Aceh Autopsy
`
`
I.
`
Associated Press sent out four
seemingly separate newsstories
about the 2004 tsunami, all
dated December 18th.
`
One story calls "the Acehnese
people...a long-ignored Indone-
sian minority"; but states they
"were already suffering through
a bloody separatist movement
and a brutal government crack-
down when the sea rose up...."
`
"...in Aceh...100-foot walls of
water slamm[ed] into the coast
at more than 350 mph."
`
"In a moment, tens of thousands
of people were dead and much of
Aceh's coastline was in ruins."
`
All this had an effect on the
the Acehnese war for national
liberation.
`
For one thing, it suddenly be-
came easier to insert alien
"aid"-lings to further under-
mine Acehnese resistance.
`
`
II.
`
The New Zealand Herald reported
September 25, 1999:
`
"Top-secret wartime experiments
were conducted off the coast of
Auckland to perfect a tidal wave
bomb...."
`
"...[the] work was considered so
significant that United States
defence chiefs said that if the
project had been completed be-
fore the end of the war it could
have played a role as effective
as that of the atom bomb."
`
"Papers stamped 'top secret'
show the US and British military
were eager for [Project] Seal to
be developed in the post-war
years too."
`
"It is unclear what happened to
Project Seal once the final re-
port was forwarded to Welling-
ton Defence Headquarters late in
the 1940s."
`
The Herald recently interviewed
a former colleague of the head
of Project Seal.
`
He speculated "Whether it could
ever be resurrected..."; and de-
clared "Under some circumstances
I think it could be devastating."
`
`
III.
`
The actual circumstance was The
Superpower's
`
Declaration of World $lavery.
`
A principal clause of that de-
claration:
`
THERE SHALL BE NO FREEDOM
`
EVER AGAIN
`
ANYWHERE
`
including in "long-ignored" Aceh.
