Fwd: US Declares Iraqis Must Destroy Their Own Seeds

September 26, 2006

Seed?Destroy all that lives.I have noticed that there are no honey bees.So instead of buying flowers from Wally World, or where ever you see the plants started for you, don't buy them!! There still is seed available through catalog's on the net, and purchase flower seed. Sooner than later. Next spring, plant your own, flowers and veg.This is a way to combat the killing of bees. Seeds that are "real" will produce pollen, when the bee comes and goes from plant to plant, it will lead to pollination, and a re-newel of life.Without the bees, all life will die. First the plant life and then man will starve.The bee holds the secret to life...think about it.Boycott greenhouse

plants...it is most likely Monsanto seeds.Grow your own, from the start of the miracle of the seed. And sustain life. Don't forget to feed the birds...They will warn you of poisen in the air...when they die, we die.Stop Monsanto....Just plant "real" seed. Fix your eyes on your heart until your heart becomes an eye..
