Welcome to the Delling Pod with me, James Dellingpole.
And I know I always say I'm excited about this week's special guest, but before you meet him, let's have a word from one of our sponsors.
Gold and silver.
They've been going like rockets recently, especially gold.
I think silver will follow.
But I'm no expert.
What do I know?
I just know that I've got some gold and I've got some silver and I'm very happy to have some.
There are two ways of owning it.
Either you can buy physical gold in the form of gold and silver bullion or in the form of coins, or you can take the monetary metals option.
Monetary metals is a company.
I've had the CEO Keith Weiner on the podcast twice to explain how it all works.
It's a way of owning physical gold and silver, but you get paid interest on your holding.
Now, this is different.
When you hold gold in a vault, you have to pay a fee, a management fee.
But if you buy gold and silver through monetary metals, you get paid interest.
So you're actually, you don't have to pay storage charges.
You're actually earning income on your gold, which is paid in the form of more gold and silver.
It sounds like it doesn't make any sense, but actually it works because the jewelry industry pays money to monetary metals which enables it to pay you interest on your gold.
It does work.
So if you want to buy gold and silver through monetary metals, you go to monetary metals, monetary-metals.com forward slash dellingpole.
You can find out more about it.
Monetary-metals.com forward slash dellingpole.
You can earn up to 4% in their leasing program immediately after funding your account.
You can even earn higher yields if you are an accredited investor via their bond offerings.
They let you earn income on their ounces paid in more ounces of physical gold.
The interest you earn is paid in ounces of physical gold or silver, which you get in addition to any prices at appreciation from gold and silver during the year.
Join thousands of investors earning interest in physical gold and silver every month with monetary metals.
Visit monetary-metals.com forward slash dellingpole to earn more.
Welcome back, E.M. Birlingham.
Showing Vulnerability00:15:48
It's been too long.
It has.
Far too long.
And I suppose eventually we're going to pick up where we left off in the last podcast.
I think we just got to how the Caesars got taken over by their Praetorian Guard.
They got got.
And we hadn't really, I know you're big on the Dutch being the baddest.
We hadn't really covered the bit where they really take over Britain and presumably the world thereafter.
But before we do that, let's have a recap for people who haven't heard your previous podcast.
I mean, you've had a very interesting life.
A bit like Colonel Kurtz in Apocalypse Now.
It was my nickname in the Special Forces course.
There we are.
There we are.
And you, okay.
So you, you spent, spent some time in the military, first of all as a kind of ordinary soldier, and then, when you were older you you you, you apply for the special forces thing when you were running out of time.
I can't imagine you.
There were many years left when you could actually qualify.
I had six months, six months, six months yeah yeah, um.
And this has prompted me to uh, to think that you must be the perfect person to ask a question.
Before we started, I was saying to you, how do you cope with fear?
And the reason this is an important question to me is that, as you know, I like to go hunting on horseback, which is a very, very dangerous activity.
And the weird thing about riding when you're jumping over hurdles and hedges and fences and things is that it's really, really important to attack the jumps with with verve and enthusiasm.
because if you don't, the horse will sense either it will refuse um, or or or run out, which it means.
It means it runs to the side and doesn't do it at all.
Or it refuses and sends you flying over the obstacle, or it gets nervous and thinks this rider is not really keen.
I'm going to put in a, in a, an extra stride and and it does a cat jump.
And cat jumps are really horrible because they're very, very steep and they're very uncomfortable, and so what you want is to be flying at that jump and get the horse to hurdle over it, so it's really smooth and then it's like fly and it's the best thing in the world.
But even for experienced riders, how do you get in the right mindset to to not have fear?
Wonderful question um, one that I have a considerable amount of experience in, having raised horses for half of my life uh, and trained horses working horses for me, but my mother was a dressage um, so you know what I'm saying is true, isn't it about?
Yeah no no no, I have uh, I have uh bitched out at a jump or an obstacle and the horse has responded in the exact ways that you've articulated.
generally because um I, because I worked with working horses, I had larger, more powerful horses.
Usually they would dump you into the obstacle right, sometimes head first.
Um, the way in which and I have to give this to my mother right for any of her flaws she did teach me a lot.
She said you have to trust the horse if you don't trust the horse, don't do this thing with this with the horse.
And so if you trust the horse and you know you've done your training, you've done your riding and you've you know the horse and you have got to know one another and you've steadily increased your difficulties at a certain point, you have to trust the horse As a living creature that has its own mind, it knows better what to do with its body to approach and succeed at the obstacle than you do.
What you say there is very wise.
And it's a conclusion I've reached independently, but confirms what I was thinking, which is never imagine that it's you jumping the jump.
It's the horse that's jumping the jump.
Correct.
So your job is to leave the horse well alone, except insofar as you've got to show it that you're with it in this endeavor.
Correct.
And you've got to position yourself right and you've got to do all the things for the horse.
But I'm just, I'm a passenger at that point.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Right.
And I can't, my neural wiring can't fire the horse's muscles and nerves and everything else properly to do the jump.
Only the horse can do that.
But it is quite literally a leap of faith.
Correct.
Correct.
It's all about faith.
In fact, I think about that as a Christian.
I think that the scriptures tell us that if you have faith, you can move mountains.
And of course, imagine if we'd gone into the fiery furnace like Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego.
I think most of us would have been fried because we wouldn't have the faith that you could go into a fiery furnace and not be burned.
But that is what riding is all about.
It's going to the fiery furnace and think, I'm not going to be burned because God, or in this case, the horse, is going to have it covered.
Yeah.
My first friends growing up, my closest companions growing up were all horses.
All of them horses.
And they're all different.
Your horses are very, very different.
Each horse is different.
They go through changes in their lives just like humans.
You know, we co-evolved closely with horses for at least 9,000 years.
We're very similar, closer than even dogs or cats and humans.
I'm glad you said that.
I mean, I love my dog, and I love my cat, even though he's evil.
But horses, just...
Whole different level.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Learning to be with horses is what taught me how to be with humans.
Okay.
No, and back to what you're saying, right?
Back to fear.
Well, when we're young, we have lots of fear in engagements with other people because we don't know if we're going to say something wrong or get something wrong or they're not going to like us or somebody's, you know, there's all these social anxieties.
Well, the same thing with the horse.
You got to trust the other person.
And maybe they let you down.
You know, I've had horses.
I let them know.
I got in the right neutral position on the horse to let them know you got it.
And we're in.
And then for whatever reason, the horse balked or backed away or, you know, did an extra step or whatever it is.
But that was, I had to trust that the horse knew, right?
The horse knew that that was the timing wasn't quite right.
The weight distribution wasn't right, etc.
And sometimes you would find, okay, well, horse is going through something.
Maybe there's something with its leg.
Maybe there's tightness in its thigh or something.
Or other times it would just turn around, we go back a little ways and jump right over it.
I think it's why the quality most of us look with experience of horses, what we look for in a horse.
Number one is honesty.
Yes.
And then I'd say the second one is not far below that is like, wants to jump.
You want a horse that wants to jump.
You need a horse with spirit, right?
You need a horse with spirit, right?
A little spunk.
Right?
That's what they call it.
The playful horse.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Naughty girl.
Yes.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Some of the best horses I, you know, I've ever known in my life, they would nip you if you, you know, if you gave them a, you gave them a moment, they'd nip you or something, let you know, you know, I'm here.
Right?
Yeah, you don't want to get bitten by a horse.
Well, these ones wouldn't bite, bite you, you know, but they'd nip the back of your arm or your back of your leg or something and just play with you, right?
Like they do with other horses.
And those horses tended to be the ones that were really trusted when you're out all out.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's such a powerful relationship you have.
Yes.
You go for a walk with a dog.
Okay, the dog is your best friend.
He's a companion.
He runs off and sniffs around and stuff.
But when it's you and the horse, you are like a centaur.
You are joined at the saddle, I suppose.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And your lives depend on one another.
Absolutely.
Absolutely.
And this translates to humans, right?
Everything that we learn with horses translates to humans because they are so much like us.
Horses are wired neurologically, neuro-emotively, very much like human beings.
So you see them when they're in a herd.
Because they are herd animals, aren't they?
I mean, they're much happier when they're with them.
And you see that there is a kind of a top dog, a top horse.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And sets all the boundaries for the rest of the herd.
Okay, so I see that.
So I can see sort of it's a bit like, well, I imagine it's a bit like you must have had in the army.
You must have had groups of young men and you know who's kind of who's in charge.
Well, it's the same in school when we're away at school and we're in sports.
Right?
There are natural status hierarchies in all things, and we need to remember that.
It's just more obvious when we see animals.
And then we've been educated, you know, in our fancy educations to believe that organic status hierarchies don't exist amongst humans, but they do.
And we worked all that out on the playground when we were in kindergarten.
Yeah.
Although I have to say, I don't like, I don't like being in groups of men where there is somebody I dislike who's chosen to make himself top dog.
Well, the ones who make themselves Top Dog generally aren't.
And the only way that they get...
what's that i'm thinking of i think i almost my worst experiences in that in that environment have been on stag stag weekends uh where you you find yourself with with men that you know some of whom you don't know very well and they're all out to impress and And the show's got the biggest willy and who can drink the most or whatever.
Never like those.
Yeah, well, generally, those aren't, that's not an organic environment, a situation.
Let the artificial peacocks artificially peacock.
That's not an organic status hierarchy.
That's just a ride a one-off event or whatever.
I tell you, I've suddenly occurs to me why I've had problems with these situations.
Because as you may have guessed, I'm very much like a what you see is what you get person.
I'm very upfront and very honest.
And I don't do that thing that maybe we can come on to this, that a lot of English have been culturally trained to do, which is to hold back and hide behind a mask of reserve, of politeness and stuff.
That shit's never interested me.
But being like me, being kind of upfront and exposing myself means that I'm vulnerable.
If I held back, I'd be much better off.
But not really.
Right?
So if I'm up front, somebody's vulnerable.
I'm the very same way, right?
The whole reserve thing doesn't work for me.
Okay, well, then somebody's going to come after me.
I'm vulnerable.
They're going to come after me in a way that I know.
But if I'm reserved, I don't know how somebody's maybe moving against me or trying to move against me.
I like that.
Right?
Oh, it works quite well, right?
And, you know, generally what will happen is I've had people, and I had this in seer school, actually, getting slapped around in the prisoner of war camp in the schoolhouse.
I've never been a POW, right?
But there's an old saying, one of the arts of being a man meditations in my book, The Art of Being a Man, is sometimes you got to show somebody a vulnerability, see what they do with it.
Right?
Because sometimes, you know, because I'm not good at all things.
I'm just not.
And I get things wrong sometimes.
But go ahead and try and attack me with that.
Right?
Go ahead and try and come after me and attack me with that or reduce me by that.
I know it's a you know, it's a weakness on my part.
You know, not necessarily weakness, but a thing that I'm just not skilled or good at or care to put any time or energy into it.
So you're going to try and use that to tear me down.
I already know it's a vulnerability.
So don't you think that maybe over the course of my life, I've learned how to compensate for that vulnerability?
Right?
So for me, I find it's best to be right out front and right direct.
And the thing that I find, and you probably do as well, is that, you know, very much you think most people have at least two masks.
Some of them have more than that.
They don't know how to deal with somebody who has no masks.
And so they make one up and put it on you.
I've seen that.
Right?
Because they can't believe somebody's that open and vulnerable, you know, that would leave themselves that open and vulnerable.
Well, why?
Because I'm strong enough to do it.
Right?
When somebody shows themselves, you know, an honest man, right?
And some women, but really, this is more of a male thing.
But when somebody is able to show you that they have some gaps and some weaknesses, that takes a really strong man to do that.
And I don't mean to touch you-feely, go to some little man camp and whine and cry.
That's not what I mean.
Right?
But if I got a gap in my armor, right, a chink in my shield, I don't care if you see that.
I've learned how to fight with that and how to compensate for that.
Right?
Praetorians And Legions00:15:56
This gets back to the fear question, right?
You know, how do you deal with fear?
Be without fear.
That too is in your belief system.
Your Christian belief system, right?
Yeah.
Right.
So what does it mean by be without fear?
It's exactly what I'm saying in your belief system, in the Christian belief system.
God's there with you.
In my Norse pagan belief system, it means I know what my weaknesses are.
And the ones that I could fix, I fixed, and the other ones I can't fix.
So I've learned how to compensate so that they don't make me as vulnerable as you think they do.
So I don't need to fear them.
This is not at all how I expected we were going to start the podcast.
And it's been a very nice digression, especially for horsey people, but also for men who are interested in what it's like being a man, how to do it better and stuff.
Every man should be a horse person, by the way, just because of that warrior knight chivalric.
Right.
Yeah, terribly sorry.
Oh, I think so.
I totally think so.
I think any man, well, actually, a woman as well, obviously.
Anyone who has not had the horse experience has missed one of the great things.
Yes.
Ever.
It's something else.
So I wanted to ask you before.
Because I think you and I differ slightly on our veld and Schaung in that you are you kind of pro Trump?
You think he's a goodie?
I don't think it really matters what I think about Trump the man.
What I do think is that the current administration is doing really good work across the broad spectrum and he's doing a good job of keeping that on track best he can as the leader.
Okay.
So what is your take on his Venezuelan adventure?
What's he up to?
And was that a good thing?
It was a necessary thing.
Let's make it very direct and kind of brings it back to the initial conversation we had.
But what we are doing is we are finally ending the shadow British Empire.
Right.
And that's what was, you know, that's Venezuela.
That's, you know, I've written some things.
I've written a book called The Financialist Kill Chain.
I wrote another book since we spoke actually last.
I wrote another book called This Our English Civilization.
We are undoing the last vestiges, you know, the off-the-books black side opium war vestiges of the British Empire.
And that was, you know, Venezuela is a major hub and that Cutter was another one.
We dealt with Cutter first.
Why Venezuela?
Drugs, you know, it's so I call them the devil's legions, right?
Or Churchill's whores, which is another piece I wrote.
Venezuela was the British Empire outpost in the Western Hemisphere for terrorism, for drug running, for gun running, for human trafficking, for money laundering.
How so?
Was there a particular British influence there?
Well, it's not just, it's this whole Praetorian regime system that's been in control of the English-speaking people since 1688 in the Inglorious Revolution.
One of it, you know, so there's the visible licit British Empire, and then there's the invisible, illicit British Empire.
The licit empire is mostly gone.
The illicit empire is still very much with us.
And now we are, you know, that's what killed the Kennedy brothers.
I personally believe it's what killed Lord Mountbatten.
I think Lord Mountbatten was trying to end the Praetorian threat around the crown and free the English peoples, and that's why they took him out.
The illicit British Empire took him out.
That's an interesting take on Mountbatten.
I mean, previously, the line I've heard on Mountbatten is he was bumped off by that establishment because he was such a flagrant pedo that it was getting out of hand.
Well, that's what everybody says, but I don't believe so.
I believe Lord Mountbatten was trying to actually replace the parliament and the illicit British Empire security teams around the royals to break them free.
I do like an alternative conspiracy theory.
Thank you.
Well, if you look at Lord Mountbatten and he was a loyal, loyal royal, and he was the only one that had the right, all the right things.
If we were going to break the Dutch control, and how is that control done through the Praetorian Guard, the House Guard, he would be the only one that could have done it.
And it would look, and you would be able to paint it as, oh, he's trying to mount a coup, right?
A violent coup, etc.
And then, of course, you would besmirch his reputation, etc., etc.
Later on, you're going to give the background to all this, because how the Dutch became the British and etc., etc.
So, okay.
So Venezuela was the sort of the outpost of the British Empire in the Americas.
Yes.
Is that it?
Yes.
Or at least in South America.
Well, in the Americas, we've been removing them here in the U.S.
We still get problems in states like California, New York and others, Minnesota.
They're all held by the illicit British Empire.
Canada ostensibly is the illicit British Empire, but unfortunately it's mostly under the control of Brussels or the lowlands.
Yeah.
Right.
Okay.
So on the subject of the US, where are you on all the kind of the old families, the families that can trace their roots back to the Pilgrim Fathers or similar.
The really old families that are kind of more English than the English.
Are they in your view?
Good is or baddies?
Well, as a Berlin game, I'm one of those.
My adopted family.
We go back to 1650, been in the same part of New York and Rhode Island since the 1650s.
There's always factions.
Yeah.
Right.
And old families.
It's not about wealth, but it's about the pedigree.
Bloodline.
The bloodline.
There's another word that I can't remember right now.
But, you know, the, oh, gosh, it's going out the other side of my mind.
But anyways, you know, lineage.
Well, lineage was just another term.
I can't remember it right now.
Provenants, the provenants.
Right?
Yeah.
They're always, you know, jockeying with one another to be the, you know, the most important voice or influence on where things go.
And that kind of makes sense.
They were here first, right?
Unfortunately, just as they're where you are, where we come from, a lot of these families, unfortunately, have become weak.
There isn't much coherency to them left.
Some, right?
Some they're loyal to, right?
They're loyal to the U.S.
I don't know.
Some are still loyal to the English-speaking peoples.
I think we are trying.
I think on the whole, the old families, the old stock right here, are trying very hard to save this experiment that is this self-rule experiment that is the most reasoned out and expressed form of English constitutional living.
I think we are trying to restore it.
Now, is it riddled through so much?
And have we been replaced in our own lands by so many peoples that, you know, tens of millions of peoples that don't come from here in our backgrounds, etc.?
I don't know.
I mean, even more consistently.
It's part of the evil British Empire.
All this repopulating America with people.
Well, this is Rome.
This is, you know, the illicit British Empire is Rome.
And this is what Rome does and what Rome has always done.
Rome moved populations around inside the Roman Empire, such as my friend Alex Kraner articulates best, such that there's an ant jar with red and black ants in it.
And every time they need a little turmoil or chaos or somebody's being too successful, they stir the jar and then the ants go to battle with each other.
This is an old Roman thing.
The Romans conquered lands with their legions.
They didn't hold the lands with legions.
They didn't have enough legions.
They held the lands by moving populations around and then having conflicts that they could turn on and off so that the people never really could come together and organize and make themselves successful enough to break away from Rome.
So, yes, through the British vector, but this is happening all across the European, it's happening across the entire English-speaking world and all of Europe.
So when I think of who was responsible for all the people flooding across the border, I think of Biden.
I think probably Obama was probably...
Oh, it's been going on for 40 years.
This has been going on for over 40 years.
All those presidents of whatever hue, they were all controlled by the British Empire.
Yes.
But not.
Well, by the Praetorians, right?
The British are just because the Praetorians are Rome.
Venice, through Amsterdam, Rome, Milvian Bridge, Venice, Amsterdam, City of London, Wall Street, rest of the world.
Right.
It's all Rome.
I think we may as well go there now, hadn't we?
With our broad overview.
And then we can go back to the detailed things about what's happening now.
So just remind me where we're talking about in sort of later period Rome, the Caesars had no autonomy.
They were run by their Praetorian guards, weren't they?
Well, actually, the last Roman emperor who was actually in control was Augustus himself.
Every emperor after Augustus, and again, this wasn't, and he's the one who established the Praetorians, right?
The House Guard.
But people need to realize that the Praetorians were not just the emperor's guard.
It was for the whole family.
It was for senators, for nobles, for high net worth individuals, for magistrates, judges, generals.
They all had Praetorian guards.
And what sort of backgrounds were the Praetorian guards from?
Generally, they came from the military.
Sometimes they were mercenaries Brought in from mercenary groups, but they were hand-selected from the military.
And what were they hand-selected for?
They weren't hand-selected by the emperor, by the way.
They were hand-selected by the Praetorians themselves.
So at the end of by time Augustus is gone, the Praetorians are in complete control of Rome.
And then how do they maintain that control?
A sword about that long and poisons.
And yeah.
Okay.
What sort of, I suppose, what sort of social milia do they come from?
Obviously, they weren't quite as elevated as the Caesar families.
But were they sort of, how would you define them?
You couldn't call them middle class, could you?
How would you?
Well, it's the same.
No, no, no.
Well, it didn't matter, actually.
It's, you know, the book I wrote, The Eternal War, these were resentfuls.
These are resentfuls.
These were the same thing we do in special operations, same thing we do in MI6, CIA.
We select for certain neural pathologies.
We select for psychopathy, sociopathy.
Yeah.
And so this is who the Praetorians were.
It's the same as today.
Right?
We select for, not completely, right?
Because if you get too much above a certain balance, then that thing just destroys itself.
You know, that organization destroys itself.
But a good 20-30% of the people we select for are for their sociopathy, their controlled sociopathy and psychopathy.
Because there's kinds of work, you know, the willingness without qualms to assassinate an emperor or your charge, you know, that person that you're responsible for, or one of their family members to keep him in control.
That isn't a normal, healthy person that does that.
No.
So where did their lawyers lie?
Not to the kind of aristocratic to power.
To wealth and power.
Okay.
And they were all, they're all in, you know, again, I might or might not know some of these people today.
Right?
They all know they're expendable.
But they get to have this disproportionate.
They get to be part of an organization and institution that's very wealthy and very powerful and very connected.
And they've always got a job.
They always do fairly well or sometimes very well, you know, financially and economically.
They're not trying, most of these aren't trying to be rich and powerful.
What they want is power and the ability to exercise power.
So obviously wouldn't call themselves Praetorians now.
What would they call CIA, MI6, MI5?
Okay.
CI.
So the three-letter agencies.
So it's correct.
And then mercenaries, and then you have, so there's the on-the-books Praetorians, and then there's the off-the-books Praetorians, and the off-the-books Praetorians are the criminal organizations, the terrorist organizations, which are one and the same, etc.
Cartels.
So you've got the various mafias, the Italian mafia and the Jewish mafia.
Correct.
That's why collectively I call them the devil's legions now because it's, you know, it's the agency, the five eyes, it's the internal security, it's, you know, certain elements and militaries, but then it's also all of the criminal and the violent criminal and all that other.
It's all one organization now.
Okay.
So it's like a sort of military criminal corporation that runs the world.
Well, just think, what did the British East India and Dutch East India Company become?
Because that's who started this.
Giant Corporate World00:06:08
Okay.
Right.
Because remember, the British military was never giant and sizable enough to build out this empire.
So the British East India Company and the Dutch East India Company did it.
They hired mercenaries.
They hired their own private security.
Their militaries, at different points, the British East India Company is mostly done away, folded into the VOC, rebranded as the British East India Company.
But there were times where the rebranded VOC had bigger armies than England.
Yes.
And bigger navies.
Yes.
I mean, it was the East India Company which ran India until, what, the early 19th century?
Yeah.
Well, and one wonders if they're not still running it.
Right.
Okay.
So I suppose what's interesting about not interesting, all your theory is interesting, but what I notice about it is that it doesn't require one to have been born into a bloodline family.
But basically these are interchangeable parts.
It's the system that runs the world.
And the people can come and go within the system.
Well, and they've mostly done away with the bloodline families or weakened them so much because that's the only threat to this illicit off-the-books power structure.
So presumably that would explain, if we go by your theory, that would explain why the Romanovs were taken out.
We're offed.
The Romanovs were offed.
It's why World War I happened and killed most of the old stock noble families of Europe and the United Kingdom and their loyal men.
See, historically, the only thing that stood in the way of this type of illicit power structure is feudalism.
It's powerful, strong princes that, yeah, you go ahead and try and embed that in my people, my culture, my economy, my anything.
I'll kill you.
So in your ideal world, we would restore the feudal system.
Some update, I think it's already happening.
Look at family offices.
Look at where we are.
Look at there's Sean McFate at Georgetown has put a video out and he's done papers, etc., on billionaire warlords.
For all intent, you know, private military contractors, etc., for all intents and purposes, we already are back at feudalism.
We just still have this lingering vestige of the state that we're now working on allowing to collapse.
Okay.
So it is a bit like a bit like Blade Runner or something, where the world is kind of giant corporate.
The nation states don't really matter anymore, that it's beyond that.
Well, actually, it's more like maybe we've gone back to Renaissance Italy, where you've got these Venice.
What we have now is we have Venice everywhere.
Explain to me about family offices.
Family offices.
So family offices are very sophisticated structures that manage family wealth with all the protection, all the legal structural protections, all the covenants, the bylaws, the trust of trusts,
two, three-tier trust structures, management teams that manage various management teams that manage different types of investments in different portions of the portfolio, different portions of the family, that wealthy family, there's single-family family offices and then there's multi-family family offices, right?
So think a single family family office, you know, a billionaire family or a centimillionaire family, you know, a single.
So maybe a count, right, in the old English system, right?
Or count or below, you know, baron, account, etc.
And then you have the multifamily family offices, which are like dukes and earls that have counts and barons and everybody else underneath them, right?
Other families.
And what is this?
This is, this is feudalistic system.
It's just not based off of geography, you know, geographic land.
It's based off of investment portfolios, which do have some land.
You know, they have a whole mix of assets, but they have a mix of assets all over the world.
So what we've done is we've virtualized feudalism.
Global warming is a massive con.
There was no evidence whatsoever that man-made climate change is a problem, that it's going to kill us, that we need to amend our lifestyle in order to deal with it.
It's a non-existent problem.
But how do you explain this stuff to your normie friends?
Well, I've just brought out the revised edition of my 2012 classic book, Watermelons, which captures the story of how some really nasty people decided to invent the global warming scare in order to fleece you, to take away your freedoms, to take away your land.
It's a shocking story.
I wrote it, as I say, in 2011, actually, the first edition came out.
And it's a snapshot of a particular era.
The era when the people behind the climate change scam got caught red-handed, tinkering with the data, torturing till it screamed in a scandal that I helped christen ClimateGate.
So I give you the background to the skull juggery that went on in these seats of learning where these supposed experts were informing us.
ClimateGate Unveiled00:04:00
We've got to that now.
I rumbled their scam.
I then asked the question, okay, if it is a scam, who's doing this and why?
It's a good story.
I've kept the original book pretty much as is, but I've written two new chapters, one at the beginning and one at the end, explaining how it's even worse than we thought.
I think it still stands out.
I think it's a good read.
Obviously, I'm biased, but I'd recommend it.
You can buy it from jamesdellingpole.co.uk forward slash shop.
You'll probably find that one.
Just go to my website and look for it, jamesdellingpole.co.uk.
And I hope it helps keep you informed and gives you the material you need to bring around all those people who are still persuaded that, oh, it's a disaster.
We must amend our ways and appease the gods, appease Mother Gaia.
No, we don't.
It's a scam.
Which do have some land, you know, they have a whole mix of assets, but they have a mix of assets all over the world.
So what we've done is we've virtualized feudalism.
Right.
And it's never going back, right?
Because there's no, you know, unless we bring down common law and physically repossess, you know, we the people repossess the land.
This is, this is set, this wealth that's been taken and stolen, wealth that's been earned in other cases.
I don't want to say it's all been stolen.
Yeah.
But this is all in these very sophisticated structures.
And I know some of the people who do these family office structures, brilliant people, right?
I know the ones that done it for the royals there.
We have returned to feudalism structurally.
We just haven't returned in any in all the other ways.
And the the thing that's really, but really matters to me the most, um is we also have to restore nobility.
You know the nobility is a word, not as a, you know um hereditary.
You know concept and idea, but you know what does it mean to be noble?
Right, you know this mute.
What is nobility?
Nobility is noblesse oblige.
It's this mutual obligation between people and prince and prince and prince and people and people.
I agree.
That's a good principle on which to.
If you're going to have an unequal society, which you are inevitably, it's inevitable.
Yeah, and noblesse oblige is clearly the, the sense that those who who are privileged and lucky enough to have been born with lots of money should have a sense of obligation.
But we've we've seen this completely twisted.
Where we've got this?
This concept called philanthropy.
What philanthropy is is is a combination of extreme megalomania um, like Bill Gates breeding malaria mosquitoes or zika mosquitoes, so you can um with with tax dodging.
There's absolutely and and and a bit of child trafficking, paedophilia and whatever underneath.
Well, but even the ones that get it right unfortunately, you know.
So the first son would take the title, yeah, the second son would go into the martial field yeah, and the third son would go into the priesthood yeah well, the second son doesn't don't go into the marshal anymore.
That's for the peasants, right.
And so the second and third sons go into philanthropy.
It's a jobs program and daughters right, but it's a jobs program for lesser children, okay.
So this is.
This is where all the world's well, most of the world's wealth lies correct, in the family correct correct, and it's growing all the time.
Have you got the Family office?
Pursuing Philanthropy00:02:31
I do not.
I do not.
I start.
My little brother wanted a sense that if he ever achieves his level of world domination well it's, it's, it's absolutely essential in the modern world.
Right, you have to do it if you're a man of any substance.
For me uh, when the brain injuries hit me really bad in 2017 2019, I took a fundamentally different turn and and turned away from billion dollar, you know, from building the vast investment portfolio in wealth.
So, because you found it was sterile and I watched my, I watched the family office that I was born into, this old family, go to war with itself when I was a child I was born into, that war destroyed my Mother by the time she was in her mid-20s.
She's never recovered.
She's now in her late 70s.
So I I grew up in this, this ugly nasty, you know world and And money has never motivated me.
I thought I had to.
That's what I pursued for 20-some-odd years, 30 years, because I thought that was what you're supposed to do as a good son of old families.
But I don't like money.
I don't care about it.
I understand it.
I respect it.
But it's not the pursuit of my life.
From 2017, 2019, when the traumatic brain injuries were really bad, I didn't know if I was going to be alive.
I was ludicrously suicidal.
You know, I had a young daughter, though, so she needed her father.
So I was not going to do that.
Well, thank you.
But I stared at the gun every night for years.
Did you?
Yeah.
When the brain injuries, I finally got diagnosed, finally started getting some treatments with the right people.
Everything started to turn around, even within a couple of days.
I mean, it took years to recover, but the faith and confidence that, oh, wow, this can get better changed everything, right?
And so while I was developing, you know, I had lost most everything by that point.
I kept investing, kept building, you know, etc., but I just couldn't maintain anything.
I couldn't sustain anything.
I could barely speak some days at all.
I had to make some decisions about where my life is going.
I have to rebuild literally from nothing up.
And where am I going?
Am I going after wealth?
Am I going after money?
Why We Seek Hierarchy00:14:07
Or am I going after noblesse oblige?
And I don't need money or wealth for that.
And quite frankly, I had two very wealthy friends say this to me as well.
One of them is a mentor, Adam Robinson, right?
And they both said to me, you don't need the money.
You know all the people with the money.
You follow your path.
You do what you need to do, you know, that you believe is the contribution you're supposed to make to the world.
If you need money, you've got to talk to somebody.
Right.
Okay.
The people you know who've got lots of money, what are the drawbacks of having lots of money apart from the family wars that they start?
Yeah, well, the worst one is they have Praetorians.
Oh, okay.
They attract Praetorians inevitably because the Praetorians are, the Praetorians are going to make sure that they have some access and control over that pool of wealth.
The second piece is, and there's two ways that they do that.
One, they either put their own people, doesn't have to be the whole team, but at least one or two of their people in your security team.
And or they make sure they got one or two of your gatekeepers.
This is the biggest problem I've run across for decades with ultra-high net worth: gatekeepers.
And there's always one or two of the gatekeepers who works for the Praetorians.
Is that so?
So you've got necessarily, inevitably, you've got someone in your financial entourage, as it were, in the structure who is there to betray you or at least to undermine you and keep you in line.
Yes.
Yeah, and maybe often it's just passing information, right?
But the point being is that you have somebody within one step of you put a blade between your fourth and fifth rib or put a little drops of something into a drink at any time.
As punishment for what?
Well, for your not doing, for your getting out of line of the regime in how you use your wealth, or if you decide to use your wealth and influence to bring down the Praetorian regime.
Right.
Okay.
And they kill people regularly.
Regularly.
High net worth, Ray Daliel's oldest son died in a car accident after his middle son, Paul, who I know was hit and running in New York that nearly killed him, put in the hospital for six months.
David Rothschild died suddenly of a heart attack with no history of heart problems.
Lady Diana.
Right.
So, you know, King George V or sixth.
I always get those mixed up.
There's so many Georges.
Right.
Yeah.
So what we have to understand is that, you know, Patton, Lawrence, Sir Lawrence, right?
All kinds of, yeah, T.E. Lawrence, right?
People get killed all the, you know, these elites have family members that get killed all the time.
Look at the Gettys, the kidnapping of the Getty and, you know, the ears sent back and then Patty Hearst, you know, all of this.
Okay.
What level of wealth do you need to achieve before for them to take an interest in you?
What's Praetorian?
Right, it's a wonderful question.
So it's not necessarily about wealth.
Okay.
Now, that's true.
But more what it's about is your relationships.
What is the nature of your relationships?
And what is the nature of your credibility in the community, your voice in the community, right?
In the broader community, in your peer group and with the people.
Right?
Because the fundamental way in which these power structures are mostly maintained is they keep the people and the princes apart.
They keep the people and the princes constantly at war with one another.
And heaven forbid a prince might ever actually build a solid relationship with the people because that's an unstoppable force.
So that's more what they're looking for.
It's less about money.
It's more about, you know, a princely person who has the noblesse oblige and warfighting capacity, you know, this broad spectrum, seven elements of power, warfighting capacity, and can genuinely build a bond and creation with the people that is Praetorian, you know, that is immune to Praetorian threats.
Yeah.
This is why they brought down Napoleon.
This is why all the powers of Europe were set against Napoleon.
It's also Napoleon, if you read some of his writings, this is why he did what he did.
So you think he was a goodie?
Napoleon was a goodie.
You want a perfect example of how he's a goodie.
Much of what Napoleon, the changes, you know, the modifications to the French system, power systems, education systems, legal systems, etc., that Napoleon brought about are still with us today.
Yeah, he brought in metric.
I don't think we like metric.
Yeah, well, it gives us another reason to hate the French, right?
Yeah.
You're with me on this one.
Yeah, What I like about your theory is it explains, for example, all those brave African leaders during COVID who refused to kiss ass to the World Health Organization.
President Magafuli of Tanzania, what a hero.
He gave his life for the kind of things that you and I and our listeners would probably identify with.
He wasn't going to take it.
He took the Mickey out of the system.
He did COVID tests, PCR tests on what, a guava?
Because he wasn't buying into it and he got off for it.
So you're saying that that happens across the board?
Across the board, and it's been going on for centuries upon centuries upon centuries.
Okay.
And it doesn't require any kind of family history to join.
I look at people like Mark Carney, for example.
I don't think Mark Carney comes from a particularly bloodliney background, does he?
He's just one of those people that seems to have wormed his way into the patrol.
I mean, he's drawing card, isn't he?
Well, he's not a guard.
Praetorian guards, the guard part, are the ones that do the killing, the control, and the killing.
The Praetorians is the regime, right?
This illicit, you know, hidden financialist regime.
Carney is a manager, you know, one of the senior managers in that regime.
Yeah.
Just like Mertz in Germany, just like Larry Fink here in the United States, right?
These guys are just management.
Okay.
But there must be a CEO of this evil organization.
No.
No, no, no.
See, well, there isn't, but there is a clearinghouse, and that's the BIS, the Bank of International Settlements.
Okay.
Right?
You don't want to see.
So that's the thing.
That's how these think of the Praetorians more like a self-healing mesh network or a virus.
Or a virus.
A virus doesn't need a CEO.
Every virus, you know, every one of the individual, you know, a little viri or whatever.
I don't even know how to, I'm terrible at my Latin anymore.
Right?
Each one of them already has the code for the whole.
Right.
And so they're just following out their programming.
This is what resentfuls are.
They don't need a master.
They're wired and coded for this stuff.
And they're always fighting amongst each other for dominance, top dog, etc.
But the reason for why this is all still with us and so powerful is because we keep looking for the top dog.
We keep looking for a hierarchy.
There isn't one.
It's just, it's this amorphous, fluid mesh system.
And everybody in it is disposable.
Now, not everybody's interchangeable because you do need the folks at the higher level of the mesh or the higher capacity of the mesh need to be highly capable.
But they're just, they're just, you know, malevolence doesn't need a boss.
Okay.
And so it's quite meritocratic.
Oh, yes.
Oh, yeah.
Actually, it is the ultimate meritocratic.
Right?
Yeah.
The ultimate.
It's really, I mean, a bit like one hears about the organizations like the mafia, that in order to progress, you've got to demonstrate your willingness to do stuff that other people will be too squeamish to do.
And if you've got that.
You've got to do that, but what you also have to do is you have to demonstrate your ability to survive.
Oh, okay.
More so.
Right?
There's a great movie with Al Pacino called Carlito's Way.
Have you ever seen it?
Do you know what?
I started watching it the other night and I didn't get very far with it for whatever reason.
Yeah, he tries to retire and he can't.
Yeah.
Well, in that, I don't want to give it away.
It's a wonderful thing.
Okay, so I'll leave it be.
So, point is, is this, right?
It is meritocratic, and it's less about your, yes, it's, you know, that's what most of this pedophilia stuff is about.
It's that it's having dirt on each other, right?
Right.
But the real test for people who rise up in this, you know, meritocratic Praetorian system is they survive.
Is they can survive all the different seven elements of power, you know, attacks that come against them always from the inside and outside.
Okay.
And you want a prime example: the Clintons.
Bill and Hillary Clinton.
Yeah.
How the hell are they still, right?
That is.
Well, I mean, I suppose my line on Hillary Clinton would be that she's well in with the Mothers of Darkness.
I mean, she's part of that satanic network.
She is, of course, but they're all so they are all at war with one another always.
And they're looking for anytime there's weakness and they can sniff weakness in one of their own, they'll go after them.
See, we don't live in that kind of world.
I've seen it.
I've been near it.
Yeah.
But we don't live in that kind of world.
Oh, it's not much fun.
No.
You've got to presumably love raw power more than anything.
Yeah, I don't.
So give me a second.
I wonder if it's a love of power or a compulsion to power.
Most of these people that I've run across from the time I was just a child seem more to have a compulsion than a desire.
Right.
So it's like a certain mental disorder in a way.
Yeah, it's a pathocracy, is what I call it.
I've written on a piece on that.
I get that.
Hence your earlier point about it selecting for psychopathy.
Yeah.
These are basically psychopaths.
Yeah, so sociopaths and psychopaths, yeah.
And the low-level ones, narcissists.
And how us kind of little folk?
The hobbits.
Yeah.
How do they view us?
Prey. Useful prey.
We're prey animals, right?
Yeah.
If they can get wool from us, they'll get wool from us.
If they need some, you know, some labor from us, they'll get some labor from us.
If they need meat from us, they'll kill us.
Right.
Do they for that reason?
I mean, do they marry into us ever or was that?
Yeah, so it's an interesting thing.
So.
So, yes, the pathocracy is a bit hereditary, but it also shows up just rammed in genetic recombinants out in the populace.
That's why they're always recruiting, Always recruiting because they've got to replace their own numbers.
They also tend to not have a whole lot of children of their own.
Right?
Because, you know, when you are so engaged in malevolent activities, you don't have a whole lot of time for children and nurturing and loving and all that other stuff.
Some do, some families do.
Right?
But then you wind up sometimes with you got three kids and two of them turned out to not be like you at all and don't like you and don't want anything to be to do with you.
Engaged In Malevolent Activities00:15:31
So what did you do then?
Bump them off?
Well, sometimes.
But generally, the kids and the families just split apart and they have a you know a beef and a rift and it never gets healed.
Right.
And often kids will go to drug, you know, the children will go to drugs or alcohol or other things and or extreme sports or something else and they wind up dying early anyways.
Yeah.
That's a coping mechanism, right?
Yeah, it's a sort of self-culling system.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
Okay.
Where would well, you're going to tell me about how the Dutch work were the baddies, and then they became morphed into the British Empire.
Is that right?
Yeah, so this is all still Rome, right?
Everything, it's all still Rome.
Now it's just, it's the hidden and invincible or invisible Rome.
This is really what Henry VIII was doing, kicking the Roman Catholic Church, the Holy Roman Catholic Church, out of England.
It was removing this, you know, trying to remove this infrastructure.
And then, you know, there was a running, you know, unconventional war waged by the Vatican in England, you know, in the United Kingdom, what would become the United Kingdom, starting in the 1500s all the way into, you know, all the way up through to Inglorious Revolution.
That's what Cromwell was fighting.
Now, then the question becomes one of, well, who funded the Puritans and sent them back to England?
Right?
And who funded, you know, so the Dutch learned from the Venetians.
The Venetians were the Praetorians out of Rome.
And that whole Praetorian system's been evolving for over 2,000 years.
Russia finally kicked it out.
China's finishing up kicking it out.
And we in the United States are just beginning.
I hope you're right.
I hope all this is your theory is correct.
But okay.
So tell me about the Inglorious Revolution.
It was a corporate hostile takeover.
The Praetorian-owned and backed Dutch East India Company did a hostile takeover of the British East India Company.
And they sent, you know, William of Orange with Mary, I think.
That was the daughter, Mary Stuart, James II's daughter, sent them over to England with an army at the invitation of the parliamentarians, which the Dutch had already bought and paid for, and many of the magistrates, you know, the judges, the judiciary that had been bought and paid for, and seven nobles.
Well, what was happening with those seven nobles?
They were the lead investors in the British East India Company.
The British East India Company was insolvent.
So they welcomed a hostile takeover from the, you know, the VOC because they got shares in the V, you know, there's conversion of British East India Company shares to the VOC.
And then the VOC did a reverse merger and became the, you know, then Brandon.
Who were the nobles?
I don't remember the families.
You could look it up fairly easy.
Yeah, there was seven, if I remember correctly, six or seven.
I think it was seven families that, you know, welcomed William, right?
This must have been very odd for the English people to live through this experience.
Well, they'd just come through Cromwell and they'd come through the English Civil War.
And, you know, all of that was set up in Queen Elizabeth's time, this taking down of England.
Yes.
Right?
John Dee and Francis Bacon before.
Correct, correct, correct.
And then Charles I, right?
You know, James, unfortunately, His Majesty James I never really understood the Englishness and became English.
Charles I did.
He tried very hard.
In fact, Cromwell went on and did most of exactly what His Majesty Charles I was saying for the exact same reasons.
But that was after he already beheaded the king and melted the crown down, right?
But all this was set up, you know, this eventual, you know, so on the continent, the concepts and ideas of royalty and monarchy and feudalism were undone with the Westphalian system that was put in place in 1645 and 1649.
Well, those efforts were started in what would become the United Kingdom, but in the British Isles in the late 1500s, early 1600s, just like it was on the continent.
However, Cromwell came in and threw a spanner in.
And so it wasn't until 1688 when this project, this end of feudalism, begin of, you know, beginning of financialism system was put in place in England.
And that's what the Inglorious Revolution was.
And they sent William and Mary over with an army.
That army wasn't there to conquer the English.
That army was there with the security to make sure that the king and queen did what they were told.
And that security apparatus has been in place in the palaces ever since.
And if people take a step back and really look at our history, look at how many royals have been killed and how many royals have died when they shouldn't have.
Right up to today.
Who are you thinking of?
I personally think Her Majesty was bumped off.
This is what they do.
They get as much out of them as they can.
And then when they get old enough and they're ready for a transition, they bump the old one off, like her grandfather.
Right?
It's even openly stated that they euthanized her grandfather, George V or VI, right?
Again, or eighth or whatever.
George X, whatever.
George VI was the father.
The father.
Okay, so it would have been George V. Yeah.
So also, you also have to look at other noble houses and what's happened with them.
Right.
How many of their kids have been bumped off?
You have to look at elites.
You have to look at judges.
You have to look at, right?
So, and even just leading figures, again, like Lawrence.
What was the threat of Lawrence?
Well, Lawrence had spent all these years, all this time in the Near East and had built all these relationships that would have worked of the restructuring and rebalancing of the borders, right?
So, undoing Sykes-Picot in something that would work.
Well, that's not what was wanted.
What was wanted by the French and the English was the ant jars that had been created specifically so that the oil wealth that would accrue to those peoples, 80% of it would have to be spent on internal defense.
Right.
Yeah.
Instead of on building universities and a flourishing of Arab culture and society, they spent the last century plus spending about 80% of the wealth made on internal defense.
So from the Inglorious Revolution, you already had the Bank of England didn't you set up in was it 1666?
That happened 1694.
So that's six years later, yeah.
And what happened?
Something bad stuff happened in 1666.
Three, six years.
I don't remember exactly.
You'd have to say that.
Well, there was the fire in London, but I think some of the structures were established at that point.
Yes, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Well, it was cleaning the way.
It was doing the Nero, right?
The Nero thing where you're clearing out.
Because the industrialists, you know, that's really who was behind this was the industrialists on the Thames River, the Thames, the Thames, the Thames, right?
Who were all backed by Venetian Dutch banking monies.
And they needed the land and they needed the properties.
You know, they needed the space to build industry.
And so what do you do?
I mean, they just did this in California here recently.
You burned down a bunch of residences.
Yeah, right.
And then the city, the state, or whatever it is, comes in and buys it pennies on the dollar.
They did that.
And now it's available.
Directed energy weapons.
They didn't have directed energy weapons in 1666.
They had to use special primitive match technology.
Well, they actually used primitive match technology in the Palisades as well.
They've arrested two people finally for setting the fires.
Did they?
So are you not of the directed energy weapons?
You don't think so?
We do have targeted energy weapons, but not like that.
Okay.
HARP's nonsense.
I'm an electrical engineer, computational engineer, PhD level.
You don't believe in HARP?
Oh, HARP's nonsense.
Absolute nonsense.
Absolute nonsense.
Well, I can tell you now that some of the viewers and listeners are going, I don't trust this guy.
They cannot trust me as much, but let's compare my physics and mathematics and engineering background with yours.
If you can hang in that conversation, wonderful.
I'll hear.
But most people running around talking HAARP and all of this have absolutely no requisite background whatsoever.
You don't think the weather is manipulated?
No, we don't have the energetically.
So here's two things that people really, really need to understand.
Everything is still bound by the laws of thermodynamics, the conservation of the laws of conservation of energy, and Maxwell's equations.
Everything.
And we cannot control the weather.
Just because we do not have the energetic capacities, right?
This is one of the many reasons why I enjoy having you on my podcast.
Because you could be talking complete bollocks or you could be talking absolute sense.
And I have no way of telling.
Well, think this.
Think this, my friend.
Think this, right?
Think the Pharaohs maintaining power by convincing the people that they had the ability to control the flooding of the Nile.
It's the same thing today, right?
I wrote something about the Panopticon Con.
I've written several pieces on the great deception.
If you have a $10 trillion economy based off of, you know, ostensibly a $10 trillion, I'm just throwing a number out there, right?
A $10 trillion economy that's all built on a lie, your power, your capacity to do this, this, or this.
Would you not spend $5 trillion a year faking it?
Would you not spend $8 trillion, $9 trillion to fake it?
I think that if they have the power to control the weather, we're talking about really bad people and megalomaniacs, you said yourself.
Yes.
If they can, then they will.
It was correct.
But if they can't, they'll fake it.
Yeah, well, as they did with the moon landings and stuff.
Well, I don't know about that, but I think they probably did land on the moon.
But so many other things.
Right?
I want to be careful with the conspiracies because some things, conspiracies do work.
I was sent to school by the U.S. government for almost two years to learn how to do conspiracies.
That's what unconventional warfare is.
Right.
Quite literally.
Right?
It's what the CIA is.
Their whole job is to do conspiracies.
Yeah.
Right?
Again, quite literally.
I mean, like, okay.
So to think that conspiracies aren't happening is ludicrous.
Right?
But one of the ways.
You're preaching to the choir with that one.
Yeah.
But, and that they haven't been going on for a very, long time.
Yeah.
Right.
We got sidetracked now onto this.
Excuse me.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
We need to get back to this corporate hostile takeover in 1688.
So, yeah, even though we don't believe in viruses, these virus-like people, these Praetorians, from this point on, they were running Britain, which a century later was the birthplace for the Industrial Revolution.
Well, okay, so let's be careful there a second, actually.
It already was the birthplace of the Industrial Revolution.
What they were using is the flow of water.
They were still using water power.
That's why they were on the edge of the Thames, right?
It was later, a century later, that the steam engine came along, but industry was already growing, already beginning at the end of Elizabeth's reign, Elizabeth I's reign in London.
Yeah.
Right?
It just didn't, we didn't have steam power and those types of things that come along later.
But the precursors for all that were already in place.
And so the Dutch Venetians come in with monies.
They buy parliamentarians.
The guilds are seeing the guilds are going to have more power, right?
Think unionized labor, because that's what the guilds were.
And if there's more, if there's this industrial base and this growing industrial base, then the guilds will have more power because these industrial folks, the industrialists will need skilled labor.
And the only people who trained the skilled labor were the guilds.
So think Teamsters unions.
Think mafia.
So the guilds, you know, the bully boys, 10,000 of them in London at the time, were used by the parliamentarians to cause havoc against anything that was royal, royal prerogative, et cetera, on behalf of the industrialists.
So the various royals through this period, what are they doing?
Are they at this point puppets incapable of doing anything?
They're in gilded cages.
Islam vs. Constantine00:11:34
The one that I think I suspect, and I can't prove this, but I just something about it keeps coming back.
I think George III helped the American colonies break free.
Okay.
I think that was his way, you know, the non-compass mentis periods.
It's astounding what you can say and do and who you can talk to when you're crazy.
That it's not threatening.
He's just crazy.
What is he talking about?
Although presumably he hadn't got any power by then because he had a sort of regent.
Correct, correct.
But then he can talk to people and he can have conversations, etc., and he can give guidance and he can say things.
And when he is, you know, when he is compass, right?
Or however, again, my Latin's terrible.
It's been decades.
But when he is sane and he is ostensibly somewhat in power, then he can pull little levers and move things as much as he can.
I suspect that His Majesty, King George III, and some of the other royals who, oh, by the way, owned big tracts of lands here in Americas, helped.
If they had wanted to, if the British Empire had, you know, at that point, the British Empire was beginning, but if the English had wanted to, they could have crushed the colonials.
Crushed them.
Right?
So I suspect very much that this was like Byzantium out of Rome in the second century.
I suspect America was set up to say, to one day, break the English free of this shadow, you know, power, Praetorian power structure.
Because this exact pattern is exactly how Byzantium, Constantinople, become Byzantium, broke free of Rome itself, which culminated in the Battle of Milvian Bridge in 312, which ended the, you know, formally ended the Praetorians.
Ah, everything connects.
I see.
Yes.
Right.
Right.
Because we have to remember that, you know, unlike the foppish, you know, the image that's given of our nobility and elites of being foppish, you know, libertines, most of them were not.
Most of them were extraordinarily well-read individuals who really understood power and who lived history because it was their family's history.
It was a living thing.
I think we talked about the Battle of Milvian Bridge before, but tell me about it again, because I feel it's a battle one ought to know about.
What was the year?
This is 312, 311 into 312.
It took over a century to build up power in the Eastern Empire, independent of the Praetorians and the Praetorian regime and power structures, and then to draw the Praetorians out by being overconfident, cocky.
They elevated their own emperor whose name I can't remember.
I'm terrible with these things.
But Constantine was finally able to draw the Praetorians out in military ranks with the puppet emperor and defeat them at the Battle of Milvian Bridge in 312.
And then he destroyed the Praetorians, killed them, just killed mass numbers of them and disbanded them and Articulated that if any of them ever tried to rise to power again or come together, that he would kill them.
And he did.
And some of them fled to the lagoons of what would become Venice.
Right.
So we like Constantine a lot.
We like Constantine a lot.
Right.
Was this the battle where he had the cross on his correct?
Correct.
Yeah.
Well, presumably the other side did as well have crosses, didn't they?
Because they were presumably representing Rome.
No, but Rome wasn't.
You know, Rome didn't really become Christian, Christian Rome till 1054 in the 1054 schism.
Now, they were working on building from the 600s forward as Rome was, you know, restoring itself, Rome, Rome proper, right?
But Rome, Rome itself, you know, the Holy Roman Catholic Church didn't come about until 1054.
Right.
Okay.
And where are you in all this on the church?
Good is or baddies?
The Catholic Church?
Yeah.
Baddies.
Very baddies.
Right from the off.
Right from the beginning.
Okay.
Well, beginning in about so what did Constantine do?
Constantine virtualized the Roman Empire in the form of Orthodox Christianity.
And Rome, Rome, Rome, realized the power of that, this unconquerable power of that.
And so they tried to replicate that with, you know, out of the Vatican, the Holy See, the Roman Catholic, the Holy Roman Catholic Church.
That process, that conflict began in the 600s, right, the 7th century, and would rage between the East and West for a couple centuries until Rome was finally able to get all of its elites to agree to this power structure through the Vatican, through the Holy Roman Catholic Church.
And then that was established to launch the Crusades.
The Crusades were not launched against Islam.
The Crusades were launched against Constantinople and Byzantium.
Right.
So the Catholic Church is Praetorian through and through.
Through and through from its very inception.
Okay.
Yeah, yeah.
And what about the schism?
What about Protestantism?
Is that a good thing or a bad thing?
I think it's a bad thing.
I think Protestantism was a way in which, so if you have princes that are not going to bend the knee to Rome, but you still want to control them, it's what I would do as a Green Beret, right?
And by the way, Jesuit-educated Green Beret.
I went to Jesuit schools.
Right?
They're really baddies, the Jesuits.
Well, they're the Green Berets of the Catholic Church.
I don't want to call them baddies or goodies, right?
Because they are the Green Berets, the CIA and the Green Berets of the Catholic Church.
And they're brilliant at what they do.
We learn most of our skill craft from them.
Do you?
What?
In Special Forces?
Yes.
Most of what we know how to do, learning language, hearts and minds, culture, relationships, stability, operations, foreign, all of this stuff, we learned from the Jesuits.
Right.
One form or fashion.
But point being is this, is if I'm if I have a recalcitrant prince or king who's not going to bend the knee to Catholicism, to the Vatican, I'm going to do a splinter belief system, splinter religion, splinter ideology that I still have control over.
That's going to look like it's completely against, and I'll drive these factions to war, which is exactly what happened for several centuries.
Right.
Okay.
Where are you on the Jews?
Whipping boys.
See, when we were driving, when Europe was being prepared for war against Byzantium, with the, you know, the impremature of it being against Islam, right?
And why was Islam not attacked before that?
Why didn't the church organize against Islam before that?
Was it because it needed a couple centuries of occupation of parts of Europe and constant conflict to get that hatred of Islam and Muslims?
Right?
So because we were organizing Europe for war against Byzantium and ostensibly, and realistically at that point, Islam, we needed all of our young men, capable young men and men oriented to war.
But you still needed to run the kingdoms and you still needed to run the empire and you still needed the empires and you still needed the managerial class.
But if your first, second, and third son are all going into the knighthood and all going away to war, you need capable managers.
Well, the Jews needed somewhere to live safely and securely without having to pay the jiza or whatever it is, the tax.
And we needed managers and they were capable managerial peoples.
But there was a quid pro quo.
Every once in a while, when shit goes wrong, we're going to blame you for it.
And you're going to give up a list of names and we're going to kill them.
And we're going to blame you for it.
Right.
Okay.
Called the whipping boy in our old, you know, our old English world, right?
So, for example, the Federal Reserve, which was created by houses like J.P. Morgan and Warburg and by the Praetorians.
By the Praetorians.
The fact that they were of Jewish heritage is kind of completely irrelevant.
They were the best managers, right?
What are we doing now?
Now we're replacing the Jews with Indians.
Why?
Because they're extraordinarily good British managers.
Oh, okay.
Okay.
Right?
Yeah.
So I was going to ask you, which Praetorians' names do we know?
But essentially, all the kind of the figures from history involved in finance, in commerce, in empire building, in the military, presumably.
These are all Praetorians.
Not necessarily all Praetorians, but because there's factions in all things, and these things by their nature are not necessarily malevolent or evil.
Some of these financial institutions, some of these organizations were set up to fight the Praetorians.
Unfortunately, we didn't realize, like I wrote about in the Eternal War, that once you create an edifice to fight something, if you don't jealously guard who gets on the inside at some point, the Resentfuls are going to run that.
The Praetorians are going to run it.
And now they're going to use it against you.
So, you know, finance itself is not an evil.
Banking itself is not an evil.
These are necessary things.
But, you know, and intelligence organizations and special operations, these things are necessary.
But if you don't realize resentfuls are constantly, forever and never relenting trying to take over these things to use them against you, ultimately you're going to wind up where even institutions that were created for the right reasons to do the right things are completely in your enemy's hands.
Praetorians Running It00:04:37
Yeah.
And then, of course, as you're saying, you're going to have others that were created specifically by your enemy to, you know, parasitically take, right?
Because what is the Praetorian system?
The old Roman Praetorian system is a slaver system.
It is based off of slavery.
Herbert Spencer.
What's that?
You and me and our listeners who aren't Praetorians were the slaves.
We're the slaves, right?
So Herbert Spencer, right?
Good Englishman.
Herbert Spencer wrote about this in the 1880s.
Man versus the state.
It's a series of four articles that he wrote for popular science, I think.
And one of those four pieces is called The Coming Slavery.
He wrote it in 1884.
It is a must-read for everybody because Herbert Spencer laid all of this out over a century ago.
Very clearly.
Is it in book form or do you have to read it on the internet?
I think you can get PDF.
I don't know if it's in book form.
Probably.
It's called Man versus the State.
It's the collection of the four or six essays.
I've heard of Herbert Spencer.
I know he was a good thing.
He's a brilliant man.
Brilliant.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Okay.
So as a believer.
Do you describe yourself as a pagan?
I'm Norse.
I'm Scandinavian on both sides of my family.
I mean, I'm English and I'm Scottish.
My mother's.
Yeah, but I don't know that I really have a god.
But the belief system, how I organize the world around me, I resonate more with Norse paganism.
Do you have a U, not a U-tree?
What was Yggdrasil?
Yggdrasil.
Yggddr Sil is the tree.
He wasn't just the one.
He was the tree.
No, it's the tree of the world.
Yggdrasil is the tree that binds all nine realms together.
I mean, do you think you're going to go to Valhalla after this?
Well, that's another.
Okay, so I don't know.
Maybe.
I might go to Freya's holes.
Well, I might go to Freya's holes.
So there's a thing that most people don't understand.
Freya picks from the Einharjar, the fallen.
Freya, the Valkyrie, pick half of the fallen for Freya before Odin's half is chosen.
I've written on this as well.
There's an article I've written.
What happens to that half?
We're the ones that Freya...
They go to Freya's holes.
They don't go to Valhalla.
Valhalla is Odin's hole.
They go to Freya's halls.
And they're there so that when Ragnarok comes, Odin's men fight Ragnarok to delay, to minimize the complete and absolute and total destruction.
And Freya's people fight, but Freya's people are the ones who rebuild on the other side and then continue the fight, you know, the lingering post-Ragnarok fight to make sure that life is restored.
Oh, so I think you'd probably rather be in Freya's hall than in.
Maybe.
I don't know.
I got hot red warrior blood, but I don't get to choose.
So I have to prepare myself for both, right?
Odin's men have to prepare themselves for battle, for outright no shit battle.
But if it so be that I'm chosen by Freya, I need to be capable across all seven elements of power, not just, you know, not just gun battles in all their many forms.
Yes, I have to say, I do envy you that, that you've got the skills.
And because all I'd be good for is cavalry at a push.
But really not.
I'm not a warrior.
The Lancers might have been fun.
I think one of the greatest temporary periods, by the way, because the Lancers didn't last very long because of gunpowder and all of that.
But what a marvelous, right?
Marvelous time to be alive, to have been a Lancer.
I think the Battle of Albuera, there was lots of Lancing.
I seem to remember that the British squares had to endure being have the French Lancers.
Ravaged.
Satan's CEOs00:04:45
Yeah.
i don't think that was fun um no the reason i was asking this was because obviously i've i have a very i suppose a bible centric christian centric view of and i see the world in terms of satanic Well, like the pyramid with Satan at the top, and he's got his various sort of CEOs working for him.
And Satan is the CEO, but he's got his various sort of junior managers, Klaus Schwab and Satan's the chairman, and then he's got a number of CEOs for the subsidiaries.
Satan's the chairman.
I don't know who the CEO is.
Is it the Grey Pope or the Black Pope?
There's many CEOs.
Right.
There's many CEOs for different entities and organizations and efforts.
I suppose the reason I was asking about the Jews is I sort of suspicious of any conspiracy theory which says it's the Jews, but I'm equally suspicious of any conspiracy theory which says it's not the Jews.
Insofar as clearly the people who've labeled themselves thus punch above their weight in terms of global evil influence.
It doesn't mean to say they all do.
Other than they've been the managerial class for a thousand years.
Of course, in managerial Praetorian systems, they're going to have a disproportionate amount of top leader, you know, management leadership.
But if we watch right now, I've written about this, I've spoken on this many times, we watch right now, they're being replaced by Indians.
Right.
All over the world, all over the former British Empire and elsewhere.
I must say, even though whenever I talk to you, I find there are points where I disagree wildly or mildly with what you're saying.
I do find your theory very interesting and coherent.
And also, it sort of gives me an element of hope.
Because if you're right, I mean, I love the idea that President Trump was in some way some kind of white hat and that we were going to get out of this mess.
I have problems with it.
For example, I have problems with the fact that his relationship with Jared Kushner and Chabad, I think these are deeply suspect things.
The whole Israel axis is doesn't smack of somebody who's here to save us.
Yeah, so give me one second.
Very complicated thing, but the enemy, the resentfuls, are always Trying to make sure they got one of their gatekeepers, you know, in and around you.
They're always trying to, even if they can't get a gatekeeper in or some of your security or both, then they try to get as many photos with you and get in as many different places with you over time to make it look like there's an stronger association than there really is, you know, guilt by association.
This is what Epstein did with Trump and others.
He would get into photos because they moved in a certain social class.
And inevitably, that's a very small group, by the way, globally.
And so, of course, they were going to run across each other at different events, etc.
It didn't mean at all that they have an association.
I've watched this since I was young.
My mother even told me about this, right?
Careful.
Don't, you know, careful with people.
Careful, you know, when you meet people, careful, you know, just people will try to make it look like they have a relationship with you when they don't.
Oh, okay.
Right.
So, and the other piece is sometimes you have to let some of these people close and listen because you need to hear what the hell they're doing, or you need to pick up intelligence and information from them that helps you make your assessments better.
But you keep them as arm's length as you can, right?
Unfortunately, we don't always get to move and operate just with the good guys.
And sometimes we're a bad guy too, but not necessarily because we're bad guys because I didn't know what the hell was going on.
Yeah.
And so I made some choices, you know, that were mistaken.
Right?
So with Kushner and them, if you look at his first administration, it's fundamentally different than the second, and you almost never hear those guys' names.
There's a whole different team here now.
Matrilineal Mysteries00:10:02
Yes.
Who was that terrible Secretary of State he appointed?
Rex.
Oh, I don't remember.
Tillerson or whatever.
Yeah, I think it's Tillison.
He was like thinking, what?
I mean, mind you, those were my normal days when I believed in the left and the right.
So it doesn't matter anymore.
Okay.
So going back to the beginning now, well, almost the beginning, we're skipping out the horses and courage bit.
You reckon that the Venezuela op is destroying the but Rothschilds, where are they on this?
They're so you know the John Wick movies, right?
Yeah.
The people who, yeah, well, but the people who sit at the high table don't own the high table.
The Rothschilds sit at the high table, but they don't own it.
They own quite a good chunk of it.
No, not of the table, of things in front of the table.
Right?
So the people who own the high table are above the high table.
And in Europe, and actually much of the world, it's women.
These are all matrilineal families.
And so like the House of Garcenda, the House of Eleanor, the House of Euphresni, there's others.
You go do a YouTube search for European matrilineal dynasties.
I recommend anybody.
There's three or four brilliant videos that have been done on it.
And it's all well documented out.
This is a new rabbit hole.
I did not know about.
Just tell me a bit more.
Matrilineal dynasties in Europe.
Yes.
And they still run by women?
They.
Yes.
And some of them go back 900 years unbroken, mother to daughter.
And these are baddie women.
Not necessarily all baddie women.
It's just women are locked in genetic warfare from the moment they're born to the moment they die.
And we're all caught up in female versus female genetic competition.
And because of the way, just statistics alone, the differences between male lifespans, male procreation versus female lifespans and female procreation, male lines tend to die out no more, you know, the longest lived lines that are legitimate, genetic, you know, there wasn't a secret adoption or there wasn't some, you know, some cookery or something else going on.
Male lines tend to rarely go more than five generations at their most extent, some seven to nine in these rare, weird cases, you know, like harems, right?
This is one of the things that the Ottomans did right.
They had harems.
Why?
That was actually to ensure that the Ottoman sultan, right, that the son that followed in, that there was a number of sons, that there would always be a son to follow after him, and that it was actually his son, right?
And not somebody else's.
So women, so the house of Garsenda is the oldest one.
If you go do the rabbit hole, that house is over 900 years old.
It might be older, but the earliest records go back 900 years.
Where is it based?
Originally out of France.
Right?
So one could marry into this family.
Well, see, this is the thing, right?
Daughters.
Daughters are the ones that marry into all the great houses across Europe, going back a thousand years.
They also also not just marry into royal and noble houses, they also marry into elite houses, non-noble and royal houses.
And so many of the top bankers, many of the top industrialists, many of the top folks also have, are married into these old royal noble houses through their wives or their mothers.
Right?
So, like, I'll give you an example.
So, the royal family of Russia, okay, going back to, I can't remember somewhere, 800s, 900s, maybe it's earlier than that, is a family called the Rurikid family.
They're actually Varangian guards out of Byzantium because the Slavic tribes couldn't mediate between themselves.
So they brought the Varangians in after their service in Byzantium and established this family as the Russian royal family to arbitrate between the Slavic tribes.
That family is called the Rurikid family.
It's still around today.
Right?
Where do they live?
They're all over the world.
Have you met any of them?
Yes, I know a couple of them.
The Romanovs are a branch of the Rurikid family.
And what are they like?
They're just another old, old family.
Right?
But through his mother, Donald Trump is a Rurikid.
Is he?
How do you spell Rurikid?
R-U-R-I-K-I-D.
What's that?
What?
I've never had that before.
Why is my computer listening to me?
And do you hear that?
Yes.
I did not ask for that.
Fuck off, computer.
Don't do that to me again.
How do I turn it off?
I have no idea.
It must have been triggered by a very important thing.
Right?
So the thing is that people need to realize that these old matrilineal houses are who owns the world.
And it passes down from mother to daughter.
Right.
And they find, you know, and upper class families still do this.
And upper middle class families still do this.
And they select, they go find men that are the right match for their daughters to manage to be the father, to sire the children, you know, to protect in the broader spectrum fight, etc.
Right.
That is really interesting.
And have you met any of the what was the previous one you mentioned?
Not the Rural Kid, but the other one, the Garcenda Euphresni.
I've met several of them.
And some of these houses, of course, you know, have crossing branching lines through daughters who married into other families, etc.
Yeah.
Right.
But like the English royal family, you know, the British royal family, the English royal family, is the descendant of three of these houses.
Okay.
Direct descendants.
These girls?
What's that?
Are they good-looking?
Not always.
See, people really need to look at history.
A lot of times, a lot of nobles, noble men, or elite men, or men that were great soldiers and great leaders, like Lord Marshall, Lord Pembroke, right?
First Lord Pembroke, Lord Marshall, William Marshall, right?
Yeah, William Marshall, yeah.
The greatest knight.
He was married to one of these daughters.
That's what made him wealthy.
That's what made him Lord Pembroke.
Eleanor of Aquitaine, Her Majesty Eleanor Aquitaine, found a wife for him.
Right.
So, well, this, of course, gels with my mother's of darkness theory, that it's evil women who run the world, really.
Well, okay, so that's absolutely the case, right?
What's happening right now is we have nothing but unhealthy matriarchy in control.
And if we are going to do anything to restore and survive, we need to restore, recognize, remember and recognize matriarchal power as the ultimate power.
And we need to seek out and restore healthy matriarchy at every level.
Because, you know, and I came upon all of this probably 30 years ago when I was reading about the witch burnings in the 1516, 1700, you know, into the 1700s when it was finally stopped and the Inquisition, right, in all of its various forms, right?
And somebody had written a book or a paper, I can't remember, it was a long time ago, right?
That articulated that the witch burning was actually unhealthy women, you know, unhealthy power women for generations, for a couple of centuries, killing any healthy, whole, brilliant, vivacious woman who was coming up in the society and the population.
And that what it was doing was it was eradicating a certain healthy, balanced genetics in women.
You are a fund of wild new conspiracy.
There is.
Well, I read this sometime, and then I see it, right?
And then in the movie, in the TV series Vikings, in the last season, Bjaron Ironsides has two wives, his last two wives.
One is Grunhild, and I can't remember the other one's name.
Grunhild was a strong, powerful shield maiden woman, loved him dearly.
When Bjern was killed, she actually swam out in the fjord and drowned herself.
She couldn't live in a world without him.
Well, then, who inherited the kingdom?
The crazy witch, the crazy, beautiful witch that was the second wife.
And they do a great job, sotto voce, right?
You know, t'taliano, right?
Subtly, little voice, of expressing how crazy women rose to power in Europe and how we are now, even today, led by crazy, insane women.
Crypto's Long Tail00:06:01
Okay.
Are you recommending that series, the Viking?
I am.
Like too many things, it peters off at the end, right?
But, you know, for those who, these are our people, right?
If you have Norman blood in you at all, I mean, I know you're a Dellingpole, you're old Saxon family, right?
But if you've got Norman...
Well, it is.
I hope so.
Yeah.
If you've got Norman ancestry at all, I would highly recommend it.
Okay.
So there were so many competing Viking series.
This one is called Vikings.
Yeah, so there's two shows, Viking-related.
They're only ones I watch.
The original Viking series, and the other one is Last Kingdom, which is about the Percy family.
Yeah, I love it.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It really went to shit in the last series.
That's what always happens, doesn't it?
Yeah.
It was good at the beginning, but it was.
Yeah.
Before we go, I've loved talking to you as always.
It's really interesting.
And you've actually reminded me, I must read some of your books because they sound really interesting.
Have you got views on what's happening in gold and silver right now?
Yes.
So give me one second.
Down underneath, going all the way back to the 1600s, this illicit British banking financial system, which is what the Praetorian system is, is all still priced in silver.
The old contracts, excuse me, the rollover carryover contracts are all still £4 sterling.
And so if you're going to finally break that system, you have to break the you have to free pricing mechanisms so that the right, you know, the actual legitimate price for gold and silver can be attained.
And why you do that?
Well, because those prices are going to rise substantively, properly, when you have proper pricing mechanisms where they're not controlling the pricing through the LBMA and all kinds of complicated ways.
So when you allow for actual healthy price discovery, those prices are going to go up.
And then what happens?
It breaks all of this banking financial system because they still have to deliver, when they burn through all the other derivatives and the unearned liquidity of the Euro dollar system, then they get down to hard assets and the ultimate final hard asset is the delivery of silver.
And that's how you break the, that's the final breaking of that system.
Did you see this coming?
Yes.
So did you position yourself accordingly?
No.
No.
I communicate with others.
And, you know, Tom Luongo talks this way better than I do or ever could.
But yes, of course, I saw it coming because I know the British system, it's still based on silver, right?
Yes, Soros, et al., but the Praetorians broke the pound sterling, but that was just making the pound a fiat currency.
The sterling part's still there.
Right?
So Soros is a Praetorian.
Yeah, well, he's management for the Praetorians.
He's not a Praetorian Praetorian, but he's management.
In a way, what you call the Praetorians, what other people call the black nobility, aren't they?
That's what some people are saying.
And I think that's probably closest, right?
But in reality, what it is, is it's these gene pools.
It's these matrilineal gene pools that have this unreal, disproportionate power and influence because they're the daughter, you know, the wife of that man is the daughter of that family.
Or his mother is the daughter of that family.
Okay.
Yes.
So just to go back to the point about gold and silver, so the separation of sort of paper silver from physical silver.
Yeah.
I mean, I've been hearing about this for some time.
And also, I've heard it predicted in the past that when the two diverge, it's going to be an extraordinary effect on the value of physical.
But won't the Praetorians find a way of undermining this?
Well, they are, and that's what they're trying to do with all this move to crypto and CBDC, etc.
What they're trying to do is convince us that base metals don't really have necessary value and that the real value is in electricity conversion.
Yeah.
Right?
It's the alchemist dream, man.
It's this total, it's magic.
It's just word magic, right?
If they can get you to believe that like Bitcoin.
Like a Dogecoin.
Or a Dogecoin.
It's like convincing me that using computers to burn electricities, to process ones and zeros is anything real whatsoever is like the most ludicrous, right?
It's like, to me, to your faith, right?
Which again, I went to the private schools and did all the things for a decade and a half.
Well, not quite, for about a decade.
To me, it is the same thing as what is the greatest thing.
What is the greatest trick the devil ever pulled?
Crypto.
Well, now the modern one, yes, yes.
Well played.
Well played.
No, to convince you that he didn't exist.
Right.
Right?
Well, in this case, it's to convince you that crypto is real.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Right?
I'll give you a prime example of how unreal it is.
Warren Buffett doesn't hold a single bit of crypto.
Crypto's Long War00:05:07
Although, to be fair, he doesn't need to.
For some of us, some of us, crypto has been quite a good, as long as we can get out at the right time.
Crypto has quite a bit of time.
As long as you don't think it's real and you know when the bubble's going to go and you get out of it and convert it to something that's real.
Yeah, yeah.
See, that's what they do.
See, this is what the devil does, right?
The devil lets you succeed for a while with the artificial thing.
He allows people who would never build wealth or fame or anything in any other way run with that for a while.
And then he brings the hammer down and wipes everybody out.
He's so bad, the devil.
He really is.
Well, as always, I've really enjoyed our chat.
So tell me.
Oh, sorry.
We haven't done Greenland.
Tell me about how Greenland fits into this.
If Europe is going to go to war with the United States through Canada, it needs Greenland as a staging area back and forth for logistics.
So it's going to be war between you and us.
That's what's been set up.
That's what they're trying.
They'll unleash cartel wars and conflict and civil war here in the United States, and then they'll arm and supply the civil war here in the U.S. through Canada using Canada's natural resources, which would be sent back over to Europe to be processed, turned into weapons, etc., and then shipped back over to Canada to be filtered down into the U.S. in support of the civil war here.
It's also why we're doing the land bridge between Canada, between Alaska and Russia, because it'll be Russia and China that back and support the English-American loyalist.
That's what's being set up.
Because America is the prize.
America is going to be fighting against Europe.
We'll be in a civil war.
We'll be in a civil war fostered by Europe and the United Kingdom, you know, the Pretorians.
And then that civil war has to get logistically supported.
We're not going to be able to logistically support it internally for very long because we'll be in a civil war.
And so external powers will have to logistically support both sides.
And initially, there won't be two sides.
It'll be factions, regional.
In the American Civil War, that's yet to be shaping up.
But really, right now, it's blue states versus red states.
And then that won't quite work.
And, you know, so it's urban versus rural.
So what we have to look at, and it's not exactly one for one, but what we have to look at is the Spanish Civil War.
It's the closest to what's already being set up here.
It's already set up.
It's all ready to go.
The Spanish Civil War.
The Spanish Civil War 1936 to 1939.
What you have to look at is the 10 years leading up to it as well.
Okay.
There's a thing that I should have asked you about before stopping the podcast.
So, okay.
So, right.
While the civil war is going on in America, are there going to be more civil wars over here, where I am?
I don't know.
So that we don't get, you know, if I say the year 1848, you know, that references the year of revolutions.
Horrible revolutions and things.
Yeah, right.
Which virtually all of them failed, by the way.
People really take a look.
Give me a second.
Such that there isn't another 1848 in Europe, they'll put every bit of energy and effort.
They were trying to do this all against Russia, but that's failed.
So now they'll try and unlock it, unleash this here in the United States, in North America, such that we're the big battlefield for the next 10 years, eight to 10, 7 to 10 years.
And they'll flood, man.
Europe will re-industrialize and reset its economic and financial base through arming the rebels here in the United States.
And that's how they shunt off and rebuild the middle class in Europe and do all the things they need to do to reset and restructure themselves.
They were hoping to do this against Russia, but that's proven to be, you know, not possible.
Is Russia controlled by the Pretorians as well?
No, Russia got rid of the Pretorians.
That's why they're trying to retake Russia with everything that they have.
Same with China.
China's finishing breaking free of the Pretorians now.
My goodness.
I wonder.
We're just beginning in the United States, right?
So, you know, yeah.
Well, can I say for what it's worth that I'm sorry if I bear any personal responsibility for this civil war that we're, I don't think I do though, really.
I don't think it's really my fault, even though I mean.
Block Negative Engagement00:05:35
No, I will say a little thing that I've said publicly.
And you might enjoy this Our English Civilization, one of the books I read, wrote, right?
Those aisles over there where our people come from.
And don't think that we've forgotten that.
And don't think that when this all kicks off and we go to blood, if we're forced to it, I don't want to.
Nobody wants to, but we're all prepared for it.
You know, everybody I know is prepared for it and has been for a decade or more.
But don't think for a moment we're not going to come home and free our own homelands as well.
If we're forced to the utmost to be Englishmen, we're going to be Englishmen.
Okay.
Just can you put in a good word for me before you come over?
Absolutely.
Well, you just did for yourself.
Yeah.
You're an old fan, but you're an old English family.
You're an old English Saxon family.
I'd hope so.
I'm worried about looking too deeply into my heritage in case I discover that I'm very ordinary.
You're Jamaican.
Yeah, I'm Jamaican.
Yummy.
So it's been great talking to you.
Tell us where we can find you, where we can read your staff, where we can, etc.
Yeah, so articles on emberlingame.substack.com on EM Berlin Game on Twitter.
Please do know that I do have a nip of the nectar of the gods every once in a while and might say some borderline inappropriate things on X in addition to the articles and things.
And then the books are on Amazon.
You can just look for my name.
Or if you want signed copies, you can go to emberling.com.
That's great.
And everyone, if you've enjoyed this, please continue to like and subscribe.
And ideally become a paid subscriber.
I mean, Substack has been really seriously slashing away at my paid subscriber base because of all their adjustments there.
It's a honey trap.
It's dangerous.
I think I've lost about 10, 15% of my paid subscribers.
No reason.
Are you, terribly sorry, James, but are you, one of the things I noticed on Substack is there's people who intentionally come in and attack your work in the comments, and And so I was what I started to do is I just started blocking them, blocking them and removing their content.
And that changed the engagement with my content and the algorithm substantively.
So I have to actively go in and pair people away.
Same on X.
I think I might do, certainly, my policy as much as possible, although it requires a certain self-restraint, has been to not engage with obvious don't engage.
Yeah, you don't engage.
But here's the problem.
Here's the problem.
The way in which the algorithms, and this is what I did my doctoral studies in, by the way, right?
Sentiment analysis, et cetera, data brokerage.
The way in which the algorithms work is they do want engagement in dialogue, but they don't want just yelling, screaming, etc.
So what happens is that there are bots and then there are actual paid agitators and people who come in and just make negative comments.
You have nothing to do or intentionally malign your content.
Well, what happens then is the AIs, you know, the LLMs that are reading and assessing, they see a piece of work and then they see some supports and then they see this negative counter interpretation, etc.
And then they downplay that content.
So you have to just block the, you know, don't engage with, don't, you know, back and forth unless you think there's something redeemable there.
But just block them and make sure that you delete whatever their comment was.
Then what that does is it removes this negative, adverse interpretation of your content, which then opens it up to the, you know, to the algorithms more.
Oh, interesting.
Okay.
Thank you for that tip.
I still don't trust Substack.
But anyway, if you want to support me, go old school.
You can go support me on Patreon if you want.
Or buy me coffee or support my sponsors or all those things.
Send you a horse.
Yeah, send me a horse.
Obviously, send me a horse with some grooms to look after it because I don't think I'm going to go.
And also, yeah, go to my website, jamestaningpole.co.uk, I think it is, or.com, one or the other.
And it's got, yeah, you can find ways of supporting me there.
Yeah.
Do the right thing.
Thank you.
Do it, folks.
Do it, folks.
Don't make me send some guys with guns in your house and bale clubs.
That's a new way of doing it.
Yeah.
If you don't give me some money, my boys, my boy EM is going to come around to your plan.
