Good morning and welcome to Wednesday's episode of Trending. Well, on the back of a major appearance on a big podcast, the Diary of a CEO podcast with Stephen Bartlett, the man being known as China's Nostradamus has said that conscription will come and then six billion people will die. It's what you want to wake up to on a Wednesday morning, isn't it? The analyst who predicted the US-Iran war warns conscription is coming and that it will trigger a conflict and a horrific crisis, food shortages and so on, leaving billions of people dead. A man known as Professor Jiang has predicted that up to six million people could starve if this trend continues. To go through the story, the analyst who oversaw, sorry, who foresaw the US and Iran conflict is predicting that this will drag out indefinitely. Now, this is something that has been discussed. This is something that we've talked about and others have talked about. George Orwell talked about the endless war, that it was never meant to be won, it was just meant to be continuous. We kind of saw that with the war on terror, because war on terror is such a broad, vague term. What does that actually mean? Who decides when that's over? How do you define when that's finished? We saw that for years and years drag out in Afghanistan and Iraq, and obviously then filter on into countries like Syria and Libya, Lebanon, and now we're seeing what we're seeing in Iran. So that whole concept that war isn't meant to be won, not that there really is any winners in war, there's only losers, particularly civilians on either side, it's not meant to come to any kind of conclusion. Because as I covered on Monday, we're at the point now where it's just stale, mate. And okay, missiles are not firing across the skies, and schools are not being blown up at this current point, and children are not losing their lives because of those of those bombs and those attacks. But all of the economic impacts, all of the you know, knock-on effects of this conflict, whether that be oil supplies, whether that be food supplies, whether that be the price of everything, that's still going up. So the impact of the war is still being felt and still being seen right across the world. So even though it's not essentially missiles firing at each other, this stalemate situation is still causing more and more issues for people, which is what this guy's pointing out. Because let's say the situation we have right now continues for the next six months. Well, we're sat here on the 13th of May, they're already talking about fuel supplies, oil supplies, jet fuel supplies, fuel supplies, and food supplies and so on. What's that gonna look like in another six months? Because this blockade has only been around a month, month, six weeks. So, what's that gonna look like in another six months? What's the impact on your lives going to be? Well, so essentially, to create that impact, they don't have to do anything. They have to literally do nothing. They have to keep the status quo as it is right now. Obviously, public unrest and civil unrest will get bigger and bigger and bigger, but we know they don't care about that. So this guy's prediction is a very interesting one that we're not really gonna see any change. We're gonna see talks of it, we're gonna see, oh, there's there's peace talks and there's uh a resolution, and we might well, you know, have this all sorted by the by the weekend. Well, we've heard that a lot, but continuation of this is what's carried on. So he talks about the catastrophic impacts on global food security of this prolonged war, and he says it could put six billion lives at risk. Now, he made this prediction, as I said, during that podcast you can see on YouTube with Stephen Bartlett. Now he runs a predictive history channel and has built a following of more than two and a half million in under a year, which is also you know a bit of a red flag when somebody comes from nowhere and is suddenly everywhere. You obviously have to question whether that's organic. So we'll keep an eye on that. But he's talking about we've heard lots of talks about oil, we've heard lots of talks about food and so on. But he's bringing this argument from uh a position of stuff called fertilizers. He's talking about how the world relies on fertilizers, and without them, the world could only sustain a food supply in the life of two billion people when there's eight billion people on the planet right now. So that leaves six billion without a reliable food source. So his to quote him, he says, what are the six billion people going to do? Are they just going to starve to death? No, they're gonna migrate, and this is gonna create a huge global crisis throughout the world. He also talks about who is going to starve, you know, people in in what particular countries and so on, based on where the supply is going. He said food production on the planet could fall 10 to 25%, and there simply isn't enough food for people, and then it's a question of who is going to starve. He highlighted the paradox facing the Gulf states like Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE, which ship vast quantities of fertilizer to other parts of the world while importing 80 to 90 percent of their own food. And Zhang then goes on to be asked the question why he thinks the US want this war to continue. And his answer is this war in Iran benefits America tremendously. So why not have it go on for a very long time? He also then finally goes on to say, in order to make sure this war goes on for a long time, you need ground troops and you need a lot of them. That's why there'll be a national draft. So there's two ways to look at what this guy is saying. You can look at it and go, okay, that makes sense, you know, that in terms of them trying to prolong this conflict for as long as possible, eke out the devastation on people's lives, squeeze people slowly and slowly and slowly. Like you have you have major events like 9-11, 7-7 bombings that that create a massive impact instantly on people's lives or on people's perceptions and on people's emotions. Equally, you have slow, slow, slow squeezing of people's ability to survive over a long period of time. It's like the equivalent of, you know, someone can walk up to you in high school and punch you in the face and start a fight and beat you up, or somebody could bully you a little bit every day over an extended period of time. The outcome is probably the same, which is you're going to get to the point that you don't want to be, you can't take this anymore. One gets you there really quickly, one gets you there in a position where it's very slow, and it very much feels like that's what's happening here. They are slowly, bit by bit, day by day, week by week, month by month, trying to squeeze people more and more, whether that be their freedoms, whether that be their economic stability, the ability to simply survive, whether that be the ability to have a job, whether that be their mindset that what the hell does the future look like? What's the point in even trying? Whether it be that aspect to it as well. So continuing this for a long period of time, certainly at the current situation where it's kind of a stalemate and it feels relatively calm when you read the news, but you're still seeing the impact of that when you go and fill the car up, when you go and book a holiday, when you go to work, when you try and buy a food shop, you know. And also all of these things are going on behind the scenes. You know, this there's not talks of food supply yet. Prices are going up, yeah, but there's not talks of supply. Those sort of things will slowly start to happen. You'll slowly start to notice in the shops there's less on the shelves. Just like we saw during lockdowns, where you'd go in and there would be certain things not on the shelves. That didn't happen overnight, it happened slowly. You know, and it gets, and I think when things like that happen, people feel less concerned because it's not something that you instantly see. What the hell has happened? We need to react to this. It's a much slower effect. So there's two ways to look at this. One is that this is this guy is just a very, very clever man who's an analyst and analyses all potential eventualities and has come to a conclusion that this is what's going to happen, possible. The other is that the guy knows a lot more because he's involved in some way. And I'm saying he's a, you know, he's involved in the sense of he's part of the system and therefore knows what the goal of the system is. So this is almost like a preemptive programming type situation where he's telling you what he thinks is going to happen, it's being presented as conjecture, it's being presented as opinion when he knows that's likely to be the reality, and it's just seeded there in people's minds. So when this comes out, when this starts to begin, people are more familiar with what is happening because they've heard it somewhere else before. It's that whole adage of the vampire has to be invited into your house, they can't just break in, they have to tell you what they're doing to a degree, which is why this cult used symbolism and they use subtle hints as to what they're doing all the time. Hence, you know, hunter virus. Hunter in Hebrew means bullshit. It's a slang term for bullshit, literally called bullshit virus. So they always have to tell you what they're doing. And it kind of feels with this guy. I don't know too much about him, I've seen a bit of him in the last few months. It feels like the predictions that he makes don't feel like they're coming from a position where he's just looked at an anal situation and thought this is what could happen. Feels to me like it's a bit more this guy's a bit more in the no than he perhaps is letting on. But it's it's it's a it's a truly bizarre situation that we're seeing because two men essentially, Netanyahu and Trump, as we've covered before, have have started this process. Obviously, they're they're run and owned by people behind the scenes, but in the public eye, two men have started this situation, which could lead to, according to this guy anyway, the death of three-quarters of the people on the planet right now. And a few people can't control the many. I mean this is utterly, utterly unbelievable when you look at it. And the impacts of this war are already being felt. This is obviously a a situation where he's basing it on this continuing, but the impact's already being felt. If you look at this particular part of the story, the UN's Food and Agriculture Organization has warned that nearly a third of fertilizers run through the Strait of Hormuz, which is obviously blocked at the moment, and it's expected to impact next year's harvest already. Talking about 45 million additional people being put into potential starvation. Forty-five million people. That's like two-thirds of this country. That's the kind of numbers that you're talking about. That's entire nations, that's multiple nations. That's that's that have had this impact already. That's without this prediction that it continues being a reality. It's uh interesting times and and dark times. But as I say always, with dark times comes great opportunity because the whole concept of freedom just being another word for nothing left to lose, it's true. Because when you've got nothing left to lose, when you're at the point that you're facing starvation and impending death and so on, what have you got to lose? Why would you sit and let this continue? Well, you're not gonna, are you? So hopefully, as they push and squeeze and try and manipulate more and more and more, people go, you know what? I've sat by, I've let it happen, I've been too scared to do anything about it, but what's the point? What's more scary than starving to death? What's more scary than not being able to leave my house? Well, it's time to stand up and do something about it, and hopefully that back against the wall type situation will lead people to come out swinging. I sincerely hope so, because if it doesn't, then who knows where we're gonna live in 10 years, 20 years' time. Sobering thought on this Wednesday morning, but also an opportunity, also a big, big chance to make some big impacts in changing this reality. Right, that's it for the free version of the show.
