"It is entirely plausible that the AIDS epidemic was started in the U.S. deliberately. Few people would need to know of the plan, and the actions of one person would be sufficient to ignite the epidemic. Maximum effectiveness would require that the introduction of effective means of stopping the virus was blocked for as long as possible, by a carefully planned and sustained campaign of disinformation. The special problem of the release of an AIDS-like virus is that it opens up a Pandora's Box, but it is naive to believe that nobody would be willing to do so." Dr. John Seale Member of the Royal College of Medicine, London Journal of the Royal Society of Medicine September 1988 (Volume 81 pp 537-539)

For the sake of his conservative audience of British physicians, Dr. Seale was understating his own conclusion based on his research into the AIDS epidemic. What he was trying to tell them, in the gentlest way possible, was this: the deliberate introduction of the AIDS virus into mankind is exactly what has happened. Dr. Seale was one of the first medical doctors to break the code of silence about the true cause of the AIDS epidemic. His paper hit the British medical profession like a bombshell, but few among the general public became aware of the explosion.

The media ignored the story. "The scale of the deception and the misinformation has been astonishing," Dr. Seale wrote. "The virus has the properties of a skilled, devious, hidden and implacable invader with the capacity and willingness to kill every man, woman and child on earth. Dissemination of the virus is being actively encouraged by some who wish to destroy our society." What we've come to believe about AIDS is what we've been conditioned to believe by the carefully planned and sustained campaign of disinformation: that AIDS is a plague of nature; but not to worry, it will spare most of us, if we behave ourselves. We've been conditioned to believe that after eons of human life, nature suddenly about fifteen years ago, created the most deadly virus since the Black Plague of the Middle Ages and unleashed it upon millions of Africans and Brazilians and Haitians and American homosexuals and drug addicts, and a small, unfortunate number of white heterosexuals and innocent victims of tainted blood transfusions. We've been conditioned to believe that AIDS is, so to speak, an act of God. But it isn't. AIDS was not an accident of nature. Nature had nothing to do with AIDS.

The virus is a weapon of man against man. It is a weapon of war, deliberately created inside the top-secret U.S. Chemical and Bacteriological Warfare laboratories at Fort Detrick, Maryland and Los Alamos, New Mexico the same government installation where the U.S., fifty years ago, developed the nuclear bombs that were dropped on Japan. The genesis of the AIDS virus can be traced back even further to a very rich and very private and virtually unknown scientific laboratory in Cold Spring Harbor, Long Island. If you know the truth about Cold Spring Harbor, you will know the truth about AIDS. I will tell you as much of that as I know. The truth is so horrifying that it is almost impossible to believe: that officials inside our own government, backed by some of the most powerful families on earth, could be guilty of genocide. But enough proof of that truth has already leaked out to persuade many knowledgeable researchers, such as Dr. Seale, to come forth publicly with what they've learned. In a strange way, the truth behind the AIDS epidemic isn't even such a closely held secret anymore. The media has chosen to ignore it. Certainly no politician has dared utter one word about it publicly. But scientists and doctors and government intelligence agents and political leaders all around the world are aware of bits and pieces of it.

They are just waiting for the public to catch on. In the meantime, most of them want nothing to do with exposing the truth; they are too frightened to discuss it with anybody but their most trusted friends. A few of them, like Dr. Seale, are trying to expose it. "Every biological scientist who has dispassionately studied the virus and the epidemic," Dr. Seale has written, "knows that the origins of the virus could lie in the development of modern biology, just as the origins of the nuclear bomb with modern physics. Most biological scientists have not yet come to terms with the terrible truth and have developed various neurotic reactions to cope with it. Many have developed a selective denial of reality and genuinely cannot see what is happening. Most who see it keep quiet, but increasing numbers are talking privately though they still lack the moral courage to speak out in public. They still hope it is a nightmare which will vanish with tomorrow's dawn. Some who know perfectly well what is happening are deliberately fudging scientific data to keep the heat off them and fellow scientists of their molecular biological 'club.'" The doctors and scientists and intelligence agents who are risking their reputations and their careers and their lives to bring forth the truth are the real heroes of the AIDS epidemic. If the public ever learns enough to demand legal retribution against those responsible for AIDS and force the government into employing proper methods of epidemic control that will help to spare those as yet uninfected, and their children and grandchildren they are the ones who will go down in history as saviours of much, if not all, of mankind. I don't pretend to know the whole story.

I don't believe anybody who wasn't involved in the creation and spread of AIDS to its carefully selected target groups knows the whole story. But I know enough to sketch the outline that follows. Perhaps the most important point to make is that AIDS did not happen by accident any more than it did by nature. Nor is it the result of an insane plot by some deranged scientist or even a small team of deranged scientists. AIDS was the result of a decades-long research program carried out in Chemical and Bacteriological Warfare labs in this country and others. For those involved, it is a triumph of science and the answer to what they regard as the planet's most pressing problem: population control. AIDS is the perfect biological weapon. It can be confined with some degree of success to certain specific groups, and since the incubation period can be more than seven years, millions can be infected before the first person in the chain displays any symptoms. When you really understand the background to AIDS, you see that it is not only believable; it is utterly logical. Once science was far enough advanced in biotechnology to create and destroy life through microscopic manipulations of cells, it was inevitable that this type of bacteriological weapon this plague, which is capable of killing every man, woman and child on earth was inevitable. Just as it was inevitable that nuclear bombs would be dropped once physicists had split the atom in a world at war.

The government's secret branches that develop biochemical weapons have a long history of criminal behavior. AIDS is merely the most lethal of their nefarious projects. Thirty years ago, in the early 10s, as part of their "MK-Ultra" program to develop powerful methods of mind control, CIA officers went into bars and cocktail parties all across America even ran a brothel in the Bay Area, complete with one-way mirrors and cameras and secretly laced innocent people's drinks with a potent new drug they were testing. It was called LSD. America can thank the CIA for the explosion of LSD use with all the havoc and grief it has wreaked since the 10s. They weren't even above testing it on unsuspecting U.S. military officers, at least one of whom, in his chemically induced madness, committed suicide and it was years before his own family discovered the truth of what their government had done to one of its own officers. It's been well-documented that from 1949-19 the Army used the public as guinea pigs for its bacteriological tests in several American cities and on a large scale. The bacteria was sprayed through the North Terminal at Washington National Airport and on the walls of New York City's subways. The bacteria was also released in Florida, California and Alaska. At one site on the Pennsylvania Turnpike, passing cars and trucks were sprayed with the bacteria. The Army just wanted to find out what its new bacteria would do to people. As this article was nearing publication, the details of the Army's Chemical and Bacteriological Warfare experimentation on American cities continued to leak out. In this case, more than forty years later.

I quote from the National Edition of the New York Times, June 10, 1994. An obscure story in a few paragraphs at the bottom of page nine: "Minneapolis Called Toxic Spraying Site," the headline read. The story read: "In a 1953 cold war experiment, the Army sprayed clouds of toxic material over Minneapolis dozens of times and may have caused miscarriages and still-births, a public television station here has reported. "The sprayings in Minneapolis and other cities were described then as part of an effort to develop an aerosol screen to protect Americans from fallout in case of an atomic attack…The material sprayed in Minneapolis was zinc cadmium sulfide, a suspected carcinogen, and the Army was actually testing how chemicals would disperse during biological warfare, the station reported. "One of the sites sprayed in Minneapolis was a public elementary school where former students have reported an unusual number of stillbirths and miscarriages.… "In its report, the station quoted experts as saying zinc cadmium sulfide was toxic and might cause cancer. It said it was sprayed 61 times in four parts of Minneapolis, from generators in the rear of trucks or from rooftops. "One former student of the sprayed school told the station that of her three children, one had Down's syndrome, another was profoundly retarded and a third had a learning disability." This was all done in the cause of Chemical and Bacteriological Warfare. We've read about its existence. It appears in the news every once in a while. The Soviets were said to possess a nightmarish capacity. President Nixon made headlines around the world when he announced he would seek a ban on it.

It made big headlines when herds of sheep mysteriously fell over dead in their fields near the Army's secretive CAB lab at Dugway, Utah. The Army, of course, lied through its teeth and denied any knowledge of what might have happened, but the public discovered years later that the wind changed on a day when they were testing one of their deadly airborne toxins. The post-Watergate investigations, more than a decade after the CIA's MK-Ultra mind control programs, finally brought forth the shocking news that the CIA was drugging thousands of unsuspecting Americans and the scientist in charge, Sid Gottlieb, fled to India rather than answer to Congress. Or face prison. Intelligence sources have informed me that he was also involved in the program to develop a virus, then unnamed, that would kill by destroying the body's immune system. That's the one that became known as AIDS. It may seem unimaginable to an ordinary citizen that the government could be deliberately working on a virus to destroy the human immune system. But why not?

Probed by a Senator in front of TV cameras about whether the CIA had ever considered some exquisitely exotic killing device, former CIA director Richard Helms responded coldly: "Senator, we consider everything." How much of a leap of imagination was it for someone like Gottlieb, who'd spent years on the government payroll testing on his fellow citizens secret and dangerous drugs that created madness and death, to work on a lethal virus? The true stories about Saddam Hussein gassing thousands of Kurds to death and speculation that he might employ chemical and bacteriological weapons against U.S. troops were used to whip up American war fever after the Iraqi invasion of Kuwait.

And then it goes away until next time. The whole subject of Chemical and Bacteriological Warfare just disappears from the media's and the public's radar screen. It's as if amnesia sets in. Meanwhile, every day for the last several decades, many thousands of the world's top scientists and engineers and lab technicians, operating with enormous secret budgets, have devoted their talents to exploiting the microscopic secrets of nature as a weapon to kill, maim, disable or control human beings. Item: Under a CIA-funded program, neurotoxins were developed that could attack the nervous sytem and paralyze people who received them either through freeze-dried, aerosol or other means. Such toxins were manufactured from complex proteins that were subdivided to isolate certain segments or "active sites." The goal of that program was to find a way in which large areas even entire urban areas could be targeted to dull people's decision-making processes and instill a false sense of euphoria. Imagine how effective this would be in "neutralizing" enemy camps whether they were soldiers from another country or political activists within our own.
