1:30 am
its own praises saying america is stronger, its enemies are a week or he didn't talk about security, which is something remarkable about this administration and never talked about anyone security. he thinks he did a bang up job and he's very, very pleased with himself passing the baton to the next administration. how will history judge anthony blink and go ahead, michael. well, i have absolutely no doubt that he thinks to himself that he did a bang up job, and i have no doubt that the new york times and the financial times will judge him as a defender of the global liberal democracy in history is going to judge him at best as a very mediocre secretary of state. as someone who is little more than a coggan, we'll avoid a mouth piece of the transatlantic liberal system. and
1:31 am
one in which i have, as i said before, he has no doubt that he did a successful job, but his name will be connected to a rather unpopular presidency. one that has enabled genocide in the palestinian territories. another uh, that has been part of a war machine that has perpetuated the war in ukraine against russia. and i'm sure that the critiques of his administration of his leadership will be something that he never really reads. but you know, if the absolute best, if he's lucky, he'll be considered little more than a footnote. yeah, well, i mean, for the rest of us, i hope that just this will catch up with them at some point. and we all know that that's unlikely today, but who knows in the future? alexander? we also it will. i'm glad that michael brought up the genocide in the palestinian territories. but there's also he thinks his praises about the proxy war against
1:32 am
russia. a war that was completely unnecessary and could have been easily avoided. and what's really remarkable, as anthony blinking is leaving office of people like michael waltz, that will be the national security council advise. and the next administration is talking about how to undo and, and the catastrophe, the bite and ministration perpetuated. but he does what he's saying is completely unconcerned about the alexander i might ask to lincoln did a good job for because he certainly did it and did not do a good job for the united states. however, if we look at israel, i think he did a great job for israel, and that's probably who is very pleased with his work as well. remember that at the beginning of the october war between gaza, between him off and israel when that started off blink and moved his office to tell of the even took up a residence in israel for i don't remember how many weeks,
1:33 am
but it's kind of is that this is an unprecedented thing for the united states secretary of state to move to a for a nation as if he's coordinating efforts, there are something this is quite strange to have from someone who is supposed to represent the interest of the united states and not a foreign power, for example, is real. we might have to take that into account. and with mike waltz, we should also be very careful of him. because in front of a domestic audience in front of americans, yes, he's going to say that he wants to undo the damage caused by blinking caused by the bite and administration. but we have to consider what he's now saying with just that he's also supporting the ukrainians, reducing their minimum draft age to 18. so he's calling for the same sorts of things in ukraine that the bite in administration is calling for right now. so mike
1:34 am
waltz doesn't care how many ukrainians are slaughtered in this war on the front lines. for him, it's all just part of the big political game and increasing the trumpet, ministrations, leverage, and potential negotiations with russia. so there's actually appears to be very little difference between this incoming trump administration on the foreign policy front compared to the current bite and administration. well above view of rapidly moved into the 2nd point. well, what i'd hoped to be the 2nd part of the program, but i'm going to go with the flow here. michael. i mean i, i agree. i mean, you have like keith kellogg. you know, he's supposed to be, would be the point man for ukraine. and he's talking about maximum price for against the rad. i mean, well, i don't know what administration he was speaking for the current one or the one that's going to come about. go ahead, michael. as well. i mean, as far as iran is concerned, both the trump and bite and ministrations are in lock step. right. the wrong is
1:35 am
public enemy. number one, when it comes to the middle east, it's been long regarded as the greatest belligerents, the great is rival to us. american interest, nothing. yahoo has long regarded iran also as one of the biggest obstacles against what he regards as stability. iran is the enabler of his bowl. um it, it propped up the former assad regime in syria. and so, you know, in this step um it's, it's, it's, it's tempting to think the trump is going to be somehow different how from that of the, by the ministration, when it comes to iran and the middle east. the 2 of them are basically just continuing the same strategy that the united states has been employing within that region. since you know, time in memorial. so, you know, we like to think many people like to think the trump is going to be a breath of fresh air against, you know, against the,
1:36 am
by the ministration. a new sense in american foreign policy. maybe that would be for ukraine. i don't know. right. ukraine is one story, trump seems to be eager to end. that conflict is to simply redirect all efforts in the middle east. but when it comes to that, um, you know, there was very little change between bite and wall between, i'm sorry, between the blinking and, and waltz and between bite and trump. well, you know, alexander, i mean, since the crane is being brought up here. um i, i, i just, it, uh, i'm just befuddled on how the incoming administration, the individuals we have mentioned here, discontinue the same, talking points as if they're saying something different. i mean we, we had walls so he goes on the blood shed must come to an end. paraphrasing of course, must come to an end as trench warfare must come to went in. but we all, in the same paragraph, they must, the lower the conscription age and ukraine. i mean, what do you see talking about that? that's just more for the meat grinder. i, i,
1:37 am
and i don't know how it's being seen. we seen in the united states, but these people are saying, well, but it's the same conversation. maybe it's 2 sides of the same calling, but it's the same message alexander, to, i would say that it's not being seen in the united states. the united states has one of the most rigorous and vicious censorship regimes in the entire world. and we have to understand that the american people by and large don't really understand what's going on because they're not being told. so frankly, cross talk is one of the only available widely broadcasted places where you can get english language information that is accurate. everything domestically produced in the united states is complete nonsense from ivory left or the right. they're both just trying to manipulate their audiences and slightly different ways, but in ways which are always beneficial to the business of leads in the united
1:38 am
states. and what we're starting to see now is that the american funds to some extent american. so some of them are americans, but the business, the leads in the united states, i hate the american people. there is no other way to describe it. and we look at what you on musk and other elements of the new trump administration are pushing in terms of the h one b work visa program, trying to bring in, who knows how many millions of people from india? well, we've already flooded the american labor market and destroyed a low skill labor in the united states through immigration from latin america. so the united states doesn't really need more low skill immigration, and there isn't a huge pool of labor to draw on for that in latin america anymore. anyway, most of the people who wanted to get into the united states already have but who has not gotten into the united states. it's people who could take on sort of tech
1:39 am
roles and middle the middle income, middle wage, middle class positions, particularly the sorts of jobs that the h one b visa program would allow. so the business of leads of the united states are going to now use the trump administration in order to do massively increase the number of low wage workers coming in to displace the american work well and the per phallic center as wait, wait with the this is america 1st policies i'm being facetious, of course. that's one of the things we're gonna find that michael before we go to the break here. do you remember what joe biden said when he was inaugurated? what kind of foreign policy he wanted to have you met? i mean, this is not a trick question, but he said that his administration will have a middle class foreign policy. do you remember that? what happened to that? i have to confess. i don't remember that. well, i mean we're, and we're, we're going to quickly forget the bike in ministration. believe me keep going. i
1:40 am
mean, i, you know, i, i, the one thing i remember is, you know, nothing fundamentally will change that. you know, that i remember, i mean, advise me, was selected by the democratic party to be the gatekeeper of the current neo liberal system. and you know, it, to that extent. i think he's been highly successful in providing a platform for the professional managerial class to continue to exert leverage over that working class that he claims to still think that he comes from as well. i mean my michael, the, the, the of the p. m saves, i'm glad you brought it up here because as we move forward a week, next week, we will have the next president of the united states, the 47. but it seems to me that they're trading one set of all the guards and billionaires for another set because i don't see, i didn't see the last 4 years,
1:41 am
the middle class foreign policy. and i don't see a mag of foreign policy because of the people that drum as around him or a gentleman. i'm going to interrupt myself. we're going to go to a short break. and after that short break, we'll continue our discussion on anthony blinking legacy space with our to the show room. just don't have to shape out the application and engagement because the trails when so many find themselves will support, we choose to look for common ground the all americans. today, our armed forces joined our nato allies in air strikes against the serbian forces.
1:42 am
below, forgot village spread through us with them and we saw for we conclude, disregarding a swim faced ease of the nation, which is reinforced with the depleted uranium that has a special capacity to say that trade pro my new car safety point of view, there is no radiological, or even and not even significant consequences, the, the symmetry seems endless. a real city of the dead, where it's very easy to get lost. similar graveyards now exist in iraq and afghanistan. they may soon appear in ukraine with thousands of square kilometers, have already been contaminated with deadly dust. for the next 4 and a half 1000000000 years, the
1:43 am
liquid looked at the doors. no greetings and the police looked on any better. she hadn't you almost left cuz i didn't expect me to go into the life of to much longer filled up just about the ciocca price for you because of the little business learners. are you familiar with buddy? some of the initial meeting in the past got that's really not organized because i had a spanish so i send you a discount, but it's all about them. yeah, but i'm using it or do you watch any sports? it's a little less to shut somebody listing. what you're not going when you want them, which is rachael, doesn't like us and us so less than for almost $137.00 to me. those are the buses for clothes unless somebody number i to i thought, but i thought of us with all of that or i seen your and your say will be will
1:44 am
the welcome next across stock were all things are considered. i'm peter roosevelt. to mind you were discussing lincoln's legacy, the okay, let's go back to alexander. i mean, one of the things that is quite fascinating to want or maybe, but now depending on how you want to look at it, is that, you know, we had an election in november and in many ways kind of world historical. we've never seen this kind of political come back considering the establishing law fair against trump. it's control of the media of hollywood, about academia, etc, etc. and they still came out on top of most like a last or it's
1:45 am
a figure and he won the popular vote. okay. and so i usually don't invoke up this program. brock obama, but i will elections have consequences or at least they should. and i think that, you know, what we've seen since the election to the, to the point that we're talking right now is that, you know, uh, the, the trump team on spring break. they're having a wonderful time the right me on their parents gave them credit card, so they're having a wonderful time. but it's going to get very, very sober next week. go ahead. alexander. well, we have to consider who won the 2024 election because we have to remember that the 2020 election was stolen. and a lot of people in the united states are living in a fairy land where they just decided to forget that trump won the 2020 election, but was denied the office. well now and 24. somehow the democrats managed to get 6000000 fewer votes than in 2020. how does this happen?
1:46 am
well, we know that something on the order of 15000000 fake votes were created in order to get bite in the presidency. and so this time the democrats just didn't do that. so why? well, the only logical explanation is that trump made a deal with people who have the influence to prevent the democratic party machine from stealing another presidential election when they already control the executive office. so they have everything going for them and they just decided to let it go. well, have it for me by then by the houses that are involved in all fair. i'm not going to disagree with you. but in all fairness the, the drums, but victory was so overwhelming that it was really hard to deny. and we didn't have the conditions of cobit as well, which is an important call the out here, but i get your point here. let me go back to michael and, and test can i was returning to blinking in,
1:47 am
in an important way here. one of the things that divide in ministration did with its foreign policy, is it really turned the united states into a pariah on the world stage. americans don't know this are not aware of this year, but the culpability of the biden ministration with the genocide is not going to go away. ever. go ahead and test gun ever. and you know, i've been thinking about whether or not people like bite in and blinking are directly complicit with in this genocide. and i know that this is a very controversial word to use, but that's exactly what it is. and i would say absolute best people like blinking, inviting are not come are directly complicit because this is the actions and the decisions of the is really state. and he is really government,
1:48 am
but they're enablers. their defenders at the international front, economically speaking, they provide israel with carte blanche support militarily, diplomatically at the un security council. israel would not be able to do what it does without the complete support from the united states. and we need to be very clear that next week when trump takes over, this is not going to change exactly. exactly. it is not going to change. i, i very rarely go on twitter x, whatever. it's called these days. but i warned everyone that you know, you can have a good feeling right now. but we, we could go from easily genocide, joe, to genocide dawn. and it's going to have because the world is not going to see it differently. donald trump is not some great hope to change the world. what people
1:49 am
are hoping is that maybe he will start adjusting american fault foreign policy that would be in the interest of the american middle class. as i pointed out at the 1st part of the program here. so yeah, alexander, you know, this is what we are faced right now because there's going to be a huge disappointment. and i would even in what ways are to say within the mag a movement go ahead, is donald trump is beholden to his donors. and he took a $100000000.00 from miriam, 8 olsen, reportedly in exchange for commitments on supporting and his railey annexation of the west bank. $100000000.00 is not something that trump can just walk away from he needed it. and he's going to need the support of these people in order to be able to get anything done, whatever he may try to get done in this administration. so we have to understand also the direction of the relationship between the united states and israel. the united states does not necessarily support is real. rather we should understand.
1:50 am
the united states is a vassal state of israel. we saw when leaving nothing yahoo came to washington and he got a record number standing ovations. practically every sentence. he said in congress, it was a standing ovation for longer than the sentence took to say it was, it was absolutely ridiculous. it was disgusting to the c. o. 4 and liter applauded . built in this way, when he's carrying out this genocide in the middle east attacking multiple countries. and this is what the united states has been reduced to. it's a vassal state of israel, and trump understood that to his credit, perhaps from a campaigning perspective. and took advantage of it during his campaign and now we're going to read the consequences of that during his administration. you know, michael is alexander, brings up a good point. i'm not necessarily, i don't think i really necessarily agree, i mean as a facile of state. it seems to me that america,
1:51 am
the american foreign policy once the continued hedge of money, particularly in the middle east. and israel is its proxy and well they commit. so uh, a jet aside, but the base continue are had gemini. i think it's more like that kind of relationship right there. it's, yeah, it's because the americans want to maintain, had gemini and deny countries like around influence. they're willing to go along with the most growth test acts that humans can commit against each other. it's more or less how i look at it. what are your thoughts, michael? yeah, i'm in agreement with you on this with this, this big debate as to who controls who, you know, some came to believe that is real controls the united states. other say that the united states is the one that ultimately uses israel as a proxy. and i'm of the mind in which american foreign policy, regardless of democrat or republican in the white house as
1:52 am
follows, the same strategy and the same policies within strategic areas like the middle east, within the study of international relations. we have a model colds, you know, commitment theory or commitment problems is largely written by the great i, r c or as james fear on. in other words, the united states is committed to propping up defending certain states and certain policies and regions around the world. let's just use it as real as a good example of this, the wrong is the bad guy is real, is the good guy. and it doesn't matter what is real. does iran does? it gets much more prudent for the united states to continue with the same policy then completely for 1st thing tactics, making it look like we are now suddenly abandoning our ally, despite the fact that the ally is now committing grotesque acts of multiple war
1:53 am
crimes, not just in the palestinian territories, but also in southern lebanon. they are now just openly occupying large areas of southern syria. if they just simply add exit along with the goal on heights. i am very doubtful that american foreign policy will condemn this in the same way they condemned russia's annexation of territories in ukraine. so simply because of the fact that it makes more sense to continue down the path that you are on, then to do a complete $180.00, and seem like you are now abandoning your allies because of the new administration or just new geo political realities. you know, it's, it's very interesting, alexander, the calling card of anthony blinking during the past disastrous for years was the rules based order. and i was really interesting because they got the americans got all their minions in europe to start mimicking it over and over again. is
1:54 am
a bit of had some kind of meaning, but what we have is a rules disorder at the end of this administration. i, we all agree here that there is continuity with the, with a uh, a obama administration or a bush administration tolerate genocide. we don't know, okay, that's only a hypothetical thing here, but to, to, to gloss it over in the rules based order. i certainly hope that, that, that term is forever retired. go ahead. alexander. yeah, i think that america has not been taken very seriously by the adults in the room like russia and china and other emerging economies around the world when the secretary of state flies around the world. and all he produces is a bunch of slogans designed for domestic consumption in america. it's a very embarrassing, very embarrassing. but you'll see that when lincoln was in d. c,
1:55 am
he would be simply doing the jobs that israel would send him. so his job was to run cover for an attorney while he would like sandra. i mean the phrase is he was israel's lawyer. right? right, right. so he's giving press conferences and explaining that a ceasefire is very close to the all who has agreed to a cease fire in the very same day. nothing yahoo has already announced that he will not agree to any cease fire. obviously the administration news at obviously blinking, knew that and yet they went inside it. so what could this be except for domestic propaganda purposes or just to confuse people or confuse some observers as to how disconnected they could be. but we know they cannot be this disconnected. they're in regular communication. okay michael, we have one last minute here. i'm going to be a little provocative with you. i started out the program by claiming that anthony, blinking wasn't a diplomat. does that make you considering his 10 years?
1:56 am
is that make you miss henry kissinger? you know, the, you know, i'll just leave it at that. no, no, no. what i'm so what, what my, my point is, my point is, i'm a, and i'm obviously being provocative here. michael. but, you know, the, the, you know, the, be the, the going to try nixon going to china? things like that. this is what diplomats do. i mean there's, there's a lot of collateral damage, obviously, but that was thinking strategically about the national interest, even if we disagree with the outcomes. but the point is, is it, and i think it's already been mentioned here, is that now the secretary of state is just the cog in the works. and diplomacy has no role in american foreign policy. unfortunately, i don't think it's gonna change as all the time we have gentlemen want to take my guess and tests good. and here in moscow. and of course i want to thank our viewers for watching us here at r t c. you next time. remember, the,
1:57 am
the russian states never is as tight as i'm one of the most sense community best most i'll send, send the progress be the one else calls question about this, even though we will then in the european union, the kremlin media mission, the state on the russians cruising and supports the r t spoke neck, even our video agency, roughly all the band on youtube tv services for the question,
1:58 am
did you say steve or twist, which is the equipment we want you to do is you know, greetings from the most and the bodies of worked on any about that i see how you almost ask us heading in especially the going to the voice of the month lender to fill up just the boys are the parent joe shippers for you cuz office little business. most learners, are you familiar with building some of the initial meeting and that was great. that's really not going to suggest that it was spanish. so i assume you just did it, sir, and you got them. yeah. but them usually you watch, and of course it's
1:59 am
a little less to shut somebody listing what you're not going when you want to move a rate for the customers. so less than for almost $437000000.00. those are the buses for foot unless somebody number i think i thought, but i thought about what for february, let us and you say you will be with the
2:00 am
the south korea's in page present dentist obtained and is expected to stand trial last month. marshall little crisis. you said you were jack charges of insurrection and abuse of power, so it saves. he wants to avoid bloodshed, also this out on a wrong and delivered on the outgoing us secretary of state shines, the lincoln is repeatedly has to. does he attempts to lay out a plan for a logo from a sketch to learn to live a deal between his while and to must also, the growing number of idea of troops refused to sub on less than agreement is reached. that's the.
