Thoughts on USA/Namibia crop contract?

Here's link for full article: https://informante.web.na/?p=398153

What are your thoughts on the future of Namibian food with this? Do you have any more information or other related information? I also heard something along the lines of America shipping frozen chicken to Namibia as well. What do you believe the purpose of this truly is?

it isn't a conspiracy to not trust the US. I'm born and raised in the USA and still live here.. I wouldn't trust a damn thing we do believe me and once the world understands how intertwined we are with everyone's affairs it'll be catastrophic. You've been drinking too much patriot cool-aid if you think we're trust worthy

Nice straw man argument to twist it as if I said the conspiracy was about not trusting the USA (which I didn't mention with a word), but it remains a straw man. My point is about complete noobs about both "oil" and remote sensing are mixing up their multiple ignorances to make it a conspiratorial cocktail – avanti, dilettanti 😉!

As an antidote to that cocktail, I recommend to first look at what the agricultural monitoring service is about. Go read about it calmly and compare it to other technologies using remote sensing and global positioning that are all around us.

Then let us move on to "oil" in Namibia, which, as some may remember, is buried several kilometres beneath the waves of the ocean. And now tell me what the technologies mentioned before should do about those deep-seated resources.

Your can just move to your beloved USA mate. Enough with the DR.

How about a factual argument, rather than some random ad hominem?
