Obama Orders Military to Prepare for Spring Food Riots

Please read the following with open eyes. While the
general information is true, the author takes great leaps (see title) to form possibly incorrect conclusions.

Natural disasters hammering countries mentioned below are correct and many are ongoing. Besides impacting lives, homes and infrastructure another disaster casualty is massive crop loss.

What I take issue with in this article is the leading premise that Presidents Nicolas Sarkozy and Obama met solely to discuss probable food riots and that Obama has ordered our military to prepare for same.

Information from the Financial Times indicates that the meeting
primarily focused on reforming the international monetary system. Nowhere in the FT article is food mentioned.

However, an APF article indicates that the pair would discuss soaring food prices and again, stabilizing world currency. The main aim was to lessen the US dollar's central role in the global economy and give greater weight to rising economies - specifically China, India, Brazil and Russia according to the NY Times.

Anther discussion point was the Middle East mess, but nowhere in these two articles is food riots mentioned - or even 'food' for that matter. They were to hash over commodities in general, which does include food. So, food riots appear to be a tangential discussion, not a central one.

Over the past decade US relations with France have severely
deteriorated from the once cozy state when they gifted us with the Statue of Liberty. It appears that with Obama's statement "We don't have a stronger friend and a stronger ally than Nicolas Sarkozy and the French people" he is making strides toward repairing relations.

Another facet of their meeting was a discussion of global economic imbalances. Understandably, the "have nots" want what the "haves" enjoy and discussion along these lines is yet another attempt to hustle along the New
World Order. Let's level the playing field, make the world one large pot of brown instead of colors and ethnicities of distinction as God designed. This blending is definitely on Obama's socialist-leaning agenda.

Those things aside, our military has been conducting drills to deal with social unrest. We posted a news item on Unified Quest 2011 late last year. This is a year-long war games series that look at a variety of concerns and how to deal with them, including:

a.. "large scale economic breakdown" inside of the United States

b.. how to maintain "domestic order amid civil unrest"

c.. and ways to deal with fragmented global power and drastically lower budgets

Clearly, the U.S. government is making contingency plans to deal with a worst-case, all-out-collapse scenario of not only the economy, but our social and political systems.

The war gaming, according to reports, began in 2008 at the onset of the economic crisis. Planners aren't just from not just the US, but around the globe, may have been aware of the dire possibility of economic collapse even earlier.

This push toward military involvement in civilian control didn't originate with Obama, but came into full force under the George W. Bush with the "John Warner Defense Authorization Act of 2007". Though its contents has faded from many of our memories, this landmark legislation has shocking parameters, not just implications. If you want a refresher, see Bush Moves
Toward Martial Law.

So while much of the information below is correct we may not agree with the initial premise. However, IF we have an ugly spring-summer weather-wise, it could have a devastating impact on our food supply. Food prices are already soaring globally, primarily due to weather-related issues and another slam on reserves could make availability rather grim and very,
very expensive.
