Wright mentioned the reasonably well known incident of the syphilis experiment conducted by the government on some black men.  (I know, I have read at least one doubter that this ever happened.)  He then said that he believes that a government that would carry this out would be capable of doing something similar with AIDS\/HIV.  He specifically did not say that he knew that the government had done so.<\/p>\n<p>In his reply, he mentioned an author of a book on the subject.

My first reaction is that this is another nut with a conspiracy theory.  However, given the behavior that I have witnessed of the media in this whole Rev.
