Following is an article published today in the Israeli daily Maariv newspaper.
 

NEW RESEARCH WILL EXAMINE THE EFFECTIVENESS OF MARIJUANA IN NERVE GAS
EXPOSURE - Dan Even, Maariv, October 11, 2002

Imagine yourself a scenario whereby you were unlucky enough to be in Tel Aviv
at the time when a chemical attack is launched from Iraq. Teams from the
civil command race through the darkened streets, tearing through the silence
with blazing sirens, but, surprisingly, inside the homes of the residents of
the city there is a peaceful atmosphere accompanied by a sweet and forbidden
scent. On the TV screens appears the face of the Military spokesperson, the
national Valium, a clone of the mythological Nachman Shai (IDF spokesperson
during The Gulf War) and suggest that all worried citizens have a glass of
water. Immediately after, the search and analysis teams of the civil command
identify traces of chemical weapons at the place of impact, and the
spokesperson instructs the citizens to activate the antidote, only that this
time it is not an automatic injection of Atropine to the thigh, but rather
lighting up of a marijuana filled cigarette, a joint, rolled and handed out
by special teams of the civil command from confiscated dope seized by the
Police and stored in a secluded warehouse.
"Take a toke" says the spokesperson with an authoritative tone, "the active
ingredient will neutralize the effect of the gas, there is no need to be
alarmed from a light sense of floating and an accompanied sense of hunger,
these will pass within a maximum of two hours."

Sounds sci-fi? completely impossible in our reality? Not according to Boaz
Wachtel, chairman of the Green Leaf Party who confronted the Ministry of
Health and the Army with information supporting the claim that Marijuana
protects from nerve gas, but has yet to receive any response. With his help a
new research will soon be launched by a scientist in a governmental
laboratory in an unspecified European country, to examine the possible effect
of marijuana as a protection from the gas. The research has already received
approval from the Helsinki committee. "It appears that they prefer people to
be sober and dead than high and alive", Wachtel protests. "From a scientific
point of view, there is support for the fact that smoked marijuana can help
survival and reduce brain damage and prevent nausea and vomiting as a result
of exposure to nerve gas. With this new research we hope to have results
before the onset of the war so as to provide maximum protection from nerve
gas wit marijuana."
Evaporating nerve gas, for which we know the Atropine as a protection, are
the Tabun, the Sarin, GB, GF, VX and the "Soman" known as GD. The Soman is
considered a sever threat in professional publications due to the fact that
the raw materials for its manufacture are easy to find. The gas causes death
after sensitive neural centers in the brain are exposed to it.
In a research conducted by a group of researchers from the Chemical Warfare
Institute of the US Army, headed by Dr. Margaret Philbert, rats were exposed
to Soman and then were injected with a substance called HU-211. HU - 211 is
an acronym for Hebrew University 211 also known as Dexanabinol. It is a
synthetic canabinoid mirroring the effects of THC, the active ingredient in
the marijuana (Cannabis) but without any psychoactive effect, due to the fact
that it does not connect to the Cannabinoid receptors in the brain.
The substance was developed by Prof. Rafael Meshoulam from the Hebrew
University, an internationally acclaimed researcher specializing in
cannabinoid chemistry. In 1992, Pharmos, an Israeli, Rehovot based company
purchased an exclusive license to develop and sell the substance for all
uses. Among others, the company supplied the US Army with HU-211.
In an experiment conducted by the US Army, the substance was injected into
rats. The injection was administered 5 minutes after the onset of symptoms.
It did not stop the convulsions due to gas exposure, but it did reduce brain
damage by a staggering 86%. Administering HU-211 40 minutes after exposure
reduced brain damage by 81.5%. The conclusion was that the HU-211, which
mirrors the effect of marijuana, provides a defense shield for the brain
during gas exposure but does not protect from epileptic like fits associated
with exposure.
In a rare step, the US Army applied and received a special patent for use of
the substance as a treatment for nerve gas. Now it appears that the patent
was registered without prior knowledge or consent from Pharmos, who has
requested the US Army to withdraw the registration. "We informed them that
the patent should be shared by Israel and Pharmos" says Cynthia Webb, patent
clerk at Pharmos.
The success of the US Army brought about interest in HU-211 also from the
Israeli Ministry of Defence. "Due to the assumption that it has a possible
use also in unconventional warfare, negotiations were held with Pharmos to
examine possible cooperation, but the company has a condition to handing over
the substance that the Ministry of Defense does not accept. Contact continues
with intention to reach an agreement", said the spokeswoman for the Ministry
of Defence, Rachel Nidak-Ashkenazi.
At the same time, Pharmos is examining the effect of HU-211 on traffic
related head trauma. They have shown that HU-211 is effective in stopping
nerve damage, and improving basic skills of though and movement in animals
suffering from brain damage. The research is in an advanced, phase III, stage
in a number of medical centers in Israel and the world. "If it was possible
to administer the substance in the ambulance the results would be
substantially better, but with current restrictions it is only administered 6
hours after the brain trauma", says Prof. Meshoulam.
The results of the US Army research brought about the initiative on the part
of Wachtel and the Green Leaf Party. Wachtel, who served in the past in the
Israel Defence Force attache in Washington D.C., recently succeeding in
obtaining the necessary approvals for a pioneering research that will check
the effects of Soman nerve gas and rats exposed to marijuana smoke.
Expectations are that similarly to exposure to HU-211, so marijuana smoke
protects from nerve gas.
"Cannabinoids (including marijuana) succeed in protecting from the
irreversible damage caused by Soman exposure, thus shielding form the toxic
effect without any side effects except for psychoactive ones: a sense of
elation and spiritual release for a short time", it was written in the
research proposal. In the first stage the survival of rats exposed to
marijuana and Soman gas will be compared to rats exposed to Soman alone. In
the second stage brain damage in both groups will be studied. The research
will begin within the next few weeks. If it appears that exposure to natural
marijuana smoke has a similar effect to that of HU-211 in nerve gas exposure
then these are revolutionary findings. This is due to the fact that
researchers claim that marijuana is healthier, more accessible, cheaper and
easier to administer then atropine, which is today the main defense in both
civil and military systems. The Green Leaf Party is demanding that the
Government of Israel begin immediately with experiments to examine the effect
of marijuana against nerve gas", declares Wachtel

THE RIGHT TO FEEL BETTER

medical marijuana cooperative, and seen it attacked by John Ashcroft
- -- offers some advice

USM/Portland campus, October 25. Call (207) 780-4289.

The medical marijuana debate is one I've always had a difficult time
wrapping my head around. It seems, a priori , to be a non-issue. How
is it possible that the government has no problem with doctors
prescribing powerful drugs like percocet, vicodan, oxycontin, and
morphine for folks to take home, but objects to doctors granting
permission for very sick patients to grow and smoke a little dope --
even after states vote to allow it?

                     Federal logic has gone to pot
                                           
Mysteries and guidelines

October 17, 2002

Steve McWilliams, the medical marijuana activist, is more
provocateur than politician. The San Diegan has smoked a pile of
prescription pot - sometimes on City Hall's steps.

So perhaps his judgment has been dulled by doobies.

But what's the Bush administration's excuse for its contradictory
reasoning? While running for president, then-Gov. Bush was asked
about medical marijuana. "I believe each state can choose that decision
as they so choose," he said.

California, then, would appear to be Bush's Exhibit A. In 1996, the
voters overwhelmingly approved Proposition 215, clearing the way for
doctors to prescribe pot.

Last Friday, though, McWilliams was arrested for growing marijuana
for patients.

"The DEA is not singling these people out," Donald Thornhill Jr., a
DEA spokesman, told the Union-Tribune's Jeff McDonald and Marisa
Taylor. "We're just enforcing the law."

Would that be the state law that Candidate Bush said should govern this
issue? Or the federal law that President Bush now insists is paramount?

If Proposition 215 runs afoul of federal statutes, it also violates
common sense. While it clearly intended to allow patients the right to
possess and use marijuana, the law raised more questions than the first
chapter of an Agatha Christie mystery.

Where were these ailing people supposed to shop for marijuana?

How much could they possess?

Oh, and by the way, who should receive an Rx for THC? Soon after
Proposition 215's passage, McWilliams showed me his list of
pot-worthy ailments. As I recall, it ranged from cancer - marijuana has
been used to ease the nausea that accompanies chemotherapy - to
"bad day at work."

Last year, San Diego established a task force to answer these questions.
This body includes doctors, lawyers and cancer survivors. For awhile it
included McWilliams, but he resigned this summer.

"This was his issue," said Juliana Humphrey, a lawyer and the task
force's chair. "But once he got into a government arena, Steve didn't
know what to do."

If the task force was similarly confused, it found its way - slowly.
Members paused often to consult with the City Attorney's Office and
members of the Police Department's narcotics unit. Yesterday, all
these deliberations resulted in a series of recommendations, delivered
to a City Council subcommittee.

But why bother if Washington is determined to declare Proposition 215
null and local implementation void?

"I think this makes it even more important that we have guidelines,"
Humphrey said. "Our residents need to know where our police and our
city government stand."

Making a federal case

Although McWilliams left the task force, his cooperative still followed
that group's recommendations. His was a small operation of roughly 25
plants. Surely, no one would make a federal case over it.

Wrong. The feds exhumed a 1999 case, in which police seized 448
plants from McWilliams' cooperative. Local prosecutors, no doubt
aware of Proposition 215's inherent contradictions, had declined to
prosecute.

The feds, though, seized on that '99 bust to threaten McWilliams with a
minimum five-year prison t erm. This isn't about justice; it's about
muzzling an advocate.

"This guy is violating the law, and he's flaunting it," the DEA's
Thornhill said. "He brought this whole thing on himself."

This, from an administration that claims to support states' rights. If
McWilliams was so confused, I'd chalk it up to too many joints. But
what are the feds smoking?

POT USE BRINGS RED TAPE

User Of Medical Marijuana Can't Regain His Driver's License

Eleven years ago, Clarence Johnson was convicted of drunken driving.

It was his last rub with the law, he said, and he hasn't had a driver's
license since.

Now, to help his wife's business, he's trying to get behind the wheel
again. The state Department of Motor Vehicles first requires counseling so
he started the 18-month program last spring with Community Recovery
Resources in Grass Valley.

His problems began early on, he said, after he disclosed that he had a
medical marijuana recommendation. He smokes at least a joint a day, usually
before bed, to combat back pain, arthritis and pain from a crushed ankle.

ATTEMPTED THEFT OF MARIJUANA PLANTS TIED TO SHOOTING

The Sunday night shooting of a registered medical marijuana user was
triggered by an attempt to steal plants the victim was legally growing on
property near Amity, sheriff's detective Jack Crabtree confirmed late Thursday.

Michael Castilleja, 32, 10955 S.E. Starr Quarry Road, was shot several
times about 11:30 p.m., Crabtree said. He was investigating a suspected
break-in at a greenhouse where he had six large marijuana plants growing,
and he surprised two armed intruders, according to the detective.

Castilleja was flown by Life Flight helicopter to Legacy Emanuel Hospital
in Portland. His condition was rated critical originally, but was later
upgraded to serious and is now considered fair, according to a hospital
spokesman.

This wasn't Castilleja's first run-in with would-be marijuana thieves. On
Sept.

Why the CIA Thinks Bush is Wrong
Neil Mackay
Sunday Herald
Sunday, 13 October, 2002
The president says the US has to act now against Iraq. The trouble is, his own security services don't agree. reports
GEORGE Bush was about to be hoist by his own petard. It was Monday last week, and the president was glad-handing with the great and the good at the Cincinnati Museum Centre in Ohio as he waited to give one of his most bellicose speeches yet.
In the audience were Ohio state governor Bob Taft and a host of business and political luminaries. As the deadline approached for the Senate and House of Representatives vote on whether or not to give Bush the backing he wanted to attack Iraq, this speech was to be the president's final flourish in the propaganda war to get the US marching in line behind him.
Calling Saddam Hussein a 'murderous tyrant', he made it clear why America had to finish off the Iraqi dictator. 'Facing clear evidence of peril,' he told the audience, 'we cannot wait for the final proof -- the smoking gun -- that could come in the form of a mushroom cloud.' He went on: 'We have every reason to assume the worst and we have an urgent duty to prevent the worst from happening.'
What Bush could not have guessed was that his claims that Iraq was intent on attacking the USA had already began to unravel. The denouement started a few days before, on Thursday, October 3, when Senator Bob Graham, chair of the Senate intelligence committee, metaphorically donned his hob-nailed boots and began delivering some well-aimed kicks to the head of George Tenet, the director of the CIA. The CIA, Graham said, were monkeying with democracy. The agency was not telling his committee what they needed to know about the Iraqi regime. Tenet was damaging the ability of Congress to assess the need for military action.
With one week until Congress voted on authorising Bush to use force, Graham was impatient. These are serious times, he said , and he needed serious answers. Graham and the committee had received an anodyne intelligence report from the CIA on the threat posed by Iraq the day before -- Wednesday, October 2. This, however, answered none of the questions the Senate committee wanted answered: would Saddam use weapons of mass destruction (WMD); how would his regime react if attacked; and what would be the consequences of war?
On October 9, almost a week after Tenet received his whipping at the hands of Graham, the senator's hardman approach paid off when the director of the CIA admitted that the only reason Saddam would use WMDs against the United States was if he was backed into a corner -- due to a strike by the American military -- and realised he was about to fall. Saddam, Tenet was saying, would only become the nightmare that Bush envisaged, if Bush attacked him first. Within two days, then, of Bush's flag-waving call to arms, his most senior intelligence officer had pulled the rug from under the biggest project of his presidency.
Tenet's admission left Bush in disarray with revelations making it appear as if the president was exaggerating the threat from Iraq, to say the least. Tenet, a loyal subject of the Bush administration, had no option but to come clean -- no matter how difficult a position it put the president in.
The CIA director's hands were tied on October 3 by Senator Graham, a democrat who represents Florida, when he told the CIA it was acting 'unacceptably', and added: 'We're trying to carry out a very important responsibility, and given the nature of this classified information, we are the only means by which the intelligence community can communicate to the legislative branch of government.'
There was no way that Tenet could play fast and loose with the Senate. Both the FBI and CIA have been attacked repeatedly in Congressional hearings since September 11 for a series of intelligence cock-ups.
Later on October 3, after Graham met with Tenet, his mood had changed -- Graham seemed to be cooler, calmer. He said the meeting had been frank and candid. What Graham wanted was a flavour of the classified National Intelligence Estimates, prepared by the National Intelligence Council, whose analysts report directly to Tenet. On Monday, October 7, around the time Bush was in Ohio cheerleading for war , Graham received just what he had been looking for -- it came in the shape of a letter from the CIA director. It made astonishing reading. Two days later, on Wednesday, October 9, the Senate intelligence committee voted to make the full text of Tenet's letter public.
Tenet's letter said he was declassifying selected material to help the Senate's deliberations on whether or not to support the president over attacking Iraq. 'Baghdad, for now, appears to be drawing a line short of conducting terrorist attacks with conventional or CBW (chemical and biological weapons) against the United States,' the declassified material read.
'Should Saddam conclude that a US-led attack could no longer be deterred, he probably would become much less constrained in adopting terrorist actions. Such terrorism might involve conventional means ... or CBW.
'Saddam might decide that the extreme step of assisting Islamist terrorists in conducting a WMD attack against the US would be his last chance to exact vengeance by taking a large number of victims with him.'
Tenet went on to declassify formerly secret evidence given at a closed hearing of the Senate's intelligence committee in which democrat Carl Levin, was told by a 'senior intelligence witness' that the 'probability ... would be low' of Saddam initiating a WMD attack. The agent also said the chances were 'pretty high' that Saddam would launch a WMD attack 'if we initiate an attack and he thought he was in extremis'. Tenet's revelations left the entire basis of Bush's call to arms in ruins, and the CIA director swiftly became an embarrassment to the president as the propaganda war backfired . Tenet was not deliberately trying to undermine Bush -- he was simply forced into a corner by the Senate and compelled to reveal his true understanding of the Iraqi crisis.
Kenneth M Pollack, who worked as a military analyst at the CIA before serving as a top aide on Persian Gulf affairs on President Clinton's National Security Council, said: 'The agency line is that it is basically unlikely that Iraq would give WMDs to terrorists under most circumstances. The Bush administration is trying to make the case that Iraq might try to give WMDs to al-Qaeda under certain circumstances. But what the agency is saying is that Saddam is likely to give such weapons to terrorists only under extreme circumstances when he believes he is likely to be toppled.'
The White House tried to put a different spin on the Tenet letter. Sean McCormack, the White House National Security Council spokesman, said the portions of the letter released by Graham gave a misleading impression of the CIA's overall conclusion. 'There were parts of the Tenet letter that weren't read in,' he said. Other parts were 'taken out of context', he said. However, Graham's spokesman, Paul Anderson, denied there had been any misquoting, and the full document, which the Senate committee has released, supports Anderson's line.
Lee Hamilton, the former chairman of the House of Representatives Intelligence Committee, added pointedly: 'It's an overwhelming temptation to manipulate intelligence to serve policy and, to some extent, I think that's what's happening here with Iraq.'
Tenet did, however, leave the Bush conspiracists something to cling to. In his letter to Graham, he played up the alleged links between al-Qaeda and Iraq, saying: 'We have solid reporting of senior level contacts between Iraq and al-Qaeda going back a decade.
Credible information indicates that Iraq and al-Qaeda have discussed safe haven and reciprocal non-aggression ... we have solid evidence of the presence in Iraq of al-Qaeda members ... we have credible reporting that al-Qaeda leaders sought contacts in Iraq, who could help them acquire WMD capabilities ... Iraq has provided training to al-Qaeda members in areas of poisons and gases and making conventional bombs.'
This was not a smoking gun, but it kept suspicions alive that Iraq might just pass terrorists WMDs any day now. Tenet's tentative connection between Iraq and al-Qaeda is a far cry from the findings of his counterparts in Europe. Try as it might, the UK has been unable to produce any evidence clearly linking Saddam to bin Laden, and the French have positively ruled out any connection. Jean-Louis Bruguire, France's leading terrorist investigator, says years of investigation into radical Islamic terror groups have not produced a trace of evidence linking them to Iraq.
Bruguire is an investigative magistrate empowered to view French domestic and foreign intelligence material. Much of the material he sees is passed on to the CIA and FBI by French intelligence. He says: 'We have not found any link between al-Qaeda and Iraq. Not a trace. There is no foundation to our investigations for the information given by the Americans.'
The French believe the secular nature of Saddam's regime deters him from getting into bed with the likes of bin Laden. It also makes cosying up to Saddam an anathema to the fundamentalists of al-Qaeda. Despite the admissions in the Tenet letter, the Senate voted 77-23 in the early hours of last Friday morning to authorise Bush to use force against Iraq. Earlier, the House of Representatives had voted the same way by a margin of 296-133.
It seems that most of the Senate listened to the US Defence Secretary Donald Rumsfeld's reply to claims that the White House was exaggerating the Iraqi threat.
'Each of us has a solemn responsibility,' he said, 'to do everything in our power to ensure that, when the history of this period is written, the books won't ask why we slept.'
The doubts of the intelligence community were washed away against such patriotic phrase-making. It should be noted, however, that a few senators listened to Tenet's admissions and voted 'no'. Among them was Senator Bob Graham.

Feeling Antigravity's Pull
Can NASA stop the apple from falling on Newton's head?
By Adam Rogers
Posted Friday, October 18, 2002, at 8:30 AM PT

"Don't call it antigravity research," Ron Koczor pleads. He's a physicist at NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Ala., and he's talking about a project he's been working on for almost a decade. "Call it 'gravity modification.' 'Gravity anomalies.' Anything but antigravity. That's a red flag."

When people find out that the National Aeronautics and Space Administration has researchers working on sci-fi stuff like antigravity—or rather, "gravity modification"—the red flags do indeed start waving. Reputable scientists like Koczor earn polite disdain from colleagues (or worse, from funders of research). But truth's truth: NASA has been studying the manipulation of gravity for at least 10 years, as have nongovernment researchers.

NASA began its work after a Russian physicist named Evgeny Podkletnov published an article in the peer-reviewed journal Physica C in 1992. Podkletnov claimed that a device built around a superconductor and a magnet could shield an object from gravity. The trick, he said, was to make a superconducting disc about a foot in diameter, chill it, levitate it over magnets—a nifty property of superconductors is that they repel magnetic fields—and set it revolving like a compact disc. Podkletnov said an object placed above that contraption lost 0.3 percent of its weight. The object itself didn't change. Rather, gravity's effect on it lessened.

If that effect could be harnessed and strengthened, the aerospace industry would be upended. Vessels bound for space wouldn't have to ride atop massive, barely controlled explosions. All the energy human beings expend moving things around, from cargo to cars, could be reduced or eliminated. And post-Einsteinian physics would have to be rewritten to explain what the hell was going on. Podkletnov called the effect "gravitational force shielding," and even in the absence of a good theory to explain the phenomenon, other researchers took notice. "Because his experiment and results were published in a peer-reviewed, scientific journal, that gave it a level of credibility," Koczor says.

After Podkletnov published his article, it took NASA until 1999 to figure out how to make a large, thin superconducting disc. Ceramic high-temperature superconductors are brittle as cheap china, and the discs kept shattering. Once they solved that problem, NASA paid Columbus, Ohio-based SCI Engineered Materials $650,000 to build the entire apparatus. But Podkletnov had called for a disc with two layers, one superconducting and one not, and SCI didn't solve that engineering challenge until last year. Then they hit another roadblock. The disc wouldn't spin. SCI engineers stuck a rotor through the disc's center to turn it mechanically, but Podkletnov specified 5,000 revolutions per minute. SCI's device barely pulls 30 rpm.

Why not just ask Podkletnov how to build the thing? SCI brought him over to consult a couple of years ago, to little avail. "His excuse basically was that he was a ceramics physicist, not an electrical or mechanical engineer, and other people built the device for him," Koczor says. "Draw your own conclusions. All I know is, if I were a principal investigator on something like this, I would know the size and thread-depth of every screw in the damn thing. But you know, the Europeans and the Russians, they're different. They're much more, 'this is your job and this is my job.' So it's plausible that he didn't know the details." It might not matter. SCI's contract is ending, and Koczor's budget to explore "way-out physics" is spent. He hasn't got the money to actually test the device even if it did meet Podkletnov's specs.

But researchers outside NASA are working on the problem, too. This summer Nick Cook, a writer for Jane's Defence Weekly, reported that aerospace giant Boeing was pursuing antigravity research. Boeing denied it. "We are aware of Podkletnov's work on 'anti-gravity' devices and would be interested in seeing further development work being done," said a company statement. "However, Boeing is not funding any activities in this area at this time." Note Boeing's use of the Clintonian present tense. They never contacted Jane's to ask for a correction, Cook says. Meanwhile, British aerospace company BAE Systems says it's keeping an eye on the research, and that it had once funded its own antigravity project, Greenglow.

Unfortunately, Cook strains his own credibility somewhat. A couple of weeks after his Jane's piece appeared, Cook's book on antigravity research, The Hunt for Zero Point, came out. In it, he claims that the Nazis built an antigravity device during World War II. Its absence from present-day science, Cook says, implies a vast "black" world of secret antigravity aircraft that might explain the UFOs people see over Area 51. He's a careful investigative reporter, but once you start talking about UFOs and Nazi antigravity you're not far from hidden tunnels under the White House full of lizard-men disguised as Freemasons.

Even without Nazis, there are plenty of reasons to doubt Podkletnov. My e-mails to the account listed on his recent articles (not peer-reviewed) went unanswered. Even more problematic, I can't find the institution he lists as his affiliation in Moscow. "Eugene always expressed his worries that others could copy his work, although as far as I know he never applied for a patent," Giovanni Modanese, a collaborator of Podkletnov's at the University of Bolzano in Italy, wrote in an e-mail (using a Western version of Podkletnov's first name). "Nonetheless, at the scientific level if one wants a confirmation by others and a successful replication, one must give all the necessary elements." Well, yeah. Modanese says that the current version of the device, now called an "impulse gravity generator," is simpler and could be built "by a big-science team of people expert in superconductivity." A Boeing spokesperson didn't respond to follow-up questions. So, either there's nothing going on here, or it's an X-File.

And the science? Ten years is a long time to go without replication. Combine that with Podkletnov's cagey behavior and it's enough to make even sci-fi geeks like me lose hope. But like the core of any good conspiracy, antigravity research has the ring of plausibility. One of the outstanding problems in physics and cosmology today involves the existence of so-called dark matter and dark energy. They're by far the main constituents of matter in the universe, and nobody knows what they're made of—researchers have only inferred their existence from gravitational effects. Coming up with a new theory of how gravity works might explain that, though it'd be a scientific revolution on a par with relativity. "Changing gravity is in the cards," says Paul Schechter, an astronomer at MIT. "But so far no one's been able to do better than Einstein." Still, Einstein worked in a lowly patent office.

Subject: [mayday] comments on Ira Einhorn appeal issues -- Bars, bells and chow for Einhorn
Reply-To: mayday@yahoogroups.com
Status:  

"...who according to his attorney was so good at manipulating people he
never had to earn a living..." -- classic Ira-media-speak false attribution,
twisted quote

Certainly the longstanding climate of media hyped Ira-hatred and its impact
on the obviously thereby prejudiced judge and jury pool will be an issue on
appeal.

The media coverage of the Ira Einhorn case is a classic example of the
stupidity of American media.  I bet not one Phillynews reporter even looked
up the word "psychotronics" on a websearch to find documentation, or this
word would not have been portrayed akin to "fairy dust" in trial coverage
articles.

To imagine Phillymedia reporters can think intelligently about this
emotionally overcharged case and its real story is a sick joke.  Hundreds of
lines of print in recent years have been devoted to what the Einhorns ate,
and such nonsense as below, and not one substantive line about the key
related issues to his case, unless painting "psychotronics" as "fairy dust"
counts.

Whether Ira Einhorn actually killed Holly Maddux or not (now a foregone
conclusion beyond reasonable debate after guilty verdict and arguably the
longest ongoing media hate/slander campaign in American history against one
man), nevertheless the related issues remain unresolved.

Bottom line is that applications of "psychic phenomena" -- first
scientifically tested and published in a hard science journal (Nature
Magazine, October 17, 1974) by physicists at Stanford Research Institute who
acknowledge on recent TV program about "remote viewing" their funding and
association then by/with CIA -- and potential applications to military
weaponry, eg, "Star Wars" physicist Jack Sarfatti's question to Uri Geller
during that timeframe, "could you (remotely) detonate a nuclear weapon"
(telekinetically, ie, "psychotronically")? -- were of great concern to the
military intelligence communities on both sides of the Iron Curtain
especially in the 70's, and still are today, certainly of sufficient concern
(and capability) to kill and/or frame anyone anwhere anyhow anytime to
protect their "national securities".  Anyone who thinks otherwise is simply
underinformed, ie, ignor-ant, on this issue.

Idiocy is a kind word to describe the overall media coverage of the Ira
Einhorn story so far.  I hope this kick in the mind gets it on a more
substantive track, now that the issue of his "guilt" is "settled".
Somewhere some folks in the "CIA and KGB" are smiling at the transparent
stupidity of the American news media and their "mission accomplished" in
maintaining coverup of this once-dangerous information which government
secrecy restrictions (perhaps justifiably) still prevent understanding.

For real journalists with a microgram of intelligence and interest for
matters beyond reveling in and propagating the prevailing atmosphere of
hatred surrounding the Einhorn case, related intro/info on "psychotronics"
may be found by subject or keyword search at
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ira-einhorn but more on the web by searching
"mind control" and other related keywords.

For those who want to get to the heart of the matter, the advanced
electromagnetic "overunity" energy technologies, under development before,
during, and after the key decade of the 1970's, coming out of or inspired by
the same Tesla research applicable to advanced electromagnetic weapons,
technologies that will instead be replacing nuclear and fossil fuel power
(and the need to go to war over oil as we are planning to do again soon) as
soon as the American media exposes them and their coverup to the public, you
can start with articles and links within at
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/new-energy-solutions  Now retired US Army Lt.
Col. Thomas Bearden has been mentioned many times as someone whose
apprehensions about the potential development of such advanced
electromagnetic weaponry were of great concern to Ira Einhorn in the 1970's.
Why has there been no general media articles on his recently patented
overunity "Motionless Electromagnetic Generator"?  see
http://www.cheniere.org  The "Cold Fusion" announcement of 1989 in Utah by
Pons and Fleishman got lots of press and its subequent debunkment by "the
scientific establishment" (read US govt. funded researchers/"experts") got
even more popular press.  Where is the press now after several months since
"authoritative verification" of this "cold fusion" phenomena by the US
National Laboratories in Los Alamos under name of "sonofusion" and the
demonstrated success of hundreds of researchers worldwide since 1989 not at
all reported in popular American press?  see http://www.infinite-energy.com

If you don't think that US wars, in Afghanistan, Iraqi, etc., are about oil
and illegal drugs, or if you don't think there is something rotten in the
widespread corruption of American intel and law enforcement agencies by the
huge amounts of related slush money maintaining the stock market (such as it
is) and the American/global economy (also related issues to Einhorn's
activism then and now) I dare you to spend an hour reading what a former
LAPD cop has to say on the subject at http://www.copvcia.com  but "hold on
to your hat", and the overview of implications in today's economy causing

Hello everyone, my name is Marc Emery.
 
My adopted son, a heroin and methadone addict for 4 years, along with his girlfriend of 4 years (also addicted), were administered iboga (3,800 mg whole extract, for my son, 2,800 mg. for the woman) 25 days ago. I saw them at day 21, the transformation from hollowed, gaunt, dazed lethargy (and all those illnesses!), into healthy, robust individuals. I was staggered.
 
An employee of mine, I sent to Amsterdam three years ago, to Sara Glatt for whole iboga extract, my first person I assisted to get treatment. (Woman, 82 kg, 5,000 mg.)
 
 
In four days, I will administer 4,000 mg. whole iboga extract to a 20 year old, poly addicted (cocaine/heroin) male. This is my first time administering this substance, though I have procured the extract for my son and his friend, financed and arranged Amsterdam therapy visits for an employee. I have read about 250pages of the literature in the Ibogaine Dossier and other web sites.
 
I have talked alot to Dana Beal, a little to Dr. Malemede.
 
So I want anyone to add suggestions to my intended plan:
 
Martin fixes, Monday 2.00  p.m.
 
Comes to my place. Hangs out. No food or eating except a litle fruit or small amount only. Interact with Martin, talk about the next day, talk about music. Watch Poyaqquatsi. Go to bed at midnight.
 
Martin wakes at 8.00, showers, gets comfortable.
 
At  2.00 p.m. , 150 mg Extract in gel cap administered to see adverse reaction.
 
An hour later,  administer  1,200 mg. in gel caps with milk
An hour later, administer    1,300 mg. in gel caps with milk
An hour later, administer    1,300 mg. in gel caps with milk (5.00 p.m.)
 
Room kept fairly dark after onset. Pail for urination at the bedside, washroom nearby.
3 attendents total ,organized in 8 hour shifts. Hydration necessary, Over the next period of visualizations and experience, observe any unusual reactions.

Any comments please?

You should see how it feels from "this" side...

He needs a good 12 hours (+) , can (IMO) eat (real)
fruit or juice till about 4 hours before treatment -
so he could eat the evening before.

Shower, pee, yes, "get comfortable".

150 mg isn't enough, try 1/2-1gm a couple hours before
the main dose.

Some do it that way, you cold give it all at once
(except the tester dose). To me it is LONG ENOUGH
without making it longer, I want it overwith so I
would do it all at once - but broken up as above is
fine.  You didn't say how big and how bad a habit the
patient has, 4gm should/could do it, he can take more
(eg 5gm total, 1gm test followed by 4). YOu can also
give him/her a little more once you get started if
withdrawals start (they should be mild) or the next
day. DO NOT go over 6gm of ibo for the treatment the
first day. It also may be helpful to just give him
another 1gm in a day or so even if he doesn't seem to
meed it much. Keep in mind that ibogaine has some
withdrawl-like symptoms and addicts may also have some
minor withdrawals - usually it seems (to them) much
worse than it is.

You can use an anti-emetic to make the patient more
comfortable (eg dramamine), some people do it, some
don't use anti-emetics. Ginger tea also helps, DO NOT
MOVE helps the most, if he has to, keep the head fixed
with the body and turn the whole body very slowly.
Long slow deep breaths (4 seconds in, hold for 4, out
in 4 and wait for 4 secones) for any anxiety - usually
happens the first few hours.

>
>   Room kept fairly dark after onset. Pail for

For PUKE too, again, pee first. Ibogaine seems to
cause a very slight amount of urgency to urinate once
you start peeing, so he doesn't have to get-up right
away.

>   3 attendents total ,organized in 8 hour shifts.

Wait several hours before administering any fluids so
the ibo gets absorbed.

> visualizations and experience, observe any unusual

There are many unusual reactions that are quite normal
and nothing to worry about. If there is a vision he
doesn't like, simply blink.

I would also suggest being ready for a re-treat, some
need it, others don't - extending the treatment by
giving a bit more ibo (depends on how he is doing as
to what/how much) after the main dose (extended
treatment) will lessen the need/will be more
effective. See how he is doing and ask the
list/contact a guide if you have any questions. I
would also get the # of a guide and keep it handy,
right next to emergency numbers (ambulance???)

Also, follow protocol. He needs EKG, physical, liver
checked... DO NOT MIX WITH MEDICATIONS unless you are
sure they mix with ibo, NO DOPE or if he is going to
after the ibo, cut it way back - like to 1/3rd a dose.

All IMO of course

Good luck

That should be good enough ,Just make him breath deep if he is restless  and let him to stay still ,
the more movement the greater the chance that he can vomit if that will happen after few hours that's wouldn't matter ,
just try to make him comfortable with you , and drink a little water  .

Sure it will help. The BIG thing is not to move, once
you start moving you will likely get sick, once you
are sick you are SICK (pretty much). Keep still, move
slowly. NO anti-emetic is going to help very much if a
patient is moving around, they will still likely get
sick - just a bit less. Stay still, if the patient
moves, move VERY VERY slowly and let the body adjust
to the moving - eg, sit-up in bed slowly, let the
sloshing (so to speak) ease up, turn to the side of
the bed, let yourself adjust, stand-up slowly, let the
oozyness subside, then start to walk... Keep the head
in line with the body the whole time. You may have to
put your hand on them to regulate how fast they move,
they may not be able to judge how fast they move so
guide them if necessary - in other words you can say
move slowly and they may POP-UP in bed... in which
case they turn several shades of green and land flat
back in bed...

Did I say to KEEP STILL??? That is the #1, #2 and #3
best thing you can do to keep from getting sick. So I
will say it again "KEEP STILL", do not move. Lie flat
on your back is usually the best position.

> does it potentiate the ibo (which may not be a bad

> could mean either smoked or eaten.

I wouldn't eat it with ibo and wouldn't use very much
either. Smoking will not potentiate ibo, just relaxes,
they do not conflict and seem to go well together -
from what I have heard of course...

ONCE AGAIN, STAY STILL (repeat that 1000 times).

One other thing, don't move too fast in front of the
patient, don't ZOOM IN their face, don't wave hands
around - that can make them woozy. YOu as the guide need
to move slowly too.

I never thought I'd meet anyone who's mastered the art of vomiting as I
have. Everything Brett says below is so true. Move SLOWLY, ever so slowly.
I've found if you can get your way into the lotus position, that helps as
well, and just sit there and breathe deeply until the sickness passes. But,
in some drug instances, vomiting may be part of the experience, an integral
thing. In those cases I upchuck with religious passion, and try to make the
most of it.

Absolutely. Most of the time if you are gonna puke,
you are gonna puke eventually anyway, just less of
it/less often. It is not so much to stop it all, just
to be more comfortable and not over-due it with the
vomiting - which can happen. Ibogaine seems to detox,
make fluid and phlegm come out, sometimes black vomit
or piss. It depends on how TOXIC someone is. Me, I am
clean and not toxic at all, don't NEED to puke and
don't but other people who are highly toxic can do
with some good cleansing. The one time I did vomit (I
was toxic) was hours and hours after the ibo, I was
not sick, just one masterful HUGE voiding all at once
-and I needed it at the time.

Vomiting is not a bad thing.

Ibogaine strikes me as one where you most definitely need to be prepared
for vomit. It's an integral part of it. One good way to get it over with
fast is to twist your shoulders quickly to the left or right, while keeping
your stomach straight ahead. This will project it all out, very quickly.
The whole point is to detox. I know that with DMT, people will fast
beforehand if they want to avoid the demon Vomitus. There's also the risk
with DMT of crapping all over yourself. Since the point of ibogaine is to
detox, I would welcome the Vomitus. I don't want this nasty crap inside of
me anyway, so come on Vomitus; do your black magic.

Vomiting is a good thing.

Please subscribe to new MMM email list. Public archive still open.

The public MMM email list at Yahoo Groups now requires people to subscribe
in order to post messages to the list and the public archive. For a few
weeks I set it up so that non-members could also send in email messages to
the list. That was to help people send in MMM rally reports. It worked.
The archive also got some spam too. That was deleted. But people should
keep sending in MMM-related stuff. Just subscribe first.

The MMM message archive itself is still public and accessible to anybody:
