A real eye-opener
This article about the Resnick pistachio monopoly is a giant eye-opener. You wouldn't think of pistachios as an instrument of WORLD-CHANGING warmongers, but in fact they are.

Intro:

Three years ago, journalist Yasha Levine and filmmaker Rowan Wernham first arrived at the vast pistachio plantation of Stewart and Lynda Resnick in California’s parched Central Valley. There, they saw firsthand how a billionaire power couple had successfully manipulated the state’s political system to privatize its water supply for their own financial benefit.

Today, the Wonderful Company farm owned by the Resnicks soaks up more water than the entire city of Los Angeles. Their business was based on “a heist of epic proportions,” according to Levine, that “will put family farms out of business, and push life in the biggest river estuary on the west coast of America towards mass extinction.”

Central point:

Carter’s embargo on Iran was what gave birth to America’s pistachio business. Historically, pistachios imported from Iran had dominated global markets, including in the US. When America was suddenly cut off from Iran’s pistachio supply after Carter’s economic blockade in the wake of the Iranian hostage crisis, it left a giant hole in the market and created the need for an alternative source of pistachios. At the time, pistachio farming happened on a small scale ... From then on, America’s pistachio industry grew at a crazy pace, with domestic output more than doubling every 5 years. In 2008, forty years after the embargo, America finally surpassed Iran as the world’s dominant producer of pistachios. And the bulk of America’s pistachio trade is controlled by one firm: the Wonderful Company, owned by Beverly Hills billionaires Stewart and Lynda Resnick.

So we're forcing Europe into Russia's circle, and using up California water supplies, and (just today) escalating our trade war with China, for the IMPERATIVE NATIONAL INTEREST of pleasing Sheldon Adelson and Stewart Resnick.

If there are objective historians in the future, they will place this worldwide conflagration in the same wastebin with medieval wars caused by romantic rivalries and jealousies among inbred infantile insane aristocrats. Or the War of Jenkins's Ear.

Two big points not mentioned in the article:

1. The leftist myths about war for oil are precisely false. Most of our wars have no connection to resources at all. Most of our wars are pure psychopathic monstrous hyperevil. When resources are involved, the war is designed to PROTECT A MONOPOLY. We are always trying to ELIMINATE a resource, not GAIN a resource.

2. The leftist myths about Israel are precisely false. American Jews claim to be helping Israel, but most of their work is contrary to the REAL interests and desires of Israel. In this case REAL Israelis love pistachios, and REAL Israelis prefer Persian pistachios to Resnick pistachios. The US blockade of Persia, allegedly to "help Israel", has forced REAL Israelis to smuggle Persian pistachios through Turkey. I guess you'd call it nut-laundering.

Reminder: Any criticism of Soros is censored "because it's anti-Semitic". The REAL Israel has kicked out Soros NGOs because the REAL Israel understands ACCURATELY that Soros is the most murderous genocidal ACTUAL NAZI in the world.

If we paid more attention to the motives and actions of REAL Israelis and less to the bizarre delusions of elite American Jews, we'd be doing the world a huge favor. Israelis are sane sensible mature PRACTICAL people.
