Episode notes
City of London as Financial Kill Chain
- The City of London operates as a financial kill chain, extracting wealth historically and globally since 1688.
- This system acts more like a corporate hostile takeover than a national government, controlling assets through debt manipulation.
Seven Steps of Financial Kill Chain
- The financial kill chain uses a seven-step process to cripple a nation's economic sovereignty through infiltration, debt entrapment, asset identification, economic destabilization, debt-for-asset swaps, extraction, and collapse.
- This method systematically exploits national assets and debt to control and eventually abandon the host nations.
Putin's Rise Explained
- Putin was elevated because he is fiercely loyal to the Russian civilization, incorruptible, and extremely competent.
- His ability to unify Russian peoples and reject foreign financial control was key to breaking the financial kill chain on Russia.
