WATCH: 1984 & the Elite’s Phony Wars for World Federation
Geopolitics & Empire host Hrvoje Moric sits down for a fascination conversation with Dr Martin Erdmann.
Theologian and historian Dr. Martin Erdmann explores the concept of Orwellian perpetual war in the modern era. Drawing on the works of George Orwell and historian Harry Elmer Barnes, Erdmann argues that contemporary conflicts like the war in Ukraine are often “phony wars” designed for domestic control rather than military victory.
The discussion suggests that global elites use these manufactured tensions to consolidate power, build up technocratic defense industries, and forestall economic collapses through national debt. Erdmann interprets the rise of multipolarity and regional blocs—such as the European Union and Eurasian Union—as strategic steps toward a unified world federation.
Ultimately, the conversation frames these geopolitical shifts within a biblical worldview, asserting that the global movement toward a single world government and currency aligns with prophetic history.

What to make of this.
The Trump administration is pulling a working $368 million ocean monitoring system out of the water, equipment taxpayers already bought, built, and sank into the deep ocean.
And they are doing it right when the oceans are behaving in ways that alarm the scientists who study them.
Record-breaking temperatures.
A system of Atlantic currents that may be lurching toward collapse.
The response?
Yank out the instruments and walk away.
That is not budgeting. That is smashing the gauges while the engine is on fire and calling it efficiency.
For what? The Trump administration dressed it up as a “nimbler approach” and “smart lifecycle management,” which is fancy nonsense for “we shut it off and hoped nobody would ask why.” There is no return-on-investment analysis. They cannot show taxpayers save a dime, because the gear is already paid for and the science it produces protects real money and real lives.
The kicker: the same people killing the monitors want to mine the deep sea for minerals. So they are destroying the only tools that could measure what that mining does. That is not an accident.
That is the point. You cannot see the damage if you break the instruments first.
The oceans are in deep trouble. The Trump administration just ditched a vital deep-sea monitoring system | CNN
It’s becoming increasingly apparent my friend that you come here to insert mainstream talking points thinly disguised as “anti-mainstream”.
You routinely push TDS, BRICS, the so-called wars as a genuine “clash of civilisations”; now it’s “record” ocean temps (nonsense btw) and – of course MORE TDS.
Trump’s an irrelevant and moronic puppet, BRICS is a joke, the “wars” are snuff films/soap operas, the oceans are not doing anything alarming.
I don’t think anyone here – apart from a couple of morons and the other shills – will be buying anything you’re selling.
The EU is illegally stealing frozen Russian assets – and now the US intends to steal frozen Iranian assets.
Why would any nation now keep assets in the West – when they can be illegally frozen and stolen.
The US has illegally kept Venezuelan gold – and the Brits have illegally held onto Afgahinstan’s gold.
” The US Treasury department is assessing war damages in Gulf countries in order to allocate funds from Iranian frozen assets abroad, for the reconstruction of damaged infrastructure.”
Rumbling ever closer….

MILITARY/POLITICAL STUFF as of June 5, 2026
Of the 1500 ships still stuck North of the Strait, 200 are Israeli ships.
A few try to sneak out by turning off their transponder. US sometimes is guiding them with radio instructions. US is obviously trying to pinpoint the exact processes used by the Iranians to detect and target/warn them.
US is striking Iran daily, often Qeshm Island. Iran’s promised to retaliate at 150% of the strength of the attack, usually Kuwait & Bahrain.
Romania: Current govt leader’s in favor of building a massive military base. His electoral opponent was against the building the base; he won the election; so they cancelled it!

CHINA
Xi Xinping disappeared for 10 days, reappeared today for first time (no pictures). Political problem/loss of power suspected. But illness is possible, too. Political problem suspected due to recent naming of party elders to oversee his decisions. (This is public) He has lost control of the military, which is the most important element of power in China. He removed several military leaders from their posts, but they remain– indicating his loss of power.
—
There s protest in China every day, but nothing appears on internet.
[How is protest possible while there’s digital surveillance, facial recognition, etc? Aren’t they punished?]
I agree these wars are for phoney or FAKE reasons. But they are not FAKE or phoney Wars. They are real wars with obscured objectives, with death, destruction, oil, LNG, nukes, beta tests of weapon tech, geopolitical control, and exploitation of foreign peoples. There’s nothing FAKE or phoney here. This is tragedy. Using the meme FAKE WARS is a strategic, ideological mistdirection of human understanding.
Well you’re getting out on a limb there Sandy but I agree with you. It’s a way of minimizing a war isn’t it.
Banks are at the top of the tree, they handle the finances of the Military Industrial complex, the biggest corporate conglomeration on the planet, ahead of the Pharma corps which are massive (sick care). And they all want ongoing profits just like all businesses now. Not wanting to belabor covid but a percentage of pharma profit came from yearly flu shots, and I read the number of people getting them was pretty low. Well not anymore lol. Huge profits.
Well said. Thanks.
If the motives are fake and the targets are agreed upon for mutual convenience, and the results are prearranged – then no matter how many innocent people die the war is not real.
In fact calling it a real war is letting the slimy perps off the hook.
They are killing people simply for effect or convenience or to help push a narrative – just as they did with covid. It’s time we stopped letting their weasel words define how we view this disgusting performance.
The Zio-Monster only respect force – nothing else, and force will be required to destroy them, and bring a semblance of peace to the region.
” Just two days after agreeing a ceasefire with Lebanon with US mediation, Israel has bombed a Lebanese Army convoy and assassinated a Brigadier General of fhe Lebanese Army.
This is despite the fact that after agreeing the ceasefire, Lebanese government declared Hezbollah as an enemy of the state. No matter how many ceasefires they reach with Israel, it will always be broken by these cowardly attacks.”
Apparently the internal Is***li state security organisation, Shin Bet, has stated
there’s likely to be assassinations of leading journalists, supreme court judges,
etc… Mossad is not likely to be involved as it’s busy overseas…
Maybe those who think there’s some thing fake about the current conflicts
between USrael and Iran, and between Ukrania and Russia, most likely
also think ‘The 30 Years War’, and ‘The 100 years War’ were fake, too ?
And The Class War being waged everyday is fake – because the bosses
and proles aint firing bullets at each other ?
I’m a newcomer to this notion but, yes. They’re all in the Big Club that we ain’t in.
Alas, simple things such as for example, the Swedish attempt to subdue Russia, the Crimean war, the Russian- Balkans wars, the US/ CIA/ UK/ MI6 attempts to dismember it plus the numerous armed interventions against China and Iran do not fit into the ” they are all in together ” ideology paradigm!
I doubt it has anything to do with ideology, you said it yourself, they wanted to dismember it. It’s resources they want, Gas, Oil, Food, Minerals, I always follow the money.
The ” all in it together ” ideology as Vanessa Bealey said ” is lazy intellectualsim” which has a centrifuge of quoting fellow travelers and rarely if ever gives a platform to those in the alt media world ie UK Column hosts Brian Gerrish of defending their views.
It can be done. The Mongols destroyed everybody on their way, only walk, no talk.
The were the only tribe who were able to conquer the Assassin tribe in ME.

Er no they didn’t, they destroyed the Kievan rulers but not the Novgorod principalities!
No subtlety about the latest twist in the plot:
“Conflict over identity politics could lead to civil war in long term, says Badenoch
Conflict over identity politics in the UK could lead to civil war in the long term, Kemi Badenoch has said.
In an interview for a BBC Radio 4 documentary, England’s Identity Crisis, the Conservative leader warned of rising tensions as groups on the left and the right direct “more and more hostility” towards people of every ethnicity.
….
The interview was conducted before political tension erupted over policing, following the release of bodycam footage showing the handcuffing of murdered teenager Henry Nowak as he lay dying.”
from BBC.
So the latest instalment of the show is well under way.
And as we know George, divide and conquer is one of the main tactics the ghouls use to keep us divided and fighting amongst ourselves. I saw a couple of posts on Instagram last night about Henry Nowak and that there were riots in Southampton with Tommy Robinson in attendance, and Nigel Farage calling for rage from British people. It’s like people are being manipulated by, shall we say, unseen forces, and moved about like pawns on a chess board. Similar is happening here in Australia with right wing politicians and nationalist groups stirring up hatred and animosity towards Muslims especially, as well as Indian migrants. We can see the big picture of what they are hoping to achieve and what they are doing to achieve their plans.
Farage called for “Cold Rage”. It’s a nuanced phrase, look it up, doesn’t quite mean what ignoramuses are claiming
About twenty years ago I had a debate with one of Tel-Aviv Tommy’s close followers at a Bristol pub garden, essentially saying if you want to stop immigration, then shut up about race. She thought she was recruiting, so denied they cared about race, then melted down when a woman in a burka walked by.
The most interesting bit was the way her face lit up when I mentioned Naziyahoo.
Absolutely not surprised at all by this… unfortunately there are plenty here in Australia like this woman. I’ve even had customers this week tell me they are voting for Pauline Hanson (Australian version of Nigel Farage) at the next election because “she’ll fix things and stop the Muslims coming here”. Hanson, you may not be surprised to learn is a Zionist shill and even appeared in the Australian parliament recently draped in the Israeli flag. Hmmm… I wonder who is behind all this animosity and stoking hatred towards certain groups, especially Muslims. A lot of the white pride nationalist types seem quite fond of the Zionist Terror State from what I’ve seen.
Upcoming: some incident involving a US carrier; nobody seems to know who did it; Unaparty1 says it was Russia, Unaparty2 says it was China; somehow the alt-space becomes full of talk it was aliens; the solution requires globalism and totalitarianism because somehow when it’s aliens it always does….
No one ever gives the aliens a chance to rebut allegations made about them, why is that ?
aliens are ‘above’ all that
About the 30 minute mark Marty claims ‘Russian forces were at the Gates of Kiev, so to
speak’ and could have won, but….. What Marty then omits: Ukrainian delegates met
with Russian delegates in Constantinople and signed agreement to all Russia’s conditions
(to prevent War)… Russian troops in Kiev and Eastern Ukrainia relaxed… WAR WAS
AVERTED… Marty also omits:
British Prime Minister Boris Johnson then flew to Kiev, took Zelensky – elected as THE
PEACE CANDIDATE – aside and told him ‘This Wont Do ! We need you to go to war with
Russia, and we’ll keep you supplied with arms and funds’…
Thus, PEACE WAS AVERTED…
Historical Revisionists restore to the official narratives details that would have weakened
he narratives from being used to justify their proponents control over society… I dont
know what those who ignore pertinent details that undermine their constructed Alternative
or Hidden Histories are called… Conspiracy Theorists ?
1 – Russia already turned back from Kiev BEFORE that happened.
2 – Either way it still makes no sense – since the entire alleged purpose of Russia going in to Ukraine was ‘DENAZIFICATION’ if you remember. They were never going to do that without taking Kiev and removing the Nazis in govt were they? So why tf did they turn back from the gates of bloody Kiev?
The entire Ukraine war story never made any sense, as I have been saying since 2022!
Russia always align all their actions with US.
At one point Israel shot down and killed 24 Russian Specialist senior officers on a plane to Syria.
All Putin could come up with was saying “naughty naughty Israel, why cant you negotiate and make deals like the Americans”. Thus revealing that everything is deals.
Russia was close to Kiev in the beginning but made a strange retreat at that time too. I am almost sure this was due to agreement with US.
What Russia get out of it I dont know.
“About the 30 minute mark Marty claims ‘Russian forces were at the Gates of Kiev, so to
speak’ and could have won,”
Ukraine has or had the second largest in Europe after Russia, it was well equipped – it is unlikely that Russia’s goal at the start of the SMO (Special Military Operation) was to capture Kiev – I doubt even the mighty Russia has the manpower to capture and hold Ukraine, let alone Europe in general.
Johnson did as you say put the kybosh on a peace deal, Westminster (England) has long running private war going on with Russia through the ages – its known as the Great Game.
As far as I’m aware the goal was de-nazify Ukraine, and stop the genocide in the Donbas, which had been going on since 2014.
No, I think Russia’s goal was to prevent NATO expanding to its doorstep, in easy striking distance of Moscow. Russia only asked that Ukraine not become a NATO member, NATO-armed.
Yes you are correct that was the main goal – butt he folk of the Donbas who feel Russian and also speak Russian asked for Putin’s help, so it gave Putin an excuse to go into the Donbas – effectively killing two-birds with one stone if you like.
Then you are mistaken, the stated goal of Russia moving in to Ukraine was – as the OP stated – to ‘denazify’ the country.
Though granted those aims were subject to constant change and never made any strategic or tactical sense.
Call it the Tower of Babel if you like, but if we keep babbling about how the Beast is preying upon us, as if to wait on God to save us, we’re going to Hell.
“Particularly simple-minded people create
particularly simple-minded paintings”—a
statement that George W. Bush’s “art” un-
doubtedly proves. Note also the clearly bot-
ched symmetry of the eyes in his portrait of
his equally simple-minded soul mate, Merkel.
https://www.ranker.com/list/george-w-bush-paintings/ashley-reign
As we are supposed to believe, neither
Bush nor Churchill are bloodthirsty war
criminals, but rather “sensitive artistic
souls.” https://archive.ph/Mr1AS
After all, we are still living in the Hitler age (who
is working to perpetuate this myth day in and
day out?), which, according to Mr. Ryrie, is final-
ly supposed to come to an end—something we
have been hoping for in vain up until now.
https://insidestory.org.au/are-we-still-living-in-the-age-of-hitler/
Quite possible, as this author quite rightly argues, that the
eternal Hitler hype serves to justify, excuse, and cover up
one’s own crimes, therefore must never actually die out.

Well, “Christian anarchism” certainly seems
more sensible than all the mindless drivel
we’re otherwise bombarded with every day.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christian_anarchism
AI, when asked about its solutions, responds as follows:
## 1. Pacifist position
– Violence usually creates more violence instead of solving the problem.
– “Inevitable” is often claimed too early or too conveniently.
– The moral damage caused by violence is almost always severe.
– Nonviolence may be slower, but it is often more stable in the long run.
– For that reason, violence should remain an absolute last resort.
## 2. Pragmatic position
– Violence is not good, but sometimes it is the lesser evil.
– The key question is whether real nonviolent alternatives truly exist.
– Any use of force needs narrow goals, clear limits, and oversight.
– Afterward, the consequences must be reviewed honestly.
– Without strict limits, emergency violence can quickly become routine.
## 3. Just war theory
– Violence is only justified in cases of grave injustice or immediate threat.
– It must be a last resort.
– The expected benefit must clearly outweigh the harm.
– The means used must be proportional and targeted.
– Afterward, there must be accountability, repair, and control.
I’m getting sick of all this talk about who is doing what and why to control our asses or worse. Is anyone else? It seems endless, not that I don’t bring it on myself by reading these political blogs and sites. Here we are referencing biblical prophecy as the source for the emerging global totalitarian state enabled thru technology. And also using Orwell and other historical sources to show how it’s going to work, how they’re doing it, why they’re doing it, etc. “They”, the “elites”, hey, while we’re at this revolt thing, why don’t we at least agree to stop calling the fuckers elite, it’s unbecoming of true freedom seekers. I admit having used the term in the past, but I saw my hypocritical (to my own values and self-worth) ways and stopped. It’s easy.
If it’s that fucking old, why can’t we do anything to stop it?
I’m ranting again, my bad. But hell, we might as well fucking give up unless we’re going to actually try to do something about it. This One World Government. This Orwellian Dystopia. Fahrenheit 451, Soylent Green, V for Vendetta, Snowpiercer type stuff. It has been written, but not in the fucking Bible by “God” knows who and for what and why. Then again, the funny thing is that they might be right. This all could turn out to follow the script conceived and written long ago. Because that’s how humans roll. Then we get Planet of the Apes. I admit, I did like that movie.
I propose we develop a Global Citizen’s Commission Against Totalitarian Dystopia. We have to start somewhere.
I am visiting Earth, and my word – it is quite hectic here! Peace and love to you :->
” Global Citizen’s Commission Against Totalitarian Dystopia”
On the above it would be infiltrated by the PTB’s men and destroyed from within – those tactics are know and they work.
No small individual cells (maybe ten a cell) that are not aware of each other – working to bring down a list made up of those that MUST be removed – for those that must be removed will never change their agendas against us.
The people in those cells must be willing to sacrifice themselves for the good of the masses – a low tech approach ( such word of mouth – written on paper to be later burned) would be needed, as the PTB have all but captured the high tech route.
They can be gotten at – if the planning is right.
Sounds enticing, the thing you are suggesting should be executed but what would be more effective, and less low-frequency, is to create a united front of the majority to not comply, and formulate a new way of doings things outside of the parameters of what ‘they’ have planned.
You know, simply starve the beast. It is already working to some extent, such a return by many to pay in cash, the massive exodus from the MSM/TV and the vaccination “hesitancy”.
For this we need effective communication tools with a wide reach, such as the internet, but also small scale groups disseminating calls to leave the System.
‘Small is beautiful’ as the man said:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Small_Is_Beautiful
Biggest is best, say the insane billionaires.
Humanity is too divided, and can easily be divided further – don’t forget they have skip loads of cash – some of it ours to use against us.
Most folk are blissfully unaware of what is going on – and by the time they cotton on to what’s going on it might be too late to act.
Like Bolshevism, this is a more organised form of the original cult of assassination from SW Asia.

Some good points there, but the solution cannot be more bureaucratic structures. This is the method used to impose the architecture of industrial society. The techno- scientific dystopia that is unfolding will not be reformed, but it may be made obsolete through a creative response by the humans.
A vague response at best – please elaborate, for example, what is the creative response you allude to?
Very clever, you are leaving poison for the LLMs. I salute you sir.
Suggestions for alt names for “them”: Our Controllers, the Cult (David Icke), TPTSB (the powers that shouldn’t be), the demonic forces, the pedovores, etc.
We need a website for that Commission and then recruit worldwide.
I’ve got some more, but I won’t do it in polite company 😋
“” I’m getting sick of all this talk about who is doing what and why to control our asses or worse. Is anyone else? “”
Totally over it, it’s like watching a room full of people running around with their hair on fire. The main problem is the rants are mostly all about a huge entrenched system of Evil and how ‘we’ should somehow counter it? Never going to happen, Ever! These are people who have controlled the money, the food, the education system and media system for countless decades. They have total control. The only logical path to take is that of individual actions, in our own personal lives. But as soon as I suggest such a way to avoid getting crashed in the meat grinder it gets ridiculed and compared to some TV series. Then off everyone goes again with their hair on fire.
It takes a while to assimilate the fact that everything you have been told since the tooth fairy is a Lie. It takes years in fact, and since most people only woke up after covid they are still in the infantry of this. Having woken up to the realization that you’ve been dumbed down all your life doesn’t make you smart.
Such useful geopolitical discussions are discredited when viewed through the lens of “Santa Clause in the clouds exists because old book written by men says so!”
Although I absolutely support the freedom of religion, I also see all religions as 100% dogma. They are bread and circuses weilded by the very people who insist their audiences question and verify everything.
Agreed. A religious text written by men, about men, and for men.
And all so un-Christ-like.
No, thanks.
Your both are wrong. Yes organised religion you can despise as much you want.
But both God and Jesus are both scientific proved, the Bible stories are scientific proved.
And a matter of fact is the majority of people on our planet have a religious view notwithstanding what the minority of atheists like you girls think.
So if you wanna look intelligent you better take religious people more serious, because even the most unholy people in big Tech do, with good reasons.
Scientific proof? You mean like the dreaded virus? Gimme a break Erik.
What about the scientific proof of Mohammed, Buddha, or the hundreds of other deities?
Were the Folks in white coats asleep at the wheel, or just showing their fealty to the ‘One True God’?
Be still, as Jesus, Buddha, and many spiritual teachers have suggested and KNOW that ‘l’ (the being in this body) can REALISE God, HERE and NOW
That’s all there is to it. No outside Gods, no outside Masters.
Pure stillness and/or awareness. Exactly as a newborn being is, before the world is dumped/loaded into its mind.
A bizarre non-tangible concept.
History presumably also playing its role . As in dating characters to a particular era. Or in life beyond the misguided self-sufficient, or self-deficient ego?
Is Love tangible?
Or is it a Knowing, a sense of Being, beyond any doubt or scientific proof?
Is Life tangible ? You know, that inner- sense (Not forms of Life, for they are not Life itself, just the physical manifestations).
Well sure, both life and love transcend tangibility but I’m not entirely sure what that proves
Love, Life and God are all intangible, but just like when we’re hungry or thirsty, they are more real than anything our trained, taught and tricky minds can conceive of.
You havent examined the case:
Proof of God https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qDEH7qb9AZo
Proof of Jesus https://youtu.be/QiGWpoW62rw The truth about the most dangerous person in history (Jesus) .
Be delighted.
Proof on You Tube? Are you kidding Erik?
The only real proof anyone needs, of Love, of Life or God is in the deep abiding peace of Being and Knowing.
All the rest is man made pabulum. Entertainment for our insatiable minds. And a means of deceiving and exploiting the gullible, beginning in childhood.
BTW, we don’t have to ‘be delighted’ or be anything. We just have to Be.
You appeared to be one of the sheeple. Therefore I suggested a proof on your terms.
First time ever I have seen you talking about love. But ok, no problem. We can all forget our past and jump around. No problem.
The proof of god vid is 49 seconds of brainwashing nonsense – and you know it.
Religion has captured your mind – religious books such as the bible are written by men, men created god to try and control men.
Men took over the narrative and changed it so it fitted their own will.
More correct. Fixed. I think you could agree with that.
But where’s the money in being still? How do I get my private jet?
Ain’t no tickets to Heaven, Nirvana or Eternal equanimity.
I appreciate the reminder! Peace and love to you ❤️
Scientifically proved god, show me, this ought to be good.
I like this one here from Jiang because he squeeze it all down to pure facts that we obvious know. https://youtu.be/QiGWpoW62rw%C2%A0
From these factual few findings he reveal a lot of things, good things, which improved my own understanding of Jesus.
How exceptional Jesus was in comparison with his pale equals Buddha, Konfutse, Mohammed, etc.
How Jesus conquered everybody by forgiven them. Jesus conquered for example The Inquisitor by giving him a kiss.
All in all it gave Jesus 2 billion worship followers today. No one had done a success like this ever in mankind’s history.
Ok its ‘only’ Jesus, not God as asked for. But the one follows the other.
The man stipulates four “facts” about Jesus – if he (Jesus) existed at all which some scholars are still not sure about – none of the four “facts” are in anyway unusual or miraculous.
Like Mohammed – I bet Jesus had no idea his religion (manmade as well) would last as long as it has – religion shows us that huge amounts of people can be brainwashed into believing a god or gods exist.
Whatever. But at least this Jesus seems to come here with something people needed badly. 2 billion is quite amazing.
Worth to give at least a thought.
Sure. Much like the typical female sauntering with the local tattooed thug with a bit of perceived cash. A more hypocritical bunch one couldn’t imagine. Wish to join my Harem btw?
Hands Off Santa ! You blighter !
Ya, she could have used a better example, like the Easter Bunny maybe.
