I'll delay the next one till the morning of the 7th (Middle-Eastern time). I REALLY have to catch up on my beauty sleep. Well, not sure if it's going to work, but I need the nap 😂
These updates / reports have been absolutely excellent. Your writing style and ability to convey the information with wit and a little humour really resonates with me.. top notch journalism!
"Israeli military censorship laws make it nearly impossible to independently verify anything. Bahrain is arresting people for filming missile impacts. The only country in this conflict with a functioning free press is... Iran?"
Wars have a way of turning everything on its head. They also reveal what each government is like at its core, stripped of all the political niceties. Some governments maintain their humanity. Many do not.
I made a joke the other day that we could print $ (ship insurance) but not Captains and Crew. Seems to check out because I am not hearing any positive news about the Strait being reopened anytime soon.
It’s looking more and more like Iran is in the drivers seat now. I mean that in ONLY ONE fashion. They should be able to keep this up indefinitely. I keep hearing pundits pleading Trump to pull out. Well, he can’t.
We have committed what some would call war atrocities in these few short days. Combine that with our inability to keep to our promises and I don’t see Iran letting us go.
We can’t just abscond because if we do our little Zionist buddy is really going to catch hell. God knows they probably deserve it (JOKING). But it’s not just them, the Gulf States and the entire Global Economy has become Iran’s hostage at this point.
Troubling times ahead Gents. Global recession within 2 months IMHO. 🤷♂️
First, and most important to me, market manipulation. Irans war will end one day and then we will have Turkeys war, Pakistans war, Cubas war, Indias war, and so on... All being the consequence of the same structural reallty: yields decline, capital shortages, corporate consolidation, banking cartels, purchasing power collapse, currenct debasement, financial virtuality... When there are no beers left in their fridge, Americans grab yours. These are epochal factors, decade long processes going on at least since Breton Woods.
According to David Rogers Webb, the stock market is a financial pool, where the stock holder doesnt actually own the stock but has a claim right on it. Coincidentally, the company lenders have a superior right on it.
My point is that we know nothing about how those market manipulations are carried out. Its just an off the radar topic, like many more. I suspect the Big 4 consultant cartel: Deloitte, PWC, EY and... missing one, are primarily engaged in accountancy fraud for decades now. And the thousands of employeed of JP Morgan, HKBC, USB, Chase Manhattan, Barclays, Lloyds and the rest of what we call the banking cartel, are surely not paid to stay idle in office. How they do it? What are the exact pulls and levers they operate, we dont know.
That belong to the dark side of history yet, just like JFK, 9/11 and on. If you think about it, we are living tremendously dark times, where the real reality is hidden behing multiple covering layers, and the published reality is manufactured by a specific industry, call it MSM, Hollywood, Internet or just the reality manufacturing complex. These two realities are increasingly dissociated.
Concerning the war.
Trump prodigiously keeps afloat, even if looking like a soft doll now. I reckon that, in reality 1, the dark reality, many sold out pawns are starting to betray him or thinking in doing so, just like Gaetz or MTG did months ago, correctly reading the writing on the wall. Now he is paying a lot of money to the legions of Rumble operatives he controls, the crazy fanatical business evangelical pastors, the media...
My bet is his team is thinking about linking the war to the mid terms, if they can resist the pressure from the arabs or even Israel to stop the whole thing. Dubai may well cease to exist as a thing.
Once again, Brian Berletic. This is Americas war, not Israels. This is long term strategy in the war against China.
The kurds: They will obey. They are captured.
Ukraine: Big loser. Orban has threatened force. The EU is backing off. Trump desperately needs a truce. If I hadnt been surprised multiple times about Zelenskys resilience, I would bet he is toast in a few weeks.
The arabs: Big losers. The insurance, the investment, the finance, Dubai, the bases. Thats not going to be fixed in a couple of years, at best.
China: Big winner. Japan and South Korea, two American colonies, are running out of oil and the maritime traffic will not be reestablished in weeks, even if the war stops tomorrow.
India: Big loser.
Russia: Big winner. Putin will never sign a cease fire in Ukraine now. The goals of the operation wont stop in Donbass now and will aim Odessa directly. Once Zaparozhye is taken, the road to Odessa will be open.
Umm, water? I missed this important aspect No.1 - thank you for the pointer. I have previously noted:
The Pacific Institute’s data are categorised based on the use, impact or effect that water has within a conflict and can be subdivided into three main groups.
The first is termed “casualty” and describes the loss of water resources or systems due to becoming intentional or incidental targets of violence.
The second is defined as a “weapon”, where water resources or systems are used as an instrument or weapon in a violent conflict.
The third and final group falls under “trigger”, which covers conflicts that are directly over the control of water. In this case, economic or physical access to water, or the event of water scarcity, have triggered violence.
As the chart clearly illustrates, the frequency of water conflicts is growing exponentially.
Such great commentary thank you! More illuminating and to the point than the borbon & cigar stained insider Capital Michief! Epic work please keep it up 💪
I like this content and some of the links given my way. It's tricky figuring out what will happen next. A pal of mine ventured this scenario. With us (US) spread a bit thin, what if China made a move on Taiwan, or Russia did something similar? Are we that close to WW3?! 😧
However, this much I do know. The 3 Mar slaughter was 60-65% as bad as 30 Jan, and WORSE than 5, 12 Feb. I had a strong past week, all undone (and then some) by 3 Mar. The negative asymmetry - not to mention non-normal "fat tails" - is crypto like. 🙃
I also know this - anybody that doesn't think these markets aren't manipulated isn't playing with a full deck !
As I stated somewhere else before: China ain't going to move onto Taiwan. Unless they need a distraction. Might happen, but I think they'll prefer to annex it the way they did with HK.
I am writing tomorrow about China/Taiwan, John: "Analysts are of the opinion that China could take this opportunity to attack Taiwan. As always they are misreading China's intentions. Jerry (who lives in China) says: "China could have taken Taiwan back many times over the last 20 years, it hasn’t - China has constantly and consistently said it will wait and a war halfway around the world will not change that even if, and I’m being hypothetical here, the US military is destroyed and unable to protect even its own shore, China will still not attack Taiwan. (Video at end of article)."
yep, as I have been saying. Only caveat: if internal discontent gets too big, it will attack. Governments invariable do find external release valves for their troubles.
Your Iran coverage is the one I look the most forward to.

lol you beat me to it. This is great
Likewise omg :-)
I'm glad most of the Kurds decline to get sucker punched a third time.
It sucks being Kurdish.
I really didn't think the Kurds were that bright. Glad I'm wrong.
Amazing the info you are picking up!
Does anyone else get the feeling that the Iranians have studied Sun Tzu, while in the Pentagon they're consulting Marvel comics?
🥰 Love it!
Kaja is, why not the Trump administration 😁

Hopefully no one falls for any false flags. So far it looks like everyone in the region knows Israel's playbook.
Can you imagine the world’s reaction if another country were to indiscriminately carpet bomb another country and kill civilians??
Can you imagine the USA’s reaction if another country penetrated its defences and took out its leader? (And his family)
Half would rage and half cheer? Because it's just reality TV for Americans
Law of Jungle. Also reminds me of Animal Farm, although it is ironic since that country is not Cxxxxxist.
Speaking of animals: I do prefer Zootopia 😉 if we're deciding where the world will have to go towards...
Lmao. 🤣

From what you’re reporting, it really does sound like there’s an entity trying to bring in more participants to this non war war
💯! I'm relatively certain about that.
Yeah but at least Iran isn’t going to get a nuclear weapon so it will all be worth it 🙄/s
If it'd be up to me, I'd start to do some nuclear bomb tests. You know. To tell them: back off.
Chickens coming home to roost fir the USA

I would say the Kurds suffer from battered ally syndrome. This time they mean it when the US tells us they love us, what could go wrong.
The Kurds realized what it is to be an "ally". Now let's see if the Europeans do.
Fool me once, shame on you.
Fool me twice, shame on me.
Fool me thrice, "get the fuck outta here"? 🤣
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 that's it!
