Conspiracy Nation -- Vol. 7 Num. 40 ====================================== ("Quid coniuratio est?") ----------------------------------------------------------------- THE OKLAHOMA BOMBINGS AND THE RADIOACTIVE COVER-UP ================================================== By Sherman H. Skolnick ---------------------- It is now an accepted fact, that the federal government has covered up various past radioactive events. Soldiers were exposed to the deadly rays, as tests, starting in the 1950s. An entire town in Utah -- roughly a third of its inhabitants -- became deathly sick or died from radioactive fall-out from Nevada atomic testing. The government denied the dangers for some three decades. These and dozens of other events, white-washed or suppressed, all under the umbrella of so-called "national security". Is not the health and security of the people "national security"? After the bombings in Oklahoma City, rescue teams were quickly flown in, such as from Maryland. (Bombings, in the plural, is used, because experts on explosives contend one so-called "fertilizer bomb" did not and could not do the damage as seen in pictures.) A team of sniffing dogs were brought in. Thereafter, one of the dogs died. Another took mysteriously ill. Some observers became suspicious. So the carcass of the deceased dog was dug up and scientists examining the carcass stated the dog's lungs were very radioactive. They warned those who had buried the dog to now quickly cremate the remains using safety precautions as with any highly radioactive materials. Some of the rescue team members continue their regular work -- but are having extreme health problems. They can barely drag themselves to work, coming home mysteriously exhausted. A woman rescue team member can no longer do her regular work. She stays at home, wasting away. She is afraid to talk except in cryptic remarks and whispers. Apparently she is fearful the government doctors will cut her off from all medical attention if she goes public with what she knows about the bombsites and the aftermath. She apparently is dying from a deadly dose of radioactivity, from having been in the bombsites on a mission of mercy. Government bureaucrats, of various kinds, insult her, saying, "Get out of bed. You're just a malingerer." This is just a small snapshot of a broader happening. The federal government is doing this like they have done for decades: lying about radioactivity in the name of "national security". One special team -- a very special team -- had a portable geiger counter; it went berserk in the bombsites. A member of that team whispered into the ear of a very knowledgeable investigative journalist, "Tritium", a radioactive material that reacts somehow with water (such as the lungs of the sniffing dog). Some try to explain away the cementing over the bombsites after quickly demolishing the building. Supposedly done to prevent people from falling into the excavation. Why was the federal government in such a hurry to flatten the federal office building? Was it to prevent detailed examinations of the pillars by independent experts? Savvy folks contend that the so-called "truck bomb" merely created the pressure, or signal, to pressure- or other such- detonators with explosives strapped around the building pillars. A fertilizer bomb, some say, could not have so damaged the concrete reinforced columns as shown in the pictures of the scene. In Paris, the French secret police foiled terrorists planning to set off a conventional bomb designed to spread particles of deadly radioactive plutonium in the air and in the area. In Moscow, Chechen rebels apparently buried a radioactive device as a warning. They were protesting Moscow's bloody suppression of dissent in Chechnya. The cover-up of the radioactivity doses received by the rescue team people, and others, tends to prove the federal government is squelching discussion of what really happened. Apparently, a more conventional group of explosives spread radioactive material in the air and in the area. It must be quickly pointed out, these bombs were *not* atomic devices like at Hiroshima, but rather, very sophisticated more conventional explosives designed to scatter radioactive material piggy-backed on the devices. Is that what some experts mean when they whisper, "particle bomb"? A retired Brigadier General and a retired top FBI official have criticized the government version of the Oklahoma tragedy. BUT: are these two commentators prevented from discussing radioactivity because of any national security oaths they may have signed while on active duty? Quite a number of those who were in the bombsites are deathly ill, with unspecified illnesses. A public clamor about the truth of the bombsites may force the federal government to belatedly give them proper treatment that may yet save their lives. They may all be dead, from complications of radioactive exposure, however, if the government delays telling the truth until years and years from now. To paraphrase an old saying, Let the truth be told, though the government crumbles.
