"To give a political spin to what is going on, Victoria notes, "The most readily available weapons of mass destruction are in the supermarkets and convenience stores. And there is nothing hidden or secret about their locations!" If you do the research, you will find that the rising disease statistics parallel the increasing pollution of both the food supply and our planet. We are being bombarded by toxic food, water and air. For many of us, our work environments and homes are polluted. Even our clothes, rugs and cleaning materials are made of and reek of antilife chemicals." - Susan E. Schenck, The Live Food Factor: The Comprehensive Guide to the Ultimate Diet for Body, Mind, Spirit & Planet (Get the book.)

"Just ridding the body of cancer through "weapons of mass destruction" fails to remove the unresolved emotional pain behind it. Chapter Four Body Intelligence in Action Cancer Cannot Kill You Cancer, like any other disease, is not a clearly definable phenomenon that suddenly and randomly appears in some part or parts of the body like mushrooms popping out of the ground. Cancer is rather the result of many crises of toxicity that have, as their common origin, one or more energy-depleting influences." - Andreas Moritz, Cancer Is Not A Disease - It's A Survival Mechanism (Get the book.)

"Terrorists might step up their operations, or they might get hold of weapons of mass destruction and really do some damage. Well, let us suppose the terrorists were to bring down more airplanes. According to University of Michigan researchers, they'd have to crash as many planes as they did on September 11 every single month of the year in order for the risk of flying to equal the risk of driving a car. Or, suppose terrorists were to set off a dirty bomb? Yes, it would increase the radiation level. Enough to harm many people? Maybe, maybe not. No one really knows." - William Bonner, Lila Rajiva, Mobs, Messiahs, and Markets: Surviving the Public Spectacle in Finance and Politics (Agora Series) (Get the book.)

"The Bush administration told Americans that the United States must invade Iraq because of proof that Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass destruction and was connected to Al Qaeda; while the mental health establishment told us, over an even longer period of time, that depressed patients need serotonin- and other neurotransmitter-enhancing drugs because a deficiency of such chemicals caused depression. The Bush administration and the mental health establishment have now retreated from their earlier positions, but neither has spent a great deal of time or energy acknowledging errors." - Bruce E. Levine, Surviving America's Depression Epidemic: How to Find Morale, Energy, and Community in a World Gone Crazy (Get the book.)

"The population is so dumb that the President of the United States can tell the country it is invading Iraq because there are weapons of mass destruction there, and then when no weapons are found, the president can say, "Well, we should have invaded anyway." People actually buy into the fact that preemptive defense is acceptable, war is peace and that attacking other countries is a defense of our country. It is classic 1984 language: War is peace, or similarly, freedom means giving up your rights." - Mike Adams, Spam Filters for Your Brain (Get the book.)

"After an initial flurry of concern, people also glossed over Warren Buffett's warnings about derivatives, which he characterized as "financial weapons of mass destruction." Yet he would eventually seem prescient after he wrote in Berkshire Hathaway's 2002 annual report that "[t]hese instruments will almost certainly multiply in variety and number until some event makes their toxicity clear." Few paid attention to warnings from Eric Breval, the head of the $15.5 billion Swiss state pension fund, in a November 2005 Bloomberg report." - Michael J. Panzner, Financial Armageddon: Protecting Your Future from Four Impending Catastrophes (Get the book.)

"This is analogous to the US government's 2001-2004 claim that the Iraqi government possessed "weapons of mass destruction" ("WMDs"). After invading Iraq and failing to find WMDs, the US government claimed that these weapons had been destroyed, or that they were cleverly hidden. The continuing failure to find WMDs was then presented as being "consistent" with the "prediction" that these weapons would not be found for the above-stated reasons. Yet, these predictions were based on ad hoc hypotheses developed after the embarrassing failure to find WMDs." - Jay Joseph, The Missing Gene: Psychiatry, Heredity, and the Fruitless Search for Genes (Get the book.)

"Just ridding the body of cancer through 'weapons of mass destruction' doesn't remove the unresolved emotional pain behind it. (See Chapter 7 about my approaches for restoring emotional health.) The Power of Resolving Conflict Situations Unresolved conflict is mostly likely the starting point of any illness, including cancer. The body always uses the stress response to cope with the traumatizing effect of conflict." - Andreas Moritz, Timeless Secrets of Health & Rejuvenation: Unleash The Natural Healing Power That Lies Dormant Within You (Get the book.)

"Iraq in late March of2003 to rid the world of Saddam Hussein's weapons of mass destruction. Representatives of two other companies buying PPKGO coffee (Equal Exchange and Green Mountain) were going to join me on this trip, as neither company had visited these farmers before. Both companies backed out, fearing some sort of retribution from the locals (98 percent Muslim) due to the impending invasion. I knew better. The most populous Muslim nation on earth was also the most religiously tolerant, and Christian, Muslim, Hindu, and Buddhist communities lived in relative harmony." - Dean Cycon, Javatrekker: Dispatches From the World of Fair Trade Coffee (Get the book.)

"Another component of the new state-versus-nonstate warfare is systems disruption, strategic attacks without the use of weapons of mass destruction. This type of warfare uses our systems against us. For example, on 9/11 the transportation system was used as a weapon. In Iraq, attacks against power systems, oil pipelines, and social connections have hollowed out the newly emerging state." - Alex Steffen, Worldchanging: A User's Guide for the 21st Century (Get the book.)

"They planted fake stories about where exactly Saddam had stashed his weapons of mass destruction. They used a paid operative, who masqueraded as a freelancer for the Australian Broadcasting Corporation. What made them pick Australia? Because, under U.S. law, the government is not supposed to be directing its propaganda at the American public. That's supposed to be the job of American journalists! And how well they did it. There was Ms. Miller—the Madame Roland of the New York Times—giving heads-up to the Iraq flimflam right on the front pages of the gray lady." - William Bonner, Lila Rajiva, Mobs, Messiahs, and Markets: Surviving the Public Spectacle in Finance and Politics (Agora Series) (Get the book.) "Bush and Tony Blair may have actually believed that there were weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. Reason is slave to our wishes. Our minds work for our desires, not the other way around. "The brain is merely the heart's dupe," said French writer and philosopher La Rochefoucauld. But there are different kinds of facts. The little white lies we tell ourselves and each other to get through life gracefully are not the big, mass illusions of the public spectacle. Global freezing—who can forget that? It was widely believed in the 1960s and 1970s that the planet was getting colder." - William Bonner, Lila Rajiva, Mobs, Messiahs, and Markets: Surviving the Public Spectacle in Finance and Politics (Agora Series) (Get the book.)

"Strong-arm regimes come to power in the Southern Hemisphere, determined to use armed force to right perceived wrongs. • Regional wars erupt in the traditional hot spots and spread to neighboring countries. • The major military-political-economic power blocs decide to make use of their arsenals of hi-tech weaponry to achieve their economic and political objectives. • Some among the new strong-arm regimes employ nuclear, chemical, or biological weapons to resolve regional conflicts. • War fought with conventional and nonconventional weapons escalates to the global level." - Ervin Laszlo, Quantum Shift in the Global Brain: How the New Scientific Reality Can Change Us and Our World (Get the book.)

"Like the intelligence services' warnings of weapons of mass destruction in Iraq, his depiction of the circumstances prevailing in Constantinople at the time was inaccurate. Much of it seemed fanciful. Though the initial conquest was fairly easy and glorious, subsequent events were less so. The local population rose up against the invaders. The city had to be retaken; this time, the battle was bloodier, and thousands of innocent citizens were put to the sword. As near as historians can tell, the Venetians earned no lasting gain or benefit." - William Bonner, Addison Wiggin, Empire of Debt: The Rise of an Epic Financial Crisis (Get the book.)

"Second, international treaties, like the land-mine treaty, when backed by effective monitoring and enforcement, can not only help prevent weapons of mass destruction from falling into the wrong hands, but they can cool down conflicts (and save lives) by cutting off the flow of weapons to bad actors. In addition, diplomatic efforts, when backed by strong coalitions and sanctions, can undermine the ability of aggressive nations to pose a threat, and give them real reason to play nice. Third, nations can intentionally adopt defensive military postures." - Alex Steffen, Worldchanging: A User's Guide for the 21st Century (Get the book.)

"Donald Henderson, an expert on infectious diseases, smallpox eradication, and now bioterrorism, wrote: "Of the weapons of mass destruction (nuclear, chemical, and biological), the biological ones are the most greatly feared, but the country is least well prepared to deal with them."49 Of particular concern is the role of biotechnology in developing weapons of bioterrorism." - Marion Nestle, Safe Food: Bacteria, Biotechnology, and Bioterrorism (Get the book.)

"The ostensible reason for the war—that Saddam Hussein possessed nuclear, biological, or chemical weapons of mass destruction (WMDs)—was ultimately proven erroneous, but to label it a mendacious ploy is unmerited. The precipitating justification for the war was Saddam Hussein's refusal to let UN inspectors visit all the sites they deemed necessary to look through. Among these were a dozen extensive underground bunkers engineered by German contractors during the 1980s. The bunkers had been labeled "presidential palaces" by Saddam and placed off limits to UN inspectors." - James Howard Kunstler, The Long Emergency: Surviving the End of Oil, Climate Change, and Other Converging Catastrophes of the Twenty-First Century (Get the book.)

"In fact, our own military went to Iraq looking for weapons of mass destruction, which included mustard gas. Chemotherapy shuts down your body from making white blood cells, the natural soldiers that fight diseases; then shuts down your whole immune system, leaving you with no way for your body to fight disease. Only about 3 percent of the people who take chemo survive the suffering and ordeal. These seem to be the ones whose immune systems are so that it can survive the onslaught of chemotherapy.

Today, I am one of the first to come forward from the inside and tell you the truth about the people who run "big pharma." You may be under the illusion that drug companies have officers and directors whose sole passion in life is to prevent and cure disease for the benefit of mankind. But I am pulling back the curtain and exposing the great Oz for the fraud that he really is. You may hear the cry "pay no attention to the man behind the curtain," but do not be deceived." - Kevin Trudeau, Natural Cures They Don't Want You to Know About (Get the book.)

"Though the use of organophosphates as growth promoters has now been banned, these former weapons of mass destruction are still one of the most common pesticides, and therefore continue to be found as residues in many of our foods. It really doesn't matter how you are exposed, whether it is from a can of fly spray or from pesticide residues in food. Once the chemicals get into your body, the chances are your weight-control systems will be damaged, making it just that little bit harder to lose weight in the future." - Dr. Paula Baillie-Hamilton, Toxic Overload: A Doctor's Plan for Combating the Illnesses Caused by Chemicals in Our Foods, Our Homes, and Our Medicine Cabinets (Get the book.)

"Today, we know that the weapons of mass destruction are human-made chemicals, causing our current plague of chronic and degenerative diseases, and they are found in those substances intended to kill bugs, slugs, dandelions as well as in most of the drugs manufactured to fight cancer, impotence, heart disease, arthritis and other illnesses. These chemicals are the basis of an amoral economic system that sells toxic chemicals in all their forms with the promise of perfect lawns, perfect agricultural produce, perfectly hygienic kitchens, perfect white laundry, and perfect magic-bullet drugs." - Helke Ferrie, Dispatches From the War Zone of Environmental Health (Get the book.)

"This dreadful machine of destruction —an exploding population, combined with an environmental holocaust, the growth of fundamentalism, the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction, technology that alienates on every level, a mass media addicted to triviality, and a human race in a state of perpetual, despairing motion —is a confluence of devastating forces that is supremely intelligent in a black way. This is what the mystics of the Christian tradition call the anti-Christ. But this is not the only thing that is going on." - APC Books, Healing Our Planet, Healing Our Selves: The Power of change Within to Change the World (Get the book.) "Right now we're in a global crisis, an emergency filled with terrible and dangerous symptoms: violence, environmental destruction, proliferation of weapons of mass destruction, dire poverty and the suffering of billions. It can either be an apocalyptic crisis of destruction; or it can become a crisis of birth —a beginning rather than an end. If we can get through the planetary crisis quickly enough so that we don't destroy our own life-support system, or blow ourselves up, then we can see immense possibilities for a positive future." - APC Books, Healing Our Planet, Healing Our Selves: The Power of change Within to Change the World (Get the book.) "We wage them with increasingly monstrous weapons of mass destruction, ones that kill massive groups of people as though they were things; in the process we poison our Earth as well. Avoiding self-awareness ?and instead projecting —is a fatal thinking dysfunction. We are faced with more of a psychological and developmental crisis than a political or religious one. This situation is also an opportunity, in that it requires us to acquire a whole new capacity to perceive, in order to heal ourselves." - APC Books, Healing Our Planet, Healing Our Selves: The Power of change Within to Change the World (Get the book.) "We are now seeing—on a get to nature is a salad, massive and seemingly unstoppable scale —is the spread of the selling of weapons of mass destruction. There is not necessarily a growth of evil. There is a growth of the absolutely lethal powers that evil now has in its control. The fifth head is something we are all very well aware of. The technological worldview has created a great cement garden here on the planet. At the very moment when we need to be connected to nature at every level, the closest most people get to nature is a salad." - APC Books, Healing Our Planet, Healing Our Selves: The Power of change Within to Change the World (Get the book.)

"Two world wars were waged with new weapons of mass destruction; the interval between them was marked by the subjection of much of Europe to grim totalitarian domination. By 1945, Europe lay devastated, its fate and that of the world in the hands of the two atomic superpowers, liberal-democratic America and communist Russia." - The New York Times, The New York Times Guide to Essential Knowledge: A Desk Reference for the Curious Mind (Get the book.) "The most serious charge was that the government of Saddam Hussein had built an arsenal of weapons of mass destruction and thus posed a threat to regional stability and world peace. Although the United Nations and many European governments questioned these claims and urged restraint, Bush ordered an invasion in March 2003. Joined by forces from Great Britain, the U. S. quickly toppled the government of Saddam Hussein and then commenced a very difficult occupation in an effort to establish a representative Iraqi government." - The New York Times, The New York Times Guide to Essential Knowledge: A Desk Reference for the Curious Mind (Get the book.)

"Following the Aum Shinrikyo attack in Tokyo, Nunn, echoing concern about postmodern terrorism, said: "The number one security challenge in the United States now and probably for years ahead is to prevent these weapons of mass destruction, whether chemical, biological or nuclear, and the scientific knowledge of how to make them, from going all over the world to rogue groups, to terrorist groups, to rogue nations."94 "As we enter the twenty-first century, we may well be facing weapons of mass destruction used not on the batdefield by warriors," wrote U.S." - Laurie Garrett, Betrayal of Trust: The Collapse of Global Public Health (Get the book.)

"REPPED: Introduction Reporting on Crime and Progress The weapons of mass destruction have been found, at least in medicine, and only we—the people, the consumers, the patients—can stop their proliferation by rouge corporations and their buddies in government. We have known about them for a long time actually, but their origins have been attributed to different sources over time. In antiquity, malevolent deities were thought responsible for the plagues that wiped out city-states and later caused economic disaster for the Roman Empire." - Helke Ferrie, Dispatches From the War Zone of Environmental Health (Get the book.)
