Wall Street, BP, bio-ethanol and the death of millions
Getting used to life without food
F. William Engdahl
The record rise in grain and food prices in recent years is not a mere Wall Street profit gimmick, although obscene profits are being made. Rather, it is apparently an integral part of a long-term strategy whose roots go back to the years just after World War Two when Nelson Rockefeller and his brothers tried to organize the global food chain along the same monopoly model they had used for world oil. Food would henceforth become just another commodity like oil or tin or silver whose scarcity and price could ultimately be controlled by a small group of powerful trading insiders. In short, the use of farmland worldwide for bio-ethanol and other biofuels - burning the food product rather than using it for human or animal feed - is being treated in Washington, the EU, Brazil and other major centers as a major new growth industry. The impact on human beings, however, is quite the opposite. It is rapidly becoming a death industry, death of million s of innocent human beings unable to afford adequate nourishment for themselves or their families.
