BREAKING NEWS, CODEX, ALL COUNTRIES

We can COUNT on South Africa to GET TOTALLY IN THE GERMANS and EU's FACES on Monday at the Codex meeting.

The big UNKNOWN is whether or not we'll get enough OTHER countries to back SOUTH AFRICA UP to KNOCK CODEX BACKWARDS from step 7 to step 3.

If ENOUGH of you WORLD WIDE go to http://iahf.com/index3.html and click on the FIRST ITEM marked ALERT- SEND CODEX FORM LETTER TO DELEGATES

Send the form letter to the US and all other countries marked in BOLD on the drop down list of countries, we just MIGHT pull a rabbit out of the hat..... but its up to YOU to DO THIS and to MASS FORWARD this alert around the world immediately......

I have been feverishly making some KEY international calls for the past several hours to exhort key people around the world to ACT in mass forwarding this alert. We expect MASSIVE ACTION in the US, Canada, UK, Australia, New Zealand and ALL OVER EUROPE but you MUST do YOUR SHARE, RIGHT NOW.

We ARE BUILDING MOMENTUM here folks, but if we want to ride this WAVE into the SHORE SAFELY to STOP CODEX- I need each and every one of you to ACT IMMEDIATELY.

ONE LAST THING TO AMERICANS:

Call the Whitehouse Comments line at 202-456-1414 and give President Bush the following message on this Codex vitamin issue which should also EMAIL to him at president@whitehouse.gov:

NO TO FINALIZATION OF CODEX VITAMIN STANDARD ON NOVEMBER FIRST IN BONN

"President Bush: on Monday, November 1st, an unelected FDA bureaucrat who you exercise control over will be the US Delegate to the Codex Committee on Nutrition and Foods For Special Dietary Uses Meeting in Bonn, Germany.

Her name is Dr.SCHNEEMAN. It is IMPERATIVE that you REIGN HER IN and ORDER HER and her superiors at FDA to OPPOSE FINALIZATION of the global trade standard for vitamins and minerals IN ACCORDANCE WITH CURRENT US LAW, or you can REST ASSURED that you will lose a HUGE number of votes on ELECTION DAY.

The reason is simple: In 1994 with passage of the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act, the American people voted with their FEET against a tyrannical FDA rulemaking effort that threatened to ban consumer access to dietary supplements.

Congress received MORE MAIL on this health freedom issue than on ANY issue in the HISTORY of the US Congress- even MORE than they received during the VIETNAM WAR.

At CODEX in Bonn on MONDAY, unless Dr.Schneeman of the FDA STRENUOSLY OPPOSES finalization of the standard for VITAMINS AND MINERALS- you will LOSE VOTES due to the perception that you're helping the FDA to destroy current US law by setting us up for the HARM-onization of our VITAMIN LAWS to a mindlessly restrictive emerging international standard.

YOU MUST REIGN SCHNEEMAN IN, and you must be AWARE that IAHF has sent a LEGAL DEMAND LETTER to FDA Commissioner Crawford and to Schneeman as well as other FDA officials threatening them with a Title 42 lawsuit if they should violate our civil rights by failing to uphold US law at this Codex meeting.

You will lose MILLIONS of votes if you fail to heed our warning on this matter.....

Please forward this alert.

IAHF has two key peopel enroute to CODEX and will give us eye witness acoounts from Bonn on Monday.

ANYONE WISHING TO MAINTAIN THEIR ACCESS TO DIETARY SUPPLEMENTS MUST ACT IMMEDIATELY, we're at STEP 7. COMPLETION IS STEP 8. IF ENOUGH OF YOU ACT, WE CAN KNOCK IT BACK, we did it once before when it was at step 5, but I can' t do it alone.....

Please, after you FORWARD THIS to friends and family world wide, get on the PHONE and call them to alert them to this ALERT.

You can make FREE international calls via http://www.skype.com to other Skype members over the internet, and you can call non Skype members over the internet for a FRACTION of the normal cost of making international costs.

This time its for ALL the MARBLES. If you have a genetic need for the dietary supplements you use, if you have a medical condition and would be in dire straights if we lose this fight, you must work 50 times harder to make these calls and mass forward this because if you don't, some of you could lose your LIVES. We're up against a EUGENICS agenda here, an intentional effort to cull our numbers but we don't have to take it laying down.....

I'm SURE NOT!! If you appreciate IAHF's efforts to provide leadership on this issue, please send a donation to IAHF 556 Boundary Bay Rd. Point Roberts WA 98281 or send me a donation by paypal at http://www.iahf.com IAHF is busy organizing an EMERGENCY anti Codex meeting MODERATED BY JONATHAN WRIGHT, MD to be held at the ACAM MEETING in San Diego November 19th. A FLYER about this mtg will be put on the IAHF website soon, and I'll need your help distributing it widely.

We're holding this EMERGENCY MEETING just in case we don't stop CODEX on November 1 in case we need a FALLBACK position, because our ABSOLUTE last chance would be to kill ratification of the standard in June in Rome at the meeting of the full Codex Commission.

ACT, then FORWARD, PLEASE!!! The Life you SAVE, could be your OWN!!
