Globalist Weaponization of Food and How Food Sovereignty Can Come to the Rescue

by Richard C. Cook, Co-Founder and Lead Investigator, American Geopolitical Institute.

Food as a Weapon

Control of food has been used throughout history as a weapon of war.

Besieged cities with their food and water supply cut off have always been easy prey of conquerors. The same with nations or regions whose ability to grow food has been reduced or eliminated either by human attackers, neglect, or by natural conditions.

Attacking the food supply of whole peoples was a standard tool used by the Western colonialist powers. In the U.S., the Army destroyed the livelihood of the plains Indians by the wanton slaughter of untold numbers of buffalo. Under Stalin, the Soviet Union committed genocide against millions of peasants by causing famine. Something similar happened in Communist China. Israel is doing it to the people of Gaza today.

Back to American, after the Indians were herded onto reservations, they could survive only through food supplied by the government that could be cut off for bad behavior or by official malfeasance. Today, many government programs are geared toward providing benefits to lower income groups through aid like food stamps, school breakfasts and lunches, and food aid to the elderly. Without these benefits, human survival would be at stake.

Now we are seeing what is shaping up to be a campaign of worldwide population reduction by governments under the sway of globalist influences. The best recent example is the COVID pandemic, which increasingly is being seen as release of a deadly engineered virus followed by toxic vaccines injected into the bodies of billions of people.

Now, with the hyping of the avian flu as the pandemic to come, we are beginning to see the enforced culling of millions of chickens, even as new “vaccines” for humans are being engineered. Food recalls are also appearing that involve the destruction of millions of pounds of food based on the claimed contamination with extremely small amounts of alleged microbes.

Is a massive assault on the food supply underway? Many people believe so. This includes those stockpiling quantities of preserved food in case of civil disorder, collapse of the money supply, assaults by the authorities on their own populations, environmental disasters, or war.

Degradation of the Food Supply Through Economic Factors

A less visible threat to the food supply takes place through economic factors. Among these is the use of sanctions by the U.S. as a foreign policy weapon. Cutting off foreign nations from international trade especially affects their ability to provide health care to their populations as well as degrading their agricultural productivity. Estimates are that a third of the nations of the world today fall under U.S. economic sanctions, including Russia, Iran, North Korea, Syria, Venezuela, Nicaragua, Belarus, and Ethiopia. See Here.

But even within the developed world, government policy, such as actions on “climate change” have a degrading effect. For instance, Great Britain has cut its domestic ammonia production, which reduces fertilizer supplies. Similar is a shift toward electric vehicles, as Germany has done, even though production of EVs uses more electricity than does diesel or gasoline-powered trucks and autos. The added expense of transportation also makes food production more expensive.

In the U.S. and other countries, rising cost of food causes a shift to cheaper ultra-processed products with increased use of sugar, refined corn and soy ingredients, and other cheap additives, with attendant loss of nutritional quality, leading to rising levels of human illness due to obesity, chronic illnesses like diabetes, etc.

The motive for all this is financial profits. In fact, the profit motive is diametrically opposed to the attainment of food quality and other aspects of sustainable, healthy lifestyles by populations increasingly alienated from direct involvement in farming, gardening, or participation in the food production and marketing cycle.

The word that best defines the profit motive in food and nutrition is “Agribusiness.” For instance, only four industrial giants dominate meat processing in the U.S., with farmers and ranchers forced to haul their livestock long distances to participate in the retail meat market. People who live in more primitive conditions are more insulated from the evils of agribusiness than those in urban environments who have lost the ability or lack suitable conditions to grow their own food.

“Food Sovereignty” a Solution

A movement known as Food Sovereignty has recently come into being to combat the trends that endanger human life through degradation of the food supply. The term became current through its introduction within the U.S. Native American community, where lack of nutritious food due to reliance on cheap, nutritionally-deficient products at reservation grocery stores has caused a major health crisis.

Food Sovereignty acknowledges our sacred bond with Mother Earth which provides nourishment for human individuals and families who cultivate their own food , thus allowing them to benefit from our spiritual bond with the Creator of all life.

Food Sovereignty recognizes that everyone can grow some of their own food supply and support those who maintain the human population as a vocation that should be a cornerstone of community life. Food cultivation should not be the monopoly of corporate financial greed but rather a pillar of sane and sustainable living across all lines of society and nationality.

Food Sovereignty restores the human family to sanity, balance, and responsible living. It is a gateway to the restoration of values that have been lost over centuries of industrial exploitation and financial grifting.

Thus governments should encourage and support good nutrition, family farming, local food production, and widespread availability of food processing and marketing. Food safety should be combined with policies of accessibility and abundance.

Conclusion

The forces of globalism have weaponized food production for their own selfish goals of profiteering and population reduction. Food Sovereignty can turn this dire situation around. For more information, See Here.
