Blatant Corruption Exposed as EU Blocks Frances Ban on Monsantos GMO MaizeAnthony Gucciardi This should come as no surprise when considering the fact that the United States ambassador to France, a business partner to George W. Bush, stated back in 2007 that nations who did not accept Monsantos GMO crops will be penalized. In fact, ambassador Craig Stapleton went as far as to say that the nations should be threatened with military-style trade wars. Thats right, it appears the reason for the unprecedented move to maintain Monsantos deeply-rooted foothold in France has to do with the fact that the United States and other nations are continually pushing Monsantos agenda even going as far as to threaten military-style trade wars to those who oppose the company. As I reported back in January, WikiLeaks cables surfaced revealing some startling information concerning Monsantos deep involvement with back-end politics. One of the most telling details involves a statement made by Craig Stapleton, in which he said: Country team Paris recommends that we calibrate a target retaliation list that causes some pain across the EU since this is a collective responsibility, but that also focuses in part on the worst culprits. The list should be measured rather than vicious and must be sustainable over the long term, since we should not expect an early victory. Moving to retaliation will make clear that the current path has real costs to EU interests and could help strengthen European pro-biotech voices. And that is not even the most shocking part. WikiLeaks cables go on to state that United States diplomats actually work directly for Monsanto, furthering the agenda of the company across the globe. Is it any wonder that France is being assaulted by the EU over its decision to secure the health of its citizens? Consumers are waking up to Monsantos agenda and the dangers associated with their modified creations. Over 45,000 comments were submitted on the USDA website in opposition to Monsantos new genetically modified strain, and only 23 in favor. The corruption of Monsanto is now out in the open, and only serves to show how deeply rooted the company is within the United States government. Is it any coincidence that a major head of the FDA was a leading employee of Monsanto?
