“Overpopulation” and Funding of WWIII – ‘Operation Barbarossa 2’
“Wars are horrible. The only good thing about wars is that they help reduce the world population.”
These are the words flung in my face not too long ago, by a person I
thought was close to me. I was in shock and asked what do you mean? “Well, don’t you think the world is over-populated?” –
I couldn’t believe that these were the thoughts of somebody I had
respected. They may well be the thoughts of common people in my close
vicinity. By opening my eyes to a dimension I ignored until then – the
secret thoughts and dreams of people, maybe of the masses began
revealing themselves; thoughts that are expressed only in an ambiance of
familiarity, or perhaps when ‘under the influence’, when often the
inner-most truths come to the fore.
Over-population is a western ego-centric phantasy. Western Comfort is
afraid of having to share some of their excesses with the poor
under-humans of so-called developing countries in Asia, Africa and Latin
America – the slowly emerging Continents that have been raped for
hundreds of years by precisely the same western colonialists which today
claim over-population and wage war around the world in a new form of
colonialism.
According to FAO – the UN’s World Food Organization – the globe’s
current agricultural potential could feed at least 12 billion people, if
only the food would not be subject to speculation and would be properly
distributed. But it isn’t. Food crop speculators in the US and in
Europe, command the price – they literally control who may live and who
must die – by famine.
According to the World Bank, 80% of the food-price hike induced
famine of 2008 / 2009 that precipitated the death of 2 million people in
Asia and Africa was the result of food speculation. Three weeks ago,
the Swiss Government recommended its electorate to reject a Swiss
socialist-led people’s initiative against food speculation. Their main
arguments were denial that food speculation caused famine; and “if we forbid food speculation, the speculators will leave Switzerland and make their profit elsewhere”. With the prevailing neoliberal thinking: Profit über Alles,
ethics has no place. The Swiss populace indeed complied and rejected
the initiative with a margin of almost 2:3. The financial centers of
Switzerland in Zurich and Geneva control some of the largest food
speculators in the world. The nefarious speculative business practices
of Place Finance Suisse are alive and well.
