Default Rev. Jeremiah Wright is Right about.... - 05-05-08, 01:29 PM

Rev. Jeremiah Wright is Right about how U.S. Government Uses Blacks for Medical Experiments, Including AIDS‏

Rev. Jeremiah Wright is Right about how U.S. Government Uses Blacks for Medical Experiments, Including AIDS


(NaturalNews) Regarding the current controversy about Rev. Wright and U.S. Presidential candidate Barack Obama, Rev. Wright is actually quite correct about the U.S. government's exploitation of black Americans for medical experiments (and worse). What Rev. Wright is saying about the way the U.S. government has treated blacks in the last 200 years is remarkably accurate to anyone who has bothered to actually study American history. For starters, I recommend you read A People's History of the United States by Howard Zinn, which will give you quite a horrifying account of how the FBI sought to assassinate black leaders, how law enforcement authorities looked the other way when crimes were committed against blacks, and many other difficult-to-believe (but true) facts about the history of America.


But that's just the beginning. The real horrors become even more clear when you look at the history of blacks being used for medical experiments in the United States. The Tuskegee experiments only scratch the surface. In reality, the history of conventional medicine in the U.S. is filled with true accounts of black women, black prisoners and black babies being openly used in extreme medical experiments where they were injected with deadly substances, denied medical treatment to see what might happen as the disease progressed, and even used in government-sanctioned experiments like the EPA's recent experiments on toxic chemicals in low-income children, which happened just a few years ago in New York.


Skeptical that any of this really happened? Maybe you just haven't learned any of this yet. To help you out, I've published a list of just a few of the medical experiments conducted on blacks, minorities and prisoners in the United States. You can read the list yourself here: Human medical experimentation in the United States: The shocking true history of modern medicine and psychiatry (1833-1965)


Part two is here: Human medical experimentation in the United States: The shocking true history of modern medicine and psychiatry (1965-2005)


One account included in that list reads as follows:


1963: Chester M. Southam, who injected Ohio State Prison inmates with live cancer cells in 1952, performs the same procedure on 22 senile, African-American female patients at the Brooklyn Jewish Chronic Disease Hospital in order to watch their immunological response. Southam tells the patients that they are receiving "some cells," but leaves out the fact that they are cancer cells. He claims he doesn't obtain informed consent from the patients because he does not want to frighten them by telling them what he is doing, but he nevertheless temporarily loses his medical license because of it. Later, Dr. Southam becomes president of the American Cancer Society.


As you can see, not only are these human medical experimentation doctors NOT convicted of their crimes against blacks and minorities, they are promoted to top positions in the medical establishment!


It gets worse: The genocide continues even today

And yet, despite all the horrifying history of medical experimentation on blacks and minorities in the United States -- much of it sponsored by the U.S. government -- the situation is even worse today because conventional medicine is engaged in a deliberate effort to deny black people access to the truth about sunlight, vitamin D, cancer and skin color. As NaturalNews readers well know, the reason breast cancer and prostate cancer rates are so much higher in black women and men is because dark skin pigmentation blocks the healing UV rays that create vitamin D in the skin, thereby leaving black men and women chronically deficient in vitamin D. That deficiency, in turn, greatly boosts their rates of cancer -- by nearly 500%! (The cancer industry loves this, by the way. It means lots of repeat business for cancer drugs and mammograms in the future.)


But instead of educating black men and women about this simple connection, the modern cancer industry (and medical establishment) refuses to tell black people the truth, thereby enslaving them in a system of high-profit medical treatments, all while pretending they have no idea why breast cancer is so much more aggressive in black women. Read my article, Vitamin D Recommendation Missing From Breast Cancer Task Force Report on Black Women at Vitamin D Recommendation Missing From Breast Cancer Task Force Report on Black Women


Today, I've posted a scathing audio podcast on this topic, accusing the modern medical establishment of being engaged in crimes against blacks through its unwillingness to tell people the truth about why dark-skinned individuals need far more sunlight than white-skinned individuals. This audio podcast dares to tell the truth about the racist policies of modern medicine, and why Big Pharma wants to turn the bodies of black men and women into profit centers. You can listen to it right now at: Podcasts


Of course, this profit exploitation motive isn't limited to blacks. Whites, Asians and everybody else are also targeted for medical profits, but blacks are disproportionately impacted by the lack of truthful information about cancer and vitamin D due to their unique skin pigmentation. In other words, the intentional censorship of factual information about sunlight, vitamin D and cancer results in far more harm to black people than anyone else!


Obama sticks his head in the sand

Barack Obama, for his part, is now pretending the U.S. government never conducted medical experiments on blacks, or that it's "un-American" to even talk of such things. These are the typical lies you'll hear from any politician running for office, especially when that office is in a country where 99% of the people have been kept in the dark about these matters. In reality, I say it's un-American to treat black people in the way they've been treated throughout American history. I say that all of us -- white, black, Hispanic, Asian, Hispanic, etc. -- have the right to be treated with dignity, with respect, and with our basic human rights intact. No person, no matter what their skin color, should be used for medical experiments, and when those experiments have taken place, it is the duty of honest citizens and the few remaining honest journalists to publicize those events in order to help ensure they never happen again.


Obama was quoted in the press yesterday as saying about Dr. Wright, "But when he states and then amplifies such ridiculous propositions as the U.S. government somehow being involved in AIDS. ... There are no excuses. They offended me. They rightly offend all Americans and they should be denounced."


In other words, Obama is saying that anyone speaking out about the U.S. government's exploitation of blacks and its involvement in the AIDS virus should be denounced. Note carefully that he did not say the U.S. government's medical experiments on blacks should be denounced! Rather, the people warning others about such activities should be denounced!


Or, put another way, Obama wants people to just shut up and pretend the U.S. government never committed these evils against blacks. He doesn't want the truth to come out. He's running for President, after all, and it's better to just whitewash important issues than to have to deal with them honestly and openly.


It is never the wrong time to tell the truth

Some say that merely bringing up these topics is divisive and destructive to the country. To that naive criticism, I say this: As a human being, it is my responsibility to do everything in my power to stand up for those less fortunate. From the black babies injected with contagious diseases who couldn't fend for themselves, to the foster care children who were "recruited" for the EPA's experiments on chemical toxicity, these babies and children need people like you and me to come to their defense.


They are defenseless: The poor, the young, the children without parents... these unfortunate ones are being swept up into Big Pharma's deadly medical experiments and the U.S. government's dangerous experiments for military and industrial purposes. Who will defend them if not us? And how will we ever make sure we don't repeat these true horrors of American history if we're not even willing to admit they happened in the first place?


Rev. Wright is telling people the truth about how the government has treated blacks, and it makes Obama nervous. Obama is living in a state of denial, which is actually great practice for becoming U.S. President. Those skills will come in quite handy during future press conferences. What better way to become the first black President of the United States than to deny the history of how the U.S. treated blacks in the first place?


“There is no harder misfortune in all human history than when the powerful of the earth are not also the first men. Then everything becomes false and awry and monstrous. And when they are even the last men and more beast than man, then the value of rabble rises higher and higher and at last the rabble-virtue says: Behold, I alone am virtue.”- S.A.Israel

For the record, I don't know for sure whether the government introduced AIDS into the population, but I've read a lot of books on epidemics and the AIDS virus in particular (including books by Len Horowitz, who I highly recommend as an author), and I can state with certainty that I highly suspect AIDS was, in fact, engineered by the U.S. government and intentionally introduced into the population as either a weapon of genocide or a population control measure. It all sounds quite sinister, but once you learn about what the CDC, FDA, EPA and USDA have already done to harm and kill so many people in the last few decades, it's not a stretch of any kind to consider the possibility that the government may have also been involved in the creation and release of the AIDS virus.


My main point, however, is that regardless of what you think about AIDS and the government, at the very least we should all be able to openly discuss these ideas and debate them without being instantly denounced for merely bringing up the subject.


Remember, those who are the quickest to denounce so-called "conspiracy theories" are those who are least capable of standing up to honest debate. It's the same for many issues: Vaccinations, fluoridation, 9/11 terror attacks, the AIDS virus, the war on Iraq and many more. Candidates like Obama don't want the American people to actually think for themselves or question the status quo, because the minute people start questioning the status quo, the whole fragile U.S. economy and Big Brother power centers would start to crumble. The continuity of the U.S. empire depends, in large part, on the continued ignorance of the American public about what's really true.


Recommended reading: Emerging Viruses: AIDS And Ebola : Nature, Accident or Intentional? by Leonard Horowitz


By the way, if you're a member of a black church and you're interested in learning more on this topic, I'd be thrilled to visit your church and present some of this information about cancer, sunlight, skin pigmentation and the conspiracy to deny black men and women access to the information they need to prevent cancer and save their own lives. Just contact me through the NaturalNews offices, and if I'm in your part of the country in the future, I'd be happy to stop by and talk to your church congregation about what's really going on with the cancer industry and its blatant exploitation of black men and women in this country. It's not a happy topic, I realize, but it's one that needs to be told. And I'm not afraid to tell it like it is.


Because here's the truth in all this: I have information right now that could prevent 90% of all cancer in black men and women. And I'd be thrilled to share that information with people. I personally find the black community to be very open to this information, probably because they are rightly skeptical about the way the medical establishment has treated them for so many decades. They know they're being lied to, used and exploited by wealthy corporations and corrupt government officials. They know it! They just don't know where to turn for real answers to this cancer problem.


Mother Nature has the answers, folks, and it's time we told the truth about cancer so that we can end the pain and disease in the black community that has caused so much suffering (and generated so much money for Big Pharma and the cancer industry). It's time to stop the genocide and start the healing. If we're going to move forward, together, as a nation of people who truly have equal rights and equal opportunities, then we've got to stop the cancers, stop the censorship and start the healing. It's the only way to move forward.

It doesn't matter if there is validity to what he is saying. He's hurting Obama's chances. He needs to shut up.........

Well,K,first of all, as I've already said, he didn't JUST start spouting it. YOU just started hearing about it, because it's a problem for white folks. Kind of similar to AA's using the N-word,lol. He's BEEN spouting it for 20 years, and Black folks(including Obama) didn't have a problem with it til white folks decided they would vote for Negro candidate for PRez. Secondly, that all depends on whether we as Black people ever actually want him to DO anything about it, or the myriad other things that affect African people negatively or whether we just like the idea of "talking" about all the foul ish that is done to us,which i'm starting to believe is the case. If he can't even it ADMIT that it exists,(btw, I don't think his not admitting it is just a function of getting elected, I really think he doesn't think AMerica is "like that anymore"), what makes you think he plans to DO anything about it? He may be for all intents and purposes a more EFFECTIVE FRONT/COVER, for all of the dirt that is done by AMerica to AA's as well as BLacks in other places. I can't believe that has never entered the minds of most Black folks.

THe point that most Black people seem to be missing in all of this is that Obama's whole claim to fame has been REJECTING the concept of there being a different America for BLacks and Whites, that all of these racial things are in the PAST. That in effect, RACE is a non issue. Yet, somehow we believe that he is going to either be inclined or able(if he is inclined, which i don't think he will be), to rectify these things, when he can't even admit or address them(or address things WAY less controversial and way more benign for that matter).

If ya'll are thinking he can play it one way before he gets into office and then switch up on these Crackers, ya'll have another thing coming. THese mofos have killed more than a few WHITE Presidents, who they believe betrayed their trust/vote of confidence in them, or who they believed were on a path to taking this country down a road that was antithetical to what they saw as staying TRUE to this country's (read white folks)ideals/creed/. You better recognize and remember who you are dealing with........

G... of course he has been spouting it for 20 years plus...that point is well made... However that is NOT the point i'm making. My point is that since this issue was stirred up, Obama dealt with it, it was dead.. Wright then choose to restir the pot in the most public way possible... So my point is what is the point? If he is about 'liberation theology' as HE claims his behaviour is a contradiction.. You don't liberate by destroying the very OPPORTUNITY that might give the BLACK struggle some prominance, furthermore even if Obama did shaft him, the question is, in the vcontext of the Election one could understand why it happened.. Therefore the question follows am i going to defend myself at the expense of the wider Black good, or take one for the team...

Wright choose to put himself BEFORE the 'Liberation Theology' he espouses and THATS why he is nothing but a self serving demigod..

Are we getting it yet?
What does all this deep concern/frustration/anquish over Wright saying this stuff, and thus seeming to derail Obama's chances for the BIG ONE, tell us?

1. That black people are their own worst enemy and that as soon as one of us is in a position to 'achieve' something big (the American Presidency no less) one of our own has to spoil it?

OR

2. For any high position/status (in areas seen as the domain of Whites) to be achieved by one or more of us (Blacks), it depends HEAVILY on acquiescence from whites? Thus the success of such lofty pursuits relies on WHITES feeling 'safe' or 'comfortable' enough with a black occupying said position.

If you believe the Obama/Wright scenario is testiment to 1. then we should start making effigies of Wright and sticking pins in it. Who knows, some Obama supporters might be doing that already.

If on the other hand you think 2. applies maybe we need to wake up and smell the coffee and recognise the FUTILITY of hoping that we could ever secure a place within the White Man's system/organisation/set up that would effectively allow us to manufacture meaningful change for BLACKS. Then maybe come to realise that the answer lies in BUILDING SOMETHING OF OUR OWN which is to be the means for OUR ellevation, OUR protection and security, and (ostensibly) for OUR benefit.

Man, if achieving 'something' in the White Man's yard demands that there must not even be the SLIGHTEST err toward upsetting or giving concern to him by our WORDS, our BEHAVIOUR or......hell, even our VERY BEING....I question the worth of it all.
Geeze it is almost like trying to play a game of 'Operations' or 'Bucking Bronco' blindfolded and using your feet instead of your hands.......as Obama is finding out as he tries to negotiate the dual seas of 'Keeping whitey appeased' and 'matching the expectations of an expectant AA public.

Respect


In their dealings with each other the Wise Man and the Fool believe they can outwit the other. However, the Wise Man KNOWS when he is dealing with a fool!

If one even understands what it means to be "Liberated", especially in regard to the African experience, then it doesn't matter if Obama is elected or not. I certainly didn't expect Wright to just sit there and watch both his religion and person character undergo a silent defenseless death. It is only neurotic that we continue to look to the same channels that inferiorized us in the first place for "liberation". Perhaps Wright understands this and doesn't care if he "hurts Obama's chances" as Obama plays a very small role (if any at all) in the big picture of African Liberation.

By the way, we have apparently had six (6) at least partially-African U.S. Presidents thus far which were well known at the time, and these were during some of the country's most pervasive periods of racism/White Supremacy (reference Six Black Presidents: Black Blood, White Masks USA by Dr. Auset Bakhufu). Inordinate focus on the least important is characteristic of a people with cultural amnesia.

So what difference does it make now if Barack Obama is elected president? Focusing on this dumb shyt is depressing as it shows we as a people are truly INSANE doing the same thing over and over again while expecting different results. I am more concerned about Africans turning away from African Liberation ideology in general than whether Barack Obama wins the U.S. presidency.


If we were real citizens, then there would be no need for "Civil Rights". There are already enough laws on the law books to protect the rights of real citizens.

Well, my take on it is that WRight POSSIBLY does not think Obama necessarily intends to make the Black struggle prominent as Prez, especially since he can't even acknowledge some of the more basic truths about race in this country, or some of the behaviors that this country has behaved in, things that are not even up for discussion or debate, but are documentable.

The fact that WRight was going along with the program initally, makes me think that something happened in the year and 3 months interim, that made him feel less REASON to continue going along and LESS reason to feel that Obama was really going to be any different than any other candidate/President, thus the comments about him being a typical politician. Prior to that race speech, WRight was giving SEARING critiques of HIllary Clinton AND Bill Clinton(who he at one time was ALSO casually supportive of , since we wanna act like he doesn't have the right to change his opinion on folks or like he doesn't have a track record of supporting folks then criticizing them something awful,lol) in the pulpit and basically endorsing Obama from the pulpit, eventhough churches are not supposed to endorse candidates if they want to keep their tax exempt status.I submit it was the marginalizing of him and his views as crazy/delusional/bitter/angry/old, in that race speech that made him "cool" on Obama.

Liberation theology does not have as one of it's tenets, only telling the truth about oppression when it is convenient. What kind of liberation are BLack folks going to be getting if they have to get it on a premise that is a LIE, or better yet on a premise that as it's core tenet says that Black liberation theology is fringe-esque /irrelevant/unrealistic and has no place in AMerica ?I got news for u, they wont' be getting liberation, they will be getting sold a bill of goods, AS USUAL..... Obama's whole articulated world view(from 2004 when he first came on the national scene), is CONTRARY to the idea of Black liberation theology, which has a NATIONALISTIC bent to it. So, it's really not a surprise that there would be conflict.

Farrakhan, Sharpton to a lesser extent and Black folks who have a nationalistic orientation in general, are rendering themselves and their worldview null and void and irrelevant by so blindly and completely supporting Obama. If ya'll don't think that that was/is the intent and purpose behind white support of a candidate like Obama,(that is to say to PROVE that race is no longer relevant), you haven't been paying attention for the past oh ....500 years......I sincerely hope what ya'll get out of the deal is worth that. Oddly enough, you saw some evidence of that in the Sean Bell verdict. Sharpton(and some regular rank and file Black folks) who initially wanted to call for a much more radical Black response, had to temper that when Obama basically came out with a predictably TEPID(this wasn't really about race) response. Sharpton's on Obama's dick, so he's boxed himself into a corner now,lol. THere will be more where that came from. MARK MY WORDS.

THe lesson in all of this for me, is that when you make alliances with folks based on Political EXPEDIENCY, instead of really sharing a common world view and common goals,(which is what I think Obama did, in relationship to Wright and his church, I think that's what WRight now thinks TOO, btw), a. you need to know that your are building a house on sand(therefore you should take it for what it's worth, and no more than that), and b. you need to know that just like YOU had/have a personal agenda, the other mofo may have one TOO, and that once those 2 agendas collide, you shouldn't be surprised, and you shouldn't be surprised that happened, and you shouldn't be surprised if the other person does not defer to YOUR agenda.......This man(WRight) has been doing his thing thing for 30 years, what makes you think he's going to accept that YOUR agenda is what is in the best interest of the Black collective, when you can't even show up whereever you hear Negroes are going to be, just cause some white folks and overly emotional Black folks(with NO concrete reason to think so but quite a bit of reason to think the contrary), seem sure that it is,lol.
