Iran has retaliated by bombing oil infrastructure in the Gulf Arab states. Meanwhile, Ukraine is still bombing Russian oil facilities even though President Trump signed an order a few days ago lifting sanctions on Russian oil in an effort to keep global energy prices from rising too much too fast.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s easy to see now how all of these wars are part of the same global conflict over who gets to control the most energy resources. And energy prices directly affect food prices. Trump\u2019s friends are getting rich through <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/economictimes.indiatimes.com\/markets\/stocks\/news\/2-billion-mystery-bet-who-invested-just-five-minutes-before-trumps-comment-on-us-iran-talks\/articleshow\/129772501.cms\">suspected insider trading<\/a><\/strong> based on the president\u2019s oil market manipulation while the middle class is being systematically gutted and impoverished.<\/p>\n<p>Ukrainian commanders confirmed that they <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/news\/articles\/mass-drone-attack-strikes-across-054821684.html\">struck Russia\u2019s largest oil refinery on the Black Sea<\/a><\/strong> with a massive drone attack on March 23, shutting down production there just when the world needs it most.<\/p>\n<p>OilPrice.com <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/oilprice.com\/Energy\/Oil-Prices\/200-Oil-No-Longer-Crazy-Idea-as-Middle-East-Supply-Collapses.html\">reports <\/a><\/strong>that if these wars continue, market analysts foresee oil prices soaring into the $150 to $200 per barrel range, from $104 per barrel on Tuesday. The outlet writes:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">\u201cA month ago, any analyst suggesting international oil prices could soar all the way to $200 per barrel would have been laughed out of the studio. Now, some are beginning to acknowledge that this is a real possibility, and with good reason.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">\u201cOil and fuel exports from the Middle East stood at 25.13 million barrels daily in February, Reuters <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/markets\/commodities\/irans-200-oil-threat-isnt-that-far-fetched-2026-03-17\/\">reported<\/a> this month, citing data from Kpler. By mid-March, this had plummeted by close to two-thirds, to 9.71 million barrels a day.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">\u201cYet even worse than daily shipments is the situation in production. Everyone in the Middle East is cutting oil production\u2014and those wells take a while to restart. The reason they are cutting is that storage capacity is limited\u2014and some of those \u2018export\u2019 barrels are actually going on tankers for storage rather than shipment to clients. A fifth of global oil, in other words, is severely disrupted, and even if the bombs stop flying tomorrow, it will take a while for things to get back to normal.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This is already affecting food production and it\u2019s about to get a whole lot worse if farmers can\u2019t afford diesel for their tractors and other equipment.<\/p>\n<p>Christian Westbrook, a food supply expert, <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=qus73s2tDog\">reports <\/a><\/strong>that fishermen in Ireland and Thailand are grounding their boats because they can\u2019t afford diesel.<\/p>\n<p>Westbrook, like others including myself, could not see in 2023 and 2024 how it made sense for Bill Gates and a slew of Israeli companies to be investing heavily in lab-grown meat. In fact, in 2024 Israel under PM Benjamin Netanyahu became <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.greenprophet.com\/2024\/01\/israel-is-the-first-country-to-approve-the-sale-of-cultured-meat\/\">the first country in the world to approve the sale of lab-grown cultured meat<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>On Jan. 18, 2024, Karin Kloosterman reported at <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.greenprophet.com\/2024\/01\/israel-is-the-first-country-to-approve-the-sale-of-cultured-meat\/\">Greenprophet.com<\/a><\/strong>:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">In an historic world first, the Israeli Government has decided to allow the sale of cultured meat. There are dozens of companies in Israel working on cultured or lab-grown animal products such as milk, fish, eel, beef and pork. The news is a step in making lab meat a thing of now and not just the future.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">Regulatory permits were issued this year for the production of milk without using cows, and \u2013 today \u2013 meat without using animals.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">\u201cThis is a global breakthrough in the field of alternative protein and important news for food security, environmental protection and concern for animals,\u201d said Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu who formed a team to advance the field of alternative proteins.<\/p>\n<p>Concern for animals? Please. I think Netanyahu had other reasons for making Israel the leader in production of fake-meat.<\/p>\n<p>It didn\u2019t seem feasible or logical in 2024, not when real meat tastes better, is healther, and was cheaper to produce. But Netanyahu, Gates and other globalist technocrats likely knew that an earth-shaking event like World War III was on the near horizon and that skyrocketing energy prices would mean farmers would no longer be able to afford to raise cows, pigs, fish, etc. in sufficient numbers to feed the world.<\/p>\n<p>Westbrook writes:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">\u201cHalf the world\u2019s food comes from land that requires energy-hungry irrigation. Grain drying, cold storage, and refrigerated transport are all getting slammed. Meanwhile, the same technocrats who authored this crisis have poured billions into fake meat, lab-grown seafood, and alternative proteins&#8211;while quietly positioning themselves to control irrigation, drying, and storage through \u2018smart\u2019 digital systems. This is how the takeover of food begins.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Watch below as Westbrook puts it all in perspective and says what we can do about it.<\/p>\n<div align=\"center\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/qus73s2tDog?si=Kq2_PqlHVi9wEHZz\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=qus73s2tDog\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Use this time wisely, dear readers. Now is the time to stock up on food and think about growing some to supplement your food bills in 2026. If nothing else, you might learn a few skills and get better at it when perhaps the situation gets even more dire in 2027 and beyond. One thing is certain: The technocrats are not going to pump the brakes on their wars and food-control schemes.<\/p>\n<p>The globalists\u2019 drive to create manufactured famines goes back decades and includes a treatise on the subject by the late Dr. Henry Kissinger, former U.S. Secretary of State under President Nixon and a consultant to practically every president after that including Trump in his first term.<\/p>\n<p>On December 10, 1974, the U.S. National Security Council under Kissinger completed a classified 200-page study, \u201c<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nssm200.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/NSSM-200.pdf\">National Security Study Memorandum 200: Implications of Worldwide Population Growth for U.S. Security and Overseas Interests<\/a><\/strong>.\u201d The study claimed that population growth in the so-called Lesser Developed Countries was a grave threat to U.S. national security and needed to be culled. Adopted as official policy in November 1975 by President Gerald Ford, NSSM 200 outlined a covert plan to reduce population growth in those countries through birth control, and also, implicitly, war and famine. It was declassified in 1989. Most Americans never paid any attention to it but it\u2019s being implemented now in spades.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">&#8212;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Leo\u2019s Newsletter is a reader-supported publication.
