Nurse and Gulf War veteran Joyce Riley returns with devastating new evidence that the federal government is actively covering up a communicable illness devastating hundreds of thousands of troops and their families. Just one day after a presidential advisory commission blamed Gulf War illness on stress, Riley presents confidential VA data showing a 600% increase in tumor rates among active-duty military and reports that 67% of sick veterans are producing children with birth defects, a figure far beyond any normal baseline.
Riley details the mycoplasma incognitus organism identified by Dr. Garth Nicholson, which contains 40% of the HIV envelope gene and produces AIDS-like symptoms without being AIDS itself. She describes how Nicholson was forced out of MD Anderson Cancer Center for researching the disease, how VA doctors who speak out face termination, and how roughly 50% of tested Gulf War veterans are positive for the organism. A Marine Corps caller confirms seeing chemical detection tape turn pink during the ground offensive into Kuwait.
The episode reaches its most sobering moment when Riley reveals that Gulf War veterans have filed a formal complaint with the United Nations Human Rights Commission, accusing the U.S. Department of Defense of crimes against humanity. American soldiers forced to seek justice from a foreign body against their own government represents a profoundly disturbing state of affairs.
