i was always critical to Israel and more than critical to Saudi-Arabia. i have thought all this rumours about collaboration between Israel and Saudi Arabia are propaganda from Muslmin extremists. because on the present situation – no acceptance of Israel by the Muslims, no acceptance of Palestine by Israel – it would be against the convictions of both sides. the only conviction Israel and Saudi Arabia could unite is the utter betryal of all Jewish and Muslm values. an Israel working together with Saudi Arabia call the Jewish state is on the fringe of Anti-Semitism and a Saudi Arabia working together with Israel call a Muslim state is an utter insult of Islam
Truely honest analysis! Salute
Ben Norton beautifully setup a question about the petrodollar which was supposed to be one of the focuses of this segment. Too bad Paul Jay punted it and instead waxed on about volatility which we already know plenty about.
Part 4 is not in the playlist.
@PaulJay definitely sounds fearful of the economic fall of the American world empire. Like if other world empires prior to America didn't create their own demise.
No Iraq has the 2nd largest oil reserve! Better get updated…
So can Freideman show proof that MBS has banned the ideology and export of Wahhabism ? Otherwise, f!ck Friedman.
God bless you Jay
Not sure if I agree with Jay. Iran isn't going to flip bombs into Saudi as that would give the US and Israel to invade. But Jay is right that the US loves dictators even though it empties its lung screaming democracy everyday. And he is also right that the US needs to keep the middle east in warlike condition to sell more arms.
Cogent analysis
Paul, You left out the most insidious part of the petro dollar, the banksters are ties into every aspect you mentioned and directly in the governments and corporations.
You know the people who own the Clintons and Obummer. Do you honestly think the banksters who, still launder billions for drug lords dont have other
"Connections" with these thugs to carry out their dirty work? Obummer gave the banksters access to the NSA database. Do you think once OWS was put down with bankster money that the banksters just stopped having access to that nsa database?
You will notice the War mongering is on rotation.
Astute global perspective – thanks Paul!
I'm guessing the one dislike on here is MBS flipping through YouTube on his downtime between awkward public appearances with victims of his crimes.
WHO TF disliked this lol
"….well, suck on thissss…….."
i wish Ben Norton would say "Any time now…."
…..like he was a character from the Elder Scrolls III:Morrowind.
