'exploited by West' By Andrew Buncombe Published: 17 February 2006 Dozens of Western multinationals have made millions of pounds in profits from exploiting African bio-resources taken from some of the poorest nations on earth, with not a penny offered in return. Pharmaceutical firms are accused of breaching the United Nations convention on biodiversity, which states that nations have sovereignty over their own natural resources, by scouring continents for samples of unique materials, from plants to bacteria. A ground-breaking report identifies numerous materials, taken from Africa to Western laboratories, which have developed and patented products worth hundreds of millions of pounds - from a trailing plant beloved of gardeners across Europe to a natural cure for impotence and a microbe used in fading designer jeans. In some cases companies accept that their product is based on a traditional source and yet there is no evidence the companies have compensated countries from which they took them. "It's a new form of colonial pillaging," said Beth Burrows, of the US-based Edmonds Institute, the environmental group that published the report. MORE ...

We have lost 151 Canadian troops as of 21 July 2010. Neo-cons and those elites with fat contracts want the survivors to stay - and die as if they are a renewable resource for the rich and war mongers. The Harper government of Canada has gone to the Federal Court several times to block an independent commission's current inquiry into reports of Canada's CF involvement in torture and atrocities against Muslim Afghans and Canada's top brass and pols instructing their CF to ignore child rapes and torture committed in front of their eyes and or within their knowledge. Most Canadians DO NOT want to emulate torture-rapist Americans. Should we fear that the Canada's new policy chickens will come home to roost? Contact your MP, MPP to express your objections - or support - of the AmeriKanization of Canadian policies and its military Read about how the US and UK cook Muslims alive with phosphorous WMD. [top left] Do you believe that Canada's cosying up to the neo-cons war on 1.6 billion Muslims will make us less safe? We non-Muslims have a duty to speak up before the neo-cons in our government turn us into Americans - or other Muslim haters - who have to hide their identity when they travel. Do our Government's actions devalue the safety of the Maple Lead emblem and our Canadian Passports? Bush & Harper| "We do not torture." [CA's Supreme Court this week - July 19 10 - says RCMP, CSIS can't be trusted on ensuring they do not use [or peddle] torture extracted information. And Harper with MP consent, conceals evidence of complicity by 2 pro-rogues of Parliament, defiance of Supreme Court and threatening, harassing diplomats, soldiers, civil servant who speak the truth. Remember that the Fed Libs are knee deep in war crimes behaviour; that Hillier fled after praising a torture boasting Afghan governor as a good man and a good friend. Die he flee the HR investigators and the ICC? ================= TORTURING, MURDERING AND SH*****G ON MUSLIMS VIDEOS & STILLS OF WHAT AMERICA THE TORTURER AND ITS CLOSEST ALLY WANTS TO HIDE ===================== AFGHANISTAN Meanwhile, Rick Hillier Canada's ex army chief, says that: 'Canada is in Afghanistan to "kill the scumbags". Hillier says that the US military is now proud of Canada. Meanwhile, Canadian news reports say that Canada is rounding up Afghans and turning them over to the American torturers, or assassinating them by sniper fire. France's facist politician said that he wanted to 'hose out the scum' [from African and Muslim neighbourhoods]. His chickens came home to roost and it wasn't the avian flu.
