Apparent retaliation motives

Apparent revenge motives

World-wide spread of disease in epic proportions

Massive attempts to cover up evidence and story lines

These all sound like the makings of a great James Bond or Jack Ryan movie plot but they are not fictional, they actually happened and it is all spelled out for you and evidence provided in Edward T. Haslam's book, Dr. Mary's Monkey. It all started in the 1950's and it involved finding a cure for Polio.  For those who can remember, Polio was a word that struck fear in the minds of everyone because at that time there was no cure for the disease.  Then through the miracle of medical research a cure was discovered but at what cost.  At the time the cure seemed better than the long term ramifications of the thousands of Polio vaccine injections that were given to the children of America if not the world.  Consider this fact, that in the 1950's there were approximately 33,000 Polio attacks annually and that was considered an epidemic.  In the 1980's hundreds of thousands of people were diagnosed with many different types of cancers and there appears to have been a link between the cancers and the Polio vaccine injections.  In fact the future wave of cancers was actually predicted in the 50's and 60's but kept secret.

Many things were kept secret by the U. S. Government and many reports were squashed or manipulated to proof false facts.  Weave this story into a narrative that describes how notable people in America worked at creating a cancer-causing virus for the purpose of killing off Fidel Castro and then how that virus began to spread throughout the world and you begin to understand how you could create a narrative that just seems impossible to believe if it were not for those pesky facts that indicate that it really did happen and happened just as described in this most amazing book.  And if all that were not enough to tweak your interest consider this fact, there were relationships between the major players and Lee Harvey Oswald that I had never heard about and I dare say you probably have not as well.  It really casts doubts on the Warren Commission Report that supposedly was the end-all to the speculation as to who killed President Kennedy and why.  It all involves relationships between highly placed U. S. Government officials, well known medical professionals, Cuban activists, Mafia members, the CIA, the FBI, local police departments and even foreign leaders.  It is very overwhelming!

If it were not for the page after page of recorded facts and footnotes that author Haslam provides in this book, the book would be just one more analysis of what may or may not have happened in Dallas.  Read it and then you decide what you think is true or not.  I have formed my opinion and it is not very favorable towards the U. S. Government and its covert activities.  If the facts as provided are true, and they certainly appear that they are, the government is the main cause of the spread of the HIV virus, breast cancer, prostate cancer and skin cancers that reached epidemic proportions in the 1980's and continue today and the government's attempt at concealing what happened. 

Final Test:  Would I read the book again?  That is a great question.  The book is so overwhelming and as I read it I was not sure where it was going until after I had read the entire book.  If I were to read it again it would be to cement or reinforce some of the facts.  I do plan on reading some of the reference material provided.

Next Review:  Not sure at this time.
