Alastair's insights are so on the money. I admire him for calling out the west's flagrant, hateful hypocrisy.

But what do we expect? Honestly? The western hegemon is a voracious, no mercy system of absolute autocracy ruled from Washington. There are no equal players or participants: there is RULE, or there is PUNISHMENT!

And all parties seem to recognize that this is an existential fight - BRICS vs NATO. All cards will be played; all oaths called in; all treacheries, real or perceived, brutally punished. The western golden billion are putting all cards on the table. I hope that the new multipolar players realize that there is NO compromise here, no dialogue to effect some sort of Westphalian Peace. No. Those days are long gone. The west is dead without its overarching control of the UN, the money system, and its "rules based order". Their economies are tanking right before our eyes. War, however, will protect those who pull the strings from the consequences of their actions - they hope.

It's a shit-show, folks, one where our interests, opinions, or wellbeing are not even issues for the DAVOS' crowd's consideration. Their agenda is control. Money. Power. They give zero fucks about you, your family, your aspirations, or humanity. NONE! Remember that!

"there is RULE, or there is PUNISHMENT!"

My mother called this RULE or RUIN and I think that's accurate.

As a German, you can get a few years in prison for these frank words. That's why I'm holding back my emotions, as is appropriate in geopolitical considerations. ...

It is a mystery to me why the USA and its vassals are escalating worldwide. Even though the economic and fiscal situation in their own countries is becoming increasingly disastrous.

It was a revelation for me to read that NVIDIA is even laying off employees in the development sector. In any case, it is becoming increasingly clear that China, for example, is threatening to overtake the West in terms of technology and has already done so in some areas.

Deindustrialization is progressing. Prices for raw materials and energy are rising exorbitantly and the threat of war in West Asia and the aggression against China are likely to deal a death blow to national economies.

Today I heard the desperate plea of a woman in the pharmacy for insulin for her husband. The fourth pharmacy told her that insulin was no longer available. Hello, we are in Germany and not in Bangladesh. No more insulin? The pharmacist then told me that more than 250 drugs were no longer available.

What is happening on the stock markets in Japan and South Korea gives us an idea of what the West will soon be facing. Deflation or hyperinflation. Probably the latter.

The Western arms industry cannot keep pace with Russia, China and North Korea.

So what the hell do the US, Israel and the West expect from the world war?

Is it their plan to deliberately force the super-crash at home in order to restart the system with CBDC + social credit score + feudalism (including liquidation of inconvenient citizens) or do they actually think they are capable of stopping the development of the multipolar world? Nobody can be that stupid. Can't they? Stupidity or a plan, I'm still not sure.

What we have here within the Empire is our own version of the doctrines of Mein Kampf: Manifest Destiny and American Exceptionalism. The lies are told because the minds uttering them think themselves exceptional and immune from negative consequences. We are destined to rule the world so our actions must support that Divine Edict. Megalomania is a psychosis, and we've been witnesses to its actions all our life. The West generally has never been defeated, nor have the Zionists. The latter's plots have worked since their inception. As such, they expect to win--they're entitled because they are the Chosen. What do they expect? They expect their crimes to be wiped away via victory for then they can write the war's history. There're seven billion people who say no, that won't be happening.

The Great Depression didn't cause WW2--WW1 caused WW2. The Great Depression was caused by the collapse of two related Ponzi Schemes--one in Europe. the other in America. It appears that the current global Ponzi Scheme is preparing to crash, which will hopefully prevent a global war.

"The Great Depression didn't cause WW2--WW1 caused WW2."

The Prussians imposed severe reparations on the losing French at the close of the (1870-71) Franco-Prussian War. The French (with the Allies) returned the favor by leveling their own punishing reparations on the Germans after WW1. (say hello to WW2!) The famous French artist Henri Matisse, born on the last day of 1869, had the dubious good fortune of living through three major Euro-Wars. Imagine...he painted away while Europe was coming unglued all around him. That's poise and class. I wonder what kind of punishments the BRICS et al will level against the fascist USSA and fascist West after their imperial 'sell by date' comes to pass? I'm an old man but feel terrible for what my kids and grandkids and their peers are sure to encounter in the coming decades. Karma is a fierce and unforgiving scorekeeper. Lest I forget: FJB and that cackling, ignorant sidekick of his. (edited to correct the birth date of Matisse)

Hej Karl, not sure I agree with your last statement though, as I think they ONLY way they can climb out of the debt morass is to cause a world war and use its outcome to salvage some sort of control.

Banks rule the world, and the whole fiat banking money carousel of lies and deceit is collapsing, primarily, IMO, because the US abused its power and has pissed on the heads of the rest of the world, and the rest of the world has rightly said, nah, enough is enough.

I think war is inevitable because it cannot be avoided, plain and simple. Worse! it can't be avoided because some players are actively seeking to ignite it.

Insane. But in the west insanity is no barrier. We live in a wonderful garden, and the jungle encroaches from outside!

Well, to be correct, several wars are ongoing, not just in Palestine, Syria and Ukraine but in Africa, too. IMO, the key to all these conflicts is which side has the best gear and the required motivation to see it through to the end. NATO's in big trouble because of high levels of domestic strife that's escalating, and that situation is starting to occur within the Empire, too. And the banks, like the Vatican, have no armies. And one must remember that on the balance sheet all those debts are their assets--wipe out the debts and the related assets also disappear. Remember, it's not the banks that are in debt over their heads. Rather, the values of the properties upon which they made loans are underwater; and when default occurs, the property's sale won't cover the loan thus generating a loss. Even reselling the property won't recover the initial loss because the new price will be much lower, if indeed the building can be sold at all, with that possibility looming ever larger. War won't stop those loses; rather, it will accelerate them. The Banks should want peace so stability can return. Risk management amidst great volatility is close to impossible.

As a fellow Euroserf, i have the same questions & worries...

One thing is sure: the US will sacrifice Europe in any ways imaginable to buy time for itself. So, unlike as in the GFC of 2008, we will probably get the the first big shock of any future incoming financial / monetary / economic / trade crisis.

You answered the question you asked in your 1st sentence, with the facts of what you stated in your 2nd sentence. Being British today I would most likely be put in jail for stating the obvious also. But unlike you I'm that sick of these criminals getting away with their crimes against humanity, including their own citizens I will say it. Their greed & corruption has been that massive they've destroyed our economies. The only way they can save themselves is by a world War & stealing everyone else's resources. Which country is hell bent on drawing everyone into a world War? I mean it's provoking as many foreign nations as it possibly can. As repeatidly as it can. For the American Congress to behave the way it did, toward the world's biggest genocidal maniac since AH. Said everything what we needed as confirmation of this. Who is controlling the US policies? Especially their foreign policies. Biden wasn't capable of any rational input when his brain actually did function. It's obvious, whoever is in control of US foreign policy won't even be bothering to mention them to him. What would be the point? We are at a very dangerous point in history. Sadly for us Westerners, we have very weak idealogs running our countries. Who do not serve their own citizens interests. All by design of course. If there is anyone lucky enough to survive these times. I'm sad to say it won't be those if us in the Western world. The global majority have far superior leaders & it's only their patience that has saved the world up to now. Of course our rulers see this rational way as weakness. In reality it's true strength. My hopes for we the citizens in the West are simple. The Axis of resistence expose the Western forces as a paper tigers not capable of protecting the genocidal maniacs on any level. For the Axis to decimate the psychopaths so badly they're incapable of any responce whatsoever. In doing do showing the paper tiger what it faces if it doesn't start acting rationally. I very much doubt this would happen. But it's the best scenario for me personally.

I don't disagree whatsoever as my newest article details the continuing efforts of the Outlaw US Empire to attain its policy goal of Full Spectrum Dominance--the goal that spawned 911 and the War OF Terror that continues today. There is some historical background that helps us to understand how this came about that goes back to WW1. I wrote the following as my comment to the article b provided today at MoA:

"What the sanctions reveal is the utter absence of democracy in the making of foreign policy within the entire West as the forces of order have returned to the "old diplomacy" while the forces of movement have abdicated their opposition. What geopolitics has returned to is the pre-WW1 Era but without any substantial, concentrated resistance to policy from any political direction, although there are some small efforts to revive the forces of movement, which is coming from what was once seen as the ideological Right. What we're seeing is the Liberal Dictatorship driving the folly of war against Russia and all others who won't submit. The maps b provided show well the fracture of the world into two blocs, which the Outlaw US Empire is constantly trying to alter with the recent color coup in Bangladesh, the failed attempt in Thailand, and the continual destabilization of Myanmar.

"The big problem within Europe for years is the subordination of national sovereignty to the EU/NATO arm of the Liberal Dictatorship where no public participation in the making of foreign policy is allowed. The only way the situation will change is if the forces of movement can regain power within their nations and vote to leave the Liberal Dictatorship--Orban's efforts are commendable but not sufficient. The New Diplomacy that emerged 100+ years ago must be reborn if Europe is to have a decent future free from a Dictatorship that differs little from Hitler's."

Where we stand today comparatively time-wise is 1915-16 as the forces of movement are beginning to gather strength but have yet to completely understand what must be done to save the situation in Europe and globally.

Observations about Israeli nukes, U.S.’ prime achievement in managed proliferation.

Most anything worth destroying in South Lebanon is buried and hardened. Israel does not have the bunker blasters at kilotonnage to dent Hezbollah. If they tried the radioactive dust plumes would devastate Asia to the South China Sea.

Similar for Iran.

That leaves the Zionist nukes role to create 100 of thousands of martyr in short times.

Maybe US should disarm their Zionists.

JFK allegedly tried, or tried to prevent them from arming. They've only increased their stranglehold on US politics and geostrategy, not to mention economics in the time since. And then there's the "Samson Option" or is it "Doctrine"? Would it really surprise anyone to see Israel unleash nukes on Rome or Paris if the Zionist occupying entity 'legitimately' faced an existential crisis? It wouldn't surprise me, but maybe I'm just a far too educated cynic.

You mention a good point that nuclear vengeance by Zionists would likely be aimed at Europe, but EU elites seem unconcerned about that threat.

I'm really only speculating here now, but maybe it has to do with just how vassalized Europe has become to the US. They probably think that as long as the US will simultaneously rein the Israelis in and commit our own forces to its defense, there won't be a need to consider the deeper evils like the Samson Option that have been openly spoken & written by members and spokesmen of the Zionist terror regime. I truly think we're in uncharted waters here. Israelis are fleeing the country in droves. Percentage wise it's much greater than Ukrainians in the past 4 years. I wish we lived in far less interesting times.

Edit: And yeah considering how small Israel's geographic footprint is, and how "smart" the Ashkenazi occupiers are, would they rather risk actual radioactive blowback from dropping nuclear devices in the Levant or Iraq/Egypt - or - on far away lands like the EU? Mmmmm...one has to wonder.

The EU elites live in cuckoo land and believe that because they supported the ZioNazis in their genocide, the latter love and respect them and would never do anything evil against them, incl. the use of nukes.

Instead, the ZioNazi scum managed to convince Europe that Iran is ready to nuke them.

You have a very pertinent question! What would the Zios do with their nuclear weapons?

My guess is that they would first blow up some secondary, symbolic target (like a Resistance base in the Syrian desert??) and afterwards do the nuclear blackmail move, like: "Euros! You have seen that we are mf crazy!! If you don't help us prevail, the next one will arrive to an European capital!".

the Holocaust isn't just a psyops that later became a founding myth for Zionists. the Holocaust is how Zionists imagine what the goyim and 'grass' to be mowed would do if they behaved just as they themselves would. when your heart is filled with hate for all those untermensch, the vengeance you imagine they would exact from is utterly terrible and frightening. in that sense, you could say Israelis fear Palestinians not just because they see them as 'terrorists' but precisely for what Israel has done to them. if I did THAT to you, how could I not be fear your sadistic reprisal?

I strongly think that zionists are behind nazism; the MO and the philosophy behind both regimes are the same. Zionists do not mind sacrificing their own people as long as it serves a greater cause (being given a land) and it allows them to raise money and gain control,

I've seen brief references to this very thing, that the Nazis got many ideas from zionist writings. I never did a deep enough dive to find out whether it's true but it seems entirely plausible to me.

As for zionists' willingness to sacrifice their own people, I'm not convinced they see those they sacrifice as their own people. Certainly they didn't see the European Jews that way that they gave the Nazis permission to destroy in exchange for being allowed to expatriate to Palestine along with their assets.

No one's mentioned Class. The upper class is what envisioned and designed Zionism. And the upper class got the British to proclaim Balfour and the Mandate. I'll stop there because I don't know much further about Zionist Class issues beyond that point. But I'm certain they're a factor.

Ah, Medvedev, can't argue with his position. Any dual nationals residing in the zionist state, in my opinion they're traitors. As you've observed the whole place is filled with outright genocidal nazis, so again they're beyond consideration.

The collective west is so delusional there's an incapacity to deal with or understand truth. I think we're at the point where the global majority should move beyond considering options and take the initiative. It's the collapse of the elite's debt based wealth that will get their attention. Ditto western populations experiencing material privation.

At the moment there's UK scenario, problem, reaction, solution (more controls), but for things to spin beyond their "management capacity" a completely broken supply system would snap the system. Besides it looks as if the financial ponzi has moved outside the bounds where interventions will hold back a flood.

Within the Outlaw US Empire, the crisis is in commercial real estate, which was once a very low risk sector for bank loans, that’s been unended since Covid and the move to telecommuting, and we’ve already seen why banks are under treat [THREAT] from rising interest rates that’s caused the market value of bonds drop steeply causing some banks to go under due to bank runs by big depositors aware of such balance sheet frailty.

The Sputnik quotes on G7 monetary fiscal morass is spot on! US economic data is suspect, to elect Harris, Biden before he was outed.

Axios today revealed US Treasury has quietly sold more short term debt than since the Covid cash explosion. This was to get US mortgage rates down below 7% for Harris. 6.4% last Friday.

Today may be the end of the great speculation that U.S. can print infinite fiat dollars. It needs to drop a lot more than 2 or 3%.

Zionism always necessitated ethnic cleansing, and it was done by violence and provocations from the time leading up to the formation of modern Israel. Also under the cover of a long and successful PR campaign - now undone.

But the degree, scale, and openness of the sadism we now witness in the past few months ... something new.

I've let go my firm belief in Godwin's Law of the Internet - at least since the US started bankrolling at scale the Ukrainian Bandera Nazi-revival franchise. Still, the observation about what it does to the blood pressure remains. At some point reasoned discourse shuts down. Becomes less effective rhetoric, too. It takes some effort to stop this happening.

What we see today is its own phenomenon, a mirror image to 1940s Germany. As Naziism was unique to a time and place, this too deserves its own name.

I don't think your comparison of zionism to nazism is painting with too broad a brush, they clearly have a similar root basis: a superior, master race with everyone else classified as subhuman so you can do whatever you want to them with impunity. Non-zionist Jews are no doubt treated as apostates though whether they could justify torturing and murdering them is anyone's guess.

I saw a tweet reporting this, no source provided; any idea whether it's true? I wouldn't see such moves on the part of Jordan and Egypt as a softening attitude toward the Palestinians' plight but it might make sense in terms of self-preservation.

- Jordan informed Iran that it will not allow Israel to use its airspace like the previous time.

- Egypt announces that it will not intercept any projectile launched from Yemen towards Israel.

- Saudi Arabia has informed Iran that it will not allow its missiles or those of Yemen to fly through its airspace.

I think Israel is on the brink of sowing a wind that will reap a whirlwind, not just for them but all their enablers and apologists. Unfortunately, many innocents will suffer as well.
