Professor Marandi I don’t know how you stay courteous and reasonable when this world gets more and more insane. The us uses criticism to rally national support at the same time it hits our educational system so we and our children don’t see much of the truth. I would leave my bigoted, cruel country if my family did not need the help I give them. Believe me when I say that you are a brave and articulate presenter of the truth. Thank you again, I hope you live a long, good life, loved and appreciated by many.
Declining civilizations (like the USA) are run by parasitic elites who plunder and loot the institutions and systems that make a complex society possible.
They exhaust natural resources, destroying the environment, and leaving communities to foot the bill.
They spend the treasury on weapons a thousands times their cost, and on endless, self-defeating wars. Wars that enrich the wealthy and impoverish the working class.
The civilization cycle is predictable:
Pioneers,
Conquests
Commerce,
Affluence,
Intellect,
Decadence,
Decline
Unending war and death of human empathy.
The last official act of any government is to loot their own treasury - like Trump is doing to the USA.
(Per historian Bagot Glubb who famously analyzed 11 major empires across 3,000 years and proposed that their national greatness lasts about 10 generations, or 250 years).
"Civilizations die from suicide, not by murder." ( Written by the British historian Arnold J. Toynbee in his 12-volume work "A Study of History")
IF THEY ARE THE CHOSEN DOESN'T THAT MAKE EVERYONE ELSE, INCLUDING YOU AND ME, DISPOSABLE? I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHAT OUR LEADERS PLAN IS TO PROTECT US FROM THE CHOSEN. WE'VE ALL SEEN WHAT THE CHOSEN DO IN GAZA, WEST BANK, LEBANON, SYRIA AND IRAN. NOW THE CHOSEN ARE JOINING THE MILITARY OF THE USA! WE NEED TO BE PROTECTED FROM THE CHOSEN!
great insight into what's really happening. I now believe what the spokespeople from China, Iran and Russia are saying more than thise in the West. very disillusioned, aged 69!!
Iran in effect has imposed a sanction on the United States by closing the strait. I guess what professor Marandi is saying is that further sanctions by the US will lead to Iran raising its level of sanctions as well. Quid pro quo ...
I admire Professor Marandi! He’s an intellectual, witty and a passionate man. There’s times when I get upset with hosts, but he handles it with ease, a coolness of character. Never being loud and obnoxious like some I have witnessed. A clear example: the Orange 🍊 Man. * I hope 🤞🏼 and pray 🙏🏼 that Iran can keep control of the Strait of Hormuz. It will change our midterm elections positively for the Democratic Party!
Jared Kushner gave an interview to Fox News last week and spoke about negotiations with Iran. He said the first requirement is that Iran must want to be "a real country." He means being prosperous and opening up their market to outside investment. Kushner then said Iran is "sitting on the world's fifth largest store of natural resources." He's telling us... Trump sees Iran as worth tens of trillions in untapped economic opportunity. That means the US is unlikely to retreat or surrender. Can you please bring on an expert to talk about this new math and what it means? Thanks
A small group of ultra-wealthy private individuals is holding the entire so-called Western world hostage.
This group—which I term the ruling class—controls the banks, the military-industrial complex, and the intelligence apparatus.
The ruling class's empire corresponds to the nations that participate (or are compelled to participate) in the Federal Reserve's fraudulent fiat money system.
There are clear signs that this empire is severely weakened, both militarily and economically.
The world's remaining sovereign nations are resisting the tyranny and predatory campaigns the ruling class is inflicting upon the globe.
Like a boxer on the verge of a knockout, the ruling class is lashing out wildly.
I believe the wars against Russia and Iran must be viewed in this context.
Both countries possess vast natural resources. Neither participates in the Federal Reserve's fraudulent fiat money system.
Furthermore, the empire needs an external enemy to keep its own populations in line. For—fortunately—more and more (but still far too few) Americans and Europeans are realizing that the freedom and democracy they believed they lived under are a charade.
Both wars are effectively already lost, yet the ruling class will not voluntarily accept defeat. They are well aware of the unfathomably monstrous crimes—some of global magnitude—they have committed over recent years and decades, against both foreign nations and the populations within their own empire. Consequently, they must fear retribution from almost the entire world.
The ruling class has always viewed the populations of its empire as enemies and treated them accordingly. At present, however, they likely fear external enemies more; they still have the internal enemy—primarily Americans and Europeans—relatively well under control.
For decades, the ruling class has bombarded citizens with propaganda, distractions, and manipulation.
At the same time, it has ensured that people are systematically weakened.
Most people are simply too stressed, obese, and chronically ill—or too preoccupied with conflicts with those around them—to participate in a revolution.
Moreover, those citizens who would actually be best equipped to defend themselves and their fellow human beings against tyranny are often physically and emotionally wounded following senseless wartime deployments, frequently suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder and dependence on medication.
It is not only they, however; a great many people in general are dependent on medication and drugs. A significant portion of the population in the USA and Europe takes ...

Professor Diesen, have you considered interviewing Flynt Leverett, a co-author of the book “Going to Tehran”? I looked into it based on Professor Marandi 's recommendation. It is ‘realpolitik’ and needs to be discussed in today's atmosphere.

I'm glad Iran has the LEGO videos and better PR than America and Israel now. Once no one was allowed to criticize Israel. That time has passed.
the USA has to have an evil enemy to hate but even that narrative is failing.
Civilizations end from within. It's clear that America has turned into a corrupt regime that doesn't car about it's citizens.
The USA has become a "make money through WAR" nation -- not a citizens HEALTH, HAPPINESS, and PROSPERITY nation.
1. Impoverished working class
2. Endless war thanks to Israel and a Congress that profits from the armaments industry.
3. Militarized police
4. Largest prison system in the world
5. Corporations legally exploit the vulnerable
6. Wealth transfering into the billionaire class. Vanishing middle class = only the uber wealthy and the poor (the rest of us).
7. Legislative bodies, courts, & media all hostage to corporate power.
8. Unaffordable health care, housing, medications, and education.
9. Non-living wages.
10. Student debt. Many nations have free college education but they don't pay for Israel's bombs or their health care.
11. Increasing environmental damage and degradation. Global warming.
We need people like the mayor of NYC to run the nation.
What happened to the lego videos, i have not seen any new ones lately.
Or is AI keeping me out of the loop?
I find them on YouTube.
Actual new ones?
I always value the impute by Prof Seyed M Marandi - thankyou for your perspective.

USA not Iran should be broken up into ethnic states! Thank you professors.
I have ordered the Leveretts’ book, based on your recommendation .

Outstanding interview, the pieces in the jigsaw puzzle put together with logic and reason.
No sane government will purposefully use nuclear weapons. The first to use will be destroyed, followed by earth.
