twelve thirty pm in moscow these iraqi have lives the arab league making a last ditch effort to end bloodshed in syria demanding president assad talk to the opposition and withdraws tanks from the streets violent clashes between and how regime protesters and security forces have claimed some three thousand lives since the unrest started in march. the. washington stops its funding of unesco hours after the u.n. cultural arm grants palestinians full membership not a majority vote the move seen by many as a sign of the growing international support for palestine spending the un statehood

. and how we treat mainstream media resurrecting the russian spy ring case code name ghost stories as the f.b.i. releasing footage featuring sleeper agents uncovered in the u.s. allies during pleading from fertile chapman. and turning to syria now at the epicenter of the arab spring and speaking with author and historian f. william engdahl on who or what he thinks is behind the uprisings in the middle east and north africa. today we're talking to f.o. in the author of several books among them are gods of my wall street and the death of arthur american century and he is also a political risk consultant so we're going to discuss several more several of the most burning our political and economic issues in the world today mr engel thank you very much for joining us to be here to start off basically a never never before has the world faced so many economic and political problems

all at the same time would you say that these conflicts which we're seeing today are in terms of if you're in the dollar situation and what's happening in northern africa and in the middle east do these conflicts feed off each other are they somehow related or not particularly what i see all these conflicts the decision to libya the crisis with the dollar crisis with the american economy and the conduct of american foreign policy in the in what i was a period is all part of the breakdown of the entire super power structure that was built up after would be in the world war two and nobody in washington wants to do it just as nobody in britain a hundred years ago wanted to admit that the british empire was in terminal climb all of this is related to the attempt to keep this sole superpower not only intact

but to spread its influence over the rest of the problem in that. not surprisingly much of the world is not too good to see that so when you say that what's happening in the middle in middle east or northern africa right now is basically an attempt on the behalf of the united states to keep its came up very much so the. plan was first announced by george w. bush when he was president just after the invasion of iraq in two thousand and three at a g. eight meeting and it was called the greater middle east project and that project paper published a map of what they had in mind was the control and the. democratization as they call it of the entire islamic world from afghanistan pakistan down through iran syria. the persian gulf area the oil producing states there and across north africa all the way to morocco and the events of the so-called arab spring have been

planned years back and the instigators of those so-called spontaneous protests least twitter revolts and cairo and tunisia and so forth over the last months have all been. organized to the city was seen some of the people leaders of the protests have been trained in belgrade in serbia by old poor activists financed by the with state department. this thing has state department and u.s. intelligence all over it. and why why are they doing this well two things in my view one. there is vast wealth in the hands of the leading circles in the arab world vast wealth sovereign wealth funds of countries like kuwait to other countries but also just the resources and one of the agendas is to introduce as was done in the soviet union after nine hundred ninety one with the collapse of the soviet union the agenda of i.m.f.

privatization free market economy and so forth so that western banks and financial agencies and corporations could come in and take the plunder a second agenda is militarily in places such as libya or south sudan and all the so-called republic of subsaharan to militarize those oil sources that are directly strategic to china's future economic growth so this is all about controlling eurasia something's making abridgements we talked about it back in one thousand nine hundred seven in this famous book the grand czeska. and controlling especially russia and china and india potential cohesion of the eurasian countries economically and politically but as a result of. the so-called arab spring what can we honestly say that the middle east and. north african countries which have gone through with the changes how they really become more democratic egyptian tunisian friends of mine say that it's just

the opposite the economy is in far worse shape libya had the highest living standard in all of africa before the bombings of nato the day the country is in ruins because of those moments not because of. the economy of egypt is in dire straits the military remains in control they were in the military high command of egypt was sitting in the pentagon when the reports kicked off and waited for a signal from the pentagon when to return and take control of those events so while the instigators of the conflicts all turn was thinking you know the united states and it is on the european powers that you know look at libya will they be able to restore now latina's countries or is it not even in their interest i don't think give a moment's thought to normality your normalization i think big what their concern is especially the pentagon is military control the next step will be on this

so-called transitional national council in libya is to have that puppet government give the middle permanent basing rights inside libya something they never had before and could often solve so then some of the defenseless and those they have nato forces in there the africa army is coordinating this the pentagon's africa command which is. interestingly enough created just after trying his two thousand and six africa diplomacy were forty heads of african nations were invited to beijing and enormous deals were signed with the chinese companies for oil exploration and to build hospitals give soft loans everything the i.m.f. didn't do in africa in the last thirty years we chinese began doing and that had enormous results for china i know that you have a very interesting opinion of this who was you say pays for wars that were raised by the united states well you have to go back to the role in the last twenty or thirty years actually began in the eighty's with the role of the dollar as world reserve currency and china has an enormous trade surplus wal-mart is essentially an

outpost will try and ease manufacturing in america today so the three hundred billion plus surplus dollars that the central bank of china masses every year what do you do with that well there's few markets big enough to invest in a supposedly big could buy gold for their central bank reserves which they are doing by the way but the only place they can invest it as they see it right now or until very recently is either in dollars or in the euro. they've got something like three trillion dollars of u.s. dollar treasury bonds or bills as their reserves today so in effect the u.s. would not be able to finance the deficits that they're running. to wage those wars in afghanistan or wage so smores in iraq or in libya unless the chinese were buying u.s. treasury bonds so ironically the chinese are financing wars directly directed against

trying to use national interest for energy security what you say the united states is going to has any chance of resurfacing from the crisis that it's finding out something right now and the only way as they see if they can they can survive and keep the dollars their instrument wall street i'm talking about is the gods of money it's a call that in my book. is to find new areas of loot so the arab spring is directed against grabbing and privatizing the vast wealth of the arab oil world and the old world generally just as the use of the i.m.f. in the former soviet union was consciously designed by wall street and by washington in order to plunder the vast resources of russia and the former soviet union and warsaw pact countries so if the dollar does not retain its superior status do you think there is any likelihood that the euro were to win it or inherit it rather well one reason that there is this difficulty with greece and these

so-called the euro zone weaker economies is that this is part of a kind of a call for financial warfare between the dollar and the euro was reserve currency that started when the chinese started complaining publicly about the. flawed economic policy of of washington running up deficits and endangering the value of trying to use treasury bonds so now. just for that to became public. suddenly there was a greek crisis and the greek crisis was put in place in two thousand and two before greece and of the eurozone none other than goldman sachs the most powerful bank in america arguably today politically well connected in washington so. it's very clear if you follow the money trail that that may be. crisis was programmed to be get made at command by wall street and the us treasury as well as the federal reserve in order to defend the reserve currency role of the us dollar but i don't

see the european economy is endangered as a us because one great difference europe still produces things europe still has a real industry which i believe that from going back to at the beginning of our interview would you believe that there is some european countries that benefit from a situation rather than saying maybe i am a trance well i was just going to say sarkozy had a meeting in march when the whole. libya kicked off he invited leaders of the so-called transitional national council to paris and made them whispered sweet nothings in their ears about having control of the oil resources of eastern libya and poured money weapons and cia and the french intelligence have been pouring arms into these insurgent groups inside libya this is an armed insurrection financed by nato countries in libya it's an old peaceful twitter revolution of a bunch of kids who have a dream of american style democracy or something this is raw power grab by the

french but what do you predict right near play and what do you think will happen in the you know i mean that any troops will have to pull out at some point and then worked well lou. i imagine in iraq like scenario or afghanistan what you have in afghanistan you have seventeen permanent u.s. military bases in afghanistan most of them air bases who are not bombing the taliban and they're preparing for a coming war and perhaps ten years with china or maybe with russia they've got a military bastion in the heart of central asia something that they never had to win the cold war. so i think libya's has just been for some of what role do you think process it playing in the in the events which are relevant right now i think russia given the history going back more than more than the cold war era. russia can play a very stabilizing role as a as a counter force to this highly dangerous strategy of the greater middle east

project of nato in the us in that region russia can play a very important role blocking. something untoward events from the side of the un security council in syria i don't think trying to agree as he did with the case to the u.n. action aside from the action in syria but in more ways than that russia can play a very constructive role i think in the region to try to counter this destabilization i would hope they do. thank you very much for your time. those who are fascinated with history. to do those who have a sweet tooth. to those who can't live without the sky. and
