#5  Smirked a babushka, "Sure, of a surety,
Tis a pile of, er, crystaline purity
From a Bear who explained
While neck-deep in Ukraine
That the world could face 'food insecurity."

#2  "Ukraine War Threatens to Cause a Global Food Crisis
"A critical share of the world’s food and fertilizer is stuck in Russia and Ukraine, sending global prices soaring and foreshadowing a rise in world hunger. Rising prices and hunger present a potential new dimension to the world’s view of the war. Could they further fuel anger at Russia and calls for intervention? Or would frustration be targeted at the Western sanctions that are helping to trap food and fertilizer?"

"Calls for intervention" means World War III - there's a brilliant solution to famine and revolution. Africa, India and the Middle East will take Russia's side and blame US sanctions.

#1  Pretty much accurate.

The US and EU have a policy of coercion, threats, hijacks of international transactions that hurt populations rather than regimes. It is a conveniently cruel attitude adopted by only truly evil cliques. Like killing off all bison just to starve native Americans and gloat over the 'masterful strategy' as 'victors'. This attitude continues to this day.

If the eastern nations do conspire together to chip away at that capacity and create a bloc to counter the overbearing influence of the west, no one can grudge them that. American peeps should instead revolt against their new establishment which is turning this age old policy of coercion and economic threats inward, toward Republicans and classic liberals and everybody who doesn't want a gay rape paradise run by afromarxist pimps and crazy women.
