start with this one. earlier this year the world court declared that the united states violated international law one and forced the freezing of assets of iranian companies was sending a message. one that was essentially already repeated all over the world. because it's what so many around the world of already been said at the west end. it's bags are weaponized being assets like gold, oil, and even savings accounts. it's, it's a bit of a worry, some trend, no doubt. right? one that has to do with our banks because they're the ones freezing the assets and even closing people's accounts and for whatever their reasons they're doing. so the countries they're doing so to companies and they're even doing it the private citizens. let me tell you what i'm talking about here. it's happened to a gentleman his name a lot. next. how roy? right, that's his name. he lives in los angeles. and one day out of the blue,

he goes to log into his account with bank of america, right. and he finds out that the account shut down. it's shut down shutter, he can't even get in. so what he calls the back, they have no explanation for the lod finally told reporters at the time he said, look, i'm broke. i can't even feed my family because i can't get into my banking account . now to be fair, banks do, on occasion fries accounts over concerns from the police suspicious activity, etc. but the numbers recently are way up. is there that much more suspicious activity? well, here, let me tell you what i learned according to the banking policy institute, over the past 4 years. more than a 1000000 people have had their accounts shut down. the americans. you're asking, why was mister nickle rise account shut down? the answer is it was done at the request of the f, b i the f,

b i. eventually, after a series of media reports have determined that mr. know her, i had the nothing wrong. he was able to move his funds out of there and put it into another bank, but it's irritating. it's irritating the thing that something like this could even happen. and that it seems to be happening now with more frequency. bank of america told me it was shut down. they refused to give me an explanation. they told me i would get my money after it was because of which he says he was told would take 10 to 20 days. and all of a sudden i find out on grow can feed my family. now let's take a look at something. let's take a look at what's happening globally, which by the way, it is part of the reason that the us dollar is kind of falling out of favor worldwide as well, because of asset forfeiture. but it's not just the u. s. the okay, for example, is also accused in this alleged highest. there may be no better example of this

than what the brits did to venezuela when they seized $2000000000.00 and then as well and gold that was held in the bank of england. their pre text while they were doing so at the request of one, why go and who the hell is one wide go? who's the some guy that the united states in the brits decided one day to a point as the new president event as well? yes, you heard that, right? they appointed some guy as a new president event as well, even though been as well already had a president named nicholas my door. oh. all right, so let's stop and think about this for just a minute. by the way, the u. s. and the brands decide to name out of the blue a new president of venezuela because they don't like the president who is there now . and then they seize the countries assets at the best of the president they appoint, you know, look whether you agree or disagree with that, as well as present government or their politics. does any country really have the right to seize any other countries?

gold and can their bank, who did so ever be trusted again? after doing so. that of course, there is a reported 600000000000 in russia's assets frozen recently by the united states, the u. k. and canada. in march, 1 of the most significant sanctions ever inflicted on any country, and it leads one to as give a questionable, controversial or be stabilizing invasion of any other country be at the opinion of whatever other country is reason enough to take away a country's assets. well then, lo and behold, we have to ask, i mean, just to be fair as an american, why wasn't the same thing been done to us? here in the us, after the united states invaded iraq? i mean, there's the seizure of funds from russian billionaires as well,

or as they've come to be called in the western media rushes oligarchs. oligarchs is a funny word, isn't it? according to a p, some $30000000000.00 and bank accounts, home jobs and other assets had been seized from russian citizens $30000000000.00. now look, i'm a fan of russian billionaires are all la garza, whatever the you want to call them for that matter. but what about us billionaires? i mean, there's really begs the question, doesn't it? should anyone who profits from a war or corruption of any type have their asset seeds, okay. you want to go there, let's do it. how about c o is of lockheed martin, boeing, general dynamics rafia and who got the smiles of the useless and disasters? wars in afghanistan and iraq, just the name of a few where the us deployed 8 trillion dollars and they got that. me say that again, 8 trillion dollars. and if you want to find american all the guards, by the way, there's plenty of candidates out there. in fact,

you can look no further than this guy. see that guy right there? that's billionaire harlem cro. he was recently alleged when he's been buying off supreme court justices like to. 2 thomas, with lavish vacations and yachts of trips around the world that even a house for his mother. this is such an important topic and you know, i think we've got the perfect guest to talk about this column mix in front of the show veteran radio and political analysts. post of critical our on sputnik joins us now to talk about this. the idea that we have come now to a point where our beloved country, the united states of america can go around by the way. we're not the only ones, but let's just start there. literally freezing other countries assets in the case of what happened was with venezuela 1st cool with the, you know, their assets in the bank of england, they literally just dollar gold. i mean installer gold. um,

what do you make of this? well what, what, how would you characterize this trend garland? well i, i think what we're looking at is this is the essence of the unit polar order. this is the essence of the rules based order. us laid world order, all of the euphemisms that tony blink and use this to talk about how the neo cons, views view the world. it arbitrarily an arbitrary application of the law as opposed to rule of law. where in the us can basically do anything they want to and no one can push back the problem with that is that now there are alternative options for countries, alternative options for corporations. and so now that the options are there in the past where a particular country corporation, nation, etc, didn't have a lot of alternatives, as far as international economic and banking infrastructure. they can that, that bricks is rising china, russia,

etc. and so they could get away with it before because people didn't have other places to sink their money. now that there are other places to sink their money. um, people are simply going to look for other options that are safer. and what do you make of just the bank of england case by itself, the fact that they literally and the way they want to buy on it was so fascinating the united states in england get together and they name a new president of venezuela. they say this dude white though is now your president, then they get, why don't the guy say name, not the people of it as well. who would like to know the united states names of the president then gets that guy who they name to sign off on their season of the gold from that country, which he is not really the president of my door. oh is the sign off on it and then they sees what was it $2000000000.00, i think. yeah. $2000000000.00 a gold that just seems handy is held by that. yeah. and in addition,

they also use one go, idaho. in a last, they are scheme to use the courts to grab cit, go, which is the, the international energy powerful energy corporation that was owned by the venezuelan government. they seized the money ostensibly we were told that they um, that they transferred to money the money to the one g y o and his alternative government to run the country. whatever that meant. but it seems that most of the money and cisco has disappeared again. what we have is simply a criminal. so international criminal scheme, and you know, the reality is this is not due. and i believe it's somewhere around the 19141930, some of 13. somewhere around in the united states, literally invaded 80, physically invaded 80, physically went to their vault and took the gold out of the eighty's volt and brought it back to the united states. so as i said, the big difference now is when the world sees these kinds of things,

they look for other alternatives and options. that's the big difference. they've gotten away with this for so long that they feel that they can do virtually anything. and when we see the, a hypocritical arguments that are made, whether is about conflicts, international criminal justice, the union, etc, that are made, the leaders of the united states are living in a past world. i mean, if you look at the up, let's face it, look at the age of the joe binds the mitch mcconnell, the people who leave this country. they are still living at a time when they could get away with this stuff. and the world has passed them by and then we're going to pay the price economically. i think what they're doing now is economic warfare and economic warfare is very different from no direct warfare. now, i do know this has gone on for some time, especially in the latin america with the c i a, in places like guatemala and columbia and the dominican republic, etc,

etc. but even in those cases, they were working usually with marines who they had also sent in the c i a was heavily involved. now it just seems like it's banking transactions where we say ours is bigger than yours. and we're just going to take what you got as. yeah, well, there's another major factor. i think that's changed to change the game. and that is that the, the us, when after rush, they went after, you know, there are 3 world powers, russia, china, and the united states in the united states. finally, after going after, you know, smaller countries to do it for additionally going after countries that were unable to stand up, the us international power, they finally decided, okay, we're going to go after russia and we're going to take them down economically. and if you look at the, if you look at the sanctions against china, the us is literally saying we have this international internet, a economic infrastructure, and we'll use that to take out the big guys. what that done is that sent the message to all countries, such as, say, a saudi arabia, say to people to the billionaires worldwide who, you know,

what parking their money and do by the u, a. e. and they had it out, some of it in london. it sent that message to them, but no one is safe from the international power players felt okay. yeah, they'll go after the little guys, they'll go after some left. this countries in south america or africa, but we're too big. they won't touch us in going after russia and china, they've changed the game. everything you're saying is true, but it always comes back to this. and this is what should bother. all of us, not just me as an american. these things that my country is doing to other countries which seem terrible, it's outright thievery. it seems to me to go unchecked because there is nothing in the system. neither are politically of players nor are media players are jerks. suppose that reporters and journalist to cover it to say it and to fight for little countries out there who say we're not going to stand,

we're not going to stand for this because it's wrong and we're not supposed to be cheerleaders. were supposed to be truth tellers that that's, that's my biggest complaint with what fits and themes, given what you and i do for a living, garland, how to use, how does it sit with you? well, you know, the said state of affairs is this, that the u. s media is now simply on an operation arm of the us government, particularly the us state department and the, and the intelligence communities. and what they do actually is they act as a medium to rather than cover what the government is doing to cover up what the government's doing. i firmly believe that if the american people in the aggregate understood what their government is doing and understood why that it would be rejected. so we're at a point now where what they're doing is so obvious and so wrong that they have to hide it from the american people. and that's the now the job of the united states

media. sadly, we're now in a country where if you have an alternative perspective for perspective, when you make an attempt to, to voice that on social media, you'll be sense or mainstream media. you won't get back on anymore as you and i both well know. so the media, they just cover me in for these uh, you know, kind of like a mob lawyer here there to cover the crowds. it does seem though, recently we've never gone as far as we've gone, especially in the case of russia. the numbers are astronomical. the assets taken from oligarchs. i'm no fan of all the guards, trust me. but i think we just, we got just as many in this country as they do over there. but the fact that we're just taking private assets away from countries and people seems to me like almost a bridge too far and where will this lead? i'm concerned, it's what we're going to talk about with god next. and when we come back to stay there, girl, i will continue this conversation on the inside. by the way,

if you want to continue this conversation, we can do so on twitter or x or whatever. you call it these days. my handle. rick sanchez, tv. that's rick sanchez, tv. let me know what you think. what do you agree or disagree? i'll see you there. so when we come back, the money that used to be in the bank of afghanistan, who does it belong to now? us or f dentist in the,

the russian states, never as one of the most sense be the best to him then i'll send, send up the speed. what else calls question about this? even though we will then in the european union, the kremlin mission, the state on the russians cruising and split the ortiz full neck, even our video agency, roughly all the band on youtube, the fitness center, even closer to the

after the end of world war 2, the national liberation movement, it'd be an intensified dramatically, haven't driven away the japanese occupiers. the vietnamese patriots by no means wanted the return of the former french colonizers. but brands did not want to lose the rich colony and decided to beat the opposition by board. in december 1946, a full scale war broke out. the v. i mean, they 3 audit organization led by whole team in inflicted heavy losses on the french . the invaders were in raged. according to western historians, up to 250000 lives of peaceful v, and these were on their contents. the colonialist widely used the practice of mass rape of b and these women as revenge on the guerrillas. in 1947 of the french,

destroyed the village of knights rock, murdering 170 women. and 157 children. however, terror did not help. in 1954, the vietnamese defeated the french army and the decisive battle of gen, being full, almost $12000.00 french soldiers and officers, including the commander general of the categories. and his command staff were captured, the capitulation of a huge garrison at a demoralizing effect in europe. the french laughed vietnam, but they were replaced by even more violent and much stronger invaders. the american hard times were awaiting vietnam again the . so let's continue with this last year, president barton announced that he was transferring $3500000000.00 from afghanistan

to a trust fund established in washington. the president said that he was doing so because he wanted it to be available for humanitarian aid and for possible legal claims from the families of the victims of $911.00. something that happened more than 20 years ago. right. so you have to ask yourself, we have to ask ourselves, is in our place to take their money and we're back with uh, got a nixon veteran radio and politic line list the voice of the critical our on the sputnik and i guess we can have this conversation without cutting to the chase, and that is the currency of what's happening right now. $600000000000.00 in russian assets had been frozen by the united states and the united kingdom and canada. that is an astronomical number. $600000000000.00. i

don't even know where to begin. garland with that number. oh, well i, i think it reflects a desperation. it's kind of like a person who jo was, you know, you've heard the infamous analogy of someone who yells to get what they want. they don't get what they want, and the only thing they know how to do is jo, louder and louder, and the latter, they yelled, the less they get what they want, the us empire, when after russia, you know, it was a full spectrum attack and diplomatically, economically etc, with the economic situation didn't pan out the way they had suspected, they decided, okay, we'll take more, we'll get more if we can just take their money. i think some of it also is out of your anger and emotion, the anger, it rushes to have the temerity to exist and to try to, you know, expand the there and you know, their economic power in the world which every country has a right to do so they're angry, they're trying to take them out,

they don't know what to do, and they're just going to take more and more. and of course, let's not forget, there's the issue of green here. look at what happened to libya when the nato over through libya, likes for somewhere between $40.00 and $70000000000.00 from a small country like liberty of their sovereign. well, fine disappeared, but it didn't disappear, it was stolen. so i would imagine a part of this assembly greet and they're going to steal some of this. and, you know, the criminals will divided amongst themselves as best they can. but there will be a severe price. i mean, but i mean, it's easy to just say empire and for and criminals and all that thing, but we're not talking about criminals. and we're not talking about the empires. we're talking about a nation, the united states of america, washington. one of the most admired countries on the face of the earth, acting in a belligerent way. and no one seems to be checking them. and you know, aside from the countries that are being victimized in this case, and that's just easy to do, you just say, well, it's putting,

you don't need to listen to him. he's hitler, he's a criminal, as they often do. it has to go beyond name calling and this type of activity i guess i'm looking for for a solution from you is there was, well, i'll put it like this. you know, the nature of the world orders. that is, that a solution is arising even as we speak. remember, you know, difficult times that never changes a person, and it exposes their initial nature. so what we're seeing, this is what the empire is people for many years thought the, you know, in the united states felt that they were living on a luxury liner. and the reality is they were living on a pirate ship. they were on the jolly roger going around the world steel and everybody stuff it is being exposed now, but, but the nature of a world order is, as i said, you have bricks. you have a shanghai cooperation order in recognizing that the u. s. lid economic infrastructure is on trustworthy. it's just natural other countries are saying we

need, we need to build some alternative infrastructures, people who invest capital, what do they want most? and mostly they want stability and secure security with their investments. so this is just natural economic rules that happened. people are seeking an alternative method to have stability where they are, it for their investments. they see the us will steal it. and so they're going to build something else to that, where they can put the money in. and they can be assured in the long term that their funds will be secure. in this new situation. we're now dealing with, with israel and come us and obviously, you know, israel is killing 34 or 5 times as many people as hamas killed and what, how boss did was wrong. but what israel is now doing with the cooperation of the united states with the assistance of the united states is being seen certainly throughout the world, and certainly in the air of world as just dastardly at this point. this balance that you and i just talked about where we see russia starting ravia, china, ron,

even previously to an a certain extent, israel, what is going to happen to that consortium? now with this new wrinkle, with this new potential escalation in the middle east. oh, i think what's going to happen in, you know, i talk to, um, journalists who are based in the middle east and what they're telling me is that the, the people in the muslim world in the middle east now clearly understand that they have to turn to the east they have to turn to russia, china, even india. they have to turn away from the west. they don't trust the waste west anymore. they seem as literally seat in the west as their enemies and they are they of course, this is a very dangerous situation. they want to have this situation to, you know, to be alleviating to dealt with. but uh, that's it. this is the final nail in the economic coughing of the,

of the let's just say the ties between the west and the middle east when this is. so yeah, here's where the power, what, what the, what if it will that, can this, let me ask it this way. is it possible that this can do anything but empower that new consortium as i call it, these countries who used to be outliers who are now coming together and pushing back on the us global economics as well. it will absolutely, absolutely. it will. it will empower the very much because of the issues you look at your, what is the issue with europe as if europe have economic power, industrial power, etc. but what they don't have is the natural resources and what the new a group of powers is coming together. what the new world order is really doing. it's bringing together the countries that have not been the industrialize is bringing together china, russian, india of the industrial powers with the powers of natural resources that have been natural resources, the opec's, africa, etc. so they're creating

a future environment and i need an incubator for great economic power, and they're the, the traditional powers and making enemies of them and that, so there will be no trust to do deals. they just feel like we've got to work together. we've got a bill together, we've got to save our money together. i think that's what you're going to see. a complete lack of trust and a dissolution of the current world order that will be considerably sooner than that . we thought it would be brought to nixon veteran radio and the political analyst and host of the critical our on sputnik radio. thank you, my friend. thank you. so before we go, i want to remind you of our mission. it's simple, really what we want to do is kind of be silo the world. we've got to stop living in these boxes where we only think are truths matters to stone, live in boxes, to does everywhere expansion. and i'll be looking for you right here, where i hope to provide a direct impact the

the motor company for you still nonsense. he's got his new mice. so you are using the whites and what i showed him are you and somebody? yeah, yeah. the exposure also no, i don't mind that. yeah. um, but in this tool disposal setting this to me, it is up savings and you have someone give it to see those who managed to free continue the work of undermining russia. nobody needs team is opening offices in the us. that was supposed to go to louis. i was so sorry, i missed you, sweetie. you on a for me at,

for an office. for the other thing is that sam got the new guy up as easy as a shot throw on issue board. so the democrats here at dogs a deal example because i get ashton, that completely. gotcha. the the games are either old or wide. it's can be started by lines,

please can be scattered by true importance of we can never be of a station. so that transparency is an extraordinary join mistake. patrice then just succeeded in finding documents that exist state and making them available to the public. i mean, what could be more holding back by publishing information and sharing information with the public. he was exercising the right to free speech. he did so in the public interest. wants to so long realize tends to me and golf and, and honestly the biggest of late talk tenuously. i know why advice may know who is the guy that illegal anymore wisely. voltage us, it's for to be on box weighing

a $175.00. used to go through distance. it's all we going to let that stay in the the on the be will pop the us power is out and not the striker game. yeah. mens capital columns just hours all to un security council. imagine to see me say on fridays initial attack. the, the outrage, the united states and this proxy documents and your name. and it may result in not only a fully fledged war in this country to put a conflict that can spread around the world, must go to now says the coalition strikes on. yeah, but as of right class and a violation of international huge demonstrations are held in san a new york on pare on as people make that feelings. no, not about the west informing compet both sides. com as well family,

reject claims.
