Review of the World Situation
If you ever had reason to prepare for an emergency / disaster now is the time. The world appears to be coming apart at the seams and in case you were sleeping the following will wake you up:
Social Unrest
World: On the heels of the so-called “Arab Spring” comes the Islamist Winter. Anti-American protests are flaring up all over the Muslim World and are increasing in strength. The map below, to include the highlighted areas are the latest areas where protesters are burning American Flags and trying to storm U.S. Embassies. (As of 9/18/12) The weak U.S. response emboldens even more Anti-US activity.
The U.S.: The left and the right are setting themselves up for a titanic battle in the U.S. Elections in November. The National Press has thrown all pretense of fairness away and has virtually become an arm of the Democratic Party. The real concern here is the day after the election and the inevitable social unrest that will occur.
The Economic Crisis
World: The European Union is on the brink of economic meltdown. Efforts to bail out the PIIGS of Europe (Portugal, Italy, Ireland, Greece, & Spain) are getting nowhere and it is only a matter of time before one of them completely defaults. Since this is a global economy this will affect the U.S. and could cause our weak economy to meltdown as well. Even China is going through an economic slowdown.
The U.S.: Our debt is now over $16 Trillion and our unfunded liabilities (federal pensions and benefits) are more than $120 Trillion. It is mathematically impossible to correct our disastrous economic condition and the Federal Reserve Bank has just started printing more money with QE3. With QE3 inflation prospects are very high especially after the failed QE1 and QE2. Commodities such as gas, food, & consumer goods are sure to rise very soon.
The U.S. also faces an avalanche of new taxes and automatic spending cuts culminating in January 2013 which will cause massive damage to the already weak U.S. economy. The U.S. Government appears helpless to stop this.
The Crisis in Iran
Israel is poised to launch an attack on Iran to take out their Nuclear Weapons program. The U.S. has been kicking this can down the road and signaling that when the attack occurs; Israel will be on their own. If our elections oust the Obama régime Israel will soon launch an attack that we will support leading to a potential World War.
What does all of this mean to you? Those that are not prepared are in for quite a surprise. If our economy goes into meltdown with all of the social problems we face now, we are in for a rough ride. Stores will be looted, the Government will squash all in their path, and the world will radically change for the worse. Please prepare yourselves so that we can pick up the pieces and try to rebuild this great nation.
