Hey guys, I want to make a comment here about the Panama Canal. So many of you who follow me regularly have already learned how we came into possession of the Panama Canal. It was a result of a thing called the Monroe Doctrine, which basically said if it's in the Western Hemisphere, the United States, it was sold to us as...

us having a responsibility to provide security for it, much like a informal version of NATO. However, it was actually, just like NATO was actually used for Operation Gladio and for domestic terror events, the Monroe Doctrine was used as an excuse to overthrow the governments throughout the American hemisphere, the Western hemisphere.

Whenever we want it. And as a matter of fact, Panama specifically, there was a Marine by the name of Major Smedley Butler who was sent ashore to instigate a riot, make it look like a military takeover because Colombia, of which Panama belonged to at the time, wanted to be compensated for the territory.

of Panama in order to put the Panama Canal in. And the U.S. decided they didn't want to pay Colombia for the property. And they basically created a revolution, declared its independence, and the State Department immediately planted a flag and said, okay, this area doesn't belong to Colombia anymore. It's now a new state called Panama, a new country called Panama.

And they proceeded through Sullivan and Cromwell, Alan Dulles, John Foster Dulles. They had a client who owned the land where the canal was going. And they basically, it was worthless to them because they couldn't get anyone in Europe to do the canal because we were building the canal in Nicaragua at the time. Already had started it, was already paying for it with taxpayer dollars. So they created a scam to stop the Nicaraguan one.

Sullivan and Cromwell got the State Department to get behind their deal. And they bought the land from the French people that owned it for pennies on the dollar because it was worthless to them because they couldn't get the financing for the canal. And then, of course, the rest is history. We ended up with the canal. But all of that was done.
2:57
And everything after that, the overthrow of the Chilean government, Uruguay, Paraguay, because the communists were coming. The communists were coming. And, of course, they called patriots communists when they wanted their farmland back or they wanted to be paid more than 87 cents to work in a copper mine for the United States. And all of this was predicated on the Monroe Doctrine.

overthrowing governments, which the CIA did in just about every country in Latin America except for Belize and the British Guiana, if that's bad, and it is, and it's done under the Monroe Doctrine, then when Trump comes out and says that they want to use the Monroe Doctrine to take the Panama Canal back, and you...
3:50
Fucking clapping seals go, oh my God, the U.S. canal, or the American canal, that sounds so great. No, it doesn't. That shit doesn't belong to us. Do you know what would be really good? Is if we had a government that was forced to negotiate, which supposedly is Trump's big strong suit, with a foreign government that didn't include overthrowing it.
4:20
Or stealing shit. We are supposed to collectively be against that. We don't do that. We don't want our government doing that. And just because our favorite president says he's thinking about doing it, every one of you clapping seals should have your butt kicked. We don't want that being done anymore in our name. We don't want more people dying. We don't want to steal shit.

along with other people in the world, and negotiate. Surely we have something Panama wants that's better than China, which supposedly is the big threat here. So why don't we work with Panama and stop stealing shit and overthrowing governments? Just a suggestion.
