swine flu

The swine flu (or as they call it in Israel, Mexican flu [pigs aren't kosher]) is starting to devastate the world.  Now I am still a firm believer that supervolcanos are the number one threat to human civilization, but pandemics aren't far off.  The 1918 Spanish flu killed approximately 40 million people, or about 2.5% of the planet's human population.  Currently, the swine flu kills about 7% of the people it has infected, so it has the potential to be devestating.  Now there is a lot of speculation over what caused the outbreak.  This report out of France claims that the virus is a mix between avian, pig, and man versions of the flu virus.  This has led some people, led by former Vice-President Al Gore, to blame the outbreak on what they consider then number one threat to the US: man-bear-pig (apparently Gore claims that man-bear-pig diliberatly mutated the virus from bear to bird form to throw authorities off track).  

As much as I would like to believe Gore that man-bear-pig is the culprit, I have discovered the actual source of the virus.  It turns out that it is from hicks who live in the country.  Check out the photo below.  Its all the evidence you need (click photo for larger image).
