I've previously said about my reservations regarding Bill Gates, that how in the name of charity, he has been covertly doing business for MS in India plus that old grouse as to how the Christian missionaries are being strengthened in the name of aid from the West, but this is altogether something else. And if proved, may Allah bring about his & MS's downfall ASAP. Ameen.
Note:
1. The Taliban had prevented / blocked polio drops in Pakistan administered by the Bill Gates foundation and or its affiliates. Old news.
2.
a) Colin Todhunter is I as far as I know a Socialist, you could call him a
mu'reed (student) of Naom Chomsky and extensively quotes him and his books.
b) But sympathetic to Muslim causes.
3. The story is not India specific as Bill & Melinda Gates foundation is present across the world.
So you've been warned regarding both the sides.
Is Bill Gates using Epicyte gene to control population of poor?
Colin Todhunter, April, 1, 2013:
Whatever the publicly stated aims of the genetically modified organisms (GMOs) sector, and however terrible its impact has been on cotton farmers in India, there is a much more sinister side to this industry.
In order to govern a population, apart from the use of violence, people’s consent must be achieved. Noam Chomsky’s book ‘The Manufacture of Consent’ discusses the important role of the media in this. However, possibly the most basic form of controlling a population is eugenics, a philosophy that includes reduced reproductive capacity of ‘less desired’ people.
There is a growing fear that eugenics is being used for the purpose of population control – to get rid of sections of the world population that are ‘surplus to requirements’. In the West, due to automation and the outsourcing of jobs, there is likely to be a large section of the population that will be permanently unemployed or underemployed. In places like China, Africa and India, promoting birth control has been high on the agenda for some decades.
Millionaire US media baron Ted Turner has stated that a global population of 250-300 million people, a 95 percent decline from present levels, would be ideal. Michael Oppenheimer of the Environmental Defence Fund asserts that the only hope for the world is to make sure there is not another US and that we can’t let other countries have the same number of cars and the amount of industrialisation currently in the US.
Billionaire Bill Gates has pledged hundreds of millions of dollars to improve access to contraception in the developing world. Based on the premise that the world is getting overpopulated, fewer people means elites and the better off can reduce the competition for the resources they covert so much and maintain their current high levels of material consumption. Gates has also purchased shares in Monsanto valued at more than $23 million. His agenda is to help Monsanto get their genetically modified organisms (GMOs) into Africa on a grand scale.
Here’s where things get interesting. In 2001, Monsanto and Du Pont bought a small biotech company called Epicyte that had created a gene that makes the male sperm sterile. In the US, GM foods are already on the market and unlabeled. US citizens have no idea what could be in their food. These foods where not independently tested for their impact on health. Would you like to know whether you are eating stuff that has been proven by Professor Seralini of the University of Caen in France to damage health?
Would you like to know if what you are eating contains something that could make you sterile?
Guiding light
Bill Gates’ father has long been involved with the eugenics group Planned Parenthood. In 2003, Bill Gates admitted that his father used to be the head of Planned Parenthood, which was founded on the concept that most human beings are just reckless breeders. Gates senior is co-chair of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and a guiding light behind the vision and direction of the Gates Foundation, which is heavily focused on forcing GMOs on Africa via its financing of the Alliance for a Green Revolution in Africa (AGRA).
The Gates Foundation has given at least $264.5 million to AGRA. According to a report published in La Via Campesina in 2010, 70 percent of AGRA's grantees in Kenya work directly with Monsanto and nearly
80 percent of the Gates Foundation funding is devoted to biotechnology. The same report explains that the
Gates Foundation has pledged $880 million to create the Global Agriculture and Food Security Program (GAFSP), which is a heavy promoter of GMOs.
Rather than embrace a move towards genuine food sovereignty and address the underlying political and economic issues that breed poverty, billionaire Gates has chosen the promotion of corporate-controlled agriculture.
As the GM sector continues to hammer at India’s door, we have every right to be concerned, not only because of the much reported impact of seed monopolies and GMOs’ well-documented detrimental effects on health and the environment, but also because of concerns over just which genes may be in the foodstuffs that we eat, unbeknown to us.
Researcher F William Engdahl states that genetic engineering cannot be understood without looking at the global spread of US power. Leading figures in the US financed the ‘Green Revolution’ in the agriculture sector of developing countries in order to create new markets for petro-chemical fertilizers and petroleum products, as well as to expand dependency on energy products. Food has now become a weaponised to secure global dominance.
The world’s problems are not being caused by overpopulation, but by greed and a system of ownership that ensures wealth flow from bottom to top. It’s not about stopping countries in their tracks, but about changing a widespread global system and mindset that is based an over reliance on oil and unsustainable depletion of natural resources, with the US being the biggest culprit. Millionaires like Ted Turner believe it should be a case of carry on consuming regardless for the likes of him. This is the ideology of the rich who regard the rest of humanity as a problem to be ‘dealt with.’
Should we be wary of a hugely politically connected sector that has ownership of technology that allows for the genetic engineering of food and a gene that could be used (or already is) for forced sterilization? We should because this is a sector whose stated objective is to control the world’s food chain and, by implication, the global population.
