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.
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.
