If you haven’t read “Portrait of An Animal Researcher” by David
Irving, visit

now. This “must read” article is truthful, intelligently written, and
one of the best assessments of the state of biomedical research
utilizing animals today.
For example, I know that this is so true:
“…the unbelievably sickening, bizarre, sadistic research which
medical animal researchers in their clean white coats engage and which
is routinely rubber stamped by the NIH and other government funding
agencies, thus robbing the public blind.”
I also agree with the following statements by David Irving:
“Linus Pauling zeroed in on the corruption when he wrote ‘Everyone
should know that most cancer research is largely a fraud, and that the
major cancer research organizations are derelict in their duties to
the people who support them.’
“That the practice of torturing innocent animals in an effort to
attend to the addictions human beings have created themselves might be
considered unethical and unjust, not to mention Mengelian, seems not
to have penetrated the consciousness of erudite, highly educated,
researchers like Carroll.”
“It could hardly be more patently unethical to slaughter animals in
cruel ways and eat them, acquire a disease in the process of digesting
and metabolizing them, and then slaughter and torture more animals to
try to find a cure for the disease caused by eating them.”
“When it comes to medical research, what else is there – eternal
dependency on a weaker animal species that cannot defend itself
against humankind’s cruelty and abuse? Surely we are capable of much,
much more. Isn’t it time we left our primitive views behind and began
reaching for a higher destiny?”
As you “make the connection” you can’t help but come to the
conclusion that going vegan is the best solution for the well-being of
humans, animals, and the earth.
