World War Three Chronicles, Part 2

As World War Three progresses with the proxy war in Ukraine grinding the nation and its war weary people into dust, we need to pay close attention to the second front. The systematic demolition of US Dollar Hegemony.

Part one of this series is embedded here: World War Three Chronicles, Part1

We are witnessing epochal changes in the global economy with the independent states, centred around the BRIC’s nations, now trading oil in their own currencies.
This development represents an existential threat not ‘just’ for US Dollar hegemony but for US military and industrial hegemony in what has rapidly become a multi-polar world.
China and to a lesser extent Russia are masters of “Soft Power”. The controlled demolition of US dollar hegemony is clearly underway.

Let’s take a field trip to the frontlines. Batton down the hatches, it’s going to be one hell of a transition, let’s hope we survive it! I would rate our chances as slim because of the mendacity existing in the USA and the impossibility of it meeting it’s debt obligations once the Greenback is no longer the worlds reserve currency.

“Brian Berletic and Danny Haiphong discuss the HUGE implications of Saudi Arabia taking steps to join China in forging peace in the Middle East.”

“The BRICS collective, comprising Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa, is working on a common currency in an attempt to ditch the US dollar and push back against America’s dominance. The move comes as Moscow and Beijing call for de-dollarisation in the face of Western sanctions”.
Dumping the Dollar: Will a new BRICS currency replace the US currency for trade?

“As the United States combats a recent flood of countries ‘de-dollarizing‘ – trading commodities in other currencies, the last thing that was needed was French President Emanuel Macron amplifying this message.
If Macron keeps talking like that, I can feel an “Arab Spring” being forced on France.

“March 31, it was reported that France became the first European country in the West to sign a trade agreement allowing payment in yuan instead of dollars or euros. The state-owned company Total, the world’s second-largest LNG giant, was the first to carry the flag of de-dollarization, signing the first LNG purchase agreement with a Chinese state-owned oil company to pay in yuan, while the gas was imported from the United Arab Emirates. This new landscape in global energy markets and international reserve asset space now suggests that the role of the U.S. dollar is being weakened or shared, especially as landmarks of de-dollarization by several major Middle Eastern oil-producing countries, represented by Saudi Arabia, Iran and others, continue to emerge and be exploited. The European Central Bank, Switzerland, Japan, the United Kingdom, Sweden, and the Bank for International Settlements have formed a digital currency development group to bypass the centrality of the dollar. The SHTA trade facility being developed in Switzerland to help the Iranian central bank settle cross-border has also carried out a number of international transactions that bypass the dollar settlement. Switzerland has officially started the process of building a yuan hub, replacing some of its dollar reserves with yuan by selling off dollars in the international reserve space.”

I take the same position as the “view of the highly respected French anthropologist, Emmanuel Todd.”
” We are now one errant missile away from World War III. Some go so far as to argue that World War III has already begun.” De-Dollarization. A discussion at the Valdai Club in Rome.

We have never been in a more dangerous position that we are today, the Cuban Missile Crisis notwithstanding. During the Cuban Missile Crisis all of the parties were at least sane. I would question that today looking at the pathology existing on Capitol Hill.

The USA is broke, and the end of US dollar hegemony is clearly underway. Imagine, a nuclear armed bankrupt whose normal reaction to a ‘problem’ is to bomb it!!!!!

All declining empires in history lash out at their victims and take their vassal states down with them, tragically this declining empire is nuclear armed and controlled by the sociopaths of the Military Industrial Congressional Complex.

We are witnessing the end of an era, or should I say the end of an error?

It’s hard for me to not see this leading to an armed conflict between the collapsing “Empire of Chaos and the new Russia/China led axis! The Empire of Chaos phrase is attributed to the wonderful geo-political analyst Pepe Escobar.
“The third and the final stage on the new economic order transition will involve a creation of a new digital payment currency founded through an international agreement based on principles of transparency, fairness, goodwill and efficiency.”
“I expect that the model of such a monetary unit that we developed will play its role at this stage. A currency like this can be issued by a pool of currency reserves of BRICS [Brazil, Russia, India and China] countries, which all interested countries will be able to join”.
Pepe Escobar: On the Dawn of a New Global Financial System

“To be an enemy of America can be dangerous, but to be a friend is fatal.” ~ #HenryKissinger

“Countries worldwide are dropping the US dollar: De-dollarization in China, Russia, Brazil, ASEAN”.

German foreign minister: ‘We are fighting a war against Russia’
“We are fighting a war against Russia”, Germany’s Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock told the Council of Europe. “We can fight this war only together” she said, calling to send tanks and more weapons to Ukraine.”

If the German Foreign Minister thinks their country is at war with Russia, why wouldn’t we?

I’ve previously covered on this blog the environmental implications of all this warmongering:
““U.S. Military World’s Largest Polluter – Hundreds Of Bases Gravely Contaminated
Producing more hazardous waste than the five largest U.S. chemical companies combined, the U.S. Department of Defense has left its toxic legacy throughout the world in the form of depleted uranium, oil, jet fuel, pesticides, defoliants like Agent Orange and lead, among other pollutants.”
“One of the most recent testaments to the U.S. military’s horrendous environmental record is Iraq.”
“U.S. military action there has resulted in the desertification of 90 percent of Iraqi territory, crippling the country’s agricultural industry and forcing it to import more than 80 percent of its food. The U.S.’ use of depleted uranium in Iraq during the Gulf War also caused a massive environmental burden for Iraqis. In addition, the U.S. military’s policy of using open-air burn pits to dispose of waste from the 2003 invasion has caused a surge in cancer among U.S. servicemen and Iraqi civilians alike.”
Militarism’s Role in the Sixth and Possibly Last ‘Great’ Extinction

What happened the last time a major oil producing nation decided to walk away from the Greenback?
“Before the fall of Tripoli and his untimely demise, Gaddafi was trying to introduce a single African currency linked to gold. Following in the foot steps of the late great pioneer Marcus Garvey who first coined the term ”United States of Africa”. Gaddafi wanted to introduce and only trade in the African gold Dinar  – a move which would have thrown the world economy into chaos.”
Libya: Ten Things About Gaddafi They Don’t Want You to Know











The Empire of Chaos demonised Colonel Gaddafi because he was the greatest Pan-African in history imho. He was murdered because he was creating a unified African Union. The colonial powers run by their corporations would have none of it, so they had him murdered, much to the delight of the monster Hillary Clinton. His legacy in Africa will outlive the Greenback.

“Hence, when able to attack, we must seem unable; when using our forces, we must seem inactive; when we are near, we must make the enemy believe we are far away; when far away, we must make him believe we are near.” ― Sun Tzu, The Art of War:

Brace for imminent impact as we bare witness to the non-linear unraveling of the biosphere and habitability disappearing for most if not all complex life on the only habitable planet we know of. To quote President Niinistö in North Russia: ‘If We Lose the Arctic, We Lose the World’. Folks we have lost the Arctic.

    Will Trump Break the Nuclear Taboo?

    In addition to the widening of the war on Iran to the whole Middle East and beyond, this conflict risks deliberate use of nuclear weapons, write Peter Kuznick and Ivana Nikolic Hughes.

    Would it surprise anyone if the demented wealthy Sociopath with Dementia that is in control of the USA ordered nuclear strikes on Iran?

Kevin Hester is currently living on Rakino Island, a small island in the Hauraki Gulf near Auckland, New Zealand, monitoring the unravelling of the biosphere and volunteering at the Rakino Island Nursery is currently developing a proposal to create a marine reserve near by. The Island has no grid tied electricity or reticulated water.  I catch my own water from the roof and generate my electricity from the ample solar radiation on the island.
