Ep. 19 | Free The Money | What This War Is REALLY About… Dr. Jim Willie In this episode, I’m joined by Dr. Jim Willie, who breaks down what he believes is really driving the war, not geopolitics, but a deeper financial battle. He argues the consequences will be felt through rising oil prices, inflation, and a breakdown in demand for U.S. Treasuries. According to Dr. Willie, institutions like the Exchange Stabilization Fund are quietly propping up the system, while global powers shift toward neutral assets like gold. He also points to the City of London and its alleged move toward Dubai as part of a larger restructuring of financial control. In his view, this war is ultimately about gold, power, and the future of the monetary system. Sign up for ITrustCapitol with this link for $100 funding bonus.
