Just a few months ago, these two northern Africa nations were considered to be very stable, very peaceful and without any major problems. But now protesters are openly squaring off with police in the streets. Many of the protesters are throwing "fire bombs" or are shooting fireworks at the authorities, and the police are responding with a tremendous amount of violence themselves. In Algeria, several protesters have been killed by police and several others have actually set themselves on fire to protest the economic conditions. In Tunisia, more than 100 people have been killed and the president of that country actually had to flee for his life. But on a global scale, food shortages have not even gotten that bad yet. Yes, food prices are starting to go up and food supplies are a little bit tighter right now, but much worse times than these are coming. So what in the world are the cities of the world going to look like when we have a very serious food shortage?
Just as we saw during the food riots of 2008, when people get to the point where they can't even feed themselves anymore, they tend to lose it. In the video posted below, you can really feel the desperation of these young Algerians as they riot in the streets....
This next video is of the food riots in Tunisia. You will not want to let any young children watch this video. In fact, if watching police beat and smash protesters laying on the ground upsets you, then you might not want to watch this video either. The massive food riots that have erupted in Tunisia have left many city streets looking like war zones and at this point it is being reported that the violence has left over 100 people dead. The president of Tunisia has left the country because of the rioting, and an interim president has been sworn in. It is hoped that this will help restore order. This video is absolutely stunning....

I know these people need help but I'm hoping another nation steps up rather than the US. We have enough hungry people here to help. Charity starts at home.
Mmmmm another muslim nation showing their true colors.
Sed em some money obamie , that'll make it better.
many people are predicting we will have near empty grocery store shelves here at some point this year.
i hope people will heed the warning. it really can happen here.
you had better start stock piling your own food storage. Water can be taken from the ground but food will be very difficult to come by should things deteriorate to this level. Also. I don't think American citizens would respond so kindly if the government was firing at them. If that happened here and americans were to pick up arms the government wouldn't stand a chance.
Remember the five pillars.
Food
Water
medical
security
communication
Get these things up and running now before you need them. Get your friends and family involved. They will be hungry too if this should happen here.
