It is indeed serious to say that it is serious.

But it is still very different from what is generally said to be serious.

That is, facing these newspapers and magazines in the past few months, Jester did not look at the contents, but stared at the titles of the most prominent pages.

After seeing the title he was interested in, he pulled the newspaper out of it and put it aside.

Although Jester reads quickly.

However, after all, the base of this large stack of newspapers is very large. Even if he reads one in five seconds, he will need to read these hundreds of them for more than an hour, and his eyes will be very tired.

In fact, after half an hour of wide eyes, Jester's eyes hurt a little.

After taking a break in his eyes, he was also a little tired of the way to carefully read the title one by one, but he was not very good to tell his subordinates what he was looking for.

So he picked up the newspaper he had chosen before and started reading it first.

These newspapers report on the current situation in the Middle East generation.

It can be said that the situation in the Middle East is like a powder barrel, and the United States and Iraq have reached a strife.

It was just the end that he drew his sword to face him.

In July, the negotiations between Iraq and Kuwait entered a deadlock, and on August 1, the two sides announced that the negotiations had broken down. Immediately afterwards, Iraq launched an invasion of Kuwait and occupied the entire territory of Kuwait in a short period of time.

You know, before, the United States announced that Kuwait was protected by him.

Iraq's behavior was like a naked slap. Now it has forced the Soviet Union to brink of collapse and faced the arrogant United States in the face.

But the United States did nothing.

On the day Iraq announced the breakdown of negotiations with Kuwait, US President Bush condemned Iraq's actions as "naked aggression". It "posed a real threat" to the national interests of the United States and announced the freezing of all Iraq and Kuwait's assets in the United States.

Immediately, on the next day, the same day when Iraq invaded Kuwait, the United States launched the "Operation Desert Shield" defense operation to prevent Iraq from invading Saudi Arabia. Two US Navy fleets led by the USS Eisenhower and the USS Independence entered the combat area and gradually increased their troops towards the Middle East. So far, 500,000 troops have been stationed.

Jester found more than a dozen newspapers of various major newspapers in succession and read them carefully.

From the words on these newspapers, we can see how serious the situation at that time, or in other words, the current situation was.

Also on the day Iraq invaded Kuwait, the United Nations passed a new resolution.

The Security Council adopted resolution 660, condemning Iraq's violation of the UN Charter and demanding its withdrawal, with 14 votes in favor, 0 votes against and 1 abstention.

The UN Security Council has successively passed 12 resolutions to condemn and sanction Iraq. These resolutions put Iraq in an extremely isolated position in politics, economy, military and diplomacy. Resolution 678 stipulates that the deadline for Iraq to withdraw its troops is January 15, 1991. If Iraq does not withdraw its troops before the deadline arrives, the resolution authorizes UN member states to use "all necessary means" to implement the resolutions adopted by the United Nations.

On the second day, the United States and the Soviet Union reached a consensus and issued a joint statement, requiring Iraq to "withdraw troops from Kuwait unconditionally" and "fully restore Kuwait's sovereignty, legitimate regime and territorial integrity."

News about sanctions or intimidation resolutions like this spread throughout the page at that time.

Most of the contents of the next few months are related to this.

However, many people still think that war will not happen, because as long as they are not fools, they should know that the United States, which is no longer restricted by the Soviet Union, is such a terrible behemoth. No country in this world consolidates its consolidation against it.

In other words, most people believe that Iraq will not be able to continue to confront the United States, and will definitely make a decision to withdraw troops before the fifteenth of next year.

Jester breathed a sigh of relief at first.

He looked at the current oil futures and found that there had not been much change yet, so there were naturally fluctuations. After all, the invasion of Kuwait was not a trivial matter. However, Jester knew that judging from the series of resolutions made by the United States, war was likely to be inevitable.

Jester, who has memories of the future, naturally knew that the Gulf War was impossible to avoid.

In fact, since the official launch of the Desert Shield Project, the farthest and most ambitious strategic transportation plan in the history of human wars, which spans 12,000 kilometers of air transport and 15,000 kilometers of sea transport, has absolutely not allowed it. This war has become a terrible one. Even if Iraq does not want to fight, the United States will force it to continue.

Iraq doesn't need the United States to force it, they just want to continue

Because Iraq is now immersed in the illusion of their No. 1 power in the Middle East and the fourth military power in the world, and they also believe that they have the most advanced Soviet equipment in the world.

However, Jester knew that all of this was in front of the integrated war model of air-ground that the United States was about to show, and it was like it was made of paper, completely vulnerable.

Thinking of this.

Jester called Sandy Will directly.

During this period, Sandy Will was also very busy. He was busy reorganizing a commercial credit company to form a Traveler Group.

From the phone, Jester could hear the fatigue of Sandy Will's voice.

"Jess, when will you come to New York? When he came, he brought Claudia and Shana missed her very much." Sandy Will had a close relationship with Jester, and he was also Jester's elder, so he said a few words kindly at first.

Jester naturally also politely talked to each other.

Then, the topic came to the question.

"Grandpa Will, have you seen the latest news? About the Middle East."

For major domestic and international affairs, for people like Sandy Will who do finance, this is something that must be paid attention to at all times. They even have professional consulting strategy companies to specifically analyze these things. Not only are these financial giants, oil giants, and arms giants, the same is true.

So, as soon as he heard Jester mention the Middle East, Sandy Will immediately knew what Jester was talking about.

His tone couldn't help but become serious.

"Why, Jace, do you have any opinions?" Sandy Will dared not underestimate Jester, because Jacester had made two very amazing predictions in front of him. If it weren't for these two amazing languages ​​that made commercial credit companies make a fortune, he would probably not have the chance to reorganize the Traveler Group now.

Of course, if Jester had not had the newcomer to him, he would not have had the opportunity to make a comeback.

Moreover, Jester's way of being willing to be a hand-off manager and entrusting everything to him was also a pity for his own appetite.

In general, Sandy Will attaches great importance to Jester.

"I think war is inevitable." When Jester said, his tone was very firm.

After hearing Jester's words, Sandy Will frowned.

"What specific news do you mean?" For Sandy Will, there is not a single person who says there will be a war, but no one is as sure as Jester said, because the United States is so powerful now, so powerful that no one dares to resist the will of the United States.

"No."

Jester first answered with certainty, but after a little pause, he immediately added: "However, I just received an order message from the sales department. The Pentagon sent this order. They asked us to prepare 300,000 gameboy palm machines for them in early December."

After hearing Jester's answer, Sandy Will frowned fiercely.

Then, he continued in a somewhat puzzled tone: "I am forgiving, with this alone, it is unlikely that it will be concluded that the war will definitely happen. As long as Iraq is willing to compromise, the war will not break out. Moreover, even if the Pentagon issued an order to you, it may be just a preparation. You must know that in just two months from August to now, the government has transported more than two million tons of equipment, 400,000 tons of supplies, and more than 400,000 soldiers to the Gulf..."

Before Sandy Will finish speaking.

Jester spoke directly and interrupted his words.

"Please forgive my powerlessness. I do have no evidence now, but I have a premonition that Iraq is absolutely impossible to compromise or concessions, and war is absolutely impossible to avoid."

"this……"

Although what Jester said is extremely powerless if others hear it.

But this is not the case in Sandy Will's ears.

You know, the previous few things that Jester had similar prophecies were the premonitions he said, which was something that Sandy Will didn't believe.

At this time, Sandy Will was a little dazed and remembered what Jester had said to him.

“My eyes can see the future.”

Suddenly, Sandy Will's expression tightened. In his next tone, there was no doubt about what Jester had said before, but asked in a very eager tone.

"When will you come to New York? Is it evening?"

At this time, Sandy Will can already see that if the war really broke out as truthfully as Jester said, then how much profit he would get from the futures market. (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!
