NATO Is Irrelevant in Today’s Multipolar World? So, why USG is Wasting our Tax Dollars?
Many wonders about how relevant NATO is in today’s multipolar world. It comes on the heels of NATO wanting to conduct the largest military exercise in its history next week. What for? Provocation? Intimidation?

Prepare to witness a significant departure from the long-standing US dollar-dominated system as 20 countries embark on a historic move to abandon its dominance in favor of their native currencies. Spearheaded by the expansion of BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China, & South Africa), this transformation marks a monumental shift in global economic power.
The BRICS has witnessed steady growth and influence, leading to Egypt, Ethiopia, Iran, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE officially joining the bloc on Jan/1/24. As a collective, these nations encompass an impressive 30% of the world's land surface & embrace 45% of the global population.

Who’s Behind Pakistan-Iran Recent Tensions?
In this video, I discuss the recent Iranian missile & drone strikes inside Pakistan that have raised significant concerns about the future security situation in an already fragile region. The tensions between Pakistan & Iran have escalated to the point where diplomatic ties between the two nations are on the verge of a breakdown.
On Tuesday night, an Iranian missile attack tragically resulted in the loss of two innocent children and the injury of three others. This incident has sparked outrage and prompted questions about the motives behind such a targeted strike.
There is speculation that both the CIA & Mossad, known for their involvement in fueling tensions through separatist groups, may have played a role in these attacks. These accusations only add to the complexities of the situation at hand.
Ultimately, the message conveyed by these missile strikes is clear - Iran possesses the capability to widen the conflict beyond the US’ intentions. The US, at the same time, is taking part in the Israeli war on the Palestinian people in Gaza.
Join me in this video I delve into the escalating tensions between Iran & Pakistan, shedding light on the repercussions these strikes may have on regional security.
Stay updated on the latest developments and analysis surrounding this critical issue.

North Korea is Not Bluffing!
As a geopolitical analyst, I fear that Asia could become the next conflict front, with superpowers like China, Russia, and the US having strategic interests in the region.
This comes on the heels of tensions between North and South Korea reaching a dangerous new level. North Korean leader Kim Jong Un made a stunning announcement, calling for a change in his country's constitution to declare South Korea a separate and hostile state. Is Kim preparing for a war? Why now?

Namibia Lashes out at Germany for Supporting Israel's Genocide in Gaza!!
Namibia rejected Germany's “shocking” support of Israel against genocide allegations at the International Court of Justice (ICJ), according to a statement from the President’s office on Saturday.
Interestingly, Germany has committed genocide against, both Israel and Namibia. You’ll think they will learn from history!

Biden Contributed to the Death of An American Citizen in Ukraine!
Gonzalo Lira, a Chilean-American war commentator known for his critical views on the Zelensky regime and Russia-Ukraine conflict, passed away on January 11, 2024, in a hospital in Kharkiv, Ukraine. Lira's death followed an eight-month imprisonment on charges of ”justifying Russia's military actions in Ukraine”, sparking international controversy and raising questions about freedom of speech and human rights during wartime.
Shame on the Biden for standing by and watching the death of American citizen.

Israel Trapped in Gaza!
Israel overestimated its strength & miscalculated its strategy when dealing with Hamas as the latter’s military wing, al-Qassam Brigades, welcomed 2024 with targeting Tel Aviv, its suburbs and the Gaza Strip were bombarded with rockets. Is it the reason why Israel is withdrawing its forces? Is the collapse of the Israeli Gov inevitable?

US-China: Destined for a War Over Taiwan??
At the conclusion of China’s 20th Party Congress, President Xi Jinping started an unprecedented 3rd term with major check up at the top. 4 veteran members of the Politburo standing committee were dismissed: Li Keqiang, Li Zhanshu, Wang Yang, & Han Zheng are missing from the new list of the central committee.
One thing is sure: the centerpiece of this 20th congress was Xi’s speech that is very significant because he has now underlined some major shifts from China's recent past.

Was India Involved in the Assassination?
Ottawa & New Delhi, two key strategic partners on security and trade, are currently embroiled in a diplomatic tussle with potentially far-reaching implications.
It all began when Canada's PM Justin Trudeau, alleged that India was connected to the assassination of a Sikh independence advocate on its soil in June. Trudeau's statement stirred strong emotions within Canada's Sikh community, leading to widespread protests calling for justice.
But what lies beneath the surface of this diplomatic conflict? Some suggest that Canada may be doing the bidding of its powerful neighbor, the US. Could this be an attempt to punish India for its recent decision to reduce its reliance on the US dollar in international trade?
The repercussions of this tense situation are reverberating through the corridors of power. The question arises: is this the beginning of the end for the Ottawa-New Delhi relationship?
Some wonder whether India is discovering that it can no longer play both sides, caught between the interests of the West and the Global South.
These are indeed interesting times in the geopolitical world, where fragile alliances are being put to the test. As the tension escalates, it remains to be seen how Ottawa and New Delhi will navigate this intricate diplomatic landscape.

France Kicked Out, Permanently!
French President Emmanuel Macron faces a harsh reality as his country is unwelcome in Niger. Macron's decision to withdraw both the ambassador and soldiers from Niger marks a significant turning point. This comes in the wake of escalating tensions since the Nigerian military coup in July. Now, it's official that 1500 French soldiers will be exiting Niger over the coming months, with a complete withdrawal slated 'by the end of the year.' This development stems from Niger's junta revoking France's diplomatic privileges and immunity, along with the cancellation of all agreements with France. Macron's efforts to challenge this faced insurmountable obstacles. Is this the end of France's colonial era?

China Increasing its Footprints in the Middle East: Rebuilding Syria!
In this groundbreaking development, Chinese President Xi Jinping and Syrian President Bashar al-Assad convened in an unprecedented meeting held in the eastern Chinese city of Hangzhou on Sep/22.

China-Japan-South Korea Upcoming Summit: What's Behind this Surprising Diplomatic Shift??
In a surprising turn of events, China has recently announced its willingness to hold a summit with Japan and South Korea leaders. This unexpected move begs the question: what has prompted this significant change? Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman, Wang Wenbin, revealed that the three countries have reached an agreement to convene a meeting of their foreign ministers "in the next few months," with the intention of facilitating a gathering of leaders as soon as possible. Undoubtedly, this initiative is driven by the collective interests of the three parties involved.
This development comes on the heels of China's denouncement, in late August, of the statement released at the conclusion of the Camp David summit. The gathering, which brought together the leaders of the US, Japan, and South Korea, raised concerns about transforming the Asia-Pacific region into a geopolitical battleground. However, China's willingness to engage in dialogue with its neighboring nations demonstrates an intriguing diplomatic shift.

Iraq's Sudden Move: Banning US Dollar & Embracing De-Dollarization!!
In a sudden move, the Iraqi Government has recently announced the prohibition of US dollar usage, cash withdrawals, and transactions within the country. This decision, set to take effect from Jan/1/24, has been officially confirmed by a senior official at the Central Bank of Iraq. The primary motive behind this ban, as argued by the official, is Iraq's determination to combat financial crimes involving the country's hard currency reserves, as well as to evade US sanctions imposed on Iran.
While the government implies that this action aims to reduce dependence on the US dollar and promote the local currency, the reality goes far beyond these intentions. Iraq's strategic positioning in the de-dollarization trend is closely linked to the expansion of the BRICS alliance, which now includes three Middle Eastern countries, namely the UAE, Saudi Arabia, and Iran. Being oil-exporting nations, Iraq intends to align itself with this economic cycle of de-dollarization.
It is essential to note that Iraq had previously declared its decision to replace the US dollar with the Chinese Yuan, signaling its willingness to diversify its currency portfolio. This move further reflects Iraq's dedication to integrating into the growing de-dollarization movement.
Stay tuned to explore the implications, challenges, and potential outcomes of Iraq's sudden ban on the US dollar and its embrace of de-dollarization. Discover how this decision could reshape economic dynamics within the country and influence global financial landscapes. Don't miss out on understanding the deeper significance of Iraq's strategic actions on the international stage.

European Energy Crisis of its Own Making!!!!!
In this video, I delve into the profound impact of Russia's military operations in Ukraine on global Uranium prices, specifically focusing on Europe's energy crisis and the urgent need to find alternative sources. As tensions escalated, the Western world found itself grappling with an unanswered question - how would Russia's actions affect the availability of Uranium, a crucial component for civilian nuclear technology?
The consequences of this energy crisis have been particularly severe for Germany, the largest economy in Europe. With limited access to Russian energy, Germany is facing formidable challenges. One significant outcome has been the astronomical surge in inflation, pushing the entire nation, and indeed Europe, towards a detrimental recession.
Adding to the complexity of the situation, the EU heavily relies on Russia for nearly a fifth of its Uranium supplies. As a result, the EU is now confronted with mounting pressure to explore alternative sources to ensure not only its energy security, but also keeping the lights on. It is evident that Europe's energy independence extends far beyond oil & gas; it encompasses the need for a stable Uranium supply to sustain its nuclear power plants.
The emerging geopolitical and energy market reality dictates that Europe must urgently find reliable Uranium suppliers to safeguard its energy needs. A comprehensive search for alternatives has become imperative. Europe's economic and environmental stability relies on securing a long-term solution to address the energy crisis brought about by Russia's military operations in Ukraine.
Follow along as I delve deeper into the intricate dynamics of this issue, examining the far-reaching ramifications of Russia's actions, the potential consequences for global Uranium prices, and the critical steps Europe must take to secure its energy future. Stay tuned for a thought-provoking exploration of the impact of Russia's military operations in Ukraine on global Uranium prices and the pressing search for alternatives.

One key aspect that caught my attention was his firm declaration during his victory celebration speech, where he emphasized that he will not permit any foreign military to stay in the Maldives. This statement has particularly piqued India's interest, considering the underlying rivalry between New Delhi and Beijing.
I delve into the significance of this political move and the impact it could have on the regional powers in the area. By analyzing the dynamics between India and China, the objective is to understand the larger implications of this "virtual referendum" on the positioning and influence of these dominant players in the region.
Join me as I explore the political landscape in the Maldives and its connection to broader regional dynamics. Don't miss out on gaining insights into the potential consequences of this presidential election and its aftermath.

Israel Lost Control over the War!!
It has been reported by some estimates, according to Al-Jazeera, that if the war extends for few about 6-8 months, Israel could lose between $51B-$60b. Mind you that Israel survival depends entirely on the US. And while Israel's survival depends on the support of the US, international opinion is shifting. People around the world are becoming aware of the humanitarian and economic consequences of this unresolved conflict.
On the other hand, Palestinians are facing economic devastation as well. Their already fragile economy is being further shattered by the conflict. Jobs are lost, businesses are destroyed, and countless families are trapped in a cycle of poverty. It is time to realize that war is not the solution. It only perpetuates suffering and exacerbates the economic challenges faced by both Israelis and Palestinians.

US Veto Amounts to Supporting Genocide & War Crimes!!
In this video, I delve into the recent disappointing events at the United Nations Security Council. As mentioned during my interview in Washington DC, my prediction has unfortunately come true – the US has vetoed the resolution. This act reflects poorly on my country, as it fails to stand with what is morally right. It is disheartening to witness our nation knowingly supporting what is wrong, especially when most Americans believe this decision brings no benefit to us, but rather squanders our hard-earned tax dollars.
The resolution, which received the support of 13 out of the 15 Security Council members, aimed to address a critical global issue. However, the US, a permanent member with veto power, voted against it, casting a shadow over the council's ability to collectively tackle significant challenges. Even the United Kingdom, another permanent member, abstained, raising concerns about the unity and effectiveness of the council.
It is vital to reflect on the consequences of such actions and the message it sends to the world. As a concerned citizen, I strongly condemn this decision and express my disappointment in my country's stance. It is imperative that we hold our leaders accountable for their choices and remind them of the importance of standing up for what is right.
Let us not forget that true strength lies in doing what is morally just, even if it means standing alone. We must urge our country leaders to reconsider their position and align the country with the values we hold dear. Together, we can work towards a better and more equitable world, where justice and fairness prevail.
Please join me in expressing your thoughts and feelings about this issue in the comments section below. Together, we can raise awareness and bring attention to this critical matter.
Thank you for watching and for your support in advocating for a just and principled world.
