Weekly Dose of Doom and Gloom

Welcome Preppers and Survivalists,

Terrorism
Sean Naylor wrote a six-part series of articles for The Army Times about these United States efforts to combat terrorism in Africa, back in November and December 2011.

Needless to say, the title "Africa ops may be just starting" is the doom and gloom.

Financial and Military Conflict
Keeping with the trend of mentioning one to two month old articles, here's an article I found at The Drudge Report, from December 2011.

Be Warned:
The article blames "The Jew" for all the coming problems. Like we need help f*cking everything up.

Financial
OK, One more from December 2011.

A quote from Gonzalo Lira's article.


"... but here comes the really troubling part: It is an open secret that there are more paper-assets than there are actual assets. The markets are essentially playing musical chairs—and praying that the music never stops. Because if it ever does—that is, if there is ever a panic, where everyone decides that they want their actual asset instead of just a slip of paper—the system would crash.

And unlike with fiat currency, where a central bank can print all the liquidity it wants, you can’t print up gold bullion. You can’t print up a silo of grain. You can’t print up a tankerful of oil.

Now, question: When is there ever a panic? When is there ever a run on a financial system?

Answer: When enough participants no longer trust the system. It is the classic definition of a tipping point. It’s not that all of the participants lose faith in the system or institution. It’s not even when most of the participants lose faith: Rather, it’s when a mere some of the participants decide they no longer trust the system that a run is triggered"
