With the second Green Revolution well under way, the world’s food supply is slowly being transformed by a radically improvised agricultural paradigm. Genetically engineered crops have been introduced into the market without the rigorous testing that many scientists feel is required. The history is instructive: GMO=Contaminated Crops!
Rural Haitian farmers gathered in Papaye on World Environment Day 2010, many wearing straw hats reading, "Aba Monsanto = down with Monsanto"
Lowlife, Cocksucking, Motherfucking, Amerikin Capitalist punks attempt to take advantage of Starving Haitians and taint their sacred land with Monsanto’s demon seed!!
A pair of leaked cables (09MADRID482, 07PARIS4723), spanning two US presidencies, demonstrate the United States’ unwaivering push for the expansion of GMO (Genetically Modified Organism) crops; particularly that of Monsanto’s flagship European modified corn crop MON810. These cables demonstrate the interference in EU politics, to further the ends of business interests and regardless of the right of EU citizens to debate and decide. Read the rest of this entry »
The little punks over at monsanto (I can’t even be bothered to cap their name) are motivated by ONE thing – GREED. After spending MILLIONS in yet another attempt at WORLD [FOOD] DOMINATION, they SAY that Genetically Modified WHEAT is no longer on their hit-list… i wonder.
Strong rejection of GE wheat from virtually every corner of the globe once again showed the resistance to Genetically Modified foods!
There are currently over 786 million hungry people on planet Earth. And while few would deny that world hunger is one of the most important issues facing mankind today, if the solution is left to companies like Monsanto, Aventis, Dow, and DuPont, we may face even greater challenges to the security of our global ecosystem.

U.S. Troops should be risking their lives fighting Monsanto and its greedy executives, not murdering innocent civilians in Iraq – the US is using a diversion to deprive the citizens of who the real enemy of the people is.
Chemically contaminated, genetically modified foods find their way onto our tables with alarming ease, despite their unknown effects upon our bodies and on the natural ecosystems that have supported us until now. As an increasingly smaller number of corporations comes to control the production of world agriculture, the matter at stake is not only the potential health poisoning we may inflict on ourselves, but the dramatic and often irreversible crisis in which we place the welfare of thousands of farmers around the world.

Although Monsanto presents itself as converted to the virtues of sustainable development, behind the mask of an exemplary company, its history is full of worrying episodes that indicate a desire for market supremacy threatening food safety and the ecological balance of the planet.
One corporation’s attempt to take over the world
Monsanto is the world leader in genetically modified organisms (GMOs), as well as one of the most controversial corporations in industrial history.
This century-old empire has created some of the most toxic products ever sold, including polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and the herbicide Agent Orange.
Based on a painstaking investigation, the newly released documentary film - “The World According to Monsanto” puts together the pieces of the company’s history, calling on hitherto unpublished documents and numerous first-hand accounts.
"The greatest evil is not done in those sordid dens of evil that Dickens loved to paint ... but is conceived and ordered ( moved, seconded carried and minuted ) in clear, carpeted, warmed, well-lighted offices, by quiet men with white collars and cut fingernails and smooth-shaven cheeks who do not need to raise their voices"

"You are talking to a leftist. I believe in the redistribution of wealth and power in the world. I believe in universal hospital care for everyone. I believe that we should not have a single homeless person in the richest country in the world. And I believe that we should not have a C.I.A. that goes around overwhelming governments and assassinating political leaders, working for tight oligarchies around the world to protect the tight oligarchy here at home."
