Organic Valley will match you dollar-for-dollar to a maximum of $25,000 if you’ll help the Center for Food Safety fight GM Alfalfa.

Please join Organic Valley in supporting the Center for Food Safety’s fight against Monsanto’s Roundup Ready GM Alfalfa!

The Center for Food Safety (CFS) has a long history fighting to stop the proliferation of genetically modified crops. In 2010 they battled Monsanto and the USDA at the U.S. Supreme Court, and were victorious in maintaining the four year ban on the planting and sale of GM alfalfa. CFS also fought successfully to uphold a ban on GM sugar beets; in November, a federal judge ordered the removal and destruction of illegally planted GM beets.

Now that sounds all fine and dandy, but it turns out that Organic Valley and the Center for Food Safety are not what they seem to be.

Let’s think back to just a few short months ago when word broke out that the “organic elite” – consisting of Organic Valley, Whole Foods Market, and Stonyfield Farms – pretty much sold out to the Monsanto agenda

http://www.organicconsumers.org/articles/article_22449.cfm

“The policy set for GE alfalfa will most likely guide policies for other GE crops as well. True coexistence is a must.”   -  Whole Foods Market, Jan. 21, 2011

In the wake of a 12-year battle to keep Monsanto’s Genetically Engineered (GE) crops from contaminating the nation’s 25,000 organic farms and ranches, America’s organic consumers and producers are facing betrayalA self-appointed cabal of the Organic Elite, spearheaded by Whole Foods Market, Organic Valley, and Stonyfield Farm, has decided it’s time to surrender to Monsanto. Top executives from these companies have publicly admitted that they no longer oppose the mass commercialization of GE crops, such as Monsanto’s controversial Roundup Ready alfalfa, and are prepared to sit down and cut a deal for “coexistence” with Monsanto and USDA biotech cheerleader Tom Vilsack.

And while the Center for Food Safety presents itself as anti-GMO, it turns out that they are actually funded by the spearheaders of the GMO movement – the Rockefellers.

Some “non-profit” tax exempt 501(c)3 organizations have been known to engage in controlled opposition. For example, the Center for Food Safety (CFS) represented farmers in opposition to Monsanto in the Supreme Court GMO alfalfa case and in many other anti-GMO cases. While we have no way of knowing whether Andrew Kimbrell, the Executive Director of CFS and his brother George (of counsel) performed solid work in opposing Monsanto or whether they sandbagged the endeavor, there are reports that CFS and its parent company have taken in $1.75 million dollars from the John Merck Fund, which has ties to the Rockefeller Family Fund. Andrew Kimbrell of CFS filed a petition with the EPA to ban colloidal silver which is a natural antibiotic agent with many benefits that competes directly with Merck’s dubious pharmaceutical drugs. This organization has the appearance of working in the public’s interest, but in a separate action, it has operated in opposition to public benefit.

According to tax forms provided by Guidestar.org, the Center for Food Safety, a NPO whose lawyers have represented farmers against Monsanto, is a recipient of a grant from the Rockefeller Philanthropy Advisors foundation for $75,000 in 2008 and the Center for Food Safety’s sister agency, the International Center for Technology Assessment, received $147,000 from the Rockefeller Family Fund in 2008.  This would appear to be a deep conflict of interest because the Rockefellers have been primary funders for advancing the genetically modified food revolution and agricultural manipulation as chronicled in F. William Engdahl’s book ‘Seeds of Desrtuction’.

Perhaps a more fitting name for the CFS (Center for Food Safety) would be Criminals for Frankenfood Supremacy.

Food Freedom Betrayal!

Organic Consumers Association Funded by Big Pharma!

Farm Wars

Our food supply is in jeopardy. Not only from outside forces such as poisons from China, but from within. The very people that we look to for guidance seem to be working together to lead us straight into global food governance in the form of Codex Alimentarius. This is especially alarming when you consider that the very organizations such as the USDA and FDA, that are charged with the safeguarding and regulation of our food supply are at the forefront of the battle, leading us straight into worldwide genocide using food as a weapon.

But the USDA and FDA do not stand alone. There are others who consider food to be “fair game” in this war against the people, and they just happen to control some very large purse strings. So, who holds the purse strings behind the push to obliterate any food safeguards we may have? Let’s just pick two – Rockefeller and Merck, then take a closer look at a few of the “trusted” organizations that they fund.

The Purse Strings

Rockefeller

Let’s take a look at just a part of what the Rockefeller crime family is involved in concerning our food supply.

Today, the Rockefellers use coercive population control tactics and food as a weapon through a front organization, CGIAR (Consultative Group on Agricultural Resources) as the Rockefellers are trying to distance themselves from public- just like the Rothschild clan has done. Engdahl reports that CGIAR operates under the umbrella of the UN World Bank, and its primary focus is the spread of GMO crops. CGIAR was created by the Rockefellers and the Ford Foundation, along with the UN World Bank in 1971 with $350 million dollars a year in funding. (MorphCity)

Financed by generous Rockefeller and Ford Foundation study grants, CGIAR saw to it that leading Third World agriculture scientists and agronomists were brought to the US to master the concepts of modern agribusiness production, in order to carry it back to their homeland. In the process they created an invaluable network of influence for US agribusiness promotion in those countries, most especially promotion of the GMO Gene Revolution in developing countries, all in the name of science and efficient, free market agriculture.(InformationLiberation)

The Rockefeller Foundation spent more than $100 million for the advance of the GMO revolution. (Engdahl – Seeds of Destruction)

Part of the Rockefeller dynasty includes a group known as Rockefeller Philanthropy Advisors:

Rockefeller Philanthropy Advisors is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that advises donors in their philanthropic endeavors throughout the world. The foundation is headquartered in New York City and adheres to John D. Rockefeller Sr.’s practice of managing philanthropy “as if it were a business.”[1] Rockefeller Philanthropy Advisors currently advises on and manages more than $200 million in annual giving in more than 60 countries.[2] (Wikipedia)

Philanthropy can be used by business to advance a corporate image that is acceptable to certain groups of people in order to put up a benevolent facade while all the time conducting business as usual, which may or may not be so benevolent.

Comment: PETA is funded by the Rockefeller Philanthropy Advisors, the Tides Foundation, and the Park Foundation (which funds an ExxonMobil/Halliburton front named Sunshine Kids). The PETA inner circle (Ingrid Newkirk, Bruce Friedrich, etc.) will never be prosecuted by the government unless they were to one day rebel against their Rockefeller/Tides/Park overlords. But the lowly plebes who join PETA and participate in protests? Those are the ones who will be put on the terror watchlists and prosecuted as terrorists.

—————————————

http://www.treehugger.com/files/2009/12/peta-classified-terrorist-threat.php?campaign=daily_nl

PETA is one of the most controversial activist groups operating today. The group’s contentious media campaigns, undercover operations, infamous advertising, and high profile demonstrations have made them perhaps the most notorious–and most polarizing–nonprofit organization there is. But are they terrorists? According to the US Department of Agriculture, they are now.

And right when PETA was about to be able to call it quits, too. The USDA has just released a new security profile form (pdf), which it distributes to animal experimentation facilities. The form reveals that PETA has been classified as a terrorist threat by the US government–potentially opening up its members to prosecution as terrorists. According to Green is the New Red, an eco-activist rights website, the document was given to all facilities that conduct experiments on animals. They were asked to disclose whether they were the target of attacks or harassment from a list of terrorist groups–one of which, evidently, is PETA.

Here’s an excerpt from the form:

B. Terrorist Threat. What terrorist activities have occurred in or around your building/facility in the past 5 years (documented cases)? Please check all that apply.

[ ] Attack from international terrorists
[ ] Attack from domestic special interest terrorists
-[ ] Earth Liberation Front (ELF)
-[ ] Animal Liberation Front (ALF)
-[ ] People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA)
-[ ] Animal Defense League (ADL)
-[ ] Stop Huntingdon Animal Cruelty (SHAC)
-[ ] Formal hate group(s) (please specify):
-[ ] Other (please specify): ____________________
[ ] Cyber Attack from a known or unknown source.

As you can see, PETA has apparently been classified as “domestic special interest terrorists”, along with the far more radical likes of the Animal Liberation Front.

This clearly reveals that the government has taken to treating PETA as a terrorist group. Now, I’ve had my many beefs with PETA (hello, pun) before, but this seems beyond the pale. PETA may be controversial, yes, but they are lawful, nonviolent and publicly funded. So how did they end up on a list of the nation’s most dangerous domestic threats?

GNR has some ideas:

Because they expose what goes on behind closed doors . . . Animal industries are quite open about their desire to use terrorism laws to keep their practices out of the public spotlight. I recently posted about the Animal Agriculture Alliance calling for federal prosecution of undercover investigators. It’s not because the investigators are violent. It is because they pose an even greater threat: educating the public.
In other words, industries that rely on factory farming (the bane of PETA, and one of their hot button issues) may have the lobbying muscle to get PETA listed as a terrorist threat for their benefit.

That may be so. Even if it’s not, the ‘terrorist’ categorization has some very troubling ramifications. For instance, according to the Sacramento Bee, four animal activists in California are currently facing terrorism charges for protesting at individual homes and creating fliers with names and addresses on them. Because they committed what amounts to trespassing, they’ve received some of the same charges leveled at groups that use bombs and carry out physical harm. While these protesting individuals’ actions may very well have been illegal, do they really constitute terrorism?

We’ll have to see what develops as more information is revealed–as it stands, listing PETA as domestic terrorists seems be more threatening to the general right for citizens to protest than anything else.

Will PETA Protest Itself?

When British entrepreneur Simon Buckhaven invented an electric gizmo that kills lobsters and crabs “more humanely” than the traditional method of dispatching the creatures—in a pot of boiling water—no one was surprised to see People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) jump on the bandwagon. But the “CrustaStun,” which looks a bit like a lobster photocopier, may be one contraption the animal liberation nuts wish they’d never heard of.

Last weekend, PETA arranged for a CrustaStun to be sent to a Tucson fundraiser for Child & Family Resources. The charity has prepared its “Lobster Landing” dinners the old fashioned way for years, but PETA hoped to usher in a new era of electrocution—presumably so they could protest the event next year with “Don’t Taze Me” posters and a comically demonic “Electric Chair Louie” mascot.

PETA’s crustacean triumph didn’t exactly go as planned. Here’s how Halifax, Nova Scotia’s Chronicle Herald described the eventual dispatching of 1,800 lobsters:

The animal rights group PETA bought two of the lobster devices and paid for Mr. Buckhaven and his wife to fly to the Arizona event last Saturday to demonstrate the technology.

Unfortunately, the courier service lost the two machines and the animal rights people had to look the other way as volunteers killed hundreds of lobster in boiling water for hungry supporters of the resource centre.

We’re left to wonder why, once the boiling started, the PETA activists didn’t make their point by tossing a few toasters and hair dryers in the water. Or inviting a “euthanasia technician” from PETA headquarters to make a deliciously efficient job of it.

Next year, we recommend lethal injection. With drawn butter.

Famous Meat-Eaters Throughout History March 5, 2007

Posted by Marta

#5: Osama Bin Laden, terrorist leader, 1957 – present

I could tell you a long drawn-out story detailing the history of al-Qaeda, but if you don’t know who Osama Bin Laden is, you probably can’t read and/or don’t have a computer. Osama orchestrated the September 11th attacks on America—not to mention a few dozen other terrorist bombings—and he eats animals. Yes indeed, a meat-eater planned 9/11. ‘Nuff said.

By the way PETA, are you referring to al-CIAda, the CIA front set up during the Soviet-Afghanistan crisis? And what about NORAD standing down?

Just saw Jane Velez Mitchell (mainstream media whore) and Ingrid Newkirk (Rockefeller operative) doubleteaming a fat woman on a discussion about the recent PETA billboard which compared fat women to whales. In a nutshell, they’re still pushing the “official” story that fatty foods cause obesity. Why doesn’t Ingrid “I Look Like An Inbred Rothschild” Newkirk talk about aspartame and MSG? Because she would be attacking the very interests owned by her pathetic little group’s Rockefeller handlers.

It’s bad enough that PETA – the corporation itself and its “inner circle” – uses and exploits animals to further their agenda. But for them to team up with mainstream media whores such as Jane Velez Mitchell to demonize and ostracize fat people – as they did with their obese whipping girl – is a new low.

As long as people believe that anybody who says “9/11 was a manufactured crisis” is a deranged conspiracy theorist, they will continue to believe that anybody who says “the obesity epidemic is a manufactured crisis” is a deranged conspiracy theorist. Just face it, sheeple. Fat people are the new Jews. Just as it was fashionable in Nazi Germany to make fun of and ridicule and persecute Jews, it is now fashionable in the so-called “land of the free and home of the brave” to make fun of and ridicule and persecute fat people. The Nazis never disappeared. They went underground.

This is why there will NEVER be an honest discussion about the obesity epidemic in the mainstream media. Just drink your aspartame, eat your MSG, and shut up, slave!

PETA donates money to Earth First!, Animal Liberation Front, Earth Liberation Front, the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society, and other environmentalist terrorist organizations and militants, and publishes material sympathetic to or instructive in environmentalist terrorism (e.g., Animal Liberation Front: the Army of the Kind and Activism and the Law). PETA’s “vegan campaign director”, Bruce Friedrich, told the Animal Rights 2001 convention in Virginia that “It would be great if all the fast-food outlets, slaughterhouses, these laboratories and the banks who fund them exploded tomorrow.” Michael Rodman, Greenpeace’s current head of human resources, was previously HR honcho for PETA. PETA cofounder Alex Pacheco started his activist career in Watson’s Sea Shepherd organization, and is rumored to be a honcho in the Animal Liberation Front. In 1989, Pacheco declared “Arson, property destruction, burglary and theft are acceptable crimes when used for the animal cause.” Many people at PETA are emeriti of the Humane Society of the United States, and the two groups enjoy warm relations. There are similarly warm relations between PETA and the Sierra Club. PETA’s top 20 donors are all foundations, among which are the Park Foundation and Rockefeller Philanthropy Advisors. Their top donor is Animal Charities of America, which promotes “Humane training of animals as helpmates”, remarkable for its use of the biblical term used for Eve in Genesis (and used nowhere else in the Bible, and of course, not at all in modern speech). Animal Charities of America is one in a constellation of about a dozen charities associated with management umbrella Maguire/Maguire, and its finances are very opaque. The charities under Maguire/Maguire’s umbrella participate in the “Combined Federal Campaign” (CFC) administered by the U.S. Office of Personnel Management, a program facilitating charitable giving by federal employees, and Maguire/Maguire’s charities receive roughly 20% of the proceeds. In September 2004 the office accused the charities of “a lack of responsible governance and a serious breach that could threaten public confidence in the federation, its members, and the CFC”. Well, this is all rather inside baseball, but it gives a taste of the networking and shennanigans behind the scenes.

There’s an organic hog farm owned by the Rockefellers a few miles from the Indian Point nuclear power plant on the Hudson river North of Manhattan, but PeTA won’t protest there because one of PeTA’s top 20 benefactors are the Rockefeller Philanthropy Advisors… PeTA is fine protesting fur and meat eaters, as long as it doesn’t bite the carnivorous hand that feeds them!

http://www.treehugger.com/files/2009/01/peta-veggie-sex-hoax.php

Animal Rights is once again, taking way too much attention away from much more important and pressing environmental problems.

I’ve always wondered if the the CIA was in fact funding PeTA to distract the general public and undermine the credibility of environmentalists.

Then I discovered last year that indeed, PeTa gets money from Rockefeller Philanthropy Advisors, which has worked with the CIA in the past to fund dissenting artists behind the Iron Curtain to destablize communism.

RPA also gives money to Exelon, the nuclear power company which was responsible for 35% of Obama’s orginal campaign seed money.

Maybe that’s why PeTA would never protest the slaugter of hogs at the Rockefeller Stone Barns Center in Tarrytown, New York, or protest the millions of fish the Indian Point nuclear power plant kills every year in its cooling system!

Rockefeller Philanthropy Advisors $34,100.00 1997 – 2005

http://www.nbcchicago.com/around-town/fashion/PETA-Wants-to-Save-the-Whales—Fat-People-53504377.html

So it’s okay for a Rockefeller Philanthropy Advisors front group to make fun of fat people, but people who make “Obama as the Joker” posters are racist right-wing extremists, even when they also make “Bush as the Joker” posters and put them side by side. Angry

Imagine the uproar from the corporate media if somebody created a billboard comparing the ADL to the Nazis.

PETA Wants to Save Florida Whales – Fat Women
By TODD WRIGHT
Updated 6:15 PM CDT, Mon, Aug 17, 2009
Since it will be a few months before Michael Vick takes the field, PETA has decided to target someone else in preparation – fat people.

A new ad campaign, which recently launched in Jacksonville, takes aim at overweight people in about as direct a way as you can. A huge billboard in the city reads, “Save the Whales. Lose The Blubber. Go Vegetarian.” Next to the words is a pretty large woman, who looks to be about a biscuit away from becoming a whale dressed in a polka-dot bikini.


Now, that’s a low blow.

“Our goal is help overweight Jacksonville residents – the best way to do that is to go vegetarian. We’re not trying to insult anyone,” Ashley Byrne, a senior campaigner for PETA told Huffington Post. “Vegetarians look and feel better than meat eaters. This is a life-saving message.”

Could this message find its way over Interstate 95 in the magic city? Don’t be surprised if it does. PETA has become a pretty noticeable force in South Florida

But the billboard could also get local PETA protesters sat on by upset chubby folks who more than likely will take offense to the billboard. As far as we can tell, this is PETA’s first real harpoon shot at large people. Usually the organization goes after seal clubbers or fur hunters and recently the group’s M.O. has been to use sexy images to draw people into their message.

But instead of sexy models barely covered in pieces of lettuce to push a vegan lifestyle, PETA is going with the shock and awe approach. It doesn’t appear that the billboard will be coming down anytime soon and its unclear what city the anti-fat message will show up next.

Maybe next month, PETA will be trying to save the hippos.

http://www.contactmusic.com/news.nsf/article/hynde%20meat-eaters%20are%20terrorists_1001108

Rocker CHRISSIE HYNDE has hit out at meat-eaters, branding them the true “terrorists” of this world. Speaking at a London gala organised by animal rights group PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) last night (28JUN06), the PRETENDERS frontwoman delivered an impassioned speech to a star-studded crowd including fellow campaigners GILLIAN ANDERSON, SADIE FROST and PAMELA ANDERSON. The 54-year-old even declared she is prepared to be imprisoned for her beliefs. She said, “We know that all meat-eaters are terrorists and PETA declared its war on terror years and years ago. “I’d rather go to jail with them than go out clubbing with any person I know.” Hynde was presented with an award for her ceaseless efforts to improve fast food giant Kentucky Fried Chicken’s treatment of animals.

——————————————–

It’s bad enough that Hynde says meat eaters are terrorists, but Brock Chisolm actually had the gall to compare meat eaters to the 9/11 hijackers.

“Meat-eaters make every day a 9/11 for animals in slaughterhouses.” – Brock Chisholm

Non-vegetarians are the real terrorists — they need to lay down their weapons and pick up some healthy, humane eating habits.” – Ravi Chand

George Bush said the terrorists attacked us because “they hate us for our freedoms”. So why is it that scumbags – liberal and conservative – such as George Bush, Dick Cheney, Barack Obama, Rahm Emanuel, Eric Holder, John Ashcroft, Alberto Gonzales, Chrissie Hynde, Brock Chisolm, and Ravi Chand are hating OUR freedoms? Why do fake-liberals such as Chrissie Hynde, Brock Chisolm, and Ravi Chand support PETA, a known front group for the Rockefeller Philanthropy Advisors and controlled by the same Rockefeller interests which control the “meat industry front” Center for Consumer Freedom, who then turn around and say PETA is a terrorist organization for funding the ALF and ELF which could possibly be CIA fronts? The truth is that the animal “rights” whackjobs and the “meat industry front” BOTH have the same puppet masters. Animal “rights” is NOT about animal rights at all. It is about ensuring that human beings are just as much enslaved as animals.

George Bush, Dick Cheney, Barack Obama, Rahm Emanuel, Eric Holder, John Ashcroft, Alberto Gonzales, Chrissie Hynde, Brock Chisolm, and Ravi Chand: THE REAL AL-QAEDA

I can just hear Obama the corporate stooge fearmongering and propagandizing for a Microsoft bailout: “If we were to allow an American technological giant such as Microsoft to just disappear, it would have a ripple effect which would destroy the entire tech industry. I know many people believe we should just adopt the free software model, but the truth is free software is not beneficial to our economy. If we were to rely on free software, the tech industry would lose trillions of dollars and millions of jobs worldwide. The tech industry must be able to make money in order to fund future technological advances. If we were to allow Microsoft to go bankrupt, technology would not advance. In fact, technology would regress back to the early 20th century. I cannot allow that to happen. I WILL not allow that to happen. Therefore, I am calling on Congress to pass an immediate bailout of Microsoft. We MUST save Microsoft if we are to have any technological future.
