Stop the Shot Law Suit: Judge Issues ‘Show Cause Order’ to Prove We Have a Right to Be in Court
There are many wrongs under the law, but not everyone has the right to contest them all. Law suits can require plaintiffs (that’s us – the people bringing the suit and making the formal complaint) to show that they have a reason to bring this suit, or, in legal terms,that we have “standing”. We believe that this Show Cause Order is a positive move that gets the issue of standing, which the other side will surely use to try to get the suit dismissed, out of the way before our November 5 hearing.
Yesterday, Judge Reggie B. Walton of the US District Court, District of Columbia, issued a “Show Cause Order” giving us 48 hours to show why we have standing so that the case 1:09-cv–1924-RBW v. U.S. Food and Drug Administration, the “STOP THE SHOT” law suit, can continue.
You can imagine that we have a team of highly skilled, dedicated lawyers and scholars working very hard, indeed right now to create . What’s at stake? Out ability to stop the FDA from releasing any more of the dangerous vaccines for a non-existent pandemic and, in fact, a powerful legal challenge against ALL influenza vaccines. They don’t work, they are not safe and they cause harm. We want them off the market.
We are doing our part to Stop the Shot. What’s your part?
You know that good immune function requires large amounts of Vitamin D. Did you know that health freedom requires the Three Vitamin D’s of Activism?
To keep your health freedom intact, you need to take large doses of them. The Three D’s of Health Freedom are:

While we still have some time, I urge you to add your voice to the nearly 2 1/4 million emails which are flooding the boxes of legislators at the State and Federal levels, secretaries Sebelius of HHS and Napolitano of DHS and the White House. Our voices are loud, and becoming louder. There is not much time to make them heard. Please go to
http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/o/568/campaign.jsp?campaign_KEY=27275 and take action once for every one of your household members, then alert everyone you can reach to do the same. The push back is softening the response of the other side and that is of enormous significance. We need to make the use of these deadly vaccines simply unthinkable. In Germany, the first of the vaccine recipients are beginning to sicken and die from the shot. In Canada, Native Americans have received body bags along with their Swine Flu kits.
There are strong, but as yet unconfirmed, reports that 5 US Navy ships are under quaratine after a 96% flu outbreak rate following vaccination IN APRIL, 2009. Note that the vaccinations for Swine Flu were said to occur 5 months before the “was enough| Swine Flu vaccine, it was ready to test, it had been manufactured and the causative organism was known. We do not yet have information on which vaccine was used, sickening and killing so many healthy young people. But we do know that wherever it is used, it is designed to create the very disease that is being hyped and sold to the world as a fear source, without a shred of solid reason.
Perhaps it was Novartis H1N1 vaccine which the FDA pulled off the market place for labeling inconsistencies in February, 2009. Not enough vaccine? Needs adjuvants to make it go around? Balderdash!
This week coming we will try to make their use illegal, as well. Since the 1964 Keffauver Bill makes it mandatory for the FDA to require that a drug or vaccine be both safe and effective before it can be approved (although we all know how very lax that is), no such testing, lax or otherwise, was carried out before the 4 vaccines approved on September 15, 2009 by Secretary Sebelius were licensed for release into the general public.
Be aware, too, that the nasal mist vaccine by Medimmune is designed to create the flu, leaving immunocompromised people, children, cancer chemotherapy and radiation patients, children and adults on asthma medication, people with eczema and any other type of immune suppression, and babies less than a year old, vulnerable to the disease which will be spread by the nasal mist vaccine. Be aware, too, that this same preparation is to be avoided by pregnant women and the people mentioned above, including young children. Hmmm. How do you do that? How do you vaccinate First Responders, health care workers and pregnant women and children and keep the virus that they are involuntarily shedding from the patients in the hospital and the babies whom this virus will sicken and kill? Clearly, you don’t. Clearly the game is to make very sure that this novel virus, classified as a “Bio weapon” by the US Government, behaves better than SARS, Avian Fly and perhaps the 1976 Swine Flu.
When we enter this case in Washington DC this week, we know that we will likely be facing enormous legal expenses. So far our lawyers have been wonderful about fees BUT we cannot expect that largess forever. An appeal in Federal Court is a huge undertaking. We need two donations from you on a recurring basis, large or small.
The first ends in the number 6 and is thus earmarked for legal funds. The second ends in any other number and will help support us as we move forward on this and both are urgently needed. Click here, http://drrimatruthreports.com/?page_id=189, to keep your health freedom team fighting for you.

Squalene: Be Afraid, Part I
The following article by Edda West was published in 2005. Given the horrific threat of squalene laced vaccines for a mythical danger concocted in a lab, it is all the more relevant now. Please take time to read and share this post and the one that follows it.
This outstanding article details the mechanism of action, and the enormous dangers, of vaccines which contain squalene in any of its forms. But bare in mind as you read this clear, and enormously important article below, that the adjuvanted vaccine approved by the US Government on September 15, 2009, in the total absence of even a shred of safety testing, will contain 1 million times more squalene than even the deadly Vaccine A.
You may have encountered the squalene story before: how injected squalene, even a few molecules of injected squalene, causes the body to attack itself on a rampage of auto immune destruction like an army gone mad and turned on its country. And that is, in fact, exactly what triggered this onslaught of destruction: the US Department of Defense decided to experiment on its citizens, healthy young men and women who had made the terrible mistake of trusting their country to take care of them while they were willing to give their lives to defend it.
Instead, they were betrayed with unsafe vaccines for (or against, it depends on whom you asked) anthrax. The tragedy was that this was no experimental surprise which was revealed for the first time when the vaccine’s terrible consequences showed up over time. No, this adjuvant, or immune response enhancer molecule was known as “Freund’s Complete Adjuvant” and was used in animal experimentation to produce cataclysmic and lethal auto immune disorders in animals. 100% of the time when they were injected.
Fast forward to today’s news: On September 15, 2009 Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius announced the approval, in the total absence of any safety testing, of 4 new vaccines for the novel A/H1N1 Swine Flu virus which allegedly appeared in Mexico this past April for the very first time in the world’s history.
But wait! Patents for this vaccines “against” this very virus were applied for by Medimmune (parent company to Sanofi Aventis), Novartis and Baxter International. Baxter and Novartis applied for patents using squalene-based adjuvants. Baxter and Novartis’ adjuvant of choice is called MF59, detailed in the article below as a powerful – and highly toxic – squalene compound. GSK’s adjuvant, MLP(AS04) [also identified as AS03 in company statements and, like AS01 and 2, contains MLP, or, in simple terms, squalene] is also a powerful and literally poisonous auto immune stimulant made from squalene.
Baxter knows that, as far as immune enhancement to prevent disease goes, squalene adjuvants do not even work. So we have to wonder if – hard, strong and long, if the introduction of squalene has anything to do, anything at all, with the avowed goal of preventing a pandemic.
Quoting Investigative Report Jane Burgermeister,
“On July 13th, WHO ordered the inclusion of oil-in-water adjuvants in the “swine flu” H1N1 vaccines to be distributed throughout the world this autumn on the recommendation of its vaccine advisory panel, packed with Baxter and pharmaceutical executives, in spite of the fact that clinical studies published by Baxter’s own scientific team that patented the H1N1 vaccine demonstrate that such adjuvants are, at best, useless.
‘SAGE [WHO’s advisory panel on Pandemic Vaccines, on which Baxter and other vaccine manufacturers sit – REL] recommended that promoting production and use of vaccines such as those that are formulated with oil-in-water adjuvants and live attenuated influenza vaccines was important,’ says the WHO pandemic briefing note.
http://www.who.int/csr/disease/swineflu/notes/h1n1_vaccine_20090713/en/index.html
In June 2008, Baxter’s Austrian-based scientists Ehrlich, Kistner and Barret published a clinical trial in the New England Journal of Medicine ((Previous Volume 358:2573-2584 June 12, 2008 Number 24) on the safety of an H5N1 whole-virus vaccine, in which they themselves go on record saying that the use of adjuvants did not improve the antibody response.
http://content.nejm.org/cgi/content/short/358/24/2573In spite of the evidence that adjuvants are at best useless, vaccine companies such as Baxter and Novartis are rolling out vaccines which contain adjuvants like squalene (MF59), a substance added to the anthrax vaccine given to US soldiers, causing tens of thousands of Iraq Desert Storm soldiers to suffer permanent neurological damage.
Also, WHO is reported to have advised the use of “antigen sparing” protocols which means they are calling for the use of not much virus and lots of adjuvant.
The effects of adjuvants are so destructive to the human body that some people say that adjuvants are part of the next generation of biological or pharmacological warfare.”
In Squalene: Be Afraid, Part II we will discuss what the underlying reason for this adjuvant and document why the greatest danger in this Pandemic may not even be the vaccine we all have so much reason to fear.

A Glimpse into the Scary World of Vaccine Adjuvants
By Edda West – Published in VRAN Newsletter – Winter 2005
Adjuvants are formulated compounds, which when combined with vaccine antigens intensify the body’s immune response. They are used to elicit an early, high and long-lasting immune response. “The chemical nature of adjuvants, their mode of action and their reactions (side effect) are highly variable in terms of how they affect the immune system and how serious their adverse effects are due to the resultant hyperactivation of the immune system. While adjuvants enable the use of less *antigen to achieve the desired immune response and reduce vaccine production costs, with few exceptions, adjuvants are foreign to the body and cause adverse reactions”, writes Australian scientist Viera Scheibner Ph.D, (1)
The most common adjuvant for human use is an aluminum salt called alum derived from aluminum hydroxide, or aluminum phosphate. A quick read of the scientific literature reveals that the neurotoxic effects of aluminum were recognized 100 years ago. Aluminum is a neurotoxicant and has been linked to Alzheimer’s disease and other neurological disorders. Prior to 1980, kidney patients undergoing long term dialysis treatments often suffered dialysis encephalopathy syndrome, the result of acute intoxication by the use of an aluminum-containing dialysate. This is now avoided using modern techniques of water purification. In preterm infants, prolonged intravenous feeding with solutions containing aluminum is associated with impaired neurologic development. Scientists speculate that aluminum neurotoxicity may be related to cell damage via free radical production, impairment of glucose metabolism, and effects on nerve signal transduction. (2) Vaccines which contain both aluminum adjuvants and mercury based preservative, greatly magnify the neurotoxic effects. (3)
Macrophagic myofasciitis (MMF) is a muscle disease first identified in 1993, and has been linked to vaccines containing aluminum adjuvants. Muscle pain is the most frequent symptom which can be localized to the limbs or be more diffuse. Other symptoms include joint pain, muscle weakness, fatigue, fever, and muscle tenderness. The disorder is associated with an altered immune system in some, but not all patients. A study published in the journal Brain (2001) revealed that 50 out of 50 patients had received vaccines against hepatitis B virus (86%), hepatitis A virus (19%) or tetanus toxoid (58%), 3-96 months (median 36 months) before biopsy. “We conclude that the MMF lesion is secondary to intramuscular injection of aluminum hydroxide-containing vaccines, shows both long-term persistence of aluminum hydroxide and an ongoing local immune reaction, and is detected in patients with systemic symptoms which appeared subsequently to vaccination”, write the authors of the study. (4)
But aluminum’s neurotoxicity is of less concern to the vaccine industry than the fact that it elicits a lesser antibody response to the so called purer recombinant or synthetic antigens used in modern day vaccines than in older style live or killed whole organism vaccines. “This has created a major need for improved and more powerful adjuvants for use in these vaccines.” (5)
For decades, vaccine developers have been tinkering with various substances to trick the body into heightened immune responses. The most effective adjuvants are formulated with oils but have long been considered too reactive for use in humans. Immunologists have known for decades that a microscopic dose of even a few molecules of adjuvant injected into the body can cause disturbances in the immune system and have known since the1930’s that oil based adjuvants are particularly dangerous, which is why their use has been restricted to experiments with animals.
The classic oil based adjuvant called Freund’s Complete Adjuvant can cause permanent organ damage and irreversible disease – specifically autoimmune diseases. When scientists want to induce autoimmune disease in a lab animal, they inject it with Freund’s Complete Adjuvant, which causes great suffering and is considered by some too inhumane to even inject into animals.
Dr. Jules Freund creator of this oil based adjuvant warned in 1956 that animals injected with his formulation developed terrible, incurable conditions: allergic aspermatogenesis (stoppage of sperm production), experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (the animal version of MS), allergic neuritis (inflammation of the nerves that can lead to paralysis) and other severe autoimmune disorders. (6)
Adjuvants can break “tolerance”, meaning they can disable the immune system to the degree that it loses its ability to distinguish what is “self” from what is foreign. Normally, the immune system ignores the constituents of one’s own body. Immunologists call this “tolerance”. But if something happens to break “tolerance”, then the immune system turns relentlessly self-destructive, attacking the body it is supposed to defend. (6)
Scientists theorize that oil based adjuvants have the ability to “hyperactivate” the immune system, and in doing so, create chaos by inducing such an extremely powerful response that the immune system literally goes haywire and starts attacking elements it would normally ignore. (6)
Another theory has to do with “specificity”. One of the great distinguishing characteristics of the immune system is something akin to a highly sensitive innate intelligence that has evolved over eons to be able to respond very precisely to what it deems to be a threat to the body. Because the body contains many types of oily molecules and lipids, it may be that when an oil is injected, the immune system responds to it not only specifically, but with heightened intensity because the oil adjuvant resembles so closely the natural oils found in the body. A “cross reaction” then happens, sending the immune system into chaos destroying any oils found anywhere in the body that resemble the adjuvant oil. Demyelinating diseases like multiple sclerosis are an example of this destructive autoimmune process. (6)
To deepen one’s understanding of the shadowy world of vaccine development, award winning investigative journalist Gary Matsumoto’s new book is a “must read.” It documents the secret human medical experimentation conducted on American citizens by doctors and scientists working for the U.S. military. It is a book about “betrayal of the most fundamental rules of medical ethics; and betrayal of the basic duty of military and civilian leaders to protect the people they govern.” Vaccine A: The Covert Government Experiment That’s Killing our Soldiers and Why GI’s are Only the First Victims, is a gripping read into the mad science world of the U.S. military’s biowarfare vaccine development program which, since 1987 has injected tens of thousands of U.S. troops with an experimental unlicensed anthrax vaccine containing squalene. An oil based adjuvant, squalene has been known for decades to cause severe autoimmune diseases in laboratory animals. Writes Matsumoto, “The unethical experiments detailed in this book are ongoing, with little prospect of being self-limiting because they have been shielded from scrutiny and public accountability by national security concerns.” Reading this book, one gets a permanent chill in the spine as we glimpse the “writing on the wall” of what is to come. (6,7)
“When UCLA Medical School’s Michael Whitehouse and Frances Beck injected squalene combined with other materials into rats and guinea pigs back in the 1970’s, few oils were more effective at causing the animal versions of arthritis and multiple sclerosis”, writes Matsumoto. In 1999, Dr. Johnny Lorentzen, an immunologist at Sweden’s Karolinska Institute proved that on injection, “otherwise benign molecules like squalene can stimulate a self-destructive immune response”, even though they occur naturally in the body. Other research institutes have also shown that the immune system makes antibodies to squalene, but only after it is injected (6) We now know that squalene, added to boost immune response in a formulation known as MF59, is the secret ingredient in certain lots of experimental anthrax vaccine that has caused devastating autoimmune diseases and death in countless Gulf War vets (Canadian, British and Australian troops were also injected with squalene laced vaccine), and continues to be used today. There is a “close match between the squalene-induced diseases in animals and those observed in humans injected with this oil: rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis and systemic lupus erythematosus”, writes Matsumoto. These three illnesses have been proven to be caused by this oil, but there is an additional long list of autoimmune diseases associated with squalene injection into humans. (6) “There are now data in more than two dozen peer-reviewed scientific papers, from ten different laboratories in the U.S., Europe, Asia and Australia, documenting that squalene-based adjuvants can induce autoimmune diseases in animals..observed in mice, rats, guinea pigs and rabbits. Sweden’s Karolinska Institute has demonstrated that squalene alone can induce the animal version of rheumatoid arthritis. The Polish Academy of Sciences has shown that in animals, squalene alone can produce catastrophic injury to the nervous system and the brain. The University of Florida Medical School has shown that in animals, squalene alone can induce production of antibodies specifically associated with systemic lupus erythematosus”, writes Matsumoto. (6)
Long List of Side Effects Referring to squalene in her extensive article on adjuvants, Dr. Scheibner writes, “This adjuvant contributed to the cascade of reactions called “Gulf War syndrome”, documented in the soldiers involved in the Gulf War. The symptoms they developed included arthritis, fibromyalgia, lymphadenopathy, rashes, photosensitive rashes, malar rashes, chronic fatigue, chronic headaches, abnormal body hair loss, non-healing skin lesions, aphthous ulcers, dizziness, weakness, memory loss, seizures, mood changes, neuropsychiatric problems, anti-thyroid effects, anemia, elevated ESR (erythrocyte sedimentation rate), systemic lupus erythematosus, multiple sclerosis, ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis) also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease, Raynaud’s phenomenon, Sjorgren’s syndrome, chronic diarrhea, night sweats and low-grade fevers. (1)
Matsumoto punctuates his book with poignant interviews of military personnel who suffered many of these extreme and devastating syndromes, all of whom tested positive for anti-squalene antibodies which has become THE definitive marker for people who have been injected with this adjuvant and who have gone on to develop catastrophic diseases.
Immunologist, Dr. Pamela Asa was the first person to recognize that the autoimmune diseases she was seeing in military personnel mirrored those in experimental animals injected with oil formulated adjuvants. When she met a patient with similar autoimmune symptoms who had participated in an experimental herpes vaccine trial, who also knew he had been injected with MF59, a squalene adjuvant being used as a ‘placebo’ in that study, everything began to fall into place. Pam Asa contacted Dr. Robert Garry, a leading virologist at Tulane University Medical School, whose specialty is developing antibody tests and asked him to develop a test for the detection of anti-squalene antibodies – a test that ultimately became the most important forensic and diagnostic tool identifying patients whose autoimmune diseases followed injection with squalene laced anthrax vaccine. (6)
Juxtaposed to heart wrenching testimonies of shattered health and ruined lives is the military’s defiant stonewall and denial that a squalene laced anthrax vaccine was injected into thousands of its people without their informed consent – this despite the fact that the FDA and independent researchers have tested and identified varying amounts of squalene in specific lots of the vaccine.
Even more stunning is the fact that by 1997, hundreds of millions of dollars had already been spent testing vaccines formulated with squalene adjuvants by leading research institutes like NIH (National Institutes of Health) who tested its efficacy in HIV vaccines, the National Cancer Institute who for nearly two decades conducted research with squalene-boosted vaccines, and the National Institutes of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) had been testing it in animals since 1988 and began human clinical trials in1991. Nineteen of NIAID’s 23 trials were for prototype HIV vaccines. Writes Matsumoto, ” Squalene adjuvants are a key ingredient in a whole new generation of vaccines intended for mass immunization around the globe.” (6)
Immune System Sees Squalene as an Enemy to Attack Researchers at Tulane Medical School and the Walter Reed Army Institute of Research “have both proven that the immune system responds specifically to the squalene molecule. Squalene’s pathway through the body has been tracked with a radioactive tracer in animals by none other than Chiron, (well known flu vaccine manufacturer) and maker of MF59, the squalene-based adjuvant, now also a component of FLUAD, an Italian influenza vaccine. (6)
The immune system does in fact “see” squalene and recognizes it as an oil molecule native to the body. The key is “route of administration”. As Gary Matsumoto says, “Squalene is not just a molecule found in a knee or elbow – it is found throughout the nervous system and the brain.” When it is injected into the body, the immune system sees it as an enemy to be attacked and eliminated.(6)
As any immunologist will tell you, the way an antigen encounters the immune system makes all the difference. You can eat squalene – no problem as it is an oil the body can easily digest. But studies in animals and humans show that injecting squalene will “galvanize the immune system into attacking it, which can produce a self-destructive cross reaction against the same molecule in the places where it occurs naturally in the body – and where it is critical to the health of the nervous system.” (6)
This phenomenon is also known as ‘molecular mimicry’, where the immune system forms antibodies against one of its own structures and will continue to attack the ‘self’ molecule in the body that resembles the one in the germ, or as is the case with squalene, an identical substance that is naturally present in the body. Once this self-destructive process begins, it never stops as the body continues to make the molecule the immune system is now trained to attack.
Another example involving autoimmune ‘molecular mimicry’ is when the immune system has been sensitized to attack myelin, the insulating fatty coating around nerve fibers which insures the smooth relay of nerve signals. The body would continue to make myelin in order to replenish and repair the protective sheath around its nerve endings. But says Matsumoto, “In the act of doing so, the body immunizes itself against itself, administering over and over again what amounts to a booster dose of something that the immune system now wants to get rid of. This vital constituent (myelin) is now the enemy, and the immune system is now programmed to obliterate it in an endless loop of self-destruction” – the process involved in MS (multiple sclerosis), and ALS (Lou Gehrig’s disease).(6)
Tying molecular mimicry to the autism epidemic, many children have regressed into autism spectrum disorders after injection with the triple live virus MMR (measles,mumps,rubella) vaccine. Dr.Vijendra Singh’s research at Utah State University suggests that auto-antibodies are attacking myelin in these children. He has shown that many autistic children have auto-antibodies to brain myelin basic protein (MBP) as well as elevated levels of measles virus antibodies. “Immunoblotting analysis showed the presence of an unusual MMR antibody in 60% (75 of 125) of autistic children, but none of the 92 normal children had this antibody. In addition, there was a positive correlation (greater than 90%) between MMR antibody and MBP auto-antibody, suggesting a causal association between MMR and brain autoimmunity in autism. This is one of the most important findings in autism to date, which prompted us to link measles virus in the etiology of the disorder”, writes Dr. Singh. (8,9,10)
Immunologist Dr. Bonnie Dunbar has also done extensive research on the mechanisms of injury inflicted by hepatitis B vaccine and has observed similar autoimmune processes involving molecular mimicry in people who developed devastating neuroimmune syndromes after injection with this vaccine. (11)
Molecular Mimicry as a Bio-Weapon Matsumoto reports that Soviet bioweaponeers used the principal of molecular mimicry in the 1980’s to engineer a ‘designer disease’ that would attack myelin. By splicing a fragment of myelin basic protein into legionella bacterium, they created what amounted to a living “nano-bomb”, which they injected into guinea pigs. What they found was that the immune system quickly cleared the legionella bacterium, but the myelin molecule, smuggled in by this microbial “Trojan horse” initiated a second wave of disease which caused experimental allergic encephalomyelitis, the animal version of MS. The Soviets recognized this creation for what it was – a biological time bomb!! (6)
“Squalene is a kind of trigger for the real biological weapon: the immune system. When the immune system’s full repertoire of cells and antibodies start attacking the tissues they are supposed to protect, the results can be catastrophic,” writes Matsumoto. His assessment is seconded by Dr. Pam Asa – “Oil adjuvants are the most insidious chemical weapon ever devised.” (6)
“Molecular mimicry, seen for its diabolical potential as a weapon by the Soviets as far back as the 1980’s, also applies to squalene. But the real problem with using squalene, of course, is not that it mimics a molecule found in the body; it is the same molecule,” writes Matsumoto. “So what American scientists conceived as a vaccine booster was another “nano-bomb”, instigating chronic, unpredictable and debilitating disease. When the NIH (National Institutes of Health) argued that squalene would be safe because it is native to the body, just the opposite was true. Squalene’s natural presence in the body made it one of the most dangerous molecules ever injected into man!” (6)
The main proponents for the use of squalene in vaccines have been the U.S Department of Defense and the NIH. The anti-squalene antibodies in sick American and British military personnel are evidence that military experimentation has caused an unprecedented health catastrophe in tens of thousands of people onto whom the vaccine was forced and who were denied the right to make an informed decision based on existing scientific knowledge of the dangers of injecting squalene. “By adding squalene to their new anthrax vaccine, they did not make a better vaccine, they made a biological weapon.” (6) .
Why , one would obviously ask, would anyone knowingly inject such a dangerous substance into humans? Certainly in terms of the U.S. military’s decision, they chose to turn a blind eye to the existing science, which for decades had documented the immune destructive properties of squalene. They justified its use because they knew they had a weak and ineffective vaccine which needed a serious boost. In the face of weaponized biowarfare agents like anthrax already developed by Russia and fear that it was also possessed by Iraq, they were desperate to increase the vaccine’s effectiveness as they launched into the first Gulf War. Additionally, explains Matsumoto, “scientists in the United States are now literally invested in squalene. Army scientists who developed the second generation anthrax vaccine have reputations to protect and licensing fees to reap for the army..[and] .worldwide rights to develop and commercialize the new recombinant vaccine for anthrax.” (6)
He goes on to explain, “the National Institutes of Health (NIH) has been supporting both animal and human research with squalene since the 1980’s. Squalene has become perhaps the most ubiquitous oil adjuvant on the planet, which is something that should concern everyone. Many of the cutting edge vaccines currently in development by the NIH and its corporate partners contain squalene in one formulation or another. There is squalene in the prototype recombinant vaccines for HIV, malaria, herpes, influenza, cytomegalovirus and human papillomavirus. Some of these prototypes like HIV, malaria and influenza are intended for mass immunization around the globe.” (6)
Squalene Adjuvants Enter the Global Market FLUAD, the squalene boosted flu vaccine has been licensed in Italy since 1997. It contains MF59, the squalene adjuvant made by Chiron. Although all the published papers co-authored by Chiron-employed scientists and Italian researchers have reported MF59 to be safe, Gary Matsumoto suggests a flaw in study designs may “prevent researchers from seeing the vaccine’s real risks.” Testing of FLUAD was limited to elderly people in nursing homes – average age was 71.5 which would tend to obscure autoimmune problems that might arise for a number of reasons. If autoimmune symptoms like joint pain and fatigue did occur in geriatric Italians, doctors might not connect these complaints to anything but old age. (6)
“Autoimmunity is notorious for taking years to diagnose because the early symptoms (e.g. headaches, joint and muscle pain and fatigue) are so vague; primary care physicians often fail to recognize it…a large Phase lV trial did not even bother to analyze the “common-post immunization reactions” in study participants, recording only those adverse events severe enough to require a doctor’s visit within 7 days of immunization.” In another study patients were observed for 180 days, but only serious events like “admission to hospital or death” qualified as a reaction – nothing else was recorded. Symptoms of adverse reactions listed in the FLUAD package insert are almost identical to the Air Force case-definition for Gulf War Syndrome, and include rashes, malaise, fever, myalgia, arthralgia, weakness, sweating and various autoimmune reactions and neurologic disturbances. (6)
“The question is whether scientists working for pharmaceutical companies are intentionally designing studies so as to miss adverse reactions that inconvenience their marketing strategy?” asks Matsumoto. “Chiron’s conclusion about squalene’s safety are at odds with recent data from studies in both animals and humans.” (6)
Just in from the newslists on February 9, 2005 is an item informing of the European “debut” of a new adjuvant approved for use in a new high-potency hepatitis B vaccine. Fendrix, the new enhanced hepB vaccine is being launched by pharma giant GlaxoSmithKline for use in people with poor immune responses (like dialysis patients) and those at high risk for developing hepatitis B. It is formulated with a new adjuvant that can “significantly improve the effectiveness of immunizations.” AS04, the ‘proprietary’ adjuvant based on MPL, originally developed by U.S. company Corixa, “increases the immune potency of the new vaccine, allowing two dose administration rather than three. It has been shown clinically to be more effective than alum, the most widely used adjuvant in vaccines.” (12)
So what exactly is this new high potency adjuvant? We’re told by the press release that MPL (AS04), is a “derivative of the lipid A molecule found in Gram-negative bacteria, is extracted from bacterial cell walls and is one of the most potent regulators of the immune response, used by the body to alert itself to bacterial infections.”(12) Full name of the lipid is monophosphoryl lipid A (MPL)
This news should put everyone on high alert because guess what? Lipids are oils/fatty acids and according to Matsumoto, MPL is identified in declassified documents as one of two squalene emulsions used in the Army’s new “recombinant protective antigen anthrax vaccine (rPA) which the FDA, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the Department of Defense fast-tracked into clinical trials in1998. The other squalene adjuvant they used was Chiron’s MF59. (6)
It appears that Fendrix is only the first of a whole new generation of “enhanced potency” vaccines coming down the pipeline using the new high potency lipid adjuvant, MPL. “The adjuvant is also being used in a number of GSK’s developmental vaccines, including one that could be the first effective vaccine for malaria”, says the article. MPL (AS04) adjuvant is also a component of GSK Bio’s genital herpes vaccine, as well as a component in their cervical cancer vaccine and a new tuberculosis vaccine.” (12)
In the unraveling of the squalene story, we find that a squalene emulsion first known as Triple Mix (based on Freund’s adjuvant) was later given the commercial name “Ribi”. Triple Mix (renamed Ribi) was tested by Dutch scientists on rabbits who found it caused “severe effects the largest number and most severe lesions when compared with the other adjuvants.”(6) Then in June 1999, Ribi ImmunoChem its manufacturer was acquired by Corixa Corporation for $56.3 million, who presumably also own the Ribi formulation. Whether MPL(AS04) is a formula related to Ribi is undoubtedly “proprietary” information, but from Matsumoto’s reseasrch, we know they are all squalene based. And it doesn’t end there. MPL, Corixa’s multi-million dollar baby, is slated for inclusion not only in the “enhanced potency” vaccines already mentioned, but will also be a strategic component of new allergy and autoimmune vaccines in development. (13)
From their inception, mass vaccinations have acted as a biological weapon, undermining health, manipulating and crippling the immune system, and instigating cycles of new and debilitating diseases. Monopoly medicine’s solution? Inject us with more powerful, genetically engineered high potency vaccines. Never mind they are seeding us with “nano-bombs” that will further attack our already compromised immune systems.
The concept of stimulating a hyperactive immune response by using oil-based adjuvants has clearly backfired since we now know that the stronger the antigenic response, the more damaging the adjuvant itself is to the normal functioning of the brain and nervous system. The precedent for mass medical experimentation via an ever increasing recommended vaccine schedule has been set. We can now predict the grim future of mankind: an epidemic of neurological disorders and autoimmune diseases never before imagined.
Notes & Resources
Adjuvants listed by Scheibner: “Today the most common adjuvants for human use are aluminum hydroxide, aluminum phosphate and calcium phosphate. However, there are a number of other adjuvants based on oil emulsions, products from bacteria (their synthetic derivatives as well as liposomes) or gram-negative bacteria, endotoxins, cholesterol, fatty acids, aliphatic amines, paraffinic and vegetable oils. Recently, monophosphoryl lipid A, ISCOMs with Quil-A, and Syntex adjuvant formulations (SAFs) containing the threonyl derivative or muramyl dipeptide have been under consideration for use in human vaccines
*Definition of Antigen (Scheibner): “Micro-organisms, either bacteria or viruses, thought to be causing certain infectious diseases and which the vaccine is supposed to prevent. These are whole-cell proteins or just the broken-cell protein envelopes, and are called antigens”

Today there was a treat and a terror in my email box: a new article from William Engdahl. A treat, because William Engdahl is one of my heroes. I do not know whether to admire him most as a writer who researches or a researcher who writes. Looked at either way, however, he is an honest and fearless man whose works tell us what we need to know – and what the self-anointed elite does not want us to know. And they do so with passion, clarity but without the faintest hint of panic or hysteria.
A terror because of the subject: mercury and aluminum in our babies and our own bodies through the mechanism of vaccination. You have heard it before: mercury and aluminum are neurotoxins. The restatement of this information in the context of a clear and focused historical and scientific review of just what we are talking about when we talk about mercury, aluminum and autism. It must be read and shared.
There are a few more facts which help to frame the cataclysmic disaster called “Vaccine Injury”, which is by no means limited to children. Think for a moment of healthy young men and women in coma, developing demyelinating neurological disorders like MS, ALS (now seen in children and adolescents for the first time in history as a new disease called “Juvenile ALS, but only in girls and women who have received Gardasil), diabetes, encephalitis, meningitis, persistent and debilitating rashes, swollen, painful joints everywhere in the body, brain fog, memory loss, depression, loss of IQ, lupus and other auto immune disorders, Alzheimer’s Disease, etc.
They Would Have Died Anyway
Let’s start with the origins of Thimerisol, which is 49.6% mercury by weight. Mercury is more toxic by far to tissues, including the brain, than lead.
It was patented by Eli Lilly, a so called “ethical” drug company (so named because they sell patented medicines) in the 1920s. In 1930, it was administered IV to 22 meningococcal meningitis patients, all of whom were in coma. All 22 patients died.
Eli Lilly, an “ethical” drug company, concluded that Thimerisol was safe because although all patients died, none showed any adverse response to the injected Thimerisol since they WOULD HAVE DIED FROM OTHER CAUSES ANYWAY. Therefore, none died from Thimerisol and it was deemed to be safe. When the FDA was founded, this information was presented to it and accepted. Thimerisol was grandfathered into use. The FDA, always compliant to the desires of industry, bought the insane logic of the “ethical” drug company, to the endless tragedy of our children, our elders and ourselves. This horrific substance is added to our vaccines as a “preservative”.
As a simple side thought, if vaccine manufacturing were strictly clean and sterile, not careless, contaminated and dirty, why would a preservative be necessary? Thimerosal was subsequently introduced for use in vaccines and in over the counter remedies as a preservative to kill bacteria in the product without any additional safety testing of any kind since it had been “grandfathered”. The 1930 study, in which every patient died, remains the only safety testing done on the substance even after being in use for over 84 years.
Aluminum is added to vaccines in order to irritate the immune system and increase the production of antibodies which are ASSUMED to be associated with immune competence with respect to the disease entity on which the vaccine is focused. No compelling (or even non-compelling) scientific evidence exists which demonstrates that this type of antibody production is associated with protection from the disease. In fact, virtually every epidemic in modern times has occurred in fully vaccinated populations.
Aluminum is neurotoxic and is strongly associated with the epidemic of a previously unknown type of dementia which will impact more than half of those who reach the age of 80: Alzheimer’s Disease.
When combined with fluoride, also added to many vaccines, the two toxic metals are strongly synergistic, increasing the neurotoxicity of the other substance by many times, creating a much higher level of impact than either one alone could produce. Since nearly everyone in the US drinks fluoridated water and brushes their teeth with fluoride-containing toothpaste, even without added injected fluoride, the synergistic potential is both untested and very frightening.
These metals are not the only toxins found in vaccines, but they are, individually and in combination, enough to create the public health and private home tragedies which can be laid directly at the feet of Big Pharma and criminal regulators.
Please disseminate this blog as widely as possible with full attribution AND with the Action Items above: they are vital to our ability to stay unvaccinated, all of us, with the new and much deadlier Swine Flu vaccines. Safety testing, if you can call it that, will not be completed until July of 2010. Yet the WHO and FDA (CDC is part of FDA) are rushing to vaccinate our precious children, pregnant women and the chronically ill with a vaccine containing aluminum, mercury AND a million times more squalene than the wildly toxic anthrax Vaccine A which caused the horrific, and frequently lethal, Gulf War Syndrome in hundreds of thousands of Gulf War vets and is still causing the same damage in our soldiers now.
Despite that, the Department of Defense, Governor after Governor and employer after employer are making these untested vaccines mandatory even while the President and Secretary Sebelius of Health and Human Services intone solemnly that vaccinations will be “voluntary”, defining “voluntary” as one option of a pair of options which offer you the unsafe, untested, unnecessary and uninsurable vaccine, all liability for which both the government and the manufacturers have been relieve of in a convenient legislative and regulatory pirouette. The other option is involuntary internment or incarceration, as the public documents from Iowa, Florida, North Carolina and other states makes clear is already being prepared for you. Indeed, “vaccine refusers” in Massachusetts may, under a pending law, be liable to fines of $1000 per day for refusing to be vaccinated AND jailed for up to 30 days [Per day of refusal? For all days of refusal? – REL]
So, indeed, “it IS the Vaccines, Stupid!” as William Engdahl tells the FDA, the media and the rest of the deaf establishment.

It’s The Vaccines Stupid!”
F. William Engdahl
Global Research
September 6, 2009
Part I: Evidence Linking Autism Rise in Children to Vaccinations
The WHO and US Government CDC are escalating a public psychological
conditioning to create hysteria and panic among an uninformed public about an
alleged “virus” H1N1 Influenza A, aka Swine Flu, whose alleged effects to
date appear comparable with a common cold. Before people line up in the
streets demanding their vaccinations for their children and themselves, it
would be wise to remember, to paraphrase a 1992 campaign statement of Bill
Clinton to George H.W. Bush: “It’s the vaccination, Stupid!”
By countless scientific accounts, far more dangerous to human health than any
reported incidences of Swine Flu are the dangers of severe health issues
including paralysis, brain damage and even death arising from what is added to
vaccines by virtually every major vaccine maker. Almost without exception, all
commercial vaccines today contain various substances known as adjuvants
designed to make the vaccine “work.” These adjuvants are the source of
horrendous and sometimes deadly damage.
It has been speculated for some time that there might be a link in the
alarming rise in cases of autism among tiny infants and children and massive
multiple vaccinations today given routinely to infants and children from the
first hours of birth. There is clear and
shocking evidence of the link between the two. If you do not have a strong
constitution, you are advised not to read further.
A new study shows a direct link between standard childhood vaccination series,
MMR, and autism-like symptoms in monkeys. The principal scientist involved in
the study, Dr. Laura Hewitson of the University of Pittsburgh, presented the
alarming conclusions as an abstract pending publication at the International
Meeting for Autism Research. It has been presented at scientific conferences
in both London and Seattle, USA.
The study compared vaccinated macaque monkeys with non-vaccinated macaques. No
major flaws in the study have been revealed by any attending scientist. The
vaccines included the popular MMR series. The study found a marked increase in
“gastrointestinal tissue gene expression” and “inflammation issues”
with those monkeys which received vaccinations. They are a common symptom of
children with regressive autism.
The study also found marked behavior changes and development differences in
those monkeys given the vaccines versus those who were not. “Compared with
unexposed animals, significant neuro-developmental deficits were evident for
exposed animals in survival reflexes, tests of color discrimination and
reversal, and learning sets,” the study`s authors reported. “Differences
in behaviors were observed between exposed and unexposed animals and within
the exposed group before and after MMR vaccination.”
US Government-mandated research approved by Congress was t
o begin this year, but the funds were rescinded in early January. Claiming
“conflict of interest” because of ongoing court cases, the Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), a long-time supporter of infant
vaccinations, withdrew the research plans.
The most shocking of all is the recent and now common medical practice,
reinforced by an aggressive pharmaceutical industry, of giving multiple
vaccines, often virtually within hours of birth, to infants despite the fact
that no study including all of the vaccine series commonly given to children
in the US and UK, about 30 in all, has been conducted until now. The practice
of newborn multiple vaccinations has become widespread in Germany and other EU countries over the past decade. Significantly there have surfaced reports of dramatically increased instances of autism in newborn and infants in various German hospitals over the past decade, precisely the period multiple
vaccinations of newborn and infants has become routine.
US Government coverup
Tragically, the US Government agency theoretically entrusted with guarding
public health, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), as with the case of
health dangers of GMO foods, as well with the dramatic evidence of the link
between autism and adjuvants used in typical vaccines, is accepting the
argument of big and politically powerful Pharmaceutical companies.
The Food and Drug Administration considers vaccines safe but, just as with
GMO, they have done no studies into the effects of multiple vaccinations as given in the common childhood series which started in the 1990s in
the USA and spread to the UK and now across the EU.
According to Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., son of the late Attorney General and an
attorney active in campaigning to expose mercury (Thimerosal) and other
toxicity dangers in vaccines, recently stated, “as autism is a behavioral
affliction rather than a precisely defined biological injury —
epidemiological studies are critical to establishing its causation. But the
greatest source of epidemiological data is the Vaccine Safety Datalink (VSD)
— the government maintained medical records of hundreds of thousands of
vaccinated children — which Health and Human Services Department has gone to great lengths to keep out of the hands of plaintiffs’ attorneys and
independent scientists…The raw data collected in the VSD would undoubtedly
provide the epidemiological evidence needed to understand the relationship
between vaccines and autism. The absence of such studies makes it easy for
judges to say to plaintiffs they have not met
their burden of proving causation.”
Autism was virtually unknown in the United States until 1943 when it was
diagnosed and identified eleven months after Thimerosal, a mercury-based
vaccine “adjuvant” was first added to baby vaccines along with various
aluminum compounds in the United States. Thimerosal is often used to stem
fungi and bacterial growth in vaccines despite massive evidence of its severe
effects as a potent neurotoxin. Following independent studies, Russia, Japan, Austria, Denmark, Sweden and Britain have banned Thimerisol from children’s vaccines. Germany to date has no such ban. The toxin was developed in 1930 by Eli Lilly. Tragically in 1991, despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary the US Government’s Center for Disease Control (CDC), the same agency fueling the current hysteria over the non-proven H1N1 Swine Flu virus danger, recommended that infants be injected with a series of mercury-containing vaccines in some cases within 24 hours of birth for Hepatitis B and two months for diphtheria-tetanus- pertussis.
Before 1989 US pre-school children received eleven vaccinations— polio,
diphtheria-tetanus- pertussis, measles-mumps- rubella (MMR). By 1999, because of the various CDC recommendations, the number of vaccinations was twenty two before first grade of school. Parallel with this explosive rise in
vaccinations of the very young in the United States, according to Kennedy, the
rate of autism among children. The state of Iowa reported a 700% increase in
autism in children beginning in the 1990’s and along with California has
banned mercury in vaccines. Despite evidence, however the US FDA continues to allow drug makers to include Thimerosal in numerous over-the-counter
non-prescription medications as well as steroids and injected collagen. The US
Government ships vaccines preserved with Thimerosal to numerous developing
countries as well, where some are reporting sudden explosion of autism rates
as well. In China,20where autism was unknown before introduction of Thimerosal by US drug makers in 1999, press reports indicate there are almost two million autistic children.
Instances of autism in the US exploded as some 40 million children were
injected during the 1990’s with Thimerisol-based vaccines, giving them
unprecedented accumulations of mercury poison. The level of ethylmercury in a
vaccine routinely given then to children of two months age was 99 times
greater than the US Government’s daily limit for exposure. As with the
current WHO pandemic declaration around H1N1 Swine Flu, the CDC Vaccine
Advisory Committee is filled with scientists with close ties to the
pharmaceutical industry. Dr. Sam Katz, chairman of the committee was a paid
consultant to most companies producing the vaccines he “recommended.”
The aluminum danger remains
While vaccines available in the US today exist with no Thimerosal (50%
mercury), virtually all vaccines still contain aluminum, which has been linked
to impaired neurological development in children. Aluminum has not replaced
thimerosal as a vaccine preservative; it has always been used in vaccines.
In the recent past, most US children got exposed to both thimerosal and
aluminum simultaneously with the hepatitis B, Hib, DTaP (diphtheria, tetanus
and pertussis) and pneumococcal vaccines. Combining mercury with aluminum
increases the likelihood that the mercury will damage human tissue.
According to a recent report by Michael Wagnitz, an American chemist, “Currently eight childhood vaccines that contain aluminum ranging from 125 to 850micrograms (mcg). These vaccines are administered 17 times in the first 18months of life, an almost six-fold increase compared to the vaccine schedule
of the 1980s.”
Wagnitz adds, “According to the American Society for Parenteral and Enteral
Nutrition, based on IV feeding solutions, a child should not exceed a maximum
daily dose of 5 mcg of aluminum per kilogram of weight per day. That means if
a child weighs 11 pounds, the child should not exceed 25 mcg in a day. This
level was determined to be the maximum safety limit based on a study publishedin the New England Journal of Medicine titled “Aluminum Neurotoxicity in Preterm Infants Receiving Intravenous Feeding Solutions.”
The hepatitis B vaccine, administered at birth, contains 250 mcg.
In a 1996 policy statement, “Aluminum Toxicity in Infants and Children,”
the American Academy of Pediatrics states, “Aluminum can cause neurological
harm. People with kidney disease who build up bloodstream levels of aluminum
greater than 100 mcg per liter are at risk of toxicity. The toxic threshold of
aluminum in the bloodstream may be lower than 100 mcg per liter.” What level
of aluminium toxicity is contained in vaccines routinely given German, French
and other children n the EU is not known. It might be time for a public demand
for such information to be disclosed, and before governments launch mass
vaccination campaigns for untested vaccines against a non-proven H1N1 Swine Flu threat.

Time for Health Freedom Silly Season to End
Silly Season Science is the product of shameless intellectual prostitution in which science for hire pumps out whatever it is told to produce. A prime example from the supposedly reputable British paper, The Guardian:
“Healthy Eating Can be Sign of Serious Psychological Disorder”
http://www.guardian.co.uk/society/2009/aug/16/orthorexia-mental-health-eating-disorder
Health Freedom Silly Season has to end, now. You see, Health Freedom organizations are notorious for NOT working together. You know, this one says this, and the other one says that and pretty soon you don’t care “who struck John” and you are sick of all the gore! That’s one of the classic disinformation techniques and juvenile people are easily stimulated to behave like tantrum-ing toddlers. You have noticed that the Natural Solutions Foundation does not waste its time, or yours, with that kind of sniping and in-fighting. Instead, we focus on the problems, find solutions and tell you what we think is going on, asking for your help.
But when the folks that like to call themselves part of the Health Freedom movement behave that way, it means they are notoriously shooting themselves in the foot. Since they are supposed to be working for you, that also means they are not doing their job protecting your interests. If they had been, perhaps we would not be in this mess and perhaps General Bert and I would still be running our drug-free practice of medicine.
This issue, mandatory/unapproved vaccination, is really the ultimate litmus test: either the other “Health Freedom” organizations actually get on board and join us in protecting your rights to stop this dangerous – possibly lethal – FDA idiocy or they are, in fact, NOT health freedom anythings.
High Road To Survival
You see, once again, as we continue to do, the Natural Solutions Foundation is offering the hand of literally life-saving collaboration to any and all other health freedom organizations and advocates. Those who join us are welcome, no matter how inappropriate or inflammatory their previous bad behavior and disinformation activities have been. This is literally a matter of YOUR life and death.
Those who do not join us are making who they are, and who they work for, clear by marginalizing themselves.
Please contact the health freedom organizations of your choice to urge them in the strongest terms to get on board with this powerful initiative. If they resist, ask them to explain, in writing, why they are not taking this opportunity to work for your health and freedom, and that of the other supporters/members of the group. Insist on real reasons for their inaction, not merely unsupported assertions and, if they cannot provide them, walk away. They are not on your side. They just proved it.
On the other hand, smart non-governmental organizations are happy to cooperate to make sure Health Freedom can survive. For example, we’ve just accepted DownSize DCs invitation to join its coalition partners in www.ConsumerCenteredHealthcare.org to “Stop current efforts to expand government control of health care – Roll back existing government involvement and restore free market competition” No matter what healthcare system exists, we want it to a system that allows people the freedom to make their own choices… and a politician and bureaucrat dominated system cannot do that! Whoever pays for it, your health care choices should be, must be, determined solely by you.
Real Health Freedom Leaders:
Koren, Laibow, Null…
Three leading health freedom advocate organizations banded together this week and, under the guidance of Ralph Fucetola, JD, Natural Solutions Foundation’s brilliant and skillful Counsel and Trustee, submitted a Citizens Petition (unlike an Internet Petition, a Citizens Petition is a powerful legal challenge which can have real impact on Policy) to the FDA demanding redress from the immanent harm posed by approval of attenuated and adjuvanted live virus vaccines for a trivial disease when not one of the vaccines have been tested for safety. You will recall that on July 23, 2009 the Fraud and Death Administration said that they will approve these vaccines in the absence of completed safety tests.
Remember, the pediatric tests of the vaccine now underway are to determine antibody response levels (dosage), NOT safety. And the vaccines being tested are NOT those with adjuvants.
The Health Freedom movement has been divided by disinformation and ego-based squabbles for decades. Enough. The issues are too important to let absurd accusations and personal turf struggles interfere any longer.
Health advocates, officials and doctors, along with and health freedom leaders, have all known for quite some time that the enormously profitable Swine Flu Vaccines are a vast windfall for Big Pharma and a horrific dangers for the rest of us.
The New York State Association of Nurses refused New York State’s Mandatory Vaccination regulation for mandatory health care worker vaccination without any provision for exemptions of any kind.
http://www.nysna.org/publications/newyorknurse/jul_aug/flu_shots.htm
In the UK, where the Daily Mail leaked two letters from their Health Protection Agency and a leading neurologist urging other neurologists to be on the lookout for an anticipated 800% rise in the incidence of Guillian Barre Syndrome, also known as Polio, following the upcoming MANDATORY Swine Flu vaccinations there. http://dailyexpress.co.uk/posts/view/120936/Alert-on-killer-side-effect-of-the-swine-flu-vaccine-/, nurses are so uneasy about the mandatory Swine Flu vaccine’s dangers, and the non-seriousness of the “Pandemic” disease, that 2/3 say they will either refuse the Swine Flu vaccine outright or are unsure that they will submit to it. In fact, only 1 nurse in 7 receives the seasonal flu vaccine in the UK anyway. Skepticism runs high among people in the know!

Legal Legs and Limps

Quite a number of legal actions have been filed in response to these dangers. Some are good, some are marginal and some make no sense at all. Click here,
http://drrimatruthreports.com/?p=3170
for a look at the good, the bad and the just plain meaningless.
The Citizens Petition which we have filed with the FDA is, we believe, a highly effective way to exhaust our legal remedies so that we can rapidly and effectively move forward. We need your help, though. Your organizations and you (and your family, friends, contacts, etc.) all are invited to join the Petition and exercise your First Amendment Right for redress of grievances via a Petition to the Government.

Six for the Cemetery?
All 6 Swine Flu vaccines which the FDA has announced it will approve BEFORE the completion of any safety testing are unsafe. Some or all will have squalene-based adjuvants. Some or all will have live attenuated virus (LAIV) vaccines which have been shown to
* Increase hospitalizations of children for all causes by 300%
* Cause wheezing and asthma,
* Communicate the vaccine disease to those with health problems and weak immune systems
* Add new bits of other viruses in the warm, wet, nutrient rich environment of a cell
BUT
* They provide little or any real or lasting immunity against the target disease.
Oil in water adjuvants such as sqalene or its related compounds have never been approved for injection in the US and, in fact, have been rejected by the FDA itself because they were “too dangerous to test in the United States”. Tragically, they were used against our own military creating the cataclysmic auto immune disorder known as “Gulf War Syndrome”.
Health Without Freedom?
Let’s make an incorrect assumption for a moment, just for the sake of argument. let’s assume that untested LAIV vaccines with deadly adjuvants were safe and effective. Even if they worked and were safe, is it OK with you to force your kids and you, too, to be vaccinated at someone else’s choice? I think not and I am quite certain that you think not, too.
Health freedom IS our first freedom and making this type of decision for ourselves IS the hall mark of freedom. Take each of these Action Steps once for each member of your family, then alert all your contact to do the same to help keep health freedom free – and help keep yourself alive!

Freedom to Stay Alive?

Justice Antonin Scalia
“Innocence Is No Reason Not To Execute”
I will bet that you thought that the Constitution of These United States gave you the right to a fair trial along with life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, didn’t you? And you thought that innocence was a defense before the bar, didn’t you.
Well, Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia thinks differently – very differently. Justice Scalia recently wrote that that there is nothing inherently un-constitutional about executing an innocent person.
In his dissenting opinion in the appeal of convicted – but innocent – felon Troy Anthony Davis, Justice Antonin Scalia took his Supreme Court colleagues to task for thinking that mere innocence is grounds to overturn a conviction: “This Court has never held that the Constitution forbids the execution of a convicted defendant who has had a full and fair trial but is later able to convince a habeas court that he is “actually” innocent. Quite to the contrary, we have repeatedly left that question unresolved, while expressing considerable doubt that any claim based on alleged “actual innocence” is constitutionally cognizable.”
http://thinkprogress.org/2009/08/17/scalia-actual-innocence/
Change You Can’t Conceive Of…
You do not have to be a lawyer to understand that the very atoms of the molecules of the thread of the fabric of the Constitution of These United States are being destroyed from within the so-called “Justice System”. If you think that your right to protect your body from dangerous pharmaceutical interventions will be protected by the Justice System as it is now, in light of this madness, think again.
With a Supreme Court of this type, we clearly want to impact the regulations BEFORE we ever get to the point of needing the Court’s help! To protect us all from the vaccines, we need to grab the legal system, which means, in this case, the FDA, by its metaphoric parts, and force it to protect us while we have access to it and can still control some of its actions. And for that, we need your help, in force. NOW!
Speaking of Rights, Does the US Have As Much Freedom of Speech as India? Apparently Not!
In the US, we like to think that our Constitutional system assures us of freedom of speech that we can rely upon, more than any other country.
In fact, however, the FDA imposes a profoundly un-American gag rule on what you can or cannot say – or learn – about the health benefits of food and food components and will put manufactures out of business if they tell you the truth about health freedom with legal methods or with their ax-wielding, gun-toting, dog-using goons called FDA Marshals.
Take Swine Flu (NOT the Swine Flu vaccine, of course – don’t take that!): The FDA has criminalized the discussion of ALL options to prevent, treat, mitigate or cure Swine flu except Swine Flu Vaccines and the [quite dangerous] anti viral drugs Tamiflu and Relenza.
http://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/h1n1flu/
But my friend in India, the noted Dr. Leo Rebello, notes that although doctors at Kasturba Hospital of Infectious Diseases in Mumbai (formerly Bombay) maintain, falsely, that they don’t know why a baby born to a mother who supposedly had Swine Flu [although tests for Swine Flu are wrong 90% of the time, so how could they tell?- REL], they do, in fact, know why the baby died: it died because its mother was given Tamiflu!
He states, “The adverse or side-effects of Tamiflu are – delirium, hallucination, delusion, disturbances in consciousness, abnormal behavior and convulsions. Allergic reaction including severe rash, nausea, dizziness are the common reactions. Children under 12 months and pregnant and nursing mothers and those who are allergic to oseltamivir phosphate – the main ingredient – or any other ingredients in Tamiflu should not be given Tamiflu. H1N1 is a bio-weapon and Tamiflu in combination is designed to control the population. We will have on hand another tragedy like Thalidomide if Tamiflu is given so recklessly.”
Dr. Rebello goes on, in what the FDA has previously announced would be criminal speech if, for example, I were to tell you this information,
“There are much better, safer and cheaper Flu medicines in Ayurveda and Homeopathy. Amla which contains the highest level of Vitamin C as also Mosambi (sweet lime) and Santra (orange) and simple Nimbu Pani bring immediate relief in Flu.
In Homeopathy, as I have already written :
We have Arsenic Album 200 — cold, running nose, cough and feverishness.
Gelsemium Sempervirens 200 — headache, cold, running nose, bodyache.
Eupatorium Perfollatum 200 — bone pain, bodyache.
Bellis Perennis 200 — muscle pain, bodyache.
Bryonia Alba 200 — cold, cough, fever, headache, giddiness.”
If I were to tell you in the USA, as I could in India, that Nano silver, www.Nutronix.com/naturalsolutions, is outstandingly effective in killing this virus (and all others against which it has been tested) and then point you to an article by Gordon Peterson, PH D, which states,
“Antibiotic Drugs:
Antibiotic drugs provide no solution against the virus but can be very beneficial for pneumonia that develops later. A broad spectrum antibiotic should be used because there are numerous bacteria that can produce pneumonia. According to a Penn State publication, silver sol can be given with the antibiotics and produce up to a tenfold increase in antibiotic activity.
Nutritional Supplements
There are hundreds of supplements that can be of significant benefit for the immune system and even some that claim to have antiviral activity. The best proven choices for nutritional supplements come in the form of immune stimulants and wellness products. These include: immunity Vit C, B complex, folic acid, vit D (prevention) ginseng, Echinacea, garlic, probiotics, expectorants and silver sol.
Air Filters:
CDC recommends one in every room. HEPA air filters use silver to inactivate viruses and can effectively kill 99% of all bacteria, and viruses in minutes.
Water Purifiers
Proper hygiene and a water purifier are recommended by the CDC because the influenza virus can survive 100 hours in water. Get one that has a silver filter that can actually destroy the virus. Carbon, filtration, reverse osmosis does not destroy or remove the virus.
Topical Disinfectants:
Topical disinfectants are recommended by the CDC for use between each patient and can kill germs for 4-6 hours. Patients and health care professionals should use these 4 times a day or as needed. Silver so gel demonstrates effectiveness against some of the worst pathogens including: MRSA, VRE, Strep, and the other bacteria that cause pneumonia.
Silver Sol: [Silver Solution, www.Nutronix.com/naturalsolutions – REL]
Prescription drugs and vaccines “treat” and [may -REL] help prevent viral infection and disease but are not capable of totally controlling a dangerous new or novel virus. Nutritional supplements such as Vitamins, Minerals, Echinacea, Ginseng, Probiotics and many others have the ability to help boost immune function and improve natural defenses which results in some defense against disease causing viruses and the associated secondary infections
Silver Sol provides proven prevention and treatment against viral and bacterial infections, while there is nothing else with such broad spectrum benefits. In addition, Silver Sol can be safely taken every day for prevention where it has been shown to provide protection against the very dangerous Bird flu H5N1.
The combination of antibiotics with Silver Sol has been shown to enhance antibiotic function by as much as ten fold due to the fact that Silver Sol kills the residual pathogens that the antibiotics cannot. Results of the combination of 19 different prescription antibiotics and silver sol demonstrate safe additive and/or synergistic benefits across 7 different pathogenic strains (Staphylococcus, MRSA, E coli, Pseudomonas arugenosa, Salmonella and Streptococcus). The results of this combination therapy result in significant pathogenic destruction while helping to reduce bacterial resistance (19). This can be attributed to the fact that Silver Sol does not produce resistance, nor does it destroy the beneficial intestinal probiotic bacteria.
Discussion:
…It is evident that the newly patented EPA certified and FDA approved Silver Sol technology provides tremendous treatment options for prevention and combination therapies. Silver Sol gel can help stop viral spread on the most contagious areas like hands, nose, mouth and skin. It is sufficiently documented and proven to be considered to be a first line of defense against Influenza and a significant companion to antiviral and antibacterial drug regimens topically and orally.”

Toxic Danger Alert! Warning: Graphic Images.
‘Agent Orange.’ ‘Dioxin.’ The very words bring a shudder of horror – horror for the damage to our troops and their offspring that Monsanto’s (and Dow Chemical’s) chemical weapons inflicted on Americans, horror for the ecological devastation that the herbicide/defoliant inflicted on the ecosystem of South East Asia, from which recovery is far from certain over the next thousand years, horror for the devastation brought to the Vietnamese people, both friend and foe, whose lives – and deaths – have been so hideously distorted by US weaponry… and horror for the decades of denial and whitewash imposed by the US Government about its prior knowledge of the devastating effects of dioxin on the living and the unborn, on the biosphere and on life for untold generations to come. This ‘Prior knowledge’ is the very definition of a crime against humanity. The world looks with horror at the horror wrought by the US in Viet Nam because of its use of Agent Orange. And now, the very people who, along with Dow Chemical) brought us this horror half a world away are bringing it all back home.
Agent Orange is a mixture of 2,4,5-T and 2,4-D, manufactured by Monsanto. Our Foundation President, General Bert, is a Viet Nam vet whose Agent Orange exposure there has given him cancer 3 separate times- 3 separate, unrelated cancers – while the US Government denied any connection to any ongoing or sustained damage from Agent Orange, while the Veteran’s Administration, the FDA and the US Congress denied what they knew and allowed untold suffering and death. Finally, decades later, after many of the Agent Orange-injured service men and women were dead, they were forced to acknowledge that there is a strong relationship between Agent Orange and cancer, birth defects and a host of other deadly and life-damaging disorders and conditions.
Of course, one of our strong supporters tells me that when her Viet Nam vet husband and she had a tragically deformed Agent Orange baby who died soon after birth, the US Government quietly offered them a few thousand dollars in “compensation” for the Agent Orange-related death of their child. So while denying the connection, the Government was paying off those who, unlike the service men themselves, could sue and bring this matter into an open court, thus establishing their prior knowledge.


This kind of behavior for Monsanto is nothing new. It appears that companies like Monsanto have been poisoning the planet for quite a long time. According to Monsanto Watch Factsheet, http://www.monsantowatch.org/index.php?page=none –
“The world’s center of PCB manufacturing was Monsanto’s plant on the outskirts of East St. Louis, Illinois, which has the highest rate of fetal death and immature births in the state. By 1982, nearby Times Beach, Missouri, was found to be so thoroughly contaminated with dioxin, a by-product of PCB manufacturing, that the government ordered it evacuated. Dioxins are endocrine and immune system disruptors, cause congenital birth defects, reproductive and developmental problems, and increase the incidence of cancer, heart disease and diabetes in laboratory animals.”
Stay With Me Here…
First, we need to talk about Nano Silver, the safest and most powerful anti-pathogen agent I have ever encountered. Nano Silver was approved by the EPA as a surface cleaner for hospitals, spas, restaurants, barber and beauty shops, daycare centers, etc., on the basis of its extraordinary effectiveness (killing every pathogen against which it was tired, whether bacterial, viral, mycoplasma, parasite or otherwise) and its total lack of toxic impact on the environment. Silver has a long and honorable history as a health aid since it is safe, effective, requires no storage and is really cheap compared to drugs, which are both dangerous and expensive. For that reason, the Natural Solutions Foundation recommends that you stock up on this “Swiss Army Knife for Your Medicine Chest”(TM) with the Nano silver product in which I place the most trust, Silver Biotics by American Biological Laboratories. This extraordinary product, which anyone can take, regardless of other health concerns or medications they are using – and which will NOT turn your skin blue!!! – is available at www.Nutronix.com/naturalsolutions.
Of course, BECAUSE it is safe, effective and puts no money into the coffers of its Big Pharma masters, the FDA has been on a silver rampage for decades, attempting over and over to ban this healthful substance when it was only available as ionic silver or colloidal silver which are good, but not as reliable or predictable as Nano silver because particle size varies widely and effectiveness depends on particle size.
Apparently, someone in FDA-land realized that Nano silver had been approved as safe and effective over in EPA-land and decided to do something about it. The FDA, which allows healthy infants to be experimented upon with known carcinogenic, nerve-damaging agents called “Pesticides” (as in the CHAMP “studies” in Duval County, FL) does not want anyone to have access to non-drug options for anything. In this they are the Drug Cartel’s enforcement thugs…
In fact, the health freedom headlines this week included the FDA’s recent action to seize and destroy, and/or bring criminal charges against any product/company which claimed to either prevent or treat Swine Flu, whether or not such claims were true! (See http://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/h1n1flu/ – REL) The only options the FDA says we are permitted have in order to manage the so-called “Swine Flu Pandemic,” which causes a disease which is so trivial that according to what I must believe is a rather red-faced CDC and WHO, the disease rarely causes symptoms and when it does, virtually never requires medical attention or hospitalization are listed below. (By the way, the FDA has unwittingly given us a nice list of products we should support!)
In fact, there is no conclusive evidence to make it clear that anyone at all, anywhere in the world has ever died from Swine Flu. They might -or might not – have died WITH Swine Flu, but there is nothing to suggest than anyone has died FROM Swine Flu. This just goes, by the way, to show how very primitive our understanding of the human immune system is since several efforts, including SARS and the intentionally weaponized Avian Flu virus, have been made and failed abysmally to create a working Pandemic.
See our break-though White Paper on the Right to Self-Quarantine and Self-Shielding for a review of some of the attempts we believe have been made recently to weaponize both the flu and to weaponize the flu vaccine to trigger the pandemic that WHO and CDC tell us is “inevitable.” http://drrimatruthreports.com/?p=2752
This time, as with SARS and the Avian Flu (the useless vaccine for which was stockpiled around the world to the tune of many billions of dollars in the US alone while Tamiflu(R) was stockpiled too and is now expiring. In fact, in the UK the shelf life of their stock of this useless and dangerous drug was extended by 1 year by an Act of Parliament so, as my grandmother would have said, “It shouldn’t be a total loss”.
The Swine Flu Pandemic, anticipated and much-hyped, did not occur, but the Pandemic Response is proceeding just as surely as if the bioengineered Swine Flu had taken off successfully and was killing huge numbers of people.
CDC and WHO made no efforts to contain the disease, saying that travel restrictions were not needed, but sneezing into your sleeve was a life-saving measure. Say what?
So our Fraud and Death Agency‘s ONLY approved methods of dealing with the Swine Flu are:
1. Swine Flu vaccines which are untested, unsafe and unnecessary. They are being rushed into production and approval without testing. They contain mercury. They contain squalene, a deadly adjuvant (immune irritant) when injected. They contain other adjuvants whose identify is a “trade secret” and they contain other materials whose identify is also unknown. They are, literally, an uninsurable risk.
Yet the Secretary of Health and Human Services, FDA’s parent agency, says that we will start vaccination programs with every child in the US (there will be no exemptions – none, under the current Federal and State laws, by the way) and then “Sit back and observe. We hope there are not too many adverse events.” Of course, Secretary Sebelius does not make clear what is the number that would constitute “too many adverse events.” We at Natural Solutions say, “None!” and we know that the Declaration of Helsinki of the World Medical Association agrees with us.
2. Tamiflu and other “FDA approved drugs. Tamiflu, whose ownership includes not only Donald Rumsfeld, as is well known, but apparently every other top player in the US political world, all the way, it is said, to the White House, is a dangerous drug which has been around for quite some time looking for a reason to exist since it is a poor anti-virals with a significant toxic profile. However, it was stock piled in the billions of dollars during the failed weaponized virus pandemic event called “Avian Flu” despite the fact that it was known early on that 98% of the Avian Flu strains known were, according to the CDC, “resistant to Tamiflu”. There is no reason to think that other antivirals are either safer or more effective.
Back to Nano Silver For a Moment
In order to get safe and effective Nano silver off the market in advance of the anticipated and otherwise to-have-been-unstoppable Swine Flu Pandemic (this is our conclusion, according to our analysis: Please note that we have no documentation that the events we are discussing did, in fact, occur because of inter-agency pre-planning within the US Government, but it looks mighty suspicious to us) the EPA suddenly decided that it wanted accept a Big-Pharma inspired “citizens petition” to declare Nano silver a pesticide! Not only that, all equipment used in connection with the production of Nano silver was to be declared to be a pesticide, too.
If the illogic of that last sentence stopped you in your tracks, it means that you were awake and paying close attention because it is manifestly insane.
There was, however, so much push back (thank you, Mouse Warriors!) against this absurd and dangerous idea (dangerous to health AND to health freedom), that the matter was put off for a few years.
FDA, however, apparently realizing that its plans had been foiled, decided that it would take action and threaten every product which could provide either information in its material about how to prevent, or deal with the symptoms of the Swine Flu with either seizure and destruction (remember, FDA has special FDA Marshals equipped with dogs, guns, axes and, it would appear, the mentality of Nazi Brown Shirts) of products and factories or, if they did not submit to the FDA’s demand that they cease selling or advertising their products, criminal action against them.
Back to Agent Orange…
Monsanto is a drug, chemical and biotech company with a long and terrible history of contamination, toxic products and a wildly arrogant disregard for anything like public health or safety. The Monsanto Watch Project of the Center for Food Safety says,
“Monsanto, best know today for its agricultural biotechnology products, has a long and dirty history of polluting this country and others with some of the most toxic compounds known to humankind. From PCBs to Agent Orange to Roundup, we have many reasons to question the motives of this company that claims to be working to reduce environmental destruction and feed the world with its genetically engineered food crops….
In the 1970s, Monsanto began manufacturing the herbicide Roundup, which has been marketed as a [sic] safe, general-purpose herbicide for widespread commercial and consumer use, even though its key ingredient, glyphosate, is a highly toxic poison for animals and humans. In 1997, The New York State Attorney General took Monsanto to court and Monsanto was subsequently forced to stop claiming that Roundup is “biodegradable” and “environmentally friendly.”
Monsanto has been repeatedly fined and ruled against for, among many things, mislabeling containers of Roundup, failing to report health data to EPA, and chemical spills and improper chemical deposition. In 1995, Monsanto ranked fifth among U.S. corporations in EPA’s Toxic Release Inventory, having discharged 37 million pounds of toxic chemicals into the air, land, water and underground. “
http://www.monsantowatch.org/index.php?page=none
Dioxin and DDT are similar compounds which are in the dangerous class of “chlorinated hydrocarbons”. These organic chemical consist of a pair of benzene rings, hydrogen and and four chlorine atoms. Dioxin also contains an oxygen atom. DDT and dioxin share several characteristics:
* Both DDT and dioxin are toxic in small quantities.
* Neither of them degrades in the environment — they both exist indefinitely once released.
* Both dissolve and accumulate in fat.
How toxic is Dioxin?
“The toxicity of dioxin is something that the scientific community does not seem to agree upon. Dioxin became notorious in the 1980s because of Agent Orange and several dioxin dumps (like Love Canal) discovered in the United States. You will see many, many pages on the Web (such as this one) that describe dioxin as the most toxic substance on the planet. Then you will see other references like this one from Encyclopedia Britannica:
“Toxicologists [sic] mistakenly concluded from studies on laboratory animals that TCDD (dioxin) was one of the most toxic of all man-made substances… Subsequent research, however, discounted most of these inferences, which were based on the effects of very high doses of TCDD on guinea pigs and other peculiarly susceptible animals. Among humans, the only disease definitely found related to TCDD is chloracne, which develops shortly after exposure to the chemical.”
http://www.howstuffworks.com/question220.htm
To our analysis, dioxin is, in fact, a tremendously toxic compound which is found in significant concentrations in Roundup (c). In fact, Roundup’s principal ingredient, glyphosate, is often referred to as the second most toxic compound known in nature. If dioxin is the first, and glyphosate is the second, what are they doing on your food?
And, since dioxin is found in Roundup(c) and does not break down in nature, it certainly is in your food and your environment, your water and, sadly, your bodies. For example, dioxin contamination from 800 to 2000 times greater than permitted was recently found in Irish pork products and was traced to a feed from a feed plant there. Monsanto’s Roundup Ready (c) corn and soy are permitted in the EU for animal feed although GMO foods are banned for human consumption unless labeled clearly there.
Monsanto’s potential for damage is not limited to pesticides, of which they list 29 products approved for use in the US.
They make aspartame, having acquired the patent when they bought the Searle drug company. It is no surprise that aspartame, included in many vaccines, by the way, is viewed by Advanced Healthcare Researchers as a leading cause of MS, Lupus and other life threatening diseases, including cancer. Despite this evidence, which led the FDA to keep aspartame out of food and drink for 11 years, as soon as Donald Rumsfeld and Ronald Regan came into power, the old head of FDA was out in a flash and the first act of the next FDA head was to approve unlimited use of this toxic material.
Monsanto is the world’s leading owner of genetic patents and the world’s leading GMO seed producer. Most of their GMO seeds are modified to allow them to tolerate high doses – really, really high doses – of an herbicide called ‘Glyphosate’. According to toxicologists, exposure to Glyphosate is strongly associated with cancer, infertility, loss of pregnancies, birth defects, auto immune disorders (such as Lupus), neurological disorders and other serious adverse events up to, and including, death.
Glyphosate is marketed around the world as “Roundup” (R) and its seeds are marketed as “Roundup Ready” (R) soy, corn, potatoes, tomatoes, rice, strawberries, papaya, taro, coffee, etc. Roundup Ready(R) soy and corn are widely used as animal feed, which means that their deadly genetic materials and toxic load wind up in your cells and your baby’s if you are pregnant or feeding your children GMO foods.
Roundup (R) is an herbicide. It kills plants which have not been modified to accept it. The material which is sprayed on the plants kills agricultural workers, makes them infertile and creates a host of horrific diseases in them and their children, as well as people down wind or down river from them. In fact, as you look at your lush, bright, chemically contaminated GMO veggies and eat your 90% GMO modified diet (if you are eating prepared and conventional “food” that is) we rarely think of the fact that agricultural workers in what is sadly called “conventional agriculture” have astoundingly high cancer, infertility and birth defect rates.
Your Food, Your Weeds, Monsanto and Agent Orange.
Monsanto is facing super weeds and a marketing problem: Roundup (R) is no longer as “effective” as it used to be in killing off super weeds which have now acquired the genes from the pollen of the GMO seeds and are becoming Roundup (R) resistant. Not only that, but competitors are seeking to tear market share away from the originator of this particular poisoned plant system.
Monsanto probably pays some pretty good salaries, though, for some diabolically clever brain power. Their solution? Come up with new and improved versions of Roundup (R) which contains up to 70% Agent Orange. See: http://www.i-sis.org.uk/DMPGR.php
Of course, if that does not suit, Monsanto makes 29 herbicides licensed for use in the US. All of them appear to be toxic and all of them damage both the farmers and the consumers while doing serious, perhaps irreparable damage to the environment.
So while the FDA is busy banning and seizing those compounds which allow us to protect ourselves from the dangers of bio engineered or natural biological threats to our well being, they are simultaneously turning a blind eye to the contamination of our food, our world – and of us – by allowing the use of mixtures of compounds which are arguably the most dangerous non-radioactive toxic chemicals in the world. They turn a blind eye to the studies which show their dangers, but turn a very sharp and acute eye to the substances and information which give us choice and power to protect ourselves.
Working with EPA, EPA and USDA, they are clearly making their corporate friends, sponsors and benefactors very, very happy at the cost of what?
Cancer
Birth Defects
Pulmonary Disorders
Urological Disorders
Infertility
Diabetes
Still Born Babies
Life Threatening Skin Disorders
Immune System Suppression and Damage
OK. Back to the Swine Flu…
You can see from the partial list of the impact of damage caused by Agent Orange that the immune system is hit hard by exposure to it. So are the chromosomes (or you would not get birth defects and deformities. So allowing Roundup(C), which scientific studies show cause many of the same diseases and conditions, including infertility and birth defects AND causes significant damage to the environment (including massive damage to amphibians like frogs), we see that putting them together is a very, very good idea if your intention is to make sure that you have a very large, and very sick population. Couple that with the farm laws now being pushed through Congress which will institutionalize what has been informal before, the total degredation of the the US food supply and the criminalization, yes, criminalization of food production which does not conform to Codex requirements, even in your own back yard, and you see the link.
Now add a vaccine which has no real reason for existing except to make legally immune Big Pharma healthy, coffer-wise, and the rest of us sick, body-wise. Take away our natural remedies, which the FDA has been trying to do for years, leave us with only the dangerous Pig in a Poke, Swine Flu vaccine (by the way, click here, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xVGrudg6mQ8, to see my Rap video of the same name) and a dangerous drug option and you have a perfect recipe for disaster.
“Let the Culling Begin!”
There is, in short, no medical, logical reason for the Swine Flu vaccine, which will be made mandatory, if the WHO, CDC and White House are to be believed. There is no medical, logical reason for the Level 6 Swine Flu Pandemic Emergency which was declared by Dr. Chen of the WHO on July 11, 2009.
Unless, of course, you want to kill a whole lot of people with a weaponized vaccine. There is no medical, logical reason to begin the vaccination program on our most profound treasure, our children, and “HOPE there are not too many adverse reactions.” HOPE? Hope there are not too many adverse reactions, or hope that there are? What is the real meaning of that astonishing statement?
If there is no intention to let the culling begin, why else include provisions in BioShield, Patriot Acts I, II and III, and bull through the Emergency Medical Powers Acts in virtually every state giving both the Federal Government and the States the “right” to quarantine you indefinitely if you refuse the vaccine or drug offered to you in a Pandemic State? If that does not seem like a good idea to you, then click here, salsa.democracyinaction.org/o/568/campaign.jsp?campaign_KEY=27275, to demand your right to self-quarantine if vaccinations or involuntary incarceration is orders, as it well may be as soon as the first commercially available flu vaccine is ready. You can also click here, http://drrimatruthreports.com/?p=2752, to read our informative White Paper on Self Quarantine and THEN take the action step and forward it to everyone you know to ask them to do the same.
If no culling is anticipated, why else expend billions of dollars ($7.65B approved by the House of Representatives for Swine Flu vaccines and drugs last week alone) on a wildly dangerous, untested, unnecessary vaccine for a disease which WHO Director Chan admits causes no symptoms and requires no treatment? And why rush through legislation which industrializes the food supply of an entire country to the lowest agricultural, anti-health denominator? Well, perhaps because the World Health Organization says that to maintain a sustainable planet, we need to reduce the population by 90%. And perhaps, in your mind, you’re it.
And perhaps because the doctrine that depopulation must be the first priority of the United States Government’s Foreign Policy articulated so chillingly in NSA Memorandum 200 by Henry Kissinger in 1974 was adopted by the US Government but has never been repudiated?
And perhaps because the UN’s plans for long-term sustainability call for the same thing? Could that be?
Well, if not, please write to me at dr.laibow@gmail.com and tell me what else explains it.
It is time for us to take action to make sure that our food stays clean and stays in our control if we wish it to be there, that our health is not attacked by the cullers who see us as “Useless Eaters” who are consuming “their” non-renewable natural resources and that our freedom to chart our own health course is unimpeded by genocidal monsters or idiots.
Stay active, disseminate widely and stay free!

Say… An Ongoing War Crime
Agent Orange Continues to Poison Vietnam
By MARJORIE COHN
“From 1961 to 1971, the U.S. military sprayed Vietnam with Agent Orange, which contained large quantities of Dioxin, in order to defoliate the trees for military objectives. Dioxin is one of the most dangerous chemicals known to man. It has been recognized by the World Health Organization as a carcinogen (causes cancer) and by the American Academy of Medicine as a teratogen (causes birth defects).
“Between 2.5 and 4.8 million people were exposed to Agent Orange. 1.4 billion hectares of land and forest – approximately 12 percent of the land area of Vietnam – were sprayed.
“The Vietnamese who were exposed to the chemical have suffered from cancer, liver damage, pulmonary and heart diseases, defects to reproductive capacity, and skin and nervous disorders. Children and grandchildren of those exposed have severe physical deformities, mental and physical disabilities, diseases, and shortened life spans. The forests and jungles in large parts of southern Vietnam have been devastated and denuded. They may never grow back and if they do, it will take 50 to 200 years to regenerate. Animals that inhabited the forests and jungles have become extinct, disrupting the communities that depended on them. The rivers and underground water in some areas have also been contaminated. Erosion and desertification will change the environment, contributing to the warming of the planet and dislocation of crop and animal life.
“The U.S. government and the chemical companies knew that Agent Orange, when produced rapidly at high temperatures, would contain large quantities of Dioxin. Nevertheless, the chemical companies continued to produce it in this manner. The U.S. government and the chemical companies also knew that the Bionetics Study, commissioned by the government in 1963, showed that even low levels of Dioxin produced significant deformities in unborn offspring of laboratory animals. But they suppressed that study and continued to spray Vietnam with Agent Orange. It wasn’t until the study was leaked in 1969 that the spraying of Agent Orange was discontinued.
“U.S. soldiers who served in Vietnam have experienced similar illnesses. After they sued the chemical companies, including Dow and Monsanto, that manufactured and sold Agent Orange to the government, the case settled out of court for $180 million which gave few plaintiffs more than a few thousand dollars each. Later the U.S. veterans won a legislative victory for compensation for exposure to Agent Orange. They receive $1.52 billion per year in benefits.
“But when the Vietnamese victims of Agent Orange sued the chemical companies in federal court, U.S. District Judge Jack Weinstein dismissed the lawsuit, concluding that Agent Orange did not constitute a poison weapon prohibited by the Hague Convention of 1907. Weinstein had reportedly told the chemical companies when they settled the U.S. veterans’ suit that their liability was over and he was making good on his promise. His dismissal was affirmed by the Second Circuit Court of Appeals and the Supreme Court refused to hear the case. The chemical companies admitted in their filing in the Supreme Court that the harm alleged by the victims was foreseeable although not intended. How can something that is foreseeable be unintended?
“On May 15 and 16 of this year, the International Peoples’ Tribunal of Conscience in Support of the Vietnamese Victims of Agent Orange convened in Paris and heard testimony from 27 victims, witnesses and scientific experts. Seven people from three continents served as judges of the Tribunal, which was sponsored by the International Association of Democratic Lawyers (IADL).
“Testimony given by the witnesses showed the following:
“Mai Giang Vu, a member of the Army of South Vietnam, carried barrels of the chemicals on his back. His two sons could not walk or function normally, their limbs gradually “curled up” and they could only crawl. They died at the ages of 23 and 25.
“Pham The Minh, whose parents also served in the South Vietnamese Army, showed the Tribunal his severely deformed, crooked, skinny legs; he has great difficulty walking, as well as digestive and pulmonary diseases.
“To Nga Tran is a French Vietnamese who worked as a journalist during the spraying. Her daughter weighed 6.6 pounds at the age of three months. Her skin began shredding and she could not bear to have skin contact or simple demonstrations of love. She died at 17 months, weighing 6.6 pounds. Ms. To described a woman who gave birth to a “ball” with no human form. Many children are born without brains; others make inhuman sounds.
“Rosemarie Hohn Mizo is the widow of George Mizo, who served in the U.S. Army in Vietnam in 1967. He slept on contaminated ground and consumed food and drink that were also contaminated. George refused to serve after he was wounded for the third time; he was court-martialed and sentenced to 2-1/2 years in prison and a dishonorable discharge. George helped found the Friendship Village where Vietnamese victims live in a supportive environment. He died from conditions related to his exposure to Agent Orange.
“Georges Doussin, co-founder of the Friendship Village, visited a dormitory where he saw 50 highly deformed “monsters,” who produced inhuman sounds. One man whose parent had been exposed to Agent Orange had four toes on each foot. Doussin said Agent Orange creates “total anarchy in evolution.”
“Dr. Nguyen Thi Ngoc Phuong, from Tu Du Hospital in Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon), sees many children born without arms and/or legs, without heads or faces, and without a brain chamber. According to the World Health Organization, only 1 – 4 parts per trillion (PPT) of Dioxin in breast milk can cause severe deformities in fetuses and even death. But up to 1450 PPT are found in maternal milk in Vietnam.
“Dr. Jeanne Stellman, who wrote the seminal article about Agent Orange in the magazine Nature, testified that “this is the largest unstudied environmental disaster in the world (except for natural disasters).”
“Dr. Jean Grassman, from Brooklyn College at City University of New York, testified that Dioxin is a potent cellular disregulator which alters a variety of pathways to disrupt many systems. Children, she said, are very sensitive to Dioxin; the intrauterine or post natal exposure to Dioxin may result in altered immune, neurobehavioral, and hormonal functioning. Women pass their exposure to their children both in utero and through the excretion of Dioxin in breast milk.
“Many ecosystems have been destroyed and Dioxin continues to poison Vietnam, especially in the several “hot spots.”
“Chemist Dr. Pierre Vermeulin testified that it was estimated that $1 billion would be required to restore one hectare of land in Vietnam. The cost of caring for the victims, many of whom need 24-hour care, is enormous.
“In 1973, President Richard Nixon promised $3.25 billion in reconstruction aid to Vietnam “without any preconditions.” That aid was never granted.
“There are only 11 Friendship Villages in Vietnam; 1000 are needed to care for the child victims of Agent Orange.
“Last week, the Bureau of the IADL, meeting in Hanoi, presented President Nguyen Minh Triet of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam with the final decision of the Tribunal. The judges found the U.S. government and the chemical companies guilty of war crimes, crimes against humanity, and ecocide during the illegal U.S. war of aggression in Vietnam. We recommended that the Agent Orange Commission be established in Vietnam to assess the damages suffered by the people and destruction of the environment, and that the U.S. government and the chemical companies provide compensation for the damage and destruction.
“I told the President that it always struck me that even as U.S. bombs were dropping on the people of Vietnam, they always distinguished between the American government and the American people. The President responded, ‘We fought the forces of aggression but we always reserved our love for the people of America . . . because we knew they always supported us.’
“An estimated 3 million Vietnamese people were killed in the war, which also claimed 58,000 American lives. For many other Vietnamese and U.S. veterans and their families, the war continues to take its toll.
“Several treaties the United States has ratified require an effective remedy for violations of human rights. It is time to make good on Nixon’s promise and remedy the terrible wrong the U.S. government perpetrated on the people of Vietnam. Congress must pass legislation to compensate the Vietnamese victims of Agent Orange as it did for the U.S. Vietnam veteran victims.
“Our government must know that it cannot continue to use weapons that target and harm civilians. Indeed, the U.S. military is using depleted uranium in Iraq and Afghanistan, which will poison those countries for incalculable decades.”
