Do you recall several months ago, when we were doing the research on Plum Island, I found a report that the currents in the ocean, would bring 'things' to the coasts of America?

One of the Cuban reports was about jars/bottles, filled with bio - germs, put into the current and it was planned that the Americans would find them on the beach and open them.

I assume there was a note in the bottle, as we have heard about notes in bottles, for all my lifetime.

Forgive me if I am repeating info, that you have already talked about, I am into a search, that has taken days and
goes on and on and am behind on reading Threat Matrix.

I had a vision a few months after 911 of OBL on a mountain top with his hands cupped. He did this little circle thing, like a spin kinda, and then put his arms out a released a butterfly.

Not much reason to try to rule the world if
you are dead due to your own virus.

The first thoughts that came to mind on reading this:

Die from a virus or strap on a suicide belt?

Dead is dead.

Vaccination, could offer some protection to the person releasing the germs.

Muslims terrorist aren't scaring me anymore. China, Russia, Cuba, Iran, India etc. ARE.

Die from a virus or strap on a suicide belt?

Poor souls they are looking for 72 virgins.

BURMESE REGIME CARRYING OUT GENOCIDE CLAIMS NEW REPORT

By Dan Wooding
Founder of ASSIST Ministries

LONDON, UK  (ANS) -- A joint delegation from Christian Solidarity Worldwide (CSW) and the Humanitarian Aid Relief Trust (HART) has returned from a visit to ethnic groups on the Thai-Burmese border with evidence of a campaign of genocide perpetrated by the ruling State Peace and Development Council (SPDC).

The report includes first-hand testimonies of forced labour from new Karen and Karenni refugees, as well as details of the situation facing IDPs. It concludes with a brief analysis of the case for genocide and crimes against humanity, and also covers the plight of the Shan.

A spokesperson for CSW said, “Hundreds of thousands of Karen, Karenni and Shan continue to face a humanitarian crisis in eastern Burma. Internally Displaced People in the jungles are denied access to adequate medical care, food and shelter, they face the threat of forced labour, forced relocation, widespread rape, torture and the destruction of villages, crops, rice barns and livestock.”

The delegation, which included members of CSW UK, Australia and New Zealand, visited Karen Internally Displaced People (IDPs) in two sites inside Burma, as well as Karen and Karenni refugees in Thailand. IDPs in one village only had enough food for a few more days, and were facing an uncertain future.

"We want to see the heart of the Burmese government change so we can live in peace," the camp leader told the team. "We hope to return to our villages but we don't know when. While we are together in this camp, we really need provision, especially food and medicine."

Reports continue to emerge of fresh assaults on Karen and Karenni villages by the Burma Army. An estimated 4,781 Karen people have been displaced in recent weeks in the Shwygn/Hsaw Htee area of Naunglybin District, Karen State, and are hiding in the jungle, unable to move during the day.

“There are an estimated one million people internally displaced in Burma,” added the CSW spokesperson. “The Thailand-based Burma Border Consortium estimates at least 526,000 people have been displaced in Karen, Karenni and Shan areas, with 157,000 of these displaced in the past two years. Since 2002, at least 240 villages have been completely destroyed, relocated or abandoned, and a total of 2,500 villages in eastern Burma have been destroyed since 1996.”

The delegation, which included Baroness Cox, Chief Executive of HART and Honorary President of CSW-UK, met leaders of the Shan, Karen and Karenni resistance forces. The Shan people face a particularly severe crisis, with 300,000 internally displaced and at least 200,000 living illegally in Thailand. Unlike the Karen and Karenni, the Shan have been denied refugee camps in Thailand. Instead, those who flee persecution find sanctuary either illegally in Thailand, or in IDP camps in Shan state, Burma.

"We are in need of material and moral help. We need to make our plight known to the rest of the world," one Shan leader said. "The situation in Shan state is no different from Iraq with regards to the number of casualties, but the difference is that there are no reporters or observers in Shan State. Battles erupt on a daily basis."

Baroness Cox, who has visited the region many times, called on the international community to investigate claims of genocide and crimes against humanity, and to increase pressure on Burma's ruling junta.

She said: "Every time we visit the Karen, Karenni and Shan, we find mounting evidence of gross violations of human rights which we believe may amount to genocide, crimes against humanity and violations of the Geneva Conventions. We urge the British Government, the European Union and the United Nations to recognize the severity of the situation and take appropriate action. We also appeal to the Association of South-East Asian Nations [ASEAN] to suspend Burma's membership of the organization until significant progress is made towards a transition to a federal democracy and an improvement in human rights. We call for free and open access to all areas of Burma for international humanitarian aid groups and human rights monitors."

NOTES TO EDITORS:

Burma has been ruled by successive military regimes since Ne Win seized power in a coup in 1962. The current ruling junta, the State Peace & Development Council (SPDC), held elections in 1990 which were overwhelmingly won by the National League for Democracy (NLD), led by Nobel Laureate Daw Aung San Suu Kyi, who remains under house arrest.

CSW is an international human rights advocacy organization which has worked with the ethnic groups such as the Karen, Karenni, Shan, Chin and Kachin on Burma's borders for over a decade. For further information, see www.csw.org.uk 

The Humanitarian Aid Relief Trust (HART) was established by Baroness Cox in 2003 to focus on providing humanitarian aid to people who are suffering oppression and persecution, and who are neglected by other major aid organizations. For further information, see www.hart-uk.org

ARTICLE SNIPPET: "PARIS, Dec 19 (AFP) - French Health Minister Philippe Douste-Blazy on Sunday announced stepped-up security procedures in hospitals, as police continued to hunt for the killer of two nurses who were murdered in a horrific fashion two nights earlier.


Chantal Klimaszewski, 48, and Lucette Gariod, 40, were discovered in a blood-spattered room Saturday morning at a psychiatric hospital in Pau, southwest France. The head of one had been cut off and placed on a television set and the other's throat had been slit."
