The epidemic of HIV/AIDS and the epidemic of " gay cancer "

 

Kaposi's sarcoma (KS) is widely known as the " gay cancer " that often

accompanied AIDS when the first cases broke out in gay men in

Manhattan in 1979. In 1994 a new " human herpes-8 " virus was discovered

that is now widely accepted as the cause of all forms of KS. However,

it is extremely important to note that the new KS herpes virus (KSHV)

is separate and distinct from the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV),

the virus that causes AIDS (Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome).

Therefore, it is now important to recognize that two new viruses were

" introduced " into gays that produced not only the epidemic of

HIV/AIDS, but also the new epidemic of KS ( " gay cancer " ).

 

Two new viral epidemics erupting exclusively in homosexuals is an

unprecedented event in medical science. Such a bizarre and unlikely

scenario strongly suggests to me that that the two epidemics of HIV

and KS are more likely to have occurred due to the deliberate or

accidental " introduction " of new viruses into gay men " -and not from

two viruses suddenly appearing " out of Africa. "

 

The widely-held theory is that HIV originated in African primates in

the African bush. Somehow the monkey or chimpanzee virus " jumped

species " into black Africans to initiate the epidemic which has now

killed 20 million people and infected 40 million more. How this

sexually-transmitted virus came from black Africa to initially infect

only young white gay men in Manhattan has never been explained

satisfactorily. Furthermore, the epidemic in America erupted in the

late 1970s, at a time when AIDS in Africa was unknown. The AIDS

epidemic in Africa appeared in the autumn of 1982, at the earliest.

 

The man-made origin of HIV/AIDS

 

The man-made theory of AIDS is generally dismissed as " conspiracy

theory. " Nevertheless, AIDS researchers and writers like myself, Dr.

Leonard G Horowitz, Dr. Robert Strecker, Professor Robert Lee, and

others have proposed for two decades that HIV was seeded into gay men

when they volunteered for the experimental hepatitis B vaccine

experiment which took place in Manhattan, beginning in November 1978.

Additional similar hepatitis B experiments using gay men as guinea

pigs continued in other American cities until 1981 -the year the AIDS

epidemic became official. Some of the cities included Los Angeles and

San Francisco which, along with New York City, became the three big

epicenters of the epidemic.

 

My two books on the man-made origin of this disease: AIDS and the

Doctors of Death [1988] , and Queer Blood: The Secret AIDS Genocide

Plot [1993], provide documented evidence to support this theory. A

Google internet search using the key words -man-made origin of

AIDS-has 246,000 citations to various websites that explore this issue

in detail. Despite all this, the man-made theory remains totally

ignored by the scientific establishment and the major media.

 

The origin of the new Kaposi's Sarcoma virus

 

Like HIV, the new KS herpes virus-8 discovered in 1994 is considered

to be yet another primate virus out of Africa with a suspected primate

" viral ancestor " hiding in the African jungle. We are expected to

believe that two primate viruses (a retrovirus and a herpes virus)

jumped species in Africa at the same time -and ended up exclusively in

the blood of white gay American men to produce a new immunodeficiency

disease in 1979, now called AIDS. This proposed scenario suggests to

me that such an unlikely African event has the markings of a

scientific fairy tale, and I remain stupefied that such nonsense can

pass for " science " in the twenty-first century.

 

The origin of Kaposi's Sarcoma

 

KS has a long history dating back to 1872 in Vienna, Austria, when

dermatologist Moriz Kaposi described five patients with red-purple

skin tumors. Before the AIDS outbreak, KS was a very rare disease

affecting mainly elderly Jewish and Italian men. It was never

considered a contagious or sexually-transmitted disease.

 

In the 1960s, it was discovered that KS was a common skin cancer tumor

in blacks in Central Africa, but the disease was never associated with

the severe immunodeficiency characteristic of AIDS, nor was there any

evidence that KS in Africa was sexually transmissible. KS was rarely,

if ever, seen in African-Americans. As a dermatologist for over 30

years I never saw a KS case in a female; and KS in young men of any

race or sexual persuasion was as rare as hen's teeth before the

" introduction " of HIV.

 

KS is a medical enigma. How did a previously rare disease like KS in

America become a transmissible disease primarily affecting gay men?

How did this herpes KS virus escape detection during the first 15

years of the AIDS epidemic? Why did the KS virus and HIV suddenly

appear together in young gay men in 1979?

 

Further complicating this picture is the discovery of small bacterial

forms known as " mycoplasma " , and the even more recent discovery of

extremely tiny virus-like forms of bacteria called " nanobacteria " , as

well as my published reports of " cancer bacteria " as important

etiologic agents in AIDS and KS. (For details, Google: " alan cantwell "

+ cancer bacteria.) All these newer bacterial agents are generally

ignored by AIDS researchers, who focus exclusively on viruses.

 

I believe some of the answers to questions surrounding the origin of

HIV/AIDS can be found in the annual " Progress Reports " reports of the

Virus Cancer Program and the Program's relationship to animal cancer

research, genetic engineering of viruses, cancer vaccine research, and

to covert biological warfare research. These hard-to-find annual

Reports were published by the National Institutes of Health, Public

Health Service, U.S. Department of Health, Education, and Welfare,

Bethesda, Maryland.

 

The Virus Cancer Program (1968-1980)

 

The Virus Cancer Program had it roots in 1964 when Congress provided

funds to the National Institutes of Health (NIH) for intensive

research into the possible role of viruses in leukemia. In 1968 the

Program, then titled the Special Virus-Cancer Program, was enlarged to

encompass all types of cancer. On July 1, 1973 the Special Virus

Cancer Program was renamed The Virus-Cancer Program (VCP) " to

integrate the Program's research activities into the framework of the

new National Cancer Plan. "

 

The Program combined the talents of many of the nation's finest

virologists, biochemists, immunologists, molecular biologists,

epidemiologists, and physicians, in an attempt to uncover the viral

cause of cancer. Two classes of cancer-causing viruses were studied

extensively: the RNA-type tumor " retroviruses " (like HIV) and the DNA

herpes-type viruses (like the KS virus).

 

The main goals were to collect various forms of cancer tissue and test

them in animals; to identify animal and human cancer-causing viruses;

to grow large amounts of " candidate human viruses " for testing

purposes; and to develop vaccines against these cancer viruses. In

essence, the scientists wanted to learn how to use viruses to make

cancer - and to force " normal " cells to become cancerous by subjecting

to viruses.

I have studied the annual Virus Cancer Reports (VCP) covering the

years 1971-1974 and 1976-1978. Each report is 300-400 pages, and the

cumulative volumes refer to thousands of animal cancer virus and

genetic engineering experiments.

 

Biological warfare research, monkey research, and the VCP

 

The annual VCP Reports must be studied with an awareness that the

Program became wedded to secret military biological warfare research

in the early 1970s.

 

On October 18, 1971, as part of Richard Nixon's War on Cancer, the

army's biowarfare research laboratory at Fort Detrick, Maryland, was

permanently joined with the National Cancer Institute; and was

re-titled . the Frederick Cancer Research Center. Litton Bionetics was

named as the military's prime contractor.

 

The primary task of the new Center was " the large scale production of

oncogenic (cancer-causing) viruses 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

new KS virus)- and to the successful propagation of significant

amounts of " human candidate viruses. " Candidate viruses were defined

as animal or human viruses that might cause human cancers. Later, the

objective was to determine if such viruses could induce (either alone

or with other co-carcinogens) human cancers (1977;58). Biowarfare

scientists also had a keen interest in the role of human and non-human

primate viruses as " helper viruses " in the production of cancer (1978;54).

 

A steady supply of research animals (monkeys, chimpanzees, mice, cats,

etc. ) was necessary; and multiple breeding colonies were established

for the VCP. For example, a total of 2,274 primates from Africa and

Asia were shipped to Litton for military use in 1971.

 

Forcing cancer viruses into primates and other animals

 

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 cancer tissue and cancer viruses were injected into

newborn animals or into the womb of pregnant animals. Some animals

were deliberately infected 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 most

similar biochemically and immunologically to human beings. Humans

share 98.4% of their DNA with chimpanzees. Chimps were extensively

used by the VCP because there would be no official testing of cancer

viruses on humans.

 

Robert Gallo, the discoverer of HIV in 1984, was a project officer of

a primate study contracted by Litton Bionetics that pumped cancerous

human tissue, as well as a variety of primate and other viruses, into

newborn macaques (a small species of monkey used as an animal model

for human cancer).

 

The actual number and identity of all the primate viruses created and

adapted to human tissue during the 14 years of the SVCP is not known.

In addition, some primates were released back into the wild carrying

lab viruses with them. This fact is always ignored by molecular

biologists searching for " viral ancestors " in the African bush,

 

By the early 1970s, experimenters had transferred cancer-causing

viruses into several species of monkeys. Herpesvirus saimiri, a monkey

virus discovered in 1967 in the squirrel monkey, has a close genetic

relationship to the new KS herpes virus. H. saimiri virus is harmless

in the squirrel monkey, but when the virus was forced in the lab to

" jump species " into different animal species, such as the owl monkey,

marmosets and rabbits, it produces cancer in the form of fatal

malignant lymphoma.

 

By 1971 Dharam V Ablashi of the NCI succeeded in transferring H.

saimiri, into various cell lines of human origin. (1971;35).

Cancer-causing cat and hamster viruses were also engineered into

macaques and other monkey species.

 

By the early 1970s, it was recognized that forms of human leukemia and

lymphoma were associated with herpes-type viruses. Herpes saimiri, a

DNA-type virus, became the experimental model for the study of human

leukemia and lymphoma. " Thus far, the only DNA viruses associated with

natural cancer of animals and man are herpes viruses " (1973;15).

 

Luis Melendez of Harvard studied additional primate herpes viruses (H.

ateles, H. aotus, and H. saguinus) and determined their ability to

induce cancer (1973;247). Attempts were made " to find a suitable

method for the large-scale production of high-titer Herpesvirus

saimiri " (1973;264). Researchers knew: " The clinical and immunological

picture of human lymphoma and leukemia is closely approximated by the

malignant disease induced in susceptible non-human primates by H.

saimiri. " (1973;265).

 

By 1976 it was also learned that H.saimiri could spread by " contact

transmission " between squirrel and owl monkeys in the laboratory.

 

A monkey virus injected into humans via polio vaccines in the 1950s

 

There are inherent dangers in vaccine production. Many vaccines are

made on living cells; and accidental contamination with bacteria,

mycoplasma, viruses, and newly-recognized " nanobacteria " are constant

problems during the manufacturing process. Laboratory additives (such

as fetal bovine [cow] serum) may also be a source of contamination.

Half the flu vaccine supply for 2004 had to be destroyed due to

contamination with disease-causing bacteria.

 

Some researchers believe that injecting living and killed viruses into

the body can result in these viruses combining with other viruses

normally present in the body, resulting in the formation of new viral

disease-causing " recombinants. " The dangers of vaccines are downplayed

to assure the public that vaccines are safe.

 

The possibility that cancer-causing primate viruses could have been

" introduced " into gays, via the experimental hepatitis B vaccine,

cannot be dismissed as paranoid fantasy. In this regard, we are told

that HIV is the first primate virus to " jump species " to produce an

epidemic in millions of humans. But, in truth, the AIDS epidemic is

the second instance in which a monkey virus has been transferred to

humans.

 

A cancer-causing monkey virus called " simian virus 40 " (SV40) jumped

species a half century ago when virus-contaminated polio vaccines were

injected into millions of people, including half the U.S. population

of that era. (For details, see: www.sv40cancer.com) Government health

officials insist there is no proof that SV40 causes human cancer.

However, independent research over the past decade indicates SV40 is

clearly associated with rapidly-fatal cancers of the lung

(mesothelioma), bone marrow cancer (multiple myeloma), brain tumors in

children, and other forms of cancer.

 

A Washington Times report (September 21, 2003) states, " Some of the

polio vaccine given to millions of American children from 1962 until

2000 could have been contaminated with a monkey virus that shows up in

some cancers, according to documents and testimony to be delivered to

a House committee Wednesday. " The SV40 story is detailed in the

recently published, The Virus and the Vaccine: The True Story of a

Cancer-Causing Monkey Virus, Contaminated Polio Vaccine, and the

Millions of Americans Exposed.

 

The VCP and links to bio-warfare and secret human experimentation

 

Every annual report of the VCP makes clear that human experimentation

with these newly created and genetically-engineered viruses would not

be undertaken. However, the 1972 Report (p 262) also states: " Since

man will not be used as an experimental recipient, it is necessary to

gain proof of oncogenicity by other means. "

 

It is well-known in science that medical doctors will not totally

accept laboratory findings in animals as absolute proof. An

experimental finding in animals must also be proven in humans. It

cannot be assumed that covert human testing of suspected

cancer-causing viruses did not take place in the thousands of

experiments conducted under the auspices of the VCP, particularly with

its strong ties to covert biowarfare research. The U.S. military has a

long history of secret human experimentation. For proof, Google:

secret human medical experimentation.

 

Merck and Co, Inc. made most of the experimental hepatitis B vaccine

that was immediately followed by AIDS cases. Some of the experimental

vaccine was manufactured at the NIH. George Merck, who founded the

drug company, was the leading biowarfare advisor to President

Roosevelt during WW2. He was a central figure in creating the army's

biowarfare laboratory at Ft. Detrick, Maryland, which later became an

integral part of the NCI.

 

Merck's role in the VCP was " to conduct investigations designed to

develop vaccines or other agents effective for the prophylaxis and

therapy for human neoplasia (cancer) of suspected viral etiology "

(1972;139). Great interest was taken in developing anti-herpes virus

vaccines. Research involved a new type of herpes vaccine using

" purified viral protein vaccines " and a " subunit vaccine " utilizing

only a piece of the herpes virus (1977;135).

 

The Merck company declared: " Since live attenuated or killed virus

vaccines for potentially oncogenic viruses would not be acceptable for

human use due to the danger of transfer of functional genetic

material, this project was initiated to determine whether vaccines to

purified viral antigens acceptable for use in humans were of practical

value. " (1977;160) (This proposed " purified " herpes vaccine was

similar in type to the experimental " purified " hepatitis B vaccine

injected into gays the following year.)

 

It is my contention that the introduction of HIV and the KS virus into

gay people, the most hated minority in America, was not an accident of

nature due to monkeys in the jungle.

Would scientists deliberately infect gay men with AIDS to finally

prove that animal cancer viruses cause cancer? In the January 1987

issue of MD magazine, an Oklahoma internist wrote: " Homosexuality is a

sin, deserving the death penalty. " With that kind of mentality not

rare in the medical and scientific world, the answer to the question

is, undoubtedly, yes.

 

The VCP and biohazards

 

The VCP was a biological disaster waiting to happen. What would happen

if one or more of these dangerous cancer and immunosuppressive viruses

escaped from the laboratory and produced a worldwide biologic holocaust?

 

The 1978 report from the Office of Biohazard Safety of the VCP states:

" The inadequate care and handling of animals during the past several

years have created a potential for the occurrence of infection of

humans with simian (primate) microorganisms and cross infection

between species. Such interspecies disease transmission may seriously

compromise the integrity of the experiment as well as the health of

the experimenter. Due to the magnitude of biomedical research

employing tissue cultures. Frequent evaluation of tissue culture

cross-contamination is very important. "

 

The yearly large-scale production of lethal cancer viruses

 

By the late 1970s the mixing of animal cancer viruses with human cells

to produce new " xenotropic " viruses was commonplace. The human cells

in question were placenta ( " afterbirth " ) cells from patients with

immune disease, and cells from leukemia (1978, p 192). Xenotropic

viruses are viruses taken from one species and transplanted into

another different species. All these experiments represent " species

jumping " performed in a laboratory.

 

By 1977 the Program was producing " approximately 60,000 liters (15,840

gallons) of tissue culture-grown viruses, propagated in over 40

different cell lines, and distributed in over 1250 shipments to over

250 participating laboratories throughout the world. "

 

Also in 1977 Electro-Nucleonics Laboratories processed 8,044 liters

(2,024 gallons) of virus-containing fluids harvested from several

tissue culture systems. About half this volume was concentrated

xenotropic viruses. That same year Pfizer drug company produced 28,000

liters

(7,392 gallons) of virus harvest fluids. The vast majority included

primate viruses, such as the Mason-Pfizer monkey virus, woolly monkey

sarcoma virus and baboon endogenous virus. (This baboon virus

contaminated Gallo's lab at the NCI). Litton produced 37,438 liters

(9,984 gallons) of retrovirus material consisting essentially of four

agents: mouse mammary tumor virus, Raucher murine (rat) leukemia

virus, Gross murine leukemia virus and baboon leukemia virus.

 

The VCP made clear that: " Attempts are being made to chronically

infect cell cultures of human epithelial and fibroblast cells and

similar cell cultures from non-human primates (marmosets) with simian

sarcoma virus, gibbon ape leukemia virus and baboon endogenous virus "

(1977;183). A few years later primates in the African bush would be

blamed for starting AIDS and the KS epidemics.

 

The VCP and the creation of an AIDS-like disease in chimps

 

In 1969 the military biowarfare experts predicted that a biological

agent would be developed within a decade that would have a devastating

effect on the immune system and for which there would be no treatment.

(For details of this congressional testimony, Google: Donald M

MacArthur + biowarfare.)

 

The VCP had a keen interest in acquiring " information and materials

from carefully selected patients suffering from immunodeficiency

diseases " (1972;318). This is made clear in a 1973 Progress Report

(p249) from the University of Minnesota entitled, " The search for

tumor virus related information in human immunodeficiency patients

with cancer " The researchers proposed " continuation of studies linking

immunodeficency, cancer, and oncogenic viruses. "

 

As biowarfare expert MacArthur predicted, new cancer-causing monster

viruses (like HIV) were created by the VCP which had a deadly effect

on the immune system. In one experiment recorded in the 1973 Report

(p169), later published in Cancer Research in 1974, newborn chimps

were taken away from their mothers at birth and weaned on milk from

cancer virus-infected cows. Some of the chimps sickened and died with

two diseases that had never been observed in chimpanzees. The first

was Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia (later known as the " gay pneumonia "

of AIDS); the second was leukemia, a cancer of the blood.

 

Cancer-Causing viruses and " helper " viruses

 

As the 1970s began it was clear that some cancer-causing viruses could

not produce cancer unless a " helper " virus was present. Certain

chicken, cat and mouse sarcoma viruses were found to be " defective "

and unable to induce cancerous changes. However, when a " helper "

leukemia virus was added to the mix, the sarcoma virus was able to

induce cancer.

 

Mixing of a mouse sarcoma virus with a cat leukemia virus produced a

" hybrid virus " which could grow continuously in cat cells. Such a

" hybrid virus " was adapted to human embryonic (fetal) cells (1971,

p22). Thus, it is obvious that " species jumping " experiments were

commonplace during the years of the VCP.

 

By the late 1970s it was known that " type C RNA viruses " (the

retroviruses connected with sarcomas and lymphomas and leukemias)

existed normally in cells as " endogenous viruses " within the cellular

genomes of many mammalian species. By 1977, the year the experimental

hepatitis B vaccine was being made, scientists in the VCP aimed " to

determine the oncogenic potential of putative human viruses " and " to

begin viral vaccine (conventional or other) testing and immunization

programs " (1977;32). The exact methods by which this was to be

accomplished was not stated.

 

Primate virus contamination of human cells

 

The possibility that animal cancer viruses could cause contamination

of viral laboratories and viral research was an accepted risk for the

VCP. Primate virus contamination problems have plagued the

laboratories of the world's most famous AIDS researchers, much to

their embarrassment.

 

A decade before Gallo discovered HIV, he reported a " new " and " human "

and cancer-associated " HL-23 virus " that was eventually determined to

be not one but three contaminating primate viruses (gibbon-ape virus,

simian sarcoma virus, and baboon endogenous virus).

 

The baboon virus was discovered in the early 1970s at the Southwest

Foundation for Research and Education in San Antonio, Texas, which

hosted a chimpanzee breeding colony and produced simian viruses for

research. The baboon virus somehow made its way into the blood cells

of a Texas women with leukemia. When the infected cells reached

Gallo's lab they were apparently joined with an additional monkey

virus and an ape virus. How these three viruses contaminated Gallo's

lab is unknown. However, George Todaro, an equally famous virologist,

was quoted as saying, " You can get three viruses into a virus

preparation easily just by being sloppy, and Gallo had plenty of

sloppy people. " (See John Crewdson's Science Fictions: A Scientific

Mystery, A Massive Cover-Up, and the Dark Legacy of Robert Gallo, p20).

 

As late as 1986 Max Essex of Harvard " discovered " a new human AIDS

retrovirus that he found in the blood of healthy Africans. Eventually

this virus also proved to be a monkey virus that originated in a

nearby primate colony. Somehow the animal virus had worked its way

into Essex's lab and blood samples.

 

Interestingly, both Gallo and Essex, the two foremost American AIDS

researchers, were the leading proponents of the African green monkey

theory of AIDS. Now the more widely accepted theory, proposed by

Beatrice Hahn (who worked in Gallo's lab when he proposed the green

monkey theory), claims the virus traces back to chimpanzees in the

African wild. Hahn has never commented on the primate contamination

problems in Gallo's lab.

 

Could the primate " ancestors " of the RNA-type HIV retrovirus and the

DNA-type herpes saimiri-like KS herpes virus have accidentally -or

deliberately-worked their way into the experimental hepatitis B

vaccine? The extremely high incidence of both these " new " viruses in

the gay men who volunteered for the hepatitis experiments certainly

provide enough additional circumstantial evidence to make the man-made

theory of AIDS as plausible as the monkey out of Africa theory.

 

The gay hepatitis B experiments (1978-1981)

 

The experimental hepatitis B vaccine injected into gays was unlike any

other vaccine previously made. It was developed in chimpanzees and

manufactured in a year-long process of sterilization and purification

of the pooled blood of 30 gay men who were hepatitis B virus carriers.

During the first gay experiment (November 1978-October 1979) at the

New York Blood Center, there was great concern that the vaccine might

be contaminated. According to June Goodfield's Quest for the Killers,

p 86, " This was no theoretical fear, contamination having been

suspected in one batch made by the National Institutes of Health,

though never in Merck's. " The men were given three inoculations of the

vaccine over a period of time. The vaccine was successful with 96% of

the men developing protective antibodies against the hepatitis B virus.

 

It has been assumed by some that these men were immunosuppressed due

to their promiscuity and history of venereal disease. Although the

young men in the study were indeed " promiscuous " (this was a

requirement for entrance into the study), they were in excellent

health. Despite many previous sexual partners, these volunteers had

never contracted evidence of hepatitis B infection. Furthermore,

immunosuppressed people often do not respond to the vaccine.

 

The men in the Manhattan experiment had the highest rate of HIV ever

recorded for that time period (over 20% of the men were HIV-positive

in 1981, and over 40% in 1984). Therefore, it must be assumed that

many, if not most, of these men eventually died of AIDS. The actual

number of AIDS deaths among the men in the experiment has never been

revealed, nor have their medical records been studied. Attempts to

secure this information have been rebuffed due to the " confidential "

nature of the experiment.

 

The end of the VCP and the birth of AIDS

 

By 1980 the VCP came to an inglorious end with the inability to prove

that viruses were involved in human cancer. More than any other

program it built up the field of animal retrovirology, which led to a

more complete understanding of how cancer and immunosuppressive

retroviruses caused disease in humans. The VCP was the birthplace of

genetic engineering, molecular biology, and the human genome project.

I am convinced the VCP (and not Africa) is the birthplace of HIV/AIDS

as well.

 

As the VCP was winding down in the late 1970s, the gay experiments

began in New York City, and continued in other cities, such as San

Francisco and Los Angeles. These cities would rapidly become the three

primary epicenters of the new and unprecedented " gay-related immune

deficiency syndrome, " later known as AIDS.

 

The introduction of HIV and the KS herpes virus into gay men (along

with some " novel " and now-patented mycoplasmas discovered at the Armed

Forces Institute of Pathology) miraculously revived the career of

Robert Gallo and made him the most famous virologist in the world.

And, of course, turned the " failure " of the VCP into a triumph.

 

When Gallo's blood test for HIV became available in the mid-1980s, the

New York Blood Center's stored gay blood specimens were reexamined.

Most astonishing is the fact that 20% of the gay men who volunteered

for the hepatitis B experiment in Manhattan were discovered to be

HIV-positive in 1980 (one 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. In addition, in 1982, in an

AIDS trial in New York City one out of five gay men (20%) tested

positive for the new KS herpes-8 virus when stored blood samples were

re-examined by epidemiologists at the NCI in 1999.

 

Rarely mentioned by AIDS historians is the fact that the New York

Blood Center established a chimp virus laboratory for viral vaccine

research in West Africa in 1974. One of the purposes of VILAB II, in

Robertsfield, Liberia, was to develop the hepatitis B vaccine in

chimps. The lab also prides itself by releasing " rehabilitated " (but

virus-infected) chimps back into the wild.

 

Also conveniently forgotten in the history of AIDS is LEMSIP (The

Laboratory for Experimental Medicine and Surgery), the primate colony

located outside New York City. For many years, until disbanded in

1997, LEMSIP supplied scientists with primates and primate parts (and

unknown primate viruses) for transplantation and virus research.

Primate parts (and primate viruses) were experimentally transplanted

in human beings as early as the 1960s.

 

LEMSIP was also affiliated with New York University Medical Center,

where the first cases of AIDS-associated Kaposi's sarcoma were

discovered in 1979. Researchers at NYU were also heavily involved in

the development of the experimental hepatitis B vaccine used in gays.

According to Leonard Horowitz, author of Emerging Viruses: AIDS and

Ebola, NYU Medical Center received government grants and contracts

connected with biological warfare research beginning in 1969.

 

The evidence gathered here is a tiny fraction of the circumstantial

evidence supporting the man-made theory of AIDS. Scientists have a

long and proven history of covertly experimenting on people " in the

name of science. " Anyone who takes the time to study the reports of

the VCP will recognize that human experimentation with cancer viruses

was undoubtedly considered and ultimately desired. Is the fact that

HIV/AIDS appeared within a decade of this dangerous cancer virus

experimentation a coincidence? Should AIDS be blamed on human

sexuality, gays, blacks, and monkeys? I think not.

 

There is nothing wrong or unpatriotic or " conspiratorial " in

presenting the vast amount of evidence that connects out-of-control

animal cancer experimentation and biowarfare research with the birth

of AIDS. What is wrong, however, is the unwillingness of the

scientific establishment and the media and the public to look at it.
