On May 19th 1980 millions of Americans and Billions worldwide tuned into, and believed an elaborate hoax designed to use sophisticated, emerging, military, psych-ops to not only prop up "Big Science" but also cover up one of the largest cases of insurance fraud in U.S. history.
Weyerhaeuser claims that Mount St. Helens "erupted" with the force of several atomic bombs. The eruption devastated 68,000 acres of Weyerhaeuser land and destroyed logging camps and equipment. What would Weyerhaeuser have to gain from intentionally losing that much timber and equipment? What would motivate them to create and allow such a thing to happen? What would motivate them to cause an ecological disaster?
By January of 1980 Weyerhaeuser knew that the Alaska National Interest Lands Conservation Act or (ANILCA) (a bill that Weyerhaeuser had been keeping at bay through bribes to government officials (Sen Mark Gravel) since 1973.) Would soon reach the senate floor again, and despite their best efforts, this time it would pass. Forcing Weyerhaeuser to return millions of acers of Alaskan timber land to native tribes. Seeing the writing on the wall Senator Gravel and George H. Weyerhaeuser used their combined wealth and connections to conceive and execute the largest insurance fraud in history.
It was decided that the best way to not only offset the loss of revenue from Alaska but make a profit was to illegally strip as much resources from property in Washington State as possible and then destroy the evidence in such a way that it would look like an act of god so revenues could be doubled or tripled through insurance pay outs and government handouts. Resource stripping would be the easy part. The country was in the middle of the Carter recession and there would be no lack of experienced workers looking for a job in the Pacific Northwest. But how to cover up an intentional ecological disaster? The cover up was schemed and executed through a series of Bribes and profit sharing. Senator Gravel (a CIA asset) used his contacts to get some of the brains behind the rejected "Operation Northwood's" to devise a way to believably cover up their tracks by staging a false flag operation. Having been thwarted by the Kennedys refusal to launch "Northwood's" the CIA psych-ops were more than excited to get a chance almost 20 years after being rejected to prove they could shock and awe the American public on a massive scale.
Meanwhile the Weyerhaeuser's had begun hiring men and equipment at an unprecedented rate. They did manage however, to convince the rail and other shipping companies that there would be a huge pay out if they didnt question or report the sudden uptake in freight. They also paid off local media with the promise of a large ratings event later if they didn't poke around or run any stories on all of the new activity and people in the area. Key local Politian's in the pay of Weyerhaeuser were convinced to turn a blind eye with the promise of large amounts of Federal dollars being funneled into the state. The stage was set and the operation was a go in less than four months. Weyerhaeuser had roughly a year before the ANILCA bill would be passed to strip the area of as much resources as was possible. So what sort of plan did the CIA, psych-ops think tank come up with? It was decided to LITERALLY cover up the entire operation under miles of mud and rock. Bringing part of the mountain down would be the easy part. A mix of massive deforesting/strip mining at the base, and carefully placed explosives designed and tested in Nevada at test site 18. Would be more than enough to bring the mountain down. Once the explosion was finished the ensuing landslide would choke the surrounding rivers causing large scale flooding. Which would effectively bury / wash away all evidence of the illegal tree harvest and mining operations. The over harvesting was easy to hide because Washington in those days was not the Mecca of tree hugging, virtue signaling, Kale eaters they are today. The hard working people of the region were happy to have good paying jobs to feed their families. The explosives on the other hand would be tricky.The CIA team working under the codename "Cooper plane" (a reference to DB cooper who was one of their own). Decided to use a very secret and very new weather technology developed by a British company called 'BAE systems". This Ionosphere manipulation device had not only a profound effect on weather, but could also, at close range manipulate tectonic plates. The device (Later known as HAARP) was used to cause a series of small earthquakes in the region of the mighty mountain. This was excuse enough for Geologists (also CIA) to warn that the mountain was ready to erupt and that a large evacuation, no fly zone and road closure thousands of miles wide were necessary to keep people, press and anyone else from harm. In reality, it was to keep folks from seeing what they should not be seeing. A handful of CIA operatives planting explosives in key points to hasten an already impending landslide. If you watch the "eruption" footage carefully you will notice 4 stages to the initial explosion and what appear to be two more after, these last two are caused by a pocket of thermal gas releasing, having been freed by the earlier controlled explosions.
This controlled explosion effectively triggered the land slide which buried all evidence around the mountain and blocked up the surrounding rivers thus drowning anything the landslide missed. The explosion had a secondary use. Millions of tons of ash were now being thrown up into the atmosphere destroying visibility for miles around. Weyerhaeuser used this to start loading millions of dollars' worth of stockpiled resources onto trains and trucks to be shipped out of country and sold without anyone the wiser. With their tracks covered and the world believing the "eruption" story and millions of dollars in resources safely sold and shipped. Weyerhaeuser shifted gears and began the most successful case of fraud in history. First they began the paper work to rake in millions of dollars from insurance claims. They also placed (and won) their bid to help with the "eruption" cleanup. Below is a Chart showing how much insurance was paid out for the cleanup efforts.
Keep in mind that Weyerhaeuser made a mint off of stolen resources sold on the black market and insurance money. The figures above give you just a glimpse of the money being thrown around from this "natural disaster". Weyerhaeuser would continue to line their pockets during the cleanup for at least another three years. Taking in millions from extended tax dollar contracts.
But they weren't the only ones taking advantage. Senator Gravel and his Government cronies had to belly up to the trough as well. The CIA had proven to their overlords in the World Bank and DARPA that they could successfully pull off a large scale false flag operation on U.S. soil. They saw their budget increase. The EPA and Big Geology racked in MASSIVE tax dollar grants to study the "eruption" and its effects on the environment and push their environmental agenda. They saw their budget increase. FEMA provided "help: and housing during the aftermath and saw their budget increase. (More on what they used this increase for in a later thesis) The media saw a MASSIVE increase in viewers so much so that the idea of a 24 hours news channel was born. On June 1st 1980 the CIA launched CNN to continue the "eruption" narrative and grow a massive base of easily hoodwinked viewers to rally for future operations. The biggest winner of all was Weyerhaeuser having made trillions from the disaster.
