Commissar SFLUFAN Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 Second wave of locusts in east Africa said to be 20 times worse Quote A second wave of desert locusts is threatening east Africa with estimates that it will be 20 times worse then the plague that descended two months ago. The locusts present “an extremely alarming and unprecedented threat” to food security and livelihoods, according to the UN. A swarm of just more than a third of a square mile can eat the same amount of food in one day as 35,000 people. This second invasion from breeding grounds in Somalia includes more young adults which are especially voracious eaters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SilentWorld Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 I guess we don't get locusts here. Can they be controlled with insecticide. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FUNNY YOU SHOULD ASK... Krakatoa Puts on Scary Light Show with Biggest Eruption Since 2018 Quote The famed and feared volcano blew its top Friday night, and it was loud enough that people 100 miles away in Jakarta, Indonesia reported hearing it. A webcam planted on the slope of the volcano captured images of the lava and ash shooting into the sky. Researchers say the eruption sent ash 9 miles (47,000 feet) up, and while the video looks pretty cool ... locals had to be pretty terrified. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thewhyteboar Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 So the Republican cult starts worshipping Trump like a god and we are immediately hit by a plague followed by locusts. Huh. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huh. Combine this with the Earthquake that occurred the other day in Idaho and we’ve already checked off two-thirds of the ‘signs of the end-times’ list per the Book of Revelations.
