Emergency polio campaign to be launched in Iraq

(Yeah, it's an emergency for Bush to kill more Iraqis by giving them polio and it's an emegency for Bush to provide windfall profits for the phrama-terrorists.) --Plans are underway to launch a massive immunisation campaign in Iraq, expected to reach 4.7 million children aged under five. "For the past five years Iraq successfully controlled polio but due to the outbreaks in the neighbouring countries we have decided to vaccinate all children to prevent the re-emergence of the disease," Ahmed Abdul Khalak, a senior official in the ministry of health, told IRIN. (OMG, first we bomb the sh*t out of them, then we *vaccinate*them??? Polio was (almost) non-existent in Iraq and its 'neighbouring countries' before the illegal US invasion.)

1. Ha. Probably implanting chips.

That is, I might think so if I were a tad on the tinfoil side.

You're right, though, Lori. It's an extra bonus to Big Pharma. I wonder what those shots will cost Americans at home who cannot afford to have basic medical care for our kids. Or maybe they'll miss enough kids (what about the adults?) and an outbreak of polio will occur and our own troops will get it, or maybe they'll bring it back to America.

4. I think Bush gives away more to the pharma-terrorists than the...

oil industry and Halliburton...

2. Any chance it will find its way back to the U.S.?

I assume the soldiers are vaccinated, but what about all of the mercenaries and contractors? Thanks to the Iraq War, we have a lot of people in that country as potential disease recruiters.

begin. Police state/Weapon of Mass Distraction all rolled into one...
