You know the story…
In just a few centuries, the people of Easter Island wiped out their forest, drove their plants and animals
to extinction, and saw their complex society spiral into chaos and cannibalism. Are we about to follow
their lead?
Jared Diamond, 2005

Look at what the end of the analysis concludes:
"It turns out that the Malthusian myth of Easter Island’s demographic and ecological collapse was just a bunch of Rapa Hooey!"
That's right! I remember reading about Easter Island may years ago when I was young and totally dispirited as a result, depressed and unhappy. This is all life has to offer I thought, total social collapse, cannibalism and human extinction. I remember Jared Diamond well, a Jewish author whose speciality was this kind of dispiriting claptrap.
I was given Diamond to read at school and to make presentation on a book of his. I believed him. But later on I was saved, came to see what was happening in the world big time, that there were a few people in the world trying to own everything in the world, to own the whole world itself......
and to prepare the world for such take-over they gave us such as Diamond and his freakish, lying productions
