Are You Ready for the Third World War?
The United States — the world’s dominant superpower — is actually lying on its deathbed.
For many years, the US was a good friend around the world. After the Second World War it opened up its arms to freedom. Former US President, Ronald Regan notoriously said to the world, ‘tear down this wall‘ from West Berlin.
Years later on, Germany was reunited. Communism failed and capitalism exploded.
US geopolitical, economic, monetary, and military power had been completely unchallenged. And it would stay that way for years.
Unfortunately, the times have changed.
The US economy is weakening. Its debt amounts are high. And its interest rates are hovering around historical lows.
Soon, within this decade, the united states will no longer hold the reserve forex status. And this means that substantial changes are on the horizon…
The first change will be geopolitical
It’s really unfortunate which US politicians don’t pay attention to their founding fathers. George Washington said in 1796 at his farewell speech:
‘The excellent rule of conduct for all of us in regard to foreign nations is within extending our commercial relations, to have with them as little political connection as possible. So far as we’ve already formed engagements, allow them to be fulfilled with perfect good faith. Here let us stop.‘
Of course, the politics religion of?US The president — and most of the?political course?– is that it’s America’s?ethical duty?to be involved in additional nations’ business.
Today, the US remains the planet’s leading military power. But its dominance is rapidly becoming chipped away. It’s ‘my method or the highway’ attitude has discouraged many nations. Especially nations in the Middle East…
Historically, US participation in the Middle East has ended within disaster. The past year has proven no different…
In the last 12 months, All of us forces have conducted over 7,000 airstrikes in Iraq and Syria. The official mission is to wipe out Islamic State (IS).
Awkwardly, this particular hasn’t happened.
Instead, US airstrikes possess caused more harm than good. With bombs and missiles flying everywhere, the actual Syrian refugee crisis was born — a situation that is gone from bad to worse.
Unfortunately, there’s been no official response to this humanitarian turmoil. Other than to keep bombing Syria, that is…
And no doubt, this action will lead to much more chaos.
Especially now that Russian warplanes are involved in Syria.
Russia started bombing Islamic State on 30 September. And while US authorities have accused Moscow of acting inappropriately, it only took the actual Russians 24 hours to do what they couldn’t. At least according to Euro Major General Igor Konashenkov, as reported by RT:
‘Our flight handling group over the past day offers destroyed two militant command centers, 29 field camps, 23 fortified facilities and several troop positions with military hardware.‘
There’s just one goal in Syria…
The US really wants to topple Syrian President Bashar Hafez al-Assad. This plan won’t change. The US wants to set up its own puppet politician in Syria. Other Western leaders have climbed aboard with this policy.
And — surprise — the actual mainstream media is backing the official political story. A tale that accuses Assad of attacking their own citizens with chemical weaponry.
That’s despite the fact that there’s no proof that this ever happened. The real proof points towards a terrorist attack. This is why Russia, a vital ally of Assad, along with The far east have opposed military intervention inside Syria.
With this barrier in place, Barrack Obama has had no choice but to enforce their ‘no boots on the ground’ policy. Of course, this policy goes against the wants of the US government — and Obama himself. In time, there’s no doubt in my mind that it will change.
In the actual meantime, there’s been no shortage of tough talk by Traditional western leaders. And to stir the pot, US officials happen to be forced to come up with other ideas. Such as spending nearly US$500 zillion training Syrian rebels to fight IS.
Unfortunately, this didn’t turn out as planned.
General Lloyd Austin, who leads the US military’utes Central Command, recently told the US Senate Armed Services Committee:?‘The [number of Syrian rebels] that are in the fight, we are talking four or five.’
What an absolute things up. For the price of fifty percent a billion US dollars, you will find ‘four or five‘ Syrian rebels fighting Islamic State.
Following the big amount of attention on this bad policy, and Russia’s effective army operation, the US recently hanging this program.
Instead, it will airdrop ammunition in the middle of the desert. And it simply dropped 50 tonnes associated with ammo out of the sky. (Which you hope gets in the hands of the right people.)
According to the Whitehouse, it was an effective mission. Anti-Islamic State coalition spokesman Colonel Steve Warren told the ABC:
‘[The airdrop reached] Syrian Arab-speaking groups whose leaders properly were vetted by the United States and have been fighting to get rid of ISIL‘.
Don’t blink an eye…
While I’m not sure what will happen next, one truth is guaranteed — this story isn’t over.
In fact, it’s likely that the actual worst is yet to come.
Times are changing. The old framework in the world — a system dominated by the federal government, US banks, and the All of us dollar — is coming to an end.
The All of us Empire and economy are declining. If history is actually reliable, their ‘leaders’ will do whatever needs doing to stay in power.
And typically, when an economy turns down politicians march their people off to war. I don’t want a world war to happen any more than you need to do, we’re talking about politicians that are detached from the modern day globe.
I’ll be talking about this story in more depth next week in Resource Speculator. There are fortunes to be made for those who understand these trends and therefore are able to get out in front of them. I’ll recommend one or two Aussie stocks that you can use to do just that. When this war takes a change for the worse, these companies ought to profit immensely.
If you want to know much more, you can start here.
