tv The Modus Operandi RT January 23, 2023 7:30pm-8:01pm EST
7:30 pm
it's essentially what i think they're trying to do is to completely wipe the slate clean, right? because the minute that you stop being able to measure inflation or death as we prefer or government, that in line with actually economic growth, it becomes impossible for us really to see how much money they have borrowing and how much debt the countries it and ask the u. s. controllers the global reserve current, which is the u. s. dollar. it's more impossible for us to add up all the dollars in the world to see if that printing any more. so really, it said it might need some massive scan that, that probably hoping is going to reduce the concern and the global market as to how many dollars they're printing and how much debts they're accumulating. day by day is just going to put the markets into further turmoil, right? because as, as an analyst, as an investor, right now, i'm trying to look at the u. s. economy, which is basically tagging anyone trading in us dollars around the world and figure out where, where or if i deploy my capital the minute and i cannot see the debt on the balance sheet. not hoping to fill me with confidence to invest money, not just in the u. s, but pretty much anywhere in the world. because i'm constantly going to be in fair
7:31 pm
because i cannot see actually how much debt in real terms is out there in the market. which could complete in utley tank or my investment. i would go as far to say that this is fraud. i would just put this into a, into a real terms example for you. so let's say you and i set up a company. now when we went to investors and raised money and we did not disclose to those investors how much money or how much debt was on our balance sheet on our books. well, if our investors found out and they report to, that's the please you and i would go quite brightly, going to present the defrauding that however, in this case, it looks like, you know, we, we talk a lot on the program about the difference between the u s is so good rules based order in international law. it, you know, it appears that the us have absolutely no respect for international law. and now even very basic tenants abroad, such as fraud. so yeah, i think this is a highly legal act on the international state. well that's, so for me today i'm next to the laval is on the call. so i want my mommy wishing you all a terrific juice. mm hm. inflation,
7:32 pm
which are formed over tens of thousands of years, can give us important information into our climate and how it has changed over time . what a scary is our glaciers are. milton added alarming rate to learn more. we came here to help us to speak to victor couple years ago, judges who devoted his entire life to the topic. it is a fascinating at times dangerous and very important job. ah, hello, i'm manila chan. you are tuned into modus operandi the show that dive deep in the global foreign policy and international relations to examine their methods and patterns, and it's history that reverberates in our lives today. all right,
7:33 pm
so they claim to be non partisan benign nonprofits that assist nations or promote a cause. oftentimes they claim to promote democracy in other humanitarian causes. but most importantly, that n g part of the acronym and g o non governmental implies, there are no ties to any particular government. today will explore whether n g o r really just a trojan horse. all right, let's get into the ammo ah. in the 21st century, public perception is key to achieving policy goals of any government in any country on the planet. in moving those of foreign policy agendas now known chomsky and edward as herman in their seminal 1988 book manufacturing consent examined how
7:34 pm
media helps shape public perception and ultimately achieve a government's policy objectives. chomsky said this quote, propaganda is to democracy, what violence is too tall, a tarion isn't. and that was in 1088. today, governments rely heavily on social media influencers, the media itself and more subversively on non governmental organizations or, and yos for short. now able to do and perform tasks that are politically risky or flat out antithetical to international law. and jose have the ability to skirt around such inconveniences and nuisance. after all, they are not a part of any government, right? it wrong. or it sort of andrarios, as their name implies, are not technically a part of any branch of government, at least not here in the us. however,
7:35 pm
the caveat is oftentimes at least for these american ones, these embryos take in a tremendous amount of funding directly from the u. s. government. now take, for example, the n e d. ned is the national endowment for democracy. now ned says they are, quote, an independent non profit foundation dedicated to the growth and strict strengthening of democratic institutions around the world. cool, that sounds great. they use words like democracy, scholars, activists, human rights, freedom. they give out grants free money to promote all this good stuff, but keep reading. and ned tells you right there, funded largely by the u. s. congress. it's founding in 1983 garnered bipartisan support state side. one of the rare instances, the american political do wobbly publicly agree,
7:36 pm
and it's through the private non profit ned, that the u. s. pores billions of dollars into these and g o z chief among them. the and d i and the i r i, the national democratic institute and the international republican institute respectively. and george soros, his massive network of various and cios such as his open society foundations. so in effect, and geo is often serve as a means to launder state money to achieve various political outcomes of target nations or groups. it's an indirect way for governments to affect change and shape public opinion without really having to get their hands dirty. but that doesn't mean they don't we fingerprints. oh, to learn more about the inner workings of n g o. z will be joined by someone who has had to work directly with them in
7:37 pm
various corners of the world. francis boyle is a professor of international law at the university of illinois and has served as counsel to nations such as bosnia, herzegovina, and the provisional government of the palestinian authority. professor, good to see. thank you for joining us on this seemingly benign topic. but it's also a very opaque one. let's take, for example, u. s. a i d that began in the 960 s. it's america's main and official soft power agency. now since then, other official agency such as ned, the national endowment for democracy and branches beneath that have sprung up as well. they put tens of millions of dollars into groups known as n g s. why do this? why not run programs directly through official government agencies or government channels? well, 1st let's start with usa. i d, it's a well no front organization for the central intelligence agency. as
7:38 pm
a matter of fact, i have lunch once a friend of mine who was a former director of usa, i d, when it was an independent agency and a lawyer. and i asked him about penetration of u i c i d by the central intelligence agency and he just sort of smiled and he said there were so many spooks in my organization. i lost track of so that's u. s. a i v for you. you have to understand they're, they're a covert are open arm of the central intelligence agency. now that got kind of embarrassing, of course, so that, that became well known in the cia and color revolutions and everything else. so
7:39 pm
they decided to sort of out source it green washing, whatever you want to call it, by the national institute for democracy and the republican institute. in all honesty, i really don't know why foreign governments permit the real question here. why do foreign governments permit ned and the republican institute to operate in these foreign countries for the purpose of destabilizing them? and if they don't do what the united states government tells them to do, up to, to prepare a color revolutions. certainly. now, finally, russia has so you know, smart knocked and realized what the agenda here here is. ah, and, and his adopted view law cracking down on the saw. oh, angels and the restaurant. and i notice i india has. oh,
7:40 pm
that's good. but what about the rest, the world? i mean, we americans know full well what's going on. um, so, i mean this, these are matters of public record over here that experts in, in my field, international audience, international human rights. lot all about our n g o's, an american phenomenon, or do they exist for other countries around the world as well? most of the lights, i haven't sat down and you don't done a statistical study. most of them come out of the united states, but then you have a britain with amnesty international france medicines on frontier. but basically they are, i would say, white racist, western imperialist governments. that a view n g o as a so called soft power and cut out
7:41 pm
o 2 to engage in their foreign policy by other means. so early to thousands, there was significant growth of angio activity across latin america between 20022012. that decade saw some $100000000.00 dumped into latin america by and cios, especially in ecuador and venezuela. that money was used to fund opposition. busy groups and stand up new organizations that were similarly against the socialist leaders of that time. what impact did this have and latin american politics and does this equate to i don't know, election interference. well yeah, let's just take what happened there in venezuela, by itself were all these so western n g o one in there, to destabilize chavez. and then the dural because they were pursuing a foreign policy,
7:42 pm
independent of the united states of america. and tried to use their massive oil well for the benefit of their, their old people. so they sick the n g o on venezuela. and to a lesser extent, the same thing was done to ecuador because they were not towing the american, the united states of america, imperial line. sure. you know, you have to understand on these n g o's, they all operate on the principal heat. you pays the pipe or calls to, to there's, there's nothing independent about that. it all depends, you know, who is giving them the money. because of, you know, you get what you pay for. people don't just give money to n g o c out of the goodness of their heart. they expect payback and you know,
7:43 pm
some of these n g o z, good, good funnels. don't get paid for by u. s. government cuts. so again, you just see, oh, certainly american and g o, older all western cios being used as instruments of foreign policy, a cutout as it were for organizations by their own government. and the 2nd you have to understand many of these ent yos, are infiltrated by western intelligence, agents, and assets. now it's worth noting that since the mid 20 ten's, a number of nations have moved to pass laws more tightly, regulating how foreign angio is, can operate in their respective countries. israel's kinessa approved a controversial 2016 law that mandates financial reporting requirements for n g o that received most of their funding from foreign governments. and critics argued this targets humanitarian groups. but benjamin netanyahu prime minister at
7:44 pm
the time said this and the aim of the law, he said quote, to prevent an absurd situation in which foreign states metal, in israel's internal affairs, by funding and cios, without the israeli public being aware of it. russia and china have also introduced and past similar and jail legislation in their own countries as well. so when we return, we'll take a look at just how easy it is to launch an angio and its impacts within america's own borders. we'll continue the conversation with professor boil when we return, sit tight. m o will be right back. i ah, according to french president you, menu wilma, the company must decide whether it wants to be free or
7:45 pm
a vassal of china or the united states. but grown has never been known to be an original thinker. however, on this point, he is obviously right. the real question is whether it's, europe still has the power to decide its fate at all. i'm willing to do it. you know, cranium, tv, audio shooting, id, she ship of dr. lee that ship for a control in particular boards. so she'll be at the mo, the, the system will only be me out of it. not saying what's the from the city. yeah. with us actually it's a little news, but i live but a lot of the my subway but just dory. yes or no. i live she have a lease, get us. but there we ship them that he has a daughter look like you know what of them. i need
7:46 pm
a you a 11 they each or where are you familiar with about how she took on the job is to provide you enough with you with ah, we're pulling back the veil and n g o. busy and what some call a 2nd cia professor francis boil is continuing the conversation with us now, professor, boil american n g, i was not only influenced opinion beyond us borders within the u. s. itself
7:47 pm
according to a 2021 report by the state department, some 1500000 n g i was operate here inside the u. s. is their function, the same state side as it is overseas? to a great extent, it is a, you know, you have to be very careful who is paying for these and cios, where did they come from? what is their agenda? oh, you know, soros is put large amounts of money into n g o z to promote his own agenda. some people agree with charles agenda. i have problems with some of it. but but, but to give you an example here, a prominent n g o, i've worked with the american civil liberties union. i joined the ac all you when i was 10 years old, i had read of a young case the one on civil rights for african americans. so i took
7:48 pm
$5.00 out of my own allowance and i sent them a note saying i'm only 10 years old. but i saw your case and here's $5.00. i hope you can just make me a member and they sent me a membership ship, but certificate. so i haven't been continuously member for all those years. but what i will work with the issue over the years. and then i moved out here to the university, illinois and champagne, and was actively involved in the or champagne county, a c o u. and then it turns out that the president of the champagne county, a, c, l u, launched an internet character assassination campaign accusing me of being anti semitic . and he sent this to jewish people are wonderful, was a friend of mine and responded and reprimanded, saying, you know boyle is an anti semitic,
7:49 pm
but he is as critical of israel as i am. so you have to, this was the, a, c o u. so i didn't renew my membership, but you have to understand here in the united states, large numbers of and she owes like the a c o you are paid for by sinus sources. oh, you have a zionist on their board of directors, zionist officials, sinus gatekeepers. and the, anything that is objectionable to the of zionist agenda is killed right away. that was my experience with having been dealt with amnesty international for the years. i was a dealing with them and, and other organization. so um they all have an agenda right now. you st. zionist as it pertains to that, a, c, l. u. can you explain that to us a little bit more?
7:50 pm
right. why are you scientists to distinguish it from jewish? because as you saw, the only reason i found out about this a seo you internet character assassination campaign by the scientist, president of the a c, l. u in champagne county was that he sent it to a jewish friend of mine who was not assigned to stay and reprimanded him. and you know, there are many jewish people who are, who are scientists, scientists, you don't fully support this criminal apartheid regime in israel. and the do everything they care about to oppose those of us here in the united states who work against her israel and support the l statements. i mean, over the years i supported the palestinian since i entered harvard in 1971. 1 palestinians were treated like a lepers and sinus since don't accuse me of being you know,
7:51 pm
everything but a child molester and his black bull blacklisted me of centered me. you wouldn't believe the stuff that's going on and it all that. and she owes that are heavily influenced by zion as well. we'll work with me for that reason. so. okay, fine. what can i do? the state department says it's relatively easy as stand happen and geo that it can be accomplished within just a few days. political antonio's, they receive special limited tax exemptions and many other types actually qualify for a full tax exempt status, both by state and federal taxes. so given the perks and relative owns to launch, one of these are engineers sometimes exploited. and as a mean for some to enrich themselves. well, i've pointed out, you know,
7:52 pm
amnesty international, my experience there is that one of their me main objectives was to raise as much money and as much members as possible. so yes, and you do have other staff members and especially of officials who have pretty good sounds, jo. ah, for all these and yos, i'm not, you know, necessarily saying anyone stealing money, but um, yeah, oh hi level staff people and the executive directors in, in these and yos, are very well paid. many of them, yes. and of the reason why it's so easy to set up these agile, i thought i used to be a tax lawyer before he became a law professor. the united states government understands full well. these n g o z r a tool of soft power for american foreign policy and media. if you look at
7:53 pm
the, the angels like again m, the state of, they've always concerned themselves to be sort of the loyal opposition to the united states government and get on. they're happy to go to mat against the official designated enemies of the united states government. but they don't want to come to the united states government, they sort of pussyfoot around what can i say? i don't i give you an example on yeah, i've done some pro bono work for the american indian movement. going back to 1992. i was there at their request. i was seeing a special prosecutor, the united states government in san francisco tribunal for inflicting international crimes against and interest people. and people of color here in the united states, which that's exactly when i 1st got involved in dealing with american indian issues
7:54 pm
. so, amnesty international law launched a big campaign on behalf of indigenous people all over the world. ok. so they sent me this cam. i'm still on the board at the time. they sent me the campaign literature that, that was going on all over the world. and guess what? they said absolutely nothing in there. i'm the genocidal plight of indigenous people here in the united states and canada. not a work. i've worked up in canada for what they call 1st nations up there. not a word. it eod i. but what do you do? it's just stuck. there it is. one of the checks and balances and the money where does that all go? how do we know exactly what happens to it? we don't know. it's like a black hole. you really don't know where the, where the money goes, where it comes from. huh. say, i mean, i was on the embassy born for 4 years and, you know, we got a budget,
7:55 pm
i think was like $30000000.00 to, there was a but they didn't get into explaining to us. so who gave us this money and i's too busy doing our human rights work out to you know, to sit there and say, you know, i'd like, i'd like to see the books. ah, i don't know if they would have showed them to me to tell you the truth and said i used to be a tax law, was a big corporate law firm in boston of doing tax, international tax tax for the geisha. so i never said, well, show me the books you know, i guess, you know, so i, we just got a roll figure, here's the amount of money. here's what we're planning to do with it. but exactly where it came from. i don't know. and i, you know, i didn't have time to require sit down there and go through the accounting books. and i don't know if they would have given it to me. now, in your opinion, which n g o is, are the most influential and who runs them, maybe, you know,
7:56 pm
rattle off the top 2 or 3. all right, i've already discussed the international committee of the red cross and amos, the international and human rights watch. you know, that's all sorts of money. although i do want to say that can was who is stepping down as the executive director of human rights watch. i work with. i have respect for the world, but it is sort of money. and then the a, c o u here is not a state. i've already discussed that with you. so those, you know, those are the ones i worked with are center for constitutional rights and new york . there are standing cheerless group of lawyers and dedicated staff people. iran is a contentious topic for the us right now. what are the hallmarks of n g o d stabilization? do you see any of that there? well, i think on, on iraq we have to understand that the united states government has been waging
7:57 pm
economic warfare against iran for many years. and this is for the purpose of producing the type of opposition we're seeing to v a radian people. and yes, if you read the news media, you'll see n g o shop again on us. sure. there was a, just a big article, i guess, new york times say, well the, you know, the united states government should be getting involved in here and assisting the, i'm sure there is definite sources of position to the current government in iraq. i'm not here to digital jeremiah, any of that, but all this is basically interference in domestic affairs of foreign states that technically are israel legal,
7:58 pm
under international law. but these western n jose are parenting the united states. britain, france like to use the cause of either human rights or democracy because it sounds good. it gets the money and they sound like the do gooders where, you know, in fact, it's not just ram, but other governments, 3rd world. they're the stabilizer like, like vendors, well, you know, it's a pair professor francis boyle, of the university of illinois and thank you so much for sharing your insight and expertise with us today. all right, so it would appear that where diplomacy fails and sanctions just aren't enough. stand up and enjo and send it over to spread democracy. that's going to do it for this week's episode. i've modus operandi there show that dig deep into foreign policy. i'm your host manila chan. thank you for tuning and we'll see you again
