No one would have believed that the Russian government would have intentionally starved an estimated 10 million Ukrainian people to death, but the fact is …from 1932-33 they did. During the Holodomor people became so ravenous, some inevitably turned to cannibalism. The Russian government accomplished this mass starvation by seizing control of all food production and forcing everyone to work for collective farms. Farmers and ranchers were forced to give up their land and livestock to the state and were not allowed to consume any of the food they produced; all of it was held in government owned silo’s and terminals. All of it sold for export to other countries and the money used to finance wars.
This was genocide on a massive scale. It was a genocide intended to take land and farming away from the people and convert it all to state (corporate) control. It was estimated that 80% of the Ukrainian population were farmers. As the millions died, other ethnic groups were brought in to replace the Ukrainians. And it all began with the Russian government depleting grain reserves and food supplies and then claiming ownership and control of agriculture.
While our own government has not yet begun withholding food from the general population, the transferring of other ethnic groups into our communities through the promotion of illegal immigration across our southern border and from the dumping of massive numbers of alleged refugees from many mid-eastern countries into communities where the cultural, religious and ethnic back grounds quickly divide the population, is happening. This is an intentional disruption of these communities not for the purpose of diversity, but rather, to end the sense of cultural and national unity. This is nation busting. Its purpose is to destroy any sense of community or national identity and loyalty.
Where is our back up?
Here in the US, the Commodity Credit Corporation (CCC) was charged with maintaining grain reserves and commodity backups. The purpose of the CCC was to maintain a balanced supply of food commodities as a strategic backup in case of emergency and was charged with distributing those back up supplies to the population should they be needed. This purpose has long since disappeared from the CCC mission.
Along with this loss of strategic grain reserves, there is no butter, cheese, dry milk or any other food commodity stockpiled for the American people in the event the predicted food crisis occurs or, if there is in fact another “terrorist” attack. Nearly one third of all corn crops are now diverted to ethanol production and are not grown for food; this while the coming food crisis begins.
In the 1980’s, America’s commodity reserves were depleted and never re-established. In 2008 all of our grain reserves were sold off and never re-established. The CCC, which has no operating personnel, exists on paper only as a conduit for financing and a means of controlling export markets.
It is now a felony to be prepared!
The Patriot Act includes a provision that makes possession of more than one week’s worth of food or even necessary medical supplies a felony should the president declare a national emergency. Does this make sense? In a national emergency wouldn’t you want the population as self sufficient as possible? Wouldn’t you be encouraging them to stockpile and prepare for one of these terrorist attacks they claim are imminent?
Does any one besides me find it odd that while those jackasses in the District of Criminals scream that we are all out here looking for government handouts and are too lazy to take care of our selves, they are simultaneously passing laws making it illegal for us to be prepared or to do anything in the way of maintaining our self sufficiency? Consider the ongoing mocking of so-called “preppers”; people who heeded the government warnings of possible terrorist attacks and began making preparations for that contingency.
Bear in mind that since 2007 and the John Warner Defense Authorization Act, the president may declare a national emergency at any time that he determines there is one….even if he is the only one who thinks there is one. No congressional oversight for six months after such a declaration was simply added to relieve congress of having to challenge the presidents claim or to be held responsible.
What we are witnessing is the remaking of another holodomor, only this time it will be America that will suffer. Stalin used a specific plan of attack as he began his genocide of the Ukraine. It takes little effort to see the same system being implemented here and in other countries, obviously to affect the same result.
1928 Stalin introduces a program of agricultural collectivization that forces peasants/farmers to give up their private land and livestock, and join state owned, factory-like collective farms. Stalin decides that collective farms would not only feed the industrial workers in the cities but would also provide a substantial amount of grain to be sold abroad, with the money used to finance his industrialization plans.
Are any alarms going off here?
In the last ten years most especially, we have seen a concerted effort by congress, our presidents and various corporations that operate as federal agencies, to centralize food production in the hands of the state where access to markets and agricultural production will be divvied up between favored corporations.
The FDA, an agency which represents a massive and imminent danger to the general public, announced that the citizens of the US do NOT have the right to choose what foods they will eat; that is apparently to be determined by the state. Now logically, if we have no right to choose what foods we want to eat, neither can we produce the foods we want to eat and FDA along with the USDA and several other international organizations and federal agencies are working toward eradicating our right to grow our own foods free from government and corporate interference.
The fake food safety bill was passed giving dictatorial powers to agency heads, and setting in motion the enforcement of unconstitutional rules and regulations meant to make independent and family farming and ranching untenable due to burdensome regulations and ever changing rules and massive enforcement operations which are never applied to corporate multi-national producers.
Name one time that USDA/FDA swat teams showed up with the local sheriff, dressed in star wars riot gear, weapons drawn, after some big Ag producer sent out millions of pounds of contaminated hamburger or even peanut butter. But try selling fresh raw milk through your local co-op and see who comes calling.
This system is not intended to secure or make safe our food supply, but is instead the system that will be used to undermine and eradicate our independent agricultural sector converting it to a state controlled and corporately owned enterprise.
Swat team raids are now used to trespass private property, to unlawfully seize private property, to terrorize and harass private citizens on what they thought was their land. No evidence of wrongdoing is needed; only a “belief” that a problem might exist. The intent is to drive independent ranchers and farmers out of business and off their land.
The USDA is again attempting to implement the infamous National Animal Identification System (NAIS) having changed the name of the program to Animal Disease Traceability (ADT) in an effort to establish state owned herds and reducing livestock owners to “stakeholders, managers and/or operators” but NOT the actual owners of the livestock.
From 1929:
A policy of enforcement is applied, using regular troops and secret police. Many Ukrainian peasants/farmers, known for their independence, still refuse to join the collective farms. Stalin decides to “liquidate them as a class” and accuses Ukrainians of “bourgeois nationalism.”
While this Rural Council is said to be focused on strengthening rural economies, one has to wonder what the military role would be in that, or the role of HSD or the FBI for that matter. Of course the focus of this Council is not to strengthen rural communities but rather to coax, push, threaten rural land owners off their land and convert private agriculture into corporately owned and run industrialized farms.
This council has been established to determine if agricultural land owners are making “adequate and beneficial” use of their land. If land mapping and identification of potential resources available in or on your land indicate that the “state” could make more of a profit from the resources available on land you own……you won’t own it anymore. Your land will be taken under eminent domain and even though you will supposedly be offered a fair market price for your land, that offer won’t come until land values in your area have been intentionally reduced via government regulation and interference, to virtually nothing. Either way, you will have no choice. And if you refuse to leave voluntarily? Not a problem! The Pentagon (military) is part of this Council and will be used for enforcement.
Modern collective farms
Today’s collective farms carry the names of multi-national corporations which have steadily bought up massive areas of agricultural acres here in theUSand abroad. Food produced on these farms is not intended for local or even national consumption. All of it is targeted towards the global market where it is sold to the highest bidder. If we can’t pay the price…we won’t eat. And just to make sure you are forced into bargaining on the global market, laws are steadily being put into place to make growing your own food illegal.
- We should not be exporting anything but the surplus beyond what we need and,
- what is not held as emergency commodities.
- We should not be importing anything we can produce ourselves.
- We should never allow foreign corporate producers and governments to under sell our domestic producers and,
- we should never be in the position of being beggars on the destructive global market.
Foreign countries are supplying the bulk of our food and our own government is encouraging and supporting this dumping of massive quantities of low quality, cheap food products while our independent agricultural sector has been intentionally hobbled with everything from free trade agreements to arbitrary and malicious laws, regulations and rules; the stage is set for our own version of holodomor.
Will the real terrorists please stand up?
We have individuals from our own states and local communities who have donned government badges and who have decided to work against us. Those individuals who show up on family farms, ranches, in local whole food stores are not foreign terrorists; they are Americans. Having decided apparently that it is far safer to throw in with the oppressors than to stand up to oppression, these people have terrorized, harassed, intimidated and threatened other American citizens all in the name of global government.
Hundreds of thousands of American citizens collect a paycheck for spying on and terrorizing other Americans. Others spend their time attempting to enforce unlawful rules, regulations and unconstitutional “laws” and appear to take great pleasure in bullying and terrorizing the population.
A line is being drawn in the sand and each of us needs to figure out which side of that line we are on. There is a plan in motion that will harm a great many of us and there are a great many of us who will sell our souls to save ourselves.
The day is coming when each of us will have to determine which side of the line we are on.

Dave,
ppjg is exactly right, and yes it does belong here, it belongs everywhere we can make anyone listen. This is exactly what everyone must understand if we are ever going to get a grasp on our problem.
All corporations are agencies contracted with the mother corp, The United States Government, which is a privately held corporation with its own private money system (FED) and its own private law system made up of BAR attorney. It has nothing to do with the government set up by we the people in the preamble of the Constitution. We all got lazy and ignorant and they pulled a fast one on us.
In turn, it is composite government investment funds that hold most of the stock on Wall Street. It is hard to figure out just who is bailing who out here. When Corp US bails out Wall Street, it is really just shoring up its own positions, and hanging the tab on the people.
Here are some links that explain more about this relationship. They have to do with the governments CAFR, or comprehensive financial reports.

DAVE…”GOVERNMENT DID IT! NOT “CORPORATIONS”.
You don’t seem to get it. uSI became a corporation in 1871 and switched this nation from a De Jure republic to a De Facto corporation (fictitious person). We are now subject to Admiralty administrators (so-called “judges”)
This removed the Constitutional and Bill of Rights protections of common law (Magna Carta) and instituted commercial codes in place of God given rights.
Police, sheriffs, TSA thugs, and all military, Haliberton – Blackwater and IRS corporation agents chartered in Puerto Rico are privateers (interest collectors for the FED corporation).
We are no longer “governed” …we are, rather, chattels of the collateral in the uSI corporate trust inventory. Your birth certificate, with your name spelled out in all capital letters, is the title (pink slip) of your body and productive life forces.
The Vatican (in charge of world religions) in metropolitan Rome, The City of London (in charge of global finance) in metro London and Washington D.C. (in charge of planetary military force) are all sovereign, corporate nations.
It’s like the weeping wife of a just murdered mafia person…the Don who ordered the hit is telling her: “Mrs. Giovani, it’s nothing personal…it’s business…just business!!”
Dave…my friend…it is admirable of you to attempt to defend “government”, but i’m afraid that it will now be necessary for millions to parish as the 46 thousand lobbyists in DC corrupt the entirety of a previously hopeful world.
Save up that food and water for it will become your only chance to survive the time of adjustment. Farewell.

Sorry marcellas your rant holds no water. The first act of the largely Jewish Bolshevik takeover of the Russian Empire and the subsequent unrecognized mass murder, starvation, enslavement and looting of tens of millions of innocent Christians was the establishment in 1913 of the US Federal Reserve by American fronts (Rockefellars, JP Morgan et al) for the European Rothschilds banking dynasty who then used money stolen from the Tsar of Russia to finance this horror. All of this has been painstakingly documented by historians like Eustace Mullens and Jiri Luna but all the while, the perpetrators cry victim, victim, victim while brainwashed dupes like you defend them.
The creation of a central bank is a main tenet of Marxism and the same formula is now being used to take down America. Quite simply, the Tsars refused to allow the Rothschilds scum operate in the Russian Empire and sent their ships in support of Abraham Lincoln when he fought a war to prevent them from taking over in the US.
Why do you suppose the German people had such a fear of Marxism that they supported Hitler, whose crimes pale in comparison with the Rothschilds monsters, in the first place?

On a must pass bill, the three legislators in a tiny committee, quietly removed the language that prohibited the use of taxpayer dollars to fund horse inspections. The action effectively legalized horse slaughter in the US without a debate in the full house and senate, where a straight vote would have failed.
The ad campaign was launched in major theaters running the War Horse film in the legislator’s districts and also reached out to Montana and Wyoming to cover Sen. Baucus and state Rep. Sue Wallis who has become the face of horse slaughter as well as Wallis’ Representative Cynthia Lummis of WY.
Featured in the ad is a remarkable Korean War hero; an equine named Reckless. The ad uses this one remarkable equine and her war time heroism to make the point that horses are our animal partners and not just “livestock”, explains EWA Vice President Vicki Tobin.
Sgt. Reckless hauled supplies to Marines, carried wounded off the battle field, was wounded twice, and performed many of her duties without a handler. Staff Sergeant Reckless was a beloved legend of the Marine Corps. She was promoted to sergeant in 1957 and then to staff sergeant in 1959 by the Commandant of the Marines. She was retired in 1960 to Camp Pendleton and when she died in 1968, she was buried at Camp Pendleton with full military honors.
