[Marxism] Blaming Gays, Blacks, and Chimps for AIDS

["Calvin Broadbent" <calvinbroadbent@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Are species-jumping animal virus experiments responsible for the HIV
Holocaust?

By Alan Cantwell, Jr., M.D. - 2001

Since the beginning of the AIDS epidemic there have been persistent rumors
that the disease was man-made, and that HIV was deliberately "introduced"
into the American gay and the African black populations as a germ warfare
experiment. This so-called conspiracy theory was quickly squelched by
virologists and molecular biolologists, who blamed primates in the African
bush and human sexuality for the introduction and spread of HIV.

In the fall of 1986 the Soviets shocked the world by claiming that HIV was
secretly developed at Fort Detrick, the U.S. Army's biological warfare unit.
Although the claim was dismissed as "infectious propaganda", Russian
scientists had worked hand in hand with biological warfare scientists in the
transfer of viruses and virus-infected tissue into various non-human
primates (monkeys, apes, chimps) during the 1970s before AIDS appeared. With
improved international relationships, the Russian accusation vanished.

Although evidence supporting the man-made theory has never been mentioned in
the major U.S. media, the theory continues to be ridiculed. For example, in
the San Francisco Chronicle,( "Quest for the Origin of AIDS", January 14,
2001), William Carlsen writes: "In the early years of the AIDS epidemic,
theories attempting to explain the origin of the disease ranged from the
comic to the bizarre: a deadly germ escaped from a secret CIA laboratory;
God sent the plague down to punish homosexuals and drug addicts; it came
from outer space, riding on the tail of a comet." AIDS certainly did not
come from the hand of God or outer space. However, there is ample evidence
to suspect the hand of man in the outbreak of AIDS that first began in the
late 1970s in New York City.
