LETTER: Doubt about group backing 5G ad in paper

I’m writing regarding the full-color, double-page ad that appeared in the Jefferson County and Clallam County editions of the PDN on Friday April 12 headed “INTERNATIONAL APPEAL — Stop 5G on Earth and in Space.”

Perhaps you noticed the ad was paid for by the Olympic Peninsula Regenerative Agricultural Alliance.

The Agricultural Alliance boasts 52 followers on its Facebook page.

In 2018, most of its posts were agriculture-related but since January, its focus has been supporting anti-vaxxers and opposing 5G.

Its website is plain vanilla and lists many local organizations that you will recognize but no projects of its own and many of the links lead nowhere.

Meetup times are all to be determined.

The spokesman for the ad is Arthur Firstenberg.

Among his many accomplishments was filing a lawsuit against his Santa Fe, N.M., neighbor, seeking damages of $530,000, for “refusing to turn off her cell phone and other electronic devices.”

He claimed that because of shared wiring, electromagnetic fields from his neighbor’s electronic devices were keeping him up at night and destroying his health.

He stated that he was made homeless as a result.

The case was dismissed.

Where do you think the money came from for that kind of an ad buy in the PDN?

What is this organization? What are they doing in our community?

I hope someone will enlighten me and provide information on their funding.
