In this video, I take a different approach to my analysis. There’s no script and I speak conversationally to the listener. I talk about how and why I became so interested in the Ukraine war and what inspired me to start this geopolitics channel WHIPS. Partly, because I believe we are seeing the shift of a world order, which means possible chaos but also, opportunity to make wealth if you ride the right wave of what’s coming. I was never an avid follower of news or current affairs but due to my desire to get wealthy I had noticed how Russia and China were buying up large amounts of gold reserves leading up to the Ukraine war of 2022 and always felt that they were planning for something big- perhaps they knew the US dollar paper currency was seeing its last days. By the time Russia invaded Ukraine on February 2022, I wasn’t paying much attention until I turned on CNN one day and saw pictures of Ukrainian models and old civilians making molatov cocktails to fight the Russians. Everything looked so far-fetched and child-like and not to mention biased, in the mainstream media coverage. I immediately started to search for the “other side’s“ perspective. That’s when I came across the likes of Scott Ritter, Colonel MacGregor and others who told a totally different story and whose analysis was far more objective and credible. It was only when I realised how many people believed, my family included, that Ukraine was and could win against a nuclear power and military juggernaut like Russia that I concluded that we, in the West do not get news, we only get narratives and propaganda, especially when it relates to US foreign policy. From that point, I realised almost everything we have been told about Russia, Ukraine and the reason for this war is a certainly, not news.
