Jonathan Roth has nearly two decades of broadcasting experience as a producer and executive working for outlets ranging from CTV and OMNI Television to Mauldin Economics and Geopolitical Futures.
He has produced and/or hosted long-format conversations with individuals such as Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper, former Mexican President Vicente Fox, Zimbabwean President Robert Mugabe, former U.S. House Speaker Newt Gingrich and former Mossad director Efraim Halevy.
Roth is also a documentary director, most recently directing “China On Top: How China Is Using America’s Playbook To Take Over The World” featuring former U.S. Under-Secretary of Defense Michael Pillsbury and Nomi Prins, a former Managing Director of Goldman Sachs.
This speech was given at the Capitalism & Morality seminar in Vancouver, Canada, on Saturday, 21 July 2018.
It wasn’t worth it. I watched the whole thing. It’s just a lot of hand wringing by a Canadian. It got 2K upvotes and about 500 down votes. That’s not a good ratio. Don’t waste your time.
I don’t know what the tipping point will be or when it will happen.
But sooner or later, we will either give it back to the leftist ‘tards in triplicate or just bend over and assume the RINO position.
Excellent objective analysis of the political environment. I enjoyed watching this video. Well worth the time invested.
The difficulty arises in that the sides are not easily identified.
I use Jesus’s statement, “You shall know a tree by the fruit it bears.”
I could never side with a person that does not recognize the sanctity of life at both ends of the spectrum.
On the other hand, greed to the extreme is not a good fruit either.
It is my prayer that people rise above the fray by finding God in their hearts and gaining the knowledge that surpasses all understanding. May there be Peace for All.
“The difficulty arises in that the sides are not easily identified.”
But that is exactly the nature of any civil war. You could be fighting your brother or your neighbor.
Like domestic violence, it’s one of the nastiest business.
A sort of meandering but interesting talk. He concludes that it's not likely, but economic upheaval could change that.
Click bait no thanks

Speak for yourself. Everything one clicks on is “click bait”.
You’re right.
You are correct.
80 House members just signed on to a bill calling for straight up communism, a centralized takeover of economy, energy, food, income, transportation, housing, etc.
What more warning of looming civil war do you want?
Nor are the geographical boundaries apparent. Neither will it be clear which party will have the benefit of the federal government, or our nation's military forces, although those institutions will almost certainly fragment.
It will be Aquila48's (I can smell the salt water from here) "domestic violence" to an unimagined extreme.
And then our circumstances will be exploited by foreign forces.
They will regret pushing us toward the thin ice.
Bingo.
They are biding their time, eating away at liberties as our numbers dwindle.

I agree. Somewhat lame. Americans are too old and fat to go to war. Americans are too wealthy to do it now; the average low income American lives in more square feet that the average euro.
CW1 did not occur because of an economic collapse. But revolutions are more likely associated with economic problems. France 1789 - poor harvests. Russia, 1917 war which resulted in economic deprivation.
He did raise the question as to who would lead the war. Well no one knew beforehand in most other conflicts; the leaders just sprung up.
The American Revolution’s most proximate cause, ie the tipping event after a long train of abuses, was the British raid on the armory at Concord which led to the battles of Lexington and Concord. The second amendment is the red line. This fact that this guy didn’t mention one of the most important and obvious events in U.S. history illustrates the fact that we shouldn’t take Canadian prognosticators too seriously on this subject.
I was speaking for myself. Who asked you?

I was agreeing with you. “Speak for yourself”, I said.

Bump!
