Jiang

imagine a scenario where America is overcommitted. They're attacking Venezuela. They are supporting NATO in Ukraine. They're over the place. Now would be the time for Iran to draw America into a ground war in the Middle East. Remember, the CIA is the world's greatest drug runner. I mean, most of the world's drug industry is controlled in some way or another by the CIA. So when you say, you know, when Donald Trump says, I'm going to go after the drug cartels in Venezuela, when he says I'm going to go after drug cartels in Mexico, what he's really saying is I'm going to go after certain factions of the CIA that I'm going to power struggle with. We also need to take into account secret societies. So the Jesuits, the Freemasons, the Mormons, they've been dormant for a long time. But now that we're reaching an eschatological age, what they believe to be the messianic age, they're much more active.

Jiang

Then they used to be. And these secret societies will be much more supportive of Trump because Trump would help them start World War Three, which they believe is crucial in achieving their eschatology and fulfilling biblical prophecy. You're watching Capital Cause and my name is Danny.

Participant

It is October 24th, 2025. And my guest today was a huge fan favorite the last time we had him on. So we had to have him back on again for an update. It's none other than Professor Jang.

Jiang exchange

Professor, thank you so much for coming on. Thanks so much for inviting me back.

Participant question

Yeah, I mean, we have a lot to discuss. It's been about a month and a half or so since we last spoke. So lots of things have transpired on the geopolitical scene. Since then, it looks like, according to certain reports out there that Iran is entering war conditions. And according to their intelligence chief, that you know, their head of the CIA, over 50 plus, intelligence agencies were involved in the 12 day war assisting, assisting the attack on Iran. So let's go ahead and start off with that front. What new updates have you seen on that side of the World War Three theater?

Jiang answer

Yeah, so I think that both Israel and Iran are committed to a round two. So as we discussed last time, Trudy Parsi, who is America's foremost Iranian expert, he believes in an attack will happen before December, by December. And the Iranians have demonstrated the will and the capacity to strike back this time. And what people believe is that in round two, the Iranians will not hold back. As you recall, in the 12 day war, the Iranians showed tremendous restraint. It was barraging Israel with ballistic missiles, but it was it was not its full capacity. And then when the United States attack Iran, Iran responded by attacking an empty military base in Qatar, and it forewarned the Americans that it would do so. But I think this time around, Iran is fully cognizant that it is not just up against the United States and Israel, it is up against Southeast Asia, and Muslim countries.

Jiang answer

other countries as well um iran is for all intents and purposes isolated israel believes that now is the opportunity to strike iran because its proxies in the region hamas hezbollah the houthis are constrained and so now it's a perfect opportunity to um attack and israel is pretty confident that this time around the united states will be even more supportive and what we can expect the the big question is will iran close off the shirt of hummus because that really is um iran iran's trump card really it closes off the issue of hummus it's a stranglehold on the global economy united states will be forced to send in ground troops to relieve the shirt of hummus and um this could escalate very quickly into world war three so i do not think it is a um optimistic situation i i think that eventually a conflict will arise and this conflict will escalate uh rapidly

Jiang answer

one big another question that we should look at is the third temple so um as you may know israel has imported five red heifers into israel and you do that because you need to sacrifice them to consecrate um the ground for the building of the third temple and if you build the third temple you have to do so by destroying the our accent mosque which is the third holy site in the Islamic world. So I think these are the two major questions that we have going into the second round. Will Iran close off the Strait of Homs and will the Al -Azhar Mosque be destroyed in order to prepare for the building of the third temple? Interesting. Why did Iran not close off the straits during the initial 12 -day war? That's a great question. So if Iran were to close off the Strait of Homs, it would do tremendous damage to the global economy.

Jiang answer

Now, China is a major ally of Iran, and China imports most of its oil from the Middle East. So Iran cannot actually close off the Strait of Homs unless it confers directly with both Russia and China. And they will need the consent of both nations to close off the Strait of Homs. So I think during the 12 -day war, everyone was sort of taken aback by the speed. All the war and proper diplomatic negotiations couldn't have been conducted during that time. But I think in the two, three months afterwards, China, Russia, and Iran did confer. And I think there is almost an implicit agreement that if Israel and the United States were to attack Iran again, then Iran needs to defend itself fully. It can't hold back this time. So I think Iran has a very strong force, and it's very cognizant of the geopolitical situation. It does not want to alienate its major allies.

Jiang answer

It needs to build up global opinion. It needs to be on the side of the moral authority. And so I think closing off the Strait of Homs, it is really the last option for Iran. It's almost a nuclear option. And I definitely wouldn't want to do that without fully considering all the possible repercussions.

Participant question

P.J. Good. Would they be able to close off the entirety of the Strait, or just a significant portion of it?

Jiang answer

P.J. They would be able to close off the entire Strait, because the Strait is not that wide. P.J. There's a choke point. Remember, where Iran excels are in missile warfare and in drone warfare. And so you could easily close off the Strait. I mean, basically, no one sure would guarantee any ship that goes for the Strait of Homs. If there's no insurance, they can't possibly sail through that.

Participant question

P.J. You mentioned the interconnectivity between Iran and China, particularly by way of energy. Is there a chance that the corridors that transfer these barrels of oil could be struck as well? Or would the United States not want to antagonize China in the process?

Jiang answer

P.J. Yeah. I think my best guess is that they will come to negotiations, and I think they'll come to a deal, a secret deal, where maybe Iran is still allowed to ship oil to China, but secretly. So remember, Iran has the option of closing off the Strait of Homs, but it can allow certain ships to pass through the Strait of Homs. So these things are extremely complicated. These different different nation states are always discussing negotiating behind closed doors all the time and I think that um they'll reach an agreement where Iran is still able to supply energy to um to to

Participant question

China even though it's closed officer of humus interesting why is it that up until now Iran has been kind of half -hearted in fully trusting Russia and China I mean you know there is an alliance but but they've always kind of kept both Russia and China you know you know six feet apart let's say to to use some of the coveted analogies from the past but they've always kind of left some distance between them and you look at some of the reformists in Iran like javad Zarif uh Rouhani the past president before uh raisi uh and now poseshkin they've always had like this inclination that you know they could somehow that they don't want to fully commit to an alliance with Russia and China because they wanted to leave the door open to normalizing with the West particularly Europe and uh the United States so why is it is Iran now fully in the Russia

Participant question

China alliance or are they still kind of you know one foot in one foot out I know they bought you know these su s400 from Russia recently they also bought some fighter jets from China what's the state of the russo -sino

Jiang answer

um Persian Alliance yeah great question and so what we're with remember about geopolitics is that the conflict within nation states is always greater than conflict outside nation states and so as you mentioned there are lots of different factions within Iran and they will proceed the geopolitical landscape differently okay there are many factions who legitimately believe that in the long term Russia is a greater geopolitical threat to Iran than the United States because United States at the end of the day it's far away um so you don't be russia you don't be too reliant on uh china remember these nations have tremendous national pride um iran is the um here to the persian empire uh one of the greatest civilizations ever in human history it's still a great civilization so i don't think the iranians would be happy being subordinate to the russians or the chinese and so you have one on one hand these different

Jiang answer

factions in iran who have different viewpoints about how to best navigate the geopolitical landscape on the other hand there is this long history of mistrust between iran and russia remember russia did invade iran previously um so um you know it's a very complex uh issue but i think we've reached a point where after many years of negotiation um after many years of trying to negotiate with americans the iranians have recognized that there's no point in negotiating with americans um it seems that israel in america they are beholding to an eschatological framework that requires them to start war three in the middle east there's no point in negotiations anymore so let us um you know i mean let's just finish this um um also you know what's what's important for iran is to rally its population so you know from from a political perspective you want to show the population that you've exhausted all options before

Jiang answer

you commit to war right so i so i think that iran has been extremely generous extremely tolerant shown extremely powerful these past five years you know whenever america has you know re given iran a deal and it could be a it could have been a deal that was not actually beneficial to iran iran was always trying to take the deal i mean iran was always trying to negotiate um a a agreement with america that would benefit both sides and now um that um the um you know treaty option has been taken off the table um um you know and now that europe has um committed to snapback sanctions then iran has actually no choice but to commit to russia and china so do you also hold the view as uh trina

Participant question

parsi who we just interviewed a couple of weeks ago by the way thanks for the recommendation do you also hold the view that a strike is imminent vice let's say december um so you know i'm not as

Jiang answer

confident as he is on timing i don't know i actually don't actually know what where he got the december timing but i i think that um the the timing you know the thing about israel and america is they work on their own timeline so they're not really they don't they don't factor in iran's response they will strike when they're ready to strike and so back to the principle that the conflict within nation states is greater than the conflict outside nation states so i think that america uh you know the difference deep state deep state factions the the military industrial complex they probably need to uh do some preparation they probably need to uh negotiate amongst themselves when the best when to best strike um and you know what's really interesting is that when they do strike you'll find that there are some um astrological elements to this you know they they care a lot about

Jiang answer

numerology they care a lot about stars aligning uh because in round two they'll probably go all in so you know round one the 12th day war that was a general perspective for do you think that foreign states and other states or even the administratorial states will actually still represent that temperature carriers in the briefing and then they do a little bit more uh how they might respond to not only the international economy but their sustainable economic climate at that point and i think that will be uh that's another a good answer uh there's a double think i respectuk you for not covering tyranny but if they haven't covered there um they will nobody is going to be discussing decide to strike but rest assured they will strike they but they will strike at a time that they think

Participant question

is most beneficial to them interesting you mentioned the decapitation strike from the 12 -day war and in the process it seems like israel was able to target some of these older generals and in the process they've made way for some of the younger blood to work their way up the ranks or could potentially be more imaginative potentially be less restrained uh do you have any insights in terms of who these newer uh newer newer blood that have uh come to replace the old old guard

Jiang answer

since 12 the 12 -day war yeah so i don't have actually have insight into iranian uh politics but i completely agree with you that these decapitation strikes uh during the 12 -day war they're actually kind of productive uh from an american israeli point of view because um remember the military um had become the ultimate bureaucracy and you had many many generals who've been there for a long long time um they were much more interested in protecting the political fiefdoms than they were actually innovating preparing for a war with the united states and now that they're gone then you have a much more vibrant much more dynamic much more innovative generation coming up to uh replace them and um the other thing is that because of the 12 -day war the military now is much more cohesive much more unified than it used to be um you know the the revolutionary guards was one of the

Jiang answer

most corrupt institutions in iran and now that there's an existential crisis facing iran um they really need to rally behind uh their their their leader and so um i think the iranians this time will be much more prepared and i think that um both the americans and israelis will be surprised by the ferocity of the iranian

Participant question

response and if this thing does ignite you know sometime soon between uh u.s israel and iran does that imply that iran's affiliates aka hezbollah and uh houthis and all of the other ones would be activated in their respective locations or is this simply uh an iran centered

Jiang answer

conflict yeah great question so what i would say is that if i'm a military strategist in iran um i have certain advantages okay my first major advantage is that i can control the education ladder uh remember uh my trump card is closing other straightforward moves so i mean iran israel united states are bombing me because that's what they do right they'll do airstrikes they won't actually do a ground invasion and i can choose to moderate my response and calibrate my response in a way that can either prolong this war or quicken this war okay so so the timetable is something that iran can control so i'm going to go ahead and i'm going to go ahead and i'm going to go ahead and i'm going to go ahead and i'm going to go ahead and i'm going to go ahead and if i'm if i'm iran issue is not a problem right i mean so

Jiang answer

what have i destroyed tel aviv um what does that get me it gets me nothing because at the end of the day america is still around america's intent on destroying me for various geopolitical reasons and so i need to be able to knock down the american empire and the only way i can do that is by coordinating with different powers okay so imagine a scenario where america is over committed um they're attacking venezuela supporting nato in ukraine uh they're over the place now would be the time for iran to draw america into a ground war in the middle east right so that that i think is the strategic thinking of the people uh in iran the timing of people something we can control we want to control it in a way that allows us to knock out america in one punch and that's when you know they're off balance because they're over committed all around

Jiang answer

the world

Participant question

interesting what what do you think is the rationale behind wanting to pick a fight with venezuela all of a sudden while at the same time it looks like things are gearing up for a fight with iran i mean wouldn't you want to not open multiple fronts at the same time yeah you're

Jiang answer

that's again this is gonna be a complete mystery to people why this is happening um america could at any point in its history take over venezuela it doesn't it doesn't choose to because it's a pain in the ass to go and colonize a nation you have to deal with guerrilla warfare you have to invest in infrastructure you're you're much better off co -opting the elite which is something that america has been doing for hundreds of years in south and uh latin america um and when they go attack venezuela that's going to cause tremendous nationalism um in brazil in argentina in latin america it's been a huge problem for america in the long term so my own explanation for why america is considering attacking venezuela is the empire is desperate the empire is in decline it's desperate it's been humiliated in uh ukraine so i don't think people appreciate the level of humiliation and defeat that

Jiang answer

nato united states has suffered in ukraine remember that um nato was supplying ukraine with the most advanced weaponry with targeting with intelligence with unlimited financing with special forces and ukraine managed to lose between one to two million men so ukraine as a nation state is no longer viable i hate to say this but the war in ukraine is over nato has been humiliated and the american empire the generals who run it um they can't stomach a defeat so it's almost they want to lash out it's almost like they've been humiliated in ukraine so they need to go beat someone up to show they're still they're still in charge that's that's my only ration my only explanation for what's happening otherwise it's hard for me to explain why they're doing this now people say that venezuela has the world's largest reserve of oil i understand that but why haven't they tapped into it because it's hard

Jiang answer

to access it's hard to access and uh the oil needs to be processed as well so it's a huge capital investment to go and try to uh tap venezuela's uh oil and that's why they haven't really um invested that much in in doing so so far so even if america were to take over venezuela it would spend a lot of time a lot of energy a lot of resources to uh tap the natural wealth of venezuela and that's why they haven't done it so far so um it's hard for me to explain what's happening in venezuela yeah and it seems like

Participant question

if they're able to topple venezuela what did the next target be cuba and then nicaragua maybe even

Jiang answer

brazil well yeah because you're gonna have insurgencies throughout the south america you're you know right now there is almost an understanding between latin america south america and the united states where the empire doesn't invade you but you pay tribute to the empire and that's the sort of the implicit agreement but if you go if united states can go invade other countries for no particular reason then that incentivizes other nations to disobey you and to fight back to no longer pay tribute to you and so um it's very hard for me to understand why they're doing this in venezuela and i think that if they were to actually strike venezuela it's gonna it's gonna create a domino effect i mean it will be a domino effect where as you say all these other nations will will sort of strike back in america is now have to have to go send troops to mexico to cuba everywhere

Jiang

basically all right quick break here because if

Participant

you're buying gold or silver the normal way you're probably overpaying by a lot and that's because most retail dealers quietly tack on these huge markups sometimes ten percent sometimes twenty percent sometimes even thirty percent and you don't even notice it it's like paying a hundred and fifteen dollars for a hundred dollar bill doesn't make sense right so that's why i've been talking about gold million standard pro it's a membership that basically lets you buy precious metals at real wholesale prices the same prices that dealers get so no inflated premiums no middleman games their platform updates every five seconds straight from mints and distributors so what you see is literally the real market and here's the crazy part if you buy something like this gold american eagle here's the amount of money you're going to be saving at least so it basically pays for itself multiple folds on many occasions depending on what you buy and

Participant

if you want to try it out they're hooking up my viewers with an exclusive 10 off their first month just use promo code cosm10 at checkout that's c -o -s -m 10 at checkout so if you're stacking investing or just tired of getting hit with hidden markups check them out now bullion standard pro click on the link down below in the description box and use promo code cosm10 now let's get back to the video yeah because you do have this uh i mean how do i want to call it like this uh this marxist block let's just say in south america um and so like there there is kind of like this unity between uh the likes of mexico and venezuela and cuba and even brazil to an extent so so i so i think there's a different fact

Jiang answer

i think there's a different factor that we're not taking into account which is the sort of like conflict among the different deep state factions in the united states remember um the cia is the world's greatest drug runner i mean the most of the world's drug industry is controlled in some way or another by the cia so when you say you know when donald trump says i'm gonna go after the drug cartels in venezuela when i when he says i'm gonna go after drug cartels in mexico what he's really saying is i'm gonna go after certain factions of the cia that um i'm in a power struggle with so i i don't think there's something that will ever be known um but i think that's another factor where uh america the deep state there are different

Participant question

factions and they're in conflict with each other what are the two main factions let's uh let's kind of like define the map here what's the faction that trump belongs to what's the faction that

Jiang answer

he's opposed to well i mean the two main factions of course are the liberal establishment the globalists right um so this goes back to george h.w. bush the the new world order um and this global establishment elite is cahoots with the state of london wall street um and many elites within europe within china within russia right so these are people who commit to uh globalization and then the counter elite are those who are america first who want to focus uh america's resources in rebuilding america and detach america from the global financial elite so i'd say these are two major factions i don't think it's that simple but i think that uh for the purpose of analysis you can make that make it that simple

Participant question

and it seems like there's also like uh like if you were to draw a venn diagram there's also like an intersection like there's like there's like a an intersection point where you have this other cohort of elites it just goes between each one no matter you know depending on who's in power because a lot of the people that trump has and uh has in power or has affiliated with today elon musk was a democrat right um you know he's he's talking to all these uh these tech giants and google and facebook you know zuckerberg and facebook um who were you know they were part of the democratic establishment now they've been rotten into the trump fold so isn't there also like this like don't they also go where the where the wind blows as well yeah um so i think that what's

Jiang answer

happening here is conflict between the wall street financial elite and the silicon valley uh tech bros right so even though the silicon valley tech bros have more money um they're not as powerful politically powerful as the wall street financial elite and so they're trying to establish their own power base within washington that will naturally uh lead to conflict uh with the wall street uh elite um and trump is a champion but as as you point out um it's a very dynamic and fluid situation people like peter thiel um um elon musk um mark zuckerberg they don't have any loyalties except to themselves so it's a very fluid situation what i also say is we also need to take into account secret societies um so the jesuits the freemasons uh the mormons they've been dormant for a long time but now that we're reaching an eschatological age what they believe to be the messianic age they're

Jiang answer

much more active than they used to be and these secret societies will be much more supportive of trump would help them start world war iii which they believe is crucial in achieving their eschatology in fulfilling biblical prophecy um and trump has been extremely supportive of of israel so as you can see it's a very complex situation in washington but i i wouldn't be surprised if most of the conflict around the world is actually being driven by this internal conflict within washington dc

Participant question

itself is that because some of these uh freemasons or knights templars believe that there's like this secret knowledge hidden underneath the temple mount is that like you know they may not come from a jewish background but they have like this belief that you know king solomon's treasure or knowledge is is buried underneath that mount over there right so their eschatology is that if you

Jiang answer

meet certain conditions um you will create heaven on earth and different eschatologist traditions have different understanding of that right so for the freemasons what they want is a world government based in jerusalem so they want to rebuild the temple of solomon which is a will call the third temple and that will be their headquarters for the world government and so they will unify uh with within the uh washington elite hey

Participant

you cut out for like 15 seconds like sure oddly enough i mean it's the second time it's happened this week when like someone talks about something really uh verboten right okay

Jiang answer

yeah right so so yeah so you have these extreme jews um who want to uh see the arrival of the messiah and they believe that a world war three where israel fights the entire world will lead to the return arrival of the messiah and you have the christian zionists who want to uh force the return of jesus okay so these different traditions have different um goals but they all want to see world war three and um unfortunately these different uh secret societies are embedded within the american national security apparatus i've especially the Jesuits, the Freemasons, the Mormons, and these Talmudic Jews.

Participant question

So are they separate groups? For all intents and purposes, do they act in unity here for their own? Because they have the same objective, right?

Jiang answer

They have the same objective. That's correct. So yes, they are different groups, but there are a lot of intersections among them. And they have the same objective, which is to ignite War III in order to achieve biblical prophecy. And that's why we're seeing so much tension right now in the Middle East.

Participant question

Why now? What's so special about 2025 or 2026 if they have to do it right now?

Jiang answer

Right. So I think that within Washington, D.C., within the American empire, you always have these different competing factions, right? So previously, the most powerful faction was the liberal establishment global elite. And they had allies in China. In Russia, in Europe. And because the world seemed fine, they had sway. They had political power. But with Brexit, with the rise of Donald Trump, clearly the global elite, the global order is under strain. And so this creates opportunities for other groups to emerge and try to challenge the supremacy of the global financial elite, which is what's happening today. So it's really... One of opportunism. These are secret societies that have been waiting for centuries to achieve their biblical vision. And now that the world is in chaos, they believe now is the opportunity to strike. And there are... Listen, there are also elements within the national security apparatus in America that want to start a civil war in America.

Jiang answer

Participant question

What's the rationale behind that? Why would they want to start a civil war?

Jiang answer

Well, I mean, it's to overthrow the global financial... elite. That's the main purpose. And to establish their own power base. But also, the biblical prophecy, what's really important is that in World War Three, America is not involved. So in these wars in the Middle East between Israel and the Islamic world, America is not part of the equation. So in order to achieve this prophecy, they need to knock America out of the Middle East. And you do that by starting a civil war.

Participant question

Interesting. Do these secret societies both belong to the global public? The globalist faction and the America First faction? Do they spin across both factions?

Jiang answer

Yeah. So, I mean, if we were to draw a diagram, you would see they're all intermarrying each other. I mean, it's extremely complicated. Each person within these organizations, they have different loyalties. As you say, it's very complicated. There are some... Someone's a Freemason, and then he's also part of Wall Street. He's also a Jesuit. So people at the very top, I mean, they have very complicated lives. They have very complicated loyalties. And they know where the wind shifts, right? They're powerful. They're successful because they're fluid. They're flexible. They're willing to change identity when the political crisis arise. Fascinating.

Participant question

Before we wrap up here, I want to get your thoughts. You kind of alluded to this, but I want to get your thoughts on the Ukraine front. Do you see that escalating as well? Just a couple of months ago, you had these notifications and reports coming out of these hospitals by their governments alerting them to prepare for mass attacks. Now, the report came out of France, but from what I've heard is that it's also... Similar reports have also come out in Germany and across the rest of Europe. So it appears that Europe is ready for something on a mass casualty front. Do we escalate into a full -blown European -Russian war pretty soon or sometime down the line? What's your current prognosis of the Ukraine war? We just had that summit in Bucharest canceled all of a sudden, so it's not looking good there. We have this on and off again talk about sending Ukraine Tomahawk missiles, which would definitely be a no -go for Russia.

Participant question

What's your view on current assessment of things unfolding on that side?

Jiang answer

I would say overall, it's very pessimistic. So if you analyze the situation in Moldova, they recently had to have these elections where a very pro -European politician won a very contested election. And Moldova could possibly be the target. I think that's the 33rd member of NATO. I think that's on the horizon. Romania is preparing to draft young men to fight in Ukraine. And then people talk about Kaliningrad, which is this Russian outpost in Europe. NATO has discussed possibly wargaming a siege on Kaliningrad. Then you have Transnistria, and it's possible NATO lays siege to Transnistria. There are lots of possible flashpoints throughout Europe. My personal belief is that the conflict between NATO and Russia will converge in Odessa. I believe that both NATO and Russia see Odessa as a death trap for the other, in much the same way that Stalingrad was a death trap for the Germans. So what I think will happen is that Russia will slowly but methodically approach Odessa and encircle it.

Jiang answer

And then NATO will have to reinforce Odessa. But the reality is this. The reality is that if you just analyze the military situation in Ukraine, Russia has battlefield dominance because it controls artillery, it has air supremacy, and it has nuclear weapons. So there's only a certain escalation that NATO can achieve via Russia. It has to fight Russia in a ground war. And that's something that Russia excels at. That's something that NATO is really bad at. If you just look at the front lines, these Russian soldiers have extremely high morale. And they feel as though they're fighting a war for civilization. And what's amazing about these Russian soldiers and the front lines is how innovative they are. So they're fighting wars with motorcycles. Ukraine uses a lot of drones, and so they're using thermal cloaking, right? Just a suit. A coat. And it shows you the tenacity, the innovativeness, and the energy of the average Russian soldier.

Jiang answer

On the other hand, in Ukraine, you have high desertion rates. You have all these stories of men being abducted on the streets in Ukraine. So the situation in Ukraine is hopeless. And if you bring in European soldiers, it's not going to improve the situation. They say that America is going to fight Russia in Ukraine to the last. Well, it's possible that America will now fight Russia in Ukraine to the last European. It is not an optimistic situation for NATO. But because NATO is beholding to America, and because America doesn't really see any consequences in fighting Russia. From the perspective of America, it doesn't matter that all these Russians, all these Europeans, all these Ukrainians are dying because it's their war. And so I'm draining the resources of both Russia and Europe. And so it's a very cynical, almost cannibalistic attitude. But that's the one that American policymakers have taken.

Jiang answer

And it's something that they can enforce because they are the empire.

Participant question

Yeah. And to kind of tie it back into your earlier insights about these different factions. We do have like this string where it connects Russia with the pro -America faction or the sovereignist faction in America. But it appears that Russia is at war with Russia. And Russia is at war with the globalist faction. You look at China. China appears to be more allied with the globalists as opposed to the America first group. Let me correct me if I'm wrong. But how can Russia and China both be allies if they're not in cahoots but in some sort of linking with the opposing faction of the other side's enemy?

Jiang answer

Right. So great question. Great point. So what I will say is. Again. We have different factions that fight against each other. They're not fighting against nation states. So remember in mid -August, Trump and Putin met in Alaska. And they accomplished absolutely nothing. In fact, the situation, the global situation got even worse after Alaska. After Alaska, Trump started to threaten Venezuela. Putin ordered more strikes in Ukraine. And Putin and his generals have drawn up a map to eventually go after Odessa. To extend the war to Odessa. So it seems the situation after the Alaska meeting got even worse. But it's because we think that Trump and Putin went to Alaska to discuss peace. But if you change your mindset and you say they went to Alaska to discuss war, then it makes a lot more sense. And why would they do that? Because both Putin and Trump are fighting against each other. They're fighting the global financial elite.

Jiang answer

They both believe that the global financial elite are parasites on their nation state, on their people. And this war will eventually expose the global financial elite. And it will bankrupt and destroy the global financial elite. So it is in the best interest of both Trump and Putin to draw these wars out as long as possible.

Participant question

Right. So Russia and Trump are fighting the financial elite. The global financial elite. Is China allied with the global financial elite? Or are they also fighting them? But if they are, then why are they antagonists? Why is Trump not as cordial with them as he is with Putin?

Jiang answer

Right. So I think that Trump is a consummate showman. That's something that he excels at. He excels at attention capture. At creating a reality TV show for everyone. And one thing that Trump understands is. The basis for any good television show is pacing and conflict. Right. So before Trump's meeting with Putin. He played up the fact that he was best friends with Putin. And then the Alaska meeting achieved nothing. And then he started to insult Putin. So what Trump actually says and does is not relevant. What's relevant is what is in his best interest. What is in the best interest of his faction. So what we're seeing between Trump and China. It's just drama. Eventually Trump and the presidency. They're going to sign a major deal. Major economic deal. That signals a rapprochement between China and the United States. And the reason why is. Trump, Putin, and the presidency all have the same interests. In asserting their national sovereignty.

Jiang answer

And diminishing the power of the global financial elite. And so these three individuals will help each other. They are. They are the three which I call the new triumvirate. These three are really triumvirate. And what you'll see is massive coordination. Among these three as the years go by. Maybe it doesn't really benefit their nation state. But again remember. Their objective is not to destroy each other. Their objective is to sort of destroy the parasites within their own nation states. And the parasites from their perspective are the global financial elite. Which cause massive financial speculation. That bankrupts their nation. But which profits. A minority of people who are transnational. And who have actually no loyalty to any nation state whatsoever.

Participant question

Interesting. So can Russia and China be fully in line with Iran. If Iran is on the. You know. To put it. To paraphrase. Is on the shit list. Of Donald Trump's. Naughty list. Let's say. How can Russia and China be friends with Iran. But at the same time try to be friends with Trump. But Trump is. Enemies with Iran. At the same time. How do we. Yeah.

Jiang answer

Yeah. So. Trump. Doesn't really care. About Iran. Iran is a tool for him to destroy the global financial empire. And what that means is that. He will initiate a global invasion. He will initiate an American invasion of Iran. Because. If the American empire dies. In Iran. Which I think it will. Then. That benefits him. His political faction. Now has more sway in Washington DC. Because. The. Global establishment elite. Has been discredited. For. Launching wars. Remember. Americans think that. Trump. Is. Under the control. Of the. Global. Establishment elite. The neocons. Right. So. If a war happens in Iran. Trump's not. Trump's not. Not going to get the blame. It's the. It's these neocons. It's a deep state. It's a military industrial complex. That's going to get. That's going to get the blame. And that's going to give Trump. A lot more political. Power. And leverage. In Washington DC. To. Promote his own. Domestic agenda. Which is to.

Jiang answer

Basically. Make himself king.

Participant question

Oh. Interesting. So. You think he'll. Do another. Term. Or you think he'll become. A permanent fixture. In. The presidency.

Jiang answer

Well. I mean. Look. He. You know. He's rebuilding. The. White House. And they say. That's going to take. A long time. He has. Said to many people. That he will. Do a third term. It seems. I mean. Look how. How. Energetic he is. Look how. Enthusiastic. Look how much he's done. So far. He sent National Guard. Troops everywhere. You know. There's talk that. National Guard. Will be deployed. To deal with. Civil unrest. By next year. I mean. Like. Just like. Just track what he does. It seems to me. He's clearly intent. On a third term. And. If I were betting man. I'm not a betting man. By the way. But if I'm a betting man. I would bet. That he would. He will get a third term.

Participant question

I see. What sort of. Reason. For civil unrest. Could we see. Next year. Because there was. That leaked memo. I believe. From the. I can't remember. What department. Of the military. Was from. I believe. The National Guard. Actually. Detailing preparations. For civil unrest. In 2026. There was no comments. Made. By. The National Guard. If. If you were to. Kind of speculate. What kind of conditions. Do. Would you see. Next year. In 2026. That would elicit. The need. For. National guards. On the street. To. Bring down. Civil unrest.

Jiang answer

Sure. There are lots of different. Possibilities. Okay. I think. The. Most obvious. Possibility. Is that. Trump. Arrests. A lot of. Republicans. Gone after. James Comey. After. John Bolton. And. There's. A long list. Of enemies. That he wants. To go after. And John Podesta. Is a very powerful. Kingmaker. In the. Democratic. Party. Remember. That both. The Democratic. Party. And the. Republican. Party. They have. Their own. Militias. The Democratic Party. Have. Antifa. The. Republicans. Have. You know. These. White. Supremacy. Organizations. The. Proud Boys. Or. Whatever. And so. If. There's. A situation. In which. Democratic. Leaders. Are. Being. Arrested. By. Trump. Then. This. Can. Have. School. Effects. On. The. Streets. Where. Antifa. Is. Rioting. And. Then. The. National. Guard. Has. To. In. And. Start. Cracking. Heads. Restoring. Restoring. Order. And. So. That's. One. Possibility. Another. Possibility. Is. That. The. United. States. Is. Launching. Wars. Everywhere. Venezuela. Iran. Ukraine. And. Now. They're. Drafting. Young. Men. And. We. Can. Expect.

Jiang answer

Massive. Protests. Very. Much. Reminiscent. Of. The. Vietnam. Era. Where. You. Know. Young. Men. Refuse. To. Fight. And. So. The. National. Guard. Has. To. In. And. Arrest. Them. So. I. Think. That. President. Trump. Will. Meet. In. South. Korea. And. There's. A. State. Visit. Schedule. For. Early. Next. Year. So. I. Think. You. Know. One. Area. I'm. Optimistic. About. Is. A. Report. Between. China. And. The. United. States. I. Think. That. President. Trump. And. Presidency. Have. A. Great. Interpersonal. Relationship. They. Generally. Like. Each. Other. And. I. Think. That. The. Two. Presidents. Will. Meet. And. We. See. A. Approachment. Between. China. United. States. Which. Be. Good. For. Both. The. Citizens. Of. China. And. America. But. That. Does. Not. To. Be. Peace. In. South. East. Asia. Because. North. Korea. Will. Always. Be. The. Wild. Card. If. I'm. A. Korean. Strategist. I. Would. Think. Like. A. People. And. I. Think. That. It. Have. A. Way. To. Be. Peaceful. All. The. World. Because.

Jiang answer

think that both the united states and china are status quo powers they like um the situation as it is and they um they they they want to focus on peace and prosperity for for the people well
