Why Is Russia Banning GMOs While the US Keeps Approving Them?
[link to naturalsociety.com]

There have been marches, vocal demonstrations, petitions, and laws banning GMOs, but the US is still lagging in the ‘democratic’ freedoms it has promised its people. Russia, on the other hand, has completely banned GMOs, placing a moratorium on their imports for 10 years. The nation rejects GMOs due to numerous dangers, while the US continues to allow Monsanto, Dow, Bayer, Syngenta, and their bullying kind to contrive a cold war on the American people.

The VP of Russia’s National Association for Genetic Safety, Irina Ermakova, has said:

“It is necessary to ban GMOs, to impose moratorium (on) it for 10 years. While GMOs will be prohibited, we can plan experiments, tests, or maybe even new methods of research could be developed. It has been proven that not only in Russia, but also in many other countries in the world, GMOs are dangerous. Methods of obtaining the GMOs are not perfect, therefore, at this stage, all GMOs are dangerous. Consumption and use of GMOs obtained in such way can lead to tumors, cancers and obesity among animals. Bio-technologies certainly should be developed, but GMOs should be stopped. We should stop it from spreading. ”

Conversely, the ‘amber waves of grain’ are toxic. They are loaded with more GMO chemicals than ever before, and our government supports this act of tyranny.

And yet the same revolutionary beliefs for which our forebears fought are still at issue around the globe—the belief that the rights of man come not from the generosity of the state, but from the hand of God.

John F. Kennedy Inaugural Address

Lincoln's economic advisor Henry C. Carey explained the universal issue in his 1851 Harmony of Interests:

"Two systems are before the world.... One looks to pauperism, ignorance, depopulation, and barbarism; the other to increasing wealth, comfort, intelligence, combination of action, and civilization. One looks towards universal war; the other towards universal peace. One is the English system; the other ... the American system, for ... elevating while equalizing the condition of man throughout the world."

"Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former." - Albert Einstein

Re: Why Is Russia Banning GMOs While the US Keeps Approving Them?
it's completely out of my mind how a coporation like monsanto deeply involved into creating mass destruction weapons and part of military complex of US has been left carry on its business around the globe

Would you let producer of landmines in shape of nice toys made to kill children, also produce toys sold in stores?

HOW CAN THIS BE POSSIBLE?

Re: Why Is Russia Banning GMOs While the US Keeps Approving Them?
So why is Russia joining with other Western counties to run tests on the safety of GMOs?

Do you not think it a BIT suspicious that Russia along with other Western countries launched what they are calling the world largest study of GM crops on human health and the environment in London?

Or that they are planting test crops in various location in Western Europe AND Russia..

[link to factorgmo.com]

The Problem I see with these studies is if you are going to do them then you really need to carry them out on isolated islands or you will get cross contamination.

Big risk having such crops, even for tests in any country.

Do you not think it a BIT suspicious that this study is being framed in the US media as Russian sponsored when it is taking place in Western Europe AND Russia, while being launched in London and being funded by the EU and Russia.

There are no commerical GM crops in the UK, and in Europe the only really commercial GM Crops are a maize (Monsanto) for animal feed, but even that is also banned in France, Germany, Greece, Austria, Luxemburg and Hungary.. The other crop is grown in Germany and Sweden is a small amount of modified potatoes (BASF) for paper making, but the legality of that one has since been annulled, so really only one commerical GM crop in the whole of Europe.

The EU and Europe as a whole is not in favour of GM crops.. So there is much more to this Russian ban as it mirrors moves made by US allies, in fact if you turn it around the US is the odd one out.

It'll be interesting to see the pressure those allies come under in the coming months.. but then I expect the excuse national government in the West will use is that they need to wait the outcome of the study..

Not directly, just indirectly as animal feed, which is already brought in from Europe..

And there is already a growing lobby to label those that have been fed on GM crops.

The US is not the biggest worry in this regard but South America (Brazil/Argentina) as that is the real back door being used to bring in unlabelled feed in Europe.

"Who is funding this study?

The funding process will be totally transparent and a full list of funders will be provided at the start of the experimental phase in 2015. We will not wait for the results to be published before publishing the full list of funders as many scientific studies do.

Up to this stage private individuals from across Russia and the EU have put forward the full funds (to be disclosed next year)."

It certainly is interesting as it changes the dynamics completely from a Russia bashing the US, which we could put down to the current "conflict by other means" that we see enacted elsewhere to something much more wide reaching.

usa is a fascist country, the fascism symbol is a bundle of rods with an axe head poking out of it - research it, no really, it is.

now, find a photo of the house of reps, congress - see the flag? see the two bundles of rods with an axe head either side of the flag - right that says: this place is fascist.

fascism is a marriage of corporations and government.

that said, the us is a corporation, for profits. GMO allows more profits for everyone.

Re: Why Is Russia Banning GMOs While the US Keeps Approving Them?
It's because Putin is not trying to reduce the population. GMOs are a tough subject to debate. On one hand they have made it possible to feed the world. On the other hand, that food is poison. It not only poison the one eating it, but probably all of his descendants. The potential for DNA damage is the worst part of GMOs, but nobody seems to care enough to actually research it.
