a bunch of old titanics in search of icebergs…

China is dumping US Treasuries at great speed as the US continues to overextend itself and weaponising the dollar. Stealing Russian assets was a historic mistake375,300 views… Not bad…

Dr Glenn Diesen knows what he’s talking about. 

 

He is not the only one, though…

The recklessly ballooning US national debt has surged by $441 billion in the two weeks since the debt ceiling was lifted, and by $1.71 trillion in 12 months, to $36.66 trillion. How this debt will blow out during the next recession when tax receipts plunge and expenditures explode is not anything we’d want to even think about.

Will foreign investors continue to buy this debt or will even more of it have to be absorbed by domestic investors? That question is high up on the worry-list. So far, there has been enough demand to keep long-term yields relatively low in this inflationary environment, with the 10-year yield currently under 4.5% and the 30-year yield at around 5.0%. A lack of demand would push Treasury yields up, and mortgage rates with them – until enough new investors find it appealing and buy it. So we keep an eye on who is still buying this debt.

AND DON'T MENTION TARIFFS...

 

In 2022, Dr Glenn Diesen wrote:

The Ukrainian conflict is a consequence of the failure to establish a mutually acceptable settlement in Europe after the Cold War. The efforts to move rather than remove the dividing lines in Europe are fragmenting the deeply divided societies in the shared neighbourhood between NATO and Russia, which is exacerbated by making them objects in a proxy war. The zero-sum conflict is sold by NATO as a conflict between democracy and authoritarianism, and between European integration or Russian imperialism. Propaganda is required to conceal that constructing a Europe without Russia undermines democracy due to the need to support divisive ethno-nationalist groups and suppress the Russophone population. 

 

Glenn’s Wikipedia entry (obviously not written, nor corrected by him) states:

Glenn Eric Andre Diesen (born 1979) is a Norwegian writer and political activist who is known for his promotion of Russian propaganda.[1][2][3][4][5] He is a professor at the University of South-Eastern Norway.[6] He has been a regular commentator on the Russian state-controlled international television network RT for several years, and writes for the conspiracy theorist website Steigan.no.[7] Norwegian academics and media have criticized him for promoting Russian propaganda.[8][9][10][1][11][12] Diesen's work has been criticized for lacking scholarly rigor and promoting an ideological narrative aligned with Russian state propaganda. Scholars have argued that his publications rely on selective use of sources, omit crucial context, and fall short of academic standards, replacing analysis with ideological framing.[13][14] He has been active in the pro-Russian party Fred og Rettferdighet, and was the figurehead of a pro-Russian campaign funded by Russia-based businessman Atle Berge.[15][16]

This vicious opinion from Wikipedia goes more venomous from here onwards… What is wrong here isn’t Glenn Diesen’s views which are TRUE beyond the sickly Western Academia anaemia — an academia that is either under the influence of the CIA or the domain of journalists who bat for the psychopathic Western warriors (otherwise known as warmongers). 

Gus's guess is all this wikinastiness is like water over a duck’s back... Glenn can wear the criticism as a badge of honour for a precise and excellent job well-done.

The Western propagandists who see the almighty god having given the task of the American Empire to take over the world, are thus up in arms against anyone who exposes the reality that their leadership is fascist…

Glenn isn’t a stranger to the shores of the Lucky Country…

B.com at the University of Wollongong, M.Bus at the University of Sydney, M.A.Ph.D. at Macquarie University, Sydney, Australia…

Dr. Glenn Diesen is a Scholarly Teaching Fellow at the Department of Security Studies and Criminology at Macquarie University. He studied international relations, Russian foreign policy, and security institutions in the European post-Cold War security architecture. His PhD thesis was on ‘Inter-democratic security institutions and the security dilemma: EU and NATO relations with Russia after the Cold War’, which addressed the ideational and institutional influence on the rationality of EU and NATO decision-makers from a neoclassical realist perspective.

And Glenn got another doctorate in Amsterdam and furthered studies at the Saint Petersburg State University. So Glenn has rigorously polished more academic benches than a million nasty one-side pen-pushers....

 

With the world politics as they are today, one would have to see Russia and China like modern luxury cruise-liners, with captain’s hand firmly in control towards the future, while the West is like a bunch of old Titanics in search of icebergs… This is how we see it and we think Dr Glenn Diesen sees it too...
