If one were only to get their ‘news’ via the main-stream media outlets, it wouldn’t be wrong to assume when it came to the understanding of what is really going on across the globe, along with the consequences, most haven’t a clue. This point is made manifest with no greater example than the elections currently taking place in France.
I’m sorry, but the French election doesn’t trump, to all but exclusion, the potential for the breakout of WWIII. That is – unless you’re the main stream media. Yes, one has the potential for near immediate electoral upheaval (i.e., A potential Frexit, and possible finality for the E. U. experiment.) However, the other has the potential for a near immediate global war. That, of course, is the current standoff with N. Korea. And the reaction via the main-stream media? (Insert most recent Kardashian escapade here.)
Not to belittle the French elections and their possible consequences should the results go awry for the entrenched bureaucrats (not to mention the financial markets.) There is another standoff which may bring even more immediate consequences than the other.
Currently the Korean peninsula is in play much the same way Cuba was during the Kennedy administration known as ‘The Cuban Missile Crisis.’ The overall situation and its possible consequences for missteps are eerily similar.
