We continue to report on important mainstream investors, professional and private, who have warned about an impending, global financial catastrophe.  Now, add Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe to that list.
George Soros, Stanley Druckenmiller, and Carl Icahn among others have all made dire statements. They’ve also reconfigured their portfolios and taken positions in gold and silver and shorted the market.
The latest to join this list of doomsayers is Japanese Prime Minister Abe. This past Thursday at the G7 meeting he warned about the upcoming global crisis.
Abe was trying to generate support for global fiscal stimulus, according to reports. He told G7 members that the present times reminded him of the “post-Lehman era” in 2008. Lehman went bankrupt in September of that year and by the end of 2009, stock markets lost as much as half their value.
He even displayed a number of charts supporting his position that we are on the cusp of a massive collapse.
He showed how commodities have now sunk 55%, the exact same amount they fell during the last crisis, during the Shemitah year, 2008.

He also showed how indicators in emerging market growth have slowed to near 2008 levels as well.

Abe wanted the rest of the G7 to issue a public warning about what he believes is going to happen to his country and to the world from an economic standpoint.
Instead, Abe’s comments received a near media blackout.  Some media mentioned it but certainly not as headline news.  We didn’t even hear about it until today, five days later.
You’d think this would be pretty big news.  The Prime Minister of one of the biggest economies in the world just made a presentation saying we are on the brink of collapse not only in Japan but worldwide and it was mostly swept under the rug.
Mainstream media explained that Abe actually needed to raise the alarm because he wanted to put off a significant tax increase in Japan. But as we pointed out recently, billionaire bond investor Bill Gross concurs with Abe, certainly when it comes to Japan. He said in an interview that Japan is not really solvent anymore and that Japan’s central bank needs to buy Japanese public debt and retire it. You can see that report HERE.
Imagine if Barack Obama made a dire plea at the G7 that everyone should prepare for economic Armageddon and even brought up facts and data to support his position… it’d send world stock markets plunging.  Instead, Barack touts that anyone saying the US economy is doing poorly is “peddling fiction”.
But when the Japanese Prime Minister says it, it is barely reported.  There’s a reason.  The same globalist elites who are orchestrating the coming collapse own all the major media companies.  They don’t want Joe the Plumber and main street to get an inkling that something is wrong until it is too late… just like in 2008.
It makes perfect sense within the context of what we understand about Shemitah Trends and Jubilee 2016… as Jubilee 2016 is a year meant to put the building blocks of global government into place. The last thing G7 leaders want is to overly alarm people and thus come under pressure to prepare for an economic catastrophe.
The idea is NOT to prepare for economic catastrophe.
It could even be that Abe’s role was somehow pre-planned to warn leaders and thus generate headlines that would show discussions at the highest levels.  The IMF and the World Bank have also warned of an impending crisis… even Alan Greenspan.  Post-collapse, they can always point to Abe’s warnings to say they understood what could happen, but that none of these warnings were picked up in a meaningful way.
Now, if an ape gets shot after a zombified mother accidentally drops her toddler into a gorilla cage… well, that’s news that everyone must know!  But, the coming biblical-level economic collapse that Jim Rogers says could wipe out millions of Americans?  No need to focus on that!
For this reason most people will be blindsided by the collapse just like they were in 2008.
