Other RTE articles about the Wars of Wars can be found here.
Twitter is lit up with videos of what might be an Israeli attack on Iran in conjunction with Iranian internal struggles. Understand that I don't plan to comment at a level of trying to sort out the facts because I don't know an interesting set of specifics. However, I do have something to say about the Bigger Picture.
Stepping Back to 9/11 and the Endless Wars in the Middle East
Let us set aside for the moment all the substantial details laid out by Richard Gage and others that make 9/11 look like something more than we were told. It is likely that any one of us has some details wrong, and lacks elements of the Bigger Pictureโunless Dubya's reading, in which case I just want to leave this here.
What I'd like to talk about is what happened next: War in the Middle East. And then I'd like to see if we can work from there to the present. So, here goesโฆ
They sold us war. Many of us did not want it. Some who thought they wanted it later came to regret their support. So, what happened?
Psyop Level 1: We're going to get the terrorists. And WMDs.
Many a patriotic young American found himself or herself in a recruiting office, ready to protect America from foreign enemies. Some came home in body bags or with missing limbsโyou might ask if that last part was an experiment to test weapons and countermeasures.
We did not find WMDs. We might have trained up some terrorists ourselves, but that's a deep topic for another day.
Obligatory reminder: Big Pharma is on trial for funding terrorism in the Middle East based on activities during the Forever Wars.
Psyop Level 2: Bush, Cheney, and Rumsfeld are stealing liquid black gold for American oiligarchs (part b: rare earth metals).
Despite many real ties between the Dick n' Bush regime and the oil industry, and a "Wouldn't it be nice if Santa delivered this to me" list of oil fields in Cheney's hands, the Great Oil Caper never materialized. I'm not saying no money was made on oil by anyone at all, but that didn't foot the $6.5 trillion war bill. Maybe that was due to Western outrage, but I'm headed deeperโฆ
Psyop Level 3: It's about the drug and sex trafficking markets.
Poppies. Bacha bazi. Airports used as lily pads for child sex traffickers and blackmailers out of Southeast Asia. Sure, that happened. And the blackmailers do likely have their hands in present day war games, as Jeffrey Epstein and pals surely could have told you. But the total black market value of the global drug and human trafficking industries since 9/11 does not even reach $6.5 trillion.
The first rule of DoD Fight Club is: don't advertise what you're really working on in shithole nations.
Psyop Level 4: Go off the petrodollar, and we'll kick yer arse!
This one is where I landed for a good long while. And it's tempting. Very tempting. In particular, like Psyop Levels 2 and 3, it's not entirely untrue. From Libya to almost everyone who loses in the grand ole game of Cantillon theft, dollar hegemony is resentedโas is only natural.
Level 5: It's About the Post-Dollar Global Economic System
I talked with the man who goes by John Cullen about this today: The Endless wars in the Middle East make more sense as a containment strategy to keep Russia and China from breaking U.S. hegemony at a time when the dollar is weakening and may lose status as the global reserve currency.
Color Coding:
Red: China/Russia
Yellow: Other BRICS nations
Purple: Ukraine and Syria
Blue: U.S. and nations where the U.S. military has been active since 9/11.
Green: U.S. Allies encircling East/Southeast Asia.
On its face, this (Blue-Green-Purple) looks like a containment strategy, and perhaps rent seeking the gas pipeline flows.
Is THAT worth $6.5 trillion?
Yes. Yes, it is. To the military-banking complex, it certainly isโparticularly if a lot of that bill is being footed by those they seek to contain.
Consolidation of Saudi Arabia
With 320 Saudi princes, ministers, and businessmen arrested and held up at the Ritz-Carlton (Marriott) in Riyadh (a weird coincidence given that Marriott owned World Trade Center 3), Prince Turki bin Modamed bin Fahd fled to Iran in early November 2017. That was days after the death of Prince Mansour bin Murqin in a helicopter crash (intended irony?).
The House of Saud is fueled by Aramco, which is the world's most profitable company, profiting more than $100 billion annually. To put that in perspective, Aramco earns more than four times the profit of China's three largest energy companies, which are themselves three of the five largest corporations in the world by revenue. While the Saudi royals share a pretty fine standard of living, an increasingly large portion of those profits are being invested rapidly in developing other industries to fuel the nation (no pun intended).
Consolidation of power and wealth (MBS confiscating around $200B from the bank accounts of those held up during the purge) allows for Saudi Arabia to act in unison as a rock in the middle of the boundary between the East and West. I mention all this because it supports the model of World War E.
Correcting the Dots
Focus on the blue areas where U.S. military action took place. Sure, the U.S. handed over Afghanistan ("the graveyard of empires") to China (maybe after training the Taliban *cough*), but otherwise, U.S. involvement seems perfectly strategic in a game of "who controls the spoils of the post-dollar belt and road".
Syria and Ukraine are where the hottest action has taken place. This makes sense if you want to control the gas pipelines, and rent seek your way to dominance in the next era.
I'll leave it to readers to imagine why Russia might want to be involved (in Syria and Ukraine) even aside from the Ukrainian biolabs that seem like a violation of the West's agreement not to encroach. Economically speaking, it behooves Russia to create the shortest border to defend, meaning that movement through Belarus, Latvia, Lithuania, and Estonia are potentially on the menu. And it is unclear whether Finland or Scandinavia could be next if Russia succeeds.
Class Exercise: Apply What We Have Learned
(To the Plandemonium)
What levels of Psyops have we seen during the plandemonium? (And do you see why I prefer plandemonium to plandemic?)
Level 1: It was zoonosis!
Peter Hotez and his ilk are still clowning this take, but nary an animal has been found anywhere near Wuhan carrying a CoV that resembles SARS-CoV-2.
Level 2: China did it in the Laboratory with the Candlestick.
A laboratory built under a French Health Minister who is mad, mad, mad about vaccinesโand slipped Andrew Hill $40 million to mumble and babble about. A laboratory whose chief scientist was trained by Ralph Baric. A laboratory that gives the West a Level 2 fallback plan when the Level 1 debate is allowed to fade.
Level 3: It's U.S. Gain of Function research!
A whole lot of people are stuck here right now, and I can understand why. I'll write more about this another time, but recommend reading through the Biowarfare Chronicles for the moment. It seems likely to me that nobody has ever solved all three at once: Engineering,
A virion that infects humans,
With added (gained) malicious attributes that are contrary to the long term survival of the lineage, and
That is replication competent as a quasi-species swarm capable of a problematic pandemic.
Each of these three steps has a low statistical likelihood of success at random, and though science achieved conquering two of the three at once, the probability of nailing all three together (particularly the second two at once) is low for reasons that are both evolutionary based and because the number of ways to get it right gets divided by a denominator that is a filtered four to the 30,000th power, which is an integer with approximately 18,000 digits (which is a number greater than the number of atoms in the observable universeโฆby a wide margin).
Level 4: (I'll leave this open)
Level 5ish: It's about the military-banking complex.
A U.S. bioweapon attack on the world (even largely the West and itselfโฆcurtailing pension and other liabilities ahead of dollar weakening?) is on the table.
One way or another, it's always about the military-banking complex, stupid.
Matthew, I don't know how to reach my friends who were not scientists.
My scientist friends were initially fooled, but a single phone call set them on a course of discovery and, interestingly, we came to similar conclusions after each studied the data. At least we can discuss the topics with clarity and ease.
On the other hand, the repeated nonsense spouted by the "news" has an iron grip on my friends who do not have scientific training.
The part that caused me concern are scientists (not my friends) who are convinced by the nonsense or afraid. I don't understand how they can't grasp the data. Maybe many are not looking?
Not many connect dots like you connect dots.
