QUESTION: Marty, when I asked you why we would lose in WWIII, you said the shoe is on the other foot this time. You said that you would do a report on that. Is there any update you can give because these people here in charge are in agreement that war is coming. I flew to Philadelphia in 2011 to see you at that WEC. You laid out the war cycle would turn up in 2014 long before anyone even thought of war. There are many people copying you now pretending it is their research who do not have the contacts behind their charts. I should point out, that they put you on French TV not in America. Your own country will not put you on TV because they are beholding to the Neocons. When the Trump Administration came to write a peace plan, they came to you, not these charlatans. It does seem they are working in some conspiracy for war.

ANSWER: Yes, I am working on the 2026 War Report and a number of projects including the long awaited ECM book. China is currently the leading manufacturing country, surpassing the United States in production output. As of 2023, China’s manufacturing value-added reached $4.66 trillion, which is more than the combined output of the next three largest manufacturing economies: the United States, Japan, and Germany. Where the USA accounts for 17.5% of global manufacture, China stands at 27%.
In the war similations that I ran, China will defeat the United States because in an initial confrontation, we can wipe out at least 1/3 of their navy as they do to ours. However, like the US won the WWII became we had the manufacturing based to out produce Germany, that is what I meant that the shoe is on the other foot.
The European Union is collapsing. This is why they are up-in-arms about Visa & Mastercard for they need to control the economy and they are behind closed doors trying to get the UK to rejoin to prop up a failing economic experiment. But they do not care about Europe or the people. This is only about retaining their power. This is no different from NATO. It needs war with Russia just to remain relevant or they money stops and they too lose their jobs.
Here is a yearly chart of the Russian ruble. Despite all the press how Russia is weak, it is collapsing, etc., sorry, the ruble is rising not declining. China will come to the aid of Russia because they know they will be next. With a manufacturing base of this vast potential, the shoe is on the other foot this time. But this is about bureaucrats simply trying to hold on to their power. They do not care about you.
