| Quote |
In 2005, Barack Obama bought more than $50,000 worth of stock in a biotech concern that was starting to develop a drug to treat avian flu, whose major investors included some of his biggest political donors.
What are Obama’s investments in biotech companies apparently developing the “bird” and “swine” flu vaccine?

George W. Bush announced the International Partnership on Avian and Pandemic Influenza at the United Nations General Assembly on September 14, 2005, placing the US under UN and WHO law in the event of a pandemic “emergency”.
Earlier that year, in April, 2005, Barack Obama introduced the first comprehensive bill to deal with the bird flu threat, the Avian act. According to reports, Obama made significant investments in biotech companies involved in the development of bird and swine flu.

Obama’s ties to Baxter in addition to Chicago HQ
February 22, 2005
“Less than two months after ascending to the United States Senate, Barack Obama bought more than $50,000 worth of stock in two speculative companies whose major investors included some of his biggest political donors.
One of the companies was a biotech concern that was starting to develop a drug to treat avian flu. In March 2005, two weeks after buying about $5,000 of its shares, Mr. Obama took the lead in a legislative push for more federal spending to battle the disease.”
“But he put $50,000 to $100,000 into an account at UBS, which his aides say was recommended to him by a wealthy friend, George W. Haywood, who was also a major investor in both Skyterra and AVI BioPharma, public securities filings show.”
“Within two weeks of his purchase of the biotech stock that Feb. 22, Mr. Obama initiated what he has called “one of my top priorities since arriving in the Senate,” a push to increase federal financing to fight avian flu.”
“His first step came on March 4, 2005, when the Senate Foreign Relations Committee approved his request for $25 million to help contain the disease in Asia; the full Senate later approved that measure. And in April 2005, he introduced a bill calling for more research on avian flu drugs and urging the government to increase its stockpiles of antiviral medicines.
Mr. Obama repeated this call in a letter that Aug. 9 to Michael O. Levitt, the health and human services secretary. And in September 2005, Mr. Obama and Senator Tom Harkin, Democrat of Iowa, succeeded in amending another bill to provide $3.8 billion for battling the flu.
Meanwhile, the drug company in which he invested, AVI BioPharma, had been working to develop its own medicine to treat avian flu victims. In a conference call with Wall Street analysts on March 8, 2005, the company’s chairman, Denis R. Burger, said the firm was “aggressively going forward” with its avian flu research and hoped to work with federal agencies on it.”

“Grounding a Pandemic
By BARACK OBAMA and RICHARD LUGAR”
“It is essential for the international community, led by the United States, to take decisive action to prevent a pandemic.”
“So what should we do? Recently, the World Health Organization called for more money and attention to be devoted to effective preventive action, appealing for $100 million.”
“Accelerating research into avian flu vaccines and antiviral drugs.”
“Barack Obama, Democrat of Illinois, is a member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee and Richard Lugar, Republican of Indiana, is its chairman.”

"Isn't is interesting that over $60 million dollars (potentially $8 billion!) has been "awarded" for a vaccine against a bird flu that hasn't even mutated yet? How are these people so certain that it will mutate and kill millions of people? How do we know these vaccines will work when it hasn't even mutated? Note also that the pharmaceutical industry, which manufactures vaccines, has the largest lobby in all Washington and is raking in huge profits."

Start with their children.
This thing hasn't mutated. They are testing a drug that they're not sure of....and if you die, well they passed a bill preventing civil suits, against pharmaceutical companies and vaccine manufactures from being held accountable.
This is nothing more than a power grab. I believe the thing that was released probably in Mexico, has not moved as quickly as they'd hope. The internet is rife with propaganda about this flu being a killer. Still more people have died from regular flu, than this thing.
This nasty business was hatched under Bush and carried through under Obama. They are one in the same people.
Ever notice how a politician shows up in Washington as a new Senator or Congressman and a few years later they are rolling in cash?

Before they are elected they have a comprehensive plan in place that will enable them to pass whatever bills necessary to push large amounts of cash and power to their corporate gang. It is a gang, not a political organizaation, and it doesn't make a damn if it's Republican or Democrat. They think, operate, and plan like a gang. |

And I'll add, this ISN'T about vaccines. It's just ONE example of how their personal investments are so openly connected to their legislation that it becomes insulting |

All you say is true. Of course they don't care if we die. TPTB all practice eugenics. They want to cull 5 and a half billion people and this "vaccine" poison may be just the thing they use to start the ball rolling. Just google the Georgia Guidestones. It is the globalists ten commandments. |
