This is the music for that one. The video is released on vendors, made Shopify, can't sit to add a "Extend" hit down. Start to add a test to the whole to fill in an Euro Pomona. Off Shopify.de/record. In 2024, you made 3 predictions that have come perfectly true, like Trump would start a war with Iran. And you've made a series of new predictions. Yes. And I'll explain each prediction one by one. Okay. So first, I predict that but we'll get a third term. But isn't this constitutionally illegal? It's not. The president now has emerged in the world.

So he can actually delay the election. My second prediction is Iran is another forever war, and the United States will institute a natural draft. Meaning that you're between 18 to 24 and a marathon in your mail. You'll be unlikely to put into the draft system. And they just pass a law that says, "I'm sorry in December, you'll be unlikely registered." Which means you'll be obliged to go and fight, exactly. Next, the world will move towards an AI surveillance state. So if you do online, it's being recorded to figure out how to control you.

So this is most controversial prediction. This is pretty bad. And I'll explain why. And also, I will tell you why it's working only lead to a war with wheat. Why?

It's very strong possibility that the American Empire will collapse. And also, I'll show you what the Russians will do and how the foreign bankers are controlling you.

I'm not owned by anybody. That's what you think. So let's talk about that.

Guys, I've got a favor to ask before this episode begins. The algorithm, if you follow a show, deliver you. The best episodes from that show, very prominently in your feed. So when we have our best episodes on this show, the most shared episodes, the most rated episodes, I would love you to know. And the simple way for you to know that is to hit that follow button. But also, it's the simple, easy, free thing that you can do to help us make this show better. And I would be hugely grateful if you could take a minute on the app you're listening to this one right now and hit that follow button. Thank you so, so, so much.

Professor, again, there's so much going on in the wild at the moment that it's quite confusing for an ordinary person like me and you've blown up across the internet because you've been able to demystify all of all of this craziness. And also, because in 2024, you made three predictions that have come perfectly true.

Some might say unfortunately, unfortunately, yes. What were those three predictions?

My first prediction was that Trump would win in November, 2024.

The second prediction is that he would start a war against Iran. The third prediction is that United States would lose this war, and in losing this war, this would radically reshape the geopolitical landscape. How did you know that Trump would start a war with Iran? The simple answer is this. The United States have invaded Iran because it has no choice in the matter. If it were not to invade Iran, it would lose its empire. Its empire is based purely on the US dollar, the petruder, which is a positive scheme.

If it did not invade Iran, then people would choose not to trade with it anymore. People would choose to not buy US trestries. Why? For a longer time, this system worked fine. But then in February, 2022, Russia invaded Ukraine. That was not the issue. The issue was the American response. The American response was to sanction Russia, and we moved Russia from the swift global payment system.

It also ordered Europeans to freeze over $20 billion in Russian assets.

And this is a problem. These very bases for having the US dollar as the global reserve currency is that it would be made politically neutral.

It the Americans guaranteed seamless, completely neutral in a national exchange. So if this trend continues, right?

If you don't like anything about Russia, Russia would take over Ukraine. And Russia then would put alliance with China and Iran. If you look at these three countries on a map, Russia, China, and Iran, this is the entire Asian high net. And then what they can do is this. They can say, okay, the United States is a bully.

They forced us to play by the rules.

So let's not play with the United States anymore. Let's just trade amongst ourselves. And then what they can do is, they can build a Eurasian railway system connecting Russia, Iran, and China together. And then what this would do is negate American sea power, because it's American ships that control and protect the oceans. And then what happened is the world, Europe, Middle East, Africa, India, East Asia, would look at the Sweden block and take themselves. Wow, these guys, the Russians, Iranians, and Chinese, they use gold as their medium of exchange.

Gold is valuable. The Americans, on the other hand, use your dollars as the medium of exchange, which is not valuable.

So am I better off with the American system of this new brick system?

What's bricks? It's an acronym. It stands for Brazil, Russia, India, South Africa, China. So I'm already thinking, because Iran, Russia, and China were colluding. It threatened US dominance, which is driven by the world using the dollar as the primary currency for trading. That's correct. Okay. So they thought they needed to invade, because then they can control more of the Middle East. Right. So by attacking you, Red, something's happened.

The first thing that happened is that China is now cut off from Middle East energy.

China, we see anywhere between 50 to 6% of its energy needs from the Middle East. Not just Iran, but also Qatar, and Saudi Arabia. A lot of people say that, "Therit today, it's reliant on renewables, solar, wind, and that's true to certain extent."

Remember that China is an industrial powerhouse. So it needs energy from everywhere and everyone.

So the fact that China is losing all this energy from the Middle East, resents China with a long term strategic vulnerability. That's the first thing that happens. So the second thing that happens is that Europe is not a trouble. Because of the Russia's invasion of Ukraine, Russia energy was sanctioned. And so we like more on the Middle East for its energy needs, especially Qatar.

And now, Europe has lost all of this oil. So then you have Japan and South Korea, these two powerful East Asia economies, are also reliant on the Middle East force energy.

So now question is, if you're not getting your energy from the Middle East, where can you get your energy from? And there's only two answers, either Russia or the United States. Russia is at war and what's happening is the Ukrainian drones are attacking Russian oil refineries and export hubs. So the world in the short term has no choice but to look to America for its energy needs. And what did Trump do recently? He took over Venezuela, which has the world's greatest oil reserves.

He's threatening Canada, he's threatening guerilla, Mexico, Colombia. If Trump controls the entire Western hemisphere, the entire world has to beg Trump for energy and resources. And it saves both the US dollar as well as the American Empire.

So as part of your prediction in 2024, I believe it was, you said that the US would lose this war. Why did you predict that the US will lose this war with Iran?

Because the American society does not have the global will, does not have the manufacture capacity, does not have the risk tolerance to fight this war in Iran.

Basically, America wants to fight this war as cheaply, as easily and as quickly as possible.

Right, so Trump really fought that. If I sent my airplanes to strike to Iran and kill the Adatola, it would just surrender. There was literally his plan going into this war. He paid no attention to the culture. He paid no attention to the history of the Iranian people.

Yeah, up to you, no respect for the nation.

And when you do that, when you respect your opponent, when you underestimate your opponent, when you yourself are not willing to commit to the fight, you're going to lose.

So is Iran's game just to draw this out as long as they possibly can?

How they, you know, because he's taken out the leaders. And then you also think that Trump thought that just if I've just blown the leader, then everything will sort of regenerate itself and will be fine. What was the sort of fundamental misunderstanding? There's a lot of confusion as to how this war started. Even today, no one actually knows how this war started.

But I think that Trump given his personality. He was convinced that if he killed the leadership of Iran, then they would have no choice but to surrender. And his proof of a concept was, of course, on June 3rd of this year, Thought of force went into Venezuela, kidnapped Maduro and they completely surrendered.

So in Joe's mind, he wanted to be play this, the Venezuelan scenario.

And he didn't realize that Iran is fundamentally different from Venezuela. The short answer is he is a reality B star. He thinks in terms of optics. He doesn't think big in terms of like geopolitical strategy. The long answer is that the American military has become very corrupt and insular institution. That is trying to generate as much conversational funding as possible in order to fund the military industrial complex.

Did he think that he was going to bone Iran, the people would rise up. They would elect a new government and that would be that. And then he could control Iran. That's exactly what he thought. So why don't you now go to the map?

All right, go ahead, show you what he got wrong. Okay. All right, so this is a map of the Middle East.

And the first thing to notice about this map is the topography.

What does that mean? How many mountains you have? So this is what's really interesting is that the topography between Iraq and Iran are completely different.

And this is important because in 2003, the Americans invaded Iraq and they won the war in about two weeks.

And the reason why they won the war is the Americans practice something called stock and all. The idea of stock and all is that it is a military strategy that believes that if you can't off the head of the snake, the snake will die. The compilation destroyed. And so what they did was they went into Baghdad, sees Baghdad, and the regime collapsed. And the war was over. And they were able to do this because of the topography.

If you look at the map of Iraq, it's all flat, it's all desert. Meaning that if you fly in your planes, cut off the head of the snake and the war is over. There's actually no way you can defend against air strikes because you're entirely a desert. Now, let's go to the topography of Iran. And Iran, it's all mountainous. In fact, you can make the argument that Iran is a fortress.

Okay. And so the first thing is that Iran can choose to fight a war of attrition. What's a war of attrition? A war of attrition is a game of uncle. Right, a game of uncle is where we don't have enough power to destroy each other.

So what we try to do is we try to create pain points, leverage points, to force you to submit to cry uncle. Right.

So because Iran is too large, and that's 92 million people, it's impossible for the Americans.

Surely destroy Iran. So what you're trying to do instead is bomb enough targets. So that they recognize that resistance, resistance is futile and it's surrender. That's the extent of the strategy. But again, the problem with this is that one Iran is much too big.

Number two is that it is a mountain fortress, which means that you can hide y...

Right, which allows you to conduct a guerilla warfare strategy against your opponent.

And this is exactly what Iran is doing right now, where the underground missile bases are hitting inside the mountains. And then they're able to strike target for out the Middle East.

Currently, American bases, but also energy installations that are key to the American petro-dollar system.

And so it's again uncle where the Americans are trying to create as much damage as possible in the United Nations. And the Iran in response is trying to destroy as much of the global economy as possible to force the world to pressure America to call the war off. So that's the situation we are facing right now.

Second thing that Trump got wrong is how vulnerable the global economy is.

Because the Americans can close up and call the sheriff who moves. And as you can see on this map, it's a very, very narrow piece of land. It's on about 33 kilometers across. You can actually swim across the area of sort of homoose.

Okay, and what this important is that you see export 20% of the world's energy.

The chief, the chief, the Gulf Cooperative Council. Okay, so the Gulf Cooper Council are certain nations in the Middle East that align politically. So they include Qatar, Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Oman, Iran, Kuwait. It's a bit exporting energy. But not just energy, but also a lot of five products of energy production including fertilizer.

To the world primarily is Asia and India. In return, they've been getting food back. So most people don't appreciate this. But the GCC actually imports 89% of its food needs. And the reason why is that they become so rich these past few decades that the populations have blown up.

And as a result, they have to feed their population, but they don't have agricultural resources.

They also don't have water resources. And so they have two major vulnerabilities, which is food and water. And they have a lot of desolation plants around the area. And so the desolation plant. So a desolation plant takes salt water from the seas and then through an electrical chemical process,

turns it into portable water. That people can use for drinking purposes and for agricultural purposes. Okay, so as you can see, the entire area, it is extremely vulnerable to drone and missile attacks from Iran. This kind of thing that Iran has done, which Trump did not expect. He doesn't expect that the Iranians would close off a straight of removes.

And how the Iranians were able to close off the sugarful moves was just by threatening to attack any ships that wanted to cross it. And the reason why is that the ships depend on maritime insurance in order to operate. But it is a risk of very high risk of being destroyed, then you will not get it getting insurance. Okay. So it's not that the Iranians have said to the ships you can't cross.

It's just that the insurance refused to allow the ships to cross pieces to dangerous. And Trump didn't, you think they'd consider this before they started bombing Iran,

that Iran would have some leverage in shutting down such a critical piece of water for, you know,

shipping fertilizer, energy, etc., you think that they would have known this. Right. So that's a lot of people say that Trump's stupid, that Trump is hot-headed, that it was misled by this release. And there's good evidence to support this.

But I want to show you something. It's called the National Defense Strategy. All right. And so this is a document that was published by the Department of War. And it explains what the American strategy to maintain global dominance is. And in the introduction, what it says is that for too long America has been bullied by the world.

America is a nation that protects the world.

Yet Europe is Asia, takes advantage of American generosity. The Europeans don't pay for their defense. And so they put all this money into welfare into a pension system. The Chinese have been giving America a bad trade deal. The Chinese steal American technology and then use it to make products that they sell back to the Americans.

So the Americans have been getting a really bad deal for decades. And President Donald Trump, he's going to change that by doing four things. Right.

The National Defense Strategy calls for a four-point program to put America first.

The first thing that America is going to do is to secure the Western Hemisphere. Why? Because it wasn't hemisphere for long to the United States.

When you say the Western Hemisphere, what you mean, what region is that?

Okay. So if you look at the map, we can divide, we can divide the map into the Eastern Hemisphere. Okay. And the Western Hemisphere. Okay. So everything over here.

Everything including green land, including Canada, Green Mexico, every part of this area, belong to the United States. Therefore, you cannot trade with any of these countries without American permission, but paying a tribute to the Americans.

And this is why that the Americans have part one-third of the neighborhoods in the Caribbean today.

If you tell the Chinese and the Russians back off, you're going to come here, you either pay a tribute or you'll be attacked. Okay. That's a first point of this strategy.

The Western Hemisphere belongs to America.

It's something that they call the "don road doctrine." Okay. Which is Trump's corollary to the Monroe Doctrine. And so that's point one. Point two is that America wants to reimagine its relationship with its allies.

Basically, NATO needs to pay for its own defense. NATO needs to go fight Russia in Ukraine. America will provide support, it will provide weapons and financing, but NATO needs to do more work. And in these Asia, South Korea and Japan need to do better job of keeping China in check.

Okay. That's point two. Point three is specific to China. And the idea is, the United States does not want to destroy China. The United States does not want to humiliate China, but China needs to be put in its place.

China needs to respect the power and the reach of the United States. And how the United States is going to do this is by strangling China economically. Right? So you look at the map of China. Most of its trade goes to something called the Shadow Malaka.

And the Shun Malaka is most important.

There are times choke point in the world. All of America has to do is park, name of carriers inside the Shun Malaka, and China will lose 90% of its energy exports. But if they pokes them that China would still get through.

No, because you have to go for the Shun Malaka.

So America has something called the first anon chain. The first anon chain prevents China from reaching the Pacific Ocean. And the first anon chain includes South Korea, Japan, Taiwan, the Philippines, and Malaysia. That blocks China from reaching out into the Pacific.

So in order for it to access trade, it has to go through the Shun Malaka. And through the Shun Malaka, it can access India, Africa, and the Middle East. Right?

And so by positioning naval carriers inside the Shun Malaka, it creates a blockade, and China would have to pay a toll in order to access the Shun Malaka. And the fourth one is to rejuvenate. Reintegrate America's defense manufacturing sector.

So supercharged US defense industrial base. That's exactly correct, yes. So what this means is that the Pentagon, a few weeks ago, went to Detroit

Talked to Ford and Jordan Motors and said,

"You know what, because of this one around, we might need you to stop making cars

and start making more munitions." How do you know they said that? They published it, yes.

So the United States went to Forbes and GM and said,

"We might need you to start making weapons with your factories." They're doing this because the product margins are much greater for weapons than for cars. This is a Pentagon, so you can charge them as much as you want, and they'll pay for it. Whereas you make cars, it's for the consumer market, and they may not buy your cars.

Right? So you're like Ford or Jordan Motors, the best deal in the world is to go make weapons for the Pentagon to fight these wars and they'll ease that couldn't go on for forever. So we read the situation where, okay, look, if we read the news, if you talk to a lot of people, Trump's in Idiot,

and this war in Iran makes no sense at all. But then, if you just read the National Defense Strategy, that is on the Department of War website, and we can go there and download it for free and read it themselves, it's a very clear role map of what America needs to do in order to maintain

and pair with his Germany, and so let's summarize the major points.

The first major point is to maintain control over the Western hemisphere

and create a fortress America.

Which is why he invaded Venezuela, and he said he's going to invade Cuba.

Exactly. And it's a Greenland. Look at all the countries that he's named over the past year. Greenland, Canada, Mexico, Venezuela, Cuba, Colombia, Nicaragua, Honduras, it's all the Western hemisphere.

Right? And they're all together. The second point is to create divided rule around the world. So imagine a situation where, in Europe, NATO fights Russia in Ukraine. In East Asia, China fights South Korea and Japan.

In the Middle East, Iran fights the GCC aligned with Israel. What does America do? America can now sell everyone weapons and resources and finance it. This would be back to World War II. But it makes them weaker as well, generally.

That's a point. Yeah. Right?

And then what happened is that $42, that America's in debt would disappear,

because it would be absorbed by the world. Right? So you can say, look, Trump's an idiot. But if you actually look at a map and how America wants this map, let's roll map to play out, it makes perfect sense.

Hmm. So the war is going well for Trump. The war is going very well for Trump. Really? Yes.

But you said in your prediction that he would lose the war. Right? What's your definition of lose the war? I mean, that America would send ground troops, Iran would survive. That's ground invasion.

And this would be so politically damaging that chaos breaks out in the United States. And the US ground invasion is forced to retreat. And the United States is forced to retreat from the Middle East. And you still think that's going to happen. I still think that's going to happen.

So you think, you know, it's going to put ground troops in around are going to resist. And then chaos is going to break out in the United States. Yes. So let me explain to you why ground troops has to be sent. Okay.

All right. Okay. So in phase one of this war, which started February 28, which lasted for about six weeks, the intention was to decapitate the regime. And you do that by striking terrain.

And you do that by striking the military bases in installations throughout Iran. It's what the Americans call shopping out. And the point is to force the Iranians to call uncle. But that's how it happened.

Because to give up, basically.

Because what the Iranians did was they responded by attacking US bases for out, the GCC, they close off a straight off, or moves. And they rather do people. Okay. So rather than surrender, the Iranians basically doubled down.

Maybe that's phase two of the war. Now we've gone to phase three of the war, where Trump has basically decided that the decapitation does not work. And so what Trump is doing is he's going to impose a naval blockade on Iran's naval blockade. Right.

And so the question then is, if Trump understands that the decapitation does not work,

Then using King theory, what's game theory, King theory is to believe that al...

it's governed by rules and incentives. And what you understand the rules and incentives, you can predict how people behave.

These people will always behave according to their best interest.

So in geopolitics, the nation states are individual players. And each nation state is trying to use its resources. And it's advantages in order to pressure other nation states to obey it. Okay. So Trump recognizes that the Iranians have closed off the sort of moves.

But not only that, but the Iranians have also used the sort of moves to finance the war, meaning that now they're forcing ships to pay a total of $2 million in order to cross it. And so this is a huge advantage for the Iranians. And so Trump has said, no, I'm going to blockade your blockade negating Iran's advantage of the suitable moves. So we think about it.

Again, using King theory, I want to discuss what the Americans will do in order to force the Iranians to capitulate. Okay.

So I would say there's a three point strategy. The first strategy is economic regulation.

And basically destroy the state's capacity to finance the war. And there are two ways that Iran is financing the war so far. The first is using board exports, right? Now the percent of Iran's oil goes to China. And this is cog island. This is low spot here. It's cog island.

And this is where Iran will export 90% of its oil overseas. That's a first mechanism. Second mechanism is associated with moves where the race now can collect tolls.

Right? So what you have to do is you have to eliminate both all these finance mechanisms.

You can close off both of the naval blockade. Okay. So that's strategy one. Strategy two is you need to create as much chaos within Iran as possible. You want to turn this fortress into a prison. Now the way you do that is by storing up ethnic tensions in the country. So if you look at a map of Iran, what you will discover is that the person people are primarily in this area in the middle of the country.

But if you go to the borderlands, okay? The border areas, it's primarily ethnic minorities.

And there are two ethnic minorities in the country that I've always been problematic for the government.

The first problematic people are called Bolics. Here in South East, Iraq by the Pakistani border.

Have a history of history and see against the government, okay?

Second people that have been problematic are the Kurds who are primarily in the north west of the country. So if you are the US government, if you are the military, your strategy is to establish four operating bases in these areas. A four operating base is a spearhead of the military. Where you insert round troops to hold in Syria. In order to be supply in order to push further into the territory.

Okay, so a full operating base would be the US putting troops into the northwest in the south east. And then using that as a way to move forward into Iran. No, you don't want to move forward into Iran because it's too large. You don't have enough forces to move into Iran. What you want to do is this, you want to establish four operating bases in these areas in order to arm and train.

And you have to maintain ethnic insurgents.

Okay. That you can also finance as well. And you do this because you want to turn them into cannon fodder. You have the force of response from the Iranian military, right? So if they come in with the army in order to quail these rebellions.

That's great because now you can use your air power to decimate the Iranian military.

Your problem right now is to remember the Iranian military is hiding inside m...

And so you want to force them out in the open. And so you want to create as many points of tension in the country's possible to force the Iranian military to respond. Right? Does that make sense? Okay.

And now your third strategy is to strangle the capital.

And it's that's where the political elite are, but instead of ten million people.

And the way it's triangle trend is you deny them three things. You deny them water, electricity and food. So your tap power plants, your tap reservoirs, your tap railway start doing food into the capital. And when you do that, these 10 million people in Iran will now oppose the government and the men of political settlement. Because they need food water electricity to survive.

Is there a government? Right now there should have been as to the two extent of leadership in Iran. Because Trump's recent interviews he's saying, he's claiming that the leadership in Iran are fighting themselves. But then he's also saying another interview that they don't even know who they're dealing with. Exactly.

Iran has a very unusual political system in that it's of theocracy.

It's a religious government. It's run by clerics called the Moulas in theory. And then there's a parallel system, a state apparatus that actually takes care of their day to day bureaucracy. And that's secular. The Moulas control the morality of the country, they also control foreign affairs.

So basically, this is important because Iran has two parallel military structures.

You have the military, but you also have the IRGC. The IRGC are only loyal to the Moulas, which is the religious power. Exactly. Right. So you have this divide in the country where the IRGC see this as a religious war as a crusade to kill the great Satan. And they want to fight to the death.

And the great Satan is the great Satan is they're going to empire. Okay. Which is a source of the misery that Iran has been suffering for the past few decades. And the IRGC not only do they see America as a great Satan, but they also see this as a global conflict because there are proxies that support their beliefs,

including here in Lebanon, has been there, including here in Yemen, the poofies, and of course in Palestine, Hamas. Okay. And before Syria was also part of their axis of resistance. But Syria has been toppled by the Americans and it's really this. So the IRGC sees this as a religious crusade that is global in nature. The political leadership in Iran sees it completely different.

They see this as a conflict permeating between America and Iran. And they want to reach a global settlement as soon as possible. And so in other words, these ceasefire negotiations, it's really all for show.

Because I think in a day, even if the Americans gave the ratings everything they wanted,

the IRGC still controls the battlefield. And they would not surrender or seek peace terms lightly. Another problem in this situation is the IRGC practitioner called the Mosiah. The ending of the Mosiah strategy is, okay, you know the Americans, the most effective military ever in the ministry. You know that they practice shopping all, they have a patient.

So how do we respond to that? We respond to that using decentralization. 31 provinces in the country where all common control that is localized.

So basically, they have 31 different armies that have their own leadership.

Correct, okay. And when you do this, it's a fight to the finish. Why did they do that? They did it because the Americans possess the most sophisticated surveillance technology in the world. Meaning they can easily identify the leadership and they can easily track you down and kill you.

So the only way around that is to decentralize the leadership and spread around the country.

So that the Americans can't kill everyone. How does the central government orchestrate 31 different armies in Iran? How does it get a message out to them? I have Peter Hicksf, make a comment in one of the interviews saying that it takes some time for the pigeons to get out to the armies.

What he was saying basically is that when the ceasefire was called and there ...

he was basically saying that's just because it takes a long time to tell the 31 different armies to stop.

The reality is that given the most extra energy, there's actually no way to coordinate the 31 different military operations.

Because the most extra energy was meant to fight to the bread of end. You're not stop until you completely control the Middle East and the Americans have been forced out of the Middle East. And Israel has been humble. Okay. So let's go into the specifics of what the most extra energy is. The idea is that they have an extra energy.

So an extra energy is an understanding of how the world should be and how we move towards this world. And for the Iranians, the rest of theology is that the Iran in order to which its true potential needs to be master of the Muslim world. In each of the places, Saudi Arabia, it's to align with the United States, which is a great Satan. Mecca and Medina are under the influence of the great Satan.

Because why are their U.S. military bases in Saudi Arabia?

So this will work from their perspective. It's a great opportunity to overthrow the corrupt leadership of Saudi Arabia. But not only Saudi Arabia, but in the entire U.S. to see, overthrow the corrupt governments of the entire Muslim world.

And install governments that put God alone first.

So they're not gonna quit around. This war, that's a start. Can only lead to a war three. That's a strong statement to make. As a probability, what probability would you assign to that claim?

I would put it pretty high and between 80 to 90%. Exactly. So that's certainty. Basically certainly yes. Explain to me how that happens.

So we need to step back and appreciate that there's a global dynamic going on.

And we need to appreciate the grand strategy of the different players involved. So what I'm going to do is this. I'm going to explain to you how each nation sees itself in the world. Okay. And to that, I'm going to use a chess set. Okay.

All right. This is the key. This is the political system of the United States, which is democracy. And there are certain strengths and weaknesses to democracy. The democracy is vibrant. It's creative, it's flexible.

But its ultimate weakness is polarization. Where today, the different political factions refuse it along and this may bring up the civil war. So the way you defeat the United States is not to conquer it.

You can never conquer the United States.

The way the defeat the United States is to force it into a civil war, which then kills the king. To get its people to rise up against the leadership. No, you want the Democrats, Republicans, to form different factions and fight a civil war. Okay. You want to create so much political polarization, different elite factions,

take up arms against each other. Okay. So this is the political system. Okay. But democracy.

Now let's look at the queen. What's the queen? The queen is what I refer to as the grand strategy of the United States. How the United States can maintain its control over the entire world. And the grand strategy, it's already outlined in national defense strategy. Is it right? Let's create fortress America and then create chaos for the entire world.

So that we can sell everyone weapons and resources. Okay. That's the grand strategy, right? All right.

Now, what do we have the grand strategy? You need to implement the grand strategy.

So you need attack vectors. All right. The attack vectors are the work, the bishop and the knight. So let's go over the three major attack vectors of the United States. They are, first of all, America's technological supremacy.

So these are the basic tools that they use to attack of this. Exactly. In order to achieve the grand strategy. All right. So arrows supremacy, right? Which is the planes and stuff like that.

Then you have the US dollar, right? Because the US dollar allows you to finance everything. And everyone wants the US dollar. Okay. So that is the second attack vector.

The third attack vector is propaganda.

Minniate states controls the world's most powerful media, including Europe times CNN.

And as such, they can control the narrative of the world.

Okay. So these are the three major attack vectors. Now they use the pawns. The pawns are weapons that they can sacrifice in order to achieve the grand strategy. And in the case of the United States, the pawn are the allies. Meaning, I'd say this, but the UK, Europe, South Korea, and Japan.

And also the entire Western hemisphere. This is the American, okay? The people who are most opposed to this grand strategy of Americans, other Russians. So let's go over the Russian system. In the Russian system, the king, the global system, it's notocracy.

And in aocracy, it's good because it allows for coordination. It allows for decisiveness. It allows for resolve. Long-term thinking. Exactly. Right? That's Putin. What's bad is, if this guy dies, there's a certain crisis.

Right? So basically, once you topple the autocrat and the system itself breaks down.

Okay? So that's the Russian system. Right? For the Russian's, the Russian strategy is, someone called the third world strategy. The third world strategy. Yes. Okay? So the people in Russia believe that they are the two successors to grow an empire. And previously, there are two rooms. It was the first room.

Then it moved to Constantinople. And Moscow is destined to be the third world. And what makes Moscow interesting is that it wants to unite the entire Christian world under its leadership. The main philosopher for the Thor room strategy is either in a Dugin, 1997, what a book called Foundation of Geopolitics.

And what he said was this, what he said that if Russia is to defeat the Americans, it needs to build alliances throughout New Asia in order to negate American sea power and air supremacy. Right? So what are the attack vectors for Russia? Okay? The first attack vector, the side of the country, makes it almost invincible.

So think about towards two Operation Barrels that the Germans went into Russia with 6,000 million men.

And it didn't get very far, okay?

So the terrain is very important. The geography is very important.

Then you have the Orthodox religion. Which is meant to galvanize believers into supporting Russia. The third attack vector is artillery. So Russia has the best land arm in the world. And we're seeing that play out in Ukraine where a combination of Russian artillery

and drones, it's devastating Ukrainian military in Ukraine. But pause for Russia are its soldiers. So Russia is able to sustain many casualties in its military. If you actually go into view Russian soldiers, they are probably the toughest soldiers in the world.

They are literally not afraid to die for what they believe in. Okay? So this is the Russian third-room strategy. You can see how it conflicts with Americans. Okay? Now we go to this release. Jerusalem, the capital, it's a mixed system.

Meaning it's both democracy as well as a theocracy. And it's good in that these really are very creative. But the fundamental weakness is the division of the society. Where Tel Aviv and Jerusalem don't get along. Okay? So that is the block system of Israel.

The grand strategy of Israel is called the Greater Israel Project. So the Israelis believe that the environmental ease belongs to them. From the Nile to your fadies.

Because that's what it says in the Bible.

This is what God Yahweh promised Abraham. So their intention is to conquer the entire Middle East, including Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Lebanon, even parts of Turkey. Okay? Now let's look at the attack vectors for the Israelis.

The first attack vector is Mossad.

Mossad is the most powerful intelligence they just see in the world.

And that it is able to infiltrate and undermine given political systems.

And Mossad, very much as a neighbor is the secret service.

Basically, yes. Yes, the corresponding system.

Second attack vector for this release is the Jewish diaspora.

Because Jews do business everywhere around the world. And Jewish businessmen work very closely with Mossad. And as such, they have influence in a lot of places that they shouldn't have. And the third attack vector is the Bible. Why? These are your Christian.

And there are many Christians who believe this. You believe that the Jews are God's chosen people. So if you look at what's happening in the Middle East, all this conflict between Israel and Palestine, a lot of this conflict is being supported politically in the United States

by a group of people called Christian Zionists. And these are Christians. They're not Jews. They're Christians who believe that Israel should achieve the Jewish project because this is part of God's plan.

And the pawns for this release are basically everyone else, okay?

So a lot of the hardware underpinning the global IT infrastructure is being controlled by the Israelis. So now we go to the fourth player in this great game. That's Iran. So Iran, it is a theocracy.

People are not afraid to die for what they believe in in Iraq. But the weakness is that it can alienate the majority of the population because only on minority are religious outlets in Iraq. Most people just want to live to live a decent life. So if they feel that these molas, the RGC are threat

to their peace and prosperity, then they might rise up against the molas. Which is what we've seen over the years, right? Exactly. So this is the total system of the Iranians.

Their grandchildity is to unite the Muslim world under leadership.

They have three attack vectors, okay?

The first attack vector are their proxies.

Respelah, Hamas, Noofis. Another attack vector is their asymmetrical warfare, meaning using drones and missiles to create as much economic damage as possible. And the third attack vector is their geography or topography. They are fortresses.

So it's almost impossible to invade them. Right? So that's their Shia militiamen. These religious outlets who are not afraid to die. Essentially, there are many of them could be suicide bombers.

Okay? And so for them, this is a religious war. Okay? So now we're seeing how this entire battlefield unfolds across the world. All right? So I've met up the grandchildity of these different nation states. We will be involved in World War III.

Let's look at our present situation, okay? So what we have so far is that the Russians are occupied with their army and Ukraine. Okay? This is where their infantry, their artillery is based. At the same time, Russia has something called the shuttle fleet. And these are about a thousand tankers that evade sanctions around the world.

Okay? And this is essentially their navy.

America is the most powerful military in the world.

They have the most sophisticated air supremacy as well as the control over the sea lanes. And it's trying not to use infiltrate because that creates civilian casualties and that pisses everyone off in the mirror. Okay? This really is our essentially a emotionally army aligned with the American Empire. Doing a bidding of the American Empire.

It's fighting in against Lebanon as well as Iran. The Iranians, they are much of an air force, but they use a lot of drones to threaten. So this is where we are so far. According to the grandchildity, we can predict how they will make their moves on the next few months or next few years. America doesn't really care about this war in Iran. Because what America wants to do is force entire world to become dependent on American weapons and resources.

And you do that in two ways. The first is you control the strategic choke points of the world.

They include the cervical moves.

But you also want to control the shoulder malaca. Or over here.

Because that blocks off East Asia. You also want to control the pandemic and now. You also want to control green light.

You also want to control the strength of your ball-ter. You can see the American Navy, explaining outwards and occupying all these maritime choke points. At the same time, you want to use your technological supremacy.

Your aerosopremacy, your drones to destroy the world, critical energy infrastructure.

Already we're seeing or if our needs being destroyed throughout the world. We'll refine this. Or we'll find this. As America, you're trying to defeat the world energy inventory. So they're forced to beg you for to supply energy.

And once this market is created, then you can build infrastructure for Venezuela. You can take over Canada. You can control Mexico. You can take over Green light. The Russians have no choice but to respond. Because if the Americans are controlling the strategic choke points, your shadow fleet is rendered redundant useless.

So how do you ship your oil around the world?

We have two options. I'm just a bit of real ways to unite the US and China. And I'll transport my oil using pipelines in real ways. The problem with that is now that you're vulnerable to American aerosopremacy, drone attacks. So you have no choice but to arm your shadow fleet. And now what's going to happen is this constantly oceans between Russian shadow fleet tankers.

They're trying to transport oil around the world and these American destroyers who are trying to capture or destroy these shadow tankers. Now the advantage that Russia has is that America doesn't have that much naval assets anymore. It used to, but not anymore. The other thing is that the world really needs energy. So you're going to imagine China financing the militarization of the Russian shadow fleet.

Why would say why would the US try and stop Russian boats?

Because in this global outlook, there are two nations that could provide weapons and resources to the rest of the world.

There are Russia and they are America. So Americans become dominant. It needs to block hate Russia. And what you do that is by seizing their shadow fleet. But it's not happening. That would be an act of war. But it's already happening. Really? Yes, it's already happening.

Where? In Iranian tankers happen seas by the Americans. And tankers are being seized in the Caribbean as well by the American Navy. Who's tankers? I believe they are Russian tankers. Yes. The United States hasn't been seized in time to his link to Russia.

I made your escalation occurred earlier this year on January 7, 2026 when the US military and Coast Guard intercepted two sanctioned shadow fleet oil tankers. While one was seized directly in the Caribbean, the other involved a dramatic chase that started in the Caribbean and ended in the north Atlantic. US forces captured a sanctioned tanker during a pre-dorn raid directly in the Caribbean Sea. The US military described it as stateless sanctioned dark fleet. Fessel, which was engaged in illicit activities.

These seizures are part of Operation Southern Spear, a strict enforcement of the US embargo on Venezuelan oil exports. Both vessels were targeted for violating US sanctions by transporting illicit crude oil linked to Venezuela as well as Iran and his below. And as you pointed out, this is an act of war. So those were ships that didn't have a country linked to them directly.

That's why they cost shuttle fleet tankers.

Okay. But they were essentially Russian. But they were essentially shipping oil outside of the United States that the United States wouldn't control. Is that kind of... That is correct.

Yes. So in the US, this is our rule. Get lost. That is correct, yes. So what the United States is doing, it's slowly expanding its global reach.

And what it's doing is by inserting treaties with nations that are part of these truck points. So the treatment of the United States has signed a military corporation agreement with Indonesia. And with the Secretary of Polter, the Americans have signed an agreement now with Morocco. Right. So they are looking for the legal framework, the justification to control the world's truck points,

which would bring them directly in conflict with the Russian and shuttle fleet. So at some point, you think the way that the war starts is the US Navy attacks a Russian boat.

I personally believe that this will be a drawn-out process that there's no re...

Because not only are Russian shuttle flankers, shuttle fleet tankers being seized,

but remember, Russian oil refines are being destroyed by Ukrainian drones. The Russian belief that it is NATO that is responsible for the sabotage. So what you take the catalyst moment is when this will kick off.

I think we are already in the catalyst moment.

I think we are already in war with three. Because this conflict, it's going to expand outwards into a global conflict. And there's nothing anyone can do to stop this, right? Because again, you have these different to being visions of how the world should work. And the Russians and the Americans are already at conflict with each other.

So the next step will be the Russians come into this war on the side of the Iranians. Do you think that's going to happen? I think that's going to happen. Because according to Russian-Grants' strategy, you have no choice but to say the Iranians. Because you're trying to promote this view that the world is split between the spiritual and the material.

The Americans are the Antichrist. The Americans support individual hedonism. Whereas we Russians, we believe in humanity. We believe in goodness. We believe in community.

Right? So if that is your argument, if that's your strategy, the even more obligation, a more imperative to help the Iranians in their time of need. And in fact, Prime Minister Arachi of Iran has recently visited Putin in Moscow. Putin is Putin personally received him and said to Arachi,

"We, the Russian people, admire your determination, your resolve against the Americans."

And I think that is a sign that Putin has entered the chat

and that the Russians will start to help the Iranians as his war progresses. So let's go back to this map, okay? And the Americans have a three-page strategy to triangle Iran.

The first is to use ground forces to establish sport-operative bases

to insight ethnic violence in the country. The second is to block all the shelter who moves and cut off Iranian financing. The third is to triangle Iran and cause people to rise up against the government, okay? The Russians, so if things stay the same as they are now, America wins easily.

But if Russia were to enter the war, and we have the Iranians, the first thing that Russia would do is provide Iran with reinforcement, from the customer to see, right? Because the Americans want to knock out, to ask the past to provide food, water, and electricity to its people.

But food and customers see the Russians can support the Iranians.

But not only that, and this is much more important,

if the Russians would come in, they could also bring the Chinese into the war on behalf of the Iranians. And the Chinese could use the belt and roll in the issue, which is the railway system, to reinforce Iran wrong the East. So now even though number triangle trend,

because the Russians and the Chinese are reinforcing trend. Then what the Russians could do is we are financing to Iranians. Basically the Chinese and the Russians can say to Iranians, don't worry about financing. We will give you enough financing for you to continue this war

for as long as you want. And we will use our resources as collateral for this financing.

And the third thing, and this is actually the most important,

is that Russia could put Iran under its nuclear umbrella. And this wouldn't negate the use of tactical nuclear weapons. This release and the Americans, if they really felt under pressure. If they really put in a corner, they could always choose to use tactical nuclear weapons.

The Russians were involved, that negates that option. So if the Russians get involved in this war, they bring the Chinese, they provide the resources and the financing. You can do this war for as long as it takes. Right?

And now the Americans need to expand this war or in the world to try now to topple the government in Russia. These are Russians are the main bakers of the Iranians. And you're predicting that Russia will get involved here. According to the Grand Strategy of Russia,

the Russian have no choice but to get involved, because what will happen is that if you look at some math, if Iran were to be conquered by the Americans or there's release, the entire southern flag of the Russians are not exposed.

That's something that the Russians would never allow to happen.

This sovereign fact. So this from underneath. Basically, right? Right? But the Americans already have close relations with as a result.

And they already have bases to make a sense, as well as you back at that, right? So you can see how once the Americans control this area, they can now attack Russia, flow, and stuff.

But what's most important is the issue of global trade,

where a counter to a American's never blockade, is by creating a duration train block that involves Iran, Russia, and China. If you look at Russia's north-south corridor, right? If you look at Russia's north-south corridor and runs full Iran,

if Russia wants to access the Middle East, that's what's Africa,

let's go full Iran. So that China's better known than they should do, it goes through Iran as well. So by taking out Iran, you've blockaded both Russia and China. 70% of people who add something to the online cart never actually buy it. And that number is based on over 10 years of research.

But what I think is even more interesting is what the Baymark Institute discovered. They're a private research company that ran a study, which found the average e-commerce store can increase its conversion rate by 35%. Just by making it check out easier. Not better marketing or better products, but by delivering a smoother checkout experience.

So if you're looking for an easy way to make your checkout process smoother, I want you to think about moving your business on to Shopify. It's the platform we use to sell the 1% diaries and the conversation cards because it's so simple and smart to use. It puts all of our inventory payments and analytics in one place

and has so many AI tools to help us get up and running straightaway. Not to mention that it grows with you regardless of the stage that your businesses are. So if you're ready to fix your checkout process, sign up for your $1 per month trial at Shopify.com/bottler. That's Shopify.com/bottler and don't tell anybody.

Iron multiple companies that have multiple sales teams. And one of the things as a founder of a company that's often confusing is you find it hard to figure out where sales are. So about 10 years ago I started using pipe drive in my former company and it's also the reason why I switched over.

All of my commercial teams in my current media company called Stephen.com to use pipe drive as well. Not only do they sponsor this show but they've been an incredibly effective way of scaling our sales engine over the years. Pipedrive is an easy-to-use intelligence CRM and it's very cool.

It makes your sales process visible through one dashboard. A visual pipeline showing every deal, what stage it's in, what needs to happen next and it's all in real time with no delay. It doesn't magically close the deal for you of course, but it does replace complexity with clarity.

If you want to join over 100,000 companies already using pipe drive,

you can use my link for a 30-day free trial with no credit card payment needed. Head to pipedrive.com/ceo to get started. That's pipedrive.com/ceo. I'll see you over there. So when do you think this is going to happen?

If you get it were to give me a timeline of events, you think it's going to occur? What timeline do you think you're operating under? I guess one of the factors here is that Trump only has what three years left in power. So, you know, he's reasonably going to leave power at some point soon.

So if you were around, you might just want to play it out and hope that there's a different leadership in place by 20, what would be 2030? The global leadership in Iran leave that they can wait Trump out. So they're waiting for the midterms, because they believe that in November, the Democrats will win the midterms and then they won't teach Trump.

And basically, constraint has capacity to fight wars.

And worst case scenario. Trump will be gone in 2020 as you point out. There's an importance with this. The first major problem is the National Defense Strategy, which we look at previously.

The National Defense Strategy, it is a long-term strategic framework for how America can control the world. And so one possibility is that Trump is just creating enough chaos for America to transition. When the Democrats come to power, if they come to power,

they will institutionalize the strategy. And we know this as a possibility because in Trump's first term, he changed America's strategy around the world. And then when Biden can empower, he then institutionalize the strategy via the China.

So it was Trump who launched these, this terrible war against China.

And then finally comes in power, institutionalized it.

So I think what we're three, it's a much more long-term war of attrition.

And I don't think that this war will end anytime soon.

You've made a series of new predictions, you've made eight new predictions.

And I have them in this box here. I'll let you reveal what those predictions are. Okay. This is one prediction.

Okay, so this is most controversial prediction, okay?

I predict that they will be a use of a war, and Trump will get a third term.

You think Trump will get a third term. Isn't that constitutionally illegal? There are things that are unconventional and immoral and wrong and evil and dangerous. And there are certain things that are illegal. Trump getting a third term is not illegal.

So let me explain the loophole. What Trump could do is this, okay? There are two possibilities. The first possibility is in 28, he has his son, Don Jr. run as a president. And he runs as the vice president.

And then when Don Jr. wins, if he wins, then Don Jr. could advocate. And Trump would be the president. And in the Constitution, he would question him very carefully. It doesn't actually prohibit people from doing that. It's not been done in the past. And like no same person with any morality would do this.

But that doesn't stop Trump from doing this, okay? That's one possibility. Another possibility is that by 2020, 8, America is at war with everyone. There's a national draft. The president now has emergency war powers. And so he can actually suspend the Constitution and delay the election, which is what Zelensky did in Ukraine.

So these are two different possibilities.

But I think that given Trump's track record, given his personality,

I think he very much wants a third term. And I think that he will do everything possible to get a third term. He would turn 83 years old in the same year that he finishes his second term. This is a man who eats McDonald's hamburgers every day. He doesn't really work out.

Yet on the campaign trail, he's able to go to two rallies a day. And in each rally to 50,000 people, he will talk on and on and on. Then at night, when he should be sleeping, he's either on through social tweeting about the world, or he's calling out reporters and telling him or her some confidential information that he really shouldn't be discussing with the media. This is a man who was addicted to attention.

This is a man who loves a spotlight.

He's lived always life in the spotlight.

For him, death is to be ignored. So given his personality, he rarely died in office, then live peacefully somewhere else. And of those two strategies that you name to where he puts his son in and then becomes president that way, or there's a wall breaks out, so he says he has to stay in office.

Of those two strategies, which one do you think he's more likely to deploy?

Actually, think that giving his daughters up, he would prefer the first strategy. His putting his son in. Because that shows himself in the world that America loves him. Okay, and it could also be JD Vance or someone else, right? It doesn't have to be his son necessarily.

12 does not trust anyone. 12 has never had a planet project.

In fact, everyone actually really worked for 12 has been kind of screwed over by him. Do you not think that if his son decided to run and then announced that the vice president was his dad, do you not think that there would be such a huge backlash in the United States that his son wouldn't win? Well, I think there's a possibility that they figure out how to cheat in 2028. Oh, as in actually to cheat the election, right?

So at the poll. Right. So let's go into front of mine. It's psychology. In his mind, he won in 2020.

The people voted for him. But the Democrats stole the election with Melan Ballet, and by rigging the election machines. Okay, in his mind, he literally believes that. So in his mind, he believes that this is actually his third term and the people and the government.

They owe him a second term, which is what he wants now.

He wants compensation for having the election stolen from him in 2020.

I find it really implausible to think that Trump would run with run for third term.

So again, this is a prediction and it is a test of the validity of my theoretical framework. I was looking at some of the constitutions and the laws. And it says that this 22nd amendment explicitly states, no person shall be elected to the office of the president more than twice.

Some theorists have tried to argue that since the amendment says elected, a person might be able to serve a third term if they're appointed to succeed to the role.

Exactly. If they were appointed or succeeded to the role, E.G. by being vice president first. Legal scholars, I'm a judicial committee, almost universally reject this. The 12th amendment requires that anyone serving as vice president must be eligible to be president. Since a two-term president is ineligible to be elected again, the illegally barred from being vice president.

So the point is there's nothing explicit in the Constitution that barred someone from having a third term.

And there's the bait in the legal community about the spirit of the 22nd amendment.

And we go to the Supreme Court. And the Supreme Court is controlled right now by the conservatives. Trump is appointed three of the nine justices and there's a possibility he gets a fourth later in the year. So it's entirely up to Supreme Court whether or not he can run. And again, there's something explicit in the Constitution that forbids him from running.

That's a vice president. Okay. What's your next prediction?

The second prediction is there'll be a grand bargain between the United States and China.

What does that mean? It means that people expect that the United States and China will go to war at some point over Taiwan. It means a lot of people expect that China wants to challenge American hegemony. And we place America as the global superpower. But China does not want to do that.

China's probably happy with America being the world's edge of mind because you have to invest so much of your resources into

finding these wars that backup your nation. So what China's going to do is try to triangulate between Russia and United States. This is what happened during the Cold War. When China was actually on the side of the Soviet Union, China was part of the non-aligned community. And that's what China's going to try for in over three, where China may help out Iran, may provide financing for Russia.

But it's also going to strike deals with the United States as well. Okay. So I think that Trump and President Xi are supposed to meet at least three times, possibly four times this year.

The first will be in mid-May, in Beijing. And I think that they will start a process in which China and America come to an arrangement that benefits both economically.

What does America want America want China to continue to buy US treasuries in order to finance American debt? What does China want? China wants energy resources from the western hemisphere and it wants to access the American market. So there's no reason why China and America can I come to a arrangement that benefits both. And Trump is very much a transactional character.

Well, what that means for the world? It means that China is not really part of what we're through in a meaningful way. Okay, so they're going to do a deal. They'll continue to work together as friends. The China War will be friends with both Russia and the United States as Russia and the United States like each other. Okay.

What's your next prediction? Iran is our forever war and the United States will institute an actual draft. Iran is another forever war and the United States will institute a national draft. He thinks Iran is going to Iran is a war is going to tumble on the decades and that the US is going to draft people, which means you're obliged to go and fight. Exactly. Okay.

So the logic is this. America doesn't really care if Iran is a feeder or not. That's not really part of the American Grand Strategy. Iran right now is a perfect pretext for America to expend artworks and establish maritime choke points around the world. And to force the world to buy American energy.

This war in Iran benefits America tremendously.

So why don't have it go on for a long, long time? In order to make sure this work goes on for a long time, you need ground troops. And you need a lot of ground troops.

And that's why you need a national draft.

So what would a national draft look like in the United States? Everyone between the age of 18 and 25 has to sign up to the army. Right. So most people don't appreciate this.

But America has always had a draft.

But for a long as time, you didn't really care whether or not you actually stand for the draft. And so in the summer, participation in the draft will be automatic. Meaning that you're between 18 to 24 and a marathon in your mail. You'll be automatically put into the draft system from one. I mean, from December.

This year. Yes, that's correct. Yes. So between the age of 18 and 25, you think. And what does that really mean? Well, I've not really experienced that in my lifetime.

So it means that if you're between the age of 18 and 24, either gender. No, mail. mail. Then you have to sign up for the army. No, you already put into a draft.

Oh, you're ready. Okay, but you might be called upon. That's right. It's a lottery system. Okay. And this is quite a lot of backlash during the Vietnam era.

And so they sort of torn it down. But it's starting December. They just pass a law. That says it's starting December. You'll be unlikely register.

Four. They've they've passed a rule. Yes, they have.

Well, in theory, Congress first needs to declare war.

Okay. Right. That's a first step. And to Congress has not actually declared war yet. Okay.

So you think there'll be a draft.

I think this will this war in Iran's going to trickle on for a long time.

How long? 10, 20 years. Like Afghanistan. I don't see it stopping. Okay.

Yeah. What's next? Your prediction books. Okay. Okay.

This is pretty bad. The world will move towards an AI surveillance state. I feel like that's already happening. I think it's pretty obvious. Yeah.

What does that mean in reality for the average person? Because you know, we're seeing some of these big companies like. Open AI and phropicals sort of signing up to government. Military surveillance projects. What does that mean for the average person?

Right. So the average person. It means two things. It means digital ID, digital currency. Okay.

So what that what that will allow is for the government to basically monitor everything you do online.

And control all financial transactions. It can basically program your bank account. So like you can't buy cigarettes or you can't buy drugs. Um, and this will allow the government to basically. Um, categories everyone and put everyone into a certain database to monitor that person.

And once you have, once you're able to categories everyone, you're allowed. Then you're, you are able to use AI to predict their behavior. Isn't this what goes on in some parts of the world? This is where it goes on in China. And that's why I know about this.

How does it work in China? Well, in China, we all have digital ID.

If you want to access anything in China, you need your digital ID.

So you're going to open a bank account. You have to, you have to use, um, digital ID. If you want to use any, uh, e-payments, you have to use digital ID. If you want to use a phone, you have to use digital ID. Okay.

So everyone's part of this national database. And then this, what this allows government to do is basically monitor if you do. Because basically, depending on how you buy things, I can then extrapolate to figure out your behavior. And then I can figure out your thinking, right?

And then I can create incentives in order to guide and control your behavior. So in China, can they see everything that you do? Yes, they can. Messages you send. Everything.

Payments you make. Everything. Everything. Have you do online is being recorded and it's being input into the database. To figure out who you are, what you want, and how to control you.

And they think this is progress, by the way. This is progress. Because I'm making you a better person, right? I'm helping you achieve your dream. I'm helping you lose weight.

I'm helping you avoid drugs. I'm helping you work harder. When you do in trouble if you took against this system. Well, me personally. Okay. So I operate in a great area where I do not interact with the Chinese Internet.

So everything I do is an English. It's meant for consumption and the Western world. And I don't talk to Chinese reporters. I don't talk to Chinese social media. I've no Chinese media presence.

And I am not at all influential in trying to... And I prefer that way because if I became famous in China,

Then they would obviously want to control me in order to better influence oth...

What's your next prediction? Israel will achieve the greater Israel project.

So you think Israel are going to conquer the Middle East?

Israel has essentially already conquered the Middle East. The only force in their way right now is America. So once America leaves the Middle East, which I expect to happen, then Israel will absorb Santa Com,

which is the Central Command, the American military bases, in the Middle East and they will achieve the greater Israel project. There's no other power in the Middle East. I can withstand the might and power of Israel. And do you have a timeline for this?

The moment America quits the war against Iran, the moment that America leaves the Middle East, Israel will achieve the greater Israel project. And what's really interesting right now is that Israel is trying to drag this war out for as long as possible,

but you see this war as a way to destroy all its major enemies in the Middle East. You know, they really have already said this. After Iran, Turkey is next. Turkey is next.

This war is already destroying Saudi Arabia and the GCC, right?

So the last opponent is Turkey. Once Turkey is brought into this war, then Israel will achieve the greater Israel project. And the greater Israel project covers all of this region here from Turkey, Egypt, Yemen, and Iran. So the greater Israel project is like this, okay?

So goes from the Nile in Egypt to the United States and Iraq. And it covers part of Turkey, of Syria, of Lebanon, of Jordan, and parts of Saudi Arabia, which also includes Mecca Medina. What is your next prediction? NATO and Russia will fight for Deathsa.

A Deathsa, what's the Deathsa? Okay. So if you look at the Ukraine-Fart lines, right now Russia is preoccupied

and trying to control the Dondas, which is basically Eastern Ukraine.

Why Russia is doing this is that if the Ukraine has historically been part of Russia, therefore most people there speak Russian or are absolutely Russian. The Dondas is also the agricultural and industrial heart land of Ukraine. So if Russia were to control Eastern Ukraine, this isn't really need Western Ukraine. And in Russia, Ukraine would basically become a rump state.

It could be useless, right? So the last piece to this puzzle would be Odessa, which sits on the Black Sea. And the reason why you want Odessa is that it's the major port. And once you control Odessa, you basically block off Ukraine from the Black Sea. You have complete control over the Black Sea.

The Black Sea is that the Black Sea. This is the Black Sea, and this is Odessa right here, yes. Okay, so you're saying that Russia will take a Deathsa. That's great. Okay, so they'll control the Black Sea.

That's right. But NATO recognises that if Odessa falls, the Russians, the war is over. And Russia will achieve all its major strategic objectives. Once the war is over. Because Russia doesn't want to continue on after Odessa.

It's a need of Ukraine. Why would does it get from taking Odessa?

Once it takes Odessa, control of one third of the world's carbohydrates.

If Russia willed it, Africa would starve to death. The Middle East would starve. Because Russia and Ukraine export a lot of grain to these places. These places are not food-independent. They rely on fertilizer.

They rely on food imports. Okay, and Russia is using the Black Sea here to export exactly. Okay, what is your next prediction? This is the last one. Please be good.

Okay, I was hoping for an optimistic one. But East Asia breaks out into conflict. Okay, what do you mean by that? Okay, so we've talked a lot about the Middle East. And we've talked briefly about Europe.

Okay, so now let's go into East Asia.

And I think there are three major sources of friction and conflict in East Asia.

And these could be potentially major flashpoints.

The first flashpoint is, of course, over Taiwan.

There's China believes that Taiwan is part of its territory. And so it wants to take over Taiwan.

The problem with this is that recently,

Partnership Taxi Acti of Japan has said that Taiwan is core to Japanese strategic interests. What she means by this is that Japan has no resources. It's a matter of fact, from power that it depends on resources from overseas. If China would think over Taiwan, it can now lock Japan

from accessing the Shidongblaka. And that is a possibility Japan cannot permit. So Japan would fight to ensure

that Taiwan and China were never to unify.

Would they actually, because China is so strong, right?

Can they just not Japan straight out? Japan has no choice but to fight. Because again, if China and Taiwan were to unify peacefully, Japan would cut off from the entirety of Southeast Asia. And Japan relies on Southeast Asia historically for resources.

Why would it be cut off from Southeast Asia? Can it just go down here through the Philippines? There's a lot of resources around the South China Sea. Okay, right, oil minerals on that. So if China and Taiwan were to unify,

basically Japan would feel a bit threatened. And your prediction is that there will be some kind of conflict in this region.

Yeah, so that's the first class point, okay?

Taiwan. There's another class point, which is Shidongblaka, right? Because again, America wants to control the Shidongblaka, but China recognizes that the Shidongblaka is key to its economic survival. And so there's a lot of conflict over the Shidongblaka.

Number two. The third class point, which I think with the most surprising,

but actually with the most pressing, is North Korea. So let's just use the theme there. We are the leader, the prime leader of North Korea. It is a dictatorship. Everyone worships me. It's a called personality, but we're poor.

And the rest of the world is in conflict, right? Europe is fighting with Russia. The Middle East isn't planes. America's distracted China can throw the world to the best of its ability. Japan and China are fighting over the stop China Sea. If you're in North Korea, now it's the best opportunity

to create as much havoc in the world as possible. There's actually nothing, and then we can do the stop you. You are the roller in high school that no one pays attention to, but because all the big boys are fighting each other, you can come in and dominate the school now.

Who would they be dominating? They can dominate South Korea. Because if you just look at a population map of South Korea, most of South Korean population is located in Seoul and Seoul is about 20 minutes, artillery from North Korea.

So in 20 minutes, North Korea could bring artillery onto Seoul

and basically they flattened their city.

Why wouldn't you extort the South Koreans? Because the South Koreans are going to shoot back. We're for what? Do they not have military? They're protected by the Americans right now.

And the Americans are busy transporting artillery and weapon systems, including the fat system, all of her to the Middle East. It's called fat, THAAD. It used to be in South Korea to protect against North Korea, and now it's over in the Middle East.

So Americans are cannabizing both South Korean Japan in order to maintain this war in the Middle East. Now's the time. Why not? It's free money. It's like taking candy from a baby. But South Korea have their own military, right?

How do you defend against artillery strikes? Uh, I don't know. You don't. But they would fire back, right? They'd get themselves into a pretty ugly war.

South Korea have a big military. Well, my people are poor. They're not afraid to die. In fact, I've sent thousands of them to go to Ukraine to fight for the Russians. And they fight to the death.

They use their poor, and they don't fight to the death. If they're allowed to be taken prisoner, I'll kill the families back at home. South Koreans are rich. They are used to democracy. They're used to individual rights.

So am I threatened to blow your city up?

You're telling me you won't bribe me, not to do so?

Isn't enough fastest for this way? It's to bribe me and have to cost trouble for you?

Okay, so you think they're going to bribe them?

Extortion. This is extortion. I don't need to destroy South Korea.

All I need to do is basically threaten the South Koreans.

And they'll just bribe me, not to do anything. So what does all of this stuff mean for the average person? You know, people listening right now, they're just normal people. A lot of them, not all of them. A lot of them are just normal people getting on with their lives.

And they care about their families, their jobs, their futures. What message have you got for them? In this new world, we will need leaders. We will need average people who are able to bring hope to the people around them. Who are able to tell their neighbors, their friends,

we have to come together as a community and become a family if we were to survive.

That's what the world needs in the future.

It will need entrepreneurial leaders, it will need visionaries, it will need profits. Those who will most thrive are those who make an effort to reach out, not on the door of your neighbors and say, "Listen, there's a blackout." And there's probably no water. But don't fear because if we come together as community,

if we go and knock on everyone's doors, then everyone is a part of building. Remember, be a hundred of us. It would just sit down and have a meeting and just discuss what's happening. One of us will come over solution. And one of us will help everyone else figure out how to find water or how to build a better society.

And we know this because historically this has always been true.

Whenever it's called apps, infrastructure collapses. Which analogy do you think is collapsing in the United States Empire? The United States Empire is collapsing, yes. And who is taking its place? No one could take the place of the American Empire.

So we live in a unipolar moment.

And the closest historical analogy to today is something called a branch edge collapse.

The Bronze Age. The Bronze Age collapse. And this happened about over 3,000 years ago. And what happened during the Bronze Age collapse is that you have these established kingdoms throughout the Middle East and Europe.

You're imagining Greece. You had a high-tight empire in Anatolia, which is present day turkey. You had the Mesopotamian Empire, yet the Egyptians. And one by one, they collapse. Now, reason why was that up-of-extorm of calamities came at the same time.

There were earthquakes. There were famines. There were Islamic crisis. There were wars. There were civil wars.

There were revolutions. And so you have this massive surge of refugees called the C. People's. Clowing from north and west Europe and sweeping entire... ...subbing food to the entire Middle East. And the reason why is they were hungry.

They didn't have any food to eat. So they organized into these large-powered armies. And they overwhelmed entire civilizations. And so we'll see a very similar dynamic play out in the world where, in the future, our concern won't be wars.

Our concern will be these millions of refugees who want to flood into our societies, because they're hungry. And they're going to come from Africa. They're going to come from the Middle East. They'll probably come from South America as well. So I saw your show with Steve King, by the way.

Steve King. Yeah, it was a great show, right? And he talked about this. Where, look, the world depends on fertilizer.

And there's eight billion people on the world.

A lot of fertilizers. The world can only sustain at most two billion people. Well, what are the six billion people going to do? Just start to death? No, they're going to migrate.

And they're going to want food. And this is going to create a huge global crisis throughout the world. I mean, one might argue that with the rise of things like AI and robotics, the cost of production is going to drop and there's going to be more, you know, Elon talks about the age of abundance and all these kinds of things.

But you have to go food out of the ground.

And you are using fertilizer to maximize the landscape passage to go food. So you know our fertilizer, you don't have as many robots as you want. They're not the eat food, we're the eat food. So what is your own, you talked about hopefulness? Right.

Are you hopeful? I'm very helpful. What are you hopeful for? I believe that humans are first and foremost creative and resilient.

Our abilities have become dormant because we've become too complacent.

Western, lifestyle have made us extremely lazy and fat. And but the moment we're presented with a crisis, the moment that we find our families in danger, we're able to come together as a people. And come up with all this tremendous imagination in order to make a better society.

Make sure you keep what I'm about to say to yourself. So I'm inviting 10,000 of you to come even deeper into the diversity. Welcome to my inner circle. This is a brand new private community that I'm launching to the world.

We have so many incredible things that happen that you are never shown.

We have the briefs that are on my pad when I'm recording the conversation. We have clips we've never released. We have behind the scenes, conversations with the guests. And also the episodes that we've never ever released. And so much more.

In the circle, you'll have direct access to me. You can tell us what you want this show to be. Who you want us to interview and the types of conversations you would love us to have. But remember, for now, we're only inviting the first 10,000 people that joined before it closes.

So if you want to join our private close community, head to the link in the description below or go to d-o-a-c-circle.com.

I will speak to you there. Professor, what's the most important thing we haven't talked about that we should have talked about? So let's talk about the nature of reality. To explain the nature of reality. I'm going to explain Plato's ego the cave.

Which he talked about in his book, The Republic. Right exactly. This book. Yes, The Republic. One of the masterpieces of quick civilization as well as question civilization.

All right, so this is how Plato explains the nature of reality. And so he's a metaphor called the cave. So I want you to imagine a dark cavern that is huge. And in this cavern, there are hundreds of people lying up together. And they're also in a rope and this goes on for it, you know, miles and miles.

Just thousands of people. And they are chained to the ground. And the next are shackled. So they can actually move. And all they can do is steer in front of them at a giant wall. That's empty.

Okay.

Now, behind these people, and again, they can't see behind them, right?

It's a great fire. Along the alongside the fire are people, okay? We don't know who they are.

They don't tell never explain who they are. They take puppets.

And they project these puppets all the fire onto the wall. Okay. And when people see the shadows, they think that this is reality. And as such, they begin to create narratives to explain this reality. They create language. They give shadows names.

They explain what these shadows come from. They create religion. Then these people decide to specialize. So some people who are priests who explain this new religion. There's some people who are poets that talk about the beauty of these shadows. And then you have teachers who teach about these shadows to children.

And then over time, what happens is that these people fall in love with this reality. So that they are addicted to it. So if anyone comes on and says, "Hey guys, when do you look behind you?" And see it's all just as far as these people will be so angry that they kill this person.

So I'm not sure if you've ever watched a Korean drama. Have you watched a Korean TV drama?

Not really. So unfortunately, I have. And these people go for like 1,000 hours.

And for the first 10 hours, you're disgusted by the plot.

And because it makes no sense. But by sometime, by the 20th hour, you can't stop watching it. The same situation here where it's a silly television drama. It's all fake. Once people watch too much of it, they want it to be true.

And that's a nature of reality that we live in. So some things to remember is that what crisis reality are not the people in charge. What crisis reality is our imagination.

Okay.

And this is something that neuroscientists have confirmed. So what we're going to do is we're going to take place out of the cave, the framework, and then apply to our reality. Do you understand how it's created?

Okay. So in the first layer, you need a power of force to put people in change.

And this is what we call the military industrial complex of America, as well as the empire. So going back to this example, it's the layer that puts the people into change. But now the second step is you need people to create the reality, to do what's attention, to create the game. And these people are at the financial elite, the bank of international settlements, based in basal.

So what do they do? These people are the ones who set the exchange currency rates. And they also allow for seamless financial transactions, the swift system, basically. Then Wall Street and the Save London were the finance seers. And then you have the Federal Reserve Federal Reserve System. These are Federal Reserve, all the people who print money.

Okay. Now, once you create the rules of the game,

you need to create the game itself, which is global economy.

Right? Global economy. And obviously, this is a pretty vast system that encompasses everything, okay? Now, yet the extent of people how the global economy works. You cannot tell people, oh, really, they're the secret people, where he understands that a projecting shadow is onto wall.

So what you do is you create multilateral organizations that pretend to control the global economy. And they are the Wall Bank, behind nations, WTO. You make it believe that this is all being controlled impartially for our benefit. Now, you have to convince people that the system is legitimate, that way actually seeing the shadows on the wall, they're real.

That's why you need the media.

That's why you need cultures, such as Hollywood, movies, basically.

And you need education, school system. Okay? These are the people who are all prisoners who have become leaders of the prisoners and who are helping understand the shadows on the wall. So am I in the media? Yes, you are. Am I? Yes. So am I, what am I doing?

Where are my own other people in the fire controlling the narrative?

Is that what? Yes, yes. But I'm not owned by anybody. That's what you think. Oh, really? Who am I in by? Ultimately, it's a people who control a fire that are in charge, right?

So ultimately, it's these people, the second layer. The game masters, the financial lead, that can fall everything. And the financial lead, again, are like the World Bank, you said? No, no, the financial lead are these part of bankers. Okay, so the private bank is controlling me, because you said I was in the media.

Do you want to make money? Yeah. Then they control you. Okay. Right.

How do they control me? Because if they control the question of money. And so now that you have the media, the schools and the cultural systems, helping people understand the shelves of the wall, these shelves now become internalized. And they dictate the values and norms of people.

And they believe to be good and bad. They dictate habits and customs, how you live your life.

And they dictate the legal system, who's punished for what?

Okay? And this becomes a top edifice.

And what's amazing about the system is that in our minds,

in our minds, we believe that the system is first of all the complete opposite, where the foundation is actually the laws, the habits and the values. When in fact in reality, these are just things of our imagination. Okay? Let's point one.

Point two is that this is a very delicate structure. So if anyone doesn't cooperate, okay? Then this is this edifice collapses. It's a very, very delicate system, okay? And the third thing, and this is more important to understand the world that we live in,

as this becomes much more wobbly. Meaning that young people don't really believe in the shelves anymore. Young people grow up and says, "Hmm, are these shelves really real? Don't feel real to me?" The system needs to become much more authoritarian.

It needs to force people to believe what they refuse to believe.

Because everyone in the system is incentivizing to ensure this edifice is stable. Do you think this is somewhat linked to what's going on with independent media? Exactly. Because independent media are asking a lot of questions about the way society functions exactly. And that's why we're seeing governments become very worried about independent media.

Because if you have people on the population saying, these shelters are fake, this creates a ripple effect. It causes people to start questioning these shelves on the wall. You can't have that.

So that's why it's important to have censorship.

That's why it's important to de-platform people. That's why you have work politics, D.E.I. This is an important mechanism. Yeah, I mean, it is pretty hard. It's pretty, it's not easy being an independent podcaster.

If you have a big platform, because you're not always the most loved by the mainstream media.

And they'll figure out how to eventually-- But I think that's very human actually. I think incentives are quite understandable from a human perspective. Look, if you look at the system, no one's really in charge, and no one's a villain.

They just grow up in the system-- And events protecting their incentives. Exactly. That's kind of what I mean. I'm like, yeah, human nature is to protect one's incentives.

And the media didn't like Mark Zuckerberg in Facebook, because 80% of 70% have had work revenue went to Google in Facebook. So they had a bit of a war. So I kind of get it. People are trying to protect what's theirs.

And disruption causes people to panic a little bit. But makes sense.

What the problem is that over time, more and more young people in the group

and say, I don't see shadows. I'm pretty sure we're being lied to. In which case, this person's an opportunity to overthrow the system and create a new system. And this is why AI is important.

But we currently believe this one. We currently believe in this structure. It's almost-- it's really difficult, I think, for the average person listening now to accept the fact that they have believed a bunch of fundamental ideas and stories.

That everything they care about is sad upon. But I mean, you only-- if you've read the book, say, and understood that humans got here because we've had a remarkable ability to believe in stories that maybe the orangutan could not believe. It couldn't believe in money and governments and religions and all these kinds of things.

It makes perfect sense that, yeah, there's really foundational stories where you are accepting.

And that's what's brought us here today.

That's what keeps me from running out on the street without our clothes on, or doing other illicit activities. I'm held in place by set of stories that I've accepted. And they are stacked one upon the other. To make me believe that everything I'm seeing and accepting is valid.

But, you know, I guess the question becomes, Am I okay with this reality? And what's up in us from creating our own reality that benefits everyone? Is that possible?

Well, in theory it's possible, but as you point out, there's certain people who are happy with the system and want to maintain the system. And that's why we're going to wars around the world. It's not just a war between different nation states.

It's also a war for the fundamental nature of reality. You have the bankers versus the tech roles, right? That's what we're seeing in the world right now. Where for the longest time, Wall Street as Control America,

but now with the, with the Trump Revolution, you have Palantir. You have people like Larry Ellison, Peter Thiel, Sir, an old man who want to create options stargate, which gives them completely control over people's imagination. You cannot create it now.

Okay. And everything will come down eventually, because that is just the fundamental fact of human history. Everything, no matter how stable it seems in the beginning, it all comes crashing down eventually.

Eventually. Eventually. Yes. Ray Delia talks about the cycles through history and how predictable they are and how frequent they are.

Is there a frequency to the rise and fall of these?

I guess perceived realities or empires as he calls it. Yeah, so they say empires last around 20 years. And so we are now in a twilight of the American Empire. And what we know is that when empires decline,

it's always for the same reasons.

And it's always because of too much debt, too much corruption, too much inequality. And we're seeing that in America today. And the other thing that we know is you can't actually stop the decline of empires.

Oslo Spangler, who is a German theoretician,

he argues that we are human beings.

And we have natural life cycles because we're organisms. Well, societies are the same way where empires, they will be born, they will rise, they'll die.

And it's a good thing because that's what allows for constant human innovation.

Do you think that will happen in my lifetime? I'm 30 years old, 30 years old. And they have been in everyone's lifetime. It may happen next to five or ten years. We are seeing.

Do you think that's going to happen in the next five or ten years? I think there's very strong possibility that the American Empire will collapse in the next five or ten years because it is overstretch. It into much debt. And it is really angling in the entire world.

It's basically unifying in the entire world against it right now.

And if it is to be the case, what would you give me as advice as a 33-year-old? What action should I be thinking about taking now? Based on what you know about history, to make sure that it's not too bad for myself? I guess I'm asking this question in light of you predicting that there might be a collapse of the Western or the American Empire.

And in such scenarios, what it would look like to be an American. And is there a solution, of course, if behavior one should take in such a scenario? But I guess that's the key question which is if the US Empire does collapse,

how does American life change or Western life change?

Okay. So one theory that's very important to understand is someone called Hamedic Philosophy. And Hamedic Philosophy is what underpins Plato's out of the cave. And Hamedic Philosophy comes from Egypt. And it has sort of some principles.

But its main principle is that reality is energy. It's vibrations. Okay. So we think of it as material when material is a consequence of energy. Right?

So what this means is that reality is consciousness itself. So our thoughts or what's real. Our bodies are just vehicles to experience the world around us. But they're not real. When we die, our souls return to the source.

And we come back again. And we're here permanently in order to experience things. We cannot experience in a spiritual world based on spiritual world. It's not material. So what's really important is to appreciate that every one of us is part of the source.

And so we think about the totality of things. We can only become responded. We can only give up hope. But we think about how individually we can become a better person. And how we can impact the people around us.

Then that becomes reflected onto the reality itself. Because we're just part of God itself. Right? So the idea is as above, so below, as below, so above. Meaning that we are each and everyone else fractals of God.

So we choose to make a good person. This makes the world a better place. We choose to be a bad person. It also makes the world a worse place. So it's not really about how can I stop these wars from happening.

But you cannot. It's not really about where can I put my money to make generate more income. Because that's not going to happen.

It's really about how do I live my life to the fullest?

How do I become a much more creative individual that brings goodness to the people around me? And if you do that, you're changing the world every day for the better. That's a nice message. That's a very nice message. And I agree.

And it's really interesting. I was building to a couple of physicists out. And you say similar things regarding about consciousness. And it really has stuck with me. A lot of things people say, you know, sometimes because I learn so much doing this.

That I forget them. But the idea that we're all part of the same consciousness.

And that I think someone said to me a physicist to me that it's always like consciousness.

Divided into lots of little pieces. Fractals. It could experience the world or view the world. And I found that to be a really compelling idea. Weirdly, I was thinking about this in the day.

I was in a European country. And I was driving in attacks and I looked out the window. And you had all of these like tourists. Just stood at the edge of the water. Or just like looking up and looking around.

And I just for a second thought of it. Thought of them as like little pieces of consciousness exploring the world. Because they were like looking up and looking at mountains and looking at the ocean and looking at the floor. And it don't only for a second that that might just be consciousness. It is manifestation for sort of, I guess, expiration.

Which is really interesting idea. I don't necessarily know what it means.

It does create a little lot of empathy.

So one, one area that you might want to explore is a cabala.

So what's this cabala thing? Right. It's what they call the true of life. And then the true of life.

It's what you're trying to say is that it's a dynamic in the world.

That governs all human fears. And this dynamic is thesis and tithesis, synthesis. So God is the will to bestow creates Adam Kanman who is the will to receive. And then Kanman has to abandon God. Just does the showing the world. But eventually because the world is destroyed.

And then Kanman and his descendants us recognize the five of our ways. And beg God for forgiveness. And this will redeem the world. We peer the world. And if you think about it, okay?

This is what underpins a lot of actions that is happening in the Middle East. Where this really is, are doing what they're doing. They're just trying to force the hand of God. Meaning that, okay. If issues come in all these atrocities in the Middle East.

It's going to all these wars. Eventually, the world will have to punish the issue that the issue leads. There'll be war between the world and the issue. And the issue will be humble. But once the issue is humble, everyone in the issue will recognize the folly of his or her arrogance.

Heubers. And then we'll beg God for forgiveness. And what's that that no one happens when all people in the issue at the same time beg God for deliverance and for forgiveness. The world will end.

And we'll return to paradise. That's literally what they believe. We're going to have to stop there, Professor. Okay. We have a closing tradition where the long-skest leads a question to the next guest.

Not knowing who they're leading it for.

And the question left for you is, who will you miss the most?

And why? Well, I will miss my wife the most. Because I met my wife about ten years ago. And this was a time my life when I had hit rock bottom. I went to Yale and so I have a very elevated sense of myself in my abilities.

And so I went into the world thinking that I would conquer it.

And after decades of failure, I basically became very depressed.

Failure. Yes, I didn't have a job, meaning I didn't have much income, meaning I didn't have much hope in my life. And so I was working as a teacher and in full mutual acquaintance, I met my wife. And I think that it was because I became so depressed that my heart I begged for relief. I begged God, even though I don't believe in God, for salvation and redemption.

And my wife came as an angel. And what she did that no one else did before was she loved me unconditionally. She was kind to me. She told me to believe in myself. And she proved it by making the ultimate sacrifice and having a child with me.

It's one thing to say, "I believe in you. I love you." But it's another thing to have a child about person. And so that changed me totally. And I said to myself, "I can't despair anymore.

I have to work hard at the provide for my family." And at this time I was thinking that maybe I could help children's students go to Yale. Like, you know, in trying to consolidate as a huge business, where if you help package a kid,

you get to the Yale, you get about a million dollars.

That's a lot of money, right? And she told me you can't do that.

You have to be true to yourself and you have to be true to our son.

That's a good example for him. And so what happened was that I got a job as a high school teacher. And then I started to make these YouTube videos. And then it blew up online. And this was not something that we expected.

It's not something that we planned for. It just happened organically. So it was my wife. Just by saying, "I love you to me." And I knew it to be true because we had a child together.

But I didn't kind to me. It changed me forever. And that's what empowered me to want to share myself with other people as well. And so I don't know how I will ever affect my wife. I'm forever grateful for her.

And I don't, I don't, before I did really mind the English world.

I don't want to leave this world anymore because I don't want to separate fro...

Could you have expected that you'd have the success you've had online?

You've got to almost two and a half million subscribers on YouTube alone.

Get a million to millions of millions of views on your videos. I mean, some of your videos have almost 10 million views on various channels that you've been on. You've only made 146 of these videos. And your channel has grown immensely. Could you have imagined?

I did. You did imagine. Yes. You thought it would go like this. Not this big.

But I imagine, you know, I would find people who believe in what I was doing. It would be inspired by what I was doing.

And I knew this because when I met my wife and I found love for the first time.

We love each other unconditionally. My imagination started to open up. I could see and feel things that were not available to me before. And it was as though I became much more connected to the source. I became much more connected to the universe.

Now universe was given me insights as to how to proceed. And so I had one day in inspiration. Let me start our YouTube channel. And let me make stupid predictions and see what it goes. Because if I'm right, then I'll be pretty famous.

If I'm wrong, then I'm an idiot. But what gave me the courage to imagine all this was again the love of my wife. So that's why I say kindness and love. So I did imagine this, but not to the extent that, you know, my YouTube channel has blown up. You've only been doing it about a year.

I don't think I've ever seen someone get to turn half million subscribers in a year.

Especially making a geopolitics and it's mainly geopolitics, isn't it?

And history videos in a year, that's crazy. But I will tell you this. It has not changed me because being with my wife, having a family, I know my mission is to share myself with others. So I could easily create a media education company, like Jordan Peterson,

and start my own university. I don't want to do that. I want to share myself with others. I want to constantly learn. I want to constantly ask questions.

I want to be overminded. I want to be brave for my wife and my family. And so yes, I did succeed, and I think I think the universe for letting me succeed. And I think most of all, the fact that I succeeded in age and at a time when I can focus on a mission and ignore the fame, the wealth, the status. You happy?

I'm very happy with my family, because it's my wife and my children who bring me tremendous happiness in the world. If they close it down tomorrow, and they might, I wouldn't be at all unhappy. Because I could just go and create more videos.

What matters is a source of my creativity, which is my love I have for my family.

That is beautiful. Really beautiful. I mean, it's really self-evident in the value you're giving to people. Because the amount of people that showed up in my comments section and demanded that you come here, was staggering.

In fact, that's actually how I learned about you. It was just for your name so much in the comments section. So I was like, "Here's this guy." I don't want YouTube to look around, then I found these videos and I got served them because I clicked on them and then I went down and ran that hole like everything else. Just to warn you.

I am a polarizing figure. So people also, really, it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter. Listen, I sit here with people really regardless of that stuff.

And I think that's important and quite rare.

So I've sat with Kamal Harris or Gonca Trump or Gavin Newsman or Michelle Obama. For me, it's really about the pursuit of truth rather than being captured too much by all the blocks that we have on the table. Thank you for doing what you do because you're demystifying and you're giving a perspective to the world. And I think one of the things you do that really has can help people is you're able to break things down in visual ways that allow people like me who aren't the best when it comes to books and textbooks and weren't necessarily very good in school to understand concepts in a simpler way.

And really to bring them to life and ways that make them actionable and relevant to our lives. And so long they carry on doing that. And that's such a message that I hope people understand like everyone has capacity to learn the truth from self or herself.

It's only a question of desire and will.

Thank you. Thank you.

I'm Charisa and my experience in all entrepreneurs is starting a shopping trip.

I'm going to shop for the first day.

And the platform makes me no problem.

I have a lot of problems but the platform is not one of them.

I feel that shopping trip is a platform that can only be optimized.

Everything is super integrated and balanced.

And the time and the money that I can't invest in there.

For all in VaxTum.

Now, the shopping trip is on the top of the shop.de.
