They have to know who has developed this.

And Olivia Troye, of all people. She was very frank in her discussion of the experience.

The creepiest part was when they pointed out that if senior leadership in the United States could be targeted it could severely affect our safety.

A Havana syndrome story is released. Never any new info, never any closer to the answer, just more anecdotes, vague lists of symptoms. Not buying it.

...has decided to publicize the tech in order to begin to address its use by foreign actors.

Naysayers don’t know what they are talking about.

not buying it in the slightest. I think peeps have been watching too many sci fi movies. I had a migraine-like episode so it must have been a ray gun? Really? Must be from a satellite if it was at the OEOB because you cant get a random white van anywhere near that staircase.

Would they tell us if that were the case?

Whoever is behind it, they don't seem to fear any consequences. Which says to me they are confident they have bigger leverage to deploy if they are discovered.

I believe it is really happening, but I question the timing of the story. It seems like Havana Syndrome could be used to justify US troops in the Ukraine. I hope I’m wrong.
