Yes, but you can't ignore that the study you mentioned above was done funded by Monsanto, they paid Intertek to do it. [1] "Ten of the 16 scientists on the Intertek panel have been consultants for Monsanto in the past and two others are former Monsanto employees, according to a roster published on Monsanto's website." Paired with the unsealed internal emails from earlier this year, it's at least enough to raise an eyebrow at.
Unfortunately I do not think that peer review is incorruptible either. It is certainly important and speaks more for credibility, but especially in a case like this where there is so much money involved, personally I'm still waiting to see more information. I mean those emails just came out a few months ago, who knows what else will be found at this point?
