National Security Study Memorandum 200

Various | 06.10.2005 05:27

The news is all about "Avian Flu" a disease which is predicted to depopulate much of the Earth although at the moment it remains rather limited in scope. It is worth recalling that this Avian Flu appeared shortly after scientists dug up the remains of victims of the 1918 Spanish Flu buried in the Arctic to play with the genome. Then it is worth remembering that the Spanish flu did not originate in Spain but in a US military base in Kansas.

Just some things to keep in mind, as the media shouts the word "Pandemic" for the fourth straight year in a row. Depopulation, or the change to inject RFID tags into the population?

"All that is needed is the right Global crisis, and the nations will accept the New World Order" - David Rockefeller

National Security Study Memorandum 200
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

National Security Study Memorandum 200 (NSSM200) was completed on December 10, 1974 by the U.S. National Security Council under the direction of Henry Kissinger. Its full title is National Security Study Memorandum 200: Implications of Worldwide Population Growth for U.S. Security and Overseas Interests. It was adopted as official U.S. policy by President Gerald Ford in November of 1975. It was originally classified, but was later declassified and obtained by researchers in the early 1990s.

The basic thesis of the memorandum was that population growth in the Lesser developed countries (LDCs) was a threat to U.S. national security, because it would tend to speed the development and industrialization of their economies, making them stronger, more self-sufficient, and more apt to consume their own raw materials. These raw materials were considered to be strategically important to the U.S. economy.

13 countries are named in the report as particularly problematic with respect to U.S. security interests: India, Bangladesh, Pakistan, Indonesia, Thailand, the Philippines, Turkey, Nigeria, Egypt, Ethiopia, Mexico, Colombia, and Brazil.

The report advocates the promotion of contraception and other population reduction measures. It also raises the question of whether the U.S. should consider withholding food supplies to states that are deemed too lax in pursuing population control measures. The report advises, "In these sensitive relations, however, it is important in style as well as substance to avoid the appearance of coercion."
