Doug Casey's International Man
We are likely witnessing the end of US global dominance, much like the fall of the British Empire in the wake of the world wars and the 1956 Suez Canal Crisis, but significantly more consequential. No matter what happens, the outcome of the Iran war will make it clear to the world that the emperor has no clothes. Many people are unprepared for such a historic shift. But when you put all the pieces together, the Big Picture becomes clear. Changes in the world order are rare, history-defining events—with massive implications, both geopolitical and financial. We are living through one of those rare moments right now. That’s why it’s critical to tune out the noise, cut through the propaganda, and understand the true geopolitical landscape.

I'm an American. I admit Iran has won the war. The U.S. is not the superpower I believed it was.

@casonmr @Microinteracti1 Europe follows the US in to their wars, not the other way around. Whats this obsession with being thanked? So insecure. 'Free' healthcare isn't funded by the US in the slightest. It comes from our taxes. Back to school!

The MAGA crowd in Washington has decided that since Europeans don’t sufficiently appreciate Trump, the American bases on the continent must go. This is the strategic reasoning of a man who burns down his own kitchen. American bases in Europe were never a favour. They are the logistical spine of every war the United States fights east of Gibraltar. Ramstein moves the cargo, Aviano launches the jets, Rota services the ships. Without them the Pentagon does not project power into the Middle East. It projects PowerPoint. The fantasy assumes the alternative is aircraft carriers gliding majestically into the Persian Gulf. That era is ending. A modern carrier is a thirteen-billion-dollar trophy that can be reduced to scrap by a couple of hundred cheap missiles fired from the Iranian coast. China noticed. The other fantasy is that America simply fights from home. Picture the alternative: twenty thousand transatlantic sorties shuttling spare parts, munitions, fuel bladders, mechanics and replacement pilots from Norfolk and Dover to wherever the war happens to be. A C-17 burns through roughly 35,000 dollars of fuel every hour it flies, and the round trip from the American east coast to the Gulf is the better part of a day. Multiply that by every bolt, every missile, every spare engine. The war becomes a sustained airborne traffic jam with the bill arriving by the second. So you need land, specifically land near the war. Modern combat aircraft are not Spitfires you fuel up and send off with a wave. An F-35 demands an entire Walmart of spare parts, a small city of technicians, climate-controlled hangars and a supply chain stretching halfway round the planet. Drones need operators, networks, satellites and a steady diet of components no carrier can store. Modern war arrives by container ship and lives in a warehouse. Close the bases, and Washington loses the warehouses. Lose the warehouses, and the next confrontation with Iran is either fought by phone or fought from Kansas with a flight schedule that bankrupts the Treasury before the first missile lands. MAGA thinks shutting Ramstein punishes Europe. It punishes America. Europe will be inconvenienced. America will be unarmed. And so, after a thousand insults, a thousand sneers, a thousand late-night posts about freeloading allies, Europe is quietly drafting the politest letter in diplomatic history. It thanks America for its service. It wishes the troops a safe journey home. It suggests, with great warmth, that Washington might now turn its attention to its neighbours in Latin America, where a fading superpower can busy itself with whatever a fading superpower busies itself with. Spain had its century. Britain had its empire. The Soviets had their parades. Each ended the same way: as a shadow of itself, with the historians left to argue, volume after volume, about precisely when the rot set in and why nobody noticed in time. America is welcome to join them on the shelf.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ If you like what you read, please follow Gandalv on Substack: @gandalv" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">substack.com/@gandalv

@Visionary_Mike The difference is Charlie Kirk was a decent person. George Floyd was not even close. Also, Charlie Kirk didn't die from an overdose, he was assassinated.

If we have so much oil and gas in the United States, why are the prices so high at the gas station? Explain it to me like I’m 5.

This Iran War is such a mess, and will only get messier. President Trump should get out before it inflicts even more economic, political and presidential legacy damage. Trust your gut, Mr President, not the war hawks. Thankyou for your attention to this matter! PSM.

@EricSpracklen That's exactly why it is important to make more money. If you think you can do better, try running for president.

@Nadira_ali12 Iran "says" they dont have a nuke. So, does Israel. I dont believe either of them. Iran also lied about its missiles and their ranges. The only reason to enrich uranium to that high of a level is to use it in a weapon.

What is hilarious is that Ancient Egyptians invented cutleries. They first used forks ceremonially, then for cooking. Then forks were used as a tableware around 400AD in the Middle East. Europeans only used forks in the dinning table in 1533 when Catherine De Medici, wife of Henry II, brought them back to France from a trip to Italy. And in the American colonies, forks didn’t start gaining popularity until the mid-late 17th century.

@GlobalIJournal The only reason they liked Americans before is because they were protected by Americans or profited from Americans. Now you see who they really are. They were never your friends. Now, they have to protect themselves. The trade agreements aren't one sided anymore.

🇺🇸 An American young man: I am now in Japan. And when I say that I am American, people look at me with contempt and disgust. And wherever I go in the world and say that I am from America, people look at me with hatred. We are now in a state of humiliation. This is disgusting and shameful, simply.

@RTSG_Main Capitalism has brought more people out of poverty than any other economic system that has ever existed. Poor communists are just jealous.

@greg_price11 These lunatics cant make their minds up about masks. First, they make everyone wear them, now they dont want people wearing them for their own protection. They only care about themselves.

Connecticut Attorney General William Tong on his attempt to override federal law by banning ICE from wearing masks: "We are sovereign in this state. We are the sovereign state of Connecticut... We are joined together by our consent in a federation known as the United States."
