What's REALLY Behind Israel's MASSIVE Bee Release in the Desert?

What's REALLY Behind Israel's MASSIVE Bee Release in the Desert?

In one of the hottest places on Earth, Israel sent millions of bees into the Negev Desert — and the results shocked scientists, farmers, and the global agriculture industry.

While bee populations are collapsing worldwide due to pesticides, disease, and climate change, Israel discovered something unexpected: desert conditions may actually protect bees. Using advanced greenhouse farming, controlled pollination, and cutting-edge bee technology, Israel turned one of the world’s harshest deserts into a food-producing powerhouse.

In this documentary-style breakdown, we explore:

Why bees are dying globally — and why Israel is different

How desert isolation protects bees from disease and pollution

Israel’s use of bumblebees, buzz pollination, and AI-powered beehives

How desert farming increased crop yields by up to 60%

The role of Israeli ag-tech companies like Beewise, BeeHero, and BioBee

Why this experiment could reshape global food security

With climate change threatening pollinators and food supply chains, Israel’s desert bee strategy may hold the blueprint for the future of agriculture — not just in the Middle East, but worldwide.

This video reveals how engineering, biology, and necessity combined to solve one of the biggest threats to human survival: the collapse of pollinators.

📌 Watch till the end to see how this desert experiment is already being copied in California, the UAE, and beyond.

Bees are always affected by the local climate. Have been for 130 million years. In fact, they were a result of a gift from God by using Climate Change (beginning of the Cretaceous Period)...There has been a whole lot of Climate Change in Earth’s history, for sure.

I’m not a Bibi fan.

He’s really just center right, but looked dramatically better than Obama, which is why I think conservatives like him in the USA.

That said, Bibi is not the type, I don’t think. He has plenty of flaws, but he doesn’t have that pervert creep vibe I’ve picked up on.

Ehud Barack, in contrast, gives me the willies and always has.

Maybe all the bees that released are actually spy drones..after all, Israel has been accused of controlling the weather, including causing the drought in Iran, etc. Such power. The joke has always been that if Jews control the weather, they are doing a lousy job!

Most of these bees are very gentle European bees, but the native bees are Syran Honey Bees. Not as mean as “Killer African Bees” but someone dies every year or so getting swarmed, as they are definitely defensive.

Look for some idiot messing with a hive and getting killed by the local bees and “the Joooos” getting blamed.

And all the toxic pesticides out there?

In terms of mass, yes. In terms of species richness and adaptability, definitely not.

First the seagulls. Then the sharks. Now the bees. Those Jooos! could have one helluva circus, but instead they’re always picking on poor Muslims.

Caucasus Mountain Bees are supposed to be the most gentle in the world. But chuck them in the desert, they might get ornery, too.

I remember when the Pali-Bunch claimed Jews trained sharks to attack followers of Islam. So now, logical analysis of the bunch, these will be Jewbees, swarming Islam.

Ha-ha! That’s funny. Teary eyed BEE-livers! The jumpy camera shots add to the chaos and hysteria.

I have found Italian Queens bred in Texas to be my most predictable in behavior hives. I twice bought “Caucasian, and Carniolan” queens for hive re-queening. They are marketed as docile. I found nothing could be further from reality. The hives became dangerous to the neighborhood. One lawn mower two hundred feet away would but them on alert.

I actually do. I grew up on a farm using greenhouses in Gush Katif and we had our own hives.

Little trivia about bees; once they got to know you, they’d greet you and even come and alert you something was going one (like too much honey clogging up their hive or invading wasps or whatever).

As a group they are amazingly intelligent.

The Caucasian Mountain strain is the docile one, the Caucasian flatlanders are the opposite. At least that’s what the bee encyclopedia from 1946, that I once read, said.

I lived south of the Shell oil refinery and practically next to Monsanto . Lots of bees around that area and the local farmers use plenty of Monsanto products. They grow tons of corn, wheat, milo, horseradish, soybeans and orchard crops in and near the river bottoms area where the company is. There have always been lots of European honeybees there, bumblebees, carpenter bees, and yellowjackets galore , too.

Unless and until humans learn to communicate with Apis mellifera directly, there is no possibility of communicating with space aliens

The colony is the individual.
