🚨Former Israeli Peace Negotiator Daniel Levy: Israel’s NEXT TARGET is Türkiye🇹🇷

‘When they talk about the next target being Türkiye, part of what they’re trying to do is to create an equation where Turkey will be isolated and then Israel can go after Turkey. I’m not saying that’s the military plan for the next five years, but that is what they are now putting on the agenda.

And when you go and speak to government officials around the world, they will often say, depending on where you are, of course, we just had the Israelis in town. Wow. They were talking about Turkey the same way they talked about Iran 10-20 years ago.

Now that is partly why I think not just Turkey, but a whole host of states in the region are saying, whoa, wait a minute. The most revanchist, radicalising, destabilising actor in the region today is Israel, because it has this extremely overambitious agenda of how it wants to reshape the region.

What Israel’s betting is that even if that conversation is beginning to take place, the states of the region won’t be able to come together to offer any kind of collective containment or deterrence of Israel and therefore that Israel will be able to advance this project. That’s the bet it is placing.’

“Turkey🇹🇷 is the new Iran.”

-Israel’s leader of the opposition and likely the next Prime Minister of Isrsel Naftali Bennett

If Israel achieves it goal of turning Iran into a failed state, Israel’s total hegemony over the region will be blocked by one country: Türkiye.

Israel is already setting up the propaganda and rhetoric for a coming war on Türkiye, for even more regional destruction and death.

—Veteran Haaretz columnist Gideon Levy on Going Underground

Because looking at it might make them uncomfortable. It's much easier to accuse the whole world of anti-Semitism. How can you say the whole world is anti-Semitic if you have no clue what's going on in Gaza?'

REMINDER: Netanyahu clearly said he is on a ‘historical and spiritual mission’ and says he connects with the Greater Israel vision ‘very much’.

The goal for the past 3 decades has been to turning the regional powers surrounding it into failed states to pave the way for Israeli Lebensraum.

To achieve a Greater Israel, Israel must annex land from Palestine, Jordan, Lebanon, Syria, Egypt, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, and even a part of Türkiye.

After Iran, the next large-scale planned Israeli war will be against Türkiye, either through overt warfare, proxy warfare, or a mix of both.

If Israel still has not managed to make Iran collapse, with Türkiye, the largest military force in the entire region, Israel will be biting off more than they can chew.

🚨Former Pentagon Advisor Jim Rickards on Strait of Hormuz Crisis: MASS STARVATION & INDUSTRIAL COLLAPSE Are Next.’

'The Strait of Hormuz has been closed for 56 days. That's 20% of the world's oil and energy, and a high percentage of the world's liquid natural gas.

When the war started on February 28th, there were oil tankers already headed for South Korea, Japan, Australia, New Zealand, Malaysia and India. I call it a floating pipeline. That pipeline has now gone to zero.

Nine weeks in, we're going to start seeing refineries and industrial plants shut down. And this is not like throwing a switch you can turn back on. Even if the Persian Gulf opened tomorrow, which it will not, it could take weeks or months to get refineries going again.

For the Global South, the crisis runs deeper. They're heavily dependent on nitrates from the Persian Gulf for fertiliser. This is the planting season. If you can't fertilise the fields, you can't plant your crops. We're looking at potential mass starvation on top of industrial collapse.'

— Former Pentagon Advisor and Guest Lecturer at Johns Hopkins University, James Rickards, on the latest episode of New Order

🚨Why the prolonged closure of the Strait of Hormuz will cause MASS STARVATION & INDUSTRIAL COLLAPSE:

Over 30% of global urea, the fertiliser that produces most of the world’s corn and wheat, is exported through the Strait of Hormuz. A global urea shortage means an inability for nations to produce crops at scale. Higher fuel costs make what’s left unaffordable.

3.4 billion people live in countries already spending more on debt than on health or education. Prolonged higher energy costs could result in less spending on public services, and worse, financial collapse for indebted states.

Since 20% of the world’s oil and gas transits through the Strait of Hormuz, usually 20 million barrels per day, and pipelines bypassing the Strait only have a maximum capacity of approximately 8 million barrels per day, the math is crushing…

There is no alternative and the gap is simply unbridgeable. A global industrial collapse is unavoidable if the Strait of Hormuz remains closed.

About 85% of polyethylene exports from the Middle East go through the Strait. Shortages and backlogs will raise the price of packaging, automotive components, and consumer goods.

The semiconductor industry and Taiwan’s vulnerability: Roughly 37% of its LNG comes from the Middle East through Hormuz. TSMC produces approximately 90% of the world’s most advanced chips. Prolonged closure of the Strait could result in the collapse of the AI and advanced technology industry.

🚨Former Pentagon Advisor Jim Rickards: 'The US🇺🇸 and Russia🇷🇺 Are Building a Global Oil DUOPOLY.'

'Russia pivoted after 2022 sanctions and started selling oil to China instead of Germany. That relationship has expanded, but it is not big enough to replace what we are talking about: the oil tankers and seaborne cargoes.

China is even more vulnerable than the Persian Gulf situation suggests, because the United States has struck a very high-level military alliance with Indonesia, which controls the Strait of Malacca.

Trump may actually want the Strait of Hormuz closed. The United States has said that even if Iran declared free commerce tomorrow, the US Navy is still sitting there.

Look at the bigger picture. The United States has taken over Venezuelan oil. By extension, they have Guyana's oil. They are opening up Alaska, issuing oil and natural gas drilling permits as fast as they can and have taken control of the Panama Canal from China. The Strait of Hormuz is closed.

If you do not have oil from the Persian Gulf, you can pretty much only get it from the US and Russia.'

🚨Alastair Crooke: US🇺🇸 move to control Middle East’s and Venezuela’s oil is to avert its own FINANCIAL CRISIS

‘The US needs collateral to underpin all of these liabilities on their bank sheets. And so they need resources.

They need the oil of Venezuela, they need the Arctic, they need the Middle Eastern resources partly, just to reinforce, because when you get to the end of your leverage, you can’t give more credit until you get more assets on your balance sheet.

And so they want the assets of Venezuela and the Middle East on their balance sheets so they can lend more and therefore take more resources, buy and lend to countries that have resources and then use those for further expansion.

Everything is about expansion. America thrives on expansion. And so all of these things are connected by that.

America is getting overwhelmed by its deficits and is getting anxious and very antsy about the fact that there seem to be problems in the credit markets, in the shadow banking area, in things we’ve seen like subprime auto loans now, a number of companies have gone bankrupt, so they don’t know what’s there.

And so I think that’s why they’re trying to pull in money as fast as they can.’

🚨Former Pentagon Advisor Jim Rickards: 'The BRICS Currency Is Called GOLD and Russia🇷🇺 Proved It Works.'

‘The BRICS have a currency. It is called gold. BRICS have the institutions. They replicated the Bretton Woods institutions on their own terms. They have the New Development Bank, which is the equivalent of the World Bank. They have a Contingent Reserve Fund, which is the equivalent of the IMF. They have built up their own payment channels.

If you want the yuan to be the global reserve currency, it has nothing to do with the currency itself. It has everything to do with the bond market. Show me the Chinese bond market. It scarcely exists.

Officially, India’s gold holdings are relatively modest compared to the United States, Russia and China. The big winner in gold is Russia. That is one of the ways they got through the Ukraine War sanctions. At the beginning of the war in Ukraine in 2022, Russia had about $600 billion in reserves. $150 billion of that was in physical gold bullion. That helped Russia weather the storm.

The US, EU and NATO seized about $200 billion of Russian reserve assets held in custody in Brussels. It was completely illegal, but they did it. It hurt Russia to some extent. But ironically, that seizure caused a run to the gold market.'

‘China🇨🇳 can ABSOLUTELY engage in commercial normal satellite services with ANY country in the world…period.’

—Victor Gao on allegations China is supplying Iran with satellite data for targeting US🇺🇸 bases in the Middle East

‘Allow me to remind your global audience that Financial Times of the UK now is owned by Japanese interests. I will not be surprised if you see Japanese fingerprints in such sensational allegations.

Allow me to also to mention China has tremendous amount of commercial satellite services, many of which are open to international cooperation. And it will not be surprising if any country in the world, including Iran, may have signed up for satellite services by China.

This is completely normal, absolutely legal, nothing illegal, nothing illicit, nothing to be hidden from.

So I hope the editors of Financial Times will wake up and free themselves from potential Japanese insidious influence and tell the truth to the world.’

🚨Victor Gao: China🇨🇳 is NOT supplying weapons to Iran, Iran is on its way to SUCCESSFULLY DEFENDING itself against the US🇺🇸 and Israel

‘China calls for an immediate end to this war, and China applauds and very much is opposed to a war of aggression.

China’s support to Iran has been unequivocal, very explicit. And this is the reason why Iran has been expressing thanks to the very strong and consistent Chinese support.

China, I think, believes Iran still has enough wherewithal to defend its sovereignty and territorial integrity.

And I don’t think there has been any specific request from Iran for Chinese military help. And this is the reality. So I’m firmly opposed to any allegation that China is supplying weapons to Iran.

Iran is fully capable of defending itself because it keeps demonstrating and surprising many countries by the kind of weapons, either drones or missiles, or even missiles with a range of up to 4000 kilometres and all kinds of warheads that they can carry.

And I think Iran is on its way to successfully defending its sovereignty and territorial integrity, regardless of the massive amount of losses, including loss of life, that the United States and Israel have inflicted on Iran.

Iran has not requested for any military aid from China, and China does not supply weapons to a country at war.’

Victor Gao: ‘When China🇨🇳 got involved between Iran and Saudi Arabia🇸🇦, you got PEACE. When the US🇺🇸 and Israel got involved…you get hostility, WAR, confrontation, DESTRUCTION. So the choice is very obvious for Middle Eastern countries.

I hope when the dust settles after this war of aggression against Iran, the Iranians and the Arabs will shake hand again, preferably with Chinese intervention and mediation and they may cement their friendship and cooperation for decades and centuries to come.

Because it will be suicidal for the Sunni Arabs and Shiite Iranians to be at each other’s jugular.

It will be much better if they can recognise each other, respect each other, shake each other’s hand and engage in cooperation with each other rather than as some other countries are leading them in the wrong direction, being hostile with each other, trying to destroy each other, get to each other’s jugular.

That will not be a better Muslim world at large.’
