Germany revives Nazi-era tank brand
New ‘Panther’ tank is destined to be “a game changer on the future battlefield,” according to its manufacturer
German arms giant Rheinmetall unveiled its new main battle tank at the major weapons exhibition in Paris on Monday. The vehicle comes under the ‘Panther’ nickname in an apparent nod to Nazi Germany’s iconic PzKpfw V medium tank.
The new tank boasts a new 130mm gun and is marketed as having “optimized sensor-to-shooter links,” heavily relying on digital systems to control the battlefield. While closely resembling the Leopard 2 family main battle tanks in its appearance, the Panther is a “radically new” tank “concept not constrained by yesterday’s technology,” Rheinmetall insists.

Japan On Verge Of Systemic Collapse With "Dramatic, Unpredictable Non-Linearities" In Financial Markets, DB Warns
Less than a week ago, we wrote that "As Yen Crash Accelerates, It Puts Catastrophic End Of MMT Experiment In The Spotlight" a less than cheerful assessment echoed this morning by Bloomberg, which writes that "Japan Starting to Crack as Yen Tumbles With Stocks and Bonds" noting that despite the yen crashing to a 24-year low (for the same reasons we have repeated again and again, namely you can't keep your 10Y yield at 0.25% and avoid a currency collapse in a scorching inflationary environment), Tokyo stocks were down the most since March.
Nuclear weapon strike is more likely now than at any time since the Cold War with the number of nukes in the world set to rise following 35 years of decline, report warns
This was 375 fewer than in early 2021, according to estimates by the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI).
The number has come down from a high of more than 70,000 in 1986, as the US and Russia have gradually reduced their massive arsenals built up during the Cold War.
But this era of disarmament appears to be coming to an end and the risk of a nuclear escalation is now at its highest point in the post-Cold War period, SIPRI researchers warned on Monday.
'Although there were some significant gains in both nuclear arms control and nuclear disarmament in the past year, the risk of nuclear weapons being used seems higher now than at any time since the height of the cold war,' SIPRI Director Dan Smith said, introducing the report.
Stocks Stage Feeble Attempt At Dead Cat Bounce After Losing $1.3 Trillion In One Day
US index futures staged a feeble, fading attempt to bounce on Tuesday, following Monday's crash that wiped out $1.3 trillion in market cap and topped a furious 4-day selloff that was the worst since March 2020 and culminated in a bear market amid expectations - even from permabull Goldman - that the Fed's now accepted 75bps rate hike on Wednesday will hurl the economy into a recession. Futures on the S&P 500 rebounded more than 1% in early trading before fading the gain to just 0.24%, while Nasdaq 100 futures climbed 0.5%.

Apparently, the WEF Wants to Track Our Children with RFID Tags
You are all well-aware of the RFID chips they’ve been using for some time in our products, ranging from foodstuffs to electronic devices. During the Davos meeting in May 2022, the World Economic Forum (WEF) announced its intentions to take that tracking a step further…by placing RFID tags within clothing. They want the tags to be ubiquitous – in every article of clothing.
Radio-frequency identification, or RFID, tags put out a “pulse” that can be read/scanned by an electronic reader.
Great Reset: Globalist Controlled New Zealand to Introduce 'Climate Tax' on Cattle and Sheep
The World Economic Forum and other Globalist international organizations’ goal is to engineer a ‘Great Reset’ – a world government based on climate hysteria and social control.
Environmentalists and unelected self-anointed global elitists have concocted a new scheme to seize control of the agricultural industry and people’s food choices. Globalist-controlled New Zealand‘s new proposal plans to force livestock farmers to pay a climate tax for their cattle and sheep, who supposedly produce too much methane and CO2.
