Rather than help the media in its never-ending quest to lay misleading smoke screens around the true origins of
Gulf War Syndrome,
General Roquejoffre appears to have used his statement to finally isolate and expose the real villain behind the debilitating and
sometimes lethal disease.
Many years ago before gaining access to the Internet, I wrote a report about the most likely causes of
Gulf War Syndrome. The report
slowly moved around the world by snail mail, and was eventually published in four small magazines. Then I forgot all about the report
for a few years, because the nightmare symptoms being suffered by Gulf War veterans in America and Britain, seemed light years away
from my sleepy little backwater in Western Australia. That was before George W. Bush decided to do the whole thing all over again, in
his increasingly frantic and very public attempts to pillage Middle East oil for Wall Street. Though I am obviously powerless to prevent
Bush from ruthlessly sacrificing American lives in the Iraqi desert, I can at least sound a warning designed to minimize the physical
and psychological impact on servicemen before they leave for the Gulf, and after they hopefully return.
There is no doubt that the panic generated by the false "
War on Terror" is already being used to coerce people into
accepting "
preventative medical treatment", that in a more sane world they would instantly refuse. Most profitable by
far for the pharmaceutical multinationals backing the Bush Dynasty, are inoculations forced onto service men and women by legislation.
Taking the dreaded "Anthrax Shots" as an example, the manufacturer makes a net profit of $18.00 out of every single individual,
a figure that has to be multiplied by 2.4 million to get a true feel for multinational profit margins. It is a harsh fact that the Anthrax
vaccine being forcibly administered to service men and women today, is the same as that included in the deadly Gulf War "cocktail"
inoculations of 1990-1991. This has no meaning whatever for politicians who habitually bend forward over a desk when their masters
approach from behind, but it might have some meaning for you. In the event that the multinationals manage to spark a "civil
emergency" somewhere near your own home, be advised that you too will be forced to accept exactly the same untested but hugely
profitable vaccine as military personnel bound for the Persian Gulf.
The direct relationship between the Anthrax shots of today and the "cocktail" of yesterday is deeply troubling, and is the
prime reason for reviving, editing, and adding to this 1995 report. You might find part of the text disturbing, which is probably a
very good thing. It is difficult to protect your family from government-induced harm if you are not completely alert. "During
late 1995, devastating new evidence on Gulf War Syndrome was released, providing undeniable hard scientific proof for those who have
long suspected that Gulf veterans are suffering short and long-term effects of unproven anti-bacteriological warfare inoculations and
anti-nerve gas tablets, forcibly administered by U.S. Army doctors in Saudi Arabia.
With thousands of U.S. veterans suffering from Gulf War Syndrome, it came as no surprise to learn in October 1995 that several hundred
British veterans were suffering in the same way, with three to five new cases being reported every week. Like their U.S. counterparts,
most were puzzled by the origins of the disease, which they initially attributed to oil-laden smoke in Kuwait, toxic dust from
depleted uranium rounds fired by U.S. weapons, and possible contamination from expended Iraqi chemical shells in the area, fired before
the Gulf War commenced.
In a startling break with tradition, one British military doctor stated that in her view, 99% of the problems could be sourced back to
the anti-bacteriological warfare "
Cocktail Inoculations", and anti-nerve gas tablets forcibly administered to military
personnel in the Gulf region at that time. In an October 1995 broadcast of the ITN TV World News from London, she further explained that
all British military personnel had been provided with the same untested and unproven drugs as the Americans, from U.S. medical sources.
To reinforce the point, the doctor explained that the number of British personnel suffering symptoms correlated exactly on a per capita basis with U.S. personnel.
It was a controversial claim, but apparently lacking in substance.
Shattering confirmation came eleven hours later, when Australian Channel 10 television carried exactly the same story at 5 p.m., but
with an extra piece tagged onto the end. The extra piece claimed that French military personnel in the Gulf region, numbering the same
as the British contingent, had been prevented from taking the "cocktails" and tablets on the direct orders of the French
Commander-in-Chief. The story claimed that since the end of the Gulf War, not a single member of the French military has suffered from
Gulf War Syndrome, or reported any of its symptoms. One hour later at 6 p.m. when the other Australian television networks ran their
news broadcasts, the awesome story with its stunning proof had vanished from sight. Nor was it reported in the Australian newspapers.
For any scientist or veteran, the fact that the French should be completely clear of Gulf War Syndrome while the Americans and British
suffered huge numbers of cases verified on a direct per capita basis, has huge and horrifying implications. After all, the French ate
the same food, drank the same water, breathed the same air and trudged through hundreds of miles of the same desert. They also fired
similar weapons at similar targets. So what were the additional factors that made the French unique in their ability to completely
withstand the deadly Gulf War Syndrome? The truth is there were none at all, save for the experimental American "cocktail"
inoculations and nerve gas tablets. What the French had done, almost by accident, was provide hard scientific proof of the direct
cause of Gulf War Syndrome. This proof took the form of its large 25,000-strong contingent of French servicemen participating n the
Gulf War, who in all respects constituted a valid medical "control group".
For the uninitiated, here is an example of how a "
control group" might be used in medical trials: Let us say that the
manufacturer of a new "chest hair" drug wants to run a clinical trial to check its efficiency, using 500,000 men. Out of this
total, 475,000 [Americans and Brits] are given the real "chest hair" pill, while the remaining 25,000 [French] are used as a
control group and given only a placebo, i.e. an identical looking sugar-coated pill with no active ingredients. If at the end of the
trial all men with enhanced chest hair were found in the main group, with not a single case in the control group, the new "chest
hair" drug would immediately be approved by medical authorities. It really is that simple. Applying the same process in reverse,
proves in definitive medical terms that untested Anthrax and botulism potions kill far more servicemen than enemy gunfire.
In an attempt to confirm this vital though very short-lived Gulf War Syndrome data, the author contacted the French Military Attaché
in Australia and inquired if it was correct that the French Commander-in-Chief forbade his own personnel the untested substances.
The Military Attaché was happy to confirm this, and also confirmed that not one French soldier or airman has suffered since the end
of the Gulf War. It seemed to be a subject of which he was very proud, and rightly so. Perhaps it is time for U.S. and British veterans
to confirm the same points with their local French consulates, before taking a very hefty legal swing at their own governments."
On
3rd October 1996, nine months after this report was first published in two small American magazines, and then brought to
the attention of the White House, the prestigious New York Times suddenly added a new dimension [and thus a possible new cause for Gulf
War Syndrome]. According to the newspaper, an Iraqi chemical weapons dump at Kamisiyah was bombed extensively by U.S. jets before the
ground campaign, meaning soldiers could have been exposed before their assault. The New York Times did not attempt to explain why this
news was being reported five years after the event, nor why it was suddenly so important to bring the matter to the attention of the
American public.
Once again, affected veterans and the public settled down into a confused silence, their suspicions blunted by media-induced patriotic
guilt. How dare they even imagine that caring American pharmaceutical multinationals would hurt them or their families, when all along
the real culprit was obviously Saddam Hussein and his evil "weapons of mass destruction"? The Kamisiyah "link"
to Gulf War Syndrome was ruthlessly exploited, with official Pentagon confirmation that the dump itself was finally destroyed on 4 March
1991 by the 37th Engineering Battalion, who "did not know" that nerve gas was stored there when they triggered the demolition
charges. So, victims and public alike were coaxed into believing that American and other troops located downwind of the demolition, had
been affected solely by "Iraqi" toxins.
It was truly brilliant media propaganda, but failed to take into account those incredibly annoying Frenchmen, who seemed to be everywhere
in southern Iraq at the same time as the Americans and British. Proportionately speaking, the same number of "French Control
Group" troops were present when Kamisiyah was bombed and finally demolished, but not one of them suffered or even reported any of
the effects of "Gulf War Syndrome". And before you ask, yes, the French did indeed trudge wearily through the same areas of
southern Iraq littered with depleted uranium 238 as the Americans and British. But still there is absolutely no trace of Gulf War
Syndrome in any French soldier.
It does not take a rocket scientist to work out where this report is heading. Just look at the hard facts and ignore the pathetic lobby,
media, and academic hype. As already discussed, all coalition troops regardless of nationality shared the same air and water, they all
walked or drove over the same terrain, and they all used similar weapons against similar targets. But what about external body
protection? Did the French have vastly superior bio-warfare suits that somehow magically gave them "the edge" over American
and British personnel? No, they did not. The bio-warfare suits worn by the French, came from exactly the same stock as those worn by
the Americans and British. The only variables left at this point in the report, are the un-trialed "cocktail" inoculations
and the nerve gas tablets.
Under heavy media pressure in late October 2000, the retired commander of French forces in the Gulf, General Michel Roquejoffre,
admitted that his men were in fact ordered to take nerve gas tablets [pyridostigmine bromide] during the Gulf War, but only for four
days when mistakenly believed to be under direct chemical attack. The General pointed out that this four days of intermittent French
exposure to nerve gas tablets, contrasts sharply with their continuous use for months on end by American and British servicemen.
However, General Roquejoffre emphasized that at no time did he allow any French serviceman to receive the highly controversial
un-trialed American "cocktail" inoculation.
Rather than help the media in its never-ending quest to lay misleading smoke screens around the true origins of Gulf War Syndrome,
General Roquejoffre appears to have used his statement to finally isolate and expose the real villain behind the debilitating and
sometimes lethal disease. Having "admitted" that some of his troops took the nerve gas tablets during the Gulf War, General
Roquejoffre has wittingly or unwittingly removed the nerve gas tablet variable, leaving only the lethal American "cocktail"
inoculation, which included the untested Anthrax vaccine being irresponsibly peddled today by assorted western politicians, as the sole
and scientifically proven cause of Gulf War Syndrome.
British Servicemen Throw Deadly Anthrax Vaccine Overboard!
January 25th 2003 Up-Date
On
January 4th 2003 a confidential copy of my updated report on the single cause of
Gulf War Syndrome was sent directly to a number of
military computer servers in America, Britain and Australia. With servicemen already being ordered to submit to a debilitating or lethal
dose of un-trialed and unproven Anthrax "vaccine" directly linked to GWS, it seemed wise to ensure that they saw the work
before it was officially posted on the Internet. Web sites can be attacked all too easily, and a number of mine have been totally
destroyed in the last six months.
Not long after Prime Minister Tony Blair arrogantly waved goodbye to 30,000 British servicemen departing England for the Persian
Gulf aboard a fleet of Navy vessels, locals in Dorset and Devon started reporting a very strange phenomenon. Thousands of [unused]
vials of Anthrax Vaccine started washing up on their beaches. Some locals started panicking, thinking that perhaps they were being
attacked by a country or countries known to have vast stockpiles of this ruthless killer - most notably America and Israel. But their
heart rates came down again when Health Department officials visited the areas and explained the thousands of vials on the beaches
were in fact "cures in bottles". Jim Moore, a spokesman for the National Gulf Veterans and Families Association (
NGVFA), said
his organization has no conclusive proof that the vaccine vials that washed up in Dorset, southern England, were thrown overboard.
But Moore noted that the circumstances surrounding the vaccine find are suspicious.
"For anything to be accidentally washed overboard on an aircraft carrier is highly unusual," he said. "This gives us
cause for concern and there are a lot of questions that need to be asked." The organization said it has heard anecdotal evidence of
mistiming of vaccines from current service personnel. The NGVFA believes that improperly administered vaccines might be one of the causes behind "
Gulf War Syndrome", a mysterious collection of symptoms that is thought
to afflict tens of thousands of veterans in Britain and the United States. "People say you accept the risks when you sign up to
join the forces," Moore said. "That's true, but the risk you accept is one of an enemy bullet or a landmine. You don't accept
the risk of being a guinea pig for a vaccine, all the mistakes made in the Gulf War are being made again."
A Ministry of Defense spokeswoman, speaking on condition of anonymity, said that an internal investigation into the vaccine find was
underway. "We wouldn't like to speculate on where the vaccine might have come from at this stage," she said. "There has
been a large amount of speculation in the press and this isn't helpful. The investigation will uncover the source of the vaccine."
Peering judiciously behind the official veil, of course reveals that the only sources for the thousands of "shipwrecked"
Anthrax vaccine vials were the various naval vessels that had earlier sailed reluctantly for the Persian Gulf on direct political orders.
So the British servicemen have found a way to neutralize the second most deadly danger to their lives. Now all they have to do, is to
figure out a way to neutralize the most clear and present danger ever to threaten their families and themselves: Prime Minister Tony Blair
