John Holdren
President Obama yesterday committed to reducing stocks of U.S. weapons-grade
plutonium and last week signed an agreement that will lower the country's
deployed nuclear arsenals.
Obama's "science czar," John Holdren, has long petitioned for these moves at a
magazine whose personnel were used for the benefit of Soviet propaganda in an
attempt to disarm America, according to a former top intelligence official from
the USSR.
The magazine's founders were accused of providing vital nuclear secrets that
helped the Soviets develop an atomic bomb.
The magazine, the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists, has been urging the U.S.
to surrender its nuclear arsenal to international control.
The U.S. and Russia yesterday signed a deal reducing stocks of weapons-grade
plutonium, officials in both nations said.
U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and Russian Foreign Minister Sergei
Lavrov will sign a protocol to a 2000 agreement on eliminating excess
weapons-grade plutonium from defense programs, the State Department said.
U.S. officials have said each country is to dispose of 34 metric tons of
weapons-grade plutonium by burning it in reactors.

Last week, Russian President Dmitry Medvedev and Obama signed the new Strategic
Arms Reduction Treaty, or START, committing them to reducing their deployed
nuclear arsenals.
The Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists, with Holdren on the board of directors
from 1984 until recently, has long petitioned for the U.S. to reduce its
nuclear stockpiles. According to Pavel Sudoplatov, a former major-general in
Soviet intelligence, this kind of work by the magazine editors was for the
benefit of the Soviet Union.
Holdren is assistant to the president for science and technology, director of
the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy, and co-chairman of the
President's Council of Advisors on Science and Technology.
The Bulletin of Atomic Scientists began publishing regularly in 1945, when it
was founded by former physicists from the Manhattan Project, which developed
the first atomic bomb.
Two of the magazine's founding sponsors, Leo Szilard and Robert Oppenheimer,
were accused of passing information from the Manhattan Project to the Soviets.
Both were also key initiators of the Manhattan Project.
In 1994, Sudoplatov, a former major-general in Soviet intelligence, identified
Szilard and Oppenheimer as key sources of crucial atomic information to the
Soviet Union.
"The most vital information for developing the first Soviet atomic bomb came
from scientists engaged in the Manhattan Project to build the American atomic
bomb – Robert Oppenheimer, Enrico Fermi and Leo Szilard," wrote Sudoplatov.
Sudoplatov wrote the Soviet Union "received reports on the progress of the
Manhattan Project from Oppenheimer and his friends in oral form, through
comments and asides, and from documents transferred through clandestine methods
with their full knowledge that the information they were sharing would be
passed on."
Oppenheimer was accused in Senate hearings of bringing communists into the
Manhattan Project. He brought his brother Frank and three former graduate
students into the project, all of whom, according to Senate hearings, were well
known to him to be "members of the Communist Party or closely associated with
activities of the Communist Party."
Oppenheimer admitted he knew by August 1943 that two of the scientists working
under him were Communist Party members. Three of five scientists under
Oppenheimer's direct supervision were accused of leaking secret information
about the atomic bomb to the Soviets.
On Oct. 25, 1945, Oppenheimer met with President Truman at the White House,
urging him to surrender the U.S. nuclear monopoly to international control.
Truman was outraged, reportedly telling Secretary of State Dean Acheson, "I
don't want to see that son-of-a-b*tch in this office ever again."
Magazine used for 'Soviet propaganda'
Oppenheimer and Szilard were stripped of their work in the Manhattan Project,
but they continued to use the bulletin to petition for the U.S. to surrender
its nuclear arsenal to international control.
"[Soviet politician and security chief Lavrentiy] Beria said we should think
how to use Oppenheimer, Szilard and others around them in the peace campaign
against nuclear armament. Disarmament and the inability to impose nuclear
blackmail would deprive the United States of its advantage," wrote Sudoplatov.
Sudoplatov said his spymasters knew the lobby efforts of the bulletin editors
would be a "crucial factor in establishing the new world order after the war,
and we took advantage of this."
Another bulletin founding sponsor, Edward U. Condon, was mentioned by FBI
director J. Edgar Hoover in a May 1947 letter as having contact with an alleged
spy who had passed information to the Soviets from 1941 to 1944.
Holdren worked alongside communist sympathizers
When Holdren started work on the bulletin in 1984, communist and socialist
sympathizers still occupied the magazine's masthead.
The New Zeal blog notes the bulletin's board of directors in 1984 included:
Board chairman Aaron Adler, who also served on the board of the Chicago Center
for U.S./USSR Relations and Exchanges, alongside Larry McGurty of the Communist
Party USA. Adler was also a member of what New Zeal labels a Communist Party
front, the Chicago Committee to Defend the Bill of Rights. He was also involved
in a committee to celebrate the 100th birthday of Communist Party member Paul
Robeson.
Bernard Weissbourd, a former Manhattan Project scientist who later served on
the transition oversight committee for incoming Chicago Mayor Harold
Washington, who was active in Communist Party fronts.
Weissbourds' son, Robert M. Weissbourd, later served as chairman of the Obama
for America Campaign Urban and Metropolitan Policy Committee and on the Obama
Transition Housing and Urban Development Agency Review Team in 2008.
Ruth Adams, bulletin editor, who served in the 1960s on the Advisory Committee
of the Hyde Park Community Peace Center. Other center members included lifelong
communist front activist Robert Havighurst, communist activist and radical
Trotskyist Sydney Lens and Quentin Young, an avowed communist who has advised
Obama on health care.
Holdren in Cold War
WND first reported Holdren visited the Soviet Union during the Cold War as vice
chairman of a group whose founder was accused of providing vital nuclear
information that helped the Soviets build an atom bomb. The original leaders of
the group, the Federation of American Scientists, also served on the board of
the bulletin magazine.
Just after President Reagan's March 1983 "Star Wars" speech in which he
proposed a missile-defense shield to protect the U.S., a group of Soviet
academicians sent a letter to the U.S. scientific community asking about the
feasibility of such a shield.
The only group that responded directly to the Soviet scientists was the
Federation of American Scientists, or FAS, leading to an invitation to visit
from Evgeny Velikov, director of the Soviet Kurchatov Institute of Science.
Physicist David W. Hafemeister relates in his book, "Physics and Nuclear Arms
Today," how he was part of the FAS delegation to the USSR along with Holdren,
who at the time was a professor at the University of California at Berkeley.
The FAS is non-profit organization formed in 1945 by scientists from the
Manhattan Project. The FAS has long petitioned for nuclear disarmament.
Szilard was a principal founder of the FAS. Founders of the FAS also were board
members of the Bulletin of Atomic Scientists.
Along with Szilard and Oppenheimer, WND found other FAS founders that served on
the bulletin board, including nuclear physicists Eugene Rubinowitch, Hans Bethe
and V. F. Weisskopf
Surrender to planetary regime
Holdren, meanwhile, has been a longtime climate-change alarmist who has
advocated ideas such as enforcing limits to world population growth.
Holdren's name was in the e-mails hacked from the Climatic Research Unit at
East Anglia University in the U.K., which show that some climate researchers
declined to share their data with fellow scientists, conspired to rig data and
sought to keep researchers with dissenting views from publishing in leading
scientific journals.
FrontPageMag.com noted Holdren has endorsed "surrender of sovereignty" to "a
comprehensive Planetary Regime" that would control all the world's resources,
direct global redistribution of wealth, oversee the "de-development" of the
West, control a world army and taxation regime, and enforce world population
limits.
Holdren collaborated with conspiracy theorist Paul Ehrlich, author of "The
Population Bomb," in which it was proclaimed: "The battle to feed all of
humanity is over. In the 1970s, the world will undergo famines – hundreds of
millions of people are going to starve to death."
WND previously reported Holdren also predicted 1 billion people will die in
"carbon-dioxide-induced famines" in a coming new ice age by 2020.
Holdren based his prediction on a theory that human emissions of carbon dioxide
would produce a climate catastrophe causing global cooling, with a consequent
reduction in agricultural production resulting in widespread disaster.
But Holdren also argued "global warming" might cancel global cooling. In their
1970s textbook "Ecoscience: Population, Resources and Environment," last
revised in 1977, Holdren and co-authors Paul and Anne Ehrlich argued on page
687 that "a man-made warming trend might cancel out a natural cooling trend."

FOR CAMBODIA
Strong Resolution on Cambodia Human Rights Abuses
Feb. 27, 1982 : UN Commission on Human Rights meeting in Geneva adopted a
resolution condemning Vietnam’s occupation of Cambodia as a violation of
Cambodian human rights. The vote was 28 in favor, 8 against, and 5 abstentions.
Oct. 21, 1986 The UN General Assembly adopted a resolution A/RES/41/6, by vote
of 116-21 with 13 abstentions, calling for a withdrawal of Vietnamese forces
from Cambodia.
10 UN RESOLUTIONS,(1979-1988) VOTED BY 116 UN MEMBER COUNTRIES ,CALL VIETNAM TO
CEASE HER OCCUPATION OF CAMBODIA & REMOVE ALL HER TROOPS FROM THE COUNTRY, ARE
NOT RESPECTED AS OF TODAY.
Oct. 21, 1986 The UN General Assembly adopted a resolution A/RES/41/6, by vote
of 116-21 with 13 abstentions, calling for a withdrawal of Vietnamese forces
from Cambodia.
President Reagan's address to the 43d Session of the United Nations General
Assembly in New York, New York,September 26, 1988.
"Mr. Secretary-General, there are new hopes for Cambodia, a nation whose
freedom and independence we seek just as avidly as we sought the freedom and
independence of Afghanistan. We urge the rapid removal of all Vietnamese troops
...."
As of today,Cambodia is still occupied by the Vietnamese troops despite the
call from the US president to Vietnam to cease her occupation of Cambodia since
1988.
Cambodia needs Independence from Vietnam and the Vietnamese invaders.
Vietnam must cease her occupation of Cambodia at once.
