Yesterday I was reading an article in which the Hungarian government destroyed by fire thousands of acres of crops that had at least some percentage of genetically modified crops.

The article claims,
GMO seeds are not considered worrisome and dangerous simply because they are modified, but it is that they are modified to handle massive doses of glyphosate (Roundup), and not die. They are made to take baths in the chemical herbicide that is so dangerous for human consumption, and it is the fear that the buildup of glyphosate within crops is a potential cause for the recent rapid increase in autism, cancers, and other long-term developing illnesses. The company Monsanto has been so aggressive legally to cover up any public ill, believed to be hushing farmers, buying off segments of the government and paying off scientists in the U.S. that it is hard for anyone to know what logistical data has been soured, and what truths to believe. It has become easier for countries like Hungary to plow under the crop than to try to disseminate between what is fact and what is farse with Monsanto's disastrous reputation and communication failures.
Is there any evidence for these claims that a buildup of glyphosate within crops is a potential cause for the recent rapid increase in autism, cancers, and other long-term developing illnesses? That companies are buying off government and scientists?
What effect does the use of glyphosate have on the environment? Does its extensive use adversely affect bees by way of example?
If anyone knows anything about it or can point me in the right direction I would be very appreciative.
