"Things are going to get much worse," Celente says. "Society is breaking down on every level: socially, economically, politically and it's not just the U.S. It's worldwide."
Celente believes the globe is following a similar path to what occurred after the 1929 crash: Severe economic contraction, followed by currency wars, trade wars and, ultimately, armed conflict.
Currency wars have already started he said, citing the recent decision by the Swiss National Bank to peg the Swiss franc to the euro. "Trade wars are next and then real wars, unfortunately," Celente predicts.
Unlike the 1930s and 1940s, The Trends Journal publisher believes major nations will avoid direct conflict "because they can annihilate each other."
The bad news is he expects more asymmetrical warfare, including the use of weapons of mass destruction such as bio-terrorism and "suitcase nukes."

Combat between combatants were in every hemisphere of the planet, that wasn’t the case with Vietnam or Korea.
In order for there to be a world war, you have to have a global free fire zone declared.
Any German/Jap found anywhere in the world was open to attack unless they were docked in a neutral country. As soon as they left the port and left the neutral country, they were subject to attack.
Korea and Vietnam didn’t even come close to being a World War nor the Cold War conflicts. These were one by one political matches without free fire.
Free fire means open fire on sight within the rules of engagement.
Huh?
PS. Think .38 Super.
The brass ring of the marxist movement is killing the constituion and the communists are calling it “direct democracy.” One of the agenda items of the communists’ “day of rage” is direct democracy.
That way the collective interests and rights are possible to “vote” on. We can vote to take your house, business and give it to a more deserving collective hope that appeals to the mob. No more individual rights and property ownership. They are replaced by collective rights - like everyone has a right to a state provided house, clothing, food, health care, clean environment, etc.
Troother New Age dummys will vote for that especially because the ideology of freedom would be dead to law and even maybe treason in light of a socialist constitution. This is the same crowd who were chanting “ooooo baaaam ahhhh, Oooooo baaaam” a few years ago.
Celente is a communist who is appealing to people upset with current events (who would not be upset) with a populist pose. The people he appeals to don’t know the constituion from a pile in the yard. I have heard him say that everyone should be mandated to eat health foods and that the cleptocrats should be taken out by mobs but he’s pretty careful to stick to the bottom line - kill the constitution as if it is the constitution that got us into this mess. I know you know that what has us here is the elite killing the constitution to accomodate socialism where a few “smart” people rule over the “masses” for the collective good.
Anyone with a brain can tell the country is up the creek economically. Most can’t tell you that it happened because of Clinton’s collective ideology that everyone deserves a loan for a house. Anyone with a brain can see Van Jones and company trying to lauch a violent Arab Spring in the US. Most can’t tell you that Van Jones is a communists and that communists responsible for murdering millions of people and enslaving the ones left standing.
So what’s this yahoo selling? A book or 40-year-old C-rats?
So, no specific examples, then. Gotcha.
Excellent book. This Fourth Turning is shaping up to be a super-sized one; Fall of Rome kind of stuff.
Yeah, I’ve thought this too of Gerald Celente. While he was right about some of his earlier economic and social trends, he is wrong on the prescription to fix them. To support your point of view that Celente may be a communist, he appears on Russian TV (RTV) quite frequently. (although, I have to admit that often times New Pravda and RTV are more accurate than our own bought and paid for MSM — very sad indeed). Celente and RTV are basically agitprop designed to undermine our American system even though our more recent political figures have been doing a pretty good job of that without outside help.
Thank you. That is right. Russian TV is the new KGP. There is a trace of truth with a solution of US self destruction.
Yeah, you really “got me there, quester.” Lol
Apparently.
Mr. Questing for truth: Just know who is behind the message. That is all I am saying.
You know he’s advocating for the end of the Constitiution - direct democracy. You know that is not a good thing given the same pigs name Castro and Saddam elected by the majority - every election. You understand that if a pack of wolves were permitted to vote for what’s for dinner, it would be the sheep. See any third world dictatorship.
Although Celente tells the truth about the condition our Nation is in, see that he is a player to nuture and then use that dispair for your incarceration within collectivism as he advocates for Marxim as the solution.
Reluctantly and sadly, I agree.
Beyond the proposal for online, direct democracy, which I agree is the worst idea I’ve heard proposed today, do you have specific examples of how Celente is a leftist, globalist, hopey-changer?
That's it. That's all. I can see you feel passionately about this issue. Good. However, why not try to use the rational side of your brain and answer the question? Aside from the direct democracy suggestion, which I freely admit is a terrible idea, please provide examples of that which you are accusing Celente; namely, being a Marxist.
What is nuture?
Anyway, please provide examples of Celente advocating for Marxism. Even suggesting direct democracy, which is a terrible idea, does not definitively prove that he is advocating Marxism. Marxists do not typically advocate buying gold in order to be free of the state, which he does. Marxists do not typically advocate citizens being prepared, as he does. Marxists do not typically express concern and remorse that their nation is heading into Marxism, as he does. So, please, help me out.
I believe that some cities in California have already done that.
Ah, but did the state of California tell them to pound sand, or did they bail them out?
