control the source of food you control the people

Contamination, even the risk of contamination, from GM crops has been long denied by the GE Industry as a figment of the imagination of those opposing GM crops. However, it is a biological fact and the physical evidence of genetic contamination being reported from all over the world is now incontrovertible and conclusive. The recent GM rice contamination of US long-grain rice is so serious that the damage to the US rice industry is valued in billions of $s with countries moving to ban US rice imports and American farmers being stopped from planting rice in the current season. The GM contamination of rice in the US is spiralling out of control despite the best attempts of farmers, millers, exporters and the Regulator to contain it and clean up. Thus, the strategy of GM crop developers in the US and other parts of the world has now changed to demanding that they be allowed to contaminate Non GM crops! Regulation is being 'bent' to allow contamination...


Contamination of all crops by GM will be so pervasive that we will all be faced with a 'fait accompli' everywhere, particularly in India and the developing world, so that it will be futile in future to oppose it. Hence action is required now, otherwise all 'natural' seeds will be virtually extinct. This is quite simply the objective of the Biotech GE industry led by Monsanto.
