Mandella Concert Cancelled

The much ballyhooed concert to honor Nelson Mandella has been cancelled, according to an article in Rolling Stone. (Prince was originally listed as a possible performer). Here's the link:

This is a good thing because Bono's crusade to safe African's from AIDS is mislead. There is a growing movement that believes that the whole Hiv cause AIDS idea is very flawed to say the least. I suggest if you want to learn more to do so. Its is a real eye opener.

Why would they cancel the concert when they planned to have every popular performer from the last 30 years play there? I think even Elvis and Buddy Holly were listed as "possible" to appear.

LOL..Don't believe the hype!

Even if the concert was on, Prince wouldn't go anyway

Terry D...
40 million people have AIDS in Africa right now.
I wouldnt try going around saying it was trivial if I were you.

Freaker- absolutely right!
Terry D the point is there are
millions of people in Africa with terrible disease, and the drug companies won't give free or cheap drugs to them...
and we as the rest of the world don't really give a damn

With all due respect the so-called "AIDS drugs" often produce most of the symptoms of AIDS itself. There is no epidemic in Africa just media hype and manipulating statistics ... The whole thing is terrible racists and based on racists myths and ideas. I suggest rather than asking me to be silent or judging me you inform yourself of the vast volume of information on the subject.

Peace and question everything!
