WARNING: This is Version 1 of my old archive, so Photos will NOT work and many links will NOT work. But you can find articles by searching on the Titles. There is a lot of information in this archive. Use the SEARCH BAR at the top right. Prior to December 2012; I was a pro-Christian type of Conservative. I was unaware of the mass of Jewish lies in history, especially the lies regarding WW2 and Hitler. So in here you will find pro-Jewish and pro-Israel material. I was definitely WRONG about the Boeremag and Janusz Walus. They were for real.

S.Africa: Govt denies shutting up Minister of Health re: AIDS
|
[The Business Day is a very respectable publication. I don’t believe the Govt’s denials. The Minister of Health is extremely unpopular, and the Govt is taking lots of hits from the local media and various organisations for its controversial stance on AIDS. The Minister of Health has become a mockery when she tries to defend Mbeki’s concept of AIDS. e.g. AIDS does not exist; have a healthier diet; eat garlic; etc. People are laughing it off, because virtually everyone knows that AIDS is sexually transmitted. So now they are in damage control mode. Jan] Cape Town – Government denies it has “ringfenced” Health Minister Manto Tshabalala-Msimang in an effort to limit her controversial pronouncements on HIV and Aids, and on treatment for victims of the disease. Responding to a question during a post cabinet-meeting media briefing at parliament, government communications (GCIS) head Joel Netshitenzhe said a report in Business Day on Thursday morning to this effect was “unethical”. Asked at the briefing, “Can you comment on reports that the minister of health has been ‘ringfenced’ from the media?”, Netshitenzhe replied: “There is no such thing.” According to the newspaper, government has “thrown a ring” around Tshabalala-Msimang to improve the state’s controversial management of its Aids message. The “ring” is in the form of an inter-departmental communications committee, briefed to manage government’s handling of the Aids campaign. ‘Darling’ of cartoonists The report quotes an unnamed source as saying: “The committee is an attempt to rein Manto in.” Tshabalala-Msimang has recently become the darling of local cartoonists with her controversial pronouncements on, among other things, the efficacy of foodstuffs such as garlic, African potatoes, beetroot and olive oil in the management of Aids. Netshitenzhe told journalists the inter-departmental team on HIV and Aids referred to in the Business Day story “has existed for more than three, four years”. “In part, as we know, because these issues impact on various government departments. So I don’t know where the story comes from. “Unfortunately there is sometimes, I think, an unethical reliance on hidden sources. And when they contact the department to clarify the issues, people still insist on writing stories on the basis of what they got from their sources. “I think that’s the unfortunate thing sometimes in our journalism,” he said.
