The basic Eugenicists’ tenet “Control the Food Supply, and We Control the People,” is still being played out in a multi-layered fog of lies and deceptions.
Greenpeace’s anti-GMO campaign, for example, is very laudable if only the group is not allied with the Corporatists in other global issues, e.g. nuclear power. The group’s anti-nuke activities lump everything nuclear into the bad basket together with fossil fuels. Advocating strongly for solar and wind power, yet without ever mentioning black budgeted highly efficient energy systems that are able to power themselves without fossil fuel inputs, or the non-radioactive nuclear fusion-fission hybrid technology, that’s not real activism at all.
In food production, Greenpeace has been attacked for its anti-GMO and anti-Science stance by 200 Nobel laureates. For the discerning, both sides are only serving the same genocidal agenda by not offering and demonstrating better alternatives to the current industrialized farming methods.
If at all, they could only tell us half of the story because all of these high profile but shallow activists are mere pressure valves put in place to relieve stress from the whole damned system. Otherwise, the slavery system would collapse catastrophically for the globalists.
This is where we are right now. The increasing awakening of the masses must be retarded on its track by all means necessary. High profile pseudo resistance movement must be organized to “speak for the people.” so that the latter could stay on the sidelines, and allow the “activists” do the protesting for them, as they have always been all this time.
Very few Americans realize there exists a large network of far left philanthropists and foundations in America dedicated to destroying the American way of life, our Christian-based culture and our free enterprise system. They seek to remove America from its constitutional foundations and move it toward a European-style socialism. Much of this effort is coordinated by a little known group called the Tides Foundation and its related group, the Tides Center.
… Another Tides recipient is Greenpeace which, despite its friendly-sounding name, is best known for its illegal actions at sea that often endanger humans. Greenpeace received $250,000 from Tides.
Anti-Anti-Terrorist groups
The Tides entities fund the Iraq Peace Fund and the Peace Strategies Fund, which in turn have funded much of the anti-war movement and led to the creation of the hysterical anti-war group MoveOn.org and the radical website Indymedia. The later group has coordinated radical activists worldwide to fight American foreign policy interests.
The Tides Foundation also funded the anti-war group United for Peace and Justice, headed by longtime Communist Party member and pro-Castro apologist Leslie Cagan. Indeed, when UFPJ co-founder Medea Benjamin visited Cuba, she stated that the contrast between Cuba and America “made it seem like I died and went to heaven.” Tides has announced that it supports “nonviolent responses to terrorism,” as if that will have any effect whatsoever on the agenda of the terrorists. This attitude is dangerously naïve.
In line with this, the corporate globalists are also trying to consolidate their resources amidst their dwindling financial resource due to the aggressive move from the East to establish their own economic system that is based on Good Science, asset-based financial system, and mutual cooperation that abhors all forms of geopolitical and military aggression.
This Asian led major geopolitical moves resulted in the deliberate shaming of the Obama delegation right on China’s doorsteps during the recently concluded G20 Summit, ASEAN Summit and other related summits that followed.

The same defeated corporate globalists are now turning on against its own people to sustain themselves at the top of their own pyramid.
German chemicals and pharma giant Bayer AG BAYRY -1.16% said Wednesday it had won over Monsanto’s MON -0.74% management with a $128 per share offer in cash, worth about $66 billion including debt, to take over the global seed market leader.
The companies have agreed on an antitrust break fee of $2 billion and the deal is expected to be closed by the end of 2017, the German group said in a statement.
Bayer intends to finance the transaction with a combination of debt and equity. The equity component of approximately $19 billion is expected to be raised through mandatory convertible bonds and a rights issue, it added.

Bayer is one of three offshoots from the dreaded IG Farben poison manufacturer delivering the deadly Xyklon B gas to exterminate millions of Christians and Muslims alike in Europe, and millions more in Asia during the last 30-year war which preceded the Cold War. A total of 120 million died then.
New methods of war are now being fought against “inclusive targets”. Such BayerSanto “marriage in hell” merger will only result to increasing costs of food in the United States and Europe, because until now all that the population could do is protest, protest and protest some more.
The two companies, though, say the deal will be a boon to the agricultural industry — helping to feed an expanding population in a sustainable way — as well as farmers.
In response to potential antitrust concerns, the companies said they will work “diligently” with regulators to propel the deal forward, and that Bayer would pay $2 billion as an antitrust breakup fee, “reaffirming its confidence that it will obtain the necessary regulatory approvals.”
Still, experts were much less positive about the merger.
“The consolidation and driving out of smaller competitors, and controlling the marketplace and raising prices of seeds and pesticides for farmers worldwide is going to be a real shock to the food system,” said Robert Lawrence, a Johns Hopkins School of Medicine professor and the founding director of the Center for a Liveable Future.
Since the corporatists are using cultic science authority as the bases of their GMO arguments, we can also present a group of scientists who have not lost their Common Sense, and have preserved their complete independence from those corporate institutions until now.
The Union of Latin American Scientists Committed to Society and Nature (UCCSN-AL) recently released a letter of their own denouncing the one produced by the Nobel laureates.
The scientists stated:
[Transgenesis] cannot be considered an advanced science anymore because it is based on fallacious and anachronistic assumptions. Its defenders have oversimplified the scientific rationale behind GMOs to the point that the technology cannot be considered valid anymore: they have discarded rigorous science. The lack of scientific ground that justifies GMOs is also the reason why its promoters deny complex systems of knowledge, such as indigenous peoples’ cultures and livelihoods. Transgenic technology is the geopolitical instrument for colonial domination of our time.
The UCCSN-AL also points out that GMOs are not necessary to feed the world’s population.
The four GM crops that are marketed massively are mainly intended for the production of biofuels and animal feed for poultry, pork and beef cattle industries: activities that consume more than 65% of the GM corn and soybean produced in the few countries that grow them, a very inefficient system from an energy point of view of agricultural production. Around these crops there is an oligopoly of transnational corporations that control the production of seeds and grains; the storage, transportation and marketing of genetically modified commodities; and the mass production of animals, which are increasingly concentrated in fewer hands. In this regard, it is clear that this model does not contribute to the goal of feeding the world, but instead competes with and overpowers traditional food production…
The problem of lack of food is not caused by low production, but by the way the world food system is designed. It has undermined the traditional systems of food production, and therefore nutrition and food sovereignty of peoples.
The scientists also question, as have many others, the claims that GMOs produce higher yields.
We question the promises made by GMOs proponents that these crops would have higher yields. Each of the countries in the Southern Cone where GM soybean is grown has different performance. The highest yields are registered in Brazil and Argentina, where the national agricultural research centres have dedicated many years to conventional breeding of this crop. On the other hand, in Ecuador, a GM free country, soybean yields are higher than in Bolivia and Paraguay.
Another example is canola or rapeseed. In Canada (where they mainly use GM seeds), yield averages between 1986 and 2010 were 1,459 kg/ha, whereas in Western Europe, where conventional seeds are used, the average yield in the same period was 3,188 kg/ha.
“Ecosystems are complex and dynamic, involving the interaction of multiple factors,” the group says.
In terms of the risks to human health, UCCSN-AL states:
Scientists who defend the safety of GM crops and food argue that it has been consistently found that GMOs are as safe (or more) than the crops obtained with any other breeding methods; that they do not produce environmental impacts and that even they increase global biodiversity. Despite these statements being repeatedly invoked by GM proponents, they are not backed by serious scientific research, and, moreover, the claims are never referenced”. In contrast, in the last years, scientific evidence supported by independent researchers has grown, showing the environmental and human health problems related with cultivation and consumption of GMOs.
UCCSN-AL also points out the health risks posed to humans of the heavy amounts of herbicide sprayed on herbicide-tolerant crops.
In the analysis of GM crops we must consider the technological package to which these crops are inextricably associated. The majority of GM crops are resistant to herbicides, mainly the questioned glyphosate. In Latin America (the region with the fastest increase of GM crop acreage), the negative impacts on human communities settled in the areas where these crops are grown are undoubted.
In the last decade, the health conditions of these populations has been depressed, there has been a significant increase of cancer, congenital malformations, genetic damage, autoimmune diseases and other health issues, associated with the pesticides and the practices that are part of the technological package of GM cultivation. It is clear that to evaluate the impacts of this technology it is impossible to analyse GM seeds individually when the main genetic modification is to make the plant resistant to a herbicide. In the environment it has been shown that water bodies are contaminated and that pollinators are declining, as well as other beneficial species that ensure the health of the soil and the local biodiversity.
Furthermore, there are millions of hectares planted with GM seeds containing a gene that
allows them to synthesize the Bt toxin, an insecticide that is produced in the GM plant, which has been incorporated to control Lepidoptera larvae. However, it has been shown that this toxin indiscriminately affects different species of insects, reducing their biodiversity and damaging human health of those who are in contact with the toxin.
“Every day there is more medical, scientific and agronomic evidence showing the impacts, risks, and uncertainties of this irrational model of production, both for the health of rural workers, peasants and farmers, as well as for these rural residents and consumers of foods produced with this technology,” the scientists add.
On the issue of golden rice, specifically, UCCSN-AL says that golden rice was originally designed “as a generic drug for malnourished children in ‘poor countries,’” and that golden rice is not even available because the groups and individuals promoting it have been unable to “reach a workable formulation for distribution.”
As GM Watch writes, “In fact the rice is not even ready for commercial production, let alone distribution, as it has failed to give sufficiently high yields in the field, as the IRRI, the body responsible for rolling out the crop, has admitted.”
On golden rice, UCCSN-AL has this to say:
The nutritional problems of a population are not related with the lack of a specific nutrient (in this case… pro-vitamin A), but with the general conditions of poverty and the loss of food sovereignty that has forced thousands of farmers communities to leave their lands or to be subordinated to agribusiness, whose only priority is to meet their voracious need to increase profits through monoculture, agroindustry and agro-export by occupying lands that used to be devoted to safe and nutritious food production. To believe that malnutrition problems will be overcome through bio-fortified genetically modified food is to ignore this reality.
In order to meet the golden rice demand, millions of hectares will need to be planted in tropical and subtropical areas, and will need to expand over territories that today are use to grow food sovereignty crops, which will face the typical problems associated with large-scale monoculture. In addition, hundreds of plant species rich in pro-vitamin A, known, gathered or cultivated for a long time by local communities in the entire world will be affected. Each community can and must choose, in a sovereign way, what to eat, according to their cultural preferences and traditions, and how to meet their nutritional needs.
Who will benefit from golden rice? As with other GM crops, golden rice will also be controlled by large agribusiness companies. The nutritional scheme based in golden rice will involve the control of agribusiness over the whole value chain: from seed to distribution. Given the fact that it is a global trend to forbid farmers to save their seeds, even if golden rice will be patent-free, the seed will be corporately controlled. What would happen then with traditional rice producers and with the thousands of peasant traditional varieties of rice that they hold?
Regarding trade, in many countries, rice producers do not have any influence in price fixation. Nationally, the price is set by local powerful groups that control both processing and distribution of rice. Internationally, the price is set at the Bangkok and Chicago Stock Exchange. The international trade of golden rice would be controlled by the same economic groups that control other GM commodities. Accordingly, golden rice will not generate food sovereignty and, on the contrary, it will increase dependence for both producers and consumers.
All the funds that would be spent in the promotion and implementation of ‘golden rice’ crops around the world could be used in the promotion of diversified crops, to promote and strengthen local and regional nutrition and food sovereignty, as well as in the recovery and adoption of healthy eating habits.
UCCSN-AL boldly questions the methodology and independence of the Nobel Prize winners that signed the letter attacking Greenpeace.
The science that is promoted by the Nobel Prize Laureates that signed the letter has been developed in a context dominated by a reductionist techno-science, that is being developed without social control, generating environmental problems and health impacts, often with catastrophic and irreversible effects.
Although formally the Nobel Prize aims to recognize and reward people who have done outstanding research, invented revolutionary techniques, or have made notable contributions to society in the areas of Medicine and Physiology (and in other fields), it has supported scientific research that encourages corporate control on productive processes, and has facilitated the privatization of knowledge and life. In the field of biotechnology, the Nobel Prize has recognised waves of scientific innovations that led to the development of genetic engineering, at the expense of technologies with wider application which are not controlled by oligopolies of transnational corporations. Several of them are signatories of the letter. Their activities have been the key to developing the biotechnology industry. Several still hold commercial interest in this area, or are involving in research funding by the industry. For example, one of the promoters of the letter, Phillip A. Sharp, is co-founder of Biogen (now Biogen Idec) Inc. and Alnylam Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (a pharmaceutical company that develops drugs based on RNAi).
The UCCSN-AL also points out that the June letter was not the first time Nobel laureates have defended GMOs in a public statement.
Some years ago, a similar declaration was promoted by Norman Borlaug, father of the Green Revolution (1970 Nobel Prize), who saw a second Green Revolution in agrobiotechnology, without making any critical analysis of the impacts caused by the first one.
Previously, Paul Hermann Müller was awarded with the Nobel Prize in Physiology and Medicine for the discovery of DDT as a contact poison of high efficiency against many arthropods. Ironically, due to the dramatic effects of DDT on the environment and on human health, the scientific work and citizen mobilization against pesticides began, a struggle that still continues.
Now the signatories of this letter in defence of GMOs and golden rice privilege the paradigm of corporations that genetic uniformity is needed to raise production. This is particularly serious because we know that the genetic diversity is essential to deal with hunger and is the only alternative to climate change.
With this background we wonder if the opinion of Nobel Prize laureate scientists necessarily is an irrefutable, neutral and objective opinion. The background presented here, and the lack of robust and well-founded arguments of the letter, show that this is not the case.
A[t] UCCSN-AL we believe that decision-making process on the adoption of new technologies, such as those that make possible GM crops, and others that are emerging (e.g. nanotechnology, synthetic biology and geo-engineering), should not only involve the so-called hard scientists, but it must incorporate the opinion of other fields of knowledge, as well as the opinion of social movements, civil society organizations, and of legitimate representatives of different social groups. Because scientific and technological knowledge is always part of a social process, it is crossed by tensions, conflicts and contradictory interests. Science is never neutral, absolute or definitive; it is always susceptible to changes and revisions, and must be subject to permanent debate.
UCCSN-Al concludes its statement by writing:
Scientific work must be developed with ethical responsibility and it must be committed to nature and society, and because of that, we reject the concepts stated in the letter and denounce the genocidal role of industrial farming based on GM crops, and we stress the need to defend, promote, and multiply the modes of food production that were culturally developed by the peoples of our region, and therefore are vital to ensure autonomy, environmental sustainability, safety and food sovereignty.
Common sense dictates that to eliminate the disease, parasites must be removed completely. Doing so otherwise will only result to endless recurrence of the same disease.
Street protests can only do as much. The first generation of protesters have all gone, but the social parasites are still here.
Is it, therefore, too much to ask that we exterminate all of these parasites in corporate boardrooms, and those behind the facade, for good before they could exterminate us completely instead?
Please spare us from those cultic New Age bullshit. Real freedom is won, not with deep meditation, but only with a direct and decisive action against the tyrants.
For those in despair, just look to the East where the sun is shining brighter for all of us.
