Geopolitics & Empire

Alasdair Macleod explains how major central banks are completely insolvent, the ECB being in the most trouble, and that this dire situation is yet to be uncovered by the markets. He thinks the financial war between the West and Russia as a result of Ukraine may be what pops the debt bubble. He discusses the rise of the World Island (China and Russia) and the retreat of the West. China and Russia have the gold, the West doesn't. World War III is a financial war taking place on a virtual battleground and he feels we've run out of time. He provides some suggestions on weathering the financial storm.

In those days, trainees learned everything: from making the tea, to corporate finance, to evaluating and dealing in equities and bonds. They learned rapidly through experience about things as diverse as mining shares and general economics. It was excellent training, and within nine years he had risen to become senior partner of his firm. Subsequently, he held positions at director level in investment management, and worked as a mutual fund manager. Mr. Macleod also worked at a bank in Guernsey as an executive director. For most of his 40 years in the finance industry, he has been de-mystifying macro-economic events for his investing clients. The accumulation of this experience has convinced him that unsound monetary policies are the most destructive weapon governments use against the common man. Accordingly, his mission is to educate and inform the public in layman’s terms what governments do with money and how to protect themselves from the consequences. *Podcast intro music is from the song "The Queens Jig" by "Musicke & Mirth" from their album "Music for Two Lyra Viols": http://musicke-mirth.de/en/recordings.html (available on iTunes or Amazon)

Dr. Paolo Urio discusses the roots of American Empire, how the U.S. has always been an 'aristocratic republic,' and how since inception it has used bully and provocation tactics, planning to conquer both the northern and southern continent, which demonstrates the essence of U.S. foreign policy. Washington lacks the capacity to read the intentions of the other side and how America's position in the international system has long since declined. BRICS and initiatives like Belt & Road will soon surpass American dominance and be able to attract other countries seeking to escape U.S. Empire. Dr. Urio suggests that historically China never wanted to conquer the world. In the new multipolar world, the U.S. will not go away, but it will need to change the way it manages its international relations.

Hard-hitting investigative journalist Dilyana Gaytandzhieva discusses her groundbreaking work uncovering diplomatically protected international arms traffic from Western governments to terrorists as well as her discovery of Pentagon-funded bio-laboratories scattered throughout Eurasia. She learned how the whole of Eastern Europe was involved in a network for arming terrorists with weapons paid for by the USA, UAE, and Saudi Arabia, all under diplomatic cover. She visited numerous bio-labs and found they were located in residential areas where people subsequently complained of pollution, death, and disease. She even interrogated Robert Kadlec. The Pentagon funded 11 bio-labs in Ukraine and has been seeking the DNA and blood samples specifically of Russian nationals. We discuss media censorship and the latest development in Europe where questioning the narrative now can land you in jail.

Her websites are Dilyana.bg and ArmsWatch.com. She has been carrying out explosive investigative reporting from on the ground on biological warfare, bio labs, as well as the supply of arms by the West to Al-Qaeda and ISIS terrorists. Thank you for joining Geopolitics & Empire, Dilyana. How are you doing? Dilyana Gaytandzhieva: Thank you for having me, and I much appreciate the interest that you are taking in my stories. Geopolitics & Empire: Your work is amazing and I'm amazed that you haven't done more interviews. But before we start, I would tell listeners as well, if they want to get more of a backstory, they can go to some of the Geopolitics & Empire archives where, for example, I spoke with Jeffrey Kaye and he was discussing US bio warfare against North Korea and China in the 1950s. And of course, as well, there is my interview with Dr. Francis Boyle from 2020 where we discussed biological weapons. Dilyana, before we get to the bio warfare and the current events, you ... Earlier in your work, you uncovered a covert international weapons shipment network which worked through diplomatic flights to arm terrorists in the Middle East and Africa, and you say this was organized by US Southern Command, I think. SOCOM? Saudi Arabia and the UAE among other actors, I'm sure. Many of us have long known how the West has funded extremists, Al-Qaeda and ISIS.

Dmitry Orlov discusses the Ukraine situation and Russia undoing 30 years worth of accumulated damage, while the West punishes itself attempting to thwart Moscow. He discusses the legality of Russia's military incursion which is absolutely necessary in terms of its security. Putin's goals are to militarily neutralize Ukraine, get rid of the Nazi extremists, and form a new legal structure. Regarding energy, the U.S. can't go without Russia for more than a few months, Russia can go without the U.S. practically forever. Western hysteria threatens escalation of the conflict. Dmitry reveals the mystery of why Putin sits at the far end of the table. He feels the U.S. is destroying the dollar which will destroy American living standards. Western leaders are losing their electorate and he's concerned of the mental damage that has occurred throughout the West and thinks living in a place of social cohesion will be important.

Orlov believes collapse will be the result of huge military budgets, government deficits, an unresponsive political system and declining oil production. Orlov was born in Leningrad (now Saint Petersburg) and moved to the United States at the age of 12. He has a BS in Computer Engineering and an MA in Applied Linguistics. He was an eyewitness to the collapse of the Soviet Union over several extended visits to his Russian homeland between the late 1980s and mid-1990s. In 2005 and 2006 Orlov wrote a number of articles comparing the collapse-preparedness of the U.S. and the Soviet Union published on small Peak Oil related sites. Orlov’s article “Closing the ‘Collapse Gap’: the USSR was better prepared for collapse than the US” was very popular at EnergyBulletin.Net. Orlov’s book Reinventing Collapse:The Soviet Example and American Prospects, published in 2008, further details his views. Discussing the book in 2009, in a piece in The New Yorker, Ben McGrath wrote that Orlov describes “superpower collapse soup” common to both the U.S. and the Soviet Union: “a severe shortfall in the production of crude oil, a worsening foreign-trade deficit, an oversized military budget, and crippling foreign debt.” Orlov told interviewer McGrath that in recent months financial professionals had begun to make up more of his audience, joining “back-to-the-land types,” “peak oilers,” and those sometimes derisively called “doomers”. In his review of the book, commentator Thom Hartmann writes that Orlov holds that the Soviet Union hit a “soft crash” because of centralized planning in: housing, agriculture, and transportation left an infrastructure private citizens could co-opt so that no one had to pay rent...

Cynthia Chung does a deep dive on the roots of the dystopian technocracy and scientific dictatorship that ruling elites are attempting to bring about. She covers the waterfront with the Huxleys, Darwin, Wells, Russell, and more. We get into Blavatsky, Bailey, and Crowley. She discusses how they have long desired a scientific dictatorship to curb the population as well as human creativity. Yuval Harari is a disciple of H.G. Wells and Bertrand Russell is very important to understand in the context of The Great Reset which is centered around transhumanism and cybernetics.

David McHutchon is the leader of the newly founded Scottish political party Restore Scotland, whose aims include: Scottish independence, liberty of the individual, the sanctity of human life, and the wellbeing of the people of Scotland. He gives us a crash course on Scottish history, how the Scottish National Party (SNP) blew the 2014 referendum on independence, how all current political parties have become indistinguishable from each other, and how the government is actively seeking to restrict civil liberties. He discusses the dual struggle of Scotland becoming free from Britain as well as staying out of the EU and NATO. He discusses globalism and how elites are attempting to condition the population to accept absurdities and the jackboot. He emphasizes the importance of action.

Alexandra Marshall gives us an update on how The Great Reset is faring in Australia, where it is struggling to keep its narrative alive as people are increasingly refusing to follow health orders. The biggest problem Covid has revealed is the shift in Western democracies to embracing collectivist thought. Australia is on the verge of passing the WEF's Digital ID legislation which is an extension of the Covid surveillance system and is digital fascism. Russia and China are not pets of the WEF and are happy to let Klaus & Co. destroy the West with their program. China is determined to be the world's superpower, meanwhile Russia wants to let Beijing fight the West to weaken both. Well-meaning conservatives misunderstand what Putin's Russia actually is. She's hopeful we can recover from the damage done by Davos.

Johnny Vedmore discusses how he feels one phase of COVID1984 is coming to an end and more people are beginning to question things. He gives us a deep dive on Cobra Commander Klaus Schwab and the Malthusian eugenics of Davos and the Club of Rome. WEF has run Britain for the last 20 years. The Young Global Leaders have taken over every single position of power. We're late to the party, we're done, we have let them run us through. He gives his take on the nature of the pandemic, the Wellcome Trust, and believes intelligence agencies are really running the show, that there are no more remaining independent actors (e.g. multipolar world).

Cory Morningstar gives us a report from the front lines of the Great Reset in Canada. Everything the media says is a lie and you can forget about the whole left-right paradigm, this is a global class war and descent into fascism. Covid has been a huge catalyst and cover to unroll this huge reset of the global economic system, a project of Prince Charles. The British Commonwealth has just partnered with WHO to vaccinate the entire planet by July 2022 and is working with the World Bank in a huge campaign to get Digital Identity to everyone by 2030. The vaccine is a portal to the Digital ID. We're going into global governance and the Digital ID is the umbilical cord to the Smart City. The conduit to the 4IR is your smartphone, for now. The eugenicist aspect of the program is simply a business decision (e.g. pension crisis). What you can access will be dependent on your level of compliance. Freedom, health, and your immune system will become a service or subscription.

Daniel McAdams returns to discuss the Ukraine crisis. Media coverage of the situation is absolutely abysmal and cartoonish, taking the role of stenographers for the intelligence community. The current crisis was precipitated by U.S. interventionism in the form of the 2014 Orange color revolution. Russia has a right to be concerned about existential issues and having Ukraine in NATO would objectively raise a serious concern for Moscow, especially in light of an openly hostile West. Blinken did his best Colin Powell presentation at the UN (e.g. Iraq WMDs) and there is a huge danger a false flag could lead to hostilities. This could be the beginning of the end for NATO. We're seeing the tail end of the U.S. Empire.

We'll be talking foreign policy in US, Russia, Ukraine, World War III. It's been about two years since we last spoke, how is the new normal life in Texas? Daniel McAdams: Well, thanks again for having me, by the way, it's great to be back on your great program. And Texas, we had a few bad months but the governor here looked over to Florida and realized that he actually could find a little bit of courage and so it's basically been normal here for quite a long time. There are certainly some messages of the old regime with masks and people being nervous but basically you wouldn't notice anything here, I think, these days. Geopolitics & Empire: Yeah, I've escaped to Mexico. I know a lot of people are escaping to Mexico but I do have a plan B or C that I've thought about going back to the US and the only places that I would go would be somewhere like Texas or Florida or similar such states. So to talk about Ukraine and Russia, so where was the invasion of Ukraine by Russia? Daniel McAdams: Well, it hasn't happened as it was scheduled. In fact, somebody I think it was Garland Nixon posted a funny little tweet saying that, "Now the US is going to sanction Russia for not invading on the right schedule." So that may well be what happens, it hasn't invaded on their schedule. In fact, off camera, we were talking about a tweet that you retweeted from a guy I studied when I was in grad school, Edward Luttwak, who made the great point that the US intelligence community is claiming that Russia is about to have a full scale invasion of not just Eastern Ukraine but Ukraine and Kiev. And he said that the reckless gambling would go against the entire history of Putin's behavior that we've seen so far and he says, "I'm not buying it." So when someone of his stature, who's not in anyone's real camp says something like that,
