ATS: Nobel Laureate, Wangari Maathai, Claims AIDS an Engineered Disease, page 1

Wangari Maathai, the first African woman Nobel Peace Price winner, repeated her claims that the AIDS virus is an engineered biologic agent. The African continent experiences nearly two-thirds of global deaths associated with the AIDS virus (according to UNIADS estimates).

In Kenya, Maathai has been classified as subversive and the target of government violence. The first environmental campaigner to be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize, has always claimed that "things like AIDS don"t come from the moon."

While I don't agree with her assessment - I understand it. She has seen a plague overtake her continent and is helpless to do a thing about it.

As an ecologist I would have thought she would make the connection between deforestation and emerging diseases. Look at the increase in frequency of Ebola and other outbreaks over the last 20 years. The best thing about Ebola is that it burns itself out rather quickly where HIV stews over years. This in itself gave HIV the time to establish a foothold in humans.

Here's a few sources.



Source 1

Cold War Propaganda: Some theorists argue the Soviet Union planted disinformation suggesting the CIA or other agencies created AIDS, in a plot to destabilize the Western world. They believe this claim was originally disseminated in the West by KGB agents seeking to undermine the faith of citizens in their own government (see: propaganda, black propaganda, disinformation). According to KGB defector Vasili [Mitrokhin], the KGB originated the claim through an East German physicist, Jacob Segal, in the mid 1980s (see the Mitrokhin Archive, 1999 page 319). Mikhail Gorbachev once purportedly stated his regrets that the KGB had planted and actively supported such stories in the Western world.

Some conspiracy theorists believe the claim that AIDS was created by scientists to be false and to have originated from a communist Cold War plot to destabilize the Western world. They believe this claim was originally disseminated in the West by KGB agents seeking to undermine the faith of citizens in their own government (see: propaganda, black propaganda, disinformation). Mikhail Gorbachev once purportedly said that he felt sorry the KGB had planted and actively supported such stories in the Western world.

There has been about 8 scientists that have passed away in which their deaths were questionable.

And Gazz, to Quote Chris Rock "There's no money in the cure. The money is in the medicine."

Although I feel there is a cure, just imagine how many businesses would go under that are dedicated to 'treating' the disease. Makes me wonder...

"Dr. Boyd E. Graves postulates that AIDS was the culmination of biowarfare research conducted by the U.S. Government (and later, by the Soviet government) throughout the 20th century."

"Dr. William C. Douglas, among others, believes that the World Health Organization created the AIDS epidemic by administering contaminated smallpox vaccines to people in third world countries--including African locations--between 1966 and 1977. Dr. Robert Gallo, famous for isolating HIV, lent conditional credence to this theory when he said, "the link between the World Health Organization [vaccination] program and the [AIDS] epidemic in Africa is an interesting and important hypothesis. I cannot say that it actually happened, but I have been saying for some years that the use of live vaccines such as that used for smallpox can activate a dormant infection such as HIV".

If this is true, and AIDS is in fact an "engineered biologic agent" then whoever engineered it must have an antidote or cure!

Of course AIDS is the result of HIV.. Not the other way around.

HIV would have had to have been engineered unless of course you could just skip HIV and infect people with AIDS.. In some humans infected with HIV it can take years to turn into AIDS.

There is ample evidence to support her view.
Here is the timeline for the development of the modified virus
www.boydgraves.com...
Having obtained and studied all the documents available, and
having learned through my contacts in Litton Industries that
equipment related to the development process was provided
by one of their divisions, I am convinced that Africa was
targeted for population reduction using the disease method.
For a conspiracy forum I would be surprised if details about
the medical personal who worked for the medical centers
controlled by Elitists of the Club of Rome has not been mentioned
in relation to the tests done on the East and West coast of the
USA involving virus distribution to homosexuals in this country.
Polls have been conducted to explain why the majority populations
of the world have not shown more concern about the atrocities
both among blacks and homosexuals. The finding was that among
the marginalized groups of people in the USA, the average
white male Caucasian holds those two groups in lowest regard.
Thus the reasoning goes that is why they were targeted... first.
Of course this is all just... conspiracy theory... about just another
conspiracy. People who don't believe probably never will unless
authority tells them it is true.

Usually be then it is too late...
here is what another person who discovered, too late, in another time
and another place the evil humans are capable of.. (and so revealing of
human nature to not get involved until it is too late).

First they came for the Jews
and I did not speak out
because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for the Communists
and I did not speak out
because I was not a Communist.
Then they came for the trade unionists
and I did not speak out
because I was not a trade unionist.
Then they came for me
and there was no one left
to speak out for me.

I don't agree with this statement. Her work in the science of reforestation cannot simply be discounted. She's a pioneer in the field.

The Nobel Prize gives her 15 minutes of fame on a worldwide stage. What statement to the world would you or I make given this opportunity?

I do agree with the rest of your post.

This disease is now striking all members in fast multiplying populations. Is this an engineered agent? Perhaps.

Back in 1988 the state of the art genetic science being thought in a certain Canadian University I attended was up to that level. Whether you are splicing a gene into a microorganism to clean up oil spills or splicing genes together to create an entirely new organism, the basics are the same.

By the time technology gets down to being thought at university level, you can bet that the economic and, shall we say “social benefits” of that technology have already been or are in the process of being exploited. Oh and I remember hearing more than once that HIV exhibited traits that you would ascribe to an engineered agent. In other words, if someone wanted to design a population control “weapon” they could scarcely have done better than HIV. That is the impression I got.

Or is this a natural agent? Not wanting to believe the former I think this is more than likely.

Over 6 billion humans and counting with rapidly depleting resources, polluting the atmosphere, polluting the water and driving species to extinction, Gaia is sick and Her immune system is about to kick into high gear. Too much stress on an environment by a local species will result in the natural equilibrium being disturbed until connected factors come into play to reestablish it. Emergent diseases due to deforestation or any other cause are perfect examples.

So as you can see, I don’t know what to make of the “conspiracy theory” since it is plausible in my opinion.

Whatever the source of AIDS... the fact is... we now live with it.

The refusal of the patent holders of AIDS medicines to allow generic production in Africa is inhuman to put it mildly and lends credence to the assumption that there are people in this world capable of such acts.

To add more information to this thread I direct the reader to this site I stumbled upon recently (I have not yet had time to explore it in detail). They claim:

What You'll Find Here

This web site introduces many scientific challenges to widely held beliefs about HIV and AIDS and explains these in simple terms. You'll find surprising facts about risks, insights into why testing HIV positive is not a death sentence (or even an indicator of infection with HIV), and discover how unfounded estimates and unfulfilled predictions have shaped the public's perception of AIDS.

We invite you to use the articles, information, references, and links at our site to conduct your own investigation and arrive at your own conclusions about HIV and AIDS.

What You Won't Find

We do not promote conspiracy theories, cures, homophobia, or any information not referenced from medical or scientific journals, government publications, international health agencies, or recognized news sources. We offer only verifiable data that can help you distinguish between fear and facts.

Think for Yourself

Alive & Well is not a philosophy, belief system or authoritarian organization. We do not tell you what to think, how to live, or what to do. Our mission is to inspire thoughtful dialogue and vital discussion in order to bring about meaningful solutions to the global tragedy of AIDS.
We encourage responsible behavior and healthy choices. We respect your right to make your own informed decisions regarding HIV and AIDS.
