Time Text
Welcome to the Halloween edition of Bright Town Broadcast News.
Mike Adams here joining you on October 31st, 2023.
Thank you for joining me.
Halloween, of course, is the holiday recognized in the United States where people look like they're dying and they walk around like zombies.
In other words...
Every day in America.
Yeah, it's pretty much every day is Halloween day if you take a good hard look at people.
I'm kidding.
All right.
We've got some really major news that as of the moment I'm recording this, no one else has put the pieces of this puzzle together.
Let me give it to you in summary format, and then we'll go into the details.
We've got a lot to cover today.
And in fact, my whole original plan of what this was going to be has been smashed to bits by the following news.
So it came out today, a leaked document that's been verified from the Israeli Ministry of Intelligence, came out and said that there has been a plan in place of a forced displacement of all Gaza civilians came out and said that there has been a plan in place of a forced displacement of all Gaza civilians to push them to Egypt so that Israel could basically
Now, those of you who have been monitoring some of the history or learning about the history of Israel, you will notice that ever since 1948, Israel gets into wars with Palestinians and then always ends up taking more land, starting with the Nakba in 1948, Israel gets into wars with Palestinians and then always ends up taking more Well, three-quarters of a million Palestinians were displaced at that time.
And I don't know how many were murdered at that time.
But, you know, you go through all the wars, the Six-Day War and on and on, all the different conflicts, and Israel just keeps taking more and more and more and more land.
so-called Palestine keeps getting smaller and smaller and smaller.
Well, this idea of standing down on October 7th and allowing Hamas to carry out these terrorist attacks against Israeli civilians was designed, we now know, and I've been reporting this, it was designed.
To get the Israeli people and the American people to emotionally support the extermination of Gaza and the complete displacement of the 2.3 million Palestinians who live there.
So that, again, so that Israel could just steal the land and make it greater Israel.
That plan has come out.
That's big news all by itself, but that's not even the biggest news.
Or the whole picture.
The bigger story is that as of right now, Netanyahu's plan has been thwarted because he can't do it without the support of the United States.
And so this is actually, this is the biggest news in the world right now.
That Israel's plan to completely exterminate the Palestinians, to wipe them away, and to seize Gaza for greater Israel, that plan has failed.
And it failed even before the main ground assault got underway.
And this means that Netanyahu is finished.
This means that we are now at the beginning stages of what's going to become an internal Israeli revolution of sorts against Netanyahu.
Who represents what is considered to be the far-right version of the Israeli government.
There's going to be an internal revolt in Israel because of, well, the failures of the IDF on October 7th.
But it's going to come out probably that Netanyahu, you know, ordered the stand down.
It was all allowed.
But even if that doesn't come out, the failures of Netanyahu to manage the situation and The destruction of Israel's reputation on the world stage because Israel refused to negotiate.
Israel refused to recognize a ceasefire.
Israel refused to allow humanitarian aid into the civilians and Israel's military bombed hospitals.
They bombed a Turkish hospital in just the last day.
They bombed a Greek hospital.
They bombed, you know, places of worship, mosques, clinics, water treatment facilities, and residential buildings.
The reputation of Israel, as Scott Ritter explained yesterday, has been demolished worldwide, even in the eyes of people like myself, who previous to this had nothing whatsoever against Israel.
I was a fan of Israel.
I mean, some of my friends are Israelis, like the people I trained with in Krav Maga, for example.
But what I've learned since October 7th, watching Israel's actions and its lack of integrity, and its just relentless killing of civilians and women and children and cancer patients getting bombed in the hospital, it has altered my view of Israel forever.
It's going to take a long time for Israel to regain its reputation.
And what's happening is that the internal people in Israel are now seeing Netanyahu not as the savior of Israel, not as the man who will follow biblical scripture and deliver Israel to victory, but rather Netanyahu is increasingly not as the man who will follow biblical scripture and deliver Israel to victory, but rather Netanyahu is increasingly seen
The man that has destroyed Israel's reputation in the eyes of the Western world, from which Israel receives billions of dollars in funding and of course, military support and so on.
And this reputation damage that has been done to Israel by Netanyahu, this will begin to trickle through The electorate in America, as the voters start to pressure their members of Congress, stop funding Israel, right?
You're going to hear that more and more and more.
And you're going to see more calls by American voters on the left and the right.
Denouncing any candidates that support additional military funding for Israel, given that Israel is using those military funds to carry out what is clearly genocide against the Palestinian people.
And now it's all been confirmed in Israel's own documents.
This was an ethnic cleansing operation.
Their own Ministry of Defense says so.
Or Ministry of Intelligence, excuse me, says so.
Now I put out a statement on this.
That, of course, earned me a little bit of criticism, but also a lot of people leaped to my defense on this, and I'll paraphrase it here.
It's very simple.
Because of what Israel is doing with U.S. weapons, the way Israel is using those weapons is clearly in violation of international law, of humanitarian law.
Because those weapons are being used to target innocent civilians who are themselves not combatants.
And you can't use the human shield's excuse to tell me that it's okay to just bomb civilians.
I'm sorry, that's not okay.
You can't say, oh, we had to get those tunnels, and so too bad there was a hospital built on top of the tunnels.
I guess we had to bomb the whole hospital.
No, that doesn't fly.
But that's Israel's excuse right now.
It just doesn't fly.
So I am saying publicly right now, I will not support a presidential candidate in the U.S., Who supports continued funding of weapons or military support for Israel.
I cannot and will not support such a candidate.
And I say that because I cannot in good conscience support a candidate that would use my tax dollars, which are considerable.
I do send some pretty painful checks to the IRS. But if they're going to use that to build bombs, to fund bombs that will be dropped on women and children in violation of international human rights law, I cannot in good conscience support that candidate, no matter what party they are in, no matter what their name.
And based on what I've seen so far, that means I can't support Trump.
Because I'm a principled person.
And I draw the line at this, you know, I'm sorry, ethnic cleansing is not okay with me.
Bombing women and children, not okay with me.
And I have not heard Trump say a word against this genocide that is taking place, that Israel is carrying out.
And if I'm thinking about this, you can rest assured, there are many other people who, even those who lean conservative, like I tend to do, Who are thinking exactly the same thing.
Now we know that almost everybody on the left is opposed to Israel's continued bombing of Gaza.
We've seen the student protests, for example.
And young people tend to lean left.
And leftists tend to be anti-war.
At least classically, that's what they used to be.
And what we're seeing now on the left, by the way, is that A lot of the voting age youth in America will no longer support Joe Biden because Biden is pro-war.
And then at the same time, we're seeing among principled people like myself, And frankly, many of us in this space of alternative media, we are saying for humanitarian reasons, we cannot support candidates that promote more weapons for Israel because we know the big picture.
This is all about profits for the military-industrial complex.
That's what this is.
And by the way, Trump oversaw Operation Warp Speed.
Which involved, of course, mass bioweapons administration to the American people and the military, including the people of Israel.
With their military also being injected, by the way.
And so Operation Warp Speed is something that Trump has never backed down from.
He still claims that he should be given credit for saving America with mass injections of bioweapons.
And until now, that had been the only sticking point I had with Trump.
But now, I've got another one.
And that's his just mindless support for funding Israel and funding genocide against other living human beings who are the Palestinian children and women and innocent civilians there who are not Hamas, who had nothing to do with Hamas attacks, and who should not be just indiscriminately bombed.
That is a war crime by definition.
And if Trump supports Israel in this action, then Trump supports war crimes.
It's an inescapable conclusion.
I don't say that gleefully.
I say it because it is the truth.
And unless he changes his position on that, I cannot support him.
I cannot support anyone who supports ethnic cleansing of any race.
White, black, brown, Indian, Pakistani, Jew, or Palestinian, Arab, Islam.
I cannot support genocide against any human being.
No group, no tribe.
My principles are pro-human all the way.
I mean, I don't sit here and say, oh, I'm on team humanity, I'm pro-humanity, and then one day, you're not going to hear me say, well, except for those brown people over there that live on the coast of the Mediterranean Sea, except those people.
No.
I'm pro-human for all humans, whatever their nationality, whatever their religion.
They're all children of God.
So here's a tweet from President Biden.
And here it is, quote, I also spoke with President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi to share my appreciation for Egypt, facilitating the delivery of humanitarian assistance to Gaza.
We reaffirmed our commitment to work together and discuss the importance of protecting civilian lives, respect for international humanitarian law, and ensuring that Palestinians in Gaza are not displaced to Egypt or any other nation.
Wow.
Wow.
And I can tell you, I can assure you that this tweet on the official POTUS Twitter account, or X, this is the result of a civil war inside the Democrat Party.
This is absolutely the result.
Of the pro-Palestinian leftists overriding the State Department genocidal lunatics who are Jake Sullivan and Victoria Nuland and Anthony Blinken, that crew, who are some of the worst treasonous criminals, in my opinion, that we've seen in this country since, you know, George Bush and that whole crew.
It was a Donald Rumsfeld, right?
So...
This is a civil war inside the Democrat Party.
And it seems that the pro-Palestine wing of the Democrat Party just won out.
And that is a very significant wing.
We have seen staffers resigning from the Biden administration over what's happened with Israel.
They are resigning.
I forgot the guy's name, who had worked for 20 years.
With the federal government, he resigned because morally he could not continue to be part of this genocide being carried out against Palestine.
And I can tell you that this civil war has been fomenting, it has been festering, and it exploded inside the Biden administration.
And part of what I think drove this decision...
Which is, let's face it, this is a slap in the face in Netanyahu.
This is going to destroy Netanyahu, actually.
But part of this is because the Biden controllers, who no doubt consist of Barack Obama and a few others, they came to realize that the Democrat Party cannot win elections in 2024 if they anger all the left-wing voters By supporting Israel's obvious genocide against Palestinian civilians.
This became a political issue inside the Biden regime.
A political issue.
And that assessment I believe is correct.
They would lose a significant portion of the Democrat Party who would be seeking to support some other candidate other than Biden in the same way that many of us in the more conservative-leaning camps are going to be looking for a candidate other than Trump because Trump is Israel first.
Trump apparently is going to just stand by and do everything that Israel wants.
And that's not okay, because candidates and presidents of America are supposed to represent America.
And the Speaker of the House is supposed to put America first, not Israel first.
And so that brings up the question of RFK Jr.
What will RFK Jr.
choose to do?
I am learning that he is very likely very close to making a public statement on this issue.
And I can only imagine that this is tearing him apart.
I can only imagine.
Because, let's face it, RFK Jr.
is a real person with a real heart.
He represents classical liberalism, the classical Democrat Party, the humanitarian side, the anti-war side.
But there's no question that That some of the wealthy donors to his candidacy and also to Children's Health Defense are, in fact, Jewish Americans.
There's a lot of money that supports RFK Jr.
that comes from Jewish people.
And yet, and yet, RFK Jr., in his heart, I can assure you he does not support killing of any innocent people, whether they're Palestinian or otherwise.
Because, again, he's a humanitarian.
He's spent his life, or much of his life, fighting for children, for example.
Like, fighting for children to not have to live in toxic, poisonous environments inundated with mercury and lead and other toxic heavy metals and so on.
I mean, children's health defense is all focused on that.
So, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., if he makes a statement saying...
Hey, we need to cease fire.
Well, right now, anybody who calls for peace is labeled an anti-Semite.
He might anger the Jewish donors.
But if he makes a statement that says, we support Israel, well, that means he can't, his humanitarian credentials fall apart, because that means he supports the endless genocidal bombing of Palestinian residential buildings and hospitals.
So, he's in a bind.
He's in a real bind.
I don't know what he's going to do.
Of course, I know what I would do because I've already done it.
I've already come out and spoken out against ethnic cleansing, against violence, against the genocide.
Enough is enough.
Stop it.
Cease fire.
We need diplomacy.
That's it.
And for calling for peace, of course, I will be labeled an anti-Semite, which, of course, you get that label now today just by disagreeing with anything that any Israeli says anywhere.
If an Israeli says 2 plus 2 is 5 and you say, no, it's 4, you're anti-Semite.
You disagree with an Israeli.
And that's how insane it is.
They just play the anti-Semite card on everything.
And I just don't buy into that.
I'm going to say the truth as it is.
No matter what your race, no matter what your religion, no matter what country you're from, I don't care.
I'm going to say the truth as it is, and I'm based on humanitarian principles that are universal.
I don't make exceptions for certain races.
I don't think one race is any better than another race, and I certainly don't think that one race is chosen by God to eliminate all the other races in the Middle East.
I absolutely do not believe that.
That's hogwash.
So I might end up in a situation where I don't have anybody to support for president, and if that's the case, so be it.
But I'm waiting to see what RFK Jr.
has to say about this.
Oh, and in the meantime, I am interviewing Dr.
Shiva on this topic, so that should be very animated, I would think, because Dr.
Shiva also does not censor himself.
He says it like he sees it, and he leaves no doubt of his perspectives in any such conversations.
Now, we're going to get into the leaked Ministry of Intelligence plan here in a little more detail.
There's specific phases of how the Palestinians were planned to be exterminated out of Gaza.
Very specific plans.
But real quick, something else that's relevant.
The new GOP Speaker of the House, Mike Johnson, he was on with Sean Hannity.
And he said that we might need U.S. troops on the ground in Israel.
Whoa.
Yeah, he says, we can't allow Putin to prevail in Ukraine.
U.S. boots on the ground may be required to stand with Israel.
And he says that Russia, China, and Iran are the new axis of evil.
Well, I think he's got his history all wrong there, by the way.
Because in World War II, the axis of evil, that was a label applied to the group that was carrying out the Holocaust, which was the mass slaughter of people based on their ethnicity.
That was the Third Reich.
Who's doing that today?
Hmm.
I wonder.
Who's carrying out ethnic cleansing of an entire group of people based on simply the way they were born?
Mm-hmm.
Yeah.
But the fact that the GOP Speaker of the House is, of course, doubling down on his sworn loyalty to Israel, not America.
By the way, not America.
This is shocking to many American youth who are now freaking out and realizing that there's probably going to be a military draft in the United States.
A military draft!
And so a lot of youth across America are searching online, like, will I be drafted?
What's going to happen?
Yeah, that's what's going to be required to, quote, stand with Israel.
Is to throw young American soldiers or recruits, I don't know if you could call them soldiers, snowflakes with uniforms, I don't know, throw them into the meat grinder.
To quote, stand with Israel.
I think what Mike Johnson means is that the U.S. soldiers are going to die with Israel, not stand with Israel, they're going to die with Israel.
Because that's what this is going to be.
Because Turkey is about to wage war against Israel.
Turkey can have over a million soldiers there.
And they're not snowflakes, by the way.
Turkish soldiers are pretty serious dudes.
They're not all transgendered up.
This is not the LGBT Rainbow Brigade.
You know, this is actual soldiers.
Same thing with Syria.
Same thing with Iran.
Same thing with Russia.
So I don't know how many soldiers House Speaker Mike Johnson thinks that he's going to find across America who you can round up in a draft and slap a uniform on them and throw a rifle into their hands and just like drop them into...
Hell, in Gaza, you think they're going to survive?
I don't know what he's thinking.
But I can assure you that America's youth today, they are not qualified to be soldiers, by and large.
There are exceptions, granted.
There are exceptions to this.
You know, homeschooled kids, kids raised on ranches and farms and rural settings and maybe some young athletes and so on.
But by and large, America's youth today, it's the snowflake brigade.
It's the complacency.
It's apathy.
It's, you know, hyper-privileged.
And I just can't even tell you what it's going to be like.
You throw...
You know, these video game console trained American youth up against actual veteran Taliban fighters, man.
There's no competition.
There's no competition.
I mean, it's...
You can't even call most of these youth soldiers, you know?
I hear people say, well, America's military has much better equipment.
Oh, you mean all the equipment that we left behind in Afghanistan?
Afghanistan?
When the entire U.S. military turned around, ran away like cowards, running away from goat herders with AK-47s.
All that equipment that is now in the hands of the Taliban or ISIS or other groups, you mean all that equipment?
The night vision goggles, the hummers, the mortars, the aircraft, you know, the command vehicles, all that equipment, yeah.
Guess what?
They have that equipment now.
Billions of dollars worth of equipment that the U.S. left behind.
So no, your equipment actually doesn't matter.
Equipment cannot compensate for a lack of just being a man.
It really is that simple.
Because you can still be a coward in a $10 million tank who's crapping your own pants, afraid to know what to do.
Well, there can be an actual man of a soldier who It's the man, not the machine.
It's the man that matters.
And America is, by and large, not producing men, is it?
Producing a lot of transgenders on women's sports teams.
If we wanted to have all of our men go beat Turkish women at wrestling and cycling and swimming, we could absolutely kick their butts.
We could beat Iranian women.
We could beat Syrian women in the boxing ring as long as we get to have biological men.
That's where America absolutely excels.
Gold medals all the way.
We are the best at transgender domination of biological women.
Unfortunately for America, that's not what happens on the battlefield.
The other side has real men, not women.
And those men are shooting back at you.
And they're not wearing high heels and push-up bras and they didn't have gender mutilation surgery and chemical castrations.
They're actual men and they are trained to kill you and they're very effective at it.
So, good luck with the draft.
And by the way, I don't think Israel is ready for this fight either.
I think the IDF suffers from most of the same problems I just mentioned in characterizing America's youth.
I think these 300,000 reservists, you can't call them 300,000 soldiers or fighters.
They have 300,000 bodies in the IDF. They've got IDF uniforms.
There might be 30,000 soldiers in that group.
Maybe 10% are soldiers.
90% snowflakes.
And I think they know that.
And I think that the older Israeli IDF actual soldiers, they know that too.
They look at their own young reservists and they're thinking, pathetic.
These people can't fight.
They're going to turn and run.
They can't hold their ground.
They have no idea what they're doing.
Half of them can't cycle a bolt on an AR-15.
They don't have the forearm strength.
I mean, they don't have the fortitude.
They don't have the determination, never lived a hard day in their lives.
Everything's been so easy for them.
Soldiers are not made from easy upbringing.
Soldiers are crafted out of hard living, by the way.
Just as a personal note, that's one reason why, even in my mid-50s here, I still chop firewood.
I still clean out the chicken coop.
I still carry bags of grain.
I still lift animals.
I was grinding the hooves of my goat again the other night.
I do this physical labor precisely because I never want to get soft.
I never want to get lazy.
I never want to get to a point where I can't pick up a rifle.
I'm happy to tell you that thanks to a set of kettlebells, I think I'll be able to pick up a rifle for as long as I'm alive.
By the way, I'm going to be featuring an interview with Andy Sheckman here today, the financial analyst, expert on, well, the BRICS de-dollarization trend.
He's the CEO of Miles Franklin that handles gold and silver, precious metals.
I interviewed him last week and have not yet run that interview on this podcast, so that's what we're going to run today.
Very hard-hitting.
So you want to stay tuned for that.
Let's get into, in the meantime, the leaked document from the Israeli Ministry of Intelligence that reportedly was leaked on October 13th.
And I'm reading from a combination of various tweets that are describing this.
The document suggests forced displacement of Gaza civilians to Egypt...
Would quote, yield positive and long-term strategic results for Israel.
The document envisions a three-stage process, which includes the establishment of tent cities in Sinai, that's the Sinai Peninsula in Egypt, and the opening of a humanitarian corridor, and they call it a humanitarian corridor, but actually it's just a way to push all the Palestinians out, followed by the construction of cities in northern Sinai, Where the Palestinians would live and from which there would be no return to Gaza.
So this is a...
I mean...
This is basically just taking all the Palestinians out of Gaza.
I mean, killing thousands of them, obviously.
And pushing the survivors into Egypt.
Just forcing them into the Sinai Peninsula in Egypt and saying, here, you can have this land.
We're taking Gaza.
And then bulldozing Gaza...
And stealing it and saying, it's Israel now.
That's what this is.
That's what the whole stand down on October 7th was all about in order to allow this to take place.
So let's get into the phases.
In the first phase, as this document says, the population in Gaza must be forced to move to southern Gaza while Israeli airstrikes focus on targets in northern Gaza.
So step one, bomb the north, push everybody south.
That stage has been underway, right, for a couple of weeks.
In the second phase, the Israeli army's ground entry into Gaza will begin, which will lead to the occupation of the entire strip from north to south and the cleansing of the underground bunkers from Hamas fighters.
So this phase has already begun also.
The Israeli military has moved into northern Gaza.
They've got tanks and bulldozers there.
They've moved a couple kilometers into northern Gaza, and they're working towards the occupation of the entire strip.
And they're also starting to, quote, cleanse the underground bunkers.
I mean, yeah, for once, they're using the right term, cleansing, because it is an ethnic cleansing.
It's not just cleansing the underground bunkers.
They're cleansing all the Palestinian people out of there.
And then it continues.
At the same time that the Gaza Strip is occupied, the citizens of Gaza will move to Egyptian territory and will be prevented from returning permanently.
So this is Israel's plan.
To steal their land, push them out, make sure they can never come back.
That's actually named in the document.
And then it goes on.
Check this out.
The deportation of the population from Gaza must be presented as a necessary humanitarian measure in order to receive international support.
This is all contrived.
Such a deportation could be justified if it will lead to fewer casualties among the civilian population compared to the expected number of casualties if they remain.
In other words, Israel's continued bombing of Gaza is designed to get the international community to support the evacuation of Palestinians out of Gaza to push them into Sinai, Egypt, so that they can never come back, so that Israel can steal their land and claim it's greater Israel.
I mean, this is all admitted now.
All admitted.
The document also states that the U.S. should be leveraged to pressure Egypt to take in the residents of Gaza and to encourage other European countries, in particular Greece, Spain, and Canada, to help take in and settle the refugees who will be evacuated from Gaza.
In other words, Israel is saying that, yeah, we're going to slaughter these Palestinians, the ones that survived.
We're going to push them on Europe and America and Egypt.
Here, you take them.
Your problem now.
We just wanted to steal Gaza.
It's greater Israel now.
That's what this is.
And October 7th was allowed to happen in order to push this plan, which is a land theft plan.
And I've got a video here for you shortly of Netanyahu admitting all this in his own words on camera.
It's really quite incredible.
And what's bombshell here today is that the Biden administration is now saying they are opposed to this plan.
That's a shocker to Netanyahu, no doubt.
Now there's a website called thecradle.co.
That currently has the best analysis of this.
Their headline is called leaked Israeli plan to ethnically cleanse Gaza.
The plan advocates the forced transfer of the population of the Gaza Strip to Sinai permanently and calls for the international community to be leveraged to assist the move.
I mean, this is some real nefarious plotting on the part of Israel, isn't it?
Incredible.
Israel Culture magazine Mekovit published on October 28th a leaked document issued by Israel's Ministry of Intelligence recommending the occupation of Gaza and the total transfer of its 2.3 million inhabitants to Egypt's Sinai Peninsula.
That's what I just covered with you there.
The document recommends that Israel evacuate the Gazan population to Sinai during the war, establish tent cities and new cities in northern Sinai to accommodate the deported population, and then create a closed security zone stretching several kilometers inside Egypt.
In other words, to build another open air prison.
I mean, Gaza is already described as an open air prison, but Israel has decided they want Gaza.
So basically, this is a prisoner move.
They're pushing all the prisoners out by bombing them, threatening them, killing them, and then they want to build a new prison in the Sinai Peninsula and imprison them there.
Because that land is even less desirable than the land that the Gaza Strip is on right now.
Again, this is just an Israeli land theft operation.
In the name of Zionism, of course.
And Netanyahu's quote, the Bible, God made me do it.
Yeah.
And pushing this problem onto Egypt.
And then from the story, quote, the deported Palestinians would not be allowed to return to any areas near the Israeli border.
The article goes on and says, And it talks about how Israel has imposed a total siege on Gaza that cut off all the food, water, fuel, electricity, and so on to make Gaza uninhabitable.
To give the people there no choice but to leave.
Again, this is a giant prison camp move.
They're just moving prisoners from one place to another.
An official at the Ministry of Intelligence confirmed that this 10-page document is authentic, but was not supposed to reach the media.
The document recommends beginning a dedicated campaign that will, quote, motivate Gazans to agree to the plan and make them give up their land.
Gazans should be convinced.
Here comes the psychological warfare.
Gazans should be convinced that, quote, Allah made sure that you lost this land because of the leadership of Hamas.
There is no choice but to move to another place with the help of your Muslim brothers, the document reads.
So, I mean, can you believe this?
Like, Israel is bombing and slaughtering and killing civilians and women and children.
Then they're going to Pandered to the people they're bombing and say, Allah made you lose this place.
Allah!
Or Allah.
And I think that's the way that they pronounce it.
Can you imagine that?
That would be like, oh, I don't know, like Iran bombing Israel and laying siege to Israel and cutting off all the water and food, electricity, and killing women and children and then saying, Jesus Christ's That made you lose this battle so you could leave this place.
I mean, that would be the equivalent of that.
That's how insulting this is from a religious point of view.
Yeah.
Allah said you should leave Gaza, you know, so that Israel can have it.
Really?
All right.
From the article, furthermore, the plan states the government must launch a public relations campaign.
That will promote this transfer program to Western nations in a way that does not promote hostility to Israel or damage its reputation.
Well, fail on that count.
That one's done.
Israel's lost its reputation.
Especially as this document's coming out.
The deportation of the population from Gaza must be presented as a necessary humanitarian measure.
I mean, it just goes on.
I mean, this whole thing, this is so evil.
I mean, this is just a flat out, this is an admission to a genocidal conspiracy on the part of Israel targeting Palestinian civilians with a nefarious plot to steal their land.
And even to recruit the United States in achieving this and to deceive the international community.
That's what this is.
This is an open admission of war crimes.
This shows that the leaders of Israel's government and military should indeed be indicted by the ICC for crimes against humanity.
I mean, this document should be exhibit number one.
Here's the evidence.
This was their plan.
They're carrying it out.
They're following it.
It's a plan rooted in deception and murder to steal people's land and displace them.
I mean, open and shut case.
Alright, next I'm going to play a video of Netanyahu admitting to all of this on camera.
I mean, it's incredible.
This video is from a few years ago.
I think, in fact, 13 years ago is what this says on YouTube.
But in this video, Netanyahu is saying exactly what this plan calls for.
It's almost word for word.
So give this a listen.
He says, the main thing is first and foremost to hit them hard.
Not just one hit, but many painful so that the price will be unbearable.
The price is not unbearable now.
A total assault on the Palestinian Authority to bring them to a state of panic that everything is collapsing.
Fear that everything will collapse, this is what will bring them to.
The woman says, wait a minute, at that point the whole world will say, what, are you occupiers?
Netanyahu says, no, the world won't say anything.
They will say we are defending ourselves, skipping ahead, especially now with America.
I know what America is.
America is a thing that can be easily moved in the right direction.
They, the Americans, will not bother us.
Let's suppose that the Americans will say something to us, so they say it, so what?
80% of the Americans support us.
We have such great support there, it's absurd.
And we say, what shall we do with this support?
So anyway, he goes on, but there he is on camera, in his own words, admitting that this has been the plan all along, to hit the Palestinians hard, collapse their system, And then say that we, Israel, we're defending ourselves.
And to rely on the support of 80% of the American people in order to carry this out.
And sure enough, they started out with about 80% support.
I think that's collapsed to maybe half that at this point.
Maybe 40%, maybe less.
And it's collapsing every day.
You give this another two weeks like this, support for Israel will collapse to 30%, 25%, 20%.
It's going to keep collapsing.
Because the more people become aware of what Israel is doing here, the total violations of international law, the assault on humanity, the suffering, the children buried alive under the rubble of residential buildings bombed by IDF bombs, the more the world wakes up to that, the more the world condemns Israel.
And that's why I said earlier, Netanyahu is actually bringing Israel to its defeat.
He is destroying Israel's reputation, destroying Israel's moral high ground that they've held for generations.
In one month, Netanyahu has done more damage to Israel than what Hamas and Hezbollah have done in over 75 years.
Netanyahu thought he was going to be the savior of Israel and he's actually the destroyer of Israel.
And frankly, unless they back down, Israel will be lucky to survive this, especially now that this plan has come out.
And it's not just Netanyahu saying this either.
I want to play a video for you of Israel's former ambassador to Italy.
He served as ambassador from 2019 through 2022.
And just a few days ago, he appeared on Italian media.
And you've got to hear what he says.
Now, it's in Italian, so I'm going to read the subtitles for you.
But you have got to hear this because this is astonishing.
I would like to say that we in Israel...
This is Dror Aydar.
At least the population are not interested in all this rational Palestinian talks.
He goes on and says, for us there is one purpose.
To destroy Gaza, to destroy this absolute evil, he says.
to destroy this.
There is no chance that after the Holocaust, Jewish people will live a similar experience as they were 80 years ago.
After October 7th, every person in the world who threatens a Jew He's apparently a slow talker.
or kills a Jew has to die, he says.
So, There we go.
Not interested in rational talks with the Palestinians.
He's saying essentially that you have to completely destroy Gaza, which means to commit genocide.
And he says that because of the Holocaust, that that justifies genocide against the Palestinians.
So in other words, he's arguing that because the Holocaust was committed against Jews, now then Jews have the right to carry out a Holocaust, a new one, against anybody else.
Anyone they target.
Palestinians in this case.
Who knows who to be next, huh?
But then anyone who threatens to kill a Jew has to die, even though he's threatening to kill Palestinians.
Which means that if a Palestinian were saying to him the same thing that he's saying, that they would say that he has to die because he's calling for other people to die who are Palestinians.
I mean, this is some twisted stuff.
And this isn't some fringe radio host from Israel or something.
This is the ambassador to Italy.
These are Israeli officials saying these things.
And I've played other videos on other days.
Israeli officials and military leaders and the president or the prime minister calling for genocide, calling for total annihilation of the Palestinian people.
This is not a fringe theory.
This is not hyperbole or exaggeration.
These are their own words.
They're calling for genocide every day.
And every day that they do this, they're destroying the reputation of Israel.
And that's exactly what just came back to bite them hard.
With Joe Biden tweeting out that the Biden administration cannot support the Palestinians in Gaza being displaced to Egypt or any other nation.
Boom!
Unbelievable.
I mean, wow.
This was reported...
On Ahram Online, October 29th, Sisi and Biden probe developments of Gaza escalation reject displacement of Palestinians.
And here's the English translation.
During the call, el-Sisi reiterated Egypt's firm rejection of policies that collectively punish and displace the Palestinian people.
Biden, for his part, affirmed to LCC that the U.S. likewise rejects the displacement of Palestinians outside their homeland, expressing his appreciation for the positive role played by Egypt in this crisis, said Egyptian presidential spokesman Ahmed Fahmi.
The call touched upon the importance of preventing the expansion of the conflict into the region, added Fahmi.
I'm not trying to mispronounce that, by the way.
I think I'm trying to pronounce that correctly.
So then after that, Biden was forced to declare opposition to the plans to move all these people to Egypt.
And by the way, has anybody bothered to ask Egypt?
I mean, why didn't Israel...
I mean, if the plan was to move these 2.3 million people to Egypt...
You know, you would think that somebody should ask Egypt at some point, are you cool with this?
Because Egypt is not.
And this is why, by the way, Egypt warned the IDF before October 7th and said something is about to happen.
And the IDF ignored it on purpose because they were running an op.
This was a stand-down order on purpose.
To get Israel attacked, to set all of this into motion.
So Egypt tried to prevent all of this and they were shut down by the IDF and Netanyahu's regime.
But in any case, Egypt is not in a position to take on two plus million refugees.
Egypt has its own economic problems and its own cultural and political problems.
Egypt is a high Muslim population country, but a country whose leaders have been pretty darn friendly with the West.
And its population is not happy with that.
And no doubt Egypt's leaders have to be thinking right now that if they go too far in siding with Israel and the United States in the current situation, they may face an internal revolution, a coup.
The Egyptian government could be overthrown.
And frankly, Jordanian officials probably have the same concern right now, too.
Both Egypt and Jordan have been really friendly to the West.
Their governments have, while their own populations despise the West.
So if their leadership, if they don't handle this situation correctly, they could absolutely be thrown out of power, even maybe murdered by their own people.
And the crazier Israel gets in Gaza, the more angry the domestic populations in Jordan, who are mostly, let's face it, previously displaced Palestinians, you know, as well as all the Muslims in Egypt, they're all going to get increasingly angry and demand they're all going to get increasingly angry and demand pushback against Israel.
So Egypt is not in a position to take on 2.3 million Palestinian refugees just so Israel can have more land.
And Israel can achieve its goal of seizing Gaza.
No.
Egypt is saying, hell no.
We can't do that.
You're out of your mind.
And now even Biden is saying, no, this is not going to work.
So it then begs the question, what are Israel's options now?
I mean, if they continue the bombing in Gaza, they destroy the reputation of Israel with each passing day all around the world.
If they stop the bombing...
Then Hamas won't be destroyed.
Hamas will persist.
And if anything, based on the events of the last few weeks, Hamas will have the easiest time recruiting ever imaginable.
Hamas will be even larger and stronger after this.
Unless Israel completely destroys Hamas.
But the only way to do that is to destroy all of Gaza.
Which would mean pushing out 2.3 million people.
Well, Biden's already said we can't support that.
Egypt can't support it.
Jordan's not going to take them.
There's pushback against America taking all those refugees.
Where are they going to go?
Europe is not going to take that many Palestinian refugees.
They're already overrun with other largely Muslim refugees, by the way, and illegal immigrants and so on.
So no one can take them.
Which means the only way that Israel gets Gaza now is to commit genocide.
And to not just kill 8,000 people, the current number is more like 8,500 Palestinians, but for them to start slaughtering 100,000, six figures, or 500,000, or a million.
I mean, to literally carry out a genocidal mass murder campaign Which is certain, certain, to bring on full military assaults from Turkey, Iran, Syria, and other countries.
And Hezbollah, for sure.
If Israel pushes it that far, at some point, the other Arab nations will step in and stop them.
There's no question whatsoever about that.
They might be at that point, right about now anyway.
I mean, they're getting close to 10,000 civilian deaths.
When this hits 10,000, five figures of dead civilians, and those are just the ones who can be confirmed right now.
All those deaths have names attached to them.
These aren't made-up numbers.
These are real people who have been killed by Israel with the help of the United States.
As that number crosses 10,000, what do you think Turkey is going to do?
Erdogan has already said he's about to step in and wage war against Israel.
There is no possible way that Israel could carry out this indiscriminate killing campaign without themselves getting viciously attacked and overrun by Arab nations, Muslim armies from various countries.
Israel has no way out of this.
Do you understand?
Israel has no way out.
They have painted themselves into a corner.
And the only real option, the option of peace, cannot be chosen by the current leader Netanyahu because he would find himself imprisoned and probably charged with crimes against humanity under the ICC. So he can never choose that option.
So Israel can't choose peace, they can't win the war, they can't keep bombing Gaza, and they can't stop bombing Gaza.
No matter what they do, Israel is effed.
No matter what they do.
Because of the decisions that Netanyahu has taken to drive things to this point.
And by the way, no matter what Israel does, Israel's international reputation is ruined.
For generations to come, Israel will forever be seen by a lot of people who were previously neutral.
Israel will be forever seen as a nation that carried out war crimes and genocide against innocent civilians.
Israel will be perceived as the nation carrying out a Holocaust.
Forevermore, not just by the Palestinian people, not just by Arabs, but by a lot of other people who, again, were previously rather neutral on this.
Not anymore.
Israel has already done so much damage to itself, or I should say Netanyahu, because again, the Israeli people largely disagree with Netanyahu.
He did not even receive the majority support in the last election.
I think he only got like 37% of the vote or something.
And maybe that's the answer for the Israeli people.
There is one option here, which is that if the Israeli people could overthrow Netanyahu and stop the genocide and arrest Netanyahu themselves and hold him accountable for the crimes and apologize to the which is that if the Israeli people could overthrow Netanyahu and stop the genocide and arrest Netanyahu themselves and hold him accountable for the crimes and apologize to the world and actually And actually make Netanyahu the scapegoat, then that's the only way that Israel itself can come out of this with its reputation intact.
Because then the world will see that in the end, the Israeli people rose up and rejected the genocide and the war crimes.
And they held Netanyahu accountable for his crimes that he led.
It was his plot.
It was his sinister lies and propaganda and stand-down order on October 7th.
The blame can be laid at Netanyahu's feet and probably should be.
That's the only escape route for the Israeli people as far as I can see.
And I hope they take that option.
I hope Netanyahu is arrested tomorrow.
I hope the people of Israel rise up and say, stop the violence.
But I don't know if that's going to happen.
I kind of doubt it.
But I wish it would.
And do you realize the reputational damage this is going to be causing to Christian Zionists in America?
To those who support Israel in this effort, as the truth comes out about the scale of the deception, the genocide, the lies, the war crimes, those in America who supported this will themselves Live in shame.
Just as those in Nazi Germany lived in shame after Hitler was finally killed and the truth came out about the concentration camps that far too many Germans had known about but they had looked the other way.
That's going to happen to a lot of Jews in America who are looking the other way right now and actually even advocating in many cases this genocide.
They will hang their heads in shame, rightly so.
For what they have been involved with, especially if Netanyahu faces his day in court and the blame for these crimes is placed at his feet, which is, again, probably the only real option that Israel has for its reputation to survive this as a nation.
If Israel hopes to have any support from the West from this point forward, it's going to have to denounce what Netanyahu has done.
And it's much better that come from within rather than from external forces.
Otherwise, if the Israeli people go along with this and Netanyahu remains in power and he pursues this endless war, this genocide, this Holocaust against the Palestinian people, I have no question that Israel will be overrun and destroyed by the Arab nations.
And Israel will be no more, at least not in its current location.
And that all that land will be, I mean, most of it will probably be returned to the Palestinians and other portions of that land may be taken back by Jordan, for example, the West Bank, and maybe Lebanon.
Maybe Egypt wants some land back.
It probably will be a land grab and maybe Saudi Arabia wants in on the action.
Who knows?
Syria.
But the only way that Israel survives this is to denounce this genocide.
And I don't see that happening.
Usually when nations like this have made a series of bad decisions that land them in a corner, they get increasingly desperate in their actions.
And they do desperate crazy things, which in this case will very likely involve Israel launching nuclear weapons at some point.
That's probably where this goes.
You know, Israel's run by a lunatic madman, Netanyahu.
A murderous serial killer who thinks that God is speaking to him to carry out a Holocaust against other people.
And he will use nuclear weapons.
He probably is only being restrained by the United States at this point.
But eventually he'll use them.
Eventually he'll reject anything the U.S. says and he'll just launch nukes.
That's probably where this goes.
And once that happens, all bets are off.
I hope you realize that we, the people of the world, we're going to be lucky to get through this without having a nuclear holocaust.
Nuclear weapons will fly throughout the region.
They will take out naval vessels.
They will irradiate the seas and the land.
And the radiation will spread, you know, even through Turkey, Afghanistan, Syria, Iraq, and beyond.
And the lands, I mean, this is getting biblical.
The lands will not be able to produce, you know, olive trees and fruits and the leaves will fall to the ground, you know, right?
You've read this.
Because of the radiation fallout.
That's what's coming.
But if there's a chance to stop this...
It is by doing what I am doing right now, and hopefully what you are joining me in doing, which is calling for peace, calling for a ceasefire, calling for de-escalation.
It doesn't matter what side you're on.
If you're on a side, I mean like the Palestinian side or the Israeli side, I'm not on either one of those sides.
I'm on humanity's side.
That's it.
But even if you're on one of those sides, Join me in calling for a ceasefire or we all die.
I mean most of the world dies if this becomes a nuclear holocaust.
We all suffer.
Billions of people.
Not just the 8,000 plus Palestinians that have been killed so far and the 1,400 Israelis that were killed during the Hamas terrorism attacks on October 7th.
We're talking about right now about 10,000 people have died on both sides.
That's a drop in the bucket compared to the number that will die if this escalates to nuclear weapons.
And that's exactly the track that it is on.
We can live.
I mean, the world doesn't end with 10,000 deaths.
I mean, it's horrifying.
Don't get me wrong.
But it doesn't end civilization.
We can absorb that kind of hit.
I mean, actually, we've absorbed a lot more with the vaccine genocide.
The vaccine bioweapons have killed easily 20 million people around the world already.
Hasn't brought down civilization.
It's killed a lot of people.
But the world can absorb a million deaths even.
10 million, 20 million, 100 million.
I'm not sure the world can survive a thermonuclear world war that destroys the food production capabilities on the planet for at least two years.
I'm not sure how many people can survive that.
We'd be lucky to have one in 10 survive.
We're talking about a wipeout of over 7 billion people.
These are almost unimaginable numbers.
So if you don't want to die from famine and starvation and societal collapse and unrest and violence, join me in calling for peace.
It's simple.
Just get on social media, get on Twitter, get on brighteon.social, post videos, Post comments everywhere and say, call for peace.
Stop the insanity.
Stop the escalation.
We can't survive world nuclear war.
We've got to back down from these lunatics like Netanyahu that are leading us into an insane situation.
And frankly, the Biden regime had been pushing towards this, but right now they're starting to back off a little bit.
So maybe this pressure is working.
Maybe we can all back down.
Maybe we can de-escalate and avert this.
And then we can choose a new future where we don't have to live through the worst parts of the Bible in the next two years.
Maybe we can push that out a while.
Let somebody else in another century deal with it, maybe.
I don't know.
Or maybe we avert it forever.
Maybe it's just a warning from God and we don't have to live through that warning if we choose a different path.
We can make a choice right now.
And I know it takes courage to say the right thing I know you're up against a bunch of trolls and bots calling you an anti-Semite unless you support Israel's genocide and ethnic cleansing.
So what?
It doesn't mean anything.
Their words, they don't mean anything.
What matters is the future of human civilization.
And we don't have a future if we don't back down from this.
If everybody starts launching nukes, it's done.
So it doesn't matter what...
What you think.
Somebody says something about you online.
It doesn't matter.
What matters is whether we have a future together.
And that can only be achieved through peace and coexistence and universal human rights, by the way, that recognize the right of every single person to live.
And the existence of consciousness and self-determination Which is the basis upon which, by the way, the Bill of Rights was written.
It's based on this concept that we are self-aware, conscious beings, divinely created in the image of God.
Even those who may not recognize God for who he is, or they might not use the name Jesus Christ, they are still children of God, even if they don't know it.
Because every human being is created in the image of God.
Every human child is a child of God.
There are no exceptions to this.
And if you think there are exceptions, if you think that one group of children is evil and dark, as Netanyahu says, and that one group of children has to be slaughtered in order to protect another group of children who are the children of light, then you are a religious fanatic zealot.
And people like you are responsible for untold evil, suffering, death, and destruction throughout world history.
But I know that most of you listening are not like that.
Hopefully all of you.
We believe in the Creator and we believe in the rights of other people to exist along with us.
Live and let live.
That's what we believe.
And if we can share that mission with enough people, then God help us, we may all get through this yet.
That's my hope and that's my prayer.
So call your members of Congress and your senators, the office of the president, and say, no more support for Israel if it's going to carry out genocide and ethnic cleansing.
Back away from it.
Call for peace.
Call for a ceasefire.
Call for diplomacy.
Because if we don't choose that path, then guess what?
A lot of us die.
A lot of us all over the world die.
Because, you know, again, nuclear war wipes out the food supply globally for about two years.
So do the math on that one.
Yeah.
Unless you have a two-year food supply, you're not going to survive that.
Of course, you not only need a two-year food supply, you also need the firepower to defend your two-year food supply from others who are starving to death.
But from a practical level, it is worth noting, by the way, that the hungrier people get, the weaker they get.
And those who are starving tend to not be very effective fighters.
So the longer you can hold out, the better your chances are of succeeding in holding out.
Because the attackers that come at you will be weaker and weaker with each passing day.
I know.
A gruesome subject to consider, isn't it?
But these are the times in which we live.
And those are scenarios that I am desperately trying to help humanity avoid.
I don't want anybody to starve.
I don't want anybody to die.
And I personally don't want to ever have to shoot anybody to defend my ranch or my food supply or my family.
I don't want to shoot anybody.
I want to see everybody do well.
Let's find out what Israel wants to do.
Because right now, what they do has a big impact on the future of us all.
Now we're going to go to our interview with Andy Sheckman.
Let me give credit to our sponsors today.
The satellite phone store, SAT123, also a pro-humanity organization in the sense that they help save lives.
And they provide backup satellite phones to first responders and emergency services everywhere.
Sometimes or often on just a donation basis, by the way.
But you can get a satellite phone so that you can communicate from anywhere in the world, even in Gaza.
If you happen to be there, you're going to need a satellite phone.
And they have baby sticks, two-way text messaging that uses satellites, not cell towers, so you can get a text message out.
You can receive text messages anywhere in the world, from any ocean, from any continent, anywhere that you can see the sky, any jungle, any desert.
Check them out at sat123.com.
And gold and silver.
By the way, if we get peace in Israel, which is what I'm hoping for, I have no doubt that gold and silver prices will fall.
I'm praying for that.
I hope gold falls because I hope and pray for peace.
But if we don't get peace, gold and silver are going to probably skyrocket.
The more crazy the war gets, the higher the price of metals will move.
And also the price of oil, by the way.
What this means is that gold and silver are right now an especially good insurance policy of sorts against the loss of assets and the loss of economic activity stemming from World War, beginning with the regional conflict there in the Middle East.
That's why a lot of people are moving into gold and silver right now.
Our sponsor in that space is the Treasure Island Coins and Precious Metals Company.
You can reach them at metalswithmike.com.
That's metalswithmike.com.
And you can see their real-time pricing.
And they offer insured, discreet delivery of physical metals into your hands.
And they also run IRS-approved IRAs, retirement accounts, with vaulted metals that can help protect you against currency volatility, bank collapses, and insolvency of governments.
But, hey, I'm not your financial advisor.
My disclaimer is, do your own research.
Get your own financial advisor.
Make your own financial decisions that are best for you.
And understand that gold and silver can, like I said earlier, they can go down in price.
And I hope they do.
I hope they do.
I'm very concerned that the opposite is going to happen.
And then finally, healthrangerstore.com is my online store.
And we have iodine right now with organic glycerin.
We have iodine with alcohol in it.
This is supplementary iodine.
We also have my line of knives co-designed with Dawson knives using the magna cut steel alloy that is nearly corrosion proof.
Just go to healthrangerstore.com and search for knives or search for ranger buckets for the food supply or look at the survival supplies there or the nutritional supplements we have and get what you need to be prepared.
We're currently not experiencing any major shortages.
We have a pretty good supply right now.
I mean, the supply chain is still a problem.
Everything is delayed, but we're not seeing wipeouts on the consumer side yet.
But once this war gets underway, if that's what happens, especially if other countries start to get involved, then I anticipate we'll probably sell every last bucket of food that we have in less than two weeks.
It'll just be gone.
You know, UPS will just have to bring in, like, tractor trailers for us to load up, and we'll just load them up.
You know, pallets, buy pallets, whatever it takes, and ship them out to you, and then it'll be done, and we'll have nothing more to offer.
Because I guess we'll all just be in wait-and-see mode at that point, but that day is coming, I have a feeling.
Until then, we have supply.
HealthRangerStore.com.
And we thank you for your support.
And thank you for understanding that I'm not taking sides in this war other than the side of humanity.
That's it.
I absolutely agree that Israel has the right...
To root out and prosecute Hamas for what they carried out.
I absolutely agree with that.
But I also believe in the right of every human being to live, to have access to basic food and water, electricity, the basic necessities of life.
And I believe it's wrong to bomb women and children.
I mean, so sue me.
I'm sticking with it.
So I'm on the side of humanity.
That's where I stand.
But thank you for your support.
No matter where you stand on all of these issues, understand I'm on the side of humanity.
And if some country were bombing Israeli women and children, I would be speaking out against that country's actions.
It's because I'm driven by universal principles, not tribalism.
So thank you for your understanding.
All right, now enjoy this interview, this very informative interview with Andy Sheckman.
This is one you don't want to miss.
And I'll be back with you tomorrow.
All right, welcome everybody.
Mike Adams here coming to you live today on Brighteon.tv.
I've got a special guest coming up, Andy Sheckman from Miles Franklin.
As you know, we had originally scheduled a fundraising telethon for today.
We delayed that because of the crisis in the Middle East.
Effectively, you know, we kind of need A solution for all of humanity right now.
Otherwise, we're going to go over the cliff into some very bad territory.
Some of what Andy Schachman is going to be covering with us today, my special guest, is the economic consequences of all of this.
And I just want to thank you for all your support over all these years, supporting our network and supporting brighteon.tv, brighteonradio.com, healthrangerstore.com.
We couldn't do this without you.
And I do want you to know that no matter what you are about to hear, that we are philosophically dedicated to protecting human life and that we value all human lives of all ethnicities, of all skin colors, of all even orientations, everything all across the world.
We don't want to see one more child killed.
We don't want to see any more bloodshed.
We want peace.
But we live in a world where the powers that be want war.
And because they are in control, sadly, and maybe we can do something about that with elections, but because they are in control, they're going to bring us to war.
And so we have to understand the economic consequences, the consequences to the dollar, to your savings accounts, your pensions, to your lifestyle.
Everything that you're used to as an American or wherever you're watching from is about to be put in real jeopardy.
Because of the events that are taking place.
And so I'm proud to be able to bring you this platform with the help of all the people there in the studio who are making this happen and Bob Denny and Bob Sisson and so many others and Alan Keyes.
We're very proud to be able to bring you this platform where we can have Uncensored discussions about all of this in real time as events are unfolding.
So with that said, allow me to bring in my guest today, Andy Sheckman, who is the CEO of Miles Franklin, the website milesfranklin.com.
Andy Sheckman is the man who has the best analysis of de-dollarization around the world.
He's been on that for years.
He was right again and again and again.
He was the first to be talking about the BRICS Nation's Great to be here.
I appreciate it, Mike.
Thanks for having me.
Hopefully I don't get kicked out of this room that I'm in.
I got up at 3 in the morning and did some traveling this afternoon and I'm in a hotel and found a A meeting room that was unoccupied, so excuse the informality, but I'm glad to be here and wouldn't miss it whenever there's an opportunity.
Well, I begged you to come on today, so thank you for making time in your schedule, even though I knew you were traveling.
World events are happening at such a rapid pace.
If you get kicked out of the room, find another room.
We'll just reconnect you.
Don't worry about it.
Sounds good.
Or tell them you can't kick me out.
We're trying to save the world.
We're on live, right to you on TV. So let's start with a couple of facts just in the last 24 hours.
Wall Street Journal reporting that the United States and Israel have jointly decided to delay Israel's full-scale ground assault on Gaza so that the U.S. military can position anti-air defense systems and get them up and running, which may take about another week.
This tells me that the U.S. is anticipating very profound escalations of rocket attacks from Hezbollah in particular, and possibly ballistic missiles, medium-range missiles from Iran.
It also means that the U.S. and Israel are anticipating that they are absolutely planning to go into Gaza.
And as you know, Andy, once they do that, it sets off a chain reaction of world events.
So let me hand it to you now.
What do you think?
What are the dominoes that begin to fall once this gets ignited?
Right.
Well, you know, it's a scary thought.
I think that the conflict could very quickly escalate into a regional war, as you're Alluding to, and with the United States becoming directly involved, I think that that is a high probability, unfortunately.
You have many of these countries that are the OPEC nations that are directly opposed to the United States and Israeli agenda, and the possibility, I would think, of them responding with some sort of an oil embargo becomes I think rather probable.
I think you see Iran and their naval fleet do all they can to halt the passage of safe passage of tankers through the Straits of Hormuz.
It is the choke point for nearly 20% of the world's oil.
I think you'll see a spike in energy prices.
And obviously, when we talk about energy going higher, you know, anything that we do, It has a component of energy in it, from touching, you know, surfing the internet, to mining, to farming, to anything you do, driving a car, there's energy involved.
And so as the price of energy goes higher, we can anticipate much higher inflation.
I think we could also anticipate central banks responding accordingly, which Then creates the domino effect that we've talked about in various forms the last few times we've been together.
The financial markets in the banking sector react inversely to escalating interest rates, and it's a doom loop.
Much of this is a doom loop, in particular with the banks.
The petrodollar trade collapses.
Hyperinflation emerges.
There's your Operation Sandman moment.
And this is not, I think, hyperbole.
There's a high percentage that something along these lines or a form of this type of reaction happens, as far as I'm concerned.
And what's extraordinary is that even right now, today, we're seeing a lot of escalations.
Yemen calling for an energy embargo, for example, and Erdogan out of Turkey saying that he is willing to dedicate Turkish military forces to kinetically engage Israel.
If Israel does not stop the bombing of Gaza.
And I understand you have some background noise there because you're in a hotel room.
Don't worry about it.
Our audience understands.
But we are seeing escalation talk now that is about to translate into reality.
It's not just going to stay at talk.
Everything is about to go kinetic in the region.
And Israel itself is going to be under severe attack.
It's quite clear.
By now, and the US, as we know, has long wanted to escalate this to attack Iran.
But is it possible that the US and Israel are miscalculating the capabilities of the Arab nations that surround Israel, who have engaged in a lot of development?
For example, Iran has hypersonic missiles, and they can also receive other missiles from Russia and so on.
But are the Western allies, then, Potentially miscalculating how bad this is going to be and how vulnerable they might be, in your opinion?
Absolutely.
I think there's always the possibility of miscalculation.
And when you're talking about this current administration and the way they seem to do things, starting with the retreat out of Afghanistan in 2021, I wouldn't put any type of miscalculation by them.
This is something that could turn very dirty very quickly.
You know, when you talk about the fact that in the span of the last year, Iran has joined not only the BRICS nations, but also the Shanghai Cooperation Organization, which is the largest regional military and financial organization on the planet.
I highlight the word military, and I haven't seen anyone talk about The SCO getting involved in this or any of the BRICS nations, but I guess what I'm simply trying to say is that especially as it pertains to the majority of the OPEC countries being involved with BRICS and or the Belt Road Initiative,
I think this is something that not only could become something that we could have easily miscalculated in terms of the impact of aggression and war, but also in terms of the The financial impact and the economic impact, which could get very, very dangerous very quickly in the respect that if all of these OPEC countries, this could be the moment where they say, listen, you know, our interests are not aligned anymore on many levels, so we're done taking dollars for oil.
And at that moment, not only are you fighting two wars, But you're watching simultaneously a collapse of your economy, your dollar, your markets, interest rates spike.
It's that Operation Sandman moment.
It's the wrong time for the U.S. to have to go through something like that, and it could happen very easily.
Yeah, this is a really critical point that you're making.
Thank you for bringing it up, where because of the U.S. pressuring the SWIFT system to cut off Russia from international dollar-denominated transactions and also effectively Stealing Russia's $300 billion plus in dollar-denominated assets in Western central banks.
It seems like a message was sent a year and a half ago to the world by the West.
Don't trust us.
Don't trust our banks.
Don't trust our dollar.
Don't trust our currency.
And in this moment in the Middle East, where you see now everybody is picking a side.
And almost everybody in the Middle East is picking the side opposed to Israel, by the way, including Saudi Arabia, which was supposed to be an Israeli ally and a U.S. ally until recently.
It seems to indicate that these countries, they've probably reached a moment where they're fed up with dollar weaponization.
They're fed up with Western central banks.
They're fed up with the money printing.
And they see that sooner or later they're going to have to cut the cord.
And it's going to be painful to do so.
And it's going to be a bumpy ride for them even to switch over to something else.
But they have their foot in the water already.
Doing oil trades in rubles or rupees or the yuan, those things have been happening now for quite some time, well over a year.
And those are increasing.
And the usage of the euro is just collapsing in terms of international settlements.
I agree with you, Andy.
I think that coming soon, I think all of these non-Western nations, i.e.
the BRICS nations, are going to say, maybe we weren't 100% ready, but this is the time to do it.
What do you think?
I think that's exactly right.
And let's use Iraq as an example of why these countries feel that way.
I mean, you've documented perfectly The weaponization of the world reserve currency.
That's a no-no.
When you control the world reserve currency, it's not your prerogative.
It shouldn't be anyway to weaponize a dollar at your will, especially a country like the United States, who these other countries around the globe view as being very hypocritical.
Now, why would I say that?
Well, you know, we invaded Iraq in 2003, 20 years ago, under the guise of weapons of mass destruction, we didn't find any.
Oops, we're sorry.
We destroyed your country.
We toppled the regime.
We supposedly put in a new regime, allegedly.
And let's take a look at what's happening there right now.
All of their oil revenue, last year, 2022, they made $90 billion in oil revenue.
And all of that money, for whatever reason, has to be paid and sitting in a reserve account at the Federal Reserve in New York.
Just last month, Iraq said, hey, can we please have a billion of our $90 billion that we made in 2022?
And they said, no, no, you can't.
So when you talk about, you know, the Iraqi oil funds, which are being held by the New York Fed, where currently we are sanctioning 14 of the Iraqi banks for accusing them of trading in dollars with Iran for natural gas so they don't fry in the middle of the, you know, the summer, it's 110 degrees.
And all of this money that they make in selling oil, even 20 years later, after supposedly we put in a sovereign government, they're still restrained or restricted from opening accounts for its oil earnings outside the U.S., and we won't even give them a billion dollars.
So when you talk about Iraq saying we're going to fully de-dollarize cash transactions by the end of the year, when you see that they're making it illegal for businesses to trade in dollars, this is the rallying cry.
And absolutely, I think I think a lot of the countries around the world not only are at their wit's ends in terms of the coercion and the bullying, but also in the mismanagement of our country inside and out.
And I wouldn't be surprised to see this happening.
Real quick.
Absolutely.
And it's also clear that a lot of these countries that have been buying U.S. Treasury debt, which is bolstering support for the dollar currency and allowing the Federal Reserve to print more dollars without causing hyperinflation, right?
The more debt they can sell, the more they can print, obviously.
But a lot of these countries are realizing, hey, why are we supporting what they see as a regime, the U.S. government regime, that is using our assets to help them print money to send more weapons to Israel and Ukraine and Taiwan?
Those are the three proxy nations, so that the U.S. can wage war with Russia, Iran, and China, right?
So it's like, and then Janet Yellen comes along and says, hey, we can afford a two-front war.
We can afford a three-front war.
Can I hear a four-front war?
Who's going to give me five-front war?
You know, and it's insane.
It's completely insane.
And the world is looking at that, saying, maybe we don't want to, number one, fund this, and also maybe we don't want to be owed money by these crazy countries, i.e.
the U.S., that just is going to print until it all goes to zero.
You think some of that's happening as well?
Oh yeah, 100%.
You got $123 billion dumped by the BRICS nation so far this year in treasuries, China being the leader of that pack at $118 billion.
But you got Brazil, you got India, you got the United Arab Emirates, and of course, Saudi Arabia, the lowest level of treasuries they've held in six years, and also the lowest amount of oil that they're sending us in six years.
So yes, sides are definitely being chosen 100%.
And that's exactly it, I think.
And you're right.
The point that you made about speeding things up, and I think they aren't ready to flip that switch yet.
They need a bigger group.
We have 27 countries that have expressed interest or formally applied to the BRICS, with another 22 that have informally applied.
You come back a year later with 30, 40, 50 countries in this group, and you now have an incredibly formidable But as it is right now, just the BRICS 11, they're incredibly formidable.
30% of global GDP just in this emerging block and the majority of all the oil being pumped across the globe and on and on and on, all the commodities.
So yes, they are definitely going to challenge the dollar at some point, and this is the type of deal that could very quickly accelerate their agenda.
All right, let's shift gears a little bit to gold and silver.
Now, just in case our audience is not familiar with you, you're the CEO of milesfranklin.com.
And even though you're dressed kind of casually today because of your travel, again, I appreciate you taking time out of your schedule to join us.
You actually help clients oversee literally hundreds of millions, if not billions of dollars in assets and many, many hundreds of millions of dollars in and out of silver and gold each year.
I'm curious about what you have seen Yeah, you know, it's been a very somewhat of an eerily quiet time.
In fact, don't get me wrong, the demand is still outrageous, but not what I would expect it to be, yet there is still this This illusion, I guess, or this feeling in the United States that everything will always be okay, and people have yet to really become concerned.
I think that will come.
I think that will come at the expense of a bank bail-in, because there's so few people out there that understand that bank bail-ins were written into law, and when Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank were bailed out, that was missed by the public that this was a one-off, According to Janet, they were too systemic or to brought down the whole system.
The next bank that fails, I believe, will be bailed in, and that will wake people up far more than these conflicts that the United States seems to find themselves dragging into, no matter how horrendous they are.
This is something that we've just grown used to, unfortunately.
I don't think it's rattled the bushes quite yet the way that we would think.
I will say this to you, and Without mentioning names, I spent an afternoon at one of the wealthiest families in the United States at their home two days ago.
They asked me to come through a financial advisor through a family office to come and meet them in person.
So it has certainly woken some very wealthy people up, no question about it.
They're top 15 wealthiest families in the United States.
I will tell you that that is something that is unusual, to see that kind of wealth, to see that kind of interest by people who are bypassing their financial advisors, bypassing their family interests, and demanding that they get physical metal in their possession.
And I drove about nine hours round trip and spent a whole day with this family Specifically because they're terrified.
And I think that this is a situation where people, if you are not a contrarian, if you're not concerned, you're not paying attention because we are at a very, very dangerous place for the dollar right now.
When you say specifically because they're terrified, and I know, of course, you're going to protect their privacy and details, but what are people terrified of specifically right now?
I think they're afraid of the dollar.
They're afraid of the banking system.
They're afraid of the markets.
They're afraid of the instability.
I think that, you know, let's look at the bond market, for example.
A lot of these very wealthy families have very large bond positions.
And over the last three years, the bond portfolios that they have will, in retrospect, will be the worst performing bond market really in history.
Over the last three years, the 10-year Treasury is down 50%.
Yeah.
And increasing.
And so you're seeing, you know, these people are watching their wealth evaporate.
They're being told that the banks aren't safe.
They don't want to go into the stock market.
You take a look at how the stock market is performing and you take that magnificent seven, it represents 98% of the gains in the stock market.
So the broad market's not doing well.
Real estate is overvalued and rates are rising.
There's an awakening by people and yet not Well, I know that you educate a lot of people, but as you were talking there, I was thinking in my mind, you're saying that their wealth is evaporating, but you and I know that holding debt is not wealth because there's counterparty risk.
That's not wealth.
Gold is wealth.
Silver is wealth.
Everything else is a proxy that has a counterparty risk.
Well, except there's certain types of crypto self-custody that doesn't have counterparty risk.
But I'm talking about in more traditional assets, gold and silver are real wealth.
Treasuries, well, you have to rely on the government to pay you back, a government that's bankrupt.
And by the way, did you see Standard& Poor's just downgraded Israel's credit rating to negative?
No, I did not see that.
I did not see that.
But by the same token...
You know, so few people understand the balance sheet of the U.S. government.
And we are broke.
We are right at that Rubicon of 130% debt to GDP. You go back through history, there's never been a country that's crossed that line that hasn't defaulted in one form or another.
And everyone, you know, knows, okay, we have a $33 trillion debt.
People don't understand how big that is.
A trillion seconds ago was 30 To 31,688 years ago.
That's a trillion seconds.
And when you talk about $33 trillion debt, You're excluding Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, and government military pensions, which are another $130 trillion of unfunded liabilities.
So we are $155 trillion in debt by the government's own admission with a $5 trillion asset base, the largest asset of the United States government being student debt.
It represents 40 plus percent of our asset base.
You pull that out, we have $3.5 trillion in assets, mostly military and land.
Backing $155 trillion in debt, we're broke, we're insolvent.
And so our balance sheet is in a horrible position.
And most people, they don't get that.
They don't realize that.
They think everything will be okay.
It couldn't happen here.
All right.
Now, I want to ask how people can contact you, but also I want to put a disclaimer up front.
This is not a paid interview.
You know, you're not paying me.
We don't have that kind of relationship.
I have you on as a guest, as an expert, but I always give you the courtesy to plug your business.
So how can people reach you if they want to work with you?
I appreciate that, Mike.
I do very much.
In fact, I like talking about these events even more than talking about buying gold and silver, but I appreciate that.
We've been in business for a long time.
It'll be 34 years this February.
We've never had a customer complaint.
You can go to our website.
It's still As you know, it's been a horror of horrors for us.
And in terms of getting it fully operational with the tax software, we're almost there.
Our mutual friend is certainly involved in helping me through this quagmire of internet craziness.
But the best way to reach us would be to get your questions answered and to see a far more competitive price sheet than you'll find online.
We like to keep that close to the best.
info at milesfranklin.com info at milesfranklin.com and just say the health ranger sent me in the subject line any questions that you have if you want to be contacted or you just want to see the competitive price sheet and we will do that.
I think you'll be glad that you did but I appreciate you letting me say that.
Yeah yeah absolutely and because I know that you like talking to our people by the way because they're super well informed and you don't have to You know, educate them from ground zero.
But look, we're about to go to break here.
We'll be right back after this break with more from Andy Sheckman.
Stay with us here on Brighteon.tv.
All right, welcome back.
This is Mike Adams here with my special guest Andy Sheckman on Brighteon.tv live today.
This was going to be our special telethon fundraising event, but we postponed that.
Because of the events in the Middle East.
So now we're in, well, crisis mode, all of us in our whole world.
We're trying not to end up in World War III. And Andy Sheckman is here to continue his analysis of world events.
Now, Andy, I want to shift gears in this segment.
Bloomberg recently put out an article, well, actually the result of research, saying that about $21 trillion in investment will be needed by the year 2050 in electrical infrastructure in order to shift us off of a fossil fuel based economy and into what they call a net zero or really a zero carbon environment by 2050.
That's 21 trillion dollars investment in electrical infrastructure required by countries that are themselves bankrupt as you were just saying last segment.
Now I want your opinion on this because this will also require nearly tripling copper mining to 13 million tons annually in order to build all the power transmission lines and so on.
And copper mining relies on equipment that mostly runs on diesel.
And diesel is a fossil fuel that's being shut down by all the Western countries that want to go to net zero.
So it's kind of like, aren't they cutting off their own legs and then wanting to run to the finish line?
It's crazy. - Of the losing the relationship with Saudi Arabia, We told them we're going green.
We signed an executive order that indeed we will be green 50% by 2030 and 80% by 2080.
You take a look at the rare earth metals, the majority of them are found, not to mention the electricity.
That's in and of itself.
That's crazy.
I mean, to pretend that you don't need fossil fuels to run the electrical plants is It's a fairy tale, but you take a look at also the rare earth metals that you need to be green.
The majority of them are found on the Eurasian continent.
You have the president of, his name is Wadudu, the president of, you know, come to me in a second.
I'm sorry, I'm on the spot.
It is, well, president of Dudu.
We'll come to me in a moment.
Anyways, he says, look, we need to make a OPEC-style cartel for the rare earth metals.
You take a look at the fact that China holds the majority of all the copper reserves on the planet.
So these things have not been thought out very well whatsoever.
At all!
There's no thought.
Yeah, and I think it's a fairy tale, to be honest with you.
So no, it's just more nonsense.
So on top of that, I mean, nickel is a big player in all of this, and of course aluminum.
Now, Russia was a major mining operation and exporter of aluminum.
And then, of course, the SWIFT system cuts off Russia from exporting everything, or nearly everything, which halts fertilizer exports, natural gas through Gazprom, the destruction of the Nord Stream pipelines, and then, of course, aluminum and many other minerals, not to mention energy.
But aluminum, in particular, is used in electrical lines and transmission lines.
It's like you have the Western countries, led by the U.S. in particular, that is waging siege warfare against itself.
Normally, when you practice siege warfare, you cut off the enemy's supply of things.
The U.S. is cutting off the U.S. supply from other countries like Russia, and now the Middle East, oil, energy, that's coming, and then trade wars with China, What happens when China retaliates and says, ah, we're tired of exporting, you know, all these products to you?
All kinds of trade wars and telecom, you know, and intellectual property, microchips and so on.
So the U.S. is waging siege warfare against itself.
This cannot possibly end well, it seems.
What's your take?
I couldn't agree with you more.
You know, it's interesting.
We talk a lot about the gold and silver being drained off of the world's exchanges, both the The LBMA and the COMEX. I suppose we can mention the Shanghai Gold Exchange as well.
But one of the things that kind of was missed by a lot of people last year was the amount of aluminum and zinc.
You mentioned aluminum.
75% of all of the aluminum held on the London Metals Exchange was delivered last year.
90% of their zinc, gone.
It's not just the gold and silver that's being Delivered and taken possession of.
It's all of these important metals.
And when you take a look at this new group, the BRICS 11, as of January 1, 2024, when they're all together, you will see 46% of the world's population.
But to your point, you'll have 75% of the world's manganese, 50% of the global graphite, 28% of the world's nickel, 10% of the world's copper, a very large portion of the world's aluminum.
So you're talking about And lithium, too.
Yes, and all of the materials that you need to, whether it be to oil or natural gas or the rare earth metals, they're all found on, a majority of them are found in these BRICS countries.
And in fact, it's interesting because you had the, you know, the head of, what's his name, the head of South Africa, Amma Perosa, let me see if I can Pull up his name here.
I have it.
Yeah, I don't recall his name either.
He's the, well, I'll find it here real quick for you because it's important.
He came out and basically just said, look, well, I guess it's not that important, but he came out and said that, look, we are, he said, well, he said, Ramaphosa.
Anyways, he said the future for critical minerals in Africa is very bright and the era of giving away our raw materials is coming to an end.
Whether you're talking about rare earth metals, whether you're talking about natural gas, you've got Venezuela who wants to join.
Obviously, we're pushing back against the Western sanctions.
They hold the largest oil reserves in the world.
They already signed Argentina, who has the largest natural gas reserves in all of South America, plus they control the Straits of Magellan.
If you take a look at all of these countries that are joining, they are very, very, very rich in energy.
And these are the countries that are signing up first, the United Arab Emirates and Iran and Saudi Arabia, all of these countries that have all of the energy, whether it be the rare earth metals or whether it be the oil or whether it be the natural gas or the routes to To accumulate them, like bringing in Egypt.
They control the Straits of Hormuz.
And so you have a situation where the shipping lanes...
The Suez Canal.
I'm sorry, the Suez Canal.
Yes, pardon me.
You have the shipping lanes, you have all of the minerals, you have all of the metals, you have all of the commodities and the energy that are being controlled by these countries, and the West is going to find themselves on the wrong end of that Exactly.
And the West's response is very predictable.
They're going to print more money.
Or, I should say currency.
See, even I'm slipping up and using the term money inappropriately.
They're going to print currency.
So, you know how this goes.
Every shortage.
Oh, you know, we're running out of artillery.
Print more currency, right?
We're running out of copper.
Print more currency.
And there's this disconnect because you can't print copper.
You can't print aluminum or nickel or zinc because they're elements, right?
You have to actually find them somewhere.
You have to get them.
You have to extract them.
Or you have to recycle them or fly out to a meteorite and scrape them off the edge of the space rocks.
You got to get them from somewhere.
You can't make them yourself.
And yet we live in a world, the Western world, dominated by this idea that we can just print whatever we need and that that does not work.
I mean, think about this with Ukraine.
Printing all of this money and saying it's for weapons for Ukraine, but the actual delivery is gone in many areas.
And even Jeffrey Prather, who is also a host on this platform, I'm going to interview him later, he told me the other day in an interview that there are now National Guard bases across the continental United States that have zero ammunition remaining because it's all been sent to Ukraine, and now some of that's being diverted to Israel.
Talk to us, if you would, about this disconnect between reality, which is power lines, transmission lines, copper, weapons, oil, fossil fuels, hydrocarbons.
Those are real things.
You can touch them.
Some of them you can put them in your pocket.
But currency, it's vaporware.
And yet they think that's going to solve everything.
Your take on it?
Well, I think that's where they're making a very big mistake.
I mean, at some point, the world gets very tired of Of the realization that we have chosen a path of inflation that will ultimately lead to hyperinflation.
You take a look at the currency and the bond market and why would anyone want to hold our currency which is being inflated away?
They have no choice.
Take everything else out of the equation.
How the heck do you just pay $130 trillion in unfunded liabilities?
Balance the budget today.
Forget about the wars.
How do you do it?
You either default or you print.
And then you throw into it two world wars.
You throw into it, or two wars, pardon me, and you throw into it the fact that we are selling or sending off all of our ammunition and putting ourselves behind the eight ball in such a massive way that the only way that we will get out of this is to print.
And you throw into it The fact that Japan and the fact that China and the fact that Saudi Arabia, they're all selling bonds.
And who's going to buy those bonds?
Who's going to continue to finance our ever-growing deficits?
I think the large portion of the world, we have exhausted the good graces of those creditors.
So at some point, rates have to rise.
They'll always be a buyer of our debt until there's not.
But the question is, at what rate?
How high do rates have to go to attract that debt?
Well, really, really excellent point because, you know, the higher the rates go, then the faster the hyperinflation blowout happens because the U.S. has to buy its own debt and just servicing the debt becomes more and more expensive.
I think even right now, servicing and paying the interest on the debt is costing the U.S. more than the entire military budget.
And that is about to just skyrocket.
Now, we're talking about compounding rapid inflation.
And this always ends badly, unless you think the rules of mathematics have changed, and they have not.
But my question to you, Andy, is for those who are not aware of what's about to happen, you know, this conversation that we're having here today, most Americans are not aware of almost anything that we've said, but it's going to destroy them.
It's like there's a tidal wave coming, and they can't see the water.
They can't see the wave, or it's an invisible wave.
But it's still going to wipe them out on the beach.
What's coming for them will be so devastating that a wipeout of the value of the dollar, people will still have money in the bank.
It just won't be worth anything.
The pensions, the social security checks, the treasuries, and stocks on top of that.
How would you describe what you think is coming for the average oblivious person who is not up to speed on all of this?
Right now all of these countries before they issue a common settlement currency have agreed to use their local currencies trading amongst one another and this is a huge problem because these countries will reduce their dollar holdings and therefore and their bond purchases so refinancing the U.S. debt becomes a problem.
It leads to higher interest rates which in turn leads to higher inflation and further debasement of the dollar and really the point here is that You know, what can't be sold to our foreign creditors has to be printed.
Inflation is coming.
But it will reach a point, I believe, and I've been very consistent about this for a couple of years now, where I believe that we will see the oil-producing countries say, we're not taking dollars anymore.
You look at OPEC. Every one of the countries is on the Belt Road Initiative.
Every one of them.
Take a look at the fact that These are the countries, as you mentioned, that are not aligned with the US and or Israel.
And this could be the straw that breaks the camel's back, where they say, listen, for 50 years, We've been taking just dollars for our oil sales.
We're not going to do that anymore.
In fact, and then reinvesting them in treasuries.
They've gotten creamed in their treasuries over the last three years and their dollar is being inflated away.
Why would they want to do that?
And this is why you're seeing this coalition of countries that are pushing together safety in numbers, but under a common goal, a common interest of breaking free from that And when they flip that switch, when the countries have aligned enough in every facet of making this a very formidable group, I think they'll say, listen, we're not taking dollars anymore.
And you have to understand that every single country on the planet has had to stockpile them for 50 years.
That tsunami of inflation will hit our shores.
And it creates a moment where Interest rates have to spike tremendously to compensate for that inflation, which then collapses the stocks, the bonds, the real estate, and the dollar.
It's the Klaus Schwab moment, but what I find most interesting, and the banks, in particular, the banks, but what I find interesting about that and the banks, I don't know if I've mentioned this to you, I may have, but Look, the top two economic advisors to this administration, one is Jared Bernstein and his whole thesis.
He has a degree in music from a college in New York and a master's degree in social work.
He is the lead economic advisor to the Biden administration whose whole thesis is to lose the dollar's world reserve status.
That is the privilege we can no longer afford.
So you weaponize the dollar.
You tell Saudi Arabia, the linchpin of the hegemony, hey, we're going green.
We don't need you anymore.
But the number two, to your point, the number two is a modern monetary theorist, Lael Brainard.
She spent time at the Treasury.
She spent time at the Fed.
She ran Point on FedNow, which just came out.
Most people don't know what that is.
That is the Federal Reserve's version of Venmo and Zelle.
It will take the place of all checks within a year or less.
It's instant settlement backed by the Federal Reserve.
And she also is the one who worked with MIT in development of the central bank digital currency, which was also fast-tracked by Biden's executive order and also put into play By the Bank of International Settlements, who said every country has to have one by 2025.
So if you think about it, you weaponize the dollar, you tell Saudi Arabia, we don't need you anymore.
We keep interest rates high enough and allow the money markets to invest in the overnight repo market, but then raise rates even higher by the Treasury sucking all the money out of the repo market.
So there's no liquidity in the system.
The banks are being bled dry.
The dollar is being usurped.
You couldn't draw it up any better if you wanted to collapse the system.
So the point I'm getting at is, is this intended?
And you know when I started feeling this way, Mike, is when they said inflation was Putin's fault.
No, it's not.
It's the fact that in four years we printed more money than at any time in history, and inflation 100% of the time is a monetary event.
It's increasing the money supply.
They're looking for a villain.
This allows them to blow up the system, reset it, come in with the new CBDC, And point to a villain, they did it to us.
They did it to us, and people will believe it.
This, again, another critical point.
You're on fire today, Andy.
You're just nailing them out of the park here.
But this is critical.
Like, the only way they could cover up all the financial crimes that have been carried out by the Fed and the Treasury throughout many administrations, you know, from probably I mean, you can go back since World War II, frankly, but especially since 1971 when Nixon took us off the gold standard.
I mean, that's when things really got out of hand.
Endless money printing at that point.
So this has been a long building crime of mass theft from the American workers.
That's what this is, or the American savers, you could say also.
Workers and savers both.
And they need a scapegoat, like you said.
This is the crime of the century.
They're going to steal everybody's Money or value by collapsing the currency, resetting it into a system that they control, central bank digital currencies, and they need a villain.
And right now, guess what?
They have a whole new villain.
It's Hamas!
And then it's going to be Iran, and then it's going to be Russia with Iran.
I mean, it's always going to be Russia, we know.
They're always going to blame Russia, Russia, Russia.
But now they've got even more villains to blame the terrorists, right?
So you can see this coming a mile away.
I can too.
Our audience can.
But again, the typical American people and European people, just everyday people, have no idea that the value of what they have in the bank is about to go toward zero.
And the psychological—I mean, you want to talk about terrorism.
That is financial terrorism.
And it's being plotted by our own government and our own central bank against us.
Would you agree with that?
I do.
And then look what all the people have been doing.
Who owns all the bonds?
As Russia sells them, China sells them, Japan sells them, Saudi.
Who's buying all the bonds?
It's the public.
The US public is jumping headlong into the bond market as the rest of the world is selling it.
And when you talk about the unfunded liabilities of $130 trillion, who's it owed to?
Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, government, military, pensions, it's owed to us.
The majority of the debt is owed to us.
If we want to lose the world reserve currency, we're doing a damn good job at incentivizing it, but if they blow up the system, They blow up the system where stocks and bonds and real estate are all inversely correlated to a massive spike in interest rates.
The dollar collapses.
Everything blows up.
Have no fear.
Lael Brainard is here with her modern monetary theory and her central bank digital currency.
Sign on the dotted line and you'll be made whole.
Take the CBDC, just like they wanted us to take the Take it, and you will be made whole.
And that is the point, and the people will fall for it.
Most people, even those who said, I will never take it, if they are confronted with a moment where they've lost everything.
And think about it.
Now you even have the ability to maybe even attempt to unite the country under a common villain, a common theme.
We're going to start over.
We're going to reign things in.
We're going to be more of a domestic-based country.
Well, here we go with our new system.
But look, I think it's highly probable as far as I'm concerned because of the policies that continue to grow.
A practical question on that, however, let's suppose somebody has $100,000 in the bank.
The bank collapses, you know, the reset happens, and they're given $100,000 digital dollars in the CBDC. Then they go to the grocery store to try to spend those $100,000 digital dollars.
You can't wave a magic wand The government can't and make those dollars the same value as the dollars that people lost.
You're going to go to the grocery store with those digital dollars and that pound of hamburger, let's say, or that loaf of bread is no longer $5.
It's $50.
Because you can't change the laws of economics unless the government is going to come in with price controls.
You know what happens then.
Empty shelves.
Venezuela.
Oh, boy.
So people will very quickly realize they've been conned.
I mean, they're going to fall for it at first, but isn't it just right around the corner?
They're going to say, hey, wait a second.
I lost 90% of my purchasing power because you can't fix that gap.
You can't change the laws of economics.
What are your thoughts?
Well, you know, maybe I'm giving the West too much credit here, but, you know, Kristalina Georgieva, the head of the IMF, said any CBDC that's not pegged to something is just another fiat currency.
They also printed an article at the beginning of the year this year in the winter, and they said...
It was called gold as an international reserve comma a barbarous relic no more question mark.
They are acknowledging I think that gold's place as wealth, I think they're also acknowledging that a CBDC that's not pegged to something will have no credibility.
And maybe this is their one chance where they will take a fractionalized amount.
So let's say 20% of every new digital dollar is pegged to gold that is held on a distributed ledger for everyone to see.
You don't have to make it redeemable if you have transparency, auditing, and a distributed ledger.
Now, maybe I'm giving them far more.
Oh, yeah, I think you are.
It's the only way that it would work.
I mean, it's the only way it would work.
That's interesting, Andy.
No, you're right.
It is the only way it would work.
But number one, they're never going to go to a distributed ledger because they lose control.
They can't cheat the ledger.
So let me take the distributor.
Let's say a private permission-based blockchain system then.
So they would use it just to show immutability and veracity and allow people to see that.
And if you have it independently audited, I guess you have a shot at retaining credibility Short of that, I don't know how they would do it.
I think it would just end up collapsing the system.
You're right, that's another fiat currency.
Yeah, I think they won't run any kind of an honest accounting system, and I think ultimately nobody will trust them because people will have already been ripped off once and they're like, you know, fool me twice.
Shame on me, right?
But anyway, we only have a little over a minute left, so Andy, I want to give you a chance to plug your business again, milesfranklin.com, gold and silver, delivery, You know, in your hands.

But thank you for joining me today.
I'll be back at 6 p.m.
Eastern with Jeffrey Prather.
And we have other shows and guests coming up right here live throughout the day on Brighteon.tv.
So stay with us.
We'll be right back after this break.
Alright, I'm going to do something unusual for you today.
I've got here the ranger buckets from healthrangerstore.com that so many people have invested in as a food supply.
This is certified organic, laboratory verified, but I'm going to actually go through and open these and show you What's in them today and show you our dedication to the kind of packaging, the kind of secure packaging, and the quantity of what you get in here.
This is just one of the, these are almonds in here, one of the types of packaging that we have.
I want you to notice how secure it is.
You know, you can, no, it's okay, sit.
I don't want my dog to get alerted by that.
But you've got different nuts and seeds in the package, and then if you take off this lid, there we go, you've got these kinds of hard bricks vacuum packed with the aid of nitrogen in this very rigid, rugged, thick material that prevents oxygen from oxidizing these products.
So here we have black beans.
Here we have lima beans.
Here we have millet.
And rice, again, all certified organic, all laboratory verified.
We test them for heavy metals.
We test them for pesticides such as, or herbicides like glyphosate, flax seeds here.
We test them for microbiology to make sure that you're not getting E. coli, salmonella, yeast, or mold.
Here's red lentils, high protein.
Again, all certified organic.
And in this pail, it makes it virtually rodent-proof.
So more of the smaller packages here, these tend to be nuts and seeds, and some butter powder.
Now the ingredients vary based on what's actually available right now from the world supply of food.
So you need to go to our website, healthrangerstore.com, to see what's actually in the buckets that are available right now.
It can vary.
But here's certified organic popcorn.
Here's red beans.
Here's quinoa.
Here's some more small red beans, pinto beans, and oh, that might be palm sugar and cacao powder.
It just depends.
It varies based on what we have available, so you'll have to go there and check it.
But look, this is what you get in a two-bucket set.
It's a huge number of servings.
It can feed...
A lot of people for an extended period of time, the actual statistics are on the website.
If you want to know how many calories and how many servings, it's all right there at healthrangerstore.com.
But folks, this is built for long-term storage.
This is no joke.
Between the buckets that are very rugged and roadworthy, You can take these on the road.
They can handle a certain amount of abuse.
And the sealed packages that keep out oxygen and prevent oxidation, this is serious long-term preparedness.
And then these can be used in hundreds of different recipes.
And you can add things, like if you have availability of butter or even lard, if you're into animal products, you can add those other ingredients to various meals and soup mixes using these base ingredients.
And then you can get your nutrition that way and you can make it through an extended period of societal failures, food shortages, famine, or even food inflation.
All of these food items are going to go up in price as time goes on here because of the collapsing value of the dollar.
And what that means is it's never going to be as affordable as it is right now.
Food prices aren't going down.
They're only going up.
But this is a tremendous amount of food.
And it's...
When you cook it, of course, it expands because these are dried formats.
So even here, as much as this is with the stacks and the pouches and everything, it looks like so much more when you actually cook it.
So again, look at the website, healthrangerstore.com, search for Ranger Buckets, and if you don't need this much food or you just want one of these items, you can get what are called Mega Buckets or Mini Buckets that focus on just one or two materials.
Alright, so here's an example of a mega bucket right here.
This one contains only hard red wheat that is certified organic and lab tested as are all our products.
But you can get these individual buckets that are dedicated to one item if you wish, if you just want more of one certain thing.
And we have these number 10 cans here, by the way, of different products.
This is a certified organic palm sugar, a low glycemic sweetener.
And here's a number 10 can of just macadamia nuts.
And even though these have plastic lids, they're sealed steel cans.
So they're completely rodent proof with very long shelf life.
They're very rugged and they're also easy to handle because of their size.
And again, we have all kinds of different food items, whether it's nuts, seeds, grains, legumes, all kinds of things, including whey protein, powdered milk, things like that, available right now at healthrangerstore.com.
If you're concerned at all about the availability of the food supply, then you absolutely want to check this out, because what we have is unmatched anywhere in the world.
Nobody does as much laboratory testing for the cleanliness of their foods, As we do.
Nobody in the world.
And we do more testing than anybody.
We have our own ISO accredited laboratory that we operate that is audited.
It is inspected.
And our whole facility is, by the way, certified organic USDA audited and inspected annually, if not more often, including kosher certification for most of these items as well.
You can find all the details on our website, again, healthrangerstore.com.
When you're looking for backup food supplies, this is your answer right here.
We've got it.
