What starvation looks like


There are no borders when it comes to meeting real humanitarian needs, and making people safe in all countries. When needs aren’t fully met, great leaders must work together to create abundance and calm, regardless of the current state of relations between their countries.


This is a matter of morality and ethics because vast numbers of people are disadvantaged of no fault of their own (and of no fault of their own governments, who have for years hoped for peace with the United States). Innocent people abroad yearn for the opportunity to participate in a growing global economy without seemingly nefarious interference from the U.S. government.


Because of the perception of a "pandemic," all developing nations have struggling economies. No one could have anticipated that more people would experience food shortages this year than in any time in recent memory. Countries everywhere are struggling to meet basic needs.


Sanctions are certainly a peaceful pressure. There is no direct harm from them. However, decision-makers should be aware of the profound challenges they cause. Economic pressure can contribute to starvation. Populations are currently desperate for life saving economic relief that only the United States can provide.


Peace and love between nations therefore represents more than a historic opportunity to create safety and calm within the United States, where diverse groups of American citizens want to fully enjoy themselves with one another. Peace and love between nations - that includes economic relief - is incredibly important for people everywhere. Immigrants to the United States love family and friends in their home countries. They feel that it’s essential for the United States to generously address the needs of their loved ones for the first time.


Generosity towards people in foreign lands, and a World Peace Deal, is consistent with the values of the American people, who want the best for people everywhere. Americans may benefit tremendously from eliminating a century long financial impediment to peace and calm.

According to the United Nations:


"The rise of hunger shows no signs of abating. By the end of 2020, the number of acutely food insecure people could increase to 270 million due to COVID-19, representing an 82 per cent increase compared to the number of acutely food insecure people pre-COVID-19. Urgent and sustained humanitarian action is needed to avoid further deterioration and to prevent a risk of famine in areas already on the brink of starvation.


Nearly 690 million people were undernourished in 2019, up by almost 60 million since 2014. Nearly half of all [lost lives] in children under age five are attributable to undernutrition and, regrettably, stunting and wasting still have strong impacts worldwide. In 2019, 21 per cent of all children under age five (144 million) were stunted and 49.5 million children experienced wasting. The effects of the pandemic will increase child hunger, and an additional 6.7 million children are predicted to be wasted by the end of 2020 due to the pandemic’s impact. The situation continues to be most alarming in Africa: 19 per cent of its population is under-nourished (more than 250 million people), with the highest prevalence of undernourishment among all global regions... Women and girls represent more than 70 per cent of people facing chronic hunger."
