The U.S. Defense Threat Reduction Agency’s (DTRA) Chemical and Biological Technologies Department is funding MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) to develop Artificial Intelligence (A-I) and other so-called deep learning technologies in order to fast-forward scientific data regarding Pandemic treatments, especially the use of Remdesivir (aka Veklury) in drug ‘cocktails’.  Believe it or not, this is a result of an order by the administration of United States President Joseph R. Biden Junior.

The DTRA also admitted that a horse drug called Molnupiravir, created to treat Venezuelan Equine Encephalitis, was used in treating humans for The Pandemic, and it work well as a “repurposed” drug for humans! Repurposing drugs for the current Pandemic, and future pandemics, involves combining them with other drugs. The DTRA hopes a new A-I/deep learning system will speed that process up greatly.

MIT has already been conducting their own A-I/deep learning for repurposing drugs for Pandemic use (Deep learning identifies synergistic drug combinations for treating COVID-19).  MIT is using a deep learning system called ComboNet.

Drugs that play well with each other are called synergistic drugs. The biggest advantages of synergistic drugs is lower doses with much better results. ComboNet discovered that Remdesivir works even better as a synergistic drug!

ComboNet has already suggested mixing Remdesivir with Reserpine (high blood pressure treatment), or with IQ-1S (an experimental JNK Inhibitor, used to treat cancer cells).

The U.S. Food & Drug Administration recent approved Remdesivir for people aged 28 days (not years, days) and older with mild to moderate Pandemic infection, hospitalized or not.

Back in 2010, National Guard units began preparing for Homeland Response Force (HRF) operations in conjunction with the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA).  By 2012, ten National Guard led HRF units, consisting of between 5-hundred and 6-hundred personnel each, and coordinating with FEMA’s ten Regions of operations, had been established.

On 10MAY2022, the Utah National Guard unveiled their new FEMA Region 8 Collapsed Structure Venue, located on Camp Williams.  It will be used by both military and civilian emergency response units for ‘all hazards’ training.

Vehicle I-D: M93 Fox NBCRSV, Cold War & beyond

Cold War: Approximately 1947 (due to U.S. President Harry Truman’s Truman Doctrine) to 1991 (Operation Desert Storm, collapse of Soviet Union).

The M93 NBCRSV/NBCRV (Nuclear, Biological and Chemical Reconnaissance System Vehicle) was first pseudo-secretly unveiled during the last Cold War battle known as Desert Storm.  It was based on the West German Transportpanzer Fuchs, which began service with that NATO country in 1979 (after more than a decade of development).  The U.S. Army’s development of the M93 Fox was the result of a decision in 1976 to restart a dedicated NBC organization.

In 1988, the XM93 began its developmental teething pains on Fort Stewart, Georgia.  It progressed to XM93E1 phase, then in June 1995 was approved for upgrade to M93A1 (aka Block 1 upgrade), the A1 upgrade was completed in October 1998 (the official year it began service despite being used during Desert Storm in 1991), finally upgraded to M93A1P1 (‘up-armored’ and .50cal Remote Weapons Station) in 2007. There is a newer M93A1P2 variant, however, eventually all M93s will be replaced by the new Stryker NBCRSV.

In April 1996, the U.S. Marine Corps created its own Chemical Biological International Reaction Force (CBIRF).  In 1997, the CBIRF held its first wargame in which they put their new M93s (modified German Fuchs) to the test.

By the end of 1997, there were only four M93A1s operating in the Western U.S. There was a concern that U.S. Marines on Twentynine Palms, California, would not recognize the M93A1 as a U.S. vehicle, so photos were issued including night vision photos.

During the last Cold War battle, against Iraq in 1991, the U.S. Army deployed its experimental XM93 Fox Nuclear-Biological-Chemical (NBC, today is called CBRNE) reconnaissance system.  It was assigned to a U.S. Marine Corps division.  The U.S. Marine Corps publication Liberating Kuwait says, on page 172, “During the breaching process, one of the division’s  XM93 Fox chemical reconnaissance vehicles reported a possible chemical weapon, and all of the Marines in the two divisions went to the highest mission-oriented protective posture.”

The XM93 went through more testing as it was found that the NBC capabilities were not satisfactory. Finally, in 1995 the XM93 was accepted as the M93A1 (aka Block 1 improved), despite still falling short of U.S. Army standards. The U.S. military did not buy new Foxes for the M93A1 designation, they simply upgraded their more than 120 XM93s (some of which were acquired secretly/without Congressional knowledge during Desert Storm). The latest upgrade (order placed in August 2007 to upgrade 18 vehicles at a cost of $56.5-million) is known as the M93A1P1. It has been used by both the U.S. Army and Marine Corps, but eventually will be replaced by  the Stryker NBCRV (Nuclear, Biological and Chemical Reconnaissance Vehicle).

Desert Storm: KUWAITI القوات الجوية الكويتية A-4KU SKYHAWK

Mother of all Money Pits: Biden spends Billions on Kuwait! To keep China out, or to cover-up economic collapse?

It was revealed at the end of February 2022, that United States President Joseph R. Biden Junior authorized a $1-billion contract to build Kuwait a new defense ministry headquarters (HQ), but wait, that’s just the tip of the iceberg! Like all the other construction recently completed for Kuwait, the HQ building will be designed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and built by U.S. contractors.

Some news sources say the latest U.S. tax dollar spending is about interfering with China’s global Belt and Road Initiative. However, this sudden decision to build Kuwait a new Defense HQ comes less than a week after the resignation of Kuwait’s Minister of the Interior and the Minster of Defense.

It turns out that resignations of government officials is commonplace in Kuwait, is that why it has become a Money Pit for U.S. taxpayers?

09MAR2022, Kuwait Names New Interior, Defense Ministers From Ruling Family.  Then, on 05APR2022, the entire government of Kuwait resigned, reports say that citizens of the oil rich OPEC (Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries) member are getting tired of the revolving door system!  On 03MAY2022, a report pointed out that despite Kuwait’s massive oil wealth, recent economic and political volatility (Pandemic, War) around the world could pull the rug out from Kuwait’s only source of income.  History shows that countries whose economies are based on ‘putting all their eggs in one basket’ can suffer catastrophic collapses.

It’s not the first time U.S. taxes will be spent on construction in Kuwait. The U.S. has been spending tax dollars on Kuwait since Operations Desert Shield/Desert Storm, three decades ago!

Keep that in mind when you learn that oil rich Kuwait has donated only $15.5-million to something called The Global Fund. Kuwait claims to be funding 1105 projects through the Kuwait Fund For Arab Economic Development, however the majority of those projects are listed as in ‘pipeline’/on hold status, only a very few are in ‘active’ status.

On 14FEB2022, the U.S. Air Force’s 386th Expeditionary Contracting Squadron inspected the construction of eight new dorms on Ali Al Salem Air Base.

U.S. Army video report, by Sergeant Ian Valley, of 02FEB2022 ribbon cutting ceremony for U.S. taxpayer funded pier and water break at the Kuwait Naval Base:

In 2021, the U.S. Embassy in Kuwait announced $25-thousand grants for non-governmental organizations who could provide anything from CoViD-19 ‘resiliency’ to helping rich-brat Kuwaitis get a college education in the United States! I say rich-brats because according to the U.S. Department of State 85% of Kuwaitis have secure government sector jobs, and up until 2019 individual Kuwaitis were considered wealthier than any individual in any other country! The U.S. Department of State also issued a report on the investment climate in Kuwait.

But it turns out that Kuwait is in trouble financially, despite all that oil.  In 2012, Reuters reported that while Kuwait was rich it was backwards politically/economically/socially and highly vulnerable to long term oil price drops. As long as there is war and Pandemic keeping oil prices high Kuwait is safe.  In 2020, Pensions & Investments reported that Kuwait was running out of cash!

“The physical devastation will be significant, and the humanitarian impacts will be felt far beyond the earthquake zone. Now is the time to come together, question, and challenge our plan so that when one of the biggest natural disasters to strike our nation takes place, we are ready to act.”-Willie G. Nunn, FEMA Region 10

In the past week the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s (FEMA) Region 10 conducted Cascadia Rising 2022 Rehearsal of Concept ‘pre-exercise’ (also calling it a “discussion-based exercise”) at the Pierce County Readiness Center on Camp Murray, Washington.

FEMA refers to the coming Cascadia disaster as CSZ Earthquake and Tsunami. CSZ stands for Cascadia Subduction Zone.

Giant floor map used in the recent Cascadia Rising exercise.

A much larger multi-state exercise is scheduled for June 2022, involving the National Guard of the states of Alaska, Idaho, Oregon, Washington, as well as various tribes and federal agencies, Department of Defense, and the Canadian Province of British Colombia.
