"A little learning is a
dangerous thing"

"'Two strange phenomena have come about in Basra [Iraq] which I have never seen before. The first is double and triple cancers in one patient... Dr Yasin, a general Surgeon here has two uncles, a sister and cousin affected with cancer. Dr Mazen, another specialist, has six family members suffering from cancer. My wife has nine members of her family with cancer'.

Doctors in southern Iraq are making comparisons to the birth defects that followed the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in WWII. They have numerous photos of infants born without brains, with their internal organs outside their bodies, without sexual organs, without spines, and the list of deformities goes on an on. Such birth defects were extremely rare in Iraq prior to the large scale use of DU weapons. Now they are commonplace."

"[Prof.] Pianka then began laying out his concerns about how human overpopulation is ruining the Earth. He presented a doomsday scenario... War and famine would not do, he explained. Instead, disease offered the most efficient and fastest way to kill the billions that must soon die if the population crisis is to be solved.

[Later that day], the distinguished leaders of the Texas Academy of Science presented Pianka with a plaque in recognition of his being named 2006 Distinguished Texas Scientist."

Here is a partial transcript of the speech by Prof. Pianka, along with several other sources that witnessed it.

• Bird flu update

Health
2006-03-24

"This virus is quite different from what we see with the standard annual flu...because of the cytokine storm [a fatal immune response] it causes. In 1918, the vast majority of the people who died were healthy young people, 20 to 40 years of age...

If you put 1918 H1N1 into animal models at very, very low doses, it basically kills all of them in 24 hours. The lab science people had never seen that... The only virus that was similar was H5N1, and it was fatal at much lower doses. H5N1 is the most powerful influenza virus we've seen in modern human history."

-- Dr. Michael Osterholm, City Pages interview, 2006-03

"It made me wonder just how many bio-hazard labs were in operation and what other new germs they were engineering... I wondered why the first SARS deaths involved Asian scientists working in a biohazard lab with West Nile Virus and bird flu... "

A "global health summit" was recently sponsored by media giant Time Warner, featuring the usual cast of celebrities and billionaire do-gooders including Bill Clinton, Bill Gates, and Ted Turner. The speakers list also includes Paul Wolfowitz, current head of the World Bank.

Why would these elitists actually want to "cure" AIDS when it is doing such an excellent job of fulfilling their eco-socialist goal of population reduction?

From Senate bill S. 1873 the Biodefense and Pandemic Vaccine and Drug Development Act: "...a manufacturer, distributor, or administrator of a security countermeasure, or a qualified pandemic and epidemic product, or a health care provider shall be immune from suit or liability caused by or arising out of the design, development, clinical testing and investigation, manufacture, labeling, distribution, sale, purchase, donation, dispensing, prescribing, administration, or use of a countermeasure, or a qualified pandemic and epidemic product..."

• Bird flu frenzy

Health
2005-11-01

"Against all scientific prudence and normal public health procedure, the world population is being whipped up into a fear frenzy by irresponsible public health officials...

In 1997 Donald H. Rumsfeld was named Chairman of the Board of Gilead Sciences, where he remained until early 2001 when he became Defense Secretary.... [he is] one of its largest if not the largest stock owners today... President Bush has ordered the US Government to buy $2 billion worth of Gilead Science's Tamiflu... "

"There is a close connection between the rise of genetic engineering and mixing of viruses in the early 1970s and the outbreak of HIV in the late 1970s. This connection persists in the form of the many unprecedented "emerging diseases" caused by "new viruses" that continue up to the present time...

In 1979 the first cases of AIDS in gay men were reported from Manhattan... Five years later, Gallo, who had worked for the Virus Cancer Program (VCP), "discovered" the retrovirus that causes AIDS; and Duesberg, who also worked for the VCP, continues to declare that HIV is harmless."

"We are faced with a species-killer, a global war on humanity, silently out-pacing anything but all-out nuclear conflagration. To those of us in North America, to those of us who are healthy, these figures, this plague, seem distant often, happening to others... AIDS is about all of us and our generation surviving the crass dementia of some ruling class. Like the virus, the enemy is within the social body, feasting on it."

The author reviews the development and deployment of AIDS as a bioweapon for population control. Not all of his sources are verifiable, but the circumstantial evidence certainly seems to support his contention.

• Aspartame poisoning

Health
2005-10-23

"Hundreds of thousands of consumers, more likely millions, currently suffer major reactions to products containing aspartame. Today, every physician probably encounters aspartame disease in everyday practice, especially among patients with illnesses that are undiagnosed or difficult to treat...

Aspartame is made up of three chemicals: the amino acids aspartic acid and phenylalanine, and methanol... Aspartame readily breaks down into its component parts in a variety of circumstances: in liquids; during prolonged storage; when exposed to heat in excess of 86° Fahrenheit (30° Centigrade); and when ingested. These constituents further break down into other toxic by-products..."

Donald Rumsfeld was the political player who succeeded in getting Aspartame approved by the U.S. government back in 1981, bypassing the objections of FDA scientists.
