it's out that the solution proposed to protect us power in this new post primacy environment is however more of the same more surveillance more propaganda sorry strategic manipulation of perceptions and more military expansionism so if it's broke don't fix it. what is the definition of insanity again now let's start watching the whole. thing. with the. real thing with. the body. like you that i got. with. the.

golden boy in the watching the hawks i am i robot and i'm top of the falling out of the empire is in collapse. according to official i mean it's one thing when you hear it on the street now it's official they got it and print this report is saying like it's getting frayed were collapsing we got a hold to our rule of the world but but but i thought they just said that there wasn't an american empire that that was all a conspiracy theory not anymore or do you believe that. there is that is probably real that we're sitting on this precipice where it's this post we're not in charge anymore we're not an empire right after they spent the last five respect the last twenty years telling us what an empire we're just you know what you keep hearing it's amazing how the turn of the tide once they actually see it crumbling it's interesting what they pointed to his reasons let me walk you through a few of them oh please one of the big ones they say is russia and china yes the presence of russia and china in their pursuit of their own mad passionate interests is basically seen and they admit candidly in the report that that that is

a threat to undermine us of authority because they dared to seek a new distribution of power and authority commensurate with their emergence as legitimate rivals to u.s. dominance so because russia and china basically want to be considered equals that is a threat to us don when they want to be well they want to be recognised. as sovereign nation it's and resonated equally in the world community i know weird isn't it that this really was like the bully going like the kids are not these kids aren't just doing what i said on the playground anymore and somehow we're supposed to fix that what's interesting too is when you look at us media and things like that all of the things that the pentagon is deeming as threats are also the bad guys and us media i mean you look at it like they love iran and north korea together oh my former yeah i know they were a little bit deliberate facetious but over for that are the report reveals that iran and north korea are neither the products of nor are they satisfied with the contemporary or are seen at a minimum in time to destroy the reach of the u.s.

led order and to what they perceive to be their legitimate sphere of influence they're also resolved to replace the order locally with the new rules dictated by that. they want to be governed by themselves and people in their own neighborhood as opposed to having people from thousands of miles away telling them what to do you're just shocking shocking shocking that i can't even imagine in my right. you know we're looking at the report to go there are going to be there was an interesting bit of truth that came out of it truth there is no deal here is so true with yes there was some truth about facts some analysis about the yes the truthiness the truth but. the recordings of the report what they're saying is that the most dangerous causes of civil unrest and mass destabilization are facts that are damaging to the global reputation of the united states seriously these are categorized and a couple of ways there's fact inconvenient which are details that by implication

undermine legitimate authority and erode the relationships between governments and the government for example facts that reveal how government policy is corrupt incompetent or undemocratic then there's fact paralysed still of this fact paralyze refers basically to national security leaks from whistleblowers came from. chelsea manning i'd work snowden these things are you know fact first then there's my personal favorite fact toxic are truths exposed in the absence of contacts and therefore poison important political discourse again the investigative journalist that you have spoken about nazis i met writes in short the us army war college study team believe that the spread of facts challenging the legitimacy of american empire is a major driver of its decline not the actual behavior of the empire which such facts point to that is the thing that blows my mind it's like come on it's true these are mad things but they're facts that make us uncomfortable and make us not

look as fabulous as we think we are so incredible we are like a teenage like you know we're like a teenager like trying to maintain popularity in high school and beating up people and not. just to the people around and you know that that we just be the love is like no don't don't talk bad about me and it's almost even worse it's like now that person has grown up and they're in their thirty's and forty's and now it's this like don't fix the problem just let's just botox our entire. going down the only at the end user not. found in the report were to double down on surveillance and double down on militarism an expansion of the absolutely ridiculous thing. so according to the pentagon our great american empire may be crumbling do we really know how far the empire is already extended to shed some light on just what kind of presence our military and intelligence agencies have had in some of the world's ugliest situations sean stone recently sat down with paul williams and award winning investigative journalist and former consultant to the f.b.i. his most recent book operation gladio details the extent of the cia's network of

paramilitary cells across europe and he believes that history may be coming back to haunt us now so now you mention gladio earlier let's talk about gladio because obviously there's a historical aspect to gladio which we know has to do with stay behind armies basically the fascist elements the posts in the post world war. former nazis and basically fascist groups that were being utilized by the western intelligence apparatus of nato and basically were used not only as they behind armies in case of the soviet invasion but oftentimes were engaging in terror attacks in the west and then blame on their east leftist whether it's red brigade or he socialist move parties right to basically try to create political chefs internally in the west yes as a matter of fact as you know like during levy one the years of lead in italy when there were these horrific bombings even the main positives from time they were all done

by really the stay behind units of gladio units spurred on by the cia funded by the cia and all these attacks were blamed on the communists and of course communists were completely completely completely you know innocent so it was a ploy but we know this not only in italy but we've done much you know late in in germany the homburg bombing throughout latin america i mean the dictatorships the dirty war in in argentina this is all part of glad to go and that the figures that played in gladio at that time are incredibly interesting because one of course is jose maria berg oleo who was called princes. the current pope because he was well precisely no one really knows can account for what he did during the dirty war argentina which was brutal obviously the execution of so many people who were considered leftists right socialists of all ages. the priest who would support the

liberation theology i mean he got a rose she turned out turned over two of his priests not only the members of their congregation but the priests themselves turn them over to the hotel where they were tortured for months and months and months where members of their congregation were loaded on interest for telling. peers flown over the ocean and dumped off this is all part of pope francis and it was all part of gladio war right which of course never heard of that but it frets with the cardinal basically he was just a regular bishop at the time he was a provincial general of the society of jesus he was a jesuit i see just one of the generals but so this obviously does harken back to italy a lot of the apparatus of the find it well it's of the the the financial apparatus which you cover in your book about the money laundering that goes that went through the catholic church to the vatican bank historically but also the ties to the mafia who were obviously connected to the drug world and then that tied them to our own

intelligence particularly cia that has been gauging in the traffic whether it was heroin and opium from the golden triangle during the vietnam war years or during the afghan war in the eighty's obviously we see a lot of the opium profits opium being a lot longer from afghanistan through turkey and the profits being a lot of the paddock and bag so where does where do we ultimately stand as far as understanding the relationship of gladio past to present to you in the restocked. it never stopped. most recently it concerns the up to the operations of glad to go to are focused in central asia central focused in not only turkey but syria iran i mean that's where the focus is and for

a while it was it was libya but it's still going on that has never never never stopped but what are the indications that we can be sure that it's continuing ok beginning with let's begin with just one going back to nineteen ninety eight we had the bombings of the u.s. embassies in kenya and came to me cancerians it. we know that right now all the documents have come out that the person that did the press in the cia said was guilty of perpetuating calm during these acts was a guy by their mohammad ali like a fire muhammad ali right he was from california he allegedly turned radical and he joined al qaida and then me he bombed the embassies oh really happen is this guy was not taking part in in the activities in afghanistan or

pakistan at all he was in the u.s. military bases being trained once again by army intelligence when he was finally captured really by mistake he was brought on trial and guess what happened he disappeared disappear into thin air right then you have of course the mysteries surrounding nine eleven you've got your false flag attack which is a characteristic of gladio we'll look at saddam hussein look at gadhafi look we're right right now about assad every day goes on assad right now oh he's creating weapons of mass destruction is make creating chemical weapons so we have to bomb them again this is all gladio. you see if it was the false flags that have no basis in reality at all and yet the american people buy it time and time again it seems that every time there's a major a major push by assad's regime or the iraqi regime to actually depose the isis base

we get an allegation that immediately pops up of chemical weapons being used and then u.s. forces start to shift you know again against against the assad regime right i could scream i could scream i could scream because number one of my very rarely talk to your point it's insightful but this is what happened and you know what. you know what's happening right now with that with that with that whole situation. we created isis. i mean isis is no less than the people up and islam bird no less than google and is a cia creation john mccain for heaven's sake was over there with the with the isis officials we created them they came from the group the syrian liberation front these two organizations combined and they they they morphed into isis it's our creation we create them we still direct them when isis warriors are injured in

battle where they transport their transport of heaven sent to israel they're treated by the israelis in israeli hospitals and brought back to battle openly the rebels have admitted acknowledge that they've been supported by israel and they've if they israel for helping them in fact arms are oftentimes caught israeli arms are caught on route to the rebel groups but when it comes to this then the grand scheme the grand chessboard game. obviously we're seeing the neo con strategy wes clark talked about it destabilize and overthrow the governments of iraq somalia sudan libya syria iran you know this was the strategy that he talked about over fifteen years ago yes and obviously we've seen it come to fruition to a large extent but what is their game is ultimately is it just continuing to destabilize the sovereign regimes that that oppose the will of the various financial oil conglomerates or is it to create just total chaos in this entire region well the ultimate goal of course is much wealth you know real wealth

comes from going to resources our money is you know distracted it's not backed by anything but real wealth comes from natural resources be gold. be an oil. be it heroin which is the third most variable commodity in the world right now another reason we're in afghanistan but. the end of the game the game can be is being played to be won it's not a game that will go on added for the better so though the end of the game is is total economic control of the world. as we go by court watchers don't forget to let us know what you think of the topics we've covered of facebook and twitter see our poll shows at our two dot com coming up or today on your part of responses reports the controversial back of the yards neighborhood and the sell side of chicago and then travel to wall street codes the new language of artificial intelligence state to.

i really think that liberal democracy easy in deep trouble to deliberately democratic politicians has sort of created their own soul of what matters and they're leaving more and more in enlarging the store the sense i would say liberal democracy has really reached its limits. people with stories to tell. the tale so desire of her.

insight. could still play unusual centrists. builders. who say first and witnesses. they're here to speak their truth here. in the us a child can choose an army course in school. with retired officers as teachers really don't. recruit will says to you if the cadet is interested in going in the military but we don't recruit ourselves. the pentagon is funding a program to boost interest in the military among teenagers your chance to step up to an apollo so that comfortable with yourself. things you can't go wrong with the military it's

a great stepping stone for whatever career you want to do but some veterans are willing to tell enthusiastic children a little more they ask me call of duty is a very popular first year video game. it's play and that's because the military like call of duty to turn off call of duty oh yeah well you can't turn off work and lot of these kids just don't hear. the darker side does the pentagon allow them to be told or does it just need more recruits. for the truth because of the. oh oh .

chicago a city we can't seem to stop caring about in the recent media reports on crime just this week a seventy year old man was shot and killed on the south side when peace when police believe he was caught in a gang then gang related crossfire to understand what may be fueling this tragic spiral of violence r.t.s. on your part will travel to the south side neighborhood known as the back of the yards here's her report. like most centers of american industry and capital everywhere you look in downtown chicago it's evident there as well according to the laws of economics were taught in school that would perhaps mean some of it has trickled down to the south side but it hasn't this crazy laos several friends to gun violence. just recently had a killer. march out of. his funeral was two weeks ago

graduated from high school. was incarcerated once half a misdemeanor. and i can he still can get it i met jonathan at the precious blood ministry of reconciliation a center established in the back of the yards neighborhood which invites members of the community to come discuss their experiences or just hang out in safety or he now works with local youth precious blood was established by a group of priests and sisters who decided to step in and provide opportunities and space for young people otherwise scarce on this side of town people who are always wonder i always expect the same question why do people lie why do people say whatever they buy whatever they do to get they money i mean it's plain a sample if you really think about if you sit back and think. if you walk through this community tell me how many stores you see how many stores you see how many.

fresh food markets like how many places out what what do we have in our community that we can go in. and i will work on one do this in and they actually open invite so we were all bones in arms and i will have the schools on the south side or either underfunded or closed all together in two thousand and fourteen chicago mayor rahm emanuel shut down fifty four public schools fifty four on the poorest south or west sides stephen grew up in this neighborhood schools like schooling while one. school like this we did all our going to uproot us like i want they want to mean we had all our going to putus what is abundant in this neighborhood illegal guns in two thousand and sixteen chicago recovered to one illegal gun for every hour of the year father dave kelly is the executive director of precious blood wash

a cargo house and a lot of times i'll say this was in the strictest gun laws there are but we're right next to indiana and we're right next to. communities that. don't not have strict gun laws and then you know the market of selling guns coming up from the south you know you hear that all the time as well i'm so i see a lot of assault rifles now. grown up out and i've been around people that had a k forty seven s automatic. sixteen s and all the type of not just hang. assault rifles that i'm sure someone in our neighborhood so yeah that does that is the perfect question like where are these guns come from hearing the conditions described by people here no economy coupled with gun availability high rates of crime seem predictable as light going up as right. now it is. like. you can take the bus when you want to no mo you gotta watch go back we

welcome history you can even go to the stone to cornerstone without nobody you know bag trying to shoot you as we speak we have the same gang killing each other is not . the diff games company killin. the game it's the people we grew up with killing each other like my friend is a guy killed two weeks ago he was killed by someone we all grew up where we all grew up together and to know that i went to my homey firm rule and in our studio no to get it killed them is like wow the city messed up like you know freeness like. my homie kill my homie offering to kill my friend could she say he say stuff it's easy to stop the story their father kelly says the media portrayal of the violence ignores its roots we have too much violence i mean that's accurate and too many guns cops accurate. what's not accurate is that that's the only thing going on in

these communities as though every young person who is of color is somehow involved in the gang that's not accurate and that it's a gang issue it's really not a gang issue the gang is really a symptom of a larger issue which is a disconnect not feeling like to belong you know they have guns they want to go out and shoot people that's the that's the story and that's not really the story the story is you have the reality is you have young people who have been neglected for generations they're fed this is generational poverty we've we as a society and i'm talking about the government i'm talking about the church and i'm talking about society and the whole have neglected the communities for a long time mary menu well has collaborated with the trumpet ministration to address chicago's violence by welcoming twenty federal agents from the bureau of alcohol tobacco and firearms but do people here think more police will make them safer own think so. you think so one of my friends was incarcerated piece of blood

yeah. they put those over co-founder i suppose for a gun to let him go that's that's like a bonus for now any time you go any time of going out and cause what a gun you know how good they look what people don't don't really get. the streets look out for the streets. just as well as the offices of that office how many times i've d. the wrong thing to cover up their fellow offices so i was like come on. this is so if if if we go be. structure government. go for everyone office the office of the not just people in poverty stricken what solution could the government look to other than policing precious blood's model seems to work it's rooted in the philosophy put forward by father greg boyle of los

angeles nothing stops a bullet like a job. agreement there because when you think about it. if not on the street they actually at work work that's less time spent in having a carrier going that's why i like the work that i do because we create those programs so what i have some to do in this program costs program but i. stopped. if i can tell me the model is we have been i mean stop come to this in the fly call my straight. man on the meese money and i want to go to do it the better way so i come back trying to get my job the precious blood community purchased a home to run at the providing on the job construction training for use they also have a community garden and arts center where they feature work at enemy alongside those in the community including the breathtaking work of adult. davis

a man sentenced to life without possibility of parole at fourteen years old he was convicted as an accomplice to game related murder though it was proven he never fired a gun his art depicts his own struggle and the struggle of chicago as young people do have feelings they do care. but it's overwhelmed by the sense of. of numbness if you will going through life not have feeling that kind of care or connected to community and things like that this scenario one reason that like a lot of here is not a neighbor who still not a lot. it's perhaps when looking at the art on display at precious blood when you can most clearly see reality that people here on the south side would be capable of creating anything if only they were given brushes rather than guns in chicago the new parm pill or t.v. . one of the most influential philosophers of the twentieth century lived with

victim. had this to say the limits of my language are the limits of my world and the folks at the facebook artificial intelligence research lab discovered that we may be always a little bit limited from the world of artificial intelligence by language c two negotiating robot named bob and alice had this exchange regarding the price of a fictional item bob tried relentlessly to get alice to budge from a negotiating position by stating i can i everything else but alice unfazed by bob's negotiating skills required were built repeatedly balls have zero to me to me to me to be to me to me. i think humans often use special dialectics like hand signals because in some instances it's more productive but bob's baby won't be able to use this language they're going to have to stick big wish for now but many wonder if allowing bots to create their own more efficient language could be helpful if we could just learn it however the bot exchange between bob and alice

could be really cool with it and get that crude oil. which you know as you are to me to me to me to be all right. that's the heart all right that is our job really very remember everyone in this world we're now told we're above the nuptial it's all wall i love you i am tired robot i'm top of the wall us keep on watching those hawks are great day and night everybody. imagine being six thirty five and you have a career and a career involves using your i phone in your computer and things like that in an office and perhaps she started getting headaches circular teeth you're going to have to stop doing all this and this is tell you lou the minutes must be free my
