Most connected source reading: **Why World War 3 Is Becoming a Structural Fight**. ## Extracted Topic Notes - And then you have Japan and South Korea, these two powerful East Asian economies, are also reliant on the Middle East for its energy. So another question is, if you're not getting your energy from the Middle East, where % of the world's energy to the Gulf Cooperative Council. Okay? So the Gulf Cooperative Council are certain nations in the Middle East that align politically. So they include Qatar, Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Oman, Iran, Kuwa Okay. So everything over here. Everything. Mexico. Including Greenland, including Canada, including Mexico. Every part of this area belongs to the United States. Therefore you cannot trade with any of these countries wit Really? Yes. So the United States went to Forbes and GM and said, we might need you to start making weapons with your factories. Yes. And they're happy doing this because the product margins are much greater for weapons Right? And then what would happen is that $40 trillion that America has in debt, it would disappear because it would be absorbed by the world. Right? So you can say, look, Trump's an idiot, but if you actually look at a Yes. Okay. So let me explain to you why ground troops has to be sent. Okay. All right. Okay. So in phase one of this war, which started February 28th, which lasted for about six weeks, the intention was to decapitate the No. You don't want to move forward into Iran because it's too large. You don't have enough forces to move into Iran. What you want to do is this. You want to establish forward operating bases in these areas in order to a That's correct, okay. And when you do this, it's a fight to the finish. Why did they do that? They did it because the Americans possess the most sophisticated surveillance technology in the world. Meaning they can easily You can never conquer the United States. The way you defeat the United States is to force it into a civil war, which then kills the king. To get its people to rise up against the leadership? No. You want the Democrats an Then you have the U.S. dollar, right? Because the U.S. dollar allows you to finance everything, and everyone wants the U.S. dollar, okay? Mm -hmm. So, that is the second attack vector. Now, the third attack vector is pro Now we go to the Israelis, Jerusalem, the capital. It's a mixed system. Meaning it's both democracy as well as a theocracy. And it's good in that the Israelis are very creative. But the fundamental weakness is the divisi Why would, sir? Why would the Eurasians? Why would the U.S. try and stop Russian boats? Because in this global outlook, there are two nations that could provide weapons and resources to the rest of the world. They are Ru So I personally believe that this will be a drawn -out process, and there's no real concrete flashpoint. Because not only are Russian shadow fleet tankers being seized, but remember, Russian all -way fighters are being d Mm -hmm. Right? And now the Americans need to expand this war all over the world to try now, to topple the government in Russia. Because the Russians are the main backers of the Iranians. And you're predicting that Russi He would turn 83 years old in the same year that he finishes his second term. This is a man who eats McDonald's hamburgers every day. He doesn't really work out. Yet, on the campaign trail, he's able to go to two rallies What's next in your prediction box? Okay. Okay. This is pretty bad. The world will move towards an AI surveillance state.

Everything you do online is being recorded and it's being inputted into the database to figure out who you are, what you want, and how to control you. And they think this is progress, by the way. This is prog And the greater Israel project covers all of this region here from Turkey, Egypt, Yemen, Oman. So the greater Israel project is like this, okay?

W How do you defend against artillery strikes? I don't know. You don't. But they would fire back, right? They'd get themselves into a pretty ugly war. South Korea have a big military. Well, my people are poor. They're not Which empire do you think is collapsing? The United States empire? The United States empire is collapsing, yes. And who is taking its place? No one can take the place of the American empire. So we live in a unipolar mome Not really, no. Okay. All right. So unfortunately, I have. And these things go on for like thousands of hours.
