[00:00] this was when everybody said they thought Iran had attacked Saudi Arabia this was from MSNBC it said just in American intelligence shows that the attack on a major Saudi oil facility was launched from Iran three people familiar with the intelligence tell NBC News now that's NBC News just repeating what the CIA tells them they just yes so that's just so that's not news so that that's the thing like so that way my shows on

[00:31] YouTube so when a breaking news story like this happens YouTube now their algorithm pushes you to places they consider what they called a trusted media news sources like MSNBC or so this is complete bull this is yet what they're doing is pushing you towards the CIA talking points and YouTube was supposed to be the antidote to that and it isn't anymore when it comes to breaking news but at least we get to do it after the fact so that's why I'm doing it I'm showing you this is complete fake news and so when Trump that's the thing - so when Trump says

[01:02] fake news it lands because most of what the corporate news does is fake news especially when it comes to foreign policy and war right so so today soot from from CNN tweeted in the aftermath of that attack so I guess again mr. president you're not gonna do anything and I tweeted at him and I said if you have evidence real intelligence that the

[01:32] Iranians were behind this you have a duty to let us know what it is otherwise keep your neoliberal war mongering opinions to yourself and then he responded but all he said was I never advocated going to war ah so you know what's crazy John is that everybody was afraid that it was Trump who is gonna be the maniac it was supposed to be Trump who was gonna be the guy we can't allow him near the button and it everybody's encouraging Trump to do more bombing

[02:03] yeah everybody is and the intelligence is not there you know as a as a trained CIA analyst we were not allowed to make an analytic judgment without the evidence and there's no evidence they can't say like they've been saying they can't say take our word for it or my favorite one if you knew what I know yeah you saw the intelligence that I've seen you would agree nonsense I worked there for 15

[02:34] years I know you guys just make it up and that's what they do they make it up so I so I want to play this for people this is a minute and a half long and this is them announcing they're sending troops to Saudi Arabia okay here we go the United States has a responsibility to protect our citizens and our interest in the region and the international community has a responsibility to protect the global in a the global economy and international rules and norms he almost said they have to

[03:05] protect the global inequality it's a he almost said that he didn't but he was that close okay here we go well this is threatened by Iran's significant escalation of violence this week I've been in dialog with the Saudi defense minister and other partners about this latest attack to prevent further escalation Saudi Arabia requested international support to help protect the kingdom's critical infrastructure the United Arab Emirates has also requested assistance in response to the kingdom's request the president has

[03:37] approved the deployment of US forces which will be defensive in nature and primarily focused on air and missile defense we will also work to accelerate the delivery of military equipment to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the UAE to enhance their ability to defend themselves the purpose of the additional defensive support we will provide is as follows first to send a clear message that the United States supports our partners in the region second to ensure the free flow of resources necessary to

[04:09] support the global economy and third to demonstrate our commitment to upholding the international rules based order that we have long called on Iran to obey the last one for the and they don't even say used to say spreading democracy and they don't even say that anymore so then even bother so what he what he just said was we're there just to support Saudi Arabia cuz they're our pals and make sure that oil keeps flowing around the world and the third one is is to make sure everybody plays by the rules you know we're the ones that we just drop we

[04:42] just turn Libya into a failed state with slave trading we just killed a million people in Iraq the country right next door to Iran we said trying to do the same thing in Syria we try where it we're the ones who are we're the ones who are the biggest violators we just killed 30 pine nut farmers in Afghanistan two days ago we're the ones who are violating international norms and the terrorists so that's why it's funny that he said we're doing this again nowhereness to help people or to say it's just because Saudi Arabia is our buddy he doesn't say why Saudi

[05:12] Arabia is our buddy he just says they are we got to keep the oil flowing and we got to make sure they follow the rules which so all three of those are and so I like what this guy says and let me get this straight its 2020 and we're putting our forces in danger to babysit some medieval kingdom that treats women like chattel witch saws up journalists which has substantial involvement in the 9/11 attacks and which has its own military equipped with our weapons so didn't Trump just sell them 110 billion dollars

[05:45] worth of weapons what the hell is why do they need us to defend them and if you remember if you voted for Trump because he was an anti interventionist because he would say stuff like this he would say Saudi Arabia should fight their own Wars which they won't or pay us an absolute fortune to protect them and their great wealth trillion so he doesn't do that now he just said they asked so we're gonna send them they're nice people so if you want to impeach Trump it should be over being in bed

[06:15] with a murderous dictator who dismembers journalists and is now committing a genocide in Yemen that Trump is helping yes so no that's why you and peachy guy you noted peachy guy because he wanted to look into the corruption of Joe Biden's kid who was actually corrupt yeah he was actually there's actually something to it you know let me tell you a little bit about Saudi Arabia to Saudi Arabia was the first foreign foreign tour that I ever

[06:47] did as a young junior 25 year old CIA officer I just wrote about this in consortium news last week and I said I was so excited to go the Iraqis had just crossed the Kuwaiti border and they and they took Kuwait and I was sent to Saudi Arabia to sort of babysit the Saudi royal family which was my area of expertise at the time I was so excited every day I would walk to the American embassy in Riyadh from a little apartment that they put me in in the diplomatic quarter and the the embassy

[07:20] was reigned by Saudi guards so every day I would say to the guard I said ah boy I like him may peace be upon you and he would ignore me the the response is supposed to be war like oh my Salaam and upon you peace but he would ignore me and I would do this every day just to see if he would say something when I was going to the embassy and then leaving from the embassy assalamu alaikum and he would ignore me so one day I said to him what's your problem and he was

[07:50] ready with a response and he said you are hired help we hired you to come here and to protect the oil fields we paid you money you're not here because we're friends you're here because we bought you so don't expect thanks and he was exactly right he was right we are hired help to them they're not doing this out of the goodness their hearts they want to buy our weapons to keep Americans working and keep our factories open

[08:22] that's all they don't care one whit about us and another thing too and this is something that Americans just don't know is that there are no Saudi nationals in the Saudi military except at the highest ranks that is Lieutenant Colonel and higher they're all Pakistanis they're hired help and so that's what we're fighting alongside over there so you think any mercenaries that's right because the

[08:53] people of Saudi Arabia will join their own military just like back here in the United States they have to create a financial crisis for it so people will join the military that's we just did a story about that that the student loan crisis is the thing fueling the military recruitment it's nothing it's not people wanting to serve their country or fight communism or terrorism or it's people who don't have any other financial options so the same things happening in Saudi Arabia is they can't get anybody to join their military so they're also trying to create this Yemen crisis this

[09:26] has to fold it cashes in the check that the United States has to come support them they they wanted to test us that's what Yemen is them testing us also EJ could create a crisis so they go you got to join the military we got a crisis right so back to you nobody will take those jobs you know I said I went to I used to go on weekends to OPM saying that's the Saudi Arabian National Guard believe it or not because they sell pork there so if I wanted bacon or sausage

[09:56] I'd have to go to the Saudi National Guard commissary to buy my pork and go back to the diplomatic quarter and I used to say hi to the soldier all the time Muhammad and I would really struggle to understand what the heck this guy was saying because my Arabic was okay at the time it wasn't great and finally I said to one of the guys at the Embassy I have a hell of a time understanding anything that Mohammed says he said Mohammed who I said Mohammed at OPM saying he said Mohamed doesn't speak Arabic I said what are you talking about he said he's from Pakistan

[10:26] he's speaking Urdu he doesn't know how to speak Arabic there are no Saudis over there at the Saudi National Guard they're all Pakistanis and that's how I learned so here we go so I want to show people this just so again the Democrats are going to completely blow the impeachment thing because they're looking at something there it's too narrow in focus and the things they should be a beating up over there both complicit in right that's that's why Nancy why do you think Nancy Pelosi

[10:58] didn't want to impeach George Bush and Dick Cheney or and and had to hold those hearings because was clear they were war criminals and it was clear they lied us into a war and the reason why is because they were smarter than Nancy Pelosi because in 2002 when they started torturing people they told her about it and she didn't tell anybody else which makes her complicit in a war crime which would it came out if they had an impeachment hearing which is why she said impeachment is off the table absolutely right that's why we need a

[11:30] third party in this country at least a viable one that we have are all liars they're both liars and and and if they're in bed one party when it comes to foreign policy and here's John Kerry and he's gonna admit to you the deal we have with Saudi Arabia so the one thing people don't talk about and I showed you here let me just show you this I said I'm offering 1 million dollars for the first corporate newsreader to mention the petrol dollar while reporting that we are sending Americans to protect Saudi oil note that by the way that

[12:02] money still unclaimed no takers still unclaimed that money is still unclaimed just like when Andy Kindler offered a million dollars anybody who could produce a tape of Whoopi Goldberg saying something funny 20 years later still unclaimed that million that was blamed anyway here it is nobody took me up on that and let me just quickly explain to people what the petrodollar is and why were in bed with Saudi Arabia as opposed to Iran which is a mistake the petrol dollars when we went off the gold standard in the 70s

[12:34] Saudi Arabia made a deal with us that everybody would have to monetize if they wanted to buy oil that do it with the United States dollar so whatever their currency was they'd have first convert it to US dollars buy it and then they took a lot of their oil profits and they buy our securities and they own a lot of our Treasuries and all that stuff so that's what the petrol dollar is at its artificially propping up our economy and our dollar and that's why a lot of people speculated that part of the motivation the screwing up Libya was Qaddafi was one to go out of dinar when

[13:06] to go off the petro dollar the whole deal also there's now there's gonna be a petrol Yang and people are talking about um yeah that's not it yang what am I talking about yin yang I got Andrew yang on my mind it's $1,000 a month and yang fedra dollars a thousand dollars that's funny so anyway that's the thing people don't realize and and that's why I when

[13:38] they said it was okay when they passed that law to make it okay to sue Saudi Arabia over 9/11 Barack Obama had to fly to Saudi Arabia to calm everybody down because dope that would truly screw up our economy and so that's why we're in bed with people like Saudi Arabia also the CIA they preferred dictatorships over democracies which is why they are in bed with Saudi Arabia and they overthrew Mosaddegh in the 50s who was the democratically elected president of Iran the CIA instituted a coup to

[14:09] overthrow him because he wanted to keep the oil for his own people and he wanted to spread democracy around democracy is hard to control CIA wants to get rid of democracies in the Middle East replaced them with the theocrats and then dictators cuz they're easier to control which is why we're in bed with right now a neo-nazi organization in the Ukraine and the Saudi Arabia's in the Med so that that's how this works right and nobody gets impeached over installing a Nazi regime in Ukraine nobody get some pizza over committing a genocide in

[14:40] Yemen but somebody gets impeached because they tried to say they tried to go after their political opponent in a bad way that's and by the way that's not gonna fly he's not gonna give him peached it's gonna bolster him just like Russia his highest approval ratings came after Russia gate and now nobody believes the mainstream media the Democrats attacks especially when it comes to something like this who Joe Biden's kid is corrupt in it all right so let me just get to this here I want to show here's respect too so here is

[15:12] John Kerry and he's gonna he's gonna tell you what's really happening with Saudi Arabia and this is in front of a congressional committee countries offering to do respect to Arab country's offering to bear cost and to assess the answer is profoundly yes they have that offer is on the table so he's talking about going into Syria that's when they were trying to get us to everybody was that big push to overthrow Assad and Barack Obama had the

[15:44] line in the sand and all that stuff and so he's saying hey yeah with respect to our Arab friends he means Saudi Arabia they've offered to pay the price for us to overthrow Syria here we go with respect to boots on the ground profoundly no there will be no boots on the ground the president has said that again and again and there is nothing in this authorization that should contemplate it so he's saying we could do it the same way we did Libya no boots on the ground we'll just bomb the

[16:16] out of everybody and turn it into a failed state we'll get somebody to put a bayonet up Assad and then we'll give it we'll get our own what we'll turn it over to Isis who's in bed with Saudi Arabia funded by Saudi Arabia and they'll run the country which is what's happening and so here we go the we reiterate no boots on the ground in terms of what do you do doesn't work I think I'll let general Dempsey speak to the question of targeting as which he can't go into in detail but we have

[16:47] absolute confidence that what our military undertakes to do if it is ordered to do so will degrade the capacity of Assad to use these weapons and and serve as a very strong deterrence and if it doesn't then there are subsequent possibilities as to how you could reinforce that Thank You mr. secretary secretary and the the here comes the key question details on the

[17:18] offer and the proposal on the table what what are the figures that we're talking about so what is the offer from Saudi Arabia what is their financial offer for us if we go and overthrow Assad for it for them what is that what are they offering and he says well we don't know what action we're engaged in right now but they've been quite significant I mean very significant some of them have said that if the United States is prepared to go do the whole thing the way we've done

[17:49] it previously in other places they'll carry that cost that's how dedicated they are does so that you heard that's that's when he's Secretary of State said Saudi Arabia's willing to pay for our entire war if we overthrow Assad that's how dedicated they are to it that's how much the pipeline that they want to send through Syria is worth to them that's what that's about that's the part they don't tell you why do you want to do this for them why do you care why do you care about Syria John Kerry why do you want to overthrow Assad why are you pretending you care about people oh it's cuz Saudi Arabia wants to put a

[18:19] pipeline through so they can also sell natural gas to Europe and they can compete with Russia I got it okay no one tells you that you know tells you that Jackass comedians on YouTube that's who tell you that right and my by the way John am I wrong about that no you're totally right and what he what he meant by that statement was that the Saudis are willing to pay for the last American soldier to go to his death in Saudi Arabia they'll pay for as long as we want to send our men our young men

[18:51] and women to face their deaths in a middle-eastern desert no problem yeah that's exactly what in fact here's WikiLeaks has revealed he had been waiting a long time to hear what Browne told him subsequent statements by brown secretary Schlesinger and others have led to the Saudis to believe that we have offered them virtually a blank check for their security needs Brown subsequent statement in Israel plus the present stalemate at the peace talks have again injected a note of skepticism into the Saudi minds they have decided

[19:23] that there is no better time or opportunity to see if the u.s. check is good and how much money is in the account and that's what's happening in Yemen and so that's what's going on and here here is Julian Assange to let us know that when we're in bed with Saudi Arabia we're literally in bed with Isis okay now we've showed you how we were in bed with Isis in Libya we showed you how we're in bed was in Syria and of course the Washington Post and CNN smear for telling the truth about that and

[19:54] here's julian assange to tell you have helped create there's a early 2014 email from hillary clinton so not so long after she left Secretary of State to her campaign manager John Podesta that email it states that ISIL Isis is funded by Saudi Arabia and Qatar the governments of Saudi Arabia and Qatar now this is a actually I think this is the most

[20:27] significant email in the whole collection and perhaps because Saudi and Qatari money is spread all over the place including including into many media institutions all serious analysts know even the US government has mentioned or agreed with that some Saudi figures have been supporting Isis funding Isis but the Dodge has always

[20:57] been that's what it's just some rogue princes using their cut of the oil money to do what they like but actually the government disapproves but that email says that no it is the governments of Saudi and the government or in Qatar that have been funding Isis the Saudi so there you go that email reveals that it's the government of Saudi Arabia that is literally funding Isis not rogue

[21:27] Prince's with their share of the oil money which is what people have said before again this doesn't get reported even when we're sending troops to Saudi Arabia the people reporting that don't tell you about this they don't tell you that Saudi Arabia is in bed with Isis they don't tell you they're committing of genocide in Yemen and we're helping them they don't tell you anything nothing which is why we have Donald Trump as president they also don't tell you that al Qaeda is now called an Isetta front in since Syria and that we are funding

[22:00] them and arming them we don't call them al-qaeda anymore we call the Minnesota yeah that's right there's there's a lot that our government isn't telling us or there's a lot that our government is lying about to us visa the Saudi Arabia at the war in Syria the war in Libya the war in Yemen the warrior the war there they're just lying to us and isn't it sad to see like that's why I think it's so important that Tulsi Gabbard is in those debates because she's the one who

[22:32] stood up to Trump and said we are we are soldiers were not your and we're not we don't work for Saudi Arabia you're not our pimp we're not prostitutes she laid it out like in nobody's business right and she's a soldier but she's a medic right which is what I like about her and so that's why it's great that she's because Bernie as great as he is on domestic policy his Achilles heel is foreign policy and he often repeats CIA talking points and I'm a big Bernie backer but that's his that's his blind spot and I think she

[23:02] really fills it in perfectly would you agree I agree completely and that's why I was so thrilled that she she met the DNC's phony numbers to make the next debate because we really need Tulsi Gabbard in that debate I agree with you about Bernie Sanders I love Bernie Sanders you know when I was working on Capitol Hill I used to I used to do the same thing every day I I'd walk to the office I'd boot up my computer and while it was booting up I'd go down to the cafeteria and get a cup of coffee and every single day there was Bernie

[23:32] Sanders sitting at a table inviting literally anybody who walked in to have breakfast with him sit at the table and the only thing he insisted on was that you call him Bernie so I love Bernie Sanders he's one of us but he does have an Achilles heel and it's foreign policy yeah John Kerry aku who was the host of loud and clear on Sputnik radio also he's a columnist for reader supported news anyplace else we should tell them to go check you out at Jon Consortium
