Post Monsanto Guilty of Chemical Poisoning in France
Monsanto Guilty of Chemical Poisoning in France

By Dr. Mercola

Most people do not realize that genetically engineered foods were only approved in the U.S. because the FDA hid 40,000 documents indicating their extreme toxicity.

Countries around the globe are making it increasingly clear that they're not going to continue to let Monsanto abuse the health of their people and environment without putting up a fight.

On the heels of being sued by India's National Biodiversity Authority on biopiracy charges, France has found the biotech giant guilty of chemical poisoning in a case involving a French farmer.

Monsanto Chemical Caused Farmer's Neurological Problems

After inhaling Monsanto's Lasso weed killer, which was later banned in France in 2007, grain farmer Paul Francois said he experienced neurological problems including memory loss, headaches and stammering.

A court in Lyon, France ruled in his favor, with the sum of damages to be awarded forthcoming.

Francois is not the first farmer to come forward with health problems linked to pesticide exposure -- not by a long shot. France alone receives about 200 such alerts each year.

However, in the last decade only about 47 of the cases have been recognized as being caused by agricultural chemicals like pesticides, mostly because the farmers are exposed to so many chemicals over the course of their lives, that it is difficult to place blame on one over another.

As Reuters reported:

""It's like lying on a bed of thorns and trying to say which one cut you," said a farmer, who has recovered from prostate cancer and asked not to be named."

France, at least, appears to be taking the issue seriously. As the largest agricultural producer in the European Union, the country plans to cut pesticide use by 50 percent between 2008-2018.

Perhaps they're simply fed up with Monsanto's toxic products and questionable business ethics. A few years ago, a French court again found Monsanto guilty, this time of falsely advertising its Roundup herbicide as "biodegradable," "environmentally friendly" and claiming it "left the soil clean." France has also recently asked the European Commission to suspend Monsanto's authorization to plant genetically modified MON 810 corn, citing "significant risks for the environment" shown in recent scientific studies (Germany has also banned the cultivation of MON 810 corn).

Monsanto Accused in Suit Tied to Agent Orange

The guilty verdict in France's pesticide poisoning case is nothing out of the ordinary for Monsanto, and given the fact that it involves only one farmer is not likely to faze the chemical giant. On the other hand, in the town of Nitro, West Virginia, tens of thousands of people are involved in a class-action lawsuit that alleges the company spread toxic substances, primarily carcinogenic dioxins, all over the city.

For a period spanning 20 years, a Monsanto chemical plant in Nitro produced the herbicide 2,4,5-T, which is a component of Agent Orange, the extremely toxic herbicide used to defoliate jungles during the Vietnam War. The suit claims poisonous residues from the chemical have polluted the area, putting residents' health and the environment at serious risk. It is calling for Monsanto to monitor residents' health and to clean up polluted properties, although recently a court rejected the cleanup request.

According to NPR:

"At issue in this case: whether Monsanto will have to pay millions of dollars to monitor the health of everyone included in the case ... This is not the first time lawyers have sued Monsanto over health effects in Nitro. In the 1980s a lawsuit was brought on behalf of seven former employees ... The cleanup issue is still being appealed. Meanwhile the medical monitoring case is headed to trial after settlement negotiations failed."

Corporations like Monsanto whose only interest is monetary profit are sociopathic at best, and sociopathic serial killers at worst.

The sooner we change the basic model of civilization away from money, the better off we will be. The pursuit of life, liberty, and happiness can be nothing but a futile effort ending in failure as long as money controls our choices and behaviors.

Monsanto is guilty of chemical poisoning right here in the USA, in more ways than one. But here is another one just for the record.

The lethal effects of "bioavailable" aluminum/alumina in rainwater and thus in the soils is well documented. Its effect on trees is also noted in science studies. Of course there are corporations who exist to profit from calamity. Monsanto always seems to be at the top of this list. As geoengineered drought and aluminum sterilized soils force independent farmers to sell, international ag corporations are there to buy up the land and put to use their "aluminum resistant seeds."

For ruling sociopaths, this is just a game, but it's a complicated game, like chess. Spray the skies, poison the water, poison the crops, and then sell new GMO crops that can resist the poisons but still deliver the lethal payload to the masses for effective population reduction.

Yes, this is exactly how sociopaths think. They don't care how much pain and suffering they cause. They feel no shame for their behavior, but are privately quite proud of it, taking it as evidence of their superiority. They will deny all responsibility for their actions in this genocide. That's also why they keep it all secret, to protect themselves from the "blow back" that the victims would unleash if they could only identify the guilty parties.

Vindication for "conspiracy theorists" regarding Monsanto:

Quote:
For over a decade, Monsanto has been engaged in building and maintaining “hit lists” of journalists, lawmakers and regulators to be taken out if they opposed the evil agenda of GMOs and toxic glyphosate weed killer chemicals that now inundate the world food supply. Any influential person who opposed the Monsanto agenda was subjected to one or more of the following:

  • Attempted bribery
  • Death threats and intimidation
  • Character assassination through well-funded “negative P.R.” campaigns
  • Defamation via coordinated Wikipedia attacks, run by Monsanto operatives
  • Career destruction, such as getting scientists blacklisted from science journals
  • Being doxxed, having their home addresses publicized and their families and co-workers threatened

In other words, Monsanto has been running a “black ops” division for over ten years, spending perhaps $100 million or more on efforts to silence, destroy or assassinate anyone who interfered with the agricultural giant’s market dominance. -- source

Monsanto operates just like the U.S. government! And no wonder, since at the highest levels, both organizations are essentially private clubs for sociopaths!

These bulleted items are indeed the methods sociopaths use against their opponents. This also explains why the U.S. government did not shut down Monsanto's evil activities — cabals of sociopaths have common interests (the pursuit of power and control via deception and manipulation) and will cooperate for their mutual benefit at the expense of the general public.

This really illustrates how bad things become when sociopaths are not identified early on and controlled. The world is a mess, and it's because sociopaths can get away with murder.
