reports that Dr. Ali-Mohammadi told his students to speak out against
the unjust elections. He stated “We have to stand up to this lot. Don’t
be afraid of a bullet. It only hurts at the beginning.” Iran seems to be
systematically assassinating high level professors and doctors who
speak out against the regime of President Ahmadinejad. However, Iran
proclaims that Israel and America used the “killing as a means of
thwarting the country’s nuclear program” per Newsweek.

Austrian born Thomas Gold famous over the years for a variety of bold
theories that flout conventional wisdom and reported in his 1998 book,
“The Deep Hot Biosphere,” the idea challenges the accepted wisdom of how
oil and natural gas are formed and, along the way, proposes a new
theory of the beginnings of life on Earth and potentially on other
planets. Long term battle with heart failure. Gold’s theory of the deep
hot biosphere holds important ramifications for the possibility of life
on other planets, including seemingly inhospitable planets within our
own solar system. He was Professor Emeritus of Astronomy at Cornell
University and was the founder (and for 20 years director) of Cornell
Center for Radiophysics and Space Research. He was also involved in air
accident investigations.

Robert Shope, age 74. Died: January 23, 2004.
Virus Expert Who Warned of Epidemics, Dies died of lung transplant
complications. Later purported to have died of Idiopathic Pulmonary
Fibrosis which can be caused by either environmental stimulus or a
VIRUS. It would not be hard to administer a drug that would cause Dr.
Shope’s lung transplant to either be rejected or to cause complications
from the transplant. Dr. Shope led the group of scientists who had an 11
MILLION dollar fed grant to ensure the new lab would keep in the nasty
bugs. Dr. Shope also met with and worked with Dr. Mike Kiley on the UTMB
Galveston lab upgrade to BSL 4. When the upgrade would be complete the
lab will host the most hazardous pathogens known to man especially
tropical and emerging diseases as well as bioweapons.

‘Dr. Roger’ Died: Summer 2003.
‘Roger’ was pseudonym for this genetics scientist. He was 17 and lived
in Roswell, New Mexico in 1947 when the unexplained object crashed. He
told a woman he worked with in 1977 named ‘Kate’ while employed by the
Navy, who he helped to clean up the crash site of the 1947 UFO. He
subsequently went to work for the government at this young age and ended
up a geneticist working in China Lake for the Navy. Although he lived
in fear and hiding soon after he told his story to Kate, he retired in
late 1990s or early 2000?s and she saw him again once in early 2002 in
San Diego. He told her she was in danger to talk to him and he left the
store. In 2003 she received a phone call from his ‘friend’ who said he
had been executed in his retirement home in Connecticut. The body had
been removed by a black government looking vehicle. The home had been
cleaned up and the body removed without any public notices of his death
or existence. Many disfigured and abnormal animals were found in the
desert near Groom Lake during his time there and after. Kate thought he
might have been doing this gruesome experimental work.

contact with SARS patients, he contracted the infection. On March 11, he
was admitted to a hospital in Bangkok and isolated. Less than three
weeks later he died. He was a dedicated and internationally respected
Italian epidemiologist, who did work of enduring value combating
infectious illness around the world.

focusing on helping create new drugs that interfere with replication of
the virus that causes AIDS. One year earlier, Holzmayer obeyed senior
management orders to fire Huang. Huang appeared from behind the
deliveryman. He shot Holzmayer several times at close range in the chest
and head. As Holzmayer fell in her doorway, Huang ran to a Ford
Explorer and drove away. Less than an hour after the shooting, Huang
called his wife, according to Foster City Police Capt. Craig Courtin. He
told her about the shooting and that he was going to kill himself, then
he hung up. Huang’s wife called the emergency services and Foster City

different dates have been reported: November 21 and December 23. Death
ruled stroke. He had defected from Russia to UK. He had been the #1
scientist in the FSU’s bioweapons program. It was thought he was
involved with exhuming the bodies of the 10 London victims of the 1919
Type A flu epidemic. Pasechnik died six weeks after the planned
exhumations were announced. On November 23, 2001, Pasechnik’s death was
reported in the New York Times as having occurred two days earlier.
Pasechnik’s death was made in the United States by Dr. Christopher Davis
of Virginia, who stated that the cause of death was a stroke. Dr. Davis
was the member of British intelligence who de-briefed Dr. Pasechnik at
the time of his defection. Pasechnik was heavily involved in DNA
sequencing research. He had just founded a company like three other
microbiologists working to provide powerful alternatives to
antibiotics. Dr. Vladimir Pasechnik was the boss of William C. Patrick
III who holds 5 patents on the militarized anthrax used by the United
States. Patrick is now a private biowarfare consultant to the military
and CIA. Patrick developed the process by which anthrax spores could be
concentrated at the level of one trillion spores per gram. No other
country has been able to get concentrations above 500 billion per gram.
The anthrax that was sent around the eastern United States last fall was
concentrated at one trillion spores per gram.

heavily involved in research on DNA sequencing, and was last seen at
around midnight on November 16, leaving the St. Jude’s Children’s
Research Advisory Dinner at The Peabody Hotel in Memphis, TN. Associates
attending the dinner said he showed no signs of intoxication, and no
one has admitted to drinking with him. Body found floating one month
later. Workers at a hydroelectric plant in Louisiana found the body of
Don Wiley on Thursday, about 300 miles south of where the molecular
biologist was last seen on Nov. 18 at a medical meeting in Memphis. On
January 14, 2002 (almost two months later) Shelby County Medical
Examiner O.C. Smith announced that his department had ruled Dr. Wiley’s
death to be “accidental”; the result of massive injuries suffered in a
fall from the Hernando de Soto Bridge. Smith said there were paint marks
on Wiley’s rental car similar to the paint used on construction signs
on the bridge, and that the car’s right front hubcap was missing. There
has been no report as to which construction signs Dr. Wiley hit.

information that two scientists, Dr. Ron Jackson and Dr. Ian Ramshaw,
using genetic manipulation and DNA sequencing, had created an incredibly
virulent form of mousepox, a cousin of smallpox and Dr. Nguyen had
worked for 15 years at the same Australian facility. Now for the
intriguing part of this story. On Friday, November 2nd, the Washington
Post reported: ”Officials are now scrambling to determine how a quiet,
61-year-old Vietnamese immigrant, riding the subway each day to and from
her job in a hospital stockroom, was exposed to the deadly anthrax
spores that killed her this week. They worry because there is no obvious
connection to the factors common to earlier anthrax exposures and
deaths: no clear link to the mail or to the media.
