remarks, he indicated he remained favorable to the
technology and encouraged scientists to keep working.
“This council will do everything necessary so
that its contribution to illuminate the conscience is
not wanting, so that plant biotechnologies become
an opportunity for all and not a threat,” he said.
“This seminar has made us understand that the
field of GMOs will not be abandoned, even if it
needs more care.”
Lynch

may have exaggerated her
story, and that she considers
the soldiers who rescued her
April 1 to be heroes.
“No matter what it was, the
point is that they got in there,
they rescued me, and they took
me home safe,” she said.
Lynch, who has fair skin and
fine blond hair that falls to her
shoulders, physically recoils when
she recounts her time in the hospi
tal, a time when her hope dwin
dled each day that she would see
home again — or even survive.
But she said that as she lay in
a bed at Saddam Hussein
General Hospital, her body
wracked, she decided: “I wasn’t
going to let myself die there.”
“I was detennined,” she said.
“In my mind, I was thinking,
Tve got family to get back to,
I’ve got a boyfriend. I’ve got all
these things to see and do when
I get home.”’
Lynch spoke with the AP as
her biography, “I Am a Soldier,
Too,” hit bookstores nationwide.
It was written by Rick Bragg,
who resigned from The New York
Times after a free-lancer helped
him with a story without receiv
ing credit. Bragg was present dur
ing the AP interview with Lynch.
The book describes the
Iraqi doctors and nurses who
cared for her as thoughtful and
gentle people who repeatedly
and secretly tried to see her to
freedom.

Martino has often spoken out about the poten
tial benefits of GM foods as a way of alleviating
world hunger and says the church has a duty to
follow any new science that might benefit
mankind. He says he convened experts in the field
so the Vatican could make an informed decision,
although critics said the majority of participants
were pro-biotech.
The issue of world hunger is of particular con
cern to the Vatican, which denies responsibility for
contributing to the problem, rejecting arguments
that its ban on contraception helps fuel food inse
curity by promoting larger families.
