These are in debate now and should move to a full vote in January. We expect the bulk of the resolutions to stay as written....Nick Begich underlining indicates amendment, (1): indicates footnote - having regard to the hearing on HAARP and Non-lethal Weapons held by the Foreign Affairs Subcommitee on Security and Disarmament in Bruxelles on 5. February '98, H (a) (new) whereas nevertheless the military continue to expropriate technologies created for environmental and health purposes for exclusive military use, thereby denying humanity these benefits and instead creating new risks(1), (1) For example, the digital 'Neurophone', a health device, based on US patent number 3,393,279, July 16, 1968, invented by Dr Gillis Patrick Flanagan, was put under a secrecy order by the US Defense Intelligence Agency, Earthpulse Flashpoints No 1, Earthpulse, Alaska, 1996; H (b) (new) whereas, despite the existing conventions, military research is ongoing on environmental manipulation as a weapon, as demonstrated for example by the Alaska-based HAARP system (2); (2) *Convention on Prohibition or Restriction of the use of Certain Conventional Weapon which may be deemed to be Excessively Injurious or to have Indiscriminate Effects*, a 1980 UN treaty which deals with, amongst other types, weapons *that utilise ......electromagnetic energy..... for their effects; United States patent number 4,686,605, *Method and Apparatus for Altering a region in the Earth's Atmosphere, Ionosphere, and/or Magnetosphere*, Bernard Eastlund, APTI, Los Angeles, Jan 10 1985; *Ionospheric Modification and its Potential to Enhance or Degrade the Performance of Military Systems*, Advisory Group for Aerospace Research and Development (AGARD-CP-485), NATO, Neuilly sur Seine, France, Oct '90; Department of Defense News Briefing, Secretary of Defense William Cohen, April 28, 1997, where he says: *Others are engaging in an eco-type of terrorism whereby they can alter climate, set off earthquakes, volcanoes, remotely through the use of electromagnetic waves.*; H (c) (new) whereas there is mounting documented evidence, from as early as the 1960s, much of it from official and military sources, clearly indicating the potential of electromagnetic radiation to profoundly affect humans, positively or negatively, leading to the possibility of new medical treatments and/or methods for manipulation of human central nervous system, including brain function, and even high energy weapons (3); (3) Telegram of Henry Kissinger to the US Embassy in Moscow of April 1976, on the detrimental health effects of the electromagnetic 'Moscow Signals' on the embassy staff; Defense Intelligence Agency Report DST-1808S-38-75, 'Soviet and Czechoslovakian Parapsychology Research', 1988; Meeting Report of the Tri-Service Electromagnetic Radiation Advisory Panel (TERP; US military coordination), 1 May 1989, which refers to 'vulnerability, survivability and effects of electromagnetic beams'; 'Microwave Weapon Design and Performance Envelope' (LA-CP-94-0061), work supported by the US Army Research, Development and Engineering Center (ARDEC), Picatinny Arsenal, New jersey, and, 'Microwave Related Efforts at the Los Alamos National Laboratory' (LA-UR83-150), submitted to: High Power Microwave Technology Conference, Harry Diamond Laboratory, Adelphi, Maryland, 1-3 March 1983; *The Electromagnetic Spectrum in Low-Intensity Conflict*, paper by Capt Paul E Tyler, Medical Command, United States Navy, in *Low Intensity Conflict and Modern Technology*, proceedings of a conference of that title held at Maxwell Air Force Base, Alabama, March 1984, sponsored by the Air University Ceter for Aerospace Doctrine, Research and Education (CADRE), June 1986, which deals explicitly with the possibilities of using electromagnetic weapons to affect the human Central Nervous System, specifically mentioning the potential for fatal results; *New World Vistas: Air and Space Power for the 21st Century - Ancilliary volume, Scientific Advisory Board (Air Force), Washington DC, document no: 19960618040, 1996, p 89-90; *The Mind has no Firewall*, Timoty L Thomas, in 'Paramaters', Quaterly Journal of the US Army War College, Spring 1998; H (d) (new) whereas there is also mounting evidence of the use of such weapons, for example against the US Embassy in Moscow in the 60s, on the women protesters at Greenham Common, via what the US Air Force Headquarters 501st Security Police Group refer to as a 'superfence', and more recently against the Iraqi troops during the Gulf War (4), and whereas academics at Queen Elizabeth College in the UK advise the NATO Advanced Research Group on these matters, (4)Telegram of Henry Kissinger to the US Embassy in Moscow of April 1976, on the detrimental health effects of the electromagnetic 'Moscow Signals' on the embassy staff; 'Hi-Tech Psychological Warfare arrives in the Middle East', Bulletin, 23 March 1991, ITV London News Bureau Ltd, quoting accounts from Iraqi troops explaining the negative psychological effects of the electromagnetic transmissions; H (e) (new) whereas, in particular, the US military, and possibly others, wish to develop the full potential of electromagnetic weaponry, and continue to research and test this in relative secrecy, with a view to both global and internal security, despite concerns about both their potential for interfering with the functioning of the human central nervous system, with the as yet unimaginable consequences that may have, and their causing even further global environmental disruption and health problems, as well as new types of weapons proliferation and even a new arms race in this field (5), (5) 'Future Agenda', US Congressional Clearinghouse on the Future, chaired by now Vice- President Al Gore, 1982, referring to 'offensive microwave systems'; *The Revolution in Military Affairs and Conflict Short of War*, US Army War College, 1994; H (f) (new) whereas the focus of weapons research is shifting towards the control of domestic populations, which would not breach current international treaties, as reflected in the extensive development of so-called 'non-lethal' or 'less-than-lethal' technologies (6), and whereas the US is continuing the development and deployment of space based weapons systems, despite the environmental impact of launching them, and the serious environmental and health risks posed by accidents associated with any use of radioactive materials (RTGs) as power sources; (6) *The New Mental Battlefield*, John Alexander, US Army's journal 'Military Review', December 1980, thought to be the origin of the term 'non-lethal weapons'; *Report of the Attorney General's Conference on Less than Lethal Weapons*, Sherri Sweetman, US Dept of Justice (NII), March 1987; *Non-lethality: A Global Strategy* - White paper, Janet Morris, Research Director, US Global Strategy Council (USGSC),1991, dealing with 'life-conserving technologies', amongst others: laser blinding systems, non-lethl electromagnetic technologies, non-nuclear electromagnetic pulse weapons, and high-power microwaves (HPM); Department of Defense Directive, Policy for Non-Lethal Weapons, Office of the Assistant Secretary of Defense, Draft, July 21, 1994, officially linking these weapons with internal security; H (g) (new) whereas the experience of the development and use of nuclear power 'for peaceful purposes' serves as a salutory warning as to how military secrecy can prevent proper assessment and supervision of mixed civilian/military technologies if transparency is in any way compromised, H (h) (new) whereas, with hindsight, it is clear that allowing the military to operate in secret has not protected their secrets from their perceived enemies, and has in fact enabled all sorts of excesses, including environmental and health ones, so that they have come to threaten the security they purport to provide, leading to an urgent need to open up well informed discussion, with full access to documentation and witnesses, about all implications of military activities, including those regarding the environment and health, with a view to a more reasonable balance between the security system and the actual security of the public; Before 1 (new) Therefore calls on the military to end all activities which contribute to damaging the environment and health and to undertake all steps necessary to clean up and decontamine the polluted areas, and that the military should be made to pay compensation for the damaged areas and for health damage to victims; Before 1 (new) Regards the the continuing development of 'star wars' SDI systems, and use of radioactive energy sources (RTGs) in space craft by both military and civilian space programs (eg Cassini which will make an earth flyby next year), and and calls for an immediate halt to such activity, since in particular it is now possible in almost all missions to develop solar panels as alternatives to RTGs. 14. Calls on the European Union to seek to have all of the new so-called 'non-lethal' or 'less-than-lethal' weapons technologies, including in particular all forms of electromagnetic weaponry and the development of new arms strategies also covered and regulated and ultimately banned by international conventions as soon as reasonably possible (7); (7) for example: *Prohibition of the Development and Manufacture of New Types of Weapons of Mass Destruction and New Systems of Such Weapons*, proposed draft by Soviet Union, UN, 1975, augmented in 1979 with a reference to electromagnetic weaponry, from 'The UN and Disarmament, 1945-85, UN, 1985 (E.8S.IX.6); 14 (a) (new) Calls in particular for an international convention for a global ban on all research and development, whether military or civilian, which seeks to apply knowledge of the chemical, electrical, sound vibration or other functioning of the human brain to the development of systems which might enable any form of manipulation of human beings for anything other than health purposes, including a ban on any actual or possible deployment of such systems; 15. Regards the US military ionospheric manipulation system, HAARP (High Frequency Active Auroral Research Project), based in Alaska, which is only a part of the development and deployment of electromagnetic weaponry for both external and internal security use, as an example of the most serious emering military threat to the global environment and human health, as it seeks to interfere with the highly sensitive and energtic section of the biosphere for military purposes, while all of its consequences are not clear, and calls on the Commission, Council and the Member States to press the US Government, Russia and any other state involved in such activities to cease, leading to a global convetion aginst such weaponry; believes instead that ionospheric research should only be conducted in a non-disruptive way in the realm of pure civilian science; 15 (a) (new) Calls for the release of all patents developed in the civilian field which have been expropriated by the military, for compensation to be paid by the military to those who owned those patents, and for an end to this practice, which deprives humanity of technologies which could be useful for environmental and health purposes; 15 (b) (new) Calls for a Committee of Inquiry to investigate the very extensive research in this field, and in particular the multidinous claims of victims of being exposed to various forms of electromagnetic systems and other so-called 'non-lethal' weapons, to include in particular the claims of the women of Greenham Common, but not limited to victims within the EU, so that former Iraqi troops or others could at least be interviewed; 15 (c) (new) Believes that no secure position can be taken on standards for human exposure to electromagnetic radiation until all research is fully reviewed, including that subject to military secrecy, and until the prospect of the use of this technology by the military has been eliminated by international treaty; Dr. Nick Begich P.
