Important info/films exposing GMO foods that EVERYONE NEEDS to see! Please pass on the following to everyone you know.

First, check out this disturbing and informative must see film "Genetic Roulette", a documentary exposing GMO foods:

Trailer:



Full documentary:



Another great documentary:

"Seeds of Death: Unveiling the Lies of GMOs" by Gary Null



Wow I didn't know that 70 percent of foods in the average US supermarket contains genetically modified foods! That's crazy. And it's not even labeled either! Why does the government make it so difficult to avoid GMO foods? And why doesn't the mainstream media talk about this? It's like the government is literally FORCING us to eat GMO foods! That can only be the result of a sinister malevolent motive.

How are you supposed to avoid GMO foods out in restaurants? In Europe, Russia and China, GMO foods require labeling. So why not in the US? Why are such evil people allowed to take control of the US? I wonder if the elites eat GMO foods.

Did you know that most of the FDA's own scientists report that GMO foods were very unsafe, yet the FDA ignored them and went ahead and allowed them anyway? That's f***ed up. Why would the government go against common sense and basic logic without conscience? This can only mean that something very evil is going on at the top.

How is it that one company such as Monsanto was allowed to invade and control the food supply of the entire country? That's batshit crazy and insane. It can only be the result of a conspiracy.

My question to her would be why are they fighting the labeling of their product if they are so proud of it? I thought this was a free capitalistic country where you let the consumer decide. If your product doesn't sell, you shouldn't be allowed to force them and hide it from them. FDA is another government agency sold to the highest bidder and no longer a respected name.

Mr. Wu, if you really want to know the scoop on GMO's read F William Engdahl's book on it.

The reason Monsanto is able to do these things with no flak from anyone is because Monsanto is controlled by one of the owners of the FED bank, people need to understand the United States went bankrupt in the 30's and the people who are doing this are just exercising their rights under the bankruptcy treaty.

They turned the key's of the nation over to creditors in exchange for a currency to run the country in order to facilitate trade and bring us eventually out of the great depression which was caused by the Fed in the first place.

It has taken them 80 years but with their fake money they have captured all our power centers and you are looking at communism through the back door. The never anticipated the net and the plan was to spread the GMO's world wide to depopulate the planet through the food supply but the net is upsetting their apple cart.

The Chinese government likes to shut the door on foreign GMO imports, not necessarily because they believe it's unsafe, but because of protectionism of China's own GMO industry. Understand that China is not looking to ban GMO crops in the long-term. Rather, they want to compete against Mosanto head-on in the same game. In China GMO researchers use primary school students in poor-er areas as guinea pigs, feeding them newly developed GMO rice to see if it causes any ill effects. If any kids develop health problems, it's far cheaper to pay off a poor rural Chinese family than a lawsuit in first world countries.

Also, as a nationalist policy, GMO crops that increase yield would help China reach closer to the goal of self-sufficiency in food production, and reduce reliance on foreign (read: US) imports. If the competing sphere of influence between Pax-Americana and a revitalized Pax-Sinica comes to blows (direct or by proxy), it'd not be in China's self interest to be dependent on their #1 frenemy for food imports.

I don't know what is in China's GMOs but if it is anything like some of their other products being imported here with all the toxins in them it would not surprise me at all.

People need to understand the PTB set China up in the last 60 years to be where they are today, I think when you break China down you are going to find the same people who own our corporations in the West own controlling stock's in theirs as well.

The largest companies in China are State Owned Enterprises (SOE) in the energy, telecom, and banking sector. They're managed by China's State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of the State Council. China's SOE's today are buying hard assets in the "west", for example CNOOC's acquisition of Nexen, a Canadian oil and gas company in Alberta for $15 billion in Feb this year:

http://finance.yahoo.com/news/nexen-ann ... 00137.html

I suspect westerners who believe that the "same people who own western corporations own controlling stock in China" are self-centered and do not consider the possibility that your future corporate masters might be Chinese.

Easy answer is they bought off the FDA and USDA.

The Conspiratorial answer is that they want to ruin your health, your fertility, and reduce your lifespan. Bill Gates through his foundations and Pfizer are both part owners of Monsanto, if my memory serves me correctly. Also the same people who work for Monsanto used to work for the FDA/USDA and vice verse.

Next question: why must children be vaccinated? And why do they refuse to allow lot tracking of vaccines? Same answer.

Here is Bill Gates defending vaccinations and arguing that they save lives. He claims that anti-vaccine groups are killing children. What do you think? I thought Bill Gates was smart. Why would he say this? I wonder if Bill Gates vaccinates his children or eats GMO foods himself. lol



Here is a slip up by Bill Gates where he admitted that he wants vaccines to reduce the population of the world. I can't believe he said this.



Here is Bill Gates' response to a student who asked him about the 50,000 vaccine deaths in India and Pakistan that came from his foundation.

Momopi,
Are you in favor of GMO foods? Why or why not?

Do you like eating GMO foods? Do you believe they are safe?

Do you acknowledge the corruption between the FDA and Monsanto? Or do you still believe that authority=truth because your Taiwanese genes by nature worship authority and believe in conformity?

Here is Bill Maher talking about GMO food and how corporations rule America. He makes some great melodramatic points.



Here is an 11 year old kid on a public stage telling everyone how he told Monsanto and GMO foods to "shove it". This is the smartest 11 year old I've ever seen. Wow. He's so articulate too.

From a very fundamental standpoint, it makes no sense to vaccinate children before their immune systems are mature enough to respond. There is no reason to vaccinate babies at birth for hepatitis. There's also little reason to vaccinate for other things like chicken pox or other diseases which are rarely fatal.

Another thing about those vaccines, the manufacturers can not be sued if something goes wrong. They have blanket immunity. Thats another reason never to get your kids vaccinated.

Bill Gates = Freudian Slip

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freudian_slip

A Freudian slip, also called parapraxis, is an error in speech, memory, or physical action that is interpreted as occurring due to the interference of some unconscious ("dynamically repressed") subdued wish, conflict, or train of thought guided by the super-ego and the rules of correct behaviour. They reveal a "source outside the speech". The concept is thus part of classical psychoanalysis.
Slips of the tongue and the pen are the classical parapraxes, but psychoanalytic theory also embraces such phenomena as misreadings, mishearings, temporary forgettings, and the mislaying and losing of objects.

The Freudian slip is named after Sigmund Freud, who, in his 1901 book The Psychopathology of Everyday Life, described and analyzed a large number of seemingly trivial, bizarre, or nonsensical errors and slips.
Freud never named an idea, discovery, or concept after himself, instead calling his therapies psychoanalysis. It is unknown who first coined the term "Freudian slip", but it has since come to be used around the world and has been found in various pop-culture references and even found its way into everyday speech.
The process of analysis is often quite lengthy and complex, as was the case with many of the dreams in his book The Interpretation of Dreams (1899). An obstacle that faces the non-German reader is that Freud's emphasis on 'slips of the tongue' leads to the inclusion of a great deal of material that is extremely resistant to translation.
As in the study of dreams, Freud submits his discussion with the intention of demonstrating the existence of unconscious mental processes in the healthy:

“ In the same way that psycho-analysis makes use of dream interpretation, it also profits by the study of the numerous little slips and mistakes which people make -- symptomatic actions, as they are called [...] I have pointed out that these phenomena are not accidental, that they require more than physiological explanations, that they have a meaning and can be interpreted, and that one is justified in inferring from them the presence of restrained or repressed impulses and intentions. [Freud, An Autobiographical Study (1925)] �

Freud, himself, referred to these slips as Fehlleistungen (meaning "faulty actions", "faulty functions" or "misperformances" in German); the Greek term parapraxes (plural of "parapraxis", from the Greek παρά [para] and πρᾶξις [praxis], meaning "another action" in English) was the creation of his English translator, as is the form "symptomatic action".

Alternative explanations

Main article: Speech error
In contrast to psychoanalytic theorists, cognitive psychologists claim that linguistic slips can represent a sequencing conflict in grammar production. From this perspective, slips may be due to cognitive underspecification that can take a variety of forms – inattention, incomplete sense data or insufficient knowledge. Secondly, they may be due to the existence of some locally appropriate response pattern that is strongly primed by its prior usage, recent activation or emotional change or by the situation calling conditions.[1]
Some sentences are just susceptible to the process of banalisation: the replacement of archaic or unusual expressions with forms that are in more common use. In other words, the errors were due to strong habit substitution.[1]
In general use, the term 'Freudian slip' has been debased to refer to any accidental slips of the tongue.[2] Thus many examples are found in explanations and dictionaries which do not strictly fit the psychoanalytic definition.
For example: She: 'What would you like—bread and butter, or cake?' He: 'Bed and butter.'[2]
In the above, the man may be presumed to have a sexual feeling or intention that he wished to leave unexpressed, not a sexual feeling or intention that was dynamically repressed. His sexual intention was therefore secret, rather than unconscious, and any 'parapraxis' would inhere in the idea that he unconsciously wished to express that intention, rather than in the sexual connotation of the substitution.

We have a very difficult or near impossible ability as Americans to sue for damages with anything related to Vaccines or GMO's at this present time in America. However, it still seems possible in parts of Europe:

Italian Court Rules MMR Vaccine Caused Autism: US Media Blacks Out Story

May 8, 2013 by Joe Martino
The debate over vaccines continues as an Italian court ruled in favor of the Bocca family whose nine-year-old son became autistic after receiving the MMR (Measles/Mumps & Rubella) vaccine. I came across this case and felt it was a good idea to report on this as the vaccine debate has been a hot topic here lately. Although the case concluded in 2012, the information is just as relevant today.

UPDATE: We realize the controversy surrounding Wakefield and his study. Please also note that the story about Wakefield being paid to create data to due vaccine makers is a false story. At the time of this false story, vaccine makers were protected from even being able to be sued. He obviously can see no benefit in creating a “fake study� to sue people that cannot be sued. Instead of focusing on Wakefield, observe the other studies involved and the massive growing movement to re-think vaccines based on science and evidence. We also recognize that Autism is a spectrum disorder, meaning that there is a wide range in how it affects people. A phenomenon due to vaccines could account for some type of Autism on that spectrum. On the other hand we recognize that there could be be some genetic differences within ones DNA that could result in showing behavior and other types of characteristics seen in what we have labelled as Autism or ASD.

Autism is a spectrum disorder, meaning that there is a wide degree of variation in the way it affects people.

Valentino Bocca was given the MMR vaccine when he was 15 months old in 2004. The family has stated that immediately after the jab their son began showing signs of serious discomfort. The Bocca family decided to act and took the case to court. Judges determined the vaccine did cause the autism after new evidence was presented and awarded the Bocca family 174,000 euro (£140,000) after the Italian Health Ministry conceded the MMR vaccine caused autism in their nine-year-old son Valentino. After the ruling, Italian lawyers began examining around 100 similar cases which they believe could lead to more families pursuing court cases.

Of course this case does not come with two sides to the argument. In Britain, doctors and health experts insist that the onset of autism after the vaccine was merely a coincidence and that other children develop autism around the same time. The official statement of the Department of Health is that ‘there is a wealth of evidence showing children who receive the MMR vaccine are no more at risk of autism than those who don’t.’

The Bocca case is not the first case where children have been allegedly damaged by vaccines. The Vaccine Injury Compensation Program has paid out over $2 billion in compensation to families who have been damaged by vaccines. The Bocca case ruling will likely re-open much debate over vaccine safety and effectiveness. This was largely made popular when the respected medical journal The Lancet published an article in 1998, making a connection between the triple vaccine and autism. Later on, the author’s methods were discredited but this of course came with controversy as well. Luckily, the news of it alone was enough for families to re-question the vaccine when thinking of their children.

Though the debate is still ongoing, many people are seriously questioning vaccines and this isn’t just the average person. Medical doctors have been educating themselves further on vaccines as the evidence continues to pile up about the ineffectiveness and lack of safety associated with vaccines. The number of autism cases has risen greatly since the 1970s, as the number of vaccines a child receives continues to rise dramatically.

Although it is not yet clear what the new evidence was that concluded the Bocca case, it is almost certain that it will continue to build the case for re-thinking vaccines.

The black out in US media is a prime example of how much medical information is censored in North America. This may add to the fact that it seems North America is a lot more unaware of healthy practices regarding medicine, lifestyle and diet. Of course this isn’t to say that everyone is like this in North America, but when you look at the numbers we can see that North America is among the unhealthiest when it comes to developed countries.

A great example of how the medical industry tends to avoid new vaccine science comes in the case of Dr. Andrew Wakefield. He has been involved in extensively reviewing the MMR vaccine and its safety, and has found not only some scary results, but also a great opposition and blacking out when it comes to the medical field looking at his evidence. The videos below go into this story in depth.

The following is from Dr. Mercola

“It’s virtually impossible to read an article about the MMR vaccine without coming across a reference to British gastroenterologist Dr. Andrew Wakefield’s 1998 research published in The Lancet, which suggested there may be a link between the MMR vaccine, chronic bowel disease and autism. Ever since the article’s publication, it has remained one of the most cited yet controversial studies on the topic of vaccine safety.

Few public health officials or doctors speaking about vaccination in the media today fail to drive home the point that Wakefield’s research was subsequently “discredited� by the General Medical Council in Britain, while completely ignoring the facts about what his research actually showed, and the long list of studies done since then by other researchers that back up his initial findings.

Dr. Wakefield’s 1998 study involved a retrospective case series analysis, which essentially reviews the clinical histories of a group of patients with a constellation of signs and symptoms that link them together and create a pattern. In this case, it was a group of autistic children with gastrointestinal problems, which led to the discovery of a novel bowel disease that Wakefield and his colleagues at the Royal Free Hospital in London first described.

But rather than celebrating the discovery of a tangible, treatable and potentially preventable serious health problem that could help those suffering with similar health issues, Wakefield’s discovery became a hotly debated controversy in which Dr. Wakefield’s personal and professional reputation was smeared.

Why?

Because the clinical story didn’t end with bowel disease; it also included symptoms of regressive autism after receiving the MMR vaccine…

In the years following his 1998 finding, which linked the MMR vaccine to inflammatory bowel disease and symptoms of autism, Dr. Wakefield published another 19 papers on the vaccine-induced bowel disorder. All were peer reviewed, and none have been retracted. However, none of these 19 papers are ever discussed in the media.

The only study that keeps seeing the light of day is the original Lancet article from 1998. Another interesting fact is that, since that study, a large number of replication studies have been performed around the world, by other researchers, that confirm Wakefield’s initial findings. Yet you never hear a word about those either!�

As a supporter of space exploration of colonization, of course I support the advancement of GMO technology. However I am also a supporter of mandatory labeling laws, because I think if you do not want to eat GMO foods, then that should be your choice as a consumer.

We've been eating GMO foods for couple decades and I have yet to see anyone grow an extra limb. I eat GMO food daily, and if you think about it humans have been selectively domesticating plants and animals with desirable mutations for thousands of years (see: Scottish fold cats). However if you want to be conservative about it, you can say that the long-term effects cannot be determined at this time and we must wait another couple of decades for better assessment. It's easier assess things like Microwave Ovens that's been around since 1947, if the stuff really cause brain cancer then the kitchen workers should be dropping like flies from exposure to it daily at work.

Also, the FDA is not the only regulatory agency with biotech foods. EPA and USDA can also put their foot down, as EPA have done so with GMO corn in 1998 because it contains a protein that may cause allergic reaction in some people. The issue with FDA is that there is no mandatory pre-market testing and approval process for GMO foods, they accept Monsanto's test results and adopted the policy of voluntary labeling, which I oppose. If prepackaged foods are required to list ingredients for purpose of informing the customers to make their own choices, then why not specify GMO ingredients?

Monsanto’s GMOs Alter DNA of Bacteria to Produce Pesticides in your Gut

GM genes effectively transfer into the bacteria living inside our intestines, causing them to carry out the altered genetic function — which in some GM foods, is PRODUCING PESTICIDES.

The human subjects of the study who ate Roundup-Ready soy, courtesy of Monsanto, were shown to have bacteria in their gut with the same gene that was altered in the soy to withstand the deadly doses of herbicides given to the crop.

So my gut germs won’t be killed by chemical herbicides, you say? Yeah that doesn’t sound too bad. Except, disrupting the delicate balance of healthy intestinal flora, is a serious health gamble. You don’t want to go around messing with this stuff.

most of the corn, soybeans and cotton cultivated in the U.S. stems from these Roundup Ready seeds.
