In order\nfor them to acquire this resistance, they must be repeatedly exposed to\nantibiotics in order to provide the &#8220;mutation pressure&#8221; that nudges\nthem toward complete drug immunity.<\/p>\n<p>So if you&#8217;re curious about the origins of such a strain, you can\nessentially reverse engineer the genetic code of the e.coli and determine\nfairly accurately which antibiotics it was exposed to during its development.\nThis step has now been done (see below), and when you look at the genetic\ndecoding of this O104 strain now threatening food consumers across the EU, a\nfascinating picture emerges of how it must have come into existence.<\/p>\n<p>The genetic code reveals the history<\/p>\n<p>When scientists at Germany&#8217;s Robert Koch Institute decoded the\ngenetic makeup of the O104 strain, they found it to be resistant to all the\nfollowing classes and combinations of antibiotics:<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Penicillin\u2019s<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Tetracycline<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Nalidixic acid<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazol<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Cephalosporins<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Amoxicillin \/ clavulanic acid<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Piperacillin-sulbactam<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Piperacillin-tazobactam<\/p>\n<p>In addition, this O104 strain posses an ability to produce\nspecial enzymes that give it what might be called &#8220;bacteria\nsuperpowers&#8221; known technically as ESBLs:<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Extended-Spectrum Beta-Lactamases (ESBLs) are enzymes that\ncan be produced by bacteria making them resistant to cephalosporins e.g.\ncefuroxime, cefotaxime and ceftazidime &#8211; which are the most widely used\nantibiotics in many hospitals,&#8221; explains the Health Protection Agency in\nthe UK (http:\/\/www.hpa.org.uk\/Topics\/Infect&#8230;).<\/p>\n<p>On top of that, this O104 strain possesses two genes &#8212; TEM-1 and\nCTX-M-15 &#8212; that &#8220;have been making doctors shudder since the 1990s,&#8221;\nreports The Guardian (http:\/\/www.guardian.co.uk\/commentis&#8230;). And why do they\nmake doctors shudder? Because they&#8217;re so deadly that many people infected with\nsuch bacteria experience critical organ failure and simply die.<\/p>\n<p>Bioengineering a deadly superbug<\/p>\n<p>So how, exactly, does a bacterial strain come into existence\nthat&#8217;s resistant to over a dozen antibiotics in eight different drug classes\nand features two deadly gene mutations plus ESBL enzyme capabilities?<\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s really only one way this happens (and only one way) &#8212;\nyou have to expose this strain of e.coli to all eight classes of antibiotics\ndrugs. Usually this isn&#8217;t done at the same time, of course: You first expose it\nto penicillin and find the surviving colonies which are resistant to\npenicillin. You then take those surviving colonies and expose them to\ntetracycline. The surviving colonies are now resistant to both penicillin and\ntetracycline. You then expose them to a sulfa drug and collect the surviving\ncolonies from that, and so on. It is a process of genetic selection done in a\nlaboratory with a desired outcome. This is essentially how some bioweapons are\nengineered by the U.S. Army in its laboratory facility in Ft. Detrick, Maryland\n(http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Nation&#8230;).<\/p>\n<p>Although the actual process is more complicated than this, the\nupshot is that creating a strain of e.coli that&#8217;s resistant to eight classes of\nantibiotics requires repeated, sustained expose to those antibiotics. It is\nvirtually impossible to imagine how this could happen all by itself in the\nnatural world. For example, if this bacteria originated in the food (as we&#8217;ve\nbeen told), then where did it acquire all this antibiotic resistance given the\nfact that antibiotics are not used in vegetables?<\/p>\n<p>When considering the genetic evidence that now confronts us, it\nis difficult to imagine how this could happen &#8220;in the wild.&#8221; While\nresistance to a single antibiotic is common, the creation of a strain of e.coli\nthat&#8217;s resistant to eight different classes of antibiotics &#8212; in combination &#8212;\nsimply defies the laws of genetic permutation and combination in the wild.\nSimply put, this superbug e.coli strain could not have been created in the\nwild. And that leaves only one explanation for where it really came from: the\nlab.<\/p>\n<p>Engineered and then released into the wild<\/p>\n<p>The evidence now points to this deadly strain of e.coli being\nengineered and then either being released into the food supply or somehow\nescaping from a lab and entering the food supply inadvertently. If you disagree\nwith that conclusion &#8212; and you&#8217;re certainly welcome to &#8212; then you are forced\nto conclude that this octobiotic superbug (immune to eight classes of\nantibiotics) developed randomly on its own&#8230; and that conclusion is far\nscarier than the &#8220;bioengineered&#8221; explanation because it means\noctobiotic superbugs can simply appear anywhere at any time without cause. That\nwould be quite an exotic theory indeed.<\/p>\n<p>My conclusion actually makes more sense: This strain of e.coli\nwas almost certainly engineered and then released into the food supply for a\nspecific purpose. What would that purpose be? It&#8217;s obvious, I hope.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s all problems, reaction, and solution at work here. First\ncause a PROBLEM (a deadly strain of e.coli in the food supply). Then wait for\nthe public REACTION (huge outcry as the population is terrorized by e.coli). In\nresponse to that, enact your desired SOLUTION (total control over the global\nfood supply and the outlawing of raw sprouts, raw milk and raw vegetables).<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s what this is all about, of course. The FDA relied on the\nsame phenomenon in the USA when pushing for its recent &#8220;Food Safety\nModernization Act&#8221; which essentially outlaws small family organic farms\nunless they lick the boots of FDA regulators. The FDA was able to crush farm\nfreedom in America by piggybacking on the widespread fear that followed e.coli\noutbreaks in the U.S. food supply. When people are afraid, remember, it&#8217;s not\ndifficult to get them to agree to almost any level of regulatory tyranny. And\nmaking people afraid of their food is a simple matter&#8230; a few government press\nreleases emailed to the mainstream media news affiliates is all it takes.<\/p>\n<p>First ban the natural medicine, then attack the food supply<\/p>\n<p>Now, remember: All this is happening on the heels of the EU ban\non medicinal herbs and nutritional supplements &#8212; a ban that blatantly outlaws\nnutritional therapies that help keep people healthy and free from disease. Now\nthat all these herbs and supplements are outlawed, the next step is to make\npeople afraid of fresh food, too. That&#8217;s because fresh vegetables are\nmedicinal, and as long as the public has the right to buy fresh vegetables,\nthey can always prevent disease.<\/p>\n<p>But if you can make people AFRAID of fresh vegetables &#8212; or even\noutlaw them altogether &#8212; then you can force the entire population onto a diet\nof dead foods and processed foods that promote degenerative disease and bolster\nthe profits of the powerful drug companies.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s all part of the same agenda, you see: Keep people sick, deny\nthem access to healing herbs and supplements, and then profit from their\nsuffering at the hands of the global drug cartels.<\/p>\n<p>GMOs play a similar role in all this, of course: They&#8217;re designed\nto contaminate the food supply with genetic code that causes widespread\ninfertility among human beings. And those who are somehow able to reproduce\nafter exposure to GMOs still suffer from degenerative disease that enriches the\ndrug companies from &#8220;treatment.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Do you recall which country was targeted in this recent e.coli\nscare? Spain. Why Spain? You may recall that leaked cables from Wikileaks\nrevealed that Spain resisted the introduction of GMOs into its agricultural\nsystem, even as the U.S. government covertly threatened political retaliation\nfor its resistance. This false blaming of Spain for the e.coli deaths is\nprobably retaliation for Spain&#8217;s unwillingness to jump on the GMO bandwagon.\n(http:\/\/www.naturalnews.com\/030828_G&#8230;)<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s the real story behind the economic devastation of Spain&#8217;s\nvegetable farmers. It&#8217;s one of the subplots being pursued alongside this e.coli\nsuperbug scheme.<\/p>\n<p>Food as weapons of war &#8211; created by Big Pharma?<\/p>\n<p>By the way, the most likely explanation of where this strain of\ne.coli was bioengineered is that the drug giants came up with it in their own\nlabs. Who else has access to all the antibiotics and equipment needed to manage\nthe targeted mutations of potentially thousands of e.coli colonies? The drug companies\nare uniquely positioned to both carry out this plot and profit from it. In\nother words, they have the means and the motive to engage in precisely such\nactions.<\/p>\n<p>Aside from the drug companies, perhaps only the infectious\ndisease regulators themselves have this kind of laboratory capacity. The CDC,\nfor example, could probably pull this off if they really wanted to.<\/p>\n<p>The proof that somebody bioengineered this e.coli strain is\nwritten right in the DNA of the bacteria. That&#8217;s forensic evidence, and what it\nreveals cannot be denied. This strain underwent repeated and prolonged exposure\nto eight different classes of antibiotics, and then it somehow managed to\nappear in the food supply. How do you get to that if not through a well-planned\nscheme carried out by rogue scientists? There is no such thing as\n&#8220;spontaneous mutation&#8221; into a strain that is resistant to the top\neight classes of brand-name antibiotic drugs being sold by Big Pharma today.\nSuch mutations have to be deliberate.<\/p>\n<p>Once again, if you disagree with this assessment, then what\nyou&#8217;re saying is that NO, it wasn&#8217;t done deliberately&#8230; it happened\naccidentally! And again, I&#8217;m saying that&#8217;s even scarier! Because that means the\nantibiotic contamination of our world is now at such an extreme level of overkill\nthat a strain of e.coli in the wild can be saturated with eight different\nclasses of antibiotics to the point where it naturally develops into its own\ndeadly superbug. If that&#8217;s what people believe, then that&#8217;s almost a scarier\ntheory than the bioengineering explanation!<\/p>\n<p>A new era has begun: Bioweapons in your food<\/p>\n<p>But in either case &#8212; no matter what you believe &#8212; the simple\ntruth is that the world is now facing a new era of global superbug strains of\nbacteria that can&#8217;t be treated with any known pharmaceutical. They can all, of\ncourse, be readily killed with colloidal silver, which is exactly why the FDA\nand world health regulators have viciously attacked colloidal silver companies\nall these years: They can&#8217;t have the public getting its hands on natural\nantibiotics that really work, you see. That would defeat the whole purpose of\nmaking everybody sick in the first place.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, these strains of e.coli superbugs can be quite readily\ntreated with a combination of natural full-spectrum antibiotics from plants\nsuch as garlic, ginger, onions and medicinal herbs. On top of that, probiotics\ncan help balance the flora of the digestive tract and &#8220;crowd out&#8221; the\ndeadly e.coli that might happen by. A healthy immune system and\nwell-functioning digestive tract can fight off an e.coli superbug infection,\nbut that&#8217;s yet another fact the medical community doesn&#8217;t want you to know.\nThey much prefer you to remain a helpless victim lying in the hospital, waiting\nto die, with no options available to you. That&#8217;s &#8220;modern medicine&#8221;\nfor ya. They cause the problems that they claim to treat, and then they won&#8217;t\neven treat you with anything that works in the first place.<\/p>\n<p>Nearly all the deaths now attributable to this e.coli outbreak\nare easily and readily avoidable. These are deaths of ignorance. But even more,\nthey may also be deaths from a new era of food-based bioweapons unleashed by\neither a group of mad scientists or an agenda-driven institution that has\ndeclared war on the human population.<\/p>\n<p>Additional developments on this e.coli outbreak<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 22 fatalities have so far been reported, with 2,153 people now\nsickened and possibly facing kidney failure.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 An agricultural ministry in Germany said that even though they\nnow know the source of the outbreak is a German sprout farm, they are still not\nlifting their warnings for people to avoid eating tomatoes and lettuce. In\nother words, keep the people afraid!<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 &#8220;The German variant of E coli, known as O104, is a hybrid\nof the strains that can cause bloody diarrhea and kidney damage called\n&#8216;hemolytic uremic syndrome&#8217;.&#8221; (http:\/\/www.independent.ie\/world-new&#8230;)<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 A total of ten European nations have reported outbreaks of this\ne.coli strain, mostly from people who had visited northern Germany.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 The following story is in German, and it hints that the e.coli\noutbreak might have been a terrorist attack\n(http:\/\/www.aerztezeitung.de\/medizin&#8230;).
