The United States has defined terrorism under the Federal Criminal Code. Chapter 113B of Part I of Title 18 of the United States Code defines terrorism and lists the crimes associated with terrorism.[25] In Section 2331 of Chapter 113b, terrorism is defined as:
…activities that involve violent… or life-threatening acts… that are a violation of the criminal laws of the United States or of any State and… appear to be intended (i) to intimidate or coerce a civilian population; (ii) to influence the policy of a government by intimidation or coercion; or (iii) to affect the conduct of a government by mass destruction, assassination, or kidnapping; and… (C) occur primarily within the territorial jurisdiction of the United States… [or]… (C) occur primarily outside the territorial jurisdiction of the United States…"
So by definition of the US Government, the US military are terrorists.
Just like every other war, it's about money and control of land. I'm sorry, but for people that believe that war is for the freedom of people, they really need to wake up. I don't know about you, but I sure as hell don't feel safer then I did 7 years ago. The government has their interests first, not the people and now that the whole the country is suffering with the "economic crisis" the real shit is going to hit the fan soon.
To touch on that Monsanto topic; they have to be one of the most corrupt companies out there. They have lawsuits all over the world and they are the ones that invented RoundUp. They had a big scam with soy beans and RoundUp. Farmers were using RU to kill weeds, but it was killing everything, so Monsanto came up with RU resistant soy bean seed, which they sold to the farmers. Some of the farmers started to harvest their own seeds and Monsanto slapped a lawsuit on them and took their farms away.
I don't know how this company is still making money.
Here's a link to a bunch of Monsanto documentaries:
