Jul 24, 2008 - interesting social views. the hiv test is cross-reactive and conditions like pregnancy and vaccinations can cause false positives. the test only tests for proteins and different countries use different criteria in determining a positive result. the test has a legal disclaimer on it. the leading cause of death for those diagnosed with AIDS is organ failure due to toxic hiv drugs. please pray for all those who have been misdiagnosed with hiv and AIDS.

Jul 24, 2008 - Thank you for this thoughtful interview. AIDS is such an awful disease. We have to talk about it as much as we can, to inform as many people as possible. I'm convinced this interview will reach many people - it's a great service to any person in the world.

Jul 24, 2008 - One that is out there is that African vaccinations are laced with HIV. A concerted effort has been applied to wipe out the population of Africa because they are not as easily mind controlled as others. Others say that HIV was designed to harm black Africans more than any other race.

Jul 25, 2008 - 3. "The US economy will require large and increasing amounts of minerals from abroad, especially from less-developed countries. That fact gives the US enhanced interests in the political, economic and social stability of the supplying countries. Wherever a lessening of population can increase the prospects for such stability, population policy becomes relevant to resources, supplies and the economic interest of the United States."-Henry Kissinger

Ellumin8 Says:

Jul 25, 2008 - 1. "Depopulation should be the highest priority of US foreign policy towards the Third World.2. "Reduction of the rate of population in these states is a matter of vital US national security."

Aug 19, 2008 - There was also a book called "Why We Will Never Win The War on AIDS" in the 80s but it was banned by the court as far as I know. Anyway forget about that book. Google "The Perth Group" and "The Other Side of AIDS". You'll probably be surprised. Things are not always as they seem...
