US admits spying on Scotland - is this funny, or are they now totally psychotic?

The US Defence Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) has admitted monitoring a Scottish distillery because they claim that "'tweaks’ to the process can create something very pleasant (whisky) or deadly (chemical weapons)."
Maybe there is a funny side to this, but on the other hand, if they stretch their arm (and their budget) this far, what does it tell us about how far their mass psychosis has progressed. What else are they spending money to monitor ?

GENETIC MODIFICATION - FOOD FACTS REVEALED

The following article is intended to give a brief introduction to this hot topic. While much of the GM controversy at present is centred on 'environmental' concerns, and with good reason, there is an equally important question to GM food crops: whether they are safe to eat or not. If they were safe and wholesome, then 'cross-contamination' from GM crops might be slightly less of a serious problem. The article does not detail the obvious hazards of growing GM crops which create pharmaceuticals (causing problems in the US), nor the complex changes to EU regulations now in the pipeline but still widely regarded as dysfunctional.
