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. yeah, native peoples and other foreign forces. then we became and 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. and it's a tax on other countries 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. ah, particularly in our own press and in the press of that leaders own country, americans loved to think there were intervening and 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 albums 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 and hundreds of people lost their lives. mm. oh, a with i don't them on a block in or in the area on the yeah. on that really there let on there for one go read. my use of, i know at

this time a giant american company, the united food company owned a huge amount of land in guatemala. ah, a much of that land they were not use. it was just being held vacant. while many guatemalans are starving because they didn't have land to grow food, i am with the ample gang out out of the blood out in an antibiotic. but both don't keep though that i used that with medical, i may go on with no one, no one month. it is a, it's a way for lemme and get those the recalls those. well that all they, when you know what, again, if that is i only, i get idea. yeah. i'm as you know,

but again look at me and then also of them. i felt 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 food company to sell its unused land, so it could be divided up and given to 4 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 were okay, sanjay it though bye or go. i don't where victory battle and they will see outbound buddha film and thunder head. he

thought at the medical. yep. i think i'm in corroborate you can we're good. we're, we're, we're pretty good. all right. yeah. well, i wonder if this will go ahead. i think, i mean, a later civil war broke out. something like 200000 people were killed in that conflict over more than 30 years with the info me. but in the old going that they can see though and a guy old, but a thought was the lateral. it's am i won't be near one be near samarnie, dathan. yeah. got his email though. yeah. let me check on that. come

with me for a while. go here. mm. i see you. are you scared of the with the amend my thought cm today. they may have been in this video and the look at them won't get that in that course other than that have them out here. now. the 2nd one is an all in one associate with the other. okay. right. okay. so the whole hello sport. what is the most of them there, but i'm in these 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 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 gun wrote a whole more kodachi was another example that calls on a number of impulses in the american intervention of spirit. ah, man. as mac cmc 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 if had any and now he i think, well yes, defeat the fuck up as a c a c mazata law fi. medina.

as he was in the unit a fee. now a mac and then weapon that the amendment and that the house the law at the huffman daily. and that that would be a full back. can you be a wayne? what masculine ivan, i've met, as you should go up on the lee b. what 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 an

operation to overthrow gadhafi. and in that operation, of course, he was killed. so we succeeded 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, sol regime already burge, everybody with cooperative songs together with my mistake, i a

with media, i'm within obeyed center because a was a bit out of my burnett and with the company today a, a mobile, a lot of them allow, we would come up with extra finance, alaska, and the ones puzzles females on a,

b, a, b, a with oh, mr. section 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 with in house the in about 4 point opened up. somebody a model that can make one free live work that actually how about a a

a with about a slash. can somebody put them up for them so that could be a good enough for you? my love them for thought wilkin nanny. i thought he'd be min up or not, my lad can have him, was it? i do anything myself, a kind of cuddy bird. let them, phillip about my mom was in. i have to be within them. one, shall they, if you just them and the what them and i'm presenting on that. i'd love to help if you have any additional fee or bosh cost can maya, who are p minish of i any visual? i love, he's upset. i'm a company below what? ah

ah, ah adam said, i wanna know but me because he doesn't belong to the game with these road famous history of the peloponnesian wars, where 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. no, i don't know 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 last get here and how do i know i love medina problems, but that the last thing i do at the washington major city. yes. i know a lot of believe b to a to fee for said that yet in fee. whoa,

whoa whoa whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. yes, this is lee. oh, my name is oshay. how funny i like how far leah. but so i think the minimum and the number of me is to pull minimally into the left me

a deal 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. with my name is dr. key on site and i am a wine political scientist for 1893 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 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 saw, 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 says here legislative and judicial which is across the street mm. with

leader of these 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 on 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 battle for who it was in wine island by money,

by greed. and so it was done in relation to represent all the things that was happening and willing between 9 and 930. so what we see you rising out of the land out of the ocean are the giant monsters that are asked to read with 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 ca, 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 in what we hear of hello, pomona charter school, high school level that we're going to be visiting both to share with you folks do it for local. i'm gonna turn it over to you on your class. and so if you 40 feel like we already know, hawaii was, is standing, national was his nation state, and for 50 years he celebrated 8093. when we know that, oh, united states of america illegally over through 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, brass weapons, who,

how else are they maintain power in hawaii or population, we just talked about how many guys spending a 2 hours a day in traffic. was all americans with ha, yes. ah, we are the evidence. oh, but the nationalization where the evidence of the war cry. we are not the war crimes ourselves. what. what you already is an independent country. all that was overthrown, any to 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. we're 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 habit of dominance to a more equal multi polar mm ah. ah, i'm with

i with

african or what you're going on the ground, the team and i will be back soon with a brand new look despite nature nation and he you censorship. but the deal and we'll be showing some of your favorite shows of the season. so far, coming up with this show, while bar a strong to new fights for its political life, this weekend may have opposed charging those involved. the world is, but i was away from commemorating a 10 minute massacre. bloody sunday we investigate. and after the.
