But rather than just laugh off the suggestion and ignore the possible connections, we sure as hell better be checking. After all, the actual holocaust started out as a secret conspiracy too, and our grandaddies swore they wouldn't EVER let it happen again.

I'm dismissing the grasping at straws trying to link one dead researcher to the intentional release of Ebola when of course researchers would be working with ebola.

It's like saying the elephants are planning to kill off humans and using as proof a keeper that got killed by one last month. SEE! IT's HAPPENING! lol.

Also, I've been through the "US GOVT made HIV to kill blacks" hoax of the 1980's. Now we know it predates the tech that would be needed to make something like that by maybe 100 years.

I mean, seriously....you have a bunch of people living in substandard conditions with clean water and adequate food unreliable and disease outbreaks have to be a conspiracy?

My relative that died in the civil war was in a unit of around 900 guys give or take. They lost about 80 guys to combat and about 200-250 to disease. Were they killed by a bio-engineered virus brewed up by the confederacy?

Did your ancestor's unit victims die from Yellow Fever?

Interesting link. You will note that most of the proposals were never used.

I have one person in my family tree who died in the Civil War, of measles.

Typhoid.

My point that unsanitary conditions, unclean water, food shortages all lead to disease outbreaks stands.

Even over 2000 years ago they would seige cities and catapult diseased animals and bodies over the walls and whatnot.

List of epidemics - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Epidemics have shown up since the dawn of man across cultures and around the globe.

The 1918 flu pandemic killed 75million people.

Basically, if you educate yourself and look around it's actually fairly normal and no boogieman needs to be created.

Lastly, ever notice how politicians and pundits use fear mongering and "outsiders" to control the people here in the US? Think that's unique to our country?

The process of safely canning food was developed after Napolean offered a cash reward for safely preserving food.

Wierd how just common sense and a knowledge of history explains how lots of people die when they have bad food, dirty water etc. I guess sitting here in the comforts of the US we don't quite grasp how others live. It's quite imaginative to have to result to conspiracy to explain something that has been occurring throughout the entire historical record.

I can at least understand how someone that is illiterate and living in the squalor of a Liberian slum picking trash for a living might be sucked into some fanciful explanation. Imagine standing around in trash and feces with bare feet and eating bush meat while living in a subtropical environment...the gutter in the street is used as the sewer....huh, how could any disease outbreaks possibly occur?
