The Man Who Predicted The Iran War: The Next 9/11 Will Target Your Bank Account! | Professor Jiang
Professor Jiang Xueqin maps today's geopolitical tensions onto the dynamics that brought down ancient civilizations like the Bronze Age. He argues that the global economy is built on a fragile foundation of US military hegemony and the petrodollar, and that a breakdown of global trade could stall innovation and trigger mass migration. His most striking warning is that the next catastrophic attack will be a cyber or physical strike on financial data servers, designed to wipe out people’s bank accounts — a 'Financial 9/11' — rather than another attack on physical symbols of power.
