Migrant problem in Panama? psst it is also the fertilizer (and the US Navy)

 

Michael Yon discusses the Darien gap in Panama where the illegal immigrants enter a trail to go to enter the USA illegally.

But there is more about this: Notice he mentions the fertilizer and therefore food prices are affected by the drought that is making it hard to go through the Panama canal.

And all these immigrants are destablizing Colombia and Central America.

No one is talking about who is funding this migration: The drug cartels are benefitting of course by running people smuggling, but now the deluge is getting worse, and many of these countries along the pipeline are being destablized by the deluge... Venezuela's leftist government led to a huge influx of refugees into Colombia and Brazil and now those two countries voted in marxist governments who think nothing of throwing out these refugees to head north.

and of coures, the so called drought is slowing the transit of ships going through the Panama canal (which is now essentially run by a Chinese company) slower than normal.

this has implications not just of the supply chain being slowed down, but a major threat to freedom of the seas because it could block the US Navy and US shipping from going through the Panama canal.

.............,

and the global food problem is one of the big reasons that people want to migrate.

But a lot of the fertilizer/food problem is artificial.] there is green pressure against fracking, so the US no longer is a major exporter of NPG thanks to Joe Biden's green policies. The man made war in the Ukraine is making things worse of course. And there is international pressure to "transition"fertilizer use to less polluting ways to fertilize the soil, never mind that this will cut the ability to grow food.

oh well. 

Too complicated for me.

But none of this seems to be mentioned in the US MSM, so the complicated solutions are not going to be discussed.

Indeed, until Texas startes bussing the migrants to northern cities the entire deluge of refugees was ignored.

and as I noted in a previous report on the Rohingye, the problem is world wide: And often has more to do with corruption and politics than with hunger.
