The New York Times a mouthpiece of the biotech lobby

The New York Times seems to be a scientifically-illiterate mouthpiece of the biotech lobby. The current scenario unfolding on a global scale - in compliance with Kissinger's and other shenanigans' depopulation plan - is downright diabolical and criminal! Create famines to coerce the world population to accept genetically modified food products laced with pesticides, bacteria and viruses. Example: the most commonly used promoter in genetic engineering is the cauliflower mosaic virus, closely related to the Hepatitis B and HIV virus, which, due to its recombination hotspot, is prone to break and join with other DNA to integrate into the cell's genome, which could activate host genes and lead to cancer. Due to its ability to propagate in plant and insect hosts after recombination it may also recombine with related Hepatitis B and HIV to create a most powerful disease in a large number of people consuming large numbers of virus genes incorporated into crop plants. What a scoop for the multi-billion dollar cancer and AIDS industry! Not one single human safety study has ever been conducted and you and me are the human guinea pigs that fill the coffers of the biotech-shenanigans. Likewise, there is no such thing as "substantial equivalence" which was coined by scientifically-illiterate lawyers of Monsanto and in 1992 written into law by George Bush sn. who proclaimed GM plants to be "substantially equivalent" to their traditional counterparts and therefore did not need any special health safety study or testing. Ethical scientists and researchers consider this the biggest farce and fraud ever committed in the science field. By refusing mandatory labeling and adhering to the precautionary principle, both the US and South African government keep violating the individual's right to bodily integrity, the latter being the most significant provision of the Nuremberg Code, which sets forth the legal requirements for human experimentation, i.e. " voluntary consent of the human subject is absolutely essential". Likewise, the 1948 Universal Declaration of Human Rights declares bodily integrity central to both human rights and human dignity and the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights unmistakably declares that "no one shall be subjected without his free consent to medical or scientific experimentation". Both governments are sacrificing the nation's health for corporate greed. One does not need a PhD in genetics to see the correlation between GMOs and the sharp rise in all sorts of diseases, in particular cancer, HIV and multi-drug resistant tuberculosis caused by horizontal gene transfer. Say NO to GMOs!
