This conversation covers Antony C. Sutton's "Wall Street Trilogy," (https://amzn.to/46lMS0O) argues that American financial interests played a significant, often overlooked, role in supporting and shaping various totalitarian regimes. It contends that Wall Street financiers, like those from J.P. Morgan and General Electric, provided financial and technical assistance to the nascent Soviet Union, Nazi Germany, and the Italian Fascist state, viewing these regimes as opportunities for economic exploitation and control rather than ideological adversaries. The text further suggests that figures such as Franklin D. Roosevelt were deeply connected to these financial elites, and that his New Deal policies mirrored "corporate socialism," which centralized economic power. It also touches upon attempts by certain American business figures to establish a fascist-style government in the United States, and highlights how information regarding these connections was sometimes suppressed.

This conversation covers the book, "The Two Edwards - How King Edward VII and Foreign Secretary Sir Edward Grey Started The First World War ," by Peter Hof, (https://amzn.to/3IFOzMO) and the extensive historical analysis argues that the First World War was primarily caused by the aggressive foreign policies of the Triple Entente powers—France, Russia, and Great Britain—rather than German expansionism. It emphasizes France's desire for Alsace-Lorraine and Russia's ambition for control over the Straits (Bosporus and Dardanelles) as fundamental drivers. The text portrays King Edward VII and Sir Edward Grey as central figures who actively orchestrated Germany's encirclement through a series of alliances and agreements, culminating in the Triple Entente, while discrediting German attempts at peaceful resolution. Furthermore, it suggests that Russia's general mobilization, with Anglo-French backing, directly precipitated the conflict, despite German efforts to mediate and contain the Austro-Serbian crisis. The source also criticizes the suppression of historical documents and challenges the prevailing narrative of German culpability for the war.
