A Question to the Prime Minister of Australia, all State Premiers and Territories' Heads of State

by Glen S.R. Walker

The following question is a reasonable request under a democratic state of Government and to those who voted to force all Australians to daily dose themselves with fluoridated water.

Is compulsory artificial fluoridation of our drinking water supplies constitutionally legal, unquestionably safe for every Australian citizen, and not one person will be harmed?

Replies under personal signatures to the above will be welcome and space available to publish your scientific evidence.

Such drastic politically forced ingestion of poisonous fluoride requires sound scientific evidence of a high scientific standard, published in relative world professional journals opened to public scrutiny.

The usual general unscientific, run of the mill, fluoridation propaganda is unacceptable, as ubiquitously promoted throughout Australia by Governments and their Health Departments.

Are the claims of fluoridation scientifically honest, are these claims actually the results of original medical scientific research into safety and effectiveness and documented accordingly? Please quote documentation.

Medical science may be too difficult for politicians, but just plain commonsense should (?) get through and reading the following quotation, we hope, might help.

"No physician in his right senses would prescribe for someone he has never met, whose medical history he does not know, a substance which is intended to create bodily change, with the advice: 'Take as much as you like, but you will take it for the rest of your life, because some people say that it can reduce tooth decay in children'." (Dr. Peter Mansfield, Director, Templegarth Trust, Birmingham, U.K.)

If some Australian support is required, we publish the following statements for your official perusal.

Canberra, Federal Parliament, Hansard 16th April, 1964: Mr James Killen said:

"I am not ashamed to say, in this company, that I believe, and believe passionately, that it is not the duty of the State to dose its people like cattle."

On the same day in that Parliament debate, Dr. Gibbs said (Hansard):

"It is my deeply rooted belief that no measure (fluoridation) should be adopted in the name of public health unless there is complete certainty that the measure (fluoridation) is completely innocuous.

Not one paper listed in the Index Medicus conclusively proves the innocuousness of fluoride."

Perhaps by bringing the matter up to this present day, the following statement by Don Wilson, Chairman, Australian Dental Association, Oral Health Education Chairman, is reported in the West Australian Sunday Times, April 2002:

"Many parents had been lulled into a false sense of security about the protection of fluoridated water."

The Australian Labor Party's Platform completely endorses and confirms artificial fluoridation of all drinking water supplies. They announced on 19th January, 2004 (Herald Sun):

"They will unveil a $400 million dental drive to reduce waiting lists of up to 250,000 Victorians suffering teeth problems." (Melbourne fluoridated 1977)

"The 4 year programme will 'initially focus on the backlog of elderly and poorer patients waiting for public dental care."

However, we now enter the 2004 Australian dental miracle, relating to the 500,000 people waiting 5 years for dental treatment.

Within 12 days, the Australian people's teeth improved to such a degree that at the Labor Party's National Convention they voted a platform of $300 million, a reduction of 20% or $100 million, to cure the dental problems of 500,000 Australian people.

That seems to confuse with the dental and Government adamant claims that fluoridation is especially and remarkably responsible for great benefits to poorer and underprivileged people and the elderly in the protection of their teeth from decay by the fluoride in their drinking water.

Waiting lists have ballooned with at least 500,000 Australians now waiting for up to 5 years to see a dentist.

There should be an official Government independent inquiry into these dental facts, officially quoted, because they are quite contrary to all the Government published promises and claims to the Australian people made in our parliaments, the highest authority in the country.

The inquiry to include scientific investigation into the similar official claims by Australian Parliaments, Health Departments, Ministers of Health, A.M.A., A.D.A., also the published endorsers, and Universities throughout the Commonwealth.

The claimed effectiveness of fluoridation and the intellectually dishonest scientific comparisons between riuondated and non-fluoridated areas should be urgently investigated.

The effectiveness of fluoridation is rather like children playing games with blocks. They build models of grandeur that collapse when tested for durability and design.

Even a simpleton could understand the difference between dental facts and misleading dental myths.

Example

Victorian Parliament 1973 (Hansard):

The Minister of Health stated that

"If fluoridation was not introduced, future politicians, legislators and the people would have no teeth."

Simple commonsense (not available in the Parliament) deduction of the Minister's medical claim, was not challenged in the Parliament and allowed to remain cast in stone, mislead people into believing al unfluoridated communities are/Will be toothless.

That is a scientific scandalous statement by a Minister of Health but the Parliament representing the people accepted it without question. Fooling politicians is child's play.

At that day in 1973, and since, the capital of Queensland, the City of Brisbane, has never been fluoridated and their children have quality teeth equal to fluoridated capital cities of Australia.

The Minister's scientific (?), intellectual (?), political prognostic statement to Victorian people, relative to fluoridation's drastic need, is devoid of one skerrick of honest dental science, but it helped the introduction of compulsory artificial fluoridation.

For a scientific and medical (?) reason, you are forced to drink the fluoride shandy, 24 hours of every day, with the compliments of your politician and his/her political party.

Politicians know only too well that only 4 per cent of populations drink fluoridated water, meaning the importance of understanding that 96 per cent of the world population are free of this daily compulsory drugging with unregistered and unlicenced fluoride chemicals, collected as toxic pollutants from inside exhaust chimneys of fertiliser factories.

Europe, the base of scientifically advanced countries, does not use the fluoride toxic waste in their drinking water supplies and their children have better teeth than in fluoridated countries.

Some European countries "experimented" with fluoridation, but all have now rejected the process in the same manner as Switzerland, the last European country to reject fluoridation after 41 years experimentation.

The city of Basel, Switzerland, the only city fluoridated, officially stopped the process 9th April, 2003, because:

"The preventative effect of fluoridation of drinking water could not be proved by any study, in spite of fluoridation, dental caries have been on the increase. The danger of dental fluorosis has been played down. The fluoridation of drinking water is particularly problematic in the case of young children and babies."

Some governments representing their people are waking up to the dangers of fluoridation.

The Belgium Minister of Health announced, July 2002, its Government has:

"Taken fluoride tablets, fluoride drops, fluoride chewing gum all off the Belgium market, all claimed to be the crown jewels of dentistry, but they are poisonous and hold great risk for physical and often psychological harm."

The fluoride Report by UNICEF (United Nations International Childrens Emergency Fund 2001) complained that "some governments did not sufficiently realise how damaging fluoride is - especially for children who have more tender organisms than adults and are less able to eliminate fluoride."

Has there been documented evidence of any harm from fluorides and fluoridation?

The question is of grave medical importance, because the evidence is seen every day in children with dental fluorosis or commonly called "mottled teeth".

Dental fluorosis can only be caused by fluoride, a simple understanding, but the fluoride promoters attempt to mislead people into believing it can be caused by many other reasons. A case of dishonest cover-up.

However disturbing is the sight of mottled teeth, a more important medical and government scandal emanates from the fact that no scientific medical action is taken into examining the probable body damage apart from fluoride killing the cells in children's tooth enamel.

Dental fluorosis is caused by fluoride killing cells in tooth enamel. It follows by scientific reasoning that it would be impossible for that poison action, strong enough to kill cells in teeth, to be confined only to the mouth, when in fact the fluoride is channelled throughout the whole body.

There are no Australian short or long-term studies on the health of children with dental fluorosis, whereas evidence is mounting relative to even IQ of children so affected, documented in countries with affected children.

The obvious is ignored, even though the government spends billions of our dollars every year on other health matters but ignoring problems associated with the only common health denominator in the country through the water supply, pumped into every home every day.

Health laws in Australia, together with the Constitution, make compulsory artificial fluoridation illegal, not withstanding the fact that the poison fluoride chemical, sodium silicofluoride, mostly used throughout Australia for supplies, is NOT REGISTERED or LICENCED for use on humans! We await some replies.
