Bioweapons: Lyme Disease, Weaponized Ticks
Bioweapons: Lyme Disease, Weaponized Ticks By Makia Freeman Region: USA Global Research, August 03, 2019 Theme: Biotechnology and GMO, Science and Medicine Bioweapons, specifically Lyme Disease and bioweaponized ticks, were in the news recently when US Congressman Chris Smith (R-NJ) introducedAmendment 116-19 which was subsequently passed by the US House of Congress on July 11th, 2019. The US House ordered an investigation to determine whether the DoD (Department of Defense) experimented with ticks and other insects between 1950 and 1975 to createbioweapons (biological weapons). Smith, who has a long history of bringing awareness to Lyme Disease, said he was inspired to pursue the matter after reading a book by Kris Newby entitled Bitten: The Secret History of Lyme Disease and Biological Weapons published this year. The fact of the matter is that the US Government and Military have a long history of experimentation with bioweapons, some of which has caused fatal consequences. It is time for the truth to come out. What is Lyme Disease? Lyme Disease is named after the small US town of Lyme (Old Lyme), Connecticut. In 1950, a mysterious disease first broke out in Lyme which defied textbook descriptions and which was characterized by strange symptoms, making it very hard to diagnose. Lyme Disease has multiple symptoms including muscle aches, joint pain, fever, chills, impaired memory and facial paralysis. If bad cases, it can lead to arthritis, nervous system disorders, heart problems and death. The most common disease spread by ticks is Lyme Disease. The CDC estimates over 300,000 people are diagnosed with the disease each year. -
Information-Seeking Behavior in Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM): an Online Survey of Faculty at a Health Sciences Campus*
Information-seeking behavior in complementary and alternative medicine (CAM): an online survey of faculty at a health sciences campus* By David J. Owen, M.L.S., Ph.D. [email protected] Education Coordinator, Basic Sciences Min-Lin E. Fang, M.L.I.S. [email protected] Information Services Librarian Kalmanovitz Library and Center for Knowledge Management University of California, San Francisco San Francisco, California 94143-0840 Background: The amount of reliable information available for complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) is limited, and few authoritative resources are available. Objective: The objective is to investigate the information-seeking behavior of health professionals seeking CAM information. Methods: Data were gathered using a Web-based questionnaire made available to health sciences faculty af®liated with the University of California, San Francisco. Results: The areas of greatest interest were herbal medicine (67%), relaxation exercises (53%), and acupuncture (52%). About half the respondents perceived their CAM searches as being only partially successful. Eighty-two percent rated MEDLINE as a useful resource, 46% personal contacts with colleagues, 46% the Web, 40% journals, and 20% textbooks. Books and databases most frequently cited as useful had information about herbs. The largest group of respondents was in internal medicine (26%), though 15% identi®ed their specialties as psychiatry, psychology, behavioral medicine, or addiction medicine. There was no correlation between specialty and patterns of information- seeking behavior. Sixty-six percent expressed an interest in learning more about CAM resources. Conclusions: Health professionals are frequently unable to locate the CAM information they need, and the majority have little knowledge of existing CAM resources, relying instead on MEDLINE. -

Unsound Methods of Cancer Treatment
UNSOUND METHODS OF CANCER TREATMENT. Gregory A. Curt, M.D. Division of Cancer Treatment, National Cancer Institute, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, Maryland 20892 1. "Things are seldom what they seem, skim milk masquerades as cream. Gilbert and Sullivan, "HMS Pinafore" DEFINITION AND MAGNITIJDE OF THE PROBLEM Earlier editions of .. Cancer: Principles and Practice of Oncology" entitled this chapter "Unproven Methods of Cancer Treatment." However, the term "unproven" is nonjudgmental and is, at best, a euphemism for the unsound therapies that are described in this chapter. After all, many of the newer methods of cancer treatment described in the previous chapter are, in some sense, "unproven" in that their precise role in clinical treatment remains uncertain. The distinguishing characteristics of unsound methods of cancer treatment (whether one wishes to label them unproven, unorthodox, nontraditional, or alternative therapies) are:. 1) promotion without sufficient preclinical data to justify use in patients, and 2) unmethodical treatment of patients that is incapable of detecting either meaningful responses or therapy-related side effects. Not surprisingly, purveyors of unsound methods generally offer "non-toxic" or "natural" approaches to cancer treatment. Somewhat surprisingly, and as will be discussed in greater detail later, these unorthodox practitioners are largely physicians who escape regulatory control by the Food and Dru g Administration and offer their particular treatment ap proach to well-educated patients with early-stage disease. At a time when 50% of the serious cancers diagnosed in the United States are curable with existing therapies and access to scientifically sound ex perimental trials has been considerably simplified with computerized 2. -

Biological Warfare and the National Security State
Biological Warfare and the National Security State A Chronology By Tom Burghardt Region: Canada Global Research, August 09, 2009 Theme: Militarization and WMD, Police Antifascist Calling... 9 August 2009 State & Civil Rights The history of bioweapons research in the United States is a history of illicit–and illegal–human experiments. From the Cold War to the War on Terror, successive American administrations have turned a blind eye on dubious research rightly characterized as having “a little of the Buchenwald touch.” While the phrase may have come from the files of the Atomic Energy Commission as Pulitzer prize-winning journalist Eileen Welsome revealed in her 1999 book, The Plutonium Files, an investigation into secret American medical experiments at the dawn of the nuclear age, it is as relevant today as the United States pours billions of dollars into work on some of the most dangerous pathogens known to exist in nature. That Cold War securocrats were more than a little concerned with a comparison to unethical Nazi experiments is hardly surprising. After all, with the defeat of the Axis powers came the triumphalist myth-making that America had fought a “good war” and had liberated humanity from the scourge of fascist barbarism. Never mind that many of America’s leading corporations, from General Motors to IBM and from Standard Oil to Chase National Bank, were sympathizers and active collaborators with the Third Reich prior to and even during World War II, as documented by investigative journalists Charles Higham in Trading With The Enemy, and Edwin Black in IBM and the Holocaust. -
To All Asa Comm Unit Vets
Page 1 of 14 TO ALL ASA COMM UNIT VETS TRIVIA QUESTIONS: What does Dachsbau mean in English? What was the name of the park where Dachsbau was located? Dachsbau was just off what street? What was Dachsbau used for by the German army in WWll? THE DAY DACHSBAU BURNED TRIVIA ANSWERS: Badger's Den, Grueneburg Park, and August - Siebert Strasse. Dachsbau was used as a mess hall by the Germany army during WWll (per Joe Tovarek). The German army leased the I.G. Farben building in 1940 for office space and used Dachsbau for dining. I'm presuming it was for enlisted personnel and that the building directly behind the Farben building (the Officers' Club) was for officers. Grueneburg Park is said to have been used to hold Allied POWs as one website states or for war refugees as Joe tells me. Page 2 of 14 Did you know that Dachsbau, the ASA Frankfurt Communication Center, had a major fire on December 8, 1971 that led to its closure? I didn't until I started this project. I was on the phone with Ray Anfang when he brought up the subject of the fire. It was the first I had heard of it and it led me down a curious and interesting path. Ray was an MOS 345 Crypto Maintenance & Repair SP5 and a Duty NCO at Dachsbau. He later transferred to ASAE S3 at the Farben Building where he was promoted to SSgt. He spent thirty years in the army with an incredible list of duty sites including Viet Nam, Iran, Presidio of San Francisco, Vint Hill and TDY trips all around the world inspecting crypto facilities. -
Key Legislative Points Pertaining to the Licensing and Regulation of Practitioners of Naturopathic Medicine in North America
Key legislative points pertaining to the licensing and regulation of practitioners of naturopathic medicine in North America January 2018 Britt Marie Hermes, ND (ret.) [email protected] Let me get straight to the point: Naturopathic education is rich in pseudoscience and fake medicine, and it is devoid of legitimate medical training. Naturopaths are not trained in the rigors of medical science, and this leads to a severe lack of competency and a huge risk of patient harm. NDs seem nice and charismatic, but they do not posses medial competency, especially to prescribe drugs. I organized this letter into sections of eight key points that illustrate why legislatures and physicians should worry that naturopaths want to be licensed to practice a “distinct form of primary health care.”1 (Note: I refer to naturopathic doctors as naturopaths for convenience.) KEY POINT #1: Naturopaths graduating from Bastyr University receive 561 hours in “primary care” training, but which is not real primary care medicine. Naturopathic clinical training takes place in a naturopathic teaching clinic, which is an outpatient clinic that caters to a small subset of typically healthy patients. No clinical training takes place in a hospital setting, like it does for medical providers. Clinical training at naturopathic teaching clinics encompasses the diagnosis and treatment of fake medical conditions, such as adrenal fatigue and systemic yeast overgrowth.2,3 Typical naturopathic treatments include supplement and diet based “detox” programs, energy medicine like homeopathy, hydrotherapy like colon irrigation, botanical medicines, intravenous injections of vitamins, and very little conventional medicine.4,5 In other words, naturopaths are trained to treat the “worried well.” Based on how I, and my colleagues, earned our naturopathic degrees from Bastyr University, I can attest that naturopathic graduates tend to exaggerate or miscalculate their training hours. -
The Rockefeller Syndicate by Eustace Mullins
The Rockefeller Syndicate by Eustace Mullins. The Rockefeller Syndicate Excerpted from the book Murder by Injection by Eustace Mullins. [back] Chapter 10 Many American conservatives believe as a matter of faith that the Rockefellers and the Council on Foreign Relations exercise absolute control over the government and the people of United States . This thesis can be accepted as a working formula if one remains conscious of the larger issues . Two writers for whom the present writer has great respect, Dr. Emanuel Josephson and Morris Bealle, insisted on focusing on the Rockefellers and excluding all other aspects of the World Order . This severely limited the effect of their otherwise ground breaking work on the Medical Monopoly. This writer advanced a contrary view in "The World Order," fixing upon the Rothschild monetary power, which reached a point of world control by 1885, and its London policy group, the Royal Institute of International Affairs, as the policy makers for what has essentially been since 1900, re-established colonial government in the United States. The colonial, or occupation, government, functions primarily through the Council on Foreign Relations, but only as the subsidiary of RIIA and through the Rockefeller Foundation which controls government functions, the educational establishments, the media, the religions and the state legislatures. It is true that the American colonials have "free elections," in which they have the absolute right to vote for one of two opposing candidates, both of whom have been handpicked and financed by the Rockefeller syndicate. This touching evidence of "democracy" serves to convince most Americana that we are indeed a free people.
