He conducted briefings on non-lethal warfare at the highest levels of government, participated in a Council on Foreign Relations study of non-lethal weapons and chaired the first major conference on the topic.

Currently he is a member of the (Canadian) National Research Council Committee for Assessment of Non-Lethal Weapons Science and Technology. His latest book is Future War: Non-Lethal Weapons in Twenty-First-Century Warfare

John B. Alexander, Retired US Army Colonel and “non-lethal” weapons expert, describes the reality of conflicts that are already beginning to take place, both in foreign lands and in our cities. Col.

• electromagnetic weapons,
• chemical options,
• various forms of restraint,
• low-impact weapons,
• acoustical weapons,

Interview with Washington Post

In the Wahsington Post, Sunday, January 14, 2007; W22, By Sharon Weinberger, Mind Games,

New on the Internet: a community of people who believe the government is beaming voices into their minds. They may be crazy, but the Pentagon has pursued a weapon that can do just that.

Alexander acknowledged that

"there were some abuses that took place,"

but added that, on the whole,

"I would argue we threw the baby out with the bath water."

By saying this, Alexander and his group of people admitted that they had done, whatever it is, to the INNOCENT people.

Here are questions.

• What is it that, he and his group of people have been doing, especially under whose authority?
• If and only if he and his group of people have done the illegal activity, harming the innocent civilians including foreign-born, then could these people be brought into the JUSTICE?
