virtually United States diplomats to further their agenda, have been
busted for running slave rings, and are covering up the evidence that
their GMOs are damaging your health.

It is well known that Monsanto’s GMO crops provide a very real
threat to both public health and the environment as a whole, but the depth of
Monsanto’s corruption is often a less covered topic.
It has been revealed by WikiLeaks that Monsanto not only has key
figureheads stationed in powerful government positions inside the United
States, but also has many ~ if not all ~ U.S. diplomats on their payroll.
A document via WikiLeaks cable exposes controversial
corporate influence in American government and foreign policy. At least one US
ambassador urged a trade war against Europe for its resistance against Biotech
giant Monsanto’s genetically modified (GM) crops. CBS reports,
According to the leaked cable, Ambassador Craig Stapleton, a friend and former business partner of Bush, sent a message to Washington in 2007 suggesting the U.S. government, “calibrate a target retaliation list that causes some pain across the EU since this is a collective responsibility, but that also focuses in part on the worst culprits.“The list should be measured rather than vicious and must be sustainable over the long term, since we should not expect an early victory. Moving to retaliation will make clear that the current path has real costs to EU interests and could help strengthen European pro-biotech voices,” said Stapleton, according to a report in The Guardian.
Naturalnews.com notes that “many”
US ambassadors share in this vice and agenda toward several countries,
including, recently, the Vatican. But foreign influence is not the half of it.
Monsanto has “infiltrated” key positions in the US in order to advance
legislation and regulations that favor the company’s agenda of total dominance
of the food market.
Amazingly, the information reveals that the massive corporation
is also intensely involved in the passing and regulations concerning the very
GM ingredients they are responsible for. In fact, the information released by
WikiLeaks reveals just how much power Monsanto has thanks to key positions
within the United States government and elsewhere. Not only was it exposed that
the U.S. is threatening nations who oppose Monsanto with military-style trade
wars, but that many U.S. diplomats actually work directly for Monsanto.
In
addition to threatening trade wars and using political corruption as a business
model, Monsanto has also been busted for forcing workers into ‘slave-like’ conditions.
Forcing
slave workers to work the cornfields for 14 hours per day and buy their food
at highly-inflated prices from the
company store, Monsanto has been running these slave rings for an unknown number of years.
It wasn’t until Argentina’s tax agency, known as AFIP, raided the Monsanto
corn field did the operation become unveiled.
The undying support of key players within the U.S. towards
Monsanto is undeniably made clear not only in this release, but in the
legislative decisions taken by organizations such as the FDA and USDA.
Legislative decisions such as allowing Monsanto’s synthetic hormone Posilac
(rBGH) to be injected into U.S. cows despite being banned in 27 countries.
How did Monsanto pull this off?
The biotech juggernaut managed to infiltrate the FDA positions
responsible for the approval of rBGH, going as far as instating the company’s
own Margaret Miller as Deputy Director of Human Safety and Consultative
Services. After assuming this position, Miller reviewed her own report on the
safety and effectiveness of rBGH.
Monsanto’s corruption has never been more obvious, with many
political figureheads in the U.S. government spearheading the initiative to
spread Monsanto’s GMO crops far and wide.
Even billionaire celebrities like Monsanto shareholder, Bill
Gates, have been pushing GMOs as the answer to everything from starvation to
sustainable agriculture.
Of course, despite this, it has been proven by a team of 900 scientists that GMO crops are not an effective way to fight starvation.
In
addition, scientists have shown that GMOs are damaging to your health.
A prominent review
of 19 studies examining the safety of these crops found
that consumption of GMO corn or soybeans can lead to significant organ disruptions in rats and
mice ~ particularly in the liver and kidneys.
Disregarding this information, the USDA is now preparing to give Monsanto’s new GMO crops even speedier regulatory review in order to secure their financial success.

Monsanto uses more conventional avenues of influence as well.
According to lobbying watchdog site opensecrets.org, Monsanto topped the
Agricultural Services/Products Industry, spending $6.37
million dollars lobbying last year alone.
