As I have already mentioned, the threat of Global War has passed the DANGER ZONE. That was in 2020 through 2022. What we are experiencing now is a “lesser” state of war. Oh, sure, nuclear weapon threats are being bantered about, and provocations are seemingly everywhere at a global level, but the unseen global counter-threats are not being made public and they will quench any aggressive moves against the great Asian powers.
This period should last from 2022 into 2025. Which is this particular collection of writings.
Peak danger swings are still active, but how they will manifest is anyone’s guess. This period of “reconstruction with a high threat level” should exist from 2025 into 2028.
And I will start another collection for this period.
So we are going to discuss that reconstruction and what needs to occur.
