➡ The speaker in the video is urging people to prepare for potential global crises, including war. He suggests stocking up on essentials like food, water, and medicine. He also discusses the current geopolitical situation, including conflicts in the Middle East and the potential for a major disruption in oil and gas supplies. He emphasizes the importance of being prepared and staying informed about global events.
➡ A ship was targeted off the UAE coast, and there are concerns about the increasing rate of Iranian fire. The use of AI in targeting systems is questioned due to potential errors. The conflict is expected to be long, with the possibility of more troops on the ground and a potential economic catastrophe due to rising energy prices. The situation in Iran is causing instability in other regions, with Taiwan facing energy shortages and China offering to stabilize their energy supplies in exchange for accepting Beijing’s rule.
➡ The text discusses the current unstable global situation, with a focus on potential conflicts involving Israel, China, and the US. It suggests that these tensions could lead to war, causing destruction of energy industries and potential famine due to shortages of resources like fertilizers. The author advises preparing for such scenarios by stocking up on essentials and considering off-grid power supplies. The text also mentions the possibility of nuclear warfare and the potential for escalating conflict.

This is your World War three update. Okay? So I’ve been doing this for a long, long time. And I can tell you beyond a shadow of a doubt if you were listening to one of these social media talking heads, podcasters, geopolitical analysts, and they’re telling you how bad things are and how bad things are going to get, and they’re not accompanying that with, hey, you should probably make sure you have the bare essentials covered as it pertains to preparedness. Then I would venture to say that those people may be incredibly knowledgeable, but they don’t understand the information.

There’s a difference. And if they are not advising you to have those bases covered, then I would question whether or not they believe what they’re saying at all. And I usually don’t initiate a video anymore with the generic put preparedness prescription of, hey, you need to go and stock up on food, water, ammo, medicine, gasoline, and gold and silver and those types of things. Because it seems like such introductory advice at this point that I forget that 90% of the population still needs that motivation to do that because they don’t have those bases covered. And I’m here to tell you now that if you don’t have those bases covered, you are behind.

Okay? You are way behind at this point. I want to motivate you in this video to get out there and do what you got to do to at least be slightly ahead of the curve for what’s potentially coming. This is not about just consuming bad news and being entertained by shit. I don’t know how anybody could listen to me every day and not at least have a few weeks worth of food stored away. I. I don’t know how you could do that. If that is happening, then I’m not doing something that I should be doing, because if that’s the case, and I’m seeing, you know, that this war in itself is proof positive that it’s getting the attention of millions of people.

And there’s only a handful, a handful of pundits who are actually advising their, their viewers that you need to actually start, you know, looking at your situation and asking yourself, how long are you able to ride out a major disruption in services? Because we are truly living in a period of time where the circumstances are so unprecedented that from day to day we could see a novel global calamity present itself that was not forecast or that there was no leading indicators whatsoever. It could just manifest out of nowhere, it seems. And from today to day, it’s something different.

And the pace at which we’re acclimatizing ourselves to these changes is just astounding. You know, things which would have, in days gone by caused markets to crash nowadays are barely a blip on the radar. And so for this reason, I’m advising people today that I have Never, in my 12 years of doing this, since I started doing the channel, when I was just providing suppositions about what I thought SHTF might look like to the more modern day, more realistically aligned expectations of how that post apocalyptic environment, or post collapse environment, as I’ve heard it eloquently referred to before, will unfold.

I’ve never been more concerned about the current state of the world and the future. And by future, I mean the immediate future. Because the best case scenario at this point is a very long war in the Middle East. It seems as though, and it’s not seems as though the United States now got itself in a pickle. And I think that was intentional. And they are now actively trying to start a major war in the Middle east which will devolve into the destruction of Middle Eastern oil and gas infrastructure, which of course supplies the better part of the planet not only with fuel, but also sustenance in the form of fertilizers, which will now be taken offline as a result of this major war that neither side seems to care to yield to the other.

And today we’ve seen some major developments. You’ll probably watch this tomorrow in terms of escalation ladders and targeting of energy facilities. Now, Trump came out in a tweet and he said, oh, Israel did that and we didn’t know about it. I can tell you with, I would bet everything I have on this that not only did the United States know about it, they approved it. Okay? The United States knows everything Israel is going to do before Israel does it. They’re using all of US equipment, they’re using isr, all of the AI that the United States is plugged into.

The Israelis aren’t acting autonomously at all in this conflict, but it’s a convenient cop out for the US to say and play this whole good cop, bad cop routine. Well, nobody’s buying it anymore. So when the US Comes out and says, oh, we didn’t bomb your gas field, Iran, it was Israel who did it, when just this morning or yesterday morning, there was confirmation that indeed, and this is from major publications, that the US Knew about it. So Trump later walks it back. You cannot take anything this guy says seriously at this point. I mean, that the market is even at all moved significantly by anything this guy says is baffling because within a few hours, either he says something different or the circumstances dictate something different.

So now they’re talking about putting more troops in. Where they’re going to put them in, we don’t know. We do know that they’re potentially preparing for a nuclear incident because the WHO is preparing for a worst case scenario in the Middle east in which there is a major nuclear incident. And if you haven’t seen my interview with Brandon Weickert from the Weikert Report, I would strongly encourage you to see that. I’m not sure which channel I’m going to post this on. I’m just crossing the streams now because it’s wartime and it doesn’t make sense to split up the channels at this point in time, especially when we’re mostly just doing the information based stuff and that’s all that people want.

But you know, really what we should be doing now is talking about skill development and advanced preparedness skills, because that’s what you need to be focusing on now more than ever. You have all the confirmation of the reasons why you should prep, but people keep coming back. And I honestly am compelled to do it because there’s so much bullshit out there and, and I like dispelling the myths. And I have a very analytical mind, which is not to say I don’t make mistakes periodically, but I’m pretty good at cutting through the bullshit with most things and letting you know what’s going on.

And I can tell you beyond a shadow of a doubt that this situation is out of control. But it’s not out of control in the sense that they didn’t anticipate this. They knew that this was going to get out of control. And I think they were more than happy to have a situation that got out of control because the alternative is the rise of China and our certain defeat. And if you want to learn more about that and hear it more articulated in a way which is perhaps a little bit easier to follow and not so scatterbrained the way I present things.

Go and listen to the interview I did with Brandon Weicker because it really, you know, will allow you to, I think, have a better comprehension of a lot of things that are going on. So right now, in light of the fact that Israel struck the nuclear facility yesterday, and that is confirmed, they struck it, I believe it was 350 meters from the actual reactor. Nonetheless, this was a shot across the bow. The US Knew that the Israelis did this, and today the US Knew that the Israelis Israelis targeted and it was really Americans. It’s interchangeable. They knew that the US Military, that they targeted the gas refineries in Iran.

And the statement that Trump made, if you read the fine print, if you care to, if there even really is, it seems like those are just reactive statements that are fired out. But I think there is a little bit of fine print there because what he’s saying is if there’s another attack on Qatar in general, then we are going to continue to ramp up these attacks. And he’s also said the same thing with respect to this trade of Hormuz. If it is not, if the blockade is not lifted, then we will continue to target your energy infrastructure.

And how is Iran going to respond? Well, they’re going to respond in the same way. Now, all of the Gulf state leaders came out and resoundingly condemned these attacks by Iran because not only they did they attack the facility in, what do you call it, Qatar. This is in Saudi Arabia. We’ve seen some massive explosions across the board. And the Iranians didn’t hesitate. They didn’t wait. I mean, within the hour, they were already attacking the entire region. Okay, so they’re not messing around at this point in time. I mean, I don’t know how many cluster munitions fell on Israel today.

We’ve still yet to see those cluster munitions actually make contact on the ground. But we’ve seen a ship get targeted once again today off the coast of the uae. This is the UKMTO warning that happened. We’ve seen Tulsi Gabbard is basically sell her soul, and she’s basically fully on board with all of this. She’s not speaking out about it. I’m not sure why, because she’s falling out of favor of a lot of people. But I’ve warned you about her for the longest time. And anybody who speaks in that very slow, condescending, patronizing, Karen like tone is probably a sociopathic nutcase that you shouldn’t trust.

You know, we just have oil refinery after oil refinery burning now. We are starting to see that the Iranian rate of fire is only increasing, which means that we are being lied to about the targets that they’re actually hitting. And they’re probably, if they’re using AI. If you think about it, we all know AI shortcomings, whether it’s in writing essays. Yeah, it’s always evolving. It’s getting better. And by the time summer gets here, we could have Skynet for all we know. But we also know that it makes a lot of blunders with The AI targeting system, the Maven Palantir software that they’re using, you got to think a lot of the data that it’s using is outdated, which is part of the reason why that school of the children was hitting the database was just, you know, the AI just made an error.

It had a hallucination and it thinks, okay, well, we’re going to target this. And that’s a successful one of the 8,000, you know, areas that was targeted. We don’t know how many of those bunker busters are actually being effective and if they are, whether or not those facilities are just being redeemed within a few days with a few bulldozers. We don’t know if these above ground facilities are really that essential to the Iranian war effort. Regardless, clearly they have a lot of arsenal at their disposal. The Iranians have claimed that they spent the first few days taking out the radars, and now they’ve essentially created a situation whereby through the slow attrition of American and Israeli interceptors, that they’re able to now effectively target at will without with minimal resistance.

Now, of course, their missiles and their drones are still being shot down quite regularly in high numbers, but more and more are getting through as they fire less and less, with the exception of the last few days, as depicted by this graph. So what this means is that this is going to be a long war. Trump has today committed to even more troops on the ground, or at least had some rumblings in the White House. And Israel is already, it seems, and Weikart thinks they’re desperate. I’m not so sure about that. I don’t think Netanyahu is dead.

I don’t think anybody in the Israeli government’s dead. Are they cowards and they’re hiding in a bunker? Yes, of course they are. Maybe not all the time, but when there is a threat, you can bet your ass they’re hiding in a bunker. I don’t think they’re dead. I just find that to be a little far fetched. If they are, then holy shit. But the knock on effects of a prolonged conflict in terms of the economic catastrophe that is going to be realized is going to be catastrophic. Now, this is a great chart that shows that surge in energy prices indicate a very high probability of recession.

Pretty much every time, whenever there has been a wild increase in oil and gas prices, there’s always this shock to the markets, demand destruction. And then after that, usually there’s deflation. But if you look here in 2008, okay, so we had this huge oil shock I believe this was the record for the highest price of oil in real terms. If you were to assess it today, it would be like $210 a barrel. So we are nowhere close to the highest oil price in real terms succeeding. That, of course, was the Great Recession, which was a fairly long recession, relatively speaking, to the other ones.

And then up until about 2000, late 2011, gold continued to rocket up throughout this recession. But just prior to it, you know, gold was tanking, actually. And so, well, not tanking, but, you know, it was kind of steadily moving up and then it kind of came down a bit and then it shot back up again all the way till 2011. So I think that’s what the metals are doing right now. I think there’s a big liquidity crisis and maybe there’s a lot of people rotating into energy stocks, so they’re paring down some gold gains in order to move into oil because they believe that this is going to go a lot higher.

And again, this is not in real terms. If this was in real terms, this line would be way higher. But what this shows you, either way, we’re getting a recession at minimum, it very likely we’re going to be ensnared in a very long war because it seems as though they’re committed by hook or by crook to take Iran somehow. And they know the only way they can do that is with boots on the ground. And while a lot of people, including Brandon Weickert, dispute the feasibility of this initiative, I think that on a long enough timeline and with the right kind of false flag event to motivate people, you could easily have a war economy emerge.

And I don’t think it would be too. As long as people think to get things going. I think we’re underestimating our ability to industrialize, which is not to say it wouldn’t be without its share of problems. And we might not have. We might have to work long days. These are all things that are to be expected. But I think oftentimes we underestimate our abilities to adapt to these situations. And I think in this case we will. We will see a huge surge in interest in the war effort, especially if there is a false flag attack. I’m not in agreement of that, but it’s the way it is.

And as the situation in Iran becomes destabilized, all the situations in the other fronts also become destabilized. I learned today that Taiwan only has a limited amount of energy. Okay. And so the unexpected move that China might make here, get a load of this, according to Reuters, China has made an offer of stabilizing energy supplies to Taiwan in exchange for accepting Beijing’s rule. Now, it’s very likely this is not going to happen, and the US Will find a way to get Taiwan the oil they need. It may even come from the Japanese strategic oil reserve, for all we know.

But Taiwan faces severe energy shortages with only 11 days of reserves left due to halted Gulf shipments and US Delivery failures, heightening its strategic vulnerability to these proposals. So it may be the case that China makes its move on Taiwan, and Taiwan, out of desperation, has to accept some kind of deal that could be the unexpected play here. Now, I don’t think that the US Is, is going to forego indopacam in that sort of way. I think they’re, they’re going to. I think a big part of this, this coalition of release of the strategic oil reserves is to mitigate issues like this, to make sure that China can’t use that as leverage.

But what I’m trying to say is that this destabilized situation in the Middle east puts us on the nuclear razor’s edge pretty much everywhere else. Because despite the removal of sanctions on Russia, that’s not going to lower the price. And this is the funny thing is they think that’s going to lower the price. That actually is going to raise the price because the sanctions were forcing the Russians to sell their oil cheaper. So now that you remove that, while it’s true that they can now openly sell their oil on the market, they were selling it anyways in shadow fleets, which are still being seized by European countries.

And so now they’re talking about armed escorts, which is going to be very costly for the Russians. So I think people have got that backwards. And I’m wondering why this has got Scott Bessant so bothered, because maybe Trump doesn’t understand the economics of it. Maybe there’s something I’m not understanding. But if the Russians are forced to sell their oil at a price of like $50 a barrel, that actually has the effect of lowering the price of oil dramatically. Okay? So if they’re now basically pulling the lid off that and they’re giving ultimatums to Europe, like, we might not even want to sell you oil, period.

We want you to beg for it now. And unless you stop your support of Ukraine firing drones and storm shadow missiles into our country, well, maybe we’re not going to give you the oil, because now we have a little bit of leverage and now we can actually charge full price, which is only going to boost the price, because a lot of these countries were buying oil illegally at rock bottom prices. Because the only reason why you would buy it illegally is if you, you were willing to take on that risk. So in order to do that you would want a better price.

So what I’m trying to say is the situation just is destabilized across the board. We’re really at a point now where with, we’re within, I think shooting distance of Israel having a justifiable reason in their warped minds to use a nuclear weapon. I think it won’t be long at this point. What will the response be? It all depends. I think in an ideal world, from their Mossad prerogative, they would want some sort of false flag attack or at least a real attack before that happened. And they may well get that. There was a story that was circulating today, just before I logged on here that suggested that Pete Hegseth and Donald Trump’s residencies were being surveyed by drones or military bases in which some high ranking officials, I think it was Rubio and Hegseth, they’re living on military bases, just so people know, because of course they’re constantly paranoid about World War 3 and possibly civil unrest breaking out.

But that should have been a dead giveaway right away. You know, the big meeting of the generals last year and the, the gag order on the Pentagon press and the White House and the rapid reaction forces, I mean the signs are all there, they’re all there at this point that this thing is going to get out of control. And they are actively trying to instigate a war. This is the scariest part. They’re actively trying to instigate a war between the Gulf states and the Iranians which they know will end in the wholesale destruction of all of the energy producing industry in that region.

And that is insane because there’s something that’s compelling them to do that that has them so spooked. And the consensus is that it’s China’s rise and this is a classic Thucydides trap. This is their only way to attack the Chinese without it going nuclear. Today, Tulsi Gabbard was giving her testimony about how the Russians are putting nukes in space, as are the Chinese. They’re advancing their weapons systems. So we need to build the Golden Dome and yada, yada, yada. Okay, so Greenland, it all the, you know, it all makes sense now at this point, what is about to happen.

We really are in World War iii and I don’t think we’re going to see deflation anytime soon. We didn’t really see much deflation after 2008 because of course they kept printing money and that’s probably what they’re going to do in this instance as well. So yes, in the very least stock up. I know that is the consumerist cop out for preppers is, well, you just need to stock up and go to Costco and buy stuff. That’s the practical way to go. I mean, look, you can go and buy an acreage or buy some land. It’s once you finally do everything you need to do, you’re going to be in six figures at minimum.

And a lot of that might even be debt. And so what can you do? Six figures? Consumerism. Well, you could buy years, possibly decades worth of the bare essentials that you could store away. I don’t think that’s any way to live per se, but I think that, you know, practically speaking, at this stage of the game, that is something that you should at least have in. I don’t want to give a number like in terms of weeks worth of storage because it really depends. I mean for a person like me, I think having at least six months worth of all of the basic provisions should probably get you through, you know, the best case scenarios that are about to unfold.

The worst case scenarios, yeah, that’s when you want to have regenerative systems, you want to have an off grid power supply because that is something that you’re going to need especially to stay, you know, connected to the world. If we even have the Internet, if this thing goes south. Because in addition to the petroleum and the gasoline, we’re talking about shortages of fertilizers which are going to thrust the developing world into potential famine and that is going to have all kinds of knockoff effects, knock on effects here in the west that yeah, it’s going to mean increased prices.

And for us it’s not going to be Armageddon. No, what’s going to be Armageddon is when we get in a shooting match with the Chinese and the Russians and maybe, you know, the odd cyber attack here and there, even those benign events, I’m not too worried about. I’m not really worried about a short term power outage caused by a cyber attack. If there was something prolonged that did actual damage to the hardware itself, like exploding phones or something like that, or data centers, then yeah, you know, that’s something, you know, that could potentially have real collapse implications.

But I’m more worried about the war component of this. And when people get that desperate, as Israel is getting quite Desperate. And the United States, let’s face it, this is their proxy. They’ve gotten themselves into a situation, but I don’t think it was by accident. I think they’re doing this to intentionally destroy the countries in that region. And if that’s the intent, then that means they know that oil is going to go $200, $300. Are they going to pull the rug on the petrodollar before that? And are they going to do the tariff thing where they charge tariffs to other countries who want to buy US Oil to effectively keep the price of oil low for everybody but us? They may try to do some scheme like that, but that is going to destroy global trust in the United States and it’s going to cause people to look for partnerships elsewhere in terms of global trade, which will ultimately backfire on us.

So, you know, we’re seeing all kinds of prices increase. Ammonia, sulfur, cargo, lots of cargo is stranded in the Strait of Hormuz right now. We have shipping, insurance, food, security risks, market volatility. I mean, the list goes on and on and on. And that’s all before the nuclear risks. Because if a nuke gets used in Iran, that becomes a potential jump off point for the normalization of low yield tactical nuclear weapons and warfare, which I think could happen. You know, we need to really appreciate that we’re living in a pre nuclear age in the sense that, yeah, we’ve seen nukes used in Japan, but we’re not in an age where they’re used regularly.

Like, you know, in the movie Starship Troopers that I reference a lot where they use nukes, like tactical nukes out of a bazooka. Okay. And this is actually something that was created back in the 50s or 60s where they had these very, you know, tiny nuclear weapons. The Davy Crockett that was, I think it was one kiloton, which is still a massive explosion, but I wouldn’t be surprised if we see that. And then the threshold then becomes a certain kilotonnage of nuclear weapon, which of course is hard to determine by the explosion alone. And that’s when you have a run up that escalation ladder and things just deteriorate from there.

So I’m going to leave you on this note. This is perhaps symbolic. This is Denver Airport and apparently there was some kind of power outage today which caused a big delay and they grounded a lot of flights and you had crowds of travelers. I don’t know. There’s something symbolic here. Everything we know about the Denver airport and all of the esoteric Statues and cryptic imagery throughout the airport that might suggest that this is a potential rallying point post shtf, that there’s some underground bunker that is built under there, which would make sense because it’s the geographical center, more or less, for large metropolitan areas in the United States.

It’s near the mountains. They might even have tunnels from there going under the mountains, for all we know. So I just thought that was kind of interesting. You know, it’s probably. What do they call it? Apophenia? Is that what it’s called where you. Or what is that called? It’s something where you find, you know, patterns in things where there isn’t. Patterns? Is that what it’s called? I can’t remember. There’s a term for it. It’s where you’re, you know, more conspiracy theorists find patterns and things where there isn’t any. This is in Libya. Okay. And, yeah, so oil.

Oil refineries are burning in Libya as well. This one was an accident, though, so nothing to worry about there. Right? I really want to look up this word. I know it’s on the tip of my tongue. What is the word for finding patterns in things that are there? Let’s see here. Let’s learn something new today. Apophenia. I was right. Okay. I still got it. All right, my friends. Well, I appreciate you guys tuning in today. Go check out the interview with Brandon Weichert if you want to support the channel. Best way to do that, go through the links in the description below.
