ah, the united states has always had a variety of tools to use in its attacks on other countries in economic sanctions are, are often just the 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, particularly in our own press. and in the press of that leaders own country.

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

ah, with this are you to do with them or to pull up in or in the area on the bill? yeah, on them or even today let me for one will read lisa bye. ah, at this time a giant american company, the united food company owned

a huge amount of land in guatemala. a that way and they were not like was just being held vacant. while many guatemalans are starving because they didn't have land to grow food. i am with the m a l, e a. and e. we either or both. don't keep the letter. i used that with medical, i may go on with no, all of this, no one month and it's a, it's a way for lemme and get those that a little wrinkles. those. well that all they, when you know what, again, if that is i don't know you only, i get idea. yeah. i'm as you know, but if you look at them, then also of them. i found that in a lift gate, now i let it be. i lou, i love looking up in the end 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 kasinsky it though, bye or go. i don't where victory battle and they was the outbound buddha film, and thunder head. he thought, my play up, i think i'm in operation can we're good. we're we're, we're a pretty good. all right. yeah. well,

i wonder if this will go ahead with that. 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 in me, but i didn't know at all going that they can see so black and a guy. oh, but a thought was the lateral. it's am, i won't be near. i'm be now samar, dathan. yeah, i got his name in the condo that come with me.

for my go via. mm. i see you. are you scared of the, with the amanda, my thought cm today. they may have been in this video and look at the work if that is that course other than that helped them out in the 2nd one is in those see one bedroom with the other. okay. like to see how okay, so people are those folders for them like that. then there are 3 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 as humanitarian intervention, we only do it to help. 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 gun ago to

whom are kodachi was another example that calls on a number of impulses in the american intervention of spirit. ah, man. as mac cmc was near 31, no, not that could be a no hand and looked. and if it had been with them, i'd only had any a thing. what i like yes, defeat the fuck up as a c a c. m. as that a la fi, medina, my husband was in a service fee. now a mac and i'm and then what on that amendment and that the house, the law at the huffman daily and bad issue with the whole will be, i, can you be

a muslim a away? will muscular, even of net. and you should a lot on the libby where we thought of him as a bad leader or one we couldn't control. now he looked like he might be about to carry out of human rights atrocity. so we decided it was time to participate in an operation to overthrow gadhafi. and in that operation, of course, he was killed. so we need it in the

short term goal. get rid of gadhafi and 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. so regime or the verge, everybody would cooperate things together. with you say i a

nivia family thing or being sent home with as always a but out about minutes a month it's mostly about the something today. ah oh a i'm up not mobile. all of them allow me was i'm up with that for some finance, alaska. really won't cousin fema gel gum. ah, a key ah, with

with ah mister section is very easy to make. if you are very good, i did, for instance, if you work in the media and you know how to do it, you can do a very good job and manipulating public opinion. you can paint white and black, you can totally trust reality. and sometimes not even by lying, sometimes just by making what you want to pay or putting things in a certain order or putting human emotions into one side of the story. while not giving a rational analysis of the whole picture. a

with a team

in house the local point, open up submit any amount that can make them feel them work actually. how about ah ah if somebody can, you're on by somebody and that's in a com slash can, but up to i'm a prison hensler, korea, connecticut. he my love them in foster hut. oh can nanny gotta be mon couple. not a mile i do. if it wasn't, i knew myself, i kind of got a bid. let them,

this data these wrote a famous history of the peloponnesian wars. 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 the united states is the power that's been used to being on the top and is now being challenged. national out of no net 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 the debt. the last thing i do at the wasn't the majors. yes. i know a lot of believe b to a to fee for said that yet im fee whoa whoa whoa whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, the

this is lee. oh um is it how funny i like how far leah. but i think the minimum and the number we have a beautiful been the only in the last mean hays noon in with

ah, we believe that we are an exceptional nation. this is a phrase you hear a lot 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. with my name is dr. young site and i am a wine political scientists in

8093 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 with hawaii was the 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 with this is yolanda palace here in the back row. this was the executive monarchs

building hawaii by 18. 93 was already a constitutional monarchy. so it had 3 separate branches of government. it 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. however, ports after disarming, refurbish, leave home ports, re arm and go back fighting a little for who it was in the wine island by money, by greed. and so he, with relation to represent all the things that was happening and willing be $89.93. so what we see you rising out of the last out of the ocean are these giant monsters that are asked to read it. documentation of annexation of documentation that basically saying we're right is what we are. we're the inevitable truth. and there actually, so it's also again that the high saying that from the newspapers that we're seeing,

never huh. we've developed an unusual a 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. hello, pomona charter school, high school level. there we're going to be visiting both share with you folks doing local. i'm gonna turn it over to you in your class. and so if you want to feel like

we already know, hawaii was just standing, national was his nation state, and for 50 years he celebrated 18. 93. when we know that, oh, united states of america illegally overthrew. oh, now, how did the united states maintain that power, despite having no legal authority on a military? like i said, military threat of force, violence, perhaps weapons, who are you? how else are they maintain power in hawaii or population? we just talked about how me getting a 2 hours of the traffic was all americans are when i yes. ah,

we are the evidence. oh, the nationalization where the evidence of the warcraft. we are not the war crimes ourselves. what. what you already is an independent country. all that was overthrown. anything 93 was our government by the united states, not our country. so our country is still an independent state, but we're not in control of our independence were occupied. move. mm. this book over throw 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 habits of dominance to a more equal multi polar mm

ah, a with a lot of again, no, does a lot of the life with a

ah, misperception is very easy to make if you're very good at it. for instance, if you work in the media and you know how to do it, you can do a very good job and manipulating public opinion. you can paint white and black. you can, you know, totally trust reality. and sometimes not even by lying. sometimes just by making what you want to pay or putting things in a certain order or putting human emotions into one side of the story, while not giving a rational analysis of the whole picture. ah

ah, with for germany is involved in the work of bio weapons labs and ukraine together with the g u. s. allies. that's the latest revelation coming from moscow on the west to ledger to biological military activities in the region. an investigation claims ukrainian security service used guantanamo style torture techniques on political opponents of president de lensky. we speak to the author behind the probe who says the practice was supervised by the cia has top us officials once again pressure, india to abandon its neutral stance with russia and refrained from any further cooperation. we'll have a live panel discussion about it.
