Already one in seven Americans struggles to find food enough.
Mesdames et Messieurs,
The Kung Fu Instructor attended a meeting in Tokyo Prefecture earlier today with the Jow Ga Kung Fu High Council, and has received orders to issue an urgent warning to my respected subscribers. You must expect critical shortages in food, coupled with skyrocketing prices, starting this year. Needless to say, such developments will be accompanied by public disturbances and the onset of mass starvation, affecting the entire world.
As many of you may recall, food riots commenced in 2007 as a result of sharp increases in the prices for basic foodstuffs in several nations, as may be seen in the following report:
2007–2008 World Food Price Crisis
"The years 2007–2008 saw dramatic increases in world food prices, creating a global crisis and causing political and economical instability and social unrest in both poor and developed nations. Systemic causes for the worldwide increases in food prices continue to
be the subject of debate.
"Initial causes of the late 2006 price spikes included droughts in grain-producing nations and rising oil prices. Oil price increases also caused general escalations in the costs of fertilizers, food transportation, and industrial agriculture. Root causes may be the increasing use of biofuels in developed countries and an increasing demand for a more varied diet across the expanding middle-class populations of Asia.
"These factors, coupled with falling world-food stockpiles all contributed to the worldwide rise in food prices. Causes not commonly attributed by mainstream views include structural changes in trade and agricultural production, agricultural price supports and subsidies in developed nations, diversions of food commodities to high input foods and fuel, commodity market speculation, and climate change.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2007%E2%80%932008_world_food_price_crisis
Over 40 food riots occurred from 2007 to 2008, but as we entered the years of 2009 to 2010, the crisis seemed to be ameliorated to a significant degree. My sources now indicate, however, that our respite was only temporary. The situation for 2011 to 2012 is
expected by many experts to deteriorate rapidly, as heralded by the food riots in North Africa during the past week.
A Bolshevik Jew Stalin's famine raged through the Ukraine and lover Volga river section in 1932~33. 7 to 10 million starved to death.Most all of these were Christians. The NKVD stole the crops and livestock and forbad the farmers passage to seek food even though there were full silos of grain. Cannibalism became common.
Dehumanization of the Irish was necessary so the British media did so, portraying the Irish as sub human. This way no one would wish to help them.
The Kung Fu Instructor is familiar with the subject of death by starvation. My great-grandfather, a farmer and a member of the constituent assembly of the local government in Wilenskaya Province of the Russian Empire, died of starvation in 1919 when this region was occupied by the Red Army during the Polish-Soviet War. The Red Army was poorly supplied by the Jew Communist government in Moscow as a matter of policy, and confiscated the provisions of the local civilian populations in their areas of operations, leaving thousands to die of starvation.
And then we have my ancestors from Ireland. As recounted in an earlier dispatch, ANYONE who is of Irish descent has scores of relatives from their family tree who died of starvation during the Potato Famine of the mid-19th Century. If you are Irish, do you know their names?
The commonly accepted view of the Irish genocide places the blame on the failure of the potato crop, which could not be any further from the truth. In fact, Ireland was a cornucopia of foodstuffs, a breadbasket for Western Europe, and the great estates of the landed gentry exported immense quantities of grains, livestock, fruits and vegetables to Britain and other countries. So why weren't these foods diverted to the Irish when their staple crop, the potato, failed?
The Jewish bankers in London recognized that the English gentry in Ireland were heavily in debt, and the only way for them to service their debt was by exporting the produce of their estates. While it is true that most of the gentry wished to see the Irish inhabitants removed from their estates, and paid money to many of them to emigrate from the country, they in fact were prevented by their bankers from allocating a single morsel of food to their starving Irish tenants that was otherwise designated for export.

The British bankers had the Irish landowners selling their produce abroad while millions of Catholic and Christian Irish starved in what is wrongly called "The Potato Famine". This event is blamed in the history books on failing crops due to blight, but nothing could be further from the truth.
Of course, the British government acted in league with the Jews, and used the failure of the potato crop to force the starvation and emigration of millions of people from Ireland, in an effort to further subjugate that country.
I believe I may have mentioned my research of the historical archives in Minsk not too long ago. Genocide of the civilian populations of Lithuania, western Belarus, western Ukraine and eastern Poland occurred in 1940 at the hands of the Jews, a story that I shall relate to my subscribers in the near future.
What one learns from eyewitness accounts of that period is that the Jews will turn on you, and they will gather around and mock you as you are arrested, beaten, tortured, starved, and shot.
Oh? You say you have Jewish friends, dear friends of yours, that would never do such a thing to you? You say that there are good Jews and bad Jews, and that we only need to concern ourselves with the Zionists?
The Jews had it good in Poland and Lithuania during the interwar period, and like Dr. Jekyll they turned into Mr. Hyde. And what of the so-called "good-Jews"? They kept silent and didn't lift a finger to help the Poles and Lithuanians as they tried to escape. Not a single example of them helping the Poles and Lithuanians during this time has been recorded to my knowledge. Not one.
That is what you can expect from your Jews. They'll turn you in to the Red Chinese or whomever, and will laugh hysterically at you as you are dragged away. And if you try knocking on the door of your Jewish neighbor to see if you can hide in their basement, they'll either blow a hole in your chest with a 12-ga. shotgun as you plead for mercy, or will turn you over to the secret police with a cell phone call.
Yet remember the Ann Frank story and how she and her family were saved by Gentiles!
Since 1940 the Poles have been identified as the most anti-Semetic people in the world, with the Lithuanians a close second. That description has only been used since the genocide of 1940. Now you know why.
Cogitate on the information I have revealed to you. Dwell upon it. And as you do this, you may wish to watch the following music video as you struggle with your conflicting thoughts...

Food Riots 2011 ~ Doom And Gloom
January 14th, 2011
Have you noticed that most Americans seem to know far more about American Idol, Dancing with the Stars, Justin Bieber and their favorite sports teams than they do about world affairs?
And now it is your turn.
The Jews have big plans for us, don't you think?

Victims of the Bolshevik enforced famine
in Buzuluk, Volga Region, next to Saratov
Does this not remind you of the Jewish victims of the Nazis?
But do you ever hear of what the Jews did to other peoples?
But do you ever hear of what the Jews did to other peoples?
Let me tell you something, my friend. The Poles and Lithuanians thought the same thing in 1939. Account after account details the shock they experienced when their local Jews showed what traitors they were as they welcomed the Red Army when it invaded Poland and Lithuania that year. Their utter disbelief as they observed local Jews accompanying the Soviet NKVD to finger members of the government, military, clergy, gentry, intelligentsia, and civil service, for arrest and liquidation.

Food Riots 2011 ~ Doom And Gloom
January 14th, 2011
Have you noticed that most Americans seem to know far more about American Idol, Dancing with the Stars, Justin Bieber and their favorite sports teams than they do about world affairs?
Most Americans cannot even find Tunisia and Algeria on a map, and if you told them that food riots are happening in those nations right now most of them would not even care anyway. We have become a very self-centered, self-involved and self-absorbed nation. Quite a few people have accused this column of being obsessed with "doom and gloom", but the truth is that the world really is falling apart out there.
What are we supposed to do?
Are we all supposed to stick our heads in the sand and pretend that everything is going to be okay?
Should we all not try to warn others so that they can prepare for what is coming?
Until people understand that we are facing absolutely massive problems they are not going to be motivated to take significant action, and hopefully those of us that are proclaiming
"doom and gloom" are doing a good enough job of describing what is really going on out there that some people are starting to wake up and actually make changes.
Most Americans may not care, but the food riots that are starting to erupt around the globe are actually very serious.
Do you remember what happened back in the summer of 2008?
That summer, the price of oil spiked to an all-time high of $147 a barrel and that caused a substantial increase in the price of food all over the globe. Suddenly millions of poor people couldn't afford to feed themselves anymore and food riots erupted all over the world.
Well, here we are in 2011 and the price of oil hasn't even reached $100 a barrel, and yet the food riots are already beginning.
Violent food riots are being reported in Tunisia, in Algeria, in Chile and in Mozambique.
In Tunisia, the riots have been so intense that the President of Tunisia, Zine El Abidine Ben Ali, has been forced to step down and flee for his life.
Yes, that is how serious things are getting already.
Unfortunately, it looks like the global food situation is only going to get even worse.
Australia is a major food producer and right now they are experiencing flooding of Biblical proportions. In fact, it has been reported that at one point the flooding covered an area greater than France and Germany combined.
In Brazil, another major food producer, horrific flooding has killed more than 500 people so far. This flooding is being called the "worst-ever natural disaster" in the history of Brazil.
Meanwhile, record cold temperatures and record snowfalls are playing havoc with winter crops all over the Northern Hemisphere.
But even before all of these weather disasters struck the price of food had been going up significantly. The UN recently announced that the global price of food hit an all-time high during the month of December, and world leaders all over the globe are openly expressing concern about what 2011 is going to bring.
Sadly, the truth is that there has been a trend of rising food prices for quite some time. According to Forbes, corn is up 94% since June, soybeans are up 51% since June, and wheat is up 80% since last June.
As one of my readers recently pointed out to me, it usually takes about six months for the prices of agricultural futures to filter down into the supermarkets. So the very high prices for agricultural commodities that we are seeing right now should really start to be felt around the globe by the middle of 2011.
In addition to everything else, reports continue to come in of thousands of birds and millions of fish suddenly dying all over the globe, and nobody seems to really know what is causing it.
Do you want some more doom and gloom?
*There are reports of "panic buying" of silver and other precious metals right now.
*Investors are bailing out of municipal bonds at an absolutely staggering rate.
*S&P and Moody's have both warned once again that the United States is in danger of having its credit rating slashed if it does not get government debt under control.
*U.S. housing prices have now fallen further during this economic downturn than they did during the Great Depression of the 1930s. Meanwhile, America's economic infrastructure continues to be taken apart piece by piece.
The United States is losing more jobs to China. In fact, the United States is losing more high technology "green jobs" to China.
Evergreen Solar, a company that manufactures solar panels, is closing their factory in Devon, Massachusetts and they are moving their production facilities to China. This is going to result in the loss of 800 good American jobs.
The following is what the company had to say in a statement about the move....
"Solar manufacturers in China have received considerable government and financial support and, together with their low manufacturing costs, have become price leaders within the industry."
Is it any wonder that a recent survey found that 47 percent of Americans now believe that China is the world's leading economic power while only 31 percent still believe that the United States is the world's leading economic power?
As America continues to lose good jobs, millions of Americans find themselves simply unable to pay the bills. In fact, at this point one out of every six Americans is now enrolled in at least one government-run anti-poverty program.
As things have fallen apart in the United States, many private citizens have tried to step forward and do what they can to help people, but now in many areas of the country the government is actually stepping in and shutting down these private avenues of assistance.
For example, in the city of Houston, Texas a couple named Bobby and Amanda Herring has been feeding homeless people for over a year. They never left behind any trash and no trouble was ever caused.
But now the city of Houston is shutting them down.
Why?
Because they don't have a permit.
So will they be able to get a permit? Well, it turns out that city officials are saying that this "Feed a Friend" effort most likely will be denied one.
Apparently the city "officials" believe that the homeless "are the most vulnerable to food borne illness" and that therefore the warm meals that the Herrings were providing for them were potentially dangerous.
Can you believe this?
This is what happens when political correctness and bureaucracy get wildly out of control.
Now it is illegal to go out and feed homeless people?
What is American turning into?
As the economy continues to fall part, the iron grip of the government is likely only going to get tighter as it desperately tries to keep order.
But do we really need to be giving tickets to 6-year-olds?
Yes, you read that correctly.
According to one recent report, police in Texas have given "1,000 tickets to elementary school children in 10 school districts" over the past six years.
For more examples of how America is turning into a police state, please see my recent article entitled "Almost Everything Is A Crime In America Now: 14 Of The Most Ridiculous Things That Americans Are Being Arrested For".
America is rapidly becoming a VERY dark place.
The truth is that there is a reason why so many websites are now reporting so much "doom and gloom". Things really are getting bad out there.
Most Americans have been conditioned to believe that while we may have brief "recessions" once in a while, in the end our economy will always get better and the good times will continue to roll.
But the good news is that an increasing number of Americans are waking up and are trying to warn their family and friends about what is coming.
So do you believe that the food shortages and the food riots are going to get even worse throughout the rest of 2011? Please feel free to leave a comment with your thoughts below....

This article is spot on! There is no time to waste and fret over if it’s going to happen. The time for preparedness is RIGHT NOW PEOPLE!! We are at a crossroads of human existence. The cycle of time and the ancient civilizations all prophesied this to come about, and it is here.
The planetary changes that are upon us, the solar activity that is coming, will put an end to society as we know it. If you don’t have food, water, and a way to barter for goods, you will not survive the coming events!
The time for watching TV, and being brainwashed by the evil forces at the top of this holographic fiat monetary system are over. Their time is ending. There is no way to stop the impending collapse of the entire world economic system. It is over, and the governments of the world know it, they will not tell you this, but it is over.
It is time to prepare for the dark times ahead, but to fear not what the darkness has in store, for if you believe in the love of the human heart, which controls the whole universe, then you will realize our time is nearing for a new age of existence, where money, politics, and religion will not interfere with the destiny that is ours.
We are almost there, and they know this. They are the frightened ones, for the control they have over us is about to END! So follow your heart and believe in yourself, and the most wondrous journey awaits
us!

And yet another report...
Posted by EU Times on Jan 13th, 2011
A grim report prepared by France’s General Directorate for External Security (DGSE) obtained by Russia’s Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR) states that president’s Obama and Sarkozy have “agreed in principal” to create a joint US-European military force to deal exclusively with a Global uprising expected this spring as our World runs out of food.
According to this report, Sarkozy, as head of the G-20 group of developed Nations, called for and received an emergency meeting with Obama this past Monday at the White House wherein he warned his American counterpart that the shock rise in food prices occurring due to an unprecedented series of disasters was threatening the stability of the entire World and could lead to the outbreak of Total Global War.
Just last week French Prime Minister Francois Fillon underlined that one of France’s top G-20 priorities was to find a collective response to “excessive volatility” in food prices now occurring, a statement joined by Philippe Chalmin, a top economic adviser to the French government, who warned the World may face social unrest including food riots in April as grain prices increase to unprecedented highs.
The fears of the French government over growing Global instability was realized this past week after food riots erupted in Algeria and Tunisia and left over 50 dead. So dire has the situation become in Tunisia that their government this morning rushed in massive amounts of troops and tanks to their capital city Tunis and instituted a Nationwide curfew in an order to quell the growing violence.
The United Nations, also, warned this past Friday that millions of people are now at risk after food prices hit their highest level ever as Global wheat stocks fell to 175.2 million tons from 196.7 million tons a year ago; Global corn stocks are said may be 127.3 million tons at the end of this season, compared with last month’s USDA outlook for 130 million tons; and Global soybean inventories will drop to 58.78 million tons at the end of this season, from 60.4 million tons a year earlier.
Robert Zoellick, president of the World Bank, further warned this past week that rising food prices are “a threat to global growth and social stability” as our World, for the first time in living memory, has been warned is just “one poor harvest away from chaos”.
Important to note about how dire the Global food situation has become is to understand the disasters that have befallen our World’s top wheat growing Nations this past year, and who in descending order are: China, India, United States, Russia, France, Canada, Germany, Ukraine, Australia and Pakistan.
From China’s disaster: 2010 China drought and dust storms were a series of severe droughts during the spring of 2010 that affected Yunnan, Guizhou, Guangxi, Sichuan, Shanxi, Henan, Shaanxi, Chongqing, Hebei and Gansu in the People’s Republic of China as well as parts of Southeast Asia including Vietnam and Thailand, and dust storms in March and April that affected much of East Asia. The drought has been referred to as the worst in a century in southwestern China.
From India’s disaster: A record heat wave and growing water crisis in India are forcing politicians to consider implementing user fees and other measures to conserve water. Sri Lanka’s President Mahinda Rajapaksa yesterday instructed ministers and officials to prepare a strategic plan to face an impending food crisis as there were signs that the World is to confront a food shortage by next April.
From Russia’s disaster: (10% of total World’s output, 20% for export) they were hit by the highest recorded temperatures Russia has seen in 130 years of recordkeeping; the most widespread drought in more than three decades; and massive wildfires that have stretched across seven regions, including Moscow.
From France’s disaster: The French government lowered their wheat crop forecast by 2.7% over last year due to drought and cold weather.
From Canada’s disaster: Record setting drought has affected their main grain producing provinces in the Western part of their Nation.
From Ukraine’s disaster: (the World’s top producer of barley and sixth biggest of wheat) hit as hard as Russia by fire and drought to the point they have halted all their exports of grains in 2011.
From Australia’s disaster: Fears of a Global wheat shortage have risen after the Queensland area of Australia was hit by calamitous flooding. Andrew Fraser, Queensland’s State Treasurer, described the floods as a “disaster of biblical proportions”. Water is covering land the size of France and Germany. It is expected to reach over 30 feet deep in some areas in coming days.
From Pakistan’s disaster: Floods have submerged 17 million acres of Pakistan’s most fertile crop land, have killed 200,000 herd of livestock and have washed away massive amounts of grain and left farmers unable to meet the fall deadline for planting new seeds, which implies a massive loss of food production in 2011, and potential long term food shortages.
Not only have the vast majority of our World’s top wheat producers been affected, but also one of the main grain producing regions on the Planet, South America, has been hit by disasters too where an historic drought has crippled Argentina and Bolivia, and Brazil, that region's largest nation, has been hit with catastrophic floods that have killed nearly 400 people in the past few days alone.
Even the United States has been hit as a catastrophic winter has seen 49 of their 50 States covered by snow causing unprecedented damage to their crops in Florida due to freezing weather, and record setting rains destroying massive numbers of crops in their most important growing region of California.
And if you think that things couldn’t get any worse you couldn’t be more mistaken as South Korea (one of the most important meat exporters in Asia) has just this past week had to destroy millions of farm animals after an outbreak of the dreaded foot-and-mouth disease was discovered.
To how horrific the Global food situation will become this year was made even more grim this past month when the United States reported that nearly all of their honey bee and bumblebee populations have died out, and when coupled with the “mysterious” die-off of the entire bat population in America means that the two main pollinators of fruit and vegetable plants will no longer be able to do their jobs leading to crop losses this report warns will be “biblical and catastrophic”.
And so today, as agricultural traders and analysts warn that the latest revision to US and Global stocks means there is no further room for weather problems, a new cyclone is preparing to hit Australia, brutal winter weather in India has killed nearly 130, and more snow is warned to hit America, and we’re not even two full weeks into 2011… may God have mercy on us all.

And so, ladies and gentlemen, you have seen the writing on the wall. What do you propose to do about it, hmmm?
"doom and gloom" are doing a good enough job of describing what is really going on out there that some people are starting to wake up and actually make changes.
Most Americans may not care, but the food riots that are starting to erupt around the globe are actually very serious.

The planetary changes that are upon us, the solar activity that is coming, will put an end to society as we know it. If you don’t have food, water, and a way to barter for goods, you will not survive the coming events!
The time for watching TV, and being brainwashed by the evil forces at the top of this holographic fiat monetary system are over. Their time is ending. There is no way to stop the impending collapse of the entire world economic system. It is over, and the governments of the world know it, they will not tell you this, but it is over.
It is time to prepare for the dark times ahead, but to fear not what the darkness has in store, for if you believe in the love of the human heart, which controls the whole universe, then you will realize our time is nearing for a new age of existence, where money, politics, and religion will not interfere with the destiny that is ours.
We are almost there, and they know this. They are the frightened ones, for the control they have over us is about to END! So follow your heart and believe in yourself, and the most wondrous journey awaits
us!

And yet another report...
OBAMA ORDERS MILITARY
TO PREPARE FOR SPRING FOOD RIOTS
TO PREPARE FOR SPRING FOOD RIOTS
Posted by EU Times on Jan 13th, 2011
A grim report prepared by France’s General Directorate for External Security (DGSE) obtained by Russia’s Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR) states that president’s Obama and Sarkozy have “agreed in principal” to create a joint US-European military force to deal exclusively with a Global uprising expected this spring as our World runs out of food.
According to this report, Sarkozy, as head of the G-20 group of developed Nations, called for and received an emergency meeting with Obama this past Monday at the White House wherein he warned his American counterpart that the shock rise in food prices occurring due to an unprecedented series of disasters was threatening the stability of the entire World and could lead to the outbreak of Total Global War.
Just last week French Prime Minister Francois Fillon underlined that one of France’s top G-20 priorities was to find a collective response to “excessive volatility” in food prices now occurring, a statement joined by Philippe Chalmin, a top economic adviser to the French government, who warned the World may face social unrest including food riots in April as grain prices increase to unprecedented highs.
The fears of the French government over growing Global instability was realized this past week after food riots erupted in Algeria and Tunisia and left over 50 dead. So dire has the situation become in Tunisia that their government this morning rushed in massive amounts of troops and tanks to their capital city Tunis and instituted a Nationwide curfew in an order to quell the growing violence.
The United Nations, also, warned this past Friday that millions of people are now at risk after food prices hit their highest level ever as Global wheat stocks fell to 175.2 million tons from 196.7 million tons a year ago; Global corn stocks are said may be 127.3 million tons at the end of this season, compared with last month’s USDA outlook for 130 million tons; and Global soybean inventories will drop to 58.78 million tons at the end of this season, from 60.4 million tons a year earlier.
Robert Zoellick, president of the World Bank, further warned this past week that rising food prices are “a threat to global growth and social stability” as our World, for the first time in living memory, has been warned is just “one poor harvest away from chaos”.
Important to note about how dire the Global food situation has become is to understand the disasters that have befallen our World’s top wheat growing Nations this past year, and who in descending order are: China, India, United States, Russia, France, Canada, Germany, Ukraine, Australia and Pakistan.
A Chinese farmer during the 2010 drought and dust storms.
From China’s disaster: 2010 China drought and dust storms were a series of severe droughts during the spring of 2010 that affected Yunnan, Guizhou, Guangxi, Sichuan, Shanxi, Henan, Shaanxi, Chongqing, Hebei and Gansu in the People’s Republic of China as well as parts of Southeast Asia including Vietnam and Thailand, and dust storms in March and April that affected much of East Asia. The drought has been referred to as the worst in a century in southwestern China.
From India’s disaster: A record heat wave and growing water crisis in India are forcing politicians to consider implementing user fees and other measures to conserve water. Sri Lanka’s President Mahinda Rajapaksa yesterday instructed ministers and officials to prepare a strategic plan to face an impending food crisis as there were signs that the World is to confront a food shortage by next April.
From Russia’s disaster: (10% of total World’s output, 20% for export) they were hit by the highest recorded temperatures Russia has seen in 130 years of recordkeeping; the most widespread drought in more than three decades; and massive wildfires that have stretched across seven regions, including Moscow.
From France’s disaster: The French government lowered their wheat crop forecast by 2.7% over last year due to drought and cold weather.
From Canada’s disaster: Record setting drought has affected their main grain producing provinces in the Western part of their Nation.
From Ukraine’s disaster: (the World’s top producer of barley and sixth biggest of wheat) hit as hard as Russia by fire and drought to the point they have halted all their exports of grains in 2011.
Australian farm land before the floods reached peak proportions.
From Australia’s disaster: Fears of a Global wheat shortage have risen after the Queensland area of Australia was hit by calamitous flooding. Andrew Fraser, Queensland’s State Treasurer, described the floods as a “disaster of biblical proportions”. Water is covering land the size of France and Germany. It is expected to reach over 30 feet deep in some areas in coming days.
From Pakistan’s disaster: Floods have submerged 17 million acres of Pakistan’s most fertile crop land, have killed 200,000 herd of livestock and have washed away massive amounts of grain and left farmers unable to meet the fall deadline for planting new seeds, which implies a massive loss of food production in 2011, and potential long term food shortages.
Not only have the vast majority of our World’s top wheat producers been affected, but also one of the main grain producing regions on the Planet, South America, has been hit by disasters too where an historic drought has crippled Argentina and Bolivia, and Brazil, that region's largest nation, has been hit with catastrophic floods that have killed nearly 400 people in the past few days alone.
Even the United States has been hit as a catastrophic winter has seen 49 of their 50 States covered by snow causing unprecedented damage to their crops in Florida due to freezing weather, and record setting rains destroying massive numbers of crops in their most important growing region of California.
And if you think that things couldn’t get any worse you couldn’t be more mistaken as South Korea (one of the most important meat exporters in Asia) has just this past week had to destroy millions of farm animals after an outbreak of the dreaded foot-and-mouth disease was discovered.
To how horrific the Global food situation will become this year was made even more grim this past month when the United States reported that nearly all of their honey bee and bumblebee populations have died out, and when coupled with the “mysterious” die-off of the entire bat population in America means that the two main pollinators of fruit and vegetable plants will no longer be able to do their jobs leading to crop losses this report warns will be “biblical and catastrophic”.
Chillingly to note is that
after meeting with Sarkozy,
Obama began implementing his Nation’s strategy
for keeping the truth of these dire events
from reaching the American people
by ordering all US citizens
to have an Internet ID
so that they can be tracked and jailed
should they begin telling the truth
about anything the government feels is subversive.
And so today, as agricultural traders and analysts warn that the latest revision to US and Global stocks means there is no further room for weather problems, a new cyclone is preparing to hit Australia, brutal winter weather in India has killed nearly 130, and more snow is warned to hit America, and we’re not even two full weeks into 2011… may God have mercy on us all.

And so, ladies and gentlemen, you have seen the writing on the wall. What do you propose to do about it, hmmm?
I just have to say thank you, the info about the Ukraine famine along with the pictures have helped me a great deal on a project that I'm doing for school. I cited everything, so don't think that I stole any information.
