Bill Gates' Influence in Obama Administration and Africa Increases Even Further

Gates Foundation logo



Summary: The Gates Foundation, a heavyweight vehicle for investments and influence, has top employee put in the US government (for "International Development") while the Foundation increases influence over African farming

MICROSOFT already has a lot of power in the United States government. This includes Bill Gates, who is meeting in isolation with President Obama. One of Gates' guys is now becoming the head the US Agency for International Development:



The United States Senate has approved the nomination of Rajiv Shah to head the US Agency for International Development (USAID), making him the highest ranking Indian American in the Obama administration.

[...]

Shah, a medical doctor, currently serves as chief scientist for the US Department of Agriculture and previously worked as director for agricultural development at the foundation headed by Microsoft founder and philanthropist Bill Gates and his wife.

[...]

Prior to his work at the Gates foundation, Shah worked on health care policy for the 2000 presidential campaign of former vice president Al Gore.


"International Development" sounds like a good post from which to promote colonisation. Regarding the above, says GatesKeppers, "The wunderkind Clinton(s)/Gore/Gates nominee Raj Shah takes on an impossible job. Watch for Gates Foundation influence to increase ..."

The Gates Foundation has just pumped some millions of dollar for more influence in African agriculture:

The foundation is working to strengthen the entire agricultural value chain—from seeds and soil to farm management and market access—so that progress against hunger and poverty is sustainable over the long term.


So Gates and Monsanto will have more power to fight those so-called "environmentalists" whom they mock, thus controlling the world's food/agriculture. More information about this can be found in the links below.
