Prof. Michael Hudson, Paul Craig Roberts, and Reiner Fuellmich : The deindustrialization of Europe, the end of the petrodollar and the Stockholm syndrome of the Europeans.
The USA is bringing the entire industry from Europe to its territory.
Foreword
by Suavek
Paul Craig Roberts knows that there was neither a new virus nor the alleged "Covid" disease. It is a declining empire that is robbing and oppressing its European provinces in order to prolong the death throes of the US dollar. The pandemic was invented for this purpose, and the reduction of the population through the toxicity built into the mRNA bioweapons also seems to play a major role. In the best case scenario, the "vaccinated" people will become dependent on the US drug market and its patents. Cancer research followed closely on the heels of the carcinogenic pseudo-vaccinations. In this sense, everything remains as before. First a problem is created (or, as in the case of "Covid", invented ), then we are "saved". And later we will have to be saved from the toxic "rescue", which is also supposed to bring the pharmaceutical industry some money. Pharma has been working in this way or something similar for 100 years.
Until now, the power of the United States was based on printing the dollar at paper price and forcing the rest of the world to buy it. Using other currencies to trade oil and gas was prohibited. The world was therefore dependent on having to exchange goods produced with the sweat of labour for the green-coloured paper in order to buy oil. But now many countries are fighting back and want to put an end to this parasitic economy. Even under the threat of sanctions, they no longer want to sign restrictive contracts. They simply do not want to be robbed any longer.
Due to the high production costs, most of the US industry was outsourced to China. Only now, when the collapse of the dollar is foreseeable, will this become a real problem. On the one hand, the interest on the horrendous US debt had to be paid, and on the other hand, without large production there is too little income.
The only ways I know of for the USA to survive without the corresponding industry are to print the reserve currency or to wage war. Every war waged by NATO brings the US military complex income from arms sales. By and large, the money ends up with BlackStone.
Well, now industry is emigrating from Europe because the high energy prices make it impossible to produce any product at competitive prices. At the same time, the USA is adapting the relevant laws to welcome European companies. Waiting, which is often preferred as a solution to the problem, will not work this time. We need production facilities to live a normal life. However, we are forced to import as much as possible from the USA. Isn't this a perverse form of theft? We were previously attacked militarily because the destruction of Nord Stream 2 was an act of terror by a terrorist state and not a "friend". Economically, the pipeline was a kind of vital breathing system in Europe. From time to time, we had to remind ourselves that there is no friendship between states. What exists is only self-interest, which can sometimes represent a win-win situation. What kind of friendship can it be when a stronger friend robs the weaker one and forces him to commit suicide ?

Paul Craig Roberts: What Was Once Integrity Is Now Corruption
Paul Roberts was Deputy Treasury Secretary in the Reagan administration, where he co-founded the administration's economic policy program.
As a publicist, he was an associate editor and columnist of the Wall Street Journal, among other publications.
In his book The Failure of Laissez-Faire Capitalism and the Economic Erosion of the West (2012), he analyzed and criticized the neoliberal economic policies that he believed led to the 2008 financial crisis.
He also criticized the War on Terror, which had primarily curtailed civil liberties under the Constitution, as well as the War on Drugs and Israel's policies in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
In this episode of ICIC, Dr. Reiner Fuellmich and co-host Attorney Dagmar Schön talk to Paul Craig Roberts, an economist and publicist, economic advisor to former U.S. President Ronald Reagan and then U.S. Assistant Secretary of the Treasury for Economic Policy, about the current disastrous situation of global financial and economic policy with its devastating, destructive effects worldwide. He explains how and why this state of affairs could come about and who benefits from it and is responsible for what he sees as the deliberate planning and promotion of the demise of entire economies.
Roberts recounts his experiences, and which presidents of the U.S. sought policies for the people, rather than destructive and self-interested ones, and why they had no chance of tangible success with them, except for Reagan, who ended stagflation in America and the Cold War. He explains how monetary systems work and details the historical background culminating in an insatiable greed for profit by the U.S. to strengthen its supremacy, as well as the power of the petrodollar as the most powerful means of payment for global trade.
Looking at current world events, he explains why the U.S. failed to perceive the emergence of the powerful economic and trade community of the BRICS countries, which are now in the process of destroying the supremacy of the petrodollar. In his opinion, the arrogance of the United States has put the country into a hopeless situation from which it can no longer get out of very easily using its fiat money system, and simply printing money out of thin air.
At the same time, however, this means that the USA and its European puppet states must resort to ever more vicious crimes against humanity in order to secure their existence. Paul Craig Roberts is convinced that any means will do, since they do not even shrink from assassinations of popularly elected presidents at home and abroad, from electoral fraud, from terrorist attacks such as the 9/11, assassinations, creating a pandemic, or provoking Russia. Roberts warns that people must comprehend these things and realise that they are literally fighting for their lives right now.

Andere Interviews von der Webseite vom Reiner Fuellmich in Deutsch :
Paul Roberts war stellvertretender Finanzminister der Regierung Reagan und dort Mitbegründer des wirtschaftspolitischen Programms der Regierung.
Als Publizist war er u. a. Mitherausgeber und Kolumnist des Wall Street Journal.
Er analysierte und kritisierte die neoliberale Wirtschaftspolitik, die seiner Auffassung nach zur Finanzkrise 2008 führte, in seinem Buch „The Failure of Laissez Faire Capitalism and the Economic Erosion of the West“ (2012).
Er kritisierte auch den „Krieg gegen den Terror“, durch den vor allem die verfassungsmäßigen Bürgerrechte eingeschränkt worden waren, sowie den „Krieg gegen die Drogen“ und die Politik Israels im israelisch-palästinensischen Konflikt.
In dieser Folge von ICIC sprechen Dr. Reiner Füllmich und Co-Moderatorin Rechtsanwältin Dagmar Schön mit Paul Craig Roberts, Ökonom und Publizist, Wirtschaftsberater des ehemaligen amerikanischen Präsidenten Ronald Reagan und damaliger stellvertretender Finanzminister der USA für Wirtschaftspolitik, über die aktuelle katastrophale Situation der globalen Finanz- und Wirtschaftspolitik mit ihren verheerenden, zerstörerischen Auswirkungen weltweit und insbesondere für Europa. Er erläutert, wie und warum es zu diesem Zustand kommen konnte und wer davon profitiert und verantwortlich für die – seiner Ansicht nach gezielte – Planung und Förderung des Niedergangs ganzer Volkswirtschaften ist.
Roberts berichtet über seine Erfahrungen, welche Präsidenten der USA eine Politik für die Bevölkerung anstrebten anstatt eine zerstörerische und auf den Eigennutz ausgerichtete, und warum sie damit keine Chance auf handfesten Erfolg hatten, bis auf Reagan, der die Stagflation in Amerika und den Kalten Krieg beendete. Er erklärt, wie Geldsysteme funktionieren, und führt die historischen Hintergründe auf, die in einer perfiden Profitgier der USA gipfeln, um ihre Vormachtstellung sowie die Kraft des Petrodollars zu stärken und ihn als mächtigstes Zahlungsmittel für den weltweiten Handel zu festigen.
Mit Blick auf das aktuelle Weltgeschehen erläutert er, warum die USA die Entstehung der kraftvollen Wirtschafts- und Handelsgemeinschaft der BRICS-Staaten nicht wahrgenommen haben, die nun dabei sind, die Vormachtstellung des installierten Petrodollars zu zerstören. Die Arroganz und Kriegslüsternheit der USA haben seiner Ansicht nach das Land in eine ausweglose Situation gebracht, aus der es nicht mehr ohne Weiteres und nur mithilfe des Fiat-Geldsystems, das immerfort Geld aus dem Nichts druckt, herauskommen kann.
Dies bedeutet gleichzeitig aber auch, dass die USA und ihre europäischen Marionettenstaaten zu immer bösartigeren Verbrechen gegen die Menschheit greifen müssen, um ihre Existenz noch halbwegs zu sichern. Dass ihnen dazu jedes Mittel recht ist, davon ist Paul Craig Roberts überzeugt, da sie nicht einmal vor Attentaten auf vom Volk gewählte Präsidenten im In- und Ausland, vor Wahlfälschung, vor terroristischen Anschlägen wie dem 9/11-Attentat und der Corona-Plandemie oder vor einer Provokation Russlands zurückschrecken, die einen Dritten Weltkrieg zur Folge haben könnte. Roberts mahnt, dass die Menschen endlich hinsehen, sich wehren und begreifen müssen, dass sie gerade um ihr Leben kämpfen.

NATO as a money laundering machine :
RFK Jr. Exposes NATO as a Money Laundering Scheme for BlackRock
Here’s something the TV isn’t telling you.
Rober tKennedy Jr. reports that whenever a nation joins NATO, it has to conform its weapon purchases to NATO standards.
This is described as the “trap market” because conforming to NATO standards means buying your weapons Northrop Grumman, Raytheon, General Dynamics, Lockheed Martin, and Boeing.
And when you look into who owns all of those military contractors, “All of those companies are owned by BlackRock.”
Here is the source for these claims :

Germany as Collateral Damage in America’s New Cold War
By Michael Friday ( - a pseudonym of Prof. Michael Hudson ) March 29, 2024
As published in Berliner Zeitung.
The dismantling of German industry since 2022 is collateral damage in America’s geopolitical war to isolate China, Russia and allied countries whose rising prosperity and self-sufficiency is viewed as an unacceptable challenge to U.S. hegemony. To prepare for what promises to be a long and costly fight, U.S. strategists made a pre-emptive move in 2022 to turn Europe away from its trade and investment relations with Russia. In effect, they asked Germany to commit industrial suicide and become a U.S. dependency. That made Germany the first and most immediate target in America’s New Cold War.

Agricultural Imperialism in the EU
By Michael Tuesday, May 28, 2024
A new monthly column for German newspaper Berliner Wochenende. Ever since World War II, U.S. trade strategists have based their international policy on control of two key commodities: oil and grain. Economically, they have been the mainstay of the U.S. balance of payments, the leading categories of export surplus (along with weapons), especially as the U.S. economy has deindustrialized. And politically, these are basic needs of every economy. U.S. diplomacy has sought to make other countries dependent on American grain. In the 1950s, most notably, U.S. opposition to Mao’s Communist revolution in China sought to impose a grain embargo on that country. But Canada broke the sanctions – creating good will for decades. U.S. trade strategists have sought to promote grain dependency on U.S. farmers by opposing foreign attempts to achieve grain ...

America has Just Destroyed a Great Empire
By Michael Hudson, June 29, 2023
Herodotus (History, Book 1.53) tells the story of Croesus, king of Lydia c. 585-546 BC in what is now Western Turkey and the Ionian shore of the Mediterranean. Croesus conquered Ephesus, Miletus and neighboring Greek-speaking realms, obtaining tribute and booty that made him one of the richest rulers of his time. But these victories and wealth led to arrogance and hubris. Croesus turned his eyes eastward, ambitious to conquer Persia, ruled by Cyrus the Great.
Having endowed the region’s cosmopolitan Temple of Delphi with substantial silver and gold, Croesus asked its Oracle whether he would be successful in the conquest that he had planned. The Pythia priestess answered: “If you go to war against Persia, you will destroy a great empire.”
