Rep Kucinich Rewrites HR 2977 - 'Chemtrails' Disappear
By Lorie Kramer
[email protected]
January 27, 2002
The "Space Preservation Act of 2001" originally introduced in the House
by Rep. Dennis Kucinich as HR 2977 has been re-written.
The new, revised bill, HR 3616, "Space Preservation Act of 2002" was
introduced January 23, 2002.
Re-writing bills is a common enough practice as a bill goes through the
legislative process. However, the differences between HR 2977 and HR
3616 are more than just a few tweaks here or there.
By its conspicuous appearance in 2977, the term 'chemtrails' received a
form of credibiity within the official government process never seen
before...producing the hope that one courageous Representative had
finally had the fortitude to take the issue of chemtrails to a level of
Congressional scrutiny long overdue.
Even though chemtrails are sprayed/deployed in the 2-6 mile high range,
and not the 60 mile altitude stated in 2977, the simple fact of their
inclusion in Kucinich's 2977 list of weapons systems was deemed a
major breakthrough by tens of thousands of citizens and researchers
across the country who have been monitoring and investigating the
spraying going on in the skies of America for the past three years.
In Rep. Kucinich's revised new (some woud say 'emasculated') Bill, HR
3616, there is no longer any mention whatever of:
* chemtrails,
* particle beams
* electromagnetic radiation
* plasmas
* extremely low frequency (ELF) or ultra low frequency (ULF) energy
radiation
* or mind-control technologies
as weapons systems covered in the measure.
In fact, 'Exotic Weapons' - as boldly-stated in HR 2977 - are not even
mentioned in HR 3616. So, what happened here? Did someone have a
'friendly chat' with Rep. Kucinich? Did the Congressman inhale a bit too
much aluminum during his morning job? Did he look up one day and find
himself standing under a big 'X' and feel his knees get a little wobbly?
As stated in Kucinich's first version of his "Space Preservation Act of
2001" -
"The term 'exotic weapons systems' includes weapons designed to
damage space or natural ecosystems (such as the ionosphere and upper
atmosphere) or climate, weather, and tectonic systems with the purpose
of inducing damage or destruction upon a target population or region on
earth or in space."
Apparently Rep. Kucinich is no longer concerned about the effects of the
testing and use of exotic weapons systems on natural ecosystems and
living organisms on the planet.
Although chemtrails are no longer stated as a weapons system, or even
mentioned in HR3616, the question of the components of the RFMP /
VTRPE warfare system is raised.
HR 3616 states -
"To preserve the cooperative, peaceful uses of space for the benefit of all
humankind by prohibiting the basing of weapons in space and the use of
weapons to destroy or damage objects in space that are in orbit, and for
other purposes."
The intent of this passage remains fuzzy. Example: Are Imaging satellites
used with the RFMP / VTRPE system broadly defined as part of a
weapons system ?
HR 3616 further states -
"The terms 'space-based weapon' and 'space-based system' mean a
device capable of damaging or destroying an object or person by
directing a source of energy against that object or person."
The word "directing" is clearly the key. Strictly speaking, the RFMP
system does, by imaging, provide information to direct a source of
energy against that particular object or person
HR3616 also says -
"4) civil, commercial, or defense activities (including communications,
navigation, surveillance, reconnaissance, early warning, or remote
sensing) that are not related to space-based weapons or systems."
They could say the RFMP is not a weapon - it does not "fire a bullet,"
but it is part of a weapons system. There are clearly serious issues of
definition in Kucinich's new Bill. It is conceivable that the RFMP /
VTRPE weapons system may fall in the area covered by HR3616.
It remains a mystery as to how the word 'chemtrails' appeared in HR
2977 to begin with. Investigation into that point is ongoing. Who actually
is authoring the text of these bills? Why such an emphasis on "exotic
weapons" in HR 2977 but then nothing mentioned about them in HR
3616?
My call to Rep. Kucinich's Washington office last week was brief. I was
told there had been "quite a few" calls regarding HR 2977. I was then
told my questions should be directed to the person on the congressman's
staff who handled that bill. I was then transfered to that person and
received...big surprise...their voice mail service. I left a message with my
contact information. No reply has been received to date. I will place a
follow-up call again this week. We suggest others do the same.
Even though the term 'chemtrails' has been removed from the revised
bill, efforts to continue to educate and alert others about the chemtrail
issue go on. Many thanks to those who have taken the time to contact
their Congressional Representatives, keep it up.
We still know what we see. We still didn't consent. We still want it
stopped.
