Speaker 1: 0:01

We have before us the opportunity to forge, for ourselves and for future generations, a new world order. Good evening folks. You're listening to the Hour of the Time. I'm William Cooper. The chair is against the wall. The chair is against the wall. John has a long mustache. John has a long mustache. It's 12 o'clock, americans, another day closer to victory. And for all of you out there on or behind the lines, this is your song Time, weather and highways. Veteran of three foreign wars, entrepreneur and warrior, poet, tony Arterburn takes on the issues facing our country, civilization and planet. This is the Arterburn Radio Transmission. We'll be right back. So you know I've told this story before when I was on tinfoil hat, back around the end of 2024.

Speaker 1: 1:54

There's a parable, a lesson in history. It goes back to the 6th century BC with the king of Lydia. It was Croesus. It goes back to the 6th century BC with the king of Lydia, cresus. We know Cresus, if you study the history of gold and money, that Cresus was the first king to coin gold and use it as money. And that's where you get. I mean, go back to the study of that. And it has electrum, which is the mixture of silver and gold together, and they make the first coins and that's the monetary history. But there's a little sidebar to that, and that is when Croesus amasses his, gets to the height of his power and he looks over to his neighbors. He looks over to Persia, which is the Persian Empire, and they had a massive amount of gold. They didn't use it in the monetary sense, they used it in the religious sense. It was the accumulation of it, it was metaphysical to them, and they had great stores of gold. They were very wealthy, but in a different kind of way than what croesus was.

Speaker 1: 3:08

But croesus decided that he wanted to take on the persian empire, he wanted to rule it. So he knew that if he needed to get the best intelligence and back then intelligence and probably not so much different today he would go to, uh, the mystics, he go to his psychics, go to the oracles, right, and he'd send out. He sent out a decree and he said uh, basically, if, if you can guess what I'm doing you sent out to all the so-called seers and prophets and everything else and he sent them to all the and the land, everything that was known at the time, and he sent out a question If you can tell me what I'm doing this evening. You know that I'm writing this letter. If you can tell me what I'm doing, uh, and you can see into that, then I'll shower you with gold and you will be in my court, right? So only one got it right, and that was the Oracle of Delphi and wrote back and said I see what you're doing.

Speaker 1: 4:12

Oddly enough, he was doing something. He was cooking something really weird. It was like a turtle and a rabbit and a stew, something like that. And Croesus gets very excited. He says great, I found my seer, I found my oracle. And showers the oracle with gold. And then he asks the oracle what happens if I attack Persia? And the oracle says if you attack Persia, a great empire will fall. And so Croesus gathers his army and all of his strength and everything and he runs headlong into this invasion of Persia and it's absolutely disastrous and an empire did fall Croesus' empire. The Oracle never said which one, but that's the way he took it, and I was thinking about that at the end of last year, going into 2025 and looking down the barrel of you know what does this second Trump presidency mean?

Speaker 1: 5:19

Because I know a lot of the players and the people that are behind the political gears what they actually believe. And if you actually really knew what they, it would terrify you, because they're not believe. Don't believe what you believe. See, I know something because I was. I ran inside the mechanism of this thing and I've studied this for years.

Speaker 1: 5:43

And the surface, surface-level Fox News sound clips. That isn't real, because the people that get to these higher upper echelons of power do you think Lindsey Graham has anything in common with you? He gets overwhelmingly elected by Christians and people that think so-called believe in peace and prosperity and free markets. Do you think the neocon establishment cares about your Christian ideology or your beliefs or the constitution or this country? Really they care about another country. They're very much centered on a foreign nation and that is their raison d'etre, that is that, that's their existence, that's the whole purpose of them and you can see it. They'll window dress and tell you that they care about the second amendment or they care about borders, but really, at the end of the day, what really animates them? And you can hear it in their talk shows and you can see it in their commentary, and they don't even back it up with anything intellectual. It's even more terrifying. They just have feelings, as we've seen from Tucker, carlson and Ted Cruz.

Speaker 1: 6:57

But I've been saying this for years. It's been an interesting journey through the wilderness because I kept telling people this isn't real what you're watching. It is real, right, it isn't real. And it's sad because we're on the brink of something totally unnecessary that will escalate. That's how these things do escalate. That's how these things do. It's funny if you read the history of war and I know it's too much to ask our establishment, it's too much to ask the people that rule over us to read or think or feel or be human beings. It's really hard for them because they're too busy running your life, enhancing their own power or whatever, whatever their eyes wide shut parties or whatever they do. And it's too much of a burden on the mainstream media or the legacy media or anybody that has a voice in this thing to have read any history on how warfare works. And you know, I have to run my own show and talk about things that matter because I'm just a paratrooper that likes books, okay, and I learned a thing or two about history.

Speaker 1: 8:12

And it always starts out like this the boys will be home by Christmas. Did you know? In the Civil War they showed up. They made a picnic out of it, like the first couple of. You know it'd been a while. We'd had the Revolutionary War, and that's a different generation. And then you have the War of 1812, and there's some skirmishes here and there. We had the Mexican-American War. It's kind of isolated, it's down there. So when, by the time the Civil War rolls around, all the gentry loaded up, they got their wagons and you know, they put their lady up there on the bench and say we're going to go down and watch a picnic.

Speaker 1: 8:51

The war is on, isn't it exciting? And then they get down there and then cannonballs are ripping through people's legs and bullets are flying and people's faces are coming apart. Oh, that wasn't so much fun, was it? And that's what you get All these idiots on Fox News and all the people that call in and these armchair warriors. You're so tough Like Lindsey Graham. Lindsey Graham, he's going to call, he's going to send you. If he doesn't send your kid over there to die, then he's going to call, he's going to send. If he doesn't send your kid over there to die, then he's going to die.

Speaker 1: 9:26

Well, I mean, it's the breathless cowardice of somebody who's always advocating war. I tell you that the people that I found in my the greatest warriors I've ever met. These are restrained people. You show me somebody calling for war all the time and banging their fist on the table and doing all. I'll show you a coward. I'll show you somebody who's unhinged, who's going to run when things get tough. That's the way those guys always do and that's what we're being led by right now. It's absolutely disgusting to watch. I'm embarrassed. Talked to Melissa this morning about it. She's the same thing. It's like I'm embarrassed. This is embarrassing. There's no wisdom here. I knew this was coming. It doesn't make it any easier, I guess, because this is going to draw lines.

Speaker 1: 10:30

We were on the verge of actually accomplishing something. You realize that too. We could have accomplished something here. We need a new monetary system. We need to rebuild the country. It's time for new infrastructure. It's time for fiscal responsibility. It's time for fiscal responsibility. It's time for the rule of law. It's time for us to establish a consensus on what free speech is, all that stuff that was so important.

Speaker 1: 10:58

But we're going to get drowned out by the needs of this foreign nation that drags us into war, because they captured the minds and hearts of all these millions of people that believe it's God's will To support a nation state? That has nothing to do with the Bible and, by the way, even if it did, where I can't find in my new Testament, where we're supposed to have genocide and nuclear weapons, and I forget the part where Jesus said that show it to me, can't find it in there. You know, jesus said I come not to bring peace, but but the sword. Do you really know what that means? Do you think it was a literal sword? It's supposed to sever you from your thoughts and materialism, sever you from the darkness of a pull of your soul to power or something of this world. The sword is to cut that. It's to sever you from this. You want to be tied to this symbiotically. You see what happens in Gaza. Do you know what kind of nation-state does preemptive strikes? We did that, by the way. How'd that work out? What's the latest from the utopia in Iraq?

Speaker 1: 12:36

I wasn't greeted as a liberator. I was greeted with hand grenades. I was greeted with sniper fire IEDs. I was greeted with sniper fire IEDs. No lawmaker was on the ground. I didn't see Paul Wolfowitz on the ground with me, who wrote up the Wolfowitz memorandum. I didn't see him there. I didn't see Donnie Rumsfeld fly in and take a look around with me and see all the Kurdish kids' homes that were bombed into oblivion. Or see the Iraqi lady that was screaming and tearing her hair out because all of her kids were killed at a checkpoint. Or the Iraqi cops that were unfortunate, just had an intersection of history in their lives to join whatever coalition and get chopped up. Or the family that got indiscriminately murdered at their dinner table because they just happened to be on the wrong side. No, it was glorious. Thanks, dick Cheney.

Speaker 1: 13:38

How'd you like that Freudian slip by George W Bush? He's reading his own. This happened, by the way. I just thought of it. I should pull up the clip. He was talking about Putin invading Ukraine and he said the madman, or whatever it was, the terroristic invasion of Iraq. See, even they have to have a conscience sometimes. So we're on the precipice of this. I hope I'm wrong. You know, when 9-11 happened, we were about $5 trillion in debt, folks. It took us from 1776 to 2001 to go $5 trillion in debt. We're at $36 trillion in debt. Boy, they sure did a good job.

Speaker 1: 14:29

Those fiscal conservatives have been in power many times. They had the leadership of Denny Hassard, a pedophile. Longest-serving Republican Speaker of the House in history. Longest serving Republican speaker of the house in history. Pass the Patriot Act, remember this guy. That's why, when I see those billboards and the Texas red yeah, red's the color of communism Not going to do that, and apparently I'm right, apparently that that's kind of what they want to do, because this is something.

Speaker 1: 15:01

Perpetual war, like James Madison said, a Republic cannot survive in that. It cannot survive in the environment of perpetual war. Like james madison said, a republic cannot survive in that cannot survive in the environment of perpetual war. So I'm just that. Look, you can believe what you want to believe. But this sort of this action in history, this, this, we're on the precipice of it and it's. You know, maybe I'm wrong, maybe there will be a pullback and a negotiation, maybe it will be something, but I've seen this movie and I've talked about it this morning.

Speaker 1: 15:33

I was on with gar goldsmith. I was naive at 22, 23. I was like, well, hey, the weapons inspectors are in the. You know, hans blix is in iraq and got all these people on the ground and they're destroying stuff and it's live on TV and maybe it will stop Then March 18th 2003,. The bombs start falling and I'm like, oh well, I got my orders, I got to go. Got to go find those weapons that aren't there for that neocon class project and don't get me started.

Speaker 1: 16:04

Literally, modern conservatism is like two clicks away from satanism. You realize that I mean like, and I I wouldn't say that if I didn't have all the evidence. You can look this up for yourself. It's look carl marx, right? Do we agree that carl marx was a pretty evil individual like you. You talk about his ideology. It's killed millions and millions of destroyed lives, countless lives, upheavals. It's a mass, grave ideology. Where do you think that comes from? So Marxism you click just a little bit over and you get which is Leon Trotsky? Leon Trotsky and Lenin are the creators of the Bolshevik state in Russia, absolute Marxists. They were loaded down with gold by the world's richest people. It's so funny.

Speaker 1: 16:54

I don't know why colleges leave this out, but maybe I do Because it has to be like oh, we're against the man. The man funds you. That's how everything works. That's why I talked about, like last week who funded the no Kings protest has to have funding. Let's a click away.

Speaker 1: 17:16

And then, of course, modern conservatism is neoconservatism and that is Irving Kristol. Irving Kristol was a follower of Leon Trotsky. You see, we're careening into that. It's not that far removed. It's not Edmund Burke. I was reading a small biography on Edmund Burke the last couple of days and just how about? Tradition is important. History matters. This was a great thinker about what conservatism actually was. Conservatism isn't an ideology, it's the absence of one. It means that history matters to you more than revolution. Russell Kirk was the same way. I know I'm throwing out some names here that Ben Shapiro wouldn't recognize your hero. Whoever Ben Shapiro wouldn't recognize your hero. The millions of followers that this guy argues with stunted minds at college campuses. It makes him some sort of intellectual giant. But that's the people that push for war. See, I haven't been pushing for that.

Speaker 1: 18:20

I like sound money. I like peace, I like having the rule of law, I like a constitution. I like government to stay out of people's lives. I don't like the Patriot Act or the surveillance state or the military-industrial complex. I'm an American and we don't need those things to defend ourselves. You don't need those alphabet agencies and everything else. But I'm not animated at all about that.

Speaker 1: 18:52

All right, I'll get to the chat here in a second. Let's see, we're 18 minutes in. I haven't plugged, I haven't done anything. I'm joining the studio by beans the brave ladies and gents. She's going to protect us from woodland creatures, bad vibes and intruders. I'm broadcasting from deep within the heart of the Ozark Mountains in my studio in Branson, missouri.

Speaker 1: 19:19

Let's jump into some headlines. We'll read a little bit about gold today. I hope the financial markets are right. It's another thing I talked with Gard about. The financial markets don't seem too worried, but they probably don't know what I know. I've stared into the abyss of politics and I know a thing or two and I know history. So maybe I'm wrong I really hope I am, by the way and maybe the markets are right, because the markets really aren't responding.

Speaker 1: 19:49

Oh, this is a localized thing, but there's nothing quite so terrifying as people who believe something that isn't, and that's what Christian Zionism is the idolatry of waving an Israeli flag in a big megachurch in San Antonio. Do you realize how crazy that is? Because it means only one thing it means war. And then you can't explain to me why, other than you're supposed to believe it, because a man at a podium says so, because you are too lazy to figure it out yourself. All right, let's jump into.

Speaker 1: 20:43

This is one of the articles. Obviously, I'm going to be stuck on this and maybe next week we can just get right back down to parapolitics. But let me put this up on the screen only 16% of Americans and 19% of Trump's voters want to the U? S to join Israel's war on Iran, as president Trump reportedly considers issuing an unconstitutional order to commit us military to Israel's war on Iran. A new poll finds very little public support for an American attack on Iran, even among those who voted for Trump in 2024. According to an Economist YouGov poll taken between June 13th and 16th, only 16%. Does this look like representative government to you? Does this look like you're being represented? I thought this was America first. How is America first if it's last? If you're not first, you're last. That's what this is. We're almost at 130% of debt to GDP.

Speaker 1: 22:07

What has all this been for? I feel like I'm in that Nixon speech from 1968 and speech for the acceptance of the Republican nominations. It's a good one, by the way. It's like did we come all the way for this? Did our soldiers fight and die in Valley Forge from Korea for this and World War II. We do do all to get here, and that was, you know, when the he was elected to end the Vietnam war. People think they're getting something when they. When you say I want to end the wars, that's what people vote for, obama did that too. Then he was say I want to end the wars, that's what people vote for. Obama did that too. Then he was like I'm really good at killing people that's another quote you can look up. He really said that Like to kill people with flying killer robots.

Speaker 1: 22:58

Only 19% of people who voted for Trump in 2024 support American military involvement. Well, who are those 19%, I wonder? Those are the people that call into? Those are boomers that call into conservative talk radio. I know them well Because they're really interested in their. Their hobby horse is who we're going to bomb. I don't know. Their hobby horse is who we're going to bomb. I don't know.

Speaker 1: 23:32

Charlie Robinson, my good friend macroaggressions, was on when I hosted David Knight. He had a funny joke about as soon as Israel launched their strike, john Bolton had to consult his doctor because he didn't need his Viagra anymore. That's what animates these people. 23% of self-identified Republicans support going to war. Similarly, 56% of all Americans say the United States should engage in negotiations with Iran. Should engage in negotiations with Iran. On the other hand, some of the poll's findings illustrate the effectiveness of decades of government propagandizing about Iran. It's been echoed by establishment media. For example, 61% of Americans say Iran's nuclear program poses either an immediate or serious threat, or somewhat serious threat, to the United States. It does not Zero percent Zero. So are your sons and daughters, their lives, worth 0%?

Speaker 1: 24:49

Saddam Hussein was given weapons of mass destruction gas, sarin gas, anthrax, other things to fight and kill Iranians during the Iran-Iraq war by the United States and supported by the Central Intelligence Agency to take on Iran because Iran was in the sphere of the Soviet Union during the Cold War. And then George HW Bush found his moment. You know Saddam was. He called him Saddam and Saddam was the new Hitler. In a war that lasted a couple of days because they were a large army but they didn't have the technological sophistication to withstand air bombardment and all the rest. He saw Desert Storm. It's a televised war.

Speaker 1: 25:51

It's very fun for the media, but after that half a million Iraqi men, women and children died because of the sanctions that were placed on them by the United States the no-fly zone, an oil embargo and the oil-for-food program that was shackled on the Iraqi people. When confronted about this on 60 Minutes and asked if half a million Iraqi men, women and children were worth it for the sanctions, the Secretary of State of the United States, madeleine Albright, said yes. So if you ever wonder why people in the Middle East hate us, it's not because they stumbled upon a constitution that was found in a cave or something and then went berserk because they found out about the Bill of Rights. They hate us for what we've done and our leaders, who are soulless. You cannot spiritually attach yourself to. Whatever the hell this thing is. I'm telling you it's bad. I had to go through it and I didn't lie. I mean, if you knew me at the time of the Iraq war, when I was ordered to go, I was very angry about that. I couldn't quite intellectualize why. I just knew it was a really bad idea. I thought what are we doing? This doesn't make any sense. What does this have to do with 9-11? I was asking those questions at 22, 23. You don't want any part of this. There's a darkness in this and they will come up with some false flag. They'll do something to get you know every day they'll put that MAGA hat on. We're just going to go get them over there. Yeah, sad to watch.

Speaker 1: 27:57

The US intelligence community issued a national intelligence estimate that concluded, with high confidence, that Iran was not developing a nuclear weapon. The same conclusion has been periodically reiterated by the intelligence community ever since, including just three months ago. Similarly, 50% of Americans and 68% of Trump voters classify Iran as an enemy of the United States. A quarter of Americans categorize Iran as unfriendly. Yeah, it's. What do you expect them to do? Does anybody not know the history of our involvement there? The mainstream media? I know they went to some very expensive schools. They're just so busy with their social schedule to read. It's funny.

Speaker 1: 28:51

James Forrestal, first secretary of defense under Truman and he really was the first secretary of defense. Truman changed it from the secretary of war to make it sound different because you know it sounds plausible. It sounds like you're supposed to be defensive, not warlike. James forestall had some real problems with, uh, our recognition of what we were doing with israel and, um, just, military industrial complex in general. I think he probably was more pragmatic and didn't, you know, with the threat of the Cold War, wanted to be a little bit more, have more options. He was pushed out of a window at Bethesda Naval Hospital and you can listen to my friend Don Jeffries to get more details on that, but most likely you know. People say well, he jumped out, he killed himself, but Dave was the first Secretary of Defense, you know what he was reading. People say, well, he jumped out, he killed himself, but Dave was the first Secretary of Defense, you know what he was reading.

Speaker 1: 29:49

See, I always thought that I read this from Gore Vidal. It's the little things you'll find on my show and nobody else's. James Forrestal was reading the play by Sophocles called Ajax and I pulled it up and I'm skipping around here, but you guys can get facts and figures. People believe what they believe. Well, we're on to the next article. Very few people support the war. I'll give more attention to this in a second, but it goes on to talk about what the play was about, and this is going to make sense here in a second.

Speaker 1: 30:31

After a great warrior, achilles, has been killed in battle, there was a question as to who should receive his armor, as the man who would now be considered the greatest Greek warrior, ajax, felt he should be given Achilles' armor, but the two kings, agamemnon and Melanus, awarded it instead to Odysseus. Ajax became furious and decided to kill the three of them. However, athena, goddess of wisdom and more, stepped in and deluded Ajax into instead killing the spoil of the Greek army, which included cattle as well as the herdsmen the Greek army, which included cattle as well as the herdsmen. It's a message about arrogance and folly and misdirection. And do you know what? The operation was? To overthrow the king of Iran in 1952, 52, 53, mosaddegh. It was called Operation Ajax.

Speaker 1: 31:33

And, of course, without the Shah, you never get the Ayatollahs, and without the Ayatollahs you never get the hostages taken in 1979, and you never get the birth of modern, whatever radical Islam, not really. And that's the Shia brand. And then you get sunni brand, which is al-qaeda, which we created, which means the database, and tim osmond, which is osama bin laden. Just a lot of stuff that you're. You know, ted cruz doesn't know, because it's too much of a burden to think, because you can just go to church for me, just side boy, I got that stamp. I know what I believe because a fat man at a podium told me so, having fun.

Speaker 1: 32:22

Yet, let's see, we're 32 minutes. Let me go to some of the and we put this back, uh, off the screen. Hold on a second. I'm I'm having, uh, I'm having a moment where I just I mainly stay pretty even keel because you have to. It's uh in this world because especially you're running businesses and you can't be all over the place. But this particular type of stuff drives me nuts.

Speaker 1: 32:53

Let's see Former Star Trek writing fellow. I know who that is Charlie Hilarious. Yes, kenfin Powers. Yeah, kenny F and Power. I like that, kenny F and Power. Hi, tony, yes, things are crazy, my friend. This is all on my YouTube. Yeah, jay Berenger, they want to turn Iran into a failed state. Yeah, it's their favorite thing. That's her favorite thing. It's chaos, for the sake of it. And if you really know the politics of it, it starts to make a lot more sense.

Speaker 1: 33:42

Again, I hope I'm wrong Geopolitically and we'll go over some stuff here happening with precious metals. They don't see this as a thing. I see it as. So, again, you get both sides right. Don't listen to a thing. I say you go anything. I say cross-reference it, check it. If I'm wrong, send me an email and I'll correct myself Literally, I will, by the way, before I lose it and this is. You know, we kind of get on a new track here.

Speaker 1: 34:14

But one of my listeners sent me an email about a big build back better and the big beautiful bill. How it's kind of the same thing. It's the same thing and it's BBB right, this build back better was a UN term. I've seen that before. I've seen it pop up. It popped up in early 2019, I think, and one of my good friends, another researcher, found it and sent it to me and that was used for the campaign slogan for Biden. Anyway, that's big beautiful bill, bb, which people put the six, six, six, all that stuff. Yeah, it's something interesting. And then a lot of the bloatedness. The big bloated bill. I just thought of that because I asked people to email me.

Speaker 1: 35:11

All right, let me check rumble real quick and then make sure I'm not missing anybody. Oh, we got knights of the storm and dustin helm over on. Uh, the rumble chat, karen carpenter. Karen carpenter says my daughter says I have resting bitch face. I do, I've been told that. I just get really serious. I'm thinking all the time. She says love the shirt, thank you, we're going to have the store up next week or so. You can get a Wolfpackgold shirt and we're really proud of that gold shirt and we're really proud of that. Good to see everybody. Thanks for joining over on the rumble chat. Yeah, I'm broadcasting the videos on my ex at now and Facebook for now. So lots of fun, all right.

Speaker 1: 36:22

Well, I'm trying not to stay too much into the war, but that's where we are. Let's go to antiwarcom. Yeah, oh, this is what I wanted to do. I saw the headlines. I'm going to go back. Let's pull up, drudge. I want to show you something real quick. It's another thing that just bothers me on a cellular level Is this kind of attitude. Let's just pull up. Let me cancel this. Pull up. I'm on my laptop still. I've still getting. I got to get new, all new equipment over here in the studio. I'm Branson. I got to upgrade my stuff in Texas, but I will when I get some time. I'm going to do this and then we'll see if we can jump into some headlines on the monetary system.

Speaker 1: 37:26

Alright, this is Drudge, over in the left-hand corner. Drudge always has. This is what you are supposed to be seeing, like they want to. That's why I bring it up, because this is what this is the narrative you're supposed to see if you're captured in the fulcrum of whatever psyop this is, and it has a picture of this four-star general in fatigues in his BDUs I don't know if they even call them that anymore. It says in quotations this jacked gorilla. This is what I guess he's called a jacked gorilla. He's a general pushing Trump to strike Iran, pushing Trump to strike Iran. So that's how I'm going to click on the link. Is this? Is this even real? Michael Carrillo said to be behind throne. Is US President mulls over direct military action? Uh-huh, this talks about him being in war-torn Mosul, iraq.

Speaker 1: 38:50

I was there. I have a different view. I saw just off the top of my head. I saw churches that had an existence, some of the oldest churches in Christendom that are now in ruins because of our involvement, because of our occupation, because of our invasion. I saw homes and families obliterated. So I'm just reading the headlines and he's pushing for the strikes on Iran and I'm assuming some sort of new war.

Speaker 1: 39:32

He loves it for the sake of it. I'll just put it that way Like if you've seen that and taken part in it and you don't become so skeptical like you don't become like like a master of war. I can think of two, I can think of two. Well, no three, I'll say three. We'll go list one by one.

Speaker 1: 39:51

The first one would be Smedley Butler, highly decorated, most highly decorated Marine Corps general or person up until the 1940s and 50s, most highly decorated ever. And he wrote a book called War is a Racket by the end of his career and he learned so much. He traveled the world fighting on behalf of multinational corporations and he's like I didn't go down to south america and create, you know, overthrow governments and things to make the world safe for democracy. I was making it safe for the united fruit company. That was a warrior. He got it. He was like, oh, I see. And then he had a plan to protect the united states militarily without getting involved in world war ii. So you know, uh, he had to die also. So he died mysteriously in in june of 1941, right around the time of operation barbarossa, when the state department of the united states would get really excited about getting into the war and helping the communists. They weren't really wanting to help England, but they really wanted to help Stalin.

Speaker 1: 40:58

Because Joe McCarthy was right, another general, that somebody I respect, a great warrior, probably the greatest general of all time, and that's General Douglas MacArthur. I've read his biography like three or four times folks over the years. I bought a copy of his biography in an antique store in Fredericksburg, virginia, in 2003 on leave from Iraq, and I spent all day in this old bookstore. And I bought a copy of William Manchester's American Caesar and I read it, and I read the whole thing in three days and I read it on the plane back to Iraq where I just had to serve another two months. So I know a thing or two about Douglas MacArthur.

Speaker 1: 41:44

You know what he wanted to do. He wanted to abolish war. He wanted to put it in the constitutions of each government around the world and make it illegal. That was his conclusion. He begged Lyndon Johnson to stay out of Vietnam. Unlike these clowns, you're not going to follow these guys into war. I've already done that. Yeah, no parades. Victory, no, nothing, just the sourness of watching your country go further and further into debt and get ruled by a bunch of marxists no thanks. Meanwhile, look, we don't talk about the real threats to this country, the southern border. Look at the people that they're trafficking children and God knows what else over Sex slaves and other things, like with impunity wearing fatigues. That doesn't anger you. If you're a Jack Gorilla, you got to get over there and hit Iran. Yeah, no, thanks, I'll go with actual, real military men who know a thing or two and it's served. And somebody like Eisenhower not perfect, but at the end of his career, both as a general and supreme commander of NATO, ran the Allied forces on D-Day all that stuff. Eisenhower not a perfect man, but at the end called out the military-industrial complex. That was his farewell speech in 1961. And I know that's too much history for the mainstream to follow what I just said. But yeah, excuse me, if I don't want to go down that rabbit hole with the Jack Gorilla, you can have that one.

Speaker 1: 43:32

I had another article from Caitlin Johnstonestone. Let's just leave it at that, folks. Let's go. And we went. We went into the parapolitics. I did the anti-war stuff. Let's just leave it be. Anti-war tells me that trump already has the plans drawn up. He's just waiting, um, you know, for our greatest ally to sink the Liberty again, or sell our missile secrets and technology to the Chinese, our greatest ally, or to dance on 9-11.

Speaker 1: 44:10

This is hard to watch. It really, really is All right. Let's go to Kitco. And again. This is interesting. The markets are not responding Like I would be looking at this like okay, because you know you do one thing and other things happen. Like I would be looking at this like okay, because you know you do one thing and other things happen. There's a domino effect for every. You know, it's kind of like Isaac Newton. He was on to something when he said for every action there's an equal and opposite reaction. You know, like that's just the universe, that's just the way that the world works. You're in the third dimension. If you do something, something else happens. I mean, it's just the universe, that's just the way that the world works. You're in the third dimension. If you do something, something else happens. I mean it's just revolutionary thought. They actually thought in the Cuban missile crisis that if we took out the, the frog, the missiles you know, we took out all the, the, the short range warheads, that and killed all the Cubans and the Russians and the they were working with them to arm them that they would do nothing. That's what some of the advisors told kennedy and I think he was just like like me. Like what is what planet am I so, but some of the market believes that nothing will happen. We shall see. Let's put this order. Let's look at some stuff on kitco, then we'll go to look at some highlights and what's going on with the gold market. I'll plug and I'll tell you what I'm working on. Let's do that and we'll get, because I don't have a regular show in me watching this ever since friday theth. By the way, where's my symbology guys? I thought the symbology guys would be all over this. Where's my numerology guys? I don't see anything on X or I haven't seen any articles posted. There's no new podcast on Friday the 13th. Come on, guys, you're better than this. All right, let me see. Let's put up central banks. So this is, I think, what you need to remember about, no matter what happens. Okay, we're already on a path. The fundamentals of de-dollarization, of a new monetary global great reset, all still in there. Yeah, you get guys like me that I guess I have an affinity to call out the warmongering neocon sycophants for satan, and I just become my wheelhouse sometimes and I get kind of animated about it. But at the end of the day, all the other stuff that I talk about is still happening too, and it's moving at an accelerated pace. This is, I think apropos to a world that's going to move away from the dollar and the SWIFT system into something else cross-border payments done through stable coins, gold or Bitcoin, or something like that. Central banks will continue to buy gold and diversify away from the US dollar in the next 12 months. This is according to the World Gold Council In a 2025 survey. Not only are central banks expected to continue buying gold over the next 12 months, but the precious metal is also attracting significantly more attention from the official sector than any other time in the past decade, according to the latest survey from the World Gold Council. So this just again, r Buckminster Fuller called it accelerating acceleration. You just reach a tipping point. Everything that's gone on, everything that continues to happen in the world monetary reset, gold is playing a huge point. Everything that's gone on, everything that continues to happen in the world monetary reset, and gold is playing a huge part in it. It's not the only part, though, folks. It's not. I know some uh. I'm a. I listen to a lot of uh analysis shows on both bitcoin and gold, and I don't find almost anybody like me. I just just feel like there's room for all sorts of other things that are going to be part of the next phase of our economic reality, and gold's a major part, but it's not the only part. Gold Survey, which received 73 responses this year, the highest participation rate since the survey began eight years ago. Roughly half of all global central banks participated in this year's survey. The survey shows that central banks see the value of holding gold as a global reserve asset. That's Basel III 2021, bank of International Settlements settlements. Gold moves from a tier three asset to a tier one. It just surpassed their euro, is the second most hold held global uh reserve asset, over the euro, and that's why the european central bank said gold was a threat to the global order. Yes, it's a threat to your monopoly money. It's a threat to the power that you have to print your way out of a problem, and these governments a lot of them are already starting to realign like well, if there's going to be a new global gold standard, which looks more and more apparent, of some kind. It may not look like we've had anything previously, but there will be a monetary reset, folks, but there will be a monetary reset, folks, regardless of. You can't save the current economic system by war. You can't Not in its current form. It's too much. The debt of the US when I was born was $1 trillion, give or take. It was right at that, the end of the Carter administration, the beginning of the Reagan administration One trillion. So it took us all of that history to get there. We do that every 90 days, so that can't last. It's just mathematics. It doesn't really care about your ideology. The increase in participation is not just a number. It's a powerful signal of engagement with gold among the central bank community. These responses add depth in our insight into understanding of gold's role within the reserve management. This is according to the World Gold Council. 95% of respondents expect global gold reserves to increase over the next 12 months. I was listening to Martin Armstrong, who runs the Socrates program on a podcast and I'm going to try to get him on. I've been reading about him for years. Interesting His take on the price of gold and silver is that it's not based on inflation. He didn't think that inflation really moved the price of gold or silver. It's based off of fear. It's based off of geopolitical tensions and market conditions, based off of holding assets outside of things that would be volatile in a chaotic world. That's according to Martin Armstrong, who's bullish on the price, by the way, but he doesn't think inflation drives it. That's interesting, isn't it? I'd like to have him on to talk about that. I think it's more. I think there is a correlation between unlimited currency creation and the increase in price of commodities, because I mean it's just less. I mean something more ubiquitous. I mean what finite versus infinite. I mean what has more value, something that's always everywhere, all the time, or something that has a finite, scarce, precious existence, or something that has a finite, scarce, precious existence. I mean scientifically. I just think that works. But something's happening with silver right now, which is another part of this, I think is finally catching up, because it hasn't had an all-time high against the dollar since I've been alive. It will. It will surpass Nothing can stay held down that long, forever, but I think it's both, and certainly the central bank gold buying. What this article is talking about is very important for you to understand, because in 2009 and you know you're not going to hear this from Mad Money or one of these stock shows or something telling you to buy FANG stocks 2009, the amount of gold being ordered by central banks was almost zero. They didn't buy it, they weren't holding it, they trusted the US dollar system and then, after we bailed out the two banks that are too big to fail in jail and all that stuff, you know, the big short central bank started slowly buying gold and accumulating. And then, after 2021, you know Basel three with the bank of international settlements, tier one asset, and then the invasion of Russia and this more sanctions that were placed. And you know Basel Three with the Bank of International Settlements, tier one asset, and then the invasion of Russia and there's more sanctions that were placed. And you know, then you just fast forward to blanket tariffs and if you don't use the dollar, you know we're going to 100% tariff. You and you see where the wheel keeps turning. And if you're in this country and you produce energy and oil, we're just going to see if a killer robot can blow you up, flee the city that you live in, where 10 million people live, and people want to move away from the dollar. That's crazy, tony. So central banks are going to continue to do that. What does that mean for you? Well, it means that if you understand this and again I keep saying this, don't listen to a word I say Go, look this up for yourself, think for yourself. There's too many commentators vying for the occupation and colonization of your mind. I don't want it. I don't want that responsibility. I don't want anything to do with that. I want to discuss ideas. I don't want that responsibility. I don't want anything to do with that. I want to discuss ideas. I'm more interested in the ideas than I am you to click on the show. I never cared about that. If I cared about that, I'd have millions of followers because I know exactly what to say. You don't think I could do exactly what Ben Shapiro does or Sebastian Gorka, that hack. I think I could do that in a minute, but I don't, because I don't believe those things, because they're not true or they're just downright stupid, and I like to not be on the side of stupid if I can help it. Sometimes I am. Sometimes I'm stupid, but not on purpose. So don't listen to me, listen to yourself and go read and go look into what the difference between currency and money is, and what you'll find is and I think this is why I keep my show on what motivates me to go live with my chihuahua on Thursdays and talk to you is because all these stories are important and understand the geopolitical setup, If I can go through it with you. What I find is that we can take a little bit of wisdom out of each article, a little bit of something, and it's intel, so you can be better prepared for what's coming. It's not, you can't necessarily stop it. I'm like a meteorologist I can tell you, maybe, that the tornado is coming that way, but I can't stop the tornado, neither can you. How can you benefit? Well, you can understand that they're going to reset all of this stuff and we're going to continue to talk about that every week. They're going to reset all this stuff. They're going to reset the currencies of the world based on something else, and the reason they're going to do that is because the current system is unsustainable and in between there'll be wars and there'll be chaos and all the stuff that they do. And it's our job to not get despondent or fall into that trap or support them when they do that. Like I said, don't get energetically involved in whatever they're doing here with this Middle Eastern war. Stay far away from that. Keep your spirit away from that, because that's evil, I promise you. I got it all over me when I was a young man. It took me years and maybe I never did to get it away from me, it was just karmically on me. It'll always be with me. You don't want any part of that, even from afar. So don't back the Jack Gorilla guy, all right, okay, so closing out, we've got a few minutes. I want to tell you guys, I'm about to relaunch a whole bunch of stuff, like I said, we're going to have to store up. I'm working on that. You see my notepad it's full, like it's just full. I'm just writing. I'm analog here, but I'm working on stuff. Wolfpack, if you haven't, if you hear my voice and you haven't joined Wolfpack, please do. I got. If I get more people, I can get better deals for everybody. And if you can hang on, even if it's 50 bucks a month and this isn't really about profits I this is my purpose. I want to build this thing and help people, because if everybody who's bought from me over the last many years, you're doing better than if you hadn't. Because if you took green pieces of paper and you turn them into precious metals, like guys, I was selling gold to people to 1200 bucks an ounce. I was selling silver to people at $1,200 an ounce. I was selling silver to people at $14 an ounce. We're selling American Silver Eagles boxes, monster boxes for $15 an ounce at some time. And I kept telling people, watch out for this. Wolfpack does that, especially if you're like, hey, I'm on a budget, the dollar doesn't go as far. I haven't got a rate. I got all that. If you'll come over and join. We got the promo code 1776. That's free silver on top of whatever you get into we got. Maybe you can only do it one at a time. That's fine. You don't have to do a recurring deal, but that helps everybody and I'm going to be pushing that. We're leading with that. If you'd like to become an affiliate, you'd like to make some extra money, get in touch with my office. We're having an affiliate program for everybody on Wolfpack. I'll show you how to get your own gold and we'll do that. But that's the mission. In the face of all this stuff, we're going to continue to build and put you in something outside of those Luciferian banks you're in. That's wolfpackgold for the website, wolfpackgold, and then arterburngold for me for my website, and we're going to work on some Bitcoin operations really soon. If you've got any kind of direct buys, if you have a need for gold, silver or Bitcoin. We want your business. You call us and you can always talk to me. All right. Price of gold today. Luciferian bankster notes $3,370 LBN's make an ounce of gold and $36.38 again. Let's put this up on the screen. I'll show you this right before we close out. Both of these in the red, both of these in the red, both of these in the red, and that could be a good sign. The world certainly isn't driving and saying that we're going off the cliff. So maybe I'm wrong. It's always good to have a. Just put that in your back pocket, never know. All right, folks, we appreciate you. I'll be back next week. Tune into America Unplugged this weekend, on Saturday, america Unplugged channel. I'll be back with you guys on that channel as well, so subscribe. Podcast Paratruther Arterburngold. We'll see you soon. You take care of each other. End of transmission.
