As we're told, if history is our guide, an economic collapse tends to sneak up on a city or country gradually, so that most don't even see it coming - just ask the people of Detroit or Venezuela. However, to those paying attention, there have been plenty of signs and Watchmen such as Steve Quayle have been shouting the warning down from the mountain top for many, many years.
Below we take a look below at several new signs that suggest a 'September event' may be ahead of us including global banks telling us 'a nuclear winter is about to hit the world' as heard in the 1st video below as well as new warnings from both a former Ronald Reagan cabinet member and a 'Russian insider' living in America who tell us that on the current course America and the world are heading, with America demonizing Russia despite our own demons, an 'Armageddon scenario' is appearing more and more likely.
Orlov aptly describes for us the fall of America as if he wrote it, and he did several years ago when giving a viral warning the US was about to self-destruct, however this is America's fall. We'll never pull ourselves out of it by not admitting that something is terribly wrong - and we'll never get out of it by repeating the same mistakes again and again and again. Do Barack, Hillary and the globalists know that repeating the same thing over and over and expecting different results is the definition of insanity? From Orlov:
The US is spiraling down into financial, economic and political collapse, losing its standing in the world and turning into a continent-sized ghetto full of drug abuse, violence and decaying infrastructure, its population vice-ridden, poisoned with genetically modified food, morbidly obese, exploited by predatory government plus a wide assortment of rackets, from medicine to education to real estate… That we know.
We also know how painful it is to realize that the US is damaged beyond repair, or to acquiesce to the fact that most of the damage is self-inflicted: the endless, useless wars, the limitless corruption of money politics, the toxic culture and gender wars, and the imperial hubris and willful ignorance that underlies it all… This level of disconnect between the expected and the observed certainly hurts, but the pain can be avoided, for a time, through mass delusion.
Donald Trump has promised America truth no matter how badly it hurts and as Roberts agreed with Orlov, America is in a world of hurt right now with no hope to solve the problems as long as we continuously repeat the behaviors that caused them in the first place. As Orlov points out, the only thing preventing the pain now is 'mass delusion'. Orlov wasn't done with us by any means and describes for us a world that many Americans are now living within with our own unfolding demise and why we should be concerned, especially considering the saber rattling that is going on at Russia's doorstep:
So, most of the recent American warmongering toward Russia can be explained by the desire to find anyone but oneself to blame for one’s unfolding demise. This is a well-understood psychological move—projecting the shadow—where one takes everything one hates but can’t admit to about oneself and projects it onto another. On a subconscious level (and, in the case of some very stupid people, even a conscious one) the Americans would like to nuke Russia until it glows, but can’t do so because Russia would nuke them right back. But the Americans can project that same desire onto Russia, and since they have to believe that they are good while Russia is evil,this makes the Armageddon scenario appear much more likely.
Orlov then reminds us of this dire reality that most Americans have never considered and certainly never known before in our lifetimes: War upon US soil is absolutely inevitable if the US attacks Russia. Are you ready for full-scale war in America?
The next large-scale war, if there ever is one, will be fought on enemy territory. Thus, if the US attacks Russia, Russia will counterattack the US mainland. Keeping in mind that the US hasn’t fought a war on its own territory in over 150 years, this would come as quite a shock.
Of course, this would be done in ways that are consistent with Russian military thinking. Most importantly, the attack must be such that the possibility of triggering a nuclear exchange remains minimized. Second, the use of force would be kept to the minimum required to secure a cessation of hostilities and a return to the negotiating table on terms favorable to Russia. Third, every effort would be made to make good use of internal popular revolts to create long-lasting insurgencies, letting volunteers provide the necessary arms and training. Lastly, winning the peace is just as important as winning the war, and every effort would be made to inform the American public that what they are experiencing is just retribution for certain illegal acts. From a diplomatic perspective, it would be much more tidy to treat the problem of war criminals running the US as an internal, American political problem, to be solved by Americans themselves, with an absolute minimum of outside help.
Orlov proceeds to tell us almost exactly how Russia could quickly annihilate America, at least completely destroying America as we know it. Sharing with us just how quickly Russia could destroy the 'few magic ingredients that allow the US to continue to exist as a stable, developed country capable of sustaining military force overseas', Orlov asks us how we might do without our electrical grid, financial system, interstate highway system, rail and ocean freight, airlines, and oil and gas pipelines. "Disable all of the above, and it's pretty much game over" Orlov warns, adding it would likely take less than 1,000 'balls of flame' for Russia to accomplish their annihilation of us.
He then proceeds to tell us just how easily Russia could take down each of these 'magic ingredients' that are holding our civilized society together, leaving America a mere shell of our former selves, living in a medieval world.
Imagine an America without electricity, our banking system, highway systems, energy and all of the other 'luxuries' that we take for granted every day. As this story from Zero Hedge told us, it won't take long for a total freefall in this country once the trucks stop running. This brand new story from Michael Snyder over at the Economic Collapse Blog tells us that most Americans never give a thought to how food, water and other necessities get to the stores. What will the masses do once there are no stores to get their food? We're told without our transportation systems and the trucks, complete and total chaos would break out in America in no time at all.
We'll close the Orlov portion of this story with this 'good news' from Russia - the very last thing that the Russians want is war with America. Wise Americans think likewise - the last thing we need for our country and our future is nuclear Armageddon or World War 3 being fought upon US soil. However, we may be rapidly heading in that direction. What comes after WW3? According to Orlov - Crickets.
Russia will not resort to military measures against the US unless sorely provoked. Time and patience are on Russia’s side. With each passing year, the US grows weaker and loses friends and allies, while Russia grows stronger and gains friends and allies. The US, with its political dysfunction, runaway debt, decaying infrastructure and spreading civil unrest, is a dead nation walking.
It will take time for each of the United States to neatly demolish themselves into their own footprints, like those three New York skyscrapers did on 9/11 (WTC #1, #2 and #7) but Russia is very patient. Russia is ready to respond to any provocation, but the last thing the Russians want is another war. And that, if you like good news, is the best news you are going to hear. But if you still think that there is going to be a war with Russia, don’t think “Armageddon”; think “a thousand balls of flame,” and then—crickets!
As Trends Forecaster Gerald Celente has warned, when all else fails, they bring us to war and as we see in the stories linked here, much in the global financial world is now failing. As we learn in this new story from Infowars and the 1st video below from the X22Report, central banks are expecting a 'nuclear winter economic catastrophe' to strike the world as much of the world freezes over, which they'll attempt to blame upon Brexit rather than admitting their own wrongdoings which triggered the crisis. Analyst Gregory Mannarino also recently warned "there's a lot of chatter regarding a market crash" while eluding to a possible 'September event'.
We have stated time and again at ANP that we strongly avoid putting dates on possible future events that are totally out of our own control such as economic collapse or world war 3 but as we've also reported, we're steamrolling in those directions. As we also hear in 2nd video below from X22Report, propaganda for the perfect storm is now being unleashed upon us as Dave also warns us that we shouldn't expect to hear 'the collapse has arrived' announced by the mainstream media.
In the final video below, Orlov himself joined the videographer back on the 18th of August to talk about an entire slew of topics including the possibility of World War 3, Donald Trump, economic collapse and what our futures might hold in a rather eye-opening interview. At the 7 minute 40 second mark of that video, the conversation turns towards Trump's foreign policy in comparison to the foreign policies that America has forced the world to live under for many years and calls it a 'breath of fresh air' for the peace-loving world.
