Two HUGE intel leads in my email box this morning from way-back contacts that I've had for years, that are actually somewhat connected concepts.
1. File this one under "Now It All Makes Sense". A Missouri farming and ranching contact just got off a conference call wherein he was informed that the federal government is sending out letters to all of the flooded out farmers in the Missouri River flood plain and bottoms notifying them that the Army Corps of Engineers will offer to BUY THEIR LAND.
Intentionally flood massive acreage of highly productive farmground. Destroy people's communities and homes. Catch them while they are desperate and afraid and then swoop in and buy the ground cheap. Those evil sons of bitches.
2. Speaking of evil sons of bitches, George Soros appears to be "investing" in farmground through the same puppet company that he used to get into the grain elevator and fertilizer business. The company is called Ospraie Capital Management and is buying up farmground in a joint venture with Teays River Investments as a partner. Here is that announcement:

Okay. Here's the connection. This Ospraie outfit was a hedge fund specializing in commodities that was started and run by some cocky child who didn't know how to trade bear markets and got his butt kicked into next week in the grain market of 2008. He also lost a fortune trying to trade RARE EARTH METALS. In fact, it was so bad that he had to shut his fund down because he had promised his investors that he would give them all of their investment money back if the fund lost more than 30% in one year. Whoopsie.
But it appears that Soros swooped in and saved the day because this Ospraie is the "co-investor" with Soros that bought the remnants of ConAgra's trading operation and renamed it . . . Gavilon. In the industry, it is widely acknowledged that Ospraie IS Soros. That three-page article citation is here, copy and paste the URL into your address bar:

As you probably remember, Gavilon just recently bought both DeBruce Grain out of Kansas City and the biggest grain elevator company in the Pacific Northwest, thus making Soros (who is the money behind Gavilon through both his own Soros Fund Management AND his de facto control of Ospraie) the third-largest grain company in the U.S. with 280 million bushels of storage capacity, behind only Archer Daniels Midland (542 million bushels storage capacity) and Cargill (344 million bushels storage capacity). That citation is here:

Bottom line: Soros, through Ospraie, is buying up farmground. Please also note that the hotlink citation above is dated June 26, 2009. My contact says this has been going on for two years - and also remember what I told you about farmground prices inflating wildly, especially in Illinois. I have personally confirmed farmground in Illinois selling for $13,000 per acre within the last month, whereas that same kind of ground in Illinois was going for $5500 per acre the day Obama was inaugurated.
Spread the word.

you are still a barking loon.
do you have any concept at all of the size and complexity of the US food chain? imports, exports, major companies in the sourcing and production, local suppliers? do you rally think anyone buying even a couple million acres of land will have any effect at all or be able to control anything?
no, all you need to know is “stalin did it in the ukraine, the sky is falling!!”
you makin me laugh dude. keep it up.
A fool laughing does nothing for us ... the fool laughs because he does not know how ignorant his words are. You’re laughing in a hollow log, poor thing.
i like this one:

From the Bible, Luke 4:23:
And he said unto them, Ye will surely say unto me this proverb, Physician, heal thyself: whatsoever we have heard done in Capernaum, do also here in thy country.
A long, read corroborating the thread topic; S 510 gives Monsanto unlimited power and control over all US seed, food supplements, food and farming.
As you see, this is the truth face of predatory monopoly exterminating competitive companies, products and jobs;The 2009 Food ‘Safety’ Bills Harmonize Agribusiness Practices in Service of Corporate Global Governance
Yep. It can't happen here.

the sky is falling !! Mosanto has UNLIMITED POWER
good time to buy the stock then? might pick up some for my IRA.
not often you get to invest in a company with unlimited power.
The Puppet Master strikes again, and this time he’s going after the food supply.
I’ll bite. what is the guy doing?
The environmental regulations, together with the prospect of paying for a new $3 million school for a drastically-declining school-age population, has put one of my brothers out of farming and is threatening to put the other brother out as well. That’s in northeast Nebraska.
You are not out of your mind and an entity or oligarchy could just control half or a quarter of the food in the world and cull the population on a grand scale.
Sinclair Lewis ~ When facism comes to America it will be wrapped in the flag and carrying a cross.
Lewis' commentary preceded Orwell's... I keep thinking about him and how prophetic he was. We strain to hear the voices of truth and they are so few...Bachmann, Palin, Herman Cain as they are drown out by other forces with sinister motives. Even on the times that Ron Paul and Glen Beck make sense, we are told they are kooks. It's topsey-turvey. We no longer have a press that will stand for something of value. We're pretty much on our own out here. Clinging to our guns and bibles.
Sinclair Lewis makes the point again and again: *The problem is that Americans are arrogant and oblivious, and so saying they have freedom is enough that they don't believe tyranny can happen in their country, even as it is going on right in front of their eyes.*
'All that's really left of the old America are the flags and patriotic ditties, which for many is more than enough because they have others to blame. The blame falls on the "it can't happen here" crowd, those who have yet to realize that being American doesn't change your human nature.
In Windrip's most formidable task, convincing Americans to renounce bedrock democratic principles, was already accomplished well before he took power. The United States was ripe for a Fascist takeover, it was just waiting for its moment. Through a combination of influences-his easy bearing chief among them (along with massive cash donations from Big Business, spineless disorganization in the liberal opposition, a stuffy aloof opponent, and support from religious fanatics who felt like they've been unfairly marginalized)-he wins the presidential election (sound familiar?).
Once in, he appoints his close personal friends and political advisers to high-level positions, stocks the Supreme Court with 'surprisingly unknown lawyers' who called him by his first name, takes away most of the power of Congress under the guise of national security, allows Big Business to dictate economic policy, consolidates the media to a few rich corrupt owners, and fills newspapers with syndicated gossip from Hollywood to keep everyone distracted.
Newspapermen worry that America is moving backward to a time when anti-German politicians renamed sauerkraut "Liberty Cabbage" and "hick legislators"...set up shop as scientific experts and made the world laugh itself sick by forbidding the teaching of true science while silencing real scientists,'' but newspaper readers, wary of excessive negativity, stop paying attention, even when journalists who don't tow the line start disappearing.
Given the nature of "powerful and secret enemies" of America, who are always hiding infiltrated in your neighborhood, and always on the verge of "planning their last charge" to take away our freedom, always hiding around the next corner-an indefinite state of crisis is declared, with freedom tossed aside "until the threat passes."
The President assures this is for America's own safety, and as soon as the threat is over, the freedoms will come back.
Sure, some say these methods are extreme, but enemies are around everywhere, and since everyone is permanently in danger, and plain folks are tired of wishy-washy leaders, and feel the president's decisiveness is good leadership in a time of emergency-not a Fascist takeover.

Be alert. Stay safe. Stay armed. It Can't Happen Here.
