What if the deadly e-coli outbreak in Germany that was blamed on organic sprouts with no direct proof, but through circumstantial evidence only, was instituted as part of a deliberate campaign to sway public opinion in favor of compliance with Codex regulations and to call for the irradiation of organic seeds?
Whether the contamination came from the water, seeds, was genetically engineered in a lab specifically for this purpose, or was a natural and unreported product of the genetic engineering process and high rate of GM contamination we are currently experiencing, makes no difference at this point to the people, and I use that term lightly, who are taking advantage of every situation to turn it to their favor and make a fast buck off others’ misery.
While strolling the net, I hear a lot of buzz lately about how dirty organic processing is because free-range cattle poop on the ground where plants are grown that people eat, and that all organic seeds should be irradiated to kill the deadly e-coli pathogens inherent in this system. That is the spin, based on half-truths and outright lies. The truth is, organic farming has proven to be safer and healthier than its factory farm cousins. Poop from organic, free-range cows that lands on the soil is not the problem. I grow my veggies in organic poop, and have never been sick from a head of cabbage, bean sprout, or beet. So, either this latest “threat” in the form of e-coli was a concocted event intended to lead to the eradication of organics or simply an advantageous situation that is being exploited by the powers that be. Either way, here is a possible anticipated outcome:
Organic sprouts are blamed for a deadly e-coli outbreak. To remediate this, irradiation of all organic SEEDS will be called for as per Codex guidelines, and instituted as a process for the National Organics Program in order to retain certification. Simple. Kill true organics from the inside out, and leave the door open for the likes of Monsanto et al to completely take over ALL food supplies without firing a shot.
If this plan should work, then this could signify the end of organic food as we know it. Period. Spread the word. Maybe we can nip this in the bud before it grows too big. Meanwhile, grow and save your own seed from clean sources, teach others to do the same, and spread this movement just as far and wide as possible to save as many people as possible, or we can simply kiss organics and our health goodbye, and say hello to complete food control via Codex Alimentarius and your friendly USDA.

A most enlightening and informative set of comments. Thankfully not corrupted by denialists and corporatists who have been anything but open and honest over the last few years.
I too have read much on the subject of this e.coli outbreak and it doesn’t take a degree in microbiology to know that the very components of this new strain of e.coli could never come together naturally or by a naturally occurring accident.
The fact that it has also been shown to contain a gene component from the plague bacterium along with several other components that give it immunity is a little bit beyond the scale of believeable coincidence.
No this has been deliberately released after being constructed in a laboratory. After that it has been reported several times by supposedly reputable science institutes that they have used novel methods to track the source and every report from official sources steers clear of identifying the entire list of components that make up this e.cole strain or where it may or may not have originated (other than on an organic farming establishment).
The reasons speak for themselves. By destroying consumer confidence in organic food the recent sustainable rise in sales will be halted. Yes, organic food has been holding up well economically despite the recession and that has been against the agenda of corporations with control on their mind. So what better way to destroy the competition like they are tryingh to do with herbal and vitamin supplements? By doing that the big corporations will, as has been said in the article and repeated in the comments, control the entire food and drugs production market and you and I will become outlaws if we grow and consume our own homegrown food.
My final point is a simple one and was mentioned also in the article. I want to emphasise just how important it is to save seeds from all your naturally growing crops. Heritage types as well as the more common varieties. Save the lot and share them far and wide but above all else save them quietly and discreetly. If the bullies in government get wind of a mass dissention by the people they will do a ‘Syria and Bahrain’ on you! Don’t know what that is? Who holds the balance of power in these countries? Who has been persecuted? The majority of the people in both countries are being suppressed and opressed. They are also being shot(murdered)by the military. It isn’t beyond the realms of imagination to see the same being done in developed countries under the auspices of controlling terrorist activity.
Now define ‘Terrorists’.
Stay free and living.

Unfortunately you are correct.
After much ferreting out of information I finally figured out what is actually going on.
Sourcewatch has a very eye opening article on the Rockefeller/Pharmaceutical/Farming connections…. Can you say the Nazi horror gutlag Auschwitz, a 100% subsidiary of IG Farben?! There is a direct link to our present day drug companies!!!!
“….After WWII, IG Farben attempted to shake its abominable image through corporate restructuring and renaming. So great has been their success that the public has no idea that it many of the men responsible for such atrocities, were able to carry on their work even after the collapse of the Nazi regime. Namely, a medical paradigm that relies almost exclusively highly toxic drugs. Such men were in control of the large chemical and pharmaceutical companies, both well before and after Hitler. The Nuremberg Tribunal convicted 24 IG Farben board members and executives on the basis of mass murder, slavery and other crimes. Incredibly, most of them had been released by 1951 and continued to consult with German corporations. The Nuremberg Tribunal dissolved IG Farben into Bayer, Hoechst and BASF, each company 20 times as large as IG Farben in 1944. For almost three decades after WWII, BASF, Bayer and Hoechst (Aventis) filled their highest position, chairman of the board, with former members of the Nazi regime….“ http://www.sourcewatch.org/ind....._interests
What is the Main Thread throughout the history of the destruction of the USA and other free nations????
The Fabian Society
The Fabians have been educating World and Banking leader’s for a century via the Rhodes Scholarships (as in Clinton who ratified the WTO) and the London School of Economics. Tony Blair, the UK’s Prime Minster, was chair of the Fabian Society before becoming Prime Minister and is now working for the investment bank JP Morgan Chase in of all places the Middle East.
Once you see the connection everything that has been happening in the last 100 years becomes glaringly obvious.
The failure of the US education system??? John Dewey, Father of “Modern PROGRESSIVE Education” was a founding member of the American Fabian Society. See Dumbing Down America by Dr. Samuel Blumenfeld: http://www.ordination.org/dumbing_down.htm
From Wiki:
“Founded in 1895 by Fabian Society members Sidney Webb, Beatrice Webb and George Bernard Shaw,[4] LSE joined the University of London in 1900 and degrees were issued to its students from 1902 onwards. Despite its name LSE conducts teaching and research across the entire range of the social sciences, including accounting and finance, anthropology, economics, geography, history, international relations, law, media and communications, philosophy, politics, psychology, social policy and sociology…
LSE is among the world’s most selective universities and in 2008 had the lowest undergraduate admissions rate of any university in Britain.[8][9] It has a highly international student body,[10] and at one time had more countries represented by students than the UN has members.[11] LSE has produced many notable alumni in the fields of law, economics, business, literature and politics. There are currently 16 Nobel Prize winners[12] amongst LSE’s alumni and current and former staff, as well as 34 world leaders and numerous Pulitzer Prize winners and fellows of the British Academy.[13]… “

….”A stained-glass window from the Beatrice Webb House in Surrey, England is especially enlightening. Across the top appears the last line from Omar Khayyam:
Dear love, couldst thou and I with fate conspire
To grasp this sorry scheme of things entire,
Would we not shatter it to bits, and then
Remould it nearer to the heart’s desire!
Beneath the line Remould it nearer to the heart’s desire, the mural depicts Shaw and Webb striking the earth with hammers. Across the bottom, the masses kneel in worship of a stack of books advocating the theories of socialism. Thumbing his nose at the docile masses is H.G. Wells who, after quitting the Fabians, denounced them as “the new machiavellians.” The most revealing component, however, is the Fabian crest which appears Between Shaw and Webb. It is a wolf in sheep’s clothing!” http://www.freedom-force.org/f.....bianwindow

First, Grass fed cattle are more resistant to e-coli. For info on scientific tests SEE: http://www.eatwild.com/foodsafety.html
Also Grass fed cattle have fewer campylobacter bacteria: two percent vs Fifty-eight percent of the cattle raised in a feedlot.
Second, I hate to say it but we have already lost the war. Control of our food supply has been turned over to the international Ag Cartel.
The new food law explicitly states:
SEC. 404. <> COMPLIANCE WITH INTERNATIONAL AGREEMENTS.
Nothing in this Act (or an amendment made by this Act) shall be construed in a manner inconsistent with the agreement establishing the World Trade Organization or any other treaty or international agreement to which the United States is a party.
http://www.fda.gov/Food/FoodSa.....247548.htm
Earlier the FDA stated
“The harmonization of laws, regulations and standards between and among trading partners requires intense, complex, time-consuming negotiations by CFSAN officials. Harmonization must simultaneously facilitate international trade and promote mutual understanding, while protecting national interests and establish a basis to resolve food issues on sound scientific evidence in an objective atmosphere. [b]i[]Failure to reach a consistent, harmonized set of laws, regulations and standards within the freetrade agreements and the World Trade Organization Agreements can result in considerable economic repercussions…”

I don’t blame you nedlud. The question still remains :accident or intentional? I don’t think there’s any question. Absolutely intentional. The e-coli is resistant to 8, count ’em, EIGHT types of antibiotics. The only way this organism could develop such a resistance is to be exposed to those antibiotics in a lab. The ONLY way. Just like the infamous swine flu or “Mexican flu” which contained 3 different genetic strains bird, human and pig, these organisms don’t occur naturally.
What we’re facing is deliberate genocide. It’s bio-terrorism pure and simple and it’s not small time terrorists. This is governments at work.
Thanks Doug Girard.
Listen to me folks: Our family farm produced milk for Organic Valley from January 2000 until September 2008. We also belonged to NFO. We thought, originally, that these organizations represented us, were interested in our survival and our economic health ane well being. Nothing could have been further from the truth. Both Organic Valley and NFO, take their orders from the ‘higher ups’ in government and industry. They were very abusive to us, in particular, whenever there was some question as to who properly, has authority to decide “procedure” and “what should be done”. In all cases, they (NFO, Organic Valley) claimed absolute authority. They have no interest in listening to the farmer or his/her opinions and experience(s). There is a very strong hierarchy of corporate control and power that exists in the world today. It is exactly like organized crime, exactly. It is in fact, organized crime at a level greater than ever seen before in history. Some call it now a “scientific dictatorship” because it is so aided and abetted by hi-tech science methodology and instrumentation. Propaganda, in the name of “science” and “progress” is the game, with the best propagandists and most loyal partners in the deception, receiving the greatest favor and monetary blessing. All this is done, at the expense and through the inflicted sufferings of the common and ordinary individual and/or local community. The person, the family, and the village/community are rendered, INVALID, except to receive further orders, dictates and abuse.
When I tried to stand up to the abuse administered by Organic Valley, and confronted them, they almost immediately saw to it that our farm was destroyed economically. Lies, and unlawful “laws” were employed. The NFO people, aided exclusively, in this action. No one, not one person from either of these organizations, lifted a finger in the defense of us. I appealed to many people, but not one would help. Not one and this included when I sought help from other so-called family farm groups and individuals too.
In closing, I can only say four more words: I HATE THEM ALL.
nedlud
@bob…..I believe nedlud’s point, and it is a valid one, is that the larger organic producer’s have often been for, and even lobbied on behalf of, the degradation of organic standards. One has only to look at who owns many of the most successful natural foods brands to see that corporate food suppliers have entered the market in a big way. And, not only because organics are profitable, but to be in a position to force changes in the industry. Those changes are not typically for the benefit of consumers, or the integrity of organics. Codex will be coming to America. Herbs and other supplements will be banned. Natural health practitioners will be hassled and forced from business. With the advent of GMO’s, and cross-pollination, “sort of” or “kind of” organic will soon be about the best one can do. Also, what impact is radiation from Japan, and chemtrails in the air having on “Organic?” The poisoning is well underway. one does the best they can; and people like those who operate Farm Wars are the first line of defense against the food Nazis. But, like the warmongers and the moneychangers, the corporate food whores have power and money on their side. It is an uphill battle fighting for food purity, and ground is continually being lost, no matter the effort.
Texana,
Whole Foods was not bought by Monsanto. Whole Foods opted to try the “coexistence” route when it realized that GMOs were continuing to flood the food supply. Not the best of decisions since Ronnie Cummins of the Organic Consumers Association decided to deflect the heat off himself by creating a sensation around Whole Foods. Are you aware that the Organic Consumers Association was funded by Rockefeller, Tides, and Merck? This organization attacked Whole Foods right after the news about this funding reached the public eye. I’d say the deflection was a success. Here is the story: Food Freedom Betrayal. I have received numerous e-mails telling me that it is not the same Rockefeller, not the same Merck, and so on. People got very angry when I broke this story. Evidently when the truth hits the fan, the popular thing to do is shoot the messenger. My response? Yes, it is the same Rockefeller and the same Merck. The money dole is on the tax records for anyone to see. All Ronnie Cummins had to do was say “yes, we took money from them, but will not do it again.” Instead he chose to deny the truth and mount an offensive strategy to deflect heat. It worked.
Dear Barbara,
This e-coli has 2 unique DNA sequences never seen before! Like the H1N1 it was manufactured.
Are you aware that Monsanto has just bought Whole Foods?
Thank Barb for your exellent article. In my opinion German E-Coli was a well planned USDA-CIA attack in Europe to test german response!
Crops and cattle are never found together, as the one will TRAMPLE the other. It’s the reason they have FENCES! That claim is pure hogwash. Catle are grazed in grass areas while crops are segregated elsewhere.
Codex is just hyper propaganda
Here in Australia the blocks of land to build a house on, have become ridiculously small. Up until now i believed that it was because of the greed of developers and councils (more blocks on area of land, so greater income for those I have mentioned) After reading articles such as yours, maybe it is also to make sure the population have nowhere to augment there food supply from a backyard garden. I am fortunate to be able to produce fresh vegetables on my lot in well manured ground.I know what has been applied both above & below ground.
Come to Ukraine! It may be the last country left where poor peasants still do grow real food…
It truly has amazed me to what lengths some will go through in the name of money, competition, power and greed. I’m no longer amazed, but awakened.
@nedlub…what your saying makes no absolutely no sense and sounds like corporate spin, shill..ish!
The best organic is grown as local as possible, knowing the animals, the plants and the farmers. You don’t just grow food, you grow a community that produces the food.
It’s hard to believe now, but I once thought that ‘organics’ offered some hope. I once thought that organizations like Organic Valley had some genuine concern about what was happening to agriculture….
….I was wrong.
The only real ‘organics’ (producing health and well-being) are the kind practiced by people getting abused, even arrested and losing their farms. Same old story.
SAME OLD STORY.
Living rurally, it’s impossible to stretch my imagine far enough to believe that there are people who truly believe that ignoring the circle of life will somehow produce better results.
In our huge organic garden we use all natural imputs. Which means, we gather up our horse, goat and llama manure along with urine soaked straw and allow it to age. Having too many things to do, we let the compost sit over the winter, don’t bother to turn it and allow nature to take it’s course.
When it’s ready, it’s beautiful and applied to the no till garden and produced an amazing bounty. This is the natural circle of life. Eat fresh, healthy food from the garden, give the outer leaves or other organic waste to the goats, chickens etc and then in turn provide the life giving nutrients to put back into the soil.
Since Fukushima, we now add Zeolite to the soil so that it binds the radioactive elements and prevents them from uptaking into the plants that we eat. I guarantee that the organic produce you buy in the supermarket isn’t able to make the same claim, but you can if you grow some of your own food,
Real people, real food, real manure!
