The following paper, entitled "IS AIDS BIOLOGICAL WARFARE" was sent to
me by Dr. Strecker who has no access to computer networks for the
explicit purpose of universal publication without charge or consider-
ation for the purpose of education only. Further information is avail-
able as noted below. The remainder of this file is by Dr. Strecker
(John Winters [e-mail])

                     IS AIDS BIOLOGICAL WARFARE?
                       THE STRECKER MEMORANDUM

 Thank you for requesting this information. We have a story to tell
you, a very strange story, one that affects you, me, and every other
human being on earth. A story that must be taken seriously by the
governments of every nation in the world because there may not be many
humans left to govern by the turn of the century, or shortly there-
after. A story so bizarre, and so sinister that, if it were not for
the fact that it is all true, it would make a great science fiction
thriller. (Interestingly enough, Lorimar Pictures of Hollywood has
purchased the rights to Dr. Strecker's life story.)


The story begins in 1983 with Dr. Robert B. Strecker, M.D., Ph.D. Dr.
Strecker practices internal medicine and gastroenterology in Los
Angeles. He is a trained pathologist and also holds a Ph.D. in
pharmacology. Dr. Strecker and his brother, Ted, an attorney, were
preparing a proposal for a health maintenance organization (HMO) for
Security Pacific Bank of California. They needed to know the long-term
financial effects of insuring and treating AIDS patients. In as much
as this information was not readily available in 1983, both brothers
began researching the medical literature to learn what they could
about this relatively new disease. The information they uncovered
right from the beginning was so startling to them, so hard to believe,
that it would dramatically alter both their lives and lead them on a
five year quest culminating with the creation of "The Strecker
Memorandum," the most controversial video tape of our time, and a
remarkable set of documents called "The Bioattack Alert."

                         WHAT THEY DISCOVERED

Right there in the medical literature for anyone to read for
themselves was, basically, proof that the AIDS virus and pandemic was
actually PREDICTED years ago by a world famous virologist, among
others. They found that top scientists writing in the Bulletin of the
World Health Organization were actually REQUESTING that AIDS like
viruses be created to study the effects on humans. In fact, the
Streckers unearthed thousands of documents all supporting the manmade
origin of AIDS. Meanwhile, the government was telling everyone that a
green monkey in Africa bit some native and started AIDS. As their
research continued, it became obvious from the documentation that the
virus itself was not only created as requested, but actually DEPLOYED,
and now threatens the existence of mankind because it does what it was
designed to do: cause cancer in humans via a contagious virus.
Eventually the Streckers came to realize everything the government,
the so-called AIDS experts and media were telling the public was not
only misleading, but out and out lies. The truth of the matter is:

 AIDS is a manmade disease;
 AIDS is not a homosexual disease;
 AIDS is not a venereal disease;
 AIDS can be carried by mosquitos;
 Condoms will not prevent AIDS;
 There are a least six different AIDS viruses
 loose in the world;
 There will never be a vaccine cure;
 And on and on, but...

                          THE SCARIEST PART

The most dreaded fear that all oncologists (cancer doctors),
virologists, and immunologists live with is that some day CANCER, in
one form or another, will become a contagious disease, transferable
from one person to another. AIDS has now made fear a reality. If you
think you are safe because you are not gay or promiscuous, or because
you are not sexually active, then you must watch "The Strecker
Memorandum" very carefully.

       IF YOU PLAN TO HAVE SEX TONIGHT YOU HAD BETTER READ THIS

The most common misconception being foisted upon us right now concerns
sexually active Americans. We are told that if a man uses a condom the
transference of the deadly virus is virtually eliminated. Nothing
could be further from the truth. Of the body fluids that the AIDS
virus is found in, semen is the least. As a matter of fact, in every
single study ever published on the subject, no one has found a
significant amount in anyone's semen. It just isn't there in huge
numbers. There is usually only about one virus per milliliter, a
statistically irrelevant amount. One copious ejaculation might produce
only one or two viruses. This is substantiated in the medical
literature. But, just for argument's sake, let's say all the medical
studies are wrong. Let's pretend that there are countless millions of
AIDS viruses in the ejaculation. Are you aware that condoms are
riddled with microscopic or larger holes? Studies show that even the
smallest holes found in condoms are two to ten times larger than the
AIDS virus. It's like shooting a golf ball through a basketball hoop.
Condoms have not, will not, and cannot prevent AIDS.

                        THOUSANDS ALREADY DEAD

Fifty thousand Americans have already died because they didn't know
the truth about AIDS. Between twelve and fifteen million Americans
have already been infected. One in 60 babies born in New York City is
infected; one in 300 college students in America is infected; one in
20 aliens applying for amnesty is infected, including men, women and
children. These are just some of the facts you are not likely to hear
about from the media.

                          WHY A VIDEO TAPE?

One of the first things the Streckers did was to try and tell their
medical and legal colleagues what they were finding in the literature.
Some were interested; most were not. Certainly no one was prepared to
risk their professional standing by making waves within the
establishment. Ted Strecker compiled some of the most damaging
documents into a report he called "The Bioalert Attack" and sent it to
every Governor of every state, the President, the VICE-PRESIDENT (now
President), the FBI, the CIA, the NSA, and selected members of
Congress. He got a grand total of three replies from three governors;
nothing from the government. Both he and Dr. Strecker were laughed at
and ridiculed at every turn. As an example, Dr. Strecker told the
government in 1985 that virtually every person testing positive for
AIDS would die prematurely and painfully. The government said that was
nonsense. Their figures showed that maybe ten percent at most would
die from the disease. In 1986, the government said maybe 50 percent of
those infected would die, in 1987 they said maybe 75 percent, in 1988
they finally agreed with Dr. Strecker that AIDS is virtually 100
percent fatal. We could go on with facts Dr. Strecker unearthed that
the "experts" said were wrong and now accepted as the truth. Dr.
Strecker, like a good scientist, submitted paper after paper with his
findings to all the prestigious medical journals in America. They were
refused. He then tried having his findings published in Europe. Again,
closed doors. What to do? Dr. Strecker did not feel he could take the
time from his practice and his research to write a book. On the other
hand, everyone has a TV and now most households have a video cassette
recorder (VCR). The time involved to make a video is nothing compared
to writing a book, and so the video "The Strecker Memorandum" was
created. It is 96 minutes of the most startling, controversial, and
information packed video you will ever see. It disputes virtually
everything the American public is being told by the government, the
so-called AIDS experts and the media. In fact, after seeing it YOU
will know more about AIDS than 99 percent of all doctors in America.

               MUSIC IS NOTHING IF THE AUDIENCE IS DEAF

With the video made, it seemed a simple matter to advertise it and the
world would now become aware of what it was facing, right? WRONG! The
fact that you are even reading about "The Strecker Memorandum" now is
a minor miracle by itself, in as much as TV stations have refused to
advertise it. TV and radio time brokers that sell blocks of commercial
time have refused to sell us time. TV station managers have refused to
even air programs containing interviews with Dr. Strecker. A national
radio network did an interview with a famous talk show host and Dr.
Strecker and then refused to run it. Virtually every big name network
television magazine show and all the syndicated TV interviewers and
talk show hosts have said NO to Dr. Strecker. Big city newspapers will
not take any print ads telling about it, and so it goes...WHY? What is
in "The Strecker Memorandum" that sends a cold chill down the spine of
most media executives?

         WHY IS EVERYONE AFRAID OF "THE STRECKER MEMORANDUM"?


 The excuse that we hear over and over is that it is too
controversial. TOO CONTROVERSIAL? They say that this information, if
widely disseminated, will cause the public to panic. If someone had
poisoned your water supply and you and your family could die, wouldn't
you want to know about it? Would you panic? Or would you more likely
be outraged and try to find out who did it and punish them? We feel
the only persons who might panic are those scientists who willingly or
otherwise created AIDS and are now promoting misinformation by
covering it up. After all, if you made AIDS would you tell anyone
about it?

      THINK OF YOUR FAMILY AND FRIENDS...NOW THINK OF THEM DEAD

The number of AIDS infected people is doubling approximately every 12
months, and in some areas even sooner. With twelve to fifteen million
Americans carrying the virus, you don't have to be a rocket scientist
to see how long we have here in the U.S. Africa has, conservatively,
75 million infected; some estimates double that. Brazil as a country
is in serious jeopardy because all through the 1970's they were buying
their blood supply from Africa. On top of that, the World Health
Organization conducted a large scale small pox vaccination program
there in the 1970's (for the full implications of that see "The
Strecker Memorandum"). Southern Japan has about 30 percent infected
with HTLV I, the leukemia causing virus (although you will never hear
about that on TV). Russia is now reporting AIDS as a problem and no
one can enter Russia permanently without a current negative blood test
for AIDS. Cuba has already set up concentration camps for AIDS
infected and they are full (you won't see that on TV either). Haiti of
course is ravaged by AIDS; more than 15 percent of the people infected
and getting worse every day. And so it goes. Virtually every nation on
earth with few exceptions (Iran is one) is reporting a growing
problem. It's on every continent, every subcontinent, and every island
chain, Atlantic and Pacific. So why won't the media or government tell
you these things? Is it too controversial for you to handle? Are you
going to panic?

                          IS THERE ANY HOPE?

Yes and no. NO, if you are waiting for the government to create a
magic bullet. As you will see in "The Strecker Memorandum," part of
the problem is that all the various AIDS viruses are "recombinant
retroviruses." Very simply, that means they have the ability to
recombine with the genes of any cell they enter and the offspring or
new viruses they form are different from the parent viruses. HTLV III
alone (that's the most common American AIDS virus) has the
mathematical ability to change itself 9,000x9,000x9,000x9000 times
(which is 9,000 to the fourth power). The common cold recombines much
less frequently and we haven't found a cure for it after a hundred
years. Besides, does it make much sense to entrust the cure for AIDS
to the same people that may have created it? YES, there is hope if Dr.
Strecker and a growing number of realistic scientists are correct in
looking at alternative, nonallopathic, non drug modalities based on
Raman spectroscopy. In fact many experiments are going on now that
offer great promise. Unfortunately, our government takes a dim view of
any type of treatment for any type of disease let alone AIDS that does
not conform to its rigid rules for acceptance, registration, and
legalization. Of course the FDA would definitely like to see an
allopathic drug treatment or cure presented by an ethical drug company
or university. Well, we don't think that's going to happen. Because of
this attitude, much experimentation in America must go underground,
underfunded, or out of the country entirely. Again, this is explained
further in "The Strecker Memorandum."

          BE BOLD AND MIGHTY FORCES WILL COME TO YOUR AID OR
                 MIGHTY FORCES WILL COME AND KILL YOU

An ominous personal aspect of this story has been the sudden and
unexpected deaths of two of the key players. First, Dr.Strecker's
brother, Ted Strecker, was found shot to death in his home in
Springfield, Missouri, an apparent suicide, on August 11,1988. Was Ted
Strecker suicidal? Perhaps. In the past he suffered from depression
and monumental frustration at the relative lack of interest in his
findings. Dr. Strecker spoke with him the night before his death. Ted
was cheerful, in good spirits, and looking forward to certain new
developments that promised progress. The next day he was found dead,
his 22 caliber rifle next to him. No note, no message, no goodbyes to
anyone. Very untypical of him. Officially a suicide. Next. Illinois
State Representative Douglas Huff of Chicago was found alone in his
home, dead from an apparent overdose of cocaine and heroin, on
September 22, 1988. Representative Huff did everything in his power to
make the Illinois State Legislature and the people of Chicago aware of
Dr. Strecker's work. He was very vocal, gave many press interviews,
was constantly on television and radio urging people to wake up to the
cover-up concerning AIDS. Did Representative Huff use drugs? Perhaps
yes, but only occasionally and recreationally. Was he an addict? No.
Would he have known how dangerous a massive overdose off cocaine and
heroin was? Yes, of course. Cause of death: officially a stroke. Dr.
Strecker has serious doubts that his brother killed himself.
Representative Huff's associates doubt he died accidentally, and yet
they are gone. Who's next?

                IGNORANCE IS BLISS, OR IS IT SUICIDE?

We all know it is easier for a king to have a lie believed than a
beggar to spread the truth. Well, we are spreading the truth about
AIDS. Unfortunately, it isn't pretty. But the fact is you are not
being told the truth by the government or the so-called AIDS experts.
The media, for reasons of their own, will not present information
contradicting the official propaganda. So you can choose to go along
with the same people who gave us brain cancer (SV40 virus) as a result
of their contaminated polio vaccines in the early 1960's; a polio like
disease from their contaminated Swine Flu vaccine in the 1970's; and
AIDS from their smallpox and hepatitis B vaccines; or, you can at
least make yourself aware of the clear and present dangers that we all
face by watching "The Strecker Memorandum." The cost of the tape is
nominal, but we submit that remaining ignorant can cost infinitely
more.

Thank you,
