Rebels Declare Victory in Eastern Ukraine to Join Russia thanks to Claims of CIA Plots & Fascism
Of course the Pro-Moscow rebels declared a complete victory in a referendum on self-rule for eastern Ukraine. They now want to join Moscow and the entire propaganda has been that this is just a CIA plot and that is what Russia keeps telling its people. Now the CIA plot caused the fall of the Soviet Union as well. Such stories are washed in blood and the entire region is infiltrated with this nonsense. Of course the US has usurped the politicians in Ukraine because the people cannot get ride of the career politicians. But the West will not support Ukraine because the general conspiracy stories diminish the people as dumb stooges all manipulated by global elitists and the CIA.
These stories simply distract the people from seeing the truth that everything is simply collapsing because of major structural faults. The Soviet Union collapsed because of economics. The West will collapse because you cannot borrow forever with no intention to pay anything back. But as long as people can point to CIA plots, they will not look at the real problems of the Sovereign Debt Crisis with 70% of all debts past interest payments, Marxism, and the hunt for capital with governments ready to seize people’s bank accounts. This is the same sequence of events that caused the fall of Rome. I suppose the CIA did that as well using a time machine. I presume the CIA is also behind the bankruptcy of France.
Thailand – Moving toward Civil War?
The head of Thailand’s pro-government red-shirt movement said any attempt by the Supreme Court and the Senate to set up an interim government as called for by the anti-government PDRC would be unlawful and could steer the country toward civil war, The Bangkok Post reported. The leader of the PDRC has called on authorities to establish an interim “people’s government,” after caretaker PM Yingluck Shinawatra was removed from office last week. Suthep said the PDRC wants a response Monday and has threatened to “take matters into its own hands,” the report said.
This is no CIA Plot. This is the people fed-up with corruption.
Moldova Asks to Join Russia
Moldova is primarily made up of ethnic Russians. According to Russia, they havepetitioned Russia to join. This has both Romania and Bulgaria concerned not to mention Western Ukraine. Little by little, Putin is getting his dream to reestablish the Soviet Union.
Comment from a Reader on Gates – The Truth Comes Out When You Leave Office
COMMENT: Dear Mr. Armstrong,
All I could think of was you after listening to Robert Gates’ response to the question about a serious threat to US national security.
BOB SCHIEFFER: And welcome back to Face the Nation and as promised more from our interview with the former Defense Secretary and we pick up where we left off when we asked him if he considered Russia a serious threat to our national security.
SECRETARY ROBERT GATES: I think the greatest national security threat to this country at this point is the two square miles that encompasses the Capitol building and the White House.
BOB SCHIEFFER: How do you mean that?
SECRETARY ROBERT GATES: If we can’t get some of our problems solved here at home, if we can’t get our finances in a more ordered fashion, if we can’t begin to tackle some of the internal issues that we have, if we can’t get some compromises on the Hill that move the country forward, then I think these foreign threats recede significantly into, as far as being a risk to the well-being and the future of this country.
Best wishes.
JM
REPLY: People who have no real exposure BEHIND THE CURTAIN make up wild scenarios that embrace people who are super intelligent and hell-bent upon some world domination or other plot. If they saw what I saw in Washington, they would be unable to sleep at night.
I did my best to try to help the nation. I have testified on the Hill, working on trying to turn the Social Security fund into a national wealth fund that really invested, argued against interest expenditures as far back as the Reagan Administration, and screamed bloody murder at stupid attempts to talk markets up and down not to mention the brain-dead decisions of QE1 and QE2 that bought 30 year bonds in to try to support the real estate market without any comprehension that the debt was not exclusively domestic. This was exactly the same reasoning with Obamacare that everyone had to have maternity leave and guys who were in their 60s unmarried suddenly had their insurance cancelled because they were not covered for maternity leave. Only people who go right from school into government make such decisions because they never had a real job in their life. Yet these are the people who are so smart, they control the world. Give me a break. I have looked into their eyes and found them vacant.
If I wrote to the White House or to the Treasury, I got the personal response. You do not get that without inside knowledge. People can argue and offer opinions all day. If they have not been inside this 2 mile radius of the White House, they have no idea how thinks work or how we are completely out of control with nobody planning anything beyond the next week or month.
I knew Bill Kristol. He was Chief of Staff in the Bush White House for Dan Quayle. When he left office, he admitted to me that it was nothing like he thought. It was battle after battle and worrying that Quayle spelled potato wrong. Now Benghazi has both sides scrambling. You know how bad it is when MSNBC rants how this is a waste of time. They are scared to death they won’t get their Hillary.
Our GREATEST threat is residing right there in Washington, DC. These are the people who are destroying the economy on a massive global scale and cannot grasp anything other than what is immediately in front of their nose. They are incapable of long-term planning. It does NOT EXIST in Washington.,
Uprising Against Corruption is the Global Trend – Get Use to It
Anyone who thinks that Ukraine was just a CIA plot is honestly in serious denial and are blind to the real trend afoot. All governments are declining into corruption on a massive scale and this is reflected in their rising demands for taxation. The American Revolution was – No Taxation without Representation. That is the global trend that is re-emerging after 300 years and that is the length of our revolutionary cycle. The last time this cycle hit was the late 1700s. The only Leader from Maidan in Ukraine to stand up is anti-West and East. He stands for Ukrainian independence – not CIA or Russia manipulation.
Thailand is a classic example of people getting fed up with corruption. The removal of Yingluck Shinawatra as prime minister on Wednesday on the grounds that she had illegally transferred a civil servant to another post was followed Thursday by separate proceedings to impeach her in connection with a farm subsidy program, a process that could result in Ms. Yingluck being banned from politics. The National Anti-Corruption Commission, which brought the latest proceedings, did not clarify how Ms. Yingluck could be impeached from an office that she no longer holds.
The separatist movements are part of this same trend. This is global. Here are the rising separatist movement shown above. We are looking at the break-up of civilization driven by centralized corrupt governments everywhere. Politicians cannot get through their thick skulls that 70% of the national debts are accumulative interest payments. Perpetually borrowing year-after-year and never paying anyone back is totally insane. When I have sat in meetings with various high-ranking officials, they excuse that away saying just bluntly, they are the exception to economics arguing simply because they are government. Those days are coming to an end.
This issue of political corruption that is driving the break-up and uprising within Western and Eastern culture is fundamental to Capital Flows and to the outlook for markets. We need to understand the trend for what we face is the potential for a major CYCLE INVERSION. We must ask ourselves, what will capital do if the full faith in government declines? Capital begins to act like a cannon on the deck of a ship in a hurricane, as Hoover explained.
When the Economic Confidence Model turns down next year, governments are going to attack the people much more aggressively. The socialists can only see that if they grab more money somehow they will survive another day. They do not contemplate what happens if that dream is fulfilled. This is how empires die – not by hyperinflation, but by massive deflation. As they hunt money, the velocity collapses and people stopping investing and therein unemployment rises further and we get the eruption of civil unrest and revolution. Some politicians will start international war to shift the blame to someone else. It is popular in Russia now to claim the collapse of the Soviet Union was a CIA plot as well. If the CIA could really do everything people attribute to it, we should have no problem for they will prevent the collapse of Western society. Sorry – they have no such skills. The USSR and China saw communism collapse because it represses economic growth just as we are seeing right now.
This is the REAL trend. After 2015.75, we will see capital still confused. The flight to quality will initially be to short-term paper of the USA, but that will give way as well. However, we have more than $25 trillion globally in bonds (short/long) and that is a huge reservoir of capital to shift. This idea that government debt is“quality” will give way to reality. That means we will see tangible assets rise precisely as we see during a hyperinflation within a peripheral economy.
The daunting question is formulating when the cycle will flip from Public to Private. The major low intraday is 2009. However, the lowest annual closing is 2002. Under most conditions, a 7 year rally would have produced a high in 2009, but that was overpowered by the ECM and the business cycle inverting that into a LOW. This is suggesting that we are in the inversion process.
A 26 year target from 2002 brings us to 2028. That is the next low on the 8.6 year wave. The Pi target will be 31.4 years from 2002.85 giving us 2034.25 after the 2032 peak. As you can see, we are starting to line up with the lows in the ECM. This is part of the inversion process. Gold rallied AFTER 2007.15 and peaked with the low in the ECM 2011. Its rallies are lining up with the lows.
It is sad to say, but this process was unfolding going into the Fall of Rome. Here we have a picture of 1929. This was the culmination of a Private Wave in which we are in right now. The 1929 target was the equivalent of 2032. Note that at the end, equity did better than bonds.
We are entering this phase. The bulk of analysts keep saying the stock market will crash and burn. The goldbugs say buy gold. The conspiracy people see some new currency emerging like bitcoin that is even less familiar to people than gold. Yet none seem to grasp that if we are headed into the worse part of this economic storm, how is some new currency going to emerge? Sorry, it is back to old-school. Getting off the grid with a diversification between movable and tangible assets.
That means capital will flow to the dollar since the USA cannot be easily invaded as can even Japan and Europe when politicians seek to find external enemies. This will most likely be the last and final 3rd rally due to war that sends the dollar to record highs. This implies tangible fixed assets have a chance of surviving in the USA requiring less of a mix for movable compared to Asia and Europe.
Nonetheless, the US government is as corrupt as any. The trend against the Fed will gather steam. What we saw in Nevada is just the beginning.
