DID SCIENCE CREATE A GENETIC GENOCIDE MACHINE?
Page 1
Suppressed History And Censored Research
Owing To Massive U.S. Government Cover-Up
AIDS
and Ebola, two of this century's most virulent diseases. Why was AIDS
originally known as "The Gay Plague" in America? Is AIDS merely a
freak accident of nature caused from an African green monkey virus? Or is AIDS
a government-sponsored genocide program that seeded a laboratory virus into
select populations for political and social purposes? Is it possible to create
pathogenic viruses by genetic engineering? Scientific arguments have been made
to support various theories of an artificial origin of AIDS, though these
arguments have been suppressed in both the mainstream press and in scientific
literature. The AIDS pandemic started as a direct result of genetic
experimentation and military madness. The most damning evidence that AIDS was
man-made comes from the Department of Defense (DOD) Appropriations Hearings for
1969 wherein Pentagon officials, namely a one Dr. MacArthur requested an
AIDS-like virus, and biowarfare labs dutifully provided a virus which would
destroy the human immune response. This genetically-engineered germ would be
very different from any previous microbe known to mankind. Interestingly, the
above Hearings on "Synthetic Biological Agents" occurred the same
year as the famous Stonewall Riot that won freedom and political clout for the
gay community! Neither the government nor the press nor the scientific
community has made any effort to bring the above facts to the attention of the
public.
Enter the heroic patriots!! There are tireless physicians
who have spent years researching and documenting the exhaustive evidence that
proves conclusively that HIV/AIDS is in fact biological (germ) warfare
experimentation. Whereas both our derelict politicians and mainstream media
continue to fail us regarding this most tremendous story of our time! The
heroic physicians introduced on this page are the true "saviors" if
you will, who alone have exposed the government's lies and devious smokescreens
contrived to conceal an event that is easily the greatest mass murder in world
history!! Those who control, manipulate, and censor the major media, are aware
of the political and social implications of the AIDS biowarfare story. The
reason for AIDS disinformation is obvious: to cover up the man-made origin of
this disease. Americans have been duped!!
In his
well known report WHO MURDERED AFRICA, Dr. William Campbell Douglass, M.D.,
wrote that HIV was finally produced (genetically engineered) in 1974, after
having been PREDICTED and REQUESTED! He tells us that the AIDS virus by the WHO
(World Health Organization), was not just a diabolical scientific exercise that
got out of hand. It was a cold-blooded successful attempt to create a killer
virus which was then used in a successful experiment in Africa. African AIDS
was the result of the smallpox eradication vaccine program conducted by the
World Health Organization during the 1970s. It was not an accident. It was
deliberate! It is more than hypothetical hyperbole to conclude that our
government has conducted biowarfare on Black Africa. It is fact.
For
decades depopulation has been the highest long-range priority of US foreign
policy towards the Third World. It was classified - it was a secret.
"Reduction of the rate of population in these States is a matter of vital
US national security." [ National Security Memorandum, Henry Kissinger ]
Viruses cannot jump species unless they are specifically engineered to do so.
It is also scientific fact that the AIDS virus bears no resemblance whatsoever
to any virus ever found in a green monkey or chimpanzee, but does bear a total
resemblance to cow virus and sheep virus, which have been bonded together to
create a hybrid virus. The only possible way these two different species of
virus could bond together would be from deliberate laboratory manipulation, and
then further engineered to make the jump into a human system. HIV is the
synthetic biological agent requested by the United States Government to
accomplish a hidden Federal program.
The National Institute of Health's Special Virus
Cancer Program (SVCP) is that said hidden
Federal program. To attempt to give a
comprehensive listing of the old and new
documented animal cancer experiments behind
the laboratory origin of HIV would fill up this
website. Disbelievers and denialists are urged
to open their minds. We are dealing here with
a worldwide covert genocidal holocaust of
unprecedented proportions.
Dr.
Robert Strecker is on record saying that science's new supergerm HIV (this
perversion of science), had been worked on being created for 30 to 40 years,
and because it was engineered at Ft. Detrick, MD, obviously his claim holds
that it was specifically designed as a weapon of mass destruction. As bizarre
as it may seem, there are connections between the U.S. Army's Fort Detrick
biowarfare lab and the National Cancer Institute, where Robert Gallo and other
leading AIDS researchers worked. (See Emerging Viruses, AIDS and Ebola, by
Leonard Horowitz.) The Army's DEPARTMENT OF BIOLOGICAL WARFARE already has a
well-documented tradition of EXPERIMENTATION ON HUMAN BEINGS. And nowhere has homophobia
been more blatant or more vicious than in the military. The question arises,
why would any homosexual want to serve in the military? Since the beginning of
recorded history there has never been a group of people so universally hated
and despised as homosexuals. And especially by the Pentagon! What happened in
1978 and beyond to cause AIDS to burst upon the scene and devastate the
homosexual segment of the American population?

AIDS in
America clearly traces back to the U.S. Federal government's infamous
enterprise of deceit, the hepatitis B experiments performed on thousands of gay
volunteers between the years 1978-1981. New York City (in 1083 gay men), San
Francisco (in 7000 gay men). The experiment began in Manhattan in November
1978, when over 1,000 homosexuals and bisexuals were injected with the
experimental vaccine. Dr. Wolf Szmuness' experimental hepatitis B vaccine was
manufactured by the National Institute of Health (NIH). Also taking part in the
study were the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) in Atlanta, the National
Institute of Alergy and Infectious Diseases, and big drug companies such as
Merck, Sharp & Dohme, and Abbott Laboratories. To be eligible for the
experiment the men had to be young, healthy, promiscuous (emphasis added),
and under the age of 40. For statistical purposes -- gays were set up -- the
government tested and interviewed the most promiscuous gays -- those signed up
in VD clinics for example, and then made the statistics fit the entire gay
community. Szmuness had no trouble rounding up gays who were willing to be
guinea pigs in a vaccine program that offered health benefits for themselves
and their community. Most of the men in the experiment were white. Three months
after the experiment began at the New York City Blood Center, the first AIDS
case was discovered in a young white Manhattan gay. Beginning in March, 1980,
similar vaccine experiments took place in Los Angeles, San Francisco, St.
Louis, Denver and Chicago. In the fall of 1980, the first West Coast case of
AIDS was reported in a young white gay man from San Francisco. To this day the
New York City Blood Center refuse to release their data on the AIDS deaths
following that experiment! The details of the experiment, and its effect on the
health of these men, are contained in the records of the trials. However, since
1984, when 64% of the men who got the vaccine already had full-blown AIDS, no
additional reports have been released (Waves Forest, "Designer
Diseases", Open Road, Fall 1988, p.3). The U.S. Department of Justice is
keeping this incriminating information "classified" and
"unavailable" for public research and investigation. The definitive
report of this study can be found in two books by Dr. Alan Cantwell, AIDS and
the DOCTORS of DEATH and QUEER BLOOD. Those American gays never realized they
were the victims of a secret biomedical plot directed against them. The more
one studies the hepatitis B experiment, the more the connections to biological
warfare and genocide become apparent. To those perceptive enough to discern it,
the mass deaths of homosexuals from AIDS was similar to the mass deaths of Jews
in the Holocaust!
Media Disinformation
With
the publication of And The Band Played On in 1987, the media became obsessed with
author Randy Shilts' "Patient Zero" story. A Canadian airline steward
named Gaeton Dugas is portrayed as the promiscuous gay man "who brought
the AIDS virus from Paris and ignited the epidemic in North America." What
Shilts probably did not know is that when Dugas was diagnosed with AIDS in
1980, over twenty percent of the Manhattan gays in the hepatitis B experiment
were HIV positive. This twenty percent infection rate was discovered
after the HIV blood test became available in 1985, and after the mens' stored
blood at the New York Blood Center was retested for HIV antibodies (JAMA,
Vol. 255, pp. 2167-2172, 1986). Remarkably, these gay men had the highest
recorded incidence of HIV anywhere in the world for that time! Even in African
populations, where AIDS had been theorized to exist for millennia, there were
never reports of such a high incidence of HIV in 1980. The media continue to
promote ludicrous propaganda about the origin of AIDS, always avoiding
discussion of the idea that HIV came out of a laboratory, and always pointing
the finger to Africa.

Nothing
less than a Congressional hearing and investigation that may lead to a full
world conference in the United Nations is needed to clarify and defuse the
alleged mentally deranged plan of world depopulation through genetically
engineered bio-weapons and prevent world panic! Now if silence is complicity,
then the American mainstream press IS libel for it's continuing, ongoing
silence in the face of this diabolic world genocide encompassing the decimation
of third world countries for purposes of population control. The CIA's want and
need for an offensive biological agent to stem the African birth rate is a
matter of record documented over 50 years ago. The American people have the
right to know and deserve a dialogue on this global genocide of Nuremburg
gravity! The massive government cover up and disinformation campaign is
expected to escalate (witness the proliferation of certain conspicuous books).
Dr. Leonard Horowitz is building a grass roots activist movement to finally
expose this great crime against humanity, and to hopefully prevent future
bio-attacks against gays and other targeted groups with
"ethno-specific" viruses. The Genome Project makes this technology a
very plausible reality for concern. During the late 1950's, the 60's, the 70's,
and the early 80's, scientists and policy makers in the U.S. believed there was
a population explosion of peoples who they considered inferior and or
undesirable. This is historically the very essence of the intolerant and
genocidal mindset. The political consequences for humanity can be disastrous if
the new genetic technology is used for evil purposes. The cancer virologists
and the genetic engineers are the new masters of life and death on the planet.

AIDS Conference at Montreal, Canada), and the Benjamin Franklin Award winning
sequel, QUEER BLOOD:The Secret AIDS Genocide Plot. 1-800-431-1579. Dr.
Cantwell is also author of the revolutionary THE CANCER MICROBE. It is a
continuing tragedy that microbiologists, pathologists, oncologists,
dermatologists, and other physicians and researchers are not willing to
investigate the microbe of cancer. Knowledge of this cancer germ has been
suppressed by a greedy and arrogant scientific establishment that does not
really want to find a cause and a cure for cancer because it is more lucrative
to continue the "search." Until this infectious agent is recognized,
it is doubtful that medical science will ever achieve an effective treatment
for AIDS and cancer.

Are species-jumping animal virus experiments
responsible for the HIV Holocaust?
2001 by Alan Cantwell, Jr., M.D.
In the fall of 1986 the Soviets shocked the world by claiming that HIV was secretly developed at Fort Detrick, the U.S. Army's biological warfare unit. Although the claim was dismissed as "infectious propaganda", Russian scientists had worked hand in hand with biological warfare scientists in the transfer of viruses and virus-infected tissue into various non-human primates (monkeys, apes, chimps) during the 1970s before AIDS appeared. With improved international relationships, the Russian accusation vanished.
Although evidence supporting the man-made theory has never been mentioned in the major U.S. media, the theory continues to be ridiculed. For example, in the San Francisco Chronicle,( "Quest for the Origin of AIDS", January 14, 2001), William Carlsen writes: "In the early years of the AIDS epidemic, theories attempting to explain the origin of the disease ranged from the comic to the bizarre: a deadly germ escaped from a secret CIA laboratory; God sent the plague down to punish homosexuals and drug addicts; it came from outer space, riding on the tail of a comet."
AIDS certainly did not come from the hand of God or outer space. However, there is ample evidence to suspect the hand of man in the outbreak of AIDS that first began in the late 1970s in New York City.
Creating AIDS in animals before the epidemic
Lost in the history of AIDS is evidence pointing to HIV as a virus whose origin traces back to animal cancer retrovirus experimentation in the "pre-AIDS" years of the 1960s and 70s. Evidence linking the introduction of HIV into gays and blacks via vaccine experiments and programs in the late 1970s has been totally ignored in favor of the politically correct theory claiming that HIV originated in chimpanzees in the African rain forest, and that HIV "jumped species" into the African population around 1930 or even earlier.
Conveniently overlooked is the series of outbreaks of AIDS-like epidemics that broke out in U.S. primate centers, beginning in 1969. A decade before AIDS, the first of five recorded epidemics of "simian AIDS" erupted in a colony of stump-tailed macaques housed in a primate lab at Davis, California. Most of the macaques died. Two types of primate immunodeficiency viruses were eventually discovered as the cause. A few silently infected monkeys transferred to the primate colony at Yerkes in Atlanta subsequently died of simian AIDS in the late 1980s. Veterinarians claim the origin of the simian AIDS outbreak is unknown. However, one obvious possibility is the experimental transfer of viruses between various primate species, which is common practice in animal laboratories.
In 1974 veterinarians actually created an AIDS-like disease when newborn chimps were removed from their mothers and weaned exclusively on virus-infected milk from cows infected with "bovine C-type virus." Within a year the chimps died of leukemia and pneumocystis pneumonia (the "gay pneumonia" of AIDS). Both diseases had never been observed in chimps before this virus-transfer experiment.
Also downplayed is the laboratory creation of feline leukemia and "cat AIDS" by the transfer of HIV-like cat retroviruses in the mid-1970s. These experiments were conducted at Harvard by Myron (Max) Essex, later to become a famous AIDS researcher. All this man-made creation of AIDS in laboratory animals directly preceded the "mysterious" 1979 introduction of HIV into gay men, the most hated minority in America.
Nowadays, scientists hunt for "ancestor" viruses of HIV in chimps in the African wild and ignore all the immunosuppressive viruses that were created in virus laboratories shortly before AIDS. No consideration is given to any of these lab viruses as possible man-made ancestors of the many "strains" of HIV (and HIV-2) that jumped species to produce AIDS in humans.
The gay experiments that preceded AIDS (1978-1981)
Scientists also discount any connection between the official outbreak of AIDS in 1981 and the experimental hepatitis B vaccine program (1978-1981) at the New York Blood Center in Manhattan that used gays as guinea pigs shortly before the epidemic. Curiously, the exact origin of AIDS in the United States remains unstudied. Health authorities simply blame promiscuous gay men, but never adequately explain how a black heterosexual African disease could have transformed itself exclusively into a white young gay male disease in Manhattan.
Researchers claim HIV incubated in Africa for more that a half century until AIDS broke out there in 1982. However, in the U.S. there was no incubation period for gay men. As soon as homosexuals signed up as guinea pigs for government-sponsored hepatitis B vaccine experiments, they began to die with a strange virus of unknown origin. The hepatitis B experiments began in Manhattan in the fall of 1978; the first few cases of AIDS (all young gays from Manhattan) were reported to the CDC in 1979.
Scientists have also failed to explain how a brand new herpes virus was also introduced exclusively into gays, along with HIV, in the late 1970s. This herpes virus is now believed to be the cause of Kaposi's sarcoma, the so-called "gay cancer" of AIDS. Before AIDS, Kaposi's sarcoma was never seen in healthy young men. Identified a decade after HIV, in 1994, this KS virus is closely related to a primate cancer-causing herpes virus extensively studied and transferred in animal laboratories in the decade before AIDS.
Also downplayed to the public is a new microbe (Mycoplasma penetrans), also of unknown origin, that was introduced into homosexuals, along with HIV and the new herpes virus. Thus, not one but three new infectious agents were inexplicably transferred into the gay population at the start of the epidemic (HIV, the herpes KS virus, and M.penetrans).
In his book, Virus [2000], Luc Montagnier (the French virologist who co-discovered HIV) blames promiscuous American gay tourists for bringing this new mycoplasma to Africa, and for bringing back HIV. He provides no evidence for this homophobic theory. Nor does he mention the various mycoplasmas that were passed around in the 1970s in scientific labs, and the fact that these microbes were frequent contaminants in virus cultures and vaccines.
Why are all these simultaneous introductions of new infectious agents into gay men ignored by scientists? Surely a credible explanation would be important in determining the origin of HIV and AIDS.
Why are scientists so opposed to the man-made theory? And why do they believe so passionately in the chimp theory? One explanation might be that scientists don't want the public to know what happened to the tens of thousands of imported primates who were held captive in laboratories throughout the world in the decade before AIDS.
The forgotten Special Virus Cancer Program (1964-1977)
Rarely mentioned by AIDS scientists and media reporters is the fact that surgeons have been transplanting chimpanzee parts (and chimp viruses) into people for decades. When Keith Reemtsma died in June 2000, at age 74, he was hailed as a pioneer in cross-species organ transplants (now known as xenotransplantation). By 1964 he had already placed six chimpanzee kidneys into six patients. All his patients died, but eventually Reemtsma succeeded in many successful human-to-human organ transplants.
Much more likely to have spread primate (chimp and monkey) viruses to human beings is the largely forgotten Special Virus Cancer Program (SVCP). This research program was responsible for the development, the production, the seeding, and the deployment of various animal cancer and immunosuppressive AIDS-like viruses and retroviruses. These laboratory created viruses were capable of inducing disease when transferred between animal species and also when transplanted into human cells and tissue.
The SVCP began in 1964 as a government-funded program of the National Cancer Institute (NCI) in Bethesda, Maryland. Originally designed to study leukemia, the program was soon enlarged to study all forms of cancer. The scope of the program was international and included scientists from Japan, Sweden, Italy, the Netherlands, Israel, and Africa. The mission of the SVCP was to collect various human and animal cancers from around the world and to grow large amounts of cancer-causing viruses. As a result, thousands of liters of dangerous man-made viruses were adapted to human cells and shipped around the world to various laboratories. The annual reports of the SVCP contain proof that species jumping of animal viruses was a common occurrence in labs a decade before AIDS.
The SVCP gathered together the nation’s top virologists, biochemists, immunologists, molecular biologists, and epidemiologists, to determine the role of viruses and retroviruses in the production of human cancer. Many of the most prestigious medical institutions were involved in this program. Connected with the SVCP were the most famous future American AIDS scientists, such as Robert Gallo (the co-discoverer of HIV), Max Essex of "cat AIDS" fame, and Peter Duesberg, who claims HIV does not cause AIDS. Gallo and Essex were also the first to promote the widely accepted African green monkey theory of AIDS. This theory was proven erroneous as far back as 1988, but was heavily circulated among AIDS educators and the media until the theory was superceded by the chimp theory in the late 1990s.
Biowarfare research, primate research and the SVCP
Also joining forces with the SVCP at the NCI were the military’s biological warfare researchers. On October 18, 1971, President Richard Nixon announced that the army’s biowarfare laboratories at nearby Fort Detrick, Maryland, would be converted to cancer research. As part of Nixon’s so-called War on Cancer, the military biowarfare unit was retitled the new Frederick Cancer Research Center, and Litton Bionetics was named as the military’s prime contractor for this project.
According to the 1971 SVPC annual report, the primary task of the now jointly connected National Cancer Institute-Frederick Cancer Research Center was "the large scale production of oncogenic (cancer-causing) and suspected oncogenic viruses to meet research needs on a continuing basis." Special attention was given to primate viruses (the alleged African source of HIV) and "the successful propagation of significant amounts of human candidate viruses." Candidate viruses were animal or human viruses that might cause human cancers.
For these experiments a steady supply of research animals (monkeys, chimpanzees, mice, and cats) was necessary; and multiple breeding colonies were established for the SVCP. Primates were shipped in from West Africa and Asia for experimentation; and virus-infected animals were shipped out to various labs worldwide.
By 1971, a total of 2,274 primates had been inoculated at Bionetics Research Laboratories, under contract to Fort Detrick. Over 1000 of these monkeys had already died or had been transferred to other primate centers. (Some animals were eventually released back into the wild). By the early 1970s, experimenters had transferred cancer-causing viruses into several species of monkeys, and had also isolated a monkey virus (Herpesvirus saimiri) that would have a close genetic relationship to the new Kaposi’s sarcoma herpes virus that produced the "gay cancer" of AIDS in 1979.
In order to induce primates and other research animals to acquire cancer, their immune system was deliberately suppressed by drugs, radiation, or cancer-causing chemicals or substances. The thymus gland and/or the spleen were removed, and viruses were injected into newborn animals or into the womb of pregnant animals. Some animals were injected with malaria to keep them chronically sick and immunodepressed.
The U.S. is the world's leading consumer of primates, and 55,000 are used yearly in medical research. Primates (especially newborn and baby chimpanzees) are the most favored lab animals because they are similar biochemically and immunologically to human beings. Humans share 98.4% of their DNA with chimpanzees. Chimps were extensively used by SVCP because there would be no official testing of "candidate" lab viruses on humans.
In the decade before AIDS, Gallo was a project officer of a primate study contracted by Bionetics that pumped cancerous human tissue, as well as a variety of chicken and monkey viruses, into newborn macaques (a small species of monkey that carries a close relative of the KS virus). Recorded in the 1971 SVCP report (NIH-71-2025), Gallo's project notes state: "Inasmuch as tests for the biological activity of candidate human viruses will not be tested in the human species, it is imperative that another system be developed for these determinations, and subsequently for the evaluation of vaccines or other measures of control. The close phylogenetic relationship of the lower primates to man justifies utilization of these animals for these purposes."
Researchers at Bionetics injected human and animal cancer material into various species of monkeys to determine the cancer effect. Newborn and irradiated monkeys were injected with blood ("using multiple sites and volumes as large as possible") taken from various forms of human leukemia. In other studies, tissue cultures infected with various animal viruses were inoculated into primates. How many "new" and "emerging" viruses were created and adapted to human tissue and to various primates is not known. Some primates were released back into the wild carrying lab viruses with them. The possible spread of these lab viruses to other animals in the wild has been ignored by scientists searching for the origin of HIV and its close relatives in African animals.
Cats were also bred for leukemia and sarcoma cancer studies. Germ free colonies of inbred mice were established. Mouse cancer viruses were manipulated to produce resistant and non-resistant strains. These adapted viruses would be employed in the 1980s in human gene replacement experiments. Such experiments utilized a weakened strain of the mouse leukemia virus to infect and "taxi-in" the missing genes to genetically-defective human beings.
The end of the SVCP and the birth of AIDS
By 1977 the SVCP came to an inglorious end. According to Gallo, "Scientifically, the problem was that no one could supply clear evidence of any kind of human tumor virus, not even a DNA virus, and most researchers refused to concede that viruses played any role in human cancers. Politically, the Virus Cancer Program was vulnerable because it attracted a great deal of money and attention and had failed to produce dramatic, visible results."
Despite all this, the SVCP was the birthplace of genetic engineering, molecular biology, and the human genome project. More than any other program it built up the field of animal retrovirology, which led to the vital understanding of cancer and immunosuppressive retroviruses in humans. As the SVCP was winding down, thousands of gay men were signing up as guinea pigs in government-sponsored hepatitis B vaccine experiments in New York, Los Angeles, and San Francisco. These same cities would soon become the three primary epicenters for the new "gay-related immune deficiency syndrome," later known as AIDS.
Two years after the termination of the SCVP, the introduction of HIV into gay men (along with a herpes virus and a mycoplasma) miraculously revived retroviral research and made Gallo the most famous scientist in the world. Could virus-contaminated hepatitis vaccines lie at the root of AIDS? In the early 1970s the hepatitis B vaccine was developed in chimpanzees. To this day, some people are fearful about taking the hepatitis B vaccine because of its original connection to gay men and AIDS. Was HIV (and the KS herpes virus and a new mycoplasma) introduced into gays during these vaccine trials when thousands of homosexuals were injected in Manhattan beginning in 1978, and in the West Coast cities in 1980-1981?
As mentioned, the first gay AIDS cases erupted in Manhattan a few months after the gay experiment began at the NY Blood Center. When a blood test for HIV became available in the mid-1980s, the Center's stored gay blood specimens were reexamined. Most astonishing is the statistically significant fact that 20% of the gay men who volunteered for the hepatitis B experiment in New York were discovered to be HIV-positive in 1980 (a year before the AIDS epidemic became "official" in 1981). This signifies that Manhattan gays in 1980 had the highest incidence of HIV anywhere in the world, including Africa, the supposed birthplace of HIV and AIDS. And epidemic cases in Africa did not appear until 1982.
Although denied by the AIDS establishment, a few researchers are convinced that these vaccine experiments served as the vehicle through which HIV was introduced into the gay population. My own extensive research into the hepatitis B experiments is presented in AIDS and the Doctors of Death: An Inquiry into the Origin of the AIDS Epidemic [1988], and in Queer Blood: The Secret AIDS Genocide Plot [1993]. These books also debunk the preposterous "Patient Zero" story of 1987, which claimed a promiscuous gay Canadian airline steward brought AIDS to America. The highly implausible story was sensationalized in the media and served to further obscure the origin of AIDS in America and blame gay promiscuity. Even Montagnier is doubtful that the U.S. epidemic could have developed from a single patient. Never mentioned by proponents of the chimp theory is the fact that the New York Blood Center established a chimp virus laboratory in West Africa in 1974. One of the purposes of VILAB II, at the Liberian Institute for Biomedical Research in Robertsfield, Liberia, was to develop the hepatitis B vaccine in chimps. A few years later this vaccine was inoculated into gays at the Center.
Chimps were captured from various parts of West Africa and brought to VILAB. Alfred Prince, Head of virology at the NY Blood Center, has been the director of Vilab for the past 25 years. The lab prides itself by releasing "reha bilitated" chimps back into the wild.
Also closely allied with "pre-AIDS" development of a hepatitis B vaccine is the little publicized primate colony outside New York City called LEMSIP (the Laboratory for Experimental Medicine and Surgery). Until disbanded in 1997, LEMSIP supplied New York area scientists with primates and primate parts for transplantation and virus research.
Founded in 1965, LEMSIP was affiliated with the New York University Medical Center, where the first cases of AIDS-associated Kaposi's sarcoma were discovered in 1979. Researchers at NYU Medical Center were also heavily involved in the development of the experimental hepatitis B vaccine used in gays; and the Medical Center received government grants and contracts connected with biological warfare research beginning in 1969, according to Leonard Horowitz, author of Emerging Viruses: AIDS and Ebola [1996].
Scientific disinformation and the 1959 HIV-positive blood test from Africa
By predating HIV back to the 1930s, the chimp theory effectively discredits the man-made theory of AIDS, which dates the introduction of HIV to the late 1970s. Only time will tell whether the chimp theory will hold up to further scientific scrutiny.
Conspiracy theorists believe some wildly popular AIDS origin stories in the press reek of scientific disinformation. One example is the Patient Zero story. Another is the media blitz surrounding the English sailor who supposedly contracted AIDS in 1959. This now-disproven story made worldwide headlines in 1990 and obviously served to contradict the underground conspiracy theory (particularly among African-Americans) that AIDS was man-made.
The New York Times (July 24, 1990) declared: "The case also refutes the widely publicized charges made by Soviet officials several years ago that AIDS arose from a virus that had escaped from a laboratory experiment that went awry or was a biological warfare agent. The human retrovirus group to which the AIDS virus belongs was unknown at the time. Nor did scientists then have the genetic engineering techniques needed to create a virus." Several years later, the case was discovered to be not a case of AIDS because the sailor's tissue remains were accidentally (or deliberately) contaminated with HIV.
In 1998 the media alerted the public to further evidence that AIDS started in Africa. The proof consisted of an old 1959 stored frozen blood specimen discovered to be HIV-positive. Researchers claimed the tiny amount of serum contained fragments of HIV "closely related" to a virus found in 3 chimpanzees in the African wild and in the frozen remains of a chimp named Marilyn, discovered in a freezer at Fort Detrick.
The 1959 specimen was obtained from a Bantu man living in Kinshasa, the Congo. His name and health status were not recorded. Details of the history and testing of this specimen (later heralded as the "world's oldest HIV-positive blood sample") are recorded in The River: A Journey to the Source of HIV and AIDS [1999], by journalist Edward Hooper who theorizes that HIV was introduced into Africans via the polio vaccine programs in the late 1950s. Hooper claims the polio vaccine was prepared using chimp kidney cells contaminated with the ancestor virus of HIV.
When tested for HIV in the mid-1980s, the 1959 blood sample was the only specimen out of 700 stored frozen Congo bloods that tested positive for HIV. Originally collected by Arno Motulsky on a Rockefeller grant, the African sample was one of many sent to the University of Washington in Seattle and used for genetic testing and included in a report, "Population Genetic Studies," published in 1966. Around 1970, the remaining 672 frozen bloods were flown to Emory University in Atlanta for further genetic tests.
In 1985 the specimens again changed hands, this time for HIV testing by Andre Nahmias, a virologist and animal researcher associated with the Yerkes Primate Center at Emory. The Congo specimens were tested along with 500 other blood specimens taken from blacks living in sub-Saharan Africa between the years 1959 and 1982. Initially over 90% of specimens taken in 1959 tested positive for HIV by the ELISA test. However, these HIV-positive tests were later determined to be false-positive. After the examinations at Emory, the specimens were shipped to Harvard University in Cambridge, Massachusetts, for HIV testing in Max Essex' lab.
Three specimens initially tested HIV-positive, but finally only the 1959 specimen from the unidentified Bantu man was confirmed HIV- positive. Around the time of these examinations, Essex's lab was unknowingly contaminated with primate viruses.
In 1986, Essex discovered a new "human" AIDS virus that later proved to be a contaminating monkey virus. The source of the primate virus traced back to a captive monkey at a primate center in nearby Southborough, Massachusetts. This primate contamination at his lab resulted in the erroneous green monkey theory, heavily popularized by Gallo and the media.
Also unpublicized is the little known fact that Gallo's lab at the National Cancer Institute was plagued with contamination by primate viruses. In 1975 he reported a new human "HL-23" virus that eventually proved to be three contaminating ape primate viruses (gibbon-ape virus, simian sarcoma virus, and baboon endogenous virus). Gallo claims he has no idea how these viruses contaminated his research.
In 1996 Hooper convinced Nahmias to turn over the remaining 1959 specimen to David Ho of Rockefeller University in Manhattan for PCR testing. In 1996 Ho was named Time magazine's "Man of the Year", at a time when few people had ever heard of him. Ho is also the director of the Aaron Diamond AIDS Research Center, affiliated with Rockefeller University since 1996. The Diamond Center is also now connected with the New York Blood Center, home of the gay vaccine experiments that gave birth to AIDS.
Ho determined the tiny amount of the remaining specimen did not contain live virus, nor was the complete virion of the virus present. Instead, some fragments of the virus (about 15% of the total genome) were tested and presented to the scientific world as the oldest specimen of HIV in the world. Ho's PCR results cannot be confirmed by independent investigators because the 1959 specimen is now totally used up.
When published in the journal Nature on February 5, 1998 ("An African HIV-1 sequence from 1959 and implications for the origin of the epidemic"), Hooper's name appeared on the report, along with Ho, Bette Korber, Nahmias, and others, The report was heavily publicized as proof that HIV existed in the African population in 1959.
Although there are no HIV-positive tissue specimens from Africa from the 1960s and 1970s, and no proven cases of AIDS either, Hooper relies heavily on this 1959 test to support his theory that HIV entered the African population via the polio vaccines programs in the late 1950s.
In The River Hooper quickly dismisses the claims of physician Robert Strecker, the first whistle-blower of man-made AIDS, as well as the research in Horowitz's Emerging Viruses, and in my own books, AIDS & The Doctors of Death, and Queer Blood.
In condemning AIDS biowarfare research, Hooper declares, "Sadly, supporters of the Streckers have continued to peddle their ill-informed and outdated versions of the myth, blaming variously the Soviets, the CIA, the Germans, and the World Health Organization (WHO) well into the nineties." He dismisses the hepatitis B vaccine connection to AIDS by noting that only two of the 826 gay vaccinees had developed AIDS by 1983. Hooper ignores the fact that by 1981 over 20% of the men in the trials were HIV-positive and that by 1982, over 30% of the men were HIV-positive. He dismisses the World Health Organization's African smallpox vaccine connection by saying, "there is no reason for either HIV or SIV [simian immunodeficiency virus] to be accidentally present in the vaccine." Hooper fails to consider the possibility that the vaccines could have been deliberately contaminated with HIV. Hooper has been a United Nations official, but no details of this are included in his book .
Despite his massive research, Hooper seems naïve about the continuing transfer of viruses between various primate species at primate centers. For example, in 1995 he interviewed Preston Marx at LEMSIP. At that time Marx was a representative of David Ho's organization, the Aaron Diamond Research Center. Hooper writes: "I was shocked by the cavalier way in which tissues and sera from one species had been introduced into other species, long after the risks of cross-species transfer had been highlighted by the SV40 [polio vaccine] debacle, and I was astonished that survivors from troops that had been stricken by mystery illnesses could have been casually sold to other centers, for use in experiments there. Furthermore, this apparent lack of monitoring and central control seemed to be echoed in other fields, like xenotransplantation (the transplanting of organ or cells from one species to another) — and here, of course, the implications were even more frightening."
By predating his polio vaccine theory back to the late 1950s, Hooper greatly simplified his theory of AIDS origin. He ignored all those animal viruses that were placed into human tissue in the 60s and 70s, and all those dangerous viral creations that were genetically altered for cancer research, vaccine research, and secret biological warfare.
The chimp in the freezer at Fort Detrick
On February 1, 1999 Lawrence K Altman, longtime physician-writer for The New York Times, dutifully reported "the riddle of the origin of the AIDS virus has apparently been solved." A team of researchers, headed by Beatrice Hahn at the University of Alabama, performed viral studies on three chimps in the African wild and had also studied the frozen remains of a chimp, discovered by accident in a freezer at Fort Detrick. The chimp had tested positive for HIV in 1985. On the basis of all this research, Hahn declared that a common subspecies of chimp (Pan troglodytes troglodytes) was the animal source of the virus "most closely " related to HIV.
In a media blitz U.S. government scientists presented a phylogenetic ancestral "family tree" of primate viruses (which few people could understand) to prove that HIV was genetically descended from a chimp virus in the African bush. Molecular analysis of virus genetic data, performed by Bette Korber and the supercomputer Nirvana at the Los Alamos National Labor atory in New Mexico, indicated that HIV had jumped species from a chimp to a human in Africa around the year 1930. (Los Alamos is the official home of nuclear bomb-building, alleged Chinese spies, and the laboratory which directed secret human radiation experiments on unsuspecting civilians from the 1940s up to the beginning of the AIDS epidemic.)
Beatrice Hahn theorized that the epidemic started when a hunter cut himself while butchering chimp meat and subsequently became infected. Scientists readily accepted Hahn's notion that the AIDS virus and its closest relatives jumped species from chimps to humans on multiple occasions, thereby explaining the origin of the three separate subtypes of HIV-1 (M, N, and O), as well as HIV-2.
Chimps in West Africa are hunted for food, as well as for medical experimentation. Young chimps are especially prized for scientific research and are usually caught by shooting their mothers. Many die from stress and inhumane conditions during capture and transport to laboratories and zoos in Western nations.
Due to all this killing, chimps are now an endangered species. During the past century the African chimp population has dropped from two million to less than 150,000. Despite the mass killing of chimps, they are still blamed for causing the worldwide epidemic of AIDS.
Beatrice Hahn is no stranger to primate theories, having worked in Gallo's lab when he was heavily promoting the green monkey theory in the mid-1980s and the "close relationship" of the monkey virus to HIV. Now Hahn's virus was claimed to be a closer relative than the contaminating monkey virus in Essex' lab that formed the basis of the false green monkey theory.
Media journalists paid no attention to these discrepancies. Hahn's new chimp findings, along with the old 1959 blood specimen, fully convinced the AIDS establishment, and an adoring media, that Africa was indeed the source of HIV and the AIDS epidemic.
The 2000 London Origin of AIDS Conference
When Hooper's book appeared in the fall of 1998, molecular scientists quickly used the new chimp virus data to completely discredit Hooper's polio vaccine theory. AIDS in Africa could not be caused by a virus jumping species in the 50s if it had already jumped species back in the 1930s. Researchers refused to believe scientists could have played any role in the origin of HIV and AIDS.
Hooper bypassed the biowarfare theory by predating HIV back to the 50s. Now scientists bypassed Hooper by dating HIV back several decades earlier. The fact that there was no African epidemic until the early 1980s did not seem pertinent. To make their view official, a small group of scientists proposed an "invitation only" meeting to settle the origin matter once and for all. In October 2000 the Royal Society of London held a two-day conference on the origins of HIV. Obviously, the biowarfare theory of AIDS was not discussed. On the contrary, one professor emphatically declared "all human infectious diseases have an animal origin." Although there never was a disease like AIDS (until scientists started to flagrantly pass viruses around to repeatedly break the species barrier ), the same professor declared that "natural transfer of these infections is a common event in animal populations." Using the viral fragments from the 1959 specimen and comparing them with the select viruses contained in the data bank at Los Alamos , Betty Korber refined her computer calculations to establish a likely date of 1940, "with confidence levels extending from 1871 to 1955." The Rega Institute in Antwerp estimated the transfer could have occurred between 1590 and 1760, with 1675 the most likely date.
Hooper spoke but his views were largely ignored by the molecular biologists. Preston Marx warned about more human diseases caused by viruses emerging from primates, None of the speakers mentioned what happened to the thousands of liters of animal viruses that were passed around the world by the Special Virus Cancer Program in the decade before AIDS.
Instead, the London conferees alerted the public to a new view of medical science, championed by the virologists. The "Last Word" at the conference was that "all human viral infections were initially zoonotic (animal) in origin. Animals will always provide a reservoir for viruses that could threaten human populations in the future." And the scientists predicted: "There is still a myriad of current unknown viruses in animal populations on land, sea, and air with the potential to cause human disease." Apparently, none of these viruses were in animal laboratories.
AIDS, cancer, genetic science and covert human medical experimentation
Although rejected completely by most scientists, the man-made theory of AIDS is a rational explanation for the origin of HIV. This theory is partly based on an awareness of the gene-polluting activities and species jumping virus experiments of irresponsible scientists during the two decades before the epidemic.
In addition, the record clearly shows that scientists and biowarfare scientists experiment secretly on unsuspecting people. Horrific aspects of the Cold War Human Radiation Experiments attest to the fact that covert medical experimentation is not an "X-Files" fantasy or a totally paranoid belief.
It is easy to understand why researchers might want to obscure the man-made origin for AIDS and blame primates. It is now apparent that most of the major researchers promoting the African primate origin of AIDS were connected with the largely secret Special Virus Cancer Program, or are scientists involved in the transfer of viruses in animal research, particularly primate research. From the very beginning of the epidemic, researchers disclaimed any connection between AIDS and cancer, as well as any connection between HIV and animal retrovirus cancer research. In 1984, Gallo originally named HIV a cancer-causing "leukemia/lymphoma" virus. To obscure the cancer connection, the name was immediately changed to "lymphotropic" virus.
My own Kaposi's sarcoma research, first published in medical journals in 1981, showed "cancer-associated bacteria" as possible infectious agents in "classic" KS tumors. Before HIV was discovered in 1984, additional papers in 1982 and 1983 showed similar cancer bacteria in the enlarged lymph nodes and KS tumors of gay men with "gay cancer" and AIDS. Since the 1950s, cancer-associated bacteria have been linked to viruses, as well as to mycoplasmas. This aspect of cancer research has been suppressed for decades by the cancer establishment. A history of this research and its relevancy to AIDS is the subject of my books, AIDS: The Mystery and the Solution [1984] and The Cancer Microbe: The Hidden Killer in Cancer, AIDS and Other Immune Diseases [1990].
Gallo, in his 1991 book, falsely claims that no infectious agent had ever been found in KS. The refusal of AIDS scientists to recognize cancer microbe research, published in peer reviewed scientific journals, is a further indication that the AIDS establishment seeks to control all aspects of HIV research in such a way as to never connect the origin of AIDS with previous cancer research and covert biological warfare research. This cover-up conceals the possibility that AIDS, in reality, is a new man-made form of infectious and contagious cancer.
Could a small coterie of government scientists concoct a bogus (but scientifically plausible) primate theory of AIDS origin and bamboozle the public to believe it in order to cover-up the truth?
In the 1930s the highly respected German scientific community was entirely transformed by fascist beliefs proclaiming the genetic inferiority of the Jews and the genetic superiority of the German Master Race. This Nazi takeover of science and the media eventually led to the murder of millions in the Holocaust. Could the genetic science surrounding the origin of AIDS obscure a genocidal and world depopulation program of man-made origin?
It is time for the man-made theory of HIV to be examined fairly. Proponents of this theory should not be dismissed as paranoid conspiracy theorists; and AIDS educators should educate themselves about this hidden history of AIDS and its implications for the origin of HIV. How many more species jumping viruses will we have to endure before we question the integrity and the agenda of scientists who still blissfully jump viruses between species in animal laboratories?
Lawrence K. Altman, the Times reporter who in 1999 wrote that the origin of the AIDS virus was solved, recently asked "Where did AIDS come from?" Now seemingly undecided, Altman answers, "We can only guess. Determining the answer would be important because discovering how AIDS came to be an epidemic might prevent a similar catastrophe in the future." ("The AIDS questions that linger," January 30, 2001).
It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out how researchers could have created HIV and how they could have transferred the virus to gay and blacks in a covert medical experimentation for genocidal or population control purposes.
The secrecy and scientific disinformation surrounding the Human Radiation Experiments of the Cold War era has taught us how easily government scientists can fool the public on scientific matters. And when it comes to scientific monkey business, researchers know that most people are chumps.

Dr.
Horowitz's brilliantly researched book, EMERGING VIRUSES: AIDS & Ebola; Nature,
Accident or Intentional? (1996) Available also from Aries Rising Press. According
to Dr. Horowitz, one of the prime players was Henry Kissinger, former Secretary
of State, who in 1969 allocated $10 million of Congressional funding for the
development of AIDS-like viruses by the U.S. military. Kissinger also allegedly
instructed the CIA to stockpile a Pandora's box of deadly viruses for a secret
germ warfare project code-named MKNAOMI. MK- NAOMI is the code for the development
of AIDS. The "NAOMI" portion stands for the racist "Negroes Are Only Momentary
Individuals." Kissinger and a few MKNAOMI scientists controlled the fate of
AIDS-like viruses engineered for the Army for use in CIA-directed operations.
EMERGING VIRUSES delivers a particularly devastating indictment against AIDS
researcher Robert Gallo. Horowitz reveals the early Nazi roots of biological
warfare research. EMERGING VIRUSES concludes that the people society blames
for starting the AIDS pandemic -- American gay men and Africans -- are innocent
victims, while those who created AIDS continue to profit by developing expensive
new drugs to treat it. Pharmaceutical industrialists create the problems and
then manufacture the solutions. EMERGING VIRUSES is an explosive book exposing
the madness of modern medicine and a powerhouse of evidence to show why AIDS
is a man-made disease. "Perhaps now, as AIDS consumes the lives, liberties,
and pursuits of an estimated 100 million HIV-positive people worldwide, the
time has come to vanquish our delusions about it and its origin." "

The
"old" cases of the Manchester, England case of the 1950s -- and the
very young black boy from St. Louis case of AIDS in 1969 -- have both been
DISPROVEN as old AIDS cases, (See Hooper's The River, 1999), a book which
debunks these cases. Until the majority of people wake up that AIDS is a
man-made disease and force the issue in the press, this subject will remain
TABOO in the media, except to pass it off as "conspiracy theory" and
"paranoia."
Caveat:
The Hooper group is fixated on ONLY one thing, -- and that is the possibly contaminated
polio vaccines of the 1950s. They curiously ignore all other vaccine programs,
as well as additional sources of possible viral contamination during vaccine
manufacture. Although Hooper's writings point to a man-made origin of AIDS,
they certainly are not the last word on the matter; and his conclusions still
remain a theory best evaluated by comparing them with the views of other researchers
who believe that HIV was deliberately introduced to American gays and African
blacks by hepatitis B and smallpox vaccine programs in the 1970s, and not solely
via the polio vaccine route. And we suggest to interested readers not to believe
everything in the newspapers, CNN, and in medical journals. Blaming primates
and human sexuality for the intoduction and spread of AIDS makes as much sense
as blaming Jews for the Holocaust. And yet almost all the "intellectuals" believe
in the monkey-chimp "out of Africa" origin of AIDS. The EVIDENCE for bonified
AIDS cases in the U.S. and Africa prior to the eruption of AIDS in the late
1970s is WEAK. However, the AIDS "experts" have used this weak evidence to totally
discredit all the irrefutable evidence pointing to HIV as being intoduced in
the 1970s. Ask yourselves why???
AIDS:
An Explosion of the Biological Timebomb? is a 117,000 word, 16 chapter, 1600+
hyperlinked footnoted work examining historic leukemia, sarcoma, and immunodeficiency
research over the last 60 years. Incremental developments in these sciences
reveals likely origin, certainly intentional creation of HIV. *************************************** FOR THOSE WHO DOUBT OUR GOVERNMENT THE
HUMAN RADIATION EXPERIMENTS You
can only fool intelligent people for so long. Our take on this new round of
transparent propaganda alleging a natural evolution of the AIDS virus from
wild African chimpanzees is that it is a desperate attempt to further obscure
the scientific evidence and incriminating facts. Now that thousands of grassroots
activists are successfully alerting millions more regarding the works by Drs.
Strecker, Cantwell, Horowitz and others, spin doctors need to work overtime.
Their periodic propaganda can only distract and confuse people for so long.
Millions now realize that AIDS, as well as other immune system related disorders
including chronic fatigue CFIDS, fibromyalgia, Lupus, multiple sclerosis and
many more neurologic injuries including autism, attention deficit, and hyperactivity
disorders in our children, along with several unique contemporary cancer epidemics
including lymphomas, leukemias and sarcomas, are largely vaccine induced injuries. John
Seale, M.D., concluded that AIDS was man-made in "Origins of the AIDS
Viruses, HIV-1 and HIV-2: Fact or Fiction?" which was published by The
British Journal of the Royal Society of Medicine in 1988 (81: 617-619). And Dr. Georges Mathe, the father of bone marrow
transplantation and one of the giants of clinical immunology, has long stated
HIV is an engineered virus. Lieutenant
Colonel Thomas E. Bearden (U.S. Army, retired) wrote the book, AIDS Biological
Warfare in 1988 claiming that HIV was developed in American biowarfare labs,
urging: "It is imperative that the Congress of the United States launch
a full investigation of the entire background of the AIDS biowarfare strike,
as a matter of the highest priority." Bearden holds a Master of Science
degree in nuclear engineering and a Bachelor of Science degree in mathematics,
and now heads an aerospace firm. The
New York Native was the first American paper to report the story, quoting
an anonymous source who worked for the Fort Detrick Biological Warfare lab
in Bethesda, Maryland, and claimed that the AIDS Biowarfare program was called
"Operation Firm Hand." (4/13/87). Jakob
Segal, an East Berlin microbiologist, interviewed in the London Sunday Express,
October 26, 1986, insisted that "the AIDS virus was man-made," and
when asked about the widely-accepted green monkey theory of AIDS, the German
professor quipped, "It's ludicrous and scientifically incredible -- and
has been promoted I believe, by the U.S. Government as part of the cover-up." Dr.
Elisabeth Kubler-Ross, M.D., has been most outspoken against physicians who
are hiding the truth about the man-made origin of HIV and generous with her
endorsements promoting Dr. Cantwell's honest books. Dr. Cantwell's expose
of AIDS as a man-made epidemic has already resulted in the New York and Los
Angeles productions of two critically-acclaimed plays: Aubrey Hampton's MIXED
BLOOD: A DRAMA ABOUT THE CREATION OF THE AIDS VIRUS; and Christian Ander's
THE MAN WHO CREATED AIDS. The
AIDS biologic experiment is a replay of the medical terrors of Nazi Germany,
but few people realize that another man-made Holocaust is occurring in front
of our eyes. Dr. Strecker has astutely pointed out why the perpetrators selected
gay men for the hepatitis B experiment. Because, said the doctor, they knew
that NOTHING would be done since homosexuals are the most hated group in history.
And the silence continues! NEVER
in the history of medicine has a viral disease EXCLUSIVELY attacked only gay
men (originally). HERE, according to the doctors, is the "SMOKING GUN"...... How
do you turn a black heterosexual disease in Africa into a white homosexual
disease in America? How could AIDS have started in Africa and in New York
City at the same time?

SECRETLY EXPERIMENTS ON ITS OWN PEOPLE
How scientists secretly used U.S. citizens
as guinea pigs during the Cold War
2001 by Alan R Cantwell Jr., M.D.
In preparing America for nuclear attack during the Cold War years following
World War II, thousands of U.S. citizens became the innocent victims of over
4,000 secret and classified radiation experiments conducted by the Atomic
Energy Commission (AEC) and other government agencies, such as the Department
of Defense, the Department of Health, Education and Welfare, the Public Health
Service (now the CDC), the National Institutes of Health, the Veterans Administration
(VA), the CIA, and NASA.
Millions of people were exposed to radioactive fallout from the continental
testing of more than 200 atmospheric and underground nuclear weapons, and
from the hundreds of secret releases of radiation into the environment. Over
200,000 "atomic vets" who worked closely with nuclear detonations at the Nevada
test site during the 1950s and 1960s were especially vulnerable to radiation
fallout.
Also affected were the thousands of so-called "downwinders", who lived in
nearby small towns in Nevada, Utah, Colorado and New Mexico. These downwinders
(along with the animal populations) suffered the worst cumulative radioactive
effects of fallout, along with a contaminated environment teeming with radioactive
food and farm products. The plight of these poor country people exposed to
government-induced radiation sickness has been recorded in Carole Gallagher's
remarkable photo-essay American Ground Zero: The Secret Nuclear War (The Free
Press, 1993).
In reviewing declassified AEC records (now the Department of Energy) from
the 1950s, Gallagher was shocked to discover one document that described the
people downwind of the Nevada Test Site as "a low use segment of the population."
Her shock at such callous bigotry caused her to eventually move West to research,
investigate and document those who lived closest to the Test Site, as well
as workers at the site, and soldiers repeatedly exposed to nuclear bombs during
the military tests.
Disinformation and Nuclear Fallout
In the nuclear arms race, government doctors and scientists brainwashed the
public into believing low dose radiation was not harmful. Some officials even
tried to convince people that "a little radiation is good for you." Totally
ignored was the knowledge that the radiation from nuclear fallout could lead
to an increased risk of cancer, heart disease, neurological disorders, immune
system disease, reproductive abnormalities, sterility, birth defects, and
genetic mutations which could be passed on from generation to generation.
The full extent of this radiation damage to the American public during the
Cold War years will never be known.
A secret AEC document, dated 17 April 1947, reveals that physicians were aware
of these radiation hazards but simply ignored them. Under the title "Medical
Experiments in Humans," the memorandum read: "It is desired that no document
be released which refers to experiments with humans that might have an adverse
effect on public opinion or result in legal suits. Documents covering such
field work should be classified 'Secret'."
According to Gallagher, many downwinders testified that the Public Health
Service officials told them that their 'neurosis' about the fallout was the
only thing that would give them cancer, particularly if they were female.
Women with severe radiation illness, hair loss, and badly burned skin, were
clinically diagnosed in hospitals as "neurotic." Other severely ill women
were diagnosed with 'housewife syndrome'." When Gallagher's investigation
led her to ask a Department of Energy spokesperson about the AEC/DOE's practice
of waiting until the wind blew towards Utah before testing nuclear bombs or
venting radiation in order to avoid contaminating Las Vegas or Los Angeles,
the unabashed and unconcerned official actually said on tape, "Those people
in Utah don't give a shit about radiation."
Secret Radiation Experiments
Only recently, with the forced release of Top Secret documents, have details
been revealed about the unethical and inhumane radiation studies conducted
during the Cold War years from 1944 to 1974. The initial story broke in November
1993 in a series of articles in the Albuquerque Tribune which identified the
names of 18 Americans secretly injected with plutonium, a key ingredient of
the atomic bomb and one of the most toxic substances known to man. Some, but
not all, of the patients were terminally ill. This horrifying story by journalist
Eileen Welsome (who later won a Pulitzer Prize) unleashed a storm of nationwide
protest prompting Department of Energy Secretary Hazel O'Leary to order the
release of secret files and documents pertaining to these Cold War experiments.
The extremely dangerous plutonium experiment was performed under the auspices
of the government's Manhattan Project, which brought together a revered group
of distinguished scientists to develop and test the atom bomb. The purpose
of these secret experiments was to establish occupational standards for workers
who would be producing plutonium and other radioactive ingredients for the
nuclear energy industry.
Some of the classified government experiments included:
=Exposing more than 100 Alaskan villagers to radioactive iodine during the
1960s
=Feeding 49 retarded and institutionalized teen-agers radioactive iron and
calcium in their cereal during the years 1946-1954.
=Exposing about 800 pregnant women in the late 1940s to radioactive iron to
determine the effect on the fetus.
=Injecting 7 newborns (six were Black) with radioactive iodine.
=Exposing the testicles of more than 100 prisoners to cancer-causing doses
of radiation. This experimentation continued into the early 1970s.
=Exposing almost 200 cancer patients to high levels of radiation from cesium
and cobalt. The AEC finally stopped this experiment in 1974.
=Administering radioactive material to psychiatric patients in San Francisco
and to prisoners in San Quentin.
=Administering massive doses of full body radiation to cancer patients hospitalized
at the General Hospital in Cincinnati, Baylor College in Houston, Memorial
Sloan-Kettering in New York City, and the U.S. Naval Hospital in Bethesda,
during the 1950s and 1960s. The experiment provided data to the military concerning
how a nuclear attack might affect its troops.
=Exposing 29 patients, some with rheumatoid arthritis, to total body irradiation
(100-300 rad dose) to obtain data for the military. This was conducted at
the University of California Hospital in San Francisco.
The Atomic Energy Commission
In 1995 the Energy Department admitted to over 430 radiation experiments conducted
by the Atomic Energy Commission between the years 1944 and 1974. Over 16,000
people were radiated, some of whom did not know the health risks or did not
give consent.
These experiments were designed to help atomic scientists understand the human
hazards of nuclear war and radiation fallout. Because the entire nuclear arms
buildup was classified secret, these experiments were all stamped secret and
allowed to take place under the banner of protecting "national security."
Amazingly, these clandestine studies were conducted at the most prestigious
medical institutions and colleges, including the University of Chicago, the
University of Washington, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, V anderbilt
University in Nashville, and the previously mentioned universities.
Uranium Mine Workers
In addition to these radiation experiments, workers who mined uranium for
the AEC in the Four Corners area of Arizona, Utah, Colorado and New Mexico,
were exposed to radioactive dust during the 1940s up to the 1960s. Although
AEC scientists and epidemiologists knew the dust in these poorly ventilated
mines was contaminated with deadly radon gas which could easily cause death
from lung cancer, this lifesaving information was never passed on to the miners,
many of whom were Native Americans. As a result, many miners died prematurely
of cancer of the lung.
Stewart Udall, an Arizona Congressman and lawyer who also served as Secretary
of the Interior during the Kennedy and Johnson administrations, represented
the miners and their families in a class action lawsuit against the federal
government for radiation injuries. In The Myths of August, Udall writes that
some physicians who defended the decisions of the atomic establishment sought
to justify these experiments by contending that little was known about the
health risks associated with the various exposures. Others tried to put a
positive face on tests conducted without obtaining informed consent by maintaining
that these experiments nevertheless produced advance in medical knowledge.
Some physicians argued that the conduct of the AEC doctors should be condoned
because they were merely following the 'prevailing ethics' of the postwar
period. When the miners' case finally came to trial in 1983, the federal court
in Arizona dismissed the case by declaring the U.S. government was immune
from lawsuit.
Medical Ethics of the Cold War
How could these physician-experimenters ignore the sworn Hippocratic Oath
promising that doctors will not harm their patients? Did they violate the
Nuremberg Code of justice developed in response to the Nazi war crimes trials
after World War ll?
The Nuremberg Code includes 10 principles to guide physicians in human experimentation.
In actuality, prior to the Nazi war crime tribunals, there was no written
code for doctors; and lawyers defending the Nazi doctors tried to argue that
similar wartime experiments were conducted with prisoners at the Illinois
State Penitentiary, who were deliberately infected with malaria. During the
Nuremberg trials the AMA came up with its own ethical standards, which included
three requirements: 1) voluntary consent of the person on whom the experiment
is to be performed must be obtained; 2) the danger of each experiment must
be previously investigated by animal experimentation; and 3) the experiment
must be performed under proper medical protection and management.
The records now show that many victims of the government's radiation experiments
did not voluntarily consent as required by the Code. As late as 1959, Harvard
Medical School researcher Henry Beecher viewed the Code "as too extreme and
not squaring with the realities of clinical research." Another physician said
the Code had little effect on mainstream medical morality and "doubted the
ability of the sick to understand complex facts of their condition in a way
to make consent meaningful."
Writing in the Journal of the American Medical Association in 1996, Jay Katz
recalls an argument at Harvard Medical School in 1961 suggesting that the
Code was not necessarily pertinent to or adequate for the conduct of research
in the United States. Katz writes: "The medical research community found,
and still finds, the stringency of the NC's first principle all to onerous."
But patients in medical experiments expect the experiment to help them in
some way — not to harm them! Patients also are often inclined to totally trust
their physicians not to harm them." In The Nazi Doctors and the Nuremberg
Code, Katz concludes that many doctors view the Code as "a good code for barbarians
but an unnecessary code for ordinary physicians."
The President's Advisory Committee
In January 1994 President Clinton convened an Advisory Committee to investigate
the accusations surrounding the human radiation experiments. In their final
report presented to the president on October 3, 1995, the Committee found
that up to the early 1960s it was common for physicians to conduct research
on patients without their consent.
The Committee's harshest criticism was reserved for those cases in which physicians
used patients without their consent in experiments in which the patients could
not possibly benefit medically. These cases included the 18 people injected
with plutonium at Oak Ridge Hospital in Tennessee, the University of Rochester
in New York, the University of Chicago, and the University of California at
San Francisco, as well as two experiments in which seriously ill patients
were injected with uranium, six at the Univer sity of Rochester and eleven
at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston. The plutonium and uranium experiments
undoubtedly put the subjects at increased risk for cancer in ten or twenty
years' time.
The Final Report of the President's Advisory Committee is now available in
The Human Radiation Experiments, published in 1996 by Oxford Press. Although
the Committee studied the experiments in depth, there was no attempt to assess
the damage done to individuals. In many cases, the names and records of the
patients were no longer available, nor was there any easy way to identify
how many experiments had been conducted, where they took place, and which
government agencies sponsored them. The Department of Health and Human Services,
the primary government sponsor of research, had long since discarded files
on experiments performed decades ago.
The Committee discovered "the records of much of the nation's recent history
had been irretrievably lost or simply could not be located" and "only the
barest description remained" for the majority of the experiments. The Department
of Energy also claimed all the pertinent records of its predecessor, the AEC,
had been destroyed during the 1970s, but in some cases as late as 1989. All
CIA records are classified. When records of the top secret MKULTRA program
(in which unwitting subjects were experimented upon with a variety of mind-altering
drugs) were requested, the CIA explained that all pertinent records had been
destroyed during the 1970s when the program became a national scandal.
Keeping Government Secrets
The Committee made clear that its story could not have been told if the government
did not keep some records that were eventually retrieved and made public.
However, federal records management law also provides for the routine destruction
of older records. Thus, in the great majority of cases the loss or destruction
of requested documents was a function of normal record-keeping practices.
The Committee was dismayed to report: "At the same time, however, the records
that recorded the destruction of documents, including secret documents, have
themselves been lost or destroyed. Thus, the circumstances of destruction
(and indeed, whether documents were destroyed or simply lost) is often hard
to ascertain.
In the Committee's judgment the AEC had repeatedly deceived the public by
denying it had engaged in human experimentation, and by issuing cover stories
to cover-up secret investigations, and by deliberately supplying incomplete
information to people who participated in government-sponsored biomedical
research. It was clear than once government information was "born secret"
it often remained that way.
The Committee concludes: "The government has the power to create and keep
secrets of immense importance to us all." Yet, without documents how can historians
and other researchers uncover the truth about the government's clandestine
activities? Where is the 'smoking gun' when secret records are systematically
shredded or reported as 'lost'? We now know that many people were damaged
during the government's Cold War period of secrets and lies. But how can we
uncover the medical and scientific secrets that remain hidden in the still
classified documents from 1974 up to the present?
In the absence of medical records and follow-up, the ultimate fate of individuals
who willingly or unwillingly "volunteered" for these experiments is not known.
The Committee simply did not have the time or the resources to review individual
files and histories. In many instances only fragmentary information survives
about these experiments; whether people were harmed in these experiments could
not be ascertained.
Current Secret Biomedical Experimentation
The U.S. has the world's largest arsenal of chemical and biological weapons.
However, few people are aware of the covert biowarfare experiments conducted
by various government agencies, particularly the military and the CIA. For
example, in August 1977 the CIA admitted to no less than 149 subprojects,
including experiments to determine the effects of different drugs on human
behavior; work on lie-detectors, hypnosis, and electric shock; and the surreptitious
delivery of drug-related materials. Forty-four colleges and universities were
involved, along with fifteen research foundations, twelve hospitals or clinics,
and three penal institutions. In the infamous MKULTRA mind-altering experiments,
the victims were lured to hotel rooms for sexual encounters with prostitutes
and were then drugged and monitored by CIA agents. Military biowarfare attacks
against unsuspecting Americans in the 1950s and 60s are a documented reality.
The most notorious was a six-day U.S. military bioattack on San Francisco
in which clouds of potentially harmful bacteria were sprayed over the city.
Twelve people developed pneumonia due to these infectious microbes, and one
elderly man died from the bioattack.
In other secret attacks, bacteria were sprayed into New York City subway tunnels;
into crowds at a Washington, D.C. airport; and onto highways in Pennsylvania.
Biowarfare testing also took place in military bases in Virginia, in Key West,
Florida, and off the coasts of California and Hawaii. For 50 years the shameful
details of the government's radiation experiments were kept secret from the
public. In The Plutonium Files, Eileen Welsome notes the ethical horror that
resulted from the melding of military and medical agendas during the Cold
War. She credits the atomic bomb project's public relations machine for downplaying
the fallout controversy, the illnesses of the atomic veterans, and the diseases
of the downwinders. The government propagandists simply placed the blame on
sudden wind shifts, misinformed scientists, the overactive imagination of
aging soldiers, and even Communist propagandists.
Welsome concludes, "The web of deception and denial looks in retrospect like
a vast conspiracy, but in actuality it was simply a reflection of the shared
attitudes and beliefs of the scientists and the bureaucrats who were inducted
into the weapons program at a time of national urgency and never abandoned
their belief that nuclear war was imminent." She worries if what we have learned
from the thousands of radiation experiment documents made public over the
last several years will be remembered. Like the Holocaust and the Nazi crimes
against humanity, the radiation experiments should never be forgotten. In
reviewing Welsome's book for the Los Angeles Times (January 2, 2000), Thomas
Powers asks: "If the government lied about the danger of nuclear testing,
can we trust them to tell us the truth about acid rain, global warming or
the safety of deep storage for nuclear waste?"
Does Secret Medical Experimentation Continue?
To this day there are no adequate safeguards to protect people from secret
government experimentation. Since the mid-1970s we have witnessed the spectacular
rise of genetic engineering and molecular biology, as well as the concomitant
outbreak of new and mysterious diseases like AIDS, chronic fatigue syndrome,
the peculiar "Four Corners" lung disease discovered on Navajo land, and the
appearance of unprecedented "emerging" viruses never before seen on the planet.
Investigators linking the possible origin of these diseases to the dangerous
engineering of new microbes are often dismissed as paranoids and crackpots.
The mysterious Persian Gulf War syndrome is yet another recent illness clouded
in military and biologic secrecy, with the origin and cause still debated
and the medical records of sick veterans often "lost" or otherwise unavailable.
Not surprisingly, the same government institutions that funded the radiation
experiments now largely control the research, the funding, and the cover stories
pertaining to all these new diseases and viruses.
What is clear from studying the Committee's Final Report is that the medical
and scientific professions collaborated with the government and the military
to abuse and harm U.S. citizens. In the process, the nuclear establishment
literally got away with murder. And there is simply no end to the secrets
that still emerge from the Cold War years that began 58 years ago with the
Manhattan Project.
In January 2000, the government presented the results of a statistical study
showing that atomic workers employed in the nuclear weapons industry during
the Cold War were more likely to suffer a higher rate of cancer, due to their
exposure to cancer-causing radiation and chemicals.
From the 1940s up to the present time, government lawyers and scientists have
repeatedly rejected the claims of workers who became sick as result of nuclear
radiation and exposure to deadly uranium, plutonium, and fluorine. As many
as 600,000 workers in 14 nuclear weapons plants are now affected by the government's
final admission of wrongdoing in exposing these people to cancer and other
chronic illnesses.
According to a Los Angeles Times report, "workers told of spending years trying
to get compensation payments from the state, of having to hire attorneys to
get disability pay, of going to clinics that forced them to sign away rights
to a portion of any future disability payment before they could be treated."
Kay Sutherland, a worker at the Hanford plutonium plant in central Washington
State, told a hearing that "the people in this area have been forced into
poverty because they've had to retire in their 30s, 40s, and 50s, too young
to get a retirement, and too young to get Social Security. They fall through
the cracks and they die." Sutherland has lost four of her five family members
to disease, and has an enlarged liver and multiple tumors. She considers herself
"a Holocaust survivor for the American Cold War.
How can we stop these nuclear and biological horrors, which have condemned
thousands of innocent people to disease and death? Why must decades of government-sanctioned
medical abuse be kept secret and covered-up by scientists and physicians who
claim to be concerned about the health of the public?
One way to prevent abuse might be to bring the physician-scientist perpetrators
of these experiments to justice in a court of law. However, unless the public
is aroused, this is unlikely to happen.
Writing in the Columbia Journalism Review, Geoffrey Sea notes: "A startling
fact about the experiments is that, despite the documentation of hundreds
of cases of unethical conduct resulting in lasting damage to thousands of
people, not a single physician or nurse, scientist or technician, policy maker
or administrator has yet come forward to admit wrongdoing."
For over twenty years the law allowed the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD)
to use Americans as "guinea pigs." This law (the U.S. code annotated Title
50, Chapter 32, Section 1520 , dated July 30, 1977) remained on the books
until it was repealed under public pressure in 1998. The new and revised bill
prohibits the DoD from conducting tests and experiments on humans, but allows
"exceptions." One of the exceptions is that a test or experiment can be carried
out for "any peaceful purpose that is related to a medical, therapeutic, pharmaceutical,
agricultural, industrial, or research activity." Thus, the 1998 law has obvious
loopholes which allow secret testing to continue. For details on the restrictions
(and exceptions) for human testing for chemical and biological agents, consult
the Gulf War Vets website at http.//www.gulfwarvets.com/1520a.htm.
Unethical and dangerous experimentation undoubtedly continues in secret up
to the present time, ostensibly under the guise of "national security." Thus,
it would seem prudent for patients to think twice before signing-up for government-sponsored
medical studies, particularly at leading medical institutions. Enlightened
patients might also view doctors (and scientists) with a healthy dose of skepticism,
and a touch of paranoia.
As weird as all this sounds, it could save your life!
