and in the process they indiscriminately spray everything, including villages and farms sickening the people, animals and destroying their legitimate farm produce. I understand that this is a program of the US gov't and of course all the roundup is supplied by monsanto bringing them great profit.

Anyhow, I wonder if they will now attack Columbia for loss of "trade" under their investor's right treaty aka free trade agreement.
