Always enjoy reading Tom's articles on ZH. Very interesting Theory of Everything, but I'm not sure if I agree with all of the points.

The impression I get is that the NY banksters/Fed are simply looking out for themselves. Nothing more. The Fed isn't intentionally trying to destroy the EU. They're just protecting their own a$$et$. If the EU collapses, oh well, too bad. Just business. Nothing personal.

The nomination of Powell doesn't seem to fit, so I don't think Davos has splintered. And I also don't see the US military acting as Davos' enforcer with regards to Russia and China. Sino/Russo-phobia is always good for the MIC. It's simply mutual interests coinciding.

Not sure about the Europeans trying to take back their colonies. Isn't the Five-Eyes Anglo-American syndicate already in place? I think the Davos Euro-oligarchs are a separate faction from Five Eyes, but there is some overlap with the British Fabian-Malthusians.

Anyway, I see the power structure a little differently. I could be wrong, of course. I'm trying to sort things out like the rest of you.

Mark,

Tom Luongo here... I just wanted to pop in and say, "Hi!" and thanks. The whole "Davos" meme is one that is now fracturing into pieces. People see opportunities and will use them to their advantage.

There is zero incentive for the NY Boys to go along with Schwab to perpetuate a vestigial Euro-centric colonial model run through the 18 LIBOR banks.

If anything, sovereigntist power brokers see the opportunity to shore up their own personal bailiwicks and survive this period of history.

Thanks again for transcribing my insanity into English.

Thanks, Tom. This is a whole new world I'm trying to wrap my head around and you've provided some of the best resources--making sense of what had seemed totally opaque before.

You and me both, Mark. I'm working on a post to pay it forward. Because, that's how I roll.

Keep up the great work. The search is point. "The Point of the Journey is not to arrive." - Neil Peart.

Interesting...Makes me wonder:

If its Jamie Dimon v. Klaus Schwab, why does Wall Street finance the Dem Party?

Did Davos really drop the covid bomb? Exactly how did they pull that one off?

If Donald Trump were made of sterner stuff? I can see what Luongo means but even Trump had no idea what he was walking into. There really was nobody 'sterner' than DJT in 2016. We'll see if there is such a person in 2024...

If it's Jamie Dimon versus Klaus Schwab, then where's mutually assured destruction when you really need it?

Dimon v. Schwab was just me giving a for instance--I regard Schwab as mostly a frontman. Re Davos, in a part that I didn't transcribe Luongo explains that "Davos" is a catchall term he came up with to signify the Globalist oligarchy on both sides of the Atlantic. I presume that embraces much of what we would call the Deep State or Interagency, but with decision making coming often from outside "official" governmental channels.

Fantastic piece, sir. Kudos. More like this, please!

Yes, I thought that this offered a comprehensive view, whether one disagrees or nuances some of the details. Perhaps later today.

I have sent the link to this post to a dozen friends and family. It really sums up the last few decades logically and succinctly.

Would Trump have been re-elected if no Covid?

No - the only difference would have been even more cheating.

Thanks very much, Mark, for transcribing this. I saw the interview before and thought it provided the best overview of Luongo's economic world view I have read. I do believe what he says ("trust but verify") and that makes me look at things like the Inflation Reduction Act in an entirely different light. Not only are these massive spending bills inflationary in themselves (will contribute to greater inflation rather than reduce it) but they are ultimately an intentional attack on the financial system of the U.S. We are indeed at war economically, we stand to be the casualties of that war, and it is a war meant to be kept hidden from us. How would we ever know about it without Luongo?

Davos did it, in Wuhan, with the Virus.

Can someone point me to a useful synopsis of Syria?

Go to Gold Goats n' Guns - Tom Luongo has a whole segment devoted to it.

US was backing color revolutions in the Middle East.

Syria hosted jihadis to attack Iraq.

Obama withdrew from Iraq after the country was in pretty good shape.

The Shia majority politicized and corrupted the military after the US left, and went after the Sunni minority. The US presence has been preventing this.

Al Queda / Isis took advantage of this and took large segments of Iraq and Syria. While the US was backing anti Assad (supposedly pro freedom) forces in Syria.

US went back into Iraq and with Shia Iranian backed militias pushed Al Queda out of Iraq.

Syria the US armed the rebels. Arms coming from Libya, through Turkey. Turkey controlled who got them, favoring Islamist groups. The US policy was Assad must go. Assad was backed by his clan, Shia, that is a minority.

The US with highly restrictive rules if engagement attacked Isis / Al Queda in Syria.

Russian Forces with Iranian backed Shia Mercenaries in the ground pushed back the rebel forces.

Trump came into office loosened the rules of engagement And pushed Isis back.

Turkey had gotten a lot of refugees, and decided to push back the Kurds, that had taken a lot if land around the Turkey border. At one time the Kurds got USSR support against NATO ally Turkey.

Trump tried to get US forces out of Syria, but was lied too.

A huge mess.

The whole Syria thing passed me by I'm ashamed to say. I have it on my list of geopolitical disasters to look at but currently still trying to work on the current bunch of 'things' .

Thanks for this - I'll save the summary :)

Fascinating article but who exactly are the "Globalist Elite"?

Expand full comment

For the obvious ones, search & take a look at the names of the World Economic Forum's (WEF) busiest movers & shakers. Klaus Schwab, George Soros, Christine LaGarde (ECB Chair), Macron & Trudeau to name a few. Won't be at all surprised if there are a layer or two above the obvious globalist cheerleaders who really pull the strings w/names nobody wd recognize.

A solution looking for a problem. I like that and very true!

I think you are being too charitable to the left. The left is and always has been about control - control of your health, control of your wealth, control of your property, control of your associations, control of your mobility, control of your money. The important thing about CBDC is the CB part. This is why they hate Bitcoin. Once they can track and control your savings and outlays they control everything in your life. So the left knows exactly where the CBDC path will lead and they support it for just these reasons - they have common cause to control you.

And that is why Davos will fail. For the same reason Hitler and the commies failed. No-one knows what's round the next river bend. There is always an X Factor or something out of the left field that screws up their plans. Mark has already mentioned at least two: Brexit and Trump. The Covid and clot shot scam seems to be backfiring too. And what happens when we Euroweenies realise that our support for "climate change" and Ukraine means our families freeze and starve this winter? Martin Armstrong, who is one of most accurate predictors around, says the next few years are going to involve a lot of social and civil strife and turmoil. Let's hope the new X Factors screw Davos forever.

Yeah, I think he's right--this is about power. You can't discount the personal element. Jamie Dimon kissing Klaus' a**? Or Lagarde's?

It's rather like those people who say that Putin and Xi are Klaus's poodles and just pretending to be attacking Davos. Forget Dimon - does anyone seriously believe that Xi and Vlad are going to strut their struff and then hand it all over to a bunch of WEF college boy?
