פעמיים הפוך עם ארז תדמור ועו"ד מיכאל דבורין - 20-01-23 שעה שנייה

Dr. Adam Stulberg provides his analysis of the situation in Ukraine which has become a war of attrition characterized by constant surprise for all participants. The Russian military is learning from its mistakes. He discusses and quantifies the use of red lines by Russia, how they can be interpreted as hollow threats, but how they can also be understood as a different and opaque approach by Moscow to competitive bargaining which blurs lines between peace and war and increases uncertainty, which is doubly dangerous. The Russians see sanctions as part of a new definition of war (e.g. information, energy diplomacy, hybrid, next generation) and thus far have solidly absorbed the shocks. Energy is becoming less and less a potent instrument of political and strategic influence. Domestic politics is going to be playing a bigger role in the war going forward given the elections taking place in many countries.

Adam Stulberg: On Russian Red Lines, Failure of Sanctions, & Energy Losing Potency as a Weapon #355

Dr. Vladimir Kozin discusses the Ukraine conflict and explains that Kiev and NATO are the aggressors against the Russian Federation. The U.S. is threatening the use of nuclear weapons on NATO's eastern flank and has abrogated all arms control agreements. There is little no communication between either side. The Pentagon has stated this war of attrition will continue for at least five years. The western and eastern blocs are fast approaching a Third World War. He comments on Western "state terrorism" (e.g. Nord Stream), Color Revolutions, and believes COVID-19 was a U.S. biological weapon. The West seeks a strategic Russian defeat but Dr. Kozin believes Moscow will win.

Vladimir Kozin: Western & Eastern Blocs Fast Approaching Third World War #358

Col. Grant Newsham discusses the changing world order which is not anything new or unprecedented. The conflict with China is primarily fought through non-kinetic and insidious means of unrestricted warfare and subversion (e.g. cultural, information, psychological, economic, cyber). Just like the U.S. and Western business helped build up Hitler and the Nazi regime, the same has happened with China. The Biden Administration is the most seriously compromised administration when it comes to China. He comments on COVID19 and the population control system (e.g. Social Credit). China has undergone the fastest military buildup in history, surpassing the U.S. in some areas. There are real possibilities of a war breaking out, but Beijing will attempt to achieve its goals through political warfare.

Col. Grant Newsham: War With China a Real Possibility, But Political Warfare is Preferred #360

Economic Hit Man (EHM) John Perkins discusses his new book and how the Chinese have appropriated the EHM model for global takeover. He argues that the use of the EHM model by both the Anglosphere and Beijing is creating a death economy. He sees the New Cold War as a race to disaster. However, China's model is different, it's got a great growth story to tell, and it doesn't impose draconian conditions like the West does. He discusses meeting luminaries such as Nursultan Nazarbayev and Sergey Glazyev and how colonial resentment is growing against the U.S. as Washington loses hegemony and China takes over. But this is all leading to a global death economy and we need to change the system.

About John Perkins
As Chief Economist at a major international consulting firm, John Perkins advised the World Bank, United Nations, IMF, U.S. Treasury Department, Fortune 500 corporations, and countries in Africa, Asia, Latin America, and the Middle East. He worked directly with heads of state and CEOs of major companies.

John’s classic, Confessions of an Economic Hit Man (2004) spent 73 weeks on the New York Times bestseller list and has been published in more than 35 languages. It was a groundbreaking exposé of the clandestine operations that created the current global crises. The New Confessions of an Economic Hit Man (2016) brought the story of economic hit men and jackal assassins up to date at that time and chillingly home to the U.S. It went on to provide practical strategies for each of us to transform the failing global death economy into a regenerative life economy. The two books have sold more than 1.9 million copies.

In addition to economics, politics and global intrigue, John has also written books on indigenous cultures and what they can teach us about sustainability and transformation, including The World Is As You Dream It, Spirit of the Shuar, and The Stress-Free Habit.

John has lectured at Harvard, Oxford, and more than 50 other universities around the world. He has been featured on ABC, NBC, CNN, NPR, A&E, the History Channel, Time, The New York Times, The Washington Post, Cosmopolitan, Elle, Der Spiegel, and many other publications, as well as in numerous documentaries including The End of Poverty?, Zeitgeist Addendum, and Apology of an Economic Hit Man.

He is a founder and board member of Dream Change and The Pachamama Alliance, nonprofit organizations devoted to establishing a world that future generations will want to inherit. He was awarded the Lennon Ono Grant for Peace, and Rainforest Action Network Challenging Business As Usual Award, among other accolades.

John Perkins: China & West Are Both Creating Death Economy Using Hit Man Model #361

להתעורר על צד ימין עם ארז תדמור - 16-04-23

Andrew Henderson of NomadCapitalist.com discusses why he renounced U.S. citizenship and exited the American Empire. Almost a third of the world's economy is under U.S. sanctions and so countries are banding together to form new systems (e.g. de-dollarization). The West is going in the wrong direction and seeing greater autocracy as a result of the desperate clutches of the elites. Andrew is optimistic there will always be a place to escape to and discusses obtaining multiple passports and residencies, different geographies and jurisdictions, and work, banking, and investment options. We also talk México.

About Andrew Henderson
Andrew Henderson is the Founder and CEO of Nomad Capitalist, the world's leading offshore consulting firm dedicated to helping clients make informed decisions on the best countries to invest, start a business and live in.

Henderson grew up around the broadcasting industry (his father hosted a talk show alongside his financial services business). As a teenager, Henderson made the ill-advised journey into the radio broadcasting business. As luck would have it, his radio broadcasting business turned out to be a success. By age 22, he was making eight figures in annual revenue. Within a few years, his radio broadcasting business was running on autopilot, and he was traveling around the world at least half of the time. By the the time he was 28, he sold that original radio business for eight-figures. Andrew then founded the Nomad Capitalist to help people increase their personal freedom and to help them improve their financial situations and intelligently diversify their lives.

Helping people save $280,000 a year in taxes, get a second passport in a matter of months to get started on building the business of their dreams, and give their children educational opportunities they never would’ve achieved otherwise via a citizenship by descent program are all examples of work he's recently done with this mission in mind. He's spent the last twelve years meticulously traveling the world with the purpose of finding the best legal strategies and on the ground knowledge that works.
