This review is from: Zapping of America: Microwaves, Their Deadly Risk and Cover-Up (Paperback)
I happened on this excellent book in the local library, and saw that it promised to reveal a lot about a great ongoing cover-up about an important public health issue, involving massive, systematic scientific fraud, the CIA and international politics - a one-stop shop for a conspiracy nut that I was then in the late seventies.
I was amazed to find that the US embassy in Moscow had been systematically bombarded by pulsed microwave radiation from the 50's up to the seventies, from a transmitter across the street, and that three US ambassadors in a row ended up with cancer and the entire staff had developed accute health problems in this period.The book detailed how this had all been covered up by the Americans. The then crusading US journalist Jack Anderson had blown the lid off this scandal - code-named "Project Pandora" by their authorities - that no one in government would talk about. The US embassy had become a danger posting resulting from this irradiation by the Soviets. Staff was given "danger pay" for working there. Years later, freedom of Information requests revealed the horrific toll on embassy staff that had endured these elevated electromagnetic fields. Everyone literally had gotten sick with cancer, heart problems, nervous breakdows etc. The joke was that the US was maintaining that "zapping" of the low level chronic type used in "The Moscow Signal" couldn't possibly harm a flea, while the Russians held that it was dangerous and that human behaviour, brain function and mood etc. could easily be altered by beaming EM Radiation at specific frequencies at an individual or a target group. In fact their EMR safety limit values were then 1000 times more stingent (lower) than those maintained by the US authorities, who, to this day still allow their citizens to be exposed to levels millions - literally - of times higher than are sustainable via the ubiquitous cell and cordless phones, WiFi, "smart meters" - the list is now endless, the health issues are now mounting.
Author Paul Brodeur, was the first to detail how research into the effects of EM radiation on health was being influenced by what Dwight Eisenhower warned in his farewell address to Congress the "scientific-technological elite", controlled by the "power of money". And this is exactly what has become the world's present dilemna where science is bought and paid for by industry and the "military-industrial complex. I was fortunate to read this brave account, and to know better than to mess with this new form of pollution which is making folks sick all over the world.
