When I get a book on an historical topic, I FIRST turn to the sources/bibliography to determine whether it's worth the effort to read. Annie's statement at the end about her book having "100 pages" of sources at the end will see me heading to the bookstore cash-in-hand.
You think that's impressive you should read Whitney Webb's two volume mammoth of a research/historical text I have ever encountered. It is absolutely absurd.
I would listen to more of her interviews before spending the money. There are somethings she speaks on that is sourced and just flat out incorrect. whether from the source or from her it is still false information. I am still interested in her work and will probably pick it up but I will read it with that in mind.
@@christopherharper1586 I agree with you. I read her book on Area 51 history and it's total garbage. After reading 3/4 of that dog, I trust nothing she writes.

(One glaring example: if the USSR had UFO stealth technology and were flying the saucer that crashed at Roswell, NM that entered our country undetected and remained undetected until it crashed, why were they floating spy balloons in the early 1970s and they have yet to manufacture a legitimate stealth aircraft?)

Yes most leaders of other countries are men. It's very easy to point the finger at men when men are the ones voted into power. Cleopatra didn't do much better.
POTUS are responsible for 100% of people killed by CIA Everuthing the CIA does is the responsibility of the President. Congress only authorises their budget.
First unnofficial Halo Jump in history? August 24, 1964. Performed by a CIA Operative named: John (last name classified). Operative Unit: FOX. Operative codename: Naked Snake. Target location: Tselinoyarsk, USSR. Mission name: Virtuous.
Terrorism is trying to deal with something by causing straight terror. Assassinations are the opposite, they're for when democracy is impossible and when war is unavoidable, if a leader of a country for example was clearly leading his people to March on the US im pre sure if you were in the US' shoes you would want that leader dealt with quickly and quietly. Again terrorism is causing terror on purpose to achieve a goal, assassinations are about quietly dealing with a threat in order to avoid causing terror. Literally the opposite.
Indiscriminate targeting of civilians would be terrorism. This is surgical. Though it doesn't feel right. But to outright diss it without diligence is another level of ignorance.

Telling assassination stories with smile, USA does it that's national interest and security but if Saudi or Iran does that breaking international law and proxy terrorism label put upon them. Saudi assassinating journalist was wrong but if USA agent in foreign country doing that its ok. There are multiple examples of USA doing that. Not supporting any country assassinating on foreign land but that does shows any one with power can do it 1000 times and still be called hero using soft power and social media. These rules and regulations are for all countries except USA which can force power to do the opposite while if any other country does it sanctions and threats roam around them.
It's not just the US. I'm convinced 99% of the countries are in bed with one another and have talks to allow certain things to get away with other things. Like the US either allowing 911 to get something in trade or doing it themselves for another country to get something from said country, such as, the blame on certain individuals and the take down of others. Not saying that's what I necessarily think happened, I'm just using it as an example.
I was lucky to listen to one of Annie’s books, and it really sounded like true journalism with sources and tough questions. Thank you both for this interview.
Saying "right" at the end of a sentence repeatedly makes a person sound less confident. It's a way of telling someone how they should think rather than asking for agreement.
I remember President Obama in late 2015 said, in regards to Assad in Syria, that we (the US/him) does not do "pin-prick" strikes on foreign political leaders. Syria had a crazy humanitarian warcrime situation going on back then, but I remember him saying that.
Obama campaigned on being directly opposite of crazy war mongering republican George Bush. He ended up signing more executive orders and more drone bombing deaths all across globe. He ran out all the parts nessary to keep jet fighter's in air during war-time. Used up all bombs. That is why Trump took so much criticism at first in white house. Biden has run into same thing with equipment left behind in Afghanistan. Then spending 160 billion in Ukraine. Everything is running out and will cost even possibly double due to inflation. So that 80 billion of equipment lost in Afghanistan is now over 160 billion. 160 billion plus in Ukraine is double too. That's taxes for now and next 100 year's. China refused to sell rare earth minerals that are needed to make computer chips in our guidance control systems. Strategic oil reserves gone too. Petrol dollar gone because of President Joe Biden spending Stock market crash now & bsnk failures are close to 1929 levels
Annie needs to go to Israel and talk to Mossad Agents. They have o many stories I'd love to hear about. And she's the one person we can trust to tell it like it is.
Jan Michael Vincent played a young hitman against Charles Bronson's older hitman in "The Mechanic". Spoiler alert, the young guy got the drop, but the old guy boobytrapped the getaway rig... Some games aren't worth playing if you believe you have a soul and value its positive integrity.
Wow, there’s a name I haven’t heard in a while. I man crushed (well, boy crushed) Stringfellow Hawk and his faithful steed, Airwolf when I was growing up in the 80s. Couldn’t believe the gutter he ended up in. He looked like the dead walking…well, sitting; think he lost both legs to diabetes or something alcohol related.
When someone uses “right?” too much, subconsciously their insecure about what their saying and want to make sure they can keep their audience believing what they are saying. I’d suspect that most of this is nonsense. Intelligence and SOCOM are supposed to lie, it’s part of the deal. Intentionally leading you away from the secrets they definitely don’t want to expose. Put it in a book.
What about all the people they’ve saved?!?! Like literally hundreds of warlords, war criminals, drug dealers, human traffickers, terrorists, nazis… come on, give em a break!
There is a lot of bad krav maga out there unfortunately, but I loved what I learned training with the right group. I lived with a PMC that introduced me to krav maga and I started training at one place that really disappointed me because it was a lot of complicated moves being taught by people I would not bet on in an altercation in a million years. It was just good cardio. I switched over to a smaller group run by people that had seen more than their share of real combat, and I could tell immediately that they cared that I'd be ready to take care of myself in a bad situation. 'If it's not simple, it's not krav maga,' was one of the things that was often said. Really, we spent a lot of time focusing on aggression under stress and causing damage, not just pain, so you can neutralize a threat as fast as possible to get away. Spent a decent amount of time boxing and striking, some amount of time on ground work, a good amount of time dealing with knife attacks, then some small amount of time dealing with firearms. The structure of the class was what I think was the most important though, we'd start out doing some different drills, exercises, and techniques to wear us out and get our heart rates up, then that's when we'd start sparring or dealing with being attacked. Sometimes, the instructor would secretly slip a student one of the training knives, and then kill the lights or something and that student would run around stabbing people and we were supposed to stop them. Other times, it would be just sparring with one partner after another. Sometimes, it would be you in the middle of a circle with everyone taking turns trying to take you down, put you in a choke, stab you, or pull a gun on you - but you didn't know who was next or what their plan was. The idea was that a lot technique will go out the window once you're stressed, so that's why they would try to wear us out first, then throw us in the ringer. You just have to stay aggressive and apply the combatives that have become muscle memory as best you can rather than trying to remember some choreographed techniques against a choreographed attacker

Funny how Delta is left out and the Navy Seals gets all the credit. Shows you how much Delta isn’t hungry for glory praise.
I respect people who can say "I don't know."
It's also a good dodge...
Open your parachute at 1000 feet? In the French Foreign Legion we opened our chutes at 100 feet and the Japanese never used chutes.😂😂
The japs didn’t need em 😂😂😂😂😂 but did you guys seriously pop at 100ft dude that’s insane!!! Balls of steel!!
😂
Ninja no need chute
Her covert ops book surprise kill vanish is great highly recommend
Saying "right" at the end of a sentence repeatedly makes a person sound less confident. It's a way of telling someone how they should think rather than asking for agreement.
I'm an author of many books. When explaining quite unusual things to people, I will often say 'see?'...
Right!
Couldn’t finish listening, to the hundreds of “right” …… “right”……. “right”……..
Thanks Dr. Freud! It doesn't mean that and it doesn't not mean it
Very hard to get through this clip with how distracting “RIGHT?” being said every 5 seconds was
I remember President Obama in late 2015 said, in regards to Assad in Syria, that we (the US/him) does not do "pin-prick" strikes on foreign political leaders. Syria had a crazy humanitarian warcrime situation going on back then, but I remember him saying that.
Obama campaigned on being directly opposite of crazy war mongering republican George Bush.
He ended up signing more executive orders and more drone bombing deaths all across globe.
He ran out all the parts nessary to keep jet fighter's in air during war-time. Used up all bombs.
That is why Trump took so much criticism at first in white house.
Biden has run into same thing with equipment left behind in Afghanistan. Then spending 160 billion in Ukraine.
Everything is running out and will cost even possibly double due to inflation.
So that 80 billion of equipment lost in Afghanistan is now over 160 billion.
160 billion plus in Ukraine is double too.
That's taxes for now and next 100 year's.
China refused to sell rare earth minerals that are needed to make computer chips in our guidance control systems.
Strategic oil reserves gone too.
Petrol dollar gone because of President Joe Biden spending
Stock market crash now & bsnk failures are close to 1929 levels
And when he said the word "foreign" did he give Bernie the side-eye?
@@jumpinjohnnyruss no he was alone in the Oval Office
Syria is sending us back the gmo soldiers that the US secretly sent there. The war crimes were done by Obama...
The immigration issue across Europe started there when no one fixed Syria
Great interview
Annie needs to go to Israel and talk to Mossad Agents. They have o many stories I'd love to hear about. And she's the one person we can trust to tell it like it is.
Like how they got caught doin 911... N were let go???
Jan Michael Vincent played a young hitman against Charles Bronson's older hitman in "The Mechanic". Spoiler alert, the young guy got the drop, but the old guy boobytrapped the getaway rig... Some games aren't worth playing if you believe you have a soul and value its positive integrity.
Did you spoil the ending...
Wow, there’s a name I haven’t heard in a while. I man crushed (well, boy crushed) Stringfellow Hawk and his faithful steed, Airwolf when I was growing up in the 80s.
Couldn’t believe the gutter he ended up in. He looked like the dead walking…well, sitting; think he lost both legs to diabetes or something alcohol related.
Lethal drinking game: take a shot every time she says "right"
“You know” : no I don’t fucken know , that is why you are talking ffs .
Right……Okay????? 🤣🤣
She was on Joe Rogan and her answer to EVERYTHING was "read my book" 😂
When someone uses “right?” too much, subconsciously their insecure about what their saying and want to make sure they can keep their audience believing what they are saying.
I’d suspect that most of this is nonsense. Intelligence and SOCOM are supposed to lie, it’s part of the deal. Intentionally leading you away from the secrets they definitely don’t want to expose. Put it in a book.
@@bffalcon3378 Yeah, that ish was annoying af! Dude with the 30-year in-the-makin' book gave a way way better interview!
What about the PRU, Provincial Reconnaissance Units in Vietnam, and Phoenix program.
Excellent Interview.
Fantastic interview
Lex needs to interview John Perkins. I wonder if Annie knows him.
I can listen to her talk forever
Right and Ok are like punctuation marks
No, that’s an attempt to get one to believe a lie! Never believe someone who talks like that!!!
She has a great voice for a navigation aid! Especially if you needed to turn right! Right?
Yall may have just made the list.
Her voice is mesmerising. I can go to sleep listening to her
Xcuse me? What did you say?? You woke me up.😊
IMO, one of the best Podcasts going today. For sure one of the best interviewers.
Directly and indirectly probably millions
“Health alteration” 🤣💀🖤
Drone last-package delivery 😅
Religion verification..
Excellent audio💪💪
“Right?” “Right?” “Right?” “Right?”
❄️
Right?😂
Right?? 😂
OK?? OK ??? OK ???
Riiiiiiiight..
I love this woman. Her books are truly incredible.
Her voice has resonance
Millions and counting. F CIA, FBI, IRS
Delta force also included, like Seals, Green Berats
Berets
Audible should sign her...amazing voice!
………………………………right…………….
I’m a Veteran. Form your own opinion on what she says. But just remember, sometimes they pay guys to throw Journalists like herself off the REAL path.
Slightly more then the clintons
Today? Not that many. It's still early.
Great questions Lex
Fantastic interview, I enjoy listening to both of y'all ❤👍🏼🙏🏼💐🎉
What about all the people they’ve saved?!?! Like literally hundreds of warlords, war criminals, drug dealers, human traffickers, terrorists, nazis… come on, give em a break!
so that nullifies all the lives they’ve destroyed of their own American citizens that had nothing to do with war or espionage?
And maybe you and your family and you can't even realize it
There is a lot of bad krav maga out there unfortunately, but I loved what I learned training with the right group. I lived with a PMC that introduced me to krav maga and I started training at one place that really disappointed me because it was a lot of complicated moves being taught by people I would not bet on in an altercation in a million years. It was just good cardio. I switched over to a smaller group run by people that had seen more than their share of real combat, and I could tell immediately that they cared that I'd be ready to take care of myself in a bad situation. 'If it's not simple, it's not krav maga,' was one of the things that was often said. Really, we spent a lot of time focusing on aggression under stress and causing damage, not just pain, so you can neutralize a threat as fast as possible to get away. Spent a decent amount of time boxing and striking, some amount of time on ground work, a good amount of time dealing with knife attacks, then some small amount of time dealing with firearms. The structure of the class was what I think was the most important though, we'd start out doing some different drills, exercises, and techniques to wear us out and get our heart rates up, then that's when we'd start sparring or dealing with being attacked. Sometimes, the instructor would secretly slip a student one of the training knives, and then kill the lights or something and that student would run around stabbing people and we were supposed to stop them. Other times, it would be just sparring with one partner after another. Sometimes, it would be you in the middle of a circle with everyone taking turns trying to take you down, put you in a choke, stab you, or pull a gun on you - but you didn't know who was next or what their plan was. The idea was that a lot technique will go out the window once you're stressed, so that's why they would try to wear us out first, then throw us in the ringer. You just have to stay aggressive and apply the combatives that have become muscle memory as best you can rather than trying to remember some choreographed techniques against a choreographed attacker
If you make a drinking game out of Lex's heavy sighs you'll be drunk af in 30 minutes.
Ain't nobody getting away
Dangit...now I gotta buy another book.
I have 2 of her books. Now I will buy all of them. ❤
Thanks Lex!
There was a movie that helped end the Cold War. “ The Day After”. It’s dated now but is still worth a watch.
Wasn’t that a TV movie…? I vaguely remember it as a child.
@@BrightResultsMedia yep. I think you can find it on RUclips
@@BrightResultsMedia there’s another, very similar movie that came out of the UK around the same time, also on RUclips. It’s call “Threads”
@@BrightResultsMediaya. It was required viewing in grade school, think someone here said in 83, so I’d have been 13. Think I only saw it the one time, but it made an impression.
I remember a pastor trying to hold service outside, with a handful of people there, traumatized, dying of radiation poisoning…
Nuclear war is bad for business. Great piece of propaganda, worked like a dream.
SOG part. Sent chills down my spine
Too many "rights?"
Right, Right, Right, Right and, Right! Yeah, starts to get a bit annoying, right?
@@jaykay6387 I know right? Good info but it hurts the delivery to use that so many times. It sounds like "believe me, believe me, believe me." She could fix it probably pretty easy. No big
A sign of lying or not knowing facts.
There’s assignation and then there’s assignation,what are we talking about
I serviced two MACV SOG pilots. (Owner of a business) All their citations were classified because of the locations and missions. I did get to hear some stories as I’m a Marine Vet. They were a little open to talk about it. Crazy stuff.
The president is so powerful, both sides are more and more terrified when the other side has the office.
Great interview! Also can we get her to narrate audiobooks?
You know when people try to convince you. They say “right?” All the time to make you agree. Just saying
It's a verbal tic, like "you know" and "I mean." Don't read things into it.
Why would your uncharitable hypothesis be correct? He's not hostile. He's not contesting anything she says. She doesn't need to convince him of anything.
It's also something smug people say in condescension. Like, this is obvious, right?
Right.......just saying, right?
Before watching the video my prediction is she won’t say a number, but she’ll say it’s in her book.
She's got a great asmr voice
Annie has an amazing, smokey voice. And she's absolutely a fed.
