Norman Borlaug’s Green Revolution of Eugenics And Genetically Modified Food (GMO)
Dr. Norman Borlaug has died at the age of 95. Borlaug won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1970 for agricultural innovation and the development of high-yield crops that help put a stop to the projection of world wide famine. He was also awarded Congressional Gold Medal in 2007.
In the hey day of LSD, the Vietnam War and outbursts from Jane Fonda during the 1960’s, Professor Borlaug began manipulating seeds. He produced higher-yield, disease resistant dwarf wheats and other grains that rapidly boosted harvests. Improving crop varieties were just part of his solution, he also worked with governments around the world for farmer friendly economic policies and improved infrastructure to make markets accessible.
World food production more than doubled between 1960 and 1990. Cancers rates have more than doubled too, with an estimate that it could further increase by 50% to 15 million new cases in the year 2020, http://www.who.int/mediacentre/news/releases/2003/pr27/en/
Borlaug’s work became referred to as The Green Revolution, long before genetically modified food, pesticide use and climate change became political scourges.
For many people who believe in Climate Change and Global Warming, decreasing the world’s population would be one way to reduced human footprint upon the earth. Less people would mean less consumption of resources.
Main stream media with newly coined acronyms like -NBC, or “Nothing But Crap,” ABC — “All Barrack Channel”, and CBS, which is dubbed “Controlled by State.” (http://www.salon.com/politics/war_room/feature/2009/09/12/protest/ ) rarely come right out and say the word, eugenics nor mention the conspiracies that surround it. With talk of Obama care though, the thought of Nazi propaganda has become explosive on blogs, Fox News, Satellite and terrrestial Radio and at Tea Parties. From Bob Kemp at- http://www.renewamerica.com/columns/kemp/090908
“Control the birth rate, ration healthcare and medicine and restrict availability of various treatments and procedures. Let’s not forget the efforts of many nations to eliminate the births of “defective” children by abortion, and segregate the aged, mentally challenged and physically deformed by whatever means are available, just as long as the “fit” do not have to look upon the “unfit.” In the early decades of the 20th century, eugenics found much of it funding coming from corporate philanthropies like The Rockefeller Foundation, the Carnegie Institution and the Harriman railroad fortune, just to name a few. These corporations joined with respected scientists from some of America’s most prestigious universities such as Stamford, Yale, Harvard and Princeton. They all believed that eugenics was good science; good for the nation, good for mankind, good for the future. They promoted race theory and race science and would alter and manufacture data to serve their racist agenda.”
Michael R. Taylor was appointed by the Obama administration to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on July 7th. He was The Vice President for Public Policy at Monsanto Corp. from 1998 until 2001.
“Yet what has slipped under everyone’s radar screen is Taylor’s involvement in setting U.S. policy on agricultural assistance in Africa. In collusion with the Rockefeller and Bill and Melinda Gates foundations, Taylor is once again the go-between man for Monsanto and the U.S. government, this time with the goal to open up African markets for genetically-modified (GM) seed and agrochemicals. http://www.foodfirst.org/en/node/2515
“Recently the American Academy of Environmental Medicine called for a moratorium on GMO foods stating that they “pose a serious health risk.” These risks include “infertility, immune dysregulation, accelerated aging, dysregulation of genes associated with cholesterol synthesis, insulin regulation, cell signalling, and protein formation, and changes in the liver, kidney, spleen and gastrointestinal system.” (see http://www.aaemonline.org/gmopost.html and http://www.aaemonline.org/gmopressrelease.html).
Ah, Montsano with it’s motto of Growing Yield Sustainability http://www.monsanto.com/ are owners of the fertilizer, pesticides, and the improved seeds. Varieties of Monsanto’s GM corn produce seedless plants requiring farmers to buy more seeds for each planting season.
“While AGRA may not benefit African farmers, it will certainly benefit Monsanto. Some estimate that Monsanto controls 90 percent of the global market for GM seeds. In Brazil, 54 percent of all soybeans are produced with Monsanto’s GM Roundup Ready© seeds, and in 2008, the country began spraying more pesticides and herbicides than the U.S. There is evidence that in 2003, Monsanto sold a Brazilian senator a farm for one-third of its market value in exchange for his help to legalize the herbicide glyphosate (the world’s most widely used herbicide), sold by the corporation as Roundup©. In 2008, Monsanto controlled 80% of the Brazilian market for glyphosate, having elevated the price by 50% since its legalization.”

Used in more than 90 crops such as bananas, cereals, coffee, grapes, canola, peanuts, pome and stone fruits, rice, soybeans and vegetables. Tebuconazole was included in a biocide ban proposed and approved by the Swedish Chemicals Agency.
The U.S. Food and Drug Aministration considers this fungicide to be safe for humans, it may still pose a risk. It is listed as a possible carcinogen in the US Environmental Protection Agency Office of Pesticide Programs (OPP) Carcinogen List with a rating of C (possible carcinogen). Its acute toxicity is moderate. According to the World Health Org’s Toxicity Classification, it is listed as III, which means slightly hazardous.

History Channel Admits Rockafeller Population Control Video, 2007
Turn to this May when the “Billionaires Club” meeting took place secretly to consider how their wealth could be used to slow the growth of the world’s population and speed up improvements in health and education. Described as the Good Club by one insider it included David Rockefeller Jr, the patriarch of America’s wealthiest dynasty, Warren Buffett and George Soros, the financiers, Michael Bloomberg, the mayor of New York, and the media moguls Ted Turner and Oprah Winfrey. The philanthropists who attended a summit convened on the initiative of Bill Gates, the Microsoft co-founder, discussed joining forces to overcome political and religious obstacles to change http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/world/us_and_americas/article6350303.ece “Taking their cue from Gates they agreed that overpopulation was a priority.
Gates had donated millions of dollars to Planned Parenthood. President Obama was the top recipient of Planned Parenthood campaign donations in 2008. http://www.campaignmoney.com/political/committees/planned-parenthood-action-fund-inc-70004148.asp?cycle=08
Gates and the Rockefeller Foundation are funding a “Doomsday Seed Vault” in the Arctic to under the premise of preserving “crop diversity.” Many experts feel that this vault is being used to develop more GMO foods as a form of biowarfare. http://www.globalresearch.ca/index.php?context=va&aid=7529
“The first notable point is who is sponsoring the doomsday seed vault. Here joining the Norwegians are, as noted, the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation; the US agribusiness giant DuPont/Pioneer Hi-Bred (sichttp://www.pioneer.com/web/site/portal/menuitem.0128f8e2dab251f7bc0c0a03d10093a0/) , one of the world’s largest owners of patented genetically-modified (GMO) plant seeds and related agrichemicals; Syngenta, the Swiss-based major GMO seed and agrichemicals company through its Syngenta Foundation; the Rockefeller Foundation, the private group who created the “gene revolution with over $100 million of seed money since the 1970’s; CGIAR, the global network created by the Rockefeller Foundation to promote its ideal of genetic purity through agriculture change.
“Green Revolution was a brilliant Rockefeller family scheme to develop a globalized agribusiness which they then could monopolize just as they had done in the world oil industry beginning a half century before. As Henry Kissinger declared in the 1970’s, ‘If you control the oil you control the country; if you control food, you control the population.’
Dr. Norman Borlaug for today is being hailed a hero. What his food research has produced for the future may not turn out to be so heroic, unless your into population control.

I am John, how are you everybody? This post posted at this web page is in fact good.
Your anti-Obamaism was prevalent in the article, but after all the information (and links for reference) that you offer, I admit I was a bit surprised to read the above discloser.
None-the-less, you offer some brilliant insight, and I commend and thank you…as a flaming, liberal, progressive!
BTW, for fear of ending up with a thousand camel fleas in my armpits (LOL) I posted your site on my feed and gave you not only due credit, but a thumbs up.
You asked what the authors at Ahrcanum do to relieve the suffering around the globe?
1. We pay taxes. No other nation in the world contributes more funding and agricultural crops gratis in the world.
2. We educate and encourage dialogue. If you never question anything you may never get the to the truth.
3. We are Conservatives and VOTE REPUBLICAN.
Borlaug’s contributions are widely noted as being a success as noted in this post. The long term repercussions on our food supply and the impact on population that began with his research has yet to be determined.
Have you ever seen a child die from hunger? Or men fight in the streets over a moldy loaf of bread? What are you doing to relieve the suffering of the millions around the globe? Dr. Borlaug is a hero – at least to the millions that he saved from starvation.
I am sure Norman Borlaug meant well. But as they say, the road to Hell is paved with good intentions.
