Episode Date: April 19, 2024

https://linktr.ee/PBNLinks

You're listening to P.B.N. You're playing back the stability. Happy Friday morning, PBN family. Just as Dave Jones predicted a few days ago in the signal chat, he said Friday was the day for Israel. He said Friday be the day for Israel. And the man was right. The man was right. The power of allies, the power of groups, the power of communication, PBN family,

the relationships that the host and I have, the information and expertise that we share with one another, and most of the time share with you. It's a reminder, you know, of the power. When you think about people in an SHTF or collapse sort of situation, you're often thinking like gun power, you know what I mean? Manpower. you're often thinking like gunpower, you know what I mean? Manpower. But there's a lot more to it than that, you know? There's a heck of a lot more to it than that. Don't even get me started on support, right? Like, don't even get me started on the support. Well, the support, you know, the reason, in fact, that Dave Jones, and I guess I can divulge this to you now, The reason, in fact, that Dave Jones, and I guess I can divulge this to you now, the reason that Dave Jones broke it all down today or broke it all down for me a couple of days ago is because I don't always talk about this stuff on air because, you know, to me, it's personal, number one, and especially in the moment. For security purposes and OPSEC purposes, I'm not a big fan of it, detailing it.

But my wife set out on essentially a business trip the day after the missile strike, the original missile strike from Iran. So you can imagine how the intrepid commander's been feeling all week. She's been gone all week. Guess what day she's coming home. Yes, exactly. Travel day today. So there's a reason, and that's not the only reason, but there's a reason you haven't been hearing from me.

You know what I mean? There's a reason that there was an I Am Liberty rerun. A bunch of reasons. You know, the world of ready is another huge reason. The world of ready is, well, it's ready. The world of ready is finally ready, folks. And filling out information and creating book descriptions and all that kind of stuff is a reminder of what this book is really meant to be. But not to get off topic just yet, you'll hear plenty about that. This is the world we're living in right now, right? For those unaware, you may be unaware, it's not big news because the strike was very limited.

But Israel struck Iran overnight. And, you know, my gut feeling, and again, I could be wrong, but my gut feeling... My gut feeling is, you know, we have to punch each other in the stomach. My gut feeling is, you know, we have to punch each other in the stomach. I really do feel like that may be what is going on here, you know. I think that Israel is going to wind up winning in this sort of gut check exercise. I really do. And that's what I feel like it is. I feel like it's a saving of face

in the face of all parties, right? So in other words, I get generals and important people from the Revolutionary Guard. That's Israel talking. Tehran says, well, for the world, because the world's watching, right? Because remember, these countries care what the world thinks, unlike Joe Biden, who does almost nothing. It looks disheveled and depressed and everything. Other countries care what the world sees and what the world thinks. And they care what their allies see and think and what their enemies see and think. seeing thing. So, you know, Tehran says, okay, well, we'll show you. Now, the question, of course, is, what if something crazy happened in all 300 of those drones and missiles made it through Israel, right? Made it to Israel. To me, it seems to me like Iran knew we're going to send a force, but it's not a force they can't deal with, right?

Our burden is not too much for them to bear. They were essentially humiliated, you know, if the purpose wasn't to the purpose wasn't to be, to have all their weapons shot out of the sky, they were essentially humiliated on the world stage, to some degree, you have to think of it that way, but maybe in their head it was, look, we can reach you, we can touch you, maybe if we hit you with a serious, or maybe it was, maybe it really was, Iran saying, we're going to give you a serious attack. This is a serious attack, cyber attack, and then followed by, you know, serious amounts of missiles. And maybe they were surprised at, wow, we, we did almost nothing. Because it is

kind of impressive. There's no way, you know. All that said, Israel said, you know, we're going to do something. Now, what I don't know is this strike seemed very, very limited. It seemed very, very focused on a particular military target adjacent to the nuclear facility, from what I've read. And, you know, to me, it reminds me a lot of this. This was my, when I read this, when I read the story of what Israel did, what came to mind, and I don't know how many of you out there watch combat sports. Probably a lot. It's very popular, but we watch a lot of combat sports in my household. We love it. 1FC, baby. Forget about the UFC. 1FC is where it's at. But anyhow, on Prime Video Free, yeah, you can watch 1FC on Prime Video Free. They're like every other

weekend they got an event. All around the world. Fighters from the whole world. Anyway, around the world, fighters from the whole world. Anyway, if you see two people, particularly two people who are dominant in striking, and those strikers are going against each other, you'll notice in the beginning of the fight, they don't come out just throwing bombs. A lot of times, they'll come out with their hands up, and they'll move into each other slowly and they'll their heads they'll be conducting head movement right heads will be going back and forth they'll be throwing a lot of feints they'll be pretending to throw uh jabs and and crosses you know you'll see sometimes as much as a full minute i've seen it go even longer, I remember the fight between Anderson Silva and, I'm not going to remember this guy's name right now, Anderson Silva, he's a legend,

an MMA legend, Anderson Silva, but the guy I'm thinking about is also, and he hit, he front kicked this guy in the face and knocked him out, and I think it was the first strike of the, no, it wasn't the first strike of the fight, but it was one of those fights where it was just a feeling out process, and a lot of striking bouts, a lot of battles like that start with a tremendous feeling out process, man, Like it's just this consistent, throw a little jab here, see what he does. I'll take a step forward, I'll stomp my lead foot down and see what he does. I'll faint a right cross and see what he does. I'll throw a leg kick and see how he moves.

And see which side he circles to. And see what his head movement's all about. And see what his distance is. And see how close he'll let me get. And how close he moves. And see which side he circles to. And see what his head movement is all about. And see what his distance is. And see how close he'll let me get. And how close he'll get to me. And all these little micro calculations. PBN family. And once the fighters get this dialed in.

That's when the. That's when the real fight actually starts. You know what I mean? So. What I see I mean? So. What I see with all this striking. Is just that. I'm sorry. What I see with all these airstrikes.

Between Iran and Israel. These two airstrikes. To me it looks like just that. It looks like. Two fighters feeling each other out. You know. They're not fighting yet. They're not fighting yet. They're feeling each other out. You know, they're not fighting yet. They're not fighting yet. They're feeling each other out. They're looking at defenses. They're looking at what

they're going to do if I send 300 drones, what they're going to do if I send a limited airstrike to one of their military bases, how they respond, do they respond? What's the mentality of the leadership when we, when we conduct an attack like this? And now, look, if you're in the military, or if you spent time in the military, this might sound like no duh, right? I don't know. I'm just telling you in my gut, that's what I see between these two nations. I don't see nations, but I was wrong last time. But I don't see nations ready to just bite down on the mouthpiece and start going to war right now.

That's not what I see. It might be close, but it looks to me like we're still filling each other out. We've got to see. We've got to see what we can get away with, what we can't get away with. We've got to see, you know, because remember, the truth of the matter is, Iran's been attacking Israel forever. Right? Iran has had proxies attacking Israel since October.

But this direct conflict, you know... So all that said, push all that nonsense aside. And this is what I want you to think about today, because this is what I'm thinking about today. What are your streams of intelligence worldwide, first and foremost? Are they effective? How are you going to know? And when are you going to know that, oh my God, this thing has gone to the next level and I need to take action? And what does that look like? All right, so who are you listening to?

What are you watching? What do you have on the radio and so on? That'll let you know Iran nuked Israel. You know what I'm saying? I don't think that'll happen. I really don't think that'll happen. I still think mutually assured destruction is a thing, you know. And even if it's not the entire world going up in a nuclear ball of flames,

I think any nation that uses a nuke understands that they're going to get nuked. And look, if the holiest of holy suicide bomber nations, which is Iran, right? The ones with the greatest willingness to essentially sacrifice human life for the cause of Allah. If that nation isn't willing to make that sacrifice, it's hard for me to imagine that any nation is. Because it's the reality, right? Because it's the reality, right? It's also a very important point when you hear the U.S. talk about what they will and won't do for Israel. I was thinking about this on the drive this morning.

The truth is, America will do whatever it has to do to protect Israel. And you might look at that and go, oh, well, that's because we are such good allies with Israel. I don't know if that's why. I mean, I'm sure it has something to do with it. But imagine if Hezbollah takes over Israel. Or imagine if Iran takes over Israel. Or imagine if Iran takes over Israel. In other words, they bashed the military enough over the years that they can make their way in and hostile takeover, maybe multiple factions. Imagine what happens. What do they gain control of, PBN family? Think about it. Raise your hands, class. What could a group like Hamas, Hezbollah,

the Houthis, or even Iran get their hands on that sets Israel apart from other nations militarily? Correct. Correct. Now they have nukes. It's not a myth of nukes. It's not a reactor. It's not a process for creating nukes. It's not we're three months away from a nuke. It's now we have nukes. Now we have the Israeli nukes, and America can't allow that to happen. So no matter how mad they get at Israel, I think it's important to understand, even if it is an offensive, even if it has nothing to do with defensive strategy, the U.S. has to protect the Israeli interests because, you know, you can't let anybody take over Israel and get their hands on Israeli nukes. But again, back to you. Today's a very good day. You have a lot of motivation to sit down and think to yourself what an interruption in daily operations would look like.

What an emergency interruption in daily operations would look like. Because today is young. It could become a reality. It might be a good headspace to be in, right? What would that look like for you? If you were listening to news, if we popped up on PBN and said, we're not 100% sure, but we're getting news out of somewhere that, you know, Iran is, all proxy factions are striking Israel at this moment, and there's word that Russia has launched ICBMs from their, I don't know,

from their ship in the Red Sea. They do have a ship in the Red Sea. Powers out in Israel, and the enemy is moving in, you know, and Russia's standing guard. This is, you know, this is the World War III scenario everybody's concerned about. And it's terrifying. But it could very much become a reality quick. Right?

So, for me, or this is what I was thinking about this morning. Packing up lunches. You know what I mean? A normal dad, I guess, is packing up lunches and he's like, well, bills to pay, calls to make. I'm thinking, so if we start to get blanketed with cyber attacks, it's probably time to go get the kids. Go pick the kids up early from school and watch the world and see what the hell is going on. But to sit around and wait might not be the best strategy, right? Have everybody splintered all over the area.

So you get back into that process of taking the family. Well, it's basically the reassembling of the family. You always want to stay ahead of that. You always want to stay ahead of the reassembling of the family, right? Like before they go, oh my God, this news is unbelievable and it's going to drive the public insane. And the roads are going to collapse because they're going to be packed and at a standstill because of the chaos. Before all of that, you want to be moving into your assemble the family plan for whatever is going to follow up after that. But at the very least, you want everybody at home.

At the very least, you want everybody back to survival headquarters. Can't conduct a bug out if there's a bunch of people spread out all over. Can't, you know, can't do anything. So today's a good day to walk over that, walk through that in your head. Maybe think about some factors, some trigger points that would make you say, you know what, what's this latter half of school really going to do for my kid today? Is he missing out on something amazing or not? You know what I mean?

And yeah, that's the way you go with it. You could learn a lot from that, and hopefully we don't find ourselves in a position where we need to take advantage of something like that, or not take advantage of it, but deal with something like that. But it's a good time to see what that looks like. Who do you get first? Who do you get second? What happens if getting the first kid or the second kid, the real crazy stuff starts happening and you can't get to the third kid? Do you have a plan in place for that? What about a spouse? Right?

How do you get a spouse home if they're landlocked or traffic locked, right? Do you guys have at least an agreed upon walking route, right? An agreed upon walking route and maybe an alternate walking route to say, nine times out of ten, I'm coming home this way. If you can get a neighbor to watch the kids, you can come meet me so that I'm not traveling alone or whatever. If that's a risk you want to take, I don't know. All of this stuff about the reassembly of the family is far too personal, far too unique to your situation for me to give you

a blanket answer on how to conduct it. I would say, while you are the owner of the best possible operating method, right? You've got to craft that. I would say there are some worst practices, you know. And a worst practice is let's figure it out when it happens. A worst practice is, yeah, let's do it on the fly. Let's try to communicate when all the communication is down. Let's try to travel when the travel routes are swollen and shutting down. Let's try to figure out which way people are going to come home so we can maybe try to meet them or something along those lines. Let's try to figure out who's going to help us if we have a lot of kids or people who need looked after. Let's wait until it happens

before we figure out who those people are that can help us. All of these things can be set aside on a day like today. You can sketch them down, man, on a notepad and say, you know, grandma's going to come over. We're going to drop the kids off at grandma, whatever the situation is. And that's how we're going to deal with that, right? We're going to deal with that. Right? You know, we all pray that this day never comes. We all pray that we never find ourselves in a situation where, oh my God, now I have to gather the family together because the world has changed forever again.

And we don't know what the future will hold. But if a situation like that strikes, man, you better have a plan. You better have a game plan. It's kind of what I'm getting at today, folks. No PBN Daily news set up, none of that kind of stuff. We're talking, I mean, we really are talking, you know, we really are talking about, sorry, I had to get over there in traffic, cops, whole nine yards, you know how it is, we really are talking about these sort of surprise events that we all worry about. And it's a system that can be written down in a book and shared with the family.

And it's not, you know, it's an afternoon. It's an evening sit down to explain the situation. What will come of us, PBN family? What will come of this experience, man? Can we fend off World War III? Is World War III a ploy to keep Joe Biden in office? I can't help but think that, you know what I mean? I can't help but think that all this tension is there as maybe not a primary plan, maybe not an alternate plan, but maybe a contingency plan to say our illegal attacks on Donald Trump to basically accuse him of doing everything and anything he's ever done in his life. Right? And creating some things while we're at it. accuse him of doing everything and anything he's ever done in his life, right? And creating some things while we're at it. If that fails, then we may have to consider keeping Joe Biden in office, you know.

In order to keep Joe Biden in office, we may need to turn the volume up on this world war. Let's turn the volume up in the Middle East. Let's turn the volume up in Ukraine. Let's turn the volume up in the Middle East. Let's turn the volume up in Ukraine. Let's turn the volume up in the Pacific. We've got many options. We've got a whole lot of tuning we can do to drive a nation over the top and say, well, you know, it's really not a good time

for a presidential change right now. If you don't think they're thinking that way, you're not paying attention. And it's not just politicians who are thinking that way, you're not paying attention. And it's not just politicians who are thinking that way, by the way. There are plenty of people driving around in cars around me right now, I'm sure, that are thinking, I don't care what happens, we cannot have Donald Trump as president again. I mean, I've heard people say it. There is no way we can have that man as president again.

And if something like that were to break out, I think the end would justify the means in their head. Wild times, PBN family. Wild, wild times. You know? It is what it is. I am stuck in that world that just is, is a mirror maze. It's like, uh, I don't know, man. It's, it's like looking through a portal into a different dimension. That's what it's like. But it's like that for a lot of Americans, by the way, you know, a lot of Americans have good things going for them. They got a good life. They've

done, you know, the work to make things work. And it's really strange to exist in this world where you look around and you're like, I don't know what tomorrow will hold, but if it's up to me, it's going to be a nice day. So, meanwhile, they look through the portal and they see that so many nations are quibbling and fighting and battling and warring and considering war. And, you know, it's a wild, wild time. And that's just what it is. All you can do is build that base of preparedness and self-sufficiency. Build your networks of people.

I want to go back to where I started before I end this broadcast and just, you know, remind you. This is a time of great anxiety. You have to favor the things that lessen that anxiety. And you guys guys the hosts the conversations i have with the people that i know in the prepping world you know these are the things that really lessen that anxiety level you know prepping does having things in place really does waking up and seeing threats and going well we're ready for that you know what i mean if that happens we're ready for that. The FBI released a statement 11 hours ago, I guess 13 hours ago now that I read this morning about, you know, China's everywhere in the cyber world, in American infrastructure. Again, they've said something again. They've come out and said it again. And this time they said they're ready. I mean, they're readying a devastating blow.

I think it's quote-unquote a devastating blow. I don't have the story in front of me, but I'm almost 99% sure that's what it is. You know, I wrote a... By God's will. Don't forget, I didn't write off-grid survival projects because I'm such a genius that I was like, yeah, the world's gonna need this, I was hired to write that book by a client who I love, and it's been with me a very long time, and, you know, that, that's the full story, like, I i was i was brought in to write that book and i would you know it was a great opportunity and i had a blast writing it and god i garnered a lot of preps off of it as well but uh it wasn't because i saw all this coming you know that i made this

decision so i pushed this book on you guys. I push this book on my Instagram page. I push this book on everybody. Because I know that. In little fits and spurts. Or maybe all at once. Somehow. We're going to be faced with the reality that.

Oh well. I guess that's the situation now, right? I guess the situation is internet's out for a week. I guess the situation is the power grid has been hacked. I guess the situation is, and here's the most alarming one to me, guys. The most alarming one to me is, you know, power gets affected, that's fine. The internet gets affected, that's fine. At least you can understand. My internet ain't working. It's because China's in there. Somebody's in there, right? The power grid isn't working. Okay, we got to deal with that. The one that concerns me the most, the one that scares me the most is water.

Because a consistent stream of low-level cyber attacks on the water system will create something. It will create, it will destroy trust in public water. And they don't have to shut the water off. You understand? And they don't have to shut the water off. You understand? They just need people to die a little bit.

They need us to get so overwhelmed with the cyber attack on water, cyber attack on water, cyber attack on water. Oh, waterborne illness outbreak. Please boil your water. Cyber attack on water. Oh, chemical mix up. You know, they put chemicals into the water in varying degrees to clean it. In Florida, I talk about this many times, but it's worth talking about. In Florida, two, three years ago now, it might have been 2020, I think it was an Iranian-backed hacker or something like that.

I can't remember all the details. It's been a while. But the important details is that they basically raised the amount of lye going into the water. And they raised it to a level that would have been deadly. Now the operator caught it and fixed it. But it's an example of what can happen and how quickly it can happen. And imagine in a nation overwhelmed or a nation at war or a nation,

maybe a nation full of people. Guys, they're in here. A nation full of people who see a mistake like that and say, well, I don't like my neighbors that much anyway. They're all pro-Israel, pro-Trump, right? You don't think that minds are being manipulated in that way? Right now, people are being so brainwashed that they are standing strong with Hamas and Iran in the streets of the United States of America. You can't, it doesn't get much worse. I mean, barring a Kim Jong-un t-shirt, like it doesn't get much worse.

Waving the North Korean flag, it really can't get much worse. Do you know what I mean? Like these are the things that are happening. This is the situation we're in right now. things that are happening this is the situation we're in right now so it's not just about buying my book right it's not just about buying no grid survival projects it is what it is that's one to me it just represents a lot it solves a lot of problems it has a lot of answers in it it's really most about you understanding that this is a viable threat and and having an answer for oh the water doesn't work anymore or the water is not safe enough to to to depend on anymore or

the electric is gone and we don't know when it's coming back right the internet is gone and i don't know how i'm going to communicate these are things that with every day that goes by, the probability grows. The threats increase. And you must be prepared to beat that stuff back. We can do a whole series on this if you want. We can walk through everything. We can walk through no internet. We can walk through no electricity. We can walk through no electricity.

We've talked about it a lot here on PBN. You know, the problem with, it's no easy feat. When you start talking about we're going to jump from living the life that we live to living an off-grid lifestyle. You know, this is not an easy feat. It takes time. It takes understanding. And it takes money. A lot of times. A lot of times it takes some degree of money. You know, this is not an easy feat. It takes time. It takes understanding and it takes money. A lot of times, a lot of times it takes some degree of money, you know? So I understand

why it's like, yeah, I get that I need to do it, but man, I can't do it right now. I understand, you know, that position. Trust me. I'd like to have some more things as well. I'd like to have more preps in the off-grid situation too. We're just not, you know, we are limited by our space and time and money. So PBN family, this is my rant for today, okay? I try to avoid these dark rants about all the things that are going wrong and all the things you need to do. But guess what? Every so often you need a little kick in the ass, right?

All right, guys. I'll talk to you soon. Enjoy the weekend here at PBN. And prepare yourself for the World of Ready, which will be coming out next week. Okay? And if you don't know what the world of ready is don't worry i'll give you a nice big breakdown on our new children's book designed to create a culture of preparedness
