12-1 "Can We Trust Wikipedia and Its Medical Skepticism?"
Article by Richard Gale and Gary Null
Progressive Commentary Hour August 2, 2018
prn.fm
1-2:30 Rupert Sheldrake "The Resurgence of Nature"
A May 1986 talk by biologist, author, and visionary given at the Ojai Foundation. A fascinating look at the history of the present of the mechanistic vs. the organic view of the universe and nature in our culture and science. Sheldrake is author of 'Science of Nature,' 'Presence of the Past,' and Physics of Angels' and more. The journal 'Nature,' about his first book, stated that they were against burning books but if they changed their mind, Sheldrake's publication would be the first to go.
2:30-3 The Bioneers - Revolution from the Heart of Nature
'Equal Rights Amendment: Time's Up'
Ever since women won the right to vote in 1920, women leaders and their allies have sought to pass an Equal Rights Amendment to drive total equality and justice for women into the U.S. Constitution. It did pass in 1972, but fell three states short of ratification. Today's next wave of the women's movement might finally make the ERA a reality. Why is Constitutional protection so crucial? Join leading advocates Joan Blades (MomsRising co-founder), attorney Kimberle Crenshaw and Jessica Neuwirth (ERA Coalition President) to learn the true story of what's at stake and how life would be different and better for women and men.

FUND DRIVE SCHEDULE
12-1 Dave Emory, 'For the Record 1012 - Food for Thought' Part 2
This program supplements and recapitulates both FTR #912 and AFA #39. In turn, several other, overlapping programs should be examined to flesh out one's understanding of the phenomena discussed here, including: FTR #'s 606, 682 and 686, as well as AFA #16.
Central to our analysis is a look at an excerpt from testimony before a House appropriations subcommittee that was drawing up the defense budget for the following year. (The hearings were in 1969.) The testimony discusses the possibility of using genetic engineering to produce a disease that would be "refractory" to the immune system. This is virtually the clinical definition of AIDS. It is worth noting that the project was funded, and just such a disease-AIDS-appeared in just the time frame posited. It is also worth noting that, in the 2002 edition of A Higher Form of Killing, this passage is omitted!!
. . . As long ago as 1962, forty scientists were employed at the U.S. Army biological warfare laboratories on full-time genetics research. 'Many others,' it was said, 'appreciate the implications of genetics for their own work.' The implications were made more specific that genetic engineering could solve one of the major disadvantages of biological warfare, that it is limited to diseases which occur naturally somewhere in the world. 'Within the next 5 to 10 years, it would probably be possible to make a new infective micro-organism which could differ in certain important respects from any known disease-causing organisms. Most important of these is that it might be refractory to the immunological and therapeutic processes upon which we depend to maintain our relative freedom from infectious disease.' The possibility that such a 'super germ' may have been successfully produced in a laboratory somewhere in the world in the years since that assessment was made is one which should not be too readily cast aside. . .
Purebred Northern Europeans possess a hereditary immunity to infection by HIV, a gene (CCR5Delta 32) that conferred immunity to the Black Death, long believed to have been bubonic plague. Bubonic plague was a major focal point of Third Reich biological weapons research, stemming from SS chief Heinrich Himmler's interest in that disease.
Disguised as a cancer research program, Nazi Germany's plague research was presided over by Kurt Blome, the deputy surgeon general of the Third Reich. Blome went to work for the U.S. under Project Paperclip (also known as Operation Paperclip.) We wonder if the Nazi research into bubonic plague and the emergence of an immune-destroying disease to which only pure-bred Northern Europeans-"Aryans"-were immune might have been the outgrowth of Nazi-inspired U.S. biological weapons research stemming from Paperclip?
Another development in that context is noteworthy:
When the U.S. officially "gave up" biological warfare research, Fort Detrick-the military's top bw research facility, was officially turned over to the National Cancer Institute's Viral Cancer Research Project. Featuring veterans of the U.S. biological warfare research program, the NCI's VCP was implemented by Litton Bionetics, a biotechnology subsidiary of Litton Industries, a major defense contractor. The National Cancer Institute's Viral Cancer Research Project was at the epicenter of U.S. research into AIDS. We strongly suspect that this was a recapitulation of the Third Reich's use of "cancer research."
In both FTR #912 and AFA #39, we highlighted Bayer's projected purchase of Monsanto.
We engage in a line of inquiry that is speculative in nature, evaluating the possibility that companies descended from the I.G. Farben German chemical cartel may absorb Monsanto, the firm noted for its development of genetically modified organisms.
Specifically, Bayer and BASF figured in the reported maneuvering for Monsanto. The deal has passed American anti-trust regulators, with BASF purchasing some $9 billion in former Bayer assets to permit the deal to go forward.
Against the background of the remarkable Bormann capital network's effective control of the firms that descended from I.G. Farben, we ruminate about the possibility of genetically engineered binary pathogens being included in the food supply available to much of the world's population.
Available information highlights possible Underground Reich maneuvering to gain control of firms marketing foodstuffs to middle, lower middle and working class people. This speculation, in turn, is set against the background of information strongly suggesting that AIDS was deliberately developed.
In the context of the purchase of food-producing companies, we note J.A.B Holdings and it's associated Reimann family.
They are owned by a secretive group of German billionaires, mostly related to each other. This group owns (outright or majority) a rather shocking number of major American brands, including Peets Coffee, Panera Bread, Jimmy Choo Shoes, Dougwe Eberts Coffee, and Krispy Kreme Donuts! They appear to be making a major move to dominate the U.S., and perhaps global, coffee industry.
They also own part of 3G, the massive Brazilian holding company (with one of the three heads having the last name Lemann, and the other having Hermann as a middle name). (This is a focal point of FTR #912.)
3G owns Inbev (dominant player in the world's liquor industry), Heinz, Kraft, and Burger King, who they quickly moved to Canada and merged with Tim Hortons, a massive Canadian restaurant chain, for tax breaks. They also own the largest logistics/railroad company in South America and its largest retail shopping company. So, between their interests in JAB and 3G, this one family has their tentacles into a ridiculous amount of commerce.
Like many German corporate citizens, they make their headquarters in Luxembourg.
Is this Bormann money "gulping up companies like a giant amoeba?"
Note how secretive the Reimann family and their operation is: " . . . . The lack of involvement is allegedly part of the family policy, which also includes signing a codex on one's 18th birthday pledging to stay out of the public as much as possible, thus making them one of the most private billionaire families. . . ."
