Pravda Claims Secret American Project May Destroy World

Pravda is reporting (hey, SFT seeks out science news from everywhere) that Yuru Solomatin, Ukrainian deputy-secretary of the Ukrainian committee for the economic policy, nature management and for the liquidation of Chernobyl tragedy consequences (how’s THAT for a job title) thinks the top-secret American HAARP program poses a global threat. “It is an open secret that the USA (probably, not the USA alone) has already constructed high-frequency transmitter facilities. Those devices can heat the earth environment up to the state of plasma by means of pumping ions. This makes it possible to control the environment, which might show considerable influence on the atmospheric phenomena. The owners of this weapon are able to program floods, twisters and storms, even earthquakes in any region of the planet. It is also possible to paralyze civil and military electric surveillance systems, and even to affect the mentality of whole nations…. It is quite possible that the first full capacity use of the geophysical weapon might end up in a global catastrophe. Does it seem to be science fiction? Not really, as a matter of fact. High frequency transmitter facilities already exist. They are located in Norway and at an army base in Alaska. The short description of the program and some photographs can be found on the official site haarp.alaska.edu. Another high power transmitter facility, a more powerful one, is going to be put into operation in Greenland soon. When this happens, the geophysical weapon will be capable of covering Eurasia from the Atlantic to the Pacific coast.” As a point of contrast, representatives of the American Radio Relay League (ARRL) toured the Alaskan facility during an open house and called it “a ham’s dream station”. No word yet when the United Nations Monitoring, Verification and Inspection Commission (UNMOVIC) will tour these facilities to determine if they are indeed Weapons of Mass Destruction as the Ukrainians claim…
