1. Introduction and Key Topics
In this episode of "Bannon`s War Room," host Stephen K. Bannon delves into two major topics: the unexpected surge in gold investments amid economic uncertainties and a startling reveal about the CIA and Britain's clandestine involvement in the Ukraine conflict. The discussion features insights from international editor Ben Harnwell, war veteran Taj Gill, and financial expert Philip Patrick.
2. Unveiling the Hidden Operations in Ukraine
Steve Bannon opens the episode with a strong stance against perceived government and media deception regarding the Ukraine war. He emphasizes the public's growing frustration with what he terms "MAGAMEDIA" and hints at forthcoming revelations that challenge the mainstream narrative.
Steve Bannon [00:03]: "This is the primal scream of a dying regime. Pray for our enemies because we're going medieval on these people."
Ben Harnwell corroborates Bannon's concerns, highlighting a recent New York Times exposé that reveals extensive US and British military involvement in Ukraine. He underscores that this revelation comes too late to alter the war's trajectory.
Ben Harnwell [03:39]: "Steve, not only must everybody have known about this, everyone who needed to know about this would have been aware of what was going on."
Taj Gill, a seasoned war fighter, adds depth to the discussion by detailing the scale of American and British operations in Ukraine. He draws parallels to previous conflicts in Afghanistan and Iraq, suggesting that Ukraine is being used as a modern-day proxy battleground.
Taj Gill [12:21]: "And we also saw these Ukrainian operatives on the ground in Syria... We're actually using their intelligence service as a proxy intelligence service to conduct sabotage and other operations around the world."
3. The Mechanics of the Proxy War
The conversation delves into the methods and motivations behind the US and Britain's involvement. Ben Harnwell points out the deliberate use of euphemistic language in military operations to obscure the true nature of engagements.
Ben Harnwell [31:11]: "The locations of Russian forces would be inverted commas, points of interest... they were instructed not to wear military uniform for that and presumably all their other operations there."
Steve Bannon expresses outrage over the human cost of the war, comparing it to historical genocides and emphasizing the role of American military and intelligence in escalating the conflict.
Steve Bannon [31:16]: "The Ukrainians shot the bullets, but the Americans ran the war. The Americans targeted. This was our war."
Taj Gill echoes these sentiments, emphasizing the emotional and moral toll on both Russian and Ukrainian populations.
Taj Gill [23:09]: "It's gonna be very tough for the Russians to forgive and forget what America did on this... killing all these people."
4. The Economic Underpinnings: Investors Flock to Gold
Shifting focus, the episode transitions to the economic implications of ongoing geopolitical tensions. Philip Patrick discusses the unprecedented surge in gold investments, attributing it to fears over impending tariffs and economic instability.
Philip Patrick [38:01]: "Gold prices smashed a new record yet again on Monday. Spot markets now over $3,100 for the first time in history."
He explains that both central banks and retail investors are diversifying their portfolios to include gold as a hedge against declining dollar values and market volatility.
Philip Patrick [44:07]: "Ultimately, a lack of options makes gold more and more attractive. Projections are rising, you know, every single day. They're now saying $4,500 in the next two years."
Steve Bannon relates this trend to historical financial strategies, drawing parallels to the "Greenspan put" and highlighting the absence of similar bailouts under the Trump administration.
Steve Bannon [44:07]: "What you've just made this fundamental point is that it's not simply central banks anymore, it's also investment funds... there's no Trump put like there was a Greenspan put."
5. Financial Strategies and Investment Advice
Philip Patrick elaborates on how investors can navigate the current financial landscape by investing in physical gold through platforms like Birch Gold. He emphasizes the importance of informed decision-making and offers guidance on integrating gold into personal investment strategies.
Philip Patrick [45:37]: "At Birch, it starts with information... they can reach out, they'll have access to precious metal specialists... it's why Birch Gold specializes in helping you convert an existing IRA or 401k into a tax-sheltered IRA and physical gold."
Steve Bannon reinforces the importance of taking control of one's financial future amidst economic uncertainties and encourages listeners to explore gold investment as a viable option.
6. Concluding Remarks
As the episode wraps up, Steve Bannon reiterates the severity of the ongoing Ukraine conflict and the entrenched interests that perpetuate it. He underscores the necessity of dismantling the deep-state apparatus that sustains these "forever wars."
Steve Bannon [36:38]: "This thing is sick. Also, Taj, where I'll let you go... We have not gotten rid of all these people. This is why Ukraine, Ukraine, Ukraine up on Capitol Hill. The money is being made. This thing is sick."
He concludes by highlighting the significant achievements of the War Room team and previewing upcoming coverage of the Liberation Day events.
Steve Bannon [31:11]: "The host, Stephen K. Bannon. This is why Ukraine, Ukraine, Ukraine up on Capitol Hill."
