Hiroshima and Nagasaki 80 years later: who was responsible...
...and what lessons can be learned?
It has been eighty years since atomic bombs were dropped on the Japanese cities Hiroshima on August 6, 1945 and Nagasaki on August 9, 1945 causing the deaths of over 200,000 civilians, and injuring countless more.
Behind the scenes, nearly all U.S. officials, military leaders, and scientists opposed bombing Japanese civilians - the war was over as the Japanese had effectively surrendered months earlier - so who made that decision? Who “pulled the trigger” and why?
When researcher Alison McDowell visited Long Island - where I was raised, and still have family - in January of 2023, she wanted to visit a number of places, including the grave of Henry L. Stimson.
My heart sank when I heard the name “Stimson”: my childhood home was across the street from a school named for him. Secretary of War during World War 2 and member of the masonic Skull and Bones secret society based at Yale University, Stimson made the unilateral decision to bomb Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
As a 1987 graduate of Huntington High School, I do not recall learning about him in history class. If we did learn about Stimson - a NYC native who lived in Huntington until his death in 1950 - would he have been painted in a favorable light, as described by this Huntington Historical Society official?
Stimson “pulled the trigger” on the decision to bomb Hiroshima and Nagasaki - directly causing the most deadly single acts in human history - but who created the “trigger” in the first place?
From Peter Pan Meets Pyramid Head: “There was a…Jewish scientist in the first half of the twentieth century from which precedes everything twenty-first century man now sees before him. But his name was not Albert Einstein…John von Neumann published over a hundred and fifty papers in his lifetime, and each one of them would alter the course of human history…Most of what he did was top secret…Enrico Fermi may have built the bomb almost single-handedly, and Martin Bormann may have supplied the U235 when he dealt submarine U234 to the Allies, but it was John von Neumann who made it all work…It was von Neumann who designed the Implosion detonation mechanism for Fat Man, the plutonium bomb that leveled Nagasaki, and the one the Germans so conveniently had the infrared fuses for onboard U234. It was von Neumann who selected Hiroshima and Nagasaki as the targets after being overruled on Kyoto – his first choice – by Secretary of War Henry L. Stimson; and it was von Neumann who, according to even mainstream academia, calculated the exact “heights” at which the bombs would be detonated…His work was so classified that an armed contingent stood over him as he died of cancer at the Walter Reed Army Medical Center in 1957. There would be no impromptu death bed confessions in John von Neumann’s biography…”
I wrote a guest post on Alison’s blog Looking Around Long Island – Liz’s Guest Post from the Labyrinth and created an accompanying video about her visit to the “Long Island Labyrinth.”
Alison and I set intentions for healing (see video for explanation) at a number of places on Long Island, including Stimson’s grave:
Unfortunately, if we do not learn from history, we are doomed to repeat it. How can we learn if our history is distorted or concealed?
Here is the guest post (see Alison’s post for links and more images):
Dear Alison,
It was great to hang out with you in my part of the labyrinth: Long Island (where I was born and raised).
You were a lovely guest; my son enjoyed the checkers game!
So what did I think about the “Alison McDowell Historical Scavenger Hunt” – visiting different places on Long Island – with you recently?
When I first heard about how you “set intentions” at historically significant locations, it was your Federal Reserve visit in NYC. I thought it was interesting…but not my thing.
“Burn sage at the Federal Reserve?” I was like: “You will need every pot smoker in North America to light up for THAT.” Lol!
I have changed; the spiritual work you are doing is important.
As Gary Null said:
“We have eyes, heart, kidneys…what’s the only thing that’s missing when you’re dead?
Energy.
What’s the only thing never studied in medical school or in science classes?
The energy of life…
When we die that energy that was there: where does it go?
Energy cannot be created or destroyed.”
Our spiritual and energetic disconnection from nature, life, and our ancestors is problematic.
Also, sharing consequential information and truth publicly is important given Americans are relentlessly spoon-fed fibs and criminals are crowned.
The “Scavenger Hunt” in and around my hometown was a bit emotional: I miss being asleep like a soldier misses home.
Life is so challenging now that I’m nostalgic for my unhappy childhood.
As a kid my mother sent me a mobile – popular in the 80’s, hung from the ceiling – with little puffy figurines dangling from strings, sent in a cardboard box about the size of a human head. During the shipping process all the strings got impossibly tangled.
The image of that mobile – a hot mess of a toy – and that distinctive box symbolized the puzzle of my childhood, and stayed with me.
Untangling it figuratively – i.e. uncovering and facing the truth – has been part of my journey.
Just like with Americans and our history: there is WAY more to the story than what we have been told.
The “journey” changed a lot when my kids were kicked out of school due to law S2994/A2371 in NYS in 2019, and I became an activist: hosting protests, organizing parents, and running for office.
Being a political candidate was like a roller coaster ride: both good and bad things have happened as a result.
Meeting some of the greatest minds in the resistance – like you – has been one of the blessings.
One of the government insiders we spoke with during your visit commented: “The U.S. military exists to kill people and break things, so officers make up for this by being polite.”
To me, this “polite masking the unspeakably impolite” summarizes the Long Island Labyrinth and the culture here.
Just as Long Island is geographically trapped by NYC, Long Islanders are trapped in the gold chains of the matrix.
It has always been that way; the health emergency declared on 3/11/20 just amplified it.
Long Islanders pay high property taxes for the schools: these are good parents who simply want the best – including college and career – for their children.
Sadly, money and prestige do not inspire deep analysis or ethical introspection.
Why were defense contractors paid so much…?
To fight the Russians or other reasons?
Why are medical professionals paid so much…?
To manage health emergencies or other reasons?
And so on…
Here is a list of the places we visited:
Due to current time constraints, I did not do a “deep dive” into all seven topics/places (I hope to, though); I tried to analyze each from a LI native’s perspective. After writing this guest post, I realized visuals would be needed to accompany this, so I made a video about our day.
Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory – Eugenics Records Office
As a young child, shortly after the CSHL received it’s first “cancer-war” grant from the US government i 1972, I took classes here. I vividly recall dissecting a frog in a clean, sunny classroom. “Cold Spring Harbor” is one of the most prestigious towns in the country, and the CSH Lab was the research equivalent of the Ivy League.
“From its founding in 1910 until it closed its doors in 1939 the Eugenics Record Office at CSH Lab in NY was the center of the American Eugenics Movement.”
The CSH Lab boasts a staff of one thousand, including 600 scientists and research assistants.
The Eugenics Department at CSH Lab never “closed its doors in 1939” – rather the extensive library featuring books with titles like “Mental Retardation and Sterilization” and “The Population Problem”, is still well maintained. It appears the study of eugenics morphed into the Human Genome Project.
While you researched the Charles De Lisi Collection, I browsed the library and displays.
Of course, the people there and the facility was lovely. Reserving the parking spot for you was thoughtful.
It’s always the “dual use” factor. CSH Lab workers believe they are fighting the “war on cancer.” People only know what they know.
As asked in the video: why is the Department of Energy financing DNA research?
Someone sent a video of a woman at the WEF meeting in Davos speaking about using DNA as an energy source, and you sent me a study, as well.
The grave of Henry Stimson, Secretary of War under Roosevelt and Truman
I grew up in a house across from the street from a school named for Stimson, the Secretary of War under FDR and Truman who oversaw the Manhattan Project and made the decision to bomb Hiroshima and Nagasaki killing over 200,000 souls.
It was shocking to contemplate a reason behind these bombings was to study the health effects on survivors, and that this research has been utilized in the Human Genome Project.
Stimson’s grave – in a cemetery five minutes from the CSH – is impossible to find unless you ask a cemetery employee for assistance. The grave itself is not extraordinary, but the location within the cemetery of this Skull and Bones member is: it is one of the most private burial sites in the world, and would probably cost a fortune if purchased today.
In my heart, I sensed unquestionably that individuals have performed dark rituals in that spot.
As an ESL teacher for nearly 20 years, I have had countless Japanese students…absolutely outrageous that this person is honored, but – when you learn the US is actually the pit bill for the NWO – it is no different than the evil acts of U.S. presidents.
Perspective Studios Motion Capture in Glen Cove, NY
Former headquarters of Acclaim Entertainment, video game developer 1987-2004. Later home of Perspective Studios with largest motion capture facility on the east coast. Now converted to medical offices.
Children and Screens: Institute of Digital Media & Child Development c/o KWM CPAs in Jericho, NY
This office, visible from the Long Island Expressway, sounds like an important and useful non-profit: helping parents deal with their children’s screen usage.
In truth – and very few understand this – the future planned for our kids is unspeakably dystopian: AI will study them, create their virtual twin, and that twin will exist in the Metaverse.
They will use our kids and mine them for data, to be financial commodities.
Why did Goldman Sachs and J.P. Morgan sponsor the Children and Screens fundraiser?
Do the officials at this non-profit care about what kids see online, or are they gatekeepers determining what is acceptable in the Metaverse without warning parents of what the future really looks like?
Stewards for Change in Centerport, NY
Mission “to improve the futures of everyone in our country – particularly disadvantaged and underserved populations – by initiating inspiring, and instilling transformational change in health and human service systems at all levels of government, industry and nonprofits.”
Stewards of Change is creating along with the National Interoperability Collaborative seamless health and human service data systems to underpin human capital markets and feed into fusion centers.
Question: how is this being accomplished?
Brookhaven State Park – Adjacent to Brookhaven National Lab and Formerly Part of Camp Upton
This was also personal for me, because a close relative worked here. Again, I knew little about the research here, except – like CSH Lab – it was a prestigious gig.
We set an intention in the sandy oak forest of nearby Brookhaven State Park as there is no public access to this Department of Energy lab, though we did drive up the entryway and saw there was a lot of construction on site. The facility is run by Battelle and Stony Brook University with a focus on high energy physics and nanotechnology. The lab contaminated the aquifer under the eastern end of Long Island with radioactive discharges for decades. Cancer rates on the Long Island are extremely high.
The land upon which the park and the lab are located was a former US Army base, Camp Upton, which was used as a Japanese interment camp during World War II.
The Tesla Science Center at Wardenclyffe
Thank you to Jane Alcorn for the outstanding tour of the site of Nikola Tesla’s last remaining laboratory of Tesla: one of the great scientists of all time.
The site includes the footings of an eighteen story tower that Tesla hoped to use to transmit electricity wirelessly. It was taken down after the lab closed.
I would love to write a book about Nikola Tesla…his story is fascinating.
Tesla had been sponsored by the millionaire John Jacob Astor IV; when he died in the Titanic, support for this Long Island lab disappeared, and the site closed.
Volunteers are working to renovate the old lab – where an 18-story tower once stood – and create a global science center.
We also learned that this location, Brookhaven Lab, and the old nuclear power plant in Shoreham, and a sacred indigenous erratic boulder are all VERY close to each other; it makes you wonder if they are connected to the “Ley lines” of the world.
PS: Long Islanders like myself love to talk…below is the transcript of the end of the video (not included in the blog post):
This is the building where Tesla‘s actual lab was, and they’re trying to raise money to renovate it (a great cause!). There had been an 18-story tower here, and check this out…(video) ‘the inventor sent huge shafts 120 feet into the soil (under the tower)…’ Could there be something special about the earth’s electromagnetic field in the spot?
It was here (at the Tesla Science Center) that we learned about the historic RCA Tower that was demolished in 1977. As many older Long Islanders are aware: the nuclear power plant at Shoreham – that never opened – is also close by.
Note the close proximity of these for energetically significant locations:
1) Tesla Science Center, a mere 2.4 miles from the
2) Shoreham Nuclear Power Plant
3) the RCA Tower
4) Brookhaven National Lab.
Again, could this location be significant in terms of the earth’s electromagnetic field?
Another question: why are the rates of cancer – particularly women’s breast cancer – so high on Long Island?
According to website, the environmental factors for women’s breast cancer are “smoking” and “grilled food.”
By the way, Brookhaven and NASA are collaborating to protect astronauts from “cosmic radiation.”
Speaking of radiation, Alison mentioned at Stimson’s grave that the one reason they dropped the bombs on Japan was to study the impact of radiation on human beings. Despite the well-established health effects of radiation, there is a movement to try to convince people that low levels of radiation are beneficial – radiation hormesis. Are people being psychologically conditioned to think radiation will make them some kind of superhero, like Captain America? The “small, underdeveloped” fictional Steve Rogers was exposed to radiation and became a “super soldier.”
Some of the books at library at the CSH lab were about the ground water of Long Island and others were about the impacts of radiation on the body. Given the geology of Long Island where pollutants easily seeps through the sand into aquifers and its isolated nature… well, it just makes you wonder.
In conclusion, I want to thank Alison for demonstrating how to set intentions for healing in defense of natural life, for sending meaningful vibrations out into the world, for exposing systemic harms, and activism in defense of future generations.


You’re following such an interesting path. I too have come to realize we are on some sort of quest, and that setting intentions and feeling in the direction that need attention is really the way to opening my eyes to the real battle that is happening in real time. Thank you so much for your time and for the pursuit of truth. I’m learning so much from you ❤️
There needs to be a worldwide ban on eugenics research.
