US Now Saying They’re Just Going to Seize Russia’s $300 Billion
Citizen Watch Report ^ | Chris Black

Bretton Woods II was built on “inside money” (U.S. dollars) dominating “outside money” (hard money, gold, uranium, oil, etc.).

Seizing Russia’s FX reserve balances in February 2022 marked the beginning of the end of Bretton Woods II.

The internationally illegal precedent of Victoria Nuland and Samantha Power’s confiscation of said FX reserves to Ukraine will be the end of the end of Bretton Woods II.

People on the Left aren't just misguided in their faith in Marxism. They are also collectively and individually incompetent.

And it is the latter that is going to get us into WWIII if they are not replaced in 2024.

They seem desperate to get us into a major war.

If the US takes this action, it should not come as a surprise, given the insanity of these people, it only makes sense they will violate any and all laws or precedents when it comes to Russia.

Let’s just purposely crash the economy because we have nothing better to do with our time.
If they do it, several nations the Dems suck up to will withdraw their funds from the money markets.
They’ll of course be shocked because they live in a fantasy world where nothing like that happens and everyone likes them, but by doing this they signal to others that it will be done to them if they “get out of line”.

$270 billion for Zelenskyyy, and $30 billion for Biden?

I am no fan of China, I think we should disengage from them as much as possible, if you were the Chinese Government, you will give very serious thought of the idea if the USA does that to Russia over Ukraine, they certainly will do that to us over Taiwan.

You’re right, making this move will do nothing but crash economies and send shockwaves all over the world.

I would imagine within days after this starts up...Russian hackers will bring down the US banking system, and it won’t be a mild re-start affair.

Thats why FJB says we are closer to WW3.

Stealing 300 billion might just do it...

They have no concept that their actions can turn around to bite them one day. They don’t care, only need to succeed today, F tomorrow! Spent all the money? Steal more! Got to keep the Merry-go-round running somehow!

I think these two go hand-in-hand

That’s almost a thousand for each American.

When do we get our checks?

Russia sows the wind and reaps the whirlwind. They could keep all of their money if they just went home. It is amazing how there are some that believe that Russia has no responsibility in what is happening.

There are incompetent people in the world who are not Marxists...who aren't even political.

And there may be some Marxist somewhere who isn't an idiot. Maybe. But unlikely.

You’re right, there is no end, up to and including kinetic war that is possible if the USA takes this action.

Maybe China ups lethality of the fentanyl they send into the USA, instead of killing 100,000 Americans, it kills everyone who takes it, maybe 400,000 to 500,000 people drop dead.

Cyber-attacks would almost assuredly happen.

Anything is possible.

Russia’s promised an ‘asymmetrical response’ to the seizing of this money. Hopefully for me and my family, they limit their response to the people directly doing this crap (as in the Neocons).
