Secret studies proving Monsanto sells poisonJon Rappoport The glyphosate toxicity studies youre not allowed to see, gmwatch.org, July 2, 2014. Glyphosate is the main ingredient in Roundup, Monsantos product, which is used in hurricane-like proportions on GMO crops. Robinson doesnt baldly assert these secret studies prove the poisonous nature of Roundup, but her piece certainly leads to that conclusion. Here are the facts: In China, this year, the Ministry of Agriculture admitted that legalizing the import of Roundup was based on a single toxicology test done in St. Louis. Monsanto then stated, as Robinson reports, that the study constituted its own commercial secret, adding that the company had never disclosed the study anywhere in the world and did not agree to disclose it now. Why not? Because the study proved Roundup was safe? Are you kidding? In Europe, two studies on Roundup toxicity are also hidden in the closet. The European Food Safety Authority and German regulators, Robinson states, have refused requests to release the studies, on the grounds that they are commercially confidential information. No problem. Nothing is riding on the results of those studies except the health of the population of Europe. In 2011, a group called Earth Open Source issued a report: Roundup and birth defects: Is the public being kept in the dark? Robinson writes: The report found that industrys own studies conducted in the 1980s and 1990s showed that glyphosate causes birth defects in experimental animals. While the industry studies themselves are held by the German government and remain secret, the Earth Open Source authors examined Germanys summary report on the studies, which is in the public domain. This report was submitted to the EU Commission and led to glyphosates European approval in 2002. What?! Germanys summary report invented various redefinitions of birth defects that downplayed their significance, and Roundup was approved for sale. And again, the actual studies are being held secret. Lets see. Studies on the toxicity of Roundup are hidden by Monsanto and government regulators. The studies are called corporate property. Thats the justification. We own this science and were not releasing it. But dont worry, its not important, youre safe, Roundup is safe, its all good. Heres the bottom line. If corporate science is used to justify the safety of corporate products, then that science must be made public in every detail, so it can be examined by people who dont owe their souls to the corporations. Anyone who stands in the way of this happening is a rank criminal. But in this respect, we live in a lawless society. Government protects the corporations and itself. The US Justice Department wouldnt arrest and prosecute Monsanto executives who hide toxicity data in a million years. But poisoning Americans? No problem.
