Ex-Pentagon advisor James Rickards warns of IMMINENT global economic crisis, mass starvation

On this episode of New Order, we speak to James Rickards, former Pentagon advisor and editor of Strategic Intelligence. He discusses the US-Iran closure of the Strait of Hormuz and why it is likely to remain closed for the foreseeable future, how the global economic crisis will start unfolding, including a risk of mass starvation, China’s vulnerability to the continued closure of the Strait of Hormuz and why Donald Trump would want the Strait to remain shut, Trump’s plan to reinforce petrodollar hegemony through a duopoly of oil with Russia, India’s balancing act between Russia and the United States and why the dollar is likely to continue to dominate, why the new BRICS currency is gold, his forecast for the price of gold, and much more.

Finally, New Order’s Zarah Khan puts questions from you, the viewers, to Afshin Rattansi. You can send in your questions to be answered to @AfshinRattansi on X to be answered on next week’s episode!

And a question for you the viewers: Will the US war on Iran be the beginning of the end of the petrodollar?
