Moon Rising HD

In this excerpt from Moon Rising, the Moon is presented in it’s “full natural color” revealing that it is not a grey colorless rock we’ve been led to believe. This full color photograph taken during the Clementine Mission in 1994 shows a moon filled with color and what could be life forms and flying saucers hovering over the lunar surface. Just one of many full color moon photos of the moon from the film. Do not confuse these photos with my “air-brushed” black and white photos I did in Moon Views. This is the real color of the moon. This is the first time in human history we are seeing the moon in it’s full natural colors. http://moonrising-themovie.com/

Islamic Caliphate Rising: Wars and Rumors of Wars

MAZAR-I-SHARIF, Afghanistan (Reuters) – Afghan protesters angered by the burning of a Koran by an obscure U.S. pastor killed up to 20 U.N. staff, beheading two foreigners, when they over-ran a compound in a normally peaceful northern city on Friday in the worst ever attack on the U.N. in Afghanistan.

Call it the beginning of the End of U.S. involvement in the central Asia and prelude to greater Christian/Muslim War.

10 Years of countless lives, Trillions of Dollars, and mountains of humanitarian aid have just vanished. The U.S. and the west just lost the Muslim world and particularly central Asia. Afghanistan has been a lost cause for years and the real nightmare of a radical oriented Pakistani government is becoming a reality.

The Great Red Eastern Dragon is sitting quietly by as U.S. influence in the region crumbles. China is Pakistan’s new benefactor and largest arms supplier. China is and will continue to supply radical Islam in an effort to swing the influence their way. China has Trillions of Dollars and no conscience as long as it gets unfettered access to the great energy and mineral wealth of central Asia. The formation of a new Mongol Islamic coalition in the region is worrisome. Again and again the media and officials totally avoid the topic of China’s influence in destabilising the region.

From western Mongolia through the STAN countries all the way to Turkey the Muslim horde is being primed for battle. The latest Koran burning is just the first in many matches that will ignite the powder-keg.

There is no good move for the west and the United States, once you are in bed with the devil you had best wish he is not on top. Get the heck out is the only sensible move, get out and let them kill each other. In the absence of a foreign target they will kill each other.

The perfect storm is a coalition of Persian and Arab radicals that can bury the hatchet for long enough to mount a campaign, all liberal Muslim Governments will fall like dominoes. If the U.S. puts boots on the ground in Saudi Arabia they are politically done and exposed as anti-democratic hypocrites, if the U.S. does not and Arabia falls then the price of oil will hit $300 and the entire western glass house economy crashes.  The choices are very bad and beyond worse.

Asia and Russia have the weapons and technology that the Muslims want so U.S. influence is diminished more and more. To make matters worse the U.S. can pull back and reorganise but it cannot save the European economy from Oil Blackmail. With every move the U.S. is being pushed back and isolated. Nobody will engage the mighty U.S. Military but there is no reason to, biding their time and wearing the west down has been far more effective than a direct confrontation for the Muslims.

Israel can beat any Islamic country right now, but Israel would be hard pressed to defeat the onslaught of Iran, Turkey, Iraq, Egypt and 20 million foot soldiers pouring over the Euphrates river. What took 20 years to build and equip before may only take a few years now. A new Muslim Caliphate could come into formation by the end of 2011.

The U.S. will abandon Israel. It is the inevitable conclusion to 60 years of failed Mid-east policy and a bankrupt empire. India will be hard pressed between China and Pakistan. Europe will go right wing protectionist as they always do in times of crisis and Russia will return to the world stage rearmed and flush with cash. In trying to save all of its empire the U.S. is going to lose all of it. They should have learned from the U.K. who bowed out gracefully while still retaining massive influence and territory.

America is out of cash and can’t pay for shock and awe. Nobody wants them any more.

Muslims look at the great east/west conflict as a matter of destiny. They cannot escape it. They will sacrifice 100 million for the sake of honor and Allah. In their minds all roads lead to Jerusalem, they will not stop even if the blood flows to the bridle of the horse.

Globalism would have us believe we need to live in tolerance of other cultures and toss flowers at those who want to kill us. Globalism and multiculturalism is the embrace of death. The Military exist to defend the nation and its people… not force our way of life on others. Why any nation would spend trillions of dollars and its sons to help an enemy culture that slaughters innocents for burning a book is beyond all wonder. People fought and died for the right to speak freely, burn books and defend their way of life. Muslims can burn the Bible by the truck load and it would mean nothing. Why we debase ourselves with such people is unfathomable. Not only do we waste resources on these people but we bring them over here by the millions and promote the spread of their intolerable beliefs.

Rising Inflation Turning Up the Heat on Central Bankers!

A hilarious thing happened earlier this month. The President of the New York Fed, William Dudley, tried to justify the Federal Reserve’s easy money policy.

In a speech before the Queens Chamber of Commerce, he claimed inflation wasn’t a problem, noting as one example that:

“You can buy an iPad2 that costs the same as an iPad1 … you have to look at the prices of all things.”

The response from the crowd? Utter disbelief! One person in the crowd referenced the rampant food inflation we’re seeing by asking Dudley,

“When was the last time, sir, you went grocery shopping?”

Another quipped,

“I can’t eat an iPod!”

Me?

I can’t believe the claptrap the Fed is peddling either! Former Goldman Sachs economists like Dudley and his Ivy League-educated boss Ben Bernanke may say (at least publicly) that inflation is under control. But the rest of us in the Real World know that’s bupkis.

Gas. Food. College. Heck, Diet Coke! It’s all getting more expensive.

More importantly, the OFFICIAL data is now confirming what you and I are seeing every day. That’s turning up the heat on central bankers worldwide — with important investment ramifications for you.

Don’t Look Now, but Inflation
Gauges Are on the Rise!

We get three major inflation reports every month here in the U.S. — one each on import prices, producer prices, and consumer prices. So what did the latest figures show?

* Import prices jumped 1.4 percent in February from January. That easily topped forecasts, and it was the fifth month in a row where prices rose by more than 1 percent. Imports cost 6.9 percent more than they did a year earlier, the fastest inflation rate in nine months. And imported food shot up the most in any month since the government began tracking in 1977!

Last month import prices leaped higher than had been expected.

* Producer prices surged 1.6 percent, the biggest monthly gain since June 2009! Wholesale goods and services are now rising in price at a 5.6 percent year-over-year pace, the most in almost a year. Further up the pipeline, intermediate goods rose in price at the fastest pace since July 2008 while crude goods jumped another 3.4 percent.

* Consumer prices jumped 0.5 percent, the most in 20 months! Price increases at the “core” level are also picking up, rising by two-tenths of a percent for two months in a row. That’s something we haven’t seen since the fall of 2009.

Then earlier this week, we learned that U.K. inflation surged to 4.4 percent in February. That was faster than the 4.2 percent expected by economists, and the worst reading in any month since October 2008. Consumer inflation in the 17-nation euro zone is also picking up. At 2.4 percent in February, it’s now comfortably above the European Central Bank’s 2 percent “limit.”

Market Sands Shifting as
Price Pressures Increase

Look, central bankers can try to stick their heads in the sand for a while when the numbers take a turn for the worse. That’s what U.S. policymakers — and their developed world counterparts in the euro zone and U.K. — were doing for a while.

But our foreign counterparts are showing increasing signs of breaking ranks. That’s leading to speculation the ECB could hike rates as soon as next month, with the U.K. not far behind in July.

Here in the U.S., Bernanke is still (yes, STILL!) dragging his feet. But the yield curve continues to flatten as I predicted several weeks ago. And investors are continuing to bet against him in the interest rate futures market.

So why should this matter to you?

Interest rate hikes will likely push stock prices down.

Well, I wouldn’t be surprised to see risk assets like stocks get hit as slightly tighter monetary conditions get priced in. I also continue to believe the dollar is vulnerable.

I’d use the “relief rally” we’ve seen in the wake of the Japanese quake and nuclear crisis to lighten up on stock market risk. I’d also look to hedge currency risk in my fixed income portfolio using investments such as the iShares S&P/Citigroup 1-3 Year International Treasury Bond Fund (ISHG). Foreign bonds tend to rise in value when the dollar falls because each interest or principal payment remitted in a foreign currency translates into more dollars as it’s repatriated.

Oh, and if a Fed official shows up in YOUR town to talk policy? Feel free to heckle all you want! These guys don’t know what the heck they’re talking about when it comes to inflation.

Until next time,

Mike
