In 1947, the Air Force dropped 180 pounds of dried ice on top of a hurricane that was winding down off the coast of Florida. Soon afterward, the hurricane got a second wind, pivoted east and then shot up north and slammed into Savannah, Georgia, where it destroyed millions of dollars’ worth of infrastructure.
In 1962, Lyndon B. Johnson, then vice president, said, “He who controls the weather controls the world.” A few years later, while he was president, the U.S. military deployed Operation Popeye in Vietnam. This was a cloud seeding campaign that caused excessive rain on the Ho Chi Minh Trail, a supply artery for the communists.
In 1978, a Senate subcommittee published a report titled “Weather Modification: Programs, Problems, Policy, and Potential.” Included in the 748-page report is this sentence:
“There’s no question that during a dry season, cloud seeding aggravates conditions to produce drought, and during a wet cycle, it triggers even more rain and probably floods.”
In February of this year, the Government Accountability Office (GAO) said the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), the agency that’s supposed to document all the weather tampering projects around the U.S., was not documenting all the weather tampering projects around the U.S.
In August of this year, USA Today reported that private companies were cloud seeding in some states. It also called people who believes that cloud seeding has caused some of the historic floods we’ve seen recently “conspiracy theorists.”
Three US states have outlawed cloud seeding: Florida, Tennessee, and Louisiana. The takeaway is clear: people believe cloud seeding is a real threat.
As all this is happening, the United Nations just released a report calling on nations to give up their autonomy and dump fossil fuels in the name of curtailing the historic floods, fires, and droughts we’ve been experiencing.
Is someone—or something—causing extreme weather to create a crisis and justify global control over every aspect of life?
