Lobbyist Says Monsanto’s Roundup Is Safe To Drink – When Offered A Glass He Freaks Out

This is what it looks like when a corporate spin-doctor refuses to swallow his own lie. Watch this Monsanto lobbyist’s reaction when offered an opportunity to … tell the truth.

Patrick Moore, a Canadian scientist and environmentalist and the former president of Greenpeace Canada, recently came into contact with a journalist from a premium French cable station. The journalist identified Moore as a Monsanto lobbyist and asked him to drink a glass of Roundup Herbicide, the world’s most popular and widely used weed-killer.


Interviewer, in parenthesis: (You want to drink some?, … we have some here)

“I’d be happy to, actually.” (ya?) “Not, not really, but” ( not really?) “I know it wouldn’t hurt me.”

( If you say so. …I have some glyphosate…) “No, no … I’m not STUPID.”

(oh… ok, so you…) “No…” ( …know it’s dangerous…right?)

[note: talking over each other] “No no.. but I know people have tried to commit suicide (no no no… let’s … let’s …) and fail regularly (…tell the truth) …”
“It’s not dangerous to humans…” (It’s not dangerous?…) “No.. it’s not”

(So you are ready to drink one glass of that?) “NO. I’m not an IDIOT…”

The Spin…
Patrick Moore, political spin # 1 – You can drink a quart of this… I know it wouldn’t hurt me…. No, I won’t drink it,… I’m not stupid.

Patrick Moore, political spin # 2 – It’s not dangerous to humans… no it’s not … NO, I won’t drink it… I’m not an IDIOT.

What is… Spin?
Political and Corporate spin happens when a speaker attempts to influence listeners to perceive a situation from a certain perspective. It belies truth. It’s is politically coached. And in the case of Patrick Moore, quick to roll off the tongue, but not true enough to back up with action.

What happened?
The interview was supposed to be about Golden Rice, … but the interviewer either had planned to switch topics at the end or decided to change topics once the original interview was completed.

There is something undeniably wrong with this person. To have this two-faced kind of spin pour out of his mouth is worthy an inordinately long liars nose!

Watch the video… and decide for yourself if you’ve ever heard this politically coached corporate spin. It’s all a rehearsed lie for the corporate show…

Do you still remember Lee Hsien Loong allow Fukushima rice to be imported to sinkieland...

Since he allow the import so it will be right for him to eat in front of the National TV.. i can even personally cook the rice for him and feed him with it.

Japan’s export of rice from Fukushima for the first time since the nuclear accident in 2011 – and Singapore is the recipient of the 300kg of rice.

The Japan Times reports, “Three hundred kilograms of the Koshihikari brand of rice produced in the city of Sukagawa, Fukushima Prefecture, has arrived in Singapore, and will be sold at a supermarket from Friday after clearing customs, according to the National Federation of Agricultural Cooperative Associations.”

The Wall Street Journal reported that the rice “will be sold in five-kilogram bags at a local Japanese supermarket beginning this Friday.”

“We will check the rice thoroughly in Fukushima before shipping it overseas, and then the bags will undergo another check in Singapore,” a spokesman for the federation, known as Zen-noh, told Japan Real Time.

In May, Singapore’s Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong announced that Singapore would lift the 3-year ban on Japanese food products from Fukushima with “immediate effect” during the visit by his Japanese counterpart, Shinzo Abe. (See here.)

The lifting of the ban then raised health concerns from members of the public in Singapore. When questioned about this, the Agri-Food & Veterinary Authority of Singapore (AVA) said food products imported from Japan are safe for consumption.

A member of the public asked the AVA on its Facebook page then if the agency would impose “prominent labelling” of such foods in Singapore, with labels to indicate that such food products are “Imported from Fukushima” so that consumers can make informed choices.

In its reply, the AVA did not say if it would impose labelling on the products but it did say, “We have been monitoring food imports from Japan and rest assured that our surveillance results have been satisfactory.” (See update below.)

The AVA also said that before it lifted its restrictions, it “had carried out a comprehensive risk assessment on the safety of the food supply in Japan.”

It added, “Before food can be imported from Fukushima, the Japanese authorities have to show evidence of satisfactory surveillance results for radioactive contamination. E.g. the radioactive levels in the areas of food production are required to be within Japan’s safety standards.”

The AVA had conducted “on-site assessment” earlier this year to verify and understand the safety measures imposed by Japan.

Before any products can be exported to Singapore, Japanese authorities need to show evidence of satisfactory surveillance results for radioactive contamination in these prefectures.

According to news reports, import restrictions that remain in place are:

a) Seafood and products from the forest in the prefectures of Ibaraki, Tochigi, Gunma will still require pre-export tests;

b) Seafood and products from the forest as well as agricultural produce from demarcated areas and the control zone2 (close to the nuclear power plant) in Fukushima prefecture are not allowed to be imported.

All food products from Japan still require a Certificate of Origin (COO) to identify the prefecture of origin of the food product.

Some countries continue to impose bans on the import of food items from Japan, fearing the risk of contamination from the Fukishima Daiichi nuclear accident.
