Monsanto and Hillary Clinton's first redemptive act as Secretary of State

How many more people have to die! This is a crime. It's a sickness where money and greed are more important than human life. History continues to repeat itself.

Excellent story Jan. Unfortunately a violent revolution is the only way to free the worlds people of these parasidic corporations.

Another horrible fact is that some of Monsanto's genetically modified Frankenstein plants can crossbreed with normal plants, thus sterilizing them. It is so important that we regain control of our food supply. Our current methods are wasteful and are killing us - from the genetically modified vegetables and fruits (many of which have been shown to cause tumors in rodents), to the pesticides that are sprayed on them (which poison us when we eat them, and poison our water, air and earth), to the preservatives and artificial ingredients that are doused on the prepared products (which once again, are cancerous poison), to the plastic packaging it all comes in that chokes our planet with waste!

If you want to be part of a revolution, buy some non-GM seeds (Fedco seeds is a good catalog that informs you of the origins of the seeds you are getting) and grow your own food organically. Regain control of your food and you regain control of your life. Don't pay people to poison you.

Monsanto are the Devil's Harvesters. They should all be bound to a stake and forcefed all of their own poisons. We should take to the fields and burn all of the land that is being used to cultivate these seeds of sin.

Keep sending it to them they will get tired of it and will return an answer to you. sometime we really have to let them know we will not stop until something is done. You are doing a great Job Jan. post that petition again I will sign it andforward it to everyone on my list and tell them all how important it is that everyone must act now . please don't give up . You do have people backing you on this. so keep sending it to them

I did and posted it here in video form and later in its entirety as it was written. I got little response. About seven people sent me a mail to have their names included. That was it. And of course, this will never make it to Current TV because regardless of how much I may appreciate this site in at least making some aware of this, it is obvious true activism is shunned on this site. Don't then wonder why people see a "conspiracy" regarding all media, even stations that claim to be different.

I also sent an e- mail to VANGUARD at feedback here on the 11th of last month about doing a story on GMOS and their environmental impact. I got no response from them either.

to bad you did not make that letter into a petition I would have signed it Jan. I think many would. and maybe we should all contact the one overlooking current and ask him why this is not on current tv. when we all know it should be. lets fight to get it on

They are using food fascism to hold developing countries and this one hostage to them. The question then is, what will the American people do about it? I wrote a long and thought out letter to President Obama about GMOs and their effects and sent it out almost three weeks ago. I am sure by now it is in the abyss somewhere.

I also recall Bill Clinton recently gave a speech on food policy where he recanted things that were done wrong. A bit too little a bit too late now. This is now already out in our environment globally with its poison herbicides kiling our waterways and its transgenic contamination killing our biodiversity. And the SILENCE in the media is deafening.

And on the food policy front I don't see much of anything changing. All I read are reports of Monsanto's projected INCREASE in earnings even with a global financial/climate/food crisis and the millions in tax CREDITS they are getting and the lobbyists they employ in government still. How is that change?

How many farmer's lives will have to be ruined in this country or how many will have to continue to become ill or die without knowing if it was this GM crap that made them sick? As it is scientists just issued a report to the USDA that ROUNDUP kills human cells... but that will more than likely go over like a lead balloon in THIS media.

Which honestly makes me ask this question: Why isn't this on CURRENT TV?
I see at the most two serious topics here now on current.com: News and Earth and Science. The rest is fluff. Just where are we going here?

Saving seed from this years crop to plant for next year is a time honored tradition in subsistence farming Monsanto has made that next to impossible. Its reprehensible that if their gmo/bt crop pollen blows on to a non-licensed farmers field that instead of Monsanto having to pay for the CONTAMINATION the poor farmer has to pay Monsanto for PATENT infringement.

That is exactly what they will do, use bio terrorism and diseases as excuses to go after farmers.

The American people were "sold" the Iraqi war with lies. They were told it was to help innocent people being crushed by tyranny and they wanted to help. Instead, Americans must now carry the moral burden of inflicting on Iraqis one of the most severe totalitarian controls ever devised in human history.

Monsanto is considered the most evil corporation on the face of the earth.

Hillary Clinton needs to redeem herself and Bill for what he did and she remained silent about, for Monsanto's benefit, and at the expense of all human beings.

Hilary Clinton's first act as Secretary of State, must be a redemptive act - for herself, for the United States Government, and for badly misled American who only wanted to offer freedom - the removal of the sadistic and fully fascist seed laws in Iraq.

Hillary Clinton must order that the genetic inheritance of Iraq stolen by Monsanto and the US be returned in full and that Iraqi farmers' freedom (something Sadam Hussein never took from them) be restored in whole so the Iraqis can exist and survive as free people, not as what the US and Monsanto have been reduced them to by stealing their seeds - dependent, easily starved slaves.

Vilsack spoke on January 30, 2009 of "investing in programs that alleviate hunger and suffering overseas and support long-term agriculture development."

It is time to see past symbolic shows of "the White House farmer" or empty compassionate words, to the immense threat coming at all of us through Monsanto influence over the USDA and the FDA. Our food supply and those of other countries are being taken over - in Africa as "charity," in India as "knowing better how to farm," in Iraq with all pretense put aside.

Here, Monsanto and other corporations use "food safety" or "public health" or "food security." But away from the show, they have written massively controlling and destructive regulations, www.opednews.com/articles/FOOD-SAFETY-REGULATIONS--by-Linn-Cohen-Cole-090108-947... are planning to gain more power through a centralization of already corrupted food agencies, and have orchestrated Homeland Security regulations to be handy for military force, warrantless, seizures and destruction of non-corporate farmers' animals and crops, using "diseases" or "bioterrorism" as the excuse.

Hillary Clinton has a profound moral obligation to make up for what happened when she and Bill were at the White House. Acting as Secretary of State she must restoring stolen seeds to the Iraqi people's full and unlimited control - thus restoring democracy we took and which human ownership of seeds depends upon.

Millions of people around the world marched to try to stop Bush's war in Iraq. Bush did not listen. After the catastrophe that has happened there, the world must now ensure the United States stand up for the freedom it promised.

We would all applaud Hillary Clinton's moral courage in making her first act as Secretary of State the full restoration to Iraqis of what is theirs by birthright - the most basic of democratic freedoms and most profound of human rights for all people - the right to own their own seeds and control their own food supply.

This would not be "a show of freedom," with an entire nation stripped of survival necessities and left with servitude to Monsanto and US control as the reality. It would be democratic freedom at its most fundamental, what US citizens believe in and so many have died to bring to Iraq.

This much we owe Iraq, morally. For the Iraqi people and the restoration of their most profound human right to survive, people around the world would march again. It is where we must begin.

A great Secretary of State, working on behalf of a great President, must end the "show" of democracy in Iraq and deliver back to them what is essential for a true one.

Yet Vilsack spoke on January 30, 2009 of "investing in programs that alleviate hunger and suffering overseas and support long-term agriculture development."

Kissinger said control food, control people.

Hillary Clinton is Secretary of State. Monsanto is taking over food supplies around the world, using our government to do so. This is more than "agriculture" - this is Monsanto as US foreign policy.

I began this article with material on what Clinton had done through a corrupt connection to Monsanto, forcing genetic engineering on the world against its will and even knowledge and impacting health and democratic control over food. Domestically, Hillary Clinton, closely connected to Monsanto, remained silent about the risks of genetic engineering, its undemocratic non-labeling and its strong links to increased risk of cancers and diabetes.

As Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton needs to get away from power and see the real people whose lives have been destroyed by Monsanto.

She needs to go to India and spend time with the widows and children and see what happened because Bill opened India to Monsanto. She needs to go to Africa and hear farmers angry that the US and their own corrupt governments are forcing Monsanto's GMOs and patents on them even though a huge UN studied proved organic farming can feed Africa easily and bring democratic and health benefits.

http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/africa/organic-farming-could-feed-africa...

And most of all, Hillary Clinton needs to go to Iraq and see that farmers and all future generations of Iraqis were robbed of thousands of years of their biologic inheritance by the US, working for Monsanto.

The newly-registered Kenya Small-Scale Farmers Forum yesterday claimed that the Government was being arm-twisted by multinationals to accept genetically modified food whose consumers become infertile as recently proved by German sheepkeepers.

Vilsack spoke on January 30, 2009 of "investing in programs that alleviate hunger and suffering overseas and support long-term agriculture development."

Iraq: Most Americans have no idea of the "freedom" we inflicted on farmers in Iraq, using Bremer's Order No. 81.

http://www.alternet.org/waroniraq/62273/?page=entire

"As part of sweeping "economic restructuring" implemented by the Bush Administration in Iraq, Iraqi farmers will no longer be permitted to save their seeds. Instead, they will be forced to buy seeds from US corporations -- which can include seeds the Iraqis themselves developed over hundreds of years. That is because in recent years, transnational corporations have patented and now own many seed varieties originated or developed by indigenous peoples. In a short time, Iraq will be living under the new American credo: Pay Monsanto, or starve."

From the articles:

She is Secretary of State now. So, it is important to see how US foreign/trade policy have been at Monsanto's service and to see through a "show" of compassion.

Vilsack spoke on January 30, 2009 of "investing in programs that alleviate hunger and suffering overseas and support long-term agriculture development."

India: 180,000 Indian farmers have committed suicide over the last 10 years following Bill Clinton opening India to our Big Ag corporations, Monsanto leader among them. The suicides continue at the rate on one every half hour. www.zmag.org/znet/viewArticle/16367

Vilsack spoke on January 30, 2009 of "investing in programs that alleviate hunger and suffering overseas and support long-term agriculture development."

Africa: In Kenyan (where Obama is from) farmers, voice a view held by small farmers across the continent, put out the Thika Declaration.

We believe that God created life, and no one can own it, not even Monsanto, Syngenta or other multinational companies. We therefore reject all GMOs in agriculture, and call upon the Kenyan government to respect our indigenous expertise. Therefore to be able to fully understand the effects of GMOs on our livelihoods, health and environment, we demand a twenty-year moratorium on GMOs in Kenya.
