S.510, Food Control (aka, People Control) for Dummies
By Robert Palmer
“Monsanto,” one of the most powerful multi-national corporations in the world, and arguably a major player in The New World Order conspiracy aimed at controlling millions via the food they eat, probably needs no introduction.
The Powers That Be (TPTB, a non-conspiracy acronym) has been trying to get control of our food since 1970. [1]
Any idea who is stopping them? Answer: You
You and I have been doing a great job for years, but Houston, we have a problem.
Today, 11/17/2010: the greatest threat to our food sovereignty in history, the Food Safety Modernization Act of 2010 (S.510), is on the floor of the U.S. Senate, and the food activists are sitting on the side lines ignoring the pleas for help.
Monsanto uses overt and covert strategies to accomplish their goals. They don’t leave important matters like “food” to chance. Monsanto counted on our apathy from the beginning.
To understand this abnormal behavior, we have to return to the scene of the 2009 crime, when the father of S.510 was introduced into the Congress, HR.875. [2]
The activists were out in force trying to stop HR.875, the bill That Will Kill All Farms and Eat Your Babies.
The problem was that the opposition to HR.875 wasn’t telling the truth about the bill.
The Organic Consumers Association (OCA) tried to counter the disinformation from the opposition.
OCA assured organic advocates that HR.875, the Food Safety and Modernization Act, is only “trying to improve the safety of food products derived from large industrial processing facilities and does not intend to trample organic farmers, backyard gardeners or consumers of fresh local foods.”
But the onslaught from the “controlled” opposition was relentless and continued to spread lies, half-lies and half-truths about HR.875. [3]
Spreading misinformation, misleading or outright false information is not the way to defeat “food safety” legislation. When you make that misinformed, but well-intentioned, call to your Congressman, you are doing exactly what Monsanto wants—coming across as an ill-informed and hysterical extremist.
The Cornucopia Institute and OCA tried to set the record straight with the April 3 press release, Family Farmers Fear Being Run over by Food Safety Juggernaut and sent out a mass e-mail exposing the role of the HR.875 disinformation agents:
Subject: RETRACTION: URGENT! Monsanto Bill to Ban Organic Food:
“Monsanto, or one of their proxy groups, is actually feeding libertarian groups disinformation on this bill. [3]
Unfortunately OCA was too late. Organic food activists were burned out from the emails faxes and phone calls complaining about HR.875 killing their gardens and eating their babies.
No wonder no one is taking S.510 seriously.
In 2009, you got an email that said:
BEWARE THE FOOD POLICE! HR.875/S.425
It Would Nationalize Farming- Destroy Organics- Even Attack Your Private Garden!
In 2010 the emails say:
Really BEWARE of THE FOOD POLICE! S.510
It Would Nationalize Farming- Destroy Organics- Even Attack Your Private Garden!
We were conned by Monsanto last year with a sophisticated disinformation campaign.
But it’s not too late, especially now that the Senate voted for cloture; click here to oppose S.510 Food Safety and S.3767 FDA Criminal Enforcement legislation. [4]
And don’t forget to take up your hoes and join the 43 million urban gardeners at www.pathtofreedom.com who are forming "local living sustainable communities," like City Repair in Portland.

American Idle
by Keith Johnson
Live every day as if it were your last... and then some day you'll be right. ~H.H. "Breaker" Morant~
History is not likely to speak well of today’s Americans. While the people of nations around the globe stand up to their oppressors, Americans sit idly by as their government runs roughshod over their life, liberty and property.
As we speak, large-scale protests and mass demonstrations continue in more than a dozen countries as citizens strike back against injustice, criminality and brutal austerity measures imposed by their corrupt governments.
In the UK, more than 50,000 students recently took to the streets to protest a spike in tuition costs.
America's Gulf: An Ongoing Catastrophic Disaster
by Stephen Lendman
On August 14, Obama did what he does best, deceiving and betraying the public. Again it was on the Gulf disaster, saying:
"Today, the well is capped, oil is no longer flowing into the Gulf, and it has not been flowing for a month....I also want to point out that as a result of the cleanup effort, beaches all along the Gulf Coast are clean and safe and open for business....But I won't be satisfied until the environment has been restored, no matter how long it takes."
False on all counts. The Macondo well was capped, but video and other evidence show continued leakage, an organization called Concerned Citizens of Florida (CCF), saying:
"....government cannot be relied upon to impart all the information that we need to make informed and necessary decisions. We know that they will not (and have not) respond(ed) quickly (and adequately) enough to this unfolding disaster or perform to the standard that is required to meet it head on." Nor will the major media, "act(ing) as a mouthpiece for both government and industry."
THE “CALIFORNIA MYSTERY MISSILE”
By Gordon Duff
AN EPIC AMERICAN FAILURE
The submarine launch of an ICBM off the California coast on November 8 is a milestone in American history. The immediate denials that it was an American test were a public relations disaster. America’s government does little but lie to its people, 9/11, Osama bin Laden, we could go on forever. In fact, nothing coming out of Washington or the press is remotely credible and it has finally been proven. This is a private confirmation we received:
REDACTED: Finally there is something that has occurred, in which I am actually an expert and qualified to give a real answer about. I am a retired U.S. Navy FireControl Technician, who is platform certified in missile systems XXXXXXXXX, I have also worked with the Navy’s Harpoon, Tomahawk and ASROC missile systems.Anyway, what I saw in the recent video concerning the object 30 miles off the coast of CA is blatantly a foreign made, Large Cruise or ICBM missile, being launched by a sub-surface aquatic platform.
New Jersey moves to ban TSA scanners and sexually invasive frisks
By Rady Ananda
"Is that a Pistole in your pocket, Nappy, or are you just happy to see us?"
In response to public and pilot outrage at sexual assault by transportation security authorities and to the carcinogenic x-ray machines used to scan flyers, New Jersey lawmakers announced on Monday the introduction of several resolutions banning such practices.
Additionally, the U.S. Senate Subcommittee on Aviation Operations, Safety, and Security is holding a Transportation Security Administration Oversight Hearing today (10 AM Wednesday).
BREAKING: Senate votes cloture on S 510 - must now be voted on in 60 days
By Rady Ananda
Food Freedom
By a vote of 74 to 25, at noon today, the U.S. Senate voted for cloture on S 510, the Food Safety Modernization Act, which means it must now be voted on in the full Senate within 60 days. All amendments to the controversial food control bill must be completed by that time.
One of S 510's supporters, Saxby Chambliss of Georgia, opposed cloture because modifications to the bill do not reflect its original intent, he said on C-SPAN. Chambliss fully supports giving the FDA more power over the US food supply, but is unhappy with the Manager's Amendment submitted in August.
GERD gone in 60 Seconds (Some Humor)
By Robert Palmer
[GERD is a lot of burping, a burning sensation in the chest and abdomen and an excessive amount of mucous masking as saliva that makes you cough a lot.]
Seven months ago I was diagnosed with Reflux laryngitis. I was told to swallow the mucous in my mouth instead of clearing my throat.
I didn’t know my diagnosis was Gerd, because I didn’t bother to read the Reflux Protocol the Ear, Nose and Throat Specialist (ENT) gave me when I left the office.
Had I read the sheet I would have wondered what Maalox, tight fitting clothes and elevating my head when I went to sleep had to do with my coughing from all that junk in my mouth and throat.
The Doctor was right if I swallowed the stuff it worked. I wondered out loud why nothing came out when I blew my nose. No one had an answer.
That was seven months ago, now I am coughing, belching and burning.
I am in trouble. It doesn’t matter if I eat or don’t eat, swallow or don’t swallow, I have heartburn in my stomach, pain in my chest not to mention a lot of burping.
Visiting the MedHelp.org forum didn’t help. You can be diagnosed with Gerd from just about anything you do: stress, toothache, bad posture, hernia you name it Gerd is a scourge. A typical post:
“Tears are swelling up in my eyes. I thought that i was the one person who was experiencing the belching drama. I am in my 6 years of trying to determine what is going on with me. I've tried it all (diet, meds, chiropractor, meditation, acupuncture), so I am waiting in my belching mode for relief that I am hoping will come from this forum.”
I don’t get physicals and only go to the doctor when I think it’s something simple to cure.
When I was a kid there weren’t specialists and the doctor actually came to your house. Our doctor had this to say about medicine… in 1950:
• 95% of the people who are sick will get better by themselves.
• 2.5% will get better with very little help.
• The rest who are sick can’t be helped.
I can hide the junk in my mouth but that belching and burning isn’t very attractive.
A Bribe Too Good to Refuse
by Stephen Lendman
When all else fails, offer money, or in this case weapons for peace (a clear oxymoron) via for a three month settlement construction moratorium in name only. In fact, new building is unimpeded, Obama's offer a facade to hide reality on the ground. More on the deal below.
Last December, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced the moratorium, saying he hoped it would launch meaningful peace talks. They're entirely fraudulent ones, a grand illusion even Netanyahu once called "a waste of time."

Haiti's Cholera Epidemic Sparks Outrage
by Stephen Lendman
In early November, thousands of Haitians rallied for President Jean-Bertrand Aristide's return and presidential hopeful Jean-Henry Ceant in the November 28 elections, one rigged by banning 14 political parties, including Fanmi Lavalas, by far the most popular.
Ceant founded Aimer Haiti (Love Haiti), "a movement uniting and integrating human-centered (principles) and committed to the pursuit of the ideals of unity, solidarity and fraternity to build a new Haiti on the basis of shared responsibility, social justice, peace and economic progress for all."
He's also a notaire (notary), businessman, community leader and philanthropist, the only candidate most Haitians support, whether or not he'll deliver on promises if elected. Aristide did, Preval for a while, then sold out the public that backed him. Given Washington's iron fist and no shyness using it, populist governments everywhere are at risk, especially in deeply impoverished countries like Haiti.
Washington Backing Indonesian State Terror
by Stephen Lendman
An earlier article said it was expected, accessed through the following link:
http://sjlendman.blogspot.com/2010/03/expected-obama-administration-backing.html
It discussed Indonesia's National Armed Forces (TNI), especially its thuggish Kopassus Special Forces Command, its red beret unit responsible for political killings, torture, rape, and massacres of hundreds of thousands of civilians in East Timor, Aceh, Papua, and elsewhere in the country.
TNI aid was restricted following a November 12, 1991 Santa Cruz cemetery massacre of over 270 demonstrators in Dili, East Timor. In July, it was restored, a July 22 East Timor Action Network (ETAN) press release "condemn(ing) the Obama administration's decision to resume engagement with Indonesia's notorious Kopassus special forces," ETAN's National Coordinator, John Miller, saying:
