There are some new posts on the net about Gulf War Syndrome, linking it to the Anthrax vaccines given to the soldiers.

This vaccine back then was experimental, and had squalene in it.
This adjuvant has shown autoimmune damage in animals and is still banned by the FDA here for that reason. (But the military is exempt).

A small number of soldiers were vaccinated and at the last moment were not deployed to Iraq then, but stayed in US. They also developed the Syndrome!

While this is still controversial...I tend to think it is a vaccine autoimmune stimulated disorder.

You can search this and find many hits on this subject like this:

Vaccines are NOT safe as we all think. Some of the H1N1 allowed into the US last fall (because we didn't have enough of non-squalene type) had this adjuvant in them.

There are some videos on YouTube with reputable doctors explaining how squalene causes autoimmune disease when INJECTED into the body.
