Ethiopian Refugee, Saad Hussein, Arrested for Allegedly Targeting President Barack Obama With HIV-Infected Blood

There are some really sick people out there and this latest case is no exception. Saad Hussein, an Ethiopian refugee, has been arrested for allegedly sending Obama and his staff envelopes containing HIV-infected blood, in the hopes of killing or harming them. A spokesman for the U.S. Postal Inspection Service said that it’s only the second time ever that HIV-infected blood has been sent with malicious intent through the U.S. mail system.

In the weeks leading up to Obama’s inauguration, Hussein sent an envelope addressed to “Barack Obama” to offices of the Illinois government in Springfield, Ill., according to court documents. The envelope contained a series of unusual items, including a letter with reddish stains and an admission ticket for Obama’s election-night celebration in Chicago’s Grant Park. Court documents said Hussein, who takes drugs to treat a mental illness, later told FBI agents he is “very sick with HIV” and cut his fingers with a razor so he could bleed on the letter.

Hazmat teams were called in after the envelope was opened, and offices of the Illinois Department on Aging and the Department of Revenue were locked down for nearly two hours, locking 300 staffers in their offices, court documents said.

Hussein, with his brother acting as an interpreter, told FBI agents he was actually “an admirer” of Obama and was “seeking help from the government,” according to court documents. He also told them he was hoping to obtain tickets to the inaugural ceremonies in Washington, the documents said. Source: CNN

But Hussein wasn’t finished. He allegedly placed two more letters in the mail one addressed to “Emanuel,” an apparent reference to Obama’s current chief of staff, Rahm Emanuel. The two letters contained what appeared to be dried blood, the court documents said.

Hussein, who has never held a job in the three years he’s been in the United States, was arrested last month. An affidavit filed at the time accused Hussein of “knowingly” mailing letters “containing HIV-infected blood, with the intent to kill or injure another,” in violation of federal law.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, HIV is spread only through sexual contact with an infected person, through sharing needles with an infected person, or through blood transfusions of infected blood. That’s all good, but the guy is trouble and they ought deport him back to Ethiopia. He’s not worth the headache and the expense of incarceration. Saad Hussein is a liability. He is certainly no asset to the United States with such a pattern of criminal behavior. Sorry, but back to Africa for this man.

Plans underway to microchip AIDS patients

Apparently the Paupa province in Indonesia is planning to implant microchips in people with HIV/AIDS much like we do dogs and cats in this country:

Under the bylaw, which has caused uproar among human rights activists, patients who had shown “actively sexual behavior” could be implanted with a microchip to monitor their activity, lawmaker John Manangsang said.

“It’s a simple technology. A signal from the microchip will track their movements and this will be received by monitoring authorities,” Manangsang said.

If a patient with HIV/AIDS was found to have infected a healthy person, there would be a penalty, he said without elaborating. Source: Yahoo News/Reuters

It should also be noted that the rates of HIV/AIDS in the Paupa province is about 20 times that of the rest of Indonesia. Experts attribute this disparity to prostitution and promiscuity, as well as lack of education on disease transmission.

In spite of these factors, people should not be “chipped” like effing shelter dogs. The bottom line is that this is not only inhumane and discriminatory, but an egregious human rights violation!

What next, chip people with hepatitis? Or perhaps diabetes? Hell, why don’t we just go ahead and chip everybody so that our every move can be tracked by Big Brother?

This is a slippery slope, and the spread of an infectious disease is no excuse for microchipping human beings. What they need to do is get some comprehensive education programs underway instead of trying to usher in some New World Order type stuff.

I truly hope this bill does not pass, however if it does, I think we all have reason to be concerned, very concerned…
