 The
WASTING LANDS - Page 4
A multinational master plan ?
Since all of the evidence points to the fact that TSEs are caused by a
clear cut combination of genetic and toxic environmental factors, why do
the authorities worldwide continue to handle these diseases as if they
stem from highly infectious origins?
I can only assume that the rigid adherence of Establishment bodies to
the reductionist mindset - regardless of whatever new evidence comes to
light - merely betrays the current global
agenda to depopulate livestock numbers for reasons that have
nothing whatsoever to do with health risks to the human race.
The true picture is one of a mere handful of politically-motivated,
sociopathic pseudo scientists who predominate the upper echelons of
the UK's and EU’s agricultural and scientific ministries.
These incestuous “experts” are singing for their supper. They are on
the pay role of the global corporations whose sole interest lies in
forcing open a market place for their GM arable protein products.
Powerful organisations who have no interest in making life easy for
their competitors; eg; those of us who are trying to make a living out
of selling livestock proteins.
We
only have to ask ourselves who are the key culprits that are currently
capitalising on the fashionable scare stories which maintain that “BSE
prions will exterminate us all”? - the multinationals.
Who
is spinning out the propaganda myths that beef, lamb, venison, game and
organic food (grown from animal manure) are contaminated with prions;
and are therefore unfit for human consumption ? - the multinationals!
We must remain aware that these corporations have invested billions of
bucks in researching and developing their GM arable protein crops and
the complementary package of pesticides to go with them. They have
bought up oceans of acres of dirt cheap arable land across Eastern
Europe, the Third World and North/South America and they are clearly
going to attempt to smash anyone competing for “their” protein
market who gets in the way.
Despite the scare mongering, a basic study of the history of CWD clearly
demonstrates that this disease does NOT originate from deer to deer
contact. Despite such a simple observation, a manic mindset has recently
gripped the whole US nation who have jumped to the assumption that this
disease stems solely from hyper infectious origins. Any evidence put
forward for an environmental cause has been blindly ignored. In this
respect, the recent discovery of another cluster of CWD in Wisconsin has
invoked an official overreaction of unprecedented proportion – a wholesale slaughter policy has been enacted throughout CWD
endemic regions across the USA.
But who is questioning the scientific reasoning of the US authorities
for executing their final farcical solution on these poor
creatures? For this latest turn towards a unilateral
policy of ‘totalitarian
overkill’ of a few thousand healthy deer
has been received with almost complacent acceptance across the
country. Such perverse and senseless 'carry-ons' have sadly become the
daily 'non-stories' of our modern times – particularly here in Europe;
where reports pop up with ever increasing frequency of so called TSE precautionary control programmes initiating slaughter regimes
all over the globe - annihilation of a herd of water buffalo in Vancouver, flocks of sheep from Vermont, flocks
of sheep in Sardinia, 1000’s of sheep flocks in Germany,
400,000 cows in Germany – all healthy animals. So what next
? The entire BSE-free British sheep flock on the grounds that BSE might
just appear in British sheep?
The
sad twist to this tale is that straightforward copper supplementation of deer in CWD risk areas may be all that is required to prevent
manganese replacing the depleted copper at the critical prion protein
bonding sites in the deer’s brain; which, in turn, prevents the
‘knock on’ increase in susceptibility of the animal to environmental
infrasound; that insidious eco-force to be reckoned with, capable of
triggering off a melt down of self perpetuating, free radical ‘cluster
bombs’ in the brains of manganese contaminated deer, thereby
instigating CWD. Furthermore, copper supplementation may be all that is
required to prevent the senseless slaughter.
