You know, I have always said “a big SHTF is coming sooner or later”, but I was talking about some of this stuff with my wife yesterday and it prompted me to really step back and examine the big picture about what’s going on in the world right now. It sure looks like it’s gonna be “sooner”.
Check out the list I compiled below.
Comments?
1) Obama is supporting everything “anti-American” he possibly can. A few (of many) examples:
– arming and supporting Libyan jihadis
– arming and supporting ISIS and their allies
– refusing to arm and support Christians and non-whacko sects who are being murdered by ISIS
– American jets magically running out of ammo just before discovering an ISIS oil tanker truck convoy bound for Turkey
– encouraging illegal immigration
– actively importing jihadis into the U.S.
– having BATF facilitate arms sales to Mexican cartels (“Fast and Furious”)
– encouraging “us vs. them” mentality between races, classes, cops/non-cops in the U.S.
– brazenly violating laws and refusing to enforce ones he doesn’t like (immigration, campaign fund raising, using IRS to target political adversaries, etc) in spite of the fact that he’s legally obligated under the Constitution he swore an oath to…
– and our gutless congresscritters, judges, etc refuse to hold his feet to the fire for ANY of it
2) Iran, Russia, China, U.S., Turkey, and now France ALL involved to some extent in the Syrian civil war – in a country roughly one-fourth the size of Texas, and all players seem to be getting more and more serious about kicking somebody’s ass.
3) Hundreds of thousands of muslims literally invading and conquering Europe, setting the stage for a giant replay of the Yugoslavian civil war, likely leading to the death of MILLIONS before it’s all over
4) Turkey buying ISIS’s oil, then shooting down a Russian plane, raising the possibility that Article 5 of the NATO treaty might be invoked if/when Russia relates, which could very likely kick off WWIII
5) U.S. and Chinese navies playing “chicken” around the South China Sea, threatening to blast each other out of the water
6) U.S. debt going from $10 trillion to $18 trillion since Obama took office
7) The rest of the world actively working to ditch the “petro dollar”, meaning all oil bought and sold would no longer have to be bought with US dollars, which means nobody has any reason to use the USD as a reserve currency, and LOTS of reason to dump it (see number 5 above, and number 8 below).
8) Derivatives market ponzi scheme and the Federal Reserve’s “quantitative easing” (aka money printing) are what have been keeping the economy on life support… The 6 largest banks in the U.S. have a combined total of almost $300 trillion exposure to derivatives (28 times their total net worth). What are derivatives? Bets. Best explanation I’ve seen is here – http://www.truthistreason.net/a-simple-explanation-of-derivatives
9) More and more polarization of moral values and political beliefs in this country. People are NOT willing to “compromise” more than they already have. Ex: “gun control”. No matter what laws are passed, if even a small percentage of America’s 100million+ gun owners tell the govt to fuck off, it’s a recipe for a HUGE civil war.
10) New “superbug” genes popping up in China that makes bacteria like e.coli and salmonella resistant to ALL known antibiotics – http://www.reuters.com/article/2015/11/18/us-health-bacteria-gene-idUSKCN0T739620151118
…But yeah, all those “preppers” and other doomsayers are just crazy loons. All the sane people who believe CNN and FOX and trust their government know “it can never happen here”.
