Sam Bronfman,
with his brothers Abe, Harry and Alan ('Bronfman' is liquor-man in Yiddish)
have a modest hotel and prostitution chain. Bronfmans immediately enter
the pharmacy business, selling via mail order, whiskey, labeling on bottles
such as "Rock-A-Bye Cough Cure" and "Dandy BracerLiver and Kidney
Cure."
Their "health tonics" contained sugar, molasses, bluestone(?), 36
percent alcohol, and tobacco.
October 28, 1919 Congress passed the Volstead
Act.
Sam and Harry opened export houses along the Saskatchewan-North
Dakota border.
They reduced 65-over proof white alcohol, mixing it with
water, a little real whiskey and a touch of burnt sugar.
A shot of sulfuric acid
simulated the aging process.
They charged $24 per barrel - it sold
for up to $140.
"Sam and his brothers cut distribution deals with a fine
cast of businessmen such as Arnold Rothstein, Meyer Lansky, Charles "Lucky"
Luciano, and Arthur Dutch Schultz, Flegenheimer.
In Detroit,
the "little Jewish Navy" under Morris Dalit ferried the Bronfman liquor into
the US.
In Chicago, James "Big Jim" Colosimo annoyed Sam Bronfman by
showing no interest in buying his liquor, preferring to focus on his already
profitable businesses of drugs, prostitution, and loan-sharking.
But
Big Jim passed away suddenly. His nephew, John Torrio, took over, and wisely
chose to help Bronfman usher his liquor into Chicago.
Torrios lieutenant, a gent by the name of Al Capone,
led the operations of bringing Bronfmans liquor from Saskatchewan to
Minneapolis, then to Chicago, using cars, trucks and the Soo line.
Another gent by the name of Benjamin "Bugs" Siegel and Meyer
Lansky were in charge of protecting Bronfman liquor shipments across the
border against hijackers.
To meet the growing
demand, Sam bought up farmland along the border and built an underground
pipeline to pump his liquor nicknamed, "Seagram Chickencock," a mixture
of pure alcohol, sulfuric
acid, caramel, water and aged rye whiskey into the USA. Between 1920
and 1930, 34,000 Americans died from alcohol poisoning." - Frank
Parlato

am troubled by evidence suggesting that
Ms. Bronfman repeatedly and
consistently leveraged her wealth and social status as a means of intimidating,
controlling and punishing Nxivms enemies." - Judge Nicholas G. Garaufis,
Federal District Court in Brooklyn
Nxivm (pronounced NEX-ee-um), which
was headquartered near Albany, became known as a sex cult after

During
a secret ritual,
the women were branded with his initials near their pelvis while saying,
Master, please brand me, it would be an honor.

mid-1920s Treasury
Department estimates 60 million gallons of industrial ethanol are being
stolen annually.
"The Prohibition Era in the United States is often
used as an example of how banning recreational substances not only increases
their popularity but also causes a boom
in criminal activity. Indeed, it was Prohibition that greatly increased the
strength of the American
Mafia, as the top crime lords of the day grew rich through the clandestine
trade and sale of alcohol in addition to gambling and other activities." -
Whitney Webb
Hidden in Plain Sight
1926
Calvin Coolidge turns to
chemistry as an enforcement tool. Some 70 denaturing formulas exist.
denature: de·na·ture [dee-ney-cher] verb (used with
object), de·na·tured, de·na·tur·ing.
1. to deprive (something) of its natural character, properties, etc.
2. to render (any of various alcohols) unfit for drinking by adding an
unwholesome substance that does not alter usefulness for other purposes.
3. Biochemistry - to treat (a
protein or the
like) by chemical or physical means so as to alter its original state.
4. to make (fissionable material) unsuitable for use in an atomic
weapon by mixing it with unfissionable material.
Most simply add methyl
alcohol into the mix.
Others used
bitter-tasting compounds
that were less lethal, designed to make the alcohol taste so awful that it
became undrinkable.
To sell the stolen industrial alcohol, the liquor
syndicates employed alchemists to "renature" the
products, returning them to a drinkable state.
Stolen redistilled
alcohol becomes the primary source of liquor.
Treasury Department
officials demand 10% methanol be added to all ethanol
manufactured.
Christmas Eve 1926
Streets aglitter with snow and
lights a man afraid of Santa Claus
stumbles into the emergency room at New York City's Bellevue Hospital. He is
flushed, gasping with fear: Santa Claus, he tells the nurses, is chasing him
with a baseball bat.
The
toxin-induced hallucination
- a paroxysm of death -
tallied up more than 60 people made desperately ill from
methanol poisoning - eight
dead.
Within the next two days, another 23 people died.
In New
York City, 1,200 are sickened by
methanol; 400
die.
Doctors see
methanol toxicity regularly during
Prohibition.
The bootlegged whiskies and so-called gins often made
people sick.
The liquor produced in hidden stills frequently came
tainted with methanol.
This outbreak was bizarrely
different.
The deaths came courtesy of the
Treasury Department.
"The
government knows it is not stopping drinking by putting poison in alcohol." -
New York City medical examiner Charles Norris
1927 Deaths in New York City climb to 700.
By this
time denaturing formulas included notable poisons -
kerosene and brucine (a plant
alkaloid closely related to strychnine),
gasoline,
benzene,
cadmium, iodine,
zinc, mercury salts,
nicotine,
ether,
formaldehyde,
chloroform, camphor,
carbolic acid,
quinine, and
acetone. "Normally, no
government would engage in such business. It is only in the curious fanaticism
of Prohibition that any
means, however barbarous, are considered justified." - Chicago Tribune
editorial 1927
"Must Uncle Sam guarantee safety first for souses?" -
Omaha Bee
1928 "Practically all the liquor that
is sold in New York today is toxic!" - Charles Norris
Charles Norris
assigns his toxicologist, Alexander Gettler, to
analyze confiscated
whiskey for poisons and publicized every death by alcohol
poisoning.
Charles Norris points out that most of those sickened and
dying are those "who cannot afford expensive protection and deal in low grade
stuff."
Anti-Prohibition legislation pushes for a halt in the use of
lethal chemistry.
"Only one possessing the
instincts of a wild beast would desire to kill or
make blind the man who takes a drink of
liquor, even if he purchased it from one violating the Prohibition
statutes." - Sen. James Reed of Missouri
1933
End of Prohibition: Estimates of at least 10,000 people from "denaturing".
"Our national experiment in
extermination." - Charles
Norris, the chief medical examiner of New York City during the
1920s
Denaturing program ends only once the 18th Amendment is repealed
in December 1933.
1935 Joseph P. Kennedy, the father of John
F. Kennedy, has multiplied his fortune 25x from 4 million dollars to over 100
million dollars smuggling scotch whiskey during
prohibition.
1970s DEA sprays cannabis fields in
Mexico with Paraquat, a herbicide, primarily intended to destroy
crops.
Government officials insist awareness of the toxin will deter
marijuana users.
A half century later they echo the official mantra of the 1920s - if
some citizens ended up poisoned, well, they'd brought it upon
themselves.

This web site is not a commercial web site and
is presented for educational purposes only.

This website defines a
new perspective with which to engage reality to which its author adheres. The
author feels that the falsification of reality outside personal experience has
forged a populace unable to discern propaganda from reality and that this has
been done purposefully by an international corporate cartel through their
agents who wish to foist a corrupt version of reality on the human race.
Religious intolerance occurs when any group refuses to tolerate religious
practices, religious beliefs or persons due to their religious ideology. This
web site marks the founding of a system of philosophy named The Truth of the
Way of the Lumière Infinie - a rational gnostic mystery religion based
on reason which requires no leap of faith, accepts no tithes, has no supreme
leader, no church buildings and in which each and every individual is
encouraged to develop a personal relation with the Creator and Sustainer
through the pursuit of the knowledge of reality in the hope of curing the
spiritual corruption that has enveloped the human spirit. The tenets of The
Truth of the Way of the Lumière Infinie are spelled out in detail on
this web site by the author. Violent acts against individuals due to their
religious beliefs in America is considered a "hate crime."
This web site
in no way condones violence. To the contrary the intent here is to reduce the
violence that is already occurring due to the international corporate cartels
desire to control the human race. The international corporate cartel already
controls the world economic system, corporate media worldwide, the global
industrial military entertainment complex and is responsible for the collapse
of morals, the elevation of self-centered behavior and the destruction of
global ecosystems. Civilization is based on coöperation. Coöperation
does not occur at the point of
a gun.
American social mores and values have declined precipitously
over the last century as the corrupt international cartel has garnered more and
more power. This power rests in the ability to deceive the populace in general
through corporate media by pressing emotional buttons which have been
preprogrammed into the population through prior mass media psychological
operations. The results have been the destruction of the family and the
destruction of social structures that do not adhere to the corrupt
international elites vision of a perfect world. Through
distraction and coercion the direction of thought of the bulk of the population
has been directed toward solutions proposed by the corrupt international elite
that further consolidates their power and which further their purposes.
All views and opinions presented on this web site are the views and
opinions of individual human men and women that, through their writings, showed
