There is another possibility, that Malcolm Simons was not the genius of junk, and his ideas were not particularly novel, even back in the 1980s. Certainly, that’s how Sir John Sulston, watching the film that day, reacted.
“It just doesn’t ring true to me. We knew that all that protein coding bits of genes do is produce protein. They have to have instructions to turn them on and off. Those sequences lie well outside the protein coding sequences, sometimes thousands-tens of thousands of spaces away–people knew about those. So in principle we knew very well that the junk DNA was not junk.”

John Sulston’s view is widely shared by geneticists. To be awarded the protection of a patent, an invention must pass three vital tests. It must be novel at the time the application is filed, it must not have been obvious to other skilled researchers, and it must have a clear utility. Professor Joe Sambrook of the Peter MacCallum Cancer Institute in Melbourne, is the author of one of the standard textbooks on human DNA. He says the idea of uses stretches of junk DNA to track genes was well established by the mid 80s.
“It’s a bit of a puzzle for me to see how you could claim that some of the things in the patent are novel, A lot of them I think are not and have been well established and almost mundane by the time the patent was filed.”

Graeme Suthers is one of Australia’s leading clinical geneticists.
“My perspective is, non-coding DNA has been around for millions of years. The techniques for analyzing it were developed over the last fifty years. The usefulness of non-coding DNA in biomedical research has been recognized for decades.”

John Mattick of Queensland University is Australia’s foremost expert on junk DNA. He believes Simons’ broad method patent should never have been granted.
“It’s very problematic of whether it’s inventive, it’s just as problematic in terms of its scope. Even if we accepted it as inventive, there’s an imbalance between the level of invention and the level of impact that this thing has, so that’s another set of issues.”

Doctor Jean-Jacques Cassiman, a prominent Belgium geneticist, had never heard of the Simons’ patents until we described them to him.

“There’s a company here in Australia which owns the suite of patents of the entire non-coding genome of every creature.” “[laughing]That’s ridiculous. That’s ridiculous, I don’t understand patent offices–who gave a patent on this if this is right?[still laughing]“

This isn’t science fiction. There are currently hundreds if not thousands of test plot of GE trees already being grown in the open around the world. My name is David Suzuki. I am by training and profession a geneticist. And for 25 years I had an active career in science, once having the largest genetics lab in Canada. I’m narrating this film because I’m concerned about the unseemly haste with which my colleagues and my peer groups seem to be ready to rush in and begin to apply ideas in this revolutionary area to apply ideas that I think are far too early to expose people either in our drugs, our foods, or out in open fields.

Large paper, agriculture, and timber corporations are pouring vast sums of money into genetically engineering trees because they believe they will be more efficient and profitable. They hope to engineer traits so that trees kill insects; trees resist toxic herbicides. Trees will have reduced lignin, the long fiber that gives rigidity to the tree and makes it difficult to manufacture paper; trees that are sterile producing no seeds, nuts, pollen, nectar, or fruit. The insertion into the cells of trees of the gene of a naturally occurring bacterium, bacillus thuringiensis, that produces BT toxin that kills insects, would cause every leaf, flower, fruit or grain of pollen of the tree to produce the insecticide. Advocates claim that this would decrease the need for applied chemical pesticides, because pests would be exterminated by eating the trees. But geneticists know from experience that using an insecticide in this fashion selects resistant insects putting the industry on a treadmill of requiring an endless string of different, often more toxic pesticide. The pesticide can’t be washed off, because it’s in every cell of the genetically engineered plant or tree. Because of this there is no specific target, and no real limit to what or who can be harmed.
Already crops genetically engineered to produce BT toxin, have unintentionally resulted in the evolution of BT resistant pests. The emergence of these superbugs have resulted in the increased use of even more toxic pesticides to try to control them.

Furthermore BT toxin is being exuded by the root systems of corn and as we will see, trees. And what this means is that that BT toxin is entering the soil system via the roots of the organism containing the toxins. Now the bacteria in the soil system is actually picking up the toxin and transferring it throughout soil bacteria in an entire ecosystem. And this BT toxin is now being expressed or produced and emitted through this bacteria in unprecedented and very unnatural amounts through soil systems. We’re also seeing evidence of this BT toxin moving through soil systems and being emitted into ground water and into surface water as well. And we’re finding in areas where BT toxins and corn are grown in high concentrations, we’re finding abnormally high amounts of BT toxin, some 3, 4, and 5 times the amount that should be in water systems.

We know that the BT toxin is leeched into the root system and we know that it alters the composition of the microbial community in the soil.

Growing evidence suggests that BT crops can induce allergies and respiratory illnesses in human beings. In a recent study, Terje Traavik, Director of the Norwegian Institute for Genecology, found evidence of diseases triggered by immune reaction to BT toxin in Philippino farm workers living in a field of genetically engineered BT producing corn. Because tree pollen can travel for hundreds of miles, genetically engineered trees could have a widespread impact on human health.

The spread of genetic materials has legal implications for land owners and for public land. Recent legal cases suggests that contaminated trees will become the property of the corporations that patented their genetically engineered genes regardless of whether those trees are on public or private land.

Aside from the dangerous ingredients many people already know about like squalene or thimerosal, one of the key ingredients used in swine flu vaccines is the diseased flesh of African Green Monkeys. This is revealed in U.S. patent No. 5911998 – Method of producing a virus vaccine from an African Green monkey kidney cell line. As this patent explains, ingredients used in the vaccine are derived from the kidneys of African Green Monkeys who ware first infected with the virus, then allowed to fester the disease, and then are killed so that their diseased organs can be used to make vaccine ingredients. This is done in a cruel inhumane “flesh factory” environment where the monkeys are subjected to a process that includes incubating said inoculated cell line to permit proliferation of said virus. The preparing a vaccine from the harvested virus. The patents for this process is held not just by the National Institutes of Health, but by another private corporation known as DynCorp.

“DynCorp and Fluor have won five year contracts to support U.S. troops buildup in Afghanistan. They beat out the current contractor KBR. Now the contracts could be worth as much as $7.5 Billion for each company.

DynCorp is a one of the top private military contractors working for the U.S. government. In addition to allegedly trafficking in under-age sex slaves in Bosnia and poisoning rural farmers in Ecuador with its aerial spraying of Colombian Coca crops, DynCorp just happens to be paid big dollars by the U.S. government to patrol the U.S. Mexico border, near where the H1N1 first swine flu virus was originally detected. DynCorps scandals also include drug traffic. DynCorp aalso happens to be in a position to recieve tremendous financial rewards from its patents covering attenuated live viral vaccine harvesting methods, as described in four key patents jointly held by DynCorp and the National Institutes of Health.

One of the key inventors in these patents now held by DynCorp was Dr. Robert H. Purcell. He’s one of the co-chiefs of the Laboratory of Infectious Diseases of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases operating under the National Institutes of Health of the U.S. government.

…U.S. government health authorities awarded over $1 Billion in swine flu vaccine contracts to pharmaceutical companies. Can you guess which company received one of the largest vaccine manufacturing contracts? Baxter Pharmaceuticals, the very same company using ingredients derived from African Green Monkeys in precisely the way described in the patents held jointly by DynCorp and the NIH. Remember, Baxter is the company that was caught inserting live viruses into vaccine materials distributed to 18 different countries.

What we’re talking about is waking up one morning and being very surprised to find that high potency therapeutically effective clinically significant nutrients are now illegal in the way that heroin is illegal. Not available with a prescription…illegal.

we have recombinant bovine growth hormone and now we can choose milk with it milk, without it butter with it; butter without it…not under Codex. Under Codex every dairy cow on the planet must be treated with Monsanto’s recombinant bovine growth hormone. Furthermore, under Codex, every animal used for food on the planet, whether it has fins feet or feathers, must be treated with subclinical antibiotics.

Codex requires…mandates that all food be irradiated. Unless it’s eaten locally and raw. All food including organic food of course. So is it organic afterwards? Well of course the organics standards incredibly are low. The organic standards allow a farmer to use veterinary drugs including growth hormones, antibiotics etc…on animals and then at his whim reclassify them as organic…

If you are still smarting from the economic collapse in 2008, you’d better buckle your seat belt Dorothy, because Economic Armageddon is coming and the MSM (main stream media) is not talking about it.

A handful of patriots are voicing the issue, but no one is listening.

There are events unfolding and some yet to unfold that will leave you wondering how you are going to survive.

The mortgage problem, the unemployment problem, the shipping problem, the Afghanistan surge problem, etc.

A Perfect storm is brewing and nobody seems to care.

Add to it, the Biden, Powell, et. al. prophetic words of an impending or potential (almost certain) “terrorist” attack and you’ve got a complete and total Collapse (with a capital C) of the economy.

We’re talking destitute Americans in the streets. No money, no food, no homes, no employment…

California which represents 1/3 of the US GDP is talking about issuing I.O.U.’s. Imagine calling your bank and saying, hey, all I have this IOU from the state, can I pay my mortgage with it?

I’m trying to connect the dots, but you need to read the information.

Hopefully you will arrive at the same conclusion before it’s too late.

Shipping rates hit zero as trade sinks

“Freight rates for containers shipped from Asia to Europe have fallen to zero for the first time since records began, underscoring the dramatic collapse in trade since the world economy buckled in October…It has spread to core trade of finished industrial goods, the lifeblood of the wold economy.” Telegraph.co.uk Jan. 15, 2009

“A report by ING yesterday said shipping activity at US ports has suddenly dived. Outbound traffic from Long Beach and Los Angeles, America’s two top ports, has fallen by 18pc year-on-year, a far more serious decline than anything seen in recent recessions.

‘This is no regular cycle slowdown, but a complete collapse in foreign demand,’ said Lindsay Coburn, ING’s trade consultant.” Telegraph.co.uk Jan. 15, 2009

If that doesn’t make you shudder, then I suggest you go back to watching American Idol, or whatever mundane task you were doing, because you just don’t get it.

It means goods are not being shipped, think empty store shelves, because that’s what is next.

Adjustable Rate Mortgage Loans

“According to Huxley Somerville, a director at Fitch Ratings, $29 billion of these loans will reset by the end of 2009 and another $67 billion in 2010. The drastic increases anticipated on each loan are expected to cause delinquencies to more than double.” Motley Fool

The Coming Tsunami

The Mortgage problems are not over yet. If “Revelation” of the Subprime mess shook the Dow from 13,028 in June to a bottom of 7,552 on Nov. 20, 2008, what kind of effect can we expect from the ARM, ALT A, Agency loans that will start resetting in 2009?

Citi exposed to $60 billion in subprime loans – may need more cash.

“I would argue that the $18.3 billion in Alt-A loans are just as suspect and dangerous to the company as the subprime loans. While many subprime loans are made to homeowners with bad credit, the Alt-A loans were made to specuvestors with little or no documentation that will be unable to afford the new mortgage payments when these Alt-A loans reset or recast in the near future.” Huliq News

And that’s just Citibank. When are Fannie & Freddie, Bank of America, Wells Fargo and others going to announce?

What about the Investment Banks that are still stuck with these loans? What about the US Government who took out interests in Fannie, Freddie and others in the bailout, or as I like to call it, the “sellout” (as in, “of America”)

And NONE of this includes commercial properties/loans. Not one word from anyone, except one person and I can’t find his information.

How much exposure do the American People have in the Commercial market? No one knows.

Unemployment at 16-year high

In December, the number of unemployed persons increased by 632,000 to 11.1 million and the unemployment rate rose to 7.2 percent. Since the start of the recession in December 2007, the number of unemployed persons has grown by 3.6 million, and the unemployment rate has risen by 2.3 percentage points. Bureau of labor statistics.

Add to that, the Federal Reserve’s audacity to deny disclosure of nearly $2 Trillion dollars. As determined by the court, and I’m paraphrasing, that (bold) We the People are not party to what the Federal Reserve (a private corporation) does with its money.

Suddenly, conspiracy theories start to play themselves out…

North American Union
Civil Unrest
Martial Law
One World Government…

Sadly, I do not have a solution. I do however subscribe to the ideas that Peter Schiff and Ron Paul and other brave patriots have stated.

*Let the economy fix itself
*Stop printing money
*Let’s return to the Gold Standard
*Merge the Fed with Treasury (an Actual Government Entity)

You’d better be ready. Start preparing and don’t get caught in the downdraft.

The fact that shipping hit Zero in Europe means you’d better start stocking up on essentials.

We conspiracists have been telling you for months.

These are my opinions.

New York, New Jersey, Michigan, MA, TN, and many other states are depleting or have depleted Unemployment funds.

States are asking the Federal Gov for a Bailout. ($1 Trillion)

Obama asked for $875 BILLION plus the $300 Billion from TARP.

“The president-elect would devote 40% of the $775 billion to give taxpayers a break, but his party is urging him to put more into roads, bridges and other projects.” L.A. Times

That’s right, Democrats don’t want you to have tax breaks, they want to give it to big companies and government to “build” our infrastructure. You know, eh hmm, their friends.

Any guesses as to who might get a lion share of the contract (s)?

Halliburton and KBR

Halliburton announced that it would relocated it’s Texas based World Headquarters from Texas to Dubai. It will still maintain a corporate US office in Texas, but the CEO is moving UAE. (ABC news 03/11/2007)

Halliburton is no longer an American company, but they will probably get the contract, along with KBR.

The Federal Reserve is Printing More Money, thereby increasing Our National Debt. If you add up all debts and liabilities, it adds to about $53 Trillion (look it up).

Yet, Executives are getting Bonuses

And Nobody is disclosing where the money is.

* AIG ‘Retention Pay’ Rises to $619 Million

* Detroit CEOs to Get $1 Per Year? Not Quite. (see story)——>

* Morgan Stanley, which has received no less than $10 billion in bailout funds, paid out $2 billion in bonuses this year, according to The New York Times.

* Goldman Sachs, another beneficiary of billions in TARP funds, reportedly rewarded some employees with $200,000 cash bonuses.

* Members of the US Congress started 2009 with a 2.8 cost of living increase ($4,700 for 535 members) which amounts to about $2.5 Million.

” ‘ All 2.7 million federal employees receive a cost of living adjustment most years, which this year has been set at 2.8 percent for members of Congress and other senior federal officials, and 3.9 percent for rank-and-file employees,’ said Congressman Mike Thompson.” Lake County News

Bank of America just got a $25 Billion infusion, on top of the $15B from October. But they still plan on FIRING 35,000 employees.

BA stock went from $38 on Oct. 1, 2008 to $7 as of Jan. 16, 2009.

Do you remember the Secret FISA meeting from Mar. 13, 2008?

What was discussed?

There are several videos, but here is the list:

1. The Imminent Collapse of the US Economy to occur sometime in Late 2008.

2. The Imminent Collapse of the US Government Finances to occur sometime in Mid 2009.

3. The Imminent possibility of Civil War inside the US as a result of the collapse.

4. The Advance Roundups of insurgent US Citizens who are likely to move against the Government.

5. The Detention of those rounded up at Rex84 camps constructed throughout the US.

6. The possibility of public retaliation against members of congress for the collapse.

7. The Location of safe facilities for members of congress and their families to reside during this massive civil unrest.

8. The Necessary and unavoidable merger of the United States with Canada and Mexico establishing the North American Union.

9. The issuance of a new currency called the Amero for all three nations as an economic solution.

Edward Jenner, a country Doctor formulated the idea of vaccination fashioned after the old country tale, that those who got cowpox, were protected from smallpox. In order to test this theory upon May 14, 1796 he removed from fluid from Sara Nelmes hand, which had cow pox lesion and injected it into the arms of James Phipps who was a healthy 8 year old boy. Later, Jenner injected the boy with small pox, when James did not come down with small pox, Jenner concluded “The cow pox protects the human constitution from the infection of small pox”. That is the entire basis upon which the entire field of vaccination grew.

It has always been about better food and better living conditions and never has it been about medical intervention.

In the united states the number of mandatory vaccine injections has risen to 36 per child. Each of these injections contains a neurotoxic such as aluminum, formaldehyde, aborted fetal tissue, animal byproducts, heavy metals, and many others. What happens to a child’s fragile immune systems when it’s overloaded with these toxins?

The United States uses more vaccines than any country in the world. We have the most highly vaccinated population, particularly the child population in the world. It projected to be a $20 billion business by the year 2020.

We are given journals to read with articles reporting of results of study’s that are primary bought and paid for by the pharmaceutical industry. We have drug reps come to our office and bring us cushy little meals, and give us a spiel about a drug which they learned in a weekend seminar, and doctors are getting this as their major source of information.

In more than 26 states there is a movement to mandate that girls as young as 11 have the Gardasil vaccine. Gardasil is the Merck produced vaccine designed to protect against 4 of over 100 strings of the human papillomavirus (HPV) virus. However, according to the lead researcher Doctor Diane Harper, of Dartmouth Medical School, “Giving it to 11 years old is a great big public experiment. It is silly to mandate vaccination of 11 and 12 year old girls. There’s not enough evidence gathered on the side effects to know that safety is not an issue”. In addition she has stated that Gardasil was never fully tested on young girls, all of the trials were with girls 15 to 25 years old, and in her personal opinion the vaccine should only be used with girls 18 and up.

They are invited into these meetings to all sit there and talk about how they can keep selling the idea to the American public that vaccines are safe. That’s why they hold so many vaccine meetings because they don’t want the immunization program to fold, because its a multibillion dollar industry.

At the same time the government tells us its safe and necessary. There’s a government program called the Nation Vaccine Injury Compensation Program, which compensates the family’s of children who were injured and killed by vaccination to the tune of $200 million a year. It’s illegal in this country to sue the pharmaceutical and the physicians for injuries caused by vaccinations, and if your child is killed or injured you have to go to the government for a government handout and compensation.

One courageous New York State physician, a lady who wanted to tell the truth about vaccination, was told that she was delusional by the very same Federal Agency, the CDC that we now know, accepted vaccine recommendations from a professional committee that over half of its members from pharmaceutical companies that made those vaccinations, and allowed for years deadly mercury toxins to be included in the 29 vaccinations that they claim our children need.

These parents have no way to take care of these kids. These drug companies just keep lying. The media will repeat their lies that there is no cause and the FDA and CDC did know. In 1999 there was a secret meeting and they decided they weren’t going to let the people know, they were going to keep it a secret.

Doctor Orenstein, on page 1 and 2, he gives his introduction, “My name is Walter Orenstein, thank all of you for coming here taking time out of your very busy schedules to spend the next day and a half with us. Those who don’t know, initial concerns were raised last summer that mercury, as methylmercury in vaccines, might exceed safe levels.” There is a very limited pharmaco-genetic data concerning methelmercury. There is very limited data on its blood levels. There is no data on its excretion. It is recognized to both cross placenta and blood brain barrier. The data on its toxicity methylmercury is sporous. It is primarily recognized as a cause to hypersensitivity. Acutely, it can cause neurological and renal toxicity including death from overdose. Then, Doctor Johnson, on page 198 of the document says, “My gut feeling, it worries me enough, forgive this personal comment but I got called out at 8 o’clock for an emergency call. My daughter in law delivered a son by c-section our first male on the line of our next generation and I do not want that grandson to get a Thimerosal containing vaccine until we know better what is going on. It will probably take a long time. In the meantime, and I know there are probably implications for this internationally. But, in the meantime, I think I want that grandson to only be given Thimerosal free vaccines.” That horrifies me. These people sat in this meeting, knowing how harmful this was, and they were able to sit there and protect their own families from the devastating effects of mercury in vaccines. Yet, they told me and the rest of America that it was ok. That’s criminal, that should not happen. These people should be held accountable for what they’ve done.

This is not Communist China, where the collective good is invoked in order to commit human rights abuses and devalue the life of the individual. This is America where we have the right to have choices and to make decisions about the health of our children and our families.

These oligarchies, the multinationals, are owned by very few people and groups. They have the kind of power today that no emperor, king or pope ever had in history. Monsanto is one of those global corporations. Very efficient, by the way, and incredibly dynamic and vital. They’re just the latest type of feudal lord.

It’s a very broad patent. It would grant, if it’s accepted worldwide, would grant Monsanto control of a significant percentage of all the pigs in the world. And here’s what’s so critical. The patent isn’t just for the pigs. It’s for the pigs offspring. So mother nature works for Monsanto’s profit. Every time pigs naturally reproduce, that is a violation of the patent that you have to pay Monsanto for.

I think there’s only one reason. It’s to make the farmers dependent on this company. It’s like what has already happened with grain or corn. People have to buy seeds exclusively from Monsanto as well as sprays, fertilizers and so on, and end up totally dependent on the company. If every time a sow or piglet leaves the pen Monsanto can charge a fee. It’s a never-ending source of income.

In some American states, farmers who feed their pigs exclusively with genetically modified corn, or soy, have noticed a mysterious drop in their stocks fertility.

When you insert a gene the DNA can rearrange, can delete genes, turn them on permanently, turn them off. It can create mutations up and down the genome. And these can create unpredicted allergies, or toxins, or new diseases, or nutritional problems.

Enjoying an inside route to the corridors of power, Monsanto was able again and again to place employees in influential positions. Through Washington’s revolving door, corporate players continually traded posts at the licensing authorities, later returning to high paid board positions at the company. In the early 1990s, a blatant scandal played out behind the scenes at the nation’s capitol. It was about nothing less than the fundamental decision on whether genetically modified organisms should be allowed to enter the food supply at all. Several FDA inspectors expressed great concern after studying the test results. The government held back the papers in which they explained their reservations, however, as described by a critical FDA expert.

We all have PCBs in our bodies. The polar bears and the penguins have PCBs… And, what has happened is in the past there were a few sites where PCBs were released, but over time they’ve gone into the air, they’ve gone into the water; they’ve transported so the whole world is now contaminated with PCBs. The issue is that many diseases are caused by PCB exposure. The one everyone knows about is cancer.

The big surprise was that Roundup has an effect on cell division. We saw very quickly that roundup affected a key process in cell division. Not the cell division mechanisms themselves, but those which control cell division. You have to understand how cells become cancerous. In the beginning all cells are benign. And then at a certain point modifications take place in the cells that make them unstable from a genetic point of view. This is the first malfunction we observed with Roundup. It is for that reason that we consider that Roundup provokes the first stages that lead to cancer. We’re careful not to say it provokes cancer, because we won’t see that cancers develop for 30 or 40 years.
It was immediately clear how important these findings were for product users especially since the tested doses were well below those which people normally use, and we said to ourselves ‘gosh we really have to let the public know about the dangers as quickly as we can. And I thought the best way to do that was to talk to my administration, but there I was shocked… very shocked, because I was told, ordered rather, not to communicate our findings due to the GMO question lurking in the background.

It seems Monsanto’s new wonder has what it takes to entice farmers, but how does it work? How can the soybean plant survive being sprayed with Roundup?

This is a soybean cell. The core of the cell contains its DNA in which the beans genetic structure is encoded. In order to create its GMOs, Monsanto breaks the species barrier using a Roundup resistant gene harvested from a bacterium. This gene is placed on microscopic particles of gold, which are fired into the soybean cells with a gene gun. The gene penetrates the DNA and creates a protein making the plant resistant to Roundup. When the herbicide is sprayed on the crop it kills all the weeds leaving the soybean plants intact. One must admit that the process is an incredible technological feat, but these soybeans engineered to withstand such a powerful herbicide are destined for our dinner plates.

Exceptional news footage actually shows George Bush Sr. visiting Monsanto’s research facility nine years before Roundup ready soybeans first sold. When George Bush Sr. toured the company’s headquarters, he was Ronald Reagan’s Vice President, and deregulation was this public administration’s watch word. The intention was to boost industry by eliminating what White House hardliners called bureaucratic hurdles, like health and environmental safety testing, which were Monsanto’s key problems. In 1988 when George Bush Sr. was elected President of the United States, Dan Quayle became the new Vice President. Four years later, he announced the American policy concerning GMOs, drafted just as Monsanto had wanted.

“We are taking this step as part of the President’s regulatory relief initiative now in its second phase. The United States is already the world leader in biotechnology, and we want to keep it that way. In 1991 alone it was a $4 billion industry. It should reach at least $50 billion by the year 2000. As long as we resist the spread of unnecessary regulation.” -Dan Quayle

He (Michael Taylor) moved over to the FDA of July, 1991. Up until that time he was at a law firm called King & Spalding. His personal clients included, not only Monsanto, but the International Food and Biotechnology Council. And he had drafted for them a proposal for how they would like to see genetically engineered foods regulated. And if you look at the proposal that was written for IFBC that was Michael Taylor’s with the final one that was published, it looks very similar.

It’s a transgenic hormone that’s injected into cows increasing dairy production by 20%. It would be an understatement to say that it had critics. Called rBGH for recombinant bovine growth hormone, Monsanto began selling it to dairy farmers in 1994 under the brand name Polilac. In 1985, Monsanto submitted Posilac to the FDA for market approval. The experts at the FDA’s Center for Veterinary Medicine reviewed the studies that the company had carried out on experimental herds. At the FDA, the veterinarian in charge of reviewing the data was Richard Burroughs. In an interview he stated that agency officials had suppressed and manipulated data.

After ten years on the market, Roundup ready soybeans account for 90% of all the soybeans grown in the U.S. In fact 70% of the food in American stores contains bioengineered elements. Unlike Europe, consumers cannot make an informed decision because GM labeling is forbidden. A direct consequence of the principle of substantial equivalence.

To preserve its corn’s diversity, Mexico has banned genetically modified crops. However due to the NAFTA free trade agreement it signed with the United States and Canada, Mexico cannot stop the massive importation of American corn, 40% of which is genetically modified. This industrial corn, as it’s called in Mexico, is highly subsidized by the U.S. government. So on local markets it costs have as much as traditional Mexican corn.

Genetic engineering is part of a total control system over our food and our agriculture. At this point, not a single crop that has been brought from them has improved the situation of farmers or the nutritional situation of the people who are hungry…If these tendencies continue not only is it going to be a total wiping out of millions of farmers, and farming and agriculture is the livelihood of the majority of humanity even now, but the wiping out of farmers will also be the wiping out of our future food security. Five companies might for four years or five years grab control over our food and agriculture. But reckless experimentation with the planets biodiversity, with our food system, with agricultural production, with ignorance and irresponsibility ensures that our food situation, for all of humanity, is in peril.

The whole issue now of any more introduction of GMOs should be stopped immediately, because we have seen what has happened with the introduction of GMO canola and GMO soybeans…how it has destroyed the indigenous seeds and pure seeds. We no longer have any pure canola seeds or soybean seeds left in Canada. It is all now contaminated.

Monsanto always said with GMOs they would now be able to feed a hungry world… And, if you look back at Monsanto’s history, to me it’s been a history of deceit and of not telling the truth. When Monsanto and other companies said ‘PCBs were safe… DDT was safe…agent orange was safe, aspartame was safe’… and after a few years everyone found out the dangers of PCBs and DDT. And now we have the same company telling us that GMOs are safe.

The most important thing to understand about genetic engineering is that it is really an attempt to say hey listen no matter how unsustainable our technologies, we’re not gonna’ change the technology to fit the natural living systems – we’re gonna change the living systems so they fit the technology. We all know how horrible factory farming is and one of the problems they have with egg laying chickens, with hens, is that they have a mothering instinct – they want to brute. And here you see one of the brain experiments genetically engineering chickens to take out the mothering instinct.

This fish, if let loose through biological pollution in natural waters, will destroy the native fish. It’s very important to understand . One is this biological contamination is very different from chemical contamination. If you have an oil spill, it will dilute over time… This is not chemical pollution. This is living pollution…biological pollution. Once these fish are released into a bay or a river you can’t recall them… In the United States we have yet to have or first law – we don’t have a single law which regulates this kind of biological pollution. It is completely unregulated. Even though its effects will be catastrophic.

The next destination on our research trip is Japan. Its a huge market for the genetic engineering industry. Monsanto pushed its way onto the market with genetically modified soy during the mid 90s. Every Japanese person eats soy and Monsanto wants a piece of the pie.

The problem is obvious. No one preparing soy in the home cooks it at 220° and for half an hour at that. Genetically modified soy should not have been approved. It is probable that the genetic modification made the protein more stable it just isn’t destroyed. For me in this failed cooking test, it says in the appears here how they did it, has a direct connection with the increased number of allergies. Monsanto’s conclusion that genetically modified food is safe is wrong, probably even criminal.
