and still are top secret. This department has a long and documented tradition of human experimentation. Political economic ties between the Army Department of Biological and Chemical Warfare, the CIA, CDC, INCI, WHO and private industry groups could very well research on humans without the scientific community ever knowing about it. The combined military and political power combined with private agencies is unimaginable.

While it is true that there is no overwhelming evidence that proves positive that the experiment was designed to kill gays, if you search the medical literature carefully, there are clues that the men on the study were severely damaged by AIDS. In fact more then any AIDS group in Africa! In 1982, one year after the official onset of the epidemic, the men on the hepatitis B vaccine study had the highest incidents of AIDS ever recorded on earth anywhere, even Africa where the virus was supposedly around for millenniums.

If one carefully studies the graphs of a report by Cladd Stevens in 1986 showing the rate of infection in the hepatitis B participants one thing is clear, they were all going to die of AIDS. The evidence is contained in the gay blood stored at the New York City Blood Center. Through retroactive testing it was determined definitely that there was no AIDS before 1978. It was determined definitely that AIDS was introduced into the gay community sometime around 1978. The same year the trucks pulled onto Christopher Street. So was the vaccination contaminated with AIDS? It was manufactured by Merck and the National Institutes of Health. According to June Goodfield, virus contamination was suspected in one batch of NIH vaccine but not the Merck batches. As late as 1983 several infectious disease specialists reported that AIDS may be related to the hepatitis B vaccine because 93 percent of the men testing HIV positive also tested positive for hepatitis B.

In 1979, of 212 men tested who got the vaccine, 6.6 percent were HIV positive, by 1981 that figure rose to 20 percent, by 1984 40 percent of the participants were positive.

How do we know that the participants had not been exposed to HIV before the vaccination experiment took place? Upon review of the blood collected for various reasons and saved at the New York Blood Center, Cladd Stevens and her group at the blood center found no HIV in 1976, 1977 or 1978. According to the CDC the first cases of AIDS were reported in 1979. In 1982, the first year after the official start of the epidemic 30 percent of the men on the study were positive. The blood taken to make the serum was collected in 1977 because it took 65 weeks to make, pushing the donation dates back to 1977. There was no AIDS in New York in 1977.

When WHO official Davis Heyman was questioned by Rolling Stone reporter Tom Curtis, about the polio vaccine and the AIDS connection, his comment was "who cares about the origin. It didn't matter, it was of no importance." William Haseltine was even more adamant about it: "Who cares about where it came from. Who really cares. It's an unanswerable question and I'm not interested in discussing it."

Well, we are interested in discussing it. After more than a decade the results of the death rate of the hepatitis cohort remains unknown, and is classified as secret information.

We do know that of the participants that received all three injections, 96 percent developed antibodies to the hepatitis B virus. A success rate of 92.3 percent. This magnitude of response had never been achieved before or since. We also know now that the hepatitis B vaccine is not very effective in HIV positive people, less than 50 percent. Therefore the men on the study could not have been HIV positive at the time of the experiment.

I believe we have found the smoking gun

in the following questions:

AIDS anywhere

Why is AIDS primarily a heterosexual disease in Africa and homosexual in the U.S.?

How did black Africans get infected first? What kind of infectious agent transmits homosexually on one side of the earth and heterosexually on the other side of the earth?

There are millions of white Africans, why is AIDS primarily a black African's disease?

In the United States, why was AIDS first seen in gay white men but not gay black men?

Why were the first cases healthy gay white males who should have been the most resistant?

Why were there no cases among Asian Americans?

Why were there no cases among Native Americans?

Why were there no cases among women? Why were there no cases among infants? Why were there no cases among the elderly?

Why were there no cases among the immune compromised who would be the most susceptible and most likely to die the quickest?

Why did the gay plague erupt as soon as gays started coming out in great numbers for the first time in recorded history? Another coincidence of nature?

Why are retroviral diseases never before seen in modern medicine, appearing so soon after retroviruses were discovered?

Why did the AIDS super virus appear a decade after it was predicted by biomedical warfare experts?

How did this deadly virus find its way from the steamy jungles of Africa to the island of Manhattan and mysteriously invade the immune system of just gay men?

Why were no promiscuous heterosexuals among the first cases? And why exclusively men?

Eight years after the start of the plague it was discovered that AIDS had killed more IV drug users then non-users. For some reason, 2,520 drug related AIDS cases were left out of the official statistics. With revised statistics, IV drug users comprise 53 percent of the New York City cases. If IV drug use is higher risk why weren't they the first ones to get this virus instead of gay men? AIDS experts never asked how a sexually transmitted virus that spreads easily among heterosexuals could start in America as an exclusively gay disease? Transmitted only between gay men? The answer is the hepatitis B vaccine, New York City, 1978.

Cladd Stevens and her group at the New York City Blood Center have traced the first and earliest known positive AIDS virus antibody tests to young Manhattan gays who were injected with the hepatitis B vaccine experiment conducted by the blood center starting in November of 1978.

How many more have to die before people speak out against this secret genocide? Where are the Jews who study the Holocaust and remain silent about the new world order extermination program? Where are the Christians who preach, "Thou shalt not kill?”

Ask yourself these questions and while you do, remember our government has been caught red-handed experimenting on unsuspecting people. Most recently, the radiation experiments, and going as far back as the Tuskegee study where African-American men were allowed to remain infected with syphilis even after a cure was found, simply to follow the course of the disease. Look at the AZT studies and the lies perpetrated for profit about the effectiveness of the drug. We need not look far to see, with our own eyes, that the theory that our government purposely infected gay men with AIDS, a super virus that was made in American labs, is not only possible but likely.

While we need to continue to take care of each other as best we can, we owe it to the future of the gay movement to pursue this theory and either prove it right or wrong, or forever wonder if we are victims of a master extermination plan. ✓
