Here is an interesting 10-slide presentation on Why GMOs Can Never Be
Safe
Story at-a-glance
*
Genetic modification interferes
fundamentally with the naturally-occurring genetic modifications that
organisms undergo in order to survive
*
An organism's genome is not static but fluid, and its biological
functions are interconnected with its environment and vice versa, such
that trying to control genetic changes via artificial modification is a
dangerous game.
*
Compared with natural genetic modification, artificial genetic
modification is inherently hazardous because it lacks the precision of
the natural process, while enabling genes to be transferred between
species that would never have been exchanged otherwise
*
Artificial genetic modification uses horizontal gene transfer, which
involves injecting a gene from one species into a completely different
species; this yields unexpected and often unpredictable results,
including the transfer of GM genes to humans

GMO, Blackwater, Monsanto,
Journalist Jeremy Scahill states in The Nation:
"... entities closely linked to the private security firm Blackwater
have provided intelligence, training and security services to US and
foreign governments as well as several multinational corporations,
including Monsanto, Chevron, the Walt Disney Company, Royal Caribbean
Cruise Lines and banking giants Deutsche Bank and Barclays, according
to documents obtained by The Nation. Blackwater's work for
corporations and government agencies was contracted using two
companies owned by Blackwater's owner and founder, Erik Prince: Total
Intelligence Solutions and the Terrorism Research Center (TRC). Prince
is listed as the chairman of both companies in internal company
documents, which show how the web of companies functions as a highly
coordinated operation."

However, what the spokesperson fails to address is that according to
documents secured by Scahill, Monsanto was willing to pay a sizable
sum (up to $500,000) for Blackwater agents to infiltrate anti-Monsanto
organizations.
This may well be literally the fight of our lives. Certainly the quality
of our lives given scientific studies that suggest GMO food is not good
for animals and people.
