A Quiet Strength: Underground Cities, Mysteries, and Anxiety About World War III
Amidst the usual conflicts grabbing headlines, recent claims have surfaced about a hidden network reportedly funded by the US government, poised for activation in case of what exactly? Is it reality or a well-concealed conspiracy?
An underground world beneath our feet
An interview unveiled that the United States may have constructed around 170 underground cities, with some even located beneath the ocean. Allegedly, these facilities are interconnected via an exclusive transport system and reserved for individuals with political or economic influence.
Fitts, a former Deputy Secretary of Housing, suggests that these structures are equipped with all necessary urban infrastructure to sustain themselves autonomously for an extended period. These strategic shelters are not merely built to withstand nuclear attacks but to secure survival in the face of what she terms as an “almost extinction event.”
Reportedly, these underground cities began taking shape in the aftermath of the Cold War, driven by fears of a widespread collapse. Since then, they have allegedly progressed covertly with undisclosed budgets.
Enigmatic diversions and unsettling conjectures
Backing her claims, Fitts referenced a report by economist Mark Skidmore, who in 2017 exposed over 21 trillion dollars in unauthorized expenditure by the Department of Defense and Housing between 1998 and 2015. Some of these funds purportedly went towards the construction and upkeep of these clandestine structures.
Although the US government has not validated the existence of these facilities, the topic has gained traction in alternative media circles. Some tie these cities to an alleged secret space program, while others view them as preparations for an impending global conflict.
In this atmosphere, figures like British historian Niall Ferguson caution that the present world mirrors the tensions leading up to World War I. Ferguson believes that major powers are recklessly underestimating the repercussions of their decisions, potentially setting the stage for an unexpected global showdown.
