I went to the bank for other reasons, and since I was there, I asked for 10k in cash. They said I had to order it. I asked what they could give me, and they replied that there was a limit of 2k. I said I just wanted the cash in case of power grid failures, cyberattacks, and war. The bank teller said that is why everyone is asking for cash these days.
Then speaking to bullion dealers, they said people are coming in to sell their silver bullion coins from Russia. They said people are panicking and do not want to have silver bullion. Quite astonishing, if I do say.
I then ran and bought a spare laptop just in case for as this all continues, chips will vanish, and computers will end up like cars — selling for over list when you can even get them.
Britain and Europe are flirting now with the same actions the US took during World War II – they are coming dangerously close to now creating internment camps for Russians based solely upon their nationality. Britain froze billions of Russian oligarchs’ assets and issued travel bans effectively coming close to creating imprisonment. The Chelsea Russian owner, Roman Abramovich, Oleg Deripaska, and five other Russian “oligarchs” which are now defined as anyone with money, who are worth £15 billion, have been banned from entering the country by the UK for having “blood on their hands.”
The British government has announced sanctions against Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich and six other oligarchs and Secretary of State Liz Truss said the “blood of the Ukrainian people” is on the hands of those associated with Putin.
The stupidity of politicians like Truss is just off the charts. They live in a fantasy world where they think this is a one-sided game and they are demigods of unlimited power. Russia can simply;y seize all Russian assets held by foreigners. These morons are clueless as to the COMPLEXITY that exists in the world economy. When Russia fell into the hands of the Communists, that ended trade with the West. Russia became isolated but its own choice and thus there was a wave of shortages and economic crisis that swept through Europe. Europeans were forced to turn to America for food and the cost of importing food from great distances led to civil unrest, rising tempers, and that all combined into World War II.
This is the worst possible crop of world leaders I think in human history. Even in Japan, they have suddenly banned ponytails on girls because they excite some men sexually. I suppose they never looked at people having all sorts of different fetishes. They say a foot fetish is very common. So perhaps all feet must be covered and then what is next – burkas because just the sight of a girl may excite a boy?
Welcome to the world of Political Insanity. There seems to be no end in sight. It is politicians who have the blood of billions who have died in the name of their wars over the last 6,000 years. In Hitler’s speech declaring war on the United States he motivated the crowd saying:
“In September 1939 I assured you that neither force nor arms nor time would overcome Germany. I will assure my enemies that neither force of arms nor time nor any internal doubts, can make us waver in the performance of our duty.”
It is always the politicians who spill the blood of society. This is by no means a one-sided event. There is blame that history will attribute to all sides.

There are very few things in this world that can leave me almost speechless. This is one of them.
Dropping all pretense of their hidden ideology, Reuters is reporting exclusively that Facebook and Instagram have modified their terms and conditions to permit advocacy and support for the Nazi party in Ukraine (Azov Regiment), and they have modified their violence terms to allow platform users to advocate for death to Russians.
It would be odd if Big Tech were generically against all Nazi’s, while U.S. military advisors are in Ukraine training specific Azov Regiment Nazi’s to fight Russians. The Javelin missile system, pictured above, is what Ukraine is using to defeat Russian tanks and armored vehicles. The U.S. is sending the Ukraine military thousands of them. Apparently arming and training Nazis is okay right now.
The Reuter’s article notes: “Emails also showed that Meta would allow praise of the right-wing Azov battalion, which is normally prohibited, in a change first reported by The Intercept. Meta spokesman Joe Osborne previously said the company was “for the time being, making a narrow exception for praise of the Azov Regiment strictly in the context of defending Ukraine, or in their role as part of the Ukraine National Guard.” (link)
March 10 (Reuters) – Meta Platforms (FB.O) will allow Facebook and Instagram users in some countries to call for violence against Russians and Russian soldiers in the context of the Ukraine invasion, according to internal emails seen by Reuters on Thursday, in a temporary change to its hate speech policy.
The social media company is also temporarily allowing some posts that call for death to Russian President Vladimir Putin or Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko in countries including Russia, Ukraine and Poland, according to internal emails to its content moderators.
“As a result of the Russian invasion of Ukraine we have temporarily made allowances for forms of political expression that would normally violate our rules like violent speech such as ‘death to the Russian invaders.’ We still won’t allow credible calls for violence against Russian civilians,” a Meta spokesperson said in a statement.
The calls for the leaders’ deaths will be allowed unless they contain other targets or have two indicators of credibility, such as the location or method, one email said, in a recent change to the company’s rules on violence and incitement.
The temporary policy changes on calls for violence to Russian soldiers apply to Armenia, Azerbaijan, Estonia, Georgia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Romania, Russia, Slovakia, and Ukraine, according to one email.
[…] “We are issuing a spirit-of-the-policy allowance to allow T1 violent speech that would otherwise be removed under the Hate Speech policy when: (a) targeting Russian soldiers, EXCEPT prisoners of war, or (b) targeting Russians where it’s clear that the context is the Russian invasion of Ukraine (e.g., content mentions the invasion, self-defense, etc.),” it said in the email.

For almost fifteen years we have been outlining the connection of the Obama and EU ideologues to Nazism. This is something that everyone associated with the Democrat Party have denied repeatedly. Now, all of a sudden, Facebook and Instagram, the support system in Big Tech for the ideology of Democrats, is openly admitting a change in position allowing public support for Nazism on their platforms.

Oh dear, the White House sent Kamala Harris to mend fences with Poland after five days of state department diplomatic bumbling over fighter jets for Ukraine. Yes, the result is exactly what you might expect as highlighted in a few segments shared below:
In the first segment, Kamala Harris delivers her prepared remarks, meaning she actually planned and prepped to deliver this {Direct Rumble Link}. No one is quite sure what she just said, but everyone nodded in appreciation of the word assembly. WATCH:
“I am here, standing here on the northern flank — on the eastern flank talking about what we have in terms of the eastern flank and our NATO Allies and what is at stake at this very moment. What is at stake this very moment are some of the guiding principles around the NATO Alliance and, in particular, the issue and the importance of defending sovereignty and territorial integrity, in this case, of Ukraine.
Oh, but wait, it gets worse. In the segment below, Harris was asked a question by the assembled press pool about the plight of refugees from Ukraine. Mrs. Harris answers the question with a very cringeworthy and inappropriate round of laughter.

Polish President Andrzej Duda used the opportunity of a joint press availability with Kamala Harris to correct the record and diplomatically push back against Secretary of State Anthony Blinken for making up the “green light” story {Background Here}.
During the Q&A, Harris was asked about what alternatives there were for the Polish fighter jets that have now been taken off the table in the material support discussions for Ukraine. When it came time for his reply, President Duda stated:
Duda: “Let me say something more. We accept that [Ukraine] have the right to demand this assistance from the international community. They can demand this support from NATO. We are providing them humanitarian assistance and material assistance the best we can. We are trying to do our best. Some expectations were addressed in a very strong and unequivocal way, also towards us — towards Poland. However, we are members of the North Atlantic Alliance. And as far as security-related issues are concerned, we have to look at these not only through our own lens — through the prism of the security of Poland — but we also have to adopt the perspective of the security of NATO as a whole. So, in a nutshell, we have to be a responsible member of the North Atlantic Alliance. That is why there were requests addressed to us. Those requests were addressed to us by the Ukrainian side and also, to a certain extent, by the media.
Notice those last three words, “by the media.” The calls from media were an outcome of U.S. Secretary of State Anthony Blinken saying Poland has a “green light” to send fighter jets to Ukraine – without ever discussing the issue with Ukraine in advance. Poland was blindsided.
We behaved in such a way as a reliable member of NATO should behave — a member of NATO who does not want to expose NATO to any difficult situation. On the other hand, we, as members of NATO, also wanted and want to look for ways of support for the fight in Ukraine. And that is why we formulated statements, together with the Polish government — so myself as president, together with the Polish government. And this statement or this declaration was announced by the Polish Minister of Foreign Affairs. It talked about the Polish possibilities — military possibilities of assisting Ukraine. Simply, we decided to put those jets at the disposal of NATO, not expecting anything in return, because we stressed very clearly that, as a gap filler for the donated equipment, we were able to buy something that we would need as a replacement. And we, ourselves, we’re ready to provide our equipment free of charge. But we wanted NATO as a whole to make a common decision so that Poland remains a credible member of NATO, not a country who decides on its own on important issues which impact the security of NATO as a whole — which would impact the security of all members of NATO — also our neighbors who are part of NATO — members of NATO. Thank you.
Secretary Blinken put Poland in a terrible place with their statement implying, directly and intentionally implying, that Poland was sending MiG-29 fighter jets to Ukraine. Poland had no intent of doing that, and the conversation had never taken place.
On Sunday, Secretary Blinken was trying to create a NATO conflict with Russia by using Poland. President Duda puts Blinken in his place by saying, “a reliable member of NATO” would never “behave” in such a manner as to put NATO into such a “difficult position.”
It’s a remarkable situation that unfolded. Again, the media is ignoring it.

In the olden days this would be akin to picking up a redacted Yellow Pages phone directory.
Comrades, the Ministry of Public Information, DuckDuckGo Division, is making modifications to the internet search engine results in order to protect us from dis-information, mis-information and mal-information. Wrongthinking perspectives will no longer be acceptable.
“Vladimir Putin doesn’t want me to be President. He doesn’t want me to be our nominee. If you’re wondering why — it’s because I’m the only person in this field who’s ever gone toe-to-toe with him.”
— Joe Biden on Twitter (@JoeBiden) February 21, 2020
People ponder if Putin would have invaded under a second Trump Administration. It is true that Russia went on the offensive in 2008 and 2014 under President Obama while Joe was VP. Putin himself said tensions between the US and Russia were at an all-time low once Biden entered the office. Biden referred to the Russian leader as a “killer,” as if he did not watch Syrian airstrikes on civilians during his first stint in the White House.
Trump has come under harsh criticism for complimenting Putin in the past, and going as far as to call him a “genius.” Putin also offered similar praise of Trump, as noted in the NBC News interview above. Putin sees Trump as “radically different” from Biden as he is not part of the establishment. Putin noted that Biden spent his entire adult life as a politician, a “career man,” and offered no praise for Biden as a person or world leader. He subtly and rhetorically said to think of how many years Joe spent in the Senate as a puppet of the state.
It is also true that Trump wanted to remove the US from NATO. However, he wanted to remove the US from NATO as other member states were failing to make contributions. Trump felt as if NATO needed the US but not the other way around. Other countries began increasing their NATO contributions as soon as the US indicated it would leave. Putin, naturally, would have been thrilled to see the US back away from NATO, but he is an intelligent man who knows that the US would remain loyal to its allies.
Biden is a useful idiot in Putin’s mind. Trump was “a character” and an unpredictable opponent. The main thing here is that Trump treated Russia like a major player on the international stage. He was willing to have diplomatic conversations with Putin, Kim-Jong Un, and others who the West mainly wrote off. Diplomatic conversations should have taken place years ago. Russia’s concerns about the Minsk Agreement and the Donbas area should have been taken seriously. Instead, everyone excommunicated Putin while relying on him for energy. He was strategic about when he chose to strike.
QUESTION: Thank you for sharing your views. I am in Iraq. I flew to Athens to see you speak there a couple of years ago. I understand you try to provide your best interpretation of what the computer is forecasting. Here in Iraq, there are food riots starting to take place. Is this one of the fundamentals behind the computer’s forecast of rising civil unrest globally?
AC
ANSWER: Yes, I remember you. The computer has shown that this would be a cycle in commodities from 2020.05 into 2024 but it clarified this would be caused by shortages rather than a speculative boom. Simultaneously, it projected a rise in war and civil unrest simultaneously during this cycle. Those forecasts have been correct and I doubt anyone can argue against that fact.
I do try my personal best to interpret it correctly. I too am only human which is why I try to distinguish my opinion from the forecast. Because this cycle is a combination of war and commodity shortages that were set in motion by COVID, the risk of the Ukrainian war escalating out of control is serious.
The fact that the Pentagon refused to allow Poland to send jets and has refused to provide a no-fly zone despite the nonsense Zelensky, implies to me the US military is not trying to start WWIII despite all the stupid actions coming from Biden & co. Ukraine and Russia supply 30% of the world grain supply and the bulk of that goes to the Middle East. The longer this war goes on, the greater the food disturbances and that will only feed into continuous riots.
We need to follow the money trail behind Zelensky to get to the truth. He does not give up on trying to start WWIII. The question is why? Anyone with has a brain understands that if NATO grant any of his requests, then we are in an all-out war and China will be with Russia. That is not a happy ending.
For those who are not aware of the dark side of Ukraine during World War II and the Ukrainian Nazis who also engaged in the ethnic cleansing of Jews, Poles, and Russians, I suggest taking the time to watch this film.
