In the late spring of 1981, the National Cancer Institute (NCI) and the National Institutes of Health (NIH) came under increasing Congressional pressure to
clean up the waste and corruption that characterized their ten-year
War on Cancer. As a result, millions of dollars in research funding (and research jobs) were threatened.
Within days,
CDC epidemiologist Wayne Shandara reported that five homosexual men in their 20s and 30s were stricken by a pneumonia that ordinarily strikes cancer and transplant patients that could be related to “the
inhalants commonly used in the gay community to heighten sexual feeling…” Said Shandera, “The best we can say is that somehow
the pneumonia appears to be related to gay life style.” A year later, the
CDC reported that of 57 cases they examined, all of the victims were homosexual (86%) and bi-sexual (14%) men and that (among them), the “use of drugs such as nitrite inhalants, marijuana, hallucinogens, and cocaine was common.”
Although the overwhelming majority of the gay community is comprised of responsible law-abiding tax-paying citizens, the connection between a small subgroup of
promiscuous gay men,
anal sex,
bath houses,
circuit parties,
amyl nitrate and
methamphetamines is well-documented.
DRUG USE
Methamphetamine produces euphoria, excitation, exhilaration, rapid flight of ideas, hallucinations,
increased libido, a heightened sense of well-being, feelings of increased physical strength, and poor impulse control. Binge meth use produces an initial rush, intense euphoria and
sexual stimulation. Anecdotal evidence from police and
addicts shows that meth suppresses physical pain, while others report that a crystal meth rush can produce
spontaneous ejaculation.
AMYL NITRATE (Poppers)
Marketed under
many names,
poppers are a highly flammable muscle relaxant that
facilitates anal intercourse by reducing blood pressure, delivering a warm sensation all over the body and causes large amounts of oxygen-bearing blood to flow through the brain, which produces the
rush. The increased oxygen can intensify positive emotions, lust and a general lack of inhibitions, encouraging a
sense of raw animal sexuality.
I remember the first time that I used poppers… when I was coming – orgasm – I thought it was like a flood… it was an incredibly magnifying effect, and I think that there’s a subset of people who use it for that…
The chemicals found in volatile solvents, aerosols, and gases like
amyl nitrate produce a variety of additional effects during or shortly after use that include dizziness, strong hallucinations, delusions, belligerence, apathy, impaired judgment,
unconsciousness and death.
ANAL INTERCOURSE
Anatomically, the vagina is designed to receive the penis. It is lined with
thin flat cells and is surrounded by a muscular tube intended for penile intromission. The rectum, on the other hand, is lined with a delicate mucosal surface and a single layer of columnar epithelium intenuea primarily for the reabsorption of water and electrolytes. The rectum is incapable of mechanical protection against abrasion and severe damage to the colonic mucosa.
Unlike the vagina, the anus and rectum, contain no natural lubricating function. Thus insertion of unlubricated objects or inadequate dilation of the anus before insertion of a large object can result in tissue laceration. “The internal and external anal sphincters are elastic rings of muscle which generally remain tightly constricted except during defecation. The anal sphincters are also intended for material to pass through them in a direction that leads out of the body. When an attempt is made to insert something in the reverse direction, the muscles of the sphincter constrict… (Holsinger 1991)
During vaginal intercourse, the tissues around the vagina are generally lubricated and supple, which facilitates the act. Occasionally, enthusiastic partners will chafe, become sore and discontinue until the abraded tissue heals.
The use of alcohol or drugs dull sensitivity, which increases the likelihood of injury. When anal intercourse partners (self-identified as
bare-backers) are impaired by drugs like amyl nitrate, cocaine or methamphetamines, they typically don’t experience the pain that is experienced during prolonged periods of intercourse by partners unimpaired by drugs or alcohol. After several hours (or days) of drug-fueled intercourse, the “bottom” can suffer severe abrasive trauma, anal fissures, contusions, thrombosed hemorrhoids, lacerations with bleeding, rectal prolapse, and
proctitis. The subsequent comingling of fecal matter and blood will typically result in serious and life-threatening systemic infections.
When anal intercourse results in injuries and infection, the “bottom” may complain to his practitioner, who typically prescribes
antibiotics that kill the
beneficial flora in the gut and colon, further compromising the patient’s immune function.
Promiscuous drug-addicted homosexual men who do not change their behavior often self-medicate with more illicit drugs and parties. As former CDC AIDS Researcher Gus Sermos wrote in
1988:
… homosexuals have acted as if they had an overpowering, subconscious death-wish. Their vehement repudiation of standard public health and disease control measures has guaranteed that thousands more of them will die the horrible death AIDS confers on its victims.
For his candor, the
CDC sacked Sermos – who is now an attorney.
Unsurprisingly, many “fast-track” gay men acquire immune-deficiency syndromes, are treated with carcinogenic drugs like
AZT, and die. But rather than document the self-destructive decisions, drug abuse, physical injuries, antibiotics, AZT and HAART medications that lead to the patient’s death, the doctor often lists vague “complications related to AIDS” when they sign the death certificate, while gay activists complain that taxpayers aren’t doing enough to fight HIV and AIDS.
Because most people do not engage in the self-destructive behavior described by
Hank Wilson and
others, the vast majority of heterosexuals
and homosexuals rarely acquire (or die from) immune deficiency syndromes. AIDS researcher and
amfAR co-founder Joseph Sonnabend MD resigned after amfAR
invented the myth or heterosexual AIDS as a marketing effort to secure funding from Congress. Healthy asymptomatic heterosexuals like Elizabeth Glaser, Arthur Ashe and Ryan White died while taking heavy doses of
Zidovudine (AZT), which the
Reagan Administration & HHS knew “
only treats symptoms… is very toxic and destroys blood cells and organs.” After more than twenty years as the leading AIDS drug, the California Environmental Protection Agency finally listed it as a
known carcinogen in 2009.
HIV TESTING
HIV tests do not detect HIV or HIV antibodies. HIV tests detect antibodies. Period. Test manufacturers claim that their tests are 99 percent accurate for
sensitivity and
specificity.
SENSITIVITY measures how often a test is positive when you already know what you are testing for is present. SPECIFICITY expresses how often a test is positive when a patient DOES NOT have the condition.
In all HIV test literature, sensitivity and specificity are not based on measurements of the test against an isolated virus, but is a concordant measure between two tests that do not detect HIV or HIV antibodies. Careful examination of the manufacturer’s label information makes this clear contrary to their claims of sensitivity and specificity of 99.9 percent. The vast majority of these reported measures of accuracy have nothing to do with whether HIV is present, but how well one test performs as compared to other tests already on the market. These measures of accuracy refer to the concordance between two tests; namely, how often a new test says a sample is positive when one already on the market says it is positive (sensitivity), and how often it is negative (specificity). Given the fact that all HIV antibody tests are based on the same molecular principles and built from the same portfolio of basic molecular building blocks, their remarkable concordance is not surprising.
However, even if two different tests demonstrate 100 percent concordance, that does not justify the use of either for purposes other than what they have been validated and approved for. By analogy, if two different manufacturers were to construct two different timepieces using the same specifications for the gears and wheels, only to put them in different casings, it is very likely that these two clocks would perform quite similarly. However, even if there were greater than 99.9 percent concordance between these two timepieces, one cannot conclude that either clock measures time accurately.
HIV tests are so notoriously inaccurate that ALL FDA-approved HIV test package inserts
warn clinicians that persons who test positive can only be “
PRESUMED to be infected.”
“
Clinically indicated” means that diagnosticians must rule out
dozens of other conditions and factors that are known to cause false positive HIV test results. Some of those conditions include:
- Normal human ribonucleoproteins (48, 13)
- Pregnancy (58, 53, 13, 43, 36, 85, 92)
- Pregnant Latina women (97)
- Receptive anal sex (39, 64)
- Maternal antibodies carried over to uninfected infants (87)
- Naturally-occurring antibodies (5, 19)
- Rheumatoid arthritis (14, 62, 53)
- “Sticky” blood (in Africans) (38, 34, 40)
- T-cell leukocyte antigen antibodies (48, 13)
- Blood transfusions, multiple blood transfusions (63, 36, 13, 49, 43, 41)
- Hemodialysis/renal failure (56, 16, 41, 10, 49)
- Organ transplantation (1, 36)
- Renal transplantation (35, 9, 48, 13, 56)
- Flu and other vaccines (30, 11, 3, 20, 13, 43, 72, 76 28, 21, 40, 43 67 40, 107, 108, 109)
- Diabetes (101)
- Drug abuse — Injection drug use (parenteral substance abuse & OTHER (86)
- Hemophilia (10, 49)
- Multiple sclerosis (86) (105)
- Primary biliary cirrhosis (43, 53, 13, 48, 104)
- Renal (kidney) failure (48, 23, 13)
- Rheumatoid arthritis (36)
- Epstein-Barr virus (37, 90)
- Flu (36)
- Malaria (6, 12, 75, 88)
- Other retroviruses (8, 55, 14, 48, 13)
- Stevens-Johnson syndrome (9, 48, 13)
- Syphilis (101)
- Trypanosoma cruzi (Chagas Disease) (88)
- Tuberculosis (25)
- Upper respiratory tract infection [cold or flu] (11)
Unless these and dozens of other conditions are ruled out, a clinician cannot diagnose HIV in asymptomatic patients – a fact
corroborated by health department officials.
CD4 COUNTS BELOW 200
Just as clinicians cannot use HIV tests to diagnose HIV,
flow cytometry has never been proven to accurately count CD4 cells. Even if they could, no studies have been conducted that produce baselines of what can be considered normal and abnormal among humans.
AIDS in AFRICA
Since about 1995, Americans have been told that AIDS is ravaging Africa. As a result,
billions of dollars have been sent to Africa’s third-world leaders through
Congress and
NGOs to fight what researchers insist is a “global pandemic” (i.e.,
everyone will catch it).
After the discovery of diamonds, gold and other precious jewels in the late 19th century and the explosion of the mining industry in South Africa and throughout the African continent, the universities of Cape Town and Johannesburg lead research into mine-related lung diseases for nearly a century. Researchers found that, regardless of geography, humans who regularly inhale mine dust eventually succumb to fatal diseases like silicosis, asbestosis, pneumoconiosis, and tuberculosis. They also learned that humans who drink water polluted by heavy metals and toxins will eventually succumb to disease.
Today, more than
1500 international mining companies operate thousands of mines throughout Africa at a fraction of the cost that those companies would pay in places like the US and Europe. If we compare the cost to hire one US miner ($15,000K/mo) to the cost of hiring illiterate children from countries like Malawi and Nigeria (~$80/mo), the value of these mining operations to the global market is undeniable.
But despite what we’re told,
there is little evidence of an HIV epidemic in Africa. Official government statistics from
Europe (
2),
Australia and
South Africa [
2007] show that actual HIV-related mortality is
a tiny fraction of one percent of the overall populations. Throughout the so-called pandemic, the African population doubled from
400 million to 800 million. Paradoxically,
UN concerns about Africa’s overpopulation conflicts directly with
mortality ESTIMATES that researchers
admit are exaggerated (more links
here). When Rian Malan investigated HIV mortality for
Rolling Stone magazine in 2001, he
found almost no evidence.
As
OMSJ reported, virtually all lung-disease research was abruptly replaced during the mid-1990s after miners filed a class-action lawsuit against the mining giant
AngloAmerican. When the lawsuit threatened the collapse of the international mining industry, funding for lung-disease treatment and research disappeared virtually overnight. In its place, millions of dollars in AIDS research funding flooded research centers.
Today, companies like
AVGold,
AngloGold,
Gold Field,
AngloAmerican and
RandGold promote aggressive HIV/AIDS testing and treatment programs under a
humanitarian pretext. So when workers gets sick from lung diseases, company clinicians convince these illiterate miners that they forgot to wear condoms, have contracted HIV and need medications. When they die, their mortality is used to corroborate claims that HIV ravages the African continent.
When people get sick near a mine in the United States, companies like
WR Grace pay billions to settle claims. However in Africa, where thousands of mining operations generate few complaints of hazardous waste and pollutants, activists and
CDC officials are dispatched to test and treat local victims for HIV.
The United States cannot withdraw from Africa because of the scheme’s strategic value. After all, how does the US compete in the global market if we mine defense materials like gold and platinum for $15,000 per laborer and leave countries like China and Russia to mine the same materials at $80 per miner?
From a strategic viewpoint, America’s economic and strategic survival depends upon our material claims in Africa. Those claims depend almost entirely on the mythology of HIV that OMSJ’s
HIV Innocence Group will continue to challenge.
