ah ah, it was in the 1950s that our secretary of state john foster dulles proclaimed our policy, his global ah, we started as a continental empire by clearing out native peoples and other foreign forces when we became overseas empire by taking islands in various parts of the world and then after the 2nd world war we became

a global empire. now we are playing on the whole billiard. ah, the united states has always had a variety of tools to use in it's a tax on other countries. economic sanctions are, are often just a beginning. another thing you like to do is place some military pressure on the countries that you're talking about. and there has to be an effort to demonize that country and the leader of that country. ah,

particularly in our own press and in the press of that leaders own country, americans loved to think there were intervening in other countries to overthrow evil people. and if that's true, you have to make the person look evil. and 1951. ottomans came to power in guatemala, after being elected by the people in washington. the u. s. president received all but with all the usual courtesies of a state visit. years ago, i wrote a book about how the united states over through the government of guatemala, in 1954. ah, the case a lot on law is a great example of american covert action during the period of the 1950s when covert action was at a pink country lost its legitimate government under hundreds of people lost their

lives. mm. ah, with you see if we all decided to do with it on them on the look in on. yeah. the on the yeah. on that for me to do i let me pull one, go ahead with you. so i know at

this time a giant american company, the united food company owned a huge amount of land in guatemala. ah, with much of that land they were not used like was just being held vacant. while many guatemalans are starving because they didn't have land to grow food, i am with the ample gabby i got out of the blood out in my own antibiotic. but both don't keep that. i used that old a bad. okay, let me go on. now i'm, i'm no one month and it's a, it's a way for lemme, and get those recalls those will that all of that when the annual. but again, if that is that normally i get an idea. yeah. i'm as you know, but again,

look at the end of sales off of a lift gate. now i let it, let it be. i love looking up in the, in so our president, our benz on the guatemalan government decreed a land reform program. this land reform program would have forced the united fruit company to sell its unused land, so it could be divided up and given to poor families. the united for the company was very unhappy with this. they went to the united states government, the u. s. government then concluded that the socialist orientation of guatemala was dangerous to the united states rule cuz they ask a, get it though by a go. i don't where vic was battling that was the outbound buddha and throw your head. he thought at the medical. yeah, i think i'm in operation can.

we're good. we would have been here. what are you? i won't go yet. this will go ahead what i think. i mean, a month later, civil war broke out. something like 200000 people were killed in that conflict over more than 30 years with the info. me. but i didn't know at all going that they like it though. an it guy old, but a thought was the latin. it's them out won't be near. won't be near samarnie yet then he i got his name in the vehicle on the thigh. come with

me for my uncle here. mm. i think see if you, are you scared enough with the amend? my thought. simple. do they, they could have been in this here, i'm thought, look at the end. what if that is that cost of it then then pick them up in the 2nd one is in total seed one. bit with the other. okay. right. okay. so people i last spoke with one of them there, but i'm in no hurry stages. so the 1st one is in the government, the,

we don't like shows bad faith by bothering an american company. then we convince ourselves that that company is our geopolitical enemy. and then we sell the intervention for as humanitarian intervention. we only do it to help them. we don't do anything for ourselves. in fact, we sacrifice ourselves for the good of others with

american involvement in the overthrow of the government of libya. the government to whom are kodachi was another example that calls on a number of impulses in the american intervention of spirit. ah, man. as mat csc was near saudi. huh. one, no, not. that could be a no hand and looked and if it had been with them, i'd only a laugh had any and now he attained what the fuck up as a c, a c a m. is that a law fee? medina, as he walked in as soon as were fee,

now american and then what's on that the amendment and that the house, the law at the huffman daily and bad issue with the whole will be, i can, you being a away will muscular, even of net additional up on the lee be what we thought of him as a bad leader, one we couldn't control. now he looked like he might be about to carry out our human rights atrocity. so we decided it was time to participate an operation to

overthrow gadhafi. and in that operation, of course he was kill. so we need it in the short term goal. get rid of gadhafi, depose that government. but then what happened? we didn't have a plan for what was going to come next. we thought that maybe by magic, some new piece, whole regime already. burge, everybody with cooperative things. together with michelle, i a

with media i'm within, obeyed center was a was a bit out of my burnett. i'm with douglas meds. it's mostly about the something today. ah. oh, a i'm up knocking mobile obama la we was. i'm up with extra finance. alaska in puzzles. fi, mozilla gum. ah. okay. b

ah, b a ah, they're had they were 30. i spoke earlier with her of what are your thousands of people still live in small towns and villages that have become the new frontline georgia where they call this area the greys a really ali from the rock was pretty me with that was only about

a year they will come with fresh arthur, this is or village olivia, they'll do. so it will know why it was funny because i similarly was from them or was it had in there are there for sure. berella. oh, no through. and where she has to go to lennox on roku or blue shield that tell us that she made a pretty of well actually it was that what does that that'll hit again. what. what do you mostly with before here? boy feel cool here. scott, your party grow your favorite them with because they didn't like, why do we have finished a visit with you? can you go to jim in the garden, then you should be here too. so

what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy, even foundation, let it be an arms race is on offense. very dramatic development. only personally and getting to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very difficult. time time to sit down and talk in the house. the local won't open up. somebody a more good look in my computer m work that actually how about ah ah

ah miss or behind the your on boss. uh huh. latino. com slash contribute to mama was evelyn sellers. korea couldn't and for coffee. my love them in for hut, or can they any or could it be mon hutton? not my lad. kind of whom was it? i do. we are newton myself. i kind of calibrated. ok. let them phillip about my mom was in. i had to be within them. what my mom shall they, if you just them and the what them and presenting on that. i love to help if you have any special fee, i'll boss costco, maya, who are p miniature, by any familial. i let him preserve sidney. i'm a company, peter. lo, what ah

ah ah, i said i wanna know because ego is above and below what a game with ah, ah, the cities wrote a famous history of the pell up uneasy and was what he observes is the war or the conflict does not usually break out with the bigger the smaller country pushing up and pushing up and finally attacking. that's not what happens. it's usually the bigger country that gets worried and then the tax. and you can see this

pattern through history. they call it sometimes the considered these crap. and it's dangerous for the future because we've, united states is the power that's been used to being on the top and is now being challenged. national. i don't know when that leisure mat, let me. yeah. what kind of a lot of the yeah. the had the math, but nobody and me shit at the school at the last get here and how do i live alone? i live medina publish but death allows him to get the wasn't the major. so yes, i lot, a lot of believe b to a to fee for said then, yet him feet. whoa,

whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, the this is lee. oh, um isn't ha, ha, ha, ha, ha ha! but so i've been in the in woman bulk of the vin number. we have a beautiful been the only in the left me

a day with ah, we believe that we are an exceptional nation. this is a phrase you hear a lot in united states. we call it american exceptionalism. it means that we have

a responsibility for the whole world. and we need to make rules for the rest of the world. because without us there will be chaos. ah, my name is dr. young site and i am a wine political scientists a 1993 and my country was invaded by the united states and we've been under an illegal and prolonged occupation ever since. i've dedicated my life to not only finding out why the united states invaded my country, but also how to bring the occupation to an in hawaii was a long term american project. it began with religious missionaries. they left from

boston in the 1820 to go to hawaii and lived there to spend the rest of their lives. civilizing the poor savages and barbarians as we thought, lived in hawaii. ah, mm hm. this is the all, any policy or in the back row? this was the executive monarchs building hawaii by 1893. it was already a constitutional monarchy. so it had 3 separate branches of government. it is, which is here, legislative and judicial, which is across the street mm. with

leader of the white hawaiian actually came to washington to win permission from the president of the united states to overthrow the government of the kingdom of hawaii. he received that permission. he went home, he organized a coup in which the hawaiian kingdom was overthrown. american marines were quickly landed to secure the new white government. and a few years later, hawaii became part of the united states. so this is the place that us marines landed. this road here is where they marked from honolulu harbor and they occupied this location right here when they invaded my country, the whole kingdom. so we're at right now. this is where cap smith, this is headquarters for the pacific command. and it overlooks per harbor and pro

harbor is a naval base for the united states. so it falls under the command structure of the pacific command. ah, what you was taken by the united states were invaded in order for the united states to control per harbor. because of hawaii's location, it's central central in the central pacific. so there's a central location that ships enter. hawaii ports after disarming, refurbish, leave home ports, re arm, and go back fighting a metaphor who it was engaged in wine island by money, by greed. and so he,

with relation to represent all the things that was happening and won't be 1819 and 930. so what we see rising out of the land out of the ocean are these giant monsters that are asked to read with documentation of allocation of documentation. that basically saying we're right is what we are. we're the inevitable truth. and there was also, again that the pi same that from the newspapers that was being cleaned. never huh. we've developed an unusual a point of view of the world because of our location. we have huge oceans and a couple of weak neighbors in mexico and canada. therefore, we've never had to have a foreign policy of clear co operation with others. we've been able because of our

power to impose our will on others. what we hear of hello come on a charter school high school level that we're going to be visiting share with you folks do it hello. come on on the thread over to you on your class. and so if you 40 feel like we already know, oh i was, is standing national on was his nation state and for 50 years he celebrated 8093. when we know that oh, united states of america illegally over through o e. now, how did the united states maintain that power, despite having more legal authority from a military, like i said, military threat of force, violence, perhaps weapon, who,

how else could they maintain power in hawaii, e, a over population. we just talked about how many guys spending 2 hours of the traffic was. all americans are with ha, yes. ah, we are the evidence o. d. nationalization where the evidence of the war cry. we are not the war crimes ourselves. what. what are ready is an independent country. all that was overthrown, any 293 was our government by the united states, not our country. so our country is still an independent state,

but were not in control of our independence were occupied. move. mm. this book overthrow is an attempt to show the times that america over through foreign governments over a long period in the united states, at least in a relative sense, is declining in power in the world. and we can still remain, and i believe will still remain a potent dominant force in the world. but we need to accept that the conditions of past decades don't exist anymore. and we're not used to this. we're not ready for this psychologically. americans have always been on top. we think of ourselves is always getting our way. and we're entering into a period when that's not going to be so easy. the challenge is,

can we adapt our habit of dominance to a more equal multi polar mm. erica than ah, ah last in july with your grade in which

a letter good with a question you're going to fight with o is your media reflection of reality ah, in the world transformed.
