➡ This video discusses the escalating tensions of World War III, focusing on the economic impacts. The price of gold has hit a new high, indicating a potential market crash. The video also highlights the ongoing trade war between the U.S. and China, with tariffs causing a significant increase in the cost of goods. The presenter warns of potential economic hardship and advises viewers to prepare for what’s coming.
➡ The dollar’s value is decreasing due to an increase in the money supply, causing gold prices to rise. China has stopped importing natural gas from the U.S., leaving billions of dollars in contracts in limbo. Meanwhile, China is importing large amounts of oil from Iran. The U.S. is positioning itself for a confrontation with China, including military presence in the Panama Canal. There are also ongoing negotiations with Iran about their nuclear program, but the outcome is uncertain.
➡ The U.S. is planning to revive the old JCPOA agreement with Iran, which could lead to a potential conflict. This is due to Iran’s economic instability and the U.S.’s lack of interest in ensuring China’s oil supply from Iran. The situation is further complicated by Israel’s readiness to strike Iran, regardless of U.S. support. The outcome of these tensions is uncertain, with possibilities ranging from a full-blown war to a continued pressure campaign against Iran.
➡ The text discusses three potential scenarios for conflict with Iran, including full-scale war, targeted airstrikes and ground operations, and limited strikes on nuclear sites. It also mentions the need for a large anti-Iran coalition, including European and Middle Eastern countries. The text also discusses tensions in Europe, particularly in Estonia and Ukraine, with the latter blocking bank access for those violating mobilization rules. Lastly, it mentions concerns about NATO’s intentions in Romania, where the world’s largest military base is being built.
➡ The US dollar is falling and treasury bonds are spiking due to China imposing high tariffs on American goods. This has led to a surge in gold prices, indicating a potential market crash. Meanwhile, the value of companies has declined due to inflation. Lastly, there are claims of secret weapons and potential revelations about the cause of autism’s increase.

World War III breaking news update. What a wild week it was. Oh boy. Get ready. We got a big video, 14 pages of compendious information about the state of things around the world. You’re not going to get this anywhere else. My editors are saying, why don’t you tell them to like and subscribe at the beginning of the video. And I’m like, ah, messes with my flow. But there you go. Do that if you want to do that if you want to support the channel, blah, blah, blah. Now let’s get right down to business because time is tight.

Gold hit another new all time high. $3,250, thank you very much. Gold’s been telling you that the market crash has been coming for a long time now. The market kind of ticked upwards. This is going to be ephemeral at best. It’s not going to last long. But hey, if you want to sit at the casino and keep putting coins in the slot machine, that’s on you. Just remember the house always wins. Now first we’re going to talk about China, then we’re going to talk about Iran. Then we’re going to talk about the Ukraine. Then we’re going to talk about the markets.

Then we’re going to talk about Trump and some special weaponry. All right, so here’s the skinny on China. World War three has begun, if you haven’t realized that already. They’re selling U.S. treasuries, they’re switching them for gold and other currencies. It is on. Okay? They’re banning Hollywood movies. The tick tock thing appears to be dead in the water. Not going to happen. They’re already talking about delisting companies off the New York Stock Exchange. There are very few cargo ships currently. I shouldn’t say very few, but a lot less cargo ships being loaded. A large number of ships and cargo planes suspend services on China US Routes.

China and the United States do nearly a trillion dollars in trade. Okay? Now because of these 150% tariffs, did I mention that they upped it to 150% and the Chinese retaliated to 125%, I’m assuming, plus the initial 20% on specific goods, that will bring them up to about 145% on specific goods. But the United States is a blanket 150% tariff. Everything that says made in China in your home could potentially go up 75% if these tariffs hold. Why 75%? Because the tariff is on the wholesale or manufactured landed cost of the goods. All this stuff you see behind Me here, a lot of it, and I’m not ashamed to say is made in China.

Although we try to source. We got Canada jackets, we got fur only made in Saskatchewan. We got anything you can get that’s of highest quality. We have in Scandinavian axes, United States steel arms, different types of body armor, things like that. But a lot of good quality stuff comes from China because China will make you anything depending on how much you want to pay. It’s the whole cheap Chinese product stereotype that only emerged because we as North Americans wanted cheap Chinese goods. Now that that disclaimer is out of the way, I have to say that the prices that I am seeing from my distributors lately, I’m looking at it and I’m like, this can’t be true.

How are we going to continue to do business? Well, the only way you can continue to do business is to raise the prices. I don’t know how people are surviving out there at this point in time. Like if you’re a low to middle income earner, I mean, it must be absolutely devastating when you go to the grocery store and you see your bill when you get to the till because these prices are just outrageous. Discretionary spending is going to grind to a halt. Most people are only paying the minimum amount on their credit cards. And guys, the goods are going to stop flowing.

And what that means is that if and when they do start flowing again, there’s not only going to be bottlenecks, but there’s also going to be a massive tariff that is going to linger and that’s going to increase the price of all goods. People don’t understand what’s coming. You’re going to go to Walmart in the not too distant future if this thing persists, which it appears as though it may, and there’s going to be empty shelves, empty shelves. Now they’re going to fluff it up in the same way they did during COVID They’re going to put up some signs or something to make it look like they did in that North Korea.

North Korea was busted doing. Or was that just in the movie? I can’t remember, but that’s what you can expect. Okay? So I’m telling you from a person who handles the gear, thousands of products that I bring in around the world. I don’t do that drop shipping business where that get rich quick bro type stuff. I want to make sure that I have the stuff in house and I send it directly to you. That’s how we’ve done it for years. And I can tell you as a middleman in the industry. And we also manufacture a few products of our own as well here in Canada, I should say.

I can tell you that the prices that I’m seeing right now are scary. For example, body armor. If I want to bring this stuff in to the United States, it’s now a 25% tariff. Okay? That means we have to raise our prices 25% on all of that stuff. Now, there are some domestic manufacturers that we’re going to be looking into. But I did not want to go off on this channel tangent. I just want to say, my friends, prices are only going to get worse. Okay? We’re entering a stagflationary period which is really going to break a lot of people mentally.

So you got to be prepared for what’s coming. Now, of course, there’s always opportunity at times like these, but I have a feeling that we might be at the end of our road here as a civilization, as you all know. So this might be the final opportunity you have. I hope not. But I mean, that’s why we prep. Now they’re delisting companies on the N. NYC stock exchange. They are. The cargo ships are being halted because either people are just not buying stuff because they don’t know if they’re going to be able to afford the tariff.

This is going to cause companies to go bust. If they have to put that money up front, it’s going to add to their debt load, it’s going to reduce their margins, going to cause a lot of pain. Okay? And there will be comeuppance for North America as a result of posing these tariffs on China. Mark my words. We have massive military exercises continuing around the Taiwan Strait that could become real at any moment. Remember the old adage, there are no military exercises, only World War Three disguises. We have 150 Chinese nationals fighting for Russia, according to the Ukrainians.

Well, what did you expect was going to happen? This is World War iii. Of course we’re going to see Chinese, North Korean fighting alongside the Russians when you have all these sheep dip NATO soldiers fighting for the Ukrainians. So of course that’s going to happen. Is this really a surprise to anybody that China is subsidizing and assisting the Russians by proxy, if anything? And in fact Russia or China, I should say, is making the drones for a lot of Ukraine. I think 35% of Ukraine’s drones that they’re using for frontline operations can be traced back to China in some way, shape or form.

So they’re kind of playing both sides of the fence. Kind of like the U. S was in World War II, well before they got involved. But ultimately, the Chinese are going to fall on the side of the Russians. I’m not sure how my focus is doing here. It’s his first time I’ve done the video from this perspective. Okay. They’re also stopping rare earth exports. Trump, in a very petulant manner, is saying that the Xi Jinping, the leader of China, needs to call him first. And so really, it’s a game of chicken. It’s a game of who’s going to call who first.

Now, the Chinese, to their benefit, are setting less of a tariff than the Americans are, at least on paper. Right now people are seeing 125% in the US media, but that doesn’t tack on the original 20, 20%. So the United States then ostensibly is applying a greater tariff to China. So some people might view this as China’s capitulation, but I can tell you right now, unequivocally, the Chinese are in no way, shape or form ready to relent. The Chinese don’t care. Okay? The Chinese economy, around 15% of it, relies on U.S. exports. Now, that’s a large amount.

But these are the Chinese, okay? And they’ve built out all the industry and infrastructure. They built the Belt and Road initiative. They’re having all sorts of relationships with the BRICS nations. And the more countries that we isolate, the greater trading partners that the. The. Any goods that have been displaced from the American economy, those can be rerouted somewhere else. So China doesn’t give an F. And that’s why they’re selling U.S. treasuries. I think they have around a $750 billion worth. That’s going to dilute the money supply. And that’s why the dollar is tanking and why gold is skyrocketing to 30, 32, 50.

Wow. Who could have told you? Who could have seen that coming? Who’s been telling you every single day? And 4,000. We’re gonna blow past 4,000. It’s sad to say, but you know what it really means? It means that your dollar ain’t worth. That’s what it means. Everybody thinks, oh, I’m getting a raise at work. Look, I got this new windfall. No, no, the money is worthless. It’s worthless. Go to the grocery store. What does it buy you? It’s telling you, you think it’s going to get better. You think prices are going to come down. Not in our generation.

Not unless AI and Skynet come and build some automated factories that, that have really good nano dexterity. Is this thing going out of focus or is that just my eyes going on? It seems like every time I look away from it and I look back, it’s out of focus anyways. It’s just freaking hot. I shouldn’t have set the aperture so low. All right, let’s keep going here. China has also banned imports. They’ve halted all liquefied natural gas imports from the United States. This leaves tankers in limbo with billions of dollars in contracts. Incredible. Okay? This is just incredible what is happening right now.

It’s unbelievable. China is also importing record amounts of oil from guess where? Iran. Okay? They know what’s coming. The Chinese are the biggest stockpilers in the world. They’re the biggest preppers in the world. We have more in common with the axis of evil as preppers than pretty much any western country who is not preparing for their population. They’re not building bunkers. They’re not building strategic stockpiles of different things that you might need in an emergency. They’re not advising their population. They’re not advising a culture of preparedness. They’re not doing anything. They’re not building out solar renewable energy infrastructure in such case of a breakdown in the global supply chain and the distribution of energy.

They’re not doing any of that. So why is it that the government like Mark Carney, who is slated now to become our next prime minister. Because for some reason either the polls are rigged or Canadians are really stupid. And yes, that’s a 100% endorsement for the lesser of two evils. Pierre Poliev. He says that his, one of his first things that he’s going to do is come and try to confiscate all the guns. Okay? That’s what he’s saying, right? In the same way they want to confiscate other sovereign nations capability to create nuclear weapons. Understand that this is a centralized global control consortium and they know their time is running out.

They want to basically put everybody on blast. And if they ain’t going for somebody else, they’re coming for you. When they have nobody to turn the guns on outside our borders, they’re going to turn those guns on us. So that is why we as preppers take things into our own hands. And we try to be self responsible. We try to teach self reliance. Because they ain’t teaching these kids anything in the damn schools. The kids are getting dumb. Panama Canal. They have now signed agreements with the United States ensuring a military presence in the panic. Panama Canal.

That means that Chinese ships that want to pass through there could potentially be interdicted by said troops. And if China wanted to send military ships, or obviously they’re going to now have to go all the way around to South America. So this was a big power play by the United States, who is positioning themselves for a direct confrontation with China. Troops returning to former bases to counter Chinese influence that grew under previous administrations. This is why there’s talk about potentially bringing back troops from Eastern Europe, which I actually think are likely going to be rerouted to the Middle East.

The United States will be allowed to deploy troops to several. Panama. Panamanian. That’s a word to say, isn’t it? Panamanian. Jesus. Panamanian. Really? That’s a word. Panamanian. Wow. Couldn’t they say, like, Panama m. No, I guess that wouldn’t make sense. Panama. Panama mania. And control bases and security facilities along the Panama Canal for training exercises and other activities. All right, now the Iran requisition. Here we go. Steve Witkoff just took off from Russia. He had a meeting with Vladimir Putin. Okay. And now Witkoff is heading to Iran. Of course, Witkoff’s a hardline Zionist, just like all these guys.

Is it any surprise that he literally took a flight from Russia to Oman? Did I say Iran by accident to Oman to engage in what the White House claims are direct talks. However, the Iranians are claiming, no, we’re going to pass love letters from room to room or something like that. However, that sort of mediation typically works in those types of indirect negotiations. But that is what is going to happen tomorrow, and that is going to determine. So we say, unless this is all just for the cameras and for public consumption, which I’m leaning towards, it probably is, you’re not moving that much military equipment into the region as they’re doing right now.

You can see. Well, I guess you can’t see because my printer is apparently pooch. The Carl Vinson and the Harry S. Truman are currently. The Carl Vinson, I should add, is right outside of Oman. You can’t see it on that map, but that’s where they’re going to meet. That’s a sign. Okay, you have all the Stealth bombers ready to go. They put all of these chips into position before going to the bargaining table, when really all this is is. And all it possibly could be in any meaningful capacity is the setting up a framework for possible future negotiations.

But I’m going to tell you why it’s not going to work. Okay. Now, Witkoff is apparently about to give the Iranians an ultimatum and hoping that they genuflect he is going to be demanding that they dismantle their entire nuclear program. Okay, now, there’s different points of view. Some say no. They’re just going to ask the Iranians. I always say Ukrainians. I hope I didn’t make that error so far. But they’re going to ask the Iranians in to basically dismantle their entire nuclear program or dismantle enough of it. That would take them like five years to build a nuclear weapon.

We’re going to be talking to people next week who think that this is all theater and that the Iranians already have nuclear weapons and the system’s able to deploy said nuclear weapons. And of course, if that is the case, and if Iran was facing existential defeat, then they would drop a nuke on Dimona, they would drop one on Tel Aviv and a few other places in Israel. So if that actually is the case, and perhaps what’s going to come out of these meetings tomorrow is the realization by the United States that, oh, shit, they do have nuclear weapons.

And if they do have nuclear weapons, what’s the US Going to do? Because they’re going to fire off those nuclear weapons before the US can destroy said nuclear weapons. And no matter what anybody is telling you right now, there is no way that the United States is going to be able to incapacitate the Iranian missile program, nuclear program or military. It’s going to be the farthest thing from the quickest defeat. Did you know that only 25% of Hamas tunnel networks have actually been destroyed since the beginning of that conflict? In fact, based on what I’m hearing, they’ve completely rearmed themselves because there’s so many passageways between Egypt and the.

The city of Rafah that they’re rearmed and they’re. They’re back to their manpower before October 7th. So you seriously think that a cavernous place like Iran that is 4,000 times the size has subterranean bunkers that are 500 meters deep below rock in which even their best GBU 57 bomb can only penetrate 5 to 7 meters of rock? Yeah, maybe 100 meters of soil. Nice, soft, smooth, sandy soil. We’re not talking about soil in Iraq. It is rock, okay? And for that reason, there is the odds of them being able to execute that shock and awe type scenario on Iran, and it actually being impactful and in not potentially imperiling the entirety of Israel is slim to none.

So whatever they’re going to do, it has to be asymmetric. It is going to be from the inside out. It’s going to be some sort of hit job, some sort of assassination, probably coupled with some airstrikes for good measure, for good optics. Now, Mohammed Largiani, the top advisor to comedy, who is the ayatollah, says we see no path is this thing. I really. I don’t know, maybe my eyes are just deceiving me here. If it is, I apologize. If it’s folks, and you don’t have to look at me, just listen to what I’m saying. We see no path forward in the Amman negotiations.

We are not going to scale back our nuclear activities. There’s a significant gap between Iran’s demands and those of the United States. We don’t see a clear outcome emerging from these negotiations. Now, some people are saying that there might be some superfluous concessions made by the Iranians in that the United States is going to essentially re resurrect the old JCPOA agreement so that Trump can say that he’s the one who made the agreement, even though it’s going to be the exact same thing with a few little boilerplate points here and there. But it’s looking like this is the real deal.

As I’ve said for a long time, they want a war with Iran. This is their only opportunity. Oil is really low at this point in time. They just had a talk with Russia, which I presume was trying to ensure that Russia was going to participate in a limited fashion or try to gauge exactly how much Russia is going to participate. And maybe the Oman thing is just a front and maybe Vladimir Putin is the actual mediator on this and that’s what Witkoff went there for. It’s really hard to say at this point in time. All we can do is wait for the markets to open on Monday.

But it’s no surprise to me that they do these things on Saturday because if it’s a complete disaster and had they had it in the middle of the week, well, in this current environment, that could be very bad. Right now, Trump is celebrating the fact that the purchasing. What is it not the, not the cpp, Is it the ppp? I can’t remember the. The wholesale distributor pricing for things, for commodities. The inflation rate is actually down significantly since last year. And the only reason why that is is because of oil. Now, if oil spikes, that thing is going much higher, especially considering all the goods and services are going to be going up because of the tariff and sanction dispute.

And this right here, this Iranian situation, remember, it’s all about China, okay? This is China’s where they get a Lot of their oil from. They do essentially need, I’m reluctant to say need, Iranian oil. I mean, if all Iranian oil was taken off the market, the Chinese have amassed a significant strategic reserve of oil. Nonetheless, it would definitely impact them. And now that the US has no real vested interest in ensuring that the Chinese get that oil so they can manufacture cheap goods for the American consumer, well, they’re not going to care. And so, like I said, this is really the best time to go for it.

You have the public support, you have the political capital with Trump to go and do it, because MAGA doesn’t care about, you know, the Iranians. In fact, they’re demonized. I don’t know if there’s Persia phobes, whatever you want to call them, abound in that community. It is what it is. You know, there’s a lot of hardline Israeli supporters in that community. Oil’s down, all the weapons are there. The Iranian economy is teetering on the brink of collapse and civil unrest. Their currency is tanking, their markets are tanking, their ships are being tacitly embargoed by the west, and their economy is being heavily sanctioned to the point where they’re, they’re at a breaking point.

Okay? Now, if the United States was smart, they might wait a little longer and continue with this maximum pressure campaign to try to see whether or not the regime will collapse from within. But historically, we’ve seen that that sort of pressure typically doesn’t work, especially when you have such a large militia like the Iranians do, to the tune of around 10 million hardline supporters who will be armed by the regime to maintain the peace within that community. Now, are they going to be able to, Are they going to be able to prevent all of the asymmetrical style attacks like the one that, that happened where the leader of Hamas was assassinated at the inauguration of the Iranian president? I don’t think so, but I think we’re going to see sparks fly either way.

Now, according to the New York Times, Iran actually did buckle. They claim Iran’s supreme leader, Kamani reversed his stance and approved nuclear talks with the US after top officials warned refusal could lead to strikes on Natanz and Fordo nuclear facilities and spark mass civil unrest. I already said the Iranians don’t give a shit about that because they know that those facilities are hardened against this and there’s nothing the United States can do. They can entomb the entranceways into those facilities, but they’re built in such a way that even if you were to blow up the entranceway into the facility and you had some blast wave go through the tunnel.

There’s offshoots inside the facility. They’ve thought of all of that, okay? Just like Hamas, only on a scale which is much, much bigger in terms of the engineering that goes into those tunnels. The Iranians don’t care. And you know, that’s why this is going to be a much trickier situation. This is not Iraq, okay? A lot of people think like Trump saying it’s going to be a one day. This is the guy who said that the war was going to be over in 24 hours. Give me a break. Okay? If he’s saying that the Russian war is going to be over 24 hours and this is going to be one whiz bang, shoot them up campaign that’s only going to last the better part of a day, well, then you can bet that it’s going to last years.

All right, Now Israel is claiming that they’re going to bomb Iran either way. We all know that there’s this enduring acrimony between Israel. Both seem hell bent and it seems embedded in their religious teachings that, you know, you know, this is a Gog and Magog type scenario that needs to unfold for the apocalypse. The grand reveal of the aliens are going to come down, I don’t know. But nonetheless, they believe that this is written in the stars. And what they are saying, according to YT News, which is one of the primary mouthpieces of the Israeli government, they signaled that an alarming, there’s an alarming readiness for strikes against Iran whether or not they have American backing.

Now they say that because they know wherever they go, they’re like a tugboat, okay? And the Americans don’t have any engine in the tank in terms of their agency and the autonomy of their political leadership. It’s largely, you know, led by the nose, it would appear, at least within that theater of conflict by Netanyahu and the Israeli regime. So they know that even if Trump officially explicitly states that he doesn’t support an attack on, on Iran and Israel goes and does it, all Iran has to do is fire back, engage True Promise 3, which will be the massive bombardment of a variety of different Israeli facilities, possibly even the Demona nuclear plant.

And that’s when the United States will use that as cassus belli to go to war. Now remember, it is a war crime to target nuclear facilities according to the Geneva Convention. But we all know that Israel doesn’t shy away just because of something meager like the Geneva Convention. No they’re not going to let that get in the way, are they? We’ve seen that for the last couple years. So of course Iran will have the reserve, the right, although it would still be a war crime, to attack the Dimona nuclear facility. Now an argument can be made and we’re going to have a nuclear physicist in next week to discuss the mitigating effects of the.

The fact that the oil uranium enrichment, if it is in the state that the Iranians claim it’s in, will not be as radiologically contaminating to the environment. But you know, it’s a nuclear facility, you’re bombing it. Probably going to be an environmental disaster of some short, I would imagine. I would not want that stuff in my cornflakes. Iran has six nukes, according to Lindsey Graham. He said this on Fox News. The Iranian now have enough highly enriched uranium to achieve six nuclear bombs. They will use them, he claims. Well, why would they, why would they just start shooting nukes willy nilly? I mean, what purpose would that serve when they know that the United States could just drop city colors with their stealth bombers or they could just launch ICBMs at Iran? Why would Iran do that unless provoked? I mean, Lindsey Graham really thinks he’s speaking to children.

I mean, maybe he is. Maybe people actually believe that. Maybe people believe that the Persian Empire endured for thousands of years only to completely destroy themselves over some. Okay, I’m not buying that. These are the same guys that said Iraq had WMDs and what however many thousands of other lies they’ve told us all throughout the years. All right, now there’s a very good video. I think it’s by Deep Dive Defense. I would encourage you to go and check it out. It’s all about the engineering of the Iranian bunkers. You need to watch that video because they’re going to tell you what the possibilities are.

Now there’s three potential possibilities when it comes to a scenario with a war with Iran and one not mentioned here, which is an ongoing maximum pressure slash hybrid asymmetrical conflict, possibly some sort of insurgency from the inside out out an overthrow and usurpation of the government. Now here we have scenario one. This is full scale war and regime change. This is ultimately what will mission creep our way into. But the objective here is very simple. Total military defeat of Iran, regime change or fragmentation into quasi states. It’s going to require a massive anti Iran coalition. That’s going to of course require the help of Europe.

I’m not so sure Europe is too keen on helping The Americans and Israelis at this point in time, considering all the stuff that is going on with the NATO, intra Naval, NATO saber rattling, the tariffs and what have you. Although that could be something that Trump uses as leverage. Hey, we’ll get rid of the tariffs if you join up in the coalition. And of course they have all the other Middle Eastern countries and they have a lot of weapons stored in Saudi Arabia for this very purpose. The Saudis think that those weapons belong to them, but they need to think again.

This would require multiple navy carrier strike groups. It’s going to require 2000-2500 aircraft. 20002500 aircraft, thousands of cruise missiles, Ground invasion of a nation with 90 million people. That is of course, very mountainous, very challenging terrain. And we’re entering the hot season. Okay, so it is going to get scalding hot. We’re talking about, imagine wearing all of those bd, I mean, people who endured that in Iraq. It’s going to be probably even worse in Iran because that was 20 years ago and it’s a lot hotter there now. Scenario two would be the lesser of evils and that would target the places in question with airstrikes and also involve a ground operation into Kistan.

The objective would be to capture Iran’s oil rich Khuzestan province. Wow, what a surprise to economically cripple Tehran. So essentially go in annex a terr territory with the oil, go and steal the oil that we’re preventing them from selling on the market, which is impoverishing their population. This is going to be in the southwest region of Iran, mostly Sunni Arabs, home to 80% of Iran’s oil and, and gas. Okay. Not the Shiite majority who run the country. The strategy here will be joint US Israeli air strikes, limited ground invasion from Iraq or naval landings via the Persian Gulf.

Some people think that’s more realistic. But the Iranians have a massive army. That’s probably not going to happen. Okay. I just can’t see that happening. If they can’t do that in Yemen yet, they ain’t doing that in Iran. Let’s get real. Scenario three, which I think is probably the most likely scenario, is limited strikes on nuclear sites, presuming that they can destroy all the missile air defense and the radars. The objective would be to destroy Iran’s nuclear program facilities, which I’ve already said is likely impossible. If that stuff’s even there. Okay. If they don’t have, you know, dummy programs elsewhere or that if that’s not just sort of some sort of decoy program.

I mean, we really don’t know because the IAEA has been in there to inspect, but you really don’t know what is happening. And with their relationships with Pakistan, North Korea and the Russians and the Chinese, I mean, anything is possible. They could have nukes already ready to go, ready to fire for all we know, in one of these many missile cities, no ground forces. This is going to be largely surgical in nature and it’s going to be easiest to implement but least effective long term. Now, if this was the case, they would have did that long ago.

That’s the problem. So unfortunately, as much as I’m having an argument with myself right now, but for me, they wouldn’t put all these pieces into place just for that. It’s going to be somewhere in between that and the latter. Ultimately they’re going to have to take control of the country from the inside out because there’s no way you’re going to be able to manage a population of 90 million people by force when you’re military is what, 1 million strong and spread out across the planet. It’s just not going to happen. Okay, Estonia now moving to Europe.

Estonia decided to confiscate a tanker for from Russia Today. On April 10, Estonia passed a law that allowed them to use the use of force against civilian vessels in the maritime zone. Now, I’ve always said that there’s going to be a big war breaking out in the the Baltic Sea as a result of Russia’s shadow fleet being captured and seized by the NATO alliance. And as a result, Russia will ultimately be forced to respond in some way, shape or form either by escorting some of these vessels. And this could be something that plays out over months and years.

But eventually this is going to be a major flashpoint for stuff. So the Estonian Defense Forces have detained the Koala tanker which was headed to US Luga. According to Marine traffic, the Djibouti. Djibouti flagship is anchored off the island of Agna. So this is, you know, being flagged as an African ship. Nonetheless, you know, this is Russian oil that’s in there. So it’s Russian interests that are under threat here. Now, Witkoff is allegedly backing a plan for Russian control of T territory. And let me see if this map turned out. I don’t think it really did.

Not too well anyways. So you can see there’s three portions there. So this portion is the portion that Russia would get. This portion up here would remain under Ukrainian control. And this portion right, right here would be partly controlled by a contingent of NATO troops. Okay. Coalition of the willing, as they call it now. Right now Russia only controls around 42% of Kirstan, 40% of Donetsk, 30% of Zaporizhzhia and 2% of Luhansk. No, that can’t be right. That has to be the proportion of Russian speaking people within those regions. Let’s just scrap that one from the record.

I know those numbers are reflecting of something likely Russian speaking people within the regions or that could be. Oh, you know what that is? You know what that is? That’s Ukrainian. That’s the proportion of those, those oblasts that they control. So they control 40, 42 of Kirsan, 40 of Donetsk, 30 of Zaporizhzhia and 2% of Lugansk. All right, that’s what’s going on now. Witkoff and Keith Kellogg have said, always chuckle inside when I say the word Kellogg just reminds me of cereal when I was a kid watching Saturday morning cartoons. Unfortunately, this pertains to World War three.

He suggested that British and French troops could adopt zones of control in the west of the country as part of a reassurance force that we’ve talked about ad nauseum on the Channel, with Russia’s army in the occupied east. Between them there would be a demilitarized buffer zone. So how it would work, according to Keir Starmer, is that they would consider sending in British troops for up to five years, meaning indefinitely, of course. And this would be comprised of France and the UK who would spearhead the mission, as well as 15 other countries who have agreed to deploy troops, or 13 other countries asides France and the UK, I should say.

And they’re claiming that this would assist with training and stability of operations and probably also rearming Ukraine to the tits for the next round of conflict with the Russians. This would be enforced by a skyshield which would be spearheaded by the Royal Air Force and the French, of course, and would effectively be an air defense zone, a no fly zone in those parts of Ukraine. So of course another potential flashpoint for Russia and Europe to go to war. However, this would not necessarily invoke Article 5 because of course it’s not on recognized NATO territory. Now Ukraine is doing some really totalitarian stuff nowadays and this should be a reminder for you not to trust the bank.

Get a load of this Ukraine military draft techno dystopia. I referred to it here. 26,000 Ukrainians have had access to their ATMs, their bank cards, their bank accounts blocked as a result of violation of mobilization rules. So they can no longer eat unless they have cash. Okay, so this is another reason. And this was a story, this was put into law, I believe like a year ago I talked about it on the channel, but now it’s come into effect. And so, and so what that means is if you don’t have cash, if you don’t have something to trade and you don’t want to go and die for the elites for World War iii, then you better have something to barter.

You better have some kind of universally recognized currency, like some sort of metal that we’ve talked about on the channel quite a lot lately, or just make sure that you have the systems that you need to sustain life when the inevitable comes our way. All right, now this is an interesting point from the former Romanian presidential candidate who basically was robbed of the election. Kalin Georgescu, whose bid was controversially invalidated, claimed that NATO wants to launch World War III from Romania. Of course, they’re building the world’s biggest military base there. He told this to Tucker Carlson in a recent interview.

And that is going to effectively be the next buffer zone between NATO and the Russians and the expanded Russian empire. Poland and Romania are going to form the bulwark of that coalition. Now in terms of the markets, we went through all the major three theaters of war. Here’s what’s going on. The US dollar is crashing. 30 and 10 year treasury bonds are spiking like crazy. The other day right after that announcement from China that they were imposing counter tariffs to the tune of 125% on American goods that come into the country. And believe it or not, American goods that go in that direction are around $450 billion.

So that’s not nothing. Okay, that’s a significant amount. But the Chinese can weather it because, well, they’re the Chinese. They’re homogeneous culture which has a very proud history. They’re not this melting pot of ideas and craziness that does have its moments when times are good, but unfortunately when times are bad, things go to hell really, really fast here. Let’s face it, the Chinese are not going to be compromised by, you know, 15% of their goods not being able to be purchased by the United States. Anyways. 30 year treasury yield soared as high as 5% today, a 58 basis point increase from last week, the largest weekly increase in 45 years.

And that’s according to bar chart. Shout out to bar chart on X. A great account to follow for financial news. Now, it’s unknown as to the extent of the selling of securities, but it appears as though they’re using the proceeds of the sale of those securities or they’re exchanging them in for things like Euros or other currencies, BRICs, related currencies, and very likely gold, because we’ve seen gold go parabolic, okay? And gold has not stopped. Gold only went down when we seen that rapid crash, only because people were trying to cover all their margin calls. Now gold quickly shot right back up and now it’s blowing past 3250 and there’s no overhead ahead.

Now, I’m not saying it’s going to go up in a straight line. You never want a precious metal to go up if in a straight line, okay? Because that means the end of days essentially. But it also means if it is just a FOMO thing, that it’s going to eventually retrace. So you want that consolidation. And if you go back and you look at how the price of gold has been trending since October 7th, and that was a pivotal moment. I’m not sure why. It was just like the moment when they said go, which makes me think that maybe the.

It wasn’t only the Iranians who were implicated in that exercise, that that was something that came from the top, top, top, top. Be it the Chinese and North Korea. Well, not the North Koreans, maybe the Russians. The Chinese and the Russians gave the green light to the Iranians who gave the green light to someone else. Because the price of gold since that time, it’s just been steadily upwards. It plateau for a little bit, trade sideways, maybe dip a little bit and then it’s a steady staircase upwards. It’s not a steep incline that you would see in some parabolic crypto rally or you know, some stock market rally like we’ve seen post post 2020.

This is a very, it was fast. It’s the fastest, well, not the fastest in history, but it is fast relative to how gold usually trades. But it wasn’t like a straight up. I mean the market doesn’t even know about it yet. I mean the real movers and shakers in the market do, but retail doesn’t know about it because the media is not drawing any attention to it. They understand what it means. The market is essentially crashing upwards. Okay? It’s a market, it’s been a market melt up for a long time and now you have valuations of companies sitting at where they were 2021, 2022 when we’re at the peak of that post Covid bubble and how much has inflation increased since that time? So that actually money that they’re sitting on is actually worth A lot less.

Okay, so the stock market is where it was two years ago on numerous indices, not all, but many. And the actual currency that a lot of those companies are measured in has declined precipitously. That’s what’s going down. The ppi. That’s what it is. The, the purchasing. What is it? Oh gee, PPI. Someone 50, 000 people are going to write it in the comments section. The ppi, something something index, purchasing index, which is basically not the consumer but the distributors, the wholesale, the manufacturers of goods. That went down from 3.3% which was expected to 2.7%. So that’s a huge reduction of.

Okay, so that should have been hyper bullish for the market, but it really wasn’t. There was a little uptick in the nasdaq. Normally that would have sent things skyrocketing. Okay. And that tells you that what we’re seeing right now is ephemeral at best. It’s going to be short lived. And just look at gold. Gold is telling you what’s going to happen. Okay. The markets are going to continue to crash. And right now you’re seeing selling, I think people are selling into this rally, the smart money and they’re moving that into more stable long form assets that they know they’re going to need when the shizzy hits the fizzy.

Now lastly, actually, not lastly, I want to this, this second last story here. RFK was saying that now you can’t really believe anything these guys say because they’ve been saying they’re gonna reveal the secrets of the universe ever since Trump got elected. And we haven’t heard one damn thing yet. But he claims that he’s going to tell President Trump that the world will know the cause of autism’s massive explosion, moving from 1 in 10,000 to 1 in 31 by September, that they’re going to crack the case. Okay, well, let’s hold them to it. It’s a very laudable exercise.

I hope they are successful in it. Trump is saying that they have secret weapons. I’m assuming that they’re talking about space because that’s the only thing that would really matter. Unless they’re talking about cyber weapons, nanotech, I don’t know, bioweapons perhaps. We have very powerful weapons. He says this country is very powerful. It is much more powerful than people realize. We have weapons that no one knows what they are. And they’re the most powerful weapons in the world that we have. Even more powerful than anyone else. Not by a long shot. Superlative. Superlative. So no one will do it.

Do what? I don’t know. Confront them, challenge them, Trump added, reiterating that Xi is a very smart man who knows exactly what needs to be done, which is call him. Which the Chinese have said, we’re not going to call you. The US President, who has previously referred to secret weapons in unusual scientific terminology, did not specify what weapons he has or what he was talking about this time. And it’s no surprise that Trump was one of the pioneers of Space Force and, you know, bringing Elon Musk on board and all of that talk last year about the Russians and the United States potentially nuclearizing.

Nuclearizing. Is that a word? Nuclearizing? Space? Putting nuclear weapons in space. Russians want to put nuclear power plants in space and on the moon. Some people think it’s cover for actual putting nuclear weapons into space to be used so that you could have basically no warning time and you could do decapitation strikes instantaneously. Who knows? I got to get going and enjoy this beautiful weather that we have here this weekend on the homestead. There is a lot of work to get done. I got chickens coming in soon. I got to get the greenhouse fully furnished for planting a lot of food this year.

We got to do work in the orchard. There’s just tons of stuff that needs to get done and time is tight. So get to it now. Also, I need to just, I don’t want to put this. Make this the. The big part of the video. And I don’t want to seem overly salacious, but the truth is, is that the prices of things are going to be going up very, very soon. Okay. And for that reason, you need to consider, if you are a person who is looking at this preparedness stuff and you want to get squared away, do it now before we jack our prices 15 to 20%.

And I have no choice in doing that because I’m looking at my bills from my distributors and they’re like 25% bigger than they were last year. We have some products that have went up over 100% in the last five years. And it’s crazy, but it’s just the reality. Our money is now worth less and it’s losing purchasing power by the day. So take that information and do with it what you will. Thanks for watching. Don’t forget to, like, comment, subscribe. Enjoy the weekend. Canadian Prepper out.
