NP Rank:
The Swine Flu Hoax
Tamiflu is an antiviral medication used to treat influenza. It will be the prime medication sold to protect citizens from swine flu as it was for avian flu. All healthcare workers, military and essential service workers will need a dose available and it will be bought with your tax dollars.Tamiflu is made and patented by Gilead Sciences and Donald Rumsfeld was the chairman of this company before he joined the Bush administration. When the Avian Flu scare flashed across the television sets of Americans, Gilead Sciences stock went through the roof. Rumsfeld refused to sell his stock when he joined the Bush administration and the increase in stock value made him the richest man in that administration. Moreover, Gilead Sciences successfully lobbied a billion dollar contract with the U.S. military during the avian flu scare, giving each soldier access to the drug. Now, with the swine flu scare, the same players are about to make an even bigger fortune. Who are these people? They are all hardcore neoconservatives with a long history of paying for neocon agendas and campaigns and they have far-reaching capabilities to manufacture a media-constructed, influenza hoax. The actual flu may be real, but the panic surrounding it is the product of those who waited for another opportunity to knock, or sneeze.
The largest shareholder of Gilead Sciences is the FMR Corporation. This company is owned by Grover Glenn Norquist, a well-connected Republican activist with close ties to business and the media. Norquist was the Executive Director of the College Republican National Committee in the 1980's and he oversaw the transformation of the committee into a conservative grassroots powerhouse for the Reagan administration. His credentials and resume include being a:
- Lobbyist for Microsoft
- Member, board of directors, National Rifle Association
- Member, board of directors, American Conservative Union
- Member, Council on Foreign Relations (2001)
- Consultant for Janus-Merritt Strategies, a lobbying firm
As we sit on the eve of a new influenza scare, the question is: will anybody pay attention to the fact that the last influenza scare didn’t become a pandemic, but it sure made neoconservatives rich. Rumsfeld, Norquist and Goldman Sachs (another major shareholder) do not have the general public's best interest at heart. They will manipulate every connection they have in government, media and the health-care industry to make this a financial windfall. I'm not insinuating they created the swine flu itself -they are just capitalizing on a virus that just isn't that much of a threat.
The regular run-of-the-mill strains of influenza kill more than 35 000 Americans every year and hospitalize another 200 000. Eighty people dying of disease in one of the dirtiest cities on earth is tragic, but it should not be used as an excuse to fill the coffers of a conservative faction that has already ripped off America of every penny it could during its time in office. I wouldn’t be surprised if Bush even stole the cutlery out of the White House before he left. The only hands that need washing are America's; washed of the filthy agenda of neoconservatives willing to exploit anything to make a buck.
“Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me”

and so...... if this is a fabricated game in order to sell the antitoxin

The flu is real.. it's just not that relevant.
at 16:00 on April 28th, 2009
Thanks for this. Surely you don't believe that D. Rumsfeld would do anything remotely immoral, illegal or downright criminal would you.

There is a possibility that this strain has been lab-created. I found this story yesterday and it raises some interesting points:

Chicken little says the sky is falling. I agree this flu is real but the pandemic is going to be another hoax. I miss the days of the Avian Bird Flu that was going to kill all of us.
at 17:47 on April 28th, 2009
People have been dying of various types of flu for ages, and flu epidemics are nothing today compared to what they were a hundred years ago. The hoax part is the commercialisation of disease through mass media scare tactics, and some people have been making obscene profits out of that. Remember the anthrax scare and the millions of antibiotics sold to the governments of Canada and US. We've been eating animals that carry bugs for ages, but animals have been recently rediscovered as a profiteering tool for the industry. A local case in point is the Avian Flu in Greater Vancouver, and the price of chicken that doubled, but has stayed there. How convenient.

Thanks for this report. A few years ago, I saw a video, and read reports on the history of pig breeding, especially by Smithfield, in VA, going back to the early 70s. By the time these inbred genetically engineered pigs are ready to be slaughtered, they are so full of hormones and chemicals that their immune system is GONE! Apparently, the pig farming industry had to appeal to specialty pig farmers, who still raised the older breed genes, without the chemicals, for showing at state fairs, etc.
Remember the slogan "The other white meat!" that refers to pigs whose meat turns white due to massive, long term inbreeding, chemical and hormonal treatments. Naturally raised pigs have pinkish red meat.
Fortunately, there is a strong movement toward free range, organicly raised pigs.
And, of course, the owners of the antiviral company will make another fortune with this new epidemic. This won't be the last, because farming methods aren't changing fast enough to correct their earlier mistakes. Citizens can't be so trusting anymore.

John.. you are way off base. The lies found in conventional "conspiracy theories" undermine the truth that needs to be realized. Forget about the Amero, Obama-messiah fables and Illuminati distortions.. they do nothing but distract from the reality of ACTUAL conspiracies. Don't be part of the problem.. shed the bullsh*# and seek the truth. It may require way more work, but it's worth it.

Actually, I believe this flu bug was concocted in the Washington, D.C. offices of "J Street", the George Soros run PAC.
Obama and puppetmaster Soros want to decimate the American population, declare Martial Law, abolish Civil Liberties (especially the 2nd Amendment), and suspend Posse Comitatus.
This may be a dry run for the takeover
-or this might be the full deal, where they go for the jugular.
I think they're going for a World Government
-with the Arab King of Saudi Arabia on the Throne
-that's what the Obama "Yes, Massa" bow was all about.

Funny thing that swine flu outbreak came out when Obama was in Mexico. As heard from source in Mexico, the US is planing to buy petrol from them, maybe they don't want to tell us so the the oil companies can keep raping us, just like the 9-11 scam.

It is not about left or right, they all work for the same masters....don't you get it??? They want us to squabble over the nuts and bolts instead of looking at the whole damn machine (which is human made, not an imaginary friend named Bob or whatever, you get my point). We are supposed to be a Christian nation, but we believe in killing other humans. You see its all a sham on the common folk, so our dark lords keep getting more rich and powerful. What Next? If you don't believe me then just go sign up for the US Army or Marines and do a couple tours over there in Iraq or Afghanistan then tell me what you think!!! Peace!!! Break the chains that conform our minds!

An interesting take on this issue from Wonkette.

Ok., BMC.. EXACTLY which part of my article are you saying isn't true?
at 09:49 on April 30th, 2009
Nice theory, except the stock has not gone up. If Rummy and the gang were profiting from this phony catastrophe the stock would have to increase in price. I just checked the numbers and they are trading at $46 which is right in the middle of the 52 week high and 52 week low. I love the theory (and would not put it past those a**holes), but this cannot be the cause.
This is purely a media concoction... to many "all news" channels and not enough news. Without Bush to kick around these people don't have anything to do. They certainly are not going to spend any cycles criticizing President Obamaprompter.

The spanish flu was airborne and, therefore, WAY more transmittable. This flu is no worse than the ordinary flu.
at 21:52 on May 4th, 2009
The H1N1 Flu virus is much less contagious that human influenza. So your facts are wrong, this whole thing is being blown out of proportion. I blame Obama.
at 01:35 on May 15th, 2009
There IS no provable cure for normal flu because every year it mutates like, omg you guessed it swine flue.
When you get ill and drink lemsip or take what ever to get better from flu... it doesn't do anything other than hide the symptoms that you are having.
There is so much more to worry about than some pig mutating flu. The nilist in me wants it to become a pandemic would serve us right spending billions on everything other than the real problem.
Our earth. Remember the one we are slowly destroying.

umm...where do I start. Rumsfeld created aspartame...which is KILLING THE BRAIN CELLS OF EVERYONE....ITS IN EVERYTHING! If you've ever eaten anything sugar free....ITS IN THERE! Rumsfeld should go to jail. If you think I'm lying just search it.

Fyi it's not avian flu it's aviar flu. The Swine Flu Hoax is so evident, money makes the world go 'round. what a perfect opportunity to make some bucks, isn't it?. i don't know if you folks remember the Chupacabras, that was a distraction used by the mexican government some time ago. when a crisis was about to occur. the question is: is capitalism going to burst globally?, are we all going to catch this flu?.

the swine flu scam is just what the USDA needs to push its animal disease tracking program called NAIS... NAIS(national animal identification system) is first and foremost, a business plan designed to benefit corporate agriculture and factory farming so they can sell their product on the global level but they way it works will put those who own livestock on a private basis, (such as the Amish) including whoever raised or owned that animal to to be under more surveillance than illegals, drug dealers or child molesters.
The part about tracking animal disease was added later. All those who own even one cow, pig, horse, chicken or other farm animal will be required to register their premises, microchip (RFID) each and every last critter, no matter if it is a pet or potential food. Then they must, under threat of huge fines, tell the govt about all birth, death and off-property movement reports (within 24 hours) on every last critter on the place. If animal disease is even suspected in an area, the USDA can go in and kill all the animals. (6 mile radius or 140 sq miles of animals dead that never came in contact with each other!) The claimed purpose of this oh-so-wonderful-thanks-for-protecting-us program is to provide 48 hour traceback should a disease be suspected. Animals within a 6 mile radius could be killed, though most diseases are preventable, can be vaccinated against or the animal recovers. The only problem with this program is that e-coli happens after the cow is slaughtered, which is when NAIS tracking stops. The beef is most vulnerable to being tainted in those processing plants. And the fact the majority of beef is raised by corporate agriculture, who will not be required to tag and track each animal because they raise them in lots, they they get only ONE number per groups of animals. Any one of those critters in that group could be diseased and who would know. But as long as there are appearances of something being done, the city dwellers will eat in peace, while granny and her few egg hens will be tracked closer than the illegals everybody is making such a fuss about and that will make our beef supply oh so safe. See nonais dot org for more info on the true impact NAIS will have on all of us who eat! The USDA claimed a reason for NAIS was to track and prevent mad cow disease. Yet when Creekstone Beef wanted to test every cow they process for BSE, the USDA says they cannot!!! Creekstone had to take the USDA to court to sue for the right to test for BSE! And what does my reporting to the USDA when I take my horse off my property have to do with big ag selling beef to <?xml:namespace prefix = st1 />Japan? There are already disease protocols in place and they work. NAIS tracking stops at time of slaughter which is when many food safety issues occur by mishandling the meat. I suggest checking out nonais.org and read about how NAIS will negatively affect everyone who eats. The British hoof and mouth disease was traced back to the local lab it had escaped from. The millions of animals killed, only a few thousand tested positive for the disease from which cattle can be cured or vaccinated. The British ag officials do not want to vaccinate. The famous 'bird flu' that ran from China through Turkey less than 300 humans out of 6 billion died from that disease while thousands die from regular flu in the US each month.at 05:32 on April 30th, 2009
And I suppose the Holocaust never happened? Man never landed on the moon? Bill Clinton assasinated all his political opponents? AIDS is a hoax? Was FOCA in the bible too?
at 10:51 on April 30th, 2009
I too have been checking the stock prices.. but this isn't over yet. The stock will only go up once government contracts are signed for mass vaccinations. Moreover, if you check the history of the stock, you'll see that it has been growing steadily for 5 years. It started at $8 and now it's at $48. Maintaining that value is more than enough of an indication of market manipulation.

Yes definately, a sickness pandemeic possibility. But not before the corporarions have passed enough 3AM laws in their monetary favor whilst you sleep a sheep-like slumber. After all, you've had a hard day at work. Eat some more chinese take-out, slurp down a few more drinks and take a f'cking Ambien or two before bed. Get your ass up the next day and do it all over again, and don't forget to reward yourself daily for your troubles, by slapping a few more bucks on your credit card during lunch shopping time.
Wake TFU you dunbasses!!! Conspiracy or not, you tell me what you think your world would be like without corporations and governement laws. And by government laws, I'm not talking about the 4-way stop signs in front of your local Hanniford suprmarket. (Whilst I'm at it, GO to your local grocer, and sit within clear view of the entrance/exit for 30 minutes. You'll have spent 30 minutes witnessing the global problem. The entire American fatass global problem!)
The issues aren't money, prostitution, abortion, drugs, or your stupid daytime job security. The problem is your slavery to the credit companies and banks, for things you've been taught to own. "You've absolutely GOT TO HAVE that SUV to haul those two children you never planned around town". You've GOT TO HAVE that 50" LCD TV, and in case you have a moment's worth of sanity thinking you don't need any of these things, well then what will your FAMILY AND NEIGHBORS ever think of you?
You'll suck the gov't dick if it means you won't have to downsize in the face of your neighbors.
Fuck the gov't, and fuck loans. Car loans, house loans, student loans, Walmart loans, Visa, Mastercard, American Express and Discover. If not, you will have become (if you aren't already) niggers beyond colour.

Let us not forget CODEX is due to be implemented December 31, 2009. What a great cover to get this in place on time. CODEX will outlaw all natural medicine, all nutrients, all organic food, add more poison to water, air quality, food, etc. and demand one kind of food GMO. Once implemented the global criminals expect to see three Billion people die within 3 or so years - globally. This entire flu hype seems to be the lynch pin to the final attempt of their criminal scheme of a total global COMMERCIAL CORPORATION. It touches all the structures of a military police state and total tyranny, the falling of an empire. If this occurs, humanity will be in total enslavement. Kissinger stated he would have American's weapons by September. The timing here is very ominous. I feel like there are two trains about to have a head on collision at 100 miles per hour. For a better understanding about CODEX search "Nutricide - Criminalizing Natural Health..." video.

The thing that puts a flag up on this post is there is so much relating into the Bush side of the story, which is a technique of governance of fascism. Do not for one moment think that the Obama people are any better because they aren't. Proof of that is the man is doing NOTHING. IF this is such a threat, he would close the boarders, which he hasn't. Instead he is implementing policies that the Bush Administration and Clinton Administration has put in place for all the police state, martial law, detention camps, forced vaccinations ... or detention. Part of this plan is also to take down this country economically and offer such socialistic goodies as 'universal health care' aka CODEX. This technique of governance is communistic. So we have NO left or Right in reality... that is a hoax just like this pandemic, the two are working together for the depopulation of the planet, and for a total police state. It is MY opinion that this is a publication that is blinded by the left and has no capacity at the current time to see clearly that there is no left or right, it is a world according to Hegel and his Hegelarian Dialectic. The other thing that bothers me with this site is the logo. If you notice, it contains the 'eye of Horus' or the all seeing eye. Symbolism is something to be watched, for one can tell who is who within the logo. So I urge you, although this article is informing, it is NOT complete... there are some very nasty things Obama will do... his orders is to destroy America. Sadly too many are so hypnotised with his sweet tongue, he is bitter for the planet. BE AWARE... not all is well in Amerika. BE AWAKE.

this is funny yeah its all a conservatives scam, last time I checked the liberals have always controlled the main stream media and they currently they control the US government. So Sorry nice try with your conspiracy theory but try again
