To a topic we've been covering extensively on the show: directed energy weapons and their effect on the brain.
Neurologist Dr. James Charred discusses the weaponization of directed energy weapons and their neurological impact, including domestic threats.
Key Takeaways
- Directed energy weapons are a real and evolving threat with both overseas and domestic implications.
- They cause serious neurological damage that can be acute or chronic, impacting multiple body systems.
- Portable forms of these weapons increase the risk of covert attacks in public and government spaces.
- Detection, defense, and early treatment are essential components of countermeasures.
- International regulation and government acknowledgment are necessary to control their use.
Summary
- Directed energy weapons fire concentrated energy at the speed of light and have been linked to neurological symptoms known as Havana Syndrome.
- Originally documented among American diplomats and intelligence personnel overseas, there is now evidence suggesting domestic use in the U.S.
- Two generations of these weapons exist: sonic weapons causing mini stroke-like effects and advanced devices emitting rapidly pulsed microwaves without thermal signatures.
- These weapons disrupt neurological integrity, affecting the brain, immune system, heart rate, and endocrine function, causing both acute and chronic symptoms.
- Directed energy weapons are currently used by the U.S. military for drone defense but can be weaponized in portable forms such as backpacks or vehicles.
- The scalability of these weapons raises concerns about covert attacks in public spaces, including government buildings.
- Countermeasures include detection systems, signal-blocking garments, early biological effect detection, and treatment protocols.
- International efforts are underway to regulate directed energy weapons under treaties like the Biological Toxins and Weapons Convention.
- The technology is real, weaponizable, and actively used by peer adversaries, necessitating government recognition and response.
- Public awareness and scientific validation are critical to developing effective defenses and policies.

Speaker A
Them serious neurological symptoms known as Havana Syndrome are primarily documented among American diplomats and intelligence personnel.
Speaker A
Stationed overseas. But now, is the threat domestic? And could symptoms be linked to directed energy attacks? Remember, directed energy weapons are invisible weapons that fire concentrated energy at the speed of light.
Speaker A
We're joined now by four to center knowledge Georgetown, Dr. James Droppedor Dano. He also served as a forensic nurse, neuroscientist on the original Havana case. It's great to see a doctor. Thank you so much for being here. So we've
Speaker A
been covering this. It's scary when you hear about it happening to officers overseas, people in the military. But have you seen any evidence of directed energy use here on American soil?
Speaker A
Into tools being what appears to be urging and forms of rapidly post microwave energy domestically, two cases in Florida, cases in the Delaware, Maryland, DC area, and some cases on the West Coast as well.
Speaker A
So I get yours on to this because we spoke to investigative journalist Catherine Herridge recently and she had this to say about these types of weapons.
Speaker A
Listen. Based on my reporting, there seem to be multiple types of weapons. I think what I'll call the old school style weapon are weapons that are built into the infrastructure of many of the people that I've spoken to say they were
Speaker A
attacked in hotel rooms. They essentially had their brains kind of fried overnight. I mean, that's the simple explanation.
Speaker A
What kind of capabilities do these weapons have in addition to what she was exposed to? And, you know, do they have the potential to be deadly?
Speaker A
And so my conversations with Catherine Herridge, I really thank you very much to DEP's and stringency her reporting. She's actually right. There are essentially two generations of these weapons.
Speaker A
The first thing to be sonic weapons working in the ultrasonic range, and they tend to produce over excitation hollow cavities in full counties like the inner ear, but that can also communicate through the bloodstream to the
Speaker A
brain, to create some like a mini stroke-like effect, those regional injuries. Guys, you may recall, originally referred to as the immaculate concussion, but then subsequent generations of these types of weapons, a of devices also produce very rapidly post microwaves that
Speaker A
don't have the thermal signature and utilize a laser to post like which very, very quickly away form is preserved, but without the necessary thermal signature, no heat and without the need for large power sources that make these very, very scalable.
Speaker A
Not know these operate disrupt neurological integrity of the nodes and networks in the brain, both in the short term, then certainly in the longer term we've been seeing.
Speaker A
So the cute more chronic effects on your gnomic system, heart rate, immune system, endocrine function, and these can be very debilitating in the long term. So we're just showing a graphic on the screen about how we use the
Speaker A
U.S. government uses these directed energy weapons to push back drones, to push military forces. But we have seen this happening here based on the reporting that we've concern is that this could be used in a backpack by a
Speaker A
Russian spy or someone walk right up to something like the Executive Office Building in Washington, D.C., or other government buildings and direct energy towards people working in that building. You talked about scale. You know, we worry about drones all the
Speaker A
time because they're scalable. You can fly one into a stadium. You can find one over and events. It seems like this is similar in the sense that you could put it into a small backpack or other portable way of
Speaker A
getting at somewhere and use it against someone. So how do we combat that as a government and make sure that people are being safe, especially here at home?
Speaker A
Correct. Full-scale ability of these weapons is certainly one of indie areas in progress over the past 6 to 10 years.
Speaker A
Now, at this point, they're not scalable to the point to be mounted on very small scale drones. But to your point, they are backpack notable there. Certainly multiple in vehicles, vans, automobiles, which make some very viable for clandestine or even covert
Speaker A
attacks in public on the street, on the sidewalk. And Goma soils. So the question then is what do we do about it? Well, the first part is very important. We have to define that these things are
Speaker A
real. The technology is there. It is not science fiction. It's not fictional fantasy Reagan stuff. The technology exists, needs to set a point that can be weaponized and is being weaponized by peer competitors, adversaries. And now these being used
Speaker A
domestically, number one. Number two, we're developing mechanisms of detecting these at a distance in architecture and then personal detection systems as well. Number three, we defend against those types of things other ways by blocking the actual signal in the wave
Speaker A
by producing types of garments that would deflect them. If individuals are targeted, but also early stage detection of the biological effects of that individuals can be treated early. Probably continuously is needed. Now, the next stage is a larger
Speaker A
scale of defense will be sometimes called bang. In other words, what can we do on a global scale to begin to guide government control and regulate these types of weapons? And there's been some progress being made on international signatory
Speaker A
treaties, for example, the biological toxins and weapons convention to include direct double energies as a viable form of IOWA.
Speaker A
All this is fascinating. Thank you so much, Doctor James Charred, for coming out to talk.
