US CODEX Office Betrays America in Rome

CODEX UPDATE

Rome, Italy

 

It¡¯s Official: The Vitamin War Was Declared at CODEX Today!

 

Today was a bad day here in Rome. The US supported the Vitamin and

Mineral Guidelines and betrayed US law and you. But that¡¯s not all

that happened here in the CODEX ALIMENTARIUS Commission meeting

today. No, that¡¯s not bad enough. There¡¯s a whole lot more. Here

is what the United States participated in and helped to happen in

just one day (don¡¯t let the helpful sounding names fool you):

 

The dangerously elevated pesticide levels for a variety of poisonous

chemicals were ratified. A win for Big Chema!

 

Hygienic Practices for Meat were ratified (don¡¯t let the name fool

you). A win for Big Agra.

 

Code of Practice to Minimize and Contain Antimicrobial Resistance

was approved (don¡¯t let the name fool you). Another win for Big

Agra and one for Big Pharma, too!

 

Veterinary Drug Maximum Residue Limits Draft approved. Wins for Big

Pharma, Big Agra, Big Chema!

 

Maximum Levels for Cadmium in Wheat Grain; Potato; Stem and Root

Vegetables; Leafy Vegetables; and, Other Vegetables was approved.

 

Code of Practice for the Prevention and Reduction of Aflatoxin in

Tree Nuts was adopted (don¡¯t let the name fool you).

 

I could go on, and on, and on. And today was only the first day. But

instead of listing all of the really awful standards which were

approved or advanced to higher steps in the 8 step ratification

process, let me turn your attention to betrayal.

 

America has, once again, been betrayed by the people who should have

been protecting her most precious resource: her people. The US CODEX

Office¡¯s US CODEX Policy look to me like they have been sold to the

highest bidders: Big Pharma, Big Chema, Big Agra, Big Biotechna and

Big Medica. These high minded-wounding standards and codes are

nothing short of the triumph of corporate greed at your expense and

mine.

 

Let me ask you to think about America on this sad and sorry End-of-

Independence Day. Our CODEX Policy is in the process of taking

America apart, illness by illness, and selling its sovereignty to

the highest bidder. Just before the lunch break, Dr. Ed. Scarbrough

spoke to the several hundred delegates and observers in the meeting

room and told them that today was our National Holiday. He explained

that if he were not working, he would be doing what other Americans

do today, spending the time with their families, cooking outdoors

and, most of all, playing sports, especially baseball. And then he

threw soft base ball around the room that said Courtesy of the US

CODEX Office, US Independence Day, July 4, 2005?. Honest! I could

not make that up!

 

My thought was ¡°Dr. Scarbrough, the US CODEX Manager, has just

given a present to the CODEX Delegates. What is CODEX giving to us?

Poisoned plants and animals from which to feed ourselves and the

lack of adequate nutrients with which to protect ourselves from the

consequence of the poisoning¡±.

 

Independence Day.

 

Makes me wonder:

How did America feel on the day it was revealed that FDR knew about

the impending attack on Pearl Harbor and allowed it to happen?

 

How did America feel when information began to leak out that the

9/11 attack was already in the information system and no one did

anything to stop it?

 

And how does America feel today when the United States CODEX Office

and our CODEX delegation betrayed us and helped the UN CODEX

ALIMENTARIUS Commission declare war on the people of the US (and the

rest of the world), too?

 

Today, the US delegate (only one person speaks for each country at

CODEX) enacted the US CODEX policy and the Vitamin and Mineral

Standard was adopted. NOT ONE NATION RAISED ITS VOICE AND SAID, ¡°MY

COUNTRY OBJECTS!¡± NOT ONE!

 

I made it my business to speak with the South African delegation

before today¡¯s meeting started. I introduced myself and proffered

my card. I explained why I was there and I asked what South Africa¡¯

s position was. Their delegate sneered at me, refused to give me his

card or take mine and said, ¡°South Africa believes that Risk

Assessment is appropriate for nutrients because they are all toxic¡±.

 

Another betrayal.

 

So now what do we do? America has fought a lot of wars, all of them

seemed impossible at some point, often right at the start. Remember

George Washington at Valley Forge? The American Revolution was

filled with dark moments and nearly certain defeat. But because men

and women of vision and dedication chose to continue their struggle,

today we are celebrating July 4. What a fitting day for the CODEX

enemy to attack! We have the means, if we have the will, to resist

and regain our health freedoms.

 

Join me!

 

And if you think that our protective laws will be enough, let me

suggest to you that the forces behind CODEX are poised to swoop in

and steamroller opposition while they change those laws. That¡¯s a

definite battle front in the Vitamin Wars.

 

Before we left for Rome we set the offense we need to win this war

in motion (wars are not won on the defensive) with our Citizen¡¯s

Petition and with our letters to Congress urging Congressional

oversight. Well, we are clearly now at war: many, many shots have

been fired by CODEX across our bow today. Here¡¯s our combat plan.

I¡¯ll tell you and then I will ask you to join me for the sake of

the life that each of you treasures, your own, your family¡¯s, and

any one you love. Now that the initial salvos have been fired in the

Vitamin Wars, I am asking you to enlist in the Health and Wellness

Army because you love health and life and you love liberty.

 

If you don¡¯t want to be a casualty in the CODEX Vitamin War, join

up now! We need you and your friends and family and your friends¡¯

friends because this is a non-combatant war with unthinkable numbers

of casualties if we don¡¯t fight it well and win.

 

How do you enlist and what are your duties?

 

1. Go to the 6 Easy Steps page at (6 Easy Steps) and take each of

the action steps and contact Congress with the click of a mouse to

tell them we are watching and they need to protect our health

freedom and our law. One of the Six Easy Steps is to make a

donation. Wars cost money. We need money for a public relations

campaign, for lobbying costs (legal ones, not bribery), we need

money to support the legal challenges which we will bring to protect

our health freedom.

 

We don¡¯t get our support from Big Pharma. We get it from you. A lot

of things are different in this war. In this one, you pay to fight!

 

2. Shout it from the rooftops! Direct everyone you know to the

HealthFreedomUSA campaign to protect America from CODEX,

www.HealthFreedomUSA.org. Most people haven¡¯t heard the declaration

of war yet. The enemy has been creeping silently forward and now it

has gained a major legal foothold. Sound the alarm, wake the

neighbors!

 

Send out your own emails asking people take action!

 

Forward our email newsletters as widely as you can and ask every

recipient to do the same.

 

Tell your favorite radio talk show that you think we should be on

his/her show. We do several shows a week in addition to our own

Internet radio program, FREE U.S./FREE US!

 

Write letters to the editor. You would be amazed how effective they

are! People really, really read them!

 

Ask health writers in local and national papers to cover the story.

 

If you see an alternative or holistic health professional, explain

how CODEX is threatening their practices. Send them to our website.

 

Visit your local health food store, organic farmer¡¯s market or co-

op, etc., etc. Tell them that their freedom to grow, buy and sell

clean, unadulterated food and high potency nutrients is under

sustained attack and tell them about CODEX. Send them to our website.

 

Stay informed.

 

Read the CODEX Update Blog regularly.

 

Listen to our Internet radio show, FREE U.S./FREE US! every

Wednesday evening at 7-8 PM Eastern on www.FICAA.com. This week,

June 6 and next week, June 13, we will be broadcasting live from

Rome to bring you the latest details. If that time is not convenient

for you, you can find us in the archives at www.FICAA.org.

 

We need to reach millions of Americans with the truth that the US

CODEX Office has betrayed them by acting illegally against American

law.

 

Yours in Health and Freedom,
