In his international best seller, The True Story of the Bilderberg Group, which has sold 7.2 million copies in 68 countries and been translated into 48 languages, Dr. Estulin was the first man to publicly expose this shadowy cabal of some of the world’s most powerful behind the scenes manipulators. Again and again, Dr. Estulin bravely journeys to the epicenter of hell to uncover some of the most mind-boggling crimes by the men who run the world from behind the scenes.

Program 103

Darfur:  Intervention, Regime Change and the Politics of Genocide, Part Two, #103

Interview with journalist, Keith Harmon Snow. Genocide in the Darfur region of Sudan is analyzed in the context of global investment capital, natural resource exploitation, and intervention media war propaganda masquerading as humanitarian effort.  The take-over of Uganda and Rwanda by rebel forces supported by the U.S. is discussed, as well as the role of Uganda and Rwanda in the destabilization of the entire region to facilitate competing global corporate interests in the plunder of Africa's great mineral and oil wealth. The film Hotel Rwanda, publicized as based on historical fact, is revealed as fiction to cover the manipulation of internecine wars in the exploitation of Rwanda's resources by western business interests.

Behind the Numbers:  Plunder in Central Africa - Keith Harmon Snow, #99

On this week’s Global Research News Hour, we showcase a July 2019 interview with financial economist, author and historian Michael Hudson addressing the financial instruments utilized by the United States to retain its post World War II position of dominance on the world stage, and ways in which foreign economies can survive the looming implosion of the U.S. The conversation also addresses the decisions made by Canadian governments to abandon the Bank of Canada as the country’s lender of choice and the prospects of progressive political candidates and popular movements  to pull the U.S. out of its death spiral. 

Michael Hudson is a prominent U.S. critical economist and President of The Institute for the Study of Long-Term Economic Trends (ISLET), a Wall Street Financial Analyst and a Distinguished Research Professor of Economics at the University of Missouri, Kansas City.

A History of U.S. Economic Warfare, from WWII to the Present: A Conversation with Michael Hudson

Dr. Jack Rasmus discusses his newest book, "The Scourge of Neoliberalism: US Economic Policy from Reagan to Trump", with an emphasis on the practice of neoliberalism as opposed to the economic ideology which obscures its class basis; neoliberalism as the third major capitalist restructuring of the 20th century as a response to the crisis of capitalism in the 1970s; the four economic policy areas, i.e., fiscal, monetary, industrial and external, that require restructuring as capitalism evolves into a new crisis; the fallacies of neoliberalism; government policy encourages offshoring of US manufacturing; global dollar recycling into US treasuries to support the twin US deficits solution; financialization of the economy; shadow banking; deregulation and privatization; neoliberalism socially destructive.

Neoliberalism:  From Expansion to Stagnation - Dr. Jack Rasmus, #417

This Week's Global Research News Hour radio program further delves into the hazards of wireless and attempts to determine the agendas behind the roll out of the next generation of networks known as 5G. Guests include world renowned research scientist Olle Johansson and former UN staffer, whistleblower and anti 5G campaigner Claire Edwards.

5G Roll-out: A High Tech Front in the War Against Humanity?

Dr. Jack Rasmus discusses the last three chapters of his new book, “The Scourge of Neoliberalism: From Reagan to Trump” with a focus on the growing contradictions within the Neoliberal policy regime in the 21st Century; the deep technological and material forces undermining and driving the contradictions; and why the 2020s decade will require yet another, fourth restructuring of US capitalism that may fundamentally differ from the Neoliberal experience of the past four decades. Also discussed is how the material forces and Neoliberal policy are behind much of the decline and demise of US democracy form and political restructuring underway in the US since the mid 1990s.

After Trump and Neoliberalism What's Next? - Dr. Jack Rasmus, #418

Michel Chossudovsky discusses his new series of research articles on the "pandemic", including, "COVID-19 Coronavirus 'Fake' Pandemic: Timeline and Analysis" and "Coronavirus COVID-19: 'Made in China' or 'Made in America'?, among others.

On January 30th, 2020, the World Health Organization (WHO) declared a Public Health Emergency of International Concern (PHEIC) in relation to China's novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) categorized as a viral pneumonia. The virus outbreak was centred in Wuhan, a city in Eastern China with a population in excess of 11 million.

In the week prior to the January 30th decision, the WHO Emergency Committee expressed divergent views. There were visible divisions within the Committee. On January 30th, a far-reaching decision was taken without the support of expert opinion at a time when the coronavirus outbreak was limited to Mainland China.

There were 150 confirmed cases outside China when the decision was taken: 6 in the United States, 3 in Canada, 2 in the UK, etc. 150 confirmed cases over a population of 6.4 billion (world population of 7.8 billion minus Chinas 1-4 billion).

What was the risk of being infected? Virtually zero.

About the Guest
Dmitry Orlov is a Russian-American engineer and a writer on subjects related to “potential economic, ecological and political decline and collapse in the United States,” something he has called “permanent crisis”. Orlov believes collapse will be the result of huge military budgets, government deficits, an unresponsive political system and declining oil production.

Orlov was born in Leningrad (now Saint Petersburg) and moved to the United States at the age of 12. He has a BS in Computer Engineering and an MA in Applied Linguistics. He was an eyewitness to the collapse of the Soviet Union over several extended visits to his Russian homeland between the late 1980s and mid-1990s.

In 2005 and 2006 Orlov wrote a number of articles comparing the collapse-preparedness of the U.S. and the Soviet Union published on small Peak Oil related sites. Orlov’s article “Closing the ‘Collapse Gap’: the USSR was better prepared for collapse than the US” was very popular at EnergyBulletin.Net.

Orlov’s book Reinventing Collapse:The Soviet Example and American Prospects, published in 2008, further details his views. Discussing the book in 2009, in a piece in The New Yorker, Ben McGrath wrote that Orlov describes “superpower collapse soup” common to both the U.S. and the Soviet Union: “a severe shortfall in the production of crude oil, a worsening foreign-trade deficit, an oversized military budget, and crippling foreign debt.” Orlov told interviewer McGrath that in recent months financial professionals had begun to make up more of his audience, joining “back-to-the-land types,” “peak oilers,” and those sometimes derisively called “doomers”.

In his review of the book, commentator Thom Hartmann writes that Orlov holds that the Soviet Union hit a “soft crash” because of centralized planning in: housing, agriculture, and transportation left an infrastructure private citizens could co-opt so that no one had to pay rent or go homeless and people showed up for work, even when they were not paid. He writes that Orlov believes the U.S. will have a hard crash, more like Germany’s Weimar Republic of the 1920s.

Dmitry Orlov: Pandemic, Economic Collapse, & Military Conflict #145

Months of government-ordered lockdowns, the economic calamity that followed, and mass protests after the death of George Floyd – a perfect storm for what's happened now.

We're living through a 'Covid Masked Carnival' explains host Patrick Henningsen in the opening segment of his Sunday Wire Radio Show.

We're Living Through a 'COVID Masked Carnival'

Sunday Wire host Patrick Henningsen presents the week's top stories in 'The New Abnormal' during his first hour of Episode #331...

The COVID hysteria continues to overtake America and the UK, as the media and political operatives ramp-up fears of a “Second Wave” and lots of “new cases” despite the fact that the deaths have tailed off or are non existent in most countries. Universities in America have begun requiring mandatory vaccines for students to be allowed on campus. Also, the War on Statues continues across the Anglo-sphere, as social justice mobs declare a whole new raft of historical figure as “racist” ahead of the 2020 Election, and the MSM have launched a new Russian conspiracy theory this week as US spooks claim Putin paid Taliban to take out US soldiers in Afghanistan.
