COMMENT: Mr. Armstrong, your computer pinpointed Ukraine three years in advance. Your computer also targeted the week of the Israel attack. Now your computer targeted Iran for February last year. Honestly, it is so obvious why they targeted you and wanted the source code after you also forecast the collapse of the USSR. They always claimed you had too much influence rather than try to understand how the world works. The media will not write one word about you because they fear it would only increase your influence. I understand your frustration because you have accomplished something nobody else has and they refuse to listen. But when it came time to write a peace plan, they still came to you because you have contacts others only dream of.
I admire your courage. I agree with you. No worthwhile journalist will dare write about your accomplishments. That just shows it is all fake news. What you have done is for the betterment of society. If no journalist will dare write about your accomplishments, they are not interested in helping society. They do not care about the future of their own family. What kind of person is that? Perhaps your name will be acknowledged after you are gone as you remarked. For then they won’t fear the powers that be and they can’t say your are influencing the world from your grave.

REPLY: Thank you. I never thought of such a career that I have found myself in. I tell youth who ask me how did I develop this career since there is no degree in this stuff, I explain shit happens. I was asked to write a peace plan because nobody else was. But the $10 billion they wanted me to fund their regime change of Russia was to be put into Hermitage Capital Management. When Yeltsin was blackmailed and he had to find a successor who was not an oligarch and not a communist, he turned to Putin, who the seized Hermitage Capital Management. Coming to me was strategic for (1) I could get the plan to Putin, and (2) Putin knew I refused to be part of the regime change in 2000. Because it came from me, it had more credibility insofar as I was not a Neocon nor a NY market manipulator.
Forecasting war cannot be done with just opinion. The computer is tracking everything. China is the primary buyer of Iranian oil, importing over 80% of Iran’s oil exports through unofficial channels that circumvent sanctions. China provides cybersecurity and intelligence support to Iran, and in January 2026 began implementing a strategy to replace Western technologies in Iran with secure Chinese systems. Just as the US provides satellite targeting for Ukraine to attack Russia, China is now providing that level of satellite coverage for Iran so they can target a carrier.
Russia and China simply do not want to be dragged into an Israel-Iran confrontation and have ensured that their cooperation and strategic alignments with Iran will not force their hands. They’ll provide weapons, intelligence, diplomatic cover, and economic support—but not direct military intervention. If this gets really out of hand and Iran can seriously damage a carrier, then the US will lose its mantle of invincibility. No carrier has been sunk since World War II.
Ayatollah Ali Khamenei acknowledged that a U.S. Navy aircraft carrier is formidable but said “An aircraft carrier is a dangerous machine, but even more dangerous than that is the weapon capable of sending it to the bottom of the sea”
While there is no officially confirmed evidence that Iran possesses nuclear weapons, many analysts believe that the Islamic Republic may have the ability—and potentially the will—to secretly develop and hide a limited nuclear arsenal. If produced, such weapons would almost certainly be stored in fortified underground military facilities. This “nuclear ambiguity” could mirror early-stage doctrines used by countries like Israel or Pakistan during their initial programs. The US has been claiming Iran is close and that was their view in 2007 as then expected they would achieve that by 2009. They may not have tested such a weapon to keep it secret. But this confrontation could result in using such a weapon when there is a clear intent to overthrow the Islamic State.
The People’s Republic of China and Russia have both signed strategic partnership agreements with Iran—without a mutual defense clause. Russia and China showed rhetorical support for Iran, including drafting a joint UN Security Council resolution calling for a ceasefire, that was ignored.
Here is Larry Summers express the prevailing view that if you could forecast, then you would have too much influence. The whole Marxist/Keynesian theory is that the economy is random so they can manipulate it at will. Even Paul Volcker in his 1979 book stated Keynesian Economics failed in 1974-1976 Recession. If I am correct, then they CANNOT manipulate society. Instead of respecting that I may have discovered something, they try to discredit it claiming it’s just my “”influence” so they have felt they must stop me.
Here is the main stream British press, the Evening Standard, when it wanted to taint the grand opening of the Forecaster in London. They went out of their way to use a head-hunter with the name of Martin Armstrong to try to discredit the film with a headline supporting the bankers using his comments but they used my photo. Klaus Schwab did the same thing to claim I joined the WEF. There has always been a concerted effort to try to prevent people from even looking at our computer to keep people ignorant so the market manipulators and government can control society. Clearly, if the computer did not work, they would not bother.
This career has had me digging my own grave. Besides the government, I have had groups trying to infiltrade my company so many times. I have turned down so many offers even from the Rothschilds. I have never been motivated by money. I don’t sell advertising because I do not want people to get ripped off or think I have endorsed something. There are those who just hate my guts because I will not play by their rules.
The precession of the equinoxes is approximately 25,800 years. (3 x 8.6 – 25.8) What I have discovered is the universal cycle of the Universe. The New Yorker Magazine called it the Secret Cycle. After they published that article, I believe the journalist was intimidated.
