the, the hello and welcome to cross talk. we're all things are considered. i'm peter was about the north atlantic treaty organization is celebrating its 75th anniversary in washington. this week, for many in the west, nato is deemed to be the most successful military alliance in history. for others beyond the west, nato is the most serious security threat to humanity. today, the cross talking nato. i'm joined by my guess. erin, good in philadelphia. he is

a political scientist historian, as well as author of american exception empire in the deep states in san francisco . we have k, j. know he is a political analyst and journalist and in lisbon we cross alexander guerrero. he is an international legal analyst. right. gentleman comstock rose in effect, that means he can jump any time you want. and i always appreciate, aaron, let me go to you 1st thing in philadelphia. um, um we have, we here over and over again. nato is the most successful military alliance in history is almost like getting f one on your computer. but you know, as they're celebrating their uh 75th anniversary in washington. what achievements, how do they have under their belt, other than surviving as an alliance? that's the only quote unquote achievement. i can think of go ahead or as well they tow served to keep alive western imperialism and to re brand it as a either under it consolidated under the us band or as really of all of the colonial powers of the world. the united uh,

basically the core of capitalism and imperialism for the proceeding centuries. and they were able to re branded as a defense of freedom, this very powerful force or a, that had a lot of investing capital all around the world. the us police that and nato was a, the tip of the spear, they're in a sense, especially as it began to expand into these, quote unquote peacekeeping missions and so on in the wake of the cold war of the aftermath of the cold war. and this led to it becoming something a kind of different sort of a in force or for the, the, or global capitalism for the us, us empire, west and imperialism. and but going back to the cold war, i mean, if it's a successful or a regime in that it's did stay in power for so long. but it's also existed as a kind of dictatorship of europe in certain ways. i mean the gladiators, the gladto networks were called nato secret armies by some people. and they were

there as a kind of dictatorship in the wings for any western european leader that got out of line that they could stage balls flag, terror attacks. so it, it put the lie to democracy because you can't really have a democracy when the state maintains a secret veto over the very lives of your heads of state. and can also engage that acts of policy like terrorism to move the population politically wherever they want them. so this is really a dark floors in global politics that i don't think will be fully recognized by large parts of the public until the afternoon. as with so many things of that we see in the last few decades, especially the us empire. such denial of what is at the top of it at the corner of it. uh that i don't think we can deal with it until that power is, is decisively defeated. and perhaps when nato is dissolved, we'll start talking about, well, you know, yeah, okay, tay, it's really interesting with a visa, ve, the ukraine,

complex nato has been able to devour as it were, the european union. i mean, it's, you know, you, the, the, it's nato, the dictates the security ideas of, of the entire union, the independence of states do not. so that is another on notch and nato is about one of the interesting things, as they always talk about themselves as a defense of alliance, i'm calling this program offensive alliance. i wonder would people ins in serbia think about the term defense of alliance or libya and the failed mission in you in afghanistan? i mean, and also what they're doing in ukraine. i mean, they continue to say that they're not a party to the conflict with lisa, which is just laughable. go ahead. k j. yes, i've been, it's been the murderous on of us imperialism. and it's, as you said earlier, it's great. his success has been, it's branding, or it's mystification of what it's really doing. it's not defensive. it's never for

a defensive war in it's lifetime claims to be a collection of democracies. but no, it's never been democratic from the beginning. it was a lied was fashion states like fortune goals and delete it was integral in ensuring the success of fascism around europe. and it even had lose one time. chief of stock adults posting got a he went from the chief of the nazi military command to the chief of the nasal military for not. and did you know of ports to uphold human rights and rule of law, but actually destroyed human rights. it destroys human lives, it destroys a quote. and i think the way that the countries around on the walls had largely seen through it. it sees it what it is, rested on us imperialism bein sports or the boons on us. well, it's alexander, you know, they,

they call themselves the defense of alliance. but if you look at the security architecture of europe, nato is an instrument in which europe and security is decided not only without russia but against russia. and that's why we have the situation. we have in ukraine, go ahead and list, but right here we are saying here in europe where we say the best defense is get that. and basically, this is the, the, the, the, the topic that inspires the model that police nato on east actions towards any other countries. we must not forget the notary itself. it was created in lake 19 for specially to check gold and to block. the government isn't as well as the most of your union over your so the start to, to have any direction to fight russia. what do these russia after the buckle are all the full of the burly, all things the chief jim drastically because they have and crumbling back them. a

president that was all in favor of the west of useless. but suddenly, when the russians decided to have their own identities to make their own way by themselves, then again, russia rise as being understood here in the west as being anatomy. and as long as we have this kind of understanding to look at russia as anatomy and not as in our, we will keep only speeding social the rest. the serial in the ras innovation is like actually that's everything that marks. and that's the main brand off of natal all over the world. so what we have knowing you brain, this is not a surprise if we take a look above how the united states worked so hard along with you'd be you and you can solve a democratically elected president. and it's right to be plus the political situation in your brain and to go, we are seeing now underneath those lives. this is understood as being

a challenge on the life of their we, we as nate or we is where we have to defeat the independence. russia as well as multiple or is this, you saw things understood and yeah, this is how nato is work is by spreading more and more locally pick news, but also to share and to provide a lot of weaponry to you. great, because the dream is not to see the brain is not the revenue dependent to bring the bowl. the main goal is only 2 sided, russian and other russia equal also can china, the 2 major powers into world war independently work independently from western needs and quote, you know, area and wait, wait, we heard from lloyd austin, the secretary of defense early on in this complex are this part of the conflict they should say, because it started in 2014 not in 20. 22. is that the goal was to weaken russia, and of course not only to weaken russia, but to break it up. we have their officials in the european union now, but say that openly go ahead. aaron. the right that's clearly was the whole mind

onto was about and it's more and more obvious that this is the case and it's the it, the whole episode highlights the real crisis at the top of the us regime because it should have been easy to game out that the you the, the, the ukrainians, we're not going to be able to defeat russia, that russell viewed this as a extremely important existential even battle for themselves. and that they would, they would not be able to defeat them, defeat russia and ukraine without provoking a response that would likely leads and go to nuclear war. then russia has been very methodical about treating the ukrainian military. that is essentially a nato military, a week after week after week. and when you, we were talking before about how you people predicted that this conflict put it in pretty quickly and it absolutely should have been did very quickly. it was about to

end in april, right. so that's why it's negotiations, and it's a truism and international relations and political science that you can't achieve anything at the negotiating table that you cannot achieve on the battlefield. but this wasn't really true for ukraine. ukraine could actually walk away with a much better deal than it ever could achieve on the battlefield as we are seeing now. and was always obvious. and the, the war itself had the effect of imposing upon russia. the imperative that they had to engage in import substitute industrialization because of all the sanctions and everything else. but the us actually in the west, the liberal west of the early cold war, used to actually advocate this for countries, the head balance of payments pro, problems and so on. as a way to shore up their economic systems. and this is how the us became of that going on, the power was through import substitute industrialization, texting tariffs and taxing in parts and building infrastructure. that was how the us became and with power. that's all right. so we basically forced us to do things

that were very beneficial for russia economically and industrially. and we hasten the end of the dollar regime. and we have wasted a massive amounts of money, some of which went to actually buy weapons and probably pay soldiers. but a lot of it was just embezzled by ukrainians. who are they're taking all of this money and just sacrificing their own countrymen for this doomed effort. that is really only made russia considerably stronger us and nato a weaker and destroyed you train? yeah, i mean k of the, the, the whole effort to turn the, the, the, the rubel into rubble is actually boomerang very, very strongly against the west. i mean, if you, if you're not a lift you live in russian, you don't follow the news. you wouldn't even though the country is sanctioned. go ahead take a real quick before we go to the break. absolutely, and most countries have not gone along with those sanctions. it's the vast majority

of countries, except for the e. u and some western european vassals, those are the only countries that have gone along with these unilateral illegal sanctions, most of the world has voted with their feet and they said we are not with the united states. we have not with nature. and so very clearly, as you point out in russia, you know, the sanctions on felt rushes. economy is doing fine. it's like it's doing much more . well, i mean, i'll surprise a lot of viewers. i like the sanctions. i like them or get away from the toxic a financial system of the west because it doesn't have a future gentleman. i have to jump in here. we're going to go to wish a short break. and after that break, we'll continue our discussion on nato state with our to the russian states. never as,

as tight as i'm one of the most sense community invest in most all sense enough in assist you must be the one else calls question about this, even though we will then in the european union, the kremlin media mission, the state on rochester routing and split the sport that came in our video agency, roughly all the band on youtube. the tv service was for the question, did you say steven? twist, which is the launch the 22nd 1943. doing the great petri, think they should, some on show fatality and 118 run down the belly, mercy,

and village of cutting the ship of the person if i did the new wish in luxury is scenarios because the this one most of the rooms $240.00 you to you. 149 people died, including 75 children of age was practically wiped off the face of the long new blue loves of the orchard and could of charlotte was noisy and we'll use porter as follows. though few was hot really, i really usually don't you feeling? yes, so the infamous battalion responsible for the atrocity included over $100.00 ukrainian national is from west to new. right? the picture. all right, and so i'm see what, okay. and so far as the new e phone, that's a lot of those to you guys for soon, you know, i'm with them. us customers declassified criminal cases from the central archive of

the k g. b of the rules shed light on the atrocity announced a numerous questions that have remained an onset for many years. watch on oxy, the welcome back. across stock were all things are considered. i'm peter real about your mind. you were discussing nato. the ok, i was henry started out this program by asking air and what the achieve, what nato was achieved on it's 75th birthday here. but i, i found, you know, broken promises to be honest with you. and let's go through 4 of them real quick, one right after another. not one in east. talking about german unification. ok. they lied about that ukrainian neutrality. they lied about that indivisibility of

security. they lied about that. and the whole mens process they've proven to move themselves to be deceitful, liars, so i don't know what they're celebrating. but i think the, the, the dishonesty into clear city of this alliance has to be highlighted. that's why i'm making this program. alexander, it's just basically, they're celebrating all those countries that they help to fuel and rest. they also help to these members in that think about you was live, you're probably on their neighbors perspective. this is a reason to celebrate a, specially for the present to present the secretary general, the nations who back them was primary sort of portugal and she support is fully then they do it. the ration daniels like it now sees a feeling and to try to call for it or be in, in, in your brain. but basically what you bring has been given guys what nato has been giving us all over this time. was only the early speak agenda. only then will

solution that they want to gather more and more countries only on the under the perspective of a boarding seer. rather than that, they will give any kind of depressive perspective. for example, you bring, they have the expectations to join nato. so wish we all know is highly unlikely. normally it will never happen, never bought. i bought the st possible. but this, technically, it's highly unlikely, but i believe that they keep would keep pressure on the secretary general natal do aesthetic step down at the same time. i believe that this is not queasiness. there . literally this we took the blue we far above these events on the pediatric building here. yeah. the way it was discussed in the base over west and meet with the media. yep. and how this be used in order to justify more and more weaponry

support from day to, to break. we never heard, we have never heard and deal now. and not only natal officials, but also being an individual's speaking about bees about choose never heard of about that we only hear the say kind of model which is destroying and defeats rushing. we have to that pressure re douglas, what did they fix? they will reduce all you bring, and i have to ask, what do you guys like to bring? will we have in the next 22 years? will that even be you great. what is this the project alternate to is? this is next. well, you know, alexander, i don't think the nato under the leadership of the united states, gives a hoot about what happens to ukraine personally. okay. i mean, i suppose of these, the lensky res, seem as illegitimate as it is right now. they will always strive for nato membership as long as they get paid. okay, i don't know, did these people send their kids to the front? i tend to doubt it, you know, air and there's, i, i mentioned my,

my 3rd broken promise lie here. and i don't want to sound really nerdy, but you know, the indivisibility of security. this was what made your opinion security work. you can not enhance your security at the expense of another country. everybody agreed to that. everybody, if it was called the helsinki process, okay. and now nato, as if that doesn't exist. well, russia does, aaron. right, and we're seeing now with the position of that israel finds itself in that it really is a huge security issue to have hostile military powers, right on your doorstep. israel has been in this position where it should have tried to make peace with the people in the region, but it was so hell bent on an expropriating. what the past indians has left, that they've antagonized all of their neighbors, and they find themselves surrounded by people who have missiles that can be aimed at them. and there's really no defense against that. ukraine armed with hypersonic

missiles. what's the us will one day be able to produce, you know, more efficiently in the near future. that would have been a disaster for rest of they would have been minutes away from the nuclear range of nato. moscow would have been, so it really was a tremendous thread and, and, and the legitimate threat. this wasn't an imperialistic land grab by a vladimir, put in the way that it's depicted in the west. brussel has lots of land and lots of resources. it really was motivated by a fear of security, that is part that is existence. so because it's the same logic that the us applied to cuba in the cuban missile crisis. and you can't really stop ballistic missiles that are very close to you as a israel is finding out you can just overwhelm all missile defense systems. and that's why this is, it was deemed it's such a huge threat in part, in the fact that it would have taken away their access to a warm water port which is essential for russia,

which i think is part of the motivation for it. i think rushes, the backing of syria made the you couldn't the neo cons that, that run you as for policy, for the last 30 years, it made them go kind of insane. that because they really, i think that there are people who are a large part of them are dedicated 1st and foremost, to the idea of greater israel. and syria stands in the way of the final solution for the postilion and says, rushing to help syria as well. the rest of it had to be destroyed. i think that that might be the thing that best explains why they were not so greedy because that's what we expect from western imperialism. but greedy and single minded, a stupid way to confront russia, it is stupid. well, english and so here, i mean, why they didn't, they, they know very little about history because it lets us go back to the cold war. major new killer powers don't go toe to toe. it's not a good idea. you know, why? because one might lose or both might lose. go back to the 19th century. great

powers tried to stay away from fighting each other because you could lose. okay, look what happened in 1918 major powers finding each other one empire after another collapse. it's not a good idea to do it, and now we have new killer weapons. okay. that's what makes these people uh, fools and very, very dangerous k j. let me go to you. i mean, i, i promised myself i wouldn't make a program about, uh, biden's dementia, but the biden's, the mentor isn't, are interfering with our program. okay. we all know about the disastrous debate checks that's done. but then with the a b, c, news interview with stephanopoulos. the biden was talking about his achievements. i expand nato. you just do americans really give a hoot about expansion of nato? i mean, considering half the country is for the debt that is there. be like so many people fear for their livelihood here. and you have this man saying, but i expanded nato. i mean, these people are really out of touch. you know, it's,

it's up. so, i mean, clearly by doing is no longer capable of, you know, exercising even minimal cognitive function. i think just the other day he said that he was the 1st of last price it on a site for his that yeah, yeah. as vice president. so i think that, you know, in the united states, all you have to do is look around, you, people are starving, they're homeless. that hysterical the naked, they're suffering, you know, 50 percent of the us population does not have $600.00 to its name. and for joe biden, to go up in an interview and say that is great. accomplishment is expanding nato. i mean, i think all of us look around and say, you know which planet is this person living on? it's just an absolute and total upset. well, you know, but alexander, explain to us why nato won't negotiate an end to this conflict in ukraine. by my

account. russia is proposed 5 different times. and, and as aaron pointed out with this, them bull process and weeks after the complex started in february of 2022. there was a, a sticker document that had been essentially initial, why can't nato negotiate an end to this? because when, when this comes to an end, make us go to look very bad, it may be, its very existence will be at stake. it has a choice. go ahead. well, honestly, i honestly believe that natal steel holes that there is a liking the end of the tunnel that will allow them to exit no exaggerate. you know, i liked the matter for the light at the end of the tunnel, but you know what, that light at the end of the tunnel is a train coming out to keep going. exist. exactly that, and that's pretty much look through what happens in. yeah, because they have the expectation that they will be saved then that they will be able to get off of this conflict in a clean way. and we'd all dig,

at least if it needs to need to face their own boulders and say, well, we have to do the best we have to achieve an agreement. but at least this was the best solution for everyone. because presently there is no best solution for natal. there's no good solution natal simply is continue and trying to use your brain as a weapon against the russian and until the moment that they will not be able to continue to do so on that moment. natal ones have any kind of excuse to plug your parts in for this topic. like you said, there worked at least 5 attempts made by rushes to achieve reach a peace deal. the 1st one. it was not because your brain is even want to. it was because your brand names were forced to languish. we have to cite to say this many, many other funds in that to believe it or not. so this was the dance. there were several others. i don't believe that you gradients are pretty comfortable on,

continue fighting against russia and every day listening to the news and watching it with the and reading at the same time that another village another. another place passed full and at the same time, dozens or hundreds of you bringing the dairy personnel test. i, i don't believe that they actually accept up to continued 5 to get a solution. well, i'm but there, and if, if you know, if you're in the zalinski gang, i don't know how they cut up the spoils here. but i mean, it's an amazing griffith. i mean, well, keep it going as long as they possibly can. i'm sure they've got planes on the tarmac to fly them to miami or tel aviv. okay. or wherever they're going to go. i mean, this is at the end of the day that's a gripped and, and, and it, we have people like hunt like hunter bite. they bureau was the spear of it all. go ahead, aaron. yeah, it will be very interesting to see how this plays out the in the game here with these people because it's going to become clear to the premiums if it's not already

that they have been robbed and sold down the river by these people. i think that those is the carrot and the stick. far zalinski is that he can, you know, steal and embezzle, you know, millions and millions of dollars from the money that the us gives you train. but he also, it faces there, potentially happy you tries to reverse course. i think that the knob i the is own people by his own people. a. yeah, he has a nazi contingency that believes that this is some sort of eschatological conflict for them internet and saying, you know, an area and back and waterways, but i don't even understand where i is. the end of the day, a lot of people are going to leave and are going to be counting their money and no one will be held accountable for this catastrophe that never should have happened gentlemen. that's all the time we have. i want to thank my guess in lisbon, felt philadelphia and in san francisco. and of course, i want to thank our viewers for watching us here at ortiz. see you next time and

remember across across the summer acceptance. and i'm here to plan with you whatever you do. do not watch my new show. seriously. why watch something that's so different. whitelisted opinions that he won't get anywhere else. welcome to please, or do the have the state department to see i a weapons bankers, multi 1000000000 dollar corporations. choose your fax for you. go ahead. i changed and whatever you do, don't want my show state main street because i'm probably going to make you uncomfortable. my show is called stretching time, but again, you probably don't wanna watch it because it might just change the wayne state

to take a fresh look around as a life kaleidoscopic isn't just a shifted reality distortion by power of tired vision with no real opinions. fixtures designed to simplify will confuse who really wants a better wills, and is it just as a chosen for you. fractured images, presented as fast. can you see through their illusion going underground again? the

monthly is because really that's what happened in this forest village, 18 years ago. witness test the names of those things that are still inform you the people that allow them to down arrested into the the fix acute for me is i've got to you for years. i sure i reach you and we name those who found and executed. 140000000 people.
