Is Israel's War Being Done to Push Down Bond Yields?

As Always I Pray for Peace

I am about to turn in for the night over here but I did catch the breaking news chatter regarding Israel declaring a state of war after Palestinian militants launched an unprecedented attack. I went on twitter to see what I could find out. The whole thing has a feel of unreality about it. I can’t put my finger on why.

There’s some blurred out very short videos supposedly showing the Hamas militants in tanks and going door to door shooting Israelis. It feels very staged to me. This could be the beginning of World War 3, or some end times Biblical prophecy. Yet it feels like a bankers trick.

Israeli soldiers have been executing large numbers of Palestinians for years in attacks which have supposedly ramped up in recent times. Hamas has perhaps been fueled by that anger and heartbreak, sure. But for the world’s most advanced military intelligence to have missed this attack feels a little dumb to me. If the war funding spigot turned off to Ukraine, might they not need another pointless quagmire? Or several of them to keep markets propped up?

I’d say that Hamas should evacuate out Israeli people and take them into Palestinian territory since their lives seem to be worth 10 times more, but considering the biggest mass Covid jab experiment took place in Israel, it is clear to me that nobody’s lives matter to the powers that be. It’s all about capital flows and numbers on a screen. As always I pray for peace.

I really enjoyed this hot take by Gregory Mannarino. Is this simply a new spigot to keep the markets propped up? Is it a way for Netanyahu to keep his grip on power? Depopulation by its nature is deflationary in real economic terms. So where does all of that funny money have to go?

Can we find a better way?
