AIDS As Biological & Psychological
Warfare Despite repeated denials from Defense Department
officials, allegations persist that AIDS is a genetically altered
virus, which has been deliberately released to wipe out homosexuals
and/or non-whites in the U.S. and reduce populations in third world
countries.
At first glance it seems like the epitome of paranoia to
accuse the military of conspiring to exterminate citizens of their own
country, and even some of their own troops. However, the vast
majority of military personnel could be completely unaware of such a
plot in their midst, while a relative handful of traitors in key
positions could conduct it under cover of classified operations. And
the circumstantial evidence is actually quite compelling, that the
AIDS virus was artificially engineered, and planted in several
different locations at about the same time through vaccination
programs, and possibly blood bank contamination.
At a House Appropriations hearing in 1969, the Defense
Department's Biological Warfare (BW) division requested funds to
develop through gene-splicing a new disease that would both resist and
break down a victim's immune system. "Within the next 5 to 10 years
it would probably be possible to make a new
infective micro-organism which could differ in certain important
respects from any known disease-causing organisms. Most
important of these is that it might be refractory to the
immunological and therapeutic processes upon which we depend to
maintain our relative freedom from infectious diseases." (See -
A Higher Form of Killing: The Secret Story of Chemical and
Biological Warfare by R. Harris and J. Paxman, p 266, Hill and
Wang, pubs.) The funds were approved.
AIDS appeared within the requested time frame, and has
the exact characteristics specified.
In 1972, the World Health Organization published a
similar proposal: "An attempt should be made to ascertain whether
viruses can in fact exert selective effects on immune function, e.g.,
by ...affecting T cell function as opposed to B cell function. The
possibility should also be looked into that the immune response to the
virus itself may be impaired if the infecting virus damages more or
less selectively the cells responding to the viral antigens."
(Bulletin of the W.H.O., vol. 47, p 257-274.) This is a clinical
description of the function of the AIDS virus.
The incidence of AIDS infections in Africa coincides
exactly with the locations of the W.H.O. smallpox vaccination program
in the mid-1970's (London Times, May 11, 1987). Some 14,000 Haitians
then on UN secondment to Central Africa were also vaccinated in this
campaign. Personnel actually conducting the vaccinations may have
been completely unaware that the vaccine was anything other than what
they were told.
A striking feature of AIDS is that it's ethno-selective.
The rate of infection is twice as high among Blacks, Latinos and
Native Americans as among whites, with death coming two to three times
as swiftly. And over 80% of the children with AIDS and 90% of infants
born with it are among these minorities. "Ethnic weapons" that would
strike certain racial groups more heavily than others have been a
long-standing U.S. Army BW objective. (Harris and Paxman, p 265)
Under the current U.S. administration biological warfare
research spending has increased 500 percent, primarily in the area of
genetic engineering of new disease organisms.
The "discovery" of the AIDS virus (HTLV3) was announced
by Dr. Robert Gallo at the National Cancer Institute, which is on the
grounds of Fort Detrick, Maryland, a primary U.S. Army biological
warfare research facility. Actually, the AIDS virus looks and acts
much more like a cross between a bovine leukemia virus and a sheep
visna (brain-rot) virus, cultured in a human cell culture, than any
virus of the HTLV group.
The closest thing in this case to a "smoking test tube"
so far is the AIDS virus itself. If it was possible for such a
monstrosity to occur naturally it would have done so ages ago and
decimated mankind at that time. Some other life form would presently
be in control of this planet (assuming that is not already the case).
The Hepatitis B vaccine study in 1978 appears to have
been the initial means of planting the infection in New York City.
The test protocol specified non-monogamous males only, and
homosexuals received a different vaccine from heterosexuals. At
least 25-50% of the first reported New York AIDS cases in 1981
had received the Hepatitis B test vaccine in 1978. By 1984, 64%
of the vaccine recipients had AIDS, and the figures on the
current infection rate for the participants of that study are
held by the U.S. Department of Justice, and "unavailable."
The AIDS epidemic emerged full-blown in the three U.S.
cities with "organized gay communities" before being reported
elsewhere, including Haiti or Africa, so it is epidemiologically
impossible for either of those countries to be the origin point for
the U.S. infections.
Another indication AIDS had multiple origin points is
that the 14-month doubling time of the disease cannot nearly account
for the current number of cases if we assume only a small number of
initial infections starting in the late 1970s.
Before dismissing the possibility that a U.S. Army BW
facility would participate in genocide, bear in mind that hundreds of
top Nazis were imported into key positions in the U.S.
military-intelligence establishment following WW II. U.S. military
priorities were then re-oriented from defeating Nazis to
"defeating" communism at any cost, and strengthening military
control of economic and foreign policy decisions (See - Project
Paperclip by Clarence Lasby, Atheneum 214, NY, and Gehlen: Spy of
the Century by E.H. Cookridge, Random House.) There's no proof
those Nazis ever gave up their long-term goals of conquest and
genocide, just because they changed countries. Fascism was and
is an international phenomenon.
It's not as if this was total reversal of previous U.S.
military policy, however. Hitler claimed to have gotten his
inspiration for the "final solution" from the extermination of Native
Americans in the U.S. For that matter the first example of germ
warfare in the U.S. was in 1763 when some of the European
colonists gave friendly Indians a number of blankets that had
been infected with smallpox, causing many deaths.
One indication of the actual U.S. military priorities
regarding BW was the importation of the entire Japanese germ warfare
unit (#731) following WW II. These people killed over 3000 POWs,
including many Americans, in a variety of grisly experiments, yet they
were granted complete amnesty and given American military positions in
exchange for sharing their research findings with their U.S. Army
counterparts.
Consider also the callous attitude displayed by top
military officials toward veterans suffering from the after-effects of
exposure to Agent Orange and radiation from nuclear weapons tests.
In fact, since the end of WW II over 200 experimental BW
tests have been conducted on civilians and military personnel in the
U.S. One example was the test spraying from Sept. 20-26, 1950 of
bacillus globigi and syraceus maracezens over 117 square miles of the
San Francisco area, causing pneumonia-like infections in many of the
residents. The family of one elderly man who died in the test sued
the government, but lost. To this day, syraceus is a leading cause of
death among the elderly in the San Francisco area. Another case was
the joint Army-CIA BW test in 1955, still classified, in which an
undisclosed bacteria was released in the Tampa Bay region of Florida,
causing a dramatic increase in whooping cough infections, including
twelve deaths. A third example was the July 7-10, 1966 release of
bacteria throughout the New York subway system, conducted by the U.S.
Army's Special Operations Division. Due to the vast number of people
exposed it would virtually impossible to identify, let alone prove,
and specific health problems resulting directly from this test.
Despite the loyalty of the vast majority of U.S.
military personnel toward their country, there are clearly some
military officials who have very different intentions, and they occupy
high enough positions to impose their priorities on military programs
and get away with it, so far.
The first detailed charges regarding AIDS as a BW weapon
were published in the Patriot newspaper in New Delhi, India, on July
4, 1984. It is hard to say where the investigations of this story in
the Indian press might have led, if they had not been sidetracked by
two major domestic disasters shortly thereafter: the assassination of
Indira Gandhi on Oct. 31 and the Bhopal Union Carbide plant "accident"
that killed several thousand and injured over 200,000 on Dec. 3.
The Soviet press picked up the story on October 1985,
making it easy for U.S. Defense Department spokesmen to dismiss the
charges as "Soviet propaganda," even though many other countries
carried it. The Soviets recently retracted the charges, in the new
spirit of US-USSR cooperation.
A variation on the AIDS-BW theory that is popular in
far-right publications is that AIDS was developed in Soviet
laboratories for use against the U.S. An obvious problem with this
idea is that the victims of choice of a Soviet BW attack would be
anti-communists, not minorities or homosexuals, who are generally more
left-wing. The people at greatest risk from AIDS in the U.S. are in
fact the very elements most disliked by arch-conservatives. In any
case, it is simplistic to assume that one country, U.S. or USSR, is
conducting this campaign against one another. Although concealed in
apparent conflicts between nations, the real culprits are
multi-national fascists on both "sides" still bent on massive
population reductions and global domination.
Other motives include the old "divide and conquer"
principle; AIDS is inspiring fear and mistrust between people, and
scaring them away from relating to each other at the basic level of
sexuality. It is acting as a barrier to the attempted cultural
resurgence toward peace, love and cooperation. Of high school
students surveyed last year as to which decade they'd most like to
have grown up in, 90% chose the 60's. The last thing pro-war fascists
want is another "love generation," especially if it is more
politically sophisticated than the last one.
Apparently, homosexuals were an initial target in the
U.S. because their sexual practices would help in the rapid spread of
the disease, and because it was correctly assumed that very few
non-homosexual citizens would pay much attention during the early
years of the epidemic. Also, the stigma of a "homosexual disease"
would interfere with rational analysis and discussion of AIDS. Bear
in mind that homosexuals were among the first to be exterminated in
Nazi Germany, before Jews or other minorities, so fewer citizens would
object.
The details of precisely how the AIDS virus was
synthesized, mass cultured, and spread by incorporating into
vaccination programs are available but fairly intricate. It is beyond
the scope of this report to present a crash course in virology,
epidemiology, genetic engineering, and the military strategies of
international fascism. Readers are encouraged to obtain and study the
references cited here, and demand a full inquiry. Those officials who
are actually involved in the coverup will reveal it by their inaction
when pressed to investigate.
Evil is hard to confront, especially on the preposterous
scale we have here. If you acknowledge the presence of those who
think their only hope for survival is to kill off two thirds of all
the other kinds, and their ability to manage it, you then pretty much
have to do something about it.
