“They get into the war [WWI] with fake, printed money, have to suspend the gold standard, & they get dragged into an endless war with a whole bunch of other stupid governments who also thought their magic money printer could allow them to fight until victory… since then, the world has never gone back on sound money, and we’ve had conflict in the Middle East…

This is ultimately a monetary phenomenon… a market distortion. You’re distorting the market for land in Palestine by preventing Palestinians from owning land…

Getting this shit of the money printer out of the market for real estate in Palestine I think would be the first step toward solving this.” - saifedean (npub1gdu…6nak) with Dave Smith (who we really need to get on Nostr)
