Ebola Cavaliers: Education Key To Walking the Ebola Tarmac In Shirtsleeves

The Only Thing We Have To Fear Is?

     Now that the national panic over an Ebola outbreak in the U.S. has passed the 21 day quaranteen without it following the scenario of the film Outbreak based on Richard Preston’s book The Hot Zone,  it is time to analyze the evolution of the panic.    According to Dr. I.N. Theski and Dr. Ima Wiel Suversav of the Center for the Analysis  of Bioterrorism Paradigms in Prague, Czechoslovakia, Ebola must be taken out of the realm of the spooky shadows and put under the healing rays of investigative sunlight.

     “It is true that Ebola shares some very common characteristics with the Marburg virus that first surfaced in a former I.G. Farben virus production lab in Germany following World War II.   We know that the best scientists from the Third Reich were transported to the U.S., but it would have been problematic to import a potential virus carrier….anthrax, typhus or what not….to the U.S..   Better that this devilish research stay in the host country, but when Ebola surfaced in Sudan and no carrier host was found and because it looked so much like Marburg….then spread to Zaire and then settled on the West Coast of Africa  in places with both significant natural resources and long standing ties to the United States like Liberia, then the simple eruption of a long dormant virus from the bogs and bungholes of Africa becomes quite problematic,” said Dr. Theski.

     “That’s right,” said Suversav.   “This alone was reason to analyze the evolution of the Ebola problem in the U.S. long before Mr. Duncan arrived in Dallas or Ms. Hickok became what Bill Maher has joking said is 'the kind of person you can only find in America.  A selfless humanitarian who also has narcissistic personality disorder.'   Well,” said Surversav,  “Mr. Maher is not off-base here.”

     “One cannot fathom the American bioterrorism paradigm without understanding the evolution of the modern weapons of war.   Not drones or cruise missiles, though they are clearly in the mix.  I mean bio-weapons.   Hells, bells even food got into the act when the UN oil-for-food-scandal showed us that there is no limit to the potential from war profiteering, but Ebola is not much different.   When the CDC and Emory doctors patented the Ebola virus at the U.S. Patent and European Patent Office the gig was pretty much up.   Own the virus and you own the vaccines or least you get a good percentage of the take.  It’s like inventing tank tracks or depleted uranium shells that fire this god-awful crap and then when companies come along to pick up the pollution you charge them, too, for the proprietary information on how to safely handle it,” said Surversav.

     “That Kaci Hickox studied at Johns Hopkins, the University of Texas and worked at the CDC brings the issue to the surface like a pimple ready to pop,” said Theski.

     “In the days and weeks after the Ebola scare we discovered that the leading CDC investigators who were at the 1979 outbreak in Zaire were at the University of Texas working in the Public Health Department in the new campus at Brownsville, Texas.  Now Admiral William McRaven is the Chancellor of the University of Texas, while the leading CDC/ARAMIDII U.S. Army Col. Clarence James Peters was investigating the Ebola outbreak in 1989, but he left the Army’s bioterrorism program in 2001 to head up the bioterrorism studies at the University of Texas.   His campus is also where a new Ebola vaccine was sidelined years ago and it is in Texas that the new tobacco-based medicines that are suppose to combat Ebola are being developed along with B.A.R.D.A.’s fast-tracking program on the Texas A&M campus at College Station, Texas with Dr. Robin Robinson taking the lead at B.A.R.D.A..    Arriving at the University of Texas Medical Branch in 2001, Dr. Peters was from Odessa, Texas, but spent time in Berkley and San Diego, California, Stone Mountain, Georgia, and Walkersville, Maryland and studied chemistry at Rice University where Dr. Kenneth Pitzer had been the key witness in the bamboozling of the nation with the destruction of the career of the father of the A-bomb, Robert Oppenheimer.    Oppenheimer was stripped of his national security clearance for refusing to make the bigger Hydrogen Bomb and that opened the door for the Dr. Stangelove of the nuclear arms race, Edward Teller, not to mention the use of depleted uranium in Linden and Neal Blue’s Predator and Reaper drones that have names as incentivizing of war as Vietnam era A-6 Intruders that protected the dropping of Agent Orange.  You can't say they named their tools of intervention cryptically....Predator, Reaper and Intruder cannot be mistake for Bambi, Thumper and Hostess.  Agent Orange was the defoliant that stripped the banana crops of Indo-China when the Blues were in partnership in Nicaragua with Anostosia Samoza in the competing Latin American banana business.  Paul Chapman tells that story in Bananas: How United Fruit Company Shaped the World.  Pitzer and William Liscum Borden were the key witnesses before the U.S. government's Gorden Gray Committee and Gordon Gray, father of Bush chief legal counsel, C. Boyden Gray, are both heirs of the R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Company that benefited not only from the sale of cigarettes, but will benefit from a tobacco based Ebola medicine the tobacco industry's ZMAPP that may well end up being like Tamiflu.  Now in 2003 Dr. Peters championed the U.S. Government’s BioShield Program along with Dr. Anthony Fauci of the National Institute of Health.   Bioshield, signed into place by GWB, stockpiled both Anthrax vaccines, 75 million doses, along with $5 billion dollars of Tamiflu which was reportedly no more efficacious than other flu remedies already available over the counter.  There's nothing like having a sovereign source of scared tax payers' dollars for things like massive dosage purchases or Wall Street bailouts, as bankers Hank Paulson or Ken Lewis can easily verify.  When biomedical companies were invited to join the B.A.R.D.A. fast tracking of new vaccines and medications many, perhaps most, balked for fear that they would lose control of their free-market profit streams and hands-off history of unnecessary governmental intervention in the profit aspect of medicine.  So far bio-med companies are not saying that they are being forced to comply as Ken Lewis was in taking Paulson's bailout money which Lewis said his Bank of America did not need.....and neither did the 95% of the solvent local U.S. banks in 2008.  This BioShield deal was well covered by William Branigin in “Bush Signs Legislation to Fight Bioterrorism: Project BioShield Enables Government to Stockpile Vaccines, Expedite Research”  in the  Washington Post (Wednesday, July 21, 2004) and by Michael Barbaro in "Bioshield Too Little For Drug Industry: Companies Want More Protection From Financial Loss," (Washington Post, Monday, July 26, 2004),” said Theski. 

     Theski noted that B.A.R.D.A. was made possible by Senate Bill 1873 sponsored by North Carolina Senator, Richard Burr, a self-proclaimed descendant of Aaron Burr and from a prominent tobacco producing state and by Senator William Frist who not only plugged the hole in the lung of U.S. Army General David Petraeus when he was accidentally shot at Fort Campbell, Kentucky, but is well remembered for his part in the Columbia/HCA healthcare company after a fraud case when Frist stepped back in to help the company when its CEO and President, Florida Governor Richard "Rick" Scott, was forced to resign following a federal Medicare fraud conviction and the payment of a $1.7 billion fine, the largest in U.S. history.

     Both Dr. Theski and Dr. Suversav have been troubled by the fact that both Hickox and Peters were at the CDC and Johns Hopkins University.   “Yes, well one cannot fully understand the role of Johns Hopkins in the history of American medicine and education without reading America’s Secret Establishment by Anthony Sutton,” said Suversav.   “The history of Johns Hopkins with the arrival of the educational theories of Wilhelm Wundt are spelled out by  Sutton to a tee on page 32:

...in the next volume, The Order Controls Education, we will describe how Daniel Coit Gilman, President of Johns Hopkins University, imported Wundt psychological methods from Germany, then welded education and psychology in the U.S., established laboratories, brought these educational laboratories into major Universities and generated hundreds of PhDs to teach the new educational conditioning system. One of the first of these Johns Hopkins doctorates was John Dewey. The result we well know. The educational morass of the ‘80s where most kids — not all — can’t spell, read or write, yet can be programmed into mass behavior channels.

The Order’s next move was to control the Foundations. They got all the big ones — Carnegie, Ford, Peabody, Slater, Russell Sage and so on. ... The initial objective was to establish a direction in an organization. Selection of managers, intuitive or amoral enough to catch on to the direction, kept the momentum going. In the case of Foundations, The Order has usually maintained a continuing presence over decades...

     This is, of course, what scientist Carl Sagan also warned against when he said….

I have a foreboding of an America in my children's or grandchildren's time -- when the United States is a service and information economy; when nearly all the manufacturing industries have slipped away to other countries; when awesome technological powers are in the hands of a very few, and no one representing the public interest can even grasp the issues; when the people have lost the ability to set their own agendas or knowledgeably question those in authority; when, clutching our crystals and nervously consulting our horoscopes, our critical faculties in decline, unable to distinguish between what feels good and what's true, we slide, almost without noticing, back into superstition and darkness...

     The dumbing down of America is most evident in the slow decay of substantive content in the enormously influential media, the 30 second sound bites (now down to 10 seconds or less), lowest common denominator programming, credulous presentations on pseudoscience and superstition, but especially a kind of celebration of ignorance …..

     Both Dr. Theski and Suversav agree that the Ebola scare has “manipulation written all over it.”   Theski was pointed in his criticism.   Anthony Sutton was no outsider.  He was a Stanford University professor and Hoover Institute member before he started to rattle the cages.   Sutton wrote of the secret establishment that has its hands in most major facits of American life from religion, education, history, medicine, media,  law, politics, economics, philanthropy, psychology, sociology and other areas including an overriding dialectic that pits left and right political ideologies against each other for profit.  "Yea, Sutton wrote: The Order had a key post in a Soviet bank! But we also find that Averell Harriman, his brother Roland Harriman, and... Knight Woolley [S&B], through the Union Bank (in which they held a major interest) were prime financial backers of Hitler," said Theski.

      Edwin Black’s War Against the Weak shows the connection of Mary Harriman as the backer of the New York Cold Springs Harbor Institute with its pseudo science of Eugenics that informed Hitler’s 'Final Solution,' rooted as it was in a rampant Anglophilia and Teutophila panic attack against all other cultures.   "Thank god these two squirrely ideologies did not unite when Rudolph Hess parachuted onto Lord Hamilton’s Estate during World War II with a proposal for Churchill.   Now the Ebola science that is evolving to control the …..well, whatever it is….and it is really hard to study when the threat of creating an 'outbreak' or 'hot zone' puts all the cards in the World Health Organization, NIH, CDC or U.S. military’s quiver of secretive science….it’s hard to study exactly what we are really dealing with here.   The school where Dr. Peters arrived serendipitously, or not,  in 2001….the year of 911…. for example, was a bastion of Anglophile sentiments with its founder, Dr. Ashbell Smith, saying famously….in a way that seems to invalidate the Hypocratic oath…..’the sword is the great civilizer.’    With U.S. National Guard troops entering the energy and diamond rich regions of Sierre Leone, Liberia and Nigeria as medical interventionists….well, Dr. Smith would be applauding, but it looks quite fishy from here, when the same energy and commitment that's given to war is not given to peace and healing,” said Dr. I.N. Theski.
