The following file possibly accounts for the plethora of new
diseases and health problems that seem to have appeared over the
past 30 years. It follows the grave warnings given Walter Russell
in his book ATOMIC SUICIDE. A friend recently told us of the first
ATOMIC explosion which occurred in San Francisco Bay at the Port of
Chicago Naval Station! This has been kept hidden for many years and
the ramifications of the coverup are still being pursued. We hope
to have a file on this on KeelyNet in the near future.

Immune System Defects from Nuclear Bomb Testing
In the 8 February 1992 issue of THE BRITISH MEDICAL JOURNAL, R. K.
Whyte, a Canadian pediatrician, reports some disturbing evidence
from official government sources. Ingested fission products from
nuclear weapons tests conducted in the atmosphere during the 1950s
had caused in excess of 320,000 infant deaths in the United States
and England by 1980.
Whyte shows that the increase in neonatal deaths in those years can
be explained only by exposure to radioactive iodine and strontium
injected into the atmosphere by the superpowers’ early nuclear
testing programmes.
Whyte’s findings validate predictions made in 1958 by the Soviet
physicist Andrei Sakharov and cited in his recently published
MEMOIRS. Sakharov was concerned, however, not only with the
immediate consequences of exposure to low-level radiation but with
the latent effects of that radiation on the immune system, effects
not considered in the Whyte paper.
Sakharov, the most eminent and authoritative nuclear scientist to
reveal the official misgivings about the health consequences of
bomb-testing kept secret by all parties in the arms race, calculated
Page 1
that the tests would ultimately kill millions of people worldwide,
immediately and over time.
Sakharov’s theory offers the first explanation of the great
epidemiological mysteries of our times. The decline in mortality
rates for infants and old people in the USA and the advanced Western
European countries flattened out during the years of atmospheric
bomb tests. There was only a moderate rate of decline after the
partial test-ban treaty was signed in 1963.
In the 1980s both routing and accidental emissions from military and
civilian reactors continued, and mortality rates are again on the
rise in the USA, UK, and France.
According to the UN ANNUAL DEMOGRAPHIC YEARBOOK, in these same
countries the death rate for 25-44 year olds, presumably the
healthiest and most productive component of the labour force, has
been rising since 1983 for the first time since World War II. The
Atlanta Center for Disease Control acknowledged this anomalous trend
among American males.
In the September 1990 issue of THE AMERICAN JOURNAL OF PUBLIC HEALTH
it was admitted that in states with high AIDS mortality rates, there
are “associated” abnormal increases in “other immune defects”,
including septicemia, pneumonia, pulmonary tuberculosis, diseases of
the central nervous system, heart disease, and blood disorders.
Persons in this age group were born between 1945 and 1965. They
were, therefore, most heavily exposed IN UTERO to the latent effects
of bomb-test radiation that most worried Sakharov. The consequent
harm to their developing hormonal and immune systems would emerge
later when, as young adults with impaired immune responses, they
would encounter the new strains of sexually transmitted viruses and
bacteria that Sakharov predicted would also result from radiation-
induced mutation.
Particularly after the Chernobyl disaster, we can no longer continue
to ignore the radiation link to immune-deficiency diseases foreseen
by Sakharov. Sakharov complains that “to the best of my knowledge,
no notice of these publications of mine was taken in the West,
probably because my name was still quite unknown….Although this is
no longer true in my case, the poor use Western journalists make of
their archives and reference works…..still amazes me.”
