Exacerbate..

 


The United Nations Security Council convenes in New York on Thursday, officials from the U.S. and other countries plan to push Russia to stop using food as a “weapon,” Secretary of State Antony Blinken said.

Russia announced last month that it would end its participation in a deal that had allowed ships carrying millions of tons of Ukrainian grain to exit through the Black Sea.

Biden administration officials had previously said that the exit would “will exacerbate food scarcity and harm millions of vulnerable people around the world.”

Earlier with President Biden's sanctions

President Joe Biden said that the world will experience food shortages.
“‘It’s going to be real,‘ Biden said at a news conference in Brussels. ‘The price of the sanctions is not just imposed upon Russia. It’s imposed upon an awful lot of countries as well, including European countries and our country as well.'”

War..


Thousands of Marines backed by advanced U.S. fighter jets and warships are slowly building up a presence in the Persian Gulf.
 It’s a sign that while America’s wars in the region may be finished, its conflict with Iran over its advancing nuclear program continues to worsen, with no solutions in sight.
The dispatch of the troop-and-aircraft-carrying USS Bataan to the Gulf, alongside stealth F-35 fighters and other warplanes, comes as America wants to focus on China and Russia.
But Washington is seeing once again that while it’s easy to get into the Middle East militarily, it’s difficult to ever get fully out.
 President Kennedy speech on June 10, 1963.   
The United States, as the world knows, will never start a war. We do not want a war. We do not now expect a war. This generation of Americans has already had enough--more than enough--of war and hate and oppression. But we shall also do our part to build a world of peace where the weak are safe and the strong are just. We are not helpless before that task or hopeless of its success. Confident and unafraid, we labor on--not toward a strategy of annihilation but toward a strategy of peace. 

Rice..

 

There is plenty of rice available for Americans, said the U.S. rice industry in sharply criticizing India, the world’s largest exporter, for cutting off three-quarters of its overseas shipments. 

“This is another example of India playing games with global food security,” said Bobby Hanks, a Louisiana rice miller and a USA Rice Federation official.

India’s restrictions on exports, announced two weeks ago, were viewed “as a cynical ploy to strengthen their domestic market” while jeopardizing food supplies in countries that rely on Indian rice imports, said the USA Rice Federation, a trade group.  

Earlier, President Biden said that a food shortage is "gonna be real" following the sanctions that were placed on Russia by the U.S. government as a result of Russian invasion into Ukraine.

"With regard to food shortage, yes we did talk about food shortages, and it's gonna be real," Biden said during a press conference at a NATO summit in Brussels, Belgium, following a meeting with other world leaders.

Peace..

 

What kind of peace do I mean? What kind of peace do we seek? Not a Pax Americana enforced on the world by American weapons of war. 

Not the peace of the grave or the security of the slave. 

I am talking about genuine peace, the kind of peace that makes life on earth worth living, the kind that enables men and nations to grow and to hope and to build a better life for their children--not merely peace for Americans but peace for all men and women--not merely peace in our time but peace for all time.  Just a thought.

Decay..

 

Saw Off..

 

Priority..

 

Are we serious about changing our ways to reduce the Climate change? Is it our priority?

Let us put all the cards on the table. What the local government doing, Our military doing [ for reasons] and what the people are doing. may be we can do something beneficially.

Howdy..

Indict..

 

In 1985, Sol Wachtler, then the chief justice of New York's Supreme Court said, “Any good prosecutor can get a grand jury to indict a ham sandwich.” If anything, in the 30 years since he uttered those very accurate words, the situation has gotten worse, not better.  Just a thought.
