0:00 Hello, everybody. I don't see Cousin It yet. Is she coming in, Bridget? I believe so. I think she's got a phone call and then she'll join us as soon as she's done. All right. Let me set a couple of these people up while we're waiting. And if you guys would please.

0:31 Share the space with all of your followers. And we are going to get started. We're going to talk since we did Turkestan yesterday that most people probably had never even heard of. I thought the logical.

0:59 follow on to that since we're in that area is um afghanistan and um most people um think of afghanistan as um a i mean maybe fourth or fifth world country because um in many ways it's not even a third world country um but actually

1:31 The history of Afghanistan is very interesting for many different reasons. But I'm going to tell you a couple of things that you probably are not aware of. In the long time ago, before we became aware of Afghanistan,

2:02 um, in the United States, the, um, Brits had, um, basically the opposite, um, experience in Afghanistan as they did in China. Cause we've talked a couple of times about the boxer wars and the opium wars, um, that they had with China.

2:27 And they did that twice and they won both times. But if you go back to the history of Afghanistan, what you find is the Brits tried three different times to subordinate, colonize, whatever you want to call it, the Afghans under British rule.

2:59 And all three times they got their butt kicked. There was, I mean, I'm not going to go into the blow by blow of the wars themselves, but the British were rebuffed each time. So just real quick, I want to...

3:27 talk briefly about this part here. There was some division that occurred when it was, you know, like in the 1700s, but it was united in the, it was divided based on civil wars from about the late 1700s until the mid-1800s. There were some wars fought to basically reunite.

3:57 led by a guy by the name of Dost, D-O-S-T, Mohammed Khan, K-H-A-N. And those went on for the better part of about 40 years. And they basically kind of reunified. Mohammed died in 1863.

4:27 They kind of regressed a little bit. There was some additional fighting. And it was around that time that the British kind of wanted to take advantage of that. So the British, what they called Raj, R-A-J, that was located in India, tried to subordinate.

4:58 Afghanistan to them. My cousin is here. If you can add her as a co-host. Thank you. Got it. And so that was referred to as the first Anglo-Afghan war. There was another one. So the first one happened around 1838 to 42.

5:25 The second one happened around the late 1870s. And then a third time in 1919, they tried again. But what emerged after the 1919 conflict was an independent kingdom of Afghanistan. And that got established in 1920, or excuse me, 1926.

5:55 And that was kind of the follow on to what was referred to as the Emirate of Afghanistan. So they actually had a monarch, Manula Khan. And this monarch lasted about 50 years until Zahir Shah.

6:25 was overthrown in 1973, and that's when we get the first Republic of Afghanistan. Now, in 1973, which is kind of where I wanted to start this, because this is very interesting, the king

6:55 was basically they basically had a revolution and um the king went into exile and the guy that come out on top was um uh diod khan d-a-o-u-d and his last name is k-h-a-n so khan

7:25 basically led his forces into Kabul. And he had basically his senior general was named Abdul Karim Mostagni. And they basically overthrew the monarchy while the monarchy was

7:53 recuperating from some medical issues in Italy. So Khan was assisted by a whole bunch of people that was inside the king's military. And there's a lot of controversy as to whether or not this was actually

8:24 A CIA enabled coup because of the education that had been provided to the people that were in charge of or orchestrated the coup. So I have not formed an opinion on that one yet.

8:55 but definitely have done some research on it. But I think it's too difficult to tell based on what everything, all the other stuff that was going on in Afghanistan at the time. So the king decided not to retaliate and he abdicated the throne and remained in Italy in exile.

9:24 So basically, that ended about two centuries of empire-type leadership in Afghanistan. So about five years later, after the original coup in 73, there was another coup in which Khan was overthrown. Only this time,

9:54 He was actually executed. They didn't give him a chance to abdicate or leave or go into exile or whatever. So this second coup at the end of the 70s was orchestrated by a group called the People's Democratic Party of Afghanistan, PDPA.

10:23 They basically wanted to set up more of a big government, kind of socialist type government. And in most literature, you will hear people say that it was aligned with the Soviet Union. The research that I have found does not indicate that that is correct.

10:53 That is something that the CIA wanted people to believe. And I'll tell you why in a second. The uprising was basically ordered by a guy by the name of Afizullah Amin, A-M-I-N. And what you're going to find out by reading

11:22 the non-approved sources of this, is that there were several members of this late 1970s quote-unquote revolution that had been infiltrated into a completely fake communist party that had been set up in Afghanistan by the CIA.

11:51 Basically, the people that were in charge of that had been all educated in the United States and that had basically been or in Western European countries. And most of that had been hidden away, that information. And so much like they did with the Red Brigade in Italy, they created this, quote unquote, communist entity.

12:20 Then they infiltrate it. And Kissinger, and I have read quite a bit about this, there's a lot of quotes from Kissinger that basically says that, and I just wrote a thread about it a couple of days ago, that they wanted to create for the Soviet Union their version of Vietnam. So they knew.

12:49 much like what had happened with the Brits, that there's no way the Soviet Union would be able to do anything with Afghanistan. It was just going to be quicksand. But it provided top cover for a whole bunch of different things. Number one, by destabilizing Afghanistan.

13:14 And the timing's perfect. So this is the late 1970s. And what had just happened was we lost Vietnam. So we lost control of much, not all, but much of our network for opium. It was completely disrupted by us having to leave Vietnam. And it's not that we didn't still have Laos and Cambodia.

13:40 And Thailand, we did. So there was still a network there, but it was not near the capacity that the CIA money-wise had become accustomed to. So they immediately began looking for other places, they and the international syndicate. So Kissinger and his committee of 40 under N. Brzezinski all decided.

14:09 that Afghanistan was the perfect place to go. Lots of farmland. They had under the king and then the first four or five years of the coup, they had orchestrated a huge farm capability and they were doing vineyards and all kinds of cotton and all kinds of different stuff.

14:39 Very diversified farming. But what the CIA and the Committee of 40 and everybody else saw was opium fields, poppy fields. So they orchestrated this second coup and supposedly did so by impersonating communists. So they basically said, hey, Soviet Union.

15:08 We've got this thriving communist party here and we need you to come help us because we're being overrun by all of these crazies in Afghanistan and these religious zealots. And, you know, we're atheists like you are. So we need you to come help us. And so they orchestrate the coup and then immediately the Soviet Union comes to help the new government.

15:35 But what they don't realize is they're walking into a trap. And the CIA had already made arrangements with Pakistan's ISI, and they're spending basically what amounts to, in the end, billions and billions of dollars to arm and create the buzzsaw that the Soviet Union's walking into. That was never orchestrated.

16:06 by the Soviet Union. It was a trap. And in Kissinger's own words, he said that they were going to give the Soviet Union their own Vietnam. So that's a very different version of history than I was ever taught, but it's in their own words. There's been several declassified CIA documents that basically talks about all of that. So one of the guys that

16:38 emerges out of all of this is Heck Martyr. And we're going to go to Stephen Kinzer's book about Afghanistan, and it kind of picks up right in that particular area. So, well, hold on.

17:07 I got to get my book straight. One starts. Yeah, here it is. We're going to talk about William Bloom's book first because it starts a little earlier. But both of them have some very interesting points. So in I don't even know how you say his first name. It's Gulbuddin Hekmarter. And he was head of the Islamic Party and hated.

17:39 the United States, almost as much as he hated the Russians. His followers screamed death to America, along with death to the Soviet Union. Only the Russians were not showering him with large amounts of aid like the United States did. The United States began supporting Afghan Islamic fundamentalists in 1979, despite the fact that in February of that year, some of them had kidnapped the American ambassador in the city of Kabul.

18:09 And basically that kidnapping resulted in him being shot dead. Again, there's lots of controversy about that ambassador, too, because the I want to pull this up real quick. The ambassador, many people believe, was.

18:40 killed by the CIA. And the reason for many people believing that is that if you go back, like many of these different events, not anything about it makes any sense at all. And his name is Adolph Dubs, D-U-B-S. The entire thing.

19:10 from a technical standpoint of a kidnapping makes zero sense. Where they took him, how they got him, the actual quote-unquote rescue of him, totally suspect in every way.

19:39 In order to be able to kind of jumpstart the funding into Afghanistan through Pakistan, they needed a false flag. And that's what it wasn't enough that the Soviet Union was helping the government. They wanted something that affected the United States so that the CIA could warrant sending them.

20:05 Billions of your tax dollars. So that was kind of the impetus, the assassination of the ambassador that kind of jumpstarted it all. And so, again, this is what the CIA is telling us, a pro-Soviet government, which it is not. And the Soviet Union is coming in basically.

20:33 Helping the people that are fighting against the fake government that the CIA installed. And so basically they sacrifice an ambassador. So you have after the ambassador gets assassinated, the support continued even after the Islamic fundamentalist, which.

21:03 is who's represented in, like the heck martyr guy, in Iran as well. And this is at the exact same time that those same people affiliated with each other take over the U.S. embassy in Tehran in November of that year, if you recall. So now we've got 55 American hostages in Tehran. And again,

21:31 You have to scratch your head and wonder if that was not. And I'm not saying it is. But the timing of all of this makes that now completely suspect to me. Because the CIA is trying to drum up business in funneling our tax dollars into this area. They need...

21:54 protection for what they're going to be cultivating in there. So they need to basically destroy the entire country so they can take it over militarily. Well, using their military, not ours at this point. That'll come later. And basically secure the opium fields. And so it makes no sense that we're spending billions of dollars in Afghanistan

22:22 Paying the people who next door in Iran just kidnapped a whole bunch of Americans. Unless you step back and you look at the entire thing and say that what they're trying to do is say that this fundamental, and again, they're trying to make an argument for us being involved in destabilizing the region.

22:49 The guys sitting in Afghanistan of the same religion are freedom fighters for Ronald Reagan as he's coming into office. But the guys next door are our enemy because they're holding our Americans captive in the embassy. So just so that you can keep that straight. In 1978, the...

23:15 coup that we were just talking about that brought Mohammed Diod into power kind of is, I don't even know. Let me just go through some of the background. At the time, life expectancy in Afghanistan was 40 years of age. Infant mortality was 25%.

23:49 There was malnutrition. Illiteracy was about 90%. There were almost no roads, no railways. And the people that had been in charge of Afghanistan for the very limited amount of time that it wasn't a monarchy had, like I said, they had started making farming reforms and giving people land and trying to fix some of these stuff.

24:19 All of the stuff that, like here it says, reform with a socialist bent. Their ambition was land reform with recognizing private property. Hold on. Bridget got lost again. She didn't get lost. We are completely under attack. It took me six tries to get in. I didn't mean that literally.

24:51 No, I know. Well, we do have to worry about Bridget and leave a trail of breadcrumbs every once in a while. I know. I just fixed her. I'm just explaining to everybody why I stopped. So, the land reform. Thank you. Sure.

25:15 And they had basically kind of restructured price control so that inflation didn't get out of hand. They had also started separation of church and state. They didn't want to be an Islamic republic. They were starting to build schools. They legalized trade unions. And they had emancipated women.

25:44 All of these things were going on until the CIA got involved. And the CIA began funding what morphs into the Taliban, basically religious zealots, because they don't want, again, they're trying to create an unstable government to draw the Soviet Union in.

26:14 And in the meantime, all of the reforms that the new government had been working towards, the people that were honest inside the new government, was basically thrown out the window. So let's see. William Bloom goes in and he starts talking about the amount of money.

26:47 that we had been spending in the surrounding areas and that many of the radical parts of Iran that we set up, like their famous secret police, the SAVAK, and if you recall, it was Major General Norman Schwarzkopf, General Senior.

27:18 our Desert Storm General Schwarzkopf's dad that had helped set up the SAVAK for Iran because he had been stationed there. He knew everything about Iran, very familiar with it. And so he had been hired by the U.S. government when we were supporting the Shah to go in and set up their secret police. And so in September 1975, they were prodded by Iran to

27:48 provide aid to Afghanistan. So you have Pakistan on one side saying that. And at the end of the day, what happens is all of our aid, none of it, the CIA had no control inside of Afghanistan where a single dollar of our money went. All of the money was given to ISI in Pakistan. And that was the agreement.

28:18 The only way Pakistan would agree to allow us to operate from Pakistan was to put any of our people there or whatever, was that they controlled who got the dollars inside of Afghanistan because they knew more about it and it was their next door neighbor. So, of course, the CIA acquiesced to that. And from my perspective, much of what I've learned about Pakistan is it was a captured.

28:47 um country anyway having been set up after um world war ii um much like um what uh north korea for a long period of time became not that that's what it was because it was not um as we'll find out but so the pakistan um country which is why the bcci was set up there they controlled

29:14 the overall government. And by they, I mean both the intelligence networks in the United States, but primarily UK, because you have to understand that at least half of Pakistan was under the control of India while India was under the control of the Brits. So they're very familiar with this area. And much of the part where the British had established

29:42 a stronghold and launched those different wars that they had with Afghanistan is the part that gets scooped up into the standing up of Pakistan. So again, very close to the UK over there, lots of connections there that can be made. So that kind of tells you what was going on during the time.

30:12 One of the guys that wrote a whole bunch about Afghanistan in the late 1970s was a guy by the name of Fred Holliday, H-A-L-L-I-D-A-Y. And it was his opinion, I'm going to give you a quote, probably more has changed in the countryside over the last year than in the last two centuries since the state was established, unquote. What it says is,

30:42 Peasants' debts to landlords had been canceled. The system of usury, where you were forced to borrow money for your crops, was eliminated. Hundreds of schools and medical clinics were being built. Holiday also reported that land redistribution program was underway. 200,000 rural families scheduled to receive land. So you can see that the entire country was transforming into...

31:12 The cabal, the international syndicate did not want these people to have their own land. They wanted the land so they could produce drugs. The government had also outlawed child marriage and basically the selling of women into marriage. All of that stuff had been done away with. And they also had stopped.

31:40 Requiring women to wear the headdress and all of those different things. So let's see. So the argument that this quote unquote communist government would curtail their religious freedoms never bore out. Everybody had freedom of religion. It was being used by the, let's see, even the New York Times was writing glowing.

32:13 about the transformations that were happening in Afghanistan. Two other nations which shared a long border with Afghanistan were closely allied to the U.S., one being Iran and the other one, of course, being Pakistan. So let's see.

32:39 Two months after the April 78 coup, an alliance formed by a number of conservative Islamic factions in order to transition to a guerrilla war, which is what the CIA is going to participate in and create the Soviet Union's own Vietnam. One person, let's see, this.

33:06 This while the Soviet unions were charging the CIA with arming Afghan exiles in Pakistan and the Afghanistan government was accusing Pakistan and Iran of aiding the guerrillas, even of crossing the border and taking part in the fight. Pakistan had recently taken its own sharp turn towards a Muslim orthodoxy, which the Afghan government deplored and called them fanatic.

33:36 in January, Iran had established a Muslim state after overthrowing the Shah. So you have, again, the Islamic extremists on both sides, all backed by the United States. And the one country that's not that will soon become that, and we funded it. So none of that can be by coincidence, none of it. And you can't, we're not that inept.

34:05 We don't go into Iran and they transition to a fundamentalist government while you're in charge. And then the exact same thing happens in Pakistan and then the exact same thing happens in Afghanistan. I'm sorry. You can't have it both ways. We can't be the best military in the whole world and you F everything up every single time you go in. One of those things is not true.

34:35 You guys can pick. One of them's not true. So that's kind of the overall history that I want you to understand what's going on. And then what I want to do is I want to transition into Stephen Kenzer's book and talk about what happened a little later on.

35:02 Basically, you're going to have during the conflict where Russia was in Afghanistan, the emergence of these tribal leaders. And you had the Northern Alliance, which had more good than bad. And you had the Southern Alliance, which were all bad as far as cruelty.

35:33 religious zealots, crazies. And of course, the one leader, and I don't know where his, I'll come across his name in a minute. That was the bright, I think it's, it's like, I don't know if it's pronounced Mossad. It's M-O-U-S-A-D or something like that.

36:00 He was like the bright light in the Northern Alliance, the guy that was a natural leader and was someone that would have restored hope and inspiration had he lasted through this setup. But he didn't. The CIA dressed up a quote unquote reporter and.

36:28 He walks into his facility and basically kills him. And with that, the entire Northern Alliance after that struggled. So the CIA didn't want them to win. They killed the one guy that could have made short work of the Soviets coming across the border. And again.

36:58 None of that's coincidence. You can't be that stupid. I'm sorry. That just doesn't happen. All right. So there's a guy, another guy by the name of Abdul Hogg, H-A-Q. And he was kind of a very interesting guy.

37:30 that came in with the blessing of the exiled King, Afghan King Shah. And it says that when he came in, in around 2001, he was walking into the, the, the insane asylum, because at that point, the,

37:59 The Taliban had been running the show, all funded by the CIA. And it said that the Taliban movement had been deeply despised by most Afghans and had basically wrecked nothing but havoc on the country of Afghanistan since it was created by the CIA. So it says.

38:33 Hogg, the guy wanted to try to break the power of the Taliban and was hoping that the American cruise missiles would actually do that. But he feared that if a foreign-sponsored bombing campaign pushed the Taliban from power, that it would break the nation because they would resent the foreign power.

39:02 and anybody that would then fill that void. So he felt like it needed to be done from internal to Afghanistan as far as fighting the Taliban. But this seemed like the kind of mission the United States would support. Haqq was one of the bravest and most celebrated Afghan rebel commanders. Unlike many of the others, he was secular. He was pro-Western.

39:31 even met with Margaret Thatcher at Downing Street, and he met with Ronald Reagan, who singled him out at a White House reception and basically mentioned him by name and said that we are with you. But that was only when he was one of many. Haack was an outspoken nationalist, much like the guy that was in there before. He basically said,

40:00 That when the Taliban is overthrown, if we were to align with the United States, it would be not good for Afghanistan. And here's his quote. What we want from you Americans, we want friendship with you. We cannot salute you. We cannot be your puppet. If you expect us to be your puppet, there will be no difference for us between you and the Soviets, unquote.

40:28 So again, you know, we've learned enough to know that those are death words to the CIA. So the author says the CIA had given him only modest support during the rebellion as far as fighting off the Soviets. The U.S. was not inclined to help him fight Taliban's at all. The leaders of the Taliban recognized Haqq as a potential.

40:57 enemy. In 1999, they sent a squad to assassinate him at his home in Peshawar, but the killers managed only to gun down his wife and 11-year-old son. So when Haq crossed back into Afghanistan to fight the Taliban, he was there personally and professionally. Peshawar had for centuries been the center of espionage and intrigue. It was

41:27 dangerous that a man it was so dangerous that a man could be snatched off the street and disappeared without a trace but also so safe that money changers dozed right next to their bundles of cash meaning that people wouldn't steal your cash because the people that had it were going to kill you but if you were not if you fell out of favor you could be gone in a nanosecond

41:54 It was a huge bazaar as far as trading posts, and it was also said that you could buy the world's finest heroin there. Spies were everywhere. This was especially true for Haq. The Taliban had failed to kill him, but it maintained intimate relations with the Pakistani secret police and the ISI.

42:21 Both groups followed his every move, tapped his telephone, repeatedly tried to bribe their way into his inner circle. Because Haqq was so talkative, it was probably not necessary for the Taliban or Pakistani spies to watch him this closely because he was very, very vocal. Right after he got back into Afghanistan, an article about his mission appeared in the Wall Street Journal.

42:50 i.e. the CIA. And here's what it stated. This is a quote. A key anti-Taliban commander has entered the south of Afghanistan with a force of about 100 men to try to open up ethnic Pashtun front against the regime. Mr. Hogg's plan to launch a military assault in the next few days. Because, you know, they're spying on him. They know. While among Afghanistan's most respected commanders from the period of the war with the Soviets, Mr.

43:20 Haque hasn't received support distributed in recent months by the CIA to some anti-Taliban leaders. He is among several opposition leaders in Peshawar who has criticized the U.S. bombing. While 16 days of strikes seem to have destroyed much of the Taliban's military hardware and installations, some opposition leaders say the pounding is also gradually alienating normal Afghans, unquote.

43:49 So on Saturday of that week, after the article, Hawk had met with CIA agents in Peshawar. He told them that he hoped to spark a series of defections and military revolts that would bring down the Taliban with minimum bloodshed. They were not interested because, of course, they like the setup that they have.

44:17 All they offered him in the way of help was new satellite phones, which, of course, will be used to track him. He said, yeah, I'm not interested in your phones. And two guys by the name of James and Joseph Ritchie, who were very wealthy American brothers who grew up in Afghanistan, were funding his cause.

44:47 He also suspected the CIA would have GPS tracking devices in the phones. So he didn't really need their money and he didn't want their phones. So after slipping into Afghanistan over the mountains near the Khyber Pass, Haqq began approaching village chiefs and others that he thought might help him with his anti-Taliban mission. Several agreed to join him.

45:17 among them a powerful Taliban leader that was near Jalalabad. And before the final arrangements for this defection could be made, Haqq received news that a squad of Taliban fighters was sent to capture him, was approaching. He tried to retreat towards Pakistan, but found that his escape route had been blocked. He was suddenly in danger near the valley where he was cornered.

45:46 were two helicopter landing sites that the Soviets had built a decade earlier. Using his satellite phones, he called James Ritchie, who was in the United States, and he asked him if there was something he could do for him. Ritchie immediately relayed the SOS to his brother, who in turn called Robert McFarlane. McFarlane, who was still connected,

46:18 And if you guys remember during the Iran-Contra, he was President Reagan's national security advisor. So he telephoned CIA operations in Langley and got a hold of General Wayne Downing. And basically they gave him Hogg's complete GPS coordinates for extraction.

46:45 While McFarlane waited on the phone for a reply, halfway around the world in Afghanistan, surrounded by enemies, his fate lay in the hands of the CIA, which should have been his closest ally, but which, over the course of nearly 20 years, had turned him down every single time. And so the odds were not in his favor.

47:14 the odds weren't going to be in his favor this time either. And the, the author goes back and gives a little bit of recounting of how all of this came about during the stuff that we've already talked about with regard to the previous

47:42 iterations of the different conflicts there. And also, he does want to caveat a couple of different things where in 1985, the ISI had refused to give Hawk any money that was coming to it from the United States, but he went directly to Washington and spoke to Robert McFarlane because

48:12 of his benefactors, these Ritchie brothers. And he was given access and basically said what was going on. But it changed nothing. They weren't interested in doing it without massive amounts of casualties in Afghanistan because, again, they weren't interested in saving Afghanistan. They were interested in Afghanistan as an opium poppy producer.

48:45 So, let's see. Wanted to catch back up. I have all of this stuff marked. I just have to get to my next marker. Okay, so then we get to the part where the ISI, through its funding and pushing the money to the radical Taliban,

49:22 You have in the early 1980s, you have bin Laden who shows up and he's in and out of there. Anytime one of the Taliban leaders that's less radical has a better showing and more power inside of Afghanistan, he's made to leave. And then when the ones that the CIA support, he comes back in.

49:52 So it's a very interesting turn of play. So basically, you have this hot guy says that during this time that the Afghanistan is going to turn into the center for terrorism because of what the CIA is doing.

50:22 in arming the particular radical people that they were through the ISI in Pakistan. And he also says that basically, this is probably why they really don't like him, it became a training ground and munition dump for foreign terrorists. This is a quote from him. And at the time, the world's largest poppy field. So he's calling them out.

50:53 and I wanted to say this for Bridget and Cousin It, because the part that I did not know, the guy that I was referring to earlier, the one real guy that was really good in the Northern Alliance, Ahmad Shah Massoud, M-A-S-S-O-U-D is how you spell his last name. He's actually from...

51:23 Tajikistan, which is where all of the crazies are coming at right now. So I think that's very interesting. And he was, I mean, in many ways, if you read about him, he was very inspirational. He was very well respected. And again, that's the reason why they had to take him out.

51:49 Because with him in charge of the Northern Alliance, it is very likely that the war with the Soviet Union would have lasted a quarter of the time, if not half the time. I mean, he was amazing. I had read lots of stories about people that wrote about actual engagements when I was at Air War College.

52:19 with him leading those missions. And he was nothing short of amazing in the field as a tactician. So huge respect for that guy. But of course, the CIA took him out because they weren't interested in that being a short run, at least Kissinger wasn't, engagement. Okay, so back up.

52:50 to a little more current where you have, let's see, in the Clinton administration, you had a State Department official by the name of Robin Raphael. And she says, she's quoted as saying, she hoped to facilitate U.S. business interest in Afghanistan.

53:20 and warned that if the U.S. did not deal with the Taliban on a pipeline project, economic opportunities here will be missed. An American journalist, Steve Kahl, C-O-L-L, author of the work on modern Afghan wars, wrote that Raphael seemed principally interested in corporate deal-making. I would like to say I'm shocked.

53:50 But we already know that. In the absence of alternatives, the State Department had taken up UNICAL's agenda as its own. Oh, oil company. No kidding. By the time the Taliban took power, Afghanistan had been horrifically at war for nearly 20 years. Many Afghans welcomed the help from the U.S.

54:20 Even when it added, there were excesses in many different areas. So it put up with a bunch of crap just because they were trying to get some relief from being at war. The author then says feminists in the U.S. and elsewhere protested the Taliban's treatment of women. And I don't know if you guys remember that, but it was crazy.

54:50 It was all created by the CIA because none of that existed before the CIA came in and basically destroyed everything. Several of the Mujahideen armies, CIA created by the way, had torn Afghanistan apart and they began attacking the Taliban. The country was pulled back into a civil conflict.

55:20 with the exact same warlords funded again by the CIA. During the 1980s, Heckmarder, Mossad, and Uzbek leader Dostrum, as well as a guy by the name of Ismail Khan, all using weapons from the CIA sent to them against each other. Abdul Haqq

55:49 had served as the minister of security in the Mujahideen government and had tried and failed to rule the country after one of the former presidents had resigned, but quickly became disgusted with the regime. And so then it jumps back to where I just left off in the 2001 when he comes back into the country and his plan to reassemble the...

56:21 Mossad's Northern Alliance so that he basically can do something good. But because he rejected both fundamentalism and popularism. So it says two al-Qaeda operatives arrived at, oh, this is when they were taking Mossad out.

56:52 Again, CIA created Al Qaeda and it was two Al Qaeda operatives dressed up as journalists that took him out. It says two days later in the bloodiest attack on American soil, which was 9-11, happened after they took out the Mossad guy in the Northern Alliance.

57:26 And then, of course, we flashback to Dick Cheney and Bush after 9-11. And basically, they tell Vicente Fox of Mexico that all enemies of the United States are now wanted dead or alive and that it was going to be his administration that found him.

57:57 Copper Black, C-O-F-E-R, we run across him quite often, says that we'll route him out, headed the CIA counterterrorism. Basically, you know, all the hoopla that happened after 9-11 where they're drumming up support for going back into Afghanistan. But this time.

58:22 with the full force of the military, not just through the CIA. Because again, now we are at a point where all of the poppy fields have been planted during all of this turmoil. We've basically taken all of the warlords. They're all on our payroll now through the CIA. We've taken all of the previously farmed areas away from local Afghanis. It's all in full.

58:50 poppy production, and they're all made to work for these warlords. And now we're at the point where we have to establish a more robust transportation system, and that's done via war campaigns, just like it was in Vietnam. You're going to have massive amounts of ships coming into the Afghan area. You're going to have massive amounts of airplanes coming in, and all of the outbound stuff is going to be opium.

59:20 And so we are now at the point with 9-11 that all of that stuff is going to come full circle. And we're going to go back in there, have all of the military apparatus to secure all of the poppy fields under the guise of, you know, redeeming our honor or whatever you want to call it.

59:50 Can I interject something really quick? Sure. Just that's related to what you're talking about right now. Cousinette just posted for me up in the nest something, and it is complaining that the Taliban was banning poppy fields and that the U.S. is complaining that that is causing the Afghans to be poor. Now, think about that.

1:00:17 They're complaining that the Taliban will not allow. Now, who's the bad guy there? They're complained. The U.S. is complaining that the Taliban will not allow the people to grow poppy fields. Yeah. And so we get back to Abdul Haq and, you know, him complaining about the CIA's handling of all of the stuff. And you've got.

1:00:48 As Taliban fighters close in on his little band, his American friends tried frantically to save him. The CIA might have sent a helicopter or dispatched a Predator drone, which flies without pilots, readily available to attack the approaching Taliban squad. It did neither. By mid-morning, Haq was in the hands of the Taliban fighters. They put him in a jeep and began driving him to Kabul.

1:01:15 Before they had gone very far, they saw a black land cruiser speeding towards them, flashing its lights and a signal for them to stop. Inside was the Taliban interior minister, Mullah Abdul Zaghak. R-A-Z-A-K. No, he can't go into Kabul, Razak said. We have to terminate this man. He must be executed. He ordered the jeep to follow his land cruiser.

1:01:43 The small caravan veered off the main road. This is the will of God and I accept it, Hogg said. I came here to rebuild Afghanistan, not to destroy it. Those were his last words. As he finished pronouncing them, one of the Taliban fighters walked up behind him and shot him in the back of the head. After he fell, others emptied their rifles into his body.

1:02:08 The man who might have been Afghanistan's greatest hope for peace died at the age of 43. Taliban leaders had reason to be hopeful. They had managed to withstand the first wave of American bombing, and for the most part, both of their mortal enemies, both Mossad and Haq, were dead. News commentators in the U.S. were grumbling that Bush had produced a flawed plan with half measures.

1:02:36 Well, they just didn't understand what the goal was. Bribes from the CIA enticed some warlords who supported the Taliban to change sides and motivated others to attack Taliban positions. Dostram's forces, accompanied by American advisors, took the north city of Mazar-e-Sharif. Soon afterwards, Khan regained control of Herat after arriving.

1:03:03 arranging for the defection of about 6,000 Taliban troops. These weeks of preparation and war gave bin Laden plenty of time to escape into the network of caves and tunnels, which had been fortified, and basically we know that he crossed over into Pakistan. The fight against the Taliban, in which the warlords had a direct stake, went more successful than their hunt for bin Laden because...

1:03:32 Basically, the CIA was protecting him. Taliban commanders decided that they could no longer defend Kabul and led their men out to other locations. Guerrillas from the Northern Alliance streamed in to replace them. The people were, let's see.

1:03:54 Women were joyously in the streets, out of burqas. In most wars, the capture of the enemy's capital city is considered decisive. Mullah Omar, however, had never moved to Kabul, preferring to stay in Kandahar, the main town in his native region. Kandahar fell in a loose coalition to the militia.

1:04:23 It was really, let's see, whether or not it was a victory is debatable. Americans deposed the regime that had been given al-Qaeda a protective base to operate from. But of course, that's all garbage because not only did the CIA create the al-Qaeda network.

1:04:49 They basically created the hellhole that Afghanistan had become. So that kind of takes us up to what the rest of the history we kind of know. We know that the reason why we left Afghanistan and focused on Iraq is because Afghanistan by that time was a up.

1:05:16 fully functioning source of opium poppy at that time and basically was in a caretaker status so you don't want to to do too much bombing and you do enough to maintain the chaos while you're taking all of your crops and I posted yesterday I think it was a chart that shows the gradual

1:05:43 increase in opium production in Afghanistan. It went basically from nothing when the good guys were in charge to crazy when the CIA took it over. And every year it was just like more and more. And eventually...

1:06:03 That's why in the late 70s and early 80s, you also have the explosion of coups in South America, because now they lost, you know, Cuba in the 60s, where that was kind of they were using ports to include Puerto Rico, by the way, as drug stops into the United States. But they eventually decide they're going to do land routes and go into Panama.

1:06:33 And bring them over land, which is a little bit more expensive because you have to establish a cartel network, which they did, to be your couriers up through all of the different countries. And then that's, of course, why they went in and destabilized all those countries, because it's much easier to get drugs through over land if the entire thing screwed up.

1:06:58 They've done all of this chaos and disruption, not only to install fascist dictators, but also take the resources of all of these places. And once you've destabilized them, they're kind of a free-for-all in order to traffic drugs. So it's kind of a win-win as far as they're concerned. Those people need weapons in order to fight off the CIA-sponsored terrorist.

1:07:28 They need, and of course, then we know that's why Israel went in with all of their Galil manufacturing of weapons and ammunition all over Central and South America. It's all to facilitate their profit center of drug transportation, weapons trafficking, and human trafficking.

1:07:56 And all of that happens because there was tons of people that were trafficked out of Afghanistan, both women and children, totally unaccounted for under the guise of refugees. And God knows what happened to most of them. So it's kind of Afghanistan in a nutshell. Bridget, Cousin It, did you all have anything you wanted to say about the stuff that you were posting?

1:08:39 Actually, I've been like fighting off attacks here. So it's been really bad actually today. And I'm not sure why. People that are trying to request to speak, we've been passing you the mic and we see that you're getting dumped out. And I guess there's a lot of bots here as well. So we're just trying to take care of that now as we speak.

1:09:07 So I apologize, but I'm kind of, you know, the whole thing with Afghanistan right now and the fact that they're all bitching about the poppy fields being taken away is really kind of the tell. And you're going to see that a lot in recent, in the upcoming days as these countries start to fight back against the United States and the CIA.

1:09:36 which is going on right now in Syria and Turkey. So, you know, things are going to get interesting, I guess. I absolutely agree. The sooner the better, as far as I'm concerned. Amen. So, Jeff, go ahead. So, good morning, Colonel. Good morning, Bridget, Cousin, Benjamin.

1:10:03 uh blackbird and sally and everybody good morning everybody red pill included all of you guys um it looks to be colonel that we've come to a head of all of this gladio slash intelligence turmoil and i think it's finally at a point where it's it's all coming crashing down right now within by the by the first of the year 2025 i think we're going to get some uh

1:10:33 I would like to see, you know, like Jimmy Carter, who fired a thousand CIA agents after the MK Ultra bloodletting in the late 70s that alluded to all the corrupt behavior. Carter fired a thousand of them. I think that that's minimum.

1:10:55 That's not even close what needs to happen, but we're coming up on it. I just want to know what your opinion on that is, Colonel, and what you think the best way to solve that problem would be. Put a lock on the gate at Langley and walk away. That's my solution. Benjamin, go ahead. The vague. Yeah. Yeah, I know. It has to be closed.

1:11:20 There is nothing the CIA does that we need to have them do. It needs to be closed. It is 100 percent an international syndicate paramilitary capability that works for someone other than the United States, period. They're gone. Are you saying that that organization plus others are the largest racketeers on the planet with RICO? They're the largest?

1:11:45 I'm not going to use legal terms. They're a paramilitary force that does not work for the United States government. They work for somebody else. Copy that, Colonel. Yeah, they need to be eliminated. They need to put a lock on it, say, have a nice life, whatever. Go ahead, Benjamin. Thank you, Colonel. Top of the day to everybody.

1:12:12 I was stationed in Afghanistan in 2009. I was in Kabul. And it was like the Wild West out there. We would allow Afghans to come on the base and work. They would come on the base and they would give intel and stuff. Like a lot of these warlords, they would give intel on people that they wanted to take out so they could take their own stuff.

1:12:34 We had CIA agents embedded all over Afghanistan. I worked out at the weapons depot out there, and we would outfit the Afghan National Army and the Afghan Special Forces, and CIA agents would be embedded with those units. They would come onto the yard, and you wouldn't even know they were an American. They looked and talked just like Afghans, and I talked to one of the gentlemen for a few hours, and they're all over the place.

1:13:04 When you were talking about the gentleman that could have fixed Afghanistan, Colonel, that's how it is for them to infiltrate and embed into these nations. You know, they use embassies to get our operatives into these nations and then they infiltrate out into the communities and stuff. You know, it's like a virus in a body. It's like a cancer. And so I was at CENTCOM over 9-11.

1:13:34 All of the people that, um, uh, around, you know, on the staff in and out of the theater all the time. Um, two of a guy that worked for me when I was stationed in Italy, um, called me up and wanted to go forward. Um, we had lots of requirements. Um, and he, he was, he was embedded in a soft unit, um, and went forward as a support guy.

1:14:04 He came back and almost died. He got some parasite over there. And one of the girls that worked for me, her husband was a chief medic. And he was in bed with CENTCOM's SOF unit, SOC CENT, and was over there for probably the better part of four years. He only came home maybe a couple of weeks at a time.

1:14:33 Um, and maybe once, you know, every three months for a couple of weeks. And then he was right back over there. Um, and the knowing what I know about what we all went through, um, as part of, and I, again, I was only there for about two years. Um, and, um, in charge after the war started, um, the.

1:15:04 The toll that being involved in that takes on people and what they miss as far as people's lives go, their families, people's parents died while they were deployed, all of the children's things, all of that's gone. They'll never have that back. And that's the part that...

1:15:33 gets me in all of this um that all of it was um made up all of it was orchestrated all of it was done so that an international syndicate could enrich themselves and there's dead bodies thrown across the world um billions of trillions of our wealth gone into their pockets

1:16:04 And all of it, from our perspective, was a psychological operation to get you motivated to cheer on the death of other human beings by portraying them, in many cases, as something that they were not, orchestrated by a satanic entity that

1:16:32 happens to occupy a place in our government called the CIA. NATO, the IMF, the World Bank, all of those things are cancers. And they are only there to take our wealth and give it to someone else. That's it. To take our young men and sacrifice them the best, the brightest.

1:17:02 the heroes on an altar to Satan. That's what it's all about. And there's probably not a better country in all of the studies that we've went through that's an example of that than Afghanistan. We had no national security interest in Afghanistan at all. All of the quote-unquote radical Islamist terrorists were created by the CIA.

1:17:31 other than whatever resources that they got out of it and their drug supply, which killed us again, more sacrifice, there was nothing there. And that is true in just about every place that we have Americans boots on the ground right now. Go ahead, Benjamin.

1:17:53 One last thing, you know, a lot of information is compartmentalized. So like information going down, information going up, you only know pieces of it or angles of it. You know, like one of the things that's used in war, you know, when it comes to like children and stuff, you know, where we deport all these children back here to America or other places, like children, they don't know anything. So they're young, you know, and they're able to plant seeds in these children's head.

1:18:20 grow these children up take care of them you know be you know treat them as their own child and then use those children as mercenaries to take out other people throughout the world so it's

1:18:33 Interesting that you say that because one of the things in Argentina that they were doing, so you said a whole bunch there. And I'm going to go back to your original comment about bringing people in and then ratting out other people. That's called the Phoenix program that was developed in Vietnam. It's been used in every one of these operations.

1:18:52 They it's just people being brought in that will rat out their neighbor to save their own hide. And it just gives them the ability, like you said, to go kill more people, take more shit, whatever. So one of the things that they did in Argentina when they and it was probably done everywhere. There's just actually I've read actual accounts of this happening when they would.

1:19:17 take pregnant women off the streets into these torture centers. They would hold them until they had their babies and they would sell their babies to other people in other countries. The diplomats would take their children and raise them as their own. So you're absolutely right. I have not seen that other than what we know, like in Haiti and stuff where they have stolen children.

1:19:46 It's very hard to document that because it's normally done through nonprofits like the Save the Children Garbage, where unless you can find somebody on the inside that's going to blow the whistle. But in Argentina, after the fact, many of those women who were not killed, by the way, their babies were just stolen, they were released.

1:20:07 Some were killed, but they're the ones that in legal proceedings after that. And that's the reason why the current pope has a standing charge in Argentina of crimes against humanity, because that was a very well-known fact in Argentina, in the leadership, in the Catholic Church. And he did nothing to call it out. He did nothing to stop it. So you're absolutely right, Benjamin. Zama, go ahead.

1:20:41 Hi, Colonel. Yeah, great points, great space again. I was just curious what your thoughts are and if you've looked into Synerchism at all, spelled S-Y-N-R-C-H-I-S-M. And it really is something I sort of came across when I was looking into the Circle group of elites, because I think that's very interesting.

1:21:10 a development that comes on the back of the sort of 70s. And we see the sort of evolution of the CIA and other intel agencies going from basically, you know, pseudo government run, even though despite all their rogue operations were still had a semi-com of government oversight, at least legally speaking.

1:21:37 And on the back of what was happening after the Vietnam War and the Watergate scandal, what I think we do see is this sort of something you touched on in a previous space is the privatization or essentially sort of a lot of these intel agencies turning into proxy versions of themselves or mercenary groups that basically ended up doing private intel operations for

1:22:07 not only any government, but corporations especially. And so I was just curious if that's something that you've looked into at all, the circle group that I think had a lot to do with Gladio operations in the 70s and then moving on into the 80s. And essentially what you have is the sort of the really rise of the kind of shadow governments.

1:22:34 that I think explain a lot of the type of operations we see going into the now more kind of contemporary era with War on Terror. So, yes. So in many of these authors' books, they talk about the synarchism. And basically, for those who don't know, when you read the definition of it, to me, it immediately...

1:23:02 goes back to the british round table it immediately goes back to the fabian society because basically if you take those two words it's basically together rule um so it's like a form of government that is kind of um an elite collective corporatistness or whatever um and one of them that actually

1:23:27 wrote quite extensively about it, talked about it as being made up of councils, which again, immediately I thought the British round table, because that's exactly the way that was set up. And I described it often as it being like a baby's mobile, where at the very top is the round table with the pan.

1:23:50 American guy sitting in one chair, the pan-British guy sitting in one, the pan-European guy sitting in another one, pan-Asia, blah, blah, blah. Then tethered to that table are all of the sub-elements like the CFR, the RIIA, the Committee of 300, blah, blah, blah. And then you have all of that next level, and it's government by committee or by group.

1:24:17 in essence, you end up with an elite society. And I was just looking online and they give an example of the Vichy France being part of it, the La Roche movement, all of those kind of...

1:24:43 Mexico had a big part in the way that they kind of had organized their government. In order to make something like that work, you have all of the elements of fascism in order to be able to be led basically by somebody that's directing you. You're not free to do anything. You're going to have a director or a dictator.

1:25:09 And so, yes, it's definitely if if you could come up with one term to describe what they view, it would be that it very well. And I do see that word used a lot in the description of how these people think. So thank you for bringing that up. Yeah, totally. Just a follow up. I think that's that's such a great point.

1:25:39 And I'm glad that you've also looked into it. I mean, I think because it, you know, has elements of corporatism, you know, ruled by oligarchy, basically the group dynamics. And I think it's very fascinating because when we look at, as you did in your previous space, the role of basically illicit finance, the BCCI Bank, or what we saw more recently with the Panama Papers revelation.

1:26:04 is that, you know, these kind of ideological divides that we are told through our mainstream media that we're fighting against, right, whether it was the Cold War, you know, the communist bloc and the capitalist bloc, now it's China, the next boogeyman. Well, look at where all these elites cash their money, in the same banks, right, in the same offshore entities, in the same, and they all attend the same circles.

1:26:33 And so I think there is a lot to be said about this type of sort of an analytic framework when we start to really analyze how these kind of synarchistic elites operate through a sort of illusion of divide and rule, you know, in which, you know, a world is like, oh, well, there is...

1:26:57 China. I mean, Xi Jinping had all his money cashed in one of the Panama Fonseca accounts there, right? So that tells you a lot about the head of the biggest communist country leadership, and that's right next to Bill Clinton's. And so I think we really have to... I'm continually at the search for

1:27:26 frameworks with how we have to analyze and sort of understand the types of groups that I think really are at the helm of organizing these types of groups and Gladio operations. But yeah, thanks for that. Sure. I did want to point out that one of the guys that has written about this

1:27:51 is a guy by the name of William Langer. And when you pull him up, his last name is spelled L-A-N-G-E-R. He's married to a, oh, let's see. She is a philosopher, big into kind of the arts and co-opting them for use.

1:28:19 If you go down and you look at his service during World War II, which is where I start with all these people, of course, he happens to be in the OSS. And he also was moved over into the CIA. As a matter of fact, he was the guy that originally set up the Office of National Estimates, which is the office that sets up the national intelligence estimates that.

1:28:48 basically are the way the CIA lies to the American people and coerces other government offices to do what they want because they will write the national intelligent estimate on a subject and then everything in the government structure, whether it's the SEC, the Department of Defense or whatever, is molded around that estimate. So when they write the estimates and they say,

1:29:17 that the Sandinistas are the communists, then literally everything else mobilizes around that. And so I find it very interesting that he's one of the guys that has actually written about the sinarchism.

1:29:41 His wife's kind of the philosopher of how to make it sound good. And he's the guy that's initially in the 1950s in charge of telling the president who the good guys and the bad guys are. It just all fits every single time it fits. Of course, he then goes on to Harvard and Yale. Again, just a perfect person to represent that entire concept.

1:30:11 Benjamin, go ahead. You were talking about elitist fascism or elitism. So one thing that I thought was really odd was you got all these countries, 200-something countries throughout the world, but every country is in debt. Every country has trillions of dollars in debt. America is sitting at $34 trillion. And then you take a look at these corporations. They're the ones that are doing the lobbying.

1:30:41 You know, paying for all the commercials, paying for all the politicians to get into office, paying for the politicians to talk about the things they want you to talk about. You know, it's just this big game that's been set up in America where these corporations are able to control what Americans see, think and know. Yep. I love when Benjamin talks and you can hear the little kid.

1:31:07 I know, me too. I really do. He's got birds. He's got dogs. He's got little kids. I know. Benjamin, put them on the mic. Let them say hello. I feel like we know all of them. Well, I know you don't know all of them. I got a bunch of them. Hi. Hi. Hi. Hi. Hello. That's one of my 13-year-olds, my teenagers. Here's Kai. Hi. Aw.

1:31:39 Oh, my goodness. I got them at a cinema cafe. I'm going to take them to see a kid's movie. So, yeah, I'll be jumping down and letting you ladies wake the world up. Go ahead, Bridget. Well, thank you. Thank you so much, because it really is a joy to hear you and your family. Yep. And to know that you're educating them, you know. Right. They are our future, right? Yep.

1:32:08 Exactly. And that's the thing. The military taught me how to be a good father. I spent years and years putting tools into other people's kids' tool bags, which they ended up being my kids. That's how I always looked at all people that fell under my authority. You're my child. I'm your father. I'll take care of you kind of thing. That's part of the reason why I only stayed in for 20 years.

1:32:38 near-death experiences that'll wake you up you know and it's like tomorrow isn't promised you know all i have is today so my children my kids my community you know i'm always trying to build them up and give them tools and tell them how important they are and you know explain and break down you know to their degree of knowledge you know what the world going on in the world you know i i want them to know some of the things that they're going to be facing in the future i don't want it to catch them you know

1:33:07 unawares like it did many of us god bless you are that's the reason why i only stayed 20 years right you inspire us and you inspire us to keep fighting and keep doing what we're doing yeah you didn't just stay 20 years that's a huge commitment um stellar did you want to say something um

1:33:35 Wow, you guys are getting attacked big time because I couldn't hear when I was up on top or got kicked out. Holy cow. And the more that we talk about like these Operation Gladio and these people that were, say, behind the curtain that were running everything, every country, every single one of us, every person, not only our country and the land and all that other stuff, we're just resources to them, you know, to literally, I mean.

1:34:04 well, physically rape as well, but I was going to say rape, plunder, take control, power, manipulate, you know, and, you know, like, as you said before, you know, it's not just the poppies, but it was the human trafficking and stuff. It's just overwhelming how these things have been going on for so long and without having these Gladio glasses, wouldn't see it even right now.

1:34:30 That's what's so bizarre because I go through social media, not just Twitter, but like even the ones that are controlled by, you know, the, you know, the dark hats or whatever. They're really losing their crap. And they believe that the stuff that's, you know, like whether it's the Supreme Court, you know, opinions and things and, you know, the Chevron, you know, that whole thing, you know, being unconstitutional, going against the people.

1:34:57 You know, the monetary system, how the fiat system was set up to just to take. It's, you know, it's just it's mind blowing. And then, you know, when people are, you know, people that really try. And I guess it's been happening to the people that really try to stand up and and try to do what's best for their people. For so for their children. I mean, so many wars, so many people getting killed, so many good people.

1:35:24 that truly just wanted to save the world or save their own country. We truly live. Thank you so much, you guys. I have nothing more to say. It's just overwhelming to really believe that we have literally just been a commodity to them, whether it's our children, our minds, creativity, our money, retirement, everything, our land, resources. It's mind-blowing. Thank you. I agree. Bridget, go ahead.

1:35:52 And one of the things that, you know, like I mentioned yesterday, I'm working on a UNESCO project. But to give you an idea, this wasn't the shell game with the debts, the national debts. It's not just the U.S. or a corporate deal. Those are some of the tools in their tool bag that they use. Just to give you an example, they're...

1:36:22 They put pressure on a country, just like we were talking about when I posted the link to the article that the U.S. was condemning the Taliban for keeping their people in poverty by not allowing them to harvest poppy fields and plant and sell drugs. Well, the Taliban is trying to take care of, in this particular article, it's obvious.

1:36:50 that they're trying to take care of their people. They're saying no more drugs, no more drug exportation. And so what ends up happening is they all end up putting a trade embargo around this country, which does cause poverty. And then the country ends up becoming indebted as they're trying to take care of their people. Then we'll say UNESCO comes in and says, you know what, we will trade some of your debt if you just give us this area.

1:37:20 to set apart for a natural preserve. And it just so happens they're gold mines or oil mines in those areas. And so it is a tool, just like the tools in our tool bag, that they're using to break these countries so that they can install their own government, so that they can use them. And just like Stellar...

1:37:50 eloquently put it is a commodity thing they don't care about the people they they claim to care about the people and um if you look at one of the um articles that i posted under the yesterday's space um anyway it showed um exactly how they beat us over the head with anti-semitism they beat us over the head

1:38:20 And they use a lot of these things whenever they are backed into a corner. And they use it as to deflect. And it's going to be a big tell. This is the patterns that we're teaching you guys to see. Whenever anybody starts screaming anti-Semitism, racism, just like they did with Trump, it's because we are getting close to a nerve where they're either funneling money.

1:38:51 Using it as a club to beat these countries over into submission. You know, all these different things. These are patterns that you will notice as you're seeing it. Go ahead, Sunshine. Just going to say learning all of this, you know, like Bridget said, those words and the power of the meaning behind them that they had, they don't have the same meaning over us anymore.

1:39:23 Those words don't shut me up anymore because they don't have any power over me. I can see what they're doing by calling me these words. And so I can keep it up because I'll just keep starting over. Those words have no power over me anymore. And I've been down on the bottom trolling today, letting Bridget know all the trolls down there get ripped off. So I know there's been a few glitches, but I've been down there checking.

1:39:56 So that you just kind of made my day because that's exactly what why we're here. And you can I tend to leave most non politicians or non big accounts alone as far as reading stupid shit that they.

1:40:22 But if somebody of some significant stature is going to say something either about, you know, pro-Ukrainian or whatever, I'm on it. And the more information that we can provide to you guys to do exactly the same thing so that other people can, you can provide them enough detail to let them know you know what you're talking about and just call them out.

1:40:51 I think that's kind of like the biggest compliment. And I see you guys do it. And I just, it makes me smile every single time that y'all do it. Amen. Yeah. Keep up the good work because I'm watching y'all. Go ahead, Stellar. That is true. I mean, I love seeing you use some of this information to call people out. Love it. Go ahead, Stellar. And not backing off when they call you.

1:41:19 anti-Semite or use these vulgar words. These are the words that they have created for this purpose. Yep.

1:41:30 And I love following you guys because you guys like just like you guys just go straight at it. So but that's where the clown emoji works really well. So after they start doing their little spewing, you just put clown emojis that triggers them even more. It's hilarious. And Bullish is down here and he and I have been going back and forth on and stuff like that.

1:41:55 In Zimbabwe, and I think that there's another country in Africa where if you use the U.S. dollar, it's a 10-year penalty in jail. That's how illegal it is, and that's what countries are doing. I didn't know that they were going to put you in jail for it. I just thought that they were going to say it's deemed nothing, just use it for toilet paper. But apparently, some of these countries are now making it illegal. Use it for toilet paper.

1:42:25 Yeah, they probably feel that anybody that's carrying a U.S. dollar at this point doesn't work for their country, works for the U.S. government, which is valid because if you look at what's going on in Ukraine, every time they bust one of their cabinet members, they've got a safe full of cash, euros and dollars. I mean, unbelievable stacks still in the plastic wrap.

1:42:56 So I imagine that if anybody in any of these other countries that are waking up sees that kind of thing, they're just going to lynch them and all the power to them. Well, important factor too is Zimbabwe has their money now is pegged by gold. It's a gold-backed currency.

1:43:20 US dollars are nothing. And some of these other countries are going that way as well. But they are right now on gold and their currency is stable and holding very, very well. So yeah, there's a lot of really exciting things happening. All right. I didn't see, I didn't have Zimbabwe's currency on my bingo card being better than the dollar.

1:43:44 It is. Yeah, if you watch it, that's what I was saying, especially these BRICS countries, they're tokenizing stuff. They're tokenizing their money, and they are no longer using the U.S. dollar because it is not backed by anything. So when we're purchasing oil and things like that, it's not the petrodollar. They have to convert it. They have to buy the other currency, more than likely that's gold-backed. I can't remember which they're using. It's either...

1:44:13 the Ruples. I don't know which one they're using to purchase, but they have to convert the U.S. dollar into that. Tether is no longer. So, you know, there's a huge, you know, there's a lot of stuff. This will be a very interesting month. It's going to be a hot summer. Okay. So when Nigeria prints and their money is backed by gold, we're really screwed. Go ahead, Sally.

1:44:38 Well, since we're all screwed, guys, why don't you guys go ahead and follow Colonel Towner, Bridget, and Cousin It. You know, Cousin It won't follow you back. I've been trying to get her to follow me so I can DM her people at the bottom that are troublesome accounts when I'm in here. So follow me back. I won't spam you with messages, I promise. Anyway, guys, make sure you're following them. They do an amazing job. Even when I'm in other spaces now, I can confidently...

1:45:05 talk about this without stumbling with my words, which is really nice because the knowledge is there. It's putting them into words where other people could understand them is the point. So this stuff I know, but re-listening to it is what allows it to be so fresh in your mind. And I just appreciate you guys so much, all the work that you do. You're amazing. And that's all I'm going to say today. Thank you. Go ahead, Stella.

1:45:32 And one last thing, too, with what's going on with SCOTUS and all these different things that are like the Chevron opinion, you know, a lot of these things that they put into our government are, I feel, are truly like gladio things that they were doing, setting up, you know, many, many decades in advance. And we're seeing them now being undone and specifically stating.

1:46:00 Based on the Constitution. So I love that because it does show that we're winning, you know, whether it's through, you know, their funding. You've opened my eyes in so many different ways. And God wins. Thank you. Thank you, Seller. Yeah, that's despite Amy Coney Barrett, who is probably the worst choice. I don't know how they scam Trump into her. I really don't.

1:46:28 Yeah, she has kids from Haiti. She's, you know, there's so many things that are ties that you would think that she, that maybe, you know, we don't know what these people's roles are. Maybe because of how she was, who knows? Maybe she's, I don't know. I still think that, you know, people have their roles to play. And right, you know, these last eight years, especially, have been so eye opening. And Gladio Glass, these, well, in the last eight months have been.

1:46:58 mind-blowing so yeah because it does it connects so many dots together and seeing things happen within SCOTUS

1:47:06 You know, I do feel that, you know, and then watching yesterday, I don't know if you guys watched, but like the voting machines in Georgia, I think, were another thing that was a topic. And in court, they were showing, you know, how easy it is for just someone to go in there and change it, you know, like on the sides and stuff. And they were showing all different kinds of things with the voting machines. And these are things that have to be exposed. And these are the tools that those assholes, excuse my language, used. I agree.

1:47:36 You know, I mean, obviously, Trump's first term, he didn't have, you know, all of the best advisors and and he went with what he had. So I don't think that every decision, you know, might have been the best one. But that's due to his advisors, you know, or like you said, maybe they do have some part to play.

1:48:02 I have a feeling that because a lot of stuff since he's been in office has been exposure and then having us go back to basics like our constitutions and our state constitutions, very important local action people. But it's so important, you know, and that's what I think that the disclosures are. If things would have happened like, you know, like if all of this stuff was happening in his first term, I think that we would have a lot of people really confused because they weren't quite as educated.

1:48:32 And, you know, by learning, you know, from like people like, you know, Colonel Towner, Bridget, you know, Cousin Ed, oh my gosh, Sally, you, Sunshine brings so much stuff on it too. But now it's like, now that we've got, well, for me having the glasses on, it connects so many different layers and spider webs and stuff like that, if that makes any sense, because it's like the tentacles have been all over this world.

1:49:00 And it's just insane. But seeing like these little wins that we're getting makes me believe that we are getting that much closer and understanding that, you know, it's like all this stuff is super, super good news. The fact that, you know, the Dems and the Libs and, you know, well, the globalists, you know, they're scrambling. But, you know, I know that everything is to keep us, the people, safe because the ones that are kind of showing us and helping us learn.

1:49:28 are doing it with our best interests in mind. We're not a commodity just to be blown off the planet. Does that make sense? Yes, it makes perfect sense. Go ahead, Nathan. Nathan, I can almost not hear you. I don't know if you can get the phone a little closer.

1:50:13 Yeah, we're a controversial space, so we're having a problem with that. We have a problem with that every day. I'll see you for Bluetooth, my hope. Okay. Let me know when you just butt in when you're ready. Right, because we love hearing from you guys, you know, whether it's what's on your mind, what you're seeing, what your questions are about, all of it. Colonel, I got a question. To bring this up.

1:50:48 To bring this sort of back to topic, you did mention Iran and what was going on back then at the time as pretty much being here, look at this side show rather than look at this one. And I keep coming back to the fact that, yeah, the Shah was deposed. He wound up here in the States. And all of that transpired.

1:51:20 during the Carter administration. I'm still trying to put that together. But the other question I have, the second question I have, is I'm still trying to mold this around how, yeah, we're in these war-torn zones, yet they managed to get all the drugs and arms and everything out with hardly any problem at all.

1:51:53 And I can't help but think that it takes quite a few people beyond the tape to do that. Your thoughts, please. Not really. I mean, if you if you've ever been in, for example, when I was in northern Iraq, the the ability to secure the area. Right. So we had no fly zone. You've got no one's allowed to.

1:52:23 come in and stop you from doing whatever you want because it's your aircraft that's up in the air. So if you had a few people in the logistical area on the take, and many, as I have discovered, much to my chagrin, a lot of our senior officers are actually CIA officers. They're not actually even in the military. They pretend like they're in the military. They're wearing a uniform.

1:52:51 If you've got like the guy I worked for, the two star, General Garner, and you're the chief of logistics and you could have a handful of other people that are going to look the other way. It's perfectly conceivable that whoever you have that's actually doing the.

1:53:18 Loading on to ships because we had probably no less than 12 C-130s coming into Sir Sink Airport every day, dropping supplies from Turkey, from Incirlik. And they.

1:53:36 They had shit put on them. I don't know what was in those things. But there's containers that are put on those aircraft going back. Well, what would we be shipping from a forward location back to Incirlik? I don't know. But I know there was shit loaded on it all the time. It makes perfect sense to come into theater and drop supplies off. Our food, everything came from Incirlik. What are we taking back?

1:54:05 It would have been so easy, and I don't know what that didn't happen, for them to be skimming munitions, drugs, whatever, and putting them right back. All you have to have is logistics guys right back on that aircraft. You have a few people at Incirlik. They take those Connex containers over to the other aircraft. You ship them out. You're done.

1:54:32 that does not require a huge footprint. It requires people to coordinate a very small footprint. And the same thing is true with the shipping containers out of port cities. When you have a military operation, whether it was Vietnam or Afghanistan or whatever,

1:54:56 And you've got ship after ship after ship coming, bringing all of the tanks, the helicopters, the whatever, people, supplies, missiles. So if you have control of the docks, which who runs all the docks? Oh, that's the mafia.

1:55:18 If you have control of the docks and you are moving shit, okay, for every 10 you put over here, we're going to put one over here. For every 10 you put over here, we're going to put one over here. It actually isn't that hard. And the ones you put over on the side, you just move into the black market and sell them. I have no doubt in my mind, having been at the Pentagon, that a large amount of these trillions of dollars that supposedly go unaccounted for.

1:55:48 are missing weapons. No one ever talks about that. But all of these weapon systems that are sold on the black market, that are used in, think about that. Think about from 1948-ish until yesterday. How many black marketed weapons has been used and bought?

1:56:21 Where'd they come from? Well, they came from military-grade manufacturers. And some percentage of operational, you and I paid for, weapon systems en route to a theater are confiscated by these people, misappropriated, laid out on a dock somewhere, whatever.

1:56:50 Not even counting the ones that they because I've read all about these in these books, too, where like Bulgaria was notorious for this. They would issue bills of sale that were certified by government officials. They were forged that said, you know, it's a.

1:57:15 government to government. That's the only way you can actually sell arms is government to government. They have to be approved sellers and people eligible to buy them. And so basically it's government to government sales. And so they forged all of these paperwork, just like back in the day with the Gentra Press, they had the capability of manufacturing whatever it was they needed to do Gladio operations. And so those things are manufactured all the time.

1:57:41 So when you go back and you look, that is not the preponderance of it. A lot of these weapon systems comes by, and that's the reason why the United States has had to be at war since 19 whatever, whatever we went into Korea. But even before Korea, we had all the World War II excess. So from 1945 forward, we have had a significantly large amount of munitions.

1:58:11 available for these people to carve off, even if you only did 10% of them. That's trillions of dollars of value from a Department of Defense perspective. But even if you're selling them at half price on the black market, which you will not get the actual value, but they don't need to. They didn't pay for it. We did.

1:58:41 Go ahead, Sally. Oh, I just forgot to tell you guys, I posted a picture of the Golden Crescent, which is in Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Iran. You guys could kind of get a visual of the area that Colonel was talking about today. Thank you, Sally. So having said that, we're at the magic hour of two o'clock. Does anybody have any last comments? Bridget, Cousin It? Yeah, maybe just a quick heads up. I also posted the WikiLeaks.

1:59:18 Afghanistan logs, which I think are very useful to actually understand. And one of the most underreported sides to that leak was all of the U.S. ordnance and equipment that went into the Afghan war, early Afghan war from 2004 to 2007, I think is when the documents cover.

1:59:42 And I would guess that anyone here with a military background would find that very interesting to actually analyze. The link's in the chat that gives the kind of WikiLeaks analysis and breakdown, but you can find the original docs in there too to actually get an understanding of what actually went in there or what stayed there and how much money was blown in that useless war. Yeah.

2:00:10 Thank you for doing that, because that is I've seen some of those documents. I mean, I saw some of them at the beginning when I was at CENTCOM, but it is mind boggling. Now that I know what I know, I would have never believed anybody that told me that what I just said was even possible. Just it would have never even crossed my mind. Now, knowing what I know.

2:00:39 I can honestly tell you that, and this has been kind of in the back of my mind. I listened to Catherine Austin Fitz recently talking about the, you know, trillions of dollars, not just the $2 trillion that was, you know, over 9-11, but even since then, it's been, you know, trillions after trillions after trillions that are supposedly missing from the Department of Defense. And it would make perfect sense.

2:01:08 given Operation Gladio. And I mean, if the Iran-Contra or the Sandinista-Contra conflict went on for, you know, 10, 12 years, you know how many weapons, how many missiles, how many aircraft, everything. Angola, the war. This was all black market stuff. These were not official purchases.

2:01:37 You're talking trillions of dollars worth of munitions that is required to sustain this, which, of course, is why they were selling drugs so they could use that cash to buy the weapons because they have to go through.

2:01:55 You know, you've got to pay the mafia to get them to do the dock stuff, offloading things and moving it to different ships or whatever. You've got to grease people's hands. So you've got to have cash. But we all know if you go and take inventory and you own a store, a retail store, they have shortage, right? So it's everything that gets shoplift. Somebody's been shoplifting a shitload of weapons.

2:02:24 And it happens to be our CIA and their international syndicate. But I'm now more convinced than I ever was. That's something that has been floating around for the last year in the back of my head on how you make that work. And I'm more and more convinced the more I investigate into the weapon systems and how that whole thing unfolded with the BCCI bank.

2:02:55 Khashoggi and all of those people, they all banked there. They financed all of the weapons deals. I'm just more and more convinced that that's how they got the supplies on the military side. Go ahead, Seymour. Yeah, and another side note. I mean, how else do you think that a lot of these private military ops and groups like Halliburton and the likes got armed, right? Fun fact in the Afghanistan war logs.

2:03:24 Not all the items are priced, but about maybe five-eighths of them you can find prices to some of the equipment that was going into Afghanistan. And you have one-cent rocket launchers. I kid you not. So the fact that they were itemizing one-cent rocket launchers is...

2:03:45 Hey, how do I get in on that? I want to know what it costs. Wait a minute. I want to know what it costs to get an F-15 since I was told. Yeah, exactly. Right. I know we were challenged. We were challenged. I'm still looking into the whole cannon thing, too. Totally. So there was some stuff that was going, you know, going on bargain there. Well, I can tell you, if anybody is interested in trying to figure out what the actual rocket launchers cost.

2:04:15 For every contract, there is the Defense Contracting Management System agency, I think it's DCMA, located at Fort Belvoir. Every contract that is issued for weapons procurement goes through that agency. And they have to, because they're open bid contracts, they have to publish, and that system is available for query.

2:04:45 You can actually go and look at whatever year, make, and model of any weapon system to include F-15s because they're all appropriated money as to exactly how much it costs. And Jane's, J-A-N-E, Jane's military has a site.

2:05:09 that gives you estimates based on those contracted prices. And I can damn well guarantee it ain't a penny. That's hilarious. But I'm, yeah, I had not seen the one cent one, but I'm now even more convinced. So thank you for having that. Yeah. You've been holding, you've been holding out. Why aren't you sharing this? We love catalog sales. You get two for one. You know, seriously. Right. Exactly. I'm in.

2:05:41 So, you know, what's really interesting with the weapons to the black market weapons is 90 percent of what's being posted on those foreign channels is all weapons from Ukraine. And very little is actually out there from Afghanistan. So I'm not quite sure how that fits in. But there was even photos the other day.

2:06:11 of all of the equipment still in Afghanistan. So I just find that extremely odd. And I can't put my finger on it as to why it's just really strange that all of the weapons are still there when mainstream media or mockingbird media, rather, it's all, oh, they're the biggest arms sellers and dealers and yada, yada, blah, blah.

2:06:38 And I'm not seeing it. And it's not like I have my finger on the pulse of this, but I don't see it at all. I see all of the weapons from Ukraine on the black market, but nothing from Afghanistan. So if you're the normal American and all you watch is mainstream media, if weapons on the black market show up and cause a mass casualty,

2:07:09 What's the first thing the CIA is going to feed to the mainstream media? Those all came from Afghanistan. They're not going to feed to them. But if you had not left them there, they would not have a narrative and everybody would know they came from Ukraine. So when the mass casualty event happens and.

2:07:35 It will be done with weapon systems whose pictures are front and center from having been left in Afghanistan. Then they will be able to perpetrate a mass casualty event with those exact same kind of weapons that were given to Ukraine and then resold. But they will sell it as having been come from the Taliban.

2:08:02 And having left those weapons there. Well, they did the same thing with MH17. They kept on saying, oh, it was a Buk missile that was from Russia. And it wasn't. It was a missile that was in Ukraine that the Ukrainians kept. But that's what I'm telling you. They had to stage leaving all of those weapons there. So when they use those same weapons in a mass casualty event, they will blame it on having left it there.

2:08:34 um in afghanistan through some you know no fault of their own screw up of the withdrawal as opposed to it actually being done through ukraine well i guess my my big question on the whole thing is who actually has control over those weapons because you know they're not showing up that's the thing they aren't and that's what i don't understand they are bad guys it would make sense that they're not going to sell those weapons right well that's exactly right

2:09:07 And so it's who's got control of them. Does the Taliban or, you know, I hate to use that whole white hat theory. Well, you know, I'm sorry, I do follow it, but I don't because I try to do my own research. But, you know, and I and I don't like pigeonholing terms either.

2:09:29 But somebody else is definitely orchestrating those weapons because they're just not out there. Well, maybe the Taliban doesn't trust us and they're going to keep them in case we come back. Since, you know, between the UK and us, we've been there about seven times. OK, so now that I believe that that actually makes more sense. So that's a good point. Go ahead, Zama.

2:09:55 Yeah, maybe just a bit of a side note. But did you guys watch? I think it was back in April. It was Senator Waltz, I think from Florida, when they were doing the congressional review of military spending. And he brings this bags of washers to the table. And apparently a bag of washers in the military goes for something like 10,000 bucks.

2:10:22 And, you know, it's something to be said that there hasn't been a successful audit of DoD spending, I think, in the last 10 or if not 20 years. And the amount of fraud that must be going on in there is on the back of all of these wars and ops that we've been discussing in all your spaces.

2:10:49 has to be something worse than the Herculean stables. And I just wonder if that's ever going to come to light. But, you know, you have these small snippets of, I'll see if I find the video of it, but, you know, occasionally a congressman will sort of bring up the fact that like, you know, how is it that a bag of like, you know, 20 washers.

2:11:14 you know, the little screws and nuts washers. That's the sort I'm talking about. Not like washing machines, like the, you know, the, yeah, no, the little plates to go voted for the military budget every single year he's been off in office. So crazy. Yeah. Yeah. If you don't hold them accountable by saying, yeah, no, no, we're not going to fund that anymore. It'll continue to happen, which is why it continues to happen.

2:11:38 Right. Well, I mean, does everybody remember the fifty thousand dollar hammer or something when it came to the space station back in the late 80s, early 90s? They were talking about a fifty thousand dollar hammer. So I also tell you that on the I don't remember. I think it was one of the aircraft, one of the cargo aircrafts had a.

2:12:09 So aircraft is there's specifications written in order to buy weapon systems. So if you're going to buy an aircraft and let's just say it has several of the Air Force aircraft have galleys in them, like cargo aircraft where you'd have like a coffee maker and that type of thing, because, of course, we do. But anyway, they write specifications.

2:12:37 And then they give it to the contractor to build to those written specifications. Well, someone had written the specifications for the coffee maker to withstand X amount of G force, the gravitational thrust when you're going straight up. Well, first of all, cargo aircraft don't go straight up. Even the ones that have...

2:13:07 the accelerated takeoff, don't go straight up. And so they had written a specification so extreme that the entire aircraft would have fell apart before the coffee maker would have fell apart. So a lot of times when they write these specifications,

2:13:32 The only thing a contractor can do is come back to meet those specifications. And some of them are ludicrous. They did that with the toilets back in the day. They had written some ungodly, stupid thing, and it was a mistake. But instead of the contractor coming back and going, hey, did you really mean to say this? They actually built it, costed it out to that specification, which was totally stupid. And it ended up being like $50,000.

2:14:03 Well, I'm a coffee drinker, so I can see the point. Okay. I'm just going to put it out there. All right. I take my coffee very seriously. Your butt would be on its way to the ground with your coffee cup in hand. But anyway, Stella, go ahead. My dad, when he was working in the control room, that was part of his stuff, too. And he would have to figure out the budgets and stuff. And I remember one evening, I was a little kid.

2:14:32 And he was telling me like some of the pricings that they had. And it was similar, like how they were talking about the bolts and what you talked about, the toilet and things. And whatever it was that he had to order or some sort of type of tools, I think it went into his toolbox or something like that. And I brought it out and I said, I did understand that taxes, you know, and stuff. I go, can we save the government money so we don't have to pay as much in taxes? And I handed him the tool. Yep. Zama, go ahead. Hey, no, I'm good. Thanks. Yeah. Just listening in.

2:15:09 Appreciate it. No problem. All right, guys, this has been an awesome space. We're going to kind of stay in this area and probably for the rest of the week. And then we're going to move on to Asia as we have. Have we discussed the holiday schedule this week at all? No, we will not. Yeah, we're not going to have a.

2:15:39 Oh, shoot, that's tomorrow. Yeah. Every day is a holiday for me. Yeah, we won't have one tomorrow. We'll be back on Friday. And then we're going to resume on Monday. Thank you for reminding me. Hey, guys, I had my hand up and no one called on me. So I just I'm throwing. Oh, I didn't see. I don't. Yeah.

2:16:12 Hey, so I just wanted to remind people that the other parts of the world aren't the only target. And this drug running shit is all pointed right back at the homeland. And these people have no homeland. And, you know, the Sacklers, you know, the Sackler family who did oxycodone. Oh, yeah. They're a fun family.

2:16:42 That is CIA shit, man. That is part and parcel of what they do. And though I'm not sure, but I think that might have been synthetic heroin or morphine or whatever the fuck crazy bitches were using. But, you know, they did that before with volume. And, you know, we talked yesterday about the opium wars. That's.

2:17:12 And, you know, the patterns. That's the UK, man. They love that. You know, make your people zombies. Then we can kill everybody. Right. And I'm constantly saying this all the time on Twitter. The British live on an unsustainable island.

2:17:40 Unsustainable. I lived in Turkey. Turkey is fully sustainable. They can grow everything. They have everything. They don't need anyone. And in order to export their apples to Germany, Germany's like, well, you have to buy some of our stuff. And Turkey's like, why? We don't need your crap. But that's not Britain. Britain has nothing. They have nothing.

2:18:10 So that's why they wander around all over the world stealing and killing. I don't know how to stop them, but something has to change. Well, I actually think things are changing. Bringing light to it will cause an effect. Yeah. Well, I'm so grateful that I have someone to talk to about it. Well, yeah.

2:18:40 Absolutely. And, you know, not for nothing, feel free when you find information that you want to push out there. You are more than welcome to tag any one of us and we'll be happy to send out the message as well. Oh, my God. I tag you constantly. Yeah. Some of them we get.
