The world according to Monsanto

The chemical corporation who gave us agent orange, aspartame and Bovine Growth Hormone, now wants to control our food supply through genetically modified patented seeds. If you thought that GMO-s are the solution to feed the hungry, you are unfortunately seriously mistaken.

Monsanto is also responsible for serious dioxin and PCB contamination of both people and the environment and highly toxic herbicides such as its blockbuster chemical Roundup. Which is by the way already insufficient in fighting the super weeds it has created.




A quote from a Vietnam veteran:

"Vietnam vets consolidated suit against them proves they knew about the health hazards and possible death of persons exposed! The memo found sent out by Monsanto saying to other chemical co. involved, “Do not leak that dioxin is a health hazard and could cause death!” This is their memo, not mine nor anyone using the chemical. That’s why the Veterans won their case! However on that point, the $285,000,000 awarded by the court judge, only came to $900 each for the 400,000 vets involved. The lawyer got $1,000,000 the day of the decision. The veterans got their money as late as years later. How fair is that? Believe me as a suffering vet who didn’t get any money from this suit, as I didn’t qualify under guide lines at that time. I do now, but, oh how sad for me. Let’s have a pity party for me. No, lets get rid of Monsanto! Then and only then will I be a little happy. I could get millions and not be happy. It’s not about the money, like it is for them! I’ll never be the same and I’m sure I’ll die before I am supposed to because of my exposure. So will millions around the world! They are still selling dioxin to third world countries and they are going to poison the populations in the gene pool of seeds and ban organic crops that they don’t own. They will own any crops that pollen from their crops germinate and they will then own that crop! Listen to the issue on this in the documentary!"

    This film really is a must see. Shows what an evil corporation Monsanto really is. One should never buy anything connected with Monsanto in any way. Whatever chemicals Monsanto (and other chemical businesses) have created have caused so much devastation and destruction with their poisons, and all in the name of profit. Same applies for GM.

    Meanwhile the pro-GM propaganda offensive continues, with the British government chief scientist claiming that GM crops "could feed the world". I wonder how much Monsanto and other chemical companies paid to get the statement they wanted to hear. One should not forget that the UK government has been pro-GM since at least the Blair years, and is continuing its propaganda offensive, because the UK public has been overwhelmingly against GM. Do not believe the latest round of propaganda either.

    GM has already ruined lives. Nobody should ever believe any pro-GM propaganda. Nobody should ever believe that GM, designed to make soya crops specific to proprietary pesticides, or crops designed to terminate (and not reproduce therefore) can feed the world. It will do the opposite, and make food shortages much much worse. Why would anyone trust Monsanto, especially if they knew the truth? And why would anyone trust anyone in Monsanto's pockets?

    And Bill Gates has shares in this corporation. Enough reason to boycott Microsoft as well as boycotting Monsanto.

    All those interviews broke my heart. Thank you for putting this information available to all who are concerned about this subject. I'm left speechless.
