It really and truly was high-intensity, aimed, microwave radiation that caused тАЬHavana SyndromeтАЭ (permanent brain damage) in US and Canadian diplomats while they were stationed in Cuba and China in recent years.

DonтАЩt get caught up in the irrelevant debate about whether these aimed and fired beams of microwave energy were intended to cause physical harm to the brains of our officials (rather than a тАЬside effectтАЭ of energy beams fired to activate hidden surveillance gear nearby)...
...
Because it *does not matter* what the official intention was. The facts are:

1. Advanced technology was aimed at official US & CA diplomats.

2. Those diplomats were legally permitted, and expected, to be in those known locations while stationed in Cuba and China.

...
...
3. The devices aimed at our diplomats in Cuba and China were then deliberately and intentionally fired high-energy microwave payloads into the bodies of US and Canadian government officials who were not violating any agreement or law by merely being at these places.
4. In fact, the conventional doctrines of diplomatic immunity extended to official government visitors of this type heavily suggest that even if тАЬInflicting Brain Damage via Microwave CannonтАЭ was actually a potential criminal penalty...
...available (following a hypothetical trial and conviction of crime in Cuba or China) the alleged crime being punished for here would have to have been so heinous as to overcome the standard hurdles of diplomatic immunity, the basic right to have a fair public trial...
and the expected protests and objections by US and CA governmentsтАФ

In order to even begin claiming justification here, the theoretical crimes would have to have been so heinous and obvious as to require skipping all of those foundational steps of legitimate proceedings...
...and go straight to carrying out a punishment of permanent, physical, and mentally debilitating harm inflicted via high-energy microwave beams fired at, and into, the brains of these US & CA government employees and officials.
All while invited to these foreign countries where they were stationed and lived while adversarial enemies of our nations intentionally fired brain-damaging weaponry, munitions commonly known to cause harm to the human body, upon these diplomats _and_their_families_.
5. If you allow, or promulgate, a narrative cover-story similar to, тАЬOh this was just an unintentional tragedy. Nations spy on each other all the time and accidents happen. Nobody was trying to harm or damage the brains of US government employees and their loved ones.тАЭ ...
...If you go with that narrative, you either are, or are aiding, the enemy. You may be doing so unintentionally, or at the direction of someone who told you what to say or write, or perhaps without sufficient knowledge of the...
...details to realize the gravity of what you are doing.

The bottom line is that commentary trying to brush aside these assaults on our diplomats and which attempts to sweep the well documented harm of this new form of attack under the rug, provides aid and cover for the enemy.
A bullet which cannot be held, nor seen, nor captured on film in mid air as it hurls toward the a chosen target, is not any less lethal due to those characteristics. It should be understood as *more* alarming than conventional bullets because of its deniability.
Causing chaos within adversary ranks by inflicting unseen damage to the brain of a key decision maker is much more powerful than a single sniperтАЩs bullet taking down that same decision maker in plain view with the bloody-soaked evidence plainly visible to all.
...which then emboldens the resolve of that adversary force while unifying a nationтАЩs population against a common enemy believed to be responsible for the sudden and undeniable assassination event.

This scenario w/new tech now tries to achieve same goal w/out the unwanted parts.
The new-age invisible тАЬbulletsтАЭ do not inflict their full harm immediately. It is a pernicious, slow venom not any less dangerous than the projectiles used to kill on battlefields for the past ~200+ years.
But the harm is spread over time and attacks the faith in commands given. If you cannot trust the mental faculties of people in key decision making positions, the entire command-decision making structure breaks down. These forms of attacks...
...targeting individualsтАЩ ability to make reliable and accurate decisions, and be of sound mind, are a grave threat to human civilization and modern societies worldwide.

There is no way to justify this harm to diplomats.
It is an abhorrent & unacceptable use of technology.
Future generations will look to current times for a range of precedence and guidance.
The answer here to this one should be unambiguous: That we reject the use of invisible, covertly deployed, unannounced, and unexpected weapons to inflict brain damage in the a target. Full stop.
Microwave style weaponry is much more dangerous over time due to the degrading effect on quality of reasoning and decision making relied upon by all tiers of organization.
Implementing defense, detection, and countermeasures against this new type of attack must be done...
...with credibility in mind. Taking the threat posed by rogue use of Directed Energy Weapons seriously at a population-wide scale will require spreading a destabilizing truth- that a new weapon has been used to harm our diplomats abroad, and we need to understand the risk here.
Half of the harm caused by this type of weapon in modern times will be the result of an unwillingness to admit they exist or are possible.

The report IтАЩve attached (linked in first tweet at top) helps in getting past that first hurdle....
Next, humanity needs to spread knowledge of how to detect the use of directed energy weapons (DEWs) and identify symptoms experienced by victims of the new class of long-term weaponry; and doing so in a careful enough way to not cause panic, yet remain serious about the threat.
There will be opportunists and trolls alike trying to cause panic for profit and laughs. They must be anticipated and countered with zealous clarity. The penalty for coordinating disinfo for profit, or to inflict undue and avoidable harm, must make it clearly not worth the risk.
tl;dr- microwave energy beams confirmed as likely cause of brain damage suffered by US diplomats stationed in China and Cuba.
Previously тАЬHavana SyndromeтАЭ & тАЬsonic attacksтАЭ, now explained as likely uses of microwave-based Directed Energy Weapons (DEWs).

Welcome to the future ЁЯШХ.

"I lied about my basic beliefs in order to keep a prestigious job. Now that it will be zero-cost to me, I have a few things to say."


We know that elite institutions like the one Flier was in (partial) charge of rely on irrelevant status markers like private school education, whiteness, legacy, and ability to charm an old white guy at an interview.

Harvard's discriminatory policies are becoming increasingly well known, across the political spectrum (see, e.g., the recent lawsuit on discrimination against East Asian applications.)

It's refreshing to hear a senior administrator admits to personally opposing policies that attempt to remedy these basic flaws. These are flaws that harm his institution's ability to do cutting-edge research and to serve the public.

Harvard is being eclipsed by institutions that have different ideas about how to run a 21st Century institution. Stanford, for one; the UC system; the "public Ivys".
