GMO Disease Epidemics: AIDS

by Myron (Mike) Stagman, PhD Friday, Aug. 25, 2006 at 1:00 PM

Genetic Engineering (GE,GM,GMOs) is a nightmare technology that has already caused MANY disease epidemics -- documented but unpublicized. This is the 15th in a series revealing the epidemics, dealing here with a plague that has already killed 25 million people -- AIDS.

GMO Disease Epidemics: 
(15) Genetically-Engineered AIDS ??
(Very Probably)


There are a number of reasons for believing that AIDS, which has already killed 25 million people, was a genetically engineered product of the U.S. Government. 

What reasons support the contention of AIDS as a genetically-engineered disease epidemic?

1.   The  history of AIDS has seen,  perpetrated by the government and the corporate-controlled media,  the suppression of alternative, dissident opinion. 

This picture is worth a thousand words, all of which declare the official version of AIDS to be placed in the same category as the official version of the Iraq war, the official version of genetically-engineered food & crops, etc.

Suppression of alternative opinion (e.g. that AIDS is a virus man-made in American laboratories, that drugs -- especially vaccines -- have caused AIDS), including those of highly respected scientists, indicates that something is rotten in the state of conventional and official declarations.

2.  One must understand that Genetic Engineering is probably THE most important development in the world since World War II.

Genetic Engineering is revolutionizing food and medicine,   revolutionizing warfare,
revolutionizing the distribution of social & political power, and can biologically revolutionize human and other animal species.

Genetic Engineering is an almost unimaginably powerful weapon that is destroying democracy & freedom along with the safety of food & medicine. 

Genetic Engineering is a wild dream come true for power-mad evildoers.

Its development -- and guarding -- has therefore been a top priority for corporations and the governments they dominate.

3.  AIDS has earmarks of genetically-engineered disease -- such as we have seen in GM-tryptophan-caused Eosinophilia Myalgia Syndrome:   smashing of the immune system and a resultant syndrome of serious, multi-organ chronic diseases in one victim; 
the jumping of species (in this case, from non-human primates to humans) -- since Genetic Engineering is designed to jump species against the laws of Nature.

[see GMO Disease Epidemics: (1) GM-Tryptophan food supplement]


4.  AIDS is ANOTHER of those "new viruses"  which have mysterously arisen during the GMO era. 
[see  "GMO Disease Epidemics:  (11)  Mystery Diseases: Human Health" -- especially note the role of VIRUSES]

 
AIDS was first recognized perhaps significantly in the year 1981 -- the year of Toxic Oil Syndrome in Spain (very likely to have been genetically engineered, and possibly the result of  a U.S. Military accident or experiment on a civilian population since the first cases arose near the U.S. military base at Torrejon).

[ see  "GMO Disease Epidemics:  (13) Toxic Oil Syndrome"]


5.  The U.S. Government has been experimenting with germ warfare agents on civilian populations for 50 years.

6.  Dr. Alan Cantwell writes, "Genetic Engineering of viruses became an  integral part of the Special Virus Cancer Program [SVCP] under [President Richard] Nixon under auspices of the NCI [National Cancer Institute].  Nixon also transferred part of the Army's biological warfare unit at Fort Detrick, Maryland, over to the NCI, thereby allowing secret biowarfare experimentation to be carried out under cover of bona fide cancer research. . . . All this virus tranfer [by genetic engineering biotechnology] and molecular manipulation was a biologic disaster waiting to happen."

"The SVCP was the birthplace of genetic engineering . . ."

This bio-engineering of dangerous viruses took place not long before AIDS broke out in the USA and then Africa.

[Speculation:  I think of the distinct possibility that the SVCP genetic-engineering virus program may not merely have used cancer research as a cover.  Many cases of AIDS included unusual cancers, and the virus program may have been seeking to damage the immune system and induce cancer, using NCI cancer research for this purpose.]

7.  "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 . . . .  Russian scientists had worked hand in hand with [American] 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." (Cantwell)

[Note: The American germ warfare program and medical research in general use 55,000 primates (especially newborn and baby chimpanzees) YEARLY.  Chimpanzees are now an ENDANGERED SPECIES.]

8.  Hepatitis B Vaccine --- In 1978, the U.S. Government began experimenting with the Hepatitis B vaccine  on thousands of gay men in New York City, then in Manhattan.

The Hepatitis B vaccine that wreaked health havoc in the 1990s was genetically engineered.
[see "GMO Disease Epidemics: (2) Hepatitis B Vaccine"]

Based on this, it is a virtual certainty that the experimental Hepatitis B vaccine in 1978 was genetically engineered.

In 1979,  the first cases of AIDS in gay men were reported from Manhattan.

"There was no AIDS in America until the exact year the government began experimenting with gay men." (Dr. Alan Cantwell)

The Hepatitis B vaccine experiment continued, using gay men in Los Angeles, San Francisco, Chicago and other places, ending in October 1981, the same year the epidemic became official.

9.  Vaccines in Africa --- The outbreak of AIDS in Africa coincided suspiciously with a widespread VACCINATION PROGRAM, particularly smallpox, conducted by the World Health Organization (WHO) in the 1970s in Central Africa.  In the early 1980s, the AIDS epidemic erupted in Africa.
 

"The link of AIDS to African vaccines was suppressed and never appeared in the controlled major American media." (Cantwell)

Were the vaccines, primarily smallpox, genetically engineered?  There has been so much talk by  government personnel that they want to genetically engineer the smallpox virus that -- given the coincident AIDS epidemic in Africa -- one might well conclude that they already did it.

Moreover, as in New York at the same time, Africans were experimented upon with Hepatitis B vaccine.  As we have seen, that vaccine must have been genetically engineered.


10.  The AIDS virus is contagious via intimate personal contact (unlike Eosinophilia Myalgia Syndrome). 
AIDS  has been linked by independent authors to the U.S. Government's germ warfare program and to VACCINATIONS.

Gulf War Syndrome was a genetically-engineered disease epidemic which was part of of the Government's germ warfare experimentation program, infecting  victims prominently via VACCINATION --- and Gulf War Syndrome WAS contagious by intimate personal contact.

[see GMO Disease Epidemics: (8) Gulf War Syndrome]

THEREFORE,  the similarities with Gulf War Syndrome, including the evident germ warfare background to both AIDS and GWS, certainly point the finger at AIDS as a genetically-engineered disease epidemic.


Conclusion

I am personally quite convinced that AIDS was a genetically-engineered disease epidemic.  Given the entire history of genetic engineering, a significant portion of which I have tried to present in this series on GMO Disease Epidemics, I am 100% convinced.

Umm, a little anachronism problem

HIV infection has been documented back to 1959.

An African HIV-1 sequence from 1959 and implications for the origin of the epidemic.

Zhu T, Korber BT, Nahmias AJ, Hooper E, Sharp PM, Ho DD.

Nature. 1998 Feb 5;391(6667):594-7.

ABSTRACT:

There is considerable genetic diversity among viruses of different subtypes (designated A to J) in the major group of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1), the form of HIV that is dominant in the global epidemic. If available, HIV-1 sequences pre-dating the recognition of AIDS could be crucial in defining the time of origin and the subsequent evolution of these viruses in humans. The oldest known case of HIV-1 infection was reported to be that of a sailor from Manchester who died of an AIDS-like illness in 1959; however, the authenticity of this case has not been confirmed. Genetic analysis of sequences from clinical materials obtained from 1971 to 1976 from members of a Norwegian family infected earlier than 1971 showed that they carried viruses of the HIV-1 outlier group, a variant form that is mainly restricted to West Africa. Here we report the amplification and characterization of viral sequences from a 1959 African plasma sample that was previously found to be HIV-1 seropositive. Multiple phylogenetic analyses not only authenticate this case as the oldest known HIV-1 infection, but also place its viral sequence near the ancestral node of subtypes B and D in the major group, indicating that these HIV-1 subtypes, and perhaps all major-group viruses, may have evolved from a single introduction into the African population not long before 1959.

In addition, genetic analysis of the HIV sequence indicates a high probability that the virus first entered the human population around 1931 (95% confidence interval 1910-1950)

Timing the Ancestor of the HIV-1 Pandemic Strains

ABSTRACT:

HIV-1 sequences were analyzed to estimate the timing of the ancestral sequence of the main group of HIV-1,the strains responsible for the AIDS pandemic. Using parallel supercomputers and assuming a constant rate of evolution, we applied maximum-likelihood phylogenetic methods to unprecedented amounts of data for this calculation. We validated our approach by

correctly estimating the timing of two historically documented points. Using a comprehensive full-length envelope sequence alignment, we estimated the

date of the last common ancestor of the main group of HIV-1 to be 1931 (1915Ð41). Analysis of a gag gene alignment, subregions of envelope including

additional sequences, and a method that relaxed the assumption of a strict molecular clock also supported these results.

That kind of blows the whole conspiracist timeline out of the water, unless you want to claim that people were genetically engineering viruses before the first virus was isolated (the first virus to be isolated in pure form was a big SOB called the tobacco mosaic virus. It was crystallized in 1935; later work determined that it was made up of protein and nucleic acid. BTW, nucleic acids weren't identified as the carrier of genetic information until 1943, and this wasn't confirmed until 1953. The structure of DNA and the way in which it could replicate wasn't worked out until 1953, and an understanding of RNA, which is the genetic material of HIV only dates back to 1964 or thereabouts.

That doesn't leave much time to genetically engineer a killer virus and infect that poor Congolese by 1959.

In addition, there are apparent AIDS cases dating back to 1952 which are simply not as conclusively supported as the one from 1959.

Of course, you could fall back on the standard-issue conspiracist claim that the people who did all the work to reconstruct the genetic history of HIV, and in fact, every resource we have on the history of science are part of the conspiracy.

I think a more parsimonious explanation is that the OP doesn't know what he's talking about.
