December 16, 2002 - In 1998, a US Federal Court
decided
that the Environmental Protection Agency used fraud in its classification
of passive smoke as “Class A” carcinogen, exposing for all time the
action of criminals who manipulated the evidence, and continue
to do so now. The EPA, of course, appealed. Virtually every legal expert in
the United States considered the Court’s decision “air tight”. The weight of
Judge Osteen’s arguments was so overwhelming that the decision could not be
reversed. American justice aspires to be speedy, but not this time.
The appeal was stalled for four years to allow the antismoking
industry to advance the pharmaceutical prohibition agenda by spreading the
passive smoke fraud, consolidating popular superstition. In the
meantime, to ensure stability and “just in case”, the
pharmaceutically-driven International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC)
of Lyons, France, picked up the EPA’s statistical fraud, and a few months
ago declared that passive smoke was a carcinogen, moving the EPA’s
methodological fraud to safer, international waters. With its decision of
last week, he 4th
Court of Appeal has demonstrated that such precaution was not
necessary.
How? By
turning Osteen’s decision upside down? Perhaps by demonstrating that there
is a new scientific foundation for the “dangers” of passive smoke? By
correcting a bad judgment? Hardly. Judge Osteen had demonstrated the
passive smoke fraud so completely that a scientific reversal was
impossible. Simply, the 4th
Court used a technicality: the EPA does not make legislation, it is just
“consulting” – thus the case has been cancelled. No
matter that the entire world’s prohibition is based on the EPA’s
fraud, let us just pretend that the EPA does not initiate regulatory
control in the US! Technically, Osteen’s decision never existed.
When the truth is too blatant, and you cannot diffuse it, simply eliminate
it and don’t deal with it.
If
there were still a need for a demonstration of how much the prohibition agenda
transcends scientific truth, justice, honesty (and even the judicial
system), then we have it now. If we still needed to understand how deeply
pharmaceutical corruption has penetrated the fabric of the state, then we
understand it now. The decision of the Federal Court has not been
over
turned (and thus it stands up as testimonial); it has been
annihilated to prevent any potential legal
consequence. The fraud of the century MUST
go on -- too much money depends on it.
The
4th Circuit Court of Appeal lets the cat out of the bag in its precedence-setting
decision that gives carte blanche to all government agencies to crank
out studies and reports with no accountability. Its decision
vaporizing Judge Osteen lists the EPA's contention that he "improperly
exceeded the scope of judicial review of agency action by engaging in an
intrusive review of the scientific and methodological judgments underlying
EPA's conclusions in the Report." The 4th Circuit
agrees. Henceforth governmental studies need no longer concern
themselves with scientific rigor nor must they be bound by universally
agreed upon methodologies. They can say the sun rises in the west
and no one may disagree.
In
reality neither passive smoke has been
demonstrated dangerous nor the EPA honest. Not much would have changed had
the 4th Court upheld Judge Osteen’s decision anyway – as history has
demonstrated in these last four years. Red in their faces, and with the ink
still fresh on the papers, the antismoking Nazis stated, of Judge Osteen's
decision in 1998: “That
[decision]
will change nothing” -- and it didn't, for the mobs knew that their
masters had already bought enough of the system and state, and that there
was no reason to fear even the verdict of the US Federal District Court. Similar thing happened with the pharmaceutically-sponsored WHO-IARC.
In 1998, the largest study
on passive smoke ever, demonstrated no danger whatsoever for non
smokers. But the WHO denied its own evidence, buried the
study, inferred that the IARC scientists were bought out by Big
Tobacco (without ever proving it, of course) and, a few years later,
produced the junk
science meta-analysis (not even a new study – that would have taken too
much time) mentioned above.
Let us
face it, guys and gals: honesty, science, truth and justice do not mean
anything anymore in real life. Thus, when they cannot be ignored, denied,
or deflected, they are simply cancelled with force. Passive smoke
and its
non-existant dangers is, in fact, the indispensable tool to forbid
smoking, which the tobacco control industry claims to cause millions of deaths in the world each year.
In that
way one’s right to hurt himself is circumvented – by making the world
believe that in so doing one hurts others, and by attributing all
social costs to the targets, in order to instigate against those who
“hurt” themselves.
What can
one say now? Not one death can be
scientifically proven for active smoke? Come on, people, that
is only a small detail, totally irrelevant to the agenda of the
pharmaceutical colossuses who pull the strings of the ministries of health
and pay
antitobacco “grass root activists”! Everyone knows that smoking kills – why should we
worry about such stupid, hair-splitting details? Just as everyone in
the middle Ages knew that the devil possessed people necessitating
in throwing the demons into the water
with a mill stone around their necks. Sink and drown and innocence
is proclaimed. Stay afloat and possession by Satan is proved.
Time for the pyre.
Forgive the cynicism, but nothing has really changed,
and statistical computers do not turn monkeys into higher beings. Then as
now, science and justice were instruments of fanaticism, temporal
power, political interests -- and of the darkest superstition. For the ministries of Finances, who raise the cigarettes’ cost by taxing
the New Jews (for their own good) such arguments are totally irrelevant –
just a waste of breath.
When in
power, it has always been easy to oppress, cheat and steal. But today it
has even become ennobling: all one has to say is that he does it for
public health.
