ISIS Lecture 26/11/09

Science of the Organism & Sustainable Systems

Dr. Mae-Wan Ho

Invited lecture, The Alternative View, 13-15 November, Grand Thistle Hotel, Bristol, UK

Abstract

Monsanto has surreptitiously withdrawn its high lysine GM maize LY038 for safety reasons under a shroud of secrecy. There are serious health hazards inherent to the technology, which apply to every GMO. In addition each GMO carries unique hazards. None of these has been addressed adequately so far, and there is now a stack of evidence indicating that GM food and feed are unsafe.

GM crops have had adverse impacts on farmers especially those in developing countries. The high costs of GM seeds and poor harvests led to spiralling debts and deaths. Between 1997 and 2007, the Indian government recorded nearly
200 000 farmer suicides, more than half due to Bt cotton introduced since 2002. GMOs are bad for health and the environment; they will severely compromise global food security and exacerbate global warming. Those foisting GM crops on farmers in developing countries are committing a crime against humanity.

Genetic engineering is the epitome of mechanistic biology, part and parcel of the dominant model of the world as machine that was becoming obsolete since the turn of the last century when the new science of the organism emerged with quantum theory.

The dominant neo-liberal economy of infinite unsustainable growth has brought the earth to the brink of irreversible climate catastrophe. It is driven by competition, profligate dissipation and waste. In contrast, nature’s circular economy (thermodynamics) of balanced sustainable growth is based on reciprocity and cooperation, which enables energy and material resources to be recycles while minimizing waste and dissipation. Nature’s economy applies most clearly to the highly productive agro-ecology systems innovated by farmers, or perfected over millennia.

We have all the appropriate science and technologies, abundant human creativity, and local initiatives that will enable us to exit the multiple crises of food, fuel and finance. The major stumbling block is our political leaders’ overwhelming adherence to the obsolete mechanistic model.

Unhappy Thanksgiving

William Rivers Pitt, Truthout: "Ten months after the inauguration of Barack Obama, those 'Yes We Can' and "Hope" slogans have begun to ring more than a little hollow. Of course, the man inherited a vast array of ongoing catastrophes from his predecessor, and it is a dead-bang certainty that ten months under a McCain administration would have left us in far worse shape than we find ourselves in today, but the realization that matters are only slightly better than they would have been under the worst-case scenario doesn't go very far anymore. Some things are better, but the fact of the matter is that some things are worse, and most things are exactly the same."

UK: Miliband attacks judges over torture ruling

The Government has launched a damaging attack on the judiciary in its increasingly desperate legal battle to stop the public from seeing evidence of Britain’s involvement in torture.

Senator questions US troop buildup

Sen.

Object lessons from the Afghan quagmire

So tomorrow night, we hear from the president at last. Reports have it that he will lay out his plan for Afghanistan — how to ‘finish the job,’ as he put it last week. The judiciousness with which he has gathered information is impressive, and the slow pace of his decision-making suggests a welcome level of prudence. … Some of us wish to hear tomorrow that American forces in Afghanistan will join those in Iraq in a phased, but steady journey home; that soon our nation’s servicemen and women will be out of harm’s way; and that the United States will protect its interests in the Middle East and South Asia more through diplomacy and development than through military power. Reports also have it, however, that President Obama will more likely lay out a different plan, arguing that the best way out of the war is through it...

Throwing more troops at Afghanistan won’t work

Fox News Forum
by KT McFarland

11/30/09

So far, President Obama has failed to answer some basic questions on Afghanistan. Until he does, weighing how many troops to add is like putting the cart before the horse. President Obama must first clarify the mission: what does he want to accomplish in Afghanistan …? Is Our Goal to Destroy Al Qaeda? Well, Al Qaeda isn’t in Afghanistan anymore; we drove its ragtag remnant out in December 2001 when it decamped across the Tora Bora Mountains into the tribal regions of Pakistan. Is Our Goal to Prevent Al Qaeda from returning to Afghanistan? Yes, but can that be accomplished short of remaking Afghanistan? Do we really need 100,000 American troops and over $100 billion a year to keep a few thousand Al Qaeda from walking across the border?

- Fibre optics and investment returns: case presentation

Contrary to the idea put about by certain representatives of the wireless industries, quite apart from the advantages of security and the exceptional quality of the service provided, the widespread installation of the fibre optic network, even in difficult conditions, produces a substantial short term profit for both public and private investors, and does so without causing any environmental pollution. Thus fibre optics are without any possible contradiction the alternative to WiMax, WiFi and other sources of artificial electromagnetic HF microwave radiation, the primary cause of environmental pollution in the 21st century.

Whatever happened to the so-called ‘black sites,’ where suspected terrorists were held overseas by the CIA and submitted to harsh interrogations that included torture? On April 9, CIA chief Leon Panetta issued a statement notifying CIA employees that the agency ‘no longer operates detention facilities or black sites’ — which were effectively shut down in the fall of 2006 — ‘and has proposed a plan to decommission the remaining sites.’ In the months since then, lawyers for several terrorism suspects have been trying to determine the status of these sites, as they seek evidence for their cases. But the US government has refused to disclose anything about what it has done with these facilities...

All in all, we face a depressing prospect: the Left brain-dead with Obama idolatry, the Right neoconized beyond redemption — and no one left to oppose a futile, draining, and horrifically destructive conflict, a war we cannot afford and which directly contravenes our real interests as a nation. No one, that is, except a clear majority of the American people, who, according to polls, think the battle for Afghanistan is not worth it. Here is a clear instance in which ordinary, everyday Americans are radically out of sync with partisan activists of both the Right and the Left - thus creating a huge opening for libertarians, particularly the campus arm of the movement...

CounterPunch

11/30/09

There are now at present some 68,000 U.S. troops and 42,000 allied forces occupying Afghanistan, in league with the Northern Alliance warlords and the corrupt and feeble Karzai regime in Kabul. President Obama clearly wishes to increase the figure and will announce before an audience of West Point cadets Tuesday that he will add over 30,000 more while pushing the Europeans to add 10,000. This will bring the total number of occupation forces to around the level of the Soviet deployment at its peak in the 1980s. The Soviets were trying to protect the secular government in Afghanistan and to discourage Islamic fundamentalism, a potential threat to the neighboring Soviet Central Asian republics such as Uzbekistan. What is Obama trying to do? Because make no mistake about it, this is Barack Obama’s war now...

Und darin wird nicht nur nach Namen, Geburtsdatum, Anschrift oder Bezügen gefragt, sondern in der Rubrik "Fehlzeiten" auch nach einer Teilnahme an Streiks. Oder nach Abmahnungen und möglichem Fehlverhalten. (..)

Elena hat 35 Millionen Datensätze gespeichert

„In der Datenbank zum umstrittenen elektronischen Entgeltnachweis "Elena" sind schon 35 Millionen Datensätze über Beschäftigung und Einkommen von Arbeitnehmern gespeichert. Der Bundesbeauftragte für den Datenschutz, Peter Schaar, sagte am Donnerstag in Stuttgart, diese Daten seien verschlüsselt und könnten deshalb noch nicht genutzt werden. Auch fehlten noch etliche rechtliche Regelungen. Mit "Elena" will die Bundesregierung lästigen Papierkram in der Arbeitswelt abschaffen. Die Arbeitgeber müssen seit Jahresbeginn monatlich die Daten an eine zentrale Speicherstelle bei der Deutschen Rentenversicherung senden. Gegen das Vorhaben läuft seit dem vergangenen Montag eine "Mitmach-Verfassungsbeschwerde" des FoeBuD. Zur Stunde verzeichnet die Aktion bereits 16.000 Teilnehmer…“ Meldung in heise online vom 18.03.2010 https://www.heise.de/newsticker/meldung/Elena-hat-35-Millionen-Datensaetze-gespeichert-958264.html

Helen Benedict, ColorLines: "Mickiela curled up on her grandmother's couch, tucked her feet under her and stroked her belly. Her long red hair was pulled into a high ponytail, and her pretty freckled face was free of makeup. She was twenty-one, a year out of her tour in Iraq, and pregnant."

Ray McGovern, Truthout: "It's not too late for President Barack Obama to follow the example of Harry Truman, who fired Gen. Douglas McArthur in 1951 for insubordination. Then, as now, the stakes were high. Then it was Korea; now it is Afghanistan.

Obama's Fifth Category: The "Untriable"

William Fisher, Truthout: "In his talk at the National Archives in May, President Obama referred to five categories of prisoners currently held at Guantanamo Bay. First, there are those who have violated American criminal laws and will be tried in federal courts. There may be as many as a dozen men in this category, five of whose trials were announced last week, including that of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed."

Obama and the Intelligence Community: An Interim Report Card

Melvin A. Goodman, Truthout: "President Obama has had nearly a year to make necessary changes in the intelligence community and the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). While he has been successful in addressing the CIA's renditions, detentions and interrogations programs, he has failed to appoint leaders willing to address the culture of cover-up that exists at the CIA and to make the necessary strategic changes. Until President Obama is willing to address the militarization and centralization of the intelligence community, he will retain his grade of C+ in managing the community."

Time to Quell Excessive Power of Credit Bureaus, Sometimes Ruling Life or Death

Peter Stern, Truthout: "During the past several decades in the US, three credit bureaus have become so powerful, they can make or break American lives. They are Equifax, Experian and Trans Union. Any one of them has the capability to cause many sleepless nights of worry for American citizens, and on many levels their power and control rival that exerted by the dreaded IRS."

Audit the Fed attached as an amendment

Campaign For Liberty
by US Rep. Ron Paul (R-TX)

11/24/09

I was pleased last week when we won a vote in the Financial Services Committee to include language from the Audit the Fed bill HR1207 in the upcoming financial regulatory reform bill. As it stands now, if HR 3996 passes, because of this action, the Federal Reserve’s entire balance sheet will be opened up to a GAO audit. We will at last have a chance to find out what happened to the trillions of dollars the Fed has been giving out. Finally, the blanket restrictions on GAO audits of the Fed that have existed since 1978 will be removed...
