SUPERWEEDS EMERGE AND TARGET GMOs
Remember the glorious promise of agribusiness in the 1950s? Or even more importantly, the glorious and breathtakingly exciting days of the Administration of George Herbert Walker Bush, when the doctrine of "substantial equivalence" signaled the glorious end to human hunger, vastly expanded crop yields, and other boons to human health? Remember all the confident and assured results of modern science? Remember how we were assured this was "the solution?"
Well, Mr. C.S., a regular reader here found an important article by F. William Engdahl, which points out yet another emerging trend in agriculture that we're certain I.G. Farbensanto, and its new member-corporation, Bayer (of the real I.G. Farben-Carl Duisberg fame).
To set that emerging trend into context, let us recall that IG Farbensanto was quick to reassure the public that their corporate science was thorough and that there were no dangers to GMOs. Then the independent science began to come in, linking cancers in agricultural animal populations to GMO consumption. Then came the studies of human cancer-GMO correlations. Then came Russia's ban on GMOS (the only sane country in the world, in my opinion, on this issue).
Oh but wait... even though those might be a risk in a certain segment of the population, we need GMOs nonetheless, because they dramatically increase crop field yields, and that will mean more food, and more poor people can be fed.
Of course, they weren't telling us that Indian farmers were committing suicide because they could not afford to pay for the more expensive GMO seeds, and of course, more yield and more GMOs mean more money lining the pockets of IG Farbensanto and its shareholders.
But... woops!... then came studies about how, over time, yields in GMO fields actually decreased, while costs of maintaining production increased, relative to good ole mother nature and her natural seeds, which any one can plant without having to pay a royalty or license fee (mother nature's seeds, you see, aren't patented, and therefore IG Farbensanto can't make money from them).
Well, you can add to the list the following:
Will Superweeds Choke GMO to a Timely Death in USA?
The problem is that Mother Nature can react faster than the Rockefailure interests can strategize its plots and cabals:
Now with ruthlessness against the crass violation of natural law that is inherent in the entire GMO eugenics experiment, nature is waging its own clever war on GMO crops in the USA. And make no mistake, the intent of the Rockefeller Foundation in funding the creation of GMO back in the 1970’s was and still is just that–eugenics.
It seems that the lies of Monsanto-Bayer, Dow-Dupont, ChemChina-Syngenta are coming back to haunt them. Far from their widely advertised claim that their patented GMO seeds need far less chemical weed-killers, USA farmers are finding out, over a period of years, that their crop acreages sprayed with ample doses of Roundup or other glyphosate-based weed-killers are fostering the growth of toxic Superweeds. Those superweeds are “glyphosate-resistant” meaning the Monsanto and other glyphosate weed-killers are useless. Farmers are forced to pour on other toxic weed-killer options to salvage their crops.
Three-quarters US prime Farmland
An alarming new study has just been published by the University of Illinois Plant Clinic highly relevant and highly ignored by mainstream irresponsible media. The study took some 593 field samples of approximately 2,000 waterhemp and palmer amaranth (pigweed) plants from ten farm states across the USA Midwest, the heartland of world agriculture, or at least until recently. They conducted careful testing and found the alarming results that across America’s farmbelt, 456 of the whole 593 field sites sampled showed Glyphosate Resistance – a total of 76.8%.
In other words, plant GMO seeds, and over time, your field will require more and more pesticides to deal with the super-resistant weeds. The bottom line: you have to love it, because in their greed and utter lack of respect for the principles of independent science, and for that matter, humanity itself, the GMO companies like Farbensanto are going to be hit - one can only hope hard - in their pocket books. The reason? today it's a trickle, but tomorrow it will be a flood: farmers are avoiding their products because of their cost (and falling yields):
The good news in this chronicle of nature’s stubbornness against mans’ stupidity is that more and more USA farmers are deciding to abandon GMO crops and return to non-GMO conventional seeds. Bill Giles, an Illinois farmer using GMO seeds since 2009 is planning to return to conventional non-GMO crops. He told Sustainable Pulse, “GM crops are on the edge of failure in the US as farmers are asked to fork out more and more money on herbicides to try to control the superweeds. We simply can’t afford it! It is near the end of the road for these crops and many of my friends in the Midwest are on the edge of turning back to conventional farming methods.”
Man and nature need to restore the natural harmony of life and nowhere more urgently than in restoring a natural food chain free from test-tube machinations to produce monstrosities such as GMO corn or GMO salmon whose true effects on humans is entirely unknown.
(Emphasis added)
Of course we fully expect IG Farbensanto to resort to the tried and true and red, white and blue American practice of buying off the government, and trying to mandate GMOs. Of course, it won't work, and I can only add that today it takes no high octane speculation: all I can add is a hearty Amen to Mr. Engdahl's closing remarks italicized above.
See you on the flip side...

we all seem to be missing the same point as usual. even you doc. even as we all try to wrap our minds around the concept of breakaway’s.

then again walking dead seems to get it. ya think we can get walking and vomito to write a plot (series or mini series) along that line. how hard can it be to get a youtube channel to produce it? who’s got the crowdfund think cranked up?
alright, i was wrong. alot more of us get it than i initially read. i still think the walking vomito youtube channel is a viable means of income for all of us. we can work in another channel similar to thug notes for books like this:

Nature always corrects itself.
the trick is how do we be that nature that corrects instead of the nature that gets corrected?
So they stop using GMO. Good. Now can we get them to stop spraying conventional crops at harvest with Roundup to “dessicate” (dry) the crop evenly by killing it?
Time to ban glyphosate is long past.
This post has me revisiting the concept of super-chickens.
The people who rule the world today have given us the most brutal epoch in history and, currently, a collection of military dictatorships couple with banktatorships, totalitarian societies, racist-exploitative “representative republics”, and super-resource gobbling states.
Sadly, this sickness of exploitation has been spreading as a contagion for several thousand years. It transforms hitherto free people into super-chickens[as it were]with an especially intense and brutal Pecking Order. This PECKING ODER[ranks, social class, castes, and son on] is what maintains this system of exploitation that continually degrades the masses who become its ordered victims.
There are three kinds of people in this world.
Those who can count, and those who can’t.
Sorry man. I accidentally clicked the report instead of reply. I hope it doesn’t cause you any grief in posting. Mods, my bad.
The crass destruction makes me think there is something to Michael Bradley’s “The Iceman Inheritance” and “Esau’s Empire”. Maybe we need to dilute that Neanderthal DNA out of our Cro-Magon DNA.
Sorry but you can’t lead this company/country. You’ve got too much Neanderthal DNA. Marry a nice Cro-Magnon girl/guy and maybe your kids will be eligible.
good one rb. recently read roger h lincoln’s quote:
there are two rules for success: 1) never tell everything you know.
No one ever could have foreseen someone crashing airplanes into buildings.
Oops, sorry! I meant, no one ever could have foreseen that Nature would NOT allow a vacuum.
Oops, I mean…. Oh, never mind. Look! Over there, a squirrel! No, I mean a terrorist!
Oh, just forget it. Just eat your GMO burger and keep quiet.
Kind of the ‘perfect storm’ forming here. On the one hand, farmers starting to go off of GMO crops due to herbicide costs, etc. The result will be a greatly-increased need for manual labor to care for the ‘natural’ crops, just like before GMOs. On the other side, there is the fanatical push to restrict the manual labor from entering the country from the south. Go out into the fields; see how many Caucasians are stooped-over tending the crops. A ‘perfect storm’ forming here…
Also, the really-sad news in the GMO picture is that it could have worked to mankind’s benefit. Slow-but-steady progress has been made over the centuries to adapt native plants to mankind’s needs. Choosing which seeds to propagate is still a mild form of genetic manipulation. Not to mention cross-breeding similar species – hybrid tea roses, anyone? If the PTB were not so blatantly capitalistic and anti-humanity, the GMO movement would still be seen as one of humanity’s best efforts. I hope that we can get back to ‘slow-but-steady’ progress to REALLY benefit mankind (without trashing Nature)…
A weed or pest animal is a living flora or fauna who’s function in the biosphere is not known understood or ignored. This horror story goes back at lest to to the made made famines of the British Empire in Ireland India eugenics is just polite slang for genocide. Our elites idea of paradise the pod people of Invasion Of The Body Snatchers or the anime Kill Ala Kill.
Off topic-Are the Vidchats no longer recorded? I have listened to everyone until November. When I select one it lists the title and that is all. I really want to hear them again. Thanks
Aren’t we in fact superweeds ourselves resisting the poisons of the mega-corporations’ media disinformation? Perhaps all deplorables are superweeds now as we become immune to the corporate propaganda and grow stronger every day. And there is no greater superweed patch then the Gizadeath star community as we never fail to find the cracks in the pavement of lies that were meant to keep us from absorbing the light of truth. May we all continue to grow until all government and corporate plants among us get choked out and dwindle and die (or have go back to playing video games in their parents’ basement).
I notice that some of the people around me that survive on just processed foods are getting enormous also and seem to be resistant to the chemicals in there food as well. I wonder if this translates to resistance to meds and if this could perhaps be a boon to the giant pharmaceutical companies who will just order their high priests in the medical industry to up the doses on these human superweeds.
I also can’t help but think this is a ploy by the big agriculture businesses to make a case for bringing in more Mexicans to pick these out of control weeds. I can only imagine the scare tactics they will use: telling us we will all starve if we don’t bring in more Mexicans, etc.
VB, well said! (In your first comment.) I have often wondered if earth-plane is a ‘finishing school’ for learning all the subtleties of deceit, manipulation, etc. One can’t just hide-out on the astral plane, etc., if one has a body to take care of (or a family). You have to ‘engage’, and take the hits while learning the ropes. A process similar-to the hardening-off of plants, before going-on to wherever we go.
The Gizadeathstar community is certainly a premier place to ‘compare notes’ with other learners, often accompanied-with the required dose of sarcasm and wit. Raises glass to all… Thanks.
in other words we gotta learn to lie cheat steal murder mayhem loot pillage rape our way into evolving into something better? are you sure this is the local (insert your organization’s name here (ex masonic, christian, islamic, jewish,……)) lodge, church, temple,….? i thought we were going to have to learn how to be nicer to be better.
You probably have to look a bit deeper for the agenda here. The goal is not to feed the population of the earth but to slowly, over time, bankrupt the independent farmers, so their land can be purchased cheaply buy the “agricultural corporations”. This means more deadly food can be grown to slowly kill off the population through disease and famine thus providing profits not only for them but for their “big Pharma” interests as well as their “humanitarian aid” charities. In the meantime, all the water rights are being purchased by other branches of their global corporations and they are dumping their industrial waste on our heads via “chemtrails” in order to save the money required to properly dispose of it, which also adds to the slow kill and profits of the drug companies whose products “may” fix one problem while their side effects cause many more problems thus leading to more profit for “drugs” to fix those issues in an endless cycle of human destruction. Mandated vaccines are another part of the plan, along with all the other “government regulations” pushed through our purchased government all meant to keep the sheep docile, stupid, and ignorant of what’s happening to them.
The ignorant masses are being “programmed” by the television, newspapers, and magazines to accept all of this as “beneficial” and in their best interests by the media arms of these same global corporations. This will not stop until they own it all through attrition. Once they get impatient enough, there is always the global warfare option to hurry the process along while they sit it out inside there already prepared “safe spaces”.
I could go on and on, but those that visit this site are aware of all this.
sure worked well in india so far, eh?
Yeh… Universe and human stupidity.. I dont think that there is any other species anywhere who’s stupid enough to poison its own food supply.
I mean, there’s stupid.. then there is criminally insane. Then there’s Monsanto.
Look, its really really really simple. Take all the Monsanto Board of Directors and give them ONLY food that has had Roundup dumped on it for its entire growth cycle.
The problem will be solved in about 2-3 weeks. Ah.. And force feed it to their family as well. Might as well let their (rather than mine) children reap the benefits of their evil.
ps you see what I did there? Quoted a jew to complain about IG Farben.. 🙂
I always wonder about what the elite eat. Except for Bill Clinton, we don’t really know what they put on their tables. I doubt very much it would be a chemical junk fest.
