN, but it is up to each state to provide data at such a time and in such a manner as it deems appropriate.

 

The Government’s policy remains that DU can be used within weapons; it is not prohibited under current or likely future international agreements. UK armed forces use DU munitions in accordance with international humanitarian law. It would be quite wrong to deny our serving personnel a legitimate capability.

 

I hope this information is useful to you

THE RT HON DR LIAM FOX MP

 

It is incredible that Liam Fox has absolutely no idea of what he his committing our forces too, despite all evidence provided to him he maintains a stance that although he his aware of the dangers of DU he refuses to accept the consequences. This man is putting all of our military serving in Afghanistan and now Libya in grave danger of contamination by radiation from our own coalition forces weapons - this adds new dementia to the term “Friendly Fire”!!!

 

An observation I have made since this conflict started was the way the BBC and Sky News allow reporters to enter highly contaminated areas to cover the latest news. We saw reporters standing alongside tanks hit by armour piercing weapons (DU) and also in the Naval Military Facility that had been hit by a cruise missile and many other contaminated locations. This certainly shows their duty of care towards their reporters. [Whilst on the topic of reporters, I have yet to see a balanced report coming out of Libya from the above two companies… it is obvious that once again we see media censorship!!]

 

To continue to use WMD’s having been informed of the dangers constitutes as a war crime and I am sure Liam Fox will be pursued at a later date.

 

Back to in Libya, we can see some fractures appearing in the armour of NATO with the United States wishing to step down as Commander in Chief of this conflict and one can clearly see that no one wants to take the lead. Whoever takes the lead will still have to answer to the US, which very forcibly controls the situation. There is also unrest within the Arab League despite the cover up by our Prime Minister, David Cameron; this has now gone well beyond a No-Fly-Zone and I am sure that when adjacent countries succumb to the contamination from the US/UK/EU weapons they will realize that in offering their initial support for this strike, they themselves have also become victims.

 

It is only a matter of time before another NATO aircraft is downed in Libya as they have no ground troops in situ. The wording of the UN Resolution, that they so carefully manipulated, must certainly be hurting them. The F15E that came down stalled vertically into the ground [It was a USAF F15e Strike Eagle with a tail number of 91-0304 and tail ID of LN; 492nd Fighter Squadron, 48th Fighter Wing, RAF Lakenheath, Suffolk, England]. The aircraft was still carrying some of its weapons load which was an AIM120C missile, the latest Advanced Medium-Range Air-to-Air Missile (AMRAAM) variant and is reprogrammable. The missile was in very good condition; US was very keen to bomb the wreckage to make sure nothing could be recovered.

 

The daily budget for the UK alone is well in access of £2 million and this will rise as the missions continue and back up forces are re-located into the area. What the US, UK and NATO forces are not telling you is the fact that Special Forces are operating behind enemy lines acting as liaison for potential targets and also to assist the rebels in their goals - all activities outside of the UN Resolution remit.

Former Rear Admiral, Chris Parry, commenting on this conflict, stated that there appears to be a lack of longer term planning, beyond the current initial strike, and it is showing signs similar to Iraq … could be a very long term conflict…

 

He was also critical of the additional use of RAF Tornadoes in carrying their own pods of Cruise Missiles all the way down to Libya when there had been sufficient usage of such missiles by naval forces already off the coast of Libya. This suggests a possible political overtone – to allow the government to say the current defence cuts are now not justified based on this on-going conflict!!

 

Yet again the poor taxpayers of this country will suffer. Isn’t it incredible that one missile costs around £300,000 and that when it comes to “Geo Politics” and war there is always enough money in the Bank of England? How do they manage to find around £9 million per week to support this operation? 

 

Don’t they understand the implications of WMD weapons? Let them go to the Balkans and see the after-effects of their actions - the rise in cancers now totally out of control with the young becoming the latest victims… the local graveyards in many hamlets cannot handle the amount of dead …

 

Libya is much closer home, it borders the Mediterranean, and is on the doorstep of Europe. This adds new meaning to going on holiday in and around the Med – now contaminated by the downwind flow from this latest action in Libya. In coming days these radioactive nano particles will drift in several directions; because of the size and width of Libya the winds on the western side will drift in a westerly direction out over the Atlantic and then loop around to the north and then northeast back across the UK, Northern Europe and Scandinavia and beyond. On the east side of Libya, the winds are variable with some tracking southwesterly and also southeasterly before getting pulled into the Middle Eastern systems that normally circulate that region before tracking up over the Caspian Sea and joining the eastern part of Europe, Turkey and back into the Mediterranean countries. Needless to say, the upper winds take other particles from west to east in a sort of washing machine manner.

 

Weapons that contain elements of uranium in any shape or form are Mini Nukes and should be removed from our stockpiles. We in the West must lobby with our local MP’s, Congressmen and leaders by threatening them with a trial in the International Court of Justice for “War Crimes”. Only the sad side of this is that such establishments are controlled by the New World Order and select victims who do not comply with the West’s master plan of “Geo Politics.”

 

I offer my sincere apologies to the innocent victims in Libya on behalf of many citizens in my country who do care and feel your pain. Bless you all.
