Bush, Eli Lilly Corporation en AIDS
Freedom Files - 03.07.2003 21:40

Achtergronden achter de recente benoeming van voormalig Eli Lilly CEO Randall Tobias als hoofd van het nieuwe programma tegen AIDS in Afrika.

Eli Lilly is een niet onomstreden bedrijf dat nauwe banden heeft met de CIA en de Bush familie, en heeft flink bijgedragen aan de verkiezingscampagne van George Walker Bush.


Bush Selects Head of AIDS Program

The Associated Press
Wednesday, July 2, 2003; 10:48 AM
WASHINGTON - President Bush selected former Eli Lilly & Co. chief executive Randall Tobias as the coordinator for a new $15 billion program to slow the spread of AIDS and to treat it in Africa and the Caribbean.

Bush signed into law last month a measure to direct the money to 14 countries, most of them in Africa.

He was announcing his selection of Tobias in the Roosevelt Room on Wednesday morning.

Bush travels to five nations in Africa starting Monday.

Tobias retired from Lilly in 1998. He has been a major contributor to the Republican Party.


Information which turns up when searching information on "Eli Lilly" and "Randall Tobias" on the web :


GEORGE'S GENOCIDE
From:  trkeske@aol.com (TRKeske)
Subject: George's Genocide
Date: 1998/02/08

Last week, I decided to do some research on George Bush. Former President Bush had also been the CIA Director
in the critical period of time before the AIDS epidemic. He would be a character of particular interest, if any
schemes against gays and minorities had been in the works.

George was born in Milton, Massachusetts, which is a Boston suburb directly adjoining the town in which I
live. When I read his own version of his record, he sounded very upright and distinguished.

It reminded me of when I researched the Reverend Moon cult, with which Bush has associated. To read their own
web page, they sound very wholesome and idealistic.

When you start reading the other side of the story, it is an utter horror show, and it is far more convincing.
Moon thinks that he's a messiah superior to Jesus, and warns that many people will die if they oppose him,
as well as other undesirables, including gays.


One odd thing in Bush's biography, that struck me immediately, was his odd journey from the Farm to the Pharmacy.

The "Farm" being the CIA's training facility in Virginia. The "Pharmacy" being Eli Lilly, a major pharmaceutical company.

Bush was Director of the CIA in 1976-1977, and became a Director of Eli Lilly from 1977-1978. A peculiar mix, I thought. The man
was a veritable Renaissance Republican- such varied talents and interests. What was the connection, I wondered? So I decided to
do some research on Eli Lilly.

As it turned out, Eli Lilly had a long-standing connection to the CIA. It had been the CIA's primary supplier of LSD during the
infamous MK-Ultra mind control experiments.

Eli Lilly also has ties to the Religious Right. The Lilly family fortune is estimated at $1.3 billion by Forbes. I investigated
one of the groups to which Eli Lilly made generous donations, the Hudson Institute.

The Hudson Institute lists itself as a not-for-profit organization, and is tax exempt. It claims on its home page not to advocate
"ideology" or "political positions". They do use the so-subtle codewords of "an abiding respect for the importance of values,
culture and religion".

I clicked on their "other links" selection. What I found was a veritable Yellow Pages of the homophobic Far Right:
The Family Research Council (Gary Bauer), Focus on Family (Dobbs), "The Right Side of the Web", the Heritage Foundation,
the Cato Institute, the "Internet Conservative Resource Network".

My next discovery was that Eli Lilly had extensive connections with the Rebublican party. They were major backers of the
homophobic Senator Lugar. They were a backer of homophobic Senator Hatch. Both of these Senators took criticism for their
conflicts of interest, pushing legislation for the benefit of the pharmaceutical industry which was lavishing them with donations.

The Quayle family owns a large share of Lilly stock.

Eli Lilly is also on the cutting edge of technology. One of their major products is a recombinant-DNA human insulin. They
marketed their first recombinant-DNA product in 1982, just barely after the AIDS epidemic started. Obviously, they must have been
doing recombinant DNA research for years before the AIDS epidemic, and must have been near fruitful results at the time.
As discussed previously, recombinant DNA is considered the key technology that would have made engineering new viruses
possible.

Probably the most well-known of Lilly's current products is Prozac, which of course has a large number of detractors and
researchers who warn that it has dangerous side-effects and averse reactions in some people.

Lilly also marketed a number of drugs related to HIV treatment.

Eli Lilly also has one of the worst records in the industry for using human guinea pigs. Even the conservative Wall Street
Journal has reported on this. The FDA chastised Lilly in 1994 for using alcoholics. They also use large number of homeless.
They are well known in the soup kitchens and shelters of church-run inner-city missions of Indianapolis. The mission
directors would protest, but they receive funding from - you guessed it- the Lilly Foundation.

Lilly has also taken heat, along with other major pharmaceuticals, for price-fixing. Nice to know of the shameless gouging of
AIDS patients has gone to enrich the Bushes and Quayles.

During his administration, Bush heavily pushed AZT (not a Lilly product as far as I can see). AZT of course is widely
considered to have been of little value, and may have actually caused most of the health problems in people
who otherwise had few symptoms.

Bush took some heat for conflicts of interest, when he consistently applied political pressure on behalf of the
pharmaceutical industry. In response, he put his holdings in a blind-trust, so that a third party directed how his
money was invested, supposedly without his knowledge or participation. Of course, the cynic's view is that this
is merely a cute way of hiding your financial dealings and conflicts of interest.

The cynic's view is particularly justified in view of the fact that a family friend running George's "blind trusts"
was a former Nazi supporter. One of the skillfully suppressed truths about George's history is that his family wealth came
from his father's extensive financing of Hitler's rise to power.

During the war, some of the Bush family's Nazis banking interests were seized by the U.S. government.

George Bush also had ties to Tanox Biosystems, Inc, which he has helped to fund. A class action suit was filed against the company
by Gulf War veterans. The charge is that the company developed and tested contaminated vaccines on servicemen and women.

One such vaccine appears to have been tested in Hunstville Prison (Texas). Inmates, and later their guards and surrounding
communities, developed Gulf-War Syndrome-like ailments before the Gulf War.

But HELL, people. Just because you see a CIA Director who is also running a pharmaceutical company that has
ties to CIA scandals, ties to the Religious Far Right, an extensive record of using human guinea pigs, political
conflicts of interest, and charges of biowar experimentation-that's no reason be paranoid. Sweet dreams.
