Say Goodbye to ‘Normal’

Insanity, Messianic Fantasy or Corporate Greed, the End Will Be the Same.

If you ever wondered what it was like to be a young man in the early autumn 1914, you know now. Regardless of your age, the war on Iran has already ended that last carefree summer. It is now only a matter of days, and one more escalation in the clashes already occurring, before the comfort and ease you grew up regarding as ‘normal’ have gone forever.

No-one should be surprised. The moment we collectively went along with the NeoCon drive to make the world safe for Zionist genocide by destroying every inconvenient nation in the way, it was inevitable that, sooner or later, the turmoil would reach the places which produce so much of the oil and gas on which our tawdry but cosy ‘civilisation’ depends.

Nor have we any right to complain about whatever may result. Scum rises to the top, and we have allowed the scum of a toxic plutocracy to weaponise evil and send it out to ruin the world for others. So now it’s coming for us too.

The Washington/Wall Street/Pentagon mafia unleashed armies of head-chopping Jihadi savages on the ancient land of Syria. MI6 and successive British governments joined Sunni theocracies, Mossad and Brussels to aid and abet this crime, while we turned away from the slaughter which was funded with our taxes.

I flew to Damascus and helped to delay the disaster, and to his eternal credit, Ed Milliband ordered Labour MPs to vote against it as well but, collectively, the people of Britain share the guilt for the Islamist terror which now grips the cradle of Christianity.

Then they summonsed the ghosts of Hitler’s war of extermination against the Slavs to turn battalions of Dark Side Nazis on families and towns whose only crime was to be Russian. We allowed our entire political and media class, and our pathetic DEI-obsessed excuse for a military, to pour billions into the war to make Russia safe for BlackRock and buggery.

Most gruesome of all, we have watched, almost absent-mindedly, as our taxes, debts and weapons factories have enabled the genocidal grinding into blood and dust of the men, women and children of the world’s biggest ever concentration camp.

How can so many people who, even if no longer actually Christian, still understand the concept of karma, expect to allow such horrors without – sooner or later – the good Lord, or Fate, bringing the bill for such wickedness and dereliction of basic human duty to their own front door? (I won’t even get started on industrial-scale abortion, not least because the punishment for that is heading our way in the form of demographic disaster, rather than warfare between armies).

The impact of the Purim War on us has been blunted temporarily by the largest release of oil reserves in history, and by the fact that the tankers which have kept things going so far were already at sea before Netanyahu and Trump broke the sanctity of truce and negotiations with the assassination of their opposite numbers.

That crime further highlights the lurch from the norms of civilisation, as codified in 1648 at the end of the war which killed off one third of much of Europe. The Treaty of Westphalia did not merely end the Thirty-Year War, it was also the incarnation of an ambition to curb the worst ravages of war in general.

It tried to create a world in which even smaller nations had rights which trumped force of arms and the ambitions of the mighty. Donald Trump’s boast that his own conscience is the only thing that can restrain him thus marked the symbolic end of the worn out ‘civilisation’ of the West.

If the world’s greatest and most beautiful bragster was simultaneously leading an imperial assault on space, boldly going where no man, blah, blah, blah, it might be possible to see the abandonment of earth-bound restrictions on the power of the Inter-Galactic Empire as historical inevitability and the price of progress.

He doesn’t. Trump is sitting on a gigantic pile of unrepayable debt, surrounded by collapsing post-industrial cities, where drugged zombies stagger through filthy, broken streets which once epitomised the American dream. Even his mighty military is being humiliated by the tenacity, rockets and throw-away drones of a second-rate power which he expected to lay in the dust after three or four days.

So does not Trump’s plight suggest that, within a short time, things will go back to normal? That, perhaps, this isn’t autumn 1914, but – for those of us not in Syria, Lebanon, the Donbass, Gaza or Tehran – just the spring of a trying, but essentially normal, year?

It’s already looking extremely unlikely. If, IF we get the Mother of All TACOs. If, as well as chickening out Trump also gets Netanyahu to abandon his (un)holy war on the Persian Amalek. And if the Iranians are satisfied with humiliating the Great Satan and buying time to build themselves the simple nuclear deterrent which religious scruples prevented being acquired before – if all three ‘ifs’ turn to ‘yes’, then we may just get away with it.

For sure, we will get a nasty recession, increased pressure for mass migration from very hungry countries in Africa and Asia, and a fresh brush with thermonuclear obliteration within the next couple of years, as China moves to take Taiwan before the USA rebuilds its exhausted supply of smart missiles.

Apart from those minor inconveniences, we might be free to continue relatively normal lives, as best we can in our bankrupt, multicultural slum. We should be able to eke out a few more years pretending that everything’s basically OK, even though, in truth, we live in a dying industrial civilisation, steadily collapsing due to irreversible demographic decline and the inherent contradictions of the fiat money banking swindle.

But that ‘happy ending’ is only possible if each of those three ifs turns into a yes – and that looks extremely unlikely. Why should the Iranians accept peace instead of victory, which they can see just a couple of months away?

The USA is now only two weeks off running out of its much-vaunted ATACMS and PrSM offensive missiles and, far worse, is due to have burnt through all its THAAD anti-missile munitions by 17^th April (earlier than that if the Iranians manage to take out any more of the $1Billion-a-pop batteries).

Even while still firing on all cylinders, the US war machine has suffered massive blows, with 13 of its Middle East bases rendered ‘uninhabitable’ by Iranian strikes by last week, and the situation getting more precarious by the day. Israel’s Iron Dome is likewise starting to look very rusty.

The pinpoint accurate destruction of the $500m E-3 Sentry plane at the Prince Sultan airbase is only a hint of what will happen when US missiles stocks run out before Iran has used up all its remaining missiles and drones.

Of course, Iran has been hit much harder, but the country has the ability to soak up far more punishment, particularly compared to America, where this is already the most unpopular war ever. Like the Vietnamese, the Iranians could lose every battle but still win the war.

As for the Israeli ‘if’, there have been huge demonstrations against the war in Tel Aviv, but a large majority of the population want it to go on until Iran is ‘destroyed’, whatever that means in a country bigger than Spain, France and Germany combined.

The Messianic religious nuts propping up Netanyahu’s coalition are even more motivated, seeing the total destruction of Iran, and the worldwide chaos that would produce, as part of a master-plan to summons up their anti-Christ Messiah and create a one world Noahide government ruling the goyim with a rod of iron from the blood-spattered Third Temple.

Of course, they’re not all as mad as that. Essentially secular Zionists ‘only’ want Eretz Israel, which includes not just Lebanon and much of Iraq but also a huge chunk of Saudi Arabia. Provoking Iran to do their dirty work and smash the Saudi kingdom is a generally unnoticed part of their ‘cunning plan’.

Since Iran and Israel aren’t ready to stop the war, it doesn’t really matter if Donald chickens out or not. That’s particularly true if he makes good on his latest apparently insane threat to “conclude our lovely stay in Iran” by obliterating not just Iran’s oil industry on Kharg Island but also its electricity generating capacity and desalination plants.

I say ‘apparently insane’, because this would not be war against Iran, but the destruction of normality right across the world. And it would not be Caligula-style insanity, but cold, deliberate malice, if not from the Orange Emperor himself then certainly from those advising him.

The giveaway is the threat to hit Iran’s desalination plants. Iran has a plethora of reservoirs, lakes and rivers, so these plants supply less than three per cent of its water needs. Compared to the destruction of military bases, port facilities, schools, hospitals and industries which has already taken place, the loss of a handful of unimportant desalination plants would be a minor inconvenience to Iran.

The aim of such strikes would therefore not be to pile pain on Tehran, but rather to provoke the Iranians into tit-for-tat retaliation against America’s puppet Sunni regimes. Unlike Iran, the wholesale destruction of their desalination plants would render them uninhabitable, and unable to keep industries and data centres running for more than a few days.

This would be on top of the damage inflicted on Gulf infrastructure up until now, which has already seen an estimated 40% of the region’s oil and gas facilities either destroyed or seriously damaged.

If Trump escalates as threatened, then his “should I stay or should I go?” market-manipulation musings will become as irrelevant as the question of whether the Strait of Hormuz is open and free, open under an Iranian toll system, or completely shut.

When news outlets tell us that “25% of the world’s seaborne oil passes through the Strait of Hormuz”, they are being characteristically economical with the truth. The hydrocarbons don’t just sail through the sea there, they are also produced, processed and loaded a bit further up the dead-end inlet.

If Trump destroys Iran’s oil facilities, then they will respond not be choking the transport of oil and gas, but by destroying the whole industry – including the Saudi facilities on the east coast of the Red Sea. A further 12% of the world’s global seaborne oil and 8% of worldwide LNG also passes through the Red Sea’s Bab el-Mandeb Strait. Iran’s Houthi allies are completely capable of closing that too, even if the Iranians don’t destroy the facilities which produce it in the first place.

The damage already done makes the fuel crisis much worse than the four-fold increase in price (to the dizzying height of $12 a barrel) of oil back in 1973. In response to US support for Israel in the Yom Kippur War against Egypt and Syria, Saudi Arabia imposed an oil embargo against America and her allies.

The resulting energy shock threw the West into deep recession, but it was never anything more than a political choice. Not one pipe or storage tank was damaged during the crisis, the embargo was ended after six months, and the petrodollar deal which settled things provided the financial basis of more than fifty years of American world hegemony.

America would provide the military support to keep the corrupt, Wahhabi House of Saud in power and, in return, the Saudis would price their oil – and thus every barrel of oil sold on the planet, in dollars. Everyone wanting to buy oil had to buy dollars, which the Federal Reserve simply printed. Anyone who tried to sell their oil in anything but dollars ended up like Gaddafi, Saddam Hussein or Maduro. Things didn’t ‘go back to normal’, the deal created the basis of what we have come to regard as normal.

Oil is not just the source of your overpriced petrol and diesel, it is the foundation of the entire modern world. Food, plastic, medicine, clothing, phone, flights and travel – all are not only built on oil but are made affordable by cheap oil.

The assumption of cheap, abundant energy, fertiliser and industrial feedstocks is over. We are already guaranteed many months of inflated fuel prices, and a series of eye-watering hikes in food prices. A serious dip in global food production is also already inevitable.

We’re not going to run out of food in Britain, the USA and other Western countries, although even more farmers will be driven out of business. The giant grain corporations have vast reserves, which they will very gladly sell us at inflated prices, while their counterparts like Monsanto and BlackRock continue to snap up distressed family farms.

For us, it will basically be capitalist looting as normal, albeit much more painful. But in poorer parts of the world, particularly in Africa and the Indian subcontinent, real hunger, economic agony and resulting political upheavals will destabilise entire countries.

This latest Zionist and US Military-Industrial-Complex war is going to unleash yet another torrent of desperate refugees. Despite all the understandable public anger about the way our benefits system fuels mass immigration, the pull of the welfare state is nothing like as strong as the push of hunger and chaos.

Combined with our own ageing population, this means there’s going to be mass immigration far worse than anything we’ve seen so far. The leaders of the populist safety valves created by the elite, to channel public concern and ensure the flow is not interrupted, will earn their thirty pieces of silver soon enough.

Exactly how badly the Iran War ends for us is still in the balance. If it does stop soon without further escalation, then the coming recession will end after a year or so. But the WEF’s Net Zero assault on our living standards will have received a massive long-term boost. Higher spending on preparations for the EU and British war against Russia, and for America’s forthcoming confrontation with China, will only add to the pain. That’s as good as it can get.

It could very easily get a whole lot worse. If Trump and Netanyahu spark the destruction of the entire Middle Easter hydrocarbon industry, then the resulting shock will involve financial and economic catastrophe for ordinary people across the world. All of us. The scale of supply and demand destruction will turn the temporary lockdowns by dictate of the Covid plandemic into a permanent lockdown by poverty and shortages.

You will be barred from taking foreign holidays, from making those long car journeys, from buying out-of-season vegetables flown from halfway round the world, and from eating steak – not by government decree but by the rationing of price. You will find yourself owning less and less, and you won’t be going very far.

To give you just one small example: According to the CEO of United Airlines, jet fuel prices have now “more than doubled in the last three weeks” and experts warned that unless oil prices soon come down, some major US airlines may “not survive.”

Exactly what the Rockefeller Foundation’s WEF, Klaus Schwab and Charles Windsor ordered, and there is a host of similar normality-wrecking changes in the pipeline. Doing it this way means that no individual politicians have to carry the can, and there is no possibility of any population voting the climate lockdown addicts out of power.

What is just one more turn of the ratchet away in the Gulf is exactly what the Westminster elite have done to Britain’s coal and energy industries when they have blown up every coal-fired power station the moment it’s been decommissioned. Once the oil, gas, urea, sulphur and helium plants of the Middle East have been destroyed, roughly thirty per cent of the basis of our modern world has gone. And your old normal has gone with it. Forever.

As we saw during the global elite’s ruthless exploitation of their Covid crisis, their aim is not to help us live well, but to force us to be frugal. Even the most benevolent of shepherds fleece all their flocks, and skin and eat and sell the bones of individual animals. But the corporate and political shepherds of the modern world are not benevolent in the slightest; we are in the hands of human monsters.

They are going all out to plunge us back into a world of scarcity, regardless of the fact that the energy plenty of the last two hundred years and the abundant food of the last 140 years has left us with a population far in excess of that which could be sustained by the pre-industrial agriculture to which they are returning us.

And despite the fact that mass immigration, which was sold to and imposed upon us while we were off our heads during the post-1973 global petroleum party, has turned most of the West into timebombs of ethno-religious strife.

Again, that was no accident. Old-fashioned nations composed of a single people would have risen up against the poverty and tyranny we are about to be forced to endure. Any time the denizens of a modern multiracial state look like challenging elite exploitation, on the other hand, the peasants with the pitchforks can be set against the peasants with the torches. Or, to put it another way, red ants and black ants.

One thing may initially strike you as odd: Since the Saudi/Gulf petrodollar is the root of fifty years of American prosperity, why on earth would any US President play with matches in the region, let alone think of using a significant part of his diminishing missiles stocks blowing it all to Hell?

If the Gulf States can’t sell oil, then there will be no petrodollars. That will destroy the US financial system and plunge America into a catastrophic economic crisis. How can that be in the interests of the USA?

Well, of course, it is not. But it could well be in the interests of certain elite forces within the USA. And, since the whole ‘democratic’ system has deteriorated into a shabby cloak for the rule of those elite forces, ‘We the People’ won’t get any say in the matter.

But how could even the greediest plutocrat or most avaricious corporation think they can benefit from the wholesale destruction of a huge slice of the world’s productive capacity? Well, there is a way.

It is possible to read the potential destruction of the Middle East as the work of one madman who has surrounded himself with a gang of looters, moochers and brown-nosing cowards. It is possible to read it as the work of the spoilt scions of inherited wealth, with nothing better to do with their time and money but to plot to depopulate the planet, or at least to ensure that the Great Unwashed can’t devalue their jet-setting lifestyle by sharing in it.

It is possible to see what is going on as the work of an unholy alliance of messianic lunatics from each of the three Peoples of the Book, led by the ultra-racist mania of an End Times cult which has emerged from the oldest. An essentially Satanic war against God and humanity.

But it is also possible to see it as the purely materialistic, coldly calculated response of the American financial/military/industrial elite to challenges which they found themselves unable to stop, but whose results they still hope to turn to their advantage.

We will examine that another day. For now, get out and enjoy a bit of the old normality, because you are not going to see it again.
