      In 1974, in my country, the Captains (rank Captain) were fighting a no win guerrilla war in Mozambique and Angola, our last colonies. They did manage to keep it secret. On the 25 of April 1974 after a specific song was played on the radio they got the go ahead ( they were a few thousands by then) to march from several places to Lisbon and, without a single shot being fired, one of the Captains asked politely to talk to the Ministers .
      He said (in other words) You're fired.
      You are not an army no matter how many guns you may have. Please leave them at home. Don't get yourselves killed and talk to the 18 Wheeler's drivers. In Nixon's time, they alone surrounded the Hill, the White House at a considerable distance, enough for Nixon to panic. Use heavy weights to surround and 1 or 2 million will march into the Houses.

      I wish I could remember the video but I saw this interview with a Japanese WWII vet who said it was the threat of a Russian war declaration that broke them, not the A bombs. Their cities had already been bombed for years. They didn't quite understand the potency of nukes at the time. The Russian land army was the biggest in the world at the end of WWII and they knew they were done when Stalin joined the Eastern front at the behest of Churchill and Truman.

      Vic Ratlhead, we didn’t need to bomb them. The Russians were mounting an invasion from the north.
      Truman bombed & killed Japanese with nuclear weapons to get them to surrender to US so WE could control Japan.
      Truman didn’t want Russia to have Japan. It was all about power. Purely sociopathic reasoning.
      I lived in Japan for 12 years. The Japanese NEVER forget what the United States did to them.
      The Russians won WWII in Europe. THEY invaded Berlin & caused the surrender of the Nazis.
      The Russians wanted to be allies with the United States, but Truman used the atomic bomb as a threat against Russian expansion & that ended the potential for a friendship.

      I thought Bernie always talked about overturning Citizens United, tightening rules and regs for Wall Street, and making them pay their fair share.
      He’s also trying to get money out of politics, cut lobbies and revolving doors out, and doesn’t take corporate PAC money.
      How can you say he bows to corporations and won’t challenge big business? He doesn’t seem as focused on it as Warren (just my opinion) but Bernie seems like as much change as we could POSSIBLY hope to get right now. If we enacted his progressive policies and the country got better for everyone, we could then explore more leftist candidates in future elections.

    • @GeorgePiazza
      @GeorgePiazza 5 років тому +1

      Oh yes. FDR reach several agreements with Stalin, the main one that the US & USSR would maintain friendly a relationship post WWII. Not that FDR or Wallace had any illusions about Stalin, but they realized:
      1) The USSR lost 20 million people fighting Fascism, more than all the other countries combined (not counting the insane Nazi holocaust against Jews, Gypsy, Romanys, etc.); th US only entered the Western Front in June 1944..
      2) Knowing about the development of the Atomic Bomb, FDR & Wallace sought to avoid an arms race -or at least not to have an antagonistic relationship with the country most likely to become the next nuclear power.
      They were also both opposed to British and French Imperialism or empire of any kind.
      The corporate Dems sought to replace Wallace as VP in 1944 despite his popularity (or perhaps because of it). FDR was too ill to put up a fight for Wallace in 44; he didn't even participate in the convention. Then the Dem leaders pulled a totally dirty trick to oust Wallace (which I won't recount here - see this: ua-cam.com/video/Za5WUumtL1I/v-deo.html ). By the time the more fair minded people realized what had happened, it was too late & Truman was nominated. Between Truman's 1st day as VP and FDR's death, they Truman & FDR) spoke twice. Twice! Truman didn't know about FDR's agreements with Stalin; nor did he know about the Bomb. Truman's mentor, the racist fascist Jimmy Byrnes was picked to be Truman's Secretary of State, and, instead of enlightening Truman on these issues, he fanned the flames of conflict by lying - telling Truman that Stalin was breaking the Malta agreement. Truman finds out about the bomb right before he meets with Stalin.. then, in the meeting, starts yelling at Stalin about breaking their agreement. Stalin looked bemusedly at Truman, wondering who this idiot was. The next day the Trinity test took place, which Truman insisted be pushed forward so he could intimidate Stalin, but Stalin already knew about the bomb.. But Stalin did reaffirm his commitment to enter the Eastern Front against the Japanese shortly after the war in the west ended. This scared the hell out of the Japanese. Not the A-Bomb (Curtis LaMey had already firebombed many Japanese cities into cinders, wiping them off the map; the A-bomb didn't seem any different). The reason the Japs surrendered was the immanent entry of the soviet Union into the Eastern Front (this is confirmed by numerous Japanese communications - their codes were compromised by that time). The reason Truman dropped the A-bombs was to keep the Soviet Union from entering the Eastern Front, for both egotistical and geo-political reasons (i.e. resource). But Truman always claimed that the reason was to save American lives by avoiding a costly direct invasion - an invasion which never would have happened. Incidentally, that lie is still taught in history classes.
      Funny that Condoleezza Rice compared W to Truman. she thought it was a compliment. (Some people are downright stupid, despite their higher education bona fides.)

    In 1968 two candidates, Robert Kennedy and Eugene McCarthy, won ALL of the ''Democratic'' primaries. Kennedy, of course, was conveniently ''eliminated,'' leaving McCarthy the legitimate heir apparent of the nomination. Yet at the convention, the party somehow declared Lyndon Jognson's Vice President and yes man, Hubert Humphrey, who hadn't ENTERED any primaries, their candidate. Then both parties in obvious collaboration announced the main issue of the campaign was ''law and order,'' while the US ''intervention'' in Vietnam continued to escalate. So much for the primaries and the Presidential election.

    One of the saddest things about the last 70+ years is that our government has entirely squandered the power and influence America had after WW2. Instead of exploiting that potential to permanently change the world for the better, as Wallace would no doubt have done, Truman and his successors opted instead for the base goal of expanding US empire by misusing our military might - a goal that history shows can only result in ephemeral success, and which will consign America to the dustbin of history, as happened with the British Empire and all the expansionist military empires that came before. 200 years from now, if we can ever drag ourselves back from the brink of climate catastrophe and endless war, people will look back on this era as (at best) an embarrassment.

      Maybe. I think as far as curriculum goes we have dumbed down, white washed and discarded much of what is needed for a effective education system. We stop teaching the foundations of critical thinking at an early age and turned them into electives if they are even offered anymore. Courses like philosophy, ethics and history are where we need to make changes and focus on instead of rudiments like Math, English and Science in early education. I'm not saying that math and science are not important by any means but we have come to focus on them to much and neglected those things which have traditionally spurred education forward throughout history.

    The petitioning to get a new party or an independent presidential candidate on the ballot could be done for 1% of what Sanders raised for one doomed primary campaign. An outsider presidential candidacy could win if it is strong enough to get pluralities in enough states to get an electoral vote majority. In my view a winning combination would be anti-interventionism, economic remedialism, and defense of the entire Bill of Rights, including the Second Amendment.

    Wallace treated the Southern sharecroppers very poorly, completely freezing out the interracial Southern Tenant Farmer’s Union as a constituency. Relief that was supposed to go to sharecroppers was instead given to their landlords to distribute on behalf of the govt. They pocketed it. This was an appeasement to the Southern ruling class white supremecist economic structure. Other than that, Wallace was great (but too hesitant, not decisive)

    I noticed that you didn't mention _anything_ about how influential Henry Wallace was _occultwise._ "Director Oliver Stone and Prof. Peter Kuznick, creators of series, "The Untold History of the United States," reserve special admiration for Franklin D. Roosevelt's Vice President, Henry A. Wallace (picture). Stone and Kuznick hold Wallace in high regard due to his opposition to Wall St. and support of labor unions, revealed during a discussion covered in a previous post. The series submits for viewer's consideration; if Wallace were still Vice President at time of Roosevelt's passing, use of the A-Bomb may have been avoided. True, Wallace seems forgotten as Stone and Kuznick mention, but there's more in man's background than revealed by series. It's time to get better acquainted with a truly pivotal occult figure! Terry Melanson summarizes, in 2001 article, "The All-Seeing Eye, The President, The Secretary and The Guru," how much occult influence Roosevelt and Wallace had on the United States:
    "In 1934, Secretary of Agriculture, soon-to-be Vice-President (1940-44) and 32nd degree freemason Henry Wallace submitted a proposal to the president to mint a coin depicting the seal's obverse and reverse. President Franklin D Roosevelt, also a 32nd degree freemason, liked the idea but opted to instead place it on the dollar bill. According to Henry Wallace, in a letter dated February 6, 1951, 'the Latin phrase Novus Ordo Seclorum impressed me as meaning the "New Deal" of the Ages'.”
    Wallace guru, Nicholas Roerich receives much of the credit, in occult circles, for placing Great Seal of the United States (picture) in everyone's hands as writer Melanson makes clear:
    "...occultists regard Roerich as the guiding hand behind the placement of America's Great Seal and the All-Seeing Eye, and matter-of-factly state that it was at Roerich's insistence that Wallace approach Roosevelt about finally printing the All-Seeing Eye on the dollar bill...both Wallace and
    Roerich were members of the Theosophical Society, this is how
    Wallace met his Master."
    Melanson concludes placing of Great Seal on dollar bill amounts to an Illuminati conspiracy:
    "These three 'wise men' - by placing the reverse of the Great Seal on the dollar bill - succeeded in announcing to the world that America is on 'the path', and is the world's best hope for the spiritual (occult) evolution of the planet. Considering how deep into the occult both Roosevelt and Wallace were already - and Wallace's connections to Theosophy - they had to of known that the most esteemed Theosophist of her time, Alice Bailey, had already declared that the Aquarian Age had begun in 1932. The whole symbology of the reverse is meant to be a mandala announcing this 'New Age of Horus.' They could not help but see the significance of this. And giving that *their fellow illuminists in the Federal Reserve had now taken control of America's currency,* it was a shoo-in."
    mediamonarchy.com/occultist-and-33rd-vice-president-henry/
    Utopian in Power: Henry Wallace, Roerich, and the Sacred Union of the East
    Occult and spirituality aspirations of Henry Wallace, Franklin Delano Roosevelt's Secretary of Agriculture and then Vice-President. FDR's. Professor Andrei Znamenski explores the reason why Wallace supported a reckless project - a 1934-1935 "botanical expedition" with an occult spin to Eastern China (Manchuria and Inner Mongolia). To a surprise of his colleagues in the Department of Agriculture, Wallace appointed as the head of this expedition Russian emigre painter and occultist Nicholas Roerich. The latter used this as an opportunity to jump-start his utopian geopolitical project of the Sacred Union of the East - an attempt to bring all Tibetan Buddhist people of Inner Asia into a vast theocratic state that would become a spiritual beacon for the humanity. Although later Wallace did everything to distance himself from Roerich, in the early 1930s the future Vice-President was part of Roerich's esoteric circle, considered the painter his guru, received an esoteric name "Galahad," and was at least partially aware of the Roerich plan. In his correspondence, Wallace referred to the Sacred Union of the East project as the "Great Plan," the "New Country" and "Kansas."

    @The Real News Network : Paul, at 15:35 Peter's talking about Henry Wallace being "shoved aside", say, so that he wouldn't be nominated for running for the presidential election, the "leaders" of the party having undemocratically made Truman the nominee. Your respond to that by saying that you, TRNN, have another video about this history and you say it's below, but it definitely doesn't show up below; neither in the video frame, nor in the text description for this video. So, what is the video you're referring to in this video? I just tried a UA-cam search (in a separate tab) using "Truman" and "The Real News Network" for search terms, and I think to have possibly found the video: " *_Undoing the New Deal: Truman’s Cold War Buries Wallace and the Left (Pt 2)_* ", December 6, 2017, ua-cam.com/video/eObLP_TLRw4/v-deo.html. If that's the one you're referring to, then the part 1 video was published on Dec. 4, 2017, " *_Undoing the New Deal: The 1944 Coup Against VP Henry Wallace_* " (22:50), ua-cam.com/video/5N60joKW174/v-deo.html. The latter one is clearly shorter by over 2 minutes more than the one of this page and the two also don't start the same way, so I guess that I'd still need you to tell us which video you're referring seconds following 15:35 in the video of this page.

    Absolutely, Americans would be three generations deep into a socialist society and China would never have become a leading destroyer of the planet's climate along with the Pentagon and the Russians. Vacationing in Cuba would have been a normal everyday experience with the family no matter how socialist they became Americans could drive from NY to Florida and get on a boat to Cuba, stay a while, come home with complete freedom of movement. Car culture would not be what it is today. The internal combustion engine would have had a short lifespan, until its replacement by a less volatile fossil fuel, a 100 miles to a gallon would have been the rule and alternative energy would have been developed 40 years ago.
    Congestion pricing for NYC would never be on the table in the Mayor's mind the traffic intolerance would have been solved way before it got to the point of causing asthma.
    Oil would have been eradicated as the main important commodity by around the time the Beatles became popular. Universal health care when Eisenhower wanted it and JFK would have lived to old age or died of Parkinson's. Coal miners in Kentucky, no more Black Lung. Vietnam would not have happened and education would have been made free for all citizens. McCarthy, Cohen, Trump, racism, sexism, class inequality would not have existed. Reagan would have died in California as a B actor. Instead of Obama as president Shirley Chisholm would have been the fist black female president in 1969. King and Malcolm would have lived to old age. The KKK would have been outlawed in the 1960's. The internet would have been already what it is now in the 1960's. Cancer, old age dementia, autism, ADHD, like polio eradicated in 1940 in the population. Pence and his evangelists would have been no more than a church and not in government. Elvis would have lived to old age as drugs and the drug war would never had happened. None of the central and South American dictators would have come into existence and all native Americans would have increased their numbers fully integrated into society instead of reservations. Finally, Einstein would have locked secret the atomic bomb formula and Oppenheimer would not have been the coordinator of the Manhattan Project, a whole generation of Japanese people would have not been incinerated by the Pentagon. Germany would never have been divided and Stalin would not have been the ultimate paranoid monster he became. NATO would never have been conceived. Henry Wallace was your man he would have made a totally different world than today. So yes, he would have spared America of all the things I mentioned.

    I appreciate the comparisons of Wallace to Bernie, but this interview is from 2016. Bernie of 2016 is not the Bernie of 2019. I supported Bernie in 2016 and even travelled to the DNC convention in the summer of 2016 to voice my opposition to what the DNC did to Bernie and us. However, at this point in time, I can't in good faith continue my support for Bernie given his willingness to support intervention in Venezuela. His recent tweets about Venezuela show that he is echoing Establishment talking points that refer to the debunked "humanitarian aid" claims. I believe Bernie has the best chance amongst the candidates, but he needs to clarify his positions on supporting or not supporting coups led by the U.S. under the Trojan horse pre-text of so-called "humanitarian aid." He needs to listen to Tulsi Gabbard in this regard or he risks losing support from former supporters like myself.
