G. Edward Griffin - A World Without Cancer

Hope you don't mind me posting this here. I have no real connection to the states other than a curiosity about American culture and lifestyle. I stumbled across this film recently and felt compelled to share.

G. Edward Griffin - A World Without Cancer - The Story Of Vitamin B17

Description from Google Video:
G. Edward Griffin marshals the evidence that cancer is a deficiency disease - like scurvy or pellagra - aggravated by the lack of an essential food compound in modern man's diet. That substance is vitamin B17. In its purified form developed for cancer therapy, it is known as Laetrile. This story is not approved by orthodox medicine. The FDA, the AMA, and The American Cancer Society have labeled it fraud and quackery. Yet the evidence is clear that here, at last, is the final answer to the cancer riddle. Why has orthodox medicine waged war against this non-drug approach? The author contends that the answer is to be found, not in science, but in politics - and is based upon the hidden economic and power agenda of those who dominate the medical establishment. With billions of dollars spent each year on research, with other billions taken in on the sale of cancer-related drugs, and with fund-raising at an all-time high, there are now more people making a living from cancer than dying from it. If the solution should be found in a simple vitamin, this gigantic industry could be wiped out over night. The result is that the politics of cancer therapy is more complicated than the science

As a counterpoint:

He orginally claimed it cured cancer. No wait! It slows cancers progress and controls it. No Wait! It is a preventative.  Not just a preventative, but a vitamin that he discovered.  20 years after inventing it in the first place.  And one that none of the people who sell it can agree on the formula for it.

DH was recently talking with a Harvard cancer researcher (on a trans-Atlantic flight) who felt there would probably never be a cure for cancer, because there are so many different types.
