“The session on July 18 on the top floor of the American mission in Vienna was a meeting of former rivals. Before the Iraq war, Dr. ElBaradei had attracted the wrath of the Bush administration by declaring that his agency had found no evidence that Saddam Hussein was reconstituting his nuclear program. And the administration had tried to oust Dr. ElBaradei, an Egyptian, from his post, partly because they found him insufficiently tough on Iran.”
Assessing just how far the Iranians have gone from plan to product is difficult. “It’s easy to fall into the trap of thinking that beautiful pictures represent reality,” a senior intelligence official said. “But that may not be the case.”
Although ElBaradei has been vindicated on Iraq, he was still ousted from the IAEA, in what appears to be be a complete repeat of the Iraq deception with Iran.
“The idea that we’ll wake up tomorrow and Iran will have a nuclear weapon is an idea that isn’t supported by the facts as we have seen them so far,” said ElBaradei before his departure in 2009

A September 2012 study conducted by Giles-Eric Seralini of Caen University a found an increased risk of tumors and adverse toxicological effects from Monsanto's corn, NH 603 and its patented herbicide RoundUp. The two year study was a duplication of Monsanto's own "safety" study, with the only difference being that Monsanto's study was only conducted for 90 days. Adverse affects showed up in the fourth month, incidentally. In the year that followed, Seralini and his study came under relentless attack by industry and mainstream media despite the transparency and full disclosure of data by Seralini and his scientific team. Two months ago, in an unprecedented decision by the journal, Food, Chemical & Toxicology, this study was retracted for "inconclusiveness". It was discovered that "11 of the authors of letters to the editor slamming Séralini’s study had undisclosed financial relationships with Monsanto."

Check it out for a clear explanation of how Obamacare works and how to take advantage of all the benefits available to you, whether you get insurance at your job, work for or own a small business, or are self-employed or unemployed:
