Imagine this. A killer is put on trial, and the jury, in a surprise verdict, finds him not guilty.
Afterwards, reporters interview this killer. He says, “The jury freed me. It’s up to them. They
decide. That’s what justice is all about.”
Then the press moves along to members of the jury, who say: Well, we had to take the
defendant’s word. He said he was innocent, so that’s what we ruled.
That’s an exact description of the FDA and Monsanto partnership.
When you cut through the verbiage that surrounded the introduction of GMO food into
America, you arrive at two key statements. One from Monsanto and one from the FDA, the
agency responsible for overseeing, licensing, and certifying new food varieties as safe.
Quoted in the New York Times Magazine (October 25, 1998, “Playing God in the Garden”),
Philip Angell, Monsanto’s director of corporate communications, famously stated: “Monsanto
shouldn’t have to vouchsafe the safety of biotech food. Our interest is in selling as much of it as
possible. Assuring its safety is the FDA’s job.”
From the Federal Register, Volume 57, No.104, “Statement of [FDA] Policy: Foods Derived from
New Plant Varieties,” here is what the FDA had to say on this matter: “Ultimately, it is the food
producer who is responsible for assuring safety.”
The direct and irreconcilable clash of these two statements is no accident. It’s not a sign of
incompetence or sloppy work or a mistake or a miscommunication. It’s a clear signal that the fix
was in.
No real science. No deep investigation. No convincing evidence of safety. Passing the buck back
and forth was the chilling and arrogant strategy through which Pandora’s Box was pried
Taylor and others knew. They knew about gene drift, and they also knew that ownership of the
world’s food, by a few companies, was a prime focus for Globalist kings.
Control food and water, and you hold the world in your hand.
Here is evidence that, even in earlier days, Monsanto knew about and pushed for the Globalist
agenda. Quoted by J. Flint, in his 1998 “Agricultural Giants Moving Towards Genetic
Monopolism,” Robert Fraley, head of Monsanto’s agri-division, stated: “What you are seeing is
not just a consolidation of [Monsanto-purchased] seed companies. It’s really a consolidation of
the entire food chain.”
And as for the power of the propaganda in that time period, I can think of no better statement
than the one made on January 25th, 2001, by the outgoing US Secretary of Agriculture, Dan
Glickman. As reported by the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, Glickman said:
“What I saw generically on the pro-biotech [GMO] side was the attitude that the technology
was good and that it was almost immoral to say that it wasn’t good, because it was going to
solve the problems of the human race and feed the hungry and clothe the naked. And there was
a lot of money that had been invested in this, and if you’re against it, you’re Luddites, you’re
stupid. There was rhetoric like that even here in this department [USDA]. You felt like you
were almost an alien, disloyal, by trying to present an open-minded view on some of these
issues being raised. So I pretty much spouted the rhetoric that everybody else around here
spouted; it was written into my speeches.”
Glickman reveals several things in these remarks: he was spineless; people at the Dept. of
Agriculture were madly buying into the Monsanto cover story about feeding the world; and
there had to be a significant degree of infiltration at his Agency.
The last point is key. This wasn’t left to chance. You don’t get a vocal majority of Dept. of
Agriculture personnel spouting Monsanto propaganda merely because the fairy tale about
feeding the world sounds so good. No, there are people working on the inside to promote the
“social cause” and make pariahs out of dissenters.
You need special background and training to pull that off. It isn’t an automatic walk in the
park. This is professional psyop and intelligence work.
It isn’t rinky-dink stuff. To tune up bureaucrats and scientists, you have to have a background
in manipulation. You have to know what you’re doing. You have to be able to build and sustain
support, without giving your game away.
Psyop specialists are hired to help make overarching and planet-wide agendas come true, as
populations are brought under sophisticated and pathological elites who care, for example,
about feeding the world as much as a collector cares about paralyzing and pinning butterflies
on a panel in a glass case.
Here is David Rockefeller, writing in his 2003 Memoirs:
“Some even believe we are part of a secret cabal working against the best interests of the United
States, characterizing my family and me as ‘internationalists’ and of conspiring with others
opened and GMO food was let into the US food supply.
In order for this titanic scam to work, the media had to cooperate. Reporters had to be a) idiots
and b) sell-outs.
Reporters and their editors let the story die. No sane principled journalist would have cut bait,
but who said mainstream reporters are sane or principled?
Underneath the Monsanto-FDA buck-passing act, there was a conscious deal to give a free pass
to GMO crops. This had nothing to do with science or health or “feeding the world.” It was
about profits. It was also about establishing a new monopoly on food.
Not only would big agribusiness dominate the planet’s food supply as never before, it would
strengthen its stranglehold through patents on novel types of seeds which were engineered.
It’s very much like saying, “A cob of corn is not a plant, it’s a machine, and we own the rights to
every one of those yellow machines.”
How was Monsanto able to gather so much clout?
There was one reason and one reason only. Putting the world’s food supply into fewer hands
was, and is, a major item on the Globalist agenda. If it weren’t, the FDA-Monsanto approval
scam would have been exposed in a matter of weeks.
Major newspapers and television networks would have attacked the obvious con job like packs
of wild dogs and torn it to pieces.
But once the scam had been given a free pass, the primary corporate-government tactic was to
accomplish a fait accompli, a series of events that was irreversible.
In this case, it was about gene drift. From the beginning, it was well known that GMO plants
release genes that blow in the wind and spread from plant to plant, crop to crop, and field to
field. There is no stopping it.
Along with convincing enough farmers to lock themselves into GMO-seed contracts, Monsanto
bought up food-seed companies in order to engineer the seeds…and the gene-drift factor was
the ace in the hole.
Sell enough GMO seeds, plant enough GMO crops, and you flood the world’s food crops with
Monsanto genes.
Back in the 1990s, the prince of darkness, Michael Taylor, who had moved through the
revolving door between the FDA and Monsanto several times, and is now the czar of food
safety at the FDA—Taylor said, with great conviction, that the GMO revolution was
unstoppable; within a decade or two, an overwhelming percentage of food grown on planet
Earth would be GMO.
Taylor and others knew. They knew about gene drift, and they also knew that ownership of the
world’s food, by a few companies, was a prime focus for Globalist kings.

“Some even believe we are part of a secret cabal working against the best interests of the United
States, characterizing my family and me as ‘internationalists’ and of conspiring with others
around the world to build a more integrated global political and economic structure—one
world, if you will. If that is the charge, I stand guilty, and I am proud of it.”
The Globalists play for keeps.
Owning the food of the world is part of their strike-force action plan, and Monsanto is a
technocratic arm of that plan.
Meanwhile, the controlled press treats the whole sordid Monsanto/FDA story with its timehonored
policy of “he said-he said.” This policy dictates that stories merely present both sides
of a conflict without drawing conclusions.
Monsanto’s lies and crimes and cover-ups are everywhere. You could wear sunglasses and find
them in the dark.
The NY Times and the Washington Post could sell millions more papers on the back of
Monsanto stories. It would be a bonanza for them. But no. They don’t care. They’d rather keep
declining and losing readers. They’d rather die.
Normally, a business doesn’t commit suicide, especially when it sees exactly how to resuscitate
itself. But here we are dealing with an agenda which can’t be disturbed. Globalism, and its agritechno
partner, Monsanto, are creating a planetary future. Major media are part and parcel of
that op. They are selling it.
Again, we aren’t talking about sloppy reporting or accidental omissions of fact or boggling
incompetence or ignorance about science. We are talking about conscious intent to deceive.
Yes, now and then the controlled media will release a troubling piece about Monsanto. But
placement and frequency are everything. How often do these stories run? Do they run as the
lead or do we find them on page 3? Are reporters assigned to keep pounding on a basic story
and reveal more and more crimes? Does the basic story gather steam over the course of weeks
and months?
These are the decisions that make or break a story. In the case of Monsanto and the FDA, the
decisions were made a long time ago.
Part of every reporter’s training in how the real world works, if he has any ideals at all, is
marching into his editor’s office with his hair on fire demanding to be given an assignment to
expose a crime. The editor, knowing the true agenda of his newspaper or television network,
tells the reporter:
“We’ve already covered that.”
“It’s old news.”
“People aren’t interested in it.”
“It’s too complicated.”
“The evidence you’re showing me is thin.”
“You’ll never get to the bottom of it.”
“The people involved won’t talk to you.”
And if none of those lies work, the editor might say, “If you keep pushing this, it would be bad
for your career. You’ll lose access to other stories. You’ll be thought of as weird…”
This is how the game works at ground level. But make no mistake about it, the hidden agenda
is about protecting an elite’s op from exposure.
If NBC, for example, gave its golden boy, Brian Williams, the green light, he would become an
expert on Monsanto in three days. He’d become a tiger. He’d affect a whole set of morally
outraged poses and send Monsanto down into Hell.
Don’t misunderstand. Brian hasn’t been waiting to move in for the kill. But wind him up and
point to a target and he’ll go there.
However, no one at NBC in the executive offices will point him at Monsanto or the FDA.
All the major reporters at news outlets and all the elite television anchors are really psyop
specialists. It’s just that most of them don’t know it.
One outraged major reporter who woke up and got out of the business put it to me this way:
“When I was in the game, I looked at the news as a big public restroom. My one guiding
principle was: don’t piss on your shoes. That meant covering a story that was considered out of
bounds. If I talked to the boss about one of those stories, he’d look me up and down and say,
‘Hey, you pissed on your shoes. Get out of here.’”
