Last night, Glenn Beck began his "Earth Day" show by noting that "global food prices [have] started rioting worldwide" and that "the World Bank says that global food prices have increased over 83 percent from 2005 till now." He also noted that oil has soared past $115 a barrel and "gas prices have increased 81 percent" since '05. He interviewed Dan Glickman, the former U.S. Secretary of Agriculture, who noted that "global wheat supplies are at their 30-year low, and U.S. wheat supplies are at their 60-year low. Now, I don`t think we`re going to run out of food in this country, but I do think there are going to be severe shortages outside the United States." After discussing these disturbing trends -- and the dangers of overreacting to such trends with left-wing, big government solutions -- he asked if there is any prophetic significance to them. It's all part of a week-long series he and I are doing on geopolitics, Bible prophecy, Epicenter and Dead Heat.
