Just when you thought it was safe to
revisit the subject of Antarctica, or perhaps, even thought it was the
one safe place on Earth to vacation – perhaps lounge on the shore and
throw in your fishing line, or have a nice leisurely ski vacation, or
maybe just to sit by the fire, enjoying a good book and a brandy and
cigar – the place seems to defy sense. It refuses to go away or walk
quietly off the stage. Just when you think the curtain has gone down on
all the high strangeness there, strangeness struts onstage again.
But this one may be even stranger than strange.
Yes, that’s right, stranger than the
strangeness of people associated with the place. Stranger than Hermann
Goering, Patriarch Kiril III of Moscow, John Kerry. Even stranger than
Apollo astronaut Buz Aldrin.
In fact, it’s so stranger that
when people sent me various articles about it, I didn’t believe it. But
then I found something that confirmed the wild articles people were
sending me on a government website. But when I read the website, I not
only said “You’re kidding,” but I made an exact print out of it, to make
a picture, so I can post it here along with the link, should said
government decide to live down to its reputation as perfide Albion
and remove its posting. To use the colloquialism, I was gobsmacked when
I read it. So, with a big “thank you” to all of you who found this
story, without further ado, the link:
And here’s the pictures:
UK Antarctica Travel Alert Article
Now, a simple search through the website
reveals what is just routine boilerplate: How to get married in
Antarctica, and so on. Easily programmed by any competent programmer
tasked with the monstrous job of programming a government website: “How
to get married in [fill in the blank here]; contact the [Fill in the
appropriate bureaucracy here].” Hence, when we come to the lines
advising “Take out comprehensive travel and medical insurance (the
appropriate UK.gov link follows), specifying Antarctica, before
you travel,” one can be fairly certain that the entire sentence was
simple standard programmed boilerplate, and that “Antarctica” is the
variable here.
So in that context, consider this line:
“Although there’s no recent history of terrorism in the British Antarctic Territory, attack’s can’t be ruled out.”
And then follows yet another helpful link to aid you in planning your fun-filled family vacation to New Brighton-on-the-ice.
Now, 98% of me thinks the line is just
standard, pre-programmed boilerplate, the usual bland “we’re your
government and we’re here to pretend we’re being helpful” sort of thing.
After all, access to Antarctica is strictly controlled; in fact, it’s
the one place on earth where borders are strictly controlled,
and so far, the controllers don’t seem too interested in setting up
cells of ISIS, Al Qaeda, Daesh, the Irish Republican Army, Irgun,
Bakhuninites, or whatever its current “approved-name-of-the-month”
happens to be.
It’s that remaining 2% that bothers me (as you probably guessed), for suppose that the “travel alert” is not
standard boiler plate. High octane speculation? To be sure. But
suppose, for a moment, it’s not boiler plate. That would mean, in turn,
that the door has been cracked, just a bit, to reveal that the southern
polar continent is a place of violence, not global warming, not
increasing ozone holes, not melting icecaps, not oddly and unusually
warm weather, but a place of human violence. A place where some sort of waris being waged. A place where the stakes are high enough that terrorism is a viable strategy.
I read that line, and I cannot help but think of the three part article that appeared in Nexus
magazine in late 2005 and early 2006, recounting via the usual
“anonymous whistleblower” a story of SIS commandos fighting it out on
the southern polar ice with “polar men.” I cannot help but think of last
year’s trip of US Secretary of State John Kerry to the continent; I
cannot help but think of the Patriarch of Moscow’s visit, of Buzz
Aldrin’s visit, of Hermann Goering’s sponsorship of a Nazi expedition
there. And when I put the announcement in that context, that slim 2% would seem, in my opinion, to grow…
While you’re contemplating all that, consider this article from RT:
That’s right… those reactors down there could be snatched up by terrorists posing as tourists… or… perhaps someone else left “dirty bomb parts” down there…
See you on the flip side…

Tidbit: Perhaps this has something to do with it
Perhaps this story has something to do
with today’s main blog: the United Arab Emirates wants to tow an iceberg
to the Middle East…
