“Thank You” from Robert Gallo MD
Last October, I blogged and emailed this note to Robert Gallo MD and various AIDS truthers after the pharmaceutical company AstraZeneca bought a Nobel Prize for Luc Montagnier - while snubbing Robert Gallo.
Since Gallo and Montagnier are both officially credited as the “co-discoverers” of HIV as the cause of AIDS, the idea that one would merit a Nobel Prize and the other would not raises more questions – and waning American confidence – about HIV and the multi-hundred billion dollar AIDS Industry. More and more Americans are voicing quiet skepticism that HIV ever represented any actual threat to humanity – quiet because voiced questions often result in immediate attacks by AIDS non-profit organizations and government agencies (CDC, FDA, and NIH) that all profit from, and are part of, the AIDS industry.
Americans understand why airlines should not fund the FAA. They know why the Gambino Family doesn’t fund the Justice Department. So why do hospitals fund JCAHO and the pharmaceutical industry funds the FDA, CDC, and NIH?
This dynamic is not dissimilar to the SEC ties that helped Bernard Madoff create the world’s biggest Ponzi scheme. One difference is the scale of AIDS Inc., which dwarfs Madoff’s $50 billion scam. In 2008 alone, Congress sent $48 billion to Africa to fight what the DeBeers Diamond Company claims afflicts ten percent of their impoverished diamond miners. The other is that Gallo’s scam kills healthy people.
DIAMONDS ARE FOREVER
Diamonds are regularly found in proximity to chrysotile (asbestos). Without proper and expensive protection, miners inhale the damaging asbestos fibers. By blaming the subsequent ailments on AIDS, DeBeers can exploit workers in a deadly environment and, when their workers get sick, DeBeers can blame the illness of a worker’s sexual habits rather than accept liability for their workplace environment.
DeBeers is only one of many companies that exploit Africa’s natural resources, including its impoverished and illiterate population. AIDS Inc. gives these companies a compelling tale for naïve politicians and actors to tell. Any questions about the legitimacy of these requests result in attacks. After all, only a monster would deny “lifesaving drugs” to dying gay men (homophobia) or the African people (racism).
DeBeers doesn’t seem to have an asbestosis problem, although most of their long-time workers suffer from lung ailments that are strikingly similar to asbestosis. DeBeers needs AIDS because, without it, they would have little else to blame their miners’ asbestosis on. For DeBeers, AIDS turns African exploitation into a humanitarian cause; and although Madoff’s Ponzi scheme might cause a few heart attacks and suicides, it will cause nothing close to the injuries and death caused by “black box” AIDS drugs.
GALLO’S RESPONSE
After I sent my note to Gallo, he personally thanked me for my “kind supportive letter.” If Gallo wasn’t responsible for so much injury or death around the world, his lapse would be kind of pathetic. Despite being surrounded by AIDS Truthers who rely on continuing funding to preserve this fraud, not one of Gallo’s friends gave him a heads-up regarding my satirical note to him – including Gallo’s own highly paid Director of Public Relations and Marketing.
Madoff and Gallo both illustrate how their scams lasted as long as they did. Madoff and Gallo succeeded not because they’re particularly bright, but because the weak people around them didn’t have the courage to challenge their misconduct. Madoff, Gallo, Nobel, and AstraZeneca are all minor players. The real culprits are the media, politicians, and voters who remain asleep at the wheel.
