Audio-only archive episode — no video to seek.
9 minTim and Ray discuss the documentary The New Pearl Harbor, the declassified 28 pages implicating Saudi funding in 9/11, the endless drone war in Yemen/Somalia/Sudan, and the futility of the War on Terror.
- 41:10It's no longer an argument that the U.S. government is actively covering up Saudi Arabia's role in 9/11.
- 41:53Twenty-eight declassified pages show Saudi Arabia had a larger role in the attacks, involving funding from royal family members and charities.
- 42:20The hijackers appeared to be intelligence assets of a foreign government rather than random operatives.
- 42:54Tim suggests the Saudis may have been a proxy army matched against themselves, similar to their partnership with the CIA funding Mujahideen in Afghanistan.
- 43:34The existence of a cover-up is enough to ask why there is one in the first place.
- 43:52Vice reported the U.S. is conducting about 100 military operations a day in Africa, but nobody talks about it.
- 44:45The U.S. has been bombing Yemen throughout Obama's entire presidency and into Trump's without effectively eliminating Al Qaeda there.
- 45:51Since the 2001 attacks in 2017, terrorism is now as much or more a part of American life than it was then.
- 46:10Every action taken since 9/11 has only inflamed Muslim sentiment against the United States.
- 47:03The cycle continues: drone strikes and special ops kill family members of civilians, who then seek revenge, creating new terrorists.
- 47:59The interests of elites in these countries and the interests of their populations don't seem to be aligned at all.
- 48:46America has a vast machine doing things the public is not privy to and certainly didn't sanction, involving the entire intelligence apparatus institutionalizing the use of government to leverage business.
