Welcome to today's interview on Brighteon.com.
I'm Mike Adams, the founder of Brighteon, and today we are joined by a very important guest, John Moore, known as The Liberty Man.
His website is thelibertyman.com, and he is one of the best analysts of geopolitical events that I've ever met.
And he formerly served as a homicide detective for many years, so he's used to investigating, following the trail of evidence, and arriving at conclusions that make a lot of sense.
And we're going to talk today about...
Of course, the situation in the Middle East and also Ukraine and Russia and the economic downfall of the West.
So all of that straight ahead right here on Brighteon.com.
Mr.
John Moore, welcome to the show today.
It's an honor, sir.
It's always an honor to be able to speak with you.
Welcome to the show.
Good to be here, Mike, as always.
And, yeah, since the last time we talked, the world has gone to hell in a handbasket, hasn't it?
Absolutely.
Well, but I would say that you called it.
You specifically warned about escalating events.
We don't always know how that's going to look, but here we are.
What do you make of the current situation?
Let's start with the Middle East.
There's been an over 30-day siege against Gaza.
And Israel believes they can eliminate Hamas and, I guess, take over the entire area.
They've got the U.S. backing them with naval forces, but the entire Arab world, plus the Persians and Iran, can't wait to take Israel out if they get a chance.
Where do you think this is headed?
Well, that part of the world is an ancient part of the world.
Obviously, most of our realisters are Christian.
Animosities go back many centuries, but within living memory, all those countries that we call the Middle East were one country, that country being the Ottoman Empire.
The goal of the president of Turkey is to reestablish the Ottoman Empire with, once again, Turkey, Constantinople, becoming the capital of the Ottoman Empire as it was for many, many centuries up until 1917.
The Arab world is ready to sacrifice all the people in Gaza to achieve their goal of eliminating Israel.
That's very clear.
None of these countries will accept refugees from Gaza.
They simply won't do it.
So, on one hand.
On the other, Israel is not a It's not what most Christians believe it to be.
There's two groups of Jews, what I call the real Jews, who are the Sephardic Jews, who have the bloodline of Moses and Abraham.
And then there's a make-believe Jews from southern Europe called the Kazarians, which are not of that bloodline.
They're king of that area, converted them to Judaism centuries ago for political reasons.
And the Kazarians are actually the ones in charge of Israel.
My Monday guest, Sam Andrews, who has many friends, active duty, U.S. Army Special Forces, U.S. Navy SEALs, his buddies that are Navy SEALs are telling him that we now have U.S. Navy SEALs on the ground in combat in Israel right now as we speak on the 9th day of November 2023.
In Israel or in Gaza?
Israel, Gaza.
I'm using them as synonymous.
So they're engaged in active combat right now.
Yeah, and I asked specifically, and I said, Sam, do you mean they're in an advisory role or training capacity?
He says, no, John.
They're in combat in Israel.
Now, I don't know what their mission statement is.
Sam doesn't know.
I hope it's to rescue American hostages.
I don't know that.
But that would be the best use of American SEALs in Israel right now.
Yes.
Yes, well, and it brings up the question of tunnel warfare, because, you know, it's, of course, known that Hamas has this extensive tunnel network, very deep underground.
But, you know, Israeli reservists in particular, I think there are 300,000 plus Israeli reservists that have been called up.
I'd like your assessment, but personally, I don't have much faith that they could be very effective in tunnel warfare or even urban warfare combat.
I mean, it seems like Israel in the past, they've been really great at wide open deserts with tanks and armor and long lines of visibility.
That's not what they're facing right now.
What's your take?
Well, experience with tunnels is something I don't have personally on one hand.
On the other, it's a very specialized area of combat, to say the least.
I don't know.
The main thing dealing with tunnels is having intelligence as to where they are and where all the entrances are.
If you know where the tunnels are and where all the entrances are, you don't necessarily have to go down into the tunnels.
You could flood them with water.
You could smoke them out.
You could do any number of things without actually gaining entrance to the tunnels.
So I don't know what the plan is for the Israeli military.
And I agree with you.
In the past, the Israeli military, their Air Force, they have an excellent Air Force with F-15s with the latest upgrades.
They have excellent missiles and artillery.
Their regular infantry is highly trained with great weapons.
But doing things in these tunnels is something that No normal human being would want to even go inside those tunnels with all the possibilities of booby traps and so forth that they could meet down there.
So I don't know what the plan is.
I hope it's an effective plan.
The Palestinians are prepared to sacrifice their own people, clearly.
They've built these tunnels underneath hospitals, mosques, and places that Typically would not be targets for a bombardment or shelling or anything of that nature.
And of course what's going on, we simply don't know.
IDF is releasing some information.
They're holding back what they need to to protect their forces.
But let's go back to the beginning.
It appears that the government of Israel made sure that the attack of the Palestinians was successful.
They took away the weapons from the nearby kibbutz.
They shut down necessary security forces that should have been in the area and weren't in the area.
A six to seven hour response time by the IDF is unheard of.
Right.
Unheard of.
And they're well known for being a rapid response force.
And that did not happen.
And Mossad, which is a small but excellent intelligence service, It goes without saying that they knew about the attack in advance.
And within Mossad, there's other things going on.
My friend Steve Ben-Noon, who I believe is going to be your guest soon, if he hasn't already.
Steve grew up Jewish, a Sephardic Jew.
He is a former member of the CIA, and he has friends that are actually in Mossad.
This is a side note, but it's an important side note.
You probably already know, Mike, that Israel has the highest percentage rate of vaccination from the COVID clot shots of any country on the planet, more than 99%.
Here's what you may not know, and Steve can give you more details when you finally get to interview them.
There's the Sephardic Jews, the real Jews, the bloodline of Moses and Abraham.
They were given the real Jews, the real COVID-19 clot shots that kill and injure people.
The make-believe Jews, the Khazarians, were not given the real.
They were given a saline solution.
Wow.
This is well known within Mossad.
So this is genocide against some of their own...
They have both groups within Mossad.
They have the real Jews and the make-believe Jews within Mossad.
And prior to this war going on with Gaza, there was a lot of animosity between two groups.
One group knowing they were killing the other, the other group knowing they were being killed by the other.
As I've been saying for more than a year, Mike, Israel, as we know it, will cease to exist in three to five years.
Now, they'll still be in Israel.
It won't be the Israel we know, because the plan is to kill off all the Sephardic Jews, the Jews who are of the bloodline of Moses and Abraham.
Now, the Kazarians, the make-believe Jews, as I call them, from Southern Europe, they're taking into their custody Yemeni's children.
Now these are Semite children, obviously, of the Arabic language, the Semite language.
And they're raising them as Jewish because they know that God needs help to fulfill Bible prophecy.
That's a joke, Mike.
But that's what they're doing.
They're raising the Yemeni's children as Jewish to bring the bloodline in line with the Bible and Bible prophecy.
But this is a really important point, though, what you bring up.
For example, Netanyahu has said that, I mean, he's cited scripture, and he's called the Palestinians the Amalek, and it's clear that he and others believe that they must eliminate all Palestinians, and they must destroy the Al-Aqsa Temple in order to have the rebuilding of the Temple, in order to...
I guess, summon Christ to come back as if Christ couldn't do it on his own?
Well, for them, it's Christ the first time.
For them, it would be Christ the first time.
For us, it would be Christ the second time.
Go ahead.
It's hard for Americans to comprehend the mindset of people in this ancient part of the world.
Most of these Palestinians and other people in the Middle East, no matter what the country, Jordan, Syria, Turkey, they can tell you who their grandfather was 12 generations ago.
Very few Americans can tell you who their great-great-grandfather was, let alone 12 generations ago.
And the hatreds go back their centuries.
When I was in college, Mike, I met a Palestinian young man.
He was the same age I was.
We're looking at about 22 years old or so.
And the hatred that he had towards all Jewish people was one of the most unusual things I've ever seen.
The hatred was dripping from his voice.
It was so sincere and so profound that he hated all Jewish people.
And that's pretty much the way all Palestinians feel about all Jewish people.
But the Israelis feel the same way about the Palestinians, right?
I was going to say, the hatred is mutual.
And it carries on.
From the time a young Palestinian or a young Jewish person is born, from the time they're being potty trained, they're trained to hate the opposite parties.
The Jews are trained to hate the Palestinians and the Jews.
Palestinians are trained to hate the Jews and not trust the Jews.
There's no, and Steve may be able to give you more insight into this, but there's almost no social interaction between the two groups.
It almost does not exist.
The two cultures are so entirely separate and kept that way.
If there was interaction, especially between youngsters, beginning at kindergarten age, Interaction where they played with each other, they went to school together, they got to know each other, go to each other's birthday parties.
It would be a whole different situation, but that's not allowed to happen.
It is not allowed to happen.
Well, right, but it reminds me, John, that even in the United States, of course, especially during the Trump years, the media pushed a race war narrative and really tried to spark a race war over George Floyd, for example, or during Obama, Trayvon Martin.
Anytime a young black man or an older black man was killed by police, they tried to spark a race war.
Now, it ultimately failed.
And now, you know, Black Lives Matter, many parts of that organization have been exposed to financial fraud, you know, fraudsters and taking corporate donations and buying mansions and so on.
And one of the co-founders of a significant BLM group just endorsed Donald Trump.
So, you know, that failed.
That kind of caught me off guard.
Right.
Well, we're not restricted to any topic.
Let's talk about George Floyd a little bit.
Sure.
At the local American Legion, we had movie night every Friday night for eight years.
So I'm sitting next to my pastor at my church.
It's movie night.
The George Floyd matter just happened a few days before.
Everybody on the planet had seen this video of this police officer's knee on the neck of George Floyd.
I said to my pastor, if I can paraphrase what I said, I said, Pastor, they finally have a real matter that they can get behind.
Now, what I didn't know, and nobody knew, for at least three months or more, after the cities had burned, an unknown number of people killed in these various riots around the country, then they released the other video.
The video where George Floyd is handcuffed, sitting in the back of the police cruiser, saying, I can't breathe, I can't breathe.
They withheld that until the city's burned and people died.
Yes.
Because if they had released it, everybody would have known and it would have been revealed that one of the well-known symptoms of poisoning from the drug he took is not being able to breathe.
And so they took him out of the back.
And I don't know that this has ever revealed any confidential interrogations of these officers.
But here's what I believe happened.
The officers probably thought that George Floyd was claustrophobic.
He's sitting in the back of the police car saying, I can't breathe, I can't breathe.
That to me sounds like somebody's claustrophobic.
Not knowing he was in the process of dying, he had enough drugs in his system to kill two and a half healthy adult males.
So they thought, well, let's do the right thing.
This guy's claustrophobic.
Let's put him on the ground outside the cruiser until the ambulance gets here, which is what they did.
Now, I had a video.
I don't believe it's on my website anymore.
A martial arts, police martial arts instructor, he's laying on the ground.
He has an adult male about the size of the officer in question here, kneeling with his full body weight.
Knee on the neck of this instructor on the ground.
The instructor is talking in a normal speaking voice.
He's not choking to death.
And the officer on top of him, the training officer on top of him, has both hands not touching anything and hardly any weight on the other foot.
Clearly all the weight is on the officer's neck that's on the ground.
So the whole George Floyd thing was a sham.
George Floyd killed himself with a drug overdose.
This officer did not.
He's become a sacrificial lamb in the whole deal.
We had tens of millions of dollars of property damage.
I don't know how many people died in these various riots.
People running these flim-flam things such as Black Lives Matter, getting incredibly wealthy overnight and buying big mansions, as you mentioned.
And the surprise, surprise, one of them supporting Donald Trump for president.
And there's spillover that carries forward to this day, which translates into police department policies changing, police departments being defunded, police departments becoming reduced in numbers of officers on the streets.
All is a direct consequence of the George Floyd matter.
The whole thing was a tragedy.
The whole thing was a staged matter in terms of withholding that second video.
If that second video had been released and who held it, whoever held it and didn't allow it to be released, they're directly responsible for all those property being damaged and lives being lost.
Mike, in my opinion, what do you think?
Well, clearly.
I mean, it's all engineered.
It's just like this transgender shooter, that manifesto was held by police and held by the FBI. It only, you know, three pages recently leaked out.
Well, it didn't fit the narrative.
Exactly.
So it's selective release of things or holding on to things in order to manage the psychological belief systems of the American people.
Absolutely.
But I think also the same thing is going on in the Middle East as well.
And it's very clear.
A lot of war is a psychological operation.
Well, of course it is.
Well, my entree into young adulthood was to be an intelligence analyst in psychological operations in Vietnam.
So I have first-hand experience with this professionally, in which what we did was manipulate people's thoughts, manipulate people's beliefs, manipulate their wants and needs.
That's what psychological operations does.
They did it half a century ago.
They still do it.
And what I found out since is that young men and women Take on the job that I took on as an entree into advertising and marketing in the private sector.
Oh, yeah.
I've met these young men and young women in their early to mid-20s.
They want to have a career in American advertising, American marketing, and they start out in psychological operations as an intelligence analyst or one of the other jobs that we have, which are identical to jobs in the private sector in advertising and marketing, Mike.
Wow.
That's astonishing.
And yeah, I mean, we see elements of psychological operations, of course, in the Middle East, as I mentioned, but I want to go to that for a second because there has been some breaking news today.
Number one, within the U.S. State Department, There's a civil war, in essence, among the leftists in the State Department who tend to side with Palestine.
They tend to be anti-Israel.
And they are seeing their administration, the Biden administration and Antony Blinken going along with Israel on everything.
So we've seen at least one one significant person resign and we're seeing a lot of pushback internally.
And then secondly, there was announced today that daily there will be a four hour ceasefire, which the U.S. won't even use the term ceasefire.
They're calling it a humanitarian pause.
So each 24 hours, there will be four hours without bombs, which still sounds like hell to me.
But four hours without bombs, that's not enough time to get aid trucks in and unload them and get them back out.
So you're still screwed if you're an aid convoy.
You can't get in and out in four hours.
But what do you make of the two things I mentioned, the civil war inside the State Department or inside the Biden administration, and then the four-hour ceasefire?
I look at the four-hour pause as an attempt to appease both sides.
The one side that's pro-Palestinian wants a ceasefire, a complete cessation of possibilities.
The pro-Israeli side wants no cessation or no pause at all.
So the four hours, and chances are there was...
Either a focus group to decide what would appease or appeal to both sides, or direct contact with the Hamas leadership and Israeli leadership to see what would be an acceptable agreement between the two sides.
Four hours is not much.
You're right.
Obviously, the combatants on both sides will use that four hours.
Israeli military and the Palestinian terrorists.
We'll use that four hours to move ammunition, move weapons, move people without fear of being bombed.
And whatever humanitarian aid gets in there, I say more power to them.
They're victims in all modern wars, and most wars before that are the innocent civilians.
And my heart goes out to innocent civilians, no matter what the war is, no matter where it is.
It's the innocent civilians who always pay the price.
So true.
I started to say economists.
The terrorists, the Palestinian terrorists know this, and they don't care.
They're perfectly willing to use innocent women and children and older men, elderly men, as human shields to achieve their goals.
Yes, yes, but...
It is.
Go ahead.
And perhaps a little bit of pushback that Israel is also willing to kill innocent civilians, obviously, and they have killed over 10,000 Palestinians at this point.
Well, there's an unfortunate, you know, look at Dresden, Germany, which was a center of education and music and culture and art.
It was not a military target at all, not even a little bit.
We bombed the hell out of it and killed thousands of men and women and children.
That was us, the good guys, the allies.
Yes, but that act today under the Geneva Convention would be considered a war crime.
The Geneva Convention was in effect since about 1900.
Mike?
It's been modified.
I mean, there was a lot of response after Dresden.
I don't know the nuances of what the current content of the GMB convention is.
I do know that, and I'm not defending killing innocent men, women, and children.
I'm just stating the obvious that that's part of all wars all the time is innocent men, women, and children die.
Unfortunately, that's always a part of all wars.
I know Americans, officers and leadership, they go out of their way to avoid these kind of casualties, but knowing full well they're going to happen.
Well, yeah, I agree with what you just said.
I think the American military men and women, they do go out of their way to avoid civilian casualties.
And you could even argue that Russia went out of its way to avoid civilian casualties in its battle with Ukraine.
Israel...
He's making no effort to avoid civilian casualties.
I mean, when you're bombing entire universities and hospitals and refugee camps, you're trying to cause civilian casualties.
I mean, there is a qualitative difference in Israel's response.
See, I think it's designed to provoke the Arab world into a reaction.
That's my theory.
Because this is not normal Western...
These are not NATO type of engagements here.
This is something different.
NATO wouldn't act this way.
Modern German army wouldn't act this way.
In my understanding, the British army wouldn't act this way.
Why is Israel doing it?
Well, I can't answer why that is.
It's a different culture, a different people, a different mindset.
I know it's routine for school teachers, elementary school teachers that take their Israeli children on a field trip to have an M1 carbine slung across their back.
It's a whole different way of living.
It's a whole different mindset.
And I'm not going to be an apologist for the Israeli policies.
I'm going to say that I'm not there.
I don't live under those conditions.
And it's...
Unless you're, what's the old Indian saying?
You need to walk a mile in my moccasins first.
I haven't walked a mile in their moccasins.
I know it's different.
It's a different mindset.
It's a different part of the world.
It's hard for Americans, at least myself, to really comprehend the age of that part of the world.
I haven't been to the Middle East, but I've been to Prague, Czech Republic.
I had a speaking engagement there.
I was at Prague Castle, which is still in daily use as part of the federal government, and I didn't go inside, but I walked past a tavern, Mike, that's been serving alcohol to the public since before Christopher Columbus sailed the ocean blue in 1492.
I mean, around my neighborhood, it was something to 100 years old.
It's really old, but...
It's hard to comprehend for the Western mind, the American mind, buildings and structures that are more than a thousand, two thousand years old of that nature.
And the whole culture is so foreign and so unfamiliar with Americans.
I don't want to put myself in a place of judging them because I don't live there.
I don't live under those circumstances.
Having rockets and mortars thrown at you from those various countries, Jordan and so forth, is nothing new, especially Lebanon.
There's always here and there, the occasional mortar, the occasional rocket that gets shot into Israel from these various Arabian strongposts around the country there.
So I think for myself, I'm going to make note of what the Israelis are doing, Make note that in my opinion, it's not the right thing to do.
And also withhold judgment because I'm not there.
I'm not Israeli.
I don't have to worry if my five-year-old child going to kindergarten in Israel is going to come home safe and sound because there might be a mortar attack or a rocket attack at any given any time.
I don't believe there's any place in the entire country of Israel that's safe from rockets and mortars and now they're using drones, of course.
I don't believe that safe place exists, Mike, do you?
Well, no, but I think that's what happens when you come in in 1948 and Israel displaced the Palestinians who were there.
First.
You know?
I mean, you're going to set off warfare.
Of course you are.
And then, what Israel's doing now, having dropped 25,000 tons of bombs on Gaza, the third most densely populated area in the world, almost half children, to drop more bombs than the entire detonation...
I mean, this is larger than Hiroshima, to drop that number of bombs on residential areas, knowing that Hamas is actually underground.
Hamas is in the tunnels, and you're bombing the apartment buildings and hospitals on the surface.
You know, come on.
Right.
Well, it's, you know...
Most Americans, myself included, are against needless civilian casualties, what we might call collateral damage.
We're against it.
We don't support it.
All we can do as Americans is observe and make comments.
That's about all we can do.
Now, I don't believe there's been any aid authorized by Congress yet.
There's talk of dollar amounts being spent to help Israel.
I don't know if it's going to pass Congress or not because we have, within Congress, just like the State Department, we have both pro- and anti-Israeli groups.
That's true.
Pro-Hamas, anti-Hamas groups in the U.S. Congress and the Senate both.
Yes.
And I know some of the conservative congressmen are trying to tie something like maybe building a border wall in exchange for sending aid to Israel.
I don't know what's going to be successful.
That would be an interesting negotiation.
Well, it would be.
As I've said, Congress is Israel first, Ukraine second, and America last.
That's what we've been treated to.
Well, there is some truth to that.
Unfortunately, another side effect of not helping We're putting Israel aside for a moment.
Another side effect of helping Ukraine is that we're expending our warehouses full of artillery shells, ammunition, other stocks of military equipment that we should have in reserve to fight a war if we need to fight a war.
Instead, they're going to Ukraine.
And, of course, Ukraine is well-known to be one of the most corrupt governments on the planet.
Yes.
There's already been weapons that were shipped to Ukraine to help Ukrainians being recovered from the hands of Palestinian terrorists.
There's been attempts to get an accounting, a detailed accounting, of just where these weapons and ammunition went in Ukraine.
That's been resisted.
It's being resisted for a reason, because they can't give an accountant without exposing themselves.
A quick segue here, Mike, a friend of mine, he's a computer geek, a former Marine.
He had a job with the Pentagon for a while.
That job ended when he exposed corruption and money being mishandled.
He thought that was his job to find it.
But when he did find it and did expose the money being spent improperly, he got fired.
Well, of course, because Joe Biden was bragging about that, right?
Even before the rigged election, Biden was bragging that he got the Burisma investigation team fired.
But I'm glad you mentioned Ukraine.
I want to ask you about this.
How do you think that this situation ends?
I mean, let me lay this out.
It's clear that Zelensky's desperate.
It's clear that Zelensky's days are numbered.
Ukraine has run out of men.
I mean, hundreds of thousands of casualties.
Their forces are decimated.
They've run out of munitions for the most part.
They've run out of money now.
Then there's not much willingness for the U.S. to continue to fund them, nor from other Western European countries as well.
And Russia clearly has the upper hand.
Decisively.
Ukraine's counter-offensive did not work.
Go ahead.
Early in 2015, I was asked to put together a team to go to Ukraine, A team of reformer Special Forces troops, which I know a lot of these guys, and I'm one myself, to go to Ukraine and train Ukrainian Special Forces to be compliant with NATO Special Forces in command and control communications, tactics and equipment, and so forth.
And I had the team all put together.
We were ready to go.
And then we were told the operation was not going to happen.
We were told early on that it was being funded by a Ukrainian oligarch.
After it was all over and we called it a day, we found out it was actually a CIA operation, not a Ukrainian oligarch.
So that was in 2015.
Once again, the parties being hurt in Ukraine are the innocent civilians.
Ukraine is drafting young men, giving them minimal training, putting them in a uniform, putting them on a battlefield where they're being killed and injured.
The Russians, of course, have a massive army.
Russia has 12 time zones.
We have four time zones in the continental United States.
It's hard to imagine a landmass, one country, that has 12 time zones.
It's the only country on the planet that has that many time zones.
And they have massive numbers of men in their military, massive stockpiles of ammunition, tanks, artillery, everything they need to fight a major war.
And they're not depleting their war sucks like the United States is and various NATO countries.
There's a thought, and you may or may not have interviewed my friend Jeff Nyquist, but Jeff's authored six books on this topic.
He sat across the interview table from high-level KGB defectors, and his belief and my belief is that part of what Russia is doing is to deplete The NATO nations of their stocks to fight a war.
And they've done that successfully.
Precisely.
Now, there's a big difference between the United States and Russia when it comes to manufacturing capacity.
I'm going to say, Mike, what's the nearest city to you in Texas?
Well, let's say Austin.
Austin.
I said, Mike, let's make a lunch appointment tomorrow and let's visit a Russian car dealership in Austin.
Yeah, there are none.
There are none.
The country that has equivalent population in the United States, about 250 million people, 300 million thereabouts, Nobody buys a Russian car.
What person in the right mind would do that?
Let's go buy a pair of Russian boots.
What do they sell for export except vodka and petroleum products?
But Russian artillery is pretty badass.
Going to Afghanistan for a moment, within 24 hours of the U.S. leaving the airport in Kabul, The international arms dealers were landing in Kabul and booking rooms in the nicest hotels in Kabul.
The international arms trade, the most important word is international.
That's exactly what it is.
Russia doesn't make money by selling automobiles.
They make money by selling tanks and trucks and artillery to governments all over the planet.
That's what their manufacturing capacity is dedicated to and always has been.
And they're good at it.
And they're drones.
They're Lancet drones.
They're anti-air defense systems.
They're hypersonic missiles.
I mean, they are no joke.
Right.
Well, they have missiles that can go five times the speed of sound.
Unless we have some space-based weapon that's not publicly known, we don't have any way to counter that.
They have torpedoes that go 100 miles an hour.
We don't have a countermeasure I'm aware of that can stop these.
So many of our anti-missile platforms have really never been tested in a full-blown war.
They've been tested in test exercises, but never in a full-blown combat environment.
So Russia and China have a plan.
The plan is to take over the world, quite frankly.
China knows, and we talk about racism.
Mike, you don't know what racism is until you've been around the Han Chinese.
There's about 20 plus ethnic groups in China.
The Han run the country.
And the Han Chinese, they know they're most handsome, the most attractive, the most intelligent, the best people on the planet.
And don't try to tell them otherwise.
So they know that the 21st century is their century.
The top Chinese defense minister 20 years ago gave a speech outlining his plan to colonize the lower 48.
It will become new China and there will be no Americans present.
That's the plan.
And they don't plan on incorporating Chinese in this country.
They figure that Chinese living in the United States have been compromised and can't be salvaged to conform with the Chinese way of thinking.
Right.
They plan genocide in the continental United States.
It's very clear from speeches of some of the military leaders.
And, you know, I have other sources that have told me that U.S. National Guard bases across the United States are nearly depleted of not just ammunition, like 155 artillery rounds, but the actual artillery pieces, the big guns.
Well, they're used up and wore out.
We've been in continuous war for more than 20 years.
Yeah, you're right.
But I mean, also they've been just shipped.
They take, you know, the supply that's supposed to defend America and they just ship it to Ukraine.
And never comes back.
Exactly.
Right, right.
Well, even before Ukraine came up, our National Guard was used up and wore out.
And young men and women would, for decades before these wars, would join the National Guard to get the training, get college benefits and so forth.
But it became very clear about 22, 23 years ago that joining the National Guard was the equivalent of joining the active duty army.
Because they've been using up these National Guard outfits in Iraq and Afghanistan.
And yes, they are in fact used up and wore out.
And the equipment's gone.
And it is not being replaced.
We don't have the manufacturing capacity to quickly replace what's been shipped overseas.
So then to your point in bringing in China, what you're saying is that through these maneuvers involving Ukraine and Russia and so on, the U.S. is more vulnerable now than ever.
For a land, I mean, an invasion, a border invasion or an internal activation of sabotage or what have you?
Mike, you and I are part of what's called the alternative media on one hand.
On the other, President Donald J. Trump last night in Hialeah, Florida, mentioned World War III being a possibility several times.
This is not some wild conspiracy theory.
When you have a former president openly talking about the possibility of World War III, I think it's time to wake up and smell the coffee.
It's one thing for the alternative to me to say that people like myself and you and Steve Quayle and others, Doug Hagman, but when a former president says it, yes, it's time to wake up and smell the coffee.
Now, nothing I can do, nothing you can do, most of our listeners that are not in high level of the Pentagon, I know there's a few, can't do anything to stop it.
But we can take personal measures to ensure the safety and security of our own families.
Having a secure place away from a major city.
Having what I call a hobby farm where you grow your own food.
You have a proprietary source of water.
You have trusted neighbors who ideally would be conservative Christian patriots that will look out for each other during a crisis.
That's where I live.
And many parts of the United States are the same way.
You're in a real good area.
I think where you live is one of the best choices in the country.
I agree.
The Arkansas, Missouri, Ozarks.
I know moving to a new location is not easy.
It's expensive.
It's time-consuming.
It's disrupting to your whole life.
Everything you know changes on one hand.
On the other, it's a smart thing to do.
We have, in my neighborhood, we have people coming here from California, from the East Coast, changing their life, turning their life upside down to be in a safe area for themselves, their children, their grandchildren.
This chapel is a safe haven for the family to escape to that remain on the East Coast or West Coast, wherever they might be.
And that's the smart thing to do, no matter who you are, is to bite the bullet, set up a safe haven some distance from a major city where you can grow your own food, have trusted, conservative Christian neighbors, Even if we don't have World War III, it's still a lot better lifestyle in my opinion, Mike.
Well, we still have the issue of the debt collapse, and we only have a few minutes left.
I want to get your response on this.
According to a calculation published by Zero Hedge, the United States government is now spending $1 trillion a year just in paying the interest on the debt.
And that interest payment is of course increasing constantly because of higher interest rates and so on.
Also the difficulty of selling off U.S. debt because other countries don't want to buy it as much and that means you have to pay a higher interest rate obviously.
So at a trillion dollars a year and plus all the money printing that's going on, it was also calculated in that same story that In one year, our debt will reach $41 trillion.
It's currently $33 trillion.
In one more year, it'll be $41 trillion.
And then likely in another year after that, if we last that long, it's going to be $50 trillion and so on.
You know, obviously this ends at some point.
How do you think it ends?
Any insight?
Well, there's a free download of my paper I wrote a number of 10 years ago titled No Need for Panic.
And there I make a statement that it's well known among people who are doing this, the consequences of spending the national fortune like a drunk sailor.
And the consequences have been known for 5,000 years at least, on one hand.
If you know and you believe it no longer matters, why not go ahead and do that spending?
So they know what the concept is going to be.
They know it doesn't matter because what's set in place, there's only two ways to settle what's being done with this outrageous spending.
One is to dramatically increase taxes, which they can't do that enough without destroying the economy.
The other is to Walk away from the debt, just like declaring bankruptcy, which means nobody's going to buy your U.S. Treasury notes anymore if you do that.
Both have serious consequences that are very bad.
So they're continuing the Ponzi scheme of spending more money, making it look like everything's normal, while at the same time, China is unloading U.S. Treasury bonds.
Other countries are selling off their Treasury bonds.
We will be at a point not too distant future where, of course, we already got the Fed buying back treasury bonds, by the way.
When you buy your own debt, I mean, that's a sure sign things are screwed up.
But we'll be at a point where the only buyer is going to be the Federal Reserve for our own debt.
Once we reach that point, which is probably not too far off, it's game over.
It's obviously gain over.
Now we have some states that are instituting their own currency backed by gold.
That's a smart thing.
I think we may see several more states do that.
These governors, these states, and these legislators, they're not stupid.
They know history.
They know what's coming.
And they're doing the best they can.
I would love to see Texas have a gold-backed currency.
Yeah, me too.
That would be wonderful.
And if you live in a state where that's not taking place, maybe you can get politically active and encourage your state legislature to have a gold-backed currency for your state.
Every state that does that would be helpful for the survival of the rest, don't you think?
I completely agree.
And so, John, this has been a fascinating discussion.
We're out of time here.
I want you to give out your broadcast information and also remind viewers, thelibertyman.com is your website.

And just give a link to thelibertyman.com.
Thank you for joining me today, and I pray for us all right now.
We are headed into the most difficult times that any of us have ever lived through, that's for sure.
Thank you for watching today.
Mike Adams here of brighteon.com.
Take care.
All right, 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 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.
We've been making this for years.
We ship ourselves out of our own warehouse, our own fulfillment center in Central Texas, and we're ready to deliver these products to you right now so that you can get prepared.
