7:00 pm
got it all through the government, but are rather a form of government itself, which is on account of the breaking news. 3 american soldiers are killed and dozens wounded in a drone strike on the us middle east and i'll post you as president joe biden says, the pro and radian forces of behind the attack. how this thing is from the suspension of funding by nearly a dozen western countries through the us relief in the works agency that's up to israel, claimed some of the organization stuff were involved in the october the 7th service attack. also, eco was under the influence of foreign powers and betraying its founding principles has become a threat to its members. states adopted in here rational and unacceptable past year
7:01 pm
by imposing illegals, who feel legitimate in humane and pure responsible sanctions in violation of its own. tx 3 west african countries, nisha valley up aquino fossil announced the withdrawal from the regional block because the, the, the headlines a 3 m must go time this monday morning, monday to speak to scouts. i'll be back with the full use one down for just them to an hours time off to get that the welfare to was a part of the relationship between the economy and politics. has been the central issue in a,
7:02 pm
a government strategy that you're supposed to work in unison to produce a healthy and generate a society. but a conflict between the fair or exploding one for the sake of the other, almost inevitably shows a nation interest rate. it happened to try in the, in the 19th century to the soviet union at the end of the 20th century. is it now the u. s. s. turn world to discuss that i'm now joined by emanuel past creature. president of the asia institute and former and green part of candidates for the years presidency professor pastry, which is great to talk to you. thank you very much for your time. thank you for having me. now if there's anything that the russian chinese american lives should agree upon, it is that the world is now finding himself at an inflection point. doing business as usual is no longer feasible for material reasons. there are no more resources for that. um here uh the question of how to move forward still remains open.
7:03 pm
what do you think will decided? i think the future will be determined by those who grasp what exactly has changed. and who can postulate a new paradigm that can be readily understood. the inflection point, as you imagine, is determined by how technology has advanced so quickly. it has been a beer so easily. false realities are promoted is true around the world and people are low to sleep by games video. and i have your v and a handful of finance years around the globe are able to manipulate the entire system, creating their own profit enemies as a masses. but many people still believe they live in a nation state and they work the assumptions that are no longer valid because banks are not banks. newspapers are not used papers anymore. and understanding that gap between names and things is
7:04 pm
a critical issue. as we are led to chase after the latest bad guy or blame a few bad apples in the us, the american present july then formulates this current inflection point moment as a choice between democracies. and i talk procedure, which i think both in will sco and beijing is interpreted as a choice between years dominance and political and economic affairs and more poll assenture the world with various forms of government, usually customized to local conditions and local societies. when are you looking to global trends? when you look at um statistics? where do you think the world is moving beyond, let's say the united states, russia in china? well, a choice between democracy and autocracy is a false one. because the ultimate issue is about who controls in nation the means
7:05 pm
of production and distribution and who controls money in debt and increasingly in the united states, or for that matter in china, russia in other countries, is controlled by multi national corporations, which are not an alternative government but are rather a form of government itself, which is unaccountable. and so we're really fighting against essentially strawberry charlotte and jerry slavers. busy paul terry newsome and we need the grass assessments of yours understand how a daily lives is increasingly controlled by i g companies and a variety of other powers from the bottom up and the bricks offered as an alternative in a limited sense in it. they oppose a slaughter, gaza, they don't want that war mongering, nato, and that's good,
7:06 pm
but they are not excluded from control by global capital. well, the question about proposition, because, for example, in russia right now, we are not at all, or will are excluded primarily from the implants of the global capital simply because of the american functions. i mean, the american capital has cut us off off from russian just looks down from china as well because of the chinese government is controlling, imposing controls on what's happening within the site is. and this is, i think, a coastal issue that underlies this somewhat artificial distinction between um, talk, chrissy and democracy because i think at the base of replies a totally different understanding of what makes. i'm with governors, both russia, china and many other societies favor a society framework, a framework that is to deliver social woods rather down individual. busy list gains,
7:07 pm
i wonder, and i know you don't leave it in the united states or don't reside in the united states at the moment. but when do you think uh, hostage is good governance for an average american disease. unfortunately, and united states increasingly, uh, government has been discredited. i do campaigns good, dating back around reagan, the say the enemy, government is the enemy and somehow the private sector, which is in fact another form of intel turn and governance run by multinational corporations and banks as an alternative. and that is reason extreme now which government and politicians represent different flavors of multinational corporations. and as obamacare, the power representing i p facebook, google. busy as opposed to try who represented certain factions of real estate, speculators and military contractors and what
7:08 pm
and other than other groups. so it's, it is a form of democracy, but it has nothing to do with citizens anymore. well, i want to describe it as a form of oligarchy. i mean, i was, oh no, i agree that i, i don't, i want to say personally, however, the china, russia and other countries are also wrestling with the same problem. said that it is a universal issue and it requires us to go back a basically a to the arguments going on in the, at the beginning of the 1st world war, which was the contradiction between the nation state and global finance. but you know, i think one very important and sometimes criticize feature of both a russian and chinese approach to governance is a very meticulous attention to the most trivial aspects of life, sewage, food, transportation, and you know, education, public health care,
7:09 pm
all those boy boring things. uh that, for example, in the west may be seen as excessive control or, you know, anatomy said, but from the position of, you know, the russian society, this is the most and this is what makes up the substance of life. this is why what people care most about rather than some abstract concerns, even let's say the warren gather as horrible it is as may seem, it does not have a direct influence on people's lives. but if your sewage system doesn't function, it does affect both of your ability to leave your lives. and actually many of your freedoms tend to be a human being functioning as human beings. so i wonder if you think the americans, uh, care about this aspect of, you know, the brand is bought. there is just something that is very boring very when they know theory ideological, but at the same time something that contributes to the ground to live. so my, my job is not to judge a china or russia, but that's all throughout the united states. and it's clear that one of the great
7:10 pm
damages that was great, that was just done the united states by systematic effort, basically from the reagan administration on a, to destroy a bureaucracy of civil service and the role of the intellectual and governance. essentially, we've ended up with no gutter. so the, the, the rhetoric in, say, someone like donald trump is a government is evil and that we should get rid of this evil bureaucrats. but in fact, what has happened is there are no smart bureaucrats. there are no experts in government, the state department, i mean essentially into the trap administration under, on peo. but the whole role of the administration was to get rid of all experts i saw that it was, decisions can be made by consulting firms, representing multinational bags and corporations essentially, and billionaires and their strategic teams. so this is how government is taking
7:11 pm
place. the united states and the solution is yes, exactly, start to get some form of government again. and would you have people long term who have expertise, who's feel that their responsibility is not this or the rich, but this are the people bullying a civil service and general service was based in the british civil service system. and the american civil service system was exclusively based upon the chinese model and the team dynasty. and i study the chinese studies originally. i was very inspired by chinese and korean and japanese versions of confusion, civil service. and uh, i want to ever be, oh, sorry for interrupting, but i think that it almost has a religious aspect to it. it's considered to be a duty and honor to serve your people to serve your country. do you think that
7:12 pm
aspect of the patriot is not something that you need to promote on the other side of the world of that aspect of very humble, pat, patriotism, serving your community, serving your nation? do you think it's still present within your society? we're also in the united states. there are obviously people who are struggling to find some way of expressing their concern about the country and the direction that is going. unfortunately, we have this sort of hall of mirrors then which various i pay consultants have tried to distract us towards a false. we called cardboard messiahs like donald trump and his crypto, fascist take approach. a based on at the national as um, and the site with a deep state by someone who's funded by the state or brock obama, who's supposedly the 1st african american. but it was backed by facebook and google and other id entertainment. uh theres. uh and so we have moved
7:13 pm
away from that, but the ultimate issue, i think, is the role of the intellectual. but it, whether it's in china, russia or the united states. but you have people with specialized education, which not everyone can have. is that something to be ashamed? uh, uh, buddy has to be dedicated to the interest of the common people. and this is not a new idea. it didn't start with the russian revolution. it was march, it goes back in history. this idea that the benefits you receive of higher education shouldn't specialize. learning should be devoted to the people . what i always fascinated me in your country is how the americans are using persuasion tactics and how they're able to persuade themselves of the most unbelievable and factually unsustainable. narratives, for example, in gal and tearing is most considered to be one of the american values. and yet
7:14 pm
when you look at the policy objectively, it is pretty clear that the entire system, both economic and political system is geared towards and reaching the rage and then powerful, empowering the powerful. how do you explain these gullibility here for the lack of a better? won't because they americans do believe that they leaving meritocracy and they leaving the free society in well, essentially we're looking at a collapse of the invisible aspect of the society. and that is the k o values in the collapse of civilization and institutions, though it's invisible. but essentially what we're seeing is that politicians are no longer politicians. there is self serving. and intellectuals are increasingly for sale. and we saw that now we see it now in terms of this. so the false
7:15 pm
identity politics in which the militarization of american society is hidden by praising the fact that women are asking americans are being promoted to be generals in which the domination, without any credentials for that are experience necessary by that. well, so it's, it's a false consciousness basically that's being promoted and i think it's in indicative of a collapsing system that the united states obviously is barely united states is a global system. and it, i was just following the symbol or a trajectory to the soviet union because of the units collapse. obviously had, are found in plaque far beyond the union, including north korea and all, lots of other countries who it bought into this economic system as a price change. i have to stop here right here. we need to take a short break,
7:16 pm
but we will be back in just a few moments state you the, the, every spring and summer. the melting optics move reveals a band and machinery,
7:17 pm
millions of rusty barrels, and the detritus left by human expansion into this most inaccessible of territories . yes, i used to move, so take off my both of us for someone from the lord at the post to be done as an issue. calling to us from clean optic travels the highest island home to the biggest opponent station on the fence of joseph land archipelago. sierra really asked me for our laws. my boys are more you have to do should. so it means if you have, when you feel when we see lots of money and then put some of the, some will stay on. the old stuff was so much you feel like you are a mess almost a little bit. see me membership when you to, that's got the serial. know, boy as a female. it please join me at that of the optic pioneers main objective was to explore and comcast, these harsh lands. they had no time to think about waste management now and, and then can see could remain for centuries. that's my of my choice of. so it's pretty at because your system is
7:18 pm
a multiple and you called at the dealership issue. the i'm back to wells of course, with emmanuel pastries, president of the asia institute as a former green party candidate for the years presidency it professor pastries. before the break, we were talking about the differences between the american system or the western system of liberal democracy and various uh, so called autocratic systems. and let's speak can briefly about the, the american electoral affairs because the united states is entering a very interesting election here in which,
7:19 pm
uh we have the same old choice that you had a back in 2020. i only, that's in this case. the roles are reversed. i heard the joking there of the day that back in 2020 and by them around in order to prevent trunk from staying in office. now trump is doing the same. i want to ask you is somebody who has spent a lot of time in the united states. i started there, have friends there. i know that this is a country with very talented, very energetic, intellectually enlightened population. there are many bride people there. there are many people who are genuinely authentically concerns about their country, about people around them. why do you think you are faced with this same old choice? yeah, think yeah. well is 2nd election between buying is in a vegetative state and try proves sort of a pro wrestler turn politician. and now, i mean a good guy now handled by the there's is truly
7:20 pm
a zombie apocalypse. and i think the comparison which has been made with the laser, the union refreshing as may have to be 7300, possibly died at 69. and that you're now sco who died and 73. all of they were younger than buying in drugs is quite a, a meaningful that we're really our, uh, the aging of this political. busy figures, it resembles a weight empire. this goes back in to the room is essentially old. people are e r y much better as rulers if decisions are being made in the shadows and behind the curtains. so it represents a decay of institutions really. and that really is extremely serious because so many countries base their systems on the assumptions united states works. but i also think as an american or for that matter, as a citizen to be or that we also have to be detached. we have to recognize that
7:21 pm
republics throughout history from you know, the greeks and romans usually last for 250 years that they don't last longer than that. are they, they tend to fall into a state of, of decay. and this is a natural process. so we should detach ourselves and recognize this as a predictable crisis. and we have to respond to it. in other states makes it very difficult for the rest of the world to stay depressed because it gets uh, sort of projecting its own in a problems onto the rest of us. but for some reason, we all have to adopt this, a brilliant democratic system that doesn't seem to be functioning within the united states as your have described. and yet, it is being pushed onto the rest of the world as if to settle all of us with the american players ation and the american death and the american problems and the various issues within the american society. and i want to ask you, why do you seeing both the american leadership and the american people find
7:22 pm
a prudent to spend resources on financing the worst overseas on finding rivals or adversaries overseas. instead of, you know, taking this turn in ward and try to address with whatever resources they have their own in their issues. well, i wasn't saying that we should be detached in the sense that it's ok. i was saying rather that in our attempt to assess the problem that we need to do in, in a objective in scientific math. but it's extremely serious. so basically we haven't ever seen a divine ministration which is linked to another national ministration. and of course, to the british administration, which i have decided that they're willing to push for world war in order to stay in power in order because they know that their full corruption is exposed, they'll all go to jail. i mean, it's extremely dangerous. so i wasn't making why that the situation in terms of the
7:23 pm
psychology of americans. i think the best analogy for understanding psychology is one of i think the analogy to insects and incest is in the cases of, of people who are abused by their parents. they often refused to recognize that they're victims of incest, somebody's for decades. and the reason is that their betrayal of, of, of being abused by someone that one trusted as a father and mother or brother sister is so disturbing that it's easier to pretend it didn't happen or to blame a 3rd party a that it is to admit the truth and the type is that american citizens, whether it's starting mean i would start with the not with the $911.00 incident, but there are a whole series of other things including massive transfer. busy trillions of dollars do quantitative easing and so called cobit release, which somebody like 30 trillion dollars was transferred to the dns and private
7:24 pm
equity banks. this is so disturbing that it's easier psychologically to just pretend it didn't happen. then they confronted and that was really what my campaign was about. was to say, i have no money in black the media, but i'm going to tell is true. this is, you know, what really have, as well as somebody who studies depth psychology i find your matter for both accurate and very suddenly and, but i think it's also, you know, it rings true because if we look at the way the campaigns are conducted or have been conducted over the decades is essentially the priming of very intense emotions . there is very little emotional or mental differentiation. i think one russian extra and describe it as a, as a politics of fear or fear mongering on the democratic side versus the politics of fury on the republican side. on one you pump this very strong in terms of motions. no wonder in that half of the population will be conflicted with the,
7:25 pm
with the results of, of those elections. and it would be almost impossible to govern or implement any policy changes there after before we go into discussing your own uh, run uh, intended to run. uh, for the years presidency, can i ask you what can possibly put the american political discourse, american political lives into a more civil and more sort of humanist way human is. i mean, it actually caring about people who you are supposed to be uh, courting, rather than your own vested interest. well, i think the change has to be from the bottom up. it has to be from citizens who engage or they themselves. they create a model for what a government could be based upon their interaction with the people around. and that this is, it's, uh, there's a, uh, a political scientist, the data scuffle,
7:26 pm
who wrote a book called diminished democracy in which he argues, i think, very convincingly that the only way to have a democracy at the government level is this local systems of participation. but whether it's clubs or sports teams or whatever, i run me privately. and so the way to create a positive cycle towards democracy is to start having democracy, starting with yourself, how you interact and your family with your neighbors and your people around you and the that put pressure from the low on the system. now, um, as i mentioned to you, you made an attempt to run for presidency yourself as far as i understand you are no longer running. but what were the changes, or what were some of the ideas that you hope to bring to the, to the political process? and why did you think that it was possible to do that? well, so i had originally run as an independent and do in 2020 and given
7:27 pm
a series of speeches. and there were a group within the green party, which is the 3rd largest in terms of number of people party in the united states. i do want to do a treat me for the green party. they would distinguish that group as being not necessarily progressive or conservative. they are open to many different perspectives, but they were focused on a state crime issue. and so my position, which was the sort of 3, which is a 911 truth kobe truth and federal reserve to was matched up reverie, well, was accurate, and they, they recruited me, they got me registered as a candidate. they promoted me. but basically, i think the word went down within the green party. i notice that the i was, i was not to be supported a, so i've been able to raise any funds. and so after
7:28 pm
a month of not having any money to do anything and being blocked as us media, mainstream media, i pulled out, i would be happy to run if it was possible. but i think i serve a more valuable purpose, articulating what a candidate should say, then compromising, like say, robert kennedy, who to compromise basically every, the steps for an order to remain on tv. do you think that the system, the american system as it stands today, even that allows for a truly authentic lean defendant candidate to even enter the race let alone. when i'm in uh to advocate his position to be honest about what he or she wants to achieve. and to actually, if, you know, a miracle happens to actually implement what he or she came to office for. well, i think i'm a case study in that respect. so it was possible to run for one month in the green
7:29 pm
party, but i was blocked out of all the media. so although i was in a position that normally would be reported in newspapers, i was and so it was impossible. basically, why was it impossible? i think basically the reason it's impossible and it's not just me, it's true in the congress. it would have been no different if i was running for the house of representatives. the reason it's impossible is because of secret governance. so the united states, we have elections, of course, but there's another layer, and it's dominated by 3 elements in my platform. one is classified directives, so the executive branch can give our classified direct is to me, or you would say, we can't talk about this. we can't do this. second is adrian lot. the congress passes laws which are secret the guy be disclosed about going to jail, but which have the same binding power as federal law. and these are used to block,
7:30 pm
i mean, you can have a secret law that says manual give you mtv. and the 3rd is non disclosure agreements. image in order to work the campaign or work for government award for corporation. they make you sign the agreement that says, even if the government or my company breaks the law, i cannot disclose it. and if i do disclose, usually like giving these other gentlemen so. so that's the secret governance. well, professor pastries, who are painting a very upfront, says, a picture for all of us, but i think there was one very uplifting message in our discussion. and it is the democracy. true democracy of stars within yourself, within your own family, within your own community. the way how you are treating life in general, this is a matter of personal conscience that no secret service can control. and i think this is a great freedom that all of us have. thank you very much for being with us today
7:31 pm
and thank you for watching hope to sir again on walter part.
