This is the Biggest Story. Everyone is Missing It.
While most news outlets are focused on Roaring Kitty, the jobs report, or Hunter Biden, the most consequential news item of the year may be unfolding before our very eyes in our hemisphere. The Russians are coming. But so, too, are the Chinese and Iranians. In fact, they’re already here.
We’re not talking about the border so the right isn’t covering it. We’re not talking about Trump, so the mainstream media isn’t covering it. We’re talking about the war coming to South America designed to distract the United States.
To understand the significance of this, we must first recognize the rapidly changing geopolitical landscape at the expense of a distracted and weakened United States. An emboldened Russia, China, and Iran have coordinated internally to bypass international sanctions, while externally, they have provoked conflict on a growing number of fronts.
Aside from the invasion of Ukraine, Russia has orchestrated at least eight coup attempts across northern Africa that most recently resulted in the US losing access to a strategic military base in Niger.
Not only did Iran assist in planning the October 7th massacre, but they also funded the Houthi rebels in Yemen along with Hezbollah in Lebanon who appears increasingly ready to open a formal war against Israel from the north.
Finally, China has consistently escalated tensions with nearly every country in Asia. From jailing the Tibetan monks for praying during COVID to imposing a military blockade on Taiwan to arbitrarily laying claim to Philipino water, President Xi has made it clear that no one is safe in Asia.
Combined, these actions have scrambled US resources to nearly every corner of the globe in the ultimate example of leading from behind.
All three countries are working together to secure additional resources from other blacklisted countries in exchange for vital resources. One of these countries is Venezuela. Nicholas Maduro has made it clear that Venezuela is prepared to invade neighboring Guyana under the guise of nationalism but, in reality, for oil.
American oil companies are actively exploring the oil-rich Essequibo region of Guyana. Venezuela is preparing to invade it. The Iranian Revolutionary Guard and Quds Forces are in Venezuela already, along with both Russian and Chinese military advisors. The Venezuelans have been using Iranian coast guard vessels to patrol the river border with Guyana.
Russia, China, and Iran are in Venezuela, helping them prepare an invasion of an American and British ally to seize American-backed oil fields. The only thing Joe Biden is doing is letting Venezuela sell oil to fund the invasion.
You need to understand this. Watch:
While it is good for Erick to make his readers aware of our competitors and rivals efforts to become more than just "influencers" in the propaganda wars, as a retired FSO (Foreign Service Officer aka a dplomat), I am fully confident that both our official (overt and covert) and NGO security analysts and planners are aware of what is happening in real time and continually adjusting to new situations. Just read some of Adm James Stavridis (USN rtd) writings including two recent novels co-authored w/ Elliot Ackerman) entitled 2034 and 2054, respectively. Both are two imagined scenarios of what could happen in those two years using Stavridis' immense knowledge and experience in international security affairs (his last command was NATO) and Ackerman's experience as a novelist.
Have every attendee on stage at The Gathering read this and tell us what their plan is to get in front of it and lead America to lead the world to be better.
