IAHF LIST:

IF you live outside the USA, please forward this to anyone you know inside Gulag Amerika.
No matter where you live in the world it is IMPERATIVE that you support the ANH LAWSUIT to overturn the EU Food Supplements Directive via http://www.alliance-natural-health.org

This unfolding situation in Amerika re FORCED UNIVERSAL MENTAL HEALTH SCREENING is NOT A JOKE OR A HOAX.... WE MUST FOLLOW THE DETAILED ACTION ALERT BELOW.

AMERICANS: MAKE THESE CALLS TODAY TO OPPOSE EUGENICS IN AMERCA

Please make the phone calls to the numbers listed below in the US Congress to oppose Bush's Universal Mental Health Screening agenda- we must urge that funding for Universal Mental Health Screening by cut in the Senate Appropriations bill which does not yet have a number.

We must simultaneously SUPPORT S.1390 The Child Medication Act which prohibits schools from coercing parents to put their children on toxic psychiatric drugs which are on the Controlled Substances List. [Senator Kennedy is stalling S.1390 due to his support by the Pharma Cartel, and he's not even allowing it to have a hearing.]

When I made the calls as directed by the Alert below, Senator Frist's aide's voice mail was full which is a good sign indicating that a lot of people are calling to complain about Herr Bush's and Herr Kennedy's efforts to further the shadow government's eugenics agenda.

When you call, be sure to especially let the person at the White House Comments line know that you are with IAHF- International Advocates for Health Freedom, and tell them you have read Chapter 3 from the Unauthorized Biography of George Bush: Race Hygiene- Three Bush Family Alliances http://www.tarpley.net/bush3.htm

Let all the congressional offices know that you don't intend to vote in the fraudulent upcoming election because you see through the shadow governments plans having read the issues section on the Freedom Force International's website at http://www.freedomforceinternational.org/ and you're also aware that the elections are all rigged from reading http://www.ecotalk.org/Pandora'sBlackBox.htm

I had FUN making these calls- especially when several congressional aides took down all these websites I mention above which I made a point of urging THEM to read ALSO!!!

New US Mental Health Initiative Forwards Psychiatry's Brave New World

Totalitarian Rule to Diagnose at Will, Diagnostic "Screening" Process is a Con-Game to Troll for New Patients

EXTREMELY URGENT! ACTION ALERT!!!
The U.S. House of Representatives', Appropriations Committee, approved funding of the President's 'New Freedom Commission Initiative' that includes plan to screen all U.S. citizens for mental illness!

On July 14th, the House Appropriations Committee approved $20 million in new federal dollars to begin implementation of the plans set forth by the New Freedom Commission on Mental Health (NFC) to get every man, woman and child in America 'screened' for 'mental illness.'

This campaign for national mental health 'screening' will result in millions more Americans being diagnosed with fraudulent and unscientific mental 'disorders', and prescribed dangerous and deadly psychiatric drugs. Nationwide implementation of the New Freedom Commission on Mental Health's plan is the beginning of a Big Brother, 'Brave New World' should the U.S. Senate agree with House to fund this.

More details about the plan and its dangerous consequences are at bottom of this report, but here is what all of us need to do: We, you, all of us, must tell Congress and the White House:

NO MENTAL SCREENINGS FOR AMERICANS AND NO FUNDING FOR THIS PLAN!

WHO TO CALL AND WHAT TO DO:
1) Call the White House: 202-456-1111
2) Call Speaker of the House, Rep. Hastert: 202-225-2976
3) Call the Senate Leader, Senator Frist: 202-224-3344
4) Call the House Education and Workforce Committee Chairman John Boehner at 202-225-6205
5) Call the Senate Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions Committee Chairman Judd Gregg at 202-224-3324

Tell them you oppose any federal, state, or local plans for universal mental health screening. Tell them to STOP funding this New Freedom Commission on Mental Health plan in the Labor/Health and Human Services appropriations bill.

These calls are fast and brief. The aide who answers will take your message and forward it on. It's important that there are large numbers of calls, so please do this and get other to do so as well.

Additional actions to take:
1) Call your own Members of Congress (go to www.congress.org)
2) Alert your state legislators and oppose any school board initiatives to add psychiatric screening programs.
3) Support the Child Medication Act (S. 1390) currently stalled in the Senate by Senator Edward Kennedy - This legislation prohibits schools from coercing parents to place their children on psychiatric medications that are on the controlled substances list. Senator Kennedy, with large support from pharmaceutical companies, has not let this very modest proposal even receive a hearing, saying that it needs more study. Senator Kennedy (202-224-4543) as well as Senator Gregg (202-224-3324) the Committee chairman, and Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist (202-224-3344) need to hear from the public.
4) Check to see if your state has a provision in state special education law that prohibits a school district from overriding parental refusal to submit their child to a special education or mental health evaluation. If yes, alert other parents, and if not, work for one.

Thank you for yout help on this urgent matter.

MORE DETAILS:
The Commission based its entire findings on the definition of mental illness as defined by psychiatry's billing bible, the American Psychiatric Association's Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM). The methods of mental health 'screening' recommended by the New Freedom Commission are lists of arbitrary questions based on this DSM. If this 'sweeping mental health initiative' is implemented, millions more American's will certainly be diagnosed and drugged given the subjective diagnoses.

FACTS:
The New Freedom Commission on Mental Health's report states that 'mental illnesses are shockingly common,' but neglects to address or even mention the fact that there is no medical or scientific means by which to diagnose mental 'illnesses.' Psychiatrists and mental health proponents promote psychiatric 'disorders' as a disease, or an illness that can be diagnosed in the same manner as real physical illness. This is a fraud. There are no blood tests, brain scans or chemical imbalance tests to validate any mental disorder as an illness or 'disease.' With no scientific/medical criteria to substantiate these claims, anyone could be diagnosed as mentally ill based solely on a checklist of behaviors.

The DSM contains hundreds of psychiatric mental 'disorders' which are a list of behavioral symptoms that are literally voted into existence and inserted into the DSM. Such diagnoses include 'Caffeine-Related Disorder,' 'Mathematics Disorder,' 'Disorder of Written Expression,' and the all-encompassing 'Phase of Life Problem.' These 'disorders' are simply a classification of symptoms that are drastically different from, and foreign to, anything in medicine.

The New Freedom Commission is blatantly promoting the coercive and manipulative tactics that have led to millions of children being falsely labeled with mental disorders in our public schools. Schools have become mental health clinics where children are diagnosed based on subjective questionnaires, instead of given proven educational solutions. This fact was substantiated by a report from the President's Commission on Excellence in Special Education, which found that 2.4 million children had been diagnosed with mental 'disorders' and placed in Special Education, when in fact these children had simply not been taught to read.

The issue of coerced child drugging in public schools has become so prevalent that the U.S. House of Representatives passed the Child Medication Safety Act in May 2003, to prevent schools from forcing a parent to drug their child as a condition of attending school.

Due to psychiatric influence, parents have been reported to Child Protective Services and charged with medical neglect for refusing to give their child a psychiatric drug, such as those currently under investigation for causing suicidal reactions. Parents have been charged with 'medical neglect' for refusing psychiatric treatment - despite the fact that there is no scientific proof that there is anything medically wrong with the child.

In a recent report by Allen Jones, a former investigator in the Pennsylvania Office of Inspector General (OIG), Bureau of Special Investigations, condemning the New Freedom Commission (NFC), he states, "Despite a nearly 500% increase in American children being prescribed mental health drugs during the past 6 years, the New Freedom Commission on Mental Health found that not enough adolescents are benefiting from mental health treatment. The NFC recommendations prominently call for mandatory mental health screening for all high school students, with follow-up 'treatment' as required - this means more kids on mind-altering and potentially lethal psychiatric drugs."

COMMENTARY
According to the British Medical Journal, a sweeping U.S. mental health initiative will be unveiled in July which proposes to screen every man, woman and child in America for mental 'illness.' The initiative was prompted by a March 2004 progress report put out by The New Freedom Commission on Mental Health, a commission appointed by President George W. Bush and directed to advise the President on methods of improving the U.S. mental health system.

The progress report, entitled the New Freedom Initiative, makes it apparent that the Commission failed in its duty, and failed to advise the President on the real crisis in mental health - the psychiatric drugging of millions of Americans for spurious mental disorders, which have no scientific or medical validity. Amidst broad public concern that many of the antidepressants being prescribed to Americans are under federal investigation for causing suicidal reactions, the Commission's campaign for national mental health 'screening' - which will result in millions more Americans being prescribed these psychiatric drugs-is highly alarming and merits close inspection as to motives.

Here are the facts:

The New Freedom Commission on Mental Health's report states that "mental illnesses are shockingly common," but neglects to address or even mention the fact that there is no medical or scientific means by which to diagnose mental 'illnesses.' Psychiatrists and mental health proponents promote psychiatric 'disorders' as a disease, or an illness that can be diagnosed in the same manner as real physical illness. This is a fraud. There are no blood tests, brain scans or chemical imbalance tests to validate any mental disorder as an illness or 'disease.' With no scientific/medical criteria to substantiate these claims, anyone could be diagnosed as mentally ill based solely on a checklist of behaviors.

The Commission based its entire findings on the definition of mental illness as defined by psychiatry's billing bible, the American Psychiatric Association's Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM). The DSM contains hundreds of psychiatric mental 'disorders' which are a list of behavioral symptoms that are literally voted into existence and inserted into the DSM. Such diagnoses include "Caffeine-Related Disorder, Mathematics Disorder, Disorder of Written Expression," and the all-encompassing "Phase of Life Problem." These 'disorders' are simply a classification of symptoms that are drastically different from, and foreign to, anything in medicine.
To give an example of this so-called science, consider the following mental 'disorder' taken directly out of the DSM:

Billing Code Number 313.9
"Disorder of Infancy, Childhood, or Adolescents, Not Otherwise Specified"
(The entire diagnostic criteria listed in the DSM for this category is as follows)

"This category is a residual category for disorders with onset in infancy, childhood, or adolescents that do not meet criteria for any specific disorder in the Classification."

The methods of mental health 'screening' recommended by the New Freedom Commission are lists of arbitrary questions based on this DSM. If this "sweeping mental health initiative" is implemented, millions more American's will certainly be diagnosed and drugged given the subjective diagnoses.
Antidepressants are currently under federal investigation for causing suicidal reactions in patients. Between 1995 and 1999, the use of antidepressants for 7-to 12-year-olds increased 151% and 580% for children under six, with some as young as five committing suicide.

The New Freedom Commission is blatantly promoting the coercive and manipulative tactics that have led to millions of children being falsely labeled with mental disorders in our public schools. Schools have become mental health clinics where children are diagnosed based on subjective questionnaires, instead of given proven educational solutions. This fact was substantiated by a report from the President's Commission on Excellence in Special Education, which found that 2.4 million children had been diagnosed with mental 'disorders' and placed in Special Education, when in fact these children had simply not been taught to read.

The issue of coerced child drugging in public schools has become so prevalent that the U.S. House of Representatives passed the Child Medication Safety Act in May 2003, to prevent schools from forcing a parent to drug their child as a condition of attending school.

Due to psychiatric influence, parents have been reported to Child Protective Services and charged with medical neglect for refusing to give their child a psychiatric drug, such as those currently under investigation for causing suicidal reactions. Parents have been charged with 'medical neglect' for refusing psychiatric treatment - despite the fact that there is no scientific proof that there is anything medically wrong with the child.

The NFC recommendations prominently call for mandatory mental health screening for all high school students, with follow-up 'treatment' as required - this means more kids on mind-altering and potentially lethal psychiatric drugs."
The proposed model for a psychiatric 'treatment' plan recommended by the New Freedom Commission on Mental Health to be implemented on a nationwide basis is the "Texas Medical Algorithm Project" (TMAP).

In an extensive report (http://psychrights.org/Drugs/AllenJonesTMAPJanuary20.pdf)
Allen Jones reports that TMAP was funded by many of the manufacturers of the same antidepressant drugs that are currently under federal investigation. Coincidentally, these drugs are also the recommended 'treatment.' Also, some members of the New Freedom Commission have served on advisory boards for these same pharmaceutical companies, while other members have direct ties to TMAP.

In describing TMAP, Jones states, "The industry needed to create an aura of legitimacy and a body of favorable data to advance its marketing aims."

"TMAP arose during a period of decreased Food and Drug Administration (FDA) oversight and vastly increased sophistication in pharmaceutical industry marketing practices. These practices aggressively pursued favorable public and professional 'opinion' through media promotion, and biased reporting of drug trial results."

Jones estimates that if TMAP were implemented nationwide, the annual costs to the Medicaid programs would be approximately 3.7 billion dollars per year to treat one psychiatric disorder alone. That is over ten million dollars per day just in Medicaid expenditures.

Summary:
The vested interests of the President's New Freedom Commission in forwarding the mental health industry agenda is apparent, it increases the psychiatric industry's reach into society, and supports a multi billion dollar mental health industry. Of the 22 members of the Commission, 13 are either on or have been on mental health boards or associations which set mental health policy at the state or federal level, 11 were associated in some way with the implementation of the Texas Medical Algorithm Program (TMAP) in their states, four are psychiatrists and three are psychologists.

The U.S. Government must not support mandatory mental health screenings, or the increase of subjective psychiatric diagnosis of Americans requiring dangerous psychiatric drugs and other harmful treatments. In the 1950's, on the heels of the McCarthy era, psychiatric vested interests introduced a federal bill (H.R. 6376) which called for psychiatric facilities to be built in Alaska, and would have empowered any peace officer to involuntarily commit any individual to psychiatric care - without recourse. The person would then be shipped off to Alaska for mandatory confinement and 'treatment.'

The bill had already passed the House of Representatives before the grassroots efforts of thousands of alarmed citizens helped to defeat the bill in the Senate.

Now Americans must again act to protect their rights. Before it's too late. If this "sweeping mental health initiative" occurs, it will be the first step towards A Brave New World, where ultimate control would belong to the mental health industry. Anyone could be diagnosed as 'mentally ill.' Given the fact that there is no medical or scientific proof needed to make a diagnosis, how will anyone be able to prove that they aren't 'mentally ill' and don't need or want to be drugged?

The first step towards this Brave New World is mandatory mental health screenings. Once all Americans are 'screened' it won't be long before psychiatry demands mandatory drugging for all their new 'patients.' And finally, if people refuse the recommended 'treatment'…, there's always Alaska.
