GM crop was planned for East Hoathly. Farmer was dissuaded by local pressure, but there are question marks over whether he was intimidated or not. He said he was, but there is evidence that his arm was being twisted by Aventis, the company with the GM interest. Story covered (in less depth) by George Monbiot, Guardian, April 5 2001Cincinnati.

Rogue Nazis can ruin your whole day. Here are some quotes from a Cincinnati Enquirer article. "Christine Jones, 34, a Louisville teacher, is in Jewish Hospital in Louisville with a fractured rib, a bruised lung and a bruised spleen, Tom Pearce said. She spent most of the night at the hospital, he said. ... Photographer Tom Uhlman, who was shooting pictures for Associated Press, said he saw police drive up to Liberty and Elm streets, get out of their cars and, without warning, shoot several rounds at a small, peaceful group away from the main crowd."Observer: Mayday activists to surrender to cops

It seems that a British-based (Reuters) press article yet again does a more thorough investigation, analysis and report on an aspect of the Cincinnati unrest. This is why we need INDEPENDENT MEDIA CENTERS in the USA especially. US media often seem like they try to do the minimal possible, and then in addition try to add a rightwing corporate spin to many issues.Breakthrough heralds new era of sustainable health and agriculture
