Proof South Africa’s Apartheid Government Developed Germs to Kill Blacks Only
Wouter Basson also known as “Dr. Death” is the
former head of the apartheid government’s
biological warfare programAFRICANGLOBE – Journalists listen to the chemical weapons expert’s testimony
A White South African scientist has told the Truth and Reconciliation Commission that the White apartheid government considered trying to develop a bacteria which would kill only Africans.
The former head of a military research laboratory, Daan Goosen, told the commission that the project had the backing of South Africa’s then Surgeon General, who described it as “the most important project in the country.”
Although the substance was “officially” never developed, Mr Goosen said that an unknown European scientist claimed to have developed a strain of bacteria in the early 1980s “capable of killing pigmented people”.
“It could have been used as a negotiation back-up,” Mr Goosen told the Commission. “A thing like this could have been used to maintain peace. It was a case of being the strongest.”
Plans to travel to Europe for a meeting were abandoned because of fears that it could be a trap, but the witness said South African scientists continued their own work on the project, and also looked into methods of making Blacks selectively infertile.
Goosen also said he and his immediate supervisor, Wouter Basson, had discussed the possibility of killing Nelson Madela and Oliver Tambo – then President of the ANC – through the use of carcinogens, as well as arranging the supply of snake venom “to eliminate an enemy of the state.”
In other testimony, the former head of the police forensics laboratory, General Lothar Neethling, told the Commission that he had been instructed to supply Basson with confiscated supplies of narcotic drugs such as marijuana, LSD and Mandrax.
The intention, he said, was to extract the active ingredients for insertion into crowd-control grenades.
It was alleged that officials plotted to mentally disable Nelson Mandela with poison during the final years of his imprisonment
Mr Goosen told the commission he now realised that he was wrong to work on the projects, but said he had not been thinking rationally at the time.
“It was a time of conflict” he said. “Communism was coming. It was total onslaught.”

On a more positive note, it is alledged that the scientist in charge really took SA taxpayers for a ride, pocketing million of SA rand to develop these weapons, but instead bought property and other assets abroad.
I had heard that Israeli mad scientists were trying to do the same thing as well, isolate a biological weapon that would selectively kill Palestinians. Their biggest stumbling blocks were the fact that Arabs & Israelis share too many of the same genes. Trying to target Arabas biologically would bring about another Jewish holocaust.
