U.S. Biological Weapons in the Korean War? w/ Dr. Jeffrey Kaye

If you appreciate Parallax Views and the work of J.G. Michael please consider supporting the show through Patreon at https://www.patreon.com/parallaxviews On this edition of Parallax Views, allegations of U.S. germ warfare (or biological warfare) being used on populations in the Korean War have long been dismissed as a conspiracy theory hatched by the Soviet Union as a disinformation campaign on America. Dr. Jeffrey Kaye, author of Cover-Up at Guantanamo Bay: THE NCIS Investigation into the "Suicides" of Mohammad Al Hanashi and Abdul Rahman Al Amri, however, has been pouring over documents from the CIA's "Baptism by Fire" files on the Korean War that may lend credence to the claims of U.S. biowarfare being used in the conflict. In this conversation Dr. Kaye and I discuss his prior work on Guantanamo Bay and then take a deep dive into the history of biowarfare from Japan's Unit 731, a WWII program led by Gen. Shiro Ishii, to the claims of U.S. biowarfare in the Korean War. In regards to Unit 731, where grotesque war crimes and experiments took place, we discuss Gen. Shiro Ishii's involvement with the U.S. in the post-war period and the amnesty that was granted to Unit 731 after the war by the U.S.. We also make mention of the Tuskegee Institute Syphilis study. Biowarfare experiments of the past involved anthrax, live human dissections, cholera, plague infested fleas, dysentery, and more. From there we discuss the accusation that claims of biological warfare used by the U.S. in the Korean War are merely Soviet propaganda and hoax. Dr. Kaye makes the case that this isn't necessarily true and offers evidence to the contrary. In making this case Dr. Kaye specifically refers to the "Baptism by Fire" documents that were recently declassified by the CIA. Dr. Kaye explains in details the claims of CIA biological warfare in this time period and why the "Baptism by Fire" documents are such an important revelation.
