  Speaker 1: My name is Jim. This is Jim Wilfare the Battle
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: of Ideas Modern I'm strong. Thank you for joining me
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: in the trenches.
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: It was Winston Churchill who actually said, in time of war,
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: truth is so precious that it needs a bodyguard of
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: lies to protect it. And that's the world we live
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: in today. You're in the midst of war and each
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: government is always going to say they're winning, and that's
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: just the way it is.
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: That's an interesting comment, though, I mean, is anybody winning.
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: Not really, It's I you know, as I've said before,
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: I was part of the vetting process and I was
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: be sent in to meet people who wanted to run
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: for president to explain how the world economy really worked.
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: Because I was one of the first head international hedge
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: fund managers, so I had to deal with internationally. But
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: it was a vetting process and I'd get back and
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: they would say, do you think he's smart enough to
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: handle it? And then in ninety nine I was asked
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: to go meet with Bush Junior and they said, oh,
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: this one's different. He's really stupid. And I said, excuse me,
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: because it was one hundred and eighty degrees opposite of
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: what we were doing, And I asked, why would you
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: make somebody stupid president, and they said, he's got the name,
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: so we can win. So they picked the cabinet. They
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: picked Dick Cheney, et cetera. All right, and that's where
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: I draw the line. And ever since then, if you
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: look at world leaders, they're not competent. They don't want
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: somebody who's going to tell them not to do something. It's,
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: you know, what we called a deep state. And people think, oh,
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: Republican versus Democrat. They move in both parties. And I
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: mean the last actual war that we had it was
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: World War Two. Everything after that has been orchestrated by
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: these neocons, and they're all like police actions or whatever.
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: And as long as they can claim some immediate threat,
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: they don't have to go to Congress. So you can
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: look on YouTube. You'll see Robert McNamara, who was a
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: neocon and took us into Vietnam. Before he died, he
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: did a video and he apologized. He said that they
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: thought Russia was involved, was standing behind Vietnam. He says,
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: we were wrong. It was just a civil war. They
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: have lost every single war since. And you can look
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: at Tony Blair's apology for Iraq. He said the same thing.
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: You know, all the intelligence was wrong, there was no
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: weapons of mass destruction. They always lie about everything. And
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: then he said, we had no idea that removing Saddam
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: would turn into a sectarian war isis and stuff like that.
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: This is the problem these people. And look, I've been
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: to dinner with some of them. My view is they
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: do not think beyond the end of their nose. It's like, well,
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: we just got to take out Saddam, Okay, do they
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: have no plan for afterwards? You're seeing this playing out
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: in Iran. It's the same script. They use all weapons, uh,
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: you know, going to threaten the world. It's always the
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: same thing. They do that to get around Congress. And
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: it's strategic. Uh. And so because the Constitution says only
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: Congress can declare a war. So as long as it's
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: not a war, it's a police action or something or
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: an eminent threat, then they don't have to go to Congress.
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: When they circumvent the entire constitution.
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: I suppose. My question is at what point does this
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: solways say, stop being a slow blead and become a
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: full on collapse.
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: Well, probably the the shock is going to come mainly
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: from the Iran War. There's a I would call it
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: the illusion of wealth that people think that the Middle
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: East is just rich, but they're actually in a serious
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: debt crisis. Oil had gone down to six hours and
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: fifty cents during COVID, so they borrowed extensively, but they
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: did not pay back all right, So now they're like
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: the rest of the Western you know, Japan, United States, Europe,
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: et cetera. These people have been borrowing money since World
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: War Two with no intention of paying anything back. And
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: what I've warned about is that it's starting to come
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: to a head that since you don't pay off the
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: debt and you're constantly rolling it becomes like a Ponzi scheme,
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: and eventually the cost of rolling it, you know, crowds
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: out everything else. So you're seeing the interest expenditures in
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: the United States will exceed military expenditures. So it's it's
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: not a conspiracy theory, it's just masss suppose that, I mean,
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: they cannot pay off the debts, and you know, typically
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: you end up in a situation like there was what
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: created really the Great Depression, US stock market crash. I mean,
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: it's you can crash the stock market at best, that
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: will give you a recession, all right. It's the debt market,
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: which is the bulk of where money is actually invested,
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: pension funds, et cetera.
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: Rights wis.
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: When you crack the debt market, that's when you get
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: the real crisis. And in nineteen thirty one, and I
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: would recommend reading Herbert Hoover's memoirs for nineteen thirty one.
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: It's free online, and he talks about how capital acted
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: like a loose cannon on the deck of a ship
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: in the middle of a hurricane, all right, shooting off
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: in every which direction so fast they couldn't find out
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: where it was going next. All of Europe basically defaulted
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: on his debt permanently, South America, most of Asia. You
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: can buy a lot of their bonds. They look very
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: pretty if you want to frame them up off of eBay.
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: War is the way they get out of it, because
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: then the government changes, Oh, we're not going to pay
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: the debts of the last corrupt government, all right, even
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: the United States and then the Constitution it said that
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: they would honor the debts of the Continental Congress. They
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: never did, all right. That defaulted on that too, So
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: that it's standard. War goes hand in hand with default,
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: and probably the catalyst that may shock everybody is people
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: don't understand what I Ran is really doing. Okay, attacking
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: ships in the golf is one thing. They were attacking,
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: also refineries. If you UAE just asked the United States
• 9:52
  Speaker 2: for a swap line, okay, and this is the problem
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: that you're cutting off their ability to sell oil, then
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: they can't make their debt payments. Okay. So you have
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: a sovereign debt crisis in the Middle East that I
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: would say Iran understands and is deliberately trying to instigate.
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: I mean, that's their neutron bomb, so to speak, you know,
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: and Iraq is probably in the worst position. They took
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: loans from China and signed contracts. If they default, China
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: takes over their oil and they've China's been doing that
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: in Africa, many different places. That's their strategy, and they've
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: done it in Iraq. So the sovereign debt crisis is
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: probably going to heat up a lot more starting in
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: twenty seven, and you're going to see country's default using
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: war as an excuse. This is why the EU needs
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: war with Russia. They can't pay their debts, and eventually
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: what will happen is everything's interlaced in Europe. Pension funds
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: in most states must have government debt, so you go
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: into default. People are losing their pensions. People don't realize
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: how all interconnected this really is, and they will be
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: picking up their pitchforks and storming the parliaments all right
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: in Europe. So this is why NATO and the EU
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: they're standing behind Ukraine. Ah, they need the excuse to
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: go into war with Russia.
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: So Europe is wanting a world war.
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: Look, they think maybe the third time is a charm.
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: I can tell you I've been saying on various podcasts
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: for the last couple of years. My sources from behind
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: the scenes have been saying that particularly mcrome, who they
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: call the Batite Napoleon, has been keeping his eye on Russia,
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: pushing to descending troops in Ukraine, et cetera, offering to
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: replace the United States with a nuclear umbrella to protect
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: your rope. Why Russia has is the richest country in
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: the world from a natural resource perspective. They have about
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: seventy five trillion dollars in natural resources still in the ground.
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: So McCrone thinks that they can conquer Russia using Ukraine
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: to weaken it, get all the Russian assets, and then
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: Europe will rise again from the ashes and lead the world.
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: Seventy five trillion will be twice the size of the
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: US national debt, and the US will be this fledgling
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: colony that it should have remained. This is the attitude.
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: This is also why they call him the petit Napoleon. Now,
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: people initially were saying, oh, that's a conspiracy theory. Well,
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: earlier this year NATO came out, the head of NATO,
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: and what did the roots say. If you think you
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: can conquer Russia without the United States, you're dreaming. So
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: he has come out publicly and confirm what I've been
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: hearing for the last two years.
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: So you are suggesting that Europe's implosion will be fairy
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: sudden rather than drawn out.
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: Yes, I don't see the EU even lasting much beyond
• 14:29
  Speaker 2: twenty thirty. Actually, you know this is why they went
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: after you know, Victor in Hungary. But I did a post. Look,
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: they went they sent in EU people to count the
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: vote in the Scottish referendum to make sure they didn't separate.
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: They went after Barcelona and in Italy to me sure
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: that he because he wanted to separate, to get him
• 15:05
  Speaker 2: out of out of politics, they interfered in the Romanian
• 15:09
  Speaker 2: election election to prevent them from leaving. This is their strategy.
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: They interfere in every election that would go against them.
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: And now once they got rid of Victor, Ursula actually
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: stood up and said it's time to change the system
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: that no single country can block them. To create the
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: EU to assure people wouldn't become What is doing is
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: they said it would require a unanimous vote, so no
• 15:52
  Speaker 2: individual country could be oppressed by another one. She's removing
• 15:57
  Speaker 2: that because that's what Victor was doing. He was preventing
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: war with Russia and going into Ukraine.
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: Then I suppose the segue is obviously the relationship with
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: multiplarity in bricks. And you've criticized the dedollarization process.
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: Yes, it was. Look it was set in motion when
• 16:31
  Speaker 2: Blincoln and Secretary of State removed Russia from Swift Okay,
• 16:39
  Speaker 2: Once they did that, that was a geopolitical move. That's
• 16:45
  Speaker 2: what created bricks. Because he had the audacity to even
• 16:50
  Speaker 2: threaten China that if you help Russia in this war
• 16:55
  Speaker 2: with Ukraine, will do the same to you. That's what
• 16:57
  Speaker 2: I mean. These people do not think be on the
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: end of their nose. These things were all powerful, therefore
• 17:04
  Speaker 2: we always win. Not true, okay, but most of the people, fairly,
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: they just listen to the propaganda. Oh, the Petro Dour. Look,
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: that was a conspiracy theory they floated in nineteen seventy
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: four because when Brenton Woods broke and the doer went
• 17:33
  Speaker 2: up and set it down, they said, oh, well, now
• 17:36
  Speaker 2: it's backed by oil not gold. It was all bullshit too, okay.
• 17:42
  Speaker 2: If you just google it up, what percent of the
• 17:46
  Speaker 2: world economy is energy, It's less than ten percent. What's
• 17:52
  Speaker 2: the real backing of the Dour? It's the US has
• 17:56
  Speaker 2: the largest consumer based economy, So Germany's got to sell
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: US Mercedes and it's BMW's in dours, okay. Japan's gotta
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: sell us Toyotas in dollars. On top of that, the
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: United States is the financial capital Britain was before World
• 18:20
  Speaker 2: War One. You can go on eBay and you'll see it.
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: Even China issued bonds and British pounds, okay, because that's
• 18:29
  Speaker 2: where you had to go to raise money. Today it's
• 18:32
  Speaker 2: New York, so all the emerging markets, they issue debt
• 18:38
  Speaker 2: in dollars. China warned all the provinces do not borrow
• 18:43
  Speaker 2: in dollars. They did. That became a debt crisis over there.
• 18:48
  Speaker 2: All right. It's basically it's got nothing to do with
• 18:55
  Speaker 2: swift or anything else. It's the US is the largest
• 19:02
  Speaker 2: consumer economy that everybody's got to sell into, the same
• 19:06
  Speaker 2: as Rome. Okay, it became more beneficial to be part
• 19:12
  Speaker 2: of the Roman Empire because you got to sell things
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: from London to you know, to Syria. It was more
• 19:21
  Speaker 2: like a common market. That was the benefit of remaining inside.
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: So it's the world economy that really is the backing
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: of a currency. It's not gold, oil, uh, you know,
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: anything else you can have. I mean, Russia's got is
• 19:41
  Speaker 2: the richest country in the world. The why isn't the
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: rubled's reserve currency. Saudi Arabia has got all the oil.
• 19:48
  Speaker 2: Why aren't they the reserve currency? All right, they don't
• 19:51
  Speaker 2: have the economies. You got to sell your stuff. That's
• 19:57
  Speaker 2: that's what makes the economy and the dour basically the
• 20:01
  Speaker 2: place where you have to go for now, that's going
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: to change, I mean, after twenty thirty two will probably
• 20:08
  Speaker 2: move to China, but for now it's the dollar.
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: Interesting enough, you've also suggested that the pound might break
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: parity by around twenty twenty seven. What do you mean
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: by that?
• 20:23
  Speaker 2: Basically, you have Starmer has been a complete disaster economically,
• 20:34
  Speaker 2: and even Europe. If you look at the GDP growth
• 20:39
  Speaker 2: of the EU, it's one point five percent, It's nearly
• 20:46
  Speaker 2: half out of the United States. Look at it from
• 20:52
  Speaker 2: another perspective, add up the cost of government as a
• 20:56
  Speaker 2: percent of GDP Europe is virtually fifty So every euro
• 21:06
  Speaker 2: that's created fifty percent of it goes to bureaucrats. In
• 21:10
  Speaker 2: the United States is thirty five. The larger the government gets. Okay,
• 21:17
  Speaker 2: it's kind of like you hire a maid to take
• 21:19
  Speaker 2: care of your house. She doesn't bring in income, all right,
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: she costs you something. That's why they call them public servants,
• 21:30
  Speaker 2: because they produce nothing but red tape regulation and they
• 21:36
  Speaker 2: lower the economic growth of any country.
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: When you speak about Europe, though, just for clarity, do
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: you include the UK.
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: Generally? Yes, but the EUS got its own problems. I mean,
• 21:54
  Speaker 2: as you know, I was friends with Margaret Thatcher, and
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: back then I could talk to heads of state. They
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: were intelligent I don't know any of them today that
• 22:10
  Speaker 2: I want to have sit down and have a drink with.
• 22:15
  Speaker 2: But Maggie knew. She even said the whole idea of
• 22:19
  Speaker 2: the Euro, and they staged a coup against her to
• 22:23
  Speaker 2: push her out because they wanted it. They thought, oh,
• 22:26
  Speaker 2: the Euro was going to be this great thing. They
• 22:29
  Speaker 2: wanted to surrender the pound, all right, and they stuck
• 22:37
  Speaker 2: Major stuck the pound in the ERM preparing to go
• 22:41
  Speaker 2: to the Euro. And that's when Soro's attacked it because
• 22:45
  Speaker 2: he overvalued it all right, to make Britain look strong,
• 22:50
  Speaker 2: so overvalued against the Deutsche Mark. Because I had advised
• 22:57
  Speaker 2: Satchert not to do it. I got called when the
• 23:03
  Speaker 2: pound was getting attacked and I said, look, you overvalue.
• 23:07
  Speaker 2: You got to devalue the pound. I was told John
• 23:13
  Speaker 2: Major promised during the election not to devalue the pound.
• 23:21
  Speaker 2: So I swear to God what I told him was this.
• 23:24
  Speaker 2: I said, okay, fine, I know how politics works. Say
• 23:30
  Speaker 2: you're going to allow the pound to float to seek
• 23:33
  Speaker 2: its own level. It's the same thing, but you didn't
• 23:38
  Speaker 2: declare it. Okay, So this is the problem that Britain is.
• 23:47
  Speaker 2: You have this starmer insanity about the economy. You cannot
• 23:56
  Speaker 2: possibly have social justice economic efficiency at the same time.
• 24:06
  Speaker 2: You know, it's physically impossible. So they're following the same
• 24:13
  Speaker 2: path as Russia and China did and communism collapsed.
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: But basically Europe needs award, doesn't it doesn't necessarily want it.
• 24:26
  Speaker 2: Oh, it needs it. They this is the problem. Same thing.
• 24:31
  Speaker 2: You look at Iran Israel, Net and Yahoo's up for election.
• 24:41
  Speaker 2: He needs a victory otherwise he's going to be voted out,
• 24:45
  Speaker 2: so they basically go with this. You don't change horses
• 24:51
  Speaker 2: in the middle of a stream, all right, So as
• 24:54
  Speaker 2: long as you're in war, you will win. And that's
• 24:57
  Speaker 2: what these people have always bank their political you know,
• 25:03
  Speaker 2: theories on it. So the problem we have with the
• 25:08
  Speaker 2: Iran war is the same thing. You know, Trump's got
• 25:15
  Speaker 2: trapped in it by Net and Yahoo. He's been trying
• 25:19
  Speaker 2: to get the hell out of it, but he's got
• 25:24
  Speaker 2: midterm elections coming up and he's making a mess of it.
• 25:32
  Speaker 2: So it's it's all about retaining power. And that's what
• 25:40
  Speaker 2: really is that at stake in any political election.
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: Your war cycle model called twenty twenty three is the
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: start of aggression and six as a pendic cycle and yeah,
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: we are.
• 25:58
  Speaker 2: It's probably going to escalate more towards the UH from
• 26:02
  Speaker 2: June on, I think. And the computer's been forecasting basically
• 26:10
  Speaker 2: world War three, but different from the sense of World
• 26:14
  Speaker 2: War one er two. And it's showing that we're looking
• 26:19
  Speaker 2: at confrontations around the world, not necessarily one single entity
• 26:26
  Speaker 2: that we're fighting. So you're seeing China versus Taiwan, North
• 26:33
  Speaker 2: Korea versus to South Thailand versus Cambodia, UH, Pakistan versus
• 26:41
  Speaker 2: you know, India and Afghanistan. It's it's all over, uh, everywhere, UH.
• 26:51
  Speaker 2: And a lot of it has got Like take Iran
• 26:57
  Speaker 2: for example, it's Netanya who's been saying they're developing nuclear
• 27:10
  Speaker 2: weapons and they'll have it in two weeks. And he's
• 27:13
  Speaker 2: been saying that since two thousand and three. Okay, he's
• 27:18
  Speaker 2: testified before Congress swore that Netanya who he swore that
• 27:27
  Speaker 2: Satim Hussein had weapons of mass destruction and we've got
• 27:31
  Speaker 2: to stop them immediately. It's always the same story with him.
• 27:40
  Speaker 2: You look at Zelensky, it's the same thing. I've got
• 27:43
  Speaker 2: videos of Zolensky before he was president, standing on stage
• 27:49
  Speaker 2: as a comedian talking about confiscating the assets of Russians
• 27:55
  Speaker 2: and Jews. All right, he married a Christian girl, his
• 28:01
  Speaker 2: children are baptized, all right. Only when he became president
• 28:08
  Speaker 2: did he suddenly say, oh, I'm Jewish. Why to deflect
• 28:13
  Speaker 2: the fact that he was hanging out with basically all
• 28:17
  Speaker 2: the neo Nazis pretending to be Christian like sorrows same thing. Okay,
• 28:26
  Speaker 2: you know he Zelenski doesn't care about Ukraine. He just
• 28:33
  Speaker 2: hates Russians. We've had two employees there, one in Kiev
• 28:38
  Speaker 2: and one in dun Esku. It wouldn't even talk to
• 28:40
  Speaker 2: each other, all right. With net Yahoo, it's just personal
• 28:48
  Speaker 2: hatred of Iran. So it's sound like, you know, playing
• 28:53
  Speaker 2: Monopoly or something. I'll give you park plays for a boardwalk.
• 28:56
  Speaker 2: You know, this is just personal hatred.
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: Now, you were talking about Trump earlier. Do you think
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: the neo cons might attempt to assassinate him or even vance?
• 29:14
  Speaker 2: No, I think they did initially, but he's doing what
• 29:21
  Speaker 2: they want. At this stage in the game, They're going
• 29:28
  Speaker 2: to have a real problem because what Netna who has
• 29:33
  Speaker 2: done is this is the first time the majority of
• 29:39
  Speaker 2: both the Democrats on Capitol Hill and the people are
• 29:44
  Speaker 2: anti Israel. He's lost the support of Israel in the
• 29:50
  Speaker 2: United States, whereas before they walked on water, now they don't.
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: Would you say there's a relationship between the Near Contons,
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: the World Economic Forum, the deep State?
• 30:10
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, look, the deep state is basically unelected
• 30:14
  Speaker 2: people that want to run foreign policy everything. I mean,
• 30:20
  Speaker 2: that's why I said in ninety nine, that's where I
• 30:23
  Speaker 2: draw the line. They are the ones that picked Bush's cabinet.
• 30:30
  Speaker 2: They're the ones that's stuck in Cheney. I was even
• 30:33
  Speaker 2: asked to be Chief Economic Advisor. I declined. And ever since,
• 30:43
  Speaker 2: if you look at every administration, Clinton's, Obama, Obama wanted
• 30:50
  Speaker 2: to go into Syria, it's always the same story. You
• 30:56
  Speaker 2: had Bill Crystal, who I knew. You know, he was
• 31:02
  Speaker 2: so anti Trump that his magazine Weekly Standard collapsed, all right,
• 31:08
  Speaker 2: because he was anti Trump because he's a Neocon. His
• 31:11
  Speaker 2: father started it. And Trump back then was talking about peace,
• 31:17
  Speaker 2: anti war, et cetera. I think they used net and
• 31:21
  Speaker 2: Yahoo to get him in with this Iran war, and
• 31:28
  Speaker 2: they told him it was the same thing as Venezuela.
• 31:32
  Speaker 2: We take out we kill the Ayatola day one, and
• 31:35
  Speaker 2: the government will collapse and you win in an hour.
• 31:40
  Speaker 2: And I think that's why he went in. I do
• 31:45
  Speaker 2: not think he expected where we're at, and now he
• 31:50
  Speaker 2: can't get out.
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: Yeah. So do you think Trump has made a mistake, oh,
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: eral judgment?
• 31:56
  Speaker 2: Yes?
• 31:58
  Speaker 1: Do you think he knows it?
• 32:00
  Speaker 2: Yes? I think he does. Now. Look, he tried to
• 32:05
  Speaker 2: do his these five you know, and he didn't even
• 32:09
  Speaker 2: bring net Yahoo to the table. There's a debate in
• 32:18
  Speaker 2: the United States. People are very upset the fact that
• 32:22
  Speaker 2: net Yahoo went into the situation room. No foreign head
• 32:26
  Speaker 2: of state has ever gone in there to pitch a war. Ever,
• 32:33
  Speaker 2: they won't. You know. Trump has tried to play down
• 32:37
  Speaker 2: said no, it was my decision because he doesn't want
• 32:40
  Speaker 2: to admit publicly that he was manipulated by net Yahu.
• 32:44
  Speaker 2: And like to people in the CIA have even said
• 32:49
  Speaker 2: you cannot trust Israeli intelligence. It's always skewed to their favor.
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: Is Trump smart or is he just a blocket?
• 33:06
  Speaker 2: He is smart, But I think he has a character flaw,
• 33:11
  Speaker 2: and that is that because he was always I think belittled.
• 33:21
  Speaker 2: Oh you're not saying it was daddy's money, that sort
• 33:24
  Speaker 2: of thing. I think that's why he wanted to become president,
• 33:27
  Speaker 2: to say I did this, not daddy, but and I
• 33:33
  Speaker 2: think what the neocons are doing is that knowing once
• 33:40
  Speaker 2: they got him in, he doesn't like to admit that
• 33:43
  Speaker 2: he made a mistake, and he always feels that he
• 33:48
  Speaker 2: has to win. So I think as part of the
• 33:53
  Speaker 2: background and a character issue that they're using against them,
• 33:57
  Speaker 2: That's what I can see.
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: You also speak about gold, and you mentioned it earlier
• 34:03
  Speaker 1: and right now would you say that we're in a
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: traditional bull market or in a panic mode.
• 34:12
  Speaker 2: Or what now? We're still in the long term bull market.
• 34:16
  Speaker 2: I mean the computer, you know, I stood up and said, look,
• 34:21
  Speaker 2: we're gonna go will go down for a couple of
• 34:24
  Speaker 2: months into April, and the computer is absolutely correct. People
• 34:30
  Speaker 2: have to understand that they were or why is gold
• 34:35
  Speaker 2: going down in the middle of war when from a
• 34:41
  Speaker 2: couple of things, One, Russia was selling gold because it's
• 34:45
  Speaker 2: sanctions and needing cash, all right. Two we have offices
• 34:51
  Speaker 2: in UAE, I can tell you because I don't think
• 34:57
  Speaker 2: it ever made the news, but with Iran actually sent
• 35:06
  Speaker 2: more missiles and drones against UAE than they did you
• 35:09
  Speaker 2: with Israel. Why Because Dubai basically has become the replaced Switzerland.
• 35:21
  Speaker 2: That's where all the money was moving to. All right,
• 35:26
  Speaker 2: they attacked the AI systems there a project and most
• 35:34
  Speaker 2: people do not realize, but Amazon open AI, they're all there. Okay.
• 35:43
  Speaker 2: When they attacked it, the banking system in UAE went
• 35:49
  Speaker 2: down for seven days. My staff, you know, I couldn't
• 35:55
  Speaker 2: even get the money. All right, this was the problem, right,
• 36:00
  Speaker 2: And most people also don't realize if I ran really
• 36:09
  Speaker 2: was at the stage of completely capitulating. If I were them,
• 36:17
  Speaker 2: I would take the underground. The cables that go in
• 36:22
  Speaker 2: in the straits are harmoose. Down with me. Most people
• 36:27
  Speaker 2: don't realize. But the Internet banking system, all the cables
• 36:32
  Speaker 2: connecting east and west go through the straits are harmose.
• 36:37
  Speaker 2: They lie right there on the bottom. I would have
• 36:41
  Speaker 2: sent in divers and I would have planted bombs there.
• 36:47
  Speaker 2: And okay, this is really what you want, boom, You know,
• 36:53
  Speaker 2: if they have a lot more capability than people suspect,
• 37:03
  Speaker 2: I would say, with the uranium that they do have,
• 37:09
  Speaker 2: if they couldn't send a nuclear bomb per se, they
• 37:17
  Speaker 2: certainly could do you know, dirty bombs. Put it in
• 37:23
  Speaker 2: a container like a briefcase or whatever, and take it
• 37:25
  Speaker 2: over to televivive and push the button. So I mean,
• 37:30
  Speaker 2: there's a lot more that, and we have to respect
• 37:36
  Speaker 2: the problem here is that Netanyahu his objective regime change.
• 37:45
  Speaker 2: So you're talking about not a negotiated settlement per se,
• 37:53
  Speaker 2: all right, you do this, I'll do that. He wants
• 37:57
  Speaker 2: the death penalty. When you're talking about complete capitulation, the
• 38:05
  Speaker 2: death of a Islamic republic, that government. Everything's on the table.
• 38:13
  Speaker 1: Gold dollar, US stocks all rising together as what you
• 38:20
  Speaker 1: point out as a key signal. And I think you've
• 38:24
  Speaker 1: also noted that most people think that a strong dollar
• 38:27
  Speaker 1: is bad for gold.
• 38:29
  Speaker 2: It's capital flows. People don't understand this, they really don't,
• 38:35
  Speaker 2: and neither most people in government. That's why I end
• 38:38
  Speaker 2: up getting called in a lot. But if you look
• 38:43
  Speaker 2: at the United States, JP Morgan had to bail out
• 38:48
  Speaker 2: the US treasure as virtually bankrupt in eighteen ninety six.
• 38:53
  Speaker 2: It was World War one and two that made the
• 38:57
  Speaker 2: United States the financial capital of the world. As Europe
• 39:02
  Speaker 2: is blowing itself up, all the capital fled to the
• 39:06
  Speaker 2: United States. People don't understand even what nineteen twenty nine
• 39:12
  Speaker 2: was about. It's the same thing as Tokyo nineteen eighty nine.
• 39:17
  Speaker 2: All right. It's capital concentration, all right, So you have
• 39:24
  Speaker 2: excess capital coming from all these countries into the United States.
• 39:30
  Speaker 2: That's what made nineteen twenty nine so big, all right.
• 39:36
  Speaker 2: It's different from a normalable market that was Tokyo. The
• 39:41
  Speaker 2: same problem. All the capital was rushing into Tokyo. The
• 39:45
  Speaker 2: yen was going up with the stock market, et cetera.
• 39:50
  Speaker 2: So a foreigner is going to make money when the
• 39:55
  Speaker 2: currency's rising and the investment's rising. If the investment doubles
• 40:01
  Speaker 2: in price but the currency drops fifty percent, you didn't
• 40:05
  Speaker 2: make any money. You know. We have to look at
• 40:10
  Speaker 2: this from an international perspective. Okay, So why does the
• 40:15
  Speaker 2: dour go up, gold go up, and the stock market
• 40:19
  Speaker 2: That is capital concentration. That happens because everybody else is
• 40:24
  Speaker 2: blowing themselves up. All right. You got to put your
• 40:28
  Speaker 2: money someplace, you know, during World War one and two,
• 40:32
  Speaker 2: you got tanks running down the street blowing up banks.
• 40:35
  Speaker 2: You really want to leave your money there, you move it,
• 40:40
  Speaker 2: all right. So some people buy gold, some people buy stocks.
• 40:45
  Speaker 2: Institutions that will tend to buy more on the stock side.
• 40:52
  Speaker 2: So just look at the bull market, all right. The
• 40:57
  Speaker 2: Dow was leading when the down leads. That's the big
• 41:02
  Speaker 2: international capital. Okay. They don't buy the startups and stuff
• 41:08
  Speaker 2: like that. That's retail, all right. So when the Nasdaq
• 41:13
  Speaker 2: then starts going and people say, oh, it's sock market's
• 41:17
  Speaker 2: going to crash eighty percent, they don't know the first
• 41:21
  Speaker 2: thing about anything. All right. If the sock market's going
• 41:27
  Speaker 2: to crash eighty percent, then that means you're going to
• 41:32
  Speaker 2: buy government bonds and the governments are in trouble at
• 41:38
  Speaker 2: this point. Come on, you know this isn't You can't
• 41:42
  Speaker 2: pull out the charts from twenty nine and say the
• 41:45
  Speaker 2: same thing is going to happen. You don't know what
• 41:48
  Speaker 2: facts made that development. Okay, So when capital is concentrating,
• 41:57
  Speaker 2: because in the war with Europe, et cetera, the smart
• 42:03
  Speaker 2: money has been leaving. We have a lot of clients
• 42:09
  Speaker 2: in Europe, major institutions, we told them, and so you
• 42:16
  Speaker 2: saw a lot of them moving their gold from London
• 42:20
  Speaker 2: and Switzerland to New York and Singapore. Why simply because
• 42:26
  Speaker 2: Europe goes into war, you get capital controls. You'll never
• 42:31
  Speaker 2: get it out.
• 42:33
  Speaker 1: How does cbdc's being approved, which and you've referred to
• 42:42
  Speaker 1: it as a digital gooleg how does that influence the
• 42:45
  Speaker 1: collapse of Europe? I mean, how quickly does this all roll.
• 42:49
  Speaker 2: Out, largely because, first of all, constitutionally, it cannot be
• 42:55
  Speaker 2: done in the United States. So that's why you see
• 42:59
  Speaker 2: stable coins. Individual banks can issue a stable coin backed
• 43:06
  Speaker 2: by US Treasury bonds. That's the same scheme that Abraham
• 43:12
  Speaker 2: Lincoln did to fund the Civil Wars back then, a
• 43:15
  Speaker 2: bank was allowed to issue currency against the bonds that
• 43:18
  Speaker 2: it held. The FED cannot and has come out even
• 43:22
  Speaker 2: publicly and said they cannot do a CBDC. Why because
• 43:31
  Speaker 2: they would need a search warrant to look at your account,
• 43:36
  Speaker 2: all right. Europe doesn't have that problem. Europe is a
• 43:44
  Speaker 2: Marxist you know, Wonderland basically, I mean part of the
• 43:50
  Speaker 2: reason the dollars also the reserve currency. Seventy percent of
• 43:57
  Speaker 2: the paper dollars are held outside the United States. Why,
• 44:02
  Speaker 2: because everybody knows. The United States has never canceled its
• 44:06
  Speaker 2: paper currency. Europe routinely does. Even the UK. You got
• 44:13
  Speaker 2: an old twenty pound note, you know, you go to
• 44:19
  Speaker 2: a currency, Oh sorry, we can't do that, it's no
• 44:22
  Speaker 2: longer valid. You got to go to the central bank.
• 44:26
  Speaker 2: Europe routinely cancels its currency. Why if you had a
• 44:32
  Speaker 2: couple hundred thousand euros in your safety deposit box. They
• 44:35
  Speaker 2: cancel that currency and say here, we got the new ones.
• 44:38
  Speaker 2: Even Switzerland does this. You can google it and see
• 44:41
  Speaker 2: all the new notes versus the old ones. All right,
• 44:44
  Speaker 2: it forces you to bring that money to out. Okay,
• 44:49
  Speaker 2: I got a couple hundred thousand and the old ones.
• 44:53
  Speaker 2: Give me the new ones. Oh where'd you get this?
• 44:57
  Speaker 2: Did you pay taxes? Can you prove you pay tax
• 45:00
  Speaker 2: is on this? This is how they do it, you know.
• 45:04
  Speaker 2: So Europe is trying to move to a CBDC for
• 45:07
  Speaker 2: two reasons. One, so they don't have to cancel the
• 45:11
  Speaker 2: currency anymore, and they want every penny they can get
• 45:16
  Speaker 2: their hands on. And secondly, it's it is a gulag.
• 45:23
  Speaker 2: It's the ultimate means of preventing capital flight. The whole
• 45:32
  Speaker 2: reason bitcoin became popular was because of China. The Chinese
• 45:41
  Speaker 2: figured that they could buy bitcoin in China, sell it
• 45:44
  Speaker 2: in New York and they got their money out. It
• 45:47
  Speaker 2: didn't go through the banks. Eventually, you're gonna look this
• 45:52
  Speaker 2: up to the central Bank called in all the bitcoin
• 45:58
  Speaker 2: people when they realized it was being used to circumvent regulations.
• 46:04
  Speaker 2: That's why the cryptos have been a favorite of money laundering.
• 46:12
  Speaker 2: A lot of the big volume has been largely just
• 46:15
  Speaker 2: money laundering, moving it from one place to another to
• 46:18
  Speaker 2: circumvent the central banks. But Europe is looking to do
• 46:22
  Speaker 2: this as soon as possible. Once they do it, you're
• 46:30
  Speaker 2: probably going to see the war afterwards, because they want
• 46:33
  Speaker 2: to prevent money from fleeing.
• 46:36
  Speaker 1: And that'll include banning gold and bitcoin.
• 46:40
  Speaker 2: They have done that before. They banned silver. They banned gold.
• 46:45
  Speaker 2: You couldn't buy it. During World War Two. A lot
• 46:49
  Speaker 2: of the Europeans, what they were doing were buying gold
• 46:53
  Speaker 2: stocks in New York because they couldn't buy gold. So,
• 47:00
  Speaker 2: I mean, the capital always finds a way around around
• 47:04
  Speaker 2: the you know, the red light. Let me go this
• 47:06
  Speaker 2: corner of that corner, you know, to circumvent it.
• 47:10
  Speaker 1: Meanwhile, there's a dragon that's sleeping.
• 47:14
  Speaker 2: Yes. Look, we have offices in China. H When we
• 47:27
  Speaker 2: were opening there, the guy that was running our office
• 47:33
  Speaker 2: there was called in by the head of security for China.
• 47:38
  Speaker 2: We were all kind of, you know, like, oh my god,
• 47:40
  Speaker 2: what's going on. He probably, you know, needed some diapers
• 47:46
  Speaker 2: at that point. You know, he got there and met
• 47:51
  Speaker 2: with the actual head. So it wasn't just some bureaucrat.
• 47:56
  Speaker 2: He got there and they said, so, you know mister Armstrong, Yes,
• 48:04
  Speaker 2: so what does he say about China? You know, back
• 48:12
  Speaker 2: in ninety seven when there was the Asian currency crisis,
• 48:19
  Speaker 2: I was the first person from the West to be
• 48:22
  Speaker 2: called in and you know, by the Bank of China.
• 48:25
  Speaker 2: I went and met because I wanted to go. You know,
• 48:27
  Speaker 2: I thought I would have to listen to a bunch
• 48:29
  Speaker 2: of bureaucrats. I went because I wanted to go see
• 48:33
  Speaker 2: the Great Wall. So I thought, okay, fine, I'm going
• 48:36
  Speaker 2: to have to listen to some bureaucrats, but I get
• 48:39
  Speaker 2: to go see things that I wouldn't otherwise be allowed to.
• 48:45
  Speaker 2: I got there and then I understood why they called me.
• 48:50
  Speaker 2: And rather than somebody from Harvard, they were all traders.
• 48:55
  Speaker 2: China had sent these people out and they worked on
• 48:59
  Speaker 2: the dealing day of New York, Tokyo, and London, and
• 49:02
  Speaker 2: then went back to run the Central bank. And actually,
• 49:10
  Speaker 2: when I got back, people from the FED and the
• 49:12
  Speaker 2: US Treasury called, gee, what was it like. You're the
• 49:15
  Speaker 2: first person to go there. And I took the knife,
• 49:18
  Speaker 2: stuck it in their back and I turned it. I said,
• 49:20
  Speaker 2: very interesting. They only hire people with experience. China has
• 49:30
  Speaker 2: looked at the United States, and they've looked at Europe.
• 49:35
  Speaker 2: They see Europe as nothing more than another Marxist regime
• 49:39
  Speaker 2: that failed. They looked at the United States and they
• 49:43
  Speaker 2: understood what makes the United States the reserve currency, the
• 49:48
  Speaker 2: consumer based economy. As I said, so what is China
• 49:54
  Speaker 2: doing re establishing the sink, you know, the soilk Road.
• 49:59
  Speaker 2: They are trying to build a consumer based economy. They're
• 50:05
  Speaker 2: in everywhere from Iraq to South America, and they're doing
• 50:12
  Speaker 2: it quietly while US is bombing the hell out of everybody.
• 50:17
  Speaker 2: They're over there offering money. Okay, here's a contract, and
• 50:22
  Speaker 2: that's why our computer does show that they will become
• 50:26
  Speaker 2: the financial capital of the world after twenty thirty two.
• 50:30
  Speaker 2: What does that mean though US will most likely break up.
• 50:35
  Speaker 2: You're seeing that not just the US. You're looking at Canada, Europe. Look,
• 50:45
  Speaker 2: the reason Russia collapse and China is a centralized government
• 50:53
  Speaker 2: which becomes dictorial historically always fails. All right, I was
• 51:01
  Speaker 2: just up in Canada. I did a speaking engagement in
• 51:06
  Speaker 2: Alberta and then over to BC. You're looking at the
• 51:12
  Speaker 2: West splitting from the East, unquestionable. All right, Alberta is
• 51:21
  Speaker 2: the most productive province. The East is all Marxists and
• 51:31
  Speaker 2: exploits Alberta for the money. They are so highly regulated.
• 51:40
  Speaker 2: If you're a lawyer and you've got a degree in
• 51:43
  Speaker 2: Nova Scotia, you can't practice in Newfoundland. We're in the
• 51:48
  Speaker 2: United States, you can, all right. Each province acts as
• 51:53
  Speaker 2: if it's got protective orders, tariffs. It thinks of this nature.
• 52:01
  Speaker 2: Each one is trying to, you know, is very Marxist
• 52:05
  Speaker 2: in that sense. The ultimate example, and carniis basically destroying Canada.
• 52:17
  Speaker 2: All right. But here you have alberta major producer in oil,
• 52:25
  Speaker 2: et cetera. Because of the woke climate change agenda, there's
• 52:35
  Speaker 2: no pipelines from Alberta to the East. So the East
• 52:41
  Speaker 2: actually has to import oil like Europe because they can't
• 52:46
  Speaker 2: even get it from the west. This is how insane
• 52:50
  Speaker 2: everything's becoming. Europe is very divided, same as the United States,
• 52:58
  Speaker 2: left versus right. Their fight over each other, back and forth. Oh,
• 53:02
  Speaker 2: you're wrong, I'm right. This it's it's that's what you
• 53:09
  Speaker 2: saw in Rome during the third century, once they started
• 53:15
  Speaker 2: fighting amongst each other. All right. There were nineteen emperors
• 53:21
  Speaker 2: between twenty thirty five, all right, and twenty sixty and
• 53:31
  Speaker 2: that internal conflict, all right, is why Persia decided to
• 53:38
  Speaker 2: invade and then the Celts. Once you have a country
• 53:44
  Speaker 2: that's no longer unified and fighting amongst each other, they
• 53:49
  Speaker 2: tried to go in when Russia was going through the
• 53:53
  Speaker 2: Russian you know revolution, United States and others were there
• 53:58
  Speaker 2: trying to support in divide. You know, it's a civil war.
• 54:02
  Speaker 2: Now it's our shot to get a piece of the action. Uh,
• 54:07
  Speaker 2: this is standard. So I mean, all you're gonna do
• 54:13
  Speaker 2: is pick up a history book and you'll see.
• 54:16
  Speaker 1: Where do we fitt in? Where does Africa fitt in?
• 54:21
  Speaker 2: Uh? Largely you're looking at the north blowing itself up. Okay,
• 54:29
  Speaker 2: so Africa and South America will rise from you know, yeah,
• 54:38
  Speaker 2: pretty much. Yeah. But I mean, you know, everything that
• 54:47
  Speaker 2: made Europe so great has been destroyed with regulations and
• 54:54
  Speaker 2: all this crazy stuff in the United States is going
• 54:57
  Speaker 2: into the same you know direction. Uh, and you had
• 55:04
  Speaker 2: you know, California. Because Trump's elected, we want to separate.
• 55:08
  Speaker 2: So in other words, if you don't approve of the president,
• 55:12
  Speaker 2: then you want to separate. I mean, this is pretty
• 55:17
  Speaker 2: much the end of the American Empire.
• 55:21
  Speaker 1: As we've known it and the West.
• 55:25
  Speaker 2: In the Yes, this is what the computers showing. It's uh.
• 55:29
  Speaker 2: Europe will not win this war against Russia. Napoleon and
• 55:37
  Speaker 2: Hitler both lost because they had too many fronts. I've
• 55:45
  Speaker 2: worn them. I said what I would do on the
• 55:47
  Speaker 2: opposite side, tie your ass up in Iran, make you
• 55:53
  Speaker 2: bleed you to death with all your use, all your missiles,
• 55:56
  Speaker 2: et cetera, as we were doing with Ukraine against Russia.
• 56:02
  Speaker 2: All right, then Russia goes in completely takes Ukraine, which
• 56:12
  Speaker 2: they've never tried. They were only going after Dombas, trying
• 56:17
  Speaker 2: to take Taiwan. North Korea goes into the South, and
• 56:20
  Speaker 2: what are you going to do? Can you fight that
• 56:23
  Speaker 2: many wars on that many fronts? Can't? So, I mean,
• 56:30
  Speaker 2: if you really want to mess around, it's not so
• 56:35
  Speaker 2: hard because these neocons don't think past the end of
• 56:40
  Speaker 2: their nose. All they care about is a single war
• 56:45
  Speaker 2: and they have no strategy. Just like I said with Iraq,
• 56:51
  Speaker 2: or we just got to remove Saddam, what afterwards We'll
• 56:56
  Speaker 2: worry about that later. There's no strategy.
• 57:03
  Speaker 1: Famous Afghanistan.
• 57:05
  Speaker 2: Yes, absolutely, they've lost every single one because they're arrogance.
• 57:13
  Speaker 2: Is we are the biggest military. Therefore we automatically win.
• 57:17
  Speaker 2: And they have not proven that to be correct even once.
• 57:23
  Speaker 1: How how can they be turned around? I mean, Kenneth,
• 57:30
  Speaker 1: I don't think so.
• 57:35
  Speaker 2: But a lot of the people are now beginning to
• 57:37
  Speaker 2: realize that the biggest problem we have are these forms
• 57:44
  Speaker 2: of republican governments. They're the worst. I'm hoping more that
• 57:51
  Speaker 2: we go to a direct democracy where we are asked
• 57:58
  Speaker 2: the question, shall we go to war with Iran? Yes
• 58:01
  Speaker 2: or no? All right, nobody asks us about anything. Vietnam
• 58:11
  Speaker 2: eighteen old enough to get drafted. You weren't old enough
• 58:15
  Speaker 2: to even have a drink. That was twenty one, and
• 58:19
  Speaker 2: that's when you had to be twenty one to vote.
• 58:22
  Speaker 2: But that's democracy, that's tyranny. That's not democracy, all right.
• 58:28
  Speaker 2: Take Europe. It was deliberately designed to prevent democracy. Ursula.
• 58:38
  Speaker 2: She's appointed by the heads of the states, not even
• 58:42
  Speaker 2: voted in parliament. She's never stood for an election, not
• 58:47
  Speaker 2: even a dog catcher. I mean, she's just a dictator.
• 58:52
  Speaker 2: And she has the audacity to call putin the dictator
• 58:56
  Speaker 2: or victor. They at least stood for an election. She
• 59:00
  Speaker 2: never has. This is what people, I think more and
• 59:07
  Speaker 2: more people are going to see this and what our
• 59:11
  Speaker 2: computer's showing is post twenty thirty two. This is the
• 59:17
  Speaker 2: end of republics and hopefully we go to an actual
• 59:21
  Speaker 2: democracy closer to Switzerland in the sense that at least
• 59:25
  Speaker 2: they have a referendum shall we do this, yes or no?
• 59:30
  Speaker 2: And the people actually vote. We're not, you know, we're
• 59:34
  Speaker 2: just the dirt beneath their feet, basically, we're you know,
• 59:43
  Speaker 2: we're just you know, basically economic slaves. Here's a gun,
• 59:47
  Speaker 2: go kill somebody, and that's it, and you know, there's
• 59:56
  Speaker 2: just you know, it's time for a change. And that's
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 2: what I think. The more this gets to be understood,
• 1:00:06
  Speaker 2: the more that you know, these crazy wars keep going
• 1:00:09
  Speaker 2: and this Iron Iran war is a complete disaster, all right,
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 2: and as that comes to the surface, all right, more
• 1:00:24
  Speaker 2: and more people are going to demand political change globally.
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 2: I mean, that's where we're going.
• 1:00:30
  Speaker 1: Martin. How can my audience follow your work and your insights.
