Intro to Video:

This stunning European documentary made available for the first time in the US, reveals several harsh consequences of genetic engineering worldwide.

A failed GM cotton crop prompts farmer suicides in India. Windborne GM canola contaminates organic and conventional farms in Canada. One farmer fights Monsanto in the Supreme Court.

A company seeks approval for giant GM salmon that may threaten the survival of the natural species. GM pigs are born with ghastly mutations. And experts reveal how inadequate testing and regulations put us at risk.

It features Vandana Shiva, Andrew Kimbrell, Percy Schmeiser and others.

Monsanto v. Schmeiser (Percy Schmeiser case in Saskatchewan, Canada)
http://www.percyschmeiser.com/
http://www.percyschmeiser.com/conflict.htm

QUOTE
"In my case, I never had anything to do with Monsanto, outside of buying chemicals. I never signed a contract. If I would go to St. Louis and contaminate their plots--destroy what they have worked on for 40 years--I think I would be put in jail and the key thrown away,"  Percy Schmeiser

Monsanto, GM Foods, Preparing for Worldwide Genetic Control
http://www.informationliberation.com/?id=22034

QUOTE
India had 120,000 varieties of rice seeds; today, no more than 50 are available. This is the result of the United States' war on genetic diversity, ably supported by scientist-criminals like MS Swaminathan. The Indian Government is to have these criminals head Agriculture Policy of India: at age 75, Swaminathan lives to lord over many "Expert Committees", including crucial ones in the Ministry of Agriculture. The deadly tentacles of this hydra-headed monster extend in many ministries of the Government of India. From early 1960s, Swaminathan has been the front of the Rockefellers, implementing their agenda with full support of the US Government.

Bush and Monsanto: Today's Pelican Brief:
http://www.alkalizeforhealth.net/Lbushmonsanto.htm


This shows the unbelieveable ties to Monsanto in the Bush Administration and in Congress. Monsanto has a direct connect to the admin. This shows you why the FDA is passing ridiculous and dangerous products to the market. It's all political people. Who cares if it's safe or not. If it makes money - WE WILL BUY OFF THE POLITICIANS TO HELP US GET IT PASSED! angry.gif


FOLKS, MANY OF YOUR POLITICIANS NEED TO BE SENT HOME IF THEY HAVEN'T AN ETHICAL BONE IN THEIR BODIES. CHECK OUT HOW YOUR REPRSENTATIVES ARE BEHIND THE SCENES, AND YOU SEE THE REAL MAN OR WOMAN. WATCH HOW THEY VOTE. IF THEY APPEAR TO BE COZYING UP TO THE LOBBYISTS, AND THE MONSANTO's IN AMERICA, THEN THEY SHOULD BE FIRED. WE NEED MEN AND WOMEN WITH A BACKBONE IN CONGRESS, SO THEY WILL DO THEIR DAMN JOBS - REPRESENTING THE PEOPLE, NOT BIG BUSINESS WHO ONLY CARES ABOUT PROFITS!

GENETICALLY MODIFIED FOODS - Experts View Regimen of Safety Tests as Adequate, but FDA's Evaluation Process Could Be Enhanced
http://www.gao.gov/new.items/d02566.pdf


Sorry, but ADEQUATE is not an acceptable evaluation when it comes to our food. Why don't you do a report on all the individuals who work in the FDA who have conflicts of interest. You can start with those who serve on the Monsanto Board, or who have come to the FDA from Monsanto, or a similar corporation with an agenda.

International Trade - Concerns Over Biotechnology Challenge US Agricultural Exports:
http://www.gao.gov/new.items/d01727.pdf

On Pg 3 - Letter to Senator Charles Grassley it says:

QUOTE
In 1996, crop varieties developed using modern biotechnology techniques, such as genetic engineering, were introduced for commercial production. These crops lowered pest management costs and enhanced yields, and by the end of the decade they had been planted on nearly 100 million acres worldwide. U.S. farmers readily embraced this technology, making the United States by far the largest producer of biotech crops.


So, farmers, is this true? I know one guy (this thread is about) who doesn't agree with this statement. There are also more in India and other countries who don't agree with this statement. Did Grassley bother to look further, or does he just take this report at its word, and the subject is over?

(See Chart on pg 19 - Agricultural Biotechnology and the U.S. Government)

(See Chart on Pg 20 - Intl Organizations Addressing Agricultural Biotechnology Issues)

(See Chart on Pg 26 - Important Dates in Biotechnology Trade)

Recombinant Bovine Growth Hormone: Alarming Tests, Unfounded Approval - The Story Behind the Rush To Bring rBGH to Market
http://www.mindfully.org/GE/RBGH-Alarming-TestsJul95.htm

QUOTE
FDA's Approval Process Was Flawed

The FDA illegally leaked proprietary information. FDA also released Rural Vermont data, making it impossible to conduct an independent investigation of what happened at UVM.

The FDA told the GAO that it did not have cow I.D. numbers, even after it had leaked them to the press.

The FDA selectively challenged nine of the cows Rural Vermont thought were rBGH-injected cows, saying they were untreated "controls." However, eight of the nine cows had lactation curves which suggest that they were rBGH-injected cows.

The FDA employed Monsanto researchers to review Monsanto research.



Now, that's an unbiased approach! rolleyes.gif

Schmeiser pleased with victory over Monsanto

In an out of court settlement finalized on March 19, 2008, Percy Schmeiser has settled his lawsuit with Monsanto. Monsanto has agreed to pay all the clean-up costs of the Roundup Ready canola that contaminated Schmeiser's fields. Also part of the agreement was that there was no gag-order on the settlement and that Monsanto could be sued again if further contamination occurred. Schmeiser believes this precedent setting agreement ensures that farmers will be entitled to reimbursement when their fields become contaminated with unwanted Roundup Ready canola or any other unwanted GMO plants.

QUOTE
This is a great victory for farmers all over the world. Now they have at least an opportunity to have some recourse on a corporation when they are contaminated.


THANK YOU, PERCY SCHMEISER FOR BEING BRAVE ENOUGH TO STAND UP TO THE CORPORATE BEASTS WHO FEEL THEY GET THE RIGHT TO DO WHATEVER THEY WISH!
