1
00:00:00,700 --> 00:00:04,000
All right. 
My premise is the US government 

2
00:00:04,000 --> 00:00:08,700
is not morally Justified either 
economically or philosophically 

3
00:00:08,900 --> 00:00:13,600
to coercively interfere in the 
Affairs of other countries. 

4
00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:18,400
I want to start by getting to 
the root cause of why we would 

5
00:00:18,400 --> 00:00:21,100
want to be in Empire. 
As Thomas Seoul says the purpose

6
00:00:21,100 --> 00:00:22,900
of being an Empire is to be left
alone. 

7
00:00:22,900 --> 00:00:27,200
However, it's not our Empire. 
We are not being a fighting 

8
00:00:27,200 --> 00:00:30,000
force, you know, I was 
expecting. 

9
00:00:30,200 --> 00:00:33,200
Opposition to interrupt me. 
I was not expecting, friendly 

10
00:00:33,200 --> 00:00:35,400
fire. 
So if you could mute the, the 

11
00:00:35,400 --> 00:00:38,800
the the woman, if you could, if 
you could mute the woman in the 

12
00:00:38,808 --> 00:00:41,600
bottom-right indefinitely, I 
would appreciate it. 

13
00:00:41,600 --> 00:00:46,300
So the reason is well, we have 
to go to war or else we will get

14
00:00:46,300 --> 00:00:48,600
attacked. 
Our citizens are at risk. 

15
00:00:48,700 --> 00:00:51,700
I want to well, first row 
refute, this by quoting Osama 

16
00:00:51,700 --> 00:00:54,400
Bin Laden's, own words. 
In tactical recommendations. 

17
00:00:54,400 --> 00:00:57,500
He says, then the fighters 
realize that the gang in the 

18
00:00:57,500 --> 00:01:01,100
White House could not see things
clearly and That their leader 

19
00:01:01,200 --> 00:01:03,500
that idiot. 
They obey was claiming that we 

20
00:01:03,500 --> 00:01:07,100
envied their lifestyle when the 
truth which this Pharaoh would 

21
00:01:07,100 --> 00:01:10,100
like to hide is that we are 
attacking them because of their 

22
00:01:10,100 --> 00:01:13,500
Injustice, toward the Muslim 
world, and especially Palestine,

23
00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:17,500
and Iraq, as well as their 
occupation of the land of the 

24
00:01:17,500 --> 00:01:22,300
two, sanctuaries clear as day. 
The reason that we are hated by 

25
00:01:22,300 --> 00:01:25,700
strangers on the other side of 
the planet is as a causal result

26
00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:27,900
of the actions. 
Our government has taken in Bin 

27
00:01:27,900 --> 00:01:29,600
Laden's message to the American 
people. 

28
00:01:29,600 --> 00:01:31,900
He says, Peace. 
Be with those who follow the 

29
00:01:31,900 --> 00:01:35,700
righteous path American people, 
my speech to you is about the 

30
00:01:35,700 --> 00:01:40,600
very best way to avoid a repeat 
of the performance in Manhattan 

31
00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:43,900
as well as the causes and 
consequences of War by way of 

32
00:01:43,900 --> 00:01:47,200
introduction. 
Let me say that security is an 

33
00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:50,700
indispensable pillar of human 
life and that free men do not 

34
00:01:50,700 --> 00:01:54,600
forfeit their security, contrary
to bushes claim that we hate 

35
00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:58,500
Freedom. 
If that were true lent then let 

36
00:01:58,500 --> 00:02:01,500
him explain to us. 
Why we Not attack Sweden. 

37
00:02:01,700 --> 00:02:04,700
For example. 
The reason we are hated by the 

38
00:02:04,700 --> 00:02:07,900
Muslim world is because of the 
actions of our government turns 

39
00:02:07,900 --> 00:02:10,400
out the same reasons. 
I hate Washington DC for 

40
00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:14,200
coercively, interfering in my 
life, as do Muslims across the 

41
00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:17,300
world in Bin Laden. 
Second letter. 

42
00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:20,300
Why are we fighting you? 
He says, we seek Allah's help. 

43
00:02:20,300 --> 00:02:22,400
We form our reply based on two. 
Questions. 

44
00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:25,600
Directed at the Americans. 
Why are we fighting an opposing?

45
00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:28,500
You too? 
What are we calling on you to do

46
00:02:28,500 --> 00:02:31,500
and what do we want from you? 
As for the first question, why 

47
00:02:31,500 --> 00:02:34,000
are we fighting an opposing you?
The answer is very simple 

48
00:02:34,100 --> 00:02:37,200
because you attacked us and 
continue to attack us. 

49
00:02:37,300 --> 00:02:40,500
You attack Us in Palestine 
Palestine, which has sunk under 

50
00:02:40,500 --> 00:02:43,300
military occupation for more 
than 80 years. 

51
00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:47,200
The British handed over 
Palestine with your help and 

52
00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:50,200
your support to the Jews who 
have occupied it for more than 

53
00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:53,200
50 years. 
He later says, you have starved 

54
00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:56,700
millions of Iraq, millions of 
Muslims in Iraq, where children 

55
00:02:56,700 --> 00:02:58,900
die every day more than 1.5 
million. 

56
00:02:58,900 --> 00:03:03,300
Iraqi children have As a result 
of your sanctions, it has 

57
00:03:03,300 --> 00:03:06,200
nothing to do with freedom. 
I think they could probably care

58
00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:09,300
less whether or not we have a 
regulatory state that they do 

59
00:03:09,300 --> 00:03:12,900
care. 
If we have bases in the Middle 

60
00:03:12,900 --> 00:03:15,000
East, you can hear the left. 
Crying. 

61
00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:19,800
Oh Putin interfered in our 
sacred democracy by having a 

62
00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:24,600
couple ads on Facebook, but if 
you stationed troops and another

63
00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:28,900
country, well, just as the 
Democrats are mad about alleged 

64
00:03:28,900 --> 00:03:32,600
Putin interference. 
The Muslims are mad at American 

65
00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:34,700
interference. 
Here's the empirical data 

66
00:03:34,700 --> 00:03:36,700
collected by Robert Pape and 
James K Feldman. 

67
00:03:36,700 --> 00:03:40,400
This is the first complete data 
set of all suicide terrorist 

68
00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:43,900
attacks around the planet 
between 1980 and 2000. 

69
00:03:43,900 --> 00:03:46,800
Nine. 
Number one on the list was not a

70
00:03:46,808 --> 00:03:50,100
Muslim organization. 
It was the Tamil Tigers. 

71
00:03:50,100 --> 00:03:53,800
A secular Hindu group carried 
out more attacks than Hamas or 

72
00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:59,700
Palestinian Islamic Jihad pij, 
combined during this period. 

73
00:03:59,700 --> 00:04:04,200
Nearly Emerge from communities 
resisting foreign occupation. 

74
00:04:04,500 --> 00:04:09,300
The research goes on to quote, 
three of the alleged Saudi 

75
00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:13,300
hijackers on 9/11. 
First one says, what is 

76
00:04:13,300 --> 00:04:14,900
happening in Muslim countries 
today? 

77
00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:17,500
Blatant occupation about which 
there is no doubt. 

78
00:04:17,500 --> 00:04:21,200
There is no Duty more obligatory
after Faith to repel him. 

79
00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:25,000
Second quote, the occupation and
deterioration of the land of the

80
00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:28,200
to sanctuaries is a plot by the 
Jews and nazarenes foremost 

81
00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:31,700
among them America May. 
Allah destroy it, which has been

82
00:04:31,700 --> 00:04:35,200
among the chief causes of every 
Misfortune surrendered by Islam.

83
00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:38,200
And to the Muslims dust 
repelling, the Americans 

84
00:04:38,400 --> 00:04:41,800
occupying, the land of the two. 
Holy sanctuaries is the most 

85
00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:45,700
obligatory of obligations. 
Finally and I say to America, if

86
00:04:45,700 --> 00:04:48,500
it wants its armies and people 
to be safe than it must withdraw

87
00:04:48,500 --> 00:04:51,300
all of its troops from foreign 
lands and depart from all 

88
00:04:51,300 --> 00:04:54,300
countries. 
If not, let it await the men, 

89
00:04:54,300 --> 00:04:57,800
prepare its coffins and dig 
Graves for its citizens. 

90
00:04:58,300 --> 00:05:01,200
The authors then go on saying, 
well, We don't get foreign 

91
00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:04,800
terrorist attacks from Iran, 
which has a population bigger 

92
00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:06,800
than Syria, Jordan, and Iraq 
combined. 

93
00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:12,400
It has nothing to do with Islam.
It has everything to do with the

94
00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:14,700
government, coercively, 
interfering in the lives of 

95
00:05:14,700 --> 00:05:17,600
others. 
Finally, what the Neo cons will 

96
00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:21,800
say is well, WWII happened there
for all future. 

97
00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:23,400
Interventions are morally, 
Justified. 

98
00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:25,400
Here's Winston. 
Churchill on the second world 

99
00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:27,400
war. 
He says, one day, President 

100
00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:30,100
Roosevelt told me that he was 
asking publicly for suggestions.

101
00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:32,400
Ian's about what the war should 
be called. 

102
00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:34,600
I said it once the unnecessary 
War. 

103
00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:38,700
There never was a war more easy 
to stop than that which has just

104
00:05:38,700 --> 00:05:40,400
wrecked. 
What was left of the world from 

105
00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:44,200
the previous struggle, human 
tragedy reaches its climax in 

106
00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:47,100
the fact that after all, the 
exertions and sacrifices of 

107
00:05:47,100 --> 00:05:49,900
hundreds of millions of people 
and the victories of the 

108
00:05:49,900 --> 00:05:53,300
righteous cause we have still 
not found peace or security and 

109
00:05:53,300 --> 00:05:55,100
that we lie in the grip of even 
worse. 

110
00:05:55,100 --> 00:05:57,900
Perils than those. 
We have surmounted. 

111
00:05:57,900 --> 00:06:01,400
It is my Earnest hope that 
pondering On the past, may give 

112
00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:05,100
guidance in days to come enable 
a new generation to repair some 

113
00:06:05,100 --> 00:06:08,500
of the errors of former years. 
So what is he talking about 

114
00:06:08,500 --> 00:06:11,400
there? 
What he's saying is that after 

115
00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:14,700
60 million dead, as a calls, a 
result of the second world war 

116
00:06:14,900 --> 00:06:19,700
and allying with Joseph Stalin. 
And the Bolshevik regime by 

117
00:06:19,700 --> 00:06:23,200
1945, the Red Army occupied all 
the great capitals of Central 

118
00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:27,000
Europe Vienna Prague Budapest, 
Berlin. 100 million. 

119
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:29,800
Christians were under the heel 
of the most barbarous tyranny in

120
00:06:30,100 --> 00:06:33,800
Sorry, the Bolshevik regime war 
is immoral because it involves 

121
00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:37,100
initiating violence against 
peaceful people and it is 

122
00:06:37,400 --> 00:06:41,500
uneconomic and not beneficial to
the host country initiating the 

123
00:06:41,508 --> 00:06:44,400
wars, because it weakens them 
more so than they, otherwise 

124
00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:48,800
would that is my argument for 
why foreign intervention is not 

125
00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:50,600
morally or economically 
Justified.
