"Forget Iran, Iraq, Ukraine, and Syria this is where WWIII will start"
Should the rise of conflicts across the Middle East and Ukraine serve as a warning sign that something much more dangerous is approaching? According to Jim Rickards, the CIA's Asymmetric Warfare Advisor, the answer is yes. In a startling interview he reveals that all 16 U.S. Intelligence Agencies have begun to prepare for World War III. Making matters worse, his colleagues believe it could begin within the next 6 months.
However, what is being forecast is not a war but is a massive US financial collapse leading to 'a 25 year-long depression' which could 'possibly begin within 6 months'. The link provided points to a (I believe) video of a 46-minute American TV interview with Jim Rickards on a program called "Money Morning".
I, as a European, do not know whether this program is highly regarded or whether this is a interview which has already been discounted by many. Indeed, I do not even know when the program was initially aired. I will leave it to the viewer to make his own decisions. It is also worth noting that Jim Rickards is also using the interview to push his book on the same topic.

If he were, I'd think his job title would be classified.
Is he wasn't, I don't think the CIA would tell anyone that he wasn't.
This suggests a market opportunity. :-D

The asymmetric part is just that his left foot is bigger than his right foot.
Also, was your title typo on purpose? Assymetric.
