Responses to My Column About Lt. Col. Bearden Lev Navrozov Newton's mathematics came to be called "higher mathematics" as compared with "lower mathematics," then and now taught to schoolchildren. In his studies of superweaponry, Lt. Col. Thomas Bearden (U.S. Army, retired) deals with "super-higher mathematics and physics," as did Einstein in evolving his theory of relativity. Here we have a problem. A constitutional republic (colloquially, a "democracy") is not ruled in peacetime by the top decision-maker disregarding a majority and listening only to certain individuals, as President Roosevelt listened to Albert Einstein in 1939. When Germany launched a conventional war in 1939 and declared war on the United States in 1941, President Roosevelt did initiate the development of nuclear weapons on the advice of Einstein (see his letter of Aug. 2, 1939) and several nuclear physicists of genius – mostly Jewish émigrés. Only a tiny fraction of 1 percent of the adult population of the United States knew anything about nuclear weapons, and still fewer about their development in Germany since 1939. But in peacetime, the U.S. presidency depends on a majority, who elect the president and vice president as well as the Congress and determine the content of the U.S. mainstream media, whose ratings depend on the size of their audiences. How many Americans can understand the "super-higher mathematics" Bearden uses? In 2003, the Program of International Student Assessment (PISA) assessed the level of knowledge not of "super-higher mathematics," and not even of higher mathematics, but of ordinary mathematics for students of 14, "near the end of mandatory school education." Participating were about 250,000 students from 29 countries, including over 5,000 students in more than 250 U.S. schools. The five countries achieving the best results included South Korea (a non-Western country!) and the five achieving the worst included the U.S., which took 24th place among the 29 participating countries, which did not include China, Russia or Arab countries.

Predictably, there were three types of responses to my column about Lt. Col. Bearden's warning concerning Sino-Soviet-Russian superweapons. (See: Lt. Col. Bearden Issues Urgent Warning to America.) One type of response is exemplified by the e-mail sent to me on May 13, 2006, by Mr. Carse Doke of Muskogee, Okla. He was a combatant in the Vietnam War, waged to prevent North Vietnam and its allies, Russia and China, from making South Vietnam part of their dictatorships, threatening the democratic West. What did he see as he read my column? The Sino-Russian world in "the higher geostrategy to be accomplished, in part, w/ superweapons" – "in a scenario of doom for this nation that staggers the mind." What's the problem? Look at the beginning of Mr. Doke's e-mail: Greetings, Mr. Navrozov! I read your "warning to America" this morning and visited Lt. Col. Bearden's website. The scope of the collage of his subject matter is beyond my grasp.Wisely, Mr. Doke is looking for educational assistance, and our Center for the Survival of Western Democracies, Inc., will e-mail him a "synopsis" (as he puts it) of "this impending situation."
The second kind of response to my column is exemplified by Mr. Joel Frigon of New Bern, N.C. Here is the first half of his e-mail: Dear Lev, Lt. Col. Thomas E. Bearden and Col. Byron WeeksWhat has this to do with what Thomas Bearden, Byron Weeks and I have been saying for years? Nothing! We have been saying that since 1986 China has been developing post-nuclear superweapons, now in cooperation with Putin's Russia. Mr. Frigon believes he disproves what we have been saying by saying that the United States cannot be stressed by Iraq and Afghanistan, because outside Iraq and Afghanistan the United States still has "more than two million" soldiers. The population of China exceeds 1.2 billion. But the danger is not with these 1.2 billion people, even if half of them (600 million) can be made soldiers. The danger is with those post-nuclear superweapons that can destroy the Western means of nuclear retaliation and thus have the West at the Chinese dictatorship's mercy. Besides, if "115 thousand" U.S. soldiers have been unable to cope for three years with Sunnis in Iraq, a small and technologically backward country, how effective are "more than two million" U.S. soldiers for China, which has more than 1.2 billion people and has been undergoing the Second Super-Industrial Revolution, creating, in cooperation with Putin's Russia, post-nuclear superweapons? The second half of Mr. Frigon's e-mail is no less remarkable: We are China's and Russia's biggest customer!Well, facing the alternative of being annihilated by Sino-Russian superweapons versus unconditional surrender, the West will no doubt choose the latter, and the dictators of China will thus receive the entire national wealth of the West plus its population as slaves. Yet this is not their key motivation. The Tiananmen Square movement demonstrated that the Chinese dictators' power (and wealth) are not secure as long as the democratic West exists and thus subverts, by its very existence, any dictatorship. It is not for nothing that a copy of the Statue of Liberty was in the Square and that in China it is forbidden to mention the Tiananmen movement in ANY context, positive or negative. But Mr. Frigon's most self-revealing statement is that "99% of the new inventions and technology come from the United States!" Mr. Frigon took the figure from the top of his omniscient head. Of course, if I use statistical reference books of foreign countries to quote the number of their patents for their inventions, Mr. Frigon is likely to say that all these countries thus extol their trash. So here is "Statistical Abstract of the United States 2004-2005" from my shelves of statistics books. On page 500 we learn that in 2003, 47.3 percent of the U.S. patents were issued to foreigners, and on page 858 we find that in 2003 residents of Taiwan received 5,298 U.S. patents for their inventions, and those of South Korea 3,869 U.S. patents for theirs. What about China? In contrast to Taiwan, China does not grant patents for foreign inventions, but simply steals them. As for Chinese inventions, the most important of them are in the sphere of superweapons and hence are super-secret. Mr. Frigon is a victim of his delusion of "our superiority." Accordingly, he perceives himself as omniscient. In Hitler's Germany, Stalin's Russia or Hu Jintao's China such paragons of global superiority merely created or create that national self-adulation that helps the dictator's quest for world domination. But in today's West, such self-adulation can only enhance the probability of the Chinese dictator's shashou jian (a sudden paralyzing blow) of the West by his superweapons. Finally, the third kind of response to my column about Bearden is exemplified by (Dr.?) Raleigh Davis of M.I.T. in his e-mail to me on May 14, 2006. Dr. Davis is a victim of conformity, that is, the conviction that the truth is what "everyone" is saying at the time. As of May 14, 2006, the U.S. mainstream media ("everyone") did not even mention the development of post-nuclear superweapons in China in cooperation with Putin's Russia. The danger was Iran, seeking nuclear weapons (which, incidentally, China first tested in 1964 and Russia in 1949). Hence this was the truth as of May 14, 2006, according to Dr. Davis of M.I.T. as he explained in his e-mail to me that, having acquired nuclear weapons, Iran "could easily pass off a nuke to a radical group that very well could ship it to our shores." Indeed, "the Iranian leader" is "capable of doing even a direct attack and living with the consequences." But surely Iran and "the Iranian leader" will be annihilated in retaliation with nuclear weapons. However, as a villain, he is not afraid of death! Here Dr. Davis could recall that according to the U.S. mainstream media, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad called for a "world without Zionism." So Israel will be his first nuclear target! Actually, Ahmadinejad said that Israel should resettle in a territory provided by Germany and Austria, since it was they who "killed Jews during WWII." This is a utopia, but this is not Ahmadinejad's threat to annihilate Israel with newly acquired nuclear weapons and to die as a result of nuclear retaliation. You can e-mail me at navlev@cloud9.net
