Troops initially were told that no such infection existed and that the problem was mostly in their minds. But over the years, authorities were forced to admit that something had triggered severe illness in many Gulf War veterans. Curiously, French troops who served in the Gulf War did not receive the same mix of vaccines as the British and Americans and did not suffer from Gulf War syndrome. Apparently their undamaged immunization systems were able to withstand the mycoplasma attack.
A 1993 staff report to Senator Donald W. Riegle Jr., entitled “Gulf War Syndrome: The Case for Multiple Origin Mixed Chemical/Biotoxin Warfare Related Disorders,” contrasts the relationship between the high rate of Gulf War illnesses among troops exposed to direct agent attacks and the much lower rates among those exposed only to the indirect fallout from coalition bombings of Iraqi chemical, biological, and nuclear targets. Because the U.S. military was not likely to reveal one of its most secret biochemical weapons or face liability by admitting that it had been sold to Saddam Hussein, the report concluded that vaccines “were to blame for the troops’ illnesses.” However, the report also hinted at the possibility of other causes, stating, “While other possible causes of the Gulf War Syndrome, such as petrochemical poisoning, depleted uranium exposure, and regionally prevalent diseases, have been discussed, no other explanation proves as compelling.”
Although Riegle’s report was completed in September 1993, it was not made available until April 1997, when the American Gulf War Veterans Association was finally able to obtain a copy. Not only were service members being forced to take untested vaccines, many veterans were not receiving adequate medical care due to missing medical records. The Senate Veterans Affairs Committee Report 103-97 issued on December 8, 1994, showed that the military medical records of 51 percent of 150 Gulf War veterans surveyed were either missing or inaccurate. Clearly, something other than mere negligence must have been at play if so many medical records were missing or inaccurate.
In 2009, Gulf War infection due to man-made mycoplasma seemed to be repeating itself. In mid-August, three Canadian soldiers were quarantined at a hospital in Quebec City, Canada, after returning from Kandahar, Afghanistan. The soldiers were infected with a drug-resistant “superbug” formally titled Acinetobacter baumannii, but dubbed by the American troops “Iraqibacter.” Fearing they too may have contracted this bug, two civilian patients who were in contact with the soldiers were also isolated. “This isn’t the first case we’ve had. We’ve received military patients returning from Afghanistan with this bacterium since 2007,” said a hospital spokesperson. In a 2007 report, Wound Care Canada wrote that incidences of this strain have increased in U.S. military hospitals. America’s CDC has issued a report stating that an increase of Acinetobacter baumannii in military hospitals treating U.S. troops serving in Iraq, Kuwait, and Afghanistan was noticed as far back as 2002.
Following the Gulf War and the misrepresentations of the government, the mycoplasma spread to the civilian population whereupon many people began suffering from debilitation and tiredness. Once it was known that the contagion was spreading into the general population, top officials with the National Institutes of Health and Centers for Disease Control as well as the Defense Department and the Department of Health and Human Resources claimed the disease was connected to the Epstein-Barr virus. They labeled it “chronic mononucleosis,” and it has now become known as chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS). Like the veterans before them, victims of this ailment initially were told it was merely a psychological condition.
Yet by 2010, the CDC had acknowledged CFS as a long-term debilitating and complex disorder characterized by profound fatigue that is not improved by bed rest and that may be worsened by physical or mental activity. The CDC estimated more than one million people in the United States are affected by the syndrome and that there are “tens of millions of people with similar fatiguing illnesses who do not fully meet the strict research definition of CFS.”
One victim, Dr. Martin Lerner of William Beaumont Hospital, told his peers in the American Society of Microbiology that the mysterious disease left his heart damaged, and that he suspected that CFS was caused by viral infection. Lerner, who founded the Treatment Center for Chronic Fatigue Syndrome in Beverly Hills, Michigan, created the Energy Index Point Score in hopes it would become a standard measurement tool to evaluate the degree of disability for CFS patients. Lerner has connected the Epstein-Barr virus, human herpes virus-6, and cytomegalovirus and similar infections to CFS. These are the very debilitating diseases studied by Donald and William Scott, who concluded that the victims of such neurodegenerative and systemic diseases “are ill with a very real physical disease deriving from a sub-viral particle developed from the brucellosis bacterial toxin.”
The idea that a man-made biological weapon may be responsible for the ill health of millions of Americans is horrifying enough. Is it possible that such a catastrophic circumstance is the result of a conscious plan by the globalists?
DEPOPULATION EFFORTS
RESEARCHERS NOW BELIEVE THAT virtually everyone in North America—and perhaps the world—carries the crystalline pathogen, although no symptoms will become apparent until the latter stages of some serious disease. Many conspiracy theorists believed in early 2009 that something within the swine flu vaccinations would trigger the pathogen.
Swine flu, officially a new strain of the H1N1 influenza virus, was first identified in the spring of 2009 following an outbreak in Mexico. Oddly, although the strain contains a combination of genes from swine, avian (bird), and human influenza viruses, it cannot be spread by eating pork or pork products, leading many suspicious persons to suspect that swine flu is of human manufacture.
Some theorists also believed that the spread of the health-destroying mycoplasma toxin fits well with the agenda of the wealthy elite who have long supported eugenics and have been looking for ways to cull the human herd of “useless eaters.” Many cite a classified study made by the U.S. National Security Council under Henry Kissinger in 1974, entitled “National Security Study Memorandum (NSSM) 200: Implications of Worldwide Population Growth for U.S. Security and Overseas Interests.” This study, also known as the Kissinger Report, stated that population growth in the so-called lesser-developed countries (LDCs) represented a serious threat to U.S. national security. The study was adopted as official policy in November 1975 by unelected president Gerald R. Ford.
In a 1981 interview concerning overpopulation, former ambassador to South Vietnam and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Maxwell Taylor, after advocating population reduction through limited wars, disease, and starvation, blithely concluded, “I have already written off more than a billion people. These people are in places in Africa, Asia, and Latin America. We can’t save them. The population crisis and the food-supply question dictate that we should not even try. It’s a waste of time.”
As if he were reading from Taylor’s script, England’s Prince Philip was quoted in People magazine as saying, “Human population growth is probably the single most serious long-term threat to survival. We’re in for a major disaster if it isn’t curbed—not just for the natural world, but for the human world. The more people there are, the more resources they’ll consume, the more pollution they’ll create, the more fighting they will do. We have no option. If it isn’t controlled voluntarily, it will be controlled involuntarily by an increase in disease, starvation and war.” Years later, Philip mused, “In the event that I am reincarnated, I would like to return as a deadly virus, in order to contribute something to solve overpopulation.”
In the early 1970s, Associate Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg may have echoed the views of Ivy League intellectuals when she said she believed the Roe v. Wade abortion decision was predicated on the Supreme Court majority’s desire to diminish “populations that we don’t want to have too many of.” She added that it was her expectation that the right to abortion created in Roe “was going to be then set up for Medicaid funding for abortion.”
; Where did Ginsburg get the idea that American policy-making elites were interested in decreasing undesirable populations? Some researchers suggested that Ginsburg, at some point, became acquainted with the writings of John Holdren or of like-minded people in the most militant branch of the population control movement. In 1977, Holdren was a young academic who helped antinatalist guru Paul Ehrlich and his wife, Anne, write Ecoscience: Population, Resources, Environment.
Holdren’s work states, “If some individuals contribute to general social deterioration by overproducing children, and if the need is compelling, they can [could] be required by law to exercise reproductive responsibility—just as they can be required to exercise responsibility in their resource-consumption patterns….” Expressing the desire for “a Planetary regime” by controlling all human economic activity and interactions with the environment, the authors suggested the “power to enforce the agreed limits” on population growth by whatever means necessary. This includes involuntary sterilization, abortion, or even mass involuntary sterilization through the infiltration of sterilizing agents into public water supplies.
Internet blogger and radio host William Norman Grigg pointed out that amid the Obama administration’s efforts to impose centralized “universal” health care, John Holdren sits as Barack Obama’s “science czar,” in which he counsels the president on the role of science in public policy. “This relationship has a certain Strangelovian undercurrent, given Holdren’s enthusiasm for eugenicist and totalitarian methods of population ‘management,’” he noted.
Prolific author G. Edward Griffin, best known for his book on the Federal Reserve, The Creature from Jekyll Island, also voiced concern over Holdren’s thoughts on martial law and depopulation. Noting Holdren’s advocacy of forced abortions and putting sterilization chemicals in the water supply, Griffin stated that Holdren discussed the possibility of reducing the population by insidious means. “He was not concerned with the ethical or freedom issues involved with these measures, only their practicality. Now we find this same man, an academic expert on population reduction, at the right hand of the President of The United States, advocating mass vaccination against the Swine Flu using vaccines that half of the medical profession believes are unsafe…. Remember, all of those who hold power in the governments of the world today are collectivists [self-styled globalists], and the guiding rule of collectivism is that individuals and minorities must be sacrificed, if necessary, for the greater good of the state or of society. Of course, those who rule will decide what the greater good is and who is to be sacrificed,” Griffin said.
This, of course, is the basic problem with population control. The idea of limiting the burgeoning Earth population is probably desirable, as the increasing number of humans as well as their waste is placing a strain on the planet. The rub comes with the question of who will decide which segments of the population must forgo childbearing for the good of the majority. So far, it is the wealthy elite—the globalists—who have taken the lead in creating ways of holding down population growth through eugenics, drugs, and birth-control measures.
Former assistant secretary of housing Catherine Austin Fitts agreed with Griffin that one of the globalists’ goals is depopulation. “Perhaps it is the goal of a swine flu epidemic as well, whether bio-warfare or hype around a flu season,” she warned. “I keep remembering my sense of urgency leaving the Bush administration in 1991. We had to do something to turn around the economy and gather real assets behind retirement plans and the social safety net. If not, Americans could find themselves deeply out on a limb. I felt my family and friends were in danger. They did not share my concern. They had a deep faith in the system. As my efforts to find ways of reengineering government investment in communities failed to win political support, Washington and Wall Street moved forward with a debt bubble and globalization that was horrifying in its implications for humanity.
“Overwhelmed by what was happening, I estimated the end result. My simple calculations guessed that we were going to achieve economic sustainability on Earth by depopulating down to a population of approximately 500 million people from our then current global population of 6 billion [by 2009, 7.7 billion]. I was…used to looking at numbers from a very high level. To me, we had to have radical change in how we governed resources or depopulate. It was a mathematical result.”
Fitts noted than some government budget analysts have concluded that the nation can no longer afford previously assumed social safety nets like Social Security and Medicare. “That is, unless you change the actuarial assumptions in the budget—like life expectancy,” she said. “Lowering immune systems and increasing toxicity levels combined with poor food, water and terrorizing stress will help do the trick. A plague can so frighten and help control people that they will accept the end of their current benefits (and the resulting implications to life expectancy) without objection. And a plague with proper planning can be highly profitable. Whatever the truth of what swine flu is or vaccines rushed into production without proper testing and peer review, it is a way to keep control in a situation that is quickly shifting out of control.”
MANUFACTURED AIDS
ADDING TO FEARS OVER conscious efforts to involuntarily reduce the human population are growing concerns that some killer plagues are man-made. To this day, many citizens still believe that acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) was created by bioengineers working in the United States after the immigration of Nazi eugenicists. It was in 1983 that AIDS was publicly recognized as a deadly and rapidly spreading disease. When the CDC called AIDS “a peculiar biological curiosity among New York City homosexuals,” suspicion grew around the world that AIDS was the product of germ warfare experiments designed to destroy undesirables. One theory was that it was developed between 1969 and 1972 in U.S. laboratories, then released in Africa by unsuspecting WHO workers in 1975 in doses of the smallpox vaccine. It was believed by some that AIDS came to the United States in 1978 in hepatitis B vaccine laced with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).
“Don’t Discount Conspiracy Theories on Origins of AIDS,” stated a headline in Kenya’s newspaper, the Daily Nation. In a December 2009 article, it was noted that thirty-three million persons worldwide and thirteen million sub-Saharan Africans have died of AIDS. Writer Angeyo Kalambuka noted, “Soon after the US State Department published the Global 2000 Report for the President in 1980 advising that the world population must be reduced by 2 billion people by the year 2000, Thomas Ferguson of the Office of Population Affairs elaborated in the Executive International Review that ‘the quickest way to reduce population is through famine, like Africa, or through disease, like in the Black Death…population reduction is now our primary policy objective’.”
The belief that AIDS was manufactured by the United States is supported by a record of hearings before a subcommittee of the House Committee on Appropriations in 1969.
In his testimony to the subcommittee in 1969, Dr. D. M. MacArthur, deputy director for research and technology at the Department of Defense, said, “Within the next five to ten years, it would probably be possible to make a new infective microorganism which could differ in certain important aspects 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 disease.” In other words, he meant a type of germ that would neutralize the normal human immunization system. MacArthur told the congressmen that tentative plans for the development of this organism had already been drawn up between the Pentagon and the National Academy of Sciences’ National Research Council and that the project would cost $10 million. Interestingly, MacArthur admitted that such a program was “highly controversial” and that there were many “who believe such research should not be undertaken lest it lead to yet another method of massive killing of large populations.”
“Mycoplasmas will forever be at the heart of the U.S. biological warfare program,” stated attorney
Boyd Graves, a graduate of the U.S. Naval Academy and director of AIDS Concerns for the Common Cause Medical Research Foundation in Ontario, Canada. Graves had produced a timeline flowchart that correlated more than twenty thousand scientific papers and fifteen years of progress reports concerning a secret federal virus development program, which he claimed proves the man-made origins of AIDS. “The 1971 flowchart makes it perfectly clear…[and] provides absolute evidence of the United States’ intent to kill its own citizens and others,” declared Graves.
Graves told one interviewer, “No one in this U.S. government has downloaded the 1971 flowchart…. There is a substantial basis in U.S. law and fact for the allegation and the conclusion that the United States intentionally made HIV/AIDS with the purpose for use as a population control weapon; a quiet and silent holocaust of people of color, toward the development of a New World Order.”
The depopulation views of Maxwell Taylor, Henry Kissinger, and others are echoes of the words from a 1996 full-page ad by Negative Population Growth, Inc. (NPG), that was published in Foreign Affairs, the official publication of the Council on Foreign Relations:
“We need a smaller population in order to halt the destruction of our environment, and to create an economy that will be sustainable [original emphasis] over the very long term. We are trying to address our steadily worsening environmental problems without coming to grips with their root cause—overpopulation. All efforts to save our environment will ultimately be futile unless we not only halt U.S. population growth, but reverse it, so that our population can eventually be stabilized at a sustainable [original emphasis] level, far lower than it is today.”
