- Inside the Soviet Red Zone
Dr. Shafhid mesmerizes the audience with his own personal account as a military doctor and officer struggling to fit within the confines of a controlled communist Soviet regime. His story will catapult the listener into the underground world of black market trade, Russia’s weapons of mass destruction classified programs, their cover-ups and operations, and the perils of life behind the Iron Curtain.
- Civil Defense: Does America Need It?
Huge WMD arsenals threaten the world, and it is mind-boggling that the United States of America has not yet built a solid civil defense system for its people after 9-11. Few hospitals have programs in place for biological releases of any kind. Emergency stockpiles and bunkers don’t exist for civilians for any kind of nuclear, chemical, or bio attack in the majority of U.S. cities. People are clueless of the evacuation and decontamination procedures that might be available. Borders and ports remain an open invitation to “come on in.”
This edge-of-your-seat presentation is based on the unique characteristics of the Soviet National Civil Defense programs during the cold war with the United States, and how those same characteristics, if implemented, could protect the United States population in the event of a terrorist attack. Dr. Shafhid will discuss the reasons behind America’s sluggish mind-set in developing a solid civil-defense plan, and explain what Americans can do to speed up the process.
- Socialism in America—How America is Losing its Freedom
This presentation will expose the different faces of communism infiltrating the present democratic society worldwide, the psychology of communism and how it is changing the world today, and what we can do to protect our freedoms.
- America Under Pressure—What Happens if there is a Biological Outbreak?
Due to recent concerns over pandemic flu’s and biological terrorism, and the fact that the United States is a prime target, Dr. Shafhid will discuss what Americans can do to prepare.
- Preparing for the Future within a Volatile World
What can God’s people do to prepare for the grim possibility––some say certainty––of a terrorist attack on American soil? Plenty! Dr. Igor Shafhid, an ex-Soviet military doctor and counter-terrorist specialist who trains FBI, military, police, firemen, doctors, and other first response professionals, will offer the answers needed to alleviate the worries that come with global threats of terrorism.
- Civil Defense from a Russian Perspective
Should civil defense be a style of life for the American population like it was for the USSR? Dr. Shafhid says, “Yes! A proper civil defense program is an investment that will save the life of a nation. Without it a country will economically, politically, and socially perish.”
-
The Reality of Weapons of Mass Destruction in the World Today
With the reality that nations who support terrorism are constantly being supported by Russia’s government and private businesses, through the use of sophisticated military technology and armory, Dr. Shafhid will expose how serious these threats really are, and what should be done to counter such catastrophic weapons of mass destruction. Dr. Shafhid is able to hand-deliver the public detailed solutions on how to manage WMD/terrorist incidents.
- The Present Cold War
Did the tearing down of the Iron Curtain bring a change within the Russian government? Is communism over, as most people in the Western world think, or are those nasty roots of control growing strong within the present Russian command? Dr. Shafhid, an ex-Soviet officer who mingled with high ranking officials because his father-in-law was a 3rd star general, will compare the past Soviet regime with the very present “Cold War” now blossoming within the Russian Federation. He will talk about Russia’s new and improved totalitarian government, why he thinks it has no intention of embracing democracy, and what this could mean for the democratic West.
- How real is the Wrath of Terrorism?
Many Americans are asking the question, “Since there has been no terrorist attacks on American soil since 9-11, do we really need to be concerned about future strikes?”
“Absolutely!” declares Dr. Shafhid, a counter-terrorist specialist. “Few American understand the dark side of the terrorist network, and they should. The most important part of being prepared is understanding the enemy mindset. The tactics of global terrorism is never limited to distance and time.” The audience will be riveted by this dose of truth.
- Chernobyl–The Biggest Environmental Catastrophe and Cover-up in the World
Dr. Shafhid will discuss the Nuclear Plant Incident that happened in the USSR in 1986, when mass amounts of toxic radioactive waste materials exploded into the atmosphere, reaching nations as far as United States, creating a global environmental hazard unprecedented in the history of mankind. He will expose the Soviet government corruption and deception that took place during the response, which included the hush-up to other nations on the imminent threat of radiation poison moving across the skies, the unnecessary delays in evacuation procedures on civilian populations, and the truth behind the radiation levels hidden from the Russian people and the whole world. Because of the Chernobyl blast incident 27 million people were directly affected by radioactive fallout. 250,000 acres of land became heavily contaminated––and today it is still unusable.
The United States has 105 active nuclear plants. How safe are Americans from a similar catastrophe? Dr. Shafhid will provide a compelling lecture on the pros and cons of nuclear plants, how protected they are from terrorists, and what the population can do in the event of a similar release of radioactive material over U.S. territories.
- Biological Terrorism—Myth and Realities
Over 70 years ago Russia discovered the deadly power behind man-made diseases, and spent billions of dollars developing them into weapons. This research is still going on in Russia today as sophisticated biological materials are engineered and stored in numerous military facilities. Interest in obtaining these deadly bio-weapons is extremely high, especially by terrorist nations like Iran, Syria, and North Korea. This amazing lecture by Dr. Shafhid is like stepping inside the frame of a mind-boggling science fiction movie. The audience will be on the edge of their seats as he addresses the myths and realities associated with bio-terrorism, and what risks we, as a nation, face with such weaponry available.
- International WMD Black Market
Dr. Shafhid exposes the outrageous covert operations of Soviet Russia’s WMD programs, and what these dangerous weapons, which are being sold on the black market today, mean to American safety. He will end the presentation with pointers on what Americans can to do protect themselves in the event of an actual large-scale disaster.
- Global Influence on Organized Crime
The end of the Soviet Union in 1991 started the free Russian enterprise, which bred the most dangerous and influential criminal organizations on a global scale. These mobsters branched out globally and have become powerfully meshed together with huge business and government organizations, so much so that that they now control and sell gas, oil, minerals, energy, gold, diamonds, and armory on a world-wide scale. Dr. Shafhid will describe the roots of these criminal groups, their influences in the global market, and where the U.S. fits into their corrupt system.
- Recognizing the Signs of Terrorism
Many Americans were psychologically affected by the 9-11 tragedy. But fear should not be sitting on our shoulders. Dr. Shafhid presents a clear-cut lecture on how to deal with possible terrorism––including how to recognize strange behavior in people and the unusual objects they might be carrying or leaving behind in subways, train stations, or airports. He will teach you how to react if you do spot a suspicious person, or find yourself in the middle of a terrorist hijacking.
- The Chechen Syndrome
What makes a 12 or 13 year-old child willing to be used as a suicide bomber? Dr. Shafhid will take a neutral position and discuss the war between Chechnya and Russia, revealing the different mindsets between both cultures.
- How to Avoid the Stockholm Syndrome during a Terrorist Attack
The Stockholm Syndrome is named from an incident in 1973 when four Swedes, held in a bank vault for six days during a robbery, became attached to their captors. There is never a good outcome for the hostage if they become sympathetic with the terrorist mindset. Terrorists are not just political activists; they can be a kidnapper, rapist, bank robber, or crazed person with a gun. Dr. Shafhid will instruct the audience on how to avoid becoming a pawn of manipulation by their abductor.
- Governments Biggest Weapon—Mind Control on Populations
Altering the minds of the masses was Russia’s way to take over the world and become the only superpower. The Soviet government spent millions of dollars to keep the communistic party alive. But is Russia the only country adopting mind-manipulation techniques on the masses? No. Mind control must be understood as a serious threat to freedom. It is always the first weapon used to secure a socialist reign or dictatorship rule. In this day and age of brilliant technological advancements, people cannot be naive about the potential of mind control––in any country.
Mind control has most often been thought of in relation to cults or religious groups, where usually one leader has the uncanny ability to hypnotize, manipulate or emotionally pull people into an allegiance to his own singular views. Using the latest Star War technologies, such control broadens into a much wider scope. Mind control is as serious a threat as any nuclear or biological attack, and must be brought into the open and discussed, especially in the age of televisions, the internet, and text messaging.
- Defensive Measures against Terrorist Attacks at the workPlace
After 9-11 many prominent businesses perished in the rubble of the Twin Towers destruction. What if the next attack targets a place of business with chemical, radiological, or biological substances? Dr. Shafhid will not only help large corporations and private institutions understand these threats, but provide them with the needed steps to minimize casualties in the event of such attacks. Necessary supplies and an emergency kit list will be given, along with the styles of evacuation, depending on the type of attack.
- Civil Defense against Weapons of Mass Destruction for Colleges and Schools
Schools and universities can be affected by large-scale professional man-made WMD terrorist attacks, even if the building is miles away from the event. Dr. Shafhid will explain safety procedures for students and faculty in the event of WMD terrorism. He will list what items should be on hand, along with providing evacuation instruction out of contaminated areas.
- Pandemic Preparedness for Schools, Private Businesses, Corporations, Etc.
Procedures on what to do, step by step, in the event of a pandemic quarantine.
