Transcription by CastingWords I'm Alex Jones, and this is yet another original edition of InfoWars Nightly News.
Straight ahead.
Tonight, unconstitutional wars, Obamacare, the National Defense Authorization Act.
It's official.
The presidency is now a dictatorship.
Then, the founder of We Are Changed, Luke Radowski, confronts Rand Paul about Bilderberg.
Plus, the Obama war machine announces the invasion of Syria.
And James Wesley Rawls joins Alex to discuss the impending economic collapse.
That's up next on the InfoWars Nightly News.
First off tonight, it's official.
The presidency is now a dictatorship.
And Obama can come or go, or even resign, which would be nice.
But they replaced him with Mitt Romney, which wouldn't be nice.
So it's a Hobson's choice.
Catch-22, as they say.
Damned if you do, damned if you don't.
No way out.
Rockin' a hard place.
Out of the fire into...
The oven.
A few more cliches.
What do we do?
We get rid of the New World Order, the Globalist, the private Federal Reserve that runs these puppets.
But he's come out and said he will legalize any of the illegal aliens he wants anytime in a jobs program.
But citizens can go straight to Hades.
But he also launches wars without Congressional approval.
And saying the UN is the boss.
He shuts down power plants that aren't owned by his buddies.
He ships guns into Mexico and blames it on his enemies and says they're allowed to engage in perjury.
He gives waivers to his buddies on the health care plan.
Thousands of big companies.
So there it is, it's official.
The presidency, now a dictatorship.
We've got to admit that this country is in trouble to ever be able to start reversing what's happened in this nation.
All right, shifting gears out of that, we now move to Obama.
War machine announces invasion of Syria.
And I see these comments at Infowars.com like, Alex, where's the invasion?
You said it was happening.
Well, I mean, I know they called the bombing of Libya peace bombs and put Al-Qaeda in there, and I know they say Al-Qaeda's good, and I know I'm bad because I don't like them, but it's on record they've got Al-Qaeda blowing up military and police stations.
I'm not saying Assad's some great guy, but compared to Al-Qaeda, he's a good guy.
We're trying to overthrow the country and now they're all over the news saying invade, bomb, boots on the ground.
Every time I walk by a television it's on the news.
CNN, MSNBC, Fox, same message.
Says the U.S.
military has completed its own planning for how American troops would conduct a variety of operations against Syria.
But they'll just say it's not war.
And then they say they're going to put Al-Qaeda in charge to kill the Jews and expel the Christians.
So, it is certainly in your face.
And I'm unpatriotic because I don't support Al-CIA.
Duh!
Al-Qaeda's CIA.
Duh!
Al-CIA.
Duh!
I mean, it's just... Duh!
Duh!
We've got a studio audience out there tonight.
Hello, children.
Hello, yes.
Hey!
Obama cares about everybody, folks.
He's a good guy.
By the way, Axelrod has come out in a video interview that we have linked at InfoWars.com, and he says that they will restrict free speech in their next administration, but Mitt Romney's bought and paid for it with the same folks.
Maybe he'll try.
But we've got, well, Mitch McConnell.
Coming out and saying that America was built on free speech, the most important part of the Bill of Rights, and so we need to define speech and defend speech we don't like.
And they went on to break all of that down.
Kind of like the Republicans shut down the Dixie Chicks and Rage Against the Machine when they had anti-war music or made anti-war statements in 2003.
You Republicans are just as bad as Obama.
Again, yeah, I don't like Obama, but he's not the evil dog.
See, Obama is like a turd from a dog.
So is Mitch McConnell.
So is Mitt Romney.
So, I don't want to sit here and discuss the droppings all day and how much I hate them.
I don't like dog droppings.
You ever get up and you got dog step in it?
It's like, aw, man, I would have let you out if you wouldn't have done that.
Come on.
I'm cool.
So I'm not mad at a teleprompter reading dog droppings.
Whether it's Mitt Romney or Barack Obama.
These guys are all circling the drain.
I want to go after the actual dog.
I can use more scatological jokes if you'd like.
I mean, it's only because it's accurate.
I've got a repertoire of...
Lexicons dealing with semantical expressions and Shakespearean colloquialisms.
But I think it's more important to really cut down to what we're talking about.
Obama is a dropping.
So are the others.
As long as they're puppets.
That's why it's sad to see Rand Paul moving from being a maverick statesman and saying compromise with droppings.
I mean, you know, and we got some video of some confrontations of that coming up.
But we can laugh all day.
These guys are waging war against us.
They mean business.
And it is serious, serious, serious tyranny.
Another article with Lord Obama.
Obama makes election year change in deportation policy.
I already mentioned the whole dictatorial thing, but there's the Associated Press, where he will decide if you can stay here.
Continuing, Obama trade document leaked, revealing new corporate powers and broken campaign promises.
And yeah, U.S.
companies domestically have basically no way to operate.
If you're a foreign globalist in China or India or Mexico, you're above the law and can't operate, so that'll cause all the jobs to leave.
The leaked document has been posted on the website of Citizens Trade Campaign, a long-time critic of the administration's trade objectives.
And of course, Obama's response is, arrest whoever leaked this.
They don't ever deny it, they just say, arrest everyone who's not a terrorist like they are.
Continuing, U.S.
to landlord, shut down pot shops or lose your property.
Doesn't matter if California says you can have medical dispensaries of marijuana.
Doesn't matter if marijuana is an important part of our economy.
Doesn't matter if it's less dangerous than alcohol.
Doesn't matter.
They're saying, no judge, no jury, federal government, not even the U.S.
This headline's wrong out of Huffington Post business.
But the bankers that hijacked our country are.
We're going to take your business if you let somebody sell marijuana out of it.
Kind of like in Seattle where the cops have taken more than half the bars and end up owning them themselves because they sell drugs to themselves in the bathrooms.
Decriminalize now.
Take the police state's favorite tool away.
And I don't smoke, Mary Jane.
And I say decriminalize for those of you that say we're a bunch of weedheads.
Me, I like antioxidant grape juice myself.
All right, let's continue on with the other articles here.
Police.
Man tries to board plane with explosive.
Probably somebody caught one of their operatives doing a drill because he's given a misdemeanor for trying to take the explosives on the aircraft.
It says, we confirm he didn't have any intent to use them on the plane.
Well, that's fine.
Said Lieutenant Nathan Garbay of Redmond Police.
As far as we're knowing, he's knowingly knew he had them and forgot them.
That has yet to be confirmed.
So, I guess everything is fine.
Continuing here, foreign holdings of U.S.
debt hit record high.
That's how the banksters won us.
And again, our country wouldn't even be in debt.
90 plus percent of what we pay is derivatives to keep the banks propped up.
The $15 trillion that we owe to China and the private Federal Reserve, that's just maneuvering us into bankruptcy.
They've signed us on to 600 plus trillion of the 1.5 quadrillion in garbage that Goldman Sachs and J.P.
Morgan made.
We can pay off the 14, 15 trillion any time.
But it's all about China and everybody putting us down and teaching us that we're garbage.
Foreign demand for U.S.
Treasury securities rose a record high in April.
China, the largest buyer of Treasury debt, increased its holdings slightly after trimming them for two straight months because the globalists are busy imploding Europe.
So China's moving out of that.
But Europe falls.
We go up, but then fall.
So it's like two guys jumping out of an airplane, and one guy's falling further without a parachute, and the other guy's above him going, hey, I'm not hitting the ground as early as you are.
They're like, ah, you're going to splat!
And the guy's like, well, you're 20 feet above me.
Doesn't matter, I'm trendy.
I get to watch you splat.
Like one split second, you hear the head bust like a melon.
Boom!
It's like, Ack!
But it's okay, you're trending, and that's all that matters.
Okay, this is teleprompter-free news, ladies and gentlemen, and never forget it.
We take you now to Clandethu.
No, this actually isn't Starship Troopers.
We're not having Tarpley the Brain Bug on right now.
Let's go ahead and go to Dr. Adam Spartacus, his codename Weishaupt, founder of the Illuminati.
Of all the means I know to lead men, the most effectual is a concealed mystery.
The anchoring of the mind is irresistible.
Oh, come into our secret society.
Oh, give us money and dues.
Oh, it's too powerful for you to understand.
And really all you're being done is ripped off.
That's why they get all the elites into perverted and weird stuff where normal people never get sick of the same thing.
I never get sick of...
My beautiful, voluptuous wife.
I never get sick of cheese enchiladas.
I never get sick of swimming in a nice big lake or water skiing.
I never get sick of my wonderful children playing in the yard.
I never get sick of normal stuff.
It's what Madison Avenue wants to make you feel inadequate to sell you cultural death so you'll buy into all their poisons.
Take Prozac, drink sodium fluoride.
Hey, China says it's good to have mercury in your child's formula.
But God forbid we don't lock up all the people that smoke marijuana.
All right, we take you now to two different clips of Luke Radowsky and others confronting Rand Paul.
He used to talk to, in fact the first clip we should play is a year ago.
He talks to Rand Paul and he talks about the Federal Reserve, the New World Order, the Bilderberg Group, and how I woke Senator Paul up to the Bilderberg Group.
Senator Paul says that.
And then we've got clips coming up after that, excerpts of just yesterday with Luke and others talking to him about the Bilderberg Group, and he will not discuss it with them.
So we're really seeing Rand going establishment.
It's very, very sad.
After these clips, the old clip and the new clip, we'll go to break and come back with our guest on the survival of the republic and how to prepare yourself and your family.
Stay with us.
We actually, our organization confronted Ben Bernanke on his ties with the Bilderberg Group as well.
Do you know anything about the Bilderberg Group?
Only what I've learned from Alex Jones.
Do you know, for the people who don't know what's going on, can you tell people who are the Bilderberg Group?
If you feel comfortable doing so.
Yeah, well I'm not probably the world's expert on it, but I think it's people who get together, who are very wealthy people, who I think manipulate and use government to their own personal advantage.
And I think that's the biggest thing that would help us combat this, is that they want to make it out like they're just to help humanity, and world government will be good for humanity.
But guess what?
World government's good for their pocketbook.
They're very wealthy and they use government to make more money for themselves.
And that's where you expose them.
And I think ultimately, people are talking about that with the Federal Reserve.
Expose the people through an audit, maybe like Goldman Sachs and different banks that are making a lot of money off the U.S.
taxpayer through these special deals they're getting with the Federal Reserve.
Hey Senator Paul, my name is Luke of We Are Change.
We had an interesting conversation before about the Bilderberg Group and knowing what you know, how can you support Mitt Romney when The Guardian reported he was at the Bilderberg meeting?
We're having a private conversation right now.
You can make an appointment to stop by.
I know you, it's a comfortable question, I know you know a lot about the Bilderberg Group, and we just want to know, why would you endorse, I know you're playing politics, but is politics really that dirty?
That... Um, Jeff, we're waiting on your back from Jessica right now, do you want to call her and see?
Ran, the Bilderberg group is a very serious group.
A lot of people have a lot of questions about your endorsement of Romney and I think the Bilderberg one is very pointy and also Goldman Sachs, when I interviewed you, you called for an audit.
Did you find out that Romney was able to get back into the department?
Hey Rand, Abby Martin from Media Roots.
I just wanted to ask you one quick question.
You know, your endorsement for Mitt Romney.
People have a lot of questions about it.
I just wanted to see your opinion on it.
What do you think about all of Ron Paul's followers and just your father's movement catering to the establishment that's shut you guys out for so long?
Are you concerned with what this is going to do for the liberty movement as a whole, sir?
Sir, Romney endorses all of the policies that you've been voting against for so long.
NDAA.
Drones.
He wants to expand the military to twice its size.
Do you have any comment on that, sir?
Your endorsement to him just blanketly says that all those policies should be enacted.
Okay.
Okay.
planetinfowars.com You patriots sure are talking.
Have you ever given it a second thought when an employee asks to see your receipt as you leave a store?
No?
Well, welcome to what we call prison training.
Do what you're told, don't think twice.
Semantics aside, PlanetInfoWars user Sanchez explains exactly why showing your receipt is a bad idea in his appropriately titled article, Why You Should Never Show Your Receipt Again.
He confronts us with the idea that if you cannot stand up to the little old lady demanding to see your receipt at Walmart, what do you expect to do when the military shows up on your door making demands of you?
It's a good reminder that if you forget to claim your rights, you will lose them.

And we are back, ladies and gentlemen, to the interview portion of InfoWars Nightly News.
Our next guest is one of the leading survivalist experts in the United States, one of the most read as well.
Survivalblog.com is his website.
James Wesley Rawls.
He's been an enthusiastic survivalist since his teenage years.
He's a survivalist author and lecturer and the editor, again, of survivalblog.com.
He has a Bachelor of Arts degree from San Jose State University with a minor degree in military science, history, and military history.
And he's a former U.S.
Army intelligence officer who held top-secret security clearances with special background in investigation and access to sensitive compartmented information.
And I'll just leave it at that.
And again, he's also an expert In the Nuclear Chemical Biological Defense Officers Course, or the Army NBC Defense Officers Course, as well as Northern Warfare School at Fort Greeley, Alaska.
And I remember back in the mid-90s reading some of his books that had come out in the early 90s, really forecasting much of now what has unfolded.
And he writes kind of these historical novels, but that are slash set in the future, And the latest is Survivor's novel of the coming collapse.
He puts it in a novel form, but there's real people.
in these books as well, and it's a great way to get this information across to the general public.
Again, his book is available in stores everywhere and at Infowars.com.
We'll also talk about some non-fiction survival books and more today here as well for PrisonPlanet.tv viewers.
Now, before we went live here, I asked Mr. Rawls some of the subjects he wanted to cover, and they're exactly the ones I wanted to get to.
Upcoming vote in Greece, preparedness for the banking crisis from Europe, affecting the US, general preparedness, preparation for an internet attack.
But I want to get to that after I ask him this first question.
We are seeing a total acceleration of open world government being announced just since he was on three months ago or so.
We're seeing the announcement of 30,000 armed drones to enforce Agenda 21.
The military openly announcing they'll use foreign troops in America The head of the army coming out, the civilian head, the CFR two weeks ago saying, we want rapid reaction troops, regular army, marines, in every citizen area, basically going after the American people inside every city.
Just amazing developments that we've seen being prepared in the shadows.
It's all rolling out.
And my concern is that means they're getting ready to activate.
They wouldn't be admitting all this and doing public announcements if they weren't getting ready or preparing to go operational.
We'll get his take on that.
But we are definitely living in some wild times.
And I remember Bob Chapman before he died with his sources in U.S.
embassies.
My sources then confirmed it.
That a year and a half ago, they were getting rid of dollars and denominating in gold and a spectrum of other currencies at U.S.
embassies worldwide.
The plans for bank holidays in Europe and to control ATMs and use the borders they've been firing back up, not to keep the immigrants out, but to keep the people of Europe in.
That's all been announced in the Associated Press, Reuters, you name it, two days ago.
So, it's one thing to, again, academically, intellectually follow history, follow the documents that leak, the sources, to see this being built in the warehouse.
I mean, it's kind of like those old films from World War I, World War II, where they open up this big giant curtain and there's a battleship and then it slides into the water.
We peeked behind and saw the battleship being built against us.
Now the curtains are open, they're chopping the blocks, it's going into the water.
And it's announcing Don't Run, We're Your Friend show.
This is really serious.
I want to ask him first, does he agree that things are accelerating?
And B, why are they moving so quickly now?
So again, the proprietor of survivalblog.com, James Wesley Rawls.
James, thanks for coming on.
You heard my lengthy diatribe question there.
Give us your analysis on that point.
Well, thanks for having me on.
Yes, I believe that things are accelerating.
There's a lot of policy planners in the Obama White House and especially in Europe that are pretty frantic right now.
They see the European Economic Union falling apart at the seams.
The whole southern periphery of the Eurozone seems to be in huge trouble economically.
There's Virtually no way that they could repay their loans.
The Greeks back in May had a referendum which basically failed on austerity and since then they've been under the period of an internal agreement with the EU called the Minimoneo where they've established bridge loans but basically everyone's waiting to see what's going to happen with this vote on Sunday.
We're recording this here June 15th, a Friday.
In just two days there's going to be this this second vote in Greece and No one's really sure what's going to happen at the tail end of this.
All I can say with certainty is there's virtually no way they can pay this money back.
It's a mountain of debt and interest rates are starting to spike in Greece, Italy, and Spain.
And that's indicative that the euro isn't going to hang in there, that there's going to be a collapse of the euro.
In the short term, I think we could see the dollar gain value versus the euro.
And there could be some economic benefit briefly here in the United States, but in the long run, because our debt situation is almost as bad as Greece's.
Sure, it creates a black hole effect anyways.
It's like they're falling, but we're falling right beside them as well, but it creates a momentary uplift as people run into the dollar in fear.
It's relative safety in the dollar.
A long-term prognosis is just as bad.
In fact, in total dollars, it's much worse.
As a percentage of GDP, it's worse in Greece, but if you look at the total indebtedness, it's huge in the United States.
Inevitably, what's going to happen is a certain chain of events will have chaos in Europe, We'll probably see a banking crisis there.
Full-scale bank runs, bank holidays, and all that.
Interest rates will spike.
But then the credit rating agencies like Moody's and Fitch are going to downgrade the United States.
And when that happens, that's the key trigger event because we've been under an era of ZERP, which is zero interest rate.
When we get away from ZURP and interest rates start to go up, and they have to go up when the U.S.
government's creditworthiness is downgraded, people are going to start demanding more and more interest to continue to invest in U.S.
Treasuries.
At that point, all bets are off because The current debt progressions are based on essentially zero interest rates in terms of true interest versus inflation.
If we start having to pay 3%, 4%, 5% on short-term treasury paper, and anywhere from 5% to 15% on long-term paper, our ability to repay our debts will be no better than our ability to repay our debts will be no better than the nation of And we'll go through our own crisis just like this, but on a grand scale.
Once interest rates move, watch out.
Well said.
One more question along these lines, then I want to get into the other points that you'd like to get into, because I agree with you they're extremely important.
I remember Oh, I guess back in 1998, so almost 14 years ago, economist George Humphrey, who's also a successful private businessman here in Austin, Texas, city council person as well, a friend of mine, saying, the global elite, the private federal reserve, the Rothschilds, the Rockefellers, they're going to sell these derivatives, have government sign on, it'll be over a thousand trillion.
They'll implode it the next 10 to 15 years.
Out of that, they'll announce the Bank of the World as the savior.
I mean, Humphrey literally on my radio show and in some books and tapes he put out, laid it completely out with absolute precision.
And then other people, you know, I remember Bob Chapman five, six years ago, countless others saying, you know, this is done on purpose, this is a consolidation, they get us to sign on to Too Big to Fail.
In 2008, all the experts I interviewed said, It's designed to get worse.
Europe, then Asia, then the U.S.
They'll fall like dominoes.
It's a consolidation.
Bank of the World will be announced.
I saw Bilderberg members brag, like Etienne D'Avignon, that, yes, we set up the euro to consolidate Europe.
They designed it to bankrupt things and to, quote, have it fail and then offer a new superstructure as the answer.
But a lot of the experts I agree with now say that they've overdone it so bad, But they may even destroy themselves.
But clearly, this was engineered to a great extent, but they may have gone too far.
Or, all these guests I had on, all these experts, and my own analysis, we were wrong, but we were right.
We were right about what was going to happen, but we were wrong about the elite being in control of it.
I know that's Kind of some Rumsfellian logic, but I want to get from you your take on that.
I mean, is there a method to this madness of command destruction post-industrial world?
I mean, the elites say that's their plan, or is that more their destructive, psychopathic I think it is pre-designed.
and that they want to destroy, but they also want to be control freaks, so they lie to themselves and think that they're in control of it, like Hitler attacking on three fronts.
A complex statement, but you're a military historian.
Give us your take on that.
Is this under the elite's control?
Is this pre-designed?
I think it is pre-designed.
I think their intent is at least a partial implosion.
Whether or not they're going to remain in control remains to be seen.
I think that there's a good chance that the situation could get completely away from them and their planned announcement of a global currency and a global economic union might very well fall apart.
It's difficult to say what the end result's going to be.
All I can say is we're going to have some incredibly turbulent times for the next couple of years and that people need to get themselves prepared.
I think that the citizenry of Greece has the right idea right now.
They're pulling out a billion dollars a day of their deposits from Greek banks.
Common sense dictates that Americans should probably be doing the same thing.
If they realized just how unbacked their bank accounts were, right now there's just, you know...
Pennies on the dollar, really.
If everyone went to go get their money out of the bank simultaneously, we would see the banks cleaned out in the course of just two days.
Yeah, the number was three cents on the dollar two years ago.
Now I'm told it's less than two cents on the dollar of physical cash is actually there.
Right.
The total money supply that's been printed or minted here in the United States is only about a trillion dollars.
Excuse me.
800 billion, I think, is the exact figure.
But that's nothing compared to the total money supply, which is enormous.
So, what people have in their banks are just electronic digits, and there's no way that they can even start to cover withdrawals if they start to happen.
And on Thursday evening, I posted a piece in my blog titled, 20 Reasons Why America's Next Bank Holiday Will Be a Nightmare.
I'd recommend that people take a look at that.
Let's go over that right now.
Since you raised that point, it's at survivalblog.com or link to it at infowars.com.
Go over that for us.
Well, basically, a bank holiday, which we haven't seen in the United States since the 1930s, would be a government mandated closure of part or all of the banks in the United States to stem off the flood of withdrawals that will take place if we have a bank run.
And in the event of a bank holiday, in a modern era, it's not just a physical run with people standing in line in their banks.
They will cut off and cut people off electronically as well.
All online banking will be suspended.
All ATM machines will be shut down.
Well banks already, this is already happening in Europe as you've stated, banks already act, I mean I've gone in to get a few thousand out and they try to refuse until I throw a fit and I mean this is outrageous, continue.
Well the other thing that's really frightening that I pointed out in that article is that all of the SNAP payments which are on EBT cards now, they used to be food stamps, All those SNAP payments are also negotiated through the bank check clearance system.
So if they shut down the check clearance system, they're also going to shut down food stamps.
That's right, and of course the Federal Reserve runs that check clearance system and its regional systems totally strangleholding our economy.
I want to get back into your 20 points here, but just thinking about how accurate I've been, you've been, Ron Paul, I mean, we have been so incredibly dead on watching the globalists, because they're operating in plain view.
Their whole attack pattern is designed for a zombified sleep state population who are victims of this, but it's really amazing Looking back at my 17 years, your 20 plus years, other people's 50 years, how the old timers absolutely foresaw exactly what was coming and held it back for a long time but now it's here.
It's like a kid waiting for Christmas.
It finally comes, you can't believe it, but this is the anti-Christmas.
What's your statement on that point?
Because here we are, you were on just a year ago, then a few months ago, talking about bank runs in Europe, and ATM withdrawals, and capital controls, and the TSA getting ready for it.
Now it's all admitted!
I mean, it's just... Again, I'm not patting us on the back here.
It's really mind-blowing, though, how accurate the Patriot movement has been.
Do you think that's checkmated or put in check the establishment?
I mean, does that freak them out, how accurate we were, reverse engineering with the available intelligence, what we were dealing with?
Well, perhaps.
Certainly, we've been a lot more accurate than the talking heads on the economic shows on CNBC who are basically still touting buy and hold stock purchases and that the bottom has been reached in the real estate market and a lot of other fantasies.
It's people like, you mentioned the late Bob Chapman, who is one of my absolute heroes.
He passed away just a week ago, but for 30 years Bob was warning that this financial reckoning day was going to come, and he was absolutely right, and he was one of my mentors.
Let's get back to your 20 points.
I'm sorry to digress.
It's just important to point out, people watching for the first time, this is not a game.
Is this a game?
Is this a joke?
Is this pessimism porn?
Because you said three years ago, we never left the recession.
I said that.
We all said it.
Now they admit, oh yeah, we never left it.
It's a depression.
They're lying to us.
Well, yeah, we are being lied to systematically.
People need to wake up.
At this point, it's beyond just political rhetoric.
It's beyond the awakening stage.
At this point, people need to get physically prepared because we're going to see the onslaught of all the effects.
You're seeing what's going on with Greece with their economy cratering and unemployment rate over 30% effectively.
We're going to see the same thing here in the United States.
We'll see our own bank runs.
We'll see our own bank holidays.
It could get very ugly very quickly, so people need to make tangible preparations.
By the way, I don't want to scare people, but I got a call from a very famous person just a few, well actually last week, and they were like, wow, I just talked to this big banker, and they said this could happen in a month, and they actually put dates on it, and that everything was going to basically start here soon if things you know, weren't, quote, fixed in Europe, as you just said.
So I made some phone calls, and they said to some separate sources I have, and they said yes.
And then I noticed that all the big money has been busy getting their money out.
So how close are we to the trigger that we're already seeing in Europe?
I think we're fairly close.
But as I indicated earlier, we're going to see a lag here in the United States where, in fact, the U.S. administration, dollar is going to benefit.
Switzerland has already instituted kind of reverse currency controls.
They had too many deposits coming into Switzerland because it was seen as a safe haven, and it was making the Swiss franc too strong and hurting Swiss exports out of Swiss industry.
Negative interest rates.
Yes, they actually have capital controls in reverse.
Most countries, like Zimbabwe, are trying to keep currency in the country.
In Switzerland, they're trying to keep it out.
I think in the short term, we may actually see the United States as a short-term safe haven for capital coming out of Europe.
But that, the worm will turn just a few months later.
I think certainly by this fall, October, November, maybe where we see our crisis here in the United States.
Well, we just saw that a few weeks ago, where the euro goes way down, so the dollar goes up, and then the dollar went down too, and then, so it's gyrating.
Oh, definitely.
Ditto with the precious metals.
I have a lot of readers that are a little panicky right now saying, well, what's wrong with my silver and gold?
Why have they gone down?
It's only because the economic crisis in Europe is so bad that there's a scramble for cash and people are liquidating every asset imaginable.
They're selling stocks, they're selling bonds, and they're even selling precious metals.
Well, speaking of Bob Chapman, he predicted that, that as things first start really imploding, at first, tangibles will go down as people are dumping them, you know, but also there's a depression within the inflation.
There's inflation in currencies, but depression in the real economy, but long term, if you look at it, things are only going to go up as those currencies die.
Right, yeah.
In the short term, we're going to see a mix of both.
Inflation and deflation simultaneous here in the States.
In the long run though, it'll be nothing but inflation and more inflation.
All right, go through your other 20 points.
Well, just to summarize them briefly, I mentioned the importance of the SNAP payments from the USDA for what used to be called food stamps.
The implications of that are huge.
It'll be bad enough when people find their ATM shut down and most people only keep a few hundred dollars in cash at most at home.
But what about the people that are living on the ragged edge?
What happens when their food stamp payments, their EBT cards, no longer work?
There will be blood in the streets.
We could see major riots in the urban areas very quickly after a banking holiday is announced because, again, those EBT cards will be non-functional.
Now, the other thing is most people don't carry cash for even Day-to-day expenses.
Most people who buy gasoline or diesel fuel pay at the pump with a credit card.
The credit card processing systems could shut down as well.
Now they're partially delinked from banking, but inevitably if banking shuts down, the credit cards are going to have to shut down.
Likewise, online payments like PayPal, since they use the credit card system in their milieu, And they have to have access to banking, inevitably.
You know, for a short period of time, they might be able to get by with just credit card processing, but they have to touch banking at some point.
Online banking or online payments like PayPal will shut down as well.
The only online payment that's going to be working that I can see would probably be Bitcoin because it's not tied even to any currency.
So anyone who doesn't already have a Bitcoin account should go ahead and set one up.
Just as a contingency, because we very well might see no way to make online transactions outside of the Bitcoin arena.
And then we know what happens.
The same thing's happening in Europe.
Give the bankers more power.
They'll fix things if you sign over everything, if you accept carbon taxes.
How long do you expect them to try to bring this country into cardiac arrest until we acquiesce to their financial terrorism?
I think they'll push as hard and as fast as they can to try to back us into a corner.
If they try to threaten us with the same sort of blackmail, really, that Greece and Spain and Italy have been put through with austerity measures, things could be very, very ugly very quickly.
Don't underestimate the ability of American politicians to force, through the whole mass media, to force America into accepting a global currency and into accepting these, what they're going to call, austerity measures.
But it really is going to be the looting of America that takes place.
We're going to see already in Greece, they've been told, well, yes, we can extend you some more loans if you give us all of your gold.
Well, they may ask for all the gold that's left in Fort Knox before all is said and done.
And by the way, as Ron Paul has pointed out, we really don't know how much gold there really is left in Fort Knox.
Incredible.
Separately, they're trying globally, as you know, in Europe, the United States, to pass all these draconian anti-free speech, anti-internet pieces of legislation.
And then there's separately a National Geographic saying, oh my gosh, the big sunstorm's coming up, could knock out the power grid, knock out the internet.
Oh, we've got to give our internet rights up.
Stuxnet, which is admittedly a U.S.
Israeli Operation.
That's not debatable.
So we've got all of this happening, all of this beginning to unravel here, and we're being told that we've got to prepare for a cyber attack on the Internet.
But then I even read Pentagon reports where they go, we'll attack ourselves to test things.
This looks like the perfect false flag that during this economic implosion to convert us to the New World Order, they're not going to want James Wesley Rawls, Alex Jones, and others out there on the internet being able to counter their lies minute by minute.
I mean, already when they put lies out, I'm able to respond to it and the White House has responded to us on subjects like shutting down power plants.
We're definitely having an effect.
And I tell you, it feels good to know there's thousands of prominent people because it'd be scary if we were alone.
Thank God people like you and others But then I see things like Rand changing directions, joining partly with the neocons, and really changing his body language and things, and looking scared.
We've had reporters go talk to him in person, and I'm seeing a lot of people line up, and I'm seeing a lot of people we thought were 100% in our camp, not all the way, and folks we didn't think in our camp are showing they are.
I mean, I'm really seeing battle lines being drawn.
I mean, I'm ranting there, but give us your take on the whole Rand Paul endorsement of Mitt Romney and endorsing Iran sanctions his dad was against and hiring a bunch of neocons Alex I think you have it exactly right.
I think battle lines are being drawn And just like with World War II, before the war everyone lined themselves under the Allied or Axis powers, we could very well see a situation much like World War II where these cabals get formed and they could be shifting in the short term, but it'll be interesting to see
Where Iran ends up, where Russia ends up, where China ends up, something tells me that the United States is not going to have a lot of friends in World War III.
And what we're seeing right now economically could very well, in the course of the next five years, turn into The beginnings of World War 3.
It could get literally that bad.
Already we're seeing governments faced with votes of no confidence.
Things could get to the point where it's not just internal dissent and internal politics.
We could see, you know, the push of bayonets by the time things are done.
You know, I'm often fond of saying that when you stop making your payments on your car, they come to tow your car away.
Well, what happens when a government defaults on its sovereign debt?
They may come and tow the whole kingdom away.
Well, that's what I was going to get to next.
Look, I see these neocom publications going, Jones doesn't like the wars in Syria and Libya.
He must be for the Muslims.
Our government is using Al-Qaeda in these countries, and it's in the LA Times.
They're not even hiding it.
It's the height of insulting our intelligence.
They say if they overthrow Syria, they're going to kill all the Jews and force the Christians out.
And I'm supposed to get behind that?
I mean, it's total cuckoo land.
The Russians are encircled, threatening to nuke Europe now.
They didn't even talk like that during the Cold War.
There's all sorts, as you said, battle lines being drawn.
They have neocons saying, Jones must work for the Russians because he doesn't want to have a war.
No, I work for America and my family.
Bankers captured America.
They're planning to, it's bankers launching drones, it's bankers raising my taxes, it's bankers setting up highway checkpoints, it's bankers launching the TSA.
If the Russians were doing any of this, I'd be saying a war!
But we're so designed to fight the Chinese or the Russians, and the Chinese of course are allied with the banksters, that we can't imagine an economic Like Cicero said, the enemy that comes openly to the gate with their standard, no problem.
It's the internal infiltrator.
How do you get America, the police, the military, who on average are great people, I've talked to a lot of military and police, to understand we've already been taken over, the flag's only up there in symbol, and that we're being led into something that's probably meant to destroy us.
I mean, if you look at all the pieces, I think you're hinting at the fact we're being set up.
I think we definitely are.
And the amount of internal dissent, I think, is only going to be exacerbated.
You know, there's already the red state, blue state paradigm, but could you imagine if that got to the point where we literally Got to the point where states wanted to secede from the Union, just like in the 1860s.
It could come to that.
And internationally, as I mentioned before, we could see the equivalent of World War II, but here we might even be tossing nukes around.
The full implications of this are absolutely staggering, and to think that the average American is still really concerned with what the movie stars are wearing to the latest film premieres, and who got who pregnant, it absolutely boggles me to think that Are still caught up in the Bretton Circus?
Oh, it's the Matrix!
Speak to that, because I still occasionally have somebody stop their motorcycle and go, hey, Mr. Tinfoil Hat, most people don't now, but even if they're awake, they say, what do you do?
And then to watch the tabloids and Dancing with the Stars, and I mean, I mean, again, I'm not abnormal that I can't go to a movie now and not think about this stuff.
I'm not abnormal that when I'm at a swim meet with my kids, all I'm thinking about is this, because this is, this is, this is, The same stuff we saw before World War I and World War II, but now with all these super weapons, as you were saying, and you just wish people... Imagine what's going to happen in America as this whole... It's like ten torpedoes of crisis are coming at us.
All ten may hit us, three may only hit us, but some of them are going to hit us, and I don't know what's going to happen if during the Great Depression, university estimates are seven million people died, starved to death.
Or die from complications of malnutrition when people were Christian and hard-working and 90% somewhat self-sufficient.
Now we're 90% urban, totally unself-sufficient.
Half of the 10% in the rural areas are somewhat self-sufficient.
I mean, it's almost like a...
Road-like scenario and for those of us that are informed it's not we're elitist.
Oh, we're informed you're dumb We're like for God's sakes I wish you'd listen to us and get because being prepared is one of our only checks against this I'm ranting but continue commenting on what it's like for you to see the zombie public and then to know I mean Medvedev and Putin are Saying, we're lining nukes up.
If you move missiles in, we're going to nuke you.
Obama says, I'm moving the missiles in.
And generally from history, I mean, am I wrong in saying generally the Russians don't bluff?
I mean, I've seen a lot of cases where they threaten stuff like this.
Yeah, they're pretty much straight talkers when you come down to it.
They have their propaganda arm.
What you hear out of what used to be the Politburo and now out of the The Russian Federal Government is pretty much what you see is what you get.
And if they're posturing that way, you can see that the blood is in the water and they're doing, you know, In Russia, they always think in terms of Mother Russia.
And they will always keep that as the bottom line.
They will never compromise their sovereignty.
And when push comes to shove, they'll do whatever it takes.
They'll side with whoever they need to side with to make sure that Mother Russia survives.
Now, it's difficult to say how it's all going to play out.
And like you, I'm amazed to see so many people still in zombie mode, but it's encouraging to see people reading blogs like mine and listening to radio shows like yours to see how many people truly are waking up, they're making tangible Practical steps to getting their families prepared in terms of water filtration and food storage, communications equipment, and so forth, because they recognize that there is going to be disruption ahead.
And as you pointed out before, we live in a much more fragile society than we lived in in the 1930s.
Things are going to come unglued in the next 24 months, as near as I can tell.
Well, I'm seeing the public, and even the media admits this, now that there's less money and we're in a deep recession slash depression, more fights, more arrogance.
I mean, a bunch of spoiled brats.
And I'm spoiled, too, compared to my dad or my grandfather, because they grew up on farms.
I mean, I can't fix one-tenth of what my dad can fix.
He couldn't fix what his dad could fix, because back then you had to make the combine work, because there wasn't money to go to the bank.
And I think about People like my grandfather who got up at 4.30 in the morning and quit working at 7.00, 8.00 at night, and I've worked on that farm during the summer, and then I look at what Americans are like today.
My God, they have no idea what they're facing.
If the Great Depression could bring people like my grandfather and his parents to their knees, what is this going to do to us?
Yes, we live in a sissified generation.
And a dumbed-down generation.
And unfortunately, we're going to see a massive die-off.
I can't see any other solution.
Unfortunately, it's going to come to that.
It won't be anything that we precipitate.
We're just going to be spectators and hopefully going to pull through this.
But we're going to witness perhaps as much as 80% of the American population dying off.
By the time all is said and done.
Because if there is an orchestrated collapse, we are unfortunately living in a house of cards, and the vast majority of the citizenry has no preparation.
They have two or three days worth of food at home, half a tank of gas, no stored fuel.
They are going to be completely behind the power curve, and they are going to be like sheep for the slaughter.
Yeah, I don't even know if I'm up to this, and then you look at the average person, they revel in chicken-necked weakness.
I mean, I went to a couple stores yesterday with my son, and I was watching the people, and I mean, I guess television and the soft culture did it, but it looked like they'd been shot with like a Mutation slash weenie gun.
And the women were hen-pecking their husbands and boyfriends and hen-pecking at the registers and hen-pecking at me.
I'm not trying to be negative, because there's a lot of great people.
But it seems like when you're in the city, you're really around a bunch of scum.
You get out in the country, it's a little bit better.
Have you noticed this?
Oh, definitely.
The level of civility in our society is dropping.
As I referred to it previously, the scissification of our society is definitely in full swing.
Very few people are willing to stand up for what's right.
They just want to go along and get along and make as few waves as possible.
Blob along!
They want to, like, blob along!
Yeah, I hate to say it, but it's like those websites you see that have all the pictures of the Walmart shoppers.
That's the society we're living in.
We live in a society of sheep, really.
Sheeple, as one radio host used to refer to them.
We have an overweight generation, an under-educated generation, and a generation that's fixated on their day-to-day pleasures.
And when true hard times come, they're going to be completely unprepared.
And they're going to fall apart mentally and physically.
They're not up to the task physically because they're overweight, out of shape, and You know, eating, you know, horrible food.
Mentally, they're not up to the challenge either.
We have a huge number of people that are addicted to either non-prescription drugs, illicit drugs, or on, you know, they're on everything from blood thinners to To mood-altering drugs, to you name it.
We have 7 or 8% of the population now that's insulin-dependent, diabetic.
What's going to happen to all these people when the power grid goes down?
Again, it's going to be a huge die-off.
Well, look at Katrina.
The government couldn't and wouldn't even help people, and it was an absolute hellhole right there.
But the government wouldn't let the people walk out on the highways and get away, though.
I mean, it just shows a total predatory view.
I want to run through some more of the points here.
Let's look at the upcoming vote in Greece.
Preparedness for banking crisis.
We already kind of mentioned that, but recapping it.
The general preparedness and the preparedness for a internet attack or megaflare.
Okay, that's a lot to cover it in one interview, but I think it is important that people get prepared.
In terms of a banking crisis, people need to keep a lot more cash at home.
And as I pointed out in my Peace and Survival blog, a good chunk of that ought to be in 5 cent coins, in nickels, because it's the only currently circulating coin in the United States, still being minted, that's worth its face value.
Everything else is just a token.
Granted, pre-1981 pennies are worth, what, 2.6 times face value right now, but you have to sort those, and that's not even worth the time to do so.
Great point!
People can make a whole living off getting bulk pennies, picking them out, and nickels, but folks don't even want to do that.
They'd rather just get a welfare check.
Yeah, they'd rather do that.
But again, people need to get prepared for this coming banking crisis.
I think we will have a delay before it takes place here in the States because the dollar and US investments are going to be seen as a safe haven temporarily.
But this is your window of opportunity, folks.
Get a lot of cash.
It should be in one and five dollar bills, not large bills, because you're going to need to be able to make change.
If there's a banking crisis, people are going to have to revert to cash for just about everything.
Stock that cash away.
Develop a good hiding place at home that won't be found.
Make sure at least two family members know where it is in case you don't come home someday.
Get your food storage squared away.
Get a water filter.
Make plans to team up with your country cousins or friends that you have that live in lightly populated rural farming areas because you may need to depend upon them.
You may need to double up with them.
For anyone who's already at retirement age or has the opportunity to retire early, Or who is self-employed, I recommend that you go ahead and make the move now.
You're actually behind the power curve.
You really should have moved several years ago so you'd have a chance to get established, put all your fences in, get your water supply squared away, plant a garden.
Oh yeah, I mean if I didn't have to be in Austin, which is a great town to have the crew here, I would be A thousand miles from nowhere.
I mean, I would be out of here just on the chance there's going to be this collapse, and now we're just hoping for a way to get out of it.
That's my next question.
I want you to abbreviate and finish the other points.
We'll have you back for a second interview very soon as this all accelerates.
Is there any way right now to avert this?
And on a scale of 1 to 10, if we can't avert it, I mean, are we looking at a 3, a 4, God forbid, a worse of a collapse?
Well, I don't think it can be avoided at this point.
Now, it could be delayed quite a while.
They might have a currency reform here in the States.
As I mentioned in my blog, they might even do something as severe as dropping a zero or even two zeros off the dollar, which would cause an overnight Boost to the economy because suddenly gasoline instead of being $3 a gallon will be back to $0.30 a gallon and a movie ticket instead of $9 will be $0.90.
So it'll give people the illusion of prosperity in the short term.
There could be an event like that that would kind of carry us over, basically muddle through a A depression for a couple of years but in the long term things are going to break down.
We will see a full-scale economic collapse.
It's at this point because of the national debt alone I see this absolutely inevitable.
And it's kind of a perpetual motion machine.
The global architects admit they set this in motion to consolidate total power.
That's why they do rule the earth, though.
They're wicked, they don't care, they're ruthless, and they're willing to gamble it all.
They're willing to gamble it all.
You know, the Rothschilds, on record, helped fund Hitler up front.
Then he was even able to kill some of the French Rothschilds during the war.
I mean, these globalists They really are willing to gamble it all for total power, and so they're either going to get everything, or we're going to end up defeating them in the process.
Yeah, well if nothing else, they have clearly demonstrated they're willing to use the citizenry of every nation as their pawns.
We need to be proactive so we don't end up being pawns on the chessboard.
We basically have to move ourselves off the chessboard at this point.
People need to hunker down in a secure area.
You know, the Hill Country out of Austin is not all that bad.
There's a lot of other areas like that in the United States.
I'm particularly fond of what I refer to as the American Redoubt, which is in the inland Northwest, which consists of Idaho, Montana, Eastern Oregon, Eastern Washington.
There's going to be some fairly safe places, relatively safe places, and there are no full-on guarantees, but from an actuarial standpoint, your safety will be much higher in those areas.
Yeah, well I do live in the Hill Country, but I only live in the edge of it.
It takes me 35 minutes to get to work because I'm in South Austin, so it's basically just straight from Austin out to the country.
You know, I've got a little piece of property, there's ranches around me, but I'm not naive.
You know, I'm only about three miles off a major road.
I guess people like yourself, but also Joel Skousen, they're saying maybe have another just even piece of property with a trailer or something further out.
I mean, I'm springing this on you, but perhaps next time you can tell me, what's the safest area of the Hill Country?
How far would I have to be out?
Like a hundred miles from Austin?
50 or more probably.
The crucial thing though is to make sure you're on the side road of a side road.
You don't want to be along any natural line of drift for people fleeing the cities.
All the major highways are going to get flooded with refugees.
And then the major farm to market roads, the side roads, To a lesser extent.
But even fewer people are going to end up on the side roads of the side roads.
That's where you want to be.
And that's my advice to basically, even for my listeners in the Midwest or in the Deep South, if you could be back on the side road of a side road, the vast majority of the problems are not going to come looking for you.
You'll be able to avoid them.
Aren't guns going to be the big equalizer though?
If you've got millions and millions being sold a month, And roving bands, because I saw this when a hurricane hit Houston.
I was at our family ranch in East Texas hunting.
And hanging out with family, and there were just people from Houston everywhere.
Crime did explode, but all that happened was a bunch of looters just got shot.
I mean, that's going to be incredible because, I mean, even where I live, I've got a fence, a wall up, I've got dogs.
They're going to wake me up.
I've got cameras.
You come over.
I'm going to get up.
You're dead.
I mean, it's, it's, I mean, I could kill, I'm not, I'm not waiting for it.
I'm not happy about it, but my children are going to stay safe.
I'll kill 500 people that come on my property.
I mean, it's over.
Well, the people that are well armed are not going to get picked on.
It's just like if you look at urban crime right now, the people that get picked on are the people that are most vulnerable.
The elderly, the infirmed, and the unarmed.
If and when we do see a major societal collapse, these roving bands are going to come out of the big cities.
They're going to pick on your Prius-driving, Birkenstock-wearing neighbors first.
They're not going to want to pick on someone who's well-armed, especially in a situation where their advanced medical care has gone away.
So if they drive up on something that's got a rock wall and then behind that a fence, they're going to figure out that's it.
But in a way, isn't a fortress like that even more obvious in a way?
Well, you know, Joel Skousen has always said, you want to have your house just completely blend in, but you have to make compromises to your architecture if you do that.
I'd actually rather look like a tough nut to crack.
No, no.
I mean, that's what I'm behind.
I mean, I'm behind.
I mean, I did it.
I believe all this.
I've built multiple things, and I'm going to, I mean, I'm ready.
Well, I think you're going to pull through just fine, and most people that are well prepared are going to pull through.
Again, if they're on a side road of a side road.
And again, the looters are not going to want to pick on you.
You start cranking rounds off over their heads, they're going to go find a softer target.
They're not going to want to take casualties.
They're going to go pick on Granny down the road.
Incredible.
In closing, this has been an amazing back-and-forth discussion.
A lot more is at survivalblog.com.
But let me just try to shut up.
I'll have to actually turn my mic off for about 6-7 minutes to let you finish.
Get into preparedness for an internet attack.
Either false flag or launched by the Chinese or Russians.
Where do you see the real threat coming from and how do you prepare for that?
Well, I think there's definitely a threat.
In fact, my blog site recently had an attack.
It was a denial of service attack where they put thousands of pings on my site to try to shut it down.
But we transitioned to a cloud server and basically laughed it off.
But we could see far more sophisticated attacks in the future.
There could be computer viruses.
There could be email attacks.
We could see the government itself attempt to shut down part or all of the Internet.
People need to make plans for a world without the Internet in a worst case.
And it's important that people Go to their favorite websites and look up the dotted quad address, the IP address, for The IVP4 or the IVP6 now address for each of those sites and literally write down the dotted quad address.
I got to interrupt again.
You're always so on target.
All my IT people said this years ago.
Now they admit, the UN and the US government admit they're going to take our websites away under these treaties for no reason.
People won't be able to find us.
We're going to be blocked in the Google, which is really NSA search engine.
We've got to have the real IP address.
Stress that again but in layman's terms for folks like me.
If you do a web search in Google or Bing or wherever, search for IP lookup and there are tools that you can, online tools, there are web pages where you Paste in the URL, the name of your favorite websites, and then it will spit back the IP addresses for each of them.
That's the easy way to find them.
Again, IP lookup.
Bookmark an IP lookup page and start writing down and bookmarking the dotted quad addresses for all your favorite websites.
Sites like infoawards.com or sites like mine or whatever.
Get those written down And literally carry that in your wallet because you never know where you're going to be if there's an internet shutdown or under what circumstances you might have to flee your own home and end up somewhere else where you don't have your desktop computer or your laptop with you.
So you literally want to keep those in your wallet.
That's step one.
Step two is For the more advanced computer users that are listening to this, you need to explore what's called the Darknet.
Do a web search on Darknet and get yourself set up.
It does involve installing a little software on your computer.
It's not as easy to use as the internet through a standard web browser.
But it's important that people develop a presence in the darknet so that if the main internet disappears someday, there's a good possibility that the darknet will still be up and running.
It's far beyond the scope of this interview to try to describe it all here, but I know that a lot of people listening to this are quite intelligent and quite computer savvy.
You folks need to take the time to Research what the Darknet is and how to get on the Darknet.
And as I mentioned previously, you also need to get set up with a Bitcoin account so that you can transact business on the Darknet.
It may become crucial in the next couple of years because the Internet as we know it may be either partially or completely taken away from us.
Yeah, we know governments and corporations aren't just digging in physically.
They're building their own secret networks and public networks and gearing up to weather the storm by design.
The only question is, will enough of us get ready for this to perhaps slow it down or back it off or, by God's good graces, stop it?
But governments have said it's a foregone conclusion.
The Rockefeller Foundations, the British Ministry of Defense, They were writing this in the 60s plan for around this time.
Now that stuff's all public.
They engineered it.
They want it to happen.
And that's... I mean, people are like, oh, you guys are gloom and doom.
Look, by the grace of God, if we avert this, that's great.
The social engineers want this.
It's on record.
And you're insane if you don't get ready.
Do you agree with that statement?
Yes, I do.
Now to get back to practical, tactical steps, beyond the darknet, the other thing that I recommend that people do is get themselves licensed as amateur radio operators and get an HF radio.
You need to get a or a multi-band, all-band radio, but HF is the crucial band to be able to access.
You need to be, if you can't Pick up a handset and key it up and be operating between 10 and 40 megs.
You're behind the power curve.
You want to be able to have a radio preferably on an alternative power system, which would mean a photovoltaic power system with a good-sized battery bank.
And most of the ham rigs are 12 volt anyway, so you can tap directly into your battery bank.
You don't have to go through an inverter.
People need to have that as the ultimate backup, because if the internet goes down, we could see a situation where there's martial law in a few cities, but unless patriots can communicate, We're going to be powerless.
We really need to be able to push to talk, as they say.
So get a ham radio license.
Get together with your local ARRL affiliate ham radio club.
Get teamed up with an Elmer.
An Elmer is like an old guy who teaches young guys how to use ham radio.
Get linked up, matched up with a Elmer, and come up to speed on ham radio quickly.
That's right, because communications is everything.
The globalists will shut this down during their purge.
We're just awash in info today and don't appreciate it.
But the power of ham radio, and I know a lot of patriots have been into this forever, is that is that we're going to have those communications and then you can tune in anonymously now even having you know the the water bench for way but like you said taking a course so you understand the new the nuances sideband single sideband so you know what you're hearing you notice that's what fema and all the systems uses their backup the submarines but notice they're now going to scrambled
Fully scrambled, and trying to get police locally on fully scrambled, so we can't hear what's going on.
I mean, you can see this corporate board takeover.
Amazing information.
All right, well, Mr. Rawls, I want to thank you for joining us.
It's been an amazing discussion.
James Wesley Rawls' book, Survivors, a novel of the coming collapse, available at InfoWars.com.
I know you're awake, folks, but your friends and family may not be.
Great book to get, and give them every mind we unlock.
You know, I think that's the biggest thing in preparedness, too, is also having friends and family informed, and groups that can mutually aid each other.
A final comment on that, and anything else you'd like to add?
Well, just one quick follow-up on ham radio.
Even for folks that are on a very limited budget, for literally just $50, you can buy a pretty good quality All band receiver, so that you can at least listen to ham radio traffic, including sideband traffic.
There's some very inexpensive ones, some even under $30, like the Kato brand.
It's K-A-I-T-O.
And it's a very compact little receiver.
I recommend that people, at the very minimum, get set up to listen to ham radio.
But again, everything that you need to know in terms of physical preparation, you can find at my website at survivalblog.com.
And even before the physical preparation, I think it's important that people get right with God.
If you haven't renewed your Christian faith, don't expect to be able to pull through this.
I'm a Christian and I think it's very important that people get right with God.
You can't expect God's covenantal blessings unless you're in the covenant.
Well said, and let's put your site back up.
You have your IP address right there.
We were showing the InfoWars address earlier.
We can show the Survival Blog.
It's 95.143.193.148, and we showed.
And I've had my IT guys forever, so you've got to promote this.
I'm going to probably come out with a newspaper physically here soon, try to get out to people.
And we'll probably, like, have our IP address real big on there as well.
Amazing information.
James Wesley Rawls, thank you so much for spending time with us.
Very powerful interview today.
Thank you so much, Alex, and may God bless all your listeners.
You too, my friend, all your readers.
All right, there goes James Wesley Rawls.
If you want to support us so we can keep getting the word out and try to take the capital we've got to get more reporters, a physical newspaper, so there's physical copies of what's coming and what's happening out to everybody, if you'd like to see this operation continue, it costs a lot of money every year to run it, think about visiting InfoWarshop.com.
I have found the most inexpensive, high-quality shortwave radios.
I've tested these myself.
I've been carrying these five years now.
At the lowest price that you're going to find.
And they're available at InfoWarshop.com or InfoWarstore.com.
They're all there.
They have sidebands, single sidebands, solar-powered, crank.
This is what I have at my home.
I've got quite a few of them so I can give them away to friends and family.
But they're from, you know, $50 up to $200.
They're all right there.
And the Kato's are amazing.
They're all really fantastic systems.
And I hope that you'll visit Infowarshop.com and get those a lot lower and you'll find them in stores.
We also, for the water filtration, I've done the testing myself.
We've got the side-by-side comparison.
The ProPure is the best compared to all the gravity-fed filters.
10% discount with the code WATER at Infowarshop.com.
And lastly, we carry survivors there, but we have now, because I sold these like six, seven years ago, but they sold out.
They were, I think I'm going to pull the shrink wrap off of this.
This is the book, I was like 12, 13 years old, I think I was about 12, that crystallized my awakening.
I was already into history books because I found they were so entertaining.
I didn't know any better when I was like 10, started reading them.
None Dare Call Conspiracy ran out of print.
They printed like six million.
Five million sold right away back in the 70s, 74 or so the year I was born.
And there was like a million left.
Those are all sold.
It's been reprinted.
We have it for a limited time.
We're not even sure the publisher's going to continue it.
Discount it at Infowarshop.com.
And you read this, baby.
I said 74.
I haven't re-read it since I got it again.
I scanned through it.
1971.
I guess the one I got was a reprint in 74.
Wow.
1971.
This book lays it all out.
Graphics, photos.
It's only 140 pages long.
And it's at Infowarshop.com.
We also have, When Disaster Strikes, Matthew Stein, A Comprehensive Guide for Emergency Planning and Crisis Survival.
It's excellent.
We also have When Technology Fails by Matthew Stein.
Also very, very important.
Very encyclopedic.
And then you got this, Strategic Relocation, North American Guide to Safe Places, third edition.
And these are available, and you get a free citizen rule book and the rest of it at InfoWarshop.com.
Very important.
And these maps coincide basically with what Rawls is saying.
I hope we can avert this.
I hope he's wrong.
But I looked at the university studies.
I've covered them here on air.
Seven million people over nine years of the Great Depression starved to death.
My grandfather and all those old World War II vets that I'd go deer hunting with growing up all said that in Freestone County, where my dad's family's from in East Texas, there were almost no deer, raccoons, possums.
People make fun of people in the countryside in Michigan or Texas eating possums.
When your kids are starving to death, you eat possums.
In fact, I'm told they taste like pumpkin pie whenever you're starving to death.
There were almost no animals left.
That was people that knew how to grow crops.
Let me tell you something.
In Greece, it's totally collapsing.
A few months into Argentina being collapsed in 2000, the Washington Post reported families in ripped business suits, like in an apocalypse.
These were wealthy people, when a trailer overturned with cows on it, with knives cutting blobs of red flesh out, gobbling it.
There was a saying, as rich as an Argentine, or Argentine.
They were per capita wealthier than we were just 50, 60 years ago, but they were ripped off over and over again.
The globalists do plan this.
We may be able to stop them, but I'm telling you, this is their plan.
And you already see with just being in a deep recession slash depression how mean people are getting.
This is going to get crazy.
Show number one, buy firearms, learn how to use them.
I'm not a tough guy.
I'm just saying, I've already thought about my family.
I've got guns, and I've got a lot of them, and I know how to shoot.
You've seen that, you know, moderate shooting skills in our Brothers in Arms two videos we've done.
You need to get ready.
You need to learn how to use it, and you need to have water filtration, things like that.
You need to be ready.
Lastly, here at the end of the show, I want to show you The Economist magazine.
I haven't uploaded this yet.
I shot a video.
In fact, you know, we're taping the show tonight.
Perhaps we should download my little attack on Queen Elizabeth at the Barnes & Noble.
I took my son yesterday.
I've got like a little three-minute video we should air tonight if we have time.
Of course, if we did air this, it would mean it was earlier in the show.
Maybe we'll air it right here at the end if we've got a break.
We've got time to do that, don't we?
I'm so long-winded.
Maybe we do.
But I bought this while I was there.
The Economist.
Please can we start the engines now, Ms.
Merkel, the world economy, as if the Germans, who've bailed out close to a trillion dollars to the global banksters, saying it's for Greece when their economy isn't even that big, they're implying that if Germany, because they want Germany to be blamed for all this in the end, doesn't give unlimited trillions to the banksters, whose debt this is It's really been incurred by that all of Europe's going to collapse.
Notice, Ireland, Greece, now Spain, Italy, Portugal.
It's always, if this country gets the hundreds of billions it needs, which really goes to the bankers, everything will be okay.
But if they don't, it's a depression.
And then the next country, well, we'll see how Spain handles it.
And then if you read the fine print, the banksters are the ones sinking the world economy so they can buy it up for pennies on the dollar.
I mean, The Economist magazine throws this stuff directly in your face.
All right, great job to the crew, fabulous job this evening getting the word out.
A pretty scary show though.
I hope you'll get this video, those of you watching on YouTube and other places, out to everyone.
