Gravitas Plus: How countries weaponise food to swing wars

#GravitasPlus| Since time immemorial, food has been used as a weapon of war. Enemies have tried to starve each other.
The Romans did it, so did the Germans, and the Americans.
Colonial Britain weaponised food in India.
Is Russia using the same template?

Today I was treated to a simple dinner native to Rajasthan! As we ate Del Bati Churma , Gunde Ki Sabzi and Ghevar for dessert, we were watching this most serious report on how food is used as a weapon of war. The food that has been wasted is abhorrent. Nothing is as important as governments providing food and pure drinking water to all its citizens. We pray here that this insanity stops. Palki, you hit the nail on the head. Both sides need to stop the blame game and end this war. They need to see that much of the world's food security depends upon it. Otherwise, famine will be the end result. And how will we be judged? I believe that we are our brother's keeper and in all the religions of world: Hinduism, Christianity, Islam, Buddhism, Judaism, etc. this is so. Hope everyone has a good start to their week.

So when a minuscule portion of wheat has grass seeds they whined, "Oh, the evil Americans are sending us weed seeds." People of USA eat corn and also feed corn to pigs, so these haters go out and tell the Muslim Indians , "Oh, the Americans sent you pig food!" Knowing that would upset Muslims since pigs are Haram.

Food security. Energy security. Water security. In my opinion, it is the duty of each government to ensure these for its people, either through self-sufficiency, storage or through diversified trade with friendly nations. If a country is weak and lacking in these, it puts its people at the mercy of external politics. If a country is powerful and lacking in these, it may one day resort to atrocities to secure the means.

[@WR-NC-ASPL]

Why Don’t Countries Declare War Anymore?.. the decline in formal declarations of war is a worldwide phenomenon. .. the reason states are no longer inclined to declare war is the proliferation of laws governing the conduct of armed conflict... the increased number of codified laws raises the compliance costs of formally acknowledging that states are at war when they use military force... Both the domestic and international explanations point in a common direction: it is more costly to declare war than it is to avoid doing so.. the proliferation of codified jus in bello, the law of war governing belligerent conduct, has created disincentives for states to issue formal declarations of war. The increasing number of codified international laws that govern belligerent conduct during warfare has made complying with the laws of war extremely costly. One way for states to limit these costs is to avoid admitting they are in a formal state of war by refraining from declaring war.. At this point, declaring war is worse than irrelevant-it’s basically all downside and no upside. Even for powerful countries, international organizations like the UN can make it a pain in the ass to break the rules. This is especially true lately: in 1898 there were three codified laws of war; by 1998 there were 33. Certain strategies and weapons aren’t allowed, and the military must be trained to exacting specifications. Lack of compliance means the possibility of being tried for war crimes... T

[@brandy2378]

@@WR-NC-ASPL Obviously you know more about this than me so forgive me if my questions sound silly. I guess I am wondering who exactly would enforce a law of war? Is it all sanctions and such things or is there other punishments? Also if there is a conflict like the one between russia and ukraine but the leader (Putin) does not declare war, do the laws of war still apply? For instance, I hear people say 'Putin committed war crimes' but who is able to punish Putin? I cannot think of anyone who is willing and capable of holding Putin accountable for anything.

Unlike Egypt, Nigeria has no excuse not to be self-sufficient in basic food production.

[@pastorkayodeadegalu]

Its embarrassing as a Nigerian to hear that we are facing starvation. That's not close to the truth in any way. Russia Ukraine war isn't responsible for any food issues in this country. We actually have no shortage though.

Food inflation and food shortages are linked, but they are not the same thing. The real problem will become apparent when the global food markets simply cannot support the existing world population at any price. Short version is that serious famine is coming soon to parts of the world.

Russia never weaponized food. Rather Russia, which produces far more wheat than Ukraine, has been hampered by Western sanctions. The far more important part of the agreement was that the West walked back sanctions of Russian wheat and fertilizer.
