Brigadier General Blaine Holt (Ret), who served as the Deputy United States Military Representative to NATO predicted a couple of weeks ago that it wouldn’t be Donald Trump getting the US out of NATO, it would be NATO removing the US. This is exactly what we’ve started to see happen, with Spain, France and Italy denying the US the use of their military bases or to even the right to fly over their airspace.
Tino Chrupalla, the Co-Chair of Germany’s right wing opposition party, AfD even suggested that the US military should immediately be expelled from all of their bases in Germany.
What Chrupalla may not know is that the Trump administration’s National Security Strategy is not opposed to that.
The Trump administration’s National Security Strategy identifies the Global Imperial Hegemon as the enemy. NATO is the military arm of the Global Imperial Hegemon and the City of London-based banking system is its financial arm. The Global Imperial Hegemon has used oil, terrorism and manufactured fear to drain the world economy of $30 trillion over the last 30 years, just in elevated oil prices, alone.
Susan Kokinda tells Blaine and Crypto Rich that Trump supports sovereign nations and he opposes regimes in the grip of the Global Imperial Hegemon, such as Venezuela and Iran.
Venezuela’s Chavista Regime was a captured operation of the CIA narco cartels and of their City of London banks. Iran’s Theocratic Regime was not indigenous to Iran and their financing of Islamic extremism throughout the world did not represent the people of Iran, it was imposed and maintained in power from the outside. The Muslim Brotherhood has its origins in the City of London.
Susan believes the existence of Iran’s Theocratic Regime has enabled Bibi Netanyahu to stay in power as long as he has, leading Israel in its designated role of helping the City of London to manipulate and control US politics and to shackle the US with the role of World Police.
She says:
“Never mind the fact that Bibi Netanyahu supported Hamas before October 7th. Israel needed Iran. Iran needed Israel. The British were running the whole thing from the top…
“Maduro had nothing to do with the interests of the Venezuelan people. The IRGC has nothing to do with the interests of the Iranian people. I would argue Bibi Netanyahu doesn’t have a whole lot to do with the actual interests of the Israeli people.
“You begin to dismantle that, and he’ll use soft power when it works. But if it doesn’t, it’s hard power. But it’s not hard power against a sovereign nation. It’s hard power against an external controlling mechanism, which has embedded itself within that nation. And that’s what he’s removing, so the nation can actually come back alive.”
Susan points out that before Trump began his hard power operation against the British capability in Iran, he’d already established a new architecture for the world, based on sovereign nations and economic sovereignty. The Board of Peace, with 60 countries in attendance included all of the major Muslim countries pledging to come together and to invest in the reconstruction of Gaza and to foster the economic development of the entire region.
Susan notes that Trump’s economics start with actual physical economic activity, whereas he Empire’s economics always start with financial control and manipulation. The US surrendered to this when it founded the Federal Reserve Bank, by taking the dollar off the Gold Standard and by accepting the WTO rules, etc.
When you surrender to them and live in their world, they have all the power and Lloyd’s of London has a monopoly.
Speaking of which, Lloyd’s of London had never refused to insure vessels in wartime throughout their 337-year history. They never stopped providing insurance for vessels traversing the Strait of Hormuz during the eight-year Iran-Iraq War or throughout the US wars from 1990 to the present, yet they announced last month that it was was “too dangerous” for them to insure ships in the Strait.
This caused Trump to break Lloyd’s monopoly by announcing that the US Government would offer insurance for the ships, which was followed by Lloyd’s warning shippers that if they took out a Trump insurance policy, they would never insure them again.
Susan says:
“So, what I would say is that what Trump is doing is shifting the overall balance of power in the world, where people who have been under the thumb of these Globalist institutions have had no way to resist them, are now operating within a world in which the fact that Globalism doesn’t work and it’s going to leave you freezing and starving in the dark, that various political forces will say, ‘No, we’re not going to do that. We have the capacity to actually fight against these forces.’”
However, Blaine warns that the Globalists are still committed to Agenda 2030 and it’s apparent that the European leadership is doing everything that it can to guarantee the financial ruin and famine of their people.
He refers to Irish journalist, Eoin Lenihan’s stark address at the European Parliament last week about how Ireland’s open-border policies and “authoritarian” settlement practices were pushing the country toward potential civil war.
Rich plays Devil’s Advocate by saying that Trump is actually working for the Globalists and that he’s furthered Agenda 2030, by triggering the close of the Strait of Hormuz, which will lead to food-rationing, fuel-rationing, energy lockdowns, 15-minute cities and digital IDs.
This argument doesn’t hold water, because the crisis is due to decades of suicidal energy policy that has robbed Europe of any resilience to what’s happening in the Strait.
Susan Kokinda tells Rich:
“What Trump has done is he simply ripped the mask off the fact that you can’t cheat Mother Nature. If you don’t produce energy, if you shut down all your nuclear plants, if you sit on the sidelines while the Strait gets closed, if you build windmills and solar panels that don’t provide enough energy to do anything, if you adopt Free Trade policies, where you have to import everything that you need, at a certain point, you might discover, guess what? That actually doesn’t work.”
TRANSCRIPT
Crypto Rich: Donald Trump is out to destroy NATO. It’s happening. That’s what we’re going to talk about in this video. Hey, Susan. Hey, Blaine. Thank you so much for making yourselves available.
Susan Kokinda: Great to be here.
Blaine Holt: Good to be here.
Crypto Rich: Yes, yes, yes. We do this once a month, and I’m so grateful to both of you for agreeing to do this once a month. Long may it continue.
And I did say a few weeks ago, or a few months ago, I said it to some cousins, I said it on this video, that I think Donald Trump is going to leave NATO, take the US out of NATO. Now, to do that, he would need a congressional vote. But he’s doing the next best thing. Perhaps he’s doing something even better, which is, what’s he doing, Blaine?
Blaine Holt: Well, you started out the podcast exactly backwards. Donald Trump’s not out to destroy NATO.
NATO’s destroying NATO. And what Donald Trump is doing is – well, actually, the Europeans have done a very good job since Donald Trump was inaugurated, even well before then, during the Biden administration, by laying out a foundational case for not being a member state of NATO.
And this started many, many years ago, when they were deadbeats and wouldn’t pay their fair share, and felt like anytime there’s blood that needs to be shed, maybe we put the American troops out there.
But it really picked up steam, once Trump gets in. And now all of a sudden, you got JD Vance who goes in and says, “Hey, warning, it’s not just about security and we do need to get this war wrapped-up. But you guys are destroying Western European values at breakneck speed. You’re rolling-up civil liberties, you’re rolling-up rights. And then you’re throwing prosperity, the other leg in the stool, right out the window. You’re committing energy suicide at the altar of Climate Change. And so we have to start evaluating our relationship.”
That should have been enough to scare Europe into sobriety. But no, no. Now, we’re at this wonderful dénouement, is what I would call it, which is, Keir Starmer has let all the camouflage and the veil slip away, along with all of his Globalist Euro buddies to say, “It’s not our war in the Middle East. We won’t be a part of this. We’re not going to back up Donald Trump. We are not going to be a part of any of this.”
But we were a part of the Ukraine fracas. And now, it’s really the Euros who are finding out that actually, the Straits of Hormuz is not a vital interest to the United States. And if we back out, at this point in time, you’re the ones who are going to have to open the Straits, not just to get gas under $30 a gallon. You’re going to have to do it to prevent a famine in the fall, when these African countries don’t get their fertilizer stocks and can’t grow enough to export. Then, you in Europe will see it won’t just be that you can’t drive your car to the grocery store. It will be that there won’t be anything, even if you were able to get there.
And so what President Trump’s going to do is start making the case, as he has on social media, probably tonight on his speech, to say, “It’s time for us to reevaluate the transatlantic relationship and whether it is truly in the vital interests of America.”
In the words of one of the opposition leaders in Germany, AfD, they said, “Well, we should expel the United States immediately from all of their basing here, in Germany.”
Couldn’t agree more! Couldn’t agree more. We’re absolutely aligned on that! And so get ready, here it comes!
I have been warning about this since Donald Trump’s first term. Europe – I was a deputy representative to NATO. I know how NATO works. I have been warning: “You are playing with fire. If you think he won’t do it.”
Look at the Congress. They’re terrified of him, because they have so punished this country with their terrible votes and not backing up Trump.
Well, now he’s going to go play American politics. And one of the deals might be, “Mr Trump, will you just take your boot off our throat, if we let you evacuate NATO?”
So, Europe, it’s your set of civil wars, if you want them, but that’s what’s coming.
Crypto Rich: Wow. Susan, you are nodding your head.
Susan Kokinda: What more can we say?
Crypto Rich: Perhaps as vigorously as you’d ever. You wouldn’t go like that, right? So, NATO, Europe’s destroying NATO.
Susan Kokinda: You have to say to these Europeans when they sit there and they say, “The war with Iran is not our war.” Do you hear what you’re saying? Are you actually listening to what you’re saying? Because it is so obvious. They dragged us into Ukraine. Donald Trump is obviously extricating us from that.
But I think what the whole exercise is doing is, I mean, Donald Trump has just ripped the mask off of everything. And anybody who is still clinging to this crazy narrative that Trump is still part of the Neocons or the Old World outlook and so on, they really just aren’t paying attention.
Because, when you look at the institutions that have served the Globalists, and NATO is obviously the military arm to this thing, and then the City of London-based financial system is the financial arm of this thing. What he has done with this war with Iran is begin to just openly dismantle the structure – or as the General said – get them to start dismantling the structures themselves.
I think he has really boxed congressmen and senators into a corner with this, now. I mean, this is really brilliant, because people who have been diehard supporters of NATO, like Lindsey Graham and that entire coterie, how can they stand there and support this any longer? Their constituents are saying, “We got no help.”
Apparently, Turkey asked for help from Poland. I guess they asked for some kind of defensive missiles. You guys probably followed it more than I have. In terms of the specifics of the military equipment, Poland said “No.” The United States called Poland and said, “Can you help Turkey? They’re actually being attacked by Iran.” Poland still said “No.”
I mean, you don’t have to make a big argument. I think Donald Trump was absolutely conscious that this is how it would play out.
Now, he’s increasingly, I think, got the political capital. I can’t remember if it was him or Rubio. I think it was him who said, “You know how much money we’ll save?” among other things, “if we get out?”
No, this is – as Keir Starmer said in his address to Parliament, I guess, yesterday, “This is a very different world.”
This is not the world that existed a couple of months ago. But it’s the world that Trump has been driving for the entire time. Everyone who watches me knows, I’m constantly counseling people, “Go back and read the National Security Strategy. Go back and read the National Defense Strategy.”
This really shouldn’t be a surprise. If you’re not trapped in some kind of TDS Narrative World, simply look at what they say they’re going to do. Gosh, then they do it.
Blaine Holt: It’s interesting to me because now you have such a sharp contrast. Europe, which has now got all of these crocodile tears of wringing their hands about wars in the Middle East that have them concerned about the humanitarian effects and causes.
And yet, Europe is sitting in a bloodbath of 2 million + dead people, and they’re still blowing up oil and refinery facilities all over, something they can ill afford to do. And if you look at the scoreboard, it’s pretty clear.
So Europe’s got a war, and I’ve described some of that damage. Donald Trump brought the United States military to bear against Iran and has eradicated any chance that Iran could ever have a nuclear weapon in perpetuity. That’s for sure.
And then, you’ve got the Free Iranian people, who it looks very, very obvious to me that there will be a new government forming soon that has nothing to do with the previous regime. You’ll probably see some IRGC leadership that would prefer to breathe oxygen and eat three square meals a day, and will join the Free Iranian people flipping to them. And then this will get taken care of, eventually.
But if you look at the difference in the two, it couldn’t be more profound. So one is strategy based. We know what the objectives are. We’re going to close out on those.
And then, Europe just simply walked into the final Donald Trump trap. And it really was a loyalty trap, which is he really understood exactly how they would react. Why? Because City of London tried to shut the Trump-Iran effort down in its tracks before it could ever get started.
How did they do that? Keir Starmer starts out with, “You can’t use Diego Garcia.”
“OK, chump, we don’t need it. But we’ll probably use it anyway, because what are you going to do?”
And then, the next thing, “Oh, you can’t use the basing up in Glasgow, Scotland.”
Refer to Note One: “What are you going to do? We’ll attack you from your own airbase called Mildenhall. Not a problem.”
So then, that doesn’t work. So then, “Oh, let’s financially close the Straits. That’ll foil Trump.”
So, Lloyds of London – that hasn’t dropped an insurance wrapper for war in their 337-year history – decides, “Oh, Straits are closed, too dangerous, can’t do it.”
And then, Trump says, “I’ll insure the boats.” And then Lloyds privately goes to the shippers and says, “You take one Trump insurance policy, and we’ll ruin this company, and you’ll never be insured again.”
So what’s the last vestige? The last vestige is, “Let’s get the Houthis back into the game. And we’ll go ahead and have them throw a missile at a ship. And then we’ll be able to shut down the Suez, too and make more trouble for Trump.”
That’s not going to make trouble for Trump. It’s going to definitely bake-in a famine in Europe. And then, you’ll get to pay $45 a gallon for gas!
The UK just took on its last vessel from the Middle East on jet fuel. There’s no more. So, here come the energy lockdowns. And this was all a Trump loyalty trap, that they took the bait immediately.
“You’re not going to use our basing,” says Giorgia Meloni, that bastion of conservatism. Spain says, “Go home, Yankee! No Rota for you! You’re not going to use it!”
And so, what they’ve done is, President Trump, before all this happened, did not have the case to make for leaving the institution called NATO, for rolling up American forces, all 76,000 of them, and the billions and billions of dollars that we invest in Europe. But now, they have. Now, they absolutely have.
Because Europe, to the American people look like ingrates. And “We were there for your war in Ukraine, and you’re not there for ours. And our war, here eradicated the world from worrying about nukes in Iran. And we needed some help in opening up the Straits, which would have helped Europe and nobody else – oh, and China.”
So now what happens? Is Europe really going to let the United States leave the Straits, and the Chinese Navy will come in and secure the straits? Because that’s what’s going to happen. That’s what will happen next. If NATO does not rally up a maritime force, get their butts down there, and keep the straits clear, well, then the Chinese Navy will do it.
Now, what do you think the Chinese expectation will be on those resources? Because, they can’t feed themselves, and they can’t gas themselves, either.
So well done, Globalists. Well done, City of London. This perhaps is your darkest moment. But I respect all enemies. And I know City of London probably has something else baked for us. It will come.
Crypto Rich: OK. Bloody Hell. I’m going to come back to the last point you just made, Blaine. I just want to give a shout-out to Vivify Mariposa. She runs this really great Substack, which is, I can’t remember what it’s called, NoFilterJustFacts.
And Susan, Blaine, Tom, EM, all of you, please forgive me. I read an article that she posted. It’s actually on the top of my X feed right now.
It finally, finally came together. It finally came together, how this is an assault on the City of London, what Trump is doing. And I listened to all of you respectfully. I was like, “OK,” I just didn’t get it. I read her article, and I’m going to be interviewing her about it. And this is what I learned from her article.
And this is to add to what you said, Blaine: City of London has made $30 trillion over the last 30 years from insurance shipping. $30 trillion.
And then, Tom has also said – and you may have also said, both of you, about how what Trump is also getting, he’s getting the say on the marginal price of oil. So, instead of oil being priced by Brent out of London, which is a paper contract, there’s no oil. It’s just paper, like the gold and silver in London, he’s going to capture the marginal price of oil, which is going to go to WTI, West Texas Intermediate. And he’s broken Lloyd’s monopoly on shipping insurance. And Lloyd’s have never, ever stopped providing insurance, even during the eight-year Iran-Iraq war.
They just raised premiums, made more money. So they stir up this conflict between Israel and Iran and all their proxies and everything, raise premiums, make some more money, let it calm down a bit, stir up conflict, raise premiums, make some more money, like they’ve been doing in Rwanda, as PD Loughton explained in a video that I did with her. And Trump’s capturing that.
And then, also the US is attacking London’s ability to make money from selling paper gold and paper silver – which, apparently doesn’t have the same physical or chemical properties as the real deal. But paper silver is not reflective.
Susan Kokinda: Who knew?
Crypto Rich: That’s right. And it’s not a good conductor of electricity like gold or silver are, right? So it just went clunk. So please do watch out for that.
And then, Blaine, what you said, that China’s now going to be, could take over control of the shipping through the Strait of Hormuz. Would China and Iran, and I imagine even the new regime in Iran, when that comes through, will be friendly with China?
Blaine Holt: Yes, they will. They will. Doesn’t it make sense?
Crypto Rich: It makes sense.
Blaine Holt: Look at the Belt and Road initiative. Oh, I don’t know that China will be hostile to the United States. So you just hold on there.
Crypto Rich: No, no, no, no. Europe, Europe.
Blaine Holt: Oh, Europe. Yes, definitely. Oh, they’re in trouble. But if you look at the Belt and Road initiative that China had set up, they’ve got very strained relations with Africa.
So they’re kind of teetering there. And now they can go ahead and fix all their problems by championing the Straits and getting all that fertilizer stuff into Africa. They’ll quickly turn around their diplomatic fortunes, there.
They’ll reestablish relationship with the new Iranian regime. They will block out Europe from any Middle Eastern oil, and they’ll take that oil. And that’s what’s obvious to me, because President Trump doesn’t even want any of our forces in the Middle East anymore.
He wants to pull them all home, because we’ve got our own hemisphere and our own sphere of influence. And to Susan’s point, read the damn NSS. It’s all in there.
It’s an ARC world, America-Russia-China. And so what zone are the Europeans in, again? Let me remember. Oh, Russia. That’s right. And they’re probably getting pissed-off, right about now that billions in their own oil infrastructure seemingly keeps getting blown up, even as far as the Baltic.
Do you really believe the Ukrainians have the ability to range and target stuff on the Baltic Sea? I do not!
Crypto Rich: Who’s doing that? The Russians?
Blaine Holt: I wonder. You know, I did read a separate article today that the UK is below 50 in its inventory of Storm Shadow missiles. Look at that.
Crypto Rich: OK. I’m now going to push back against Susan. Blaine, you can cheer me on here, right?
Blaine Holt: Go, Rich! Get her!
Crypto Rich: So, I remember the video you and I did with the National Security Strategy going through. It’s a remarkable, remarkable document, inasmuch as it’s very, very clear and very easy to read. It’s designed to be accessible, well-written and accessible.
What Trump talked about in there was the use of soft power and also not doing the work of the Global Imperialist Hegemons. But what he’s used against Iran – and also using Iran as a proxy against Israel, perhaps – is not soft power. So how does that play? He’s just a violent, militaristic, warmongering president, just like any other!
Susan Kokinda: Well, look, I mean, I think the key thing in the National Security Strategy and in everything Trump has done is that he understands that the enemy is the Global Imperial Hegemon. And that sometimes you need to use hard power against them, which is what he’s doing with Iran.
Because Iran, as your whole family of discussants talk about, has been a critical instrument in the City of London’s toolbox, both through the continuation of Islamic extremism. Pull the string, obviously going back to the Muslim Brotherhood origins by the City of London, that’s essentially what your regime in Iran had been. It didn’t represent the people of Iran.
What Trump outlines in the National Security Strategy – and it’s no different than the situation in Venezuela – yes, he supports sovereign nations. What he doesn’t support is nations that are in the grip of the Global Imperial Hegemon.
In Venezuela with Maduro, it was Dope Incorporated, the narco cartels and the financial architecture which supported them. So he pulls Maduro out and then allows Venezuela to start acting like a sovereign nation in partnership with the United States. And it’s the same thing, in terms of Iran – much more embedded, much more dangerous – because, obviously, we were talking about nuclear weapons.
But what you had with the IRGC, what you had with the Theocracy, was not something indigenous to Iran. It was something which was imposed from the outside and has been maintained in power for the past 47 years, so that you always do have that flashpoint. And I would argue, the existence of this, that leadership in Iran, is why Bibi Netanyahu could stay in power as long as he did. It was a perfect gang-counter-gang.
As long as the Israeli population is sitting there saying, “Yeah, we might be obliterated by an Iranian nuclear missile, and we’re under attack by their proxies,” like Hamas and Hezbollah and so on. Never mind the fact that Bibi Netanyahu supported Hamas before October 7th, which makes precisely the point that I’m trying to make.
I guess, from your line of work, it’s codependency. Israel needed Iran. Iran needed Israel. The British were running the whole thing from the top. And Trump is beginning to dismantle this.
And assuming this thing resolves quickly and relatively cleanly, which obviously still remains to be seen, but it’s obviously tilting in that direction, I think you’re going to begin to start to see some very interesting changes unfolding in Israel.
Once you remove the Iran boogeyman, which is what Netanyahu always needed to keep himself propped-up, even at points when the majority of the population was opposed to a lot of his policies. But there was never any serious opposition inside Israel, not that represented a majority, because you did always have the looming danger of “Are we going to get blown up by Iran, Hamas, Hezbollah?” the whole thing.
So I think it was a codependency. And I think what Trump is doing is taking each one of these instruments, which had nothing to do with the interests of the nation.
Maduro had nothing to do with the interests of the Venezuelan people. The IRGC has nothing to do with the interests of the Iranian people. I would argue Bibi Netanyahu doesn’t have a whole lot to do with the actual interests of the Israeli people.
You begin to dismantle that, and he’ll use soft power when it works. But if it doesn’t, it’s hard power. But it’s not hard power against a sovereign nation. It’s hard power against an external controlling mechanism, which has embedded itself within that nation. And that’s what he’s removing, so the nation can actually come back alive.
Crypto Rich: OK. Now, what of Israel? Because Israel’s attacking Lebanon to create a buffer zone in southern Lebanon. And I do get what you’re saying about Bibi Netanyahu. I listened to George Galloway. He does monologues on Sunday and on Wednesday. I think on last Sunday’s one, he said over a million Israelis have left. Now, I don’t know in what time frame. I can certainly get it over the last year. But it doesn’t seem to me like Israel is really a viable, safe state for Jews to seek refuge in.
Susan Kokinda: Well, it’s not safe. As long as it’s one of the pawns on the great game chessboard, no, it’s not. But is there a future world, where maybe it won’t be a pawn on the Great Game chessboard, and neither will Iran, and neither will any other country in the region, and they begin to work their problems out with each other?
But do it in the context of the larger architecture that Trump has created, which is the Board of Peace, and genuine economic development for the region, which is what has always been missing.
You know, back with the Camp David Accords between Rabin and Arafat, we said at that time, “If you don’t start getting shovels in the ground and start actual development projects for the Palestinians, and also start major water projects,” which is something everybody in the entire region needed – “Let’s work together to provide water for, you know, obviously a water-starved area of the world” – then, this thing is not going to hold, it’s going to get undone by all the machinations of the British and the Globalists. And that’s exactly what happened.
So, I think what’s very interesting, in terms of the way Trump has proceeded is that before we launched Operation Epic Fury, he had the Board of Peace up and running big time, you know, with 60 countries in attendance, all of the major Muslim countries, not just from inside the region, but from outside the region, coming in and saying, “We’re going to contribute to the reconstruction of Gaza, we want the entire region to begin to economically develop.”
So, before he used his hard power operation against this British capability in Iran, he’s already created an emerging new architecture for the world, which is, again, what he’s always said: sovereign nations based on economic sovereignty.
And frankly, Trump’s, you know, his whole card in all of this is his economics start with actual physical economic activity. The Empire’s economics always start with financial control and manipulation.
And if you surrender to that, which we’ve done by taking the dollar off the Gold Standard, you know, accepting the, you know, WTO rules, adopting NAFTA, allowing the Fed to run rampant – you know, if you surrender and live in their world, well, then they have all the power, you know, let Lloyds of London have a monopoly – well, if you just surrender to that, yeah, they have control.
But what if you say, “No, pardon me, we actually want to be economically sovereign. So we’re going to develop our energy so that we’re not dependent on you. We’re going to begin to support our farmers so that we are self-sufficient in the basics. And we don’t, we’re not at the mercy of a world market.”
You talk about Africa, you know, under the, you know, the whole free trade architecture in terms of the WTO and food, many of these countries, which were self-sufficient, in terms of their basic foodstuff, whether it was rice or with Mexico, corn, you know, or wheat or whatever it was, are no longer self-sufficient.
They export that, you know, to a financial system, which controls the financing. And then they’re forced to import what they need to survive, which means they remain at the mercy of this.
And Trump is basically shattering that entire system and saying, “No, let’s go back to a real world, one where nations should not only be politically-sovereign, but economically-sovereign.”
Crypto Rich: Indeed, indeed. Blaine, how do you see this playing out for Israel?
Blaine Holt: Well, it’s important to understand Israel’s role in the support of the City of London and that their role in assisting the City of London, in manipulating and controlling the US President and US politics and vectoring US resources.
You know, it’s not just about war, it’s really about the resources involved. And we wrapper this up in highfaluting statements in all of the documents, the think tank pieces, all the papers about the “United States responsibility to maintain free and open sea lanes of communication, being the champion of the Western world.” But really, what we are is a bridled donkey that’s carrying the weight of the world on its shoulders. And Israel has figured very prominently into that.
And I don’t begrudge the Jewish people who live there for wanting American resources to protect what has been a pretty hostile neighborhood over the years. But the problem is, we find ourselves in a place today where, just like our 9/11, Israel must go back at some point and visit a thing called October 7th and look at the autopsy of how all that came about and what the motivations were.
We’re seeing some of that in the Knesset, now. We’re seeing some of that, investigative-wise, now in Israel, that Israelis are now asking those questions. It’s extremely important that they don’t stop.
But I want to direct you to this other concept that has been bubbling below the surface, a very religious concept that Bibi Netanyahu always has at the back of his mind, and that’s called the Greater Zion [Greater Israel] ambition, which is their interpretation of what a biblical Israel should be with its borders.
And honestly, it’s such a fantastical idea. So what you’re saying is, you understand that willingly, Gulf States are just going to go ahead and give you their land, and Egypt’s going to surrender itself?
But when I see things like, “Hey, just for Israel’s security, we’re going to create this buffer that goes up to the Litani River, up in south Lebanon. Well, there’s a lot of really very prominent Lebanese who are saying, “I get the Hezbollah problem, but I don’t think they need to be occupying southern Lebanon.”
And no one wants Hezbollah to be escorted out the door more than the Lebanese do but I think that’s going to happen naturally, now because they’re orphaned. The Iranians are not going to keep paying the bills for these proxies to stay in business. And they’ll be orphaned and they’ll be taken care of.
In fact, orphaning Hezbollah from Iran actually puts the power back into the Lebanese hands, where that somewhat-weak country has a and I think that they will. They certainly don’t like seeing southern Beirut getting bombed all the time.
But then you’ll see other trouble crop up – and this is a very interesting thing – so you’ve got al-Sharaa, the former Jilani of Syria, who’s essentially creating a new terror state in the Middle East. Well, that’s not going to go.
And he went up to try to get favor yesterday with Germany and with the UK. That backfired in his face, because he went to them to say, “I have problems with the United States. I need your help in getting them to bend in our direction.”
Well, here’s a clue: Stop killing Christians and Americans and then, maybe we’ll get along. But both the UK and Germany told him, “No, we’re not giving you a billion dollars. And no, you’re not getting any more money. Your name is not Zelensky. We played that game. And furthermore, don’t look to us to help you with the United States, because German-American and UK-American relations have never been worse.” Well, for the Germans since World War Two, that would be.
But you see turmoil starting to subside, because the city of London is in a desperation place, having lost a full subsidiary they had in Iran, where Lloyd’s of London – and by the way, Vivify’s piece is excellent. It’s brilliant. Everybody should be reading that piece.
But then, you’ve got the emergence of a new problem in the Middle East that doesn’t match up with the vision of the Abraham Accords, at all. Does that mean it’s an American security problem? No, it sure doesn’t. It sure doesn’t!
And so, I think it’s amazing that UK and Germany would start pounding on Al-Sharaa. It’s like you probably were looking at your next military event down the road, because we’re going to say “It’s not our problem.” And that’s where this is going.
As far as Israel is concerned, I think this greater Zion movement and those borders should get tempered. But I think that’s going to take care of itself, as they start to do their own internal look into October 7th and how it came about.
I think there’s new political factions in Israel that see some of the never-reported atrocities or oppression being committed against other groups, like Christians in Israel. Certainly, Ambassador Mike Huckabee seems to be looking the other way on that. Sometimes he can’t.
But even on Easter, for the very first time, you couldn’t have the bishop go into the Church of the Holy Sepulcher because we were told that, “Oh, it was just a big misunderstanding because there’s a security threat there.”
Really? A security threat? Okay, then why was the Wailing Wall all open for business?
Crypto Rich: Yeah, which is right next door. And that was on Palm Sunday, the Church of the Holy Sepulcher.
Blaine Holt: Yeah. So the message, the insidious message is sent. But here’s the thing. What I don’t think they understand in the region is how quickly eyes are opening, here in the United States and how quickly people are starting to follow the real stories that are going on.
They’re looking well beyond the CNN cameras and going in more deeply. And so you’re not going get a rubber stamp. And it doesn’t mean that if somebody’s not going to do whatever the Hell Bibi Netanyahu wants, that they’re an anti-Semite or that they suddenly became a Palestinian overnight.
It doesn’t mean that. It means that Americans are now starting to wake up and understanding that “I can’t keep eating this popcorn cereal they want me to eat. I actually have to critically think for myself and start to understand this more.”
That’s why I think Vivify’s article is so wonderful, because it’s like, “Open your damn eyes. There is a completely different reality out there!”
But if you want to hook up to Operation Mockingbird and a bunch of deep state intel agencies that are desperate because Trump seems to be taking the initiative and gaining steam, well, then you’re in trouble, because once people get curious and open their eyes – look around you. You are only second, in the UK to Ireland, in terms of states that could collapse into civil war. And that was just brought up at the EU yesterday.
A member of Parliament for the Irish made a very articulate comment about how close civil war is, because the populations are about to snap. And when you have $40 a gallon for gas, when you have energy lockdowns, when you can’t get a stalk of celery, when you’re worried about your kid being raped on the way to school, well, you know what? Getting out there and being a part of it doesn’t seem like such a bad idea.
Crypto Rich: OK. Well, just on that, the energy lockdowns, the position that I think we three have taken is that Trump is hoodwinking the Globalists. He’s against the Globalists. People don’t get it, because they’re TDS.
Here’s another layer to it: Maybe he’s hoodwinking us, because what he’s actually furthering is Agenda 2030, that in Europe and other parts of the world, there’s going to be fuel-rationing, energy lockdowns, 15-minute cities, food-rationing. The government’s going to take care of us by depriving us of food. “There’s not enough going to be going around to have rationing. We need to have digital IDs for that.” And Trump has triggered this by his assault on Iran because he’s working for the globalists.
Susan Kokinda: Or he’s creating a space in which people who recognize that all of this is nuts can actually begin to assert real national interests. I mean, just in the past couple of days, what have you seen? Well, and I’m always going to keep coming back to physical economic reality, as opposed to the world of financial manipulations.
What Trump has done is he simply ripped the mask off the fact that you can’t cheat mother nature. If you don’t produce energy, if you shut down all your nuclear plants, if you sit on the sidelines while the Strait gets closed, if you build windmills and solar panels that don’t provide enough energy to do anything, if you adopt free trade policies, where you have to import everything that you need, at a certain point, you might discover, guess what? That actually doesn’t work.
And just in the past period, what have you had? You’ve had Germany and Merz saying, “Oh, shutting down our nuclear was a mistake.” And I guess they just announced they’re going to be building, I don’t know how much, a dozen, 20 new nuclear plants.
Crypto Rich: I think that was in April Fool’s, that post.
Susan Kokinda: Oh, that was a post?
Crypto Rich: Yeah, the 15 nuclear plants.
Susan Kokinda: But he had previously said that shutting down nuclear was a mistake.
Blaine Holt: Is that what you meant by “It’s Trump’s fault,” Rich? It was your April Fool’s joke?
Susan Kokinda: You know, even some of the social policies I saw just recently, you know, in the last couple of days in terms of Britain, they’re actually going to carry out investigations of the rape gangs, now.
Crypto Rich: Yes.
Susan Kokinda: And they’re relaxing some of their social media censorship. You know, they just said, “Well, we need to do this to go after actual criminals, not some father who’s complaining about transgender policies,” or something.
So, what I would say is that what Trump is doing is shifting the overall balance of power in the world, where people who have been under the thumb of these Globalist institutions have had no way to resist them, are now operating within a world in which the fact that Globalism doesn’t work and it’s going to leave you freezing and starving in the dark, that, you know, that various political forces will say, “No, we’re not going to do that.” We have the capacity to actually fight against these forces.
Blaine Holt: I think to add to that, don’t think for a second that they’re still not committed to Agenda 2030. And here’s what I mean by that, is the “You will own nothing and like it” crowd, they maybe can’t get their tentacles into the United States, right now but don’t mistake this: you are under controlled and managed destruction, right now. And that is where Europe is.
Case in point, you’ve got ships that are loaded with Diesel fuel, and they’re in the center of the Atlantic Ocean right now, and they were on their way to Europe to offload and they got halted in place, because a bidding war started in the Atlantic Ocean. This Diesel was already contracted to go to Europe at a particular price, but the price has wildly changed since then. And so, other countries – countries like China – have said, “Well, we’ll take that Diesel, and we’ll pay you this.”
“Oh, tear up the contract,” that company’s now motoring those boats into a different direction.
Now, do you think, if European leaders had Europeans’ best interests at heart – instead of throwing rocks at Trump – they should be standing up on the highest pyre and saying, “That’s our gas, we bought it free and clear, and you’re going to send it here.” But instead, they look well beyond the $40 a gallon of gas in Europe, and they go, “Well, I guess it’s just, you know, it’s just hard.”
In other words, they’re not championing the people because they want the pain. And if you’re in pain, then you have a dependency on the government. And if you have a dependency on the government, then let the government step in, strip your rights, give you CBDC. “Here’s how it’s going to be with the Social Credit Scores. Go ahead, say something about an Islamic invader, and we’re going to let you have it even worse.”
And so, we can go throw rocks at Trump for this all day and twice on Sunday. In fact, the new rallying cry from NATO leaders, I could hear it loud and clear today, it’s called, “How dare you?” They have adopted the Greta Thunberg method of communication!
“How dare you? How dare you call us out? How dare you shine the spotlight on us? How dare you point out that our stupid war has bankrupted us and destroyed our people? How dare you? Therefore, it’s all your fault, Trump. You did this! If we could all just have the graft and corruption, like we used to, and have the Mainstream Media sing us lullabies every single night, we’d all just be fine. But no, you want honesty! You want to show who the real thieves are!”
And apparently the thieves don’t like it. So here’s the City of London in the Louvre, taking the Hope Diamond, which is on temporary display, and they’re caught. It’s in their hands.
And they’re saying, “I know what it looks like, but that’s not it. It was Trump. He did it! You can tell he did it.”
Susan Kokinda: “Donald Trump made me do it!”
Blaine Holt: That’s exactly right.
Crypto Rich: Not Putin, it was Trump all along.
Blaine Holt: Yeah, that’s it.
Crypto Rich: Oh my gosh. Interesting times indeed. Interesting times indeed. And I just want to reference…
Susan Kokinda: Big history. Big history.
Crypto Rich: Indeed. Indeed. And also there was a court ruling yesterday or the day before that the Chagos Islands, it’s put a spanner in the works of Starmer giving away the Chagos Islands to Mauritius, because the court ruled “No, you can’t do that.” Interesting times.
And also a couple of days ago, I think, Miliband, the energy secretary in the UK, Britain is going to make sufficient energy from renewables, Susan.
Blaine Holt: Well, they all lived happily ever after.
Crypto Rich: How is he going to do that? The Government are going to categorize imported energy from gas and oil as “clean energy”.
Susan Kokinda: Because you didn’t make it there. Hey, that works.
Crypto Rich: That’s it. That’s it.
Blaine Holt: You’d rather pay triple for it.
Crypto Rich: That’s right. Instead of using our own. OK, Susan Blaine, bloody Hell. Thank you so much. I’ll have the links in the description below to where people can find Blaine and where people can find Susan.
And also, please do check out Vivify Mariposa’s article. I’ll link to that in the description below and watch out for my interview with her. It’s absolutely stunning.
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
This is Rich, Susan and Blaine signing out. All the best. Bye bye.
