Engineering A Global Food Crisis: The Hardship Will Be Widespread

Home gardens throughout the UK have been destroyed. Leaves on tomato plants are curling and potatoes are deformed, carrots, peas, lettuce all deemed inedible and the timing couldn't't be worse. Last week it was being reported that people were stealing vegetables right from their neighbors garden because of the increase of food prices.


A high volume of calls have been coming into the Pesticides Safety Directorate and so far it looks as though the problem with thousands of peoples gardens comes from fertilizer. "Manure that came from animals that were eating grass treated with a hormone based herbicide called aminopyralid, found in products made by Dow AgroSciences and used on grassland to control weeds."-

It is not safe to use on food crops, but it's fine for animals to eat. Then its okay for us to eat them (and the herbicide inside of them). The hormone based herbicide has gone through a long process, first the digestive systems of the animals, then out with the manure, which takes months to "mature"- (ready to use as fertilizer) and after people have used it in their garden the soil is contaminated, the herbicide is still potent enough to kill the plants and it is even advised that you wait to replant anything in that soil for at least a year, maybe longer. Rendering peoples' land useless for gardening"-until further notice

DOW is no stranger to controversy, and judging from their track record they don't hold human life in high regard. In India they refuse to take responsibility for a poison gas spill, they will not clean it up and they will not provide clean water to the people. DOW is the second largest chemical company in America and they provided napalm to the US during Vietnam, and they are corrupting seeds around the world rolling out more GMO's (genetically modified organisms). Now this giant can reach into our backyards and uproot our personal food supply.

Along with the people in the UK who will not be able to feed themselves from their own gardens, many of us will not be able to get all the food we are used to getting in our markets soon. Right now across the world farms are literally being flooded out, destroying the produce crops for this year. Other parts of the world are being dried out, to the point where crops could never survive like Cyprus where they are importing water. There is a food crisis going on throughout the world, even in America there are people standing in bread lines rioting over food vouchers.

The future of food is being set up with disaster in mind. Bill Gates and the Rockefeller foundation have joined forces and begun storing seeds in the Svalbard Global Seed Vault, aka the doomsday vault. Monsanto's terminator technology could starve us all.

Our food supply is under attack, and we are told the enemy is us. We are told that we have created a warming, but their weapons are advanced, and their skills are sharp, they make no mistakes, manure and herbicides, floods and drought, they all yield the same results.

SW Texas ultra-liberal

Non-GMO seeds are scarce

Bees are disappearing and we dont know why. It no longer rains here in Southwest Texas, but it is flooding in the midwest. Global warming or H.A.A.R.P. ? Agenda 21 threatens to take our water rights. It is widely believed that the elite want to starve us out, take all that we own and kill us off. The "voluntary extinction" campaign just another example of the pantheistic oligarchy and their wet dream of killing off the commoners.

First they will take the fuel, then the food and then the water. No water, no crops. Expensive fuel, expensive trucked food. Weather as a weapon has been around since the 60's, but it is not a weapon used on our supposed enemies. Once we had tornado alley, now tornados kill all over the US.

If you want to survive move to a rural area and have your own well, plant your own crops and get alternative power sources. I get LP gas for AG use at 2.50 a gallon for my tractor. Any farm truck can be switched to LP, it burns cleaner and is tax free. Make your move now before it is too late.
