The Palestinian Question w/Adam Fitzgerald and Ahmed AIRwasek. We’ll talk about everything in regards to Palestine, Israel, their history together and the current events.

Serving as emperor of Rome from 161AD to 189AD, Marcus Aurelius was considered the last of the five ‘good emperors’, and oversaw a time of relative peace and prosperity at home while stabilizing the empire’s frontiers abroad. Noted for his modesty and dedication to stoic philosophy, Aurelius’ writings serve as a guidepost for many seeking wisdom on life, rule, and what we leave behind. Tonight we are joined by Zach from Logos Revealed to examine Aurelius’ most famous work, ‘Meditations’, and to explore its lessons for leadership in a corrupt modern world. -- Brought to you by -- Zach from Logos Revealed Odysee Channel LogosRevealed - https://odysee.com/@LogosRevealed:0 Twitter/X - @LogosRevealedI -- General Lance https://link.space/@LancesLegion Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCAioE7UWN_tV6gVFcqQZqPw Lance’s new book: Caesar Bellator - https://www.amazon.com/dp/1957583193 DVX Publishing - https://www.dvxpublishingcompany.com/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/LancesLegion with Adam Smith and Hans Lander -- References -- - Republic, Plato (375 BC) - Meditations, Aurelius (180) Coriolanus, Shakespeare (1605) - Gladiator, Scott (2000)

The world has never lacked for a troubling incident or cause for concern. But there are times when the drumbeats reach a crescendo, and in the case of war, the potential for large scale conflict seems to rise when a hegemon begins declining, and rival powers see their opportunity to increase their share. Ray Dalio, having made his success running the world’s largest global macro hedge fund and authoring several books on the major forces shaping world history, recently raised his estimate on the chance of World War III occurring in the next two years from 35% to 50%. Given how high the stakes are in that outcome, those are not the most encouraging odds. Tonight, we are joined by returning guest Lance to discuss the recent conflicts in the Middle and Near East, as well as the potential for such in the Far East and the general escalation amongst the nuclear armed superpowers. -- Brought to you by -- Very special guest General Lance https://link.space/@LancesLegion Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCAioE7UWN_tV6gVFcqQZqPw DVX Publishing - https://www.dvxpublishingcompany.com/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/LancesLegion with Adam Smith and Hans Lander New: Hard Copies of Exit Strategy now Available! http://www.lulu.com/shop/adam-smith/exit-strategy/paperback/product-24191334.html - http://myth20c.com ~~-- Donations --~~ Ethereum: 0x4d3617C1C5b466E2BE1aD1F7D85C03DBBa6F6bb7 BTC: 16UQ6ukmTjz4Z7Ce4n23bN6tKGnU7XkPeQ - https://myth20c.wordpress.com/books/ - http://theamericansun.com - http://twitter.com/myth20c - myth20c@tutanota.com - http://gab.ai/myth20c -- References -- - Dr. Strangelove, Kubrick (1964) - Black Swan, Taleb (2007) - Can the Navy Defend Its Aircraft Carriers From Death by Submarine?, Hollings (2022) - https://nationalinterest.org/blog/reboot/can-navy-defend-its-aircraft-carriers-death-submarine-199177 - WAR ROOM - THE MODERN PELOPONNESIAN WARS feat.

In small societies, such as hunter-gatherers, warrior tribes, or rural farmers, honor and reputation form a large part of one’s personal stock and trade. In larger civilizations, however, where power is measured in money and influence, honor becomes an inconvenience to accumulating wealth for the unscrupulous. The last honorable man - in a society of scoundrels - is at a distinct disadvantage. Today in America, or should we say the broader Western World, find ourselves at a point where the rewards for controlling others, and the punishments for those that resist that control, are straining the remnants of a once honorable tradition of truth, justice, and a spirit of independence. Tonight we are joined by James LaFond, author and anthropologist on the rise and fall of many such civilizations throughout history. — Brought to you by — Very special guest James LaFond - https://lockhartandlafond.substack.com/, http://jameslafond.blogspot.com/ James LaFond on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/tabooyou Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/jameslafond Lynn Lockhart & The Crackpot Podcast - BitChute - https://www.bitchute.com/channel/crackpotpodcast/ - YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UChfybQ3WBKBnCksVkoSmPYg Hobo History: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCUGFNmpkv3J54k28WgJUNIw New: Pulp Fiction Renaissance - https://pulpfictionrenaissance.com/ - https://www.jameslafond.com/article.php?id=12834 - ‘How Many Books Are You Writing?’ - https://www.jameslafond.com/article.php?id=7427&t=258 Books by James LaFond - https://jameslafond.blogspot.com/p/bookstore.html, https://www.bookdepository.com/search?searchTerm=james+lafond&search=Find+book Special Title Image Credit: @Akhilleus_Ilias with Hans Lander, Nick Mason and Adam Smith New: Hard Copies of Exit Strategy now Available! http://www.lulu.com/shop/adam-smith/exit-strategy/paperback/product-24191334.html -- References -- - Illiad, Homer (800 BC) - Odyssey, Homer (750 BC) - Beowulf, Unknown (750) - 1984, Orwell (1949) - The Naked Prey, Wilde (1965) - The Shadow of the Torturer, Wolfe (1980) - Ivory Tower - White Slavery, Myth of the 20th Century (2018) - https://myth20c.wordpress.com/2018/07/04/ivory-tower-white-slavery/ - The Progressive Era - Roots of American Bureaucracy, Myth of the 20th Century (2018) - https://myth20c.wordpress.com/2018/09/05/the-progressive-era-roots-of-american-bureaucracy/ - Barbarism vs. Civilization - James LaFond, Myth of the 20th Century (2020) - https://myth20c.wordpress.com/2020/04/29/barbarism-vs-civilization-james-lafond/ - Federal Protection of “Oath Keepers” Kingpin Stewart Rhodes Breaks The Entire Capitol “Insurrection” Lie Wide Open, Revolver (2021) - https://www.revolver.news/2021/06/stewart-rhodes-oath-keepers-missing-link-fbi-unindicted-co-conspirator/ - Masks for waiters and servants - but not for AOC and the rest, Smith (2021) - https://nypost.com/2021/09/15/masks-for-waiters-and-servants-but-not-for-aoc-and-the-rest/ - Tourists in Spain must wear masks inside until spring 2022, Coffey (2021) - https://www.msn.com/en-gb/lifestyle/travel/tourists-in-spain-must-wear-masks-inside-until-spring-2022/ar-AAPq5VQ - Three Black Women Beat Asian Restaurant Hostess.

The history of the Trojan War, assiduously studied and thoroughly documented today, was passed down through the centuries not by academic text, but by oral tradition. The conduit for communication, rather than scholarly prose, was the campfire poetry best told in the Iliad by Homer, author of the other great Greek epic The Odyssey. How much of the details of the story were true, such as the role of the Gods, versus artistic embellishment are of less import, but rather how the stories and myths of such great events - incorporating the essentials of love, lust, power and corruption - proved equally a reflection as much as an influence on the foundations of culture in the ancient Greek world and by extension the greater West. -- Brought to you by -- Hans Lander, Hank Oslo, Nick Mason and Adam Smith New: Hard Copies of Exit Strategy now Available! http://www.lulu.com/shop/adam-smith/exit-strategy/paperback/product-24191334.html - .. ~~-- Donations: https://www.patreon.com/MYTH20 --~~ BTC: 16UQ6ukmTjz4Z7Ce4n23bN6tKGnU7XkPeQ - https://myth20c.wordpress.com/books/ - http://theamericansun.com - http://twitter.com/myth20c - myth20c@tutanota.com - http://gab.ai/myth20c -- References -- - Iliad, Homer (800 BC) - The Greek Myths, Graves (1955) - Gates of Fire, Pressfield (1998) - Troy, Petersen (2004) - Alexander, Stone (2004) - 300, Snyder (2006) - The War Nerd Iliad, Dolan (2017)

Landlocked and at the ancient crossroads of the Mongol, Persian, Alexandrian and British empires, Afghanistan has long held a history as a conduit for other peoples. In more recent history, the Soviet occupation from 1979 to 1989 was only succeeded very briefly by a local Taliban coalition to then be knocked out by the United States in 2001. With the American military finally leaving its 20 year occupation behind, the Afghani peoples of various Pushtun and other assorted tribes once again look to an uncertain future - with the firm knowledge that whoever tries to conquer them next will likely reaffirm the Afghanistan sobriquet of the ‘Graveyard of Empires’. -- Brought to you by -- Very special guest Old Hickory with Adam Smith and Hank Oslo New: Hard Copies of Exit Strategy now Available! http://www.lulu.com/shop/adam-smith/exit-strategy/paperback/product-24191334.html - .. ~~-- Donations: https://www.patreon.com/MYTH20 --~~ BTC: 16UQ6ukmTjz4Z7Ce4n23bN6tKGnU7XkPeQ - https://myth20c.wordpress.com/books/ - http://theamericansun.com - http://twitter.com/myth20c - myth20c@tutanota.com - http://gab.ai/myth20c -- References -- - Rare Earth: Afghanistan Sits on $1 Trillion in Minerals, Live Science (2014) - https://www.nbcnews.com/science/science-news/rare-earth-afghanistan-sits-1-trillion-minerals-n196861 - Quarrelsome start to US-China summit in Alaska, Malaysia Now (2021) - https://www.malaysianow.com/out-there-now/2021/03/19/quarrelsome-start-to-us-china-summit-in-alaska/ - The Bill for the Afghanistan War Is $2.26 Trillion, and Still Rising, Losey (2021) - https://www.military.com/daily-news/2021/04/16/bill-afghanistan-war-226-trillion-and-still-rising.html - A Generation of Afghan Professionals Flees Ahead of Taliban Advance, Trofimov (2021) - https://www.wsj.com/articles/a-generation-of-afghan-youth-afghanistan-american-troops-pullout-taliban-biden-11625667435 - Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan - https://alemarahenglish.net/

In 1945 near the end of WWII, US President Franklin Roosevelt, on his way back from the Yalta summit, met on the cruiser USS Quincy in the Suez Canal with Kign Ibn Saud of Saudi Arabia. The meeting, prompted by Roosevelt asking how the United States had outlasted the mighty German war machine, was motivated by the fact that American oil resources fueled the enormous military buildout that went on to eclipse not only the production of Germany but also the output of all other Axis countries combined. Thinking ahead to declining American reserves, Roosevelt correctly saw and successful negotiated an alliance between the US and the kingdom that until recently has undergirded not only the industrial world’s need for energy but also America’s need for further legitimization of the US dollar in an era of large budget and trade deficits which came in the form of the ‘petrodollar.’ Growing from a population of fewer than 5 million in 1960 to over 33 million today, the home to Mecca, the birthplace of Mohammed and Islam and the center of the broader Muslim world, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has had mixed success in transitioning from its ancient heritage to the fabulous wealth provided by oil. It’s state oil giant - Saudi Aramco - is the world’s third largest company as measured by market capitalization, at $2 trillion, but looking ahead, with increased calls for a move away from fossil fuels and the rise of China, the kingdom looks to invest in the future while retaining its past, and hopes to maintain its central role, for good or for worse, in Middle Eastern culture and politics. -- Brought to you by -- Very special guest General Lance Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCAioE7UWN_tV6gVFcqQZqPw DVX Publishing - https://www.dvxpublishingcompany.com/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/LancesLegion with Adam Smith New: Hard Copies of Exit Strategy now Available! http://www.lulu.com/shop/adam-smith/exit-strategy/paperback/product-24191334.html - http://myth20c.com ~~-- Donations --~~ Ethereum: 0x4d3617C1C5b466E2BE1aD1F7D85C03DBBa6F6bb7 BTC: 16UQ6ukmTjz4Z7Ce4n23bN6tKGnU7XkPeQ - https://myth20c.wordpress.com/books/ - http://theamericansun.com - http://twitter.com/myth20c - myth20c@tutanota.com - http://gab.ai/myth20c -- References -- - Seven Pillars of Wisdom, Lawrence (1926) - Why Arabs Lose Wars, Atkine (1999) - https://www.meforum.org/441/why-arabs-lose-wars - Desert Kingdom - How Oil and Water Forged Modern Saudi Arabia, Jones (2010) - Syria: Descent Into the Abyss, Fisk (2015) - Petrodollar - American Political Economics, Myth of the 20th Century (2017) - https://myth20c.wordpress.com/2017/03/14/petrodollar-american-political-economics/ - How FDR Charmed a Saudi King and Won U.S. Access to Oil, Kennedy (2018) - https://www.history.com/news/fdr-saudi-arabia-king-oil - Mohammed bin Salman: The dark side of Saudi Arabia’s crown prince, Aljazeera (2020) - https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2020/3/9/mohammed-bin-salman-the-dark-side-of-saudi-arabias-crown-prince - Apocalypse Never: Why Environmental Alarmism Hurts Us All, Shellenberger (2020) - Cadillac Desert - The American West and Its Disappearing Water, Myth of the 20th Century (2022) - https://myth20c.wordpress.com/2022/08/30/cadillac-desert-the-american-west-and-its-disappearing-water/ - Petrodollar Dusk, Petroyuan Dawn: What Investors Need To Know, Holmes (2023) - https://www.forbes.com/sites/greatspeculations/2023/03/27/petrodollar-dusk-petroyuan-dawn-what-investors-need-to-know/?sh=35388fa355aa - Aramco’s Oil Production Costs Least in the World at $2.8 Per Barrel - https://english.aawsat.com/home/article/1993111/aramco%E2%80%99s-oil-production-costs-least-world-28-barrel comparison: https://knoema.com/rqaebad/cost-of-producing-a-barrel-of-crude-oil-by-country - IMF: Saudi Arabia Needs Oil Prices At $80.90 To Balance Budget - https://oilprice.com/Energy/Energy-General/IMF-Saudi-Arabia-Needs-Oil-Prices-At-8090-To-Balance-Budget.html - Fossil Fuels, Our World in Data - https://ourworldindata.org/fossil-fuels - Decouple Media - Learn About Energy and Climate - https://www.decouplemedia.org/

The world is a complex place, filled with good and evil - and almost everything in between. The challenge of navigating this is that we are all tempted by something that we want, but ultimately will be our undoing. Christians frame this battle between God and Satan, with humans caught in the struggle to choose. What makes this even more difficult is it is not simply a matter of choice, but also of action. To avoid sin, we must resist its lure, but most, if not all, can without help. This is where faith provides solace, and in the final judgement, salvation.

The largest country in Latin America - in terms of population, land mass, and economy - is a crown worn indisputably by Brazil. But the history of this land, spanning four timezones and over five centuries of development, is one marked by tumultuous governance and political conflict, with different crowns worn by monarchs, military dictators, and democratic politicians alike, ruling over a teeming population of millions of former slaves, colonists and wannabe conquistadors. Tonight, we are joined by Lance from Lance’s Legion to help us work out the nuances of this complex and fascinating country, as well as impart some of the potential lessons of managing a large and complex demography with high rates of poverty and crime. -- Brought to you by -- Very special guest General Lance https://link.space/@LancesLegion Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCAioE7UWN_tV6gVFcqQZqPw DVX Publishing - https://www.dvxpublishingcompany.com/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/LancesLegion with Adam Smith New: Hard Copies of Exit Strategy now Available! http://www.lulu.com/shop/adam-smith/exit-strategy/paperback/product-24191334.html - http://myth20c.com ~~-- Donations --~~ Ethereum: 0x4d3617C1C5b466E2BE1aD1F7D85C03DBBa6F6bb7 BTC: 16UQ6ukmTjz4Z7Ce4n23bN6tKGnU7XkPeQ - https://myth20c.wordpress.com/books/ - http://theamericansun.com - http://twitter.com/myth20c - myth20c@tutanota.com - http://gab.ai/myth20c -- References -- - Starship Troopers, Heinlein (1959) - Platoon, Stone (1986) - Full Metal Jacket, Kubrick (1987) - Extreme Ownership, Willink (2015) - Dichotomy of Leadership, Willink (2018) - Coluna Miguel Costa-Prestes - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coluna_Prestes - The Itaipu Hydroelectric Dam Project, Brazil - https://www.power-technology.com/projects/itaipu-hydroelectric/?cf-view - History of the Empire of Brazil - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_the_Empire_of_Brazil\ - Maps of Brazil - https://www.worldatlas.com/maps/brazil - Brazil Real GDP per Capita, from 1900 - https://www.researchgate.net/figure/Brazil-Real-GDP-per-capita-since-1900_fig3_346923358 - War of the Triple Alliance - https://www.britannica.com/event/War-of-the-Triple-Alliance - A Global Map of Culture Types - http://honorshame.com/global-map-of-culture-types/ - Violence in Brazil - https://www.wilsoncenter.org/blog-post/brazils-violence-map-shows-alarming-trends

The world has rarely seen a time where two powers dominate the entire globe - almost utterly and completely - like in the latter half of the 20th Century with the United States and the Soviet Union, as our guest Thomas777 tonight points out. After the end of the Cold War in 1991, it also became easy to feel like the era of major global conflict was over, and forget just how deadly and potentially catastrophic with nuclear weapons the preceding eras had become. During the post World War II era, with the Axis powers having been thoroughly defeated, the (former) allies, replete with their battle tested armies and massive armaments and industrial bases, aligned against each other into capitalist and communist blocs. With the stakes never before this high, and the entire world hoping to avoid another cataclysmic 100 million dead, the United States began funding think tanks to come up with ways to do this - most notably at the RAND Corporation. During their early years, and up until the height of the Cold War, RAND attracted thousands of famous and highly influential intellects from the fields of physics, mathematics, statistics, economics and more, many of who went on to win Nobel prizes, focusing on war strategy, production planning, and predictive modeling of adversaries using theoretical and computerized simulations. But as the Vietnam War demonstrated the limits of these approaches in entrenched nationalist struggles, and as general sentiment for military research soured, the organization today is a shadow of its former self, and stands amidst a crowded field of beltway adjacent think tanks, going through the white paper motions without demonstrating anything of true note - perhaps like much of the rest of the broader US military establishment. -- Brought to you by -- - Books: https://www.imperiumpress.org/product-page/steelstorm, https://imperiumpress.org/shop/steelstorm-ii/ - Thomas and Pete at the Movies - https://freemanbeyondthewall.com/movies/ - Thomas TV - https://www.youtube.com/@7homas7V - Telegram - https://t.me/s/WOODPILEDISPATCH - Substack - https://realthomas777.substack.com/ - Gumroad - https://7homas777.gumroad.com/ - Twitter - https://x.com/REAL_7homas777 - Thomas' CashApp - $7homas777 with Adam Smith and Hans Lander New: Hard Copies of Exit Strategy now Available! http://www.lulu.com/shop/adam-smith/exit-strategy/paperback/product-24191334.html - http://myth20c.com ~~-- Donations --~~ Ethereum: 0x4d3617C1C5b466E2BE1aD1F7D85C03DBBa6F6bb7 BTC: 16UQ6ukmTjz4Z7Ce4n23bN6tKGnU7XkPeQ - https://myth20c.wordpress.com/books/ - http://theamericansun.com - http://twitter.com/myth20c - myth20c@tutanota.com - http://gab.ai/myth20c -- References -- - On War, Clausewitz (1832) - Cybernetics, Wiener (1948) - On Thermonuclear War, Kahn (1960) - The Pentagon Papers, New York Times (1971) - https://www.nytimes.com/spotlight/the-pentagon-papers - The Terror Network, Sterling (1981) - Inside the Soviet Army, Suvarov (1982) - WarGames, Badham (1983) - Beautiful Mind, Howard (2001) - Soldiers of Reason, Abella (2008) - The Fog of War, Morris (2008) - TMBS Doc - Private Gov - The Rand Corp Meritocracy, Bessner (2020) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yu13l7JMhe4 - Zeihan - After Dark - the Collapse of Globalization, Myth of the 20th Century (2022) - https://myth20c.wordpress.com/2022/10/31/zeihan-after-dark-the-collapse-of-globalization/ - Episode 889: The 'Cold War' Pt. 16 - The Q&A Finale - w/ Thomas777 (2023) - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/episode-889-the-cold-war-pt-16-the-q-a-finale-w-thomas777/id1263295815?i=1000611518316 - Episode 1079: Trump is Targeted w/ Thomas777 and Dark Enlightenment, The Pete Quiñones Show (2024) - https://www.spreaker.com/episode/episode-1079-trump-is-targeted-w-thomas777-and-dark-enlightenment--60686297 - Proud Prophet - Reagan's Nuclear War Briefing Declassified - https://nsarchive.gwu.edu/briefing-book/nuclear-vault/2016-12-22/reagans-nuclear-war-briefing-declassified - Pournelle’s Iron Law of Bureaucracy - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jerry_Pournelle#Pournelle's_laws - Arrow’s impossibility theorem - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arrow%27s_impossibility_theorem - Nash Equilibrium - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nash_equilibrium - Shoe-banging incident - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shoe-banging_incident - Simplex algorithm - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simplex_algorithm
