The main points of the Russian report are at the end of this article.

The US’s massive biological weapons program which has continued since the late 1940s, ought to be a much bigger issue than it is. Especially after Covid, a direct outcome of that program, which harmed, woke up, and galvanized so many people. It is clearly one of the greatest risks facing humanity today.

For Christian readers, we all know of the plagues envisioned in the Book of Revelation, and in the prophecies of the saints. They could easily come from the US program.

In April of 2024, I wrote a long article about Russian claims of U.S. biolabs surrounding Russia and the U.S.’s biological weapons program in general:

I pointed out that several prominent voices in the US were mirroring Russian claims. These included RFK Jr., Tulsi Gabbard, Senator Rand Paul, and Tucker Carlson.

8 months later, the Russian general heading the department making the allegations from the Russian side, General Igor Kirillov, was assassinated in Moscow ostensibly by Ukrainian secret services but who knows on whose orders. It was very big news, especially in Russia. Obviously, some very powerful people wanted to send a message discouraging further investigation.

From the Guardian

The Guardian and other major media dutifully avoided mentioning the glaringly obvious reason Kirillov was whacked: his accusations were getting attention in the West, and reaching influential voices. He had receipts.

Now is a good time to mention, I am in excellent health, and in no way suicidal!

It always struck me as strange that this absolutely massive story was not getting more traction in the West, given the prominence of the voices mentioned above making allegations and also the serious informational resources of the Russian government.

In the article, I also summarized RFK Jr.’s remarkable 2023 book entitled The Wuhan Cover-Up. He made some astounding allegations there which had not bee widely understood in the western public. Here is that summary:

1. US secret services have been obsessed with bioweapons since the end of WW2, when, in their brilliance, they embraced them as a great way to fight the USSR.

2. A long and grisly history of the US using them against opponents over the decades, and of testing them on their own population and other countries, all kept top secret.

3. Vaccine development is inherent in bioweapons development, because the whole idea of bioweapons is to invent one, and then come up with a vaccine for it, so that you can use it on your opponent without your side getting sick.

4. The driver of gain-of-function research is not antidotes to diseases, rather invention of bioweapons.

5. Deep state used 9/11 to justify massive expansion of program, fed deceptively to the public as defensive measures against ‘terrorism’.

6. Huge amounts of your tax $ have been spent on this, many, many billions, sucking huge numbers of brains out of science that might actually help humanity. The funding is so large that it has swallowed and corrupted the whole medical, pharma, academia, publishing, public health agency panopoly, with everything now focused on weapons and vaccines and pandemic response, i.e. lockdowns, censorship, etc.. A lot of the funding has come in in true spook style, through cutouts and fake ‘foundations’.

7. This research was done all over the world, including, counterintuitively, in collaboration with the Chinese. (the book provides a good explanation of why this actually makes sense).

8. Covid was a US bioweapon which was released, either accidentally or deliberately.

9. There are currently US connected 400 bioweapons labs scattered around the world, fed by this gusher of money coming from US taxpayers.

10. This blob is demanding, among other things, Orwellian tracking, surveillance, and censorship, because it’s a ‘national security’ issue. The whole thing has morphed into one of the biggest drivers of globalism.

11. Conclusion - shut the whole damn thing down before it destroys humanity.

At the time, the US government denied this as “conspiracy theories” and “Russian propaganda”. Tulsi Gabbard’s announcement of last week now prove that the Russians and the American dissenters were correct.

The main argument of my article was that many decades of heavy funding of these activities, not only within the defense establishment, but in academia, in the pharmaceutical industry, and in the media had created a self-sustaining “all of society” “blob’”which had corrupted and perverted even civilian medicine. I compared it to the censorship industrial complex, a term coined by Mike Benz as he he explained how government funding of censorship had corrupted large parts of civil society.

In the wake of Gabbard’s announcement last week, some Russian journalists, who I had worked with on my 2024 article, and who had been covering this subject for years, reached out and said they could provide research compiled by them with a lot of of facts about US bio labs in Armenia. They say that much of the information in the report was sourced from Russian sources politnavigator.news and news-pravda.com, and Armenian sites golosarmenii.am, livenews.am and the Azeri site bakunetwork.org.

Obviously, there is no way to ascertain whether the allegations in this research are true or not, but in light of the recently exposed lying by the US government and the confirmation of previous Russian claims they merit serious consideration. It appears that similar research exists for other countries in the region.

Upon reading it, I decided that the best way to to present this research to the public would be to list what seemed to be the most serious and relevant allegations and then provide a full translation of it, plus the original Russian for those who want to dig deeper. (Link below).

I regret that I don’t have more time to dig into this story deeper, but I want to appeal to my journalistic colleagues that this is an absolutely massive story with huge ramifications and is certainly one of the greatest dangers facing humanity in our age. I encourage others to keep digging because there is much more to uncover.

14 of the main points of the report follow below. Here is a link to the full translation of the article plus orginal Russian text:

Russian Report on US biolabs in Armenia.

---

1. Currently there are 12 biolabs in Armenia located in all regions of the country. 7 of them were operational as of 2018. They are part of a broader network of similar labs in Georgia and Azerbaijan. They are overseen by the Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA), a defense and combat support agency within the Department of War. Cooperation began back in 2008.

2. Some of the biolabs whose work was interrupted in Ukraine after the Russian invasion were transferred to Armenia.

3. Some of these biolabs are located in densely populated residential areas, some next to kindergartens and playgrounds, in violation of safety standards. Locations mentioned are Yerevan (3 labs), Gyumri, Martuni, and Vayots Dzor.

4. Russia estimates that the Pentagon has spent in excess of $200 million on these labs from 2011 - 2024.

5. Studies with scary names have been conducted or are planned. Some examples:

   1. “Study of Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever”, test group to include children under the age of 12.

   2. “Intestinal Infections among hospitalized patients with fever in Armenia”,

   3. “Assessment of Brucellosis in Hospitalized Patients in Armenia in 2016,”

   4. “Retrospective Review to Describe Selected Zoonotic and Arboviral Etiologies in Hospitalized Patients with Fever in Armenia.”

6. Unique biomaterials are being collected, and maps compiled of the possible spread of pathogens across Armenia, Georgia, Azerbaijan, Turkey, Northern Iran, southern Russia, (Krasnodar, Stavropol, and Kalmykia regions) and her 5 Caucasus republics (Chechnya, Dagestan, Northern Ossetia, Kabardino-Balkaria, and Karachai-Cherkessia.) Pathogens studied include African swine fever, plague, tularemia, and many more. Russian experts have identified mutating viruses in Armenia which are spreading through the Western hemisphere.

7. Labs in the Armenia / Georgia / Azerbaijan network have participated in experiments related to using insects to transmit infections. Asian tiger mosquitos have appeared in Armenia recently. This species is known for carrying Dengue, Chikungunya, and Zika fevers. In 2024 there was a breakout of West Nile Virus in Armenia.

8. Armenia is an ideal testing ground for conducting secret, dangerous, biological experiments. One reason is that the Armenian ethnos is one of the most ancient in the world, which Russian analysts claim make it of “particular interest” in developing genetic weapons. Other factors are Armenia’s location, the willingness of its government to collaborate with Western countries, and its political and military instability.

9. The official line from the Pentagon is that these biolabs are to prevent outbreaks, however Russia points out that they are in fact dual use, and could easily be used for offensive bio-military use.

10. The Pentagon claims that this activity is subject to Armenian legislation and the Armenian Ministry of Health. Russian analysts claim that this is a smokescreen, and in fact there is no real oversight or control by the Armenian government.

11. There has been pushback from Armenian journalists, public figures, and civil society groups such as Voice of the People, A1+, and Journalistic Alternative, alarmed by the possible dangers involved. They have been rebuffed in their attempts to get more information about the labs, and have concluded that in fact their activity is being completely hidden from the Armenian public. In 2020, ex Minister of Defense Seyran Ohanyan spoke out against the labs, claiming Armenia had “compromised its national sovereignty by handing over its epidemiological monitoring to 3rd party contractors.”

12. In 2024, strains of SAR-2 virus collected in Turkey were conveyed to Colonel Kevin Steele, US Military Attache at the US Embassy in Armenia using “dead drops”, a spy technique meant to hide such transfers.

13. Subcontractors and involved entities include Eco-Health Alliance, CH2M Hill, Black & Veatch, ACCU Medical Reference Lab, and Battele Memorial Institute, Southern Research Institute, Monsanto, and Pioneer Hi-Bred International, some of which are active in similar activities across the former USSR.

14. The document names names of “Pentagon representatives” overseeing these programs in Armenia. It mentions “US Air Force Captain Denis Vorobyov, managers Elizabeth Dufran and Michael Hunter, as well as DTRA specialist Abselya Teobald.”
