Money & Markets

All the Marbles

John Titus and Catherine Austin Fitts discuss the U.S.-Israeli war on Iran as an “all the marbles” bid to preserve dollar-system control, arguing the public rationale is false, negotiations were used as cover, and diplomacy is collapsing. They review Marco Rubio’s “imminent threat” claims, assess tactics targeting civilian infrastructure, and warn U.S./Israeli interceptor stockpiles may exhaust quickly versus Iran’s much larger missile inventory, raising risks of escalation including boots on the ground. They cover spillover impacts—UAE AWS outages, insurance-market cancellations centered in London, and Qatar LNG disruptions—plus oil, gold, Treasury, and dollar index moves and accelerated de-dollarization scenarios. The episode also links AI and the control grid: the Trump administration pressuring Anthropic, war-game AIs choosing nukes, court rulings making AI legal queries discoverable, keyword warrants, Palantir’s expanded DHS role, stablecoin programming and censorship, and state-level efforts to add guardrails against programmable money.

  1. This is a time when anything is possible. Yes, of course they have hidden weaponry, we experienced it on 9/11 and in other inexplicable tragic events. Yes, earthquake weaponry is available based on Tesla’s incredible discoveries only to see him die poor in a NYC hotel and his papers picked up by the US government and let’s not forget, Trump’s uncle. Thank you for your beautiful “Daily Prayers”. After doing my usual morning news review it was so horrific watching the death and destruction I had to stop. So I located your prayer book and the powerful St. Patrick’s “Deer Cry, Breastplate” prayer. Thanks as always for the very best intelligence in the world–you prepared, educated and warned us so here we are. I leave you with this powerful prayer:

  2. I would guess the endgame is for US to seize Strait of Hormuz and provide safe passage and insurance for all outgoing vessels. That would require all ships to register with US system , declare Buyer and Seller contracts, and I would guess they would prohibit non USD trade that way. That may be why US wants to attack the Iranian Navy. Because for sure, it is unclear what the endgame is otherwise.

  3. Thinking more about all of the war. I don’t think any of it is a mistake. I also don’t think they want it to end quickly.

    As far as targeting civilians first, that is to make sure it is a long war. They knew after the 12 day war what would happen if they continue. They know after the Ukraine war that everything has moved to drones and all these old expensive wonder gear systems are obsolete.

    But even more, Russia and China went along with digital currency. They also went completely along with Covid.

    Right now, we are hand these dictatorships in Russia and China a story that they are the good guys and the West – western democracy is evil. It demoralized and enforces a story in the West that democracy doesn’t work and is evil. Is this not what they want.

    This seems very much like the playback they used with Nazi Germany to destroy and demoralize the Germans for nearly a century. Only now the Germans are the Isrealis and the Epstien class.

    We know they have served their function and with the new tech are no longer needed. They also want to dispense with Western democracy because it is inconvenient to have constitutions and laws. Behind the Rothchilds you have a monarchy. All the other English speaking countries have no freedom of speech and have king. A king that never went away. There is no freedom of speech in any of these countries.

    We now have a Europe that has been occupied by immigrants, but not any immigrants. They are all Muslim. We have just touched off a war to inflame all the Muslims. A holy war. All the western governments are publicly working with the Jewish state to kill Muslims. I am sure this is being fed on social media to all of them.

    We know they have been poisoning all the west, destroying infrastructure, putting up narrative that they are colonists and occupiers, the culture is corrupt etc. The esptien class is being held out now as the prime example of this. We also know they are no longer needed in a technocratic world. Shutting down the oil and shipping in the Middle East will further devastate everything in Europe. A long war would continue this.

    I cannot explain the oil price there is something about this I am not seeing, but I suspect they don’t plan to use oil at all. The is the trend. But they want the airlines bankrupt so you are forced into 15 min cities. They don’t want travel. I suspect it is a pause until the next phase is rolled out and then it will spike to shut it all down.

    I would think they have a currency other than the dollar ready – a “freedom coin” one sold as a rebellion against the dollar. Stick it to the imperialists by using this new great digital currency. Spread it among the Muslims in Europe and immigrants in the US. Use it to stick it to the Fed and the Epstein class. It is your freedom when it is instead your prison.

    1. Autocorrect- pulled out some of my words.

      *it is the Nazi Germany play not playback.

      Also I suspect oil is being held down, until they are ready to suddenly spike it to cause massive devastation. “Oil” is missing from those sentences.

  4. A couple of days ago I wrote to my House representative and both senators asking them to do their duty to stop this unconstitutional war. I have yet to hear from the senators, but the representative replied (quickly, to his credit) to me with his reasoning for his (in)actions:

    “Dear David,

    Thank you for contacting me to share your views concerning the recent military campaign in Iran. Listening to your thoughts and concerns helps me better represent the people of Utah’s First District in Congress.

    The recent military campaign against Iran has dealt a major blow to the largest state sponsor of terrorism in the world. Iran provided a safe harbor to Al Qaeda militants immediately after the 9/11 attacks and allowed its senior leaders to base their operations there. President Trump took decisive action to halt Ayatollah’s power under the 2001 Authorized Use of Military Force approved by Congress.

    This operation is about ending the threat posed to the United States by the Iranian Regime, which has killed thousands of U.S. soldiers over the years. Iran is the number one state sponsor of terrorism in the world, and it is a long-standing bipartisan policy of the United States to never allow Iran to obtain a nuclear weapon. President Trump fulfilled the requirements under the War Powers Resolution by providing notice to Congress before the attacks, and the White House plans to brief members throughout the operation. I do not plan to vote for the War Powers Resolution this week. This is the same position I took during the Biden administration. It would be irresponsible to tie the hands of the Commander in Chief and our military leaders as they work to defend American lives and protect our national interests.

    I’m saddened at the loss of the service members who were killed, and my prayers are with their families and other military members who were injured. We have many service members currently in harm’s way, and I hope and pray for their safety.

    I am very grateful that you took the time to contact me. Knowing your views gives me the opportunity to better understand how important issues impact you.”

    This was a new twist on war rationalization. I hadn’t seen this very tenuous logic for the war before. Given this condition of representation, I voted with a donation to representative Massey.

    1. Yup. More Pretzel Talk. It is a time when we each must go to the mat for the truth and those who do their best to tell it. Thanks for doing it.

    1. That video is total AI slop. Don’t pay attention to it. If you want to check anything it says, get independent corroboration.

      1. I’ll maybe dispute the “total”, but in essence, you are correct. More recent video goes into the subject of air defence more deeply with Prof Tostol :
        https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q2yQ3kBAQIk
        “Among other things, he explained that he had spent the last three decades regularly explaining to top Pentagon officials how easily their anti-missile defensive systems could be defeated by these simple counter-measures, and the Iranians were now demonstrating that this analysis had been entirely correct.”
        From my own knowledge, I’ll suggest that once a “ballistic” missile has manouvre capability, then against the present generation of defence missiles, the probability of interception falls from 90% to 10% or less. It’s just simple math.
        Air-to-air missiles have an entirely different capability, though, with higher turn rates.
        As an aside, life may be attempting to imitate art.
        “All your base are belong to us” – from the 1991 video game ‘Zero Wing’ seems to have been taken up as a meme by Iran.

  5. Your news round-up is a weekly go-to for me. But this week my impression is John wasn’t using all the marbles. The marbles of X technologies and Biblical prophesy sat on the table as you were discussing US-Iran.

    Of course they are using X technologies! I’m just in medicine, where these technologies spin off into medical diagnostics and treatments. Directed energy medicine alone, nothing hidden, makes it obvious DEW and other advanced, even anti-gravity propulsion technology exist. Please take time to read Technocracy News or Daniel Liszt’s Dark Journalist reports or whatever other sources. Tehran is having severe drought. Is that not in part weather warfare?

    Secrecy is essential for the reasons Goebbels, Hitler’s Propaganda minister explained. The truth must be hidden, in order for them to work. The Epstein files have shown the opposite of what you say, John. These people are capable of mafia-like enforcement. So many mysterious deaths?

    Why not use the Bible as a guide? The Epstein files expose comes right out of Amos 2 for example. And historians and archeologists reference the Bible for historical battles. The Bible is plain-speaking and talks about the coming war in plain terms.

    I’m looking forward to an analysis with “all the marbles.” Because you two have an excellent program going!

    1. John wants hard evidence. And I am with him. Has been a huge frustration for me that I can not get better intel than discerning patterns or my immediate observations. The financai. patterns have convinced me of something more than what was used to dustify the WTC, but need much more.
