Should the rise of conflicts across the Middle East and Ukraine serve as a warning sign that something much more dangerous is approaching?
According to Jim Rickards, the CIA's Asymmetric Warfare Advisor, the answer is yes.
In a startling interview he reveals that all 16 U.S. Intelligence Agencies have begun to prepare for World War III.
Making matters worse, his colleagues believe it could begin within the next 6 months.
However, the ground zero location for this global conflict is what makes his interview a must-see for every American.
Take a few moments to watch it below and decide for yourself.
[VIDEO] JIM RICKARDS- Financial Threat and Asymmetric Warfare Advisor CIA & Pentagon
But Russia is not traditionally an asymmetric adversary, right?
What’s this guy selling?
So what is the gist of the video? (aside from buy my product)
What’s this guy selling now? Or does he write for DEBKA?
Jim Rickards is just another voice to express danger of Russian war with Ukraine.
WWIII In my humble opinion is going to start within the next 6 months but not where anyone expects it.
If we want to look at the major flash point which will throw the world into turmoil, look no further than Iran. With Yemen falling to Iranian backed rebels, and the Saudi King passing on yesterday, and Obama stopping Keystone, a strike by Iran that can disrupt the Saudis oil pipeline to the west is the flashing red light.
When you include into the mix, the recent developments in the upper Galilee with Israel and Syria and toss in Russia’s recent dealings with Iran and again, the administrations desire to leave Iran alone and what you have is an emboldened Iran who knows Washington will not do anything.
If I were a leader in Iran, I would strike tomorrow while there is still confusion in the Saudi Kingdom.
Eventually... you find they’re peddling a newsletter for &79 a year.
One of the first recommended investments (This seems to have been made ~ 6-8 months ago)... was to buy a fund that 2X Shorted the Dollar vs the Euro.....
Well... that bet would have been a bust. You’d be DOWN about 35% on that investment if your followed it.
I have a colleague working in Munich. He says, the news there is, daily, showing fighting around Donesk (Sp?) Whole towns are empty, a major airport is unusable.
He says (in typical German fashion): “The entire direction of everything is exactly the opposite of a good direction”.
I don’t see much coverage over here.
Well you haven't been paying attention. Tom Brady had a press conference yesterday afternoon and nobody has been talking about anything else. You just gotta get your priorities right. /s
As far as economics I find Rickards to be pretty good but WWIII starting in the Ukraine I highly doubt. WWIII is going to be the West vs the Muslims.
