Reality Check

In recent weeks there have been rumors about illegals crossing the border from both Mexico and Canada, being detained and odd things being found on these folks.  Apparently, I find out now, I’m not the ONLY one hearing these rumors. For the most part they are other-than-Mexican illegals, some being classified as Chinese, and some as Iranian nationals. This in and of itself is enough to make me cringe.  I’ve been predicting a type of "Red Dawn" scenario for roughly five years now — mostly on Anomalies Network.  Unfortunately, the site has changed recently, and apparently the two most important threads I’ve every created are completely missing in action, so I’ll try to provide some background a bit later.

(Update: Here are the original threads 21 Sep 06:

The China Threat

Ground War in the US

The threads above were started a long time ago, and the top one is "The China Threat", second one is "Ground war in the US"…. )

A couple of days ago, Sean Osborne from the Northeast Intelligence Network reported on this very subject.  First he posted private messages to alert the staff at TAA.  Then he later has posted his own, open source story on NEIN and at TAA. Apparently, according to his article, these illegals have been caught, detained and searched.  On many of them have been found "KI Tablets".  These are also known as potassium-iodine tablets, and are used just before, or during a nuclear emergency by public citizens, nuclear workers, government folks, and military personnel to attempt to prevent the body, specifically the thyroid from absorbing a large, and deadly quantity of radioactive iodine. (Here is some information about the tablets.)

Since the 1950s, the United States has been providing "iodine" in another form, in normal, everyday table salt.  However, such use of these tablets is not inherently going to flush the system of radioactive materials. In fact, it’s only use would be PRIOR to exposure, and it ONLY protects ones thyroid against the intake of potentially deadly radioactive iodine.  Once this radioactive version of iodine has bound with your thyroid, nothing is going to flush it.  So, the provision of iodine in salt form since the 1950s was the preferred method, protecting every child and adult in the United States against fallout, and subsequent intake of radioactive elements.

I believe that the thyroid is one part of the human body that can ingest quickly these forms of radioactive materials, and put you at significant risk, quickly. Obviously there are other radioactive elements the body can absorb readily and they can become potentially dangerous as well. However, this one, Iodine (I) is one that can be used daily to help save lives in the case of a nuclear showdown of some sort. The below is quoted from: Civil Defense Perspectives, January 1997 (vol. 13, #2) 1601 N Tucson Blvd #9, Tucson AZ 85716 c 1997 Physicians for Civil Defense

In the Dec. 6, 1996, issue, Science published a much abbreviated version of the letter that follows:

We are surprised that Science has not yet published a correction of the potentially life-endangering scientific error in “Children Become the First Victims of Fallout,'’ Michael Balter’s article in the April 19, 1996 issue. In the last paragraph of his otherwise informative article, Balter stated: “Much of the radiation exposure [caused by fallout from the Chernobyl nuclear reactor accident], for example, could have been countered by rapid administration of nonradioactive iodine to `flush out’ the radioactive isotopes from binding sites in the thyroid.'’

In fact, radioactive isotopes, once bound in the thyroid, cannot be flushed out by subsequent administration of nonradioactive iodine. To be effective in preventing the uptake and binding of radioactive isotopes, stable iodine must be administered before exposure. A daily 130-mg dose of stable KI, starting one-half hour to one day before the arrival of fallout or other material contaminated with radioactive iodine, will effectively saturate the thyroid, giving 99% effective protection. A 130-mg tablet or four drops of a saturated solution of KI may be used.

Why am I talking about this?  Well, back to the first paragraph.  Why are illegal aliens carrying such things in their pockets?  Have they been hoodwinked to think these tablets were some kind of drug? Or are they fully, completely aware of the use of these tablets?  My educated guess is that they know full well the use of the chemicals involved. 

That brings me to "Why are they carrying this into the United States, as illegals?"  Are they somehow aware of something the rest of us are NOT?  Are they aware there will be an "incident"?  Are they here as some kind of "Red Dawn Force" to spread out across the United States, to cause mayhem and murder when someone sets off a nuclear device within the confines of the United States?  Perhaps dirty bombs are already in place? Or worse, a nuclear device capable of wiping out a whole city?

Knowing that the use of such a chemical to be used prior to a nuclear fallout situation is critical here.  That *I* know I can use this chemical to help prevent my intake of I-131 for instance, is also critical. I’m just your average, every day American. I know these things. Granted I’ve studied these things with a keen interest over the years, I have quite a large military training background and have been through the old NBC and later CBRN courses the military offered.  Does this make me different from some random "illegal immigrant"?  Perhaps yes.  Then someone explain to me WHY illegal immigrants know this information, if they are as the media portrays them, as uneducated for the most part, people with an "American Dream" to come here and work at "jobs you and I wouldn’t want to do"???

I do not know the answer to these things, and I can only speculate at this point, since I’ve not had direct access to the sources that NEIN has had to date.  I can only at this point take Sean Osborne’s word at this.  I’ll ask for sources, but, the truth is most of these folks give information only on the word they will remain anonymous.  I suppose that’s got its good and bad aspects.  I’ll wait, like everyone else to see what is going to happen.

The fact is, I have been completely unable to locate ONE piece of news reporting this, from ANY news organization, whether it is main stream media or otherwise. Not one.  I’ve heard the talk on the internet, I’ve seen some folks mention this in various ways….
