Operation Jupiter: A small part of a larger military operation spreading disease at a hospital near you!

My research now leads me to believe that many of the bacterial and viral outbreaks over the past few years can be directly tied to a U.S. Army program called JUPITR ATD (Joint USFK Portal Integrated Threat Recognition, Advanced Technology Demonstration).  It was originally intended for experiments in Republic of Korea, but then spread to west Africa.

Video explainer made public in 2013:

It must be noted that the involvement of U.S. AFRICOM with JUPITR ATD coincides with the recent ebola outbreak.  It must be noted that Republic of Korea is dealing with a mysterious MERS (Middle East Respiratory Syndrome) outbreak that seems to be concentrated in their hospitals.

The JUPITR ATD is officially about trying to develop a fast, cheap and standardized way of detecting biological weapons deployed during combat.  Currently the detection of bio and chemical weapons is not fast or reliable, and is not standardized within the NATO Members or NATO Partners.  The problem with the JUPITR ADT Program is that in order to test their experimental equipment they must use live viruses and bacteria, and it must be done in a ‘real world’ environment (mainly outdoors).

Read the following U.S. Army statements from 2013 and 2014, noting the types of ‘agents’ being used and the locations, you’ll begin to connect the dots.

“JUPITR ATD is a four-year collaborative program between Edgewood Chemical Biological Center (ECBC), and JPEO CBD to provide the Korean Peninsula with unique biosurveillance capabilities.”–U.S. Army Research Development and Engineering Command, November 2013

“….the cost of a large-scale outbreak or an attack with a bio weapon is significant…..to get an early detection and early response, you can mitigate and minimize those costs…..

….the BioSurveillance Portal is already being embraced by our allies in Australia and Great Britain…..

Over the last six months, a great number of things have changed. We haven’t really been vocal in announcing that in the press yet, but for one thing, the BSP [Bio-Surveillance Portal] is now adapted to the Ebola portal and is being used by U.S. AFRICOM in West Africa…..It is also being used in…CENTCOM…..we haven’t really gone very public with that….

….CDC [Centers for Disease Control & Prevention] and HHS [Health & Human Services] are working with us, so this is not a DoD only effort…..I actually don’t know who all the thousands of users really are.

…..Ten systems have been selected…..Two systems went over to Osan Air Base [Korea] and they were turned on at the beginning of September [2014]…..two more systems were flown to the two hundred foot long Ambient Breeze Tunnel [Dugway Proving Ground, Utah] and they were assessed by challenging them with 152 aerosol challenges of four different agents: anthrax, plague, bacillia and botoxin…Those systems departed afterwards for the Naval Research Laboratory….undergoing a maritime excursion in an environment that simulates a naval vessel. This test will run through February 4 [2015]…”–Peter Emanuel, U.S. Army Edgewood Chemical and Biological Center, December 2014  

Utah ships anthrax to Aum Shinrikyo terror groups?  U.S. halts vaccines for U.S. troops!

When the Lamb broke the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth living creature saying, “Come.” I looked, and behold, an Ashen Horse; and he who sat on it had the name Death; and Hades was following with him. Authority was given to them over a fourth of the earth, to kill with sword and with famine and with pestilence and by the wild beasts of the earth.

More False Flag Bull-Shit: Utah ships anthrax to Aum Shinrikyo terror groups? Ebola & anthrax part of Operation Jupiter! U.S. halts vaccines for U.S. troops!

12 June 2015 (17:52 UTC-07 Tango 01)/22 Kordad 1394/24 Sha’ban 1436/26 Ren-Wu (4th month) 4713

“The world should brand the scheme of the U.S……as the gravest challenge to peace and hideous crime aimed at genocide.”-National Defence Commission, Democratic People’s Republic of Korea

The DPRK (Korea north) is accusing the supposed mistaken shipments of live weaponized anthrax from the United States (since 2005) to be part of an operation called Jupiter Plan.  The DPRK has asked the UN Security Council to investigate.

According to news reports out of Republic of Korea (RoK, Korea south) not only has weaponized anthrax been sent out by Utah, but so has a deadly version of botulinum toxin type A (aka botulism or botox)!

I’ve discovered it’s called the JUPITR ATD Program, run by the U.S. Army’s Edgewood Chemical Biological Center.  JUPITR stands for Joint USFK (United States Forces Korea) Portal and Integrated Threat Recognition.  ATD stands for Advanced Technology Demonstration.  Officially it’s supposed to study how to better detect bio-weapons like anthrax and ebola, that for some reason U.S. administrators think will be used against Korea: “The idea behind the JUPITR is ….biosurveillance…..already being embraced by our allies in Australia and Great Britain, obviously USFK [U.S. Forces Korea]“-Peter Emanuel, U.S. Army Edgewood Chemical Biological Center

JUPITR ATD site in Korea.

Today the Obama regime’s Department of Defense (DoD) has revealed that live weaponized anthrax from Utah’s Dugway Proving Ground was shipped to Camp Zama in Japan, in 2005.

It should be noted that infamous Japanese terror group Aum Shinrikyo (the ones who launched a chemical weapons attack in a Tokyo subway in 1995) stockpiled anthrax and ebola!  That terror group is still alive and well.  By 2007 Aum Shinrikyo split into two sub-groups; Aleph and Hikari no Wa.  In January 2015 Japan’s Public Security Examination Commission claimed they had the groups under surveillance.  It’s estimated that the number of people who’ve joined Aum Shinrikyo, since the 1995 chemical attack, is more than 2-thousand.

The number of laboratories that got live anthrax has been increased to 69.  Anthrax was also shipped to a privately run lab in United Kingdom, in 2007.  Government administrators refuse to reveal the name of the lab.

It was also revealed that Dugway Proving Ground was caught (by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) shipping live anthrax in 2007, but nothing was done to stop it!    The CDC report said personnel at Dugway knew the anthrax was alive when they shipped it out!

I found a November 2000 DoD press release (DoD Stops Anthrax Shots for Troops in Korea) announcing that the Bush regime OKd the halting of anthrax vaccinations for U.S. military personnel in Republic of Korea: “We want to conserve our supplies….”-Ken Bacon, Bush regime Pentagon spokesman

Pentagon’s anthrax math doesn’t add up!

U.S. Job Losses & Store Closings, 07 – 09 June 2015: “It was so humiliating to train somebody else to take over your job! I still can’t grasp it!” Disney kills U.S. jobs with foreigners! World’s richest man shuts down oil company!

Stock market analysts warning of a massive crash coming:

“Companies are tilting the results and the analysts are buying it….

…What if they said they’re going to pay for rent by issuing stock?”-Tom Brown, Second Curve Capital

“The analysts aren’t doing enough to get behind the numbers that management gives them to find out what’s really going on.”-Lynn Turner, former Securities and Exchange Commission accountant

“The longer the rally, the bigger the downside because of all the smoke and mirrors.”-John Del Vecchio, asset manager

“The data is more confusing than it’s been in a long time, and the reason is all the ‘junk’ they put in the numbers.”-Michael Lewitt, Credit Strategist Group

“People [investors] just want to know the number. They don’t care how the sausage is made.”-Michelle Leder, financial analyst with Footnoted.com

Also, what housing market recovery? Federal administrators have changed the real estate sales closing rules.  The Truth in Lending Act and Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act (TILA-RESPA) created new home selling rules supposedly to help buyers understand the process, and to ensure that buyers aren’t getting ripped off on their home loan.  Those rules go into effect in August.  However, when I looked at it, it just looks like a heck of a lot more smoke-n-mirrors fine print and it will probably delay home sales, and drive closing costs up.

Incomplete list of publicly announced layoffs & shutdowns:

Alaska: News reports warn that 16-thousand state employees will be laid off if politicians can’t agree on a new budget by 01 July.

California: Albertsons-Safeway issued yet another WARN saying eight more employees will be let go from Safeway‘s Pleasanton HQ, in August.  Back in February, Southern California Edison laid off 4-hundred U.S. citizens, and then replaced then with migrant workers from other countries!  What housing market recovery?  Costa Mesa based 28 years old home decor chain-store Anna’s Linens on the verge of bankruptcy.  Company administrators admit they are trying to sell-off the business.  3-hundred stores across the U.S. will be affected.  Dating app Tinder laid off six employees.  Monterey County has shutdown access to Lake San Antonio, there’s literally no more water.

Florida:  Too Big to Jail Bank of America is shutting down 14 drive-thru teller windows throughout The Sunshine State.  In Orlando, it’s been revealed by former U.S. employees of Disney that they were replaced with migrant workers.  250 U.S. citizens have been laid off at the Disney amusement park in Florida, since October 2014!  An unnamed former employee said they were forced to train their foreign replacements: “I just couldn’t believe they could fly people in to sit at our desks and take over our jobs exactly. It was so humiliating to train somebody else to take over your job! I still can’t grasp it!”

Georgia: Yarn maker Mohawk Industries shutting down their Chatsworth factory in August, 156 jobs affected!  The company is consolidating operations to newer factories.

Idaho: In Coeur d’Alene, youth outreach program Crosswalk North Idaho shutdown due to having its federal taxpayer funding canceled.  Also in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho Youth Ranch announced they must shutdown their Anchor House addiction treatment center for boys, it will be re-purposed as a family resource center.

Illinois: God refuses to stop ‘his’ Catholic Charities from shutting down two family shelters and two child development centers by July. The religious organization blames lack of taxpayer funding.  In the U.S., religion is supposed to be separate from government!

Michigan: Injection molder Klein Plastics laid off 74 employees in a first round of layoffs.  Its part of parent company’s Klein Tools’ plan to consolidate its Michigan and Illinois operations to Texas by 2016.  In Ferndale, restaurant Torino suddenly shutdown.  The owners claim that Health Department rules do not allow them to serve the type of food they offer where they are located: “This week we were visited by the Health Department and together we have determined that it is no longer possible to continue serving a menu of our caliber due to the current size of our facility.”

Minnesota: Minnetonka based food processor Cargill laid off 45 more IT (information technology) employees, blaming the not recovered economy.

Missouri:   Chesterfield based oil pipe maker Boomerang Tube now chapter 11 bankrupt busted. Reports say creditors could be taking over the company. Boomerang Tube was started by Len Blavatnik, who (according to some news reports) is now considered the World’s richest man. Saint Louis based coal company Peabody Energy eliminating 250 jobs! Administrators say the bad economy is forcing them to cut costs by $45-million USD. In Saint Charles, the Saint Andrews second run movie theater shutdown.  As with many other movie theater shutdowns they probably couldn’t afford to upgrade to digital.

Montana: What housing market recovery?  Cross-laminated lumber maker SmartLam revealed they laid off at least nine employees last week.  Administrators say they are trying to diversify their customer base as they admitted they’ve been focused only on building construction in the oil industry.

Nebraska:  The Nebraska Bookstore shutdown, 20 jobs lost.  Reports say it’s being sold to  the University of Nebraska for $4.75-million.

New Jersey: God refuses to stop the shutdown of two of ‘his’ churches.  In Atlantic City, Saint Michael‘s and Saint Monica‘s will shutdown as the Catholic community will be forced by the Diocese of Camden into one parish.  Catholic administrators blame massive debts and the growing exodus of people on the city’s collapsed gambling industry, and warned more bad things are coming: “The consolidations are not done. There will be more as we go forward.”

New York: Eight years old bakery Sherry Lynn’s Gluten Free shutdown. The owners blamed “struggles keeping this store open”.   Euromarket Designs announced they’re shutting down their big Crate & Barrel store in NYC by August, 137 jobs lost!  NYC based Time Incorporated blasted their managers for apologizing to employees who are being laid off!  At least 11 of their U.S. jobs were off-shored to Philippines.  Local news reports say a total of 80 IT (information tech) workers for Time will be laid off.  A manual on how to fire employees was issued to Time Inc. managers, and somebody  leaked it to the news media, it stated “Don’t say you’re sorry”.  After ten years art venue Proteus Gowanus shutting down, but not because of lack of interest.  The operators said they’ve become too successful, but it was never their intent to create a commercialized/institutionalized/corporatized arts center.  Keep raging against the Machine!  After 40 years the La Marmite restaurant shutdown.

North Carolina: The 20 years old High Point Pier 1 Imports store shutdown.  It’s part of the Texas based company’s plan to shutdown 1-hundred stores this year!

Oregon: The Alhambra music theater shutting down, yet again.  This time it’s blamed on the landlord.

Rhode Island:  The Lonsdale Fire District discovered they have a grand total of $14-thousand to operate on and must layoff all full-time firefighters!  Taxpayers are demanding to know what happened to the money as fire district administrators never warned of any financial problems.

Texas: What housing market recovery?  Houston based real estate company PM Realty Group announced it must eliminated 52 jobs in July.  The jobs were part of a contract to maintain an office building for oil company Chevron.

Virginia:  The iconic Virginia Beach 66 years old Oceanfront Dairy Queen shutting down due to greedy property developers. Property developers forced, I mean convinced family owners to sell it to them. It will be torn down in September to make room for two big hotel developments.  Richmond based Health Diagnostic Laboratory now chapter 11 bankrupt busted, after announcing it will layoff 42 more employees across the country. Last year the medical testing company laid off 162 people! It’s connected to a federal investigation, and subsequent $47-million fine, in which the company is accused of bribing doctors and hospitals.

Washington: What was that about legalized marijuana saving the economy? The evil ‘lawmakers’ passed a new law banning anymore new marijuana shops.  Already the city of Seattle has issued shutdown notices to eight ganja shops!  Three weed sellers have filed lawsuits against the city.  Also in the evil city of Seattle, 38 years old Cinema Books shutdown, the owner was struggling with competing with ‘Big Box’ stores, but the final straw was construction projects that blocked customers. News media say several business in the area report crashing sales due to the fact the construction projects destroyed parking for customers.  What construction industry recovery? After 75 years the Seattle-Snohomish Mill shutdown due to crashing sales.   Cerberus controlled and AB Acquisition owned Albertsons-Safeway decided to shutdown another grocery store: “In Mercer Island, we are also unfortunately facing a substantial rent increase that makes it financially unfeasible to remain in the space.”

WARN=Worker Adjustment & Retraining Notification

The U.S. Department of Labor (DoL) no longer issues mass layoff reports: “On March 1, 2013, President Obama ordered into effect the across-the- board spending cuts (commonly referred to as sequestration) required by the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act, as amended. Under the order, the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) must cut its current budget by more than $30 million, 5 percent of the current 2013 appropriation, by September 30, 2013. In order to help achieve these savings and protect core programs, the BLS will eliminate two programs, including Mass Layoff Statistics, and all ‘measuring green jobs’ products.

People swimming off the coastline of Florida are being attacked by vibrio vulnificus.  The flesh eating bacteria is even being found in the seafood caught in the area.

Florida state health administrators report that in the past 12 months 32 people have been attacked, two have died.

Administrators are blaming warm saltwater for spreading the bacteria, but two years ago I wrote how cases of flesh eating bacteria have spiked ever since the British Petroleum oil disaster in the Gulf of Mexico (Did BP’s Gulf of Mexico oil spill create human eating bacteria?).

U.S. Food Crisis 11 June 2015: Idaho wheat unfit for human consumption?!

11 June 2015 (03:05 UTC-07 Tango 01)/21 Kordad 1394/23 Sha’ban 1436/25 Ren-Wu (4th month) 4713

“We’re talking 1 to 2% is enough bad grain to lower the falling number of a whole load below what is acceptable. The damage was done.”-Cathy Wilson, Idaho Wheat Commission

“I expect a lot of growers are going to expect I am not telling them the truth, and they are going to be, unfortunately, very upset when they get caught.”-Don Wille, Thresher Artisan Wheat

Idaho farmers plant enough wheat to make The Gem State the 5th largest wheat producer in the U.S.  However, new research is warning Idaho farmers that their crops might be worthless!

Agriculture researchers in Idaho have discovered that a single damaged grain of wheat can render entire harvests unsuitable for use by flour mills!

Food processors require harvested wheat grains to meet a milling standard (called a “falling number”) before being turned into flour.  Many farmers have leftover wheat from their previous year’s harvest and save it for the next year’s harvest.  They then mix in last year’s wheat with the newly harvested wheat before they sell it.  That’s now a big problem.

Researchers with the University of Idaho discovered that many of the previous year’s wheat crops suffered sprout damage, which adversely affects the kernels.  Damaged grains produce the undesirable alpha amylase enzyme.  A single damaged grain can render 2-thousand 6-hundred good kernels useless for milling into flour!

Idaho Wheat Commission administrators are now urging farmers not to mix last year’s left over harvest with this year’s.  They want farmers to sell-off last year’s leftover crops as feed for livestock.

This is a new problem for southern and eastern Idaho farmers as sprout damaged wheat used to be a rarity here.  Sprout damage takes place when wheat fields remain too wet early in the season, and it can occur after harvest if it is left lying on the ground for too long before threshing.  Southern and eastern Idaho have been experiencing lingering and late season rains for the past few years.

Saber Rattling against China about territorial claims? Once again it’s about the oil, the huge oil reserves right underneath China! It’s why China is on the warpath against Uygur Muslims!

11 June 2015 (01:12 UTC-07 Tango 01)/21 Kordad 1394/23 Sha’ban 1436/25 Ren-Wu (4th month) 4713

“China is where all the growth in oil, gas and coal is going to be coming from.”-Lin Boqiang, PetroChina consultant

“China is the third country to achieve shale gas production capacity after the U.S. and Canada.”-Zhai Gangyi, Oil & Gas Resources Survey Center

For years we’ve been told China has no petroleum, but a new oil survey says otherwise.

The China Shale Gas Resources Survey says China is sitting on 25-trillion cubic meters of natural gas.  That’s 6-trillion more than what the United States is sitting on!

The Chinese government is already spending millions of USD developing the shale fields.  China’s state-owned Sinopec is already extracting the gas: “We produce 20 to 40 cubic meters of shale gas every day. That meets just about 50 thousand household’s energy demand for one day.”-Ouyang Liming, Jianghan Oilfield 2nd Shale Gas Platform

Analysts point out that most of China’s shale petroleum is inside mountains, and China does not have the water resources that the United States has.  However, Chinese scientist are trying to create waterless fracking technology.

So what part of China has the most petroleum?  Why, the very region where China is stealing land from the native Uygur Muslims.

The Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region is being turned into a massive energy hub.  Not only does it have the most natural gas, it also has the most oil and coal of all the territories controlled by China.  The U.S. Energy Information Administration estimates that 40% of China’s petroleum reserves are in the Uygur region.

By the end of this year Uygur natural gas production is expected to hit 30.5-billion cubic meters.  There’s so much natural gas in the area that U.S. based General Electric (GE) is building nine small-scale LNG (Liquefied Natural Gas) plants.

Not only is the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region sitting on a lot of oil, but according to PetroChina consultant Lin Boqiang “…all the imported resources from Central Asia, oil and gas, go through Xinjiang and then get distributed from there.” 

This massive new oil production and transportation system is what President Xi Xinping is talking about when he mentions “The New Silk Road”.

“As patients developed symptoms, they visited big hospitals with better facilities and equipment without any prior notice. It resulted in infections of medical staffs and families of the patients…..”-Lee Jong-koo,  JW LEE Center for Global Medicine, Seoul National University College of Medicine

The fact that almost all new cases of MERS were contracted in hospitals the UN’s World Health Organization is warning that emergency room procedures need to change.  Lee Jong-koo is working with a UNWHO team investigating why so many people are getting sick in hospitals.

Preliminary results suggest that what happened was at the beginning a few people who got sick sought help through hospital ERs.  They came into contact with many healthcare workers before being diagnosed with MERS.  Those healthcare workers got sick and then spread it to other healthcare workers.

UNWHO investigators are suggesting new ER procedures, such as  limiting contact between healthcare workers and incoming patients, until a diagnoses is made.  Also, constantly transferring ER patients from room to room should be stopped, and patients should be kept separated from other patients.  Basically ERs need to start operating as if there’s an epidemic taking place all the time!

Republic of Korea now reports 122 confirmed cases.  The new cases include a migrant healthcare worker from China.

The Chinese woman got infected after caring for a sick Korean.  As is the trend all new cases were exposed to Middle East Respiratory Syndrome while they were in a hospital.

In China’s Hong Kong, health administrators reported that 31 of 33 people tested for MERS are negative.  Apparently they are still waiting for results for two people.

“With the 3D model, we could better understand the actual anatomical structure of the twin girls’ conjoined parts. And it helped us to decide on a more precise starting point…”-Zheng Shan, chief surgeon

A 3D printer helped Chinese medical personnel separate two girls joined at the butt.

Healthcare workers at the Children’s Hospital of Fudan University, in Shanghai, used MRI and  CT scans, in conjunction with the printer, to map out and create 3D models of the infant girl’s hips and spines.  They used the models to practice ‘virtual’ operations, before performing the actual separation.

The concern was that it appeared that the last part of the girl’s lower intestine were fused into one.

So far the operation is considered successful, but doctors are waiting three days to make sure the girls are recovering well, before making an official proclamation.
