There is no Havana syndrome weapon, however; I work as a janitor for the warehouse with the Chinese beam that makes Americans stupid and not only it exists; it's been working great for a couple of decades!

Looks like it's working!
Hmmm, the US is looking for excuses to attack everyone now and the Pentagon has dusted off a secret "weapon" just at the right time.
There’s something here, but I can’t tell what. Being dismissive of this seems wrong to me.
I also think it’s wrong for the UFO people to suggest this is caused by UAP.
yeah there is something definitely wrong here; about how americans are always making stupid shit up like this.
The question is: when they tested the device, on whom did they test it?
...totally unrelated article here
I had Havana Syndrome once. Felt like I'd been rolled on the thigh on a virgin, smuggled into the US, clipped down one end and set on fire at the other, before some giant sucked smoke out of me. Crazy days.
Havana syndrome is a joke.
Yeah like all the police claiming to have overdosed on fentanyl after touching suspects, even going so far as to writhe on the ground, but who were later have been found to have nothing in their system.
They can't even determine what caused these illnesses let alone claim they know who did it and with what object.
My tinfoil conspiracy: The US government brought in fentanyl and adulterated all the incoming supplies of everything they could , flooded the market with it for cutting, and just let that become the norm, so they could finally punish all those hippie druggies once and for all.
You know, like they did with crack in black communities in the 90s but with a larger scope.
crack walked so fent could run
This isn't even tinfoil hat level, it's literally something they've done before (with crack).
No one has blown the whistle on it yet, but I will be 0% surprised if they do.
Except the US has denied this from the get go. Not the same as the police pretending to have contact overdose.
Havana syndrome is apparently symptoms of a targeted weapon the Pentagon is using in Cuba.
I mean that would be a little bit more plausible, although the article claims the opposite—that the device is super mysterious and the Americans don't even know how to use it.
It sounds like someone pulled off a sweet scam though, getting "eight figures" for what sounds like a backpack full of cobbled together radio hardware.
Reminds me of an old book/movie, Our Man in Havana.
This vacume cleaner salesman somehow has the schematics for his vacume found by the cia when he's in havana and the cia thinks it's some weapon schematics and they get all deep into this espianage with him, he's clueless. From what I recall I only was part of it once.
