Millions Protest over Brazilian Regulation to Allow Genetic Extinction Technology

– Millions Protest over Brazilian Regulation to Allow Genetic Extinction Technology:

The largest rural movements in Brazil, representing well over a million farmers, are protesting a new Brazilian regulation that would allow release of gene drives, the controversial genetic extinction technology, into Brazil’s ecosystems and farms.

On February 3rd and 4th, the National Coalition of Farmworkers and Rural, Water and Forest Peoples met near São Paulo, Brazil and sounded the alarm about new Brazilian regulatory changes – a resolution passed on January 15th by Brazil’s National Technical Commission on Biosafety that would allow the release of gene drive organisms into the environment.  The effect of this change is that Brazil becomes the first country in the world to establish a legal channel for the release of gene drives into the environment. The new rule could potentially make it even easier to release a living gene drive organism than a GMO seed.

The farmers organizations are concerned about agribusiness giants spreading more transgenic seeds, but also attempts to directly change the nature of wild plants and animals.

In Blow To US Dollar, BRICS Considers ‘Sanctions-Proof’ Cryptocurrency

by

– In Blow To US Dollar, BRICS Considers ‘Sanctions-Proof’ Cryptocurrency:

While the US Dollar remains the most popular global trading and reserve currency, this is rapidly changing. A BRICS backed cryptocurrency may be both the proverbial ‘Dollar buster’ as well as a ‘sanctions buster’.

The Head of the Russian Direct Investment Fund (RDIF) Kirill Dmitriev has stated that the BRICS may opt to create their own cryptocurrency for the purposes of global commerce.

A cryptocurrency is a digitally based means of exchange wherein the value of said currency is not determined by a central-bank. Most cryptocurrencies can be converted into state-issued currencies (Dollars, Euros, Yuan, etc.) through various foreign exchange services.

Currently, one of the biggest issues facing cryptocurrency development is the fact that they are not backed up by any central bank. However, many also see this apparent disadvantage as a possible opportunity, particularly where unilateral Dollar based sanctions are concerned.

After terrorizing America with Zika scaremongering, Washington Post now admits Zika virus doesn’t cause brain deformities after all

– After terrorizing America with Zika scaremongering, Washington Post now admits Zika virus doesn’t cause brain deformities after all:

The entire leftist media is not merely dishonest and corrupt, their science writers are unbelievably stupid and ill-informed about nearly everything in the natural world. Today, after months of printing fear-inducing “Zika terrorism” stories that scared America half to death while convincing the government to funnel billions of dollars into Zika vaccine research for Big Pharma, the Washington Post now admits it had no idea what it was talking about.

Zika Hoax: 12,000 women infected with Zika, all gave birth to healthy babies

by

As a side note:

A healthy body cannot get sick and cannot be conquered.

First you have to destroy the people’s health in order to make them sick.

TPTB are experts on how to do exactly that.

– Zika Hoax: 12,000 women infected with Zika, all gave birth to healthy babies:

Evidence that the Zika virus causes birth defects is weak at best, as most studies linking the two are based on “epidemiological statistics, not rigorous scientific studies of cause and effect,” as the Health Ranger observed in recent months.

The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports that Zika, transmitted primarily through the Aedes Aegypti mosquito, can be passed from a pregnant women to her fetus, resulting in an infection that may cause certain birth defects.

The agency maintains that a Zika infection during pregnancy can result in microcephaly, a severe birth defect causing decreased head circumference and smaller brain size.

Hacktivists Reveal Many US Olympians Were Allowed To Taking Banned Substances

by

– Hacktivists Reveal Many US Olympians Were Allowed To Taking Banned Substances:

A second batch of secret data from the World Anti-Doping Agency’s database of athletes who took part in the 2016 Rio Olympics was released by the hacking group Fancy Bears; the list includes 10 ‘doping addicts’ from the US and five more from Britain.

The hacktivist group Fancy Bears published a second batch of the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA)’s medical data on athletes who took part in the 2016 Rio Olympic Games.

The publication came just a few days after Fancy Bears leaked alleged WADA documents showing that the agency had allowed US tennis players Serena and Venus Williams, as well as Olympic gold-winning gymnast Simone Biles and basketball star Elena Delle Donne to take banned substances for ‘therapeutic’ purposes.

Brazil Admits Zika Is NOT Causing Birth Defects

by

– Brazil admits Zika is not causing birth defects:

Allegations made by the government and establishment media that birth defects in the form of microcephaly in the Americas are caused by the Zika virus are quickly waning. Doctors in Brazil are “quietly acknowledging” that Zika may not be responsible for causing birth defects after all.

“We suspect that something more than Zika virus is causing the high intensity and severity of cases,” Fatima Marinho, director of information and health analysis at Brazil’s Health Ministry told the journal Nature in a late July interview.

Research conducted by the New England Complex Systems Institute found extremely low occurrences of birth defects among Colombian women infected with the Zika virus, meaning there must be another cause.

New study finds no cases of microcephaly among pregnant women infected with Zika

The study observed 12,000 pregnant women living in Colombia infected with the virus, and none of them gave birth to a baby with microcephaly.

Zika propaganda is a ‘virus of the mind’ rooted in fabricated hysteria, government junk science and dark political agendas

– Zika propaganda is a ‘virus of the mind’ rooted in fabricated hysteria, government junk science and dark political agendas:

An article that I’m calling “the most important piece of investigative journalism yet published about Zika” has just appeared at Health Impact News.

The article, found at this link, confirms and documents what I’ve been saying about Zika virus all along: It’s all a grand quack science HOAX rooted in political agendas, not legitimate medical science.

The article is written by John P. Thomas, and I’m reprinting a portion of it here while encouraging you to get the full article at Health Impact News. It reveals that just like every other mass hysteria pandemic propaganda campaign launched by the CDC, the WHO and Big Pharma, Zika propaganda is a “masterpiece of public mind control”.
