NEW ISSUE ALERT: False Flag War...Blame the Other Guy
Welcome to this week’s Trends Journal: "FALSE FLAG WAR...BLAME THE OTHER GUY"
Accusation, counter-accusation, rinse, repeat.
The Ukraine War is turning into a propaganda race, and the West is perfectly content with treating any statement out of Kyiv as the gospel truth.
Russia’s military warned Western countries that Ukraine is attempting to produce a “dirty bomb,” which is a conventional explosive laced with radioactive material. The Kremlin even provided areas where it said these bombs were being developed.
But Ukraine denied the allegation and said if Moscow was making such a claim, clearly it is the Kremlin planning such an attack. The U.S., like clockwork, and maintaining its decades-long hatred for Russia, sided with Kyiv and denounced Moscow.
U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken said the world will see through “any attempt by Russia to use this allegation as a pretext for escalation.”
U.S. intelligence officials have told news outlets that throughout the war Ukraine has not been forthcoming about its war losses or future plans... which raises the question of how Washington can be so confident that Ukraine is not planning such an attack.
Heating up the war talk, the Wall Street Journal reported the U.S. and Saudi Arabia are on high alert after Saudi intelligence reveals that Iran is expected to carry out an attack on targets in Saudi Arabia. America's Air Force Brig. Gen. Pat Ryder said, "We will reserve the right to protect and defend ourselves no matter where our forces are serving, whether in Iraq or elsewhere."
Yes, World War III has begun and if we do not have peace, we will die in war.
On the Market Front
Stocks were tentative today, as investors wait to see how high the Federal Reserve will raise interest rates tomorrow. We maintain our forecast that when interest rates move above 4 percent the U.S. economy will sink into deep recession... and much much more as we detail in this Trends Journal.
Also, please remember to tune in tomorrow at 6 PM, EST, for my "Celente & The Judge" podcast with Judge Andrew Napolitano that provides insights and solutions from a judicial authority that you won't find anywhere else.
