Dear Reader:
Right now, on Netflix, a new documentary is looking at 9/11 and terrorism in general. A few days from now will mark 20 years since commercial planes hit the towers, with one (the official story claims) going down in an open field (flight 93) and another hitting the Pentagon (though none of the 300,000 cameras pointed at the building have ever caught it).
In the first episode, the narrative is to present the case that the same hijackers that took over the two planes that crashed into the World Trade Center were part of an organization, which was originally trained, armed, and financed 20 years prior by the American army to defeat the Soviet Union in Afghanistan.
In other words, once the Soviets broke their word and expanded their empire into Afghanistan, U.S. presidents had to counter that clearly offensive move by defending the boundaries of what the Soviets agreed to during the Cold War.
Americans armed the Mujahidin (holy warriors) with Stinger missiles, which proved very effective at hitting and taking down Soviet helicopters. The USSR did retreat, but the germ of hatred towards Western intervention in Middle East affairs was birthed.
It then accelerated when the U.S. responded to Saddam Hussein's invasion of Kuwait and gave birth to the idea that America will never allow these countries to solve their own problems and remain sovereign for long. This is similar to Napoleon's liberation of European monarchies, which was seen as positive, but his reluctance to leave the conquered countries afterwards.
The little gang that Americans funded in the early and late 1980s, called Al-Qaeda (the foundation, in free translation), when it was just a fringe organization numbering a few dozen people, became convinced that American colonialism is a plague and was further persuaded that only through terror will it achieve lasting change and diplomatic reform.
The lesson here is that U.S. thinktanks, military strategists, and political leaders failed to realize that they were training and funding a group of people whose ideology was that no empire, whether it be the Soviet or the Westerners, should have any say when it comes to the fate of the Afghan people or of any other nation outside of their own borders.
Whether or not you happen to agree with that is not my point. My message is that by meddling in the affairs of others and suppressing the ability of this faction of people to live in a way they wish to, unintended consequences occurred. Worse off, the delay manifested in 2001, a full 13 years after the official date of inception for this group, even though the terrorist group did attack during the 1990s, but nothing like the "planes mission."
Likewise, the government and central banks, acting from a place of trying to keep things in order, fund and arm financial terrorists on Wall Street, who reap benefits from currency-printing to the dismay of free-market advocates.

Just as America's politicians celebrated the retreat of Soviet forces, I'm sure Washington and the central banks are overly ecstatic by the fact that in 2021, the markets are set to break more all-time highs than in any other year for the past century, but this free ride isn't without a cost.
I assure you that society will pay for currency printing on such an industrial scale, and you must keep that firmly in mind.
The delay makes it seem like shock absorbers have done their job and that this is all some conspiracy theory perpetrated by fear mongers, but it's not. The wrath of mathematical certainty will come back to hunt Jerome Powell and his gang of printing junkies. Unfortunately, as with 9/11, their actions will result in the suffering of innocent people.
