Dear World Citizens:
I have read a number of articles from your Internet outreach as well as articles from other sources about the casualties in Liberia and other West African countries about the human devastation caused by the Ebola virus. About a week ago, I read an article published in the Internet news summary publication of the Friends of Liberia that said that there was an agreement that the initiation of the Ebola outbreak in West Africa was due to the contact of a two-year old child with bats that had flown in from the Congo. That report made me disconcerted with the reporting about Ebola, and it stimulated a response to the Friends of Liberia, saying that African people are not ignorant and gullible, as is being implicated. A response from Dr. Verlon Stone said that the article was not theirs, and that Friends of Liberia was simply providing a service. He then asked if he could publish my letter in their Internet forum. I gave my permission, but I have not seen it published. Because of the widespread loss of life, fear, physiological trauma, and despair among Liberians and other West African citizens, it is incumbent that I make a contribution to the resolution of this devastating situation, which may continue to recur, if it is not properly and adequately confronted. I will address the situation in five (5) points:
1. EBOLA IS A GENETICALLY MODIFIED ORGANISM (GMO)
Horowitz (1998) was deliberate and unambiguous when he explained the threat of new diseases in his text, Emerging Viruses: AIDS and Ebola - Nature, Accident or Intentional. In his interview with Dr. Robert Strecker in Chapter 7, the discussion, in the early 1970s, made it obvious that the war was between countries that hosted the KGB and the CIA, and the manufacture of AIDS-Like Viruses was clearly directed at the other. In passing during the Interview, mention was made of Fort Detrick, the Ebola Building, and a lot of problems with strange illnesses in Frederick [Maryland]. By Chapter 12 in his text, he had confirmed the existence of an American Military-Medical-Industry that conducts biological weapons tests under the guise of administering vaccinations to control diseases and improve the health of black Africans overseas. The book is an excellent text, and all leaders plus anyone who has interest in science, health, people, and intrigue should study it. I am amazed that African leaders are making no acknowledgements or reference to these documents.
2. EBOLA HAS A TERRIBLE HISTORY, AND TESTING HAS BEEN SECRETLY TAKING PLACE IN AFRICA
I am now reading The Hot Zone, a novel, by Richard Preston (copyrighted 1989 and 1994); it is heart-rending. The prolific and prominent writer, Steven King, is quoted as saying that the book is One of the most horrifying things I have ever read. What a remarkable piece of work. As a New York Times bestseller, The Hot Zone is presented as A terrifying true story. Terrifying, yes, because the pathological description of what was found in animals killed by the Ebola virus is what the virus has been doing to citizens of Guinea, Sierra Leone and Liberia in its most recent outbreak: Ebola virus destroys peoples internal organs and the body deteriorates rapidly after death. It softens and the tissues turn into jelly, even if it is refrigerated to keep it cold. Spontaneous liquefaction is what happens to the body of people killed by the Ebola virus! The author noted in Point 1, Dr. Horowitz, chides The Hot Zone for writing to be politically correct; I understand because his book makes every effort to be very factual. The 1976 Ebola incident in Zaire, during President Mobutu Sese Seko, was the introduction of the GMO Ebola to Africa.

Allegations like this are not going to make the situation better.

(6,086 posts)Ebola is ENDEMIC in parts of Western and Central Africa, with fruit bats being the main "KNOWN" vector NOT the DoD or anyone else. This disease has been responsible for "KNOWN" outbreaks since the mid seventies but has been picking off people for God knows how many centuries. This idiot knows NOTHING about this disease or how epidemics happen, that much is certain. It's morons like this who are DIRECTLY responsible for people panicking in situations like this SO MUCH WORSE, ie, the attack on the ebola treatment center, releasing dozens of walking vectors of extremely infectious viral disease. DAMN...This PISSES me off to no end.

(111,410 posts)A government overseeing the massive crisis that Ebola-Zaire has brought to the region would do well to arrest him, keep him under arrest without any ability to communicate with medically ignorant people until the crisis is over.
These fucking morons are out there helping the disease spread by spreading ignorance about it.

(28,581 posts)HIV has been able to be traced back to the early 20th century and crossed over to humans from a certain group of chimps in central Africa.
Ebola has been around for a very long time but was generally confined to small rural villages that hunted bushmeat where it would burn itself out.
More conspiracy nut crap spreading misinformation and panic. Things like that are a slap in the face for the researchers and scientists who have worked tirelessly on these types of diseases and to the medical workers on the front lines.

(35,383 posts)Which brings us back to bats. As in an ebola vector.
So, in sum, you can say that conspiracy theorists are the primary vector for a mind-killing disease that causes organs--such as the brain--to soften and hemorrhage.

(146,341 posts)It completely fails all logical tests, and is the worst sort of CT nonsense.
If there is a way to contain this disease and find effective treatments for it, it will come from our research. We didn't create Ebola. There's no logical reason for doing such a thing.
All sorts of nonsense finds publishers. It's too bad this nonsense is further promulgated on websites like DU.
