she is also known as one of the architects behind the destruction of libya during president obama's time as a key adviser on his national security council. her memoir, the education of an idealist, was roundly lauded by political elite despite the book downplaying her role in both international human rights catastrophes. her previous book from 2002 called a problem from how america and the age of genocide won her a pulitzer prize. and is often cited in academia as a case to be made for military intervention on the grounds of human rights. today, samantha power heads us a id handpicked by the binding administration for her breath of experience in foreign policy. usa id is of course, america's foremost agency in the way of global soft power. distributing aid like food and medical supplies to needy countries all around the world. but usa id is

also a well known front for the cia. and it's operative to covertly function behind the cloak of humanitarian causes. all of this, making this u. k. borne, yale and harvard educated woman, the perfect person to lead such an agency during such a volatile time in living history. joining us now to discuss this controversial biden admin official is jim janice, who is no slouch on foreign policy himself. jim is a retired us diplomat and former g o p. senate foreign policy advisor, also one of my favorite brains to pick gym. thank you for being with us today. so tell me send out the power butcher of yemen. architect of libya, too harsh? no, i don't think it's harsh at all to call her butcher of yemen, libya,

whichever country you want to pick, the only quarrel i would have it would be if somebody's tried to stick were the in front of it because certainly she was not the only one i mean, you certainly have a susan rice and other people that were involved in these things. i suppose they should give the light the notion. some people have that we put more women in charge of these decisions. we'd have a more peaceful world. if you look at, you know that these 2 care people, samantha rice's cement our shoes, rice, hillary clinton, emory slaughter michelle flor annoy you, go down the list. i guess kipling was right that the email of the species is more deadly than the bail. i think my favorite titles are actually the genocide chip. no, she cut her bones on it as reporting from bosnia and manufacturer. this notion of the united states as a duty, intervene, and other countries to prevent war crimes in genocide, the course this is simply resulted in more depth and destruction. so under tromp, samantha power was obviously out of government work for a little while. so she went back to the halls of harvard at the kennedy school as

a professor, but invited tapped her to come back to public service and had up usa idea. now there is no bones about it where usa id goes a color revolution tends to follow. recently power made an unannounced trip to hungary with the agency where she apparently met with these young movers and shakers people, she called civil society and said, usa d was quote, relaunching initiatives to boost independent media and drive up civic engagement. now you've been a diplomat in your career breakdown this diplomat speak for us. what was she doing in budapest, and why didn't she tell the or bon administration ahead of time that she was going? well, i think you hit the nail on the head. i mean, this is about regime change we just saw. so in, similar, by the way we see actually unfolding in georgia right now or georgia, attempted to pass

a law that would require will be doing here. and then i'd states that foreign funded entities need to disclose added, declare themselves before an agent. i personally don't have a problem with that. of course, in hungary we have a whole apparatus and only us european government organizations, but also the soros organizations that are targeting mr. or bon for regime change, you know, really doesn't matter what the job is, you have in washing to whether it's u. s. e. i d administrator. whether you are the un ambassador as a samantha power was during the obama administration. there's only one rule in washington. it's our way or the highway, if you don't fully t o the line on the desktop cover from washington. of course, and, or bunce case, it's not only not being fully on board with sanctions and other measures against russia because of the war and ukraine, but also the whole panoply of, you know, rainbow in l g b t. n social revolution issues being pressed by the western

powers to dip d populate countries like hungry. i'm, you know, i, i think this is one reason why these are the reasons why or one is being set up this way by his ostensible allies. and certainly that samantha powers trip to, but a budapest was, was part of what a man the population. but hungary only has like 10000000 people this, right? but, you know, the question is which ways the url going? i mean, the policies of the warp on government hungry to say, we need more hungarians, that. what is it? donald trump sort of america 1st? well weapons program is hungry 1st among arians. first, isn't that wider, is a country call hungry in the 1st place, isn't supposed be a national home for hungarians. you, you would think this would be an elementary observation about the desire of any people to be self governing, to have an independent state as, as a homely and for their people. and apparently that's, that's out of balance for hunger. he's not allowed to do that. we need to find some

way to cut down his population and to get with the program with the rest of europe, which is, you know, change the demographics and abolish national cultures, religious values, and so forth. all right, so victor or bon, the prime minister of hungary spoke at the 2022 c pack event that was held in texas last year. he was met with thunderous applause for some of the very conservative leaning remarks that he made, you know, anti abortion. building the border wall in his own country to stop illegal migration, things of that nature definitely running afoul of what the biden administration wanted to hear. but perhaps, or bonds most offensive action was what he didn't say last year. and still not saying this year that hungary will back biden and nato in supporting arms to ukraine. victor or bond refuses to get on board the sanctions train against russia refuses to condemn. vladimir putin hungry is among the few. if not the only country

that won't play ball the way the u. s. wants in ukraine. what do you make of all of that? and do you think that has anything to do with samantha powers visit to hungary? ah, you know, patriots of all countries unite. you have nothing to lose but your walk rulers. yeah, i think it's, it's, it's a positive sign that people see packwood, welcome, or bon speech that people recognize that leaders and other country should feel about their own countries. the way hopefully american patriots deal about our country. and that, that i guess is a controversial one of the if you nowadays, you're right, as far as, as, as in the list of sins that or by or bon has for the, the crowd running wash in these days is not just on social policies. domestically inside hungry, it's above all for not towing the line on foreign policy. which right now is this completely destructive course that, that the west is following on ukraine,

hungary as a country and not a very big country located in central europe. and as a member of nato and european union, as under tremendous pressure for both of those organizations to follow the script and it's been written elsewhere that are, is, is, are, is contrary to zone countries interests. and the fact that look, he does go along to the extent that he needs to with western policy, western sanctions, when it's a common decision by the european union or by nature. but he doesn't go beyond that . he isn't, he doesn't go up beyond the minimum necessary to make sure he doesn't break with those organizations in a way that can be detrimental was on countries interests. and the fact that he puts hungry and hungarians erst instead of the dick taught from the western powers, as i, i think, is targeting him for removal. of course that's, that's the agenda. that power was arriving in budapest lit. ah, i coming up next. a hollywood dark comedy was made about alleged crimes against

humanity highlighting the narratives created by washington to achieve political ends. but the real life events are supposedly what samantha power emma will be right back with . a us is a danger to the world as it is. and because it has all this economic power that it uses for the military, these are sick and twisted people that care about nothing but money empower. i'm

not even hey, i think i think they're indifferent. they just want money empower and they don't. they're indifferent to who dice and as long as they can get that money empower. ah, ah, i will ensure that joe biden does not receive for more years. do you believe trump? as a general rule? no, never. we must conduct a top to bottom overhaul to clean out the festering rod and corruption of washington dc abided as pushing us to world war 3. i mean, i a you have to consider that. that is the worst. i mean, we should never be in a position the u. s. has no business in ukraine with

with the who's ah, welcome back to the mo i'm manila chan. so republican congressmen, matt gates calls for all us troops and syria to come home as democrats vote to keep

them abroad. now if that confuses you, just as much as it does me that hold on to your hats. former us diplomat and g o p . senate foreign policy advisor jim janice is back with us jim samantha powers background and her experience as a journalist during the war in what was then us lobby is said to have shaped her world view. in that she believes the u. s. in particular, should use military intervention and other countries to prevent genocide. that was the trope from her 2002 book, a problem from how america and the age of genocide for which she want to pulitzer prize. this also landed her in new found government jobs after her stent as a journalist. now, you were already in the government space when the war broke out in yugoslavia, they even made a movie based on the u. s. intervention in yugoslavia wag the dog. where was the

genocide that power allegedly witness to that shaped her world view? i mean, i thought history has proven that bill clinton lead nato into a bombing campaign based on lies that killed way more people than the initial unrest within that country did. well, you know, the excuse of her intervention. balkans 1st in boston and coastal, was that serbia, was committing genocide and got boston serbs against muslims in bosnia and against albanians in kosovo. of course this was towed wires. this should go right next to sodom. hussein's weapons of mass destruction or, or assad's chemical weapons use. it's just, you know, total fabrications. now there were genocides during the kosovo war, but they were the exact opposite of the ones we were told when. for example, the serbs were killed, cru cleared out of krajina. and what is now croatia by a combination of the croatian army and professional milk military professionals.

trained by the united states, the kind of contractors we see, by the way, acting this proxies for nato in ukraine. you know, it's not as though the truth, we're not evident, you know, there was another great journalist, a time, a guy named peter brock. formerly with the new york times, who tried to do honest reporting from, from of bosnia and i think also in kosovo as well. and that was just basically sideline is the same kind of thing we've been seeing in every one of these episodes that if you're ever coming out of your christie christiane amanpour and you're coming out with something that fits the narrative, not because you're, you're mine was influenced by the circumstances, but because you were there as a propagandist for the narrative, she sell a war and that's what these people do. and you go there and say, hey, that's not true. this is really happened. here's what the real facts are. you're not begin any pull it surprises. nobody's going to make a movie about you're going to be sideline, vilified, being accused of being a potent apologise for assault. apologised, are a militia leach apologize, because that's not what the borg wants with the board wants. is

a narrative and services propaganda interests you what you are a press to to you work or the narrative. i dare i say it manufacturing consent. noam. chomsky and edward as herman seems to be, i guess more of a prophecy than, than a book of research these days. so recently republican congressmen, matt gates, i like to call him the new de facto leader of the squad, brought to the floor of the house, a resolution to bring all us troops home from syria where they have effectively just been guarding the oil and wheat fields. some say the u. s. a stealing that stuff, but that's a different conversation for another day. but what got the u. s. troops there in the 1st place, was advisement from samantha power to brock obama, when she was on his national security council. that the u. s. needed to go to syria, was that sound advice? should obama have listened to power?

no stable advice for obama to listen to samantha power. in fact, for anybody to listen to samantha power, the idea that we were there in syria syria illegally. of course, other both american law and under the un charter to protect the syrian people from, from the assad regime. what, in fact we're talking about supporting a bunch of jihad terrorists against a secular syrian government, is just it just a terrible advice and an inmate by the way, let's not be naive. this was not unintended. we knew very well. we knew as far back as 2012 that supporting these terrorist groups and syria was going to lead to an anti he like isis. this is not a unintended consequence of a bad information or bad judgment. this is an intended outcome by people in washington to create terrorist entities to use as weapons against regimes we're targeting for removal. so the, the idea that somehow we, oh gosh, we,

it for the umpteenth time, we sort of got it wrong, but you know, it was, it was all done in good faith. it was not done in good faith. so it, it, unfortunately, nobody ever learns from these mistakes, and there are, there are no consequences for the people recommended. now it's nice to see the least there was a vote under the war powers resolution on syria. of course, it feels very badly. and despite the fact we've only seen to save some kind of glimmer of conscience from the people on the left ill, the people, the squadron left wing of the democratic party in congress, and at least a respectable showing republicans. it's not going to make any difference at the end of the day. it's not as though we really have a constitution or rule of law anymore. let's remember even in 1999, when the house voted on clinton's authorizations to use force in kosovo, the authorization was voted down in the house of representatives, and the clinton ministration proceeded with it anyway. the sad fact is, i think

a lot americans, though, on a face this we, we live in a post constitutional h, a post rule of law age here in the united states. it's nice to get the vote, but don't kid yourself. we'll make any difference at death by well, meaning people as they say, i'm so falling her stent. then on the national security council, samantha power, i like to say, failed up to then represent the u. s. at the united nations. what do you make of her tenure as the us ambassador to the united nations? will in some ways a samantha powers tenure is un ambassador was the, you know, i'd say was the, the high point or the, the say the, the globe before the setting that we've started to see the setting of american power. you might say that libya was the high point of american interventionism in that even the russians and chinese in the u. n. went along with the claimed purposes, humanitarian purposes of application of western power. and they saw that that was

a facade to that. this was simply a lie to, to. busy allow another regime change operation there so you know, i think in a way she, she was the mistress of. busy all she saw, she was the master of the universe at that point where she could say this is american policy. everybody supports the international community is on board. and this is what we're going to do. that was the last one that really went that simple because the next target was syria. and that wouldn't, did not go as plan in the russians and chinese by then had one wised up about what the program was. and we started to see that these, these regime change operations, these color revolutions that had gone so swimmingly, up to libya. it wasn't working anymore. and of course, we've just seen in the last a year or so a couple years and attempted 2020 in georgia, attempting exxon in that 2022 to it's not working anymore. so i hope that these

people enjoyed their moment in the sun where all the world seem to be going in their favor. i don't think that's working anymore. all right, so miss power is a democrat. we know that she is politically aligned to the left. she espouses the ideology is rooted on that side of the political spectrum. you know, abortion l g b t q issue is trans rights. you all the usual cultural talking points that we hear so loudly here in the us as you touched upon earlier in her position at usa, i think she brings with her all of these ideologies to countries who are in desperate need of food, you know, access to clean water, housing, education, all of these things the developing nations want. so i guess under her stewardship, will these countries have to sort of accept these biden era cultural issues in order to receive this ain't like a like a quid pro quo. oh yes, there's definitely a quid pro quo to that kind of the social issues that the, you know,

that rainbow colored agenda of human rights and democracy, which is really anything but human rights and democracy in a lot of people have the mistaken notion. this is all driven by money. this is all the military industrial complex as though it's it either or thing is not an either or a thing that i, you know, i wrote an article back in 1997 i think called rainbow fascism at home and abroad. about how this ideology of human rights and, and democracy was, was being weaponized as a, as, as a justification of aggression across the globe. and the sad fact is manella. these people are true believers. these people are idiot, logs, fanatics of the sort that you expect from communists in moscow. in the 1920s, people really thought that they were the vanguard of all progressive humanity and all human right. all humanity, all countries must go down to one and only true road of salvation, which is their, their social recommendations, which just happened to be tied up with

a lot of money, moneyed interests, and big corporations. a lot of armed sales and power of one state above all others . and that has been the mode for the last, you know, 30 years or so up until the recent years. and i think it's finally run into a brick wall and ukraine. and we'll see what happens after that. hopefully we get out of this mess without the whole world blowing itself up. but if it does, i think we are entering into a new era where these people can, can bang on the drum and threaten and try to choke off funds for, for other countries all they want, which is what they've been doing. why every country in eastern europe is told, you know, the patriarch and moscow said this year or so ago that, that one demand is always given. all these countries you have to have a pride break. you must have a pride rate in your capital whether you have happened what one or not. well, i don't think that's going to wash anymore, and i think that's why we're, we are going to see new international institutions, not just ones control by the western powers, with world bank or the i m f, and so forth, where you can get loans. you can get credit,

you can't get economic development without all the social strings attached and that respect a country, sovereignty national culture, religion, moral values and so forth. yeah, you definitely have a point there because in her own tweet, she made it a point to say that she was meeting with people of what she called civil society. so basically, you know, anyone that doesn't fit into this framework is kind of implied. i guess to be just uncivilized so, so jim, for all samantha powers, talk of human rights or what democracy should look like, at least under her advisement or leadership. her version of spreading democracy. will there be a giant missing element of sovereignty, of whichever country she visits me, she doesn't seem to speak much on that or on respecting the cultural values that very country to country. you know, i, i think it's important again to know it's not to samantha power,

that she's one prominent figure in a, in a very large operation of very large nomenklatura. i could put it that way. very similar to the one that ran the so union with a kindred ideology but different on summer some of the details. oh yeah, of course this is totally incompatible with national sovereignty. you know, one of the of the, the slogans or the means of this ideology is diversity inclusion. we're all supposed be in favor of diversity. but you notice that that diversity means that people can be of different ethnicities, different races, different religions, a different sexes and aah, god only knows how many sexual identities, but they all have to think exactly the same way it works. it's kind of a diversity of the descriptors of the various people, but not a diversity of thought. and i think what will emerge in a multiple, a world is a true diversity where you respect the fact that germany is not the same as america is not the same as england, not the same as russia, not the same as india, not the same as china, or iran that these countries have their own history,

tradition, and cultures and that state sovereignty. the sovereignty of states and other west alien sense exists. the purpose of defending those values that people are hungry say, no, you know your stand if is context others. this is my place, this is my whole, these are my people, my values and over there in another country, they have a different identity, different values, good for them. we respect them, but we don't share them. and that's what i think is essential. who had to diversity in the world between nations and cultures and states. yes. like the silicon valley bank failure. i. we got to leave it right there. former us diplomat jim catrice. thank you so much for your insight today. i that is gonna do it for this episode. modus operandi, to show that, dig deep into foreign policy and current affairs. i'm your host mail a chan. thank you for turning and we'll see you again next time to figure out the m . o. ah

ah, children at saint a residential school suffered nightmarish levels of abuse, torture and child rape. and yet the office of the attorney general suppressed thousands of pages of police and evidence that identified don't perpetrators. in the school, i was electrocuted. twice. i was only 7 years old, was too high for me. so for me to put me in the chair by the law warriors to run over here, be somebody and run here and she kept solution away from cell. some of them are my relative, didn't make it jerking themselves to death over those too. but it made

me make me the person i am today because i'm a painter. i don't give up with anything. investigations were too often handled differently because the deceased was indigenous. so many of the worst criminals got away the bishop's got away. the ones who done most of the damage never got charged . ah ah, ah ah ah ah, a

ah with with no. you're a white glove. you know, we do mom of a flash from. yeah, cuz i thought that was good enough. i just wondered,

was if you needed a record what, what sandwich is work for those. you really do a bite feet long or a few less would you do by ah, memory loss is unusual. forgetfulness a form of memory loss and ability to recall past events with can be general or concerns, some specific events solely. in some cases, the memory laws can extend back decades with start an intensive course of memory recovery

on our t. mm. ah, we start with breaking news. a russian war correspondent had been killed in an explosion in saint petersburg with at least 32 more people in europe, including a 14 year old girl. we spoke to a victim of the attack. and i was talking to my compatriot bloodline to tar skip. i managed to ask him a couple of questions and then the blast happen. a woman is suspected of bringing the bomb into the cafe before the blast took place. witnesses say she handed the explosive device disguised as a statue to the correspondent.
