Global Crisis

The Global Food Crisis

This article is a warning. A global food crisis is likely approaching — driven by the collapse of supply chains feeding the agri-food system, a consequence of the war against Iran and the resulting blockade of the Strait of Hormuz. The prospect has gone largely unnoticed by most political and economic actors. Supply crises, as a rule, are resolved through the Law of Supply and Demand. When supply falls, prices rise; those who can afford to pay grumble but pay, while those who cannot find a cheaper substitute. Or do without. But we are talking about food — and food is indispensable to life.

Ray McGovern: A US Attack On Cuba Could Ignite A Global Crisis

More than six decades after the Cuban Missile Crisis brought the world to the brink of annihilation, former CIA analyst Ray McGovern says Washington may once again be drifting toward a catastrophic confrontation with Cuba. In a sweeping conversation on Consortium News’ CN Live!, McGovern warns that escalating U.S. pressure on Havana — driven by Cold War obsessions, regime-change fantasies, and political opportunism — risks unleashing consequences far beyond the Caribbean. Drawing on his years inside the CIA, McGovern describes a deeply entrenched divide between intelligence analysts and covert operators, arguing that presidents are often manipulated into dangerous interventions based on distorted or withheld intelligence.
