In 1798, Thomas Malthus, an unknown British priest, became famous overnight because he proposed the "Principle of Population", which was highly praised.He was a professor of political economy at Hallibury East India College of the British East India Company.His thesis itself is a scientific fraud, plagiarizing a lot of content from a Venetian's criticism of the theory of positive population of American Benjamin Franklin. In 1774, the Venetian's attack on Franklin's theory was recorded by Gianmaria Ortes.A rewritten version of Malthus's Otters "theory" was concocted in the guise of mathematical rationality, which he called the "law of geometric progression." The "law of geometric progression" holds that the human population always expands geometrically, but arithmetically speaking, the survival information is limited, or increases linearly.The flaw in Malthus's argument is that, since 1798, the vigorous development of human civilization, technology, and agricultural productivity proves irrefutably that Malthus willfully ignored the contribution of scientific and technological progress to total food production, labor productivity, and other aspects.

By the mid-1970s, the new propaganda campaign of Anglo-American institutions had achieved obvious results, as evidenced by the U.S. government’s public boast at press conferences that they were loyal “Neo-Malthusians”.Only a decade or so ago they were making fun of the Massusists after dinner.But nowhere in the United States has pandered more frantically to British Malthusian economics than Kissinger's National Security Council. On April 24, 1974, in the middle of the oil crisis, White House National Security Adviser Henry Kissinger issued National Security Council Study Memorandum No. 200 (NSSM 200) on "Implications of World Population Growth for U.S. Security and Overseas Interests." ".The memo was forwarded to all cabinet secretaries, members of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, as well as the CIA and other key agencies. On October 16, 1975, at Kissinger's urging, President Gerald Ford issued a memorandum on "Strengthening American Leadership on World Population Issues," which was based on NSSM200.For the first time in U.S. history, this document made Malthusianism an important part of U.S. security policy.Even more ironically, it was initiated by a German-born Jew.Even under the Nazis, German government officials were wary of giving such content official support.

NSSM200 claims that population growth poses a "threat" to US national security in certain developing countries, which often possess strategic resources that are important to the US economy.The research memo warns that countries with significant strategic resources will try to seek higher prices and better terms in trade with the United States, pressured by domestic population growth.In the content of the memo, 13 countries were listed as "strategic targets" for U.S. population control efforts.This list drawn up in 1974 is indicative.There is no doubt that, like other major decisions made by Kissinger, these target countries were selected after close consultation with the British Foreign Office.

Kissinger clearly stated in the memorandum: "Compared with the direct investment in additional projects such as irrigation, power stations and factories to increase production capacity, the cost of population control is much less." Explaining is no different.By the mid-1970s, the U.S. government, which had made a secret policy manifesto, had pursued an agenda that would not only lead to the collapse of the U.S. economy, but endless famine, misery, and needless death in the vast developing world .The 13 countries targeted by Kissinger's research memo are: Brazil, Pakistan, India, Bangladesh, Egypt, Nigeria, Mexico, Indonesia, Philippines, Thailand, Turkey, Ethiopia, and Colombia.
