"The most formidable barrier to the advancement of science is the conventional wisdom of the dominant group."

Conrad Hal Waddington, Embryologist & Geneticist (1905 - 1975).

"Never doubt that a small group of committed people can change the world; indeed it is the only thing that ever has."

Margaret Mead, Cultural Anthropologist, (1901 - 1978).

"All truth goes through three stages. First it is ridiculed. Then it is violently opposed. Finally, it is accepted as self-evident."
                                                                                                     

Arthur Schopenhauer  (1788 - 1860).

"There is no proof that HIV causes AIDS - for many reasons but most importantly, because there is no proof that HIV exists."

Eleni Papadopulos-Eleopulos,  Is HIV the cause of AIDS?, Continuum, Autumn 1997.

"The HIV hypothesis ranks with the 'bad air' theory for malaria and the 'bacterial infection' theory of beriberi and pellagra [caused by nutritional deficiencies]. It is a hoax that became a scam."

 Dr. Bernard Forscher, Conspiracy of Silence, The Sunday Times, 3 April 1994.

"It is a dire example of how a distinguished scholar who has contributed much to the advancement of science, now impedes further progress by his stubborn adherence to a dogma of his own creation." 

“An error can never become true however many times you repeat it. The truth can never be wrong, even if no one ever hears about it. Truth alone will endure; all the rest will be swept away before the tide of time.” 

Mahatma Gandhi (1869 - 1948).

"Here we encounter the dogmatic stupidity proper to a signifier as such, the stupidity which assumes the shape of a tautology: a name refers to an object because this object is called that... "

Slavoj Zizek, The Sublime Object of Ideology, Verso, 1989.

"Scientists will then have to come to terms with the awful fact that the AIDS epidemic was a mirage manufactured by scientists who believed that integrity could be maintained amidst the diverting influences of big money, prestige and politics."

Professor Hiram Caton, Conspiracy of Silence, The Sunday Times, April 1994.

"I propose there are no human retroviruses. 'HIV' is not Human, it has never been proven to be the cause of Immunodeficiency, and is not a Virus, but a misinterpreted artefact of human and simian cell cultures. Therefore the acronym 'HIV' is wrong on all counts."

Michel Verney-Elliott, 'SIV' and Poliovaccination - A Shot In The Foot?, 1999.

"My work as a mathematical biologist has been built in large part on the paradigm that HIV causes AIDS, and I have since come to realize that there is good evidence that the entire basis for this theory is wrong. AIDS, it seems, is not a disease so much as a sociopolitical construct that few people understand and even fewer question...Why have we as a society been so quick to accept a theory for which so little solid evidence exists?...For over twenty years, the general public has been greatly misled and ill-informed."

Rebecca V. Culshaw, Ph.D., Why I Quit HIV; Lew Rockwell, March 3, 2006.

"I found that when they are speaking about HIV they are not speaking about a virus. They are speaking about cellular characteristics and activities of cells under very special conditions...I realized that the whole group of viruses to which HIV is said to belong, the retroviruses, in fact do not exist at all."

Dr. Stefan Lanka, Virologist,  Zenger's, December, 1998.

"Where is the research that says HIV is the cause of AIDS? If there is evidence that HIV causes AIDS, there should be scientific documents which either singly or collectively demonstrate that fact, at least with a high probability. There is no such document." 

Dr. Kary Mullis, Biochemist, 1993 Nobel Prize for Chemistry, The Sunday Times,  28 November 1993.

"A thing is what it is not because of its place in the ideal classification system but because of its place in real history. The order of concretely existing things is from now on determined not by ideal essences outside them but by the historical forces buried within them."  

 Gary Cutting, Michel Foucault's Archeology of Scientific Reason, Cambridge University Press, 1989.

"The HIV-causes-AIDS dogma represents the grandest and perhaps the most morally destructive fraud that has ever been perpetrated on the young men and women of the Western world."

Dr. Charles Thomas, Conspiracy of Silence, The Sunday Times, April 1994.

"All things are subject to interpretation whichever interpretation prevails at a given time is a function of power and not truth....Every elevation of man brings with it the overcoming of narrower interpretations...every strengthening and increase of power opens up new perspectives and means believing in new horizons."

Friedrich Nietzsche (1844-1900).

"I have attended, as a reporter, eight International AIDS Conferences. They are uniformly awful, a total waste of a journalist’s time. Mostly I go just to fortify my belief that AIDS - the entire industry and social machinery of it - is at its root a totalitarian system. By that, I mean that there is a central ideology that seeks to enforce its domination by methodically obstructing any ideas that run counter to it." 

Celia Farber, Fear & Loathing in Geneva, Impressions Magazine, 24 August, 1998.

"Promoting science isn't just about providing resources, it is also about protecting free and open inquiry. It is about letting scientists like those here today do their jobs, free from manipulation or coercion, and listening to what they tell us, even when it's inconvenient especially when it's inconvenient. It is about ensuring that scientific data is never distorted or concealed to serve a political agenda and that we make scientific decisions based on facts, not ideology."

President Barack Obama, 9 March 2009.

"To an extent that undermines classical standards of science, some purported scientific results concerning 'HIV' and 'AIDS' have been handled by press releases, by disinformation, by low-quality studies, and by some suppression of information, manipulating the media and people at large. When the official scientific press does not report correctly, or obstructs views dissenting from those of the scientific establishment, it loses credibility and leaves no alternative but to find information elsewhere.."

"On the face of it, the designation of AIDS as the most significant threat to public health is nonsense...This catastrophic vision is the AIDS mirage. I call it a mirage because health authorities embrace a contingent future as an incontrovertible truth. The passion invested in the viral epidemic dogma is transferred to the entire AIDS management program, so that the whole is seized by cataleptic rigidity (a panic symptom). Our AIDS management systems are incapable of reviewing evidence which shows that there have been mistakes about HIV causality, mistakes of diagnosis, mistakes about its transmission, mistakes about HIV antibody tests, mistakes about therapies."

Professor Hiram Caton, Why We Need AIDS; The AIDS Mirage, 1995.

"It is a mistake to believe that a science consists in nothing but conclusively proved propositions, and it is unjust to demand that it should. It is a demand only made by those who feel a craving for authority in some form and a need to replace the religious catechism by something else, even if it be a scientific one. Science in its catechism has but few apodictic precepts; it consists mainly of statements which it has developed to varying degrees of probability. The capacity to be content with these approximations to certainty and the ability to carry on constructive work despite the lack of final confirmation are actually a mark of the scientific habit of mind."

Sigmund Freud (1856-1939). 

"Summary: Each type of virus particle has unique morphological characteristics.  Even today no agreement exists as to what are the morphological characteristics of the particles said to be HIV. No HIV particle has all the morphological characteristics of retroviruses. Knobs are fundamental to the definition of a retrovirus - No knobs on the HIV particles. Retrovirus-like particles may appear in any culture infected or not infected. Each virus contains unique proteins. Purification absolutely necessary to prove their existence. No proof for HIV purification. The evidence is that the HIV proteins are cellular. Conclusion: No proof for the existence of unique HIV particles. No proof for HIV transmission. No proof for the existence of unique HIV proteins. No proof for the existence of a unique human retrovirus."

Eleni Papadopulos-Eleopulos, An analysis of the evidence for the existence of HIV, October 2006.

"Science is about making observations and trying to fit them into a theoretical framework. Having the theoretical framework allows us to make predictions about phenomena that we can then test. HIV 'science' long ago set off on a different path...People who ask simple, straightforward questions are labelled as loonies who are dangerous to public health...Yet HIV 'science' has declined so far that these elementary questions are addressed neither by the research groups themselves, nor the referees at Nature whose job it is to critique the papers before publication. But nobody in the HIV research community is at all bothered by this...One gets a remarkable sense of being disassociated from the real world when entering the realm of AIDS research."

Mark Craddock, HIV: Science by press conference; AIDS: VIrus- or Drug Induced?, Kluwer Academic Publishers, 1996.

"I would like to present the evidence available to me in support of the hypothesis: a) that AIDS is a typical example of epidemic hysteria, b) that the epidemic has at its core an unconscious group delusion, which can be called the group-fantasy of scapegoating, c) that the combination of these unconscious group tensions brought about a subtle and sophisticated, but nevertheless sacrificial witch hunt, in which the participants were the Moral Majority, d) that these attacks resulted in an epidemic of depression based mostly on shame; e) that the core sign of AIDS, the reduction of cell-mediated response, is one of the typical vegetative signs of severe depression; f) that the epidemic represents, in the group’s unconscious fantasies, an equivalent war, during which the group keeps careful count of the sacrifices; g) and finally that, since the epidemic is psychogenic, the prediction can be made that the group will decide when it should be over (when they have ‘had enough’), a decision which will be broadcast to the group members through the media, so that after a suitable lag period the epidemic will resolve and the incidence will descend from epidemic to endemic levels."

Positive Nation, December 1997/January 1998

One of the most controversial figures on the British AIDS scene is Alex Russell (pictured), editor of the magazine Death Camp and researcher for Continuum magazine. He has long argued  that AIDS research and treatment are totally misdirected. Here he says that HIV simply does not exist.

In 14 years, the 'HIV' hypothesis has been unproductive and non-predictive because 'Aids'  is neither an infectious epidemic nor caused by 'HIV'. To date, 'HIV' has never been isolated as a unique, exogenous 'retrovirus'. Dr Robert Gallo and  Prof Luc Montagnier  announced the 'discovery' of a 'retrovirus' fully aware that there was no proof for it. Gallo and Montagnier published electron micrographs of a few particles which they claimed are a 'retrovirus' and are 'HIV'. But the photographs did not prove the particles were a virus.  Virologists Dr Stefan Lanka states: "The rules demonstrating the existence of HIV (and retroviruses in general) were never adhered to by those who devised them nor were they ever validated." (Continuum Vol.4, No.3) 'Retroviruses' (as a source of  reverse transcription) have never been proven to exist as biological entities.  All 'retroviruses' ('HIV', 'SIV', 'BIV', 'FIV', 'MIV') are hypothetical constructs. 'Retroviruses' are  an over-determination of the phenomenon of reverse transcription first discovered in 1970 by Howard Temin whilst  studying the Rous Sarcoma Virus. Reverse transcription is a normal process of cells associated with cellular repair mechanisms particularly of the cell membrane. Reverse transcription is not a property unique to hypothetical 'retroviruses' - it also occurs in hepatitis viruses as well as most mammalian and plant cells. 

There is no Universal Gold Standard 'HIV' test to prove 'HIV' positivity. The 'HIV' antibody test does not detect a 'virus' but an assortment of proteins that are non-specific to the hypothetical 'HIV'. The proteins that are used in the 'HIV' test are merely the biological outcome of stressed white blood cells used in the lab.  In 'Bio/Technology', June 1993, 'Aids' analyst, Dr Eleni Eleopulos  exposed the non-specificity and unreliability of the 'HIV' 'antibody test'.  Dr Eleopulos's critique supports the argument for the banning of the misleading 'HIV' tests. 

There can be no Gold Standard 'HIV' test because there is no Gold Standard 'HIV'  isolate. On each continent there are different criteria for 'HIV' positivity and 'Aids' definition. All evidence of 'HIV' positivity must be confirmed by pure culturing of a patient's lymphocytes and detection of whole, sell-free viral particles; so far this has never been achieved. 'HIV' is termed a 'lentivirus' ('slow virus'): lentiviruses are not known to be sexually transmitted.  

The hypothetical 'HIV' is not sexually transmitted: cell-free viral particles have never been found directly in semen.  In 'American Journal of Epidemiology' (Vol. 146, No.4), Nancy  S. Padian et al reported: "We estimate that  HIV  infectivity for male-to-female transmission is low, approximately 0.0009 per contact, and that infectivity for female-to-male transmission is even lower." 

Moreover, Dr David Ho admits that  99.8 per cent of putative 'HIV particles' are non-infectious; the remaining 0.2 per cent of 'viral particles' , being defective, are not capable of replication. As a transmittable entity, 'HIV' could not survive in nature. This indicates that  what we are calling 'HIV' is a misinterpreted, non-transmissible, endogenous epiphenomenon that should never have been classed as a virus. 'HIV' is an artefact of cell-culture invented by Dr Robert Gallo. The phenomena collectively known as 'HIV' are non-specific: reverse transcriptase is non-specific; PCR is non-specific; Viral Load is non-specific. Each property relating to 'HIV' can be shown to pertain to the cells used in co-cultivation experiments.  No particle of 'HIV' has ever been obtained pure, free of contaminants; nor has a complete piece  of 'HIV' RNA (or the transcribed DNA) ever been proved to exist. 

Dr John Papadimitriou states: "They have not proven that they  actually have detected a unique, exogenous retrovirus. The critical data to support that idea have not been presented. You have to be absolutely certain that what you have detected  is unique and exogenous, and a single molecular species....the proper controls have never been done. ('Aids: The failure of contemporary science', Neville Hodgkinson, Fourth Estate, 1996, page 375).  Dr Eleopulos and her colleagues argue that the greatest ingle obstacle to understanding and solving 'Aids' is 'HIV'.  'HIV' imprinting has become unconsciously internalised on such a global scale that people will not be able to accept the brute reality that 'HIV' does not exist.

Dear Prime Minister Gordon Brown,

Thank you for your letter of 16 April 2008 carefully noting my views. I replied on the 23rd of April 2008 but still have had no reply from you.

I want your office through the Department of Health to provide me with an electron micrograph of purified HIV particles to prove HIV exists.

So once again I would be grateful if you could provide me with such an electron micrograph, as without such essential evidence all HIV testing procedures remain invalid and illegal as such and must be withdrawn.

If you are still unable to resolve this issue I will have to take you to the European Court of Human Rights as HIV testing violates human rights.

Yours sincerely, Alexander Verney-Elliott

29^th March, 2008

Dear Honourable Prime Minister Mr. Gordon Brown,

I would like to bring your attention to my reward of £50,000 for electron-micrograph (EM) evidence of the existence of HIV.

The non-isolation of HIV was the main theme of a satellite meeting 'HIV-testing; open questions regarding specificity' held at the 12th World AIDS Conference in Geneva in 1998. The International Forum for Accessible Science (IFAS) hosted this session with a panel of distinguished HIV critics including Professor Gordon Stewart, Professor Etienne de Harven. Ten years on, the isolation of HIV has not been proven.

Contributing to this session was a panel of scientists from Perth, Western Australia, led by biophysicist Eleni Eleopulos who argued that there had been no isolation of HIV according to the scientifically approved standards for retroviral isolation as discussed at the Pasteur Institute in 1973.

At the closing of press session I asked Richard Horton, then editor of The Lancet, and the 12th World AIDS Conference chairman, Dr. Bernard Hirschel: "The current indirect HIV tests and PCR are not sufficient proof that HIV has been isolated.  Where is the proof that HIV exists? "  None of the perplexed panel answered.

The alleged co-discoverers of HIV Luc Montagnier and Robert Gallo agreed that to claim the existence of a new retrovirus the minimum necessary but not sufficient condition is to have electron microscopic (EM) evidence for the isolation (purification) of the putative retroviral particles.

In 1997 Montagnier admitted to the French journalist Djamel Tahi that the material, which in 1983 he claimed to represent purified HIV, did not even have particles with the "morphology typical of retroviruses" and stated: "I repeat we did not purify".   Prof. Gallo stated: "You have to purify." Yet when Montagnier was asked if the Gallo group purified 'HIV', he replied: "I don't know if he really purified. I don't believe so." (1)  

Dr. Heinz Ludwig Sänger, Emeritus Professor of Molecular Biology and Virology, Max-Planck-Institutes for Biochemy, München stated:   "Up to today there is actually no single scientifically really convincing evidence for the existence of HIV. Not even once such a retrovirus has been isolated and purified by the methods of classical virology." (2)

To date there is still no electron micrograph (EM) which shows purification of the putative HIV particles and thus of the existence of a unique, isolated retrovirus. What was wrongly taken to be 'purified HIV' was in fact cellular debris as Hans Gelderblom et al demonstrated in Virology, March 1997.  This brings urgently into question the validity, efficacy and legality of all hypothetical HIV testing procedures.

All images of the hypothetical HIV are invariably computerized fictions of virtual virology (often embellished with seductive psychedelic colours) and yet it has never been possible to visualize any HIV retroviral particle by EM. In summary, I request your office, and the Department of Health, obtain EM evidence for the existence of purified HIV particles.

I would like to conclude with a couple of quotes that aptly apply to Gallo and Montagnier:

"The most formidable barrier to the advancement of science is the conventional wisdom of the dominant group." 

C. H. Waddington, Geneticist.

"It is a dire example of how a distinguished scholar who has contributed much to the advancement of science, now impedes further progress by his stubborn adherence to a dogma of his own creation."

BOYCOTT Project (RED) Auction Sotheby’s       02/12/08 07:39 AM

SEE RED & BOYCOTT Project (RED) Auction Sotheby’s New York 14th February 2008 "An error can never become true however many times you repeat it. " Mahatma Gandhi (1869 - 1948). We are calling upon Bono of The (Project) Red Campaign, Damien Hirst, Gagosian Gallery, Sotheyby’s and participating artists donating work for the United Nations Foundation to Support HIV/AIDS Relief Programs in Africa to postpone The (RED) Auction in light of the lethal dangers of ART (anti-retroviral therapy) as extensively reported in the medical literature. The promotion of ART in Africa is leading toward pharmagenocide - direct medical killing. It is has been scientifically demonstrated that AZT and other ART drug regimes are actually causing Iatrogenic-AIDS - medically induced AIDS - or what Prof. Peter Duesberg calls: ‘AIDS by prescription’. Whilst ‘HIV’ has never been proven to cause AIDS the drugs used to treat it have been shown to produce symptoms indistinguishable from AIDS. The artists collaborating such as Georg Baselitz, Peter Blake, Tracey Emin, Antony Gormley, Subodh Gupta, Damien Hirst, Sir Howard Hodgkin, Gary Hume, Jasper Johns, Anish Kapoor, Anselm Kiefer, Jeff Koons, Richard Prince, Marc Quinn, Ed Ruscha, Rachel Whiteread, and Sam Taylor-Wood seem to be unaware of the sound and solid scientific arguments against anti-retroviral therapy (ART) as well as the fact that there is no visual EM (electron microscopic) evidence that ‘HIV’ exists (and EM is the only scientifically valid method for retroviral isolation). Would Cecily Brown, Tracey Emin, Rachel Whiteread and Sam Taylor-Wood really give their own babies AZT and ART? We applaud Chris Ofili and the other 20 artists for seeing RED and refusing taking part in this shameful Sotheby’s AIDS (ART) auction and ask all artists to pull out and stop propagating in this pernicious pharmagenocide profiteering. To end of a humorous note: playing at a recent U2 concert in Glasgow, Bono asked the audience for absolute quiet and then in the silence started to slowly clap his hands, once every few seconds. Holding the audience in total silence, he said into the microphone: "Every time I clap my hands, a child in Africa dies." A voice with a broad Scottish accent, from near the front of the crowd, pierces the silence: "Well, fucking stop doin' it then!" We urge Bono, Hirst and all the artists involved to cancel the auction and Stop Iatrogenic AIDS. We invite the artists to acquaint themselves with a few of the following facts about AZT and ART: AZT causes Cancer "The effect of AZT on body cells on the whole is very deleterious because it prevents cells from replicating. There is a second point in that cells that may survive AZT may themselves become cancerous so there is a double danger for AZT. " - Dr. Robert Hoffman, Professor of Cancer Biology University of California, San Diego; AZT-Cause for Concern, Dispatches, Channel 4 1992. AZT causes AIDS "AZT is a prescription drug and according to the manufacturer itself it causes symptoms that are indistinguishable from AIDS. So I would say it is not arrogant for me to say that AZT is AIDS by prescription." - Peter Duesberg, Professor of Molecular and Cell Biology, University of California at Berkeley. Failure of HIV Science "My work as a mathematical biologist has been built in large part on the paradigm that HIV causes AIDS, and I have since come to realize that there is good evidence that the entire basis for this theory is wrong. AIDS, it seems, is not a disease so much as a sociopolitical construct that few people understand and even fewer question...Why have we as a society been so quick to accept a theory for which so little solid evidence exists? For over twenty years, the general public has been greatly misled and ill-informed." - Rebecca V. Culshaw, Ph.D., Why I Quit HIV; Lew Rockwell, March 3, 2006.   AZT hastens Death "I think AZT can only hasten the demise of the individual. It’s an immune disease and AZT only further harms an already decimated immune system." – Professor Jay Levy, Director of the Laboratory for Tumour and AIDS Virus Research, University of California at San Francisco, Newsday, 12 June (1990).   AZT and ART cause nerve damage "AZT and other nucleoside analogue drugs are much more toxic than we considered previously. … The layer of fat-storing cells directly beneath the skin, which wastes away … is loaded with mitochondria … other commonside effects of [AZT and similar drugs are] nerve and muscle damage, pancreatitis and decreased production of blood cells … all resemble conditions caused by inherited mitochondrial diseases." – (Brinkman et al. The Lancet 354(9184): 1112-5 1999). AZT damages pregnant women "You are justified in sounding a warning against the long-term therapeutic use of AZT, or its use in pregnant women, because of its demonstrated toxicity and side effects. Unfortunately, the devastating effects of AZT emerged only after the final level of experiments were well underway, that is, the experiments which consisted of giving AZT to large numbers of human patients over a long period of time. Your effort is a worthy one … I hope you succeed in convincing your government not to make AZT available." – Professor Richard Beltz, inventor of AZT in 1961, to Adv Brink, 11 May 2000. ART birth defects in newborn babies "Children born to HIV-positive women who take antiretroviral therapy (ART) during pregnancy are significantly smaller in terms of height, weight and head circumference compared with children born to HIV-positive women not on ART, or who took monotherapy, according to the results of a European study examining the effects of ART on uninfected children's growth up to the age of 18 months. " [European Collaborative Study, JAIDS 40(3): 364-370 (2005)] – Edwin Bernard, AIDSmap News, 3 November (2005). Growing evidence against HIV Establishment "Look, there’s no sociological mystery here … It’s just people’s income and position being threatened. That’s why they’re so nasty. In the AIDS field, there is a widespread neurosis among scientists. There’s just so much slowly accumulating evidence against them. It’s really hard for them to deal with it. They made a really big mistake and they’re not ever going to fix it. They’re still poisoning people.

World AIDS Day 2007 - Deconstructing 'HIV'
Amun: 12/01/07 05:38 AM

Ten years ago electronmicrographs (EMs) were published in Virology, March 1997 (Gluschankof et al and Bess et al) clearly depicting what was assumed to be 'HIV' was in fact cellular debris and mircrovesicles proving that no one is 'HIV' positive but rather 'positive' for an arbitrary assortment of microvesicles and cellular debris. What has wrongly been named as 'HIV is merely an endogenous epiphenomenon of microvesicles and nebulous cellular matter. These historic EMs deconstruct 'HIV' showing that there was no 'purified HIV' there to begin with but rather cellular contamination instead.

It is the papers by the proponents of the 'HIV' hypothesis who actually take it apart and expose its flaws, absurdities, anomalies, errors and contradictions, along with history (time) which is always the greatest deconstructive critique for it is time itself that unravels and exposes the 'HIV' hypothesis as failed, unfounded and ungrounded. Deconstruction - as Derrida stated - is always already at work within texts - and all papers that purport to propagate 'HIV' are actually arguing that 'HIV' does not exist.

Hans Gelderblom of Berlin's Robert Koch Institute co-authored the first paper in Virology showing 'purified HIV' to be 'purified microvesicles'. What was assumed to be 'purified HIV' was in fact "an excess of vesicles" - particles of cellular proteins. The hypothetical 'HIV' is in fact a collection of endogenous microvesicles and cellular proteins (which also never seem to form particles - so how can they be infectious)?

The key fact to remember is that cell-free infectious 'HIV' viral particles have never, repeat never, been visualised, isolated and recovered from fresh donor blood and semen. To date: 'HIV' has never been visualised under electron microscopy so there is no empirical evidence that anyone is 'HIV' positive and all the images you have been shown are coloured-in computerized fantasies with dishs-aerials.

The rules demonstrating the existence of 'HIV' (and retroviruses in general) were never adhered to by those who devised them nor were they ever validated. No particle of 'HIV' has ever been obtained pure, free of contaminants; nor has a complete piece of 'HIV RNA' (or the transcribed DNA) ever been proved to exist.

So confident am I that no such electron-micrograph evidence for the existence of 'HIV' can be produced by adhering strictly to the Etienne de Harven methodology, I am prepared to offer the sum of $100,000 to the first person to submit just such a micrograph, prepared under stringent laboratory conditions. I do not want 'markers' for 'viral activity' which are at very best, inaccurate. I want visual evidence of myriad active, infectious viral particles, clearly morphologically defined recovered from a fresh sample of bodily fluid, unadulterated with any other kinds of cells: i.e: CEM,H9 cancer cells. As Peter Duesberg and Harvey Bialy stated in Nature: "...infectious units, after all, are the only clinically relevant criteria for a viral pathogen." (Nature, 375, 1995, p. 197) Once again, to paraphrase Peter Duesberg, an alleged 'virus' which is not doing anything cannot be 'causing' anything.

As Virologist Dr. Stefan Lanka observed: The rules demonstrating the existence of HIV (and retroviruses in general) were never adhered to by those who devised them nor were they ever validated. No particle of HIV has ever been obtained pure, free of contaminants; nor has a complete piece of 'HIV RNA' (or the transcribed DNA) ever been proved to exist.

Dr. Stefan Lanka stated: "I found that when they are speaking about HIV they are not speaking about a virus. They are speaking about cellular characteristics and activities of cells under very special conditions...I realized that the whole group of viruses to which HIV is said to belong, the retroviruses, in fact do not exist at all." (Zenger's Magazine, December, 1998).

We need to 'raise awareness' that:
'HIV' is not a retrovirus.
'HIV' is not an STI/STD.
'HIV' does not cause 'AIDS'.
No one is 'living with HIV.'

Crystal meth can make you test 'HIV' positive       01/18/07 04:26 AM Alex Russell

In the United Kingdom from January 18, 2007 crystal meth is to be reclassified in the UK as a “Class A” drug. Crystal meth is now classed among the most harmful drugs. Poppers (Amyl-, Butyl-, and Isobutyl-Nitrite) should also now be upgraded and reclassified as a “Class A” drug because the illegal drugs long-term effects can be lethal to gay men’s health. In the early 1980s poppers were documented to cause the development of KS (Kaposi's sarcoma) which was one of the original ‘AIDS’ defining conditions. Crystal meth and poppers are contributing to ‘AIDS’ amongst gay men and not the hypothetical ‘HIV’. Chemical agents in drugs like crystal meth and cocaine can stimulate cells to express hitherto dormant passenger viruses which are then misidentified as being the hypothetical ‘HIV’. Crystal meth was recently found to manufacture a synthetic (artificial) ‘new strain of HIV’ in a New York patient. It has been argued and demonstrated that crystal meth is making gay men test ‘HIV’ positive (and – ironically – not the non-isolated ‘HIV’). The Body readers may be too young to remember that up to 1983 ‘AIDS’ was originally called GRID (Gay Related Immune Deficiency) and was acknowledged to be caused by recreational drug addiction on the commercial gay scene. Remember: all the original ‘AID’S cases in the United States were young gay men who were recreational drug users with PCP and KS; and all the heavy crystal meth and poppers-uses had KS. To repeat: crystal meth, along with ecstasy, special K, MDA, quaaludes, LSD, cocaine, and poppers were seen as the original causes of ‘AIDS’ amongst gay men in the late 1970s and the early 1980s before ‘HIV’ was ‘invented’ as the ‘politically correct’ cause of ‘AIDS’. But today we (conveniently) forget that in the early 1980s the medical literature considered ‘AIDS’ to be GRID (Gay Related Immune Deficiency) caused by the drug-induced gay life and history now shows this hypothesis to be correct (even if ‘politically incorrect’ and ‘unfashionable’). As Prof. Peter Duesberg has observed: in the West, ‘AIDS’ is caused by long-term recreational drug use and in the developing world ‘AIDS’ is caused by TB, malaria and disease conditions relating to poverty and malnutrition. We are now seeing the spread of drug-induced ‘AIDS’ in Russia where there are growing drug epidemics; globally, wherever we see drug epidemics we also see the spread of 'false-HIV-positivity' because recreational drugs are well know now to make the non-specific ‘HIV’ tests to run ‘positive’. No one is ‘HIV positive’ – they are 'drug-positive’. Recreational drugs are making many gay men test ‘HIV’ positive. We must call on the Terrence Higgins Trust and Gay Men Fighting AIDS to warn gay men that crystal meth and poppers can cause ‘AIDS’ amongst gay men and crystal meth and cocaine are well documented (in the medical literature) to make the non-specific ‘HIV’ tests to run ‘positive’. The THT and GMFA have been irresponsibly and unethically been misinforming gay men for over 20 years now of the Drug/AIDS hypothesis whilst uncritically endorsing the profitable but still unproven HIV/AIDS hypothesis. Gay men are not testing ‘HIV’ positive because of ‘HIV’ but because of ‘life-style choices’ like recreational drug use – but the THT & GMFA – and the gay community (whatever that is) are still in ‘denial’ about the true situation and still need blind ‘HIV’ belief to mask this reality (also because gay men never want to grow up and love living in a fantasy world like the ‘HIV’ fantasy world). Whilst the THT has called the reclassification of crystal meth as a “pragmatic move” that brings it in line with other drugs of this nature, it does not go far enough in warning gay men that it can cause 'AIDS' through long term use. The THT and GMFA should also demand the upgrading of poppers to a “Class A” drug but they will never do this because poppers make millions of pounds profit for the commercial gay scene where pink profit is always seen as far more important than gay men’s health. Will Nutland, the THTs head of health promotion stated: “Experiences from other parts of the world show us that crystal meth can have a detrimental effect on communities as well as the lives of individuals,” said “This decision increases the powers and resources available to the police and enables them to do more to tackle crystal meth use in the UK. However, reclassification needs to come hand in hand with funding for education and effective treatment services.” Recreational drugs like crystal meth are actually causing ‘AIDS’ (GRID) amongst gay men as well as making them test ‘HIV’ positive and it is high time that the Terrence Higgins Trust and Gay Men Fighting AIDS began to ‘inform’ them of these brute facts - and stop living in the cosy careerist and concealed ‘HIV’ mass-hypnosis group-fantasy trance. When will the THT and GMFA wake up from their politics of denial and warn gay men of the real causes of ‘AIDS’ (GRID) and ‘inform’ gay men that ‘HIV’ does not exist?

World AIDS Day 2006: Raising 'HIV/AIDS' Awareness       A.R. 12/01/06 06:16 AM

World AIDS Day 2006: Raising 'HIV/AIDS' Awareness We urgently need to raise 'HIV/AIDS' Awareness to stop the epidemic spread of AIDS-related Myths, HIV-related Lies and Pharmogenocide: Iatrogenic 'AIDS' ('AIDS' caused by 'anti-retroviral' drugs). World AIDS Day should be renamed as World LIES Day - for World AIDS Day is a day of Lies, Lies, and Lies to keep the 'HIV' Lie Machine and 'HIV' Careerists continue with their profitable pharmogenocide lies. We need to 'raise awareness' that: 'HIV' is not a retrovirus. 'HIV' is not an STI/STD. 'HIV' does not cause 'AIDS'. No one is 'living with HIV.' No one is 'HIV' positive. Cell-free 'HIV' has never been found or recovered in fresh samples of semen or blood. The fact to remember is that cell-free infectious 'HIV' viral particles have never, repeat never, been recovered from fresh donor semen and blood. 'HIV' have never been visualised under electron microscopy. Whilst 'HIV' is not an infection, 'HIV' Ideology is highly 'infectious' and 'contagious' and 'spread' through the 'HIV' Interpellation techniques such as the highly hypnotic 'HIV' Testing ritual rites of 'HIV' Indoctrination and 'HIV' Propaganda - with pernicious lies like: 'Everyone is at Risk!' There is no such thing as 'HIV' Science only 'HIV' Politics, 'HIV' Propaganda, 'HIV' Theology - for 'HIV' has become the new 'GOD': blind 'GOD' Belief has been displaced by blind 'HIV' Belief. But the weak ones of the world want to believe in 'God' - the weak ones of the world want to believe in 'HIV': they need something to worship and fear all at once: yet 'GOD' - like 'HIV' - does not exist. The weak ones of the world - 'the they' - want to believe in nothing rather than themselves: they need the 'nothing-GOD' - they need the 'nothing-HIV'. If you tell 'the they' - the weak ones of the world - that 'GOD' and 'HIV' do not exist they will become hysterical, irrational, panic, and scream a stream of invective expletives and emotive abuse at you pulling chimpanzee grimaces and spitting at you and then drooling like a rabid dog growling with madness and sadness: for they desperately need a big daddy father figure to fuck them into submissive passivity of slave morality: 'HIV' is the new 'GOD' they need to control them, order them, to rule them, to enslave them: 'HIV' Belief like 'GOD' Belief is Slave Morality! Both 'GOS' and 'HIV' have never been isolated as unique identities in themselves but are an epiphenmomenon of a thing yet unidentified and thus misidentified: there is not GOD' like there is no 'HIV'. The (political) taxonomic classification of 'HIV' was a tragic case of mistaken identity: the thing had no properties of the name baptised: 'it' was never proven to cause 'immunodeficiency' or even to be a 'virus' at all. The taxonomic classification of 'HIV' (22-23 May, 1986) was ostensibly a strategic invention to present a nomenclature that would unify a diversely identified putative 'retrovirus': human T-cell lymphotropic virus type III ('HTLV-III'), immunodeficiency-associated virus ('IDAV'), aids-associated retrovirus ('ARV') and lymphadenopathy-associated virus ('LAV'). The not so hidden agenda behind this politically expedient move was to enforce the 'belief' that an alleged 'human retrovirus' caused 'immunodeficiency'. Like 'GOD' does not exist 'HIV' does not exist so we must de-programme and 'raise awareness' amongst 'diagnosed' (hypnotised) homosexuals and blacks that they are not 'HIV' positive: they must be 'informed' of the following facts: 'HI'V is not sexually transmitted. It is only ever been an assumption that 'HIV' is an STI based on the apparent existence of clusters of cases. 'HIV' is merely an endogenous marker for oxidative stress, antigenic overload and recreational drug use in the West. Testing 'HIV positive' merely indicates a cluster of people who had indulged in identical behaviour: it is important to remember that originally clusters of cases of beriberi, pellagra and scurvy were also assumed to be caused by a transmissible infection: all this was subsequently shown to be totally wrong. Beriberi, pellagra and scurvy were not caused by a transmissible agent but were all caused by a shared vitamin deficiency. Similarly: 'AIDS' is not caused by a transmissible agent ('HIV') but by exposure to multiple pathogenic insults caused by life style in the West and by well known endemic conditions relating to Third World countries. No one 's 'HIV' positive at all. Hans Gelderblom of Berlin's Robert Koch Institute co-authored the first paper in Virology, March 1997, showing 'purified HIV' to be 'purified microvesicles'. What was assumed to be 'purified HIV' was in fact "an excess of vesicles" - particles of cellular proteins. The hypothetical 'HIV' is in fact a collection of endogenous microvesicles and cellular proteins (which also never seem to form particles - so how can they be infectious)? Cell-free viral 'HIV' particles have never ever been visualised in any freshly donated bodily fluid including semen, blood, etc. 'HIV' has never ever proven to be a sexually transmitted retrovirus. As Virologist Dr. Stefan Lanka observed: The rules demonstrating the existence of HIV (and retroviruses in general) were never adhered to by those who devised them nor were they ever validated. No particle of HIV has ever been obtained pure, free of contaminants; nor has a complete piece of 'HIV RNA' (or the transcribed DNA) ever been proved to exist. Dr. Stefan Lanka stated: "I found that when they are speaking about HIV they are not speaking about a virus. They are speaking about cellular characteristics and activities of cells under very special conditions...I realized that the whole group of viruses to which HIV is said to belong, the retroviruses, in fact do not exist at all." (Zenger's Magazine, December, 1998). 'HIV/AIDS' (pseudo)science is consensus science and consensus science is bad science: it is only those who have thought beyond, around or above the prevailing paradigm who have ever truly advanced the course of science and medicine. Those who believe that something is true because 'everybody says so' would do well to remember the wrong opinions concerning scurvy, pelllagra, beriberi, and smon - and blush for shame. "A theory is a good theory if it satisfies two requirements: It must accurately describe a large class of observations on the basis of a model that contains only a few arbitrary elements, and it must make definite predictions about the results of future observations." Stephen Hawking None of the predictions based on the 'HIV/AIDS' hypothesis has ever been fulfilled and never can be because the hypothesis is wrong. "There is no proof that HIV causes AIDS - for many reasons but most importantly, because there is no proof that HIV exists." Eleni Papadopulos-Eleopulos, Is HIV the cause of AIDS?, Continuum, Autumn 1997. "The HIV hypothesis ranks with the 'bad air' theory for malaria and the 'bacterial infection' theory of beriberi and pellagra [caused by nutritional deficiencies]. It is a hoax that became a scam." Dr. Bernard Forscher, Conspiracy of Silence, The Sunday Times, 3 April 1994. "Scientists will then have to come to terms with the awful fact that the AIDS epidemic was a mirage manufactured by scientists who believed that integrity could be maintained amidst the diverting influences of big money, prestige and politics." Professor Hiram Caton, Conspiracy of Silence, The Sunday Times, April 1994. "I propose there are no human retroviruses. 'HIV' is not Human, it has never been proven to be the cause of Immunodeficiency, and is not a Virus, but a misinterpreted artefact of human and simian cell cultures. Therefore the acronym 'HIV' is wrong on all counts." Michel Verney-Elliott, 'SIV' and Poliovaccination - A Shot In The Foot?, 1999. "I found that when they are speaking about HIV they are not speaking about a virus. They are speaking about cellular characteristics and activities of cells under very special conditions...I realized that the whole group of viruses to which HIV is said to belong, the retroviruses, in fact do not exist at all." Dr. Stefan Lanka, Virologist, Zenger's, December, 1998. "Where is the research that says HIV is the cause of AIDS? If there is evidence that HIV causes AIDS, there should be scientific documents which either singly or collectively demonstrate that fact, at least with a high probability. There is no such document." Dr. Kary Mullis, Biochemist, 1993 Nobel Prize for Chemistry, The Sunday Times, 28 November 1993. "The HIV-causes-AIDS dogma represents the grandest and perhaps the most morally destructive fraud that has ever been perpetrated on the young men and women of the Western world." Dr. Charles Thomas, Conspiracy of Silence, The Sunday Times, April 1994. To end on a humorous note: Bono, the aging singer of the band U2 is famous throughout the world for being a creepy AIDS Pharmogenocidist careerist. Playing at a recent U2 concert in Glasgow, Scotland, Bono asked the audience for total quiet and then in the silence started to slowly clap his hands, once every few seconds. Holding the audience in total silence, he said into the microphone, "Every time I clap my hands, a child in Africa dies." A voice with a broad Scottish accent, from near the front of the crowd, pierces the silence... "Well, fucking stop doin' it then!" So be made aware: no one is 'HIV' positive. 'HIV does not exist.

'AIDS' is accelerated ageing and not caused by 'HIV'
      08/22/06 04:23 AM

A recent development in America shows people over the age of 60 testing so-called 'HIV' positive' - so what we call 'AID$' in young people is really a form of accelerated aging and old people testing 'HIV' positive is a natural phenomenon - as the 'HIV' test is a test for the aging process and a life time's collection of anti-body complexes - so the 'test' is an endogenous marker for the history of the patient's cumulative pathologies and the aging process (and nothing to do with 'HIV').

Thus the vast majority of people over the age of 65 would test 'HIV' positive! When young people succumb to full-blown 'AID$' it is as if they are fighting a life-times diseases concentrated into a short space of time and the immune-system just cannot cope. Young homosexuals with 'AID$' always look prematurely aged: gay men of 30 look like 75 plus - just like long-term recreational drug users who also looked aged. What we call 'AID$' in the West is accelerated aging amongst gay men and recreational drug addicts brought about by massive recreational drug use, repeated STDs resulting in massive dependency on broad spectrum antibioltics which lose there efficacy.

The arbitrary and non-specific 'viral load' test has nothing to do with the alleged amount of 'HIV' in the blood stream or the accelerated aging process of 'AID$' yet it has become the surrogate marker for the hard selling of AVRs (anti-retroviral drugs) to diminish an alleged high 'viral load' - but they do not improve health or show a decrease in mortality.

Whilst highly expensive 'AVRs' (anti retroviral drugs) do not cure 'AID$' but merely target a chaemeric 'virus', bowel cancer drugs like Avastin and Erbitux have been turned down in the UK deemed as not being 'cost effective'. We are told that bowel cancer is the third most common cancer in the UK, with around 50 people dying each day from the disease. Yet how many die each day from 'AIDS' in the UK? One? Two? And usually die by iatrogenic-'AIDS' as well.

It affects one in 18 people and represents roughly 13 per cent of all new cancer cases in men and women. As far as we know bowel cancer - unlike 'AID$' - is not a self-inflicted condition - so why should people with bowel cancer be penalised whilst homosexuals and drug users with 'AID$' be exempt and given preferential treatment in the UK? Why is 'AID$' always given priority over other disease-conditions?

There are no such drug-formulae as 'AVRs' or 'HAART' (Highly Active Antiretroviral Therapy) and they are certainly not 'cost effective' anyway so why were they licensed? Highly expensive 'AVRs' are a total waste of scarce NHS resources because they do not cure 'AID$' but target a phantom 'retrovirus' of virtual virology.

So which should be the priority disease for treatment in the UK: - unfashionable and boring bowel cancer or the politically-correct self-inflicted high-life-style condition of choice called 'AID$'?

Bowel cancer affects us all - 'AID$' does not. 'HIV' does not cause 'AID$'.

Telomers from HIV/AIDS patients are reduced in length compared to age matched controls and the reduction correlates to stage of infection. At least 1 kilobase difference in length compared with uninfected age matched controls is noticeable in patients before AIDS. Once AIDS is established the difference is greater. Our study material is PBL from 50 HIV infected patients in different stages of the disease compared with agematched controls without HIV infection or with other infections. Since this difference in telomer length is observed in a mixed cell population where the HIV susceptible cells are in minority we assume that CD4 lymphocyte cell death and replacement during HIV infection results in an ageing of a stem cell pool common to cells other than the lymphocytes. This results in a general ageing process which is compatible with the clinical presentation. We hope to present telomer studies from other cellular compartments distinct from the blood lymphoid system

Reply to John Moore and Nicoli Nattrass

London: 23rd June, 2006

Dear John Moore and Nicoli Nattrass,

In your article 'Deadly Quackery' (Opinion, The New York Times, 4th June, 2006), you stated:
"H.I.V. causes AIDS. This is not a controversial claim but an established fact, based on more than 20 years of solid science."

Contrary to your unfounded claim, this is not an "established fact" but a proposition, a hypothesis, an assumption based entirely upon an arbitrary correlation between 'HIV' (whatever that is) and 'AIDS' (whatever that is). Correlation is not proof of causation. The case of the haemophiliacs proves that HIV cannot be the cause of AIDS.

Soon after HIV tests were introduced in 1985, it was noticed that many haemophiliacs were shown to be 'HIV positive'. Robert Gallo seized upon this as evidence that AIDS was caused by an infectious, transmissible organism, presumed to have been conveyed to the haemophiliacs as a contaminant in their clotting factor preparations.

However, in the light of subsequent research, we can now see that the case of haemophiliacs, far from proving the existence of a transmissible retrovirus(HIV) alleged to have contaminated their clotting factor, proves conclusively, in fact, quite the reverse: HIV is not - and cannot be - the cause of AIDS.

Why did haemophiliacs start to die in appreciable numbers only after HIV was "discovered" in 1983? Surely if this alleged retrovirus was the cause of AIDS’ we would have noticed their premature deaths before 1983: and why didn't haemophiliacs die from KS (Kaposi's sarcoma) and PCP (pneumocystis carinii pneumonia), the two original "AIDS" defining diseases?

Gallo tried to make the case that AIDS was caused by a transmissible agent and cited cases of haemophiliacs whom it was assumed were infected via the clotting factor VIII. This assumption was based on two premises that subsequently proved to be totally false: a) the amount of putative virus in a plasma donor/seller's blood and b) that the virus would survive the manufacture of factor VIII from the pooled plasma.

Uncritical scientists and medics accepted Gallo's assumption. It soon became apparent, however, that the supposition was wrong. First, it was assumed that plasma donors/sellers were infected with HIV’ and carrying huge titres of cell-free infectious virus particles that resulted in the contamination of the pooled plasma used in the manufacturer of factor VIII. Sometimes, these pools were as large as 30,000 donations of 600 millilitres (ml) of plasma. It was suggested that there was sufficient cell-free "HIV" in some of the donors to contaminate the whole batch. This supposed a massive titre of millions, if not billions, of viral particles in the infected donors. This was subsequently proved to be wrong. In the nearly 200,000 published scientific papers on HIV/AIDS, not one claims to have found a titre of more than 10 infectious particles per cubic ml of blood/plasma ( and even this negligible titre was based on surrogate markers!). There is no way that these negligible amounts of HIV, even if proven to exist, could have contaminated so much factor VIII that virtually all the haemophiliacs could be deemed infected with HIV. As Peter Duesberg rightly pointed out, the average amount of virus’ claimed to be present in the plasma or blood of an HIV-infected individual, stands at between 1 and 1.7 infectious viral particles per cubic ml, which is absolutely negligible.

Thus, paucity of virus rules out the suggestion that HIV was transmitted to so many haemophiliacs in a comparatively short space of time.

Studies subsequent to 1985 showed that HIV cannot survive long outside the host's body. This is confirmed by studies showing that spilled HIV’ positive blood samples or spoiled laboratory cultures resulted in the quick death of the alleged "virus." It was further discovered, and admitted by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), that dried HIV does not survive. Therefore, factor VIII that is subjected to cryoprecipitation (freeze drying) could not possibly contain viable, cell-free, infectious HIV, even if there had been any putative "virus" in the mix to begin with, which is extremely unlikely for reasons described above.

It was the 99 percent impurities in factor VIII that caused the immune suppression (AIDS) seen in haemophiliacs. Hence, the early discovery that seroconversion in haemophiliacs seems to depend on the amount and duration of consumption - it is age and dose-related.. They were dependent on a product that would eventually kill them. Also, as Duesberg cynically observed, "Even haemophiliacs are not immortal."

The introduction of AZT - administered in enormous doses - rapidly killed many haemophiliacs. Their premature deaths exactly coincided with the fast tracking of AZT to haemophiliacs on 'compassionate' grounds in 1986-7
Haemophiliac mortality increased only after the introduction of AZT in 1986. Since about half of Darby's 2,037 severe haemophiliacs were already HIV-positive by this time, surely HIV-caused mortality should have exerted a detectable influence prior to 1985 in this group. Only Duesberg's theory can explain why the explosion of haemophiliac mortality should occur only on the heels of HIV testing: The cytotoxic pharmaceutical drugs and psychological terror that invariably accompany a positive HIV test also contributed to the increased mortality.

In January 1994, the CDC communicated the following experimental data and conclusion: "In order to obtain data on the survival of HIV [in factor V111 clotting factor], laboratory studies have required the use of artificially high concentrations of laboratory grown virus ... the amount of virus studied is not found in human specimens or any place else in nature ... it does not spread or maintain infectiousness outside its host. Although these unnatural concentrations of HIV can be kept alive under precisely controlled and limited laboratory conditions, CDC studies have shown that drying of even these high concentrations of HIV reduces the number of infectious viruses by 90 to 99 percent within several hours. Since the HIV concentrations used in laboratory studies are much higher than those actually found in blood or other body specimens, drying of HIV-infected human blood or other body fluids reduces the theoretical risk of environmental transmission to that which has been observed - essentially zero." (My emphasis.)
Ironically, the very original suggestion that haemophiliacs were proof of the HIV/AIDS hypothesis can now be used to deconstruct this redundant and failed paradigm. There is absolutely no way that HIV could have been transmitted via commercial clotting factors.

I would like to conclude with science journalist Christine Johnson's critical observations: "No one has actually seen HIV in blood plasma. Its presence is inferred from the results of indirect and non-specific techniques applied to virus cultures. AIDS expert Jay Levy of the University of California was able to find what he believed were HIV particles in the plasma of only 30 percent of the AIDS patients he studied, and then, it was at a low concentration - 10 infectious particles per millilitre. Levy concedes that this isn't enough to establish an infection."

It is widely accepted that the surface of HIV must be studded with knobs containing the protein gp120, which is crucial to the virus's ability to infect cells. But experts such as Hans Gelderblom of the Koch Institute in Berlin, who has conducted most of the electron micrography studies of HIV, say that the virus loses its knobs when it buds from the cell. This means that cell-free virus is incapable of infecting other cells. Since plasma does not contain cells, if HIV were present, it would not be inside a cell and thus it would not be capable of causing an infection.

In addition, there is the dilution factor. Factor VIII concentrate is made from the blood of thousands of donors pooled together. Statistically, only one or two of these donors might be infected, so by the time their blood is merged with that of uninfected donors, only a few copies of HIV, or even none whatsoever, would be present per millilitre. (See "Bad Blood or Bad Science: Are haemophiliacs with AIDS diagnoses really infected with HIV?" by Christine Johnson in Continuum magazine, Volume 5, No. 4.)

The CDC accepts that a positive test in haemophiliacs is not proof of HIV infection: "It is possible that antibody to LAV [=HIV] is acquired passively from immunoglobulins found in factor VIII concentrates.... Likewise, it is possible that seropositivity is caused not by infectious virus but by immunization with non-infectious LAV or LAV proteins derived from virus disrupted during the processing of plasma into factor VIII concentrate." (Evatt, 1985.)

Since in most cases the time between phlebotomy and conversion of pooled plasma to factor VIII concentrate is considerably greater than three hours, factor VIII is made from plasma which is cell free and, since the late 1970s, factor VIII has been supplied as a dry powder, which may spend months awaiting use, how can one reconcile the above facts with the view that haemophiliacs are infected with HIV via contaminated factor VIII concentrates?

"H.I.V. causes AIDS. This is not a controversial claim but an established fact, based on more than 20 years of solid science."

Contrary to your unfounded claim, this is not an "established fact" but a proposition, a hypothesis, an assumption based entirely upon an arbitrary correlation between 'HIV' (whatever that is) and 'AIDS' (whatever that is).  Correlation is not proof of causation. The case of the haemophiliacs proves that HIV cannot be the cause of AIDS.

Soon after HIV tests were introduced in 1985, it was noticed that many haemophiliacs were shown to be 'HIV positive'. Robert Gallo seized upon this as evidence that AIDS was caused by an infectious, transmissible organism, presumed to have been conveyed to the haemophiliacs as a contaminant in their clotting factor preparations.

However, in the light of subsequent research, we can now see that the case of haemophiliacs, far from proving the existence of a transmissible retrovirus(HIV) alleged to have contaminated their clotting factor, proves conclusively, in fact, quite the reverse: HIV is not - and cannot be - the cause of AIDS.

Why did haemophiliacs start to die in appreciable numbers only after HIV was "discovered" in 1983? Surely if this alleged retrovirus was the cause of AIDS’ we would have noticed their premature deaths before 1983: and why didn't haemophiliacs die from KS (Kaposi's sarcoma) and PCP (pneumocystis carinii pneumonia), the two original "AIDS" defining diseases?

Gallo tried to make the case that AIDS was caused by a transmissible agent and cited cases of haemophiliacs whom it was assumed were infected via the clotting factor VIII. This assumption was based on two premises that subsequently proved to be totally false: a) the amount of putative virus in a plasma donor/seller's blood and b) that the virus would survive the manufacture of factor VIII from the pooled plasma.

           Uncritical scientists and medics accepted Gallo's assumption. It soon became apparent, however, that the supposition was wrong. First, it was assumed that plasma donors/sellers were infected with HIV’ and carrying huge titres of cell-free infectious virus particles that resulted in the contamination of the pooled plasma used in the manufacturer of factor VIII. Sometimes, these pools were as large as 30,000 donations of 600 millilitres (ml) of plasma. It was suggested that there was sufficient cell-free "HIV" in some of the donors to contaminate the whole batch. This supposed a massive titre of millions, if not billions, of viral particles in the infected donors. This was subsequently proved to be wrong. In the nearly 200,000 published scientific papers on HIV/AIDS, not one claims to have found a titre of more than 10 infectious particles per cubic ml of blood/plasma ( and even this negligible titre was based on surrogate markers!). There is no way that these negligible amounts of HIV, even if proven to exist, could have contaminated so much factor VIII that virtually all the haemophiliacs could be deemed infected with HIV. As Peter Duesberg rightly pointed out, the average amount of virus’ claimed to be present in the plasma or blood of an HIV-infected individual, stands at between 1 and 1.7 infectious viral particles per cubic ml, which is absolutely negligible.

Thus, paucity of virus rules out the suggestion that HIV was transmitted to so many haemophiliacs in a comparatively short space of time.

Studies subsequent to 1985 showed that HIV cannot survive long outside the host's body. This is confirmed by studies showing that spilled HIV’ positive blood samples or spoiled laboratory cultures resulted in the quick death of the alleged "virus." It was further discovered, and admitted by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), that dried HIV does not survive. Therefore, factor VIII that is subjected to cryoprecipitation (freeze drying) could not possibly contain viable, cell-free, infectious HIV, even if there had been any putative "virus" in the mix to begin with, which is extremely unlikely for reasons described above.

It was the 99 percent impurities in factor VIII that caused the immune suppression (AIDS) seen in haemophiliacs.  Hence, the early discovery that seroconversion in haemophiliacs seems to depend on the amount and duration of consumption - it is age and dose-related..  They were dependent on a product that would eventually kill them.  Also, as Duesberg cynically observed, "Even haemophiliacs are not immortal."

The introduction of AZT - administered in enormous doses - rapidly killed many haemophiliacs. Their premature deaths exactly coincided with the fast tracking of AZT to haemophiliacs on 'compassionate' grounds in 1986-7

Haemophiliac mortality increased only after the introduction of AZT in 1986. Since about half of Darby's 2,037 severe haemophiliacs were already HIV-positive by this time, surely HIV-caused mortality should have exerted a detectable influence prior to 1985 in this group. Only Duesberg's theory can explain why the explosion of haemophiliac mortality should occur only on the heels of HIV testing: The cytotoxic pharmaceutical drugs and psychological terror that invariably accompany a positive HIV test also contributed to the increased mortality.

In January 1994, the CDC communicated the following experimental data and conclusion: "In order to obtain data on the survival of HIV [in factor V111 clotting factor], laboratory studies have required the use of artificially high concentrations of laboratory grown virus ... the amount of virus studied is not found in human specimens or any place else in nature ... it does not spread or maintain infectiousness outside its host. Although these unnatural concentrations of HIV can be kept alive under precisely controlled and limited laboratory conditions, CDC studies have shown that drying of even these high concentrations of HIV reduces the number of infectious viruses by 90 to 99 percent within several hours. Since the HIV concentrations used in laboratory studies are much higher than those actually found in blood or other body specimens, drying of HIV-infected human blood or other body fluids reduces the theoretical risk of environmental transmission to that which has been observed - essentially zero." (My emphasis.)

Ironically, the very original suggestion that haemophiliacs were proof of the HIV/AIDS hypothesis can now be used to deconstruct this redundant and failed paradigm. There is absolutely no way that HIV could have been transmitted via commercial clotting factors.

I would like to conclude with science journalist Christine Johnson's critical observations: "No one has actually seen HIV in blood plasma. Its presence is inferred from the results of indirect and non-specific techniques applied to virus cultures. AIDS expert Jay Levy of the University of California was able to find what he believed were HIV particles in the plasma of only 30 percent of the AIDS patients he studied, and then, it was at a low concentration - 10 infectious particles per millilitre. Levy concedes that this isn't enough to establish an infection."

It is widely accepted that the surface of HIV must be studded with knobs containing the protein gp120, which is crucial to the virus's ability to infect cells. But experts such as Hans Gelderblom of the Koch Institute in Berlin, who has conducted most of the electron micrography studies of HIV, say that the virus loses its knobs when it buds from the cell. This means that cell-free virus is incapable of infecting other cells. Since plasma does not contain cells, if HIV were present, it would not be inside a cell and thus it would not be capable of causing an infection.

In addition, there is the dilution factor. Factor VIII concentrate is made from the blood of thousands of donors pooled together. Statistically, only one or two of these donors might be infected, so by the time their blood is merged with that of uninfected donors, only a few copies of HIV, or even none whatsoever, would be present per millilitre. (See "Bad Blood or Bad Science: Are haemophiliacs with AIDS diagnoses really infected with HIV?" by Christine Johnson in Continuum magazine, Volume 5, No. 4.)

The CDC accepts that a positive test in haemophiliacs is not proof of HIV infection: "It is possible that antibody to LAV [=HIV] is acquired passively from immunoglobulins found in factor VIII concentrates.... Likewise, it is possible that seropositivity is caused not by infectious virus but by immunization with non-infectious LAV or LAV proteins derived from virus disrupted during the processing of plasma into factor VIII concentrate." (Evatt, 1985.)

Since in most cases the time between phlebotomy and conversion of pooled plasma to factor VIII concentrate is considerably greater than three hours, factor VIII is made from plasma which is cell free and, since the late 1970s, factor VIII has been supplied as a dry powder, which may spend months awaiting use, how can one reconcile the above facts with the view that haemophiliacs are infected with HIV via contaminated factor VIII concentrates?

Yours sincerely,

The Case of the Haemophiliacs proves that HIV cannot be the cause of AIDS

FICTION:

“acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) was first recognized in 1981 and has since become a major worldwide pandemic. AIDS is caused by the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). By leading to the destruction and/or functional impairment of cells of the immune system, notably CD4+ T cells, HIV progressively destroys the body's ability to fight infections and certain cancers.”

This statement is pure assumption based upon an unproven hypothesis and there is no published paper in the scientific literature that supports this claim that HIV exists and causes AIDS. In the Gallo and Montagnier papers published in Science by two research groups, there is no proof of the isolation of a retrovirus from AIDS patients. In 1981 AIDS was not first recognised: what was first recognised was KS and PCP in gay men who had a long history of repeated STDs, massive dependence on broad spectrum antibiotics, and recreational drug and popper consumption (amyl nitrites). What was later invented as ‘HIV’ was merely an endogenous marker for certain risk behaviour.

FICTION: “Most AIDS symptoms result from the development of opportunistic infections and cancers associated with severe immunosuppression secondary to HIV.”

The alleged association is meaningless when you consider that one in three people will develop cancer independent of HIV. 38% of AIDS related diseases/conditions are not dependent on immune suppression: i.e: KS, dementia, diarrhea, etc.

FICTION: “The diseases associated with AIDS, such as PCP and Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC), are not caused by HIV but rather result from the immunosuppression caused by HIV disease.”

What is this hypothetical 'HIV disease'? How does HIV destroy cells? What is the mechanism? If you cannot say exactly how HIV destroys immune cells then you are not entitled to say it does. Association is not proof of causation. There is no such thing as 'HIV disease'.

FICTION: “AIDS and HIV infection are invariably linked in time, place and population group.”

So why the embarrassingly elastic ‘incubation’ period between hypothetical ‘infection’ and the on set of so-called ‘symptoms’ – in some case estimated to be as long as 25 years?


FICTION:: “HIV can be detected in virtually everyone with AIDS.”

Contrary to this claim, HIV has never been detected or found in anyone - with or without AIDS.

Cell-free HIV has never been found or recovered in fresh samples of semen or blood. The key fact to remember is that cell-free infectious HIV viral particles have never been recovered from fresh donor semen and blood. It is still an unproven hypothesis that HIV is an STD/STI.

The case of the haemophiliacs proves conclusively that HIV cannot be the cause of AIDS. Soon after HIV tests were introduced in 1985, it was noticed that many haemophiliacs were shown to be HIV positive.

I would like to conclude with some critical comments made by biophysicist Eleni Papadopulos-Eleopulos and colleagues:
* Even the CDC accepts that a positive test in haemophiliacs is not proof of HIV infection. "It is possible that antibody to LAV [=HIV] is acquired passively from immunoglobulins found in factor VIII concentrates.... Likewise, it is possible that seropositivity is caused not by infectious virus but by immunization with non-infectious LAV or LAV proteins derived from virus disrupted during the processing of plasma into factor VIII concentrate." (Evatt, 1985.)
* Levy and his colleagues have shown that the titre of HIV in plasma of HIV-infected individuals three, six or twelve hours after phlebotomy [blood donation] "dropped from up to 500 TCID/ml to 0." [TCID = tissue culture infectious dose.]
Since in most instances, if not all, the time between phlebotomy and conversion of pooled plasma to factor VIII concentrate is considerably greater than three hours, factor VIII is made from plasma which is cell free and, since the late 1970s, factor VIII has been supplied as a dry powder, which may spend weeks or months awaiting use, how can one reconcile the above facts with the view that haemophiliacs are infected with HIV via contaminated factor VIII concentrates? (Papadopulos, 1995b).

I would like to end with the conclusion from an interview with Eleni Papadopulos-Eleopulos:

“The proteins said to belong to HL23V were defined in the same manner as the HIV proteins. By antibody reactions. So, when the antibodies were shown to be non-specific, HL23V disappeared. In the case of HL23V it was relatively easy because the antibodies occurred in so many people who were never going to get leukaemia they were bound to be something unrelated and that's what was eventually proven at Sloan Kettering and the National Cancer Institute. My group thinks that scientists will eventually accept that the same is true of HIV antibodies. You see AIDS patients are inundated with antibodies to so many different things a few of these could easily react with two or three of the ten proteins present in the ‘HIV’ test. That's all that’s required to be HIV positive. In fact, there's now ample evidence that antibodies produced as a result of infection with the two germs that infect ninety percent of AIDS patients react with all the HIV proteins. I mean the germs known as mycobacteria and yeasts that between them cause two of the commonest AIDS defining diseases. We have a paper on this in press in the British journal Current Medical Research and Opinion. If that's the case how can anyone say these antibodies prove infection with HIV or that these diseases are caused by HIV?”

"All things are subject to interpretation whichever interpretation prevails at a given time is a function of power and not truth....Every elevation of man brings with it the overcoming of narrower interpretations...every strengthening and increase of power opens up new perspectives and means believing in new horizons."

Friedrich Nietzsche (1844-1900).

You stated: “It is so sad that a person cannot understand the science they are posting and reading. The age of the information you post is actually very old, it has been proven wrong many times over, but if you feel you want to deny the validity of HIV/Aids please do so. But you have to understand that the truth is above in the information I posted earlier, you may think that your views are the only right views, but so do the people who believe in Mormonism, Hinduism, Christianity, Buddhism, Jehovah.

Maybe you notice that people who have different opinions to the few denialist groups are not allowed to post on there sites, there posts are immediately removed because they do not want anything to be shown on there but there posts and outdated information that they keep changing the dates on to make them look like they are new. Most of us that are affected by this disease for so many years have seen this same information posted repeatedly. I guess you would not know about this though, but you seem intelligent enough to understand (I hope) that the information is not current, and is not wanted at this site just as the information refuting everything your group says is not wanted on their sites.”

Correct and objective information is never ‘old’ or ‘out dated’. Our counter-critique (information) is not wanted here because it deconstructs the HIV Ideological Belief System which is uncannily similar to Scientology as a frightening form of mind-body control. You need to ask yourself why you need this HIV Mind Control? Why do you need to believe HIV Science Fiction? Many gay men want to believe in HIV becuase they cannot take responsibility for their own actions and admit that thier lifestyle is killing them not HIV - they are in 'denial' that 'AIDS' is a self-inflicted lifestyle. Like 'AIDS' in Africa is due to poverty, malnutrition, TB and malaria - and nothing to do with HIV.

The information or rather disinformation at this HIV Ideology website is not current at all but built upon an error based upon the misconception that HIV exists and has been isolated. All the information presented here at this website is an error built and based upon a lie – HIV. HIV is an error we need to examine and subject to fresh open minded scrutiny – and not censorship – as is the case here. Censorship will not end the HIV Lie. HIV is an error that can never become true as Mahatma Gandhi observed: “An error can never become true however many times you repeat it. The truth can never be wrong, even if no one ever hears about it. Truth alone will endure; all the rest will be swept away before the tide of time.”

HIV Belief is a postmodern theology based upon superstition, denial, ignorance, fear and control like all regressive and reactionary religions. The weak need ‘HIV’ Belief like the weak need organised religion to control them just like those who believe in Mormonism, Hinduism, Christianity, Jehovah.

All information based upon the HIV/AIDS hypothesis is out of date because HIV has past its sell by date. The hallmark of a sound hypothesis is that predictions based upon it will be fulfilled. This has never been the case with the HIV/AIDS hypothesis despite the fact that they have continually finagled the figures and moved the goal posts in expanding the definition of ‘AIDS’ to make it into an equal opportunities disease. They remove any of the critical posts here at this site that deconstruct the absurdities, anomalies and the contradictions of the HIV/AIDS Ideological Belief System which threatens the obscene and vast profits of the HIV Pharmaceutical Industry.

Robert Gallo still has not been able to answer Roberto Giraldo and Etienne de Harven’s rebuttal to him: I wonder why not?

I would like to leave you all with the following quotes:

"The most formidable barrier to the advancement of science is the conventional wisdom of the dominant group."

Conrad Hal Waddington, Embryologist & Geneticist (1905-1975).

"There is no proof that HIV causes AIDS - for many reasons but most importantly, because there is no proof that HIV exists."

Eleni Papadopulos-Eleopulos, Is HIV the cause of AIDS?, Continuum, Autumn 1997.

"The HIV hypothesis ranks with the 'bad air' theory for malaria and the 'bacterial infection' theory of beriberi and pellagra [caused by nutritional deficiencies]. It is a hoax that became a scam."

Dr. Bernard Forscher, Conspiracy of Silence, The Sunday Times, 3 April 1994.

"Scientists will then have to come to terms with the awful fact that the AIDS epidemic was a mirage manufactured by scientists who believed that integrity could be maintained amidst the diverting influences of big money, prestige and politics."

Professor Hiram Caton, Conspiracy of Silence, The Sunday Times, April 1994.

"I propose there are no human retroviruses. 'HIV' is not Human, it has never been proven to be the cause of Immunodeficiency, and is not a Virus, but a misinterpreted artefact of human and simian cell cultures. Therefore the acronym 'HIV' is wrong on all counts."

Michel Verney-Elliott, 'SIV' and Poliovaccination - A Shot In The Foot?, 1999.

"I found that when they are speaking about HIV they are not speaking about a virus. They are speaking about cellular characteristics and activities of cells under very special conditions...I realized that the whole group of viruses to which HIV is said to belong, the retroviruses, in fact do not exist at all."

Dr. Stefan Lanka, Virologist, Zenger's, December, 1998.

"Where is the research that says HIV is the cause of AIDS? If there is evidence that HIV causes AIDS, there should be scientific documents which either singly or collectively demonstrate that fact, at least with a high probability. There is no such document."

Dr. Kary Mullis, Biochemist, 1993 Nobel Prize for Chemistry, The Sunday Times, 28 November 1993.

"The HIV-causes-AIDS dogma represents the grandest and perhaps the most morally destructive fraud that has ever been perpetrated on the young men and women of the Western world."

Dr. Charles Thomas, Conspiracy of Silence, The Sunday Times, April 1994.

An Open Letter to Andrew Sullivan, Time Magazine.

AIDS Myth Exposed   MSN Groups    Sent: 23/01/2006 21:59

Dear Andrew Sullivan:

Is TIME Magazine’s Blog ‘Drugs & Negs’ (Sunday, January 22, 2006) a sick, cynical joke, being pushed by pernicious profiteering ‘HIV’ pharmaceuticals? : 

 "In the current HIV prevention discussion, this idea [Jon Cohen, Protect or Disinhibit, New York Times, 22 January, 2006] is well worth airing and perhaps pursuing: Why not put all HIV-negative men on a simple anti-retroviral regimen as a prophylaxis, rather than as a treatment? In any single case, the likelihood of possible transmission drops (because the drugs kill off the virus before it can take hold of a new immune system). The big studies being done will help confirm whether there are collective behavioural adjustments that undermine the effort to reduce transmission. My own view is that gay men, if the studies pan out, could and perhaps should embark on a proactive campaign to get as many sexually active men as possible on meds. It's a way for HIV-negative men to do something which is not simply defensive in nature, and make decisions about their health in a moment outside the inevitable irrationality of a sexual encounter. We're used to taking pills after we've become sick. Why not take them before - as a prevention technique? Even a mild decline in transmission could drastically alter the dynamic of the epidemic - for the better. Next up: involve vulnerable African-American women in the same discussion."

 This idea is insane! This is pure ‘HIV’ pseudo science: insanity – madness – irrationality: the wicked world of ‘HIV’ virtual virology. Preventing what?  ‘HIV’ is not a ‘virus’. ‘HIV’ is not an ‘infection’. HIV is not an STD. No one on earth is ‘HIV’ positive.

To date: Cell-free HIV has never been found or recovered in fresh samples of semen or blood. The key fact to remember is that cell-free infectious HIV viral particles have never, repeat never, been recovered from fresh donor semen and blood. ‘HIV’ have never been visualised under electronmicroscopy.

Whilst ‘HIV’ is not an infection, ‘HIV’ Ideology is highly 'infectious' and 'contagious' and 'spread' through the ‘HIV’ Interpellation techniques such as HIV Testing ritual rites of ‘HIV’ Indoctrination and ‘HIV’ Incarceration. We must de-programme and  raise awareness amongst ‘diagnosed’ gay men that they are not ‘HIV’ positive: they must be ‘informed’ of the following facts:

HIV is not a retrovirus.
HIV is not an infectious agent.
HIV does not cause AIDS.
No one is ‘living with HIV’

HIV is not sexually transmitted. It is only ever been an assumption that HIV is an STI based on the apparent existence of clusters of cases. HIV is merely an endogenous marker for oxidative stress, antigenic overload and recreational drug use in the West.

Testing HIV positive merely indicates a cluster of people who had indulged in identical behaviour: it is important to remember that originally clusters of cases of beriberi, pellagra and scurvy were also assumed to be caused by a transmissible infection: all this was subsequently shown to be totally wrong. Beriberi, pellagra and scurvy were not caused by a transmissible agent but were all caused by a shared vitamin deficiency. Similarly: ‘AIDS’ is not caused by a transmissible agent (‘HIV’) but by exposure to multiple pathogenic insults caused by life style in the West and by well known endemic conditions relating to Third World countries.

Hans Gelderblom of Berlin's Robert Koch Institute co-authored the first paper in Virology, March 1997, showing 'purified HIV' to be 'purified microvesicles'. What was assumed to be 'purified HIV' was in fact "an excess of vesicles" - particles of cellular proteins. The hypothetical 'HIV' is in fact a collection of endogenous microvesicles and cellular proteins (which also never seem to form particles - so how can they be infectious)? Cell-free viral 'HIV' particles have never ever been visualised in any freshly donated bodily fluid including semen, blood, etc. 'HIV' has never ever proven to be a sexually transmitted retrovirus.

As Virologist Dr. Stefan Lanka observed: The rules demonstrating the existence of HIV (and retroviruses in general) were never adhered to by those who devised them nor were they ever validated. No particle of HIV has ever been obtained pure, free of contaminants; nor has a complete piece of 'HIV RNA' (or the transcribed DNA) ever been proved to exist.

Dr. Stefan Lanka stated:
“I found that when they are speaking about HIV they are not speaking about a virus. They are speaking about cellular characteristics and activities of cells under very special conditions...I realized that the whole group of viruses to which HIV is said to belong, the retroviruses, in fact do not exist at all.”
(Zenger's, December, 1998).

In the words of John Lauritsen:

“I still regard ‘AIDS’ as the greatest blunder and the greatest hoax in medical history… an epidemic of incompetence and an epidemic of lies…It's time for gay men to wake up, look at ‘AIDS’ rationally, and put an end to the sacrificial ritual. We didn't deserve this, and we should no longer go along with it.” (AIDS: A Death Cult, John Lauritsen, 4 January 2004).

The HIV Lie is both hypnotic and seductive because people prefer to believe in lies than in truth and in our society lies are lucrative. In 2006 we must all put an end to the terrorism of the HIV Lie.

This open Letter to Andrew Sullivan is dedicated to the memory of genius Yale mathematician Serge Lang (1927-2005).

"To an extent that undermines classical standards of science, some purported scientific results concerning 'HIV' and 'AIDS' have been handled by press releases, by disinformation, by low-quality studies, and by some suppression of information, manipulating the media and people at large. When the official scientific press does not report correctly, or obstructs views dissenting from those of the scientific establishment, it loses credibility and leaves no alternative but to find information elsewhere." Serge Lang, Challenges, Springer Verlag 1998.

Gay.com makes the following statement regarding their HIV message board:

“The HIV message boards are designed for people seeking support from their peers on issues related to HIV. Many newly diagnosed people benefit greatly by listening to the experiences of those that have been positive for some time, and people living with HIV have a great deal of advice, information and support to offer other GAY.COM visitors…GAY.COM will continue to provide the ‘Ask the Doctor’ service for medically related HIV questions answered by a HIV specialist Doctor”

Such so-called HIV specialist doctors and the ‘Ask the Doctor’ service should be ‘informing’ GAY.COM surfers and ‘AIDS’ sufferers the following in ‘raising HIV awareness’ in 2006:

HIV is not a retrovirus.
HIV is not an infectious agent.
HIV does not cause AIDS.
No one is ‘living with HIV’

HIV is not sexually transmitted. It is only ever been an assumption that HIV is an STI based on the apparent existence of clusters of cases. HIV is merely an endogenous marker for oxidative stress, antigenic overload and recreational drug use in the West.

Testing HIV positive merely indicates a cluster of people who had indulged in identical behaviour: it is important to remember that originally clusters of cases of beriberi, pellagra and scurvy were also assumed to be caused by a transmissible infection: all this was subsequently shown to be totally wrong. Beriberi, pellagra and scurvy were not caused by a transmissible agent but were all caused by a shared vitamin deficiency. Similarly: ‘AIDS’ is not caused by a transmissible agent (‘HIV’) but by exposure to multiple pathogenic insults caused by life style in the West and by well known endemic conditions relating to Third World countries.

To date: Cell-free HIV has never been found or recovered in fresh samples of semen or blood. The key fact to remember is that cell-free infectious HIV viral particles have never, repeat never, been recovered from fresh donor semen and blood. It is homophobic nonsense to say 'HIV' is sexually transmitted via anal sex as well as scientifically totally unproven. HIV is not an STD.

Hans Gelderblom of Berlin's Robert Koch Institute co-authored the first paper in Virology, March 1997, showing 'purified HIV' to be 'purified microvesicles'. What was assumed to be 'purified HIV' was in fact "an excess of vesicles" - particles of cellular proteins. The hypothetical 'HIV' is in fact a collection of endogenous microvesicles and cellular proteins (which also never seem to form particles - so how can they be infectious)? Cell-free viral 'HIV' particles have never ever been visualised in any freshly donated bodily fluid including semen, blood, etc. 'HIV' has never ever proven to be a sexually transmitted retrovirus.

As Virologist Dr. Stefan Lanka observed: The rules demonstrating the existence of HIV (and retroviruses in general) were never adhered to by those who devised them nor were they ever validated. No particle of HIV has ever been obtained pure, free of contaminants; nor has a complete piece of 'HIV RNA' (or the transcribed DNA) ever been proved to exist.

Dr. Stefan Lanka stated:
“I found that when they are speaking about HIV they are not speaking about a virus. They are speaking about cellular characteristics and activities of cells under very special conditions...I realized that the whole group of viruses to which HIV is said to belong, the retroviruses, in fact do not exist at all.” (Zenger's, December, 1998).

It must be remembered that in 1981, all the original GRID (Gay Related Immune Deficiency) cases had KS and PCP and were all heavy users of recreational drugs and the AIDS establishment at the time saw the drug/AIDS hypothesis as a viable and logical explanation of these early cases. All those with KS were all heavy abusers of poppers.

In reality in the West GRID is much more of an accurate description of what’s going on in the West than the vague acronym AIDS. But because gay community leaders found the term GRID offensive and politically incorrect, it was changed – largely to take the heat of the gays. Also AIDS was much more of an ‘equal opportunities disease’ where “everyone was at risk” of acquiring (even if we know this not to be true today).

The immunological-stressors of the 'gay life style' : oxidative stress, antigenic overload, recreational drug use, indiscriminate prescribing of broad spectrum antibiotics, flu jabs, untreated STDs, toxic semen from antiretroviral and heavy recreational drug abuse are a constellation of conditions we now nominate as ‘AIDS’ – but in reality is what rightly used to be called GRID. Today it would appear that the evidence points to something predominantly toxic rather than infectious being transmitted: an active/top gay man practicing ‘bare back’ sex and taking both recreational and antiviral drugs is transmitting all this toxic waste: so condoms may help to stop this spread and other real STDs. We need studies investigating the possibility and probability of toxic semen causing GRID.

Yet gay men would far rather believe that is HIV that is doing all the damage and not the toxicity of recreational and antiretroviral drugs: such are the politics of ‘denial’. HIV Belief is merely a ‘denial’ that ‘AIDS’ (GRID) is caused by the consumer gay life style. It must also be remembered that all the first ‘AIDS’ cases in the West were gay men with KS and PCP and all abused poppers.

The over use of antibiotics has played a major contribution to the development of ‘AIDS’ (GRID) in the West. This indiscriminate prescribing of broad spectrum antibiotics led to all sorts of problems that could not have been foreseen. The recent stories of fatalities from clostridium difficile are explained as resulting from an over use of antibiotics destroying beneficial bacteria which would normally have kept the clostrdium under control. In the early days of AIDS (GRID) there were wide spread reports of intractable ‘gay bowel syndrome’ caused by shigella, giardia lamblia, and amebiasis among many gut parasites – this was probably due entirely to the same mechanism. Gay men’s habitual dependence on antibiotics led to GRID and AIDS.

Toxoplasma gondii is a commonly occurring parasite found in cats and therefore presumably amongst people who keep cats: so why does toxoplasma gondii cause dementia and death principally in gay men? Over prescription of antibiotics would seem to be the reason.

All these common gut parasites - shigella, giardia lamblia, toxoplasma gondii, and amebiasis – would normally have been kept in check by friendly ‘good’ bacteria which were unfortunately killed off by the inappropriate use of the antibiotics that man gay men prophylactically like sweeties. This is why GRID/AIDS is largely – if unwittingly – a self inflicted condition amongst gay men and now can cost hundreds of thousands of pound per patient per year to treat but they are not treating GRID or AIDS – but HIV – which is merely a marker – and not a cause of GRID and AIDS.

Remember: HIV has never been truly isolated and HIV has never been proven to exist yet the BBC News (November 2005) reported that it costs: “hundreds of thousands of pounds per patient during their life time to treat HIV”. So it is costing the British tax payer hundreds of thousands of pounds per patient during their life time to treat a virtual virus that does not exist when the true complex causes of GRID amongst gay men are being ignored by denial: largely because it is perceived as ‘judgemental’ to ‘criticise’ the consumer gay life style as the cause of ‘AIDS’ (GRID): on the contrary: there are even leaflets offering gay men ‘advise’ on how to take recreational drugs safely with antiretroviral drugs and ‘AIDS’ chariot’s and HIV specialists still fail to warn gay men that poppers (amyl nitrite) can contribute to KS and ‘AIDS’ (GRID) because poppers are perceived ‘politically correct’ and make massive profits for the gay consumer industry.

Whilst HIV is not an infection, HIV Ideology is highly infectious and contagious and spread through the HIV Testing ritual rites of HIV Indoctrination and HIV Incarceration.

HIV Belief is psychologically contagious being spread through mass-hypnosis via the mass-media and also via HIV Education - that is: HIV Indoctrination and HIV Interpellation. And HIV Interpellation is very seductive and hypnotic acting like an ‘ideological cement’ (Louis Althusser) and security blanket giving the diagnosed subject an identity to believe in by be baptised: ‘HIV positive’ – and ‘coming out as ‘HIV’ positive (that is ‘being controlled’ and ‘contained’ as an ideological identity): Althusser’s theory of ‘ideological interpellation’ is aptly activated by the HIV Belief System which acts as a ‘social cement’ in ‘hailing the subject’ as ‘imagining’ itself to be ‘HIV positive’.  Such is the power of Ideology and ideological belief though HIV belief is really much more to do with theological belief than ideological belief.

Such ‘social cementing’ and ‘ideological interpellation’ is initiated by proclaiming: ‘I am HIV’. Thus to tell that person that they are not ‘HIV’ is to shatter that ideology: that illusion, interpellation, and indoctrination.

The epidemic of group hysteria is specific to certain groups, therefore HIV cannot be an epidemic of pathogenic origin. The HIV Cult – like Scientology - is an example of ‘epidemic hysteria’. AIDS (GRID) are also psychologically contagious.

Caspar Schmidt, in The Group-Fantasy Origins of AIDS, nominates ‘AIDS’ as a "bio-psycho-social disorder" and proposes that chronic and inescapable fear can elicit a biochemical reaction in the body, which in time causes "psychogenically-reduced cell-mediated immunity."

For Schmidt, ‘AIDS’ can be explained through the concept of group fantasy – people are collectively in a trance: "I would like to present the evidence available to me in support of the hypothesis: a) that AIDS is a typical example of epidemic hysteria, b) that the epidemic has at its core an unconscious group delusion, which can be called the group-fantasy of scapegoating, c) that the combination of these unconscious group tensions brought about a subtle and sophisticated, but nevertheless sacrificial witch hunt, in which the participants were the Moral Majority, d) that these attacks resulted in an epidemic of depression based mostly on shame; e) that the core sign of AIDS, the reduction of cell-mediated response, is one of the typical vegetative signs of severe depression; f) that the epidemic represents, in the group’s unconscious fantasies, an equivalent war, during which the group keeps careful count of the sacrifices; g) and finally that, since the epidemic is psychogenic, the prediction can be made that the group will decide when it should be over (when they have ‘had enough’), a decision which will be broadcast to the group members through the media, so that after a suitable lag period the epidemic will resolve and the incidence will descend from epidemic to endemic levels."

Author John Lauritsen expands the argument that psychosis and psychosomatic conditions are induced by the psychological terrorism of ‘HIV/AIDS’ propagandists: "Highly sophisticated psychological techniques are being used to make gay men perceive themselves as sick, and become sick, in order to qualify as consumers of AZT. The ‘Living With HIV’ campaign is, quite literally, a form of voodoo" – or government approved euthanasia. Thus the group fantasy of ‘HIV/AIDS’ unified a fragmented gay community with the solidarity of pseudo-disease-identity: ‘I’m HIV’.

How many people have committed suicide from being tested HIV positive and from HIV Terrorism: HIV bone-pointing death- sentencing? How many HIV Kubler-Ross Counsellors have sentenced those tested HIV positive to a premature death? Psycho-social factors have arguably contributed to the unnecessary deaths of thousands of gay men from testing HIV terrorism.

In 1980 Robert Gallo's HL23V was 'decommissioned', 'declassified', 'unnamed' and was agreed to be 'non-existent' - it is now time for the terrorising and sacrificial-signifier HIV to be 'decommissioned', 'declassified', 'unnamed' because the stigmatised signified thing is non-existent. What will be the devastating consequences of unnaming HIV?

We can only end HIV Stigmatism and HIV Terrorism by ending this HIV Occultism: that is HIV Belief and HIV Ideology and wake gay men up from the deep sleep of HIV Hypnosis and HIV Hysteria.

I realise how difficult it may be for many gay men diagnosed as HIV positive to give up their HIV Belief and HIV Benefits: indeed: giving up what many now perceive as the 'luxurious and lucrative' HIV Life Style and not forgetting all those thousands of HIV Careerists having to give up such prestigious and profitable posts. But sooner or later the HIV Edifice will crack ands crumble in ruins. In 2006 it is time to go back to the beginning again when GRID was the cause. We can only solve GRID by removing HIV from the equation: we need more GRID research and no more HIV research, which is at a dead end.

In the words of John Lauritsen:

“I still regard ‘AIDS’ as the greatest blunder and the greatest hoax in medical history… an epidemic of incompetence and an epidemic of lies…It's time for gay men to wake up, look at ‘AIDS’ rationally, and put an end to the sacrificial ritual. We didn't deserve this, and we should no longer go along with it.” (AIDS: A Death Cult, John Lauritsen, 4 January 2004).

The HIV Lie is both hypnotic and seductive because people prefer to believe in lies than in truth and in our society lies are lucrative. In 2006 we must all put an end to the terrorism of the HIV Lie.

The United Kingdom HIV Epidemic That Never Was:

How The AIDS Establishment Will Extricate Itself From The HIV Scam

By Alex Russell

"To an extent that undermines classical standards of science, some purported scientific results concerning 'HIV' and 'AIDS' have been handled by press releases, by disinformation, by low-quality studies, and by some suppression of information, manipulating the media and people at large.

Alex Russell is an artist and writer who lives and works in London, England. This article is dedicated to the memory of Serge Lang (1927-2005).

As the HIV hypothesis has failed in all its predictions, the AIDS establishment is now devising strategies to unwind the epidemic that never was. I want to look at two of its tactics: 1) To say HIV is becoming less and less pathogenic; 2) To say diagnosed people are starting to lose their HIV positivity either spontaneously or through changes in lifestyle.

Keith Alcorn, senior editor of the National AIDS Manual (U.K.), for example, recently made a rather revealing, albeit contradictory, statement:

  "So the virus that is passed on is less ‘fit' each time…. This would suggest that over several generations, HIV could become less harmful to its human hosts…. However, we are still far from that point — HIV is still a life-threatening infection." [1]

So HIV is becoming “less fit each time” but ”is still a life-threatening infection” — work that one out. Evidently, researchers at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio, and the Institute of Tropical Medicine in Antwerp, Belgium, compared a dozen HIV-1 samples from 1986-89 with a dozen from 2002-03. They found that 75 percent of the newer samples appeared “less fit” than those of 15 years ago, both in terms of spread within individuals and transmission to others. Their results were reported in October in the online journal AIDS.

 So how can HIV be “a life-threatening infection” if it is becoming weaker and weaker through time? Alcorn has presented no evidence over the years that HIV is an “infection” and recent research reported in The Guardian [2] strongly suggests that HIV is not a sexually transmitted infection/disease (STI/STD), but merely an endogenous marker for high-risk groups.

HIV researcher Miguel E. Quinones-Mateu, PhD, has stated: “The idea that HIV-1 is already evolving to a less virulent virus, after its estimated original introduction into susceptible human populations some 80 years ago, may be easy to understand, but perhaps more difficult to demonstrate.” [3]

One reason it would be “more difficult to demonstrate” is because there was never any evidence that HIV is virulent (pathogenic).

To keep the charade going, the AIDS establishment is moving the goalposts (yet again), now by claiming that HIV is mutating beyond pathogenicity — that HIV is less pathogenic today than when it was “discovered” (invented). Is HIV really losing its pathogenicity?  Or has the establishment — having come to the realization that HIV was never pathogenic to start with — beginning to backpedal and dig its escape tunnels? 

In the future, to save face, it will attempt to bail out by claiming that ‘HIV’ has become non-pathogenic — just as Eric Artz, lead author of the study comparing HIV-1 samples, predicts [1]:

"This was a very preliminary study, but we did find a pretty striking observation in that the viruses from the 2000s are much weaker than the viruses from the ‘80s…. Maybe in another 50 to 60 years, we might see this virus not causing death." 

There was never any evidence that HIV did cause death. It was only for political reasons that Robert Gallo and Luc Montagnier insisted that HIV was causing immune suppression, but without presenting any hard evidence to support their claim other than association. And association does not prove causation.

Artz also raises the question: Is the “decrease” in the AIDS cases after 1996 due to antiretroviral drugs or to a “much weaker” HIV?

University of Portsmouth researcher Ford Hickson has stated, "The majority of people with HIV in Britain are gay or African or both. The majority of people who will have sex with them will be gay or African or both. Unless we focus our efforts on the needs of gay men and Africans in Britain, we have little hope of reducing this national crisis."

Hickson fails to see why it is that gays or Africans have group-specific reasons for testing “HIV-positive:” The gay “lifestyle” and African poverty. They test “HIV positive” — not because of‘ HIV (which has never been truly isolated), but because of gay behavioural and African environmental risk factors.

In the British Medical Journal, [4] Gordon Dougan of Imperial College’s Centre for Molecular Microbiology and Infection, wrote:

"The trends underlying the rapid and substantial increases in HIV diagnoses among heterosexual people in the United Kingdom are complex and sometime misunderstood. Although the number of people becoming infected with HIV through heterosexual intercourse in the United Kingdom is rising steadily, most of the overall rise in HIV diagnoses among heterosexuals is among people who originate from and were infected abroad, mainly in Africa."

On critical examination of Dougan et al you will see — yet again — that the vast majority of supposed heterosexual cases of HIV in the U.K. originate mainly from Africa, where conditions such as TB and malaria are well documented to give an HIV-positive test result. Thus Dougan et al's findings inadvertently support the thesis that HIV cannot possibly be "acquired through heterosexual intercourse" in the U.K., because we have had huge rises in STI/STD rates but no equivalent HIV rises.

HIV figures (data source: SOPHID:2003) in the U.K. point to some unexplained anomalies concerning the disproportionate spread of “HIV.” Again, if HIV is a STD, why is it still restricted rigorously to the original “high-risk” groups like homosexuals?

The vast majority of homosexual HIV cases in the U.K. are white (13,440 out of a total of 15,454), whereas the vast majority of heterosexual HIV cases in the U.K. are black (11,068 out of a total of 15,998). The media have recently presented the misleading claim that the U.K. is in the grip of an heterosexual HIV epidemic, but what they did not mention is that more than 75 percent of the heterosexual HIV cases were imported from abroad, particularly from sub-Saharan Africa, the Caribbean, India, Asia, etc.

HIV has never been proven to spread from person to person — that has only ever been an assumption; an unproven supposition purely based on non-specific and non-standardized HIV tests. Andy Davies, a reporter on BBC-TV’s current affairs show Panorama, [5] has related that the number of sexually active people under 25 infected with chlamydia is now thought to number just under half a million. The BBC reported that between 1995 and 2004, chlamydia rates more than trebled from 32,288 annual diagnoses to 103,932; gonorrhoea rates rose from 10,580 to 22,320; and syphilis from 141 diagnoses to 2,252 (an increase of 1,497 percent).

So if HIV is an STI, where are the rises in endemic HIV heterosexual cases in the U.K.? If it really were an STI, there would be hundreds of thousands of heterosexual HIV cases in the U.K. Remember the U.K. has had a huge explosion in teenage heterosexuals STD rates, but no HIV epidemic amongst this group. Why not?

Davies has further reported that around 500 people in Britain each year die of an “HIV-related condition.” But what are these “conditions” other than markers for endogenous HIV expression — or, rather, HIV is a marker for certain conditions — and not a cause of or contributor to them. How many white teenage and adult heterosexuals have Kaposi’s Sarcoma (KS) and Pneumocystis Carinii Pneumonia (PCP), the two original AIDS-defining conditions? KS and PCP are still solely restricted to homosexuals in the West. Why? If HIV is an STI and causes AIDS, there should be hundreds of thousands of white heterosexuals in the West with KS and PCP.

What Davies omits to tell us is how many people die of those same so-called “HIV-related conditions,” who are not “HIV-positive.”  What we are not told is how many people have those alleged HIV-related conditions because these diseases are non-notifiable. These so-called “HIV-related conditions” have always existed, despite HIV, not because of it.

On Oct. 25, the BBC News’ U.K. edition, in a report titled “Are Aids orphans overlooked?” repeated the United Nations charity UNICEF’s claim that in Africa, “Every minute, a child is infected with HIV.”  What are they actually saying? Is an “infected” baby being born every minute? Or are they claiming that a child is being newly “infected” every minute by some unknown mechanism? Are they all being HIV tested? Do they have active-productive “infections”? If so, what titre of HIV do they carry?

As a Sept. 10 story in The Guardian noted [2], “Incredibly, there are probably only 184 white, British, heterosexual men and women who have contracted HIV in the U.K. through having sex with someone from the same demographic group in the last 20 years.”

The hallmark of a sound scientific hypothesis is that predictions based on it will be fulfilled. None of the alarmist and apocalyptic predictions based on the HIV/AIDS hypothesis has ever been fulfilled and never can be because the hypothesis is wrong.

In April 1993, The Lancet published a letter from Gordon Stewart, professor emeritus of public health at Glasgow University and a former World Health Organization adviser on AIDS, which pointed out that previous AIDS projections for 1992 were up to 10 times higher than the actual figure, largely because of false assumptions about heterosexual spread:

"I have been trying to put this across for nearly four years. I have tried numerous journals. The response has either been rejection, or silence…. Nobody wants to look at the facts.… I've sent countless letters to medical journals ... they simply ignore them. The fact is, this whole heterosexual AIDS thing is a hoax." 

Stewart [6] went on: "... since 1990, Nature, Science, the New England Journal of Medicine, the British Medical Journal and other mainline, peer-reviewed journals have preferred to reject papers by others, besides my colleagues and myself, containing verifiable data that throws doubt on the claim that AIDS is capable of causing epidemics in general populations of developed countries.… The Lancet has published some short letters, but has consistently refused to publish fuller reasons for dissent.…" 

Stewart realized, based on his many years of experience in tracking real infectious diseases, that predictions of future AIDS case numbers in the U.K. should be based on behavioor patterns observed in the key high-risk groups — homosexuals, recreational drug users, etc. — rather than the sole criterion of an alleged “infectious agent,” i.e., HIV, the assumed cause of AIDS. History has proven that Stewart’s insightful predictions and observations basing AIDS on behavior patterns and not on a sole infectious agent have come true. Investigative journalist Neville Hodgkinson [7] confirms this:

“The belief in HIV as a sexually transmitted virus that would in time put heterosexuals at risk as much as gay men was never correct. AIDS has stayed confined to groups of people who have non-HIV risks in their lives, including recreational drugs, severe poverty, multiple infections, and the relatively easy access into the bloodstream of foreign body fluids received through anal sex.” 

Scanning a worldwide map of HIV prevalence rates, you will see that high rates directly coincide with areas with growing recreational drug use and/or areas affected by TB, malaria and conditions relating to poverty and malnutrition. The growing drug epidemics of Kazakhstan and Thailand and other Eastern European and Central and East Asian countries directly coincide with their alleged increase in HIV infection rates. It is becoming increasingly clear that HIV in these countries is merely a marker for recreational drug addiction: it has nothing to do with needles — it is the drugs themselves that cause false HIV positivity. Rising drug addiction epidemics are cynically being reclassified as “AIDS” epidemics. Thus, the putative HIV test can just as equally indicate localized drug addiction. Cocaine in vivo has the same mitogenic effect as do laboratory mitogens in awakening previously dormant retroviruses in cell cultures: cocaine use can give a false HIV-positive test result [8]. That both intravenous and oral drug users develop positive HIV-antibody tests was shown as far back as 1988, when Claire Sterk, PhD, reported in The Lancet that a higher percentage of prostitutes who use oral drugs (84 percent), than intravenous (46 percent), test positive.

An earlier study carried out amongst prostitute women in London, Paris and Hamburg showed that only those prostitute women who used recreational drugs tested positive on the putative HIV test. The London prostitutes that were not drug users all tested negative. A similar pattern was observed amongst prostitute women in a study in New York of female crack cocaine addicts.

A proponent of the drug/AIDS hypothesis, Peter Duesberg, the world’s leading retrovirologist, argues [9] “that the long-term consumption of recreational drugs (such as cocaine, heroin, nitrite inhalants, and amphetamines) and prescriptions of DNA chain-terminating and other anti-HIV drugs, cause all AIDS diseases in America and Europe that exceed their long-established, national backgrounds, i.e. >95 percent. Chemically distinct drugs cause distinct AIDS-defining diseases: for example, nitrite inhalants cause Kaposi's sarcoma, cocaine causes weight loss, and AZT causes immunodeficiency, lymphoma, muscle atrophy and dementia. The drug hypothesis predicts that AIDS: (1) is non-contagious; (2) is non-random, because 85 percent of AIDS causing drugs are used by males, particularly sexually active homosexuals between 25 and 49 years of age; and (3) would follow the drug epidemics chronologically.”

It must be remembered that in 1981, all the original GRID (Gay Related Immune Deficiency) cases were heavy users of recreational drugs and the AIDS establishment at the time saw the drug/AIDS hypothesis as a viable and logical explanation of these early cases. GRID is much more of an accurate description than the vague acronym AIDS. But because gay community leaders found the term GRID offensive, it was changed. Also AIDS was much more of an equal opportunities syndrome where “everyone was at risk” of acquiring (even if we know this not to be true today).

Recreational drugs are known to cause endogenous HIV expression. A recent scare story from New York alleging a new “super strain” of HIV was (mis) “diagnosed” from a man in his mid-40s who took crystal methamphetamine. Crystal methamphetamine is oxidative; it depletes glutathione and induces apoptosis/cell death, and depletes CD4s and cultures and activates endogenous HIV expression.

Crystal methamphetamine, an addictive stimulant, itself depletes the immune system (not HIV). Regarding this spurious “super strain” of HIV, a cynical Robert Gallo noted, "The odds are enormous that it is not going to go anywhere."

The final twist in the HIV tale is the disappearing virus act [10]: The News Of The World recently reported that Andrew Stimpson of Largs, Ayrshire, who allegedly “caught the virus” from his HIV-positive boyfriend Juan is now HIV-free. Stimpson recalled, "The doctor had said I could live for 10 years, 20 years, maybe 40 years. I had just turned 22 but after the diagnosis, my energy for life was completely lost.… I remember after the repeat tests, my doctor came into the room saying, ‘You've cured yourself! This is unbelievable, You're fantastic!'… I was baffled; I couldn't understand how anyone could cure themselves of HIV… I didn't understand how I could be negative after one year, especially because I had been having unprotected sex with my partner after the diagnosis, believing we had nothing to lose."

The News of the World went on: “Doctors were astonished at his continuing excellent health, unusual for an HIV sufferer. So in October 2003, he was offered a repeat HIV test — and the result came back negative … He was tested again twice and again the results were negative.”

Lisa Power, head of policy at the Terence Higgins Trust, the leading HIV and AIDS charity in the U.K., says, "If Andrew has been cleared of the virus, that needs to be investigated thoroughly to see if it can be reproduced in any way. This could be of major interest to HIV researchers. We need to find out precisely what's happened with this person."

There was no “virus” there in the first place. How do we really know that Andrew Stimpson was HIV positive to begin with? Were viable, active, infectious HIV particles isolated and recovered directly from his blood or semen? Cell-free HIV has never been found or recovered in fresh samples of semen or blood. HIV has never been truly isolated or proven to exist. Yet the BBC News (November 2005) reported that it costs: “hundreds of thousands of pounds per patient during their life time to treat HIV”. So it is costing the British tax payer hundreds of thousands of pounds per patient during their life time to treat a virtual virus that does not exist: when will this madness end?

So there was no isolated evidence that Stimpson was HIV positive to begin with. No one has ever proven to be HIV positive. All “positives” are false positives. It would be fascinating to find out how many hemophiliacs, diagnosed “HIV” positive in the 1980s, would still test positive today. If they were retested now, how many would prove to be “HIV” negative?  I would strongly advise hemophiliacs, who tested HIV positive in the mid-1980s, to be retested now to see if they seroreverted in the meantime. This would also mean that they were false positives to begin with. Another tactic the AIDS establishment will use to end the HIV scam is to say that more and more people are seroreverting and losing their HIV either naturally or by taking vitamins. [11].

Following on from the Stimpson case, the AIDS establishment will soon be announcing that many more are “curing” and “clearing” themselves of HIV: a cynical strategy to end the HIV scam. Yet false HIV-positive rates will continue to rise rapidly in proportion to the huge rise in global recreational drug epidemics, where HIV is an endogenous marker of drug use. Maybe the HIV test will be reclassified as a test for recreational drug use, TB, malaria and malnutrition.

To try and end the epidemic that never was, the AIDS establishment may very well announce to the mass media that HIV has become non-pathogenic and that people will then start losing their HIV positivity. The cruel irony being that no one was ever HIV positive to begin with.

THE AIDS DEBATE

Letters to Red Flags 

On:  “Occam’s razor, Tolstoy’s blender”  by Stephen Strauss

Friday, September 09, 2005

Reply to this letter  

REPLY TO STEPHEN STRAUSS

In his polemical piece, “Occam's razor, Tolstoy's blender and the Tragedy of Hemophiliac AIDS,” Stephen Strauss writes, “Something that is almost never mentioned, that absolutely convinces me personally HIV is the cause of AIDS … hemophiliacs.” The statement is rather revealing.

Strauss does not ask himself why it is that the HIV/hemophiliac hypothesis is “almost never mentioned.” The reason is that Robert Gallo, Luc Montagnier, Anthony Fauci and David Ho are too embarrassed today to discuss it because they got the facts wrong. Subsequent research has shown that all the original assumptions about HIV contaminating the clotting factor were totally mistaken.

The case of hemophiliacs, far from proving the existence of a transmissible retrovirus (HIV) alleged to have contaminated their clotting factor, proves conclusively, in fact, quite the reverse: HIV is not — and cannot be — the cause of AIDS.

Why did hemophiliacs start to die in appreciable numbers only after HIV was “discovered” in 1983? Surely if this alleged retrovirus was the cause of AIDS‚ we would have noticed their premature deaths before 1983. And why didn't hemophiliacs die from KS (Kaposi’s sarcoma) and PCP (pneumocystis carinii pneumonia), the two original “AIDS” defining diseases?

Gallo tried to make the case that AIDS was caused by a transmissible agent and cited cases of hemophiliacs whom it was assumed were infected via the clotting factor VIII. This assumption was based on two premises that subsequently proved to be totally false: a) the amount of putative virus in a plasma donor/seller’s blood and b) that the virus would survive the manufacture of factor VIII from the pooled plasma.

Uncritical scientists and medics accepted this supposition. It soon became apparent, however, that the supposition was wrong. First, it was assumed that plasma donors/sellers were infected with HIV‚ and carrying titres of cell-free infectious virus particles that resulted in the contamination of the pooled plasma used in the manufacturer of factor VIII. Sometimes, these pools were as large as 30,000 donations of 600 millilitres (ml) of plasma. It was suggested that there was sufficient cell-free “HIV” in some of the donors to contaminate the whole batch. This supposed massive titres of millions, if not billions, of viral particles in the infected donors. This was subsequently proved to be wrong. In the nearly 200,000 published scientific papers on HIV/AIDS, not one claims to have found a titre of more than 10 infectious particles per cubic ml of blood/plasma. There is no way that these negligible amounts of HIV, even if proven to exist, could have contaminated so much factor VIII that virtually all the hemophiliacs could be deemed infected with HIV. As Peter Duesberg rightly pointed out, the average amount of virus‚ claimed to be present in the plasma or blood of an HIV-infected individual, stands at between 1 and 1.7 infectious viral particles per cubic ml, which is absolutely negligible.

Thus, paucity of virus rules out the suggestions that HIV was transmitted to so many hemophiliacs in a comparatively short space of time.

Studies subsequent to 1985 showed that HIV cannot survive long outside the host’s body. This is confirmed by studies showing that spilled HIV‚ positive blood samples or spoiled laboratory cultures resulted in the quick death of the alleged “virus.” It was further discovered, and admitted by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), that dried HIV does not survive. Therefore, factor VIII that is subjected to cryoprecipitation (freeze drying) could not possibly contain viable, cell-free, infectious HIV, even if there had been any putative “virus” in the mix to begin with, which is extremely unlikely for reasons described above.

It was the 99 percent impurities in factor VIII that caused the immune suppression (AIDS). Hence, the early discovery that seroconvertion in hemophiliacs seems to depend on the amount and duration of consumption.  They were dependent on a product that will eventually kill them. It is age- and dose-related. Also, as Duesberg wittingly observed, “Even hemophiliacs are not immortal.”

The introduction of AZT — administered in enormous doses — rapidly killed many hemophiliacs. Their premature deaths exactly coincided with the fast tracking of AZT.

Hemophiliac mortality increased only after the introduction of AZT in 1985. Since about half of Darby's 2,037 severe hemophiliacs were already HIV-positive by this time, surely HIV-caused mortality should have exerted a detectable influence prior to 1985 in this group. Only Duesberg's theory can explain why the explosion of hemophiliac mortality should occur only on the heels of HIV testing: The cytotoxic pharmaceutical drugs and psychological terror that invariably accompany a positive HIV test caused the increased mortality.

In January 1994, the CDC communicated the following experimental data and conclusion: "In order to obtain data on the survival of HIV [in factor V111 clotting factor], laboratory studies have required the use of artificially high concentrations of laboratory grown virus ... the amount of virus studied is not found in human specimens or any place else in nature ... it does not spread or maintain infectiousness outside its host. Although these unnatural concentrations of HIV can be kept alive under precisely controlled and limited laboratory conditions, CDC studies have shown that drying of even these high concentrations of HIV reduces the number of infectious viruses by 90 to 99 percent within several hours. Since the HIV concentrations used in laboratory studies are much higher than those actually found in blood or other body specimens, drying of HIV-infected human blood or other body fluids reduces the theoretical risk of environmental transmission to that which has been observed — essentially zero." (My emphasis.)

Ironically, the very original suggestion that hemophiliacs were proof of the HIV/AIDS hypothesis can now be used to deconstruct this redundant and failed paradigm. There is absolutely no way that HIV could have been transmitted via commercial clotting factors.

I would like to draw Stephen Strauss’ attention to science journalist Christine Johnson’s critical observations: “No one has actually seen HIV in blood plasma. Its presence is inferred from the results of indirect and nonspecific techniques applied to virus cultures. AIDS expert Jay Levy of the University of California was able to find what he believed were HIV particles in the plasma of only 30 percent of the AIDS patients he studied, and then, it was at a low concentration — 10 infectious particles per millilitre. Levy concedes that this isn't enough to establish an infection.

It is widely accepted that the surface of HIV must be studded with knobs containing the protein gp120, which is crucial to the virus's ability to infect cells. But experts such as Hans Gelderblom of the Koch Institute in Berlin, who has conducted most of the electron micrography studies of HIV, say that the virus loses its knobs when it buds from the cell. This means that cell-free virus is incapable of infecting other cells. Since plasma does not contain cells, if HIV were present, it would not be inside a cell and thus it would not be capable of causing an infection.

In addition, there is the dilution factor. Factor concentrate is made from the blood of thousands of donors pooled together. Statistically, only one or two of these donors might be infected, so by the time their blood is merged with that of uninfected donors, only a few copies of HIV, or even none whatsoever, would be present per millilitre. (See “Bad Blood or Bad Science: Are hemophiliacs with AIDS diagnoses really infected with HIV?” by Christine Johnson in Continuum magazine, Volume 5, No. 4.)

It is no wonder the HIV/hemophiliac myth-making machine is never mentioned and, to quote Stephen Strauss, “So forgotten indeed.”

I would like to conclude with some critical comments made by biophysicist Eleni Papadopulos-Eleopulos and colleagues:

* Even the CDC accepts that a positive test in hemophiliacs is not proof of HIV infection. "It is possible that antibody to LAV [=HIV] is acquired passively from immunoglobulins found in factor VIII concentrates.... Likewise, it is possible that seropositivity is caused not by infectious virus but by immunization with non-infectious LAV or LAV proteins derived from virus disrupted during the processing of plasma into factor VIII concentrate." (Evatt, 1985.)

* Levy and his colleagues have shown that the titre of HIV in plasma of HIV-infected individuals three, six or twelve hours after phlebotomy [blood donation] "dropped from up to 500 TCID/ml to 0." [TCID = tissue culture infectious dose.]

Since in most instances, if not all, the time between phlebotomy and conversion of pooled plasma to factor VIII concentrate is considerably greater than three hours, factor VIII is made from plasma which is cell free and, since the late 1970s, factor VIII has been supplied as a dry powder, which may spend weeks or months awaiting use, how can one reconcile the above facts with the view that hemophiliacs are infected with HIV via contaminated factor VIII concentrates? (Papadopulos, 1995b.)

Reply to John Walker

No: the original 'Flat Earthers' were the vast majority - not the dissenting minority - who actually argued that the world was round. It is the naive and gullible 'HIV' believers who are today's Flat Earthers.

Why does an allegedly horizontally transmitted virus, 'HIV', remain almost exclusively in one group of people - homosexual men - for 20 years in the West? Why is it more difficult for heterosexuals to be 'infected' with 'HIV' than homosexuals? This is completely illogical. In the West, homosexual men have been terrorised into wearing condoms and yet they still get 'AIDS' because they're doing all the recreational drugs.

Conversely, heterosexuals in the West clearly are not using condoms – as is proved by the massive rise in STDs and unwanted pregnancies – and yet they do not get 'AIDS'. Young straight teenagers in the UK are practicing 'unsafe' sex yet are not becoming 'HIV' positive - why not? (Sky News: 24th March. 2005). Teenage STD rates are rising in the UK and USA but there is no endemic 'HIV' epidemic in this group. Why not? There is no evidence that 'HIV' is an STD. Homosexuals are testing 'HIV' positive because of a multiplicity of other conditions including recreational drug use. What we have wrongly been nominating as 'HIV' is merely an endogenous marker for cellular disturbance/irregularities.

Why has there never been an endemic heterosexual 'HIV' (or 'AIDS') epidemic in the UK? It is obviously not because they are all using condoms. Hundreds of thousands of straights don't practice 'safe sex' in the UK so why don't they get 'HIV' or 'AIDS'? How would Saint Bob Geldof, Sir Elton John, Nick Partridge or Bernard Forbes answer that one? (They import 'AIDS' from Africa and pretend that we have an endemic heterosexual 'HIV/AIDS' epidemic in the UK!)

It could be argued that homosexuals use condoms far more than heterosexuals – yet homosexuals still get 'AIDS' in the West whilst heterosexuals in the West are not getting 'AIDS'. Therefore the 'AIDS/Gay-Drug Lifestyle' hypothesis makes more sense logically even though politically incorrect. Homosexuals need to practice 'safe drug' use: condoms alone will not stop 'AIDS' even if they may help to prevent the spread of real STDs. (Remember: in 1981 around 24 young homosexuals in the USA were diagnosed as having GRID (aka: 'AIDS') with Kaposi's sarcoma (KS) and all of them were heavy poppers users. Today homosexuals are not warned about the lethal dangers of poppers because of political correctness and the damage that may be done to healthy poppers profits. Meanwhile we are gassing gay men.

Some of you may be older enough to remember when 'AIDS' was originally known as GRID: Gay-Related Immuno-Deficiency in the early 1980s before they invented 'HIV' and turned 'AIDS' into an 'equal opportunities disease' that 'affects us all': but today we know that was yet another Government Big Lie: clearly not 'everyone is at risk' from 'AIDS' today - contrary to John Hurt's 'AIDS' tombstone dooms day prophecy advert transmitted in 1986.

Saint Bob Geldof is not 'raising awareness' but promoting ignorance, further deaths and playing right into the hands of Bush, Blair and the Multinational Pharmaceuticals. Saint Bob Geldof is a actually propagating Capitalist Colonialism and suffering from Acquired Intellectual Deficiency Syndrome. None of the predictions based on the 'HIV/AIDS' hypothesis has ever been fulfilled and never can be because the hypothesis is wrong.

I advise you all to read the following by Dr. Roberto Giraldo:

AIDS is Neither an Infectious Disease nor is Sexually Transmitted, by Roberto Giraldo, MD, Continuum Spring 1998:

The error over the etiology of AIDS was committed in part due to microbiologic prejudice in the mind of researchers, health professionals, journalists, and the public at large. This prejudice comes from the exaggeration of the germ theory of disease promulgated by Pasteur and Koch, which brought many benefits to the medical field at the time. Unfortunately, today they continue to think as at the end of the last century - that all is infectious, that all is contagious, and that it should be a microbe that causes every-thing. The world was prepared by a century of panic over microbes to mistake the etiology of AIDS. It was not possible to avoid it.

Another contribution to the error about the cause of AIDS is the failure in research methodology to fulfil epidemiological requirements. None of the postulates on which the infectious hypothesis of AIDS is based fulfil the requirements of the research method. None of the bases of the HIV-AIDS hypothesis has been demonstrated at an objective level. They are theoretical assumptions, created by the minds of those who generate and defend that hypothesis. Practically the entire world has become accustomed to believe all that we are told by the so-called men of science. Currently, the critical and questioning capabilities of 'the people' are null. They do not ask for the necessary proofs for the affirmations that can look objective. The worst epidemic that the contemporary world suffers is an epidemic of crises in the scientific method. It is more extensive than the AIDS epidemic. There will be more consequences unless we take a pathway paved with an authentic objective research methodology.

The scientific community has been wrong many times in this century, by considering as infectious diseases that are not - pellagra, scurvy and beriberi. The error currently made with AIDS has a larger magnitude due to the catastrophic repercussions on thousands of people that suffer from this toxic syndrome. Guilt for the error made with AIDS falls on a few researchers and health institutions of the United States government. The majority of people in the world simply believed the so-called men of science. Analysis, understanding and solution of the error will force inter-national medical authorities to rethink their tactics and strategies in the health care of people. This will lead to questions, investigations and solutions to the unfair forms by which men socially relate amongst themselves in modern society, which in the end are the reason for the existence of AIDS. Let us go back to Hippocratic medicine. Let us divulge and stimulate the discussion about the cause of AIDS.

Right of Replay to Bennett: Censorship of Critical 'AIDS' Analysis at BMJ rapid responses? 16 June 2005

Alexander H Russell, Writer/artist/philosopher WC1N 1PE Send response to journal: Re: Right of Replay to Bennett: Censorship of Critical 'AIDS' Analysis at BMJ rapid responses?

"Truth always rests with the minority, and the minority is always stronger than the majority, because the minority is generally formed by those who really have an opinion, while the strength of the majority is illusory, formed by the gangs who have no opinion." Soren Kierkegaard, The Diary of Soren K. pt.5 sect.3, no 128 (1850). Nicholas Bennett stated in his customary patronising and condescending manner: "My point is that the use of the BMJ forums as an outlet for alterative views is simply unnecessary, except to add a fake veneer of respectability to peoples' opinions. If the Perth Group and others want to debate in public they are welcome to post to misc.health.aids where no post is edited, moderated or censored, and in fact many of the contributors to the BMJ forum have done exactly that." The so called 'alternative' views on 'HIV/AIDS' being voiced by myself and The Perth Group at BMJ rapid responses are in fact 'contesting views' and equally valid. As 'AIDS' analysts we do not use 'alternative' views but contesting critical scientific argument. Thus Bennett sets up a false polarity/opposition between so-called 'alternative' ('dissident') views and the so-called 'establishment' views of 'consensus science'. It can be argued that 'consensus science' is bad science. Science can only develop and grow by contesting and critiquing 'commonsense' assumptions and suppositions. The only true advancements in science and medicine have been made by men and women who thought beyond the prevailing paradigm and general wisdom. As C.H. Waddington; geneticist so succinctly put it: "The most formidable barrier to the advancement of science is the conventional wisdom of the dominant group." The BMJ weak argument for halting the 'HIV/AIDS debate at rapid responses is that we repeat the same points 'again and again and again'. There is a very logical reason for why we have had to make the same points 'again and again and again': it is simply because Bennett, Flegg and Floyd et al have consistently refused to answer any of our 'points' and repeatedly obfuscate ad infinitum. Bennett, Flegg and Floyd et al have also made that 'same' points before 'again and again and again' in their rapid responses - but BMJ never ever seem to tire of them repeating - 'again and again and again' - the same old unproven and tired 'HIV' Mantras. I strongly suspect the real reason - the (not so) hidden agenda for the halting of the 'HIV/AIDS' debate at rapid responses is that pressure had been put upon the Editors of the BMJ by the medical establishment because the 'debate' may 'confuse' and 'upset' the public, to say nothing of damaging the reputations of those who have so uncritically, subserviently and shamefully perpetuated and propagated the 'HIV' charade for so long now. Most importantly Bennett, Flegg and Floyd et al have never been able to answer the 'haemophilia' and 'HIV' question. The key to the whole 'HIV' thing is the case of the haemophiliacs. We were told originally that they were 'infected' with 'HIV' by their contaminated clotting factor, Factor VIII. However, it is now well known - although not admitted - that 'HIV' could not possibly have survived the freeze drying process used in the manufacture of Factor VIII - but no one has ever admitted this. Meanwhile thousands of haemophiliacs have been paid many thousands of pounds in compensation for something which never happened, and they are still living now - longer than they have ever done before despite the fact that they are allegedly 'infected' with 'HIV'. The case of the haemophiliacs represents the madness and illogicality of the whole 'HIV/AIDS' paradigm. I would like to remind Bennett that he hallmark of a sound hypothesis is that all predictions based upon it will be fulfilled: to date no prediction based upon the 'HIV/AIDS' hypothesis has ever been fulfilled. Bennett goes on: "The apparent restriction of views on the BMJ forums is actually no such thing - it is simply defining the remit and barriers of the forum…" In the context of Noam Chomsky's 'propaganda model' analysis Bennett sets the agenda and frames the debate within the closed confines of the 'HIV/AIDS' paradigm: anyone that critiques and deconstructs this 'belief system' is then 'marginalised' and nominated (incorrectly) as 'dissident' or 'alternative' when in fact they are nothing of the kind: they merely offer critical deconstructive analysis of the 'HIV/AIDS' paradigm. Thus we must stop using the misleading and marginalising terms such as 'alternative' and 'dissident' and start using the terms 'analysis' and 'deconstruction'. Bennett uses what Chomsky terms as 'filters' (an essential ingredient of Chomsky's propaganda model) by simplifying and editing out the anomalies, contradictions and flaws inherent in the 'HIV/AIDS' hypothesis and using popular media sound bites such as 'HIV causes AIDS' or 'HIV infection' – but never being able to cite critical scientific proof regarding these simple minded statements which are merely media manufactured mythical folklore. At BMJ rapid responses Bennett serves as a subservient propagandist of 'HIV' Ideology for 'manufacturing consent' of the 'HIV' Hegemonic Order. The scientific journals and global media serve the interests of the 'HIV' Industry as Noam Chomsky put it: "They set the general framework. They determine, they select, they shape, they control, they restrict in order to serve the interests of dominant, elite groups in the society." The dominant groups (Nature, Science, BMJ and The Lancet) perpetuate and propagate the 'HIV/AIDS' paradigm and set the agenda and frame the debate within the closed confines of the 'HIV/AIDS' hypothesis and it is Bennett, Flegg and Floyd et that reproduce and sell this dominant 'HIV' Ideology. In concluding I would like to point Bennett, BMJ and rapid responses readers to the following quotes regarding the pernicious censorship of the 'HIV/AIDS' debate and the perversion of the peer review system: "The general public accepts what the media tells them. And the media has blown up the virus as being the cause of AIDS, and the scientific community - parts of it - have blown up the virus as the cause of AIDS because it is more convenient to have a neat explanation than to be in that situation in which we often are in science at which the problems, the questions, still face us, and our knowledge proceeds gradually to overcome those difficulties." Dr Walter Gilbert, Nobel Laureate, Chemistry, 1980. "To an extent which undermines classical standards of science, the scientific establishment has handled purported scientific results concerning AIDS by press releases rather than by scientific exchanges, thereby manipulating the media at large." Serge Lang, Letter to the Council, National Academy of Sciences, USA. "The peer review system at present is being abused to obstruct or prevent scientific discussion, by Scientific American-Pour la Science, in addition to the major international magazines such as Nature and Science, and the funding agencies in the United States." Serge Lang: To the cc list for the HIV-Pour la Science file. "...since 1990, Nature, Science, the New England Journal of Medicine, the British Medical Journal and other mainline, peer-reviewed journals have preferred to reject papers by others besides my colleagues and myself containing verifiable data that throws doubt on the claim that AIDS is capable of causing epidemics in general populations of developed countries...The Lancet has published some short letters but has consistently refused to publish fuller reasons for dissent..." Prof. Gordon Stewart, A paradigm under pressure, Index on Censorship, Vol.28, No.3, May/June 1999. Finally I would like to draw your attention to the following news article: 'A virus like none other before it' by Roger Bate in Business Day, Opinion & Analysis; Thursday 16th June, 2005 at the following url: http://www.businessday.co.za/articles/opinion.aspx?ID=BD4A54595 Competing interests: None declared

LETTERS TO RED FLAGS

15th June, 2005

On HIV

The unproven medical hypothesis that 'HIV causes 'AIDS has resulted in the unsafe convictions of Feston Konzani, Mohammed Dica and Paolo Matias for allegedly 'infecting' with 'HIV'.

Feston Konzani, an African asylum seeker, has been jailed for 10 years in 2004 at Teesside Crown Court for allegedly 'infecting' three women with 'HIV'. Konzani was accused of inflicting "grievous bodily harm" on the two women aged 25 and 26 and a young girl of 15.

The Court of Appeal stated that the women never consented to the specific risk of contracting "a potentially fatal disease" alleged to be HIV. Yet the Court of Appeal presented no evidence that 'HIV' is a fatal condition; merely assumed it to be so. The three women claimed that they became "infected" with HIV after having sex between February 2000 and May 2003 with Konzani. How do they know they were "infected" by Konzani? Did these women come from areas in Africa or the Third World where TB, malaria and leprosy are endemic and are well known to cause false positive readings on HIV tests?

In 2003 Mohammed Dica was convicted at Inner London Crown Court of two counts of 'biological' grievous bodily harm allegedly 'infecting' women with 'HIV' and sentenced to 8 years in prison.

How do we really know that Konzani and Dica are 'HIV' positive and really 'infected' these women? Were viable, active, infectious 'HIV' particles isolated and recovered directly from their blood or semen? Cell- free HIV has never been found in fresh samples of semen.

The research of Padian et al (1) shows that it is extremely difficult for a man to 'infect' a woman. Did the prosecution prove unequivocally that the three women were HIV negative prior to meeting the accused? Were these females all virgins prior to intercourse with Konzani?

The defence lawyers for Konzani and Dica obviously did not know that there are arguments in the scientific literature that 'HIV' has never been truly isolated or proven to be sexually transmitted. The Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) make the false assumption that the HIV tests are reliable and proof of putative 'HIV infection' and/or that 'HIV' is an 'infectious disease' and that HIV is an STD. These are all unproven suppositions.

The CPS needs to be informed that the 'HIV' tests are non-specific and non-standardised. All current 'HIV' tests lack a 'gold standard' against which they could be evaluated to ensure that 'HIV' is being detected. There is no gold standard HIV test because there is no gold standard 'HIV' isolate.

In addition to being inaccurate, 'HIV' tests are not standardised. This means that there is no nationally or internationally accepted criterion for what constitutes a 'positive' result. Different countries have different criteria as to what constitutes a 'positive' test result. Standards also vary from lab to lab within the same country and can even differ from day to day at the same lab.

Paolo Matias is the fifth man in the UK to be jailed for alleged "reckless transmission of HIV" and for causing (hypothetical and unproven) "grievous bodily harm" to his girl friend despite the fact that to 'HIV' has never been scientifically proven to be a sexually transmitted retrovirus or to be the cause of 'AIDS'. Again: were viable, active, infectious 'HIV' particles isolated and recovered directly from Paolo Matias's blood or semen?

We need to drop the term "grievous bodily harm" simply because 'HIV' has never been scientifically proven to be a sexually transmitted 'infectious' agent that causes 'AIDS'. What has been wrongly nominated as 'HIV' is merely an endogenous marker for cellular irregularity found in specific groups.

Judge Michael Stokes QC makes the false assumption that 'HIV' is an STD and causes 'AIDS' when he told Matias: "Having sexual intercourse when you knew you were HIV positive, therefore likely to pass it on to her, is unforgivable."

Judge Michael Stokes QC needs to be informed that the 'HIV' is not an STD and that tests are non-specific and non-standardised. All current 'HIV' tests lack a 'gold standard' against which they could be evaluated to ensure that 'HIV' is being detected. There is no gold standard 'HIV' test because there is no gold standard 'HIV' isolate. There is simply no hard scientific evidence that anyone is 'HIV' positive.

Therefore these current cases made against people for 'HIV transmission' are all unsafe, absolutely absurd and have no scientific basis or credibility: power is knowledge. Knowledge is freedom from false prosecutions. Yet there is evidently another trial, the first involving a homosexual, due to take place this summer.

I would argue on scientific grounds that their convictions are unsafe because they depend upon the unproven assumption that 'HIV' is transmitted horizontally via sexual intercourse and that 'HIV' tests are reliable and proof of 'HIV infection'. Emeritus Prof. Gordon Stuart, Public Health, Glasgow UK stated: "At present there is no scientific basis for using these tests to prove HIV infection." Whilst Chief UK virologist Philip Mortimer stated: "It may be impossible to relate an antibody response specifically to HIV infection."

The horizontal (sexual) transmission of 'HIV' has never been scientifically proven: it is mere supposition that 'HIV' is sexually transmitted. If 'HIV' were a genuine STD it would spread equally through the general population and be equally bi-transitive between the sexes. We have seen huge rises in STD rates and unwanted pregnancies in the UK without a concurrent spread of 'HIV'. There is no endemic heterosexual 'HIV' epidemic in the UK.

We need to drop the term "reckless transmission" simply because 'HIV' has never been proven to be a sexually transmitted 'infectious' agent. What we are (wrongly) calling 'HIV' is merely an endogenous marker for cellular irregularity.

Why does an allegedly horizontally transmitted virus, 'HIV', remain almost exclusively in one group of people - homosexual men - for 20 years in the West? Why is it more difficult for heterosexuals to be 'infected' with 'HIV' than homosexuals? This is completely illogical.

Feston's QC, Timothy Roberts, submitted that the convictions were "unsafe" because of "two legal errors", at the Court of Appeal in London. The real grounds for appeal should have been that 'HIV' has not been proven to be transmitted sexually. To stop this potential medical McCarthyism we need a public inquiry into the validity of HIV testing as well as scientific proof that 'HIV' is an STD.

To date: in a Court of Law there has never ever been any scientific proof presented that 'HIV' exists as an isolated, sexually transmiited retrovirus or that 'HIV' has been truly isolated from a fresh blood or semen sample.

Should Konzani, Dica and Matias be granted another appeal their defence councils might care to consider calling the following as expert witnesses* to verify that a) HIV is not the cause of AIDS; and b) and HIV is not transmitted sexually; and c) that the HIV tests are notoriously unreliable and non-specific. Christine Johnson (2) recorded over 70 conditions drawn from the medical literature known to give a false- positive 'HIV' test result:

Dear Alexander,

Dear Alexander

Putting it bluntly,  we don't want to hear from you  - ever again  - on HIV/AIDS.

Regardless of whether you believe your views fall within or against the conventional paradigm, your responses over the years have really been drumming a single message. Can you read what's featured below and say you've never made that same point before (again and again and again)?

You may have missed the following editorial: http://bmj.bmjjournals.com/cgi/content/full/330/7503/1284

so can I direct your attention to the section on AIDS deniers

Dear BMJ Editors,
 
My rapid response works within the 'HIV' Paradigm and is not 'alternative' or 'dissenting' and aims to answer Steven Stern's polemic.

The Case of Paolo Matias & The Criminalisation of supposed 'HIV' Transmission

Posted on Saturday, 4 June, 2005 - 4:29 pm:   

Paolo Matias is the fifth man in the UK to be jailed for alleged "reckless transmission of HIV" and for causing "grievous bodily harm" to his girl friend despite the fact that to date 'HIV' has never been scientifically proven to be a sexually transmitted retrovirus or to be the cause of 'AIDS'.

We need to drop the term "grievous bodily harm" simply because 'HIV' has never been scientifically proven to be a sexually transmitted 'infectious' agent that causes 'AIDS'. What has been wrongly nominated as 'HIV' is merely an endogenous marker for cellular irregularity found in specific groups.

Judge Michael Stokes QC makes the false assumption that 'HIV' is an STD and causes 'AIDS' when he told Matias: "Having sexual intercourse when you knew you were HIV positive, therefore likely to pass it on to her, is unforgivable."

Judge Michael Stokes QC needs to be informed that the 'HIV' is not an STD and that tests are non-specific and non-standardised. All current HIV tests lack a 'gold standard' against which they could be evaluated to ensure that 'HIV' is being detected. There is no gold standard HIV test because there is no gold standard HIV isolate. There is simply no hard scientific evidence that anyone is 'HIV' positive.

Therefore these current cases made against people for 'HIV transmission' are all unsafe, absolutely absurd and have no scientific basis or credibility: power is knowledge. Knowledge is freedom from false prosecutions. Yet there is evidently another trial, the first involving a homosexual, is due to take place this summer.

Will the so-called homosexual community go on making a rod for its own back (pun not intended) by supporting the unproven belief that 'HIV' is an STD - and therefore likely to instigate further stigma, fear, irrationality, witch hunts, unsafe convictions, criminalisation, incarceration? Probably: people fear thinking autonomously and empowering themselves: they feel safer in numbers following heard belief systems and never question what they are told.

Unfortunately, the so-called 'HIV' community is absolutely initiated and interpellated into the unproven supposition that 'HIV' is an STD and causes 'AIDS' so they are hoist by their own petard: they cannot think out of this simplistic nonsensical ideology and anyone who dares to have the temerity to criticise 'HIV' Ideology is automatically branded as an 'HIV' denisalist.

The retard and quasi-religious term 'HIV denialist' is the slave-morality herd-instinct of the blind 'HIV' believer: anyone who critiques and questions this Scientology-like 'HIV' Belief system is violently attacked with emotive abuse and irrational fear fuelled by bitter hated and bitter resentment. The so-called 'HIV' community do not want 'informed choices' or 'informed debate' but idiotic dogma and blind belief like all reactionary and regressive retard religions.

I would argue on legal and scientific grounds that these recent convictions against people for 'HIV transmission' are all unsafe because they depend upon the unproven assumption that 'HIV' is transmitted horizontally via sexual intercourse and that 'HIV' tests are reliable and proof of 'HIV infection' and that 'HIV' causes 'AIDS'.

The horizontal (sexual) transmission of 'HIV' has never been scientifically proven: it is mere supposition that 'HIV' is sexually transmitted. If ‘HIV’ were a genuine STD it would spread equally through the general population and be equally bi-transitive between the sexes. We have seen huge rises in STD rates and unwanted pregnancies in the UK without a concurrent spread of 'HIV'. There is no endemic heterosexual 'HIV' epidemic in the UK.

Criminalisation of HIV Transmission

Posted on Sunday, 29 May, 2005 - 11:29 pm:   

Regarding the recent convictions for so-called “reckless transmission” of HIV, Dr. Catherine Dodds, research fellow, Sigma Research, stated: “In the last 100 years no one has ever been convicted for transmitting any other disease. Why HIV? Why now? We need answers – we need action.” (Positive Nation, Issue 112, May 2005). Whilst Lisa Power, Head of Policy and Public Affairs, Terrence Higgins Trust, stated we need to “…encourage a national debate about using criminal law to regulate public health.” (Positive Nation, Issue 112, May 2005).

To stop this potential medical McCarthyism we need a public inquiry into the validity of HIV testing. To date the debate has been largely framed and the agenda set by the proponents of the HIV paradigm: the hypothesis that HIV is a sexually transmitted infection and causes AIDS. To date this assumption is an unproven supposition unsupported by hard science.

The Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) make the false assumption that the HIV tests are reliable and proof of putative 'HIV infection' and/or that HIV is an 'infectious disease' and that HIV is an STD. These are all unproven suppositions.
Feston Konzani, an African asylum seeker, has been jailed for 10 years in 2004 at Teesside Crown Court for allegedly 'infecting' three women with HIV. Konzani was accused of inflicting "grievous bodily harm" on the two women aged 25 and 26 and a young girl of 15.

The Court of Appeal stated that the women never consented to the specific risk of contracting “a potentially fatal disease” alleged to be HIV. Yet the Court of Appeal presented no evidence that ‘HIV’ is a fatal condition; merely assumed it to be so. The three women claimed that they became "infected" with HIV after having sex between February 2000 and May 2003 with Konzani. How do they know they were "infected" by Konzani? Did these women come from areas in Africa or the Third World where TB, malaria and leprosy are endemic and are well known to cause false positive readings on HIV tests?

In 2003 Mohammed Dica was convicted at Inner London Crown Court of two counts of 'biological' grievous bodily harm allegedly 'infecting' women with HIV and sentenced to 8 years in prison.
How do we really know that Konzani and Dica are 'HIV' positive and really 'infected' these women? Were viable, active, infectious HIV particles isolated and recovered directly from their blood or semen? Cell-free HIV has never been found in fresh samples of semen.

The research of Padian et al (1) shows that it is extremely difficult for a man to ‘infect’ a woman. Did the prosecution prove unequivocally that the three women were HIV negative prior to meeting the accused? Were these females all virgins prior to intercourse with Konzani?

The defence lawyers for Konzani and Dica obviously did not know that there are arguments in the scientific literature that HIV has never been truly isolated or proven to be sexually transmitted.

The CPS needs to be informed that the HIV tests are non-specific and non-standardised. All current HIV tests lack a 'gold standard' against which they could be evaluated to ensure that 'HIV' is being detected. There is no gold standard HIV test because there is no gold standard HIV isolate.

In addition to being inaccurate, HIV tests are not standardised. This means that there is no nationally or internationally accepted criterion for what constitutes a 'positive' result. Different countries have different criteria as to what constitutes a 'positive' test result. Standards also vary from lab to lab within the same country and can even differ from day to day at the same lab.

We would argue on scientific grounds that their convictions are unsafe because they depend upon the unproven assumption that HIV is transmitted horizontally via sexual intercourse and that HIV tests are reliable and proof of ‘HIV infection’. Emeritus Prof. Gordon Stuart, Public Health, Glasgow UK stated: "At present there is no scientific basis for using these tests to prove HIV infection." Whilst Chief UK virologist Philip Mortimer stated: "It may be impossible to relate an antibody response specifically to HIV infection."

The horizontal (sexual) transmission of HIV has never been scientifically proven: it is mere supposition that 'HIV' is sexually transmitted. If HIV were a genuine STD it would spread equally through the general population and be equally bi-transitive between the sexes. We have seen huge rises in STD rates and unwanted pregnancies in the UK without a concurrent spread of HIV. There is no endemic heterosexual 'HIV' epidemic in the UK.

We need to drop the term “reckless transmission” simply because HIV has never been proven to be a sexually transmitted ‘infectious’ agent. What we are calling HIV is merely an endogenous marker for cellular irregularity.

Why does an allegedly horizontally transmitted virus, HIV, remain almost exclusively in one group of people - homosexual men? Why is it more difficult for heterosexuals to be 'infected' with HIV than homosexuals? This is completely illogical.

Feston's QC, Timothy Roberts, submitted that the convictions were "unsafe" because of "two legal errors", at the Court of Appeal in London. The real grounds for appeal should have been that HIV has not been proven to be transmitted sexually.

Should Konzani and Dica be granted another appeal their defence councils might care to consider calling the following as expert witnesses* to verify that a) HIV is not the cause of AIDS; and b) and HIV is not transmitted sexually; and c) that the HIV tests are notoriously unreliable and non-specific. Christine Johnson (2) recorded over 70 conditions drawn from the medical literature known to give a false-positive 'HIV' test result:

Reply to Nassim C. Kamdar regarding Critical 'AIDS' Analysts 10 April 2005
Alexander H Russell, Writer/artist/philosopher WC1N 1PE Send response to journal: Re: Reply to Nassim C. Kamdar regarding Critical 'AIDS' Analysts	Nassim C. Kamdar refreshingly stated regarding dumping the term 'AIDS' Dissidents: "I think it is high time to review the term 'aids dissidents' which puts one in the inadvertently similar position as the "insurgents" in Iraq; A negative concept that automatically creates in the mind of those with a herd mentality an emotional detachment from anything associated with the "dissidents"; and artificially compartmentalises researchers in this field. Since AIDS 'dissidents' are neither 'anti-government' nor 'anti-anything' can we, at least, avoid using the term in our own discussions. To get the ball rolling, 'AIDS-theory analysts' which recognises a common effort towards a common goal." Kamdar is shrewd in adopting this strategy/tactic and we should follow Nassim's stance and start using the term 'AIDS' Analysts or 'AIDS' Critical Theorists or even 'AIDS' Deconstructionists since such analytical -critical-intellectual terms lifts so-called 'dissenters' out of the arbitrary binary opposition between 'them' and 'us': 'insiders' versus 'outsiders', 'establishment' versus 'dissident'. We are not 'AIDS' dissidents but 'AIDS' Reappraisers and The Group for the Scientific Reappraisal of the HIV-AIDS Hypothesis came into being as a group of signatories of an open letter to the scientific community. The letter (June 6, 1991) had been submitted to the editors of Nature, Science, The Lancet and The New England Journal of Medicine. The unpublished letter stated: "It is widely believed by the general public that a retrovirus called HIV causes the group diseases called AIDS. Many biochemical scientists now question this hypothesis. We propose that a thorough reappraisal of the existing evidence for and against this hypothesis be conducted by a suitable independent group. We further propose that critical epidemiological studies be devised and undertaken." Many so-called 'AIDS' dissidents are well respected and 'established' scientists, doctors, philosophers, cultural theorists, lawyers, journalists, as well as Noble Laureates Kary B. Mullis (Nobel Prize in Chemistry, 1993) and Walter Gilbert (Nobel Prize in Chemistry, 1980); and Serge Lang, arguably one of the most brilliant mathematicians in the United States; and not forgetting retrovirologist, Peter H. Duesberg, Ph.D., professor of Molecular and Cell Biology at the University of California, Berkeley. Duesberg isolated the first cancer gene through his work on retroviruses in 1970, and mapped the genetic structure of these viruses. This, and his subsequent work in the same field, resulted in his election to the National Academy of Sciences in 1986. Duesberg was also the recipient of a seven-year Outstanding Investigator Grant from the National Institute of Health. Here are a few quotes from established 'AIDS' Analysts on the flawed and failed 'HIV/AIDS' Hypothesis: Prof. Serge Lang: "For a decade, there has been increasing concern about 'AIDS,' and a virus called 'HIV' which is said to cause 'AIDS'. Having named this virus 'HIV - Human Immunodeficiency Virus - contributes to making people accept that 'HIV is the cause of AIDS'. However, to an extent that undermines classical standards of science, some purported scientific results concerning 'HIV' and 'AIDS' have been handled by press releases, by misinformation, by low-quality studies, and by some suppression of information, manipulating the media and people at large…A number of scientists have questioned the established view that 'HIV is the cause of AIDS,' and they have given evidence that this view - I call it dogma - may be invalid." - Serge Lang, HIV and AIDS: Have We Been Misled? Questions of Scientific and Journalistic Responsibility, Yale Scientific, Fall 1994. Kary Mullis, Ph.D: "Where is the research that says HIV is the cause of AIDS? There are 10,000 people in the world now who specialize in HIV. None has any interest in the possibility HIV doesn't cause AIDS because if it doesn't, their expertise is useless...I can't find a single virologist who will give me references which show that HIV is the probable cause of AIDS. If you ask a virologist for that information, you don't get an answer, you get fury." - Kary Mullis, Ph.D. Nobel Prize in Chemistry, 1993, for inventing the polymerase chain reaction [PCR]. Walter Gilbert, Ph.D: "Duesberg is absolutely correct in saying that no one has proven that AIDS is caused by the AIDS virus. And he is absolutely correct that the virus may...not be the cause of AIDS." - Gilbert, Ph.D., Nobel Prize in Chemistry, 1980. Peter H. Duesberg, Ph.D: "If you think a virus is the cause of AIDS, do a control without it. To do a control is the first thing you teach undergraduates. But it hasn't been done. The epidemiology of AIDS is a pile of anecdotal stories, selected to fit the virus-AIDS hypothesis. People don't bother to check the details of popular dogma or consensus views." - Peter H. Duesberg, Ph.D., Professor of Cell & Molecular Biology Member, National Academy of Sciences. Competing interests: None declared
