Not exactly sure how this will be enforced if true but was interesting.


Court to Defendant: Stop Blasting That Man's Mind!

Late last year, James Walbert went to court, to stop his former business
associate from blasting him with mind-altering electromagnetic radiation.
Walbert told the Sedgwick County, Kansas panel that Jeremiah Redford
threatened him with "jolts of radiation" after a disagreement over a
business deal. Later, Walbert, said, he began feeling electric shock
sensations, hearing electronically generated tones, and getting popping and
ringing sounds in his ears. On December 30th, the court decided in Walbert's
favor, and issued a
<http://groups.google.com/group/ffchs-daily-harassment-log/web/court-recogni
zes-electronic-harassment-in-stalking-protection-order-for-james-walbert?pli
=1> first-of-its-kind order of protection, banning Redford from using
"electronic means" to further harass Walbert. No, seriously.

I recently took part in a BBC Radio 4 program, which took a
<http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00l2ltw> light-hearted look into the "the
real  <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Manchurian_Candidate%20> Manchurian
Candidate" - and examined whether there is any truth in stories of mind
control. It gave me a chance to talk about exotic non-lethal weapon concepts
like the so-called
<http://www.newscientist.com/article/dn13513-us-army-toyed-with-telepathic-r
ay-gun.html%20> telepathic raygun, the system which
<http://www.wired.com/dangerroom/2008/07/the-microwave-s/> beams sound
directly into your skull, and the "
<http://www.newscientist.com/article/mg16422184.300-and-the-voice-said.html>
voice of god" talking fireball. Most of these projects are just lab
experiments, or examples of Powerpoint engineering. But in some legal,
policy, and business circles, electromagnetic brain assaults are being taken
seriously.

Walbert's cause is supported by  <http://thejimguestshow.com/news/> Jim
Guest, a Republican member of the Missouri House of Representatives. He's
working on proposed legislation to addresses electronic harassment,
including a bill against the
<http://www.house.mo.gov/billtracking/bills091/biltxt/intro/HB0550I.htm>
forced implantation of RFID chips.
The U.N. is also now taking the
<http://www.wired.com/dangerroom/2008/12/un-investigates> possibility of
electromagnetic terrorism against people seriously. And for the first time
this year's European  <http://www.non-lethal-weapons.com/sy05index.html>
Symposium on Non-lethal Weapons included a session on the
<http://www.slavery.org.uk/nlw5.htm%20> social implications of non-lethal
weapons, with specific reference to "privacy-invasive remote interrogation
and behavioral influence applications." Those who believe they are being
targeted are getting a bit of official recognition.

For some, this opens up a new business opportunity. There are already quite
a few companies out there offering "
<http://www.bugsweeps.com/info/electronic_harassment.html%20> Technical
Surveillance Counter Measures," or sweeps to determine if you are the victim
of electronic harassment. As well detecting the usual bugging devices, they
can check if you are being covertly bombarded by microwaves which may be the
cause of "headache, eye irritation, dizziness, nausea, skin rash, facial
swelling, weakness, fatigue, pain in joints and/or muscles, buzzing/ringing
in ears."

Much of this trade may come from people with symptoms caused by something
less exotic than high-tech military hardware. But companies will no doubt be
willing to sell them expensive protection measures, anyway. And as awareness
of these developing technology projects increases, we are likely to be
hearing a lot more about "electronic harassment," "gang stalking" and the
like over the next few years.

And there is also likely to be what folklorists call "
<http://www.ostension.org/whats_ostension.html> Ostension," or acting out.
Now that there are so many websites explaining how easy it is to harass
people by  <http://www.bugsweeps.com/info/electronic_harassment.html>
zapping them with a modified microwave oven, sooner or later someone is
bound to try it.
