Why Did George Bush Buy Nearly 300,000 acres in Paraguay?

The Guarani Aquifer in South America is a huge underground reservoir that lies under Paraguay, Uruguay, Argentina and Brazil, covering an area of land the size of Texas and California combined. The aquifer contains enough fresh water to sustain the world’s population for 200 years, and as water shortages affect us all in the future, the Guarani Aquifer could be a lifeline for millions. But increased commercial interest in the aquifer’s water, and political bickering between the four countries that share it, is threatening this huge resource.

Significantly, much of the Guarani Aquifer is situated beneath the Plate River Basin, the widest in the world, and the mouth of the Paraná and Uruguay rivers, where it forms part of a freshwater feedback system. The Plate River Basin has a surface area of 3.2 million square kilometers and is classified as the second largest hydrographic basin in the world.

Jenna Welch Bush Hager, twin sister to Barbara Pierce Bush, consolidated her land purchases during a curious 10-day trip to Paraguay. She traveled in an official capacity as a UNICEF ambassador, with an escort of 10 U.S. bodyguards, on the pretext of visiting social projects.

According to Russian intelligence analysts, during her stay Jenna met with Nicanor Duarte, then president of Paraguay, and the controversial U.S. Ambassador James Cason, who finalized the land purchases on the Bush family’s behalf. But then, Jenna’s profile — author, editor of Southern Living magazine, and correspondent for NBC News (owned by General Electric, a pillar of the military-industrial complex) — is not exactly at odds with her extracurricular land registration activities.
