Taylor, can’t you ever be happy? So far this year, the price of gold is up over 27%, your model portfolio is up nearly 80%, and all four sectors of gold and silver mining stocks in your portfolio are up triple digits. So why the less-than-ebullient headline? And last week, SilverCrest became your first 10-bagger this year. It’s gained 1,342% so far this year!
The short answer to that question is that I believe life itself, even if lived in poverty, is what is really important. And when the existence of human life on Earth is being threatened not only here and there in areas of the world where the U.S. is fighting wars, but also across the entire globe, what does the price of gold matter in the overall scheme of things?
The reason my mind has gone in this direction for this week’s letter is because of two articles I read recently in Zero Hedge that absolutely reflect my own understanding that it isn’t Russia or China that we need to worry about. Rather it’s the neoconservatives that have dominated American foreign policy in the U.S. to a growing degree ever since the implementation of the Federal Reserve and the IRS in 1913. Of course people like F. William Engdahl, who was my guest on this week’s radio show, along with the likes of other guests like Ron Paul, Ed Griffin, and many others have been influential in my thinking. Engdahl’s God’s of Money along with Griffin’s Creature from Jekyll Island provides insights into who really owns America and controls its propaganda machinery used to try to keep Americans down on the mushroom farm.
So, the mainstream propaganda turns the truth on its head. It says if you want peace and tranquility, vote for an extension of Obama. Vote for Hillary. If you are stupid and non college educated, go ahead and vote for Trump but if you do you are voting for World War III.
Mainstream propaganda espoused by well-spoken Harvard, Yale, and Princeton Ph.D.’s disguise simple but obvious truths such as the fact that it is NATO that is threatening Russia, not Russia threatening NATO. When was the last time you heard or saw anything of Russian or Chinese warships off the coast of the U.S.? Yet the neocons are pushing very hard a false narrative that Putin caused trouble in the Ukraine, when in fact it was George Soros and his NGO that overthrew the elected government in the Ukraine that led to Russia moving into Crimea.
Just have a look at the chart above, which was part of an article published in the German Economic News translated by Eric Zuesse and published at Zero Hedge (http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2016-06-14/nato-begins-encirclement-russia).
Here is a portion of that article:
“NATO prepares a veritable military buildup in Eastern Europe: German soldiers are operating in Lithuania, the British take over Estonia, and U.S. soldiers move in to protect Latvia. The Canadians will be in Poland. Also in the Mediterranean, combat units are being increased. Russia perceives the activity as a threat, but hasn’t yet announced any countermeasures.
“At the NATO summit during July 8th-9th in Warsaw, the Alliance will adopt a massive military presence along Russia’s border. Russia is classified by NATO as a threat. NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg recently said in Washington that the US and the EU have the right in the form of NATO to defend its territories on foreign soil. Critics of this strategy believe that it’s possible this upgrade will increase significantly the danger of a conflict between the superpowers. Wednesday in Brussels, the defense ministers want the military alliance to take decisions which will then be sealed by the leaders in Poland. NATO wants to strengthen its military presence on its eastern borders significantly, and to position foreign combat troops battalions in Poland and the three Baltic states. Germany is the core of the Association in Lithuania, the British in Estonia, and the United States is expected to be that in Latvia. What remains unclear, however, is who will be sending troops to Poland.”
Trump Looks Less Dangerous than Hillary
I have never liked Trump and I took him as a joke until I started to realize that he was striking a chord with masses of people in an emotional frenzy. Having just read the biography of Dietrich Bonhoeffer, the reaction of the white middle classes in America who are seeing their quality of life slip away, seemed reminiscent of the mood of the people of Germany during the 1930s which gave way to Hitler. I immediately made the comparison as have many others since then. So let me go on record as saying that I am no fan of Donald Trump. I think many of the things his critics say about him is true and I fear what a Trump presidency might mean!
However, I fear even more what an extension of the existing order will mean because from all accounts it seems to me that the powers behind the throne in America and NATO are pushing the world to the brink of a nuclear disaster. The only way we avoid a nuclear holocaust is if somehow NATO backs down from its insistence that China and Russia submit to their one-world government control. If you want the world to face a nuclear global nuclear holocaust that ends human life on Earth, then vote for Hillary.
On the other hand, the one candidate from either party that at least rhetorically is standing opposed to the idiot neocon powers behind the throne who are ready to give Russia and China no option but to trigger nuclear war, is Donald Trump. At least one anti-Trump pundit on Bloomberg compared a Trump foreign policy to that of Eisenhower. As one who lived as a young boy during the Eisenhower years, my response to that is, “I could not be happier with an Eisenhower in the White House!”
How is Trump, at least rhetorically, standing opposed to the powers behind the throne who are moving us toward human extinction? For starters he is suggesting that the purpose for NATO, which was created to offset threats from the Soviet Union, needs to be reexamined and perhaps disassembled. He also opposes the TPP and NAFTA, both of which have more to do with extending the power of evil men like George Soros and his banking buddies to control geopolitics and rule the world than anything to do with free trade. There is reason to believe Donald Trump understands that issue because he wants to be able as a businessman to trade with foreign countries. And as Ron Paul has said, if we are interested in free trade, all we have to do is work with other countries to reduce tariffs.
But that isn’t what these so called trade deals are all about. TPP for example is an attempt to form a military alliance with Asian nations to control China in order to keep it from becoming a global economic power, since the NATO nations want that for themselves. And it seems as though NATO is ready to go to war over control of the South China Sea as well. Donald Trump has uttered some troubling rhetoric against the Chinese that I am not comfortable with. But the fact that he seems to respect national sovereignty (which is not at all respected by Obama, Clinton, Bush, or any of the other mainstream neocons) is reason enough for me to vote for Trump over Clinton.
Whether you can agree with me or not regarding who you vote for in November, I hope you will stop to think realistically about the very real threat to the continued existence of humanity that is being pushed by the neoconservatives who are threatening the sovereignty of both Russia and China and as such forcing a global nuclear confrontation.
Two articles from Zero Hedge that I read recently (“Exposing Hillbama's Big Lie: The Central Issue In The U.S. Presidential Campaign” by Eric Zuesse, and “he Power of ‘Nyet”, by Dmitry Orlov) required me to speak out about my political views rather than focus entirely on gold share profits are noted below. I’m sure you would agree that the issue of human extinction from the planet should take priority over whether I’m getting wealthy or poor from my gold stock portfolio.
The article by Eric Zuesse suggests there is virtually no hope for avoiding a nuclear holocaust. The second article, which was written by Dmitry Orlov who has been a guest in the past on my radio show, is a bit more optimistic. Much as Michael Oliver sees that the world may be able to avoid a nuclear war and applauds not only Russia and China for its resistance but also the U.K., France, and growing resistance movements throughout the western world against the existing inanity of NATO. If an objective truth were told by our mainstream media and if the masses in the western world sought the truth rather than their own narrow-minded short-term pleasure, life could be happier and more productive for everyone rather than for an elite few. But alas, objective truth is not what a sinful, broken world seeks. Self deception and the acceptance of lies from the Father of Lies, is more the norm. Jeff Deist, who was Ron Paul’s Chief of Staff, impressed on me the fact that not only our government as a whole but each individual segment of government whether it be the Department of Defense, the IRS, the Department of Homeland Security, or any other segment, all are completely out of control and cannot be reined in. No one is in charge, including the President. It indeed seems to be a world careening out of control.
Applying what I believe to be true, unless something changes between now and November, I expect to vote Trump. I think we are facing the serious possibility of human extinction as the western world is sinking into a financial hell hole, leading it into this desperate global aggression. However, as a Christian who believes as the founders of America did that the Creator of the universe is in charge, I place my ultimate hope there.
