CAMPBELL Dear Reader, Picture this: the year is 2008. The world is shrouded in an ominous cloud of financial catastrophe. Stock markets are in freefall, a cascade of numbers in the red, and families everywhere are feeling the squeeze. The collective consciousness is consumed by the harsh, biting reality of the Great Recession. But amidst this global turmoil, another storm is brewing, largely unnoticed by the masses. A cold wind begins to blow across the vast plains of Eastern Europe, signaling a critical turning point in an age-old conflict. Recall, George W. Bush was pushing to expand NATO, with Georgia and Ukraine being prime candidates. This decision wasn't met with applause from every corner, least of all from Putin. Fast-forward to today, it’s become a powder keg half-blown, teetering on the edge of sucking the entire world into its blast radius. Today, we’ll outline how we got here… How to prepare for the worst… And why our colleague believes WWIII has already begun. Inside Putin’s Brain Putin’s negative reaction wasn’t without reason. Recall… NATO, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, is first-and-foremost a military alliance. Inherently antagonistic to Russia, it was originally formed during the Cold War as a deterrent against the Soviet Union. While the Cold War has ended, Russia still views NATO with suspicion and considers its expansion, especially into countries that were once part of the Soviet Union or within its sphere of influence, as a direct threat to its security. For two reasons: Encirclement: Russia views the eastward expansion of NATO as an attempt to encircle it strategically, potentially threatening its borders. The inclusion of Georgia and Ukraine, both bordering Russia, would extend this military alliance to Russia's doorstep. This is seen as a provocative act and a potential security threat. Influence: Both Georgia and Ukraine were once part of the Soviet Union. The move to include them in NATO was seen as an attempt to diminish Russia's influence in these regions and move them firmly into the sphere of influence of the West. Putin’s response to Dubya’s chess move was loud and clear. In August 2008, he invaded Georgia as a warning shot that Russia wouldn’t accept NATO membership. “The West persisted,” says Jim. “In January 2014, the CIA and MI6 organized a coup d’état against the duly elected president of Ukraine who was pro-Russian. The coup involved snipers in Maidan Square in Kyiv shooting innocent protestors to encourage more violence. The president fled the country and a U.S. puppet was installed.” One month later, in February 2014, Putin’s mercenaries took over Ukraine’s Crimean Peninsula, which was later annexed and made part of Russia. For those keeping score, that’s two NATO threats and two Putin-led invasions. Secret Gold Back currency RUINING Bidenâs plans for a digital dollar? [Click here to learn more]( What I’m holding in my hand is a completely new form of money… As we speak, it's being used as an alternative currency across the U.S. minting in places like Utah, New Hampshire and Nevada… And since it’s made out of a thinly printed sheet of REAL gold... It may be the single best way to protect your wealth from Biden’s plan for a government controlled digital dollar. That’s why, I want to offer to send one to you today. But since I have a limited number I need you to respond to [this message]( by Wednesday at midnight. [I’ve recorded a short 2 minute message that explains everything here.]( Why Poke the Bear? Why was the US so adamant about getting these countries into NATO? Ah, the billion-dollar question. “The only explanation for U.S. insistence on NATO membership in the face of Russia’s opposition,” says Jim, “is that U.S. warmongers wanted a war with Russia. In 2022, they got the war they wanted.” That’s when Russia pulled a full-on blitzkrieg on Ukraine. (Not a total shocker for followers of Paradigm. Rickards warned it was coming in the fall of 2021.) The goal of the US warmongers, says Jim, was never to help Ukraine: “It was to use Ukraine as a springboard for the overthrow of Putin. It was also believed that a war in Ukraine would gradually bleed Russia of soldiers, weapons, and money and leave it vulnerable to U.S. influence, again with the goal of overthrowing Putin.” Except, according to Jim, now the opposite is happening. “The U.S. and its NATO allies are the ones being bled dry,” Jim says. “German Leopard tanks are being destroyed on the battlefield in Ukraine. The British have asked the Ukrainians not to deploy their Challenger tanks because they’re afraid the Challengers will be left burning also, which will destroy confidence in UK military readiness (as it should).” As a result, Jim writes, we can’t rule out US boots on the ground and tactical nukes. “This,” he said, “would be the preferred outcome for the U.S. warmongers such as Tony Blinken, Victoria Nuland, Jake Sullivan, and Joe Biden. That will be tantamount to World War III.” But before you go hide in the bunker, Jim adds an important hedge: “I give this a low probability of happening. But, where nuclear war is concerned even a probability of 5% is too high for comfort. A backlash has already begun among more sober U.S. foreign policy establishment such as Richard Haas and CIA Director William Burns.” Whatever the case, the ongoing conflict with Ukraine could spell disaster for the global economy. As is our beat, we ask: Where does this leave investors? How to Prepare? “In the World War III scenario,” says Jim, “the only safe havens will be gold, silver, land and commodities. Stock and bond markets will collapse.” Even if the war continues on an open-ended basis, Jim goes on, expect higher energy prices this winter (despite recession) and commodity price inflation as world trade continues to be disrupted by sanctions. “Europe had a mild winter last year but may not be so lucky this coming winter.” And if peace talks commence? “The sanctions will not end right away. So, the economic outlook will resemble the open-ended war scenario.” But don't hold your breath for any immediate relief. The war may well rage on until the end of the year, with peace talks potentially only in the cards for early next year. The resulting uncertainty is bound to impact economic growth. But it gets even more harrowing. The scary truth? WWIII is already upon us. A New Type of War “America is barreling into a new type of war,” says Jim. “It’s not being fought with guns and tanks, but with your money.” Readers and members of our team had the chance to see Jim’s “secret currency indicator” in action last night. And as Jim showed us, it flashed something scary. One currency in serious danger of crashing… Perhaps just a few weeks from now. If you missed it, [the replay is live right here at this link](.
