Americans trapped in Kabul told to fill out an online evacuation form as Taliban take over Post Date: 2021-08-16 18:17:33 by Horse

The State Department on Sunday told Americans in Kabul that their best chance of survival is to hide. "The security situation in Kabul is changing quickly including at the airport. There are reports of the airport taking fire; therefore we are instructing U.S. citizens to shelter in place," the U.S. Embassy in Afghanistan said in a statement published on its website on Sunday. The embassy then told everyone that even as the Taliban took over Kabul, it is vital to have the proper paperwork in order. Poster Comment:I think the Russians and the Chinese will tell the Taliban to hold the Americans and Europeans hostage to ransom demands for reparations for 20 years of unjustified ...

Update(4:52ET): Biden Afghanistan speech post-mortem... In what was widely being described as the most important and anticipated speech so far of his presidency, given the magnitude of horrific images the world beheld coming out of Kabul on Monday, Biden's words can be summed up with the main theme of shouldering off the blame to the Afghan people, Trump, and prior administrations (though conveniently not Obama of course). He took no questions even as the press corps erupted in urgent questions, walked away and the video feed was abruptly cut. Filled with smoke and mirror talk of "graveyard of empires" (as if Biden has been reborn as a noninterventionist Libertarian or ...

Afghanistan Shenanigans Post Date: 2021-08-16 10:36:13 by Ada

Things have been moving very rapidly as Taliban forces immediately closed in on Kabul after the end of the occupation. The US is frantically evacuating people, former Afghan officials are fleeing the country, and a transition to Taliban control is a done deal. Its long been obvious to anyone paying attention that the Taliban would regain control of the country when occupying western powers withdrew, but I dont think anyone wouldve put money on it happening this quickly. A few interesting questions have come up about this, like for example how hilarious would it be if after spending twenty years and trillions of dollars and thousands of human lives fighting the ...
Fake Afghan President Fled with Huge Sacks of Cash Post Date: 2021-08-16 10:22:16 by Ada

Where did the cash come from, I wonder? Hint: it wasnt from the Afghani taxpayer. RT: The Western-backed former Afghan leader, Ashraf Ghani, departed his country with so much money that it couldnt all fit on his helicopter, and he was forced to leave some cash at the airport, the Russian Embassy in Kabul has said. Speaking to RIA Novosti, its spokesman Nikita Ishchenko dubbed Ghanis escape an eloquent characterization of the fall of the regime. Four cars were stuffed with money. [They] tried to fit all the money on the helicopter, but not all of it fit. Some of the money was left lying on the tarmac, he explained, without ...
China Notes That Transfer of Power in Afghanistan Was Smoother Than in United States Post Date: 2021-08-16 10:00:31 by Ada

Chinese people are noting that the transfer of power in Afghanistan was smoother than the transfer of power in the United States. This is just a stone cold fact of reality. Whereas there was an election hoax in the United States, and many big problems surrounding it, the Taliban just peacefully rolled into Kabul, and the President of the Afghan Government peacefully fled to his home nation of Tajikistan.

Escobar: Empire Warns Brazil - It's Our NATO Way Or Huawei Post Date: 2021-08-16 02:40:01 by Horse

Authored by Pepe Escobar and Quantum Bird for The Saker Blog, The Empire of Chaos could never be accused of deploying Sun Tzu subtlety. Especially when it comes to dealing with the satrapies. In the case of Brazil, former BRICS stalwart reduced to the status of a proto-neo-colony under an aspiring Soprano-style captain, the Men Who Run the Show applied standard procedure. First they sent the Deep State, as in CIAs William Burns. Then they sent National Security, as in advisor Jake Sullivan. Both visits delivered the same message: toe the line or else. Nuances do apply. The Deep State wants the current proto-neo-colony status of Brazil unchanged, and hopefully ...
These Are The Best-Selling Vehicles In The World By Country Post Date: 2021-08-16 02:16:47 by Horse

Each country has different preferences for goods, and vehicles are no different. Consumers in a dense country might prefer smaller cars, while countries with wide expanses (and parking spots) open the way for larger trucks. Likewise, rugged terrain might call for vehicles that can adapt and scale quickly. And, as Visual Capitalists' Omri Wallach notes, its also a question of which manufacturer invested in the country. As the worlds largest automakers have raced to attract consumers in every corner of the globe, they built factories, renamed models, and even built specific cars to fit the tastes of individual countries.

Rickards: Is A Global Liquidity Crisis Underway? Post Date: 2021-08-16 02:06:15 by Horse

Authored by James Rickards via DailyReckoning.com, Ive been analyzing currency wars for years. In fact, Ive written a book called Currency Wars, so I have some expertise in the subject. A new front in the currency wars is emerging, but it has not yet erupted into blatant currency manipulation. That will probably come in early 2022. First, well likely pass through a major market disruption that will force the dollar significantly higher against other major currencies. When that disruption becomes acute and the strong dollar becomes painful for U.S. exports and export-related jobs, the U.S. Treasury will take steps to weaken the dollar. Lets unpack that forecast a ...
