Caracas, October 18, 2004—Last Friday, the mayor of Greater Caracas, Alfredo Peña, declared he would not run for reelection in the upcoming October 31 regional vote.  Peña was elected mayor in 2000 on a Chavista platform, only to switch allegiances shortly after taking office.  Peña’s stepping aside means that only one opposition candidate and one pro-Chavez candidate will face each other for the important mayor’s post.

Since the opposition’s defeat in last August’s referendum, both pro- and anti-Chávez candidates have been pushing for a united front.  In many races there are several candidates on each side, threatening to split each side's vote.

On October 31st Venezuela will elect Governors, Mayors, and local councilors for all 24 states, 336 municipalities.  Grassroots activists on both sides have called for primaries to decide the candidates, but both Chavistas and opposition have so far opted for party-to-party negotiations.  With Chávez’ resounding victory in the referendum still fresh, Chavistas hope to capitalize on their momentum in the regionals.

Before renouncing his candidacy, Peña was involved in a heated battle with Acción Democratica (AD) candidate Claudio Fermin.  Fermin repeatedly called on Peña to submit to a primary election, but Peña preempted such an action by stepping down.  Fermin and Peña were the main challengers to Chavista candidate Juan Barreto.  With Peña out of the race, Chavista hopes that Barreto would cruise to an easy victory are gone with him.

Peña has been a thorn in the side of Chavez supporters because his control over the Caracas police force has led to many violent clashes between pro-Chavez demonstrators and the police. Chavistas have accused the police of being responsible for over 40 deaths of Chavez-supporters during the April 2002 coup attempt.

The opposition has been handicapped by divisions with respect to post-referendum strategy.  Late last month the opposition umbrella-group the Democratic Coordinator (CD) imploded as smaller parties rejected the CD’s decision to participate in the regional elections.  Five parties subsequently left the fractious coalition, calling on the populace to engage in “active abstention”; however they are largely viewed as small parties with relatively little popular-support.  The two traditional parties: the social-democratic AD, the social-Christian Copei, and the most influential of the new opposition groups: Primero Justicia (Justice First) will participate.  Yet, much like before the recall referendum last August, all three parties are claiming fraud in advance. 

Peña accused the National Electoral Council (CNE) of preparing a ‘new’ fraud in a statement explaining his reasons for canceling his candidacy.  “They are currently preparing a fraud and they want us to validate it.  They want us to participate in order to baptize their prepared fraud…But, we will not participate in this farce,” declared Peña.

Primero Justicia mayoral candidate for the Municipality of Libertador Liliana Hernandez also renounced her candidacy today.  Hernandez leaves opposition candidate Carlos Melo as the main challenger to incumbent Chavista Freddy Bernal.

The October 31 regional vote could easily become controversial because the Organization of American States joined the Carter Center in declining the electoral council’s invitation to observe the vote. Both have said that the vote was too short notice for them to organize observer missions that could do a comprehensive job. Also, the Carter Center said that it believed its effectiveness at enhancing confidence in the vote is diminished in Venezuela because large parts of the opposition still refuse to accept the recall referendum results that the Carter Center had endorsed.

Scalar Electromagnetic Weapons and their Terrorist Use:

Immediate Strategic Aspects of the Asymmetric War on the U.S.

1.     Cold War Development of Scalar Interferometry

Prior to 1990, our weather over North America was being steadily engineered by the KGB ¾ particularly beginning on July 4, 1976 ¾ using giant strategic scalar interferometers on site in Russia {[i],[ii],[iii],[iv]}. From the beginning of the development program started shortly after WW II, the KGB personally controlled the development of startling new Russian weapons under the Soviet energetics program {[v],[vi],[vii]}. That program was for research and eventual development of highly advanced new superweapons more powerful than the atomic bomb.

The new superweapons were developed, produced, manned, and operated by the KGB itself, and were never placed in the hands of the regular Russian armed forces. Speaking to the Presidium in 1960, Khrushchev referred to the forthcoming scalar interferometer weapons with the following statement:

"We have a new weapon ¾  just within the portfolio of our scientists, so to speak ¾  so powerful that, if unrestrainedly used, it could wipe out all life on earth."

The large Soviet strategic scalar interferometers were deployed and became operational in April 1963 ¾ a bit too late for Khrushchev to use and counter the U.S. confrontation in the Cuban Missile Crisis of latter 1962. However, the first operational weapon was used to destroy the U.S.S. Thresher nuclear submarine underwater and on maneuvers off the East Coast of the United States, in April 1963. Thereby Khrushchev demonstrated the power of his new weapons over one of the major three elements of the strategic military nuclear firepower of the United States. Extension to the other two elements ¾ ICBMs and strategic bombers ¾ was obvious.

2.     Incidents Where Outside Intervention Saved the United States

Many dramatic but largely unheralded incidents occurred during the so-called “Cold War”. For example, in the 1970s a small nation saved us from being totally destroyed by Soviet nuclear weapons which had been inserted in our cities. That nation did it very simply: They also inserted an appreciable number of nuclear weapons of their own inside Russia itself, in its population centers and its primary target zones. Some of them were thermonuclear.

All these inserted nuclear weapons ¾ both in the United States and in Russia ¾ are still there with their activation teams, waiting. In such manner was the “balance of terror” ¾ the Mutual Assured Destruction or MAD doctrine ¾ really implemented and enforced vis a vis the Soviet Union.

In April 1986 a secretive little U. S. group intervened in a forthcoming giant earthquake being built up by the KGB scalar interferometers for the greater Los Angeles and San Francisco areas. Via a special electronic device, the group suddenly destroyed one of the distant Soviet scalar interferometer transmitters ¾ thereby initiating the nearby Chernobyl nuclear incident but preventing the loss of perhaps 200,000 U.S. lives in Los Angeles and San Francisco, together with terrible destruction and economic damage.

Also in 1986, the same friendly little nation again prevented our strategic destruction by even more powerful energetics weapons developed by the Soviet Union. The friendly nation simply began exploding very large Russian missile ammunition storage sites, as a direct warning of what was in store for the Soviet Union if the Soviets attacked.

In 1997, again the U.S. would have been utterly destroyed on two occasions had it not been for the same little nation. Several professional colleagues and I played a desperate role in both those incidents; they were frighteningly real but also totally unreported in the news media. Indeed, our own intelligence agencies had no inkling that a full strategic Soviet superweapon attack to destroy the United States was imminent on each of the occasions (the second of which would have occurred on May 1, 1997) {[viii]}. The May Day for 1997 would have been the “big one”, had the FSB/KGB not been checkmated by “an offer it could not refuse” ¾ delivered once again by the friendly nation. During those critical periods when every hour on the clock seemed a week in length, the hostile armada that would have struck us included the Japanese Yakuza and Aum Shinrikyo teams on site in Russia, operating leased KGB/FSB strategic scalar interferometers against the U.S.

3.     Yakuza Acquisition of Soviet Superweapons

With the collapse of the old Soviet Union’s economy, by the end of 1989 the Russian financial situation was grim. By courtesy of the Russian Mafia {[ix]} which works directly for the FSB/KGB, a rogue Japanese group consisting of the Yakuza {[x]} and Aum Shinrikyo {[xi]} was conducted to Russia in latter 1989, met with the KGB, and leased some of those large KGB strategic scalar interferometers on site in Russia {[xii]}. The down payment was $900 million U.S. in gold bullion, and the lease is rumored to be some $1 billion per year.

The Yakuza and Aum Shinrikyo then assigned teams to man those superweapon sites and begin weather engineering operations against the United States and other targets. The Aum Shinrikyo even set up a small university in Russia where the energetics theory and technology could be taught to the rogue Japanese teams by the KGB scientists.

The rogue Japanese teams underwent extensive training and in 1990 they began operating these large strategic interferometers {[xiii]} worldwide, including performing extensive weather engineering operations, directly under the supervision of the FSB/KGB. The use of the Yakuza and its vast resources worldwide was thus incorporated into the FSB/KGB planning and coordination for the coming destruction of the United States and the Western world.

Much later, Western investigations into the Aum Shinrikyo did clearly establish the sect’s links in Russia, but missed the major involvement of the Yakuza. The Soviets easily made it appear that contact of the Aum Shinrikyo with Russia had been harmless. Quoting Turbiville {[xiv]}:

“Russian, Japanese, and other investigators quickly identified a substantial number of sect [Aum Shinrikyo] members in Russia, including members in the government and other walks of life. Media commentators took note of a 'gas analyzer' of Russian origin seized at a sect facility; reports of Aum Shinrikyo sect members among Russian Radiation, Chemical, and Biological Defenses Troops; alleged sect ties to the Russian Academy of Sciences; the large volume of commercial Russian ship and aircraft traffic between Russia and Japan; and other issues that suggested questionable Russo-Japanese linkages to sarin production or transport... Official Russian military and security service spokesmen, while acknowledging Aum Shinrikyo's presence in Russia, reiterated the absolute security of military chemical depots and munitions..."

So in early 1990, the weather engineering operations over North America were assumed from the FSB/KGB by the Yakuza/Aum Shinrikyo teams, and operations continued with the Yakuza’s leased giant scalar interferometers. The weather engineering against the United States continues today under the rogue Japanese teams on site in Russia, with direct FSB/KGB supervision.

In 2004 we have entered the 2-year “final preparation phase”. These operations have been intensified and will continue to be intense, wreaking great economic damage. Hurricanes Charlie, Frances, Ivan, Jeanne, etc. have been no exception to the Yakuza weather engineering, which included directly influencing and controlling each hurricane’s power and behavior, as well as directing its course and speed so as to choose its targeting path. Indeed, Ivan did a 180 degree turn, and Jeanne did a 360 degree loop before reaching Florida, demonstrating the degree of control available.

Meteorologists do recognize periods of increased or decreased hurricane activity for various reasons{[xv]} , but they do not consider deliberate human induction of hurricanes or human control over their direction, power, and progress.

Indeed, in latter March of 2004, Hurricane Catarina ¾ the first-ever recorded hurricane in the South Atlantic ¾ formed and came ashore in Brazil on March 28 with 90 mph winds, doing substantial damage. So while the conventional wisdom is that hurricanes cannot form (naturally) in the South Atlantic; this one did and “broke all the records”. It appears to have been a “deliberate probe” by the Yakuza: Produce and drive ashore a hurricane where the textbooks state one is impossible, to test whether Western governments and scientists recognize the artificial weather engineering. The answer, of course, is that ¾ as expected ¾ the West did not recognize its importance, or that it was a deliberate “stimulus.” Western meteorologists and governments simply shrugged off Hurricane Catarina as an interesting little phenomenon but of no great concern.

After leasing the KGB/FSB scalar interferometers on site in Russia at the end of 1989, the Yakuza later carried the scalar electromagnetics (energetics) technology and science for such interferometry back to Japan. There they set up their own clandestine facilities to manufacture such weapons, including small portable scalar interferometers, EMP weapons, and possibly even negative energy EMP weapons.

Selected portable weapons of such types are to be inserted ¾ probably some have already been inserted ¾ into the U.S. and used internally by the Yakuza in its coming destruction of our centralized electrical power system. With the final coup de grace to be delivered about two years from now, the loss of our national electrical power system is intended to evoke the catastrophic collapse of the entire U.S. economy, followed by the fall of other Western nations’ economies like toppling dominoes.

The problem is this: The U.S. Government, scientific community, intelligence community, and electrical power industry seem totally incapable of confronting the desperate requirement to replace our entire centralized electrical power system with fuel-free self-powering “energy from the vacuum” (EFTV) systems, as rapidly as is humanly possible. Mere mention of such a requirement engenders psychological displacement activity and denial. Hence the U.S. continues its “energy business as usual”, while the clock ticks away to our destruction.

4.     Our Desperate Need to Correct the Seriously Flawed Classical Electromagnetics (CEM) and Electrical Engineering (EE) Models

In the past we have used the phrase “scalar electromagnetics” and “scalar interferometry” {13} to describe the longitudinal EM wave transmitters used in these interferometer weapons. Tesla did not originate the term, nor did he originate scalar interferometry, although he had indeed stumbled onto longitudinal EM waves and what can only be called force-free precursor engineering {[xvi]}. Quoting Tesla {[xvii]}:

"...I showed that the universal medium is a gaseous body in which only longitudinal pulses can be propagated, involving alternating compressions and expansions similar to those produced by sound waves in the air. Thus, a wireless transmitter does not emit Hertz waves which are a myth, but sound waves in the ether, behaving in every respect like those in the air, except that, owing to the great elastic force and extremely small density of the medium, their speed is that of light.”

If one replaces the words “gaseous body” with the modern term “virtual particle flux (active virtual state gas) of the vacuum”, one sees Tesla’s words in agreement with the basic view of the modern active vacuum. Discovery of EM longitudinal waves ¾ which actually comprise all normal EM waves, fields, and potentials {[xviii],[xix]} ¾ leads to a much more fundamental electrodynamics, including sophisticated altering of ordinary EM waves, potentials, and fields to contain hidden internal Whittaker field vectors and their dynamics.

The energy density of the vacuum energy comprises an enormously powerful “scalar potential of the vacuum/spacetime”. As such, this potential (i.e., the vacuum energy flux and Einstein’s 4-space itself) decomposes into Whittaker harmonic sets of bidirectional EM longitudinal phase conjugate wavepairs {18}.The Western classical force-field electrodynamics is a lower group symmetry electrodynamics ¾ i.e., U(1) symmetry EM ¾ which in turn is totally “engineerable from its very beginning” and from its inside out, by an EM of sufficiently higher group symmetry.

Our scientists, engineers, and thermodynamicists have largely failed to grasp the implications of the gauge freedom axiom once asymmetrical regauging is used rather than symmetrical regauging. The first requirement for EFTV systems producing more energy output than the operator alone inputs, is to violate the invariance of the theoretical equations and thus break Lorentz symmetry as well[1]. Further, when one deals with the force-free EM field, potential, and wave as it exists in mass-free space, one does not have to “pay” to furnish the energy necessary to develop powerful working forces a priori. Instead, one only has to deliberately direct nature’s own energy flows, exhibited by the internal Whittaker composition of any EM “static” potential, field, or wave in space. Force is an ongoing effect of a more primary ongoing interaction, not a fundamental cause. By asymmetrically directing the free Whittaker EM energy flows from almost freely established “static” fields and potentials, forces in charged matter can in theory be generated to almost any strength and in any pattern set, including with a chosen internal dynamics.

This is the ultimate “far from equilibrium” thermodynamics approach. In such manner, one uses negative entropy engineering, in total violation of the present flawed Second Law of thermodynamics {[xx]}.

There are no “integrated (observable) forces” in space, since force and force fields exist only in matter. Our fundamental mechanics greatly errs in assuming a separate force in mass-free space, acting upon a separate mass. No such “separate force in mass-free space” exists, or can exist, since mass is a component of force by F º d/dt(mv). No mass, no force. As Nobelist Feynman stated:

"Everything we know is only some kind of approximation, therefore, things must be learned only to be unlearned again or, more likely, corrected."

Speaking about force, Feynman stated {[xxi]}:

"…in dealing with force the tacit assumption is always made that the force is equal to zero unless some physical body is present… One of the most important characteristics of force is that it has a material origin…"  “If you insist on a precise definition of force, you will never get it!”

So then what kind of electromagnetics exists in force-free space, prior to the presence of mass and thus prior to the formation of forces and force fields assumed by the present CEM/EE? Speaking of the electric field in space from a source positive charge, and the responses of charged masses placed in that field and interacting with it, Feynman stated {[xxii]}:

"…the existence of the positive charge, in some sense, distorts, or creates a "condition" in space, so that when we put the negative charge in, it feels a force. This potentiality for producing a force is called an electric field."

What basically exists in mass-free (nonintegrated) spacetime is the disintegrated and disordered virtual particle flux (VPF) of the vacuum. All the energy is virtual state energy and we may state that the basic “enormous” vacuum energy ¾ if it were coherently integrated ¾ is disintegrated into very tiny virtual bits of energy. An EM field, or potential, or wave in vacuum (in empty space) is actually an organization (ordering) and dynamics imposed upon and in the basic disordered VPF and virtual energy. The fundamental field or potential is thus an “organizing pattern” and must already include negative entropy (to reorder the disordered virtual energy of the vacuum) a priori {[xxiii]}.

Any persisting (pattern) EM change (organization) in a region of the VPF ¾ once it interacts with observable charged matter ¾ can be and is integrated to observable (quantum) level, producing force and force fields in the interacting charged matter.

There is no observable force a priori until a pattern of virtual change in a region of the vacuum is reacting with observable matter and being integrated to observable quantum level in that interaction. We have explained that integration process elsewhere {23,[xxiv]}, as demonstrated by every charge in the universe.

5.     How the Notion of Transverse EM Waves in Space Originated

To explain longitudinal EM waves in the vacuum, and also to explain their detection as transverse waves in a receiving conductor {[xxv]}, one merely points out the known severe longitudinal flow restraint on the Drude electrons in a conductor. While the electrons in the Drude gas may individually move at greater velocity, their net flow longitudinally down the conductor is the drift velocity {[xxvi]} and it is usually on the order of a few centimeters per second in a typical bench circuit with small voltages and currents {[xxvii]}. The electron longitudinal velocity down the conductor is very much less than the speed of the field or potential down the wire. Hence there exists a very effective gyroscopic restraint of the electron’s spinning gyro axes in the longitudinal or “current flow” direction.

The Drude electrons ¾ due to their continuous spin ¾ act as gyros with longitudinally restrained axes, when the longitudinal EM force kindles (integrates) upon them from the vacuum precursor (force free) field interaction. The longitudinally restrained Drude electron occasionally slips a bit longitudinally, but it is immensely freer to move transversely. So it easily precesses laterally, and the lateral motions can be very large and/or very fast indeed. The intense lateral precession of the “Drude electron as a gyro” quite well demonstrates the longitudinal nature of the causative disturbing precursor agent, with the longitudinal impulse force strongly resisted by the longitudinal restraint force, and with most of the electron’s effect force being the resulting gyro-electron precession force at right angles.

Even for electrons in empty space, their inertia together with their spin results in a similar much larger precession at right angles to the disturbing force created upon them by the precursor force-free fields and waves.

The observation of the “lateral electron precession waves” of these precessing Drude electrons in our instruments is the accepted “measurement” of the so-called “transverse EM waves in vacuum”. The measurement does not measure the oscillation direction of the causative precursor EM wave in vacuum at all, but only its oscillation effect created in the Drude electron charged matter. There are really no transverse EM waves in mass-free space, albeit we seem to be stuck with such a model since the founders of classical electrodynamics assumed the material ether filling all space, and thus used matter waves (force field waves) in space in their modeling. If there were such a material ether, then there would be matter at every point in space, and there would indeed be transverse charge precession EM waves in this “ethereal but real matter” filling all space. The continued implicit assumption of a material ether, and the continuing erroneous misinterpretation of what our measurement instruments are measuring, has been erroneously propagated to the present day in electrodynamics since at least 1865. Yet the material ether has been falsified for more than a century, since 1887. The false assumption of the material ether and the resulting false assumption of the transverse EM force field wave in space continues even after Drude’s fundamental work.

To my knowledge, no other Western analyst has pointed out the connection between longitudinal restraint of the Drude electrons to a slow drift velocity, with the restrained electron’s lateral precession in such a case. So we argue that the Drude electron precession proves that the EM waves in matter-free space are longitudinal rather than transverse, precisely as Tesla stated. We pointed out this anomaly in the erroneous “force in empty space” theory for years, to little avail. The Soviets weaponized it.

6.     CEM and EE Still Erroneously Assume the Old Material Ether

The misinterpretation of the detected transverse EM force field waves as actual force-field waves in a material space has been perpetuated erroneously in classical electrodynamics since its inception, and it continues today. The entire U.S. scientific apparatus ¾ including the National Academy of Sciences, National Science Foundation, Department of Energy, national laboratories, and universities ¾ continues to bury its head firmly in the sand, covering itself with the old luminiferous material ether.

Those measured waves in our measuring instruments really are transverse EM force field effect waves in and of the interacting Drude electron material medium in the conductors of the intercepting instrument. But the causative interacting EM field entities in the vacuum are themselves force-free longitudinal EM wave disturbances of the curvature of spacetime (general relativity view) and of the local VPF of the vacuum (particle physics view). Else the theory of gyro precession is voided by every Drude electron and by every transverse EM force field wave detection in Drude electron gases.

The EM force fields so blithely assumed by our present electrodynamics absolutely do not and cannot exist in mass-free space, since force only exists in a mass system in and during its ongoing interaction with the force-free precursor fields. The elemental responses of the charged mass system are
