Peak Food

"I don’t want to alarm anybody, but maybe it’s time for Americans to start stockpiling food. No this is not a drill."
--Brett Arends, Wall Street Journal

Food Riots are Coming to the U.S.

"Global food prices have gone through the roof, terrifying the 3 billion or so people who live off less than $2 a day. This should terrify everybody else. In November, the UN Food and Agricultural Organization reported that food prices had suffered a 18 percent inflation in China, 13 percent in Indonesia and Pakistan, and 10 percent or more in Latin America, Russia and India. The devil in the detail is even more distressing: a doubling in the price of wheat, a twenty percent increase in the price of rice, an increase by half in maize prices."

See the footage of "Operation Urban Warrior" in this video at about 4 1/2 minutes in.
"Foreign troops trained alongside US marines, practicing taking over american cities, rounding up american civilians and imprisoning them, in barbed wire "containment camps".
Conditioning the troops included having the actors posing as american citizens beg them for food and loudly proclaim that their constitutional rights were being violated.
The troops were trained to ignore these pleas and accept them as part of urban warfare."
