The United Nations food agency said Thursday that it is running out of money which could result in 13 million in the country of 30 million starving to death.
David Beasley, the head of the agency, pinned blame on the continuing conflict and fundraising efforts that did not meet the demand. The agency has faced an increase in demand due to the COVID-19 outbreak, which the Trends Journal has forecast. (See “COVID WAR AND CIVIL WARS: KILLING MORE THAN THE VIRUS,” “POLITICIANS CAUSE WORLDWIDE HUNGER CRISIS” and “GLOBAL HUNGER FROM COVID WAR WILL KILL MILLIONS MORE THAN THE VIRUS.”)
Beasley was prophetic in April 2020 when he warned that the economic shutdown “could soon double hunger, causing famines of biblical proportions around the world.” He now says 285 million people in the world face the threat of starving to death, The Associated Press reported. He said his agency needs an additional $9 billion to meet the need.
“We’ve got twice the number of people struggling around the world now,” Beasley said. “So, what am I gonna do for the children in Yemen? Steal it from the children in Ethiopia, or Afghanistan, or Nigeria or in Syria? That’s not right,” he added.
He told the outlet that he cut the rations in half for eight million Yemenis and “we may be cutting those down to zero.”
“What do you think will happen? People will die. It will be catastrophic,” he said.
The Trends Journal has reported extensively on the war in Yemen. (See “U.S. FIGHTING YEMEN WAR,” “U.S. RAMPING UP MIDDLE EAST WARS,” “SAUDI-LED YEMEN SLAUGHTER ESCALATES” and “MURDEROUS YEMEN WAR: MILLIONS IN PERIL. WHO CARES?”)
In 2014, the Houthis, who were ruling large sections of the country for over 1,000 years, overthrew the unelected president put into place by the Saudis and Americans to replace Ali Abdullah Saleh.
In 2015, Saudi Arabia initiated warfare against the Houthis. Announced by the Saudi Ambassador to the United States in a telecast from Washington D.C., the Yemen war—supported by the Obama administration, Trump administration, and Biden administration (“OBAMA 2.0”), which together sold Saudi Arabia billions of dollars of munitions—has destroyed Yemen’s economy and infrastructure.
Brett McGurk, the White House coordinator for the Middle East, said in January that the U.S. has done all it can for peace in Yemen and blamed the Houthis for continuing the crisis, according to Foreign Policy—namely their decision to launch ballistic missiles that hit the United Arab Emirates. (See “U.S. FIGHTING YEMEN WAR.”) January was one of the bloodiest months in the conflict.
Last month, President Biden vowed continued support to Saudi King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud during a phone conversation.
“The president underscored the U.S. commitment to support Saudi Arabia in the defense of its people and territory from these attacks and full support for UN-led efforts to end the war in Yemen,” the White House said in a statement at the time.
TREND FORECAST: The Trends Journal has reported extensively on the humanitarian crisis in Yemen that is playing out due to Saudi Arabia’s attack on the nation which was launched from Washington, D.C. in March of 2015 with the support of Nobel Peace Prize winner, Barack Obama.
We maintain our forecast that the Saudi/U.S. alliance will not defeat the Houthis, and the war will rage on, killing tens of thousands of innocent people while inflicting devastating and deadly hardship across the nation.
The war will continue to be ignored by the mainstream media and the vast majority of the world will be ignorant to the human suffering the United States and Saudi Arabia have inflicted upon the nation.
TREND FORECAST: As we have forecast when the COVID War was launched in 2020, the move to shut down the global economy in order to deal with the virus would create a global famine on a scale never seen before.
Nothing points to the incompetent and immoral actions of political leaders and their health “experts” more than this issue of mass starvation, a direct result of the unprecedented global shutdown.
While billions of dollars are easily raised to finance the rush to a vaccine—which dramatically falls short of the 96 percent efficacy rate it was sold as having—and while drones flew around in nations searching for citizens not social distancing and police threaten fines and jail time for those not wearing masks… the UN World Food Program has to beg for money to keep hundreds of millions of people from starving.
And, again, virtually nothing about this global tragedy is mentioned in the mainstream news.
TREND FORECAST: One of our 2020 Top Trends was “NEW WORLD DISORDER.” We had forecast that the riots, demonstrations, and uprisings spreading across the globe (India, Hong Kong, Lebanon, South Africa, France, Chile, Bolivia, Algeria, etc.) in protest of lack of basic living standards, government corruption, crime, and violence would escalate in 2020.
Governments used the COVID War, however, to prohibit protestors from gathering en masse and taking to the streets. (See “CANADIAN CIVIL LIBERTIES ASSOCIATION SUES TRUDEAU GOV’T.”)
We have warned that after long lockdowns and going deeper in debt, they would again rebel.
Now, in addition to the current crisis in food shortages, the WFP acknowledges what we had forecast: the unprecedented global shutdown will have ancillary effects such as escalating social tensions, increased migration, and political conflicts, making the situation even more dire.
