Fukushima Radiation Detected Across Europe posted by Lee Ferran via stele, 2011-11-12 00:27:24
The hunt is on for the source of low level radiation detected in the atmosphere "across Europe" over the past weeks, nuclear officials said today. Trace amounts of iodine-131, a type of radiation created during the operation of nuclear reactors or in the detonation of a nuclear weapon, were detected as early as three weeks ago by Austrian authorities and then two weeks ago by the Czech Republic's State Office for Nuclear Safety. Today the International Atomic Energy Agency released a statement revealing similar detections had been made "in other locations across Europe." (full story)

Big Pharma, leave our kids alone! posted by Jill Stark via stele, 2011-08-20 22:58:52
The sickening attempt by Pharmaceutical Company AstraZeneca, to addict and manipulate behaviour in developing children is nothing less than Nazism. It is almost inconceivable today that this 'trial' should have progressed to this stage before being rightfully REJECTED. Give 15-year-old children a break and let them develop naturally, for Christ's sake! In the absence of obvious psychosis such 'trials' on minors border on criminality. It is not a matter of label warnings and side effects, it is a matter of free human development, NOT a chemically controlled population and more PROFITS for BIG PHARMA, as 'some' would like to have it!

More Healing Wisdom from the East posted by Lakshmi Gopal via sadh, 2011-07-23 00:13:00
When we view the REALITY NATO and the US have given the World over the past decade, the character of this marauding evil becomes clear, no assistance required to determine the ugliness and homicidal EVIL . Yet WE subscribe, either by passive acceptance, DENIAL or COMPLACENCY! Choose well the REALITY and WORLD in which you would either live happily or die/suffer miserably. Withdraw your active and passive support from the evil American Empire and reject its poisonous ideology of inequality, death, greed, permanent war and destruction. (full story)

Farmers call for end to CSIRO genetically modified wheat trials posted by staff report via gan, 2011-07-15 11:25:56
Greenpeace is joined by an Oz farmers group concerned over the threat that GM wheat presents to our multi-million dollar wheat industry. Farmers are demanding that government cease all trials of GM wheat in Australia.

If Canberra's boot-licking attitude to US Corporatists doesn't cease soon, especially since allowing the most dangerous and evil Corporation on the planet (Monsanto) to jeopardise our food sovereignty, then the entire parliament must be jettisoned in favour of representative Independents. Gillard is but the latest boot-licking yank lackey PM after Rudd and Washington servant, Howard.

Onya Greenpeace for taking action against a Canberra experimental GM wheat farm. Your efforts have been rewarded with support from many quarters -- killer seed Company Monsanto requires 'killing' themselves! Oz Food Sovereignty MUST be protected from killer-seeds Monsanto and other GM food Companies at all costs.

Toxins from GM foods found in the blood of unborn babies posted by Sean Poulter via gan, 2011-05-25 09:27:47
Frankenfood producers LIE YET AGAIN!

It seems that killing bees and bats en masse is not enough; now Monsanto and other Frankenfood companies are killing humans. The entire notion of GM or Frankenfoods is ANATHEMA. Stop these vile Corporations before they irreversibly pollute (cross-pollination) our natural food supply and end humanity.
