Great article! I would be surprised if one in a hundred Americans knew how seismic a shift has happened in the world order/financial systems. I guess any country can bully the world for only so long. Tough times ahead looks like. Get hard assets while you can!

The more I follow these events the more it strikes me that Ukraine is America's Suez 1956 moment. Back then, we Brits still thought we were top dog and sent in our troops to stop the damned "wogs" in Egypt from taking back their own canal. We were soon read the Riot Act by the new kid on the block, the US, and firmly and humiliatingly put in our (new) place. That is why the US is so insanely angry about Putin's moves: they know in their hearts that this is the passing of the baton to another team.
