Human Blood May Contain A Cure For AIDS

Lisandro writes "German scientists at the University of Ulm have identified a natural ingredient of human blood that prevents the HIV-1 virus from from infecting immune cells and multiplying. The molecule, which they call virus-inhibitory peptide (VIRIP), promises new types of effective treatment for HIV in the future. 'Tweaks to its amino acid components boosted its anti-HIV potency by two orders of magnitude. Tests also showed that some derivatives of the molecule are highly stable in human blood plasma, and non-toxic even at very high concentrations. A synthetic version of VIRIP also proved effective at blocking HIV, excluding the possibility that some other factor was responsible. VIRIP targets a sugar molecule which HIV uses to infect a host cell. '"

    "I have lost two people so far to this disease in my life, and I have more than 5 friends that are HIV+ today."

    How many of those people got HIV through no fault of their own? Right.

    How many people have Type 1 diabetes through no fault of their own? Right.

    I would much prefer to cure a disease that targets people indiscriminately. HIV is not that disease, no matter your fellings on the subject.

    "Anyone with half a brain can see this is just another ploy by the liberals to prevent our boys from becoming circumsized." - by Anonymous Coward on Friday April 20, @02:13PM (#18814511)

    Circumcision mandatory? It's not, and certainly not for health reasons. It is for jews though, so jews use it to hide inside the masses of non-jews which get circumsized in various nations, especially the USA (how many in the medical field are jews that champion circumcision), point-blank.

    I.E.-> People of MOST races and faiths have been going without circumcision for ages and they survive well without it. It is however, in the best interests of the Jews to circumcise non-jews by ALL means so they can hide amongst non-jews/goyim!

    E.G.-> That is because circumcized penises were what identified Jews AS jews during Nazi Germany's pursuit of them.

    I.E.-> Circumcizing the goyim, as jews call outsiders (non-jews/gentiles etc.) allows for "security by obscurity" for jews, so nazi german style identification cannot happen here to the jews in the USA!

    As to their persecution by germans? You don't read this in history books, as it was doubtlessly edited out of the history books by those with money or ownership of the presses, currently doubtless largely jews in the USA.

    (This same idea/technique was practiced by Thomas Edison against Nikola Tesla when Edison was outdone by Tesla, & Edison paid out bloody big monies to have Tesla removed from the presses as to his accomplishments. Tesla whom Edison also ripped off no less regarding Direct Current vs. Alternating Current efficiencies which tesla gained for Edison while in his employ, and moreso for George Westinghouse later via A/C over D/C usage (which Edison could not stand he had been outdone on by Tesla), and via the same machinations for the masses generally)!

    So, that all said, ask ANY native german (especially older ones) this:

    When Jews were asked 6 months beforehand or more by germans to leave germany and did not? What did they expect?? Germany is NOT the USA, and germans do as germans see fit there on their own land, and ARE entitled to do so as THEY see fit, not the rest of the planet.

    Who the hell is anyone to tell anyone how to live in their own land or home???

    Above all else, the nation germany? Is NOT jewish land (they were literally just visitors there who disobeyed the rightful residents requiring they leave).

    Folks largely realize that people do not take radical measures against others, without righteous indignation and when all other methods failed.

    In essence, a more mundane example as an analog would be that IF someone told me to leave their home and I did not? I would not expect to be treated well either.

    I predict someone is going to call me a Nazi now, and I truly am anything but (and in fact may be partially jewish in my heritage in fact) but I challenge anyone to disprove my points above, especially those regarding what gives anyone the right how to live in their own lands especially and moreso, how to dictate what they wish to non-natives there.

    (This is coming from someone who had his ancestors put into labor camps by germans, albeit after Poland was invaded, not on german land and also possibly may be partially jewish, since so many jews lived in poland as well and it is a regular "we aren't sure in my family" issue in fact)

    This is no different than our unwarranted and based on false pretenses of WMD presence in IRAQ, for an invasion of arab lands like IRAQ being perpetrated by the US Gov't. under Darth Bush and Darth Cheney, so they can profit by it. The iraqis don't want our 'brand of freedom', nor did the ask for it!

    The iraqis know better, and above all else, it is NOT our "god given right" to impress our ideas on them either if they were not asked for, and worse, that we did so under absolutely now proven to be falsehoods.

    "Yeah, that completely explains Nazi Germany persecuting Jews on foreign soil" - by aguenter (1060008) on Friday April 20, @05:51PM (#18817799)

    What did Weisenthal do pursuing germans all over the world for years? I notice you completely steered clear of the fact the jews when asked to leave germany didn't, why is that??

    Man - they in particular, by not leaving germany when asked? Only brought it on themselves.

    (Again, if I came to live in say, property you owned, and then refused to leave (even though you own it), you might do the same when all other avenues failed you).

    Do I agree with the methods used? No, I don't & had family that was victim to the Nazi war machine in fact, but that was then, this is now.

    Personally, at the most, I would have exiled instead of killed anybody doing that, which is what the germans did offer initially, transport out from what I was told by a now dead old german guy and then a few years ago by a young german guy, and I believe it. You never hear WHY the jews were asked to leave germany as is the german's right though to do, it is their land.

    The point is for me and mine personally who went thru this as jews did, that was all past and I had relatives that still live that went thru that.

    (Above all else - You never hear other peoples complaining endlessly as Jews do about this. What you never hear or see is the other side's view though. This makes all I said very self-evident that something is not right, when only 1 side airs their views and the other is suppressed! That smacks of something VERY wrong in fact!)

    "and then, here it comes, the big ironic whopper..." -by aguenter (1060008) on Friday April 20, @05:51PM (#18817799)

    Yes, the fact that it was GERMAN'S NATION, not JEW NATION, and they were asked to leave and did not, and from where I have heard it from several times from Germans that lived thru it Jews were taking away german's lives and ruining the nation. The exact example I was given:

    E.G.-> For instance, a family that was bakers for 100's of years suddenly gets a competitor from a jew and that jew is funded/underwritten by jews in surrounding villages to low price kill that german that has been around for centuries in that job until they go out of business and then the jews drove up prices as they saw fit because no competition was present. That is only a single example of what I heard but always the same thing generally. Nothing that took brains, just group action by a collective.

    (And again, when they were asked to leave Germany, they would not. Bad move. Germany is NOT the USA. Germans had every right to extricate a cancer as they felt jews were in their nation. Germany is NOT the USA, germans do as they see fight because it is their lands period! Get that thru your head!)

    I see you do not read anyone's words fully - I had family in those camps, labor camps. during WWII.

    (Not the death ones jews were in, but close to the point you died anyways from little food and being worked to death. Do I love germans for it? The germans' today are not those of those days, so I let it go and realize this. Jews apparently do not).

    Also, what did the Jews do for years to Germans all over the planet in Weisenthal's crew pursuing them? The same right?? So, I guess they are better correct??? What happened to "turn the other cheek" and letting sleeping dogs lie????

    Answers for questions asked here, straight from Jew Talmud, about their views on gentiles/goyim (non jews) that may explain why they are persecuted (perhaps rightfully so, because this disgusted me about them from their OWN beliefs systems written down):

    http://groups.google.com/group/soc.men/browse_thre ad/thread/2385ab653d66252/6cc421202f854b7b

    There is much evidence that the core of Jewish teaching is that only Jews are "Chosen," are really worthy of YHWH's blessings. All others are animals, to be exploited. A lot like the Gypsy creed....Gypsies and Jews are very closely related.

    From their Talmud:

    #1. Sanhedrin 59a: "Murdering Goyim (Gentiles) is like killing a wild
    animal."

    #2. Aboda Sarah 37a: "A Gentile girl who is three years old can be
    violated."

    #3. Yebamoth 11b: "Sexual intercourse with a little girl is permitted
    if she is three years of age."

    #4. Abodah Zara 26b: "Even the best of the Gentiles should be killed."

    #5. Yebamoth 98a: "All gentile children are animals."

    #6. Schulchan Aruch, Johre Deah, 122: "A Jew is forbidden to drink from
    a glass of wine which a Gentile has touched, because the touch has made
    the wine unclean."

    #7. Baba Necia 114, 6: "The Jews are human beings, but the nations of
    the world are not human beings but beasts."

    See the jews viewpoints of others, and you think tossing them into furnaces is unwarranted? I still do, but this is why they are outcasts... I mean, look at their views on the rest of us! They are so arrogant as to think they are "the chosen people" but anyone that controls the presses and media can write and state things like they did saying they are "the chosen".

    When the rest of the nations of the world didn't want them, that said quite a bit to myself. I had to see both their viewpoint and that of the germans as the prime example. I see the Jew view above and I do NOT agree with it, it is disgusting.

    Raping 3 year old kids? My God!

    On the original subject: I agree, Jews are getting others in nations like the USA circumcized so they can hide inside by security by obscurity, so they cannot be identified as jews as they were in Nazi Germany, when they were asked months beforehand to leave, in a nation that was not theirs.
