Is the fierce resistance to the genocide in Gaza a sign of an imperialist system in crisis? What are the various anti-imperialist fronts aligned against the US around the world and what is China’s role? What are the characteristics and contradictions of the US-led imperialist order and in what ways are the chickens coming home to roost in the imperial core?
To discuss this and more, Rania Khalek was joined by Nina Farnia, Assistant Professor of Law at Albany Law School, a longtime activist and a scholar of Critical Race Theory, with a focus on US imperialism and its impact on domestic law. Her forthcoming book is called “Imperialism: An American Story.”

“Operation Iraqi freedom” was the saintly title for the brutal invasion of Iraq. “Operation unified protector” was the angelic name for the destruction of Libya.
“Operation enduring freedom” was the virtuous name given to the unjust invasion of Afghanistan. All in the name of "freedom and democracy".
How about operation rolling thunder
They've gave them these righteous names to do unrighteous deeds. Attracting youth to commit such horrible crimes thinking they are defending their own country while pillage the weak. It makes the name freedom dirty.
"Wars are never fought for Freedom; Wars are always fought for the Rich" Maj General Smedley-Butler (1937).
All of which signified, justly so, "operation end of the bully".

USA - a mafia criminal organization!
I've had many people tell me that the USA is not an empire because it's not like the British Empire, French Empire, Dutch Empire, Spanish Empire, etc. They are too simple-minded in their view.
Bcos the US is much smarter and has mastered the art of how to colonise a country without been seen as a coloniser.
For what purpose are their 800 military bases strategically placed around the world use for.
The American empire took over from the British after WW2. There is no difference amongst them they all are EMPIRES.
@@theislander-sj1kq all Western empires in the last 500 years are malevolent empires because they invade, colonize, suck their colonies dry of its natural resources and leave them in a state of destitution when they're given independence.
It's Not The American Empire is under Haiti... Haiti is the Empire they hide this the land belongs to the Indegious Black WHO DID NOT come from Africa and where NOT slaves but are POW... The USA is a Corporate Entity Colonized the Haitian Empire that was once Atlantian, Mayan , Olmec Empire...
Please read, "Hybrid war" by Vijay Prasad".
If you are a nation state and another nation state has an armed military base in your nation state, or you are dependent on that other nation state for military or financial support, then you are a client or vassal state in someone's empire. The genius of the American Empire is it's talent for gas lighting.

If Israel doesn’t want a 2 state solution because they don’t want to live next to Palestinians, let them move out, how can Palestinians have their land and ever be safe? This is the part don’t understand.
its their land the palestinians its not euorpea zionest jews land their not even real jews to begin with
If Israelis don't want to live next to Palestinians, they're more than welcome to go back to their original countries.
Right? You don't like that a place has Arabs living in it? You don't know how to build your houses so that they don't need air conditioning 24/7 for you to survive?
Not only is it obvious that they are settlers but it is obvious they should have settled somewhere else. They don't belong. Jews belong! *They were there all along.* But Zionists don't.
Nobody wants those psychopaths living next to them, that's why they've been kicked out of 109 countries.

Great guest, excellent discussion
Palestine situation echoes the struggle of indigenous Americans. Invaded by settlers, killed, pushed off their land & living in an essentially apartheid situation, especially in USA, they have been forced to live the two-state solution. After 500 years, it all has become normalized with "Indian reservations" & systemic racism. It would be good to see these imperialist entities dissolve as consciousness expands to embrace harmony.
Specifically English rightwing settler land grab colonies- US,
Canada, Australia, New Zealand-
majority versions, & minority versions like S Africa, Kenya, Ireland, Scotland,Wales,
Cornwall,Isle of Man, etc.
All former British colonies now countries are built on genocide. Now they whitewash their crimes with democracy, human rights and etc but they are biggest criminals of them all. The
Devil's greatest trick was convincing people he didn't exist. Same with America, Australia, Canada and list goes on.

"Optimism is a strategy for making a better future. Because unless you believe that the future can be better, it’s unlikely you will step up and take responsibility for making it so.

Nina is absolutely right about everything; including Iran's well-earned and hard-won freedom from U.S. domination.
The British began raping and pillaging Persia a good while before they enlisted the CIA to overthrow the democratically-elected Mossadeq.
I lived in Iran before and after the revolution, and remember Yasser Arafat being jubilantly welcomed in Iran not long after the Shah's departure.
Yes, Iran has learned many lessons over these past decades. It has been standing, since 1979 (notwithstanding its challenges), as a shining example of self-sufficiency won through principled, brave, and diligent work.
Nations like China and Russia also exemplify this phenomenon. China's "one hundred years of humiliation" served as its driving motivating force to get out from under the yoke of foreigners. Russia has also endured its fair share of extreme motivational adversity.
Nations and individuals alike, have much to learn and emulate here.
Iran is a beautiful country with a population of young people, I believe that it will become a thriving nation when the old regime comes to an end. It’s one of the gems of the Middle East. I’ve had many Iranian friends, many came during the end of the Shahs reign and the beginnings of the Islamic revolution. They still go back to visit family and friends, my cousin is married to an Iranian who has built a thriving business in the UK. My dad was from Yemen, my mum was Irish/ British. I would love to visit both of these countries one day.
The two state solution is really a one state solution. Israel will not survive without stealing and slave labour, just like US can not survive without imperialism. All the Israeli human capital will return to the EU, Canada, Australia and New York. Eventually, there will be only one state, the state of Palestine. This will include different religious faiths, with an Islamic majority.
The uS will be remembered as the imperial power who held it the SHORTEST
If I am not mistaken , their empire either began in the second world war , or at the end of the cold war , in which both cases it is lasting for less than a century .
Who’s taking the, down?

@@user-jg5ut9xj1e lies. Brits have not closed shop. They are cheering on every movement FROM INSIDE the US
@@user-jg5ut9xj1e The British gave it up to their cousins the US who is also a Anglo Saxon nation. Because of their racism the US will never give it up to a Yellow, Brown or Black nation.
You mentioned the importance of Islands in the Imperialist agenda. Well, one of the last remaining official colonies in the Caribbean, Puerto Rico is also on the verge of a major political turn. The Independence Movement has gained major support due to the inability and catastrophe of colonialism in the island.
I really enjoyed and learned a lot from this video.And I also encourage you to look into what's happening in PR as our struggle for independence, that has lasted more than 500 years, is gaining momentum. This will also be a devastating blow to US imperialism, given our strategic geopolitical position.
The same thing is happening in Hawaii! Soon the US colonial empire will have to give up its claims/ thefts in the Pacific and the Atlantic!

So profound choice of words. Thanks.
The decline of the American Empire is being accelerated at a tremendous rate.
It reflects, the inevitable effect of immoderate greatness.
Prosperity ripens the principle of decay.
The causes of destruction multiplies by the extent of conquest.
As soon as time or accident removes the artificial support
This stupendous fabric will yield to the pressure of its own weight.
Arguably, the decline of any empire is the result of entropy and the second law of thermodynamics (a so-called law of nature). If you grant this, then there's no stopping the US empire's decline.
The decline is also accelerated dramatically by very poor US leaders who are unable to think rationally and strategically. Their terrible economic and military policies have turned the rest of the world, and to some extent, the American masses, against the US system.
Well said!👏👏👏
Thank you
This is good stuff. I hardly find discussion similar to this on the internet.
Thank you Rania, you go from strength to strength in your reportage. Dr Nina Farnia is outstanding in her analysis, and she is so right when she states how ‘Israel does the dirty work’ for the US and the west in the eastern hemisphere, but not just there but also in South America. Ben Norton of Geopolitical Economy Report did an excellent breakdown of the role of Israel in countries like Colombia. Also we have quite a way to go in understanding the racist aspect of greater western project vis-a-vis the people of the global south, where when properly looked at in detail a picture of such evil machinations reveals itself, a repugnant systemic program of cultural, economic and social destruction of societies that’s been at work for several generations now.
Nina is Iranian 🇮🇷

@@GaryGraham-sx4pm gtfo with that AI noise.
It's a defining characteristic of despots that they believe immoral actions have no consequences.
As much as I agree with Sister Farnia about the importance of self reliance, especially as a long time member of the Black Liberation Movement, given the capitalist-created global economy, it's probably unattainable at this point in world history. We need radical INTERDEPENDENCE, based on what Farnia called 'multi-polarity', ie, "respect for the heterogeneity of the world. Our strategy: No nation, culture, country or political/economic system should dominate the world at this time.
My thing is, the Europeans came to America way back when and did the same thing to my ancestors and continue to use law and policy to keep us down….
Conflict and destabilizing regional security are the US's way of making money. The US doesn't care about indigenous or local communities in the area, the main thing is that the money that comes into the US is the main thing. Conflict is the US's reason for printing money.
By scaring other small countries of "the big bad bogey man", the U.S. is able to sell their old, decrepit weapons of war off otherwise, they'd be lumbered with more rusted hulks parked out in the Mohave Desert and Arizona. No conflict, no war, no sales.
The USA always plays its games (wars) away from home. Perhaps they will get a well deserved home game one of these days. Fair is fair.
The biggest revelation I just found out a few months ago was the role china is playing and the genious explorations that they call people to people exchange on economy. One thing I didnt even think about myself was the idea of multipolar earth for EVERY COUNTRY to equally develope on their own agenda and on their own determination and possibility it can create for everyone. If you want to have a good lasting economy than not only quantity matterts but relationships plays even more important role. I knew my country did some really crooked things but the things that got exposed is just shocking in 2024. How do you exploit with a smile than stay with handcuffs? How is that a society that can surive? If it was still in the 1800 or something way back in past than of course it was a jungle and people was judged through violence and physically because people was still evolving daily. However, today..in the world of space, satellite, millions and billions of pixels on the screen, AI, etc..does it make any sense for the world to keep on spinning while a certain group of humans are still using 1800 tactics? Can anyone still ride on a horse to go 1000 miles? absolutely not. you can try but it will not work. What I come up with is that I really dont think US really had any capability to be as strong or even capable to go as far as it was said for so long militarily. What war can the US really say that it was successful and even worth mentioning on the level it says it can go? Only war I can think of was vietnam in my opinion, and what is the story about vietnam? LIES. North vietnam won that battle. All US did was drop bombs and kill so many people but even after that they lost. One of leading general at that time said we underestimated the vietnamese and of course americans will not ever read the fails. Why is there so many chit chat about china but cant even proxie china? In my opinion if people really look into the history than one would know US been trying to take china since decades ago. North and south korea was divided and US been there eversince was not because of north korea but for china. Every single bases in that eastern region was created soley because of china. Dont get fooled people.
I wish good luck to both of you. First time YT suggested the channel. May we have peace and may no children be killed in wars. Greetings from Gallipoli Turkiye where the value of peace is welknown through hard personal experience.
Maybe Israel was once a vassal but the roles have reversed to the point that the US oligarchy is for a while US hegemonic imperialism is arbiter for zionist colonialism .The zionist agenda intersects with the settler colonialism of the anglosphere. In point of fact countries such as Italy Germany and Japan are occupied vassal states.During the second world War the Anglo allies bombed almost 2 million civilians .Keep in mind the extermination of hundreds of native nations.English imperialism started in Catholic Celtic Ireland. England is responsible for much of the slave trade drug wars Opium wars in China piracy in the Caribbean At least 100 million Indians died as a result of 9:12 British imperialism 45 trillion in theft. The Anglos invaded the Arab world nonstop.The British used poison gas against an Arab Revolt in Iraq to the barbarous Anglo invasion of Iraq to Libya.The martyrdom of the Palestinian people is authored by the anglo imperialists for at least a century.Keep in mind British Israelism actually precedes Herzl.fyi Israel helped the evangelical dictator in Guatemala massacre tens of thousands of indigenous Maya.The long standing relationship of zionist oligarchs such as the Rothschilds Sasoons in UK and the Baruchs and Adelsons in the US
The ultimate driver of imperialism is capital, which has no particular home, nationality or loyalty, and is its own false god. Imperialism is the international political apparatus of capitalism - the military and diplomatic enforcement system, that first imposed capitalism into pre-capitalist countries by conquests and invasions and gunboat diplomacy, especially through the British and French Empires, and now mostly enforces capitalism by stopping countries from escaping from capitalism via coups and crushing revolutions. Capitalism is a world system and so Imperialism is a world system too. So you can have the USA as the dominant power in Global Imperialism, and also subordinate Imperialist powers exerting influence on the USA while still being dependent on the USA. And pro-Imperial oligarchs come in all varieties.
Although many points are well taken but the current reality is that the Anglo American imperialism has wrought enormous suffering and like the zionist colonialists have never been made for their crimes.During world War 2 the anglos ruthlessly bombed Italy slaughtering almost 100000 civilians after it signed an armistice and the Italian army and partisans were fighting the German invaders Churches
railroad stations orphanages schools factories bombed The genocidal racist called targeting Italian workers as "dehousing".After the war did everything possible to prevent a leftist republic from arising including using neo fascists the mafia masons and conservative clergy and right wing terrorists operation gladio.Even tiny San Marino the world's oldest republic saw its left wing democracy overthrown in 1957 as a threat to Nato. Similarly Chile Guatemala Iran and the Ukraine had their democracies destabilized and overthrown Soi disant humanitarian interventionism Mass murder from Cambodia to Korea to Iraq to Vietnam .Yet the anglo zionist MSM is uninterested in these atrocities.Please read l'impero del male by Gianluca Ferrara.Italy's top terrorist expert called bith the regimes in the US and Israel "state terrorists " Ask yourself why there are 120 American bases in Italy as if the cossacks were ready to invade Calabria
Could it be that this is just one of the perils of white supremacy/colonialism?

That's one hell of a podcast. A lady after my own heart. She's well informed and has a clear knowledge of the world today. From Kenya, the newest American frontier.
I do t know about the other countries in Latin American but the brutality of our policies are directly linked to Israel, that trained them. The current far right in Brazil is fully supported by Israel.
Likewise in Argentina.
When you look at the geopolitical and economical events since the late 90s and early 2000s and connect all the dots, you see China being the one most significant factor in allowing this to happen.
The USA wouldn't have thought China had the capacity to bring about what's happening today in such a short time.
If they could travel back in time they would have restricted China significantly more.
They wanted to own China, they got owned instead.
They thought they could benefit off the back of China and if China got close, they could reign it in like what they did to Japanese in the 80s. Except we are not talking about just VCRs and compact cars, China also produces food and a lot of other essentials.

But they were talking about how they were trying to do something different from the usual "the bishop is the major" OH! that reminds me, throw the church in that list.

Eye-opening about Africa, as was much of this interview. For example, I had never heard of the struggle in New Caledonia- all of this interview so clear, carefully connected, so well presented- and needed information- Thank-you!
Hopefully, if Israel implodes or goes down, America won't do something drastic and foolishas it is wont to do- for example, in Ukraine. There's some insanity in the US administration, with talk and threats of nuclear.
A very thoughtful, well-informed discussion.
I’ve had this theory for some time that it’s not Biden doing the dirty work of Israel, it’s Blinken a dual citizen who has not been an honest broker when it comes to the Palestinians. Looking at the debacle of a debate I’m even more convinced that Blinken and the Zionists in the Biden administration are allowing this genocide in Gaza and the violence and theft by the illegal settlers. It’s so obvious to see that Biden’s actions are hypocritical and I’m not the only one who can see this. Many democrats that would have voted for Biden are so sickened by his actions that they will not be voting for him this time.

You give the Amer1can Empire more credit than is due to it. Ch1na is already a VASTLY more powerful nation, even Russ1a (vis a vis Amer1ca) as well. Both are militarily FAR more powerful, technologically (Ch1na unbeknownst to most, is THE world ldr in most critical high technologies), and also especially industrially (which plays into war production). Ch1na is also economically, in real terms is MASSIVELY larger than the U S A. Russ1a is now also the largest European economy, as well, to boot. Amer1ca's economy is largely artificial.
Another myth that many in the region have known to be just that is the myth is that of Israeli military prowess and ability. As a young man, I read countless accounts of how the Israeli fighter pilots were among the "best trained and effective" in the world. Pakistani fighter pilots flying under Syrian and Jordinian flags proved them wrong on many occasions. The Israelis were shot out of the sky with zero losses to the Pakistanis. Engaging poorly trained Arabs was easy for the Israelis, but they were shocked by the Pakistanis.
Exactly 💯
In the case of Uganda, you might think there is a change since it was removed from AGOA program and Uganda became a victim when it defied the LBGQ implementation in that country. Not only that, the Late Iranian President paid a visit plus the Russian Foreign minister was a guest too not so far in that country. I believe the former President of USA Obama never liked President Museveni of Uganda too because of the LGBTQ Law that was being debated still. Uganda may have been the darling of the West in the beginning but things appears too have changed
I do not think we need to be bullying anyone on resources because we screwed ours up. That stance wont change. Regardless of what happens, thats how i feel. They have there own unique cultures and ways of doing stuff. If they want different, they have here to come. Were suppose to be different. Free. You dont have to cover your face here. Forced marriage. But who are we to push that off on rest of world? Thats them. We here when your tired of that.
We dont need to. its just greed and power lust

Politics is concentrated economics. Always follow the money trail. The US Empire exists soley to enrich the ruling class billionaires.
War is politics by other means. Politics is economics by other means. Economics is war by other means. These are all different methods of accomplishing the same basic objectives of controlling power distribution.

The kind of discussion you won’t see on CNN, ABC, BBC, DW and the list goes on. I trashed my TV long time ago.
