As Ebola continues to dominate the news cycle, tvxs.gr's Aggeliki Dimopoulou speaks with professor Francis A. Boyle about Ebola. Excerpt.
Is Ebola just a result of health crisis in Africa - because of
the large gaps in personnel, equipement and medicines - as some experts
suggest?
That isn’t true at all. This is just propaganda being put out by
everyone. It seems to me, that what we are dealing with here is a
biological warfare work that was conducted at the bio-warfare
laboratories set up by the USA on the west coast of Africa. And if you
look at a map produced by the Center of Disease Control you can see
where these laboratories are located. And they are across the heart of
Ebola epidemic, at the west coast of Africa. So, I think these
laboratories, one or more of them, are the origins of the Ebola
epidemic.
US government agencies are supposed to do defensive biological
warfare research in these labs. Is there any information about what are
they working on?
Well, that’s what they tell you. But if you study what the CDC and the
Pentagon do… They say it is defensive, but this is just for public
relation purposes than anything. It’s a trick. What it means is what
they decide at these bio-warfare labs. They say, “well we have to
develop a vaccine”, so that’s their defensive argument. Then what they
do is to develop the bio-warfare agent itself. Usually by means of DNA
genetic engineering. And then they say, “well to get the vaccine we have
to develop the bio-warfare agent” - usually by DNA genetic engineering -
and then they try to work on the vaccine. So it’s two uses type of
work. I haven’t read all these bio-warfare contracts but that’s typical
of the way the Pentagon CDC has been doing this since at least the
1980’s. I have absolute proof from a Pentagon document that the Center
of Disease Control was doing bio-warfare work for the Pentagon in Sierra
Leone, the heart of the outbreak, as early as 1988. And indeed it was
probably before then because they would have had to construct the lab
and that would have taken some time. So we know that Fort Detrick and
the Center for Disease Control are over there, Tulane University, which
is a well-known bio-warfare center here in USA - I would say notorious
for it - is there. They all have been over there.
In addition, USA government made sure that Liberia, a former colony of
the USA, never became a party to the Biological Weapons Convention, so
they were able to do bio – warfare work over there - going back to
1980’s - the USA government, in order to circumvent the Biological
Weapons Convention. Likewise, Guinea the third state affected here - and
there is an increase now – didn’t even sign the Biological Weapons
Convention. So, it seems to me, that the different agencies of the US
government have been always there try to circumvent the Biological
Weapons Convention and engage bio-warfare work. Indeed, we had one of
these two lab bio-warriors admit in the NY Times that they were not over
there for the purpose of either screening or treating people. That’s
not what these labs are about. These labs are there in my opinion to do
bio-warfare work for different agencies of the US government. Indeed,
many of them were set up by USAID. And everyone knows that USAID is
penetrated all up and down by the CIA and CIA has been involved in
bio-warfare work as well.
