harmful sturdy measures which harm the health care system while leaving the military on scale. out of fears of pending confrontation between tell of the have been grown following reports that a rainy and so rested over recent thailand bombings were targeting israeli diplomats israel also wants more sanctions against iran as its nuclear program progresses despite terror rodrick iterating its willingness to resume what sits on top. of the fate of iran is just one of the issues discussed now by gerald celente the founder of the trends research institute well next to give. his predictions for the headlines of tomorrow that's coming up next. in the autumn of two thousand and eleven a phenomenon a grassroots movement that we all know as occupy wall street became the growing

face and voice of america but at the start of two thousand and eleven there was one man that predicted movement such as occupy wall street would be sweeping through the united states and that man is my current guest here to speak with r t gerald solenn t. founder of the trends research institute and publisher of the trends journal thank you for saying time to speak with me again what do you think will happen with occupy wall street twenty twelve occupy wall street's gone global you know people keep looking to america for something to happen here and then the rest of the world kind of latches on to it even though you think that american spirit is dead this whole world kind of focuses on the united states for the center of some kind of social economic geo political or cultural change and occupy wall street was just that it inspired an occupy movement worldwide we call it the invasion of the

octopus like tentacles reaching out all over the world when you cut one off another one. it's an estimated eighty countries in one hundred twelve there is no stopping it and by the way the very police brutality that tried to stop the movement in wall street is what brought it to the forefront the movement is not going to stop winters. things are quiet now. the governments around the world do not know how to control the. all the events of police brutality against occupy wall street activists took place before the national defense authorization act was signed by president obama what can happen now to all the americans that speak out against the way that their elected officials are governing the country one of the. twelve trends for two thousand and twelve is battlefield america it's

going to be the will of the people against the will of the government the senate of the united states of the house of representatives the gang of five. and deciding like this guy lindsey graham that cracker from south carolina is calling america a battlefield and saying that if you're accused of being taught in to a terrorist organization or you're a belligerent is the way the act is now you have no judge you have no jury you have no trial you don't have charges filed against you the military could come in and take someone like me that they may call the bill lidgerwood's because they don't like what i have to say they could take me away lock me up in detention blow my brains out no lawyer no hey these corpus it's the bill of no rights saw and by president obama and what it does it also allows the military to take somebody like

me or someone they don't like who they choose who they. chooses to be called an anti american or working with a terrorist group i may give money to a group that they don't like and they could talk back to me you have forecast that a trend involving what you believe will be economic martial law being implemented in the u.s. what exactly do you mean by that the entire fine. anshul system is collapsing it's a worldwide financial meltdown we can see the collapse of the european union it's happening in front of us there's no way of bailing them out just the g seven has seven point five trillion dollars worth of debt coming to in two thousand and twelve how they're going to pay that off as it collapses look what's going on around the world look what's going on in greece it's a depression it's a depression in spain it's

a depression in portugal it's going to be depression in italy a recession in france it's collapsing around the world the you look at the housing market now starting to unravel the bubble being burst in china it's happening everywhere so what we're saying is they're not going to be able to keep this. we're going to see something smack down really hard probably coming from the european when that happens the united states will blame them if they see those europeans it's them socialists and now unfortunately we have to call the bank holiday because of the problems that they caused or a false flag a terrorist strike for the war which is another option going on very close to us as the iranian conflicts builded they will give an excuse to call a bank holiday in america you don't get your money. they close down the banks go back to nine eleven. they closed now wall street if you had certificates of deposit

like i did and try to get them out i could get them out that's right my money was frozen but a lot of money you see what happens to people without when argentina called the bank holiday back in two thousand and one two thousand and so people had money in the bank account to buy a house by the time the bank holiday was over that money couldn't buy a car that's right they devalue the currency you brought up iran what are the major concerns right now when it comes to iran and the possibility of. the united states again with the national defense authorization act part of that was that president obama affectively has declared war against iran the latest legislation put sanctions on foreign companies dealing with iranian banks there affectively putting in a bar go on our ron it's an act of war go back to world war two it's

like when the united states stopped japan from being able to buy oil now the iranians can't sell it if they lose just twenty percent of their of their ability to sell oil you're looking at that sixty percent of their g.d.p. comes from oil sales you're putting a bad a business if the united states israel or nato attacks iran's nuclear facilities. it will be as i've said before the beginning of world war three syria may be the other if you into it because who's syria's top ally. are wrong. and as we have seen from reports that came out with ealy. the united states in the west has been very instrumental in undermining the syrian government even before

the latest uprisings have begun you also say that there will be global game changer this year because of the election look at the people running for office look at the scars of the people all with me in the united states is going to be another lesser of two evils. i think it and i predicted that that barack obama would win right now you we said brock obama would win back in october we put our forecast out if the current front runner is romney for example war or gingrich sure or santorum you know it's the only wildcard in this as we see it as wrong paul if u.s. president barack obama wins a second term do you think that helped change course in any way can still help have a bit more freedom and his second term then in his first term didn't obama when he got elected in two thousand and nine had the entire nation virtually behind him do

you remember the cheer leading in grant park do you remember that he had a democratic congress behind him do you remember that the people gave him everything that he wanted to do you also remember all the back tracks that obama went through remember obama's first day the stage i'm going to close guantanamo. bay and remember those bush tax cuts no more for me audios they remember that rendition a going to happen on the my watch oh in those ugly wars the bush out how about some more predator drones into pakistan how about up in the troop level in afghanistan i'll tell you why after another four years of obama people are going to be wanting bush back and what will be the. trend or trends for twenty as i see it there are four things that could change the future one is repatriate

repatriate bring new jobs back home bring production back home is going to cost a little more yes but guess what you can get paid more. and that quality is going to be better for the trend to change it has to begin at the grassroots it's not only americans it's every country having national pride in what they do best number two direct democracy let the people vote let the people vote on major issues i don't need as i said a gang of five thirty five telling me we have to go to war against libya we have to go to war against iraq we have to go to war against now ron let the people vote you want the war on drugs to keep going let the people vote you want to bail out banks let the people vote right now as i said we have politicians telling us how to think

how to eat what to believe what not to believe what to watch and what not to watch number three secession it's to pay this soviet union knows this story and the indicted state should get the same story in their heads it can't be run by essential government anymore get think the taleban want to invade vermont you think they got their eye on utah you know here we are it's ten years after nine eleven and this still putting out that same phony whining that the reason that they want to invade us is because they hate our freedom and liberty freedom and liberty hey anybody read the national defense authorization act hey you've been felt up at the airport lately flying the friendly skies g.p.s. signal on do you car cops watching you listen what freedom what liberty now it has to do with foreign policy my favorite trend of all of them going

out of style. puts style back into the system amid the still ongoing our economic hardship and joblessness and unemployment are there any smart investments are there any successful moves to make or break the chains break the chains in every single way you can you stop going to the chain stores if you stop buying well you start filling the market niches needs where is going to be the biggest growth was obvious the whole i t move is just going to continue to grow heritier a cyber security is going to be huge because they're going to keep hacking into it and it's going to be a fight between the government and freedom so anything having to do with cybersecurity is a huge business the other ones or anything having to do with health care anything we're an aging society the european nations and in america anything having to do with health care alternative health care particularly there's plenty of options and plenty of opportunities but nothing is going to change until the individual changes

and that's the most important aspect to understand gerald celente thank you very much for your time thank you.
