Officials watching 3 escaped monkeys

[Hugh Manatee Wins]

.....
it is interesting to see how the virus reference just vanished. the URL of the updated story was identical to the original. So if I hadn't copied and pasted that here, it would be gone. At the very least it a great example of the news media deciding what we "need to know."

Ah, the disappearing virus trick.

Reminds me of why 'Harry Potter' was marketed by spooks as a mnemonic inoculation (pun intended) against the big cover-up of SV-40, a carcinogenic monkey virus in the original Salk polio vaccine and which is now in millions of people around the world.

Best subliminal name in 'Harry Potter' - "Severus Snape."

http://harrypotter.wikia.com/wiki/Severus_Snape

Severus Snape (January 9, 1960 - May 2, 1998) was Potions Master (1981-96), Defence Against the Dark Arts professor (1996-97), and Headmaster (1997-1998) of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Snape played an important role in the war against Voldemort.

Hey, accidents happening. Virology has a learning curve. And it needs your kids as guinea pigs.

Just ask Dr. Thomas Francis, the reason for the 'Francis the Talking Mule' movies of the 1950s.

So why a kid named Potter at a mystical school?
Because of Misters Potter and Oxford, of course.

Ya see, there are these things called psyops, subliminal priming, and keyword hijacking and...oh, nevermind.

[justdrew]

well, out of 163 storied found on google news, only three still have any mention of the word virus. as it turns out it was/is Herpes B. So yeah, probably not worth mentioning I guess.

SV-40 though is one hell of a screw-up. I actually knew someone of the right age, who had the right kind of cancer... asked if he'd ever heard of sv-40... I was shocked that he said that's where it's thought his cancer came from, so it seems they are telling people about it. (he went into remission and is still doing fine)

"Genetically targeted weapons could change world politics for ever, and the report notes, advanced forms of biological warfare that can target specific geno-types may transform biological warfare from the realm of terror to a politically useful tool"

From page 60 of the "Rebuilding America's Defenses: Strategy, Forces and Resources For a New Century," September, 2000. (3 pages before the call for a New Pearl Harbor)


Wolfowitz, Kristol and their colleagues suggested that the Pentagon should be thinking about not just germ warfare of which they have plenty of capabilities, but gene warfare.

"Genetic terra-forming could replace diplomacy, or it could change the face of politics if an organism got loose that killed all the people of a particular minority community who tend to vote for a particular political party."

yeah, "Wolfowitz, Kristol and their colleagues" hell - anyone in a position to effectively advocate development of such weapons need to be put somewhere they can get the help they need. Letting such madmen run rampant through the halls of government is criminal negligence. Where anyone responsible that is. The fact that no one is responsible because everyone is responsible is a failing issue with democracy and modern politics generally.

The other possibility is that such developments are not practical or even really foreseeable. Such a virus would likely mutate quickly and effect other races. All the problems with viral bio-warfare crop up too. More likely such talk was primarily part of the bushgang's psywar aimed at driving their political opponents crazy. I mean really, how can "liberals" (as rethugs would term them) stay calm while their declared enemies (the rethugs) are openly talking about such things?

hmmm... I'm getting the feeling I've read something about genetically altered hep-B used to deliver gene therapy...
well, well, here's a patent on just that:
http://www.patentstorm.us/patents/7001760.html

The present invention relates to novel hepatitis B virus vectors for use in gene therapy which can deliver therapeutic genes to liver cells. The invention also provides methods for the production of novel recombinant hepatitis B viruses. The recombinant viruses produced by this invention can deliver therapeutic genes specifically to liver cells either through in vivo or ex vivo therapy protocols. This vector can be used not only to treat liver diseases but also genetic diseases.

if it can 'treat' it can 'cause' too...
___

hmmm, probably not anything to worry about in this case, probably just a SyncroMythoLogical parallelism*. Still, it's something interesting to keep an eye out for.

* SyncroMythoLogical parallelism: a potentially meaningful connection drawn between two or more details typically lacking in any verifiable objective causality yet serving as a clue for further intuitive conceptual development. aka Lucky bullshit; potential rabbit hole territory.

Hugh, you had me looking up Verus Ape for a good 5 minutes before I realized you'd actually made the claim that "Severus Snape" is meant to keep kids from learning about a virus that was cultured from rhesus monkeys?

As outside feedback, that is definitely one of your less compelling moments. You're like McLuhan, though, I love you for where you're at. When you write the book, leave the Severus riff out, though.

[pepsified thinker]

Getting back to the original digression--which seems now to be the accpted topic--I heard a brief sound-bite about the shooter who took out 3 cops in Philly. A friend of his was explaining why he had rampaged, and said something about stories in the media and things the media ISN'T covering, and thee zionist media. Note: these are the what the 'friend' said about the shooter and I'm paraphrasing from memory, so don't go to much further with this info unless there's some way to independently verify it. But it caught my attention to hear that sort of statement on the national news, so I don't think I'm too far from what an accurate word-for-word version would say.

Of course, this could be one of those unnamed sources who just evaporates after spinning the story for public reaction--I'm thinking of the way the 'gang' element was introduced in coverage of the CIA contractor (nice way to distance him from the CIA, eh?) who was beaten to death. No specific person or source for that, but then neighbors weighed in with reaction statements--but did they react to a question that presumed a gang element?

ALSO--I saw a batch of photos from/by LIFE (is that still an active title?) posted in a slide-show format from the day that MLK was shot. The photographer(s) were quoted about each pic, including one that was supposedly from the bathroom window where the shooter stood.

seemed pretty 'spooky' to have all that imagery served up that way.

all in all, it's been a busy week in Lake Wobegone.

Doesn't it seem odd that just before the 4/4 anniversary of MLKing's 1968 murder by Memphis police + alphabeters...we get a spate of horrific multiple cop killings? Helluva meme-reversal. Hmm.

Oh, and Philadelphia is where a political prisoner was framed up for a cop killing, Mumia Abdul Jamal, a former Black Panther Minister of Information.

A friend of his was explaining why he had rampaged, and said something about stories in the media and things the media ISN'T covering, and thee zionist media.

"Zionist media?" yikes.
Just as more people are exposing CIA media and just when Dr. Steven Jones' et all new peer-reviewed science paper was just released 4/4/09 proving nanothermite in the World Trade Center dust.

One of the bogus memes deployed against those who Chip Berlet calls "conspiracists" is that they are just racist anti-semitic right-wingers who all think 'da Jews dunnit.'
This discrediting meme has been deployed in Congress by Jane Harman against Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth. CIA and the ADL work together on that meme.

Good analysis. Sounds like this sound-biter was a spook spinner maximizing the psyops potential, just like the FEMA shill in the Harley Davidson shirt who on 9/11 told the camera exactly why those buildings came down.

ALSO--I saw a batch of photos from/by LIFE (is that still an active title?) posted in a slide-show format from the day that MLK was shot. The photographer(s) were quoted about each pic, including one that was supposedly from the bathroom window where the shooter stood.

Time-Life is the CIA. They coughed up a distraction for USG Killed MLK Day, those other photos as a way to confuse people by getting them to re-notice the original well known photo of the balcony people all pointing to where they thought the shots came from. This is a confuser because their pointing was off, probably misdirected by someone firing blanks to cover for the sniper in the bushes next to the rooming house who was seen by witnesses.

One of those witnesses, a cab driver waiting at the Lorraine Motel, was interrogated by Memphis PD and killed the next day, thrown out of a car onto the highway, with his death certificate missing as though he'd never existed.

The bushes were all cut down early the next morning.

all in all, it's been a busy week in Lake Wobegone.

Spooks have their careers cut out for them, pun intended.

pepsified - I don't think anyone's said anything about the shootings in Pittsburgh in this thread. I wonder if somethings in the subject lines are tending to encourage minor confusion between the two threads?
