The earthquake didn’t kill enough Haitians so let’s introduce cholera and see it that works better.

Years ago when I took my first ride as a student pilot we flew from Stuart, Florida to Indiantown, Florida.
Got out to discuss it all with my C.F.I. and went in to the decrepit trailer used as the office at Indiantown.
In it was a poster Titled the Ten biggest lies you’ll hear in Aviation.

Dr. Bill Wattenburg (KGO-AM 810 weekends, 10 pm > 1 am) had (as is his habit) the ridiculously simple answer both to this issue and how to feed literally millions of poor Haitians, and bureaucratic red tape stood in the way, resulting in tens of thousands of deaths. Bureaucracy stands in the way still, to this day, causing an entirely preventable and yet predictable cholera outbreak.

His idea is simply to drop individual plastic bottles of bottled water into lakes from low-flying helos. The bottles, each containing some air, will float and can be picked up. This solves the distribution and the hoarding problems all at once. The origin of his idea stems from efforts to feed the Kurds, who were being harassed and persecuted in Saddam Hussein’s Iraq post Desert Storm.

It was observed that when pallets of food aid were dropped via parachute, the Iraqi army soldiers would simply wait until the Kurdish refugees approached the intact pallets and machine-gun them. Dr. Bill experimented with food packets dropped from a small private plane piloted by a friend of his near Livermore, CA.

He found that stuff dropped from an airplane will simply reach its terminal velocity and scatter over a wide area. Hence, granola bars and the like need not be packaged into cartons and tightly wrapped up on pallets dropped via parachute. You just dump it out of the airplane as single-packaged items. Inevitably in such situations, stronger elements within the refugee population get to the pallets first and hog the food. Instead, by simply dumping the stuff out of the back of an airplane, it will scatter, providing many more folks the chance to get it.

During the Kurdish refugee situation he lobbied the US Army and the UN literally for months trying to get them to try his idea. The Army insisted that people would get hurt if the items dropped on them. Nobody would make the decision to change the way things were being done.

It’s exactly the same story in Haiti. Now with the outbreak of cholera, the water supply, such as it is, has become contaminated, which will take years to get out of the system. Another government success story.

Hewlett Packard Foundation, BIll and Melinda Gates, UN - UNESCO Ted Turner/Timothy Wirth, Ford, Rockefeller, Carnegie foundations. Carnegie funded the eugenic movement. They’ve given billions...they make me sick to my stomach. These stories need to get out into the mainstream.
