Understanding our CASINO fantasy financial markets! It’s not sustainable!

Few seem to comprehend that we now live with VIRTUAL (fantasy) financial markets (globally). Our financial markets are not based upon ‘material’ reality (as they have been historically). Our currencies are ‘virtual’. Our prices of commodities are ‘virtual’. All of our financial transactions are now ‘virtual’. This means that we live in a world of ‘virtuality’ (does anyone comprehend)???

The reality of a ‘virtual’ image is what I/You witness within today’s financial transactions. Let’s summarize the basic issues that we face and why our financial markets are now ‘manipulated’ and ‘managed’ by electronic computers.

1. We use ‘virtual’ currencies (the dollar, pound, krona, yuan, peso, etc.). These currencies are composed of ‘nothing’ material. This means that our financial authorities (like our FED) can create these currencies (from their inner self/mind/consciousness). This means that ‘virtual’ algorithms create our ‘prices’. This means that all ‘prices’ (silver/gold/oil/bread/milk, etc.) can be ‘manipulated’ via our electronic computers (with select computers doing most of this manipulation). It’s a HOUSE of CARDS that I call a fantasy CASINO. Stock prices are manipulated. Bond prices are manipulated. Silver prices are manipulated. Gold prices are manipulated. Oil prices are manipulated. Wow!
2. Prices are ‘virtual’ numbers: our ‘numbers’ that reveal our prices are nothing but inner units of math. Math is derived from the human mind/consciousness (not our outer material reality). Look at your personal SMART phone for evidence of this reality. All you witness are ‘numbers’ and ‘names’ that indicate a ‘price’ in the marketplace. Algorithms (using source codes) create these ‘prices’. This allows our select computers (monitored by our select authorities) to ‘manipulate’ these prices (in real-time). Is this our REALITY today? I think so!
3. Our electronic Futures Exchanges: today we can trade a commodity on the CME Futures Exchange. Witness this exchange here. http://www.cmegroup.com/markets. This exchange allows me/you/billionaires to purchase ‘naked short’ contracts so as as to ‘manipulate’ commodity prices. The short contracts increase the ‘imaginary’ supply of a commodity (say silver) in the computer screen (our virtual financial markets). This increase in the ‘imaginary’ supply creates a PRICE decline within the real markets for SILVER (because prices follow a supply/demand reality). Select authorities can ‘manipulate the price of ‘silver’ with a purchase of these ‘futures’ contracts. All this was ‘illegal’ as there is no settlement of these contracts in REAL metal. All is settled in our ‘virtual’ dollar (an imaginary unit). It’s all a HOUSE of CARDS that I call a fantasy CASINO market.

As I write our DOW Index is up some 578 points. Bitcoin is up some 585 points. Silver is at $65 (a manipulated price). Gold is down to $4400 (also a manipulated price). Oil is at $99.67 (another manipulated price). The 10 year Treasury bond is at 4.94 percent (this is also manipulated). We live with ‘virtual’ prices which can be ‘manipulated’ by our computer algorithms in real-time (by select authorities). Our leaders like Scott Bessent can manipulate the bond market with his purchases of treasures. All this should be viewed as ‘illegal’ trading (but it isn’t)!

Our Fed Chairman can also ‘manipulate’ our trading markets with his actions and policies. He can create our ‘virtual’ dollar from his thinking (consciousness). He can purchase treasuries to influence bond yields. He can manipulate the Fed Funds Rate to manipulate ‘mortgage rates’ and interest rates for autos, houses, etc. He is one of the select authorities who operates behind closed doors. Wow!

Select authorities can ‘manipulate’ all prices and create decisions that distort all our markets. It’s all supposed to be legal (but it really is all illegal and corrupt). Our foundational document is our Constitution. This document declares that our money units should be tied to GOLD and/or SILVER (a material commodity). But this reality is ignored by our select authorities (Trump, Bessent, Warsh, etc.). Today, Trump is proposing a gift of $5,000 to each citizen who votes for Republicans in the coming Mid-term election. He calls this a ‘dividend’ as our economy is so rich and properous. But is this legal and constitutional? NO! This action would increase our national DEBT by some $1.5 trillion (my estimate). Trump cares less about this as he recognizes that ‘dollar’s’ (today) can be created OUT-OF-NOTHING (the human mind). All is VIRTUAL and few comprehend this reality.

We are living a FANTASY lifestyle today. All is ‘virtual’ and ‘imaginary’ (yet we visualize reality within our mind). So all SEEMS real to our thinking. But all is really a fantasy that will eventually CRASH into oblivion.

Give this missive some serious attention when you have time to contemplate the trends developing today. All is mostly FANTASY and this type of reality is not lasting. It will eventually CRASH to nothingness. But for the time being all seems SOLID. Our leaders probably KNOW these realities, but they also know that they can FOOL the markets with their ‘manipulations’. Wow! What a MESS!

Let’s view the World from the MACRO level! Who has ruled our planet…and who should rule?

If we want to understand rulership, we need to view our world/planet from the MACRO level. All the ‘think tanks’ on this planet (West and East) view the World from this Higher Level. Any new MODEL for this planet must start at the Macro level. We will soon need a New Model IMO. So let’s (briefly) review the prior rulership of this planet and then Speculate on WHO should rule this World/Planet today!

When I look at our World today I notice the few leaders who attempt to rule this planet from their desk. We can divide the planet into those who rule the WEST and those who rule the EAST. Since the end of WW II, the WEST has mostly ruled this planet. America was the leading MILITARY power on this planet during and after WW II. America also had the world’s leading National Currency (the dollar). This made America the leading candidate for leadership of the WEST and also the entire planet. The EAST (Russia/China) did not have the clout of the WEST.

Prior to WW II, the British Empire ruled most of our planet. The British currency (the Pound) was the world’s leading currency. The military might of the world was mostly within the British Empire. Some 25% of our planet was owned by the BRITS. All this changed after WW I and WW II. America received the blessing from our religious institutions and from the BRITS. This made America the new ruler over planet Earth.

The key leaders of the WEST (after WW II) were Dwight D. Eisenhower (America), Winston Churchill (Britian), Charles de Gaulle (France), and Konrad Adenauer (West Germany). America started the Marshall Plan to rebuild Europe and the above leaders started NATO to create a military alliance for the West. The key leader of the EAST were Joseph Stalin and then Mao Zedong of China.

Our entire planet was mostly ruled by the above political men after WW II. A challenge emerged between these rulers and then the military might of NATO and the Warsaw Pact was created. These two military alliances were the military MIGHT that ruled this planet. America was part of the West’s alliance, NATO. Russia was the primary power that promoted the Warsaw Pact Alliance. So, in effect, Eisenhower and Stalin were the KEY rulers of planet Earth after WW II. Both created nuclear BOMBS to give them credability over all the other nations on this planet. Wow!

Today, our situation has evolved and the rulers have changed. Today, we have new personalities who attempt to rule this planet (from their desks). Donald John Trump tries to rule the West from his desk in Washington D.C. Vladimir Putin tries to rule the East (with help from Xi Jinping of China) from their desks in Moscow and Beijing. The Donald gets help from Western rulers in Europe like Emmanuel Macron, Andy Burnham, Friedrich Merz, and a few others. But the Donald thinks he is the KEY ruler over the entire WEST. Putin probably thinks he is the KEY ruler of the EAST.

We all live on a planet of some 8.2 billion people. These people are agents/servants of the above political rulers. The West says they are promoting DEMOCRACY for the planet. The East says they are promoting authoritarian or state-led political systems for their people. The West (mostly) calls the East Fascist/Communist. The East calls the West a collective system of misrepresentations (an Empire of Lies). So we have various political leaders (with their institutions of military power) ruling this planet of 8.2 billion people. When push comes to shove the STATE rules and the people become slaves. There is NO option for the individual given our current man ruled political systems. The individual is viewed as sub-serviant to the STATE (and their rulers).

As I write, the entire planet is under severe stress from these man-ruled political systems. Personally, I view all the KEY political leaders on this planet (as of today) as mostly mentally ill. They do not seem to comprehend what they are doing (politically) and (militarily). The war with Iran is an insane military conflict that is based on the key political systems in America and Iran. The war in Ukraine is another insane military conflict based upon the ideas of Putin and Zelensky (both of whom are killing thousands of their own citizens as they attempt to conquer each other). Ukraine currently has some 28 million citizens (down from some 40 million in 2022). This results in some 12 million who left the nation or were killed since this war started.

The situation in the Middle East is no better. Trump and Netanyahu (rulers of America and Israel) have killed thousands of civilians and military personnel since this war started, February 28, 2026. Trump has even threatened to eliminate the ‘whole civilization of Iran in one night’. Is this generational saver-rattling or what? Some say he is now threatening to use ‘tactical nuclear weapons’ so as to WIN this war with Iran. Is this leader ‘insane’ or what?

Our planet is now in serious trouble due to our man-ruled political systems on this planet. Why should a few insane politicians RULE this planet? America is dying from their political system ($40 trillion in national debt). The entire WEST is dying from debt and financial issues. The EAST is in a similar condition. The use of military power is also now dysfunctional. Nuclear weapons are the LAST resort for these insane man-ruled politicians. Who is going to WIN given this insane system?

We all need to start thinking about reality from this MACRO level going forward. Why? Because we need a NEW MODEL for this planet. The current man-ruled MODEL is not working for the PEOPLE (now some 8.2 billion people on planet Earth). We all need to get involved so that the NEW MODEL which emerges is beneficial for the common man (the individual). By viewing the MACRO level we can discern the key issues that we need to address going forward! Give this some consideration after you READ this missive.

View these images of our man-ruled leaders for context:

Our planet Earth consists of some 8.2 billion people. WHO should rule this planet???

I think you know my view! Our invisible SOURCE in the highest realm rules this planet! We can call this Source I AM WHO I AM!!!

Europe in ‘Chaos’: Germany, France, U.K., Sweden, heading for real ‘change’!

My sense is that all of Europe (some 27 countries) are heading for political chaos over the next couple of years. As I write, Germany is now rejecting their leader, Frederich Merz. The AfD party is gaining influence and this means that Merz is likely to fall from power within weeks or months. Sweden has their elections for Parliment on September 13 and this could mean a new leader for Sweden.

We already have a new leader in the United Kingdom and France will select some new Senate leaders later in September. France will reject Macron when his election happens in 2027. Hungary just chose a new leader and some seven countries within the European system will also choose new leaders. All this means that the current trends will change significantly and new trends will emerge.

As I said in my recent blog, the situation in Ukraine is ‘dire’. Zelenskyy is holding on to power by a thread. His popularity is waning and if elections are ever held, Zelensky would lose IMO. As I write, Russia is planning a Mega Military attack on Ukraine this next week. The Witkoff, Kushner, Trump, peace plan did not work. Putin and most of the Russian leaders rejected any plan for a ‘ceasefire’. This means that huge military operations will happen against Ukraine and against Russia in the next few weeks.

My sense is that Ukraine’s economy will crash as Russia bombs warehouses, super markets, and gas facilities. Food lines will occur in a few weeks and Ukraine will then blame Zelensky and his leadership. The military superiority of Russia will emerge in the next few weeks and this means serious trouble for Zelensky and his NATO supporters. Germany is losing support for Ukraine with their new elections. Can the U.K. continue to support this losing proposition?

We are heading for total chaos within all of Europe in the next 12 months. Immigration is a problem. Energy is a problem. The younger generation is a problem. All this means serious change within all of Europe within the next year. I also expect the Trump administration to lose popularity by November 3 (the mid-term elections). The support for this war with Iran is declining rapidly. Trump is losing his political sanity and many now think his leadership will collapse by the end of 2026. I tend to agree!

Watch what happens over in Germany, the U.K., and Sweden this next couple of weeks. Then watch the coming elections in France. The voters are turning against the status quo and the YOUNG are rejecting all the current crop of leaders. This means major change later in 2026 and 2027. Personally, we all should reject the current crop of political leaders. They are ALL flawed (seriously) in their political philosophy. We need new leaders (peacemakers) and leaders who follow non-violent solutions! The MEANS is the KEY to the END! Think on this!

1700 years of Church lies re: the real location of the Mountain of Moses! It’s located in Saudi Arabia, not Egypt’s Sinai! Let’s review the evidence!

It appears, to me, that our church history is totally invalid and mistaken on the issue of Mount Sinai. The choice of a mountain, in Egypt, called Mount Sinai, was presented to the public as the real location where God (the God of Israel/Yahweh) spoke to Moses and gave him the ten Commandments. This mountain is now being debunked as the REAL mountain where God spoke to Moses. The REAL mountain is actually in Saudi Arabia. The names of this mountain are called Mount Horeb, Mount Jabla Maqla, and/or Mound Jabla al-Lawz. The evidence around this venue is overwhelming. I have watched many videos which present solid evidence that this is the REAL venue where Moses and the Israelites (some 2 million) heard the voice of God Almighty! The evidence is convincing to me. But do your own research and thinking!

Personally, I am convinced that the choice of this mountain in Egypt (by Helena, mother of Emperor Constantine), which she called Mount Sinai, is invalid and not valid history. During the days of Emperor Constantine, the mother of this Emperor (Helena) considered various mountains…and she chose a mountain that she thought was the valid mountain where Moses spoke to God. Today’s evidence, however, debunks her choice and the choice of various Coptic Monks who also adopted this mountain as the mountain where our ten Commandments originated. I say they were totally mistaken (unknowingly) given current evidence!

The REAL mountain of God is in Saudi Arabia IMO and the evidence is powerful in support of this venue. A new video, which used a high-tech Drone with AI imaging, has revealed that the mountain in Saudi Arabia, called Jabal al-Lawz, is the real venue where Moses, and some 2 million Israelites lived and wandered after the Exodus from Egypt (around 1446 BCE). This video is one of dozens which claim that the evidence is powerful for this location in Saudi Arabia. I have concluded as of today, that the evidence for Jabal al-Lawz (also called Jabal Maqla and Mount Horeb) seem logical and valid. Do your own research and study, however!

The above video uses modern-day science to analyze the mountain in Saudi Arabia to show that this venue is likely the REAL location of Mount Sinai. The images produced from this Drone using AI imaging shows that there are real chambers created within the interior of this mountain. The dark rocks also reveal that a real FIRE created the black appearance on the surface of these mountain rocks. The split-rock item, the burial grounds area, the golden calf site, the alter site where Moses spoke, and the various items of pottery discovered, reveal that this venue is powerful evidence that Moses and the Israelites lived and wandered in this general area. The old location which our church has promoted is obviously invalid (a lie) to me!

The other item of evidence is that scripture indicates that Moses and the Israelites remained near the base of this mountain for about one year. This provided time for creating the interior chambers (within this mountain) for Israelites to use for assembly and storage. Also, near the top is a cave which could be the cave which Elijah used during his time period. The many issues revealed in our scriptures tend to support the reality of this venue for the appearance of Yahweh and the giving of the 10 Commandments.

My sense is that the REAL Mount Sinai should be accepted as being in Saudi Arabia and not in Egypt (the old venue for Mount Sinai). The crucial points are that God Almighty did appear to Moses and some 2 million Israelites so as to make his reality evident. It should also be clear that the God of planet Earth is not a human Jew (as our Orthodox churches proclaim). Our real Creator God is likely the God that spoke to Moses at Mount Sinai (Jabla Meqla).

The God of Sinai is obviously a God who caused ‘trembling’ and some ‘fear’ in the minds of the Israelites. Who could approach this God? Only Moses was allowed to talk with this God. This God did reveal a list of commandments that we call the 10 Commandments.

This God is the Source of all behaviors (both good and evil)…see Isaiah 45: 7. This God was the God of Adam/Eve/Noah/Abraham/Moses/David/Yeshua/Jesus! According to the Islamic theology, this God was also the God of Mohammad. All the Prophets in the Old Testament referred to this God (Yahweh/Jehovah) as the God of Israel! Revelation 4 includes a description of this God and his/her Throne. So we all need to recognize this God as the God over planet Earth and our entire Universe!

The evidence leads me to the conclusion that we are now living in the Last Days of ‘mans rule’!!!

That’s my view! I am: Donald Bryholf Swenson, https://kingdomecon.wordpress.com.

Three day ‘pause’ in Ukraine war! Will this pause create a permanent ‘cease fire’???

As I write, Putin, Trump, and Zelensky have agreed to a three day pause in the war situation. This pause is meant to create a ‘cease fire’ for this war situation. Will it work? My sense is NO! The issues are much too serious for both sides IMO. Russia needs their SECURITY issues resolved and Ukraine needs their territories back. Can this happen via a ‘cease fire’? I don’t think so!

The real problem with this war is that both sides are at ‘loggerheads’ over issues of security, sovereignty, and political acceptance. Russia wants a real SECURITY blanket (a buffer zone) which Putin has stressed since this war started in 2022. Ukraine, under Zelensky, wants the opposite (a return of the territories which have been annexed to Russia and then a relionship with the WEST (Europe and NATO). This is unlikely to happen as the leaders are at total ‘loggerheads’ over these issues!

Russia sees this war as starting with the Coup in 2014 (started by the America CIA). There leader, Victor Yankovich, was removed (fled to Russia) and a new leader for Ukraine was installed (Petro Poroshenko). This leader bowed to Obama and to America’s CIA leaders (Brenen and Victoria Nuland) so as to compromise the interests of Russia (in favor of Ukraine).

After the coup in Kiev in 2014, Crimea and Sevastopol adopted declarations of independence on March 11, 2014. They held a referendum on March 16, 2014, in which 96.77% of Crimeans and 95.6% of Sevastopol voters chose to secede from Ukraine and join Russia. The Russian president signed the reunification deals March 18, 2014. Despite the convincing results of the referendum, Kiev refused to recognize Crimea as part of Russia.

In 2019, Vladimir Zelensky was elected the new leader for Ukraine. He claimed that he would settle the disputes with Russia and create a new Ukraine that would be independent and subservient to the West. This happened gradually and Zelensky was the catalyst that created issues that Putin found unacceptable (for Russia). The war started in February 2022 over these many issues of disagreement. Russia wanted the independent territories, Donetsk and Luhansk, to remain independent and/or to be part of the Russian Federation. Zelensky rejected this idea and war started as a result.

“The people have made their choice. An unequivocal choice … This is the will of millions of people,” Putin said, adding that the citizens of the four occupied regions would be part of Russia “forever”.

Shortly after, Putin signed the “accession treaties” on a podium alongside the Russian-installed heads of the four regions.

Russia has created these new territories and made them part of greater Russia. It is now a done deal (from the Russian point-of-view). The ‘security’ interests of Russia demand that these territories be part of a Buffer Zone that protects Russia from the NATO alliance which has expanded since 1991 to some 32 nations. Russia will never return these territories to Zelensky’s Ukraine IMO. This is impossible IMO as the Russian Duma has approved this annexation. The people within these territories also desire to be part of greater Russia (so it seems to me). This seems like a reality which cannot be changed with a ‘ceasefire’ or some agreement conjured up by Trump, NATO, and Zelensky! The deal must now realize that these annexed territories are part of Russia’s security needs. So far the West has not recognized these realities. This means that we will not witness any ‘ceasefire’ in the war situation going forward.

Russia has concluded (recently) that this military conflict will continue until Zelensky’s Ukraine is defeated (militarily). I see no compromise on these issues of war. As I write, Russia is bombing Kiev and closing the ports of Odessa. On the front lines, Russia, is gradually gaining new territories (daily). I don’t think this will change! We are witnessing a war that will continue until ONE side wins on the ground! That is my perspective.

Russia is currently gaining new ground and their desire to control all of the Donbas is part of their military strategy. Ukraine is denying this political goal (publically) and new Ukrainian Drones (hitting territories within greater Russia) is the strategy that Zelensky and the Ukrainian military are hoping will win this war situation. I say this is unlikely as Russia is much to powerful (militarily) for this to happen.

Think for yourself on all these issues and then watch this conflict continue going forward. There is ZERO chance of a settlement as I write this missive IMO!!!

This new meeting of Putin with Witkoff and Kushner will not create any positive results IMO. The leaders have opposed viewpoints that are at loggerheads. Expect a polite visit and then more war starting next Wednesday.
