Guest guest Posted July 11, 2005 Report Share Posted July 11, 2005 Origins of CODEX. It turns out the one of the primary architects of CODEX ALIMENTARIUS was none other than Fritz ter Meer. He was a member of the Managing Board of IG Farben from its inception to its dissolution. As the Wartime Manager, he was responsible for IG Auschwitz. In the Nuremberg Tribunal, ter Meer stated: " Forced labor did not inflict any remarkable injury, pain, or suffering on the detainees, particularly since the alternative for these workers would have been death. " In 1948, ter Meer was sentenced by the Nuremberg Tribunal to seven years in prison for plundering and slavery.In 1952, his sentence was commuted, due to the influence of powerful friends. From 1956-1964, he was reinstated as a member of the Managing Board of Bayer AG. In 1962, ter Meer was one of the architects of the " Codex Alimentarius " - Commission and one of the main designers of the schemes that would profit from human suffering. Just fifteen years after they were convicted in the Nuremberg War Crimes Tribunal, Bayer, BASF and Hoechst were again the architects of the next major human rights offences. In 1962, they established the Codex Alimentarius Commission. So if CODEX ALIMENTARIUS seems to be very much like the Nazi ideology, it's because it was born of the same contempt for humanity!
