“We knew the world would not be the same. A few people laughed… A few people cried… Most people were silent. I remembered the line from the Hindu scripture the Bhagavad Gita; Vishnu is trying to persuade the prince that he should do his duty, and to impress him takes on his multi-armed form, and says, “Now I am become death, the destroyer of worlds.” ~J. Robert Oppenheimer describing the initial reactions to the first nuclear bomb explosion
By Catherine Austin Fitts
Yesterday as I drove 500 miles across Texas and Arkansas on Interstates 30 and 40 to Tennessee, I listened to a history of US nuclear testing in Nevada.
The environmental risks that have been taken are mindboggling. Why would the United States intentionally risk destroying the ionosphere?
For the first time, I seriously contemplated that the reason that the Europeans have a space probe searching for habitable planets and the US has been building underground bases and leading a global spraying program is because nuclear tests have seriously threatened or destroyed the planet’s atmosphere.
Maybe the reason for the secrecy is if humans knew the truth, it would be impossible without extreme measures to ensure the safety of the leadership and their families. Maybe the reason for the ET stories at Area 51 is entertaining air cover up for the nuclear secrets emerging at the Nevada Test Site.
Recommendations for the best books on the history of nuclear testing and the scientifically proven impact on the planet are most welcome.
