If you haven't already heard the news, YouTube is setting boundaries for new creators hoping
to make money on the platform.
The headline on The Verge reads "YouTube will no longer allow creators to make money until
they reach 10,000 views" which for a lot of big name YouTubers, that really freaked them
out because they thought that the 10,000 views were per video.
In actuality, it's a lot easier than that.
It's 10,000 lifetime views.
The Verge continues to explain that even though opening the partner program to everyone caused
a huge growth in YouTube, however that model has caused a variety of issues ranging from
impersonating celebrities to the latest big issue on YouTube which is that ad companies
are actually pulling their ads off of YouTube because they do not want their ads shown next
to racist or otherwise negative videos.
In an effort to combat these bad actors, YouTube has announced a change to its partner program.
From now on, creators will not be able to turn on monetization until they hit 10,000
lifetime views on their channel.
A lot of people are praising this movie saying that 10,000 views is the perfect threshold.
It's high enough that you have to be legitimate in order to hit it, but also low enough to
not discourage smaller creators.
Now personally, pragmatically, I endorse this move.
I agree that now that YouTube is becoming this huge deal, they need to set up these
thresholds and boundaries on their partner program.
However speaking from a small creator who has been working at this for nearly 5 years
now.
This move just pains me on a personal level.
I talked about this on my Twitter for a little bit, but here on YouTube I'm going to show
you my journey to 10,000 views and how that has affected me today.
I got my start in 2013 which was still relatively very competitive but not as competitive as
it is to get started today.
From my very first video, posted on January 21st, 2013, it took me 45 weeks and 47 videos
to reach the 10,000 lifetime view mark.
Also part of the reason why I was able to hit that 10,000 thousand view mark so easily
is 'cause I had a lot of lucky breaks my first year.
Hank Green accidentally endorsed me in a video.
I started posting my Doctor Who reaction videos which got really really super popular.
But again this was also 2013 where YouTube was not as popular.
It was popular but not as popular as it is today so new creators that come to the platform
today might have an easier path to reaching 10,000 views than I did.
But who cares about how I got my first ten thousand views?
What you want me to do is show you the money!
Now if those first 10,000 views were not monetized, this is how much money I would've lost.
Drumroll, please.
Duh duh duh duh duh. Bam!
12 dollars and sixteen cents.
It's only 12 dollars!
Okay well if you're a broke college student like me, $12 can get you at least 3 meals.
So if my first 10,000 views weren't monetized, I would've lost $12.16 and, drumroll again
please.
Out of my lifetime revenue, that $12.16 is roughly a fourth of it.
And if you look at my lifetime revenue too.
If we start at that mark where I hit my 10,000 views, this was the most I've ever earned
in a day.
So yeah for people to dismiss this move and say oh it won't affect smaller creators that
much, no.
It will affect smaller creators.
And honestly I think the creators that will be most affected by this are the casual smaller
creators that only do this as a hobby.
But here's my advice for smaller creators who maybe are discouraged by this new move.
If you are only doing YouTube for the money, you are in the wrong business.
I've been working at this for four years now and it took me 11 months to get my first 10,000
views.
120,000 views later I have not seen a single penny of what I have earned.
They send the check out after the first $100.
If you're a smaller creator on the platform just starting out, you have to understand
that for the majority of the beginning of your career on YouTube, it's going to be all
about passion.
It's going to be a learning experience.
You're very rarely going to get famous off of your very first video.
And if you are one of the rare ones that has found success off of their first couple videos,
you do lose a lot of the learning experience that comes with building your channel up after
a couple of years.
How you build yourself back up after those slow periods.
You need to experience that failure so that you know when to build yourself back up, when
you do come across a slow period on your videos, or you come across a period where you're not
inspired to make videos.
If you're serious about YouTube and you want to make this into a job, you need to treat
it like a job.
You can't just sit back in your little YouTuber bedroom and be like "I can't believe I have
to reach 10,000 views in order to get paid.
This is not YouTube.
This is not my YouTube!
YouTube is over party 2k17 for the third time this month."
No.
If you want YouTube to become your fulltime job, you've got to treat it like one which
means working hard, not waiting for YouTube to just hand everything to you on a silver
platter.
No ain't no one going to do that.
You don't want people to do that for you.
You should want to work to build your channel to make your videos better, to make your videos
a quality content that YouTube wants to promote and that people want to see.
Think of your first 10,000 views as the internship before you get to your real fulltime job.
Actually with this new move on YouTube, it's more like internship, apprenticeship, part-time
job, and then maybe MAYBE you get a full-time job.
If you are one of those YouTube hobbyists, I am sorry this has affected you.
But YouTube is a job and YouTube needs to make money and this is one of their best ways
they've been able to do this.
But thank you for joining me on this episode of Tuber Talk.
Now what your thoughts about this new YouTube change?
Do you approve of this new 10,000 views threshold?
Do you think YouTube needs to start strengthening their thresholds for the partner program?
Rumor has it that they are looking to evolve that program so I'm glad I've already slipped
under the radar into it before they've done that.
I'm a little scared if they're going to up it up to like a thousand subs before you get
paid.
That's a little scary to me.
Just good luck out there, smaller creators.
We all need to hold each other close and band together in these trying times, but we'll
get through it!
That's the magic of YouTube is that we'll always get through it.

GTA 5 MONEY GLITCHES - How To Get FREE Custom License Plates! GTA 5 Online UNLIMITED MONEY - Duration: 5:05.
what's up gamer and welcome to this
segment right here and your boy a
sheriff we are going to save a ton of
money I want you to hang it out with me
and get this amazing it's not unlimited
money glitch really when you think about
it because you're investing into
something that's coming towards you will
get into it here I need you however to
show your support okay it's very very
important that you do drop that like on
the video it speaks volume to YouTube
okay and I want to let you guys know
something man I'm still here okay ad
revenue or not your boy is still here
i'm sure you guys see a lot of gte
youtubers kind of dropping out of the
picture i am still here baby and i'm
doing full support because i love doing
this it's not for the money it's for
your company and at the same time if you
know something it's it makes a lot more
sense to share it with the community
than keeping it to yourself now what
happened over the last allergy glitch
hop star became very smart and they said
oh this is not going to happen again a
million dollar a pop this is not going
to happen we are going to start tracking
down your clips and we're going to
restrict what you do with these cars now
the community the GTA community came up
with an idea saying if you have tons of
custom plates you can go ahead and
duplicate as many allergies as you want
as long as you have different plates on
it but every plate is going to cost you
a hundred thousand dollar it's not
something to laugh at I have a new
character I know this is not easy so
when I saw this glitch right here I
wanted to just bring it to you guys and
document it instantly before it gets
patched you need to jump on it all right
this is what you're going to need you're
going to see me jump screens right now
we're going to go over to my tablets and
I'm being saved right here with an
iphone in order to get you guys at
play-by-play instructions on how to do
this it's very easy guys order a plate
in my case I have two characters so i
ordered it under the female okay and we
sell the italica in the beginning and i
showed you guys with a marker how much
money i had okay just so we proved that
this doesn't take any money from you
from here you need to order a plate I'm
going to order a place call it al basha
al basha if you are interested to know
what that means that was like a royalty
class back in
Egypt back in the day so we're talking
in the 70s 80s and then they took that
class away they're like yeah peace out
homie no more al basha in Egypt's or
like okay no problem no more al basha
but after you order the plate they tell
you this is going to cost you 100 k and
you send the order you haven't lost any
money yet from this point right here go
back to your xbox or playstation 4 or
even the pc and if you are standing
inside the CEO building you can have to
come out because the order will get
processed once you step out of the CEO
building I like to do this in them the
custom shop inside my building because
it's very easy i don't get disturbed by
any other players there is no lag
involved there is nothing here and this
all depends on speed or game so let's go
back into the building here go into the
the mod shop and as you can see once you
go back in the order is waiting for you
right there and it's asking for a
hundred thousand dollars you guys i
showed you the amount of money we had in
the beginning we are going to accept and
we are going to quit the application /
game at the exact same time for once we
accept this this hundred-thousand-dollar
order right here boom we added there so
you accept it you don't wait for nothing
you just quit right away now i'm going
to speed up the process of course of
loading back once you load back you're
going to be standing inside your garage
and not you don't have to be standing
inside your garage don't get mixed up
okay you'll be back inside where you
spawn in my case I have myself spawning
in this building so I'm going to go to
the proper garage and as you can see the
car still has the King plate on it one
last step you got to do is go into your
mud shop inside that building and just
equip the brand new plate and as you can
see it's for free the money did not
change we did not lose a penny my advice
to you is make yourself like I don't
know 25 plates 20 plates whatever
maximum amount it is I haven't gone
there yet so I can't tell what is the
maximum amount just make yourself a ton
of plate so when we have an allergy
glitch you're backed up and you're good
to go I hope this helps I'll see you
guys on the next segment please baby
money in the bank that's what I'm
talking about where is
behind you cannot hear the chopper
blades did you got you bro how can you
not hear that oh wow look at this right
now ready city wait he's right now he's
right there waiting haha what's up man
what's up yes there was a whim yeah boy
we D how did you not hear the chopper
blades but that chopper came on top of
applause for like a month how do you not
hear the blame

NEPAL'S MILITARY SET TO USE TRANSCENDENTAL MEDITATION TO RELIEVE GLOBAL COLLECTIVE STRESS & STOP WAR - Duration: 6:50.
NEPAL�S MILITARY SET TO USE TRANSCENDENTAL MEDITATION TO RELIEVE GLOBAL COLLECTIVE STRESS
& STOP WAR
by Edward Morgan
This article was written by Col. (Ret.)
Jitendra Jung Karki and Dr. David R. Leffler
Nepal�s army schools are finishing their first stage implementation of Invincible Defense
Technology (IDT).
The ultimate goal of IDT is to prevent enemies from arising by reducing the collective societal
stress that culminates in war, terrorism, and crime.
IDT involves use of the Transcendental Meditation (TM) technique and its advanced practices,
ideally by the military, to reduce this collective societal stress.
Extensive peer-reviewed research has documented the efficacy of this approach.
Militaries and police worldwide have successfully field-tested and are now using this approach
(see Review Nepal, 10 August 2016 �IDT: A powerful, proven Tool for Police and Military�).
The army school in Bhaktapur, Nepal was the first military school to implement TM.
Three hundred of its teaching staff and 2700 students there have greatly benefited from
practicing TM, according to TM teacher Ms. Pappy Regmi.
Ms. Regmi says: �TM has been practiced by the students of Sainik Awasiya Mahavidyalaya
Sallaghari Bhaktapur for the past three years.
After the students mastered the simple, natural, and easy-to-learn TM procedure, we noticed
many positive changes in them.
They are less irritable, aggressive and destructive in nature than before.
Many students improved their academic performance.
This non-religious scientifically-validated technique is helping the students in their
overall development.�
Mr. Samim Anwar Shamim, the former Principal of the army school also noticed improvements:
�Daily Transcendental Meditation practice in the school greatly reduced the abuse problems
and antisocial behavior of students.
It has been the best tool to maintain discipline and healthy environment in the premises of
the army school.�
There are many other individual benefits to be gained for warriors who regularly practice
TM.
Three hundred ninety five peer reviewed studies show that TM improves physical and mental
health and wellbeing.
TM reduces the pathological and physiological results of chronic stress.
Clinical trials and meta-analyses show reductions in: anxiety, high blood pressure, smoking,
alcohol use, hardening of the arteries, insulin resistance, and a nearly 50% reduction in
risk of heart attack, stroke or death.
Due to the initial success of IDT implementation, the NEPAL ARMY WELFARE DIRECTORATE has taken
IDT seriously and has decided to implement it in three schools of the Nepal army.
Two army schools from Chitwan and Pokhara have already started the TM program as a part
of the project.
There are other important IDT benefits.
Research has shown that the TM technique promotes development and resilience, improves wellness,
and dramatically reduces burnout and symptoms of post-traumatic stress.
For this reason, the Veterans Society of Nepal and the Nepal Maharishi Vedic Foundation jointly
launched a project to teach the TM program to retired army personnel.
Due to their combined efforts, retired Nepalese army officers and Nepal Army Rehabilitation
Center war casualties have learned TM.
The individual benefits of IDT for the warrior are promising.
Invincible Defense Technology is aptly named.
The most important benefit to be gained from implementation of IDT is invincibility for
the nation of Nepal.
Invincible means incapable of being defeated; unconquerable.
Defense means to defend and to protect.
Technology is applied science.
The goal of IDT is to prevent enemies from arising.
The military that properly applies it can ultimately obtain victory before war.
Once this goal is achieved, the military becomes invincible because there are no enemies to
fight.
Former Home Minister, Deepak Prakash Baskota was one of the first Nepalese leaders to advocate
military use of IDT to create invincibility.
In an 2012 article published in Eurasia Review titled �How Nepal Can Have An �Invincible�
Military� he wrote: �Leaders in Nepal could make their mark if they adopt this most
ideal defense system.
The implementation of IDT would mark a turning point in the history of Nepal�s national
defense, and the leaders in Nepal would also be leading the world into perpetual peace.�
Nepalese military leaders were wise to follow his advice.
These are exciting times for the military of Nepal as increased numbers of TM meditators
in the army schools will be learning a more advanced practice of IDT.
In just a short time these warriors will have an even more powerful influence.
IDT �Prevention Wings of the Military� will accelerate reduction of Nepal�s collective
stress.
When their training is complete they will be able to operate directly at the level of
the unified field of all the laws of nature � a level that is a thousand million, million
(10 to the 15th power) times more powerful than the nuclear force.
It is the level where all the fundamental forces of natures are united.
For this reason, IDT supersedes all other known defense technologies (which are based
on electronic, chemical, and/or nuclear forces).
Therefore, the military of Nepal will gain the ultimate strategic advantage of invincibility
by averting the rise of any enemy and they WILL achieve victory before war.

Grendich Gamble - Jumping Puzzle - Diessa Plateau | Guild Wars 2 - Duration: 2:10.
This is a Guild Wars 2 guide for the jumping puzzle Grendich Gamble in the Diessa Plateau area.
The nearest waypoint is the Blasted Moors Waypoint.
And the jumping puzzle starts north east of it at the tower, right where I am located.
One thing to note, at this jumping puzzle you should be careful with the trebuchets
because if they hit you, they can kick you down
Here you should make sure to jump right from the edge, so that you get to the other side
Now this part is a bit tricky and you probably have to try it a few times before you get it right
Ok, now you just have to kill the guards and the trebuchet and you are done.
Special at this jumping puzzle is, that you find a rich silver vein instead of a chest at the end.
Alright, thank you for watching and until the next time.
Goodbye!

Quest 3 is out! - Fit for Battle - Duration: 2:30.
Death cultists.. Regular cultists, Dragons, Elementals
Fire beetles, Fire demons, Fire ghouls, FIRE SCORPIONS FIRE SPIDERS-
Yes yes, lots of fire and death, hmm how great for us...
Hi, I'm Joel Turner, one of the creatives behind Fit for Battle
I've got some super exciting stuff to share with you
because quest 3 has finally been released upon the world
and it's called 'VOLCANIC INFERNO'
100 new loot items, 12 new encounters set in a volcano
8 new monsters to slay & a whole bunch of fun along the way.
that rhymed.
But it's not just Quest 3- Volcanic Inferno
we've got 3 awesome new features that are coming out with it
that is going to change the way we run even more
So let's talk about 'Daily Step Loot'
If you like loot, but you don't like running every single day
then this is your feature (reiterates to rabbit)
So the steps that you acrue throught the day
during your normal life- you can now cash that in for a chest.
The more step you do in your day, the better the chest you get
and that chest is full of unique items, loot and ingredients.
Which brings me to my next feature-
'Athletomancy' There's a new kind of loot that you can get now
you get it in quests and you get it in Daily Step Loot
and they're called 'Ingredients'
What you do with those ingredients is that you go to the Athletomancy page
which is in you character sheet
and you can combine these ingredients to summon legendary gear-sets.
If you love kitting out your character and sweet gear
this is awesome.
So the third and final feature is called 'Fun Run'
it's a mode that you can find in the quest screen
and instead of listening to a dwarf and an elf yell at you, and goblins attacking you-
you listen to your own music
You choose your pace. You can get prompted or not
and basically, you can listen to your jams
the best bit is- you get loot at the end of it
Ah Looot...
Why would you run any other way?
Did I mention that quest 3 is like doubling the amount of loot
that is in the game right now
I mean, that's pretty good!
Lastly, I want to say thank you to all the people
that have been playing Fit for Battle
Seriously, tell your friends about it
because the more people we have playing this game
the faster we can release this content and grow
Keep running, and let's all get Fit for Battle
*Roooaaarrr*
I will eat you one and alllll!
Runner!
Get ready Runner, the cyclops comes!
Faster pace

Fmr. Defense Secretary William Cohen: Don't Give Vladimir Putin Respect | Morning Joe | MSNBC - Duration: 13:52.
SHIP. >> ASSOCIATE EDITOR AT THE
WASHINGTON POST, BOB WOODWOORD. >>> FOLLOWING BREAKING NEWS THAT
THE UNITED STATES LAUNCHED MISSILE STRIKES AGAINST A SYRIAN
AIR BASE. 59 TOMAHAWK MISSILES WERE
LAUNCHED FROM THE USS ROSS AND USS PORTER IN THE EASTERN
MEDITERRANEAN SEA, TARGETING THE SHAYRAT AIR FIELD NEAR THE CITY
OF HOMS. IT FOLLOWS A CHEMICAL ATTACK BY
THE SYRIAN REGIME WHICH KILLED HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE INCLUDING
DOZENS OF CHILDREN. WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION SAYS
SARIN GAS WAS MOST LIKELY USED. THE AIR STRIKES TARGETED
AIRCRAFT, AIR DEFENSE AND RADAR SYSTEMS.
ACCORDING TO U.S. OFFICIALS, EXTRAORDINARY MEASURES WERE
TAKEN TO AVOID CIVILIAN CASUALTIES AND NO PERSONNEL WERE
TARGETED. A SYRIAN MILITARY SPOKESMAN
CLAIMS AT LEAST SIX PEOPLE ON THE GROUND WERE KILLED.
RUSSIA, WHICH OPERATES OUT OF THE TARGETED AIR FIELD, RECEIVED
WARNING OF THE STRIKES THROUGH SECURE CHANNELS.
THEY HAVE THEIR VERSION OF WHAT HAPPENED AS WELL.
>> RIGHT. AND I WOULD WARN OUR RUSSIAN
COMRADE FRIENDS, IF YOU TELL DONALD TRUMP THAT HE DIDN'T
DAMAGE YOUR AIR FIELDS ADEQUATELY AND TRY TO MOCK HIM,
HE WILL COME BACK TONIGHT. I SHOULDN'T BE -- LIKE YOU'VE
TALKED TO ENOUGH OF HIS PEOPLE. >> ONE THING WE KNOW ABOUT HIM.
>> YOU SHOULD KNOW THIS. DON'T TEMPT HIM.
RIGHT? YOU'VE BEEN TALKING TO HIM
NONSTOP THROUGH BACK CHANNELS, RIGHT?
WHAT ARE YOU DOING? SO ANYWAY --
>> OH. DARK HUMOR.
>> NO, NO, NO. IT REALLY IS.
IT'S JUST NOT A SMART MOVE. >> IT'S NOT.
>> ON THE RUSSIANS' PART. WE STARTED TO DISCUSS THIS LAST
HOUR. TALK ABOUT THE PAUL THAT WOULD
HAVE HUNG OVER THE INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY HAD WE NOT RESPONDED
TO THE CHEMICAL ATTACKS THIS WEEK?
>> LET'S PUT SYRIA IN CONTEXT, WITH RESPECT TO WHAT CONGRESSMAN
HIMES HAD TO SAY. TWO VERY BIG THINGS FOR AMERICA
ARE AT STAKE. SINCE THE BEGINNING OF THE
SYRIAN CONFLICT, FIVE, SIX YEARS AGO.
LIBYA IMPLODES, SYRIA EXPLODES. >> RIGHT.
>> 5 MILLION PEOPLE ACROSS THE WORLD.
>> IT'S SHAKING JORDAN, LEBANON. THESE ARE BASICALLY PRO-WESTERN,
PRO-AMERICAN REGIMES. THAT IS A THREAT TO US.
IT'S ALSO UNLEASHED THIS TORRENT OF REFUGEES ON EUROPE,
DESTABILIZED THE EUROPEAN UNION AND PRODUCED A BACKLASH OF
POPULIST PARTIES EMERGING ALL OVER EUROPE.
PEOPLE DON'T LIKE TO TALK ABOUT THE EU IN THIS COUNTRY.
IT'S LIKE THE MOST BORING THING IN THE WORLD.
IT'S THE UNITED STATES OF EUROPE.
>> A POINT THAT A LOT OF PEOPLE DON'T UNDERSTAND.
THOSE 5 MILLION REFUGEES THAT HAVE FLOODED ACROSS THE MIDDLE
EAST THAT HAVE DESTABILIZED JORDAN, THEY'VE ALSO
DESTABILIZED POLITICS ACROSS EUROPE.
>> THE EUROPEAN CONTINENT. >> IF YOU'RE LOOKING AT THE RISE
OF THESE POPULIST LEADERS, THIS DIDN'T HAPPEN IN A VACUUM.
THIS WAS, IN PART, BECAUSE OF OUR INACTION -- NOT AMERICA, THE
WEST'S INACTION IN SYRIA. >> REFUGEES FROM SUBSAHARA AND
AFRICA. AND LIBA WE UNCORKED AFRICA, SO
ALL THESE REFUGEES -- AND SYRIA. THIS HAS DESTABILIZED THE OTHER
UNITED STATES OF THE WORLD. I'M A BIG BELIEVER TWO YOU STATE
ARE BETTER THAN ONE. IF THE EU WERE TO FRACTURE, THAT
HAS IMPORTANT STRATEGIC IMPLICATIONS FOR US.
DOES THIS MEAN WE NEED TO TAKE OVER SYRIA?
NO. THIS CAUTIOUS APPROACH IS VERY
WISE. >> CERTAINLY SENDS A MESSAGE.
I REMEMBER READING A COLUMN OF YOURS IN 2003.
YOU WENT UP TO DAMASCUS, IF I'M NOT MISTAKEN.
YOU FOUND A SURPRISINGLY PRO-AMERICAN ATTITUDE IN
DAMASCUS. >> RIGHT.
>> PEOPLE OF DAMASCUS AND PEOPLE OF SYRIA HAVE FELT ABANDONED
OVER THE PAST FIVE, SIX, SEVEN YEARS.
>> THOSE ARE REALLY IMPORTANT ELEMENTS IN THIS.
BUT THE LARGE ROMAN NUMERAL ONE MESSAGE IS THE WRAP ON BARACK
OBAMA WAS THAT HE WASN'T TOUGH ENOUGH.
HE WOULD NOT ACT. TRUMP HAS MADE IT CLEAR, I WILL
ACT. AND THE OTHER FACTOR IN ALL OF
THIS, IT WAS DONE QUICKLY. >> YEAH, RIGHT AWAY.
>> AND ANY ONE OF -- DAVID IGNATIUS, YOU ALL KNOW, THE
MILITARY WILL SIT AROUND AND SAY WE WANT A PLAN.
WE NEED MORE SATELLITE PHOTOS. WE HAVE TO SET UP THE TARGETS.
GIVE US JUST ANOTHER WEEK OR ANOTHER MONTH.
AND SOMEONE SAID DON'T SCREW AROUND WITH THIS.
WE'RE GOING TO ACT. >> AND THERE WAS A SEAMLESSNESS
TO IT, VERY EARLY IN THIS PRESIDENCY.
>> WILL WE GET LEVERAGE OUT OF THIS, VIS-A-VIS, IRANIANS AND
RUSSIANS, FOR A DIPLOMATIC SOLUTION?
I DON'T WANT AMERICA TO TAKE OVER THIS PROBLEM.
NO ONE IN AMERICA DOES. WILL WE INCREASE OUR LEVERAGE TO
ACTUALLY ENGINEER SOMETHING GOING FORWARD?
I DON'T KNOW. >> WE SRNL KNOW THE STATUS QUO
WAS UNACCEPTABLE. DAVID IGNATIUS, YOU WERE TALKING
ABOUT THE TIMING BEFORE. YOU SAID IT'S A VERY MEASURED
ATTACK BUT, MORE IMPORTANTLY, THE TIMELINESS OF IT.
THEY MOVED QUICKLY. >> THIS CHEMICAL WEAPONS
HAPPENED TUESDAY. BY THURSDAY NIGHT 59 CRUISE
MISSILES WERE FIRED FROM TWO WAR SHIPS IN THE EASTERN
MEDITERRANEAN. >> THERE YOU GO.
>> TAKING OUT THE AIR FIELD WHERE THE WEAPONS WERE LAUNCHED.
DECISIVE USE OF AMERICAN POWER. I HATE TO SAY IT BUT IT'S LIKE
WHAT RUSSIA DID WHEN IT INTERVENED IN SEPTEMBER 2015.
IT SHOWS THAT POWER CAN BE USED QUICKLY AND DECISIVELY.
GENERAL MATTIS, SECRETARY OF DEFENSE, IS OF ALL THE FOUR
STARS IN THE PENTAGON THE PERSON WHO WAS MOST CONSISTENTLY
RECOMMENDING DO IT, SIR. DO IT.
MOVE WITH ENOUGH TROOPS. GET IT DONE.
HE SAID THAT IN TORA BORA, IN FALLUJAH AND NOW SAID IT IN
DEALING WITH THIS PROBLEM. >> LET'S BRING IN SECRETARY OF
DEFENSE WILLIAM COHEN. WAS THIS THE RIGHT MOVE AND HOW
WOULD YOU ADVISE THE PRESIDENT ON WHAT TO EXPECT NEXT?
>> IT CERTAINLY WAS THE RIGHT MOVE.
THE QUESTION IS, IT'S GOOD THAT XI JINPING IS IN FLORIDA WITH
THE PRESIDENT. YOU WOULD TURN TO SUN SUU WHO
WOULD SAY TACTICS WITHOUT A STRATEGY IS THE NOISE BEFORE
DEFEAT. WE'VE HAD A TACTICAL STRIKE AND
THE IMPORTANT THING IS, TO PUT IT IN A BROADER CONTEXT, WHAT IS
THE OVERALL STRATEGY FOR DEALING WITH SYRIA, RUSSIA AND NORTH
KOREA? WHAT'S HAPPENING IS THEY'RE
PUTTING TOGETHER A COMPREHENSIVE STRATEGY AND NOT JUST LOOK AT
THIS AS A SIMPLE STRIKE AND SENDING A SIGNAL.
MORE TO COME. UNLESS YOU KNOW WHAT THE MORE TO
COME IS GOING TO BE. I THINK IT'S AN IMPORTANT
STATEMENT TO MAKE. I THINK CERTAINLY IT GETS THE
ATTENTION OF THE RUSSIANS. BY THE WAY, I WOULD SEEK TO
BRING ABOUT A DIPLOMATIC SOLUTION IN THIS CONTEXT THAT IT
IS TIME TO EMBARRASS PRESIDENT PUTIN.
HE WANTS RESPECT. THAT IS THE ONE THING HE HAS
BEEN BARKING ABOUT AS SUCH, I GET NO RESPECT.
HE WANTS RESPECT. WE SHOULD NOT GIVE IT TO HIM.
HE HAS ENABLED ASSAD TO CARRY OUT THESE HEINOUS CRIMES.
HE IS EQUALLY RESPONSIBLE FOR THAT.
I THINK WHAT WE HAVE TO DO IS CONTINUE TO POINT OUT THAT
RUSSIA IS NOW SUPPORTING A CRIMINAL OPERATION.
BEING CRIMINAL IN ITSELF BY SUPPORTING IT.
I THINK THAT COMBINATION WITH OTHER ECONOMIC MEASURES WILL
HELP BRING ABOUT AT LEAST AN ABILITY TO NEGOTIATE A SOLUTION.
>> JOE, THE RESPONSIBILITY THAT PUTIN HOLDS HERE, ISN'T THAT
SOMETHING WE NEED TO HEAR FROM TRUMP HERE AT SOME POINT?
>> NO DOUBT ABOUT IT. AND I DO, THOUGH, THINK THERE
WERE SO MANY THINGS THAT HAPPENED STRATEGICALLY LAST
NIGHT THAT I WANT TO FOLLOW UP ON WHAT THE SECRETARY SAID.
WE DID SEND A MESSAGE, MR. SECRETARY, TO SYRIA AND ASSAD.
WE ALSO SENT A MESSAGE, OF COURSE, TO THE CHINESE.
>> YES. >> BUT WE ALSO SENT A MESSAGE TO
VLADIMIR PUTIN, ONE THAT I'VE BEEN CALLING FOR, FOR SOME
PERIOD OF TIME, WHEN PRESIDENT OBAMA WAS WRINGING HIS HANDS
ABOUT CRIMEA. I ALWAYS THOUGHT THE BEST THING
TO DO WOULD BE TO RUN MILITARY OPERATIONS IN POLAND AND KEEP
RUNNING THEM, AND KEEP BUILDING UP THOSE FORCES.
AGAIN, BECAUSE IT DOES, AT THE END OF THE DAY, COME DOWN TO THE
FACT THAT HE WANTS RESPECT, THE FACT THATHAT RUSSIAN FOREIGN POY
HAS BEEN RUN ON RESENTMENT NOW SINCE CHRISTMAS DAY 1991.
>> JOE, YOU AND I HAVE BEEN ON THE SAME PAGE ON THIS.
THREE YEARS AGO I WAS CALLING FOR THE ESTABLISHMENT OF A SAFE
ZONE SO THAT PUTIN AND ASSAD COULDN'T, QUOTE, WEAPONIZE THOSE
INNOCENT PEOPLE AND SEND THEM SCURRYING INTO EUROPE TO TRY TO
DESTABILIZE OUR EUROPEAN ALLIES. THIS HAS BEEN LONG IN THE
MAKING. WE HAVE WAITED A LONG TIME
BEFORE TAKING ACTION. I THINK IT'S A VERY POSITIVE
THING. I HOPE IT'S NOT JUST A ONE-SHOT
PROPOSITION BUT RATHER -- AND I HAVE CONFIDENCE OF THIS -- THAT
SECRETARY MATTIS IS SOMEONE WHO UNDERSTANDS THE NEED THAT YOU
HAVE A COMPREHENSIVE APPROACH AND YOU'VE ANTICIPATED ALREADY
WHAT THE IRANIANS MIGHT DO, WHAT THE RUSSIANS MIGHT DO AND HAVE
CON CONTINGENCY PLANS IN OPERATION TO RESPOND TO ANYTHING
THOSE IN THE REGION MIGHT DO. >> MR. SECRETARY, BOB WOODWARD
IS HERE AND HAS A QUESTION FOR YOU.
>> SIR, HI. HOW ARE YOU?
AS SECRETARY OF DEFENSE, THERE ARE NOT TOO MANY PEOPLE WHO
REMEMBER OPERATION DESERT FOX IN 1998.
>> RIGHT. >> WHEN PRESIDENT CLINTON AND
YOU SAID, OKAY, WE'RE GOING TO ATTACK SADDAM HUSSEIN IN IRAQ.
AND AS I RECALL, IT WAS 70 HOURS OF ATTACKS, 350, MUCH BIGGER
THAN WHAT PRESIDENT TRUMP DID
YESTERDAY. >> 78 HOURS OF ATTACKS.
>> OKAY. I'M SORRY.
IMPRECISION. THE QUESTION IS, SHOULD
PRESIDENT TRUMP DO MORE? BECAUSE THERE ARE OTHER AIR
FIELDS THERE THAT COULD BE ATTACKED IN THE SAME WAY AND, AS
I UNDERSTAND IT, THE PRESENTATION TO HIM WAS IF YOU
ATTACK SIX OF THESE, THE BIG ONES, YOU CAN, FOR PRACTICAL
PURPOSES, ELIMINATE ASSAD'S AIR POWER, AT LEAST TEMPORARILY.
SHOULD THEY TAKE ANOTHER SQUEEZE HERE OR SHOULD THERE BE MORE
ATTACKS? >> I THINK THEY HAVE TO PAUSE
FOR THE MOMENT, QUOTING THE CHINESE STRATEGIST AGAIN.
HE SAID BE PRUDENT BUT NOT HESITANT.
I THINK THE PRUDENCE COMES IN TO SAY LET'S LOOK AT THE DAMAGE
THAT'S BEEN DONE, THE REACTION THAT'S COMING BACK.
IF THEY'RE GOING TO ESCALATE THEN WE'RE GOING TO MOVE EVEN
MORE QUICKLY AND DO MUCH MORE DAMAGE.
SO I WOULD SAY BE PRUDENT ON THIS.
YOU MADE YOUR POINT. WE'RE NOT WALKING AWAY FROM THE
WORLD BECAUSE THE WORLD IS NEVER GOING TO BE WALKING AWAY FROM
US. SO I THINK THIS IS A MAJOR STEP
FORWARD. BECAUSE THE PRESIDENT, TO THIS
DATE, HAS ARTICULATED AN ISOLATIONIST POLICY.
OR AT LEAST A RETRENCHMENT POLICY.
AND THAT'S WHAT OUR ALLIES IN THE ASIA-PACIFIC REGION SAW WHEN
WE KILLED TPP. THAT'S WHAT THE CHINESE SAW.
THEY WERE VERY PLEASED WE KILLED THE TPPP.
ALLIES IN THE REGION SAW US AS WALKING AWAY AND DISENGAGING.
NOW I THINK THEY'RE GOING TO GET A DIFFERENT SIGNAL THAT
PRESIDENT TRUMP, WHO ALSO TALKED ABOUT LET'S COME HOME, AMERICA,
LET'S HAVE NATION BUILDING AT HOME.
YOU CAN'T HAVE NATION BUILDING AT HOME WHEN THE WORLD IS COMING
UNDONE. YOU HAVE TO REMAIN ENGAGED.
I THINK THIS SENT A SIGNAL TO THE SYRIANS, RUSSIANS, CHINESE,
IRANIANS AND TO EVERYONE IN THE REGION THAT WE'RE NOT
DISENGAGING. WE'RE MORE ENGAGED THAN EVER
BEFORE. >> DAVID IGNATIUS?
>> MR. SECRETARY, SECRETARY OF STATE REX TILLERSON GOES TO
MOSCOW NEXT WEEK, PROBABLY TO TALK WITH PRESIDENT PUTIN.
WHAT SHOULD TILLERSON SAY TO PUTIN SPECIFICALLY ABOUT SYRIA?
>> I THINK HE SHOULD SAY YOU AGREED TO HELP IN SYRIA.
YOU ESTABLISHED BASES THERE. YOU PROTECTED YOUR CLIENT STATE
AS SUCH. YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR NOT
SUPERVISING YOUR CLIENT STATE. YOU PROMISED TO GET THE CHEMICAL
WEAPONS OUT. YOU DIDN'T GET THEM OUT.
AND NOW WE'RE GOING TO HOLD YOU TO IT.
AND THIS IS GOING TO BE A VERY BAD RELATIONSHIP WITH RUSSIA
UNLESS WE FIND THAT WE'RE GOING TO BE WORKING WITH A WILLING
PARTNER WHO WILL KEEP HIS END OF THE BARGAIN.
I THINK IT SHOULD BE THAT SUBJECT WITH THE PRESIDENT.
THERE ARE OTHER ISSUES, OF COURSE, CRIMEA, WHAT'S GOING ON
IN THE BALTICS, OTHER AGGRESSION ACTIONS THAT HAVE TO CEASE.
IN TERMS OF SYRIA, THAT'S THE MESSAGE I WOULD WANT TO CARRY

Explaining the Mandela Effect (Prepare to have your brain scrambled!) - Duration: 18:13.
"What if I told you everything you know is a lie."
This is a line made famous by The Matrix film.
But, what if I told you that line was never actually said in the movie.
Despite some arguing that this line originated in 2011, over a decade after The Matrix was
released, many remain utterly convinced that it was said by the character Morpheus in the
original film.
This is a Mandela Effect in action.
Before we delve too deep into explaining the Mandela Effect, I urge you to go and watch
my previous video showcasing three worthy examples of the Mandela Effect, if you have
not done so already.
This phenomenon is truly bizarre: the concept that so many unconnected people, strangers,
can remember a nonexistent event so identically to one another.
First, it is necessary to clarify what the Mandela Effect, if real, suggests.
It is, in essence, an effect without a cause: after all, how can a memory be remembered
when there was nothing to cause that memory to form in the first place.
It defies our every perception of reality to merely even entertain the notion that such
a fundamental aspect of our knowledge - a clearly recalled memory - is, in fact, not
true.
It is simple, then, to dismiss all Mandela Effects as confabulations: a disturbance of
memory, produced by an unconscious fabrication or misinterpretation of oneself or the world.
Yet, this is a frustrating and reductionist explanation, for there are so many thousands
of people who remember the comedian Sinbad starring in a genie movie; who swear to have
seen Nelson Mandela's funeral on television before it happened; who recall Da Vinci's
painting of The Last Supper having goblets in it; and many others.
Materialistic explanations, limited to our current understanding of the world around
us, serve as blanket assertions.
Such sweeping claims are always dangerous to make: whilst they may at times be correct,
more often than not the stance of "it cannot be because it cannot" lacks detailed explanation
beyond an assertion, thus collapsing any further potential discussion.
Such an explanation, then, does not follow the standards of appropriate scientific enquiry
into a given phenomenon.
As mentioned before, it is almost impossible to explain the Mandela Effect in terms of
cause and effect; so, understandably, it's safer - and easier - to dismiss it altogether.
If one is determined to keep to the material universe as we know it, there is one viable
explanation.
However, it does involve aliens.
Many people who claim to be alien abductees report being shown images, and even films,
that never existed whilst on board alien spacecraft.
Could Mandela Effects be the suppressed memories of possible abductees of their time on board
an alien spacecraft?
Whilst an extraterrestrial explanation does provide a cause to the effect, it does fall
into the inevitable trap of being indefensible due to a lack of precise, non-testimonial
evidence.
However, if we open ourselves up to what is scientifically viable, the interference of
time travelers could be a potential explanation for the Mandela Effect.
Indeed, scientists have suggested that people can travel back in time through a traversable
wormhole.
Such wormholes, in theory, would bend space and time, allowing for a person to go back
in time.
Thereby, Mandela Effects could be caused either directly or indirectly by time travelers,
indirectly being an example of a butterfly effect.
These changes, whilst forgotten by the majority of the population, are retained by some.
It is these people who experience Mandela Effects, which are memories based on remnant
memories of the world before the change.
However, this does not make complete sense.
For, if space and time are changed, why would a minority of people still be remembering
an event that now never happened?
This would be akin to saying that particular molecules in matter can exist in two states
at one time.
Space and time, as we know it, cannot be altered once an effect has been caused by an event.
Water molecules may be frozen into ice, but those molecules are ice even if you put them
in a glass of water.
It is only when they change back into water, changing state, that they become something
else.
An event causes someone to remember it.
Someone travels back in time to change that event.
Now that the event is changed, so will be the memory.
An observer of an event can only remember the event as it is observed - not an alternate
event, even if it did once exist.
There can be no remnants in this situation.
That is, unless cause and effect do not matter.
At this point, one can begin to question the very fundamentals of cause and effect.
The proposition of the Axiom of Causality is that everything in the universe has a cause
and is thus an effect of that cause.
This is accepted science.
However, there have been those who have questioned this scientific absolute.
It is this questioning which may provide an opening for the seemingly impossibility of
the Mandela Effect.
The analytical psychiatrist Carl Jung put forward the notion of synchronicity in the
1950s.
This is the idea that events do not always need to have a causal relationship.
Indeed, some seemingly meaningless coincidences, are in fact "meaningful" despite having
no obvious thread which connects them.
Jung's belief was that, just as events may be connected by causality, they may also be
connected by meaning.
Events connected by meaning need not have an explanation in terms of causality.
Therefore, these "meaningful coincidences" have an effect upon the universe without having
a cause.
The notion of synchronicity can, then, be used in regards to the Mandela Effect.
We could interpret these false memories as a series of "meaningful coincidences",
that have only now become widely apparent, through the exchange of information on the
Internet and our societies' high level of interconnectivity.
According to Jung's philosophical concept, these so-called Mandela Effects can be interpreted
as an example of large-scale synchronicity, whose meaning and relationship is yet to become
apparent.
Synchronicity may explain such things as letters changing, or even phrases in the Bible becoming
different.
However, it is difficult to explain how, for example, a whole event or a movie, remembered
so vividly by so many, may only exist as an acausal memory.
This attempts to stretch the boundaries of synchronicity too far.
It seems, therefore, that an additional explanation is required.
Thus, we must journey deeper into the rabbit hole.
Another of Carl Jung's theories revolves around the idea of a "collective unconscious".
That is to say that people are not merely born a blank slate, but rather that there
are pre-existing forces which shape our memories and ideas that have extended across the history
of our species.
Edgar Mitchell, the sixth man of the moon, and PhD graduate in aeronautics and astronautics
from MIT, has expanded on Jung's theory by theorising the idea of a quantum hologram.
The quantum hologram is not a hologram in the sense of a computer program.
Rather, it is proposed to be the manner in which we see the world around us.
Mitchell has theorised that our consciousness operates in a different way than one would
expect: we do not see through our eyes, but through our minds.
Our eyes receive stimuli from the outside world, which is then relayed to our brains
in order for a mirror image of our physical surroundings to be produced.
This is the quantum hologram.
In order for us to see the things we see the way we do, we ourselves have to send out a
signal which resonates with our environment.
Once this signal returns to us, imbued with information, the three dimensional hologram
is constructed by our brains.
This is similar to the way that a high-powered telescope or MRI machine sends out a laser
or signal to help construct an image that we can understand.
Mitchell argues the mind does the same thing with our surroundings: without this visual
representation in our minds, the hologram, we would not be able to make sense of our
surroundings.
Mitchell further argues that our minds work as an information processing unit, which stores
and retrieves memory information from the zero point field.
A quantum mechanical term, the zero point field refers to non-excited matter which is
present, at the atomic level, everywhere.
After all, at the centre of every proton, the major building block of an atom, is a
vacuum.
Zero point fields exist within these vacuums.
In this field, all things resonate with one another exchanging information, imperceptibly.
Simply put, the zero point field is a universal information bank, which exists regardless
of time and place.
Admittedly this a gross over simplification of Mitchell's fascinating and thought-provoking
theory.
If you are interested in learning more about this, I urge you to do your own further research,
starting with the links which can be found in my footnotes.
To summarise very briefly then the quantum hologram theory, the world we see is created
in our minds from the resonants received, via the medium of our eye and other sensory
receptors, from the communal information dump of the zero point field.
Once interpreted, this information is returned and stored once again in this universal information
bank.
Applying this to the Mandela Effect, one can begin to make more sense of the phenomenon.
In the example of Biblical passages, if enough people were to remember it incorrectly, the
basis of the zero point field in this manner could be changed.
That is to say that future users of the zero point field may retrieve incorrect information.
Similarly, in the case of Nelson Mandela's death being remembered by some in the 1980s,
a personal misinterpretation of, for example, Steve Biko's death - another South African
anti-apartheid activist who died in police custody in 1977 - could have altered the zero
point field.
The concept of a communal information bank seems to explain the Mandela Effect tidily
enough.
However, it does not account for why so many people would experience the same, seemingly
irrelevant, nonexistent event over and over again, thus polluting the zero point field.
Here, Jung's concept of synchronicity is useful: seemingly meaningless, acausal coincidences
may actually possess a hidden meaning.
Those who recall the same Mandela Effects, engaging in collective remembering of a fiction,
could share a meaning which we are yet to comprehend.
Another possible explanation involves the work of prestigious scientists, like Stephen
Hawking and Brian Greene.
They have put forward the idea that the universe is not singular, but is in fact part of an
infinite multiverse.
In this scenario, every possible outcome is happening concurrently in an infinite series
of parallel universes.
In one universe Shaquille O'Neal is cast to play the role of Shazam the genie.
In another, he is cast to play Kazaam the genie.
In another again the comedian Sinbad is Kazaam.
And, in a fourth, Sinbad plays the genie Shazam.
Every possible outcome occurs.
These universes have been theorized to comprise all sorts of shapes and sizes.
From that of a series of layers akin to the slices of a loaf of bread, to something similar
to a human brain, where every universe is connected to one another like a series of
neurons.
In these universes, not only have alternative histories and events been postulated to exist,
but also there being completely different sets of Laws of Physics.
Thus, the Mandela Effect being memories from a different, or many different universes,
would fit neatly into a multiverse explanation.
Yet, it does not explain how some remember events from other universes, whilst others
do not.
Many multiverse theoreticians state that it is possible for the different universes to
interact with and be connected to one another.
This, in effect, is where we can combine all of the theories stated before into one potential
explanation of the Mandela Effect.
Perhaps, as Mitchell has proposed, we are resonating with our environment at a quantum
level, in order to process information as a three dimensional hologram in our minds.
But, our environment is itself a multiverse, made up of many universes interacting and
resonating with other universes in the same way that our minds do with the environment.
Thus, some people resonate with other universes at times, gathering information and experiencing
reality as it is in another plane of existence.
This could happen in the same way that two radios can emit the same signal from different
places.
And, since memories exist in the zero point field, which itself exists, in theory, across
all universes - ignoring space and time - we remember the same things across all universes
as well.
Why only a certain number of people remember the same thing is then left to Jung's synchronicity:
the meaning of the meaningful coincidences remaining allusive.
It is important to note now, that it is impossible for this explanation to be proven with conclusive
evidence.
This is merely the presentation a hypothesis for a phenomenon which cannot be thoroughly
proved or disproved.
The ideas discussed in this video have been developed upon a layman's understanding
of advanced sciences like quantum mechanics and astrophysics.
As such, I encourage you to do further reading to learn more for yourself.
Regardless, I hope that this video has, at the very least, presented thought-provoking
ideas which can promote further discussion on the enigma that is the Mandela Effect.
Thank you for watching.
If you enjoyed this, please give this video a thumbs up to let me know.
And, if you haven't already, why not watch my previous video on the Mandela Effect, in
which I discuss three worthy examples in detail.
Remember, the more you know, the more there is to fear.

How to Earn Charlemagne Cross - Battlefield 1 - Duration: 3:34.
Hey guys, this is Eidolon Mirage with some Battlefield 1 gameplay on PS4.
Today we're earning a medal called Charlemagne Cross, with a focus on Rush.
The first objective is to play 1 round.
Rush is a great game mode and if you haven't tried it out, I HIGHLY recommend it.
Up until Operations came along, it was the BEST game mode for experiencing all out war!
If you want to experience two armies clashing into each other head to head, Rush is the
game mode for you.
It's a linear game mode where one team pushes forward to plant bombs on the objectives while
the other team defends.
Rush is a staple in the Battlefield franchise and has been the only game mode that delivers
a true battle experience, until Operations came along.
Operations was done so well in this game, I think it could've replaced Rush.
They are practically the same thing as far as pushing forward and gaining territory,
but either way, they are both a blast and a must try for Battlefielders.
We were defending this round and lost the first game, but that's okay, because we're
just getting warmed up to the game mode.
Here's where it counts, because the second objective is to win 1 round.
This game was awesome.
It was well-fought from both sides, and I even won it for us at the end.
I decided to try something challenging, so I'm running the Scout class with the SMLE
MKIII Infantry.
It's a bolt-action rifle with no optics, so this is probably the most common World
War I like weapon that there was.
Without a scope, it's difficult to judge distance and get that headshot.
Aiming above the enemy's head and factoring in that bullet drop is so much more of a challenge
because your iron sights are now covering up the target and you can't even see what
your shooting at!
With that being said, I love the feeling of the kick and the overall vibe of this thing.
Combined with this game mode, it feels super realistic and that's hard to accomplish
in a video game.
I'm also using the Frommer Stop, which I used almost exclusively to earn Lightning
Cross Order.
It's a good sidearm, but I'm gonna switch back to a more powerful handgun like a revolver
once I get 100 kills with it.
So here's the end.
They have 0 soldiers left, but the telegraph is armed, so I swoop in there and get the
disarm for the win.
I took a grenade at the end, but that's part of it, and it was well worth it to move
on to the next objective, which is to arm 5 Telegraphs.
For this, you just need to make sure you're on the attacking team.
I switched back to Assault for some more firepower, and it served me pretty well.
One thing to note about this objective is that it IS individually awarded, unlike the
third objective for Avian Cross.
This means YOU need to be the one to arm the telegraph, so rush in, get up close and personal,
and arm it yourself.
This is why I went with the Assault class.
You could also try Medic if you think you'd be better served with med bags.
I preferred to clear out the area with my AT Grenades so I could rush on in.
Another strategy is to charge in as soon as possible before the enemy even has time to
get there.
This is risky because you're potentially a lone soldier on the front lines, but it
can be very rewarding since they may not expect it.
You don't have to actually protect it and get the destroy, although it's worth 750
points if you do.
We steamrolled 'em these two games.
My guys were doing a fantastic job of pushing and defending the telegraph once we got there,
and it earned me Charlemagne Cross.
I had a blast with this medal, and I'm sure you guys will, too.
Let me know your thoughts.
Like if you like, and subscribe if you like.
I hope you guys enjoy the tactics and tips, and I hope to see you on the Battlefield.

China And Russia Replace US Dollar As Reserve Currency - Duration: 4:08.
China And Russia Replace US Dollar As Reserve Currency
Two years ago, ICBC, the largest and most valuable bank in the world by total assets
and market capitalization, was planning to open a clearing bank in Russia for trade settlements
in Yuan (Renminbi) and Rubles.
ICBC�s business involvement include electricity, mining, chemical, oil and gas, telecommunication,
retail, machinery and metallurgy sector in Russia.
It makes perfect sense to get rid of US dollar.
Why must China and Russia conduct their business transactions using their rival�s currency?
The US dollar is so strong because 80% of world trade take place in US dollar.
Besides military might and power, the high demand for US dollar is also driven by perception
that it�s the safest currency simply because US is also the world�s biggest economy.
Last month, China and Russia decided to break their dependency on US dollar in their bilateral
trade and investment.
Bank of Russia, the Russia�s central bank, opened its first overseas office in Beijing
on March 14.
A week later, ICBC (Industrial and Commercial Bank of China) officially opens for business
in Moscow � as a clearing bank for Yuan / Renminbi.
�Financial regulatory authorities of China and Russia have signed a series of major agreements,
which marks a new level of financial cooperation.
The launching of Renminbi clearing services in Russia will further expand local settlement
business and promote financial cooperation between the two countries.� � said Dmitry
Skobelkin, deputy governor of the Central Bank of the Russian Federation.
With the creation of the clearing banks, they enable the two countries to further increase
bilateral trade and investment while decreasing their dependence on the US dollar.
At the end of 2015, the Russian central bank announced the inclusion of the Yuan / Renminbi
in its national foreign exchange reserves, making it Russia�s officially recognized
reserve currency.
More importantly, the �de-dollarization� cooperation between Beijing and Moscow is
also part of anti-money laundering and anti-terrorism efforts.
However, amusingly, by creating a huge pool of Yuan / Renminbi liquidity in Russia, it
appears China is creating a workaround solution to the sanction-hit Kremlin � a backdoor
economic relief.
Coincidently, the setup of clearing banks at each other�s side was timed in such manner
that Russian Ministry of Finance is to launch US$1 billion worth of Yuan bonds.
The bond issuance, scheduled to take place in one or two months, could be used as test
bed for Moscow to raise more money in the future.
Suddenly, Beijing is seen as providing a new breath of life to Russia�s struggling economy.
Screw the U.S. for slapping Russia with an �indefinite� sanction for its annexation
of Crimea.
And with President Trump screaming, whining and bitching about China�s currency manipulation,
the U.S. could do something as crazy as sanctions on China too.
