Biotechnology Institute

The Biotechnology Institute produced a pro biotech magazine, Your World, for Scottish Enterprise.
To help generate those 'enthusiastic and well informed young people' for the biotech sector Scottish Enterprise decided on a highly controversial course of action. In early April 2001 it announced that, 'Your World magazine, an informative and colourfully illustrated publication covering the key current topics of biotechnology, will be introduced to over 600 education establishments throughout Scotland from today, to augment the curriculum literature on life sciences... Produced in the US by the Biotechnology Institute, the magazine has seen great success in America for both education and industry alike.'
To coincide with the announcement, Scottish Enterprise brought together educationalists and industrialists at the Glasgow Science Centre to hear how Scottish Enterprise's Biotechnology Team had helped formulate teachers' notes to align the content of seven issues of the magazine to the Scottish school curriculum. 
Simon Best, Managing Director of Geron Bio-Med, which like PPL Therapeutics was a commercial off-shoot of the Roslin Institute which produced Dolly the Sheep, spoke at the presentation, noting: 'Scotland is already a globally competitive player in Biotechnology... The education system should be the bedrock of building and maintaining public trust. The publication of 'Your World' is an important step in securing a healthier, wealthier and more sustainable future for Scotland.' 
But many thought that the distribution to schools of Your World was a violation of public trust. An article in The Sunday Herald bore the headline, Fury at pro-GM school magazines. The article noted that Your World was produced in the U.S. by an organisation called the Biotechnology Institute whose funders included Monsanto and Novartis. The President of the Biotechnology Industry Organisation (BIO) sits on its board. The article noted that, in promoting the magazine, Scottish Enterprise, had failed to mention 'the fact that it has been sponsored by multinational GM companies'.

==Lobbying transparency==
BDB is an opponent of transparency, even questioning the need for public disclosure of clients. In its evidence to the Public Administration select committee in 2007 it noted:
:Bircham Dyson Bell LLP is not a member of the APPC and, as a law firm, questions the value of published client lists as a regulatory tool in the UK. In our view, far greater emphasis should be placed upon the requirement for lobbyists to disclose who they are acting for in a particular situation.Bircham Dyson Bell Memorandum from Bircham Dyson Bell LLP, September 2007, submitted to the Public Administration Select committee and published in its 2009 report Lobbying: Access and influence in Whitehall.

Bitzur

Bitzur is a Mossad unit focused on the security of Jews around the world, and their immigration from Arab states.Yossi Melman, Israeli spymaster and Mossad founding father David Kimche dies at 82, Haaretz, 9 March 2010.
Bitzur was founded in the 1950s.Danny Ben-Moshe, Zohar Segev, Israel, the Diaspora, and Jewish Identity, Susses Academic Press, 2007, p.59.
According to Ronen Bergman, Bitzur evacuated some 40,000 Jews from Iran in 1979-81.Ronen Bergman, The Secret War with Iran: The 30-Year Clandestine Struggle Against the World's Most Dangerous Terrorist Power, Simon & Schuster, 2008, p.36.
According to Michael Ross, Bitzur was at one time, "headed by "Michel," a psychologist who had immigrated from France". This would have been in the latter part of Ross's career, which lasted from 1989 to 2001.Yossi Melman, A bestseller, by way of deception?, Haaretz, 16 April 2007.
According to Yossi Melman and Dan Raviv, Bitzur became more active after 9/11 to respond to a wave of anti-semitic attacks around the world:
::Bitzur operatives were assigned to perform their traditional task of helping to organize self-defense for Jewish communities around the globe. This time, however, the task was almost always performed in conjunction with local police forces.Yossi Melman and Dan Raviv, Mossad Tries To Avoid Entangling Iran Jews, Jewish Daily Forward, 22 July 2012.
