This is fraught, to employ that word again … it’s a major piece of work by Ruairidh, needing to be preserved … it’s very, very long, info intense and yet his delivery is flat and dense … about ten to twelve minute bursts seem the way to go.
Whilst it’s very well done, some have noted the strange pronunciation of some words. For example, I thought I heard him saying “malaise-iya” for “malaise” early on. I wonder if being Welsh has anything to do with it?
Going to take a break now for some time to try to throw off this unwellness. Back soon.
CONTEXT: British intelligence previously confirmed their participation in the successful Ukraine drone attack against long-range Russian bombers. That operation, highly controversial at the time, was previously confirmed by President Trump saying the U.S. was not informed in advance.
The “coalition of the willing” has also expanded. Outside the Ukraine regime, the current group making up the “coalition of the willing” includes: the U.K, France, Germany, Canada and Australia. It is worth noting the additions are all part of the British commonwealth (U.K, Canada, Australia).
Most observers note that Ukraine President Zelenskyy is not an independent actor in the warfare decisions as carried out from within Ukraine itself. In fact, British intelligence has now replaced U.S. intelligence for providing the majority of the satellite guidance systems, targeted systems and missile operations. German and French intelligence have been closely coordinating with the U.K. on behalf of European Union stakeholders.
How do you “blow up” the world’s entire corrupt financial system? The “City of London” is no longer the cabal capital of the world’s financial system. If you are following the SILVER price, it’s telling you that everything has changed. There are those who thought this could never happen. They are the same people, who are saying, “nothing is happening” and they also have no clue that everything has changed. And if you think that Wall Street, will forever remain the cabal “center” of the world’s stock markets, you are mistaken. A “new” market is opening in Texas and it will transform markets. Decentralization. Competition.
Two important safeguards, that are ALREADY being implemented. Shanghai is competing with London and New York, for one of the most “valuable” and “leveraged” commodities on the planet. SILVER. The massive “leveraged paper” SILVER positions are being obliterated. Derivatives. They are blowing up the entire system.
Remember this term: SYSTEMIC RISK. This is the WEAPON being used to bring down the entire corrupt system. “A significant portion of the derivatives market operates “outside of the public view.” Most derivatives are traded over-the-counter (OTC) as “private” deals between two parties, rather than on “public exchanges” like the New York Stock Exchange. These OTC contracts are “not publicly traded,” so no market price is available to validate their “theoretical valuation,” making it difficult to assess their true risk and exposure.
This “lack of transparency” is a major challenge, as the pricing of OTC derivatives depends heavily on the inputs used, and their results can vary significantly based on assumptions. While exchange-traded derivatives (ETD) offer transparency and real-time pricing, the OTC market remains dominant and “largely unregulated,” contributing to concerns about “systemic risk.”
This UNREGULATED, PRIVATE market in SILVER is based on THEORETICAL VALUATION. This GAME has been going on for a long time. A corrupt manipulation of the entire system. But then some huge things happened.
One after the other.
1) The leaders allied with Trump to destroy the system, began adding massive SILVER purchases, to go along with their massive GOLD purchases through their central banks. Russia, China, Saudi Arabia and India.
2) Trump placed SILVER as a “critical mineral.” That made SILVER a strategic industrial commodity. That prioritized domestic mining production and enabled stockpiling.
3) JPM began dumping ALL of their short positions and for the first time in their history, went fully long on SILVER. As the largest holder of “physical SILVER” in the world (750 million ounces), they are no longer putting a ceiling on the price of SILVER.
4) JPM and other traders started demanding “physical delivery” on the COMEX, instead of cash. SILVER starts flowing from London to New York.
5) Traders in Shanghai massively bought SILVER on Christmas Eve and Christmas. This completely decouples the physical price of SILVER from the manipulated paper price in the derivatives market. Immediate PANIC ensues. Big banks shorting SILVER are likely ALREADY broke. This massive derivative SILVER market, is the TOOL to bring down the entire centralized and corrupt system. SILVER is now on a trajectory towards real “price discovery,” as central banks compete with massive tech corporations to secure “physical SILVER” for the future.
That DEMAND from big money entities, is now driving the rush from “paper” into real physical SILVER. Who knows where it finally tops.

5. It started with some banter with the Venerable DAD
… who pointed out that soon he’ll be nonagenarian and that we wimpy youngsters don’t have the stamina they did. I gave some “banterish” retort but then started to think it through … then started exploring the second half of the 30s onwards culture, houses, work, dental care etc.
Yesterday I discussed it with someone the other side of my age and was surprised that he experienced some of what I did too … I thought it was far better in his day. From my day … no anaesthetic at dentist visits but an ether cloth over your nose if bad cutting was needed … polio … twin concrete tubs with wringer for washing, outside loo in the backyard, Merchurochrome, cod liver oil … we could go on in a Four Yorkshiremen way but I’m thinking it was maybe 30% of the privations DAD had.
Thinking about it … just past midway through the 30s, Depression time, then war, evacuation, rationing … we also had the tailend of that last one. Primitive heating. But comparatively, it was hell on earth for DAD compared to today and yet I bet he didn’t feel deprived … just went out to play after school until the blitz.
I looked at that key set of years 1955 to 59 and wondered really why so raucous just then? Why the West Side Story stuff? The James Dean, Gene Vincent, Eddie Cochrane posturing? The Peter Gunn? Why the seaside riots, e.g. Mods v Rockers? I did the Rocker bit when I was 11 … slicked back hair, greasy with Brylcreem … then realised I was way out of time by a decade. Went crewcut thereafter, well before the skinheads.
So yes, DAD was 70% right on that crack I’d say. As for men during the war, plus the Landgirls etc. … they were genuinely toof … and that time is almost upon us again … Starmer drones, the maniac, attacking Vlad’s home.
4. Interesting that they’d target this lot
Apart from the Blue Orders (the lowest three or “entry” levels), the Masons have been largely Illumined at the chessboard hooded ceremony levels for hundreds of years … the n1 enemy in those days were the Moose Limbs. Venezia comes into the equation too. But another enemy are the Catholic Knights, quite powerful.
So, who is behind this move on the Masons? The Moose Limbs?

2. Why such appallingly low quality people in power?
1. DAD at 1248
a) The Trump Administration is considering the possibility of sanctioning judges or security officials if measures were to be taken against its European protégés, such as the AfD in Germany, or the RN in France, according to revelations by the weekly magazine Der Spiegel….
b) As a reminder, the Metz City Council, on Monday, July 15, 2024, decided to grant a subsidy of half million Euros to the Great Mosque of Metz association to contribute to the financing of the building’s construction….
c) The events in Brussels at the end of this year confirm what many of us have been warning about for years: The EU is sleepwalking into a self-inflicted historical catastrophe that bears a closer resemblance to the collapse of the French monarchy than any other event in modern history….
d) Arcom, the French broadcasting regulator [= Ofcom in GB], has issued a formal notice to CNews, projected to be the leading news channel in 2025, for comments made on air regarding immigration and Islam during two segments that could incite discrimination, according to a decision published Tuesday in the Official Journal….
e) I leave you with Hélène’s viewpoint on BB. Brigitte Bardot was more than just a beauty: she was an allegory of France.
Things seem unchanged about OandP’s good lady, no message there … there was a message from Amfortas’s son. No detail but I’m gathering from it that he may be in a better place now. I’ll report when I can. IYE look after yourself. All of you too.
22. Ta, gentlemen, for the additional incoming
Just skimmed Novgorod and Silver, need to click through one of Steve’s. Almost crashing, night night.
… is through Zoomer thinkers finally getting Zoomer sheeple to see, using the available tech of the day.
Melissa Kristin is 37, born 1988, just a tad earlier tham mid Millennial. The acting in the clip is appalling, she’s trying to be evenhanded, calling Millennials “mouth running off” and Zoomers “silent” … the clip is about that. Actually, the Zoomer has zero time for the Millennial … the Kardashian, La La Land, Me Me Me Wokerati generation of Millennialism … and the obvious question is … who allowed Millennials to get like that?
Zoomers see a society collapsing around them … some are finally waking up.
The narration a few seconds in sounded like an upper primary or junior secondary lesson but became bearable, plus there was no music drowning it out, another positive. Not a bad topic, given that if we find ourselves soon enough in barracks or cells … how would we fare? I’m thinking we’re a tad soft these days, though body memory might return.
And once again, as is my wont, I’m coming back to generations. Given that one of our patron droppers here is coming up to the big nine oh next year, he is clearly from late Depression times, through the war and ration books, through to the supposed nirvana after that.
I’m from that nirvana but also saw the last of the austerity, then good times, yes, then the Gen X “lost-chn” gen after that. Also, in Russia, I was at the tail end of Soviet austerity, saw the “good times” roll in, the chn become obese.
It’s the same the whole world over. isn’t it a bleeding shame…….
a) French politicians were divided today over how to pay tribute to the late Brigitte Bardot, who despite her screen legend courted controversy and convictions in later life with her far-right views.
b) The left-wing Irish government has vowed to push for the European Union to prohibit the use of anonymous social media accounts….
c) Iranian traders and shopkeepers staged a second day of protests Monday after the country’s currency plummeted to a new record low against the US dollar.
d) At least 15 federal inmates in Canada have died by state-sanctioned suicide, classified as euthanasia, since 2018, according to newly released government records….
e) “Brussels doesn’t believe its policies have failed: it believes you are the problem”. “There is no genuine desire for public debate….
3. This one needs bringing to account, as with Fauci
2. Steve at 1247
JH: I have to keep asking with Steve as I think he misses the housekeeping posts. So, again, it would help immensely if a line did not open with a single talking mark as it skews the compose page and makes it impossible to copy and paste a whole line.
It’s partly a WP thing but also an ipad thing, plus Apple have these things sticking out, e.g. opaque arrows, which cover text. With double talking marks … ” … it does not happen. Single though gums things up.
