The Tuskegee Syphilis Study begins. 200 black men diagnosed with syphilis are never told of their

illness, are denied treatment, and instead are used as human guinea pigs in order to follow the

progression and symptoms of the disease. They all subsequently die from syphilis, their families

never told that they could have been treated.

This is one subject we will cover in depth some day soon.

The Pellagra Incident. After millions of individuals die from Pellagra over a span of two decades,

the U.S. Public Health Service finally acts to stem the disease. The director of the agency admits it

had known for at least 20 years that Pellagra is caused by a niacin deficiency but failed to act since

most of the deaths occurred within poverty-stricken black populations.

Chinese prisoners in Harbin.

Unit 731. Dr Ishii begins field tests of germ warfare and vivisection experiments on thousands of

Chinese soldiers and civilians. Chinese people who rebelled against the Japanese occupation were

arrested and sent to Pingfan where they became human guinea pigs; there is evidence that some

Russian prisoners were also victims of medical atrocities. I cut him open from the chest to the

stomach and he screamed terribly and his face was all twisted in agony.He made this

unimaginable sound, he was screaming so horribly. But then finally he stopped. This was all in a

days work for the surgeons, but it really left an impression on me because it was my first time.

These prisoners were called maruta (literally logs) by the Japanese. After succumbing to induced

diseases including bubonic plague, cholera, anthrax the prisoners were usually dissectedwhile still alive, their bodies then cremated within the compound. Tens of thousands died. The

atrocities were committed by some of Japans most distinguished doctors recruited by Dr. Ishii.

extensive U.S. study of the health effects of fluoride, which was the key chemical component inatomic bomb production. One of the most toxic chemicals known to man, fluoride, it is found,

causes marked adverse effects to the central nervous system but much of the information is

squelched in the name of national security because of fear that lawsuits would undermine full-

scale production of atomic bombs.

U.S. secret deal with Ishii and Unit 731 leaders cover up of germ warfare data based on human

experimentation in exchange for immunity from war-crimes prosecution. A top-secret U.S. Army

Far East Command report on Thompsons findings reads: The value to the U.S. of Japanesebiological weapons data is of such importance to national security as to far outweigh the value

accruing from war-crimes prosecution. A 1956 FBI memorandum reveals that by the mid-1950s

the U.S. knew everything about Ishiis human experiments but agreed not to prosecute in

exchange for Japans scientific data on germ warfare. (In other words, when it comes to human

torture and sacrifice, even of American POWS, the ends justify the means as far as the U.S.

Government is concerned.and, the U.S. Government placed a very high value on knowledge of

efficient ways to kill large numbers of people )

children (who were fed radioactive oatmeal without the consent of their parents), and also from

Linda MacDonald was a victim of Dr. Ewen Camerons destructive mind control experiments in

1963. Dr. Cameron was at various times president of the American, Canadian, and World

brainwashing techniques; drug disinhibition, prolonged sleep treatment, and prolonged isolation,

combined with ECT [Electro Convulsive Therapy] treatments. The amount of electricity introduced

into Lindas brain exceeded by 76.5 times the maximum amount recommended. Dr. Camerons

technique resulted in permanent and complete amnesia. To this day, Linda is unable to remember

anything from her birth to 1963. As recorded by nurses in her chart, she didnt know her name and

didnt recognize her children. She couldnt read, drive, or use a toilet. Not only did she not know
