> Health Freedom D-Day Coming SOON in New

> Zealand--- Member of NZ Parliament Response to IAHF

>

> IAHF Webmaster: Breaking News, Whats New, What to

> Do, New Zealand, All Countries, Codex, EU FSD, Trans

> Tasman Treaty

>

> IAHF List: I just received the response below from

> Barbara Stewart, a member of the New Zealand

> Parliament, and Health Spokesman for the New Zealand

> First political party.

>

> From the string of messages below, you can see the

> sort of networking IAHF does, connecting health

> freedom fighters world wide for mutual support and

> encouragement.

>

> As you can see from her message, Barbara expects the

> vote to come down VERY SOON in New Zealand on the

> legislation that threatens to implement the Trans

> Tasman Treaty with Australia which would seal New

> Zealand Vitamin consumers fate, robbing them of

> their access to healing nutrients and putting

> thousands of people out of work.

>

> There will only be about 3 days advance notice. As

> you can see, the moment Barbara gets wind that the

> vote is expected, she will get word out to the

> leaders of the New Zealand health freedom movement.

>

> I am sending this out to urge the people of New

> Zealand to BE READY!!

> Have your EARS TO THE GROUND!!

>

> The MOMENT you get word that the vote is expected,

> you MUST spring into action and POUND the Labor

> Party especially, to let them know that you WILL

> DRIVE THEM FROM OFFICE if they vote to pass this

> legislation which would give the Trans Tasman Treaty

> the force of law in New Zealand, thus stripping New

> Zealand of its sovereignty when it comes to

> regulating safe dietary supplements in the way the

> New Zealand PEOPLE want.

>

> HOW THIS PERTAINS TO VITAMIN CONSUMERS WORLD WIDE

>

> New Zealand is a New World Order test country. We're

> witnessing a TEST in a geographically isolated part

> of the world, where the Pharma Cartel which

> dominates much larger Australia, is attempting to

> FORCE ITS WILL on neighboring New Zealand in order

> to CRUSH consumer access to healing nutrients there

> as part of their global eugenics agenda.

>

> This is a MICROCOSM of what we're seeing unfold via

> CODEX, and via the EU Food Supplements Directive. I

> am sending this by way of ILLUSTRATION, as part of

> an ongoing effort to awaken sleeping people world

> wide.

>

> WHAT YOU CAN DO:

>

> The single most important thing American consumers

> (and consumers world wide) can do is to support the

> health freedom groups in your respective countries

> (including IAHF) and to donate to the Alliance for

> Natural Health in the UK via

> http://www.alliance-natural-health.org because their

> lawsuit to overturn the EU Food Supplement Directive

> is PIVOTAL in our efforts to monkeywrench CODEX.

>

> For help in fully connecting the DOTS, please read

> this interview which Greg Ciola did with me in THE

> HEALTH CRUSADER MAGAZINE:
