rheims this it's open to question what happened but what of what he thought about the terrible images well a meaningless bleak once again you drink about the. suffering taking place in the middle east people not really wanting to tell the truth about the reasons of power and empire in the middle east and we're going to find out i hope you know who's responsible but i just i just. am of the opinion that. we've got to be bring honest and candid about the role of the us and. it should never court a nation of israeli defense forces any u.s. army but we shall see we shall see it's also of course important week because it's the 75th anniversary of the united states nuclear attack on hiroshima i've got to say angela davis on this show endorsed endorsed joe biden in november no i'm

chomsky is endorsed joe biden do you think that joe biden will save us from another nuclear conflagration as we commemorate the dead of hiroshima were you do my duty to the world at the ginger you sit at my own government because. we're all of course now we've got it and military units round we're russia and china have 30. 30 we've got $4800.00 military units in the whole world including the united states are they more importantly legacy is one in which we have to take very seriously the real issue when the party at all militarism at home and abroad the unbelievable a materialist i'm a spiritual decay in the empire that we're talking about and then of course the white supremacy not just the black beat but indigenous people brown people arabs muslims jews per iranians and so forth so that just and loudest as angela i am quite had practices coalitions so i could see bowling for biden in

a swing state but i can never get divorced an architect of the largest mass incarceration system in the modern world will target poor people disproportionate black and brown or people or was or bragged about being part of the architecture of the invasion occupation are iraqis over after me and precious iraqis feel on it it us and made it an occupation not a mumbling word. from anybody for the full part in the republican party yes there are some except bernie sanders and rock on you except barbara leak but for the most part not a moment were so i love. and i may have fact if the f.b.i. had a choice between a deal liberal disaster or a leo asked task 'd i would go to the older will disaster that's about me it is a neoliberal disaster his milk toast is mediocre he is a new liberal centrist and he tied to wall street he's tied to pentagon he's tied

to militarism and he was a great mage responsible for is jewish and all races prison system that was still coming to terms with in the killing fields on the killing fields of american get killed and barrio so that. where we're at on president moment run we really aren't we really want to pit. the lowest in the history of the species to species and so we go under given the ecological catastrophe or nuclear catastrophe we were distilling levels of wealth inequality that are out of control that rediff running much then the levels of corrupt shun me i think for example oh the great do it just gets worse last note from undergrad all the sick man i'm a spiteful manimal some pleasure out got liver disease americans a sick impact is a spiteful impact it's a most unpleasant and dark we've got the number one of the human being on the

inside we've got some movement on the inside we've got a magnificent courageous and visionary citizen on the inside but we are losing we are losing we're resisting but we're still losing the greed the hatred wall street pentagon is they are in control of the empire and they are taking off and the sad thing is that rest of the world has to deal with some of the ugly consequences and effects but i'm not i'm not despair i'm not paralyzed but despair but i'm very honest and candid about the dark a course your president donald trump would be the 1st to say that iraq was a mistake he would have said only the other day that one of the united states as great as mistakes was to be in the middle east he may not share your a ideas or the hedges of many about climate change but he's the one who's saying intervention has been wrong that foreign policy has been wrong and he even argues that mass incarceration is a is

a biden policy is an obama policy. well knowing president 'd trump has facilitated even more intensely dishes treatment the press is our students he is not just in cahoots with nathan yahoo nathan yahoo being the reactionary ceria leaders in a phobic to the core and has no feeling what so ever for precious ousting is he a truck or like white on rice like wet on war he also facilitate the kind of the business treatment of oppression by the sisters in yemen mediated through saudi arabia mediated through the elites unaccountably beat an accountable. prince a monarch and princes and so forth so that when he talks about is he got a critique of the united states in the middle east he's lying yonder states has blood on it and in saudi arabia yemen has blood all it's an intel a beat in gaza and the west bank i don't know what he's talking about he took

a bow with the united states should never have intervened no this is always already is offering those armies could not exist in israel and saudi arabia without us support without imperial support and when we invite we invite israeli ambassador we have ideas or any about to the letter of the program but it netanyahu would certainly refute any charge of violence except in self defense and britain which played $550.00 fellows that he had been using a one month period spare me we were born yet night but not last night but this is exactly what a cowardly when on principle powell clear what gates to say could be a trip it will be it moti be it was a narrow in brazil be at the hungry or see the gangster is asia not the world moving toward we'll fascist rule and that's where our duty must be and of course truckers are also of that way he new york fashion well you mention saudi arabia

britain together with the united states applies weapons that are used on yemen britain says it has a robust. selling policy and it's not responsible for war crimes of any kind in yemen. sounds like another russian position that would period least don't want to take responsibility for the damage from well for their own savagery it's fascinating how the barry authorizes the devastation claim innocence that innocence itself was already a crime before we get to because greek crimes oh barbarity too often as a result of imperial activity be it britain france be it united states be russia be it china all empires and the look of the grand inquisitor dusty heskey using that miracle and mystery and authority into magic rationalization mystification in order to justify tyrannical acts despotic acts anti-democratic

acts that subordinate those last known call every day people and i'm a radical democrat emetic crist always start with the plight and predicament of the wretched of the earth the old who are priceless and precious but those who are viewed as disposable poor and working people all around the world of matter what color no matter what national identity we've got to be internationals cross the border with blessed be with my roma brothers and sisters yesterday and my ballot but was as of yesterday off not going to do it at home because of the power outage but we have to have international solidarity in the name of will morality and spirituality that we will not just empathized be a solidarity with those who were against predatory capitalism we are against almost all be a trad phobia any form of white supremacy any form of promise supremacy in the form of patriarchy if i eat ideology or warm about

a nation that loses sight of the precious humanity of each and every one of us and that's just not an aspect idealism that a way of being in the world that as a verb even more than a virtue being an action being part of people's movements in order to push back the forces of evil without a form those forces take. yeah just to have skin characters tend to have something epiphany but the people that got trump elected apparently working class people who'd lost out because of globalization how do you see all of those different identities of politics l g b g q rights race how do they work with clus because surely to some people the reason trump could win is precisely because of the working class traditionally that base from which progressive politics is a much nobody you're right now of course those is good politics have to be called

into question is it psychosis insight into literary genius that we're talking about but at the same time you're right that it was working class folk who were misled by truck because the working class was so devastated under the neo liberal rule of obama that did he deliver for last week deliver for it not the liberal working people working people were looking for alternatives are left green party you know i was part of and supported our left in america is to we can treat so when we look for an alternative the choice between on the one hand the other but we get a ruling class and they are fastening it really exists on the truck acted as if he was populist but it's very clear he tied big money he tied it big military it will scapegoat the most vulnerable in terms of mexicans muslims red indians black folk and gays live in a trance and he is able to connect with enough of the white working class

65 percent white men voted for trial 52 percent white women who have a truck so you've got a racial art here you've got a racial trajectory just going off and we have magnificent white brothers sisters who are part of the black class method we have been in the white. part of serious struggle against white supremacy but it got a lot of. and that causes i easily misled by the straw man. and this is of course the challenge that plato saw in the republic he said show me a democracy and i'll show you citizens who were shot through with the ruling passion and ubiquitous ignorance now will result in the rise of a strongman to rise up the tyrant of death played on the republic going all the way back to 360 some b.c. he had it in sight even though he was a great critic of democracy in a democracy because he killed mentors upper east he had an insight how do we get to the working class how do we get for fall so that they're not misled and marched off

all consciousness so they're not channeling their existence in a way that reproduces their own no question reproduces their own domination we see this all around the world fascism very good at listening to the same thing it looked at the same thing frankel did the same thing these are loose on the fascism of the present but so on are kind of text well in terms of trying to ensure the misleading every day because they are separate meetings trumps all orders are deeply suffering but it rather scapegoat the most vulnerable in terms of the degraded. black. lesbians and arabs and muslims and immigrants and mexicans rather than confront the most powerful president ls i'll just stop you have more from cornell west after this break.

as the u.s. economy was booming growing numbers of people were made on the us. you can work 40 hours in a week and still not have enough to get housing everybody believes america still is the land of opportunity the reality of it is we're not financially equality and the lack of affordable housing for a living minimum wage gave many people no choice though that's been a problem with the city bruno's turn i'm excited told you stay way out almost all twosomes of the for the for is no answer because yes that requires resources the most vulnerable were abandoned on the streets to become the invisible klux.

welcome back i'm still with professor cornell west if we move up michael is there's something wrong with the elites in in your society i know you've talked about f. scott fitzgerald before they read the great gatsby is a great tale of you make it in this world you're going to do well what is wrong with education in a country that has pretty used so many critiques that i guess echo what you've just been saying yeah i'm glad you brought this stuff is because the student course the

princeton interest in right now understood the spiritual teaching in the oracle kuti of the ruling class all. most he understood the substitute prosperity for magnanimity they had hardly any sense of more excellence a spiritual greatness is reduced down to things in possession then come out of and it reminds me of the greatest figure 8 for it was eugene o'neill and the iceman cometh the great as an american empire ever written for the state in what did he say what does it profit a nation that game the old world and lose it so tied to it on the idolatry in which it is obsessed with re power well status and spectacle with no moral or spiritual substance that is a moment for the american get it that's the home of the decline and fall of the american empire that's what eugene o'neill was talking 'd about and eat and ask up as general very close bit on the same register in john the scenes through

the emptiness and but cooties so much that what american life in this obsession with the pleasures and military power and status and the inability to at the deepest level this is shakespearean this is. the suffer from the inability to cultivate the capacity to love the love less ness. no matter how much money you have no matter what your status is if you can't learn how to receive love 2 give love that those yes your brothers care most of the bond hail as those who will suffer from the incapacity. and death of marketing understood i come from an equal black. 100 years in the united states but dishing out so much love john coltrane's tony martin be love it martin luther king love who are just to be one to love and to me the love we have got reach oh yeah we all got to be frank he loves

life the whole lives with us hopefully available your on your website i didn't even get out of here no you know the people that have listened to coltrane the people that have read these works many of them are in the d.n.c. we know from wiki leaks how they tried to destroy bernie sanders campaign in 2016 and they didn't feel they didn't feel what they were doing was anything to do with fascism they thought it was to do with stopping fascism so they say i don't understand this is right around this time because they try to tell us on this being the candidate what do you how do you characterize the d.n.c. has as a system in your politics what i mean it is in more trouble now is that we've been because their ears in fact tremendous critiques of the status and democratic party it looked as if after the november primary that bernie sanders and all of us

together need in turn or others that we were going to win we were really beginning to move in a way that we were headed toward the white house and then had the. it illogical unity facilitated by rock obama with me we have rather all of them came together dropped out within a few days the black neo liberal leadership that is and to monica in black leadership we do money and black our tix came together and lo and behold we were pushed out we were defeated but let me say this that this stablish macnow very much like republican party establishment was undercut by a truck that young people on the street the black clad madam who they understand not just the limitations of the neo liberal leadership no matter what color but they know that it cannot deliver look at what a pandemic right now it cannot deliver safety it cannot live protection cannot

deliver education cannot deliver goods and services why because the in part in shambles when you have so much greek and corruption and indifference for the suffering with no public life no public health care no public robust public interactions and we can't even hardly have a public conversation what happens to a demographer you sleep on as hit as you know and maybe you call them apologists for empire they will point to the black faces the people of color in high places they will talk about l.g.b. t.q. people in high places maybe there are even some indigenous peoples in high places in american politics the american so much life how dangerous is it that these people are installed there as a beacon to show that your view of america your view of the united states is fundamentally flawed because your country is a tale of progress. well the good in of those is good has a wonderful mother who crystal palace went back they keep it won't do it back since

edifice. saley had and is wonderful shy is glass menagerie well what happens when it becomes more colorful with races same class are same imperial policies same levels of poverty same levels of decrepit education same levels of unemployment and underemployment same levels up on the inability young assets to decent housing but it's because you've got black brown women at up at the glass menagerie in the crystal palace all really now behave themselves into reproducing the same kind of deck it is the same kind of decay but now of course we. race relations same way looking looking better you don't measure the plight of black people all women are brown people by how their elite are doing you know the play in

terms of what the prisons look like what did neighborhoods look like what their employment actually is what levels of health care they have but that's precisely the attempt of america to shift serious talk about the plight of poor folk to the. mobility of the net has to be radically called into question that is happening on the street right now in the u.s. in pop. but but in the streets i mean what is different about these uprisings since is more it's in los angeles in $165.00 and before and after now we're seeing images of tear gas or federal troops in there no national guard it has to be sent. to your link of how black lives matter as a movement can in any way respond to what's going on if there are well if certain numbers of people are being shot dead in the streets or killed by security

forces of the united states that alone frightened to go and demonstrate. well i mean with the public lynching of brother floyd jr you certainly are going to have waves of resistance the beautiful thing is that you have the whole colas coming together and making the connection between not just police power and police murder but between police power least murder wall street car wall street crimes and pentagon power and pentagon crimes once you make those connections 'd and connect to them are you can't make them up the mix may develop a could make the family look em up make rabbi abraham joshua ash ash able to make. the greatest intellectual alone with no chomsky and been making for most of his intellectual life will once every day people begin to make those connections then we're on to something those connections are being made more now than they were before and yet it really waves of resistance every wave of critique has its own distinctive staff and there is a certain kind of cycling is true. we had you know more people dying it wasn't very

much more black folk out we will more people die less people die here but now there's a cities unsettled and some president that's a good son after george ford was killed there were demonstrations all around the world in fact in our around the world there were there were demonstrations against multi-racial into intersectional but london fall is washington on on foreign policy specially on apparently your biggest enemy china but for the white house says what gives good gives the d.n.c. and they are in c. the confidence of china as you said surrounded by bases the united states won't retaliate militarily to what it sees as provocations by nato in washington. yeah i mean it is hard to say who he is how to say you can imagine what the golden rule international relations looks like. 2 russia had troops in mexico and china

that you know it would last about 30 seconds when you have american troops around who are russians yet to be very honest you know in piles are empires and they're concerned about their people they're concerned about that territory after all just stuck to the domination when you can imagine what a one standard looks like in the same would be true with china when you when you when you begin to be provocative. then they're going to have different kind of responses i don't know what response will be as the as the acts of provocation intensify it's hard to say but i mean right now we've got these 3 empires in a word china russia usa all 3 zones formed to decay domination all forms of dog and we have to be connected to radically democratic small d forces no empowering dissenting voices that are empowering working people that

aren't exemplary movements and by example what i mean is leaders of integrity who are willing to tell the truth and will more than likely have to give their lives because those who are committed to the struggle for the wretched of the earth are on the road to crucifixion that's the way the world is but their blood our blood fertilizes the next wave of resistance and critique what we learn from the black move. well i suppose there's one difference between beijing most here in washington and that's the beijing in what moscow claim to comprehend the dangers of climate change whereas washington doesn't believe it would isabella what is the power of k. street while being on the things you've been talking about and on perhaps the most fixes tensional crisis we have. fossil fuel effective climate change.

or i mean k. street in general generates legalized bribery a normal last corruption within the halls of congress so the brick house that is supposed to be done house of the people caters much more to the donor than the benefactors than it does the suffering people themselves that's precisely why so many american citizens look at the system and the state and see it cannot reform itself because the money it's all well me has been colonized by the lobbyists who are being late to financial elites just so that it makes it very difficult for those of us in the streets to feel as if we can actually have the kind of impact that we like but we do it because it's right because it's war and because it's just and so when it comes to ecological catastrophe 'd in which the whole species the planet itself and you still have the greek short term thinking the up

session with profit you can begin to see just how bouckaert predatory capitalism is with the species and in regard to our very preservation. thank you for this. proposed. experiment. the experiment was a. girl

stormed several government buildings in beirut calling for justice and accountability after tuesday's devastating explosion security forces used tear gas and rubber bullets to disperse huge crowds gathered in the center of the lebanese capital. the country's prime minister has signed it says corruption was the blame for the tragedy and calls for early elections and. rescue teams continue to search for survivors in the ruins of the beirut port area we hear from a nurse who saved 3 newborns minutes after the blast. and i'm sure you need to intensive care units to come in the rubble is when it started when we heard some of the units it was terrifying.
