Once a year, like clockwork, the latest "flu" virus appears.
|
|
Like with AIDS having its mysterious origins in "deepest, darkest
|
|
Africa," the vague sense is that the yearly influenza virus comes
|
|
from a mysterious faraway land: Asia.
|
|
My parents always heed the warnings each year to "get your
|
|
flu shot." So, a month or two back they went through the yearly
|
|
flu-shot ritual. I visited them shortly thereafter. A few days
|
|
later, by an interesting "coincidence," I was one of the first to
|
|
suffer the latest edition of influenza.
|
|
What if. What if our perceptions are bass-ackwards on the
|
|
annual flu season? What if the initial introduction of the virus
|
|
into the population occurs via the innoculations given to ward
|
|
off the virus, and from *there* the disease is spread?
|
|
Sound far-fetched? The medical industry has gotten it wrong
|
|
before, for example with Beriberi. Beriberi is a fatal illness
|
|
caused by lack of vitamin B1. In the 1880s, a Japanese doctor
|
|
named Kanehiro Takaki discovered that Beriberi could be cured and
|
|
prevented through proper nutrition. He published the results of
|
|
his research in Lancet, a British medical journal.
|
|
Unfortunately, writes Dr. Peter Duesberg in his book, *Inventing
|
|
the AIDS Virus*, "Instead of acknowledging poor nutrition as the
|
|
cause of beriberi, the scientific community wantonly disregarded
|
|
it. The report had arrived during the height of the
|
|
bacteria-hunting craze... and microbe hunters were eager to find
|
|
new germs."

|
|
Chosen unanimously to chair the House Government Reform and
|
|
Oversight Committee is Rep. Dan Burton (R, Ind.). According to
|
|
the Washington Times (National Weekly Edition, 12/8/96), Rep.
|
|
Burton has a reputation as one who "goes for the jugular."
|
|
Congressman Burton has expressed strong doubts regarding the
|
|
official version of Vince Foster's death. For example, in the
|
|
Congressional Record of August 2, 1994 (Vol. 140, No. 104) he
|
|
states, in part...
|
|
|
|
Mr. Speaker, over the past several weeks there has been a
|
|
lot of questions about the death of Vince Foster and the
|
|
connection of his death to the Whitewater investigation,
|
|
and I have had nine people on my staff at the Republican
|
|
Study Committee and my personal staff and some outside
|
|
sources investigating this, because the Committee on
|
|
Banking, Finance, and Urban Affairs here in the House that
|
|
is doing the Whitewater investigation on a party line vote
|
|
has limited the scope of the investigation to such a degree
|
|
that one Member said that if the same principles had been
|
|
applied to the O.J. Simpson case, the one thing you could
|
|
ask O.J. Simpson is "How was your trip to Chicago?" You
|
|
couldn't ask any other questions. That is how limited the
|
|
investigation is. There is a deliberate attempt to
|
|
minimize the investigation and, I think, to cover up a lot
|
|
of the facts.

In CN 9.76, Sherman Skolnick mentions the death of a Commerce
|
|
Department employee. Some readers may not have heard about this
|
|
previously. Here are excerpts from Associated Press, 11/30/96
|
|
("Commerce Department Employee Found Dead in Office")....
|
|
|
|
WASHINGTON (AP) - A Commerce Department employee was found
|
|
dead in her fourth-floor office at the agency's downtown
|
|
headquarters on Friday.
|
|
The body was discovered around 7:45 a.m. by a co-worker
|
|
arriving for work, police said.
|
|
The woman was identified as Barbara Alice Wise, 48, of
|
|
Gambrills, Md. She had worked as a secretary for 14 years
|
|
at the department's International Trade Administration.
|
|
A preliminary autopsy was unable to determine the cause
|
|
of death Friday.

I received the following e-mail recently, regarding Livingstone
|
|
Fagan, one of the few survivors of the Branch Davidian Massacre
|
|
near Waco, Texas, April 19, 1993. (For more on that massacre,
|
|
see *The Davidian Massacre* by Carol Moore, ISBN 1-880692-22-8,
|
|
and *The Ashes of Waco* by Dick J. Reavis, ISBN 0-684-81132-4)
|
|
|
|
Just a few hours ago Carol Moore allowed me to transcribe
|
|
the following crucial details excerpted from Livingston's
|
|
letter dated 09/28/96:
|
|
|
|
.... the scars and bruises from threats and physical
|
|
assaults sustained since my arrival June 20th '96,
|
|
all of which I received at the hands of prison
|
|
officers. Last Thursday was the worst yet. After
|
|
continuously slamming my head against a concrete,
|
|
then metal structure, followed by my body against a
|
|
concrete floor (the stated purpose being to get me to
|
|
fear him), this 300 lb officer then verbalized his
|
|
intent to kill me for my not cowering to his will.
|
|
|
|
Ordinarily the above would be considered attempted
|
|
murder. In here it seems to be the norm -- The
|
|
inquisition continues. I had tended not to report
|
|
these incidents, not wanting to appear as though I'm
|
|
whining. I am not. This is only for informational
|
|
purposes. It is not uncommon for people to be killed
|
|
in these institutions and it be reported as self-
|
|
inflicted. In the event of my premature death, I
|
|
think it prudent that there be someone independent
|
|
who is aware of the preceding.....thus averting such
|
|
fabrication.

|
The Rev. Chiniquy material (see CN 9.75) really got some people
|
|
to howling. One reader was so blinded by fury he erroneously
|
|
supposed that Jack Chick, mentioned as a source for obtaining
|
|
Chiniquy's book, was the actual author. He wrote in part,
|
|
|
|
Jack Chick describes convents that never existed, priests
|
|
that were never ordained, and public meetings that never
|
|
took place. For examples, refer to:

|
Finally, news is a funny business: some days slow, some days
|
|
busy. When it's slow, I like to go to the University of Illinois
|
|
library and dig for items there. Right now, though, it's
|
|
end-of-semester madness at U of I. So, for the moment, U of I as
|
|
a resource is more or less extremely occupied with harried
|
|
students rushing to finish papers. That means resources are not
|
|
as easily available as normally.
|
|
What this means is, a "dry spell" may occur with CN for the
|
|
next few weeks; less to report for awhile. But, when the news
|
|
breaks out, Conspiracy Nation breaks in.
