“The West Needs WWIII” – Martin Armstrong Warns “There’s No Return To Normal Here”

Legendary financial and geopolitical cycle analyst Martin Armstrong thinks the New World Order’s so-called “Great Reset” plan for humanity now needs war to try and make it work.

It could happen in the next few weeks.

Armstrong explains, “What they are trying to do is deliberately poke the bear…”

“They are increasing the pressure on just about everything under the sun. The West needs World War III. They just need it. The real problem here is they went to negative interest rates in 2014 in Europe. They have been unable to stimulate the economy, and Keynesian economics have completely failed…

I would say this is mismanagement of government on a global scale. The problem is that central banks have no control over the economy.

Add to this, this type of inflation is substantially different than a speculative boom. This inflation is based upon shortages. These morons with covid… with lockdowns, ended up destroying the supply chains…

Things that are there, I buy extra of because next time it might be gone. So, everybody is increasing their hoarding…

So, what we have with Europe, with its negative interest rates, they have wiped out all the pension funds. They need 8% to break even, not negative rates. There is not a pension fund in Europe that is solvent at this stage of the game. . . . The European government is collapsing. If they end up defaulting, you are going to have millions of people down there with pitch forks storming the parliament. So, to avoid that, they need war…

The Biden Administration has deliberately destroyed the world economy.”

If there is war in Europe, the “U.S. dollar will get stronger initially and not weaker” according to Armstrong. Armstrong also says,

“This is all deliberate. There is no return to normal here. Unfortunately, this is where we are headed.”

Armstrong contends, war in Europe could break out in a couple of weeks, and the EU and NATO are pushing this. Armstrong says,

“They want Russia to do something. . . . This thing with Russia is the same thing all over again. Unfortunately, we are headed for war.”

Armstrong also talks in detail about the following subjects: Digital currency and why the Deep State is pushing so hard for it; gold, silver, food and just about everything going way up in price because of shortages.

Armstrong recommends that people “stockpile two years of food.” Armstrong has other tips for what the common man needs to stock up on; Armstrong also says President Trump is the only President he knew that cared about U.S. soldiers dying in combat. This is why Trump wanted to bring the troops home, and the Deep State warmongers hated him for it.

Armstrong also gives his predictions on who wins the midterm election this coming November. Will it matter which party comes out on top?

In closing, Armstrong says,

“We are not getting back to normal. The system is crumbling from within, and it’s just like the fall of Rome, basically.”

The guy doesn’t even have an economics degree.

In fact, he doesn’t have any kind of degree.

Also, a convicted felon. 11 years of prison for financial fraud.

[fieldmarshaldj]

Thank you. It seems some of them are elderly individuals. You would think they of all people having seen wars would want to do everything they could to prevent us from entering yet another mindless foreign war that’s none of our damn business. We can’t secure OUR border and now these idiots want us to secure that of a foreign nation ?

[fieldmarshaldj]

He’s got your number.

“Guy is a freaking conspiracy nut.”

Meanwhile a handful of plutocrats rule over the planet....

But of course that is not a conspiracy...

[SaveFerris]

I said World War IV will be a great distraction ahead of the midterms.

He calls it World War III.

Well, potato 🥔🥔🥔, tomato 🍅🍅🍅...

Told one guy, a couple of years ago, you can’t have a New World Order and the Mark of the Beast without scaring the population to death.

But then, /shiny side out

LOL! The Usual Suspects trashing Armstrong.

I've known about Martin Armstrong since 2009.

[Roman_War_Criminal]

I don’t care if they call me a hoarder.
I’ll survive and they’ll die.

“The Usual Suspects trashing Armstrong.”

He needs trashed at every opportunity since he ran a multi-billion dollar Ponzi scheme and stole over $700 million in the final count.

Martin A. Armstrong is a criminal.

Martin A. Armstrong is a criminal.

I'm aware of his history.

Doesn't make him wrong, though.

Last time I checked, he wasn't trying to start a world war. The people that he's speaking out against are trying to start a world war and world famine, in between trying to create a global digital dictatorship.

[CodeToad]

“Doesn’t make him wrong, though.”

Yes, it does make him wrong. Trusting a criminal to tell you the whole truth is for suckers. No one has the time to verify all his statements and what he lies about and what he leaves out.

Your comment is the very essence of liberal brainwashing in that they want you to believe anyone can be a good source of information, even criminals and child molesters. They have brainwashed you into not thinking for yourself and discerning facts from fiction, into trusting criminals, and giving liberals a pass on their illogical and stupid ways. Here you are trusting a guy that to this day is lying for profit. He still hasn’t come clean about his criminal activities and is fighting the federal government over property that he stole.

[cgbg]

I would not trust Armstrong with my money.

However, he understands how criminals in power think—and that is why he often has key insights to offer.

People with virtue have a difficult time understanding the dark world of the plutocrats.

My 25th FR anniversary was last month.

I may know a little bit about sorting the wheat from the chaff.  

Just an FYI - one of the tricks the Left and The Deep State use on conservatives is their trust of the "Lee-Gulled System", as in gulled by the Legal System. Get someone convicted of a felony, preferably, then they can be dismissed for all time. See Dinesh D'Souza and James O'Keefe, and a host of effective Republican politicians. Works like a charm - it's like Pavlov ringing his bell. Many conservatives salivate on cue.

[CodeToad]

“People with virtue have a difficult time understanding the dark world of the plutocrats.”

I don’t, and most people don’t. We understand how criminal they can be and that is why we have laws against their acts. They aren’t fooling anyone but the stupid and the gullible.

We just know not to follow them as some sort of positive role model.

[Fury]

Re: 4 - He was found guilty of among other things of defrauding financial clients, and served time in Federal prison. Anything he says should be carefully verified.

[kiryandil]

I keep telling people that if they want to understand what's going on, make yourself a billionaire for a day, and think about it.

Those plutocrats don't need ANY of us - just a compliant staff for their personal Pleasure Planet.

And a relatively small staff, at that.

[cgbg]

“Those plutocrats don’t need ANY of us - just a compliant staff for their personal Pleasure Planet.”

Exactly correct.

If you want to know what their goals and values are, just pay attention to the mass media that they own.

They are sexual perverts who want to destroy potential upward mobility for everyone else—the “green” campaign and the “racist” campaign are two of the tools in their toolkit. They want a war of all (except them) against all.

Read only the headline so far.

Let me guess...He’s selling a book telling us how to survive and prosper in/after WWIII.

When I read articles like this I sit down and think about all the elements of an economic "Great Reset" that aren't only possible or even likely ... but are pretty much NECESSARY.

Let's focus on just a few things that don't make an ounce of financial sense by any objective measure. These are clear indications of a completely unsustainable financial game that can only go on for so long as a government-rigged farce before it collapses like a house of cards.

This isn't intended to be a comprehensive list. It's just a few that are obvious even to an untrained ignoramus like me:

1. Pension systems. These may have made sense at one point, but they're a disaster waiting to happen when you couple early retirement ages with extended life expectancies. Much of the U.S. industrial base was decimated by this nonsense. I recall one documentary on the history of Bethlehem Steel where it was pointed out that the company's union workers were eligible for a full pension after 30 years of service. When the company was in its death spiral, the narrative included stories of "victims" among the workers who had worked for the company since they were 18 and were no longer going to able to retire with a full pension at the age of 48. In modern times, I'll bet most people with defined benefit pensions are retired for more years than they actually work. That kind of idiocy can't be fixed. It can only be destroyed -- either over time through attrition, or immediately through a rapid collapse (like the GM fiasco of 2008-09).

2. "Fixed-rate" mortgages. I use quotation marks here because there's no such thing as a fixed-rate residential mortgage in the U.S. today. Sure -- you can sign a mortgage agreement that establishes an amortization schedule at a fixed interest rate for 15, 20, or even 30 years. But this rate is only "fixed" for the borrower, not the lender. If rates go down, the borrower can always refinance without paying a prepayment penalty to the original lender. But if rates go up, the lender is basically screwed ... kind of like the lender on my own mortgage, who is getting less than 3.25% for the next 25+ years at a time when inflation is being reported at 8%-9% and is probably much higher. How long can that go on?

3. Related to the previous point ... Artificially low interest rates. Inflation is being reported at 8%-9% these days. And yet someone is still buying U.S. Treasury debt at interest rates of 1.8% (1-year), 2.5% (2-year), and under 3% (30-year). Someone is getting their asses taken for a ride here. I'm not exactly sure who it is.

[Sirius Lee]

the elements of an economic "Great Reset" that aren't only possible or even likely ... but are pretty much NECESSARY.

The fly in the ointment is that what the Davos arcadians envision in a "reset" and what you proscribe are miles away, and the former's probably require you to die soon and the wealth of your family confiscated, the survivors, if any, condemned to slavery.

[cgbg]

Good post.

Obviously none of that is sustainable—the collapse is certain.

It is like a rigged poker game—if you don’t know who the mark is at the table, it is you!
