U.S. Drops Fleas With Bubonic Plague on North Korea<\/a><\/h3>\n

This happened some 63 years ago, but as the U.S. government has never stopped lying about it, and it\u2019s generally known only outside the United States, I\u2019m going to treat it as news.<\/p>\n

Here in our little U.S. bubble we\u2019ve heard of a couple versions of a film called\u00a0The Manchurian Candidate.<\/em>\u00a0We\u2019ve heard of the general concept of \u201cbrainwashing\u201d and may even associate it with something evil that the Chinese supposedly did to U.S. prisoners during the Korean War. And I\u2019d be willing to bet that the majority of people who\u2019ve heard of these things have at least a vague sense that they\u2019re bullshit.<\/p>\n

If you didn\u2019t know, I\u2019ll break it to you right now: people cannot actually be programed like the Manchurian candidate, which was a work of fiction. There was never the slightest evidence that China or North Korea had done any such thing. And the CIA spent decades trying to do such a thing, and finally gave up.<\/p>\n

I\u2019d also be willing to bet that very few people know what it was that the U.S. government promoted the myth of \u201cbrainwashing\u201d to cover up. During the Korean War, the United States bombed virtually all of North Korea and a good bit of the South, killing millions of people. It dropped massive quantities of Napalm. It bombed dams, bridges, villages, houses. This was all-out mass-slaughter. But there was something the U.S. government didn\u2019t want known, something deemed unethical in this genocidal madness.<\/p>\n

It is\u00a0well documented<\/a>\u00a0that the United States dropped on China and North Korea insects and feathers carrying anthrax, cholera, encephalitis, and bubonic plague. This was supposed to be a secret at the time, and the Chinese response of mass vaccinations and insect eradication probably contributed to the project\u2019s general failure (hundreds were killed, but not millions).<\/p>\n
