SECRET BACTERIOLOGICAL WAR AGAINST BLACKS?
SECRET BACTERIOLOGICAL WAR AGAINST BLACKS?
How is it that during the 400 year period of the African slave trade, 1460s-1860s, neither AIDS/HIV, nor the Ebola viruses, had ever appeared either in the Americas or in Europe ; nor anywhere in the Muslim world; but that both now have appeared in the 20th and 21st century in Africa in the wake of African 'independence?'
Forgive my suspicious cynicism, but I am more inclined to believe in the malevolence of man, than in the randomness of nature with respect to the present series of pandemics.
Which man?
I suspect that the associates of certain American white men, who secretly experimented on ignorant and illiterate black men in a Veterans Administration Hospital, in Tuskegee, Alabama, where they were injected with syphilis without their knowledge or consent--and without giving them cures!
These same physicians, nurses, and technicians were also in professional privity with those who medically experimented on uneducated black women's gynecology, without their knowledge or consent, and who are and were, in league together, confidential confederates, so to speak.
I pray that I am wrong. I pray that these suspicions are unfounded! But, history is often a grim predictor; the past is often prologue. And the largest arsenal of bacteriological agents in the world are housed in the United States of America, accessible to favored government contractors, who are paid to carry out certain secret tasks respecting this arsenal.
The common European ailments, like measles, smallpox, influenza, others, which decimated the native Americans, did not destroy the stronger Africans. In fact, the Africans were thought and alleged by Dr. Benjamin Rush, America's leading physician, to be immune to smallpox in Philadelphia Pennsylvania, in 1793, where they were also promised freedom and equality, yet again--as they had been in the Revolutionary War--in exchange for their indispensable services grave-diggers, nurses, laundresses, caregivers to the thousands of besotted whites of that-then plagued, Capitol city. Members of the African Methodist Episcopal Church, in particular, performed yeomen work, from which the so-called "Founding Fathers," Washington, Jefferson et. al., fled!
These equality promises were not kept, of course, even after the city was saved though many Africans, not-inoculated in Africa, also died.
Stronger more lethal viruses were needed for these remarkable people, who were invulnerable to slavery, diseases, oppression, deceit, and brutality. In short, experimentation was needed to understand more perfectly this peculiarly powerful African morphology and histology.
Into the labs they went, during World War II, with government contracts, pharmaceutical dollars, scholastic covering, and racist, reactionary public policy expressed politically, economically, socially, legally, educationally and penologically. They went to work on those pre-planned societal rejects--black drug users and criminals with their array of infectious, and "curing" regimes.
Soon, there was HIV/AIDS, others and now Ebola.
I hope and pray that I am wrong in this assessment. In fact, I desperately want to be wrong, rather than to believe that bacteriological warfare is now being purposely waged on black people by certain American white people in secret!
Let the inquiries begin in earnest!
