I have researched the part of what the host says in this video before, and some of it as I watched this video. What is important to note, and why I am writing and linking it here, is that the history of unlawful wars and oppression from the West is one that run from a long time.
I believe, as I know that to happen in many instances, that the USA people is always prevented to learn about what its government does abroad, and that is not because the USA has a grip on their people, and prevent them from finding out.
As I have seen frequently, the USA people simply does not care what its government does abroad as far as it does not influence their lives in their country. Very few people in the USA has historically manifested their contrariety to wars, destruction, environmental corruption, financial attacks, and other heinous acts, as long as it did not blew back in the USA.
One thing is to protest a war that shows the USA in a bad light, another is protest a war that is still wrong despite not putting the USA in a bad light for itself.
I know that people in the USA does not understand that. They do not understand that does not matter what they think about the religion, the politics or the economics of another nation, it is not their place to interfere. The "human rights" narrative is used by the USA government to justify wars and intervention, even through the UN, which are only aimed to further the goals of their elites. And the people in the USA have no problems with that, as long as it does not put the USA in a bad light.
As long as the people in the USA believed Saddam Hussein to be a "bad man", it would not matter the atrocities done in Iraq. As long as the people believed the Vietnam Viet Congs, and the NVA, that was not a problem. And to this day, a very significant number of USA citizens believe there was a part of the Vietnam war which was not bad, and not an excess from the USA.
People also still believe that despite the inflicted suffering, for no reason at all, imposed by the USA army is not a reason for people to dislike the army active and veteran personal which "parade" around the economies and societies they destroyed.
At the present, I am positive that if the USA could attack Russia, and pull a Maduro on Putin, there would be a chunk of the USA people who would be happy and clamoring for the feat. Regardless of what the Russian people think, want or need.
However, as the video is here to go, that is not a particularity of the USA. Around the World, several governments lend their power, which they take from their people, to join the USA in this idea it is the "judge of the World". And before the USA, Europe considered itself that, as many Europeans still do.
I will not enter in details here, but search the history of some other episodes beyond Vietnam, which was to be divided in two parts and delivered to "USA and partners". Korea, find out about the history, and why is it truly that North Korea is not the friendliest country to the west. There is a reason for that. And there is a reason that people like me and my friends have wonderful time in North Korea, while some other people go there and they do not.
You can go and find in every nation that after the XX century bore "South and North", "West and East", or nations which had two names because they used to be different countries.
Like Dr Casagranda said, Europeans used to take maps and a crayon, and simply divide areas without any regard to its people and deal on the land among themselves.
I lived in Africa, and it was my first enlightening time living abroad. For 4 years I have the opportunity to work and be around people who dealt with politics and economics, and I saw that in Africa the map they actually follow has nothing to do with the map we learn in the Americas, or the Europeans seem to have. There are nations, representatives and all the structures of government that consider their nations as the people there really meant them to be, not the nations "created" by European imperialism.
After living in Africa, I needed no "whistleblower" or "declassification" to learn the wrong that was done about Egypt, Libya, or the lesser known conflicts in the Portuguese ex-colonies that had the USA and France to try and "neocolonize" these regions.
Again, the USA and the West in general do not care about the acts of their governments as long as it does not make the news and put them in a bad light, but that stacks up. The nations the West deem "terrorists" have friendly nations they do not.
That is why the Global South have been, for half a century, uniting in exerting consolidated powers into eliminating the reliance and power the USA and the West has on us. While the USA or an specific ally of it might have done something to a specific Global South nation, we as a whole count the experience of a friendly nation towards it. It does not matter for example that the last time the French had anything imperialistic to do in Brazil was centuries ago, by its acts in Africa, our people are wiry of allowing that to be possible here.
And for the whole of the Global South, that is the same feeling. Some exceptions might exist, like Argentina for example, which is allowing its government to wreck its economy by its attachment to the USA. Venezuela, hosting a massive movement that wants to deliver its own nation to the USA.
Even here in Brazil there are a significant number of stupid people who would facilitate a takeover from the USA for the ideological notion that their propaganda is real. The people here have been mocking them relentlessly, but still a dangerous group to our sovereignty.
For the most part of our population, it is incredibly stupid for it, but as I often say, we know the USA has established a bunch of demented plants in our country trying to undermine the progress and sovereignty of our nation.
The "seal of idiotic minion of Bolsonaro" went viral around here.
People should know it is not the 80s anymore. Information runs around, and we find out long before your "declassification" or your "whistleblowers" talk about the movements of your government. We know that there is no way Bolsonaro could have gotten as far as he did and elected without the help of his "USA Masters", and that went on to be confirmed as the law caught up with him, and all the plans to flee to the USA were already known to exist.
We also know that eventually, the attack on our Judiciary would follow, and other attempts on our sovereignty and democracy were to come. From time to time, the USA plants here try a bit to stir something up and place people around, relying on the authorities we know to be their pawns.
They knew there was a chance and tried to sneak up, through Bolsonaro first term, and then attack on the second. As we denied his second term, they decided to take off the gloves and stir things up more directly.
And if you go around and check with the population of the USA itself, they are all ok with that, as long as their own sense of moral grandstanding is not harmed.
The only time they start sounding some sort of contempt or discontent with their governments actions is when it falls under the "not cool" threshold, and they seem to be "not cool" on the public discourse.
The USA people in collective seems to be like those people who watch prank channels and laugh about them, no matter how dangerous or humiliating they are, but get moralizing as soon as someone is actually hurt.
And that, has a price. The price you see now. Standing alone and outside the good graces even of former unflinching allies. The ones who are seeing first the prank has gotten dangerous.
However, now, there is no turning back. As I always say, the USA has passed the point of being able to "return to old times". It is not Trump, it is not modern generation. China and Russia, much like Brazil and India, along with a group of countries in Africa, we have been working in what now is working in full since the 90s. From a long time, even before 2008, the effort has been made. Covid and 2024 were just catalysts to a process long in progress. 2026 is just another push to what was already to happen.
"Global" crisis it may be, wont be equal to everyone. And those who stand alone will feel it the most.
