Coincidentally, our agriculture minister came from Rockefeller Foundation
America's foreign policy has always been about maximizing its economic interests at all costs. That America shouldn't be mistaken as a softer, a kinder, and a gentler empire — notwithstanding its display of internal freedom and democracy — wasn't in doubt. And that was demonstrated by the speed with which it went about consolidating and maximizing control of global power upon taking it from Britain, as never seen since the time of Alexander the Great. The actions within its elite foreign policy circles demonstrated that. And this was clearly confirmed in a 1948 internal memo by George Kennan, US State Department Senior Planning Official, where he said, ''…we will have to dispense with all sentimentality and day-dreaming; and our attention will have to be concentrated everywhere on our immediate national objectives. We need not deceive ourselves that we can afford today the luxury of altruism and world-benefaction.''
Unified under Rockefeller's vertically integrated global oil empire, it also quickly consolidated its food and agricultural empire. First it exported its fake Green Revolution, which went hand-in-hand with its agribusiness globalization under a centralized control by the Rockefeller-controlled private corporations.

Destroying developing countries' food sufficiency became the starting point; otherwise it could have been difficult to force them to join the Rockefeller food empire. But where could this inevitable destruction start than from luring them into Rockefeller's petrochemical fertilizer and pesticide driven Green Revolution? Expectedly, caught in this trap, came the devastation of their local agro-biodiversity thanks to the introduction of crop monoculture, which caused soil leeching and destroyed its vital nutrients; thanks to excessive pesticides, which besides killing off other plant and animal species, air, water, and land pollution, also distressed local farm economies;

What's most unfortunate is that globalism trots around the globe carrying the American flag.
For an overview of the Rockefeller Foundation, consult its wikipedia article, which mentions the Green Revolution.
Be sure to review the lists of people at the bottom of the article.
FYI... I thought it odd taht Sandra Day O'Connor is listed as a trustee of the Rockefeller Foundation.
What's even more odd, IMHO, is that several Supreme Court justices, including O'Connor, are members of the Council on Foreign Relations, the supremely influential diplomatic club of globalism.
What he's talking about may be to a degree situationally true, but this is by no means a reliable source. That you would cite it as reliable shows you unreliable.
Take me off your ping list please. I never asked to be on it.
Been a long time brewing. The Ford foundation pushes jihad and fascist leftism. IBM has high-ranking tecnocrats as members of occupy. Microsoft’s inventor of IE is a progressive enemy of both Israel, Judaism and Christianity who claims there is no such thing as sharia. The most well-known critic of tech literature in the world was, some time ago, salivating over an offer to work for Al Jazeera.
The Empire is rotting, from the head, and at breakneck speed.

This REWRITING of history is among the most dangerous forces in this country. People may not know it, but there was ANOTHER international power that was on the march right after World War 2, and they VOWED to crush us. I won’t name the country, as it would probably get Mr. Robinson accused of a hate crime...for allowing such a non-pc statement to be made on his site.
So yes, it was a scramble after World War 2. There were 2 victors with the ability to project power, and one of the victors vowed to crush the other. That was the context.
Who? You can spell it backwards so it looks less un-pc.
I have indeed come to a point where sometimes Pravda or Russia Today has been more truthful than the NYT, but...
A *NIGERIAN* publication....? Hmm...that’s a stretch.
But what the heck, right?
Uh...I didn’t see anything but the very familiar, “We’d be rolling in dough, were it not for [insert Western entity here]”.
Like AIDS, it’s an African staple.
I'm really good at sensing people from a distance.
Be aware, that one can go so far to the right as to emerge on the left again. Politics is a circle.
Am I not going to read a paper from Nigeria ? Or any other country ?
If it’s a load of cr@p, I use my little brain to figure that out.
I don’t care what the source is if I don’t rely on the source for factual correctness.
Where’s the logic in saying I want to lock myself out of ALL publications from Nigeria.
And accept psmbcs view ONLY ? Or the U.K. view only ?
What makes American news media now what I can only post articles from ?
The UK press is a good source, they are of course very leftwing but they will report on things the US press simply will not cover, and I give them a lot of credit there.
Pravda and russian sources have become very interesting, they actually have gone from a State Run organ to something in between a state- and a true civilian-press, and the tendency to want to slam America makes for occasional utterances of truth about our present dilemma.
Getting information outside 'traditional' American sources is truly the only way to get any clue about events and trends these days. Some of them are foreign, some of them are alternative US. I'm less likely to look at some of the third world news organs as reliable, but input from them won't be rejected out of hand. Just colored with credibility-doubt.
You can hear this theme often on Pacifica Radio, for example KPFA in Berkeley.
I simply posted the article.
Lame.
It was interesting to me that out in the third world where all the globalist Foundations are doing their supposed "good work", those on the receiving may not all be so happy with it.
There was no cited data. None.
And it seemed interesting that this article had information about the Rockefeller Foundation's efforts with worldwide food production that most Americans are completely unaware of.
That Americans are unaware is no distinction; it's a ground of being.
I have no idea about the publication or the author and I did not take it for granted that the article was factually correct, but the content agreed with some other information I have regarding the Rockefeller Foundation not necessarily being as American as apple pie.
They funded a rather notable homosexual pedophile sampling prisoners from the Indiana State Penitentiary to publish "study data" on what constitutes "normal" sexual behavior. That would be Kinsey. Rockefellers founded the Environmental Grantmakers' Association. They've been pivotal in the glow-bill warming racket. Where have you been?
I posted the article - and I suggested that the reader review what the Rockefeller Foundation is all about - to shine some light on the RF and its activities.
Try doing your own research first. I did. When you finally learn something and decide that a source is reputable, then post it.
I know of no publication that I would classify as "reliable".
That's too bad. There are many, but they tend to stick to their knitting and don't attempt to pose as "media" outlets per se.
I'll certainly remove you from the ping list right now.
Thank you.
Naw, umm...it’s GOOD you go outside of US media. It’s great.
I didn’t mean that.
Give the foreign media some credit bro. They report stuff our US Pravda Press simply WILL NOT REPORT.
Dear Laz,
Spiders are like attractive females - always hit on ‘em.
Now that I have assured myself of a new load of bricks (gonna make a BBQ out of ‘em) coming my way from enraged FemiNazi’s, on to the subject of this thread.
IMHO, if the farmer does not buy the GMO seeds, he simply accepted a lower crop yield. When the farmer makes the decision as to whether the GMO seeds are reasonably justifiable in terms of the extra cost being likely to produce sufficient extra yield to justify the increased cost is a decision best left to the individual farmer, not a bureaucrap or, worse by far - a member of some NGO.
Let the individual farmer make the cost/value decisions for his land because it is his crop on which he makes his living.
Isn’t funny how none of these corporations and politicians would never exist without us. We created these monsters and allowed them to CONTROL US. Its time we put the children in the corner
I was acquainted with a number of foreign students in the 80’s. The point you make about foreigners equating the RF policies with that of the American people and her government was certainly true at that time. Some of my acquaintances were charming enough people, but scratch the surface only a little bit, and their hatred for America because of their familiarity with the wrong-headed Rockefeller Foundation work in their countries would come pouring out. The people I was acquainted with could not make the distinction between the American government/people and the RF. Now, years later, I’m not so sure they were entirely wrong.
I found the article interesting for the reasons you stated in your post 8.
