- DESIGNER DISEASES
-
- AIDS As Biological & Psychological Warfare
-
- by Waves Forrest
-
- 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 leukemial virus and
- a sheep visna (brain-rot) virus, cultured in a human cell cul
- ture, 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.
