WILL IRISH EYES BE SMILING?

The Irish Independent 11th December, 2001, reported local authorities had rebuked the E.P.A. for failing to respond to serious outbreaks of E colt contamination in drinking water.

"There were 24 serious contamination outbreaks at a time when water quality is worsening."

Some 1623 group schemes nationwide are unsatisfactory with widespread E colt contamination from farm run off, sewage, septic tanks and industry.

"Other dangerous substances can be found in the water we drink: aluminium (associated with Alzheimer's disease in some studies), and toxic nitrates.

In certain cases, there is too high a level of fluoride."

The Irish Government is over a barrel, maybe of Guinness Stout, their promised study into "the Effects of Water Fluoridation on bottle fed babies" has again been washed away with Guiness' Christmas celebrations, hoping few will remember their "before Christmas" delivery statement.

The Irish Examiner 22nd December, 2001, published fluoride facts especially relating to bottle fed children in fluoridated areas, they stated:

"Newborns who are fed formula prepared with tap water are receiving three times the fluoride limit recommended by the British Medical Association, while a three month old child receives up to six times (600%) the limit, according to Senator Doyle."

"fluoridated drinking water has been linked to cancer, gastro intestinal disorders, hip fractures and thyroid disorders, while a study published in the U.S. medical journal NeuroToxicity found that fluoride exposure could produce lower IQ levels in children."

Real problems for Irish Government

An Irish medical doctor, Dr Rynne GP has filed a legal case against the Irish Government.

"The basis of his case is that the Irish Constitution guarantees certain human rights, and the 1960 fluoridation law is unconstitutional as it infringes his right to bodily integrity. It is likely to be heard in the high court in about 18 months.

Senior Counsel believes Dr Rynne has every chance of winning his case in the high court or the supreme court. Should that fail, he has an excellent chance in the European Court of Human Rights, arguing that fluoridation breaks article five of the Council of Europe's 1997 Convention on Human Rights and Biomedicine, which states 'an intervention in the health field may only be carried out after the person concerned has given free and informed consent'."

Irish dentists group oppose fluoridation

More litigation is about to be levelled at the Irish Minister for Health, Michael Martin, a group of 20 Irish Dentists who have broken ranks with the Irish Dental Association.

"The group of 20 Irish Dentists Opposing Fluoridation maintain that health authorities have not fulfilled their obligation under the 1960 Health Act to carry out regular surveys into the health effects of fluoridation.

Spokesman Dr Don MacCauley said the department had never carried out a comprehensive survey, although international research has linked fluoridation to cancer, irritable bowel syndrome, hip fractures and thyroid disorders. A study published in American medical journal Neuro Toxicity found that fluoride exposure could produce lower IQ levels in children.

Up to 50% of Dr MacCauley's teenage patients have dental fluorosis which has been linked to fluoridation which creates white spots or lines on teeth and causes tooth enamel to chip, he said.

The agent used, hydrofluosflic acid, is a waste component of the fertiliser industry and contains traces of chromium, mercury, arsenic and lead, according to Dr MacCauley.

Ireland is now the only country in Europe to insist that drinking water be fluoridated, although nine county councils, two corporations and seven urban district councils have voted to end fluoridation.

Dr MacCauley said the group opposed fluoridation because medication is being administered without consent, the public has not been fully informed of the risks and side effects and fluoridation causes dental fluorosis.

Kildare based GP Andrew Rynne is taking a separate case against the Government and the Irish Medicine Board (IMB) on the grounds that, although fluoride is a medicine, it is not licensed by the IMB." (Irish Examiner, 22nd October, 2001)

Fluoridation is foisted on populations. Communities must beware of what looks like innocent claims and actions by Governments in concert with drug producers such as fluoride chemical pollutants fed to their people. They work mainly through their bureaucracies and their working procedure is like cutting their slices off a salami sausage.

Just a very thin slice at a time, generally unnoticeable, however careful observation shows the whole sausage quietly disappears in an atmosphere of covert corrupt achievement at a real cost to the trusting community.

The methods used in these dubious operations are usually hidden from the community.

Some nations classify them as the use of "criminal silence".
