Why are Citizens being attacked? Mar. 01, 08
Nothing in this world is more alarming then the fact that U. S. Citizens are being attacked
and done harm by the U S Government Satellite Program.
I was attacked while in Ohio early last year, March and April, after some traveling to
Oklahoma, and on to Amarillo, Texas. Apparently, this torturing started before my trip West, for I
suffered substantially, prior to that time, not realizing what was happening to me.
Throughout 06-07 winter, October until my journey West in March, I suffered an
agonizing experience of an equal consequence. At that time, I consider it much more evil and
more deadly, for it was done within my home, day and night, while sleeping, while eating, while
using the bathroom.
You may ask “how can a person be harm, tortured I would say, within their home and not
be able to defend themselves.” My understanding was revealing when I thought back to how
Russia, in the Cold War, beamed energies into the United States Embassy office building in
Moscow, Russia. It wasn’t until some time that the administrations in Moscow realize what was
happening, mainly because there was no way of knowing what was happening to the individuals
while on duty. I don’t remember the details of the occurrences, but apparently the people there at
the Embassy became sickly and this bombardment of energies hindered their work.
Could the government in this country, pick out individual citizens who may have irritated
a few people, doing them harm? The only reason I’m able to protect myself from this tormenting
affect, is my understanding of what actually happened in the Embassy in Moscow. Beams of
energy at a specific frequency converging at some designated intersect, namely me while minding
my affairs here in my home, tormenting and doing me harm.
I’m sure you are extremely hesitant about even thinking such a thing is happening. Yes,
this was my first thought when Satellites defense technology came to mind, “is it possible?”
“Could it be, someone like me, am under surveillance, attacked by such high tech equipment?” No
Way! I thought. But, after weeks of suffering its affect, I discovered truly, satellites are involved.
It was recent I’ve been able to pinpoint the exact direction of those invading my privacy,
remembering the U S Embassy in Moscow, Russia. I decided it would do no good to contact the
Police Dept. “Where’s the harm?” “Where’s the evidence?”—only those who are involved would
understand such uncivilized tactics. Spying and harm goes on today and now. Are you willing to
believe such evil, is happening, is going on in my home? The End.
I have been out of work since November 2007. My unemployment benefits ran out last month. I am 53 old and have worked hard all my life. I've paid taxes all my life, and this is how my country is treating me. Unbelievable. Totally disgusting. So anytime I am not looking for a job, I will spend time and dedicate to making sure any politician that votes nay on not extending unemployment insurance will be out of a job their next term by informing the public of their decision in every forum available. I will encourage others to do so as well.
