one day possibly look on 19 00:01:04,879 --> 00:01:10,000 this as an act of great Injustice a 20 00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:13,040 stain on the soul of a population who 21 00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:15,280 had violently repressed innocent Bankers 22 00:01:13,040 --> 00:01:18,360 based simply on the color of their 23 00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:21,360 derivatives but I doubt it Stacy what is 24 00:01:18,360 --> 00:01:23,680 going on here Max he's referring in 25 00:01:21,360 --> 00:01:25,520 particular to aig's financial products 26 00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:28,240 unit the unit that is based here in 27 00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:30,119 London headed by casano who remember the 28 00:01:28,240 --> 00:01:32,799 whole bank went bust the ins insurance 29 00:01:30,119 --> 00:01:34,320 company went bust $885

that when Congress was 33 00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:44,320 against paying bonuses to this very unit 34 00:01:41,799 --> 00:01:47,759 here that destroyed the insurance 35 00:01:44,320 --> 00:01:51,240 company well that was equivalent to the 36 00:01:47,759 --> 00:01:54,799 lynching faced by African-Americans in 37 00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:58,039 the South AIG CEO Robert Ben MOS 38 00:01:54,799 --> 00:01:59,600 Compares bonus criticism to lynch mobs 39 00:01:58,039 --> 00:02:00,399 this is from Matt taiii and of course he 40 00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:02,719 used 41 00:02:00,399 --> 00:02:05,119 his unique way of describing the 42 00:02:02,719 --> 00:02:06,799 situation he says AIG has a lengthy 43 00:02:05,119 --> 00:02:09,840 history of producing some of the biggest 44 00:02:06,799 --> 00:02:11,840 tools on Wall Street former CEO Morris 45 00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:13,760 Hank Greenberg was considered one of the 46 00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:15,680 world's preeminent Unapologetic 47 00:02:13,760 --> 00:02:17,080 narcissists even before he sued the 48 00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:19,480 government for providing an 49 00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:21,680 insufficiently generous bailout Joe 50 00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:23,920 casano former Chief of aig's financial 51 00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:26,239 products division was another first he 52 00:02:23,920 --> 00:02:28,040 arrogantly blew off the accountants who 53 00:02:26,239 --> 00:02:30,200 warned him his portfolio of hundreds of 54 00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:32,160 billions and uncollateralized bets might 55 00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:34,760 destroy the world and then secondly he 56 00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:37,360 appeared before Congress and uh bered 57 00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:39,319 them for not giving him his money right 58 00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:40,519 right right so the AIG Executives 59 00:02:39,319 --> 00:02:43,239 getting the 60 00:02:40,519 --> 00:02:47,680 bonuses in addition to 85 billion in 61 00:02:43,239 --> 00:02:50,080 taxpayer cash um they feel persecuted 62 00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:54,000 they feel persecuted similarly to the 63 00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:56,560 way black slaves in America were lynched 64 00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:59,360 raped tortured and murdered in the Deep 65 00:02:56,560 --> 00:03:02,720 South he he sees a kinship there that 66 00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:05,879 Cracker on Wall Street sees a kinship 67 00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:07,599 with the way blacks were lynched you 68 00:03:05,879 --> 00:03:10,760 know here's what I think Black America 69 00:03:07,599 --> 00:03:14,239 should do in light of this Revelation 70 00:03:10,760 --> 00:03:16,040 they should demand reparations for 71 00:03:14,239 --> 00:03:18,440 having built the United States of 72 00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:20,000 America they are owed by some 73 00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:23,879 calculations and this was an issue a few 74 00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:26,280 years ago5 to7 trillion dollar in cash 75 00:03:23,879 --> 00:03:29,000 right now Black America this cracker 76 00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:31,360 thinks you're not what his suffering of 77 00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:33,319 taking millions in bonus money is 78 00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:35,439 equivalent to you building the entire 79 00:03:33,319 --> 00:03:37,760 country that he now profits from he's 80 00:03:35,439 --> 00:03:39,120 also you know the bank the I keep on 81 00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:40,720 calling it a bank it wasn't really a 82 00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:42,599 bank it was supposed to be an insurance 83 00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:44,519 company and they were selling credit 84 00:03:42,599 --> 00:03:46,519 default swaps which they couldn't they 85 00:03:44,519 --> 00:03:48,799 didn't have any reserves against it a 86 00:03:46,519 --> 00:03:50,280 bank pretends anyway that it has 87 00:03:48,799 --> 00:03:52,519 reserves remember an insurance company 88 00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:55,519 doesn't need any reserves so they went 89 00:03:52,519 --> 00:03:58,760 bust with those now he's also however 90 00:03:55,519 --> 00:04:00,360 saying that not only were we blameless 91 00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:03,280 here 92 00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:05,560 but even the rest of the population is 93 00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:07,280 to blame he calls them the villain it's 94 00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:08,760 the the people who took out mortgages 95 00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:10,879 that they couldn't afford that are to 96 00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:12,760 blame it's the Nations across Europe 97 00:04:10,879 --> 00:04:14,400 that went bust that are to blame no the 98 00:04:12,760 --> 00:04:17,239 fact is the black population in America 99 00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:19,400 was lynched again because AIG and the 100 00:04:17,239 --> 00:04:21,639 credit def fall swap Market was fueling 101 00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:24,639 the subprime crisis which led to 102 00:04:21,639 --> 00:04:26,400 foreclosure on Americans black Americans 103 00:04:24,639 --> 00:04:29,320 who had taken out mortgages on 104 00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:31,320 properties fraudulently sold to them by 105 00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:33,400 Bank of America by City Group backed up 106 00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:35,840 by fraudulent non-insurance products 107 00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:38,240 like credit the F swops marketed by AIG 108 00:04:35,840 --> 00:04:39,520 they've had a huge wealth confiscation 109 00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:41,080 and they're feeding into the prison 110 00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:43,440 population I got a good insurance 111 00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:45,840 product it's called black insurance if 112 00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:48,320 you're born black in America is like an 113 00:04:45,840 --> 00:04:50,919 80% chance you're going to go to prison 114 00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:52,440 if you have a black child mom get black 115 00:04:50,919 --> 00:04:54,080 Insurance because that kid's going to 116 00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:55,800 jail and you need to pay for it right 117 00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:57,560 now there's a huge business right there 118 00:04:55,800 --> 00:04:59,759 AIG why don't you get into the black 119 00:04:57,560 --> 00:05:01,320 Insurance business this guy's he's 120 00:04:59,759 --> 00:05:02,919 unconscionable I can't believe as an 121 00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:04,919 American I have to put up with people 122 00:05:02,919 --> 00:05:07,039 like this calling themselves American 123 00:05:04,919 --> 00:05:08,880 well another way to look at this is of 124 00:05:07,039 --> 00:05:10,360 course to see when we had all the 125 00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:12,160 lynchings in the South and it happened 126 00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:16,039 well past slave days it happened up 127 00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:17,800 until the 1940s and 50s so 60s so it's 128 00:05:16,039 --> 00:05:21,919 it's not something that ended with 129 00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:26,319 slavery but not very many people lined 130 00:05:21,919 --> 00:05:29,080 up to be lynched in the South however in 131 00:05:26,319 --> 00:05:31,919 America today everybody is lining up to 132 00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:34,319 be just like Ben moshpit we'll call him 133 00:05:31,919 --> 00:05:37,800 moshpit okay because it's easier that 134 00:05:34,319 --> 00:05:39,680 way the AIG CEO the headline reads 135 00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:42,160 should we worry about unproductive 136 00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:43,680 financial sector gobbling up our best 137 00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:45,759 this is from Robert Schiller and he says 138 00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:47,240 the economic value to Society of so many 139 00:05:45,759 --> 00:05:49,000 of our best and brightest making their 140 00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:51,600 careers in the currently popular kinds 141 00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:54,080 of other Finance has yet to be pinned 142 00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:56,080 out so again remember that Noti dur in 143 00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:58,479 the South nobody lined up to be like 144 00:05:56,080 --> 00:06:00,840 them everybody's lining up to be like 145 00:05:58,479 --> 00:06:03,080 the CEO of a AIG that's what everybody 146 00:06:00,840 --> 00:06:04,759 wants well in a survey of elite us 147 00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:08,160 universities Katherine rample found that 148 00:06:04,759 --> 00:06:12,479 in 2006 just before the financial crisis 149 00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:16,080 25% of graduating seniors at Harvard 24% 150 00:06:12,479 --> 00:06:18,599 at Yale and a whopping 46% at prinston 151 00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:20,160 were starting their careers in financial 152 00:06:18,599 --> 00:06:22,919 services because they want to get 153 00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:24,960 lynched like this guy in an AIG because 154 00:06:22,919 --> 00:06:27,400 lynching is is what people aspire to Now 155 00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:29,199 in America they go to Harvard 25% of the 156 00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:31,199 graduating class says I want to be hung 157 00:06:29,199 --> 00:06:34,039 like a black man in the South can I get 158 00:06:31,199 --> 00:06:35,840 into the finance business I'm a victim I 159 00:06:34,039 --> 00:06:38,240 was they forced it billions of dollars 160 00:06:35,840 --> 00:06:41,240 of bonuses on me I'm a victim oh I can't 161 00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:43,560 stand it I'm being lynched I I can't say 162 00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:45,319 man like James Brown is rolling over his 163 00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:48,599 grave right now that's the problem with 164 00:06:45,319 --> 00:06:50,880 America since James Brown is gone it's 165 00:06:48,599 --> 00:06:54,560 complete lack of 166 00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:56,599 funk well okay so Bob Ben MOS remember I 167 00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:58,800 said he's he's essentially in financial 168 00:06:56,599 --> 00:07:00,879 services is an insurance company but 169 00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:03,199 it's the new sort of other financial 170 00:07:00,879 --> 00:07:05,280 services so I'm going to read to you 171 00:07:03,199 --> 00:07:07,879 what this involves according to a study 172 00:07:05,280 --> 00:07:09,280 by Thomas philippon and Ariel rashev 173 00:07:07,879 --> 00:07:10,960 much of the increase in financial 174 00:07:09,280 --> 00:07:12,800 activity has taken place in the more 175 00:07:10,960 --> 00:07:16,280 speculative fields at the expense of 176 00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:18,879 traditional Finance from 1950 to 206 177 00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:21,120 credit intermediation I.E lending 178 00:07:18,879 --> 00:07:23,440 including traditional banking declined 179 00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:25,400 relative to quote other Finance 180 00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:26,919 including Securities Commodities Venture 181 00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:28,840 Capital private Equity hedge funds 182 00:07:26,919 --> 00:07:30,840 trusts and other investment activities 183 00:07:28,840 --> 00:07:33,759 like investment banking or in the case 184 00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:36,160 of AIG and Bob Ben MOS it was this 185 00:07:33,759 --> 00:07:39,520 financial products unit the products 186 00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:41,720 were cdos and cdss which blew up well 187 00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:43,720 what it means basically is that a 188 00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:46,240 graduate of one of these schools will go 189 00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:49,159 to Wall Street and they'll take a pile 190 00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:50,720 of debt that will never be repaid and 191 00:07:49,159 --> 00:07:53,879 they will mathematically figure out a 192 00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:56,039 way to reclassify this debt as some new 193 00:07:53,879 --> 00:07:58,120 fangled piece of debt that again will 194 00:07:56,039 --> 00:07:59,759 never ever be paid and then AIG will 195 00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:01,400 write a credit default swap which again 196 00:07:59,759 --> 00:08:03,240 is completely uncollateralized and not 197 00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:05,440 insurance by any definition and they'll 198 00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:07,879 say it's okay to trade even though it's 199 00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:09,960 based on collateral that in itself has 200 00:08:07,879 --> 00:08:11,599 no value whatsoever based or referenced 201 00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:13,800 or collateralized by another piece of 202 00:08:11,599 --> 00:08:16,720 debt which itself has no collateral 203 00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:19,919 either in this cated Ponzi scheme that 204 00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:23,639 has

00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:54,280 look where that uh has gotten Us in 414 00:17:52,120 --> 00:17:56,600 Britain it's never been done before I 415 00:17:54,280 --> 00:17:59,320 hope to be the first person to do it if 416 00:17:56,600 --> 00:18:02,760 I run for mayor of London with VI as my 417 00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:05,360 economic Zar then I'm going to try and 418 00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:07,640 crowdfund that campaign we need to raise 419 00:18:05,360 --> 00:18:11,200 a million pound get a million votes and 420 00:18:07,640 --> 00:18:12,799 if we do we'd be the mayor of London and 421 00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:15,919 the bankers would be jumping in the 422 00:18:12,799 --> 00:18:18,440 river because they would know that air 423 00:18:15,919 --> 00:18:20,960 and his team had arrived that would not 424 00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:24,200 allow them to lay the city of London 425 00:18:20,960 --> 00:18:26,480 waste in the interests of the city of 426 00:18:24,200 --> 00:18:28,120 London so crowdfunding does have 427 00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:30,039 political applications I'm absolutely 428 00:18:28,120 --> 00:18:32,159 sure about that now we do the show in 429 00:18:30,039 --> 00:18:33,400 front of this building behind us and I 430 00:18:32,159 --> 00:18:35,640 don't know if everyone knows it but that 431 00:18:33,400 --> 00:18:38,360 is the official headquarters of the 432 00:18:35,640 --> 00:18:40,120 mayor of London so you're thinking that 433 00:18:38,360 --> 00:18:43,440 for a million pounds through 434 00:18:40,120 --> 00:18:46,880 crowdfunding you could mount a credible 435 00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:50,400 campaign to become mayor of London well 436 00:18:46,880 --> 00:18:53,880 I will have raised £100,000 for a movie 437 00:18:50,400 --> 00:18:57,039 in 40 days uh if this last seven days 438 00:18:53,880 --> 00:18:59,000 goes to plan uh we don't need to raise 439 00:18:57,039 --> 00:19:01,000 10 times that over a longer period perod 440 00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:03,559 the elections not for 3 years for 441 00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:06,960 something just as significant as a movie 442 00:19:03,559 --> 00:19:08,600 arguably much more but the point is that 443 00:19:06,960 --> 00:19:10,120 you know isn't crowdfunding doing 444 00:19:08,600 --> 00:19:12,080 something that you would have expected 445 00:19:10,120 --> 00:19:13,000 to happen in democracy I mean you know 446 00:19:12,080 --> 00:19:14,760 what I'm saying what happened to 447 00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:16,600 democracy and all this George you're a 448 00:19:14,760 --> 00:19:19,559 student of History what happened to the 449 00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:22,200 participatory democracy well it it is a 450 00:19:19,559 --> 00:19:25,480 democratic way of funding something in 451 00:19:22,200 --> 00:19:28,720 an era when the very lack of democracy 452 00:19:25,480 --> 00:19:31,039 in funding has led us to the corporate 453 00:19:28,720 --> 00:19:33,600 control of virtually every aspect of Our 454 00:19:31,039 --> 00:19:35,919 Lives that the rulers would like to 455 00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:39,080 impose upon us and look where it's got 456 00:19:35,919 --> 00:19:41,039 us it's not just that it's not uh moral 457 00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:44,320 it's that it's completely incompetent 458 00:19:41,039 --> 00:19:46,360 ineffective not working so a better 459 00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:49,000 system has to be found and I think 460 00:19:46,360 --> 00:19:51,320 democracy in this and in every other 461 00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:54,240 respect is the best way forward and 462 00:19:51,320 --> 00:19:57,320 crowdfunding is the purest form of 463 00:19:54,240 --> 00:20:00,760 democratically funding action making a 464 00:19:57,320 --> 00:20:02,840 movie storming the bastile of the 465 00:20:00,760 --> 00:20:04,679 mayor's office over there we could put 466 00:20:02,840 --> 00:20:06,520 out a a plank like they do in the pirate 467 00:20:04,679 --> 00:20:08,559 ship and Boris could be forced to walk 468 00:20:06,520 --> 00:20:10,640 the plank here's the temps river right 469 00:20:08,559 --> 00:20:13,480 here it's not much of a drop only if you 470 00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:15,520 can guarantee some crocodiles in it all 471 00:20:13,480 --> 00:20:17,280 right let's talk about this film The 472 00:20:15,520 --> 00:20:19,159 Killing of Tony Blair as you mentioned 473 00:20:17,280 --> 00:20:21,799 the corporatization of politics has led 474 00:20:19,159 --> 00:20:23,799 to the corporatization of the political 475 00:20:21,799 --> 00:20:25,799 animal so that they have a life when 476 00:20:23,799 --> 00:20:29,480 they get out of office Bill Clinton is 477 00:20:25,799 --> 00:20:31,440 now set to make hundred million from um 478 00:20:29,480 --> 00:20:34,679 going around the world his wife Hillary 479 00:20:31,440 --> 00:20:37,039 charges hugely for speeches Al Gore $500 480 00:20:34,679 --> 00:20:39,440 million for sale of his TV network in 481 00:20:37,039 --> 00:20:43,000 the United States Tony Blair is one of 482 00:20:39,440 --> 00:20:44,440 the dodgiest of the lot um he is around 483 00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:46,559 going around the world this is kind of 484 00:20:44,440 --> 00:20:49,280 the basis of your film and he's making a 485 00:20:46,559 --> 00:20:51,120 killing kind of cashing in on his uh 486 00:20:49,280 --> 00:20:53,000 Reign at Prime Minister where he said 487 00:20:51,120 --> 00:20:54,600 there was no blood for oil and yet he's 488 00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:56,240 out there cutting deals in the oil patch 489 00:20:54,600 --> 00:21:01,320 clearly it was blood for oil tell us 490 00:20:56,240 --> 00:21:03,159 more the concept first coined by you 491 00:21:01,320 --> 00:21:05,520 that the prime ministership the 492 00:21:03,159 --> 00:21:07,600 presidency no longer is the Pinnacle of 493 00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:10,840 your career but merely a step along the 494 00:21:07,600 --> 00:21:13,600 way an entry on your resume on your way 495 00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:17,799 to the big job the job that makes you 496 00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:20,279 rich as crous and Tony Blair who by the 497 00:21:17,799 --> 00:21:22,799 way as this film will show had a 498 00:21:20,279 --> 00:21:24,520 constant insecurity about money he went 499 00:21:22,799 --> 00:21:27,120 to a public school he went to a fancy 500 00:21:24,520 --> 00:21:29,440 Oxford College he liked the AES and 501 00:21:27,120 --> 00:21:31,840 Graces of the upper class but never was 502 00:21:29,440 --> 00:21:34,600 upper class he always felt financially 503 00:21:31,840 --> 00:21:37,559 insecure so he's been as busy as a be 504 00:21:34,600 --> 00:21:40,799 for seven years making a pile of money 505 00:21:37,559 --> 00:21:44,159 tens of millions of pounds and that's 506 00:21:40,799 --> 00:21:46,720 his real job his real job was to use the 507 00:21:44,159 --> 00:21:49,559 prime minip of Britain to create an 508 00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:51,200 environment good for the corporations 509 00:21:49,559 --> 00:21:53,080 and to create a world environment good 510 00:21:51,200 --> 00:21:56,200 for the tyrannies and the tyrannies and 511 00:21:53,080 --> 00:21:59,840 the corporations are now making him rich 512 00:21:56,200 --> 00:22:02,679 but here's the point this kind of thing 513 00:21:59,840 --> 00:22:04,880 is an inducement to the current crop of 514 00:22:02,679 --> 00:22:06,559 rulers look what happened to Tony look 515 00:22:04,880 --> 00:22:09,679 what happened to Al look what happened 516 00:22:06,559 --> 00:22:12,720 to Bill you play ball with us and when 517 00:22:09,679 --> 00:22:14,559 you're finished office you'll be as rich 518 00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:17,240 as you could possibly have imagined you 519 00:22:14,559 --> 00:22:19,200 might ever be and that's a fundamentally 520 00:22:17,240 --> 00:22:21,919 corrupting thing in the case of Tony 521 00:22:19,200 --> 00:22:25,000 Blair his State admission with his new 522 00:22:21,919 --> 00:22:26,240 corporate entity is to bring peace in 523 00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:29,360 the Middle East that's one of the 524 00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:31,279 mandates of his organization and yet it 525 00:22:29,360 --> 00:22:34,039 seems he's doing the ab absolute 526 00:22:31,279 --> 00:22:35,919 opposite stirring up a storm so that the 527 00:22:34,039 --> 00:22:37,799 weapons dealers make money the Oil 528 00:22:35,919 --> 00:22:39,679 Dealers make money and everyone else the 529 00:22:37,799 --> 00:22:41,720 middlemen make money everyone's cashing 530 00:22:39,679 --> 00:22:44,080 in on this doing the exact opposite of 531 00:22:41,720 --> 00:22:45,760 Peace he's not part of this quartet of 532 00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:47,679 Peace he's part of the Four Horseman of 533 00:22:45,760 --> 00:22:49,279 the Apocalypse bringing death and 534 00:22:47,679 --> 00:22:50,960 destruction to the Middle East that's 535 00:22:49,279 --> 00:22:52,720 what Galls people that's what sticks in 536 00:22:50,960 --> 00:22:54,400 their craw not that he's making money I 537 00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:55,840 mean okay he's making money why 538 00:22:54,400 --> 00:22:57,760 shouldn't somebody make money but that 539 00:22:55,840 --> 00:22:59,640 he's making an an egregious amount of 540 00:22:57,760 --> 00:23:01,200 money by doing the exact opposite thing 541 00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:03,200 he says he's doing and by taking 542 00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:05,159 advantage of his position as a public 543 00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:08,679 official well I I couldn't have put that 544 00:23:05,159 --> 00:23:11,240 better myself the the not since Caligula 545 00:23:08,679 --> 00:23:13,320 appointed his horse as a proconsul of 546 00:23:11,240 --> 00:23:14,640 Rome has there been a more inappropriate 547 00:23:13,320 --> 00:23:17,240 appointment than Tony Blair as the 548 00:23:14,640 --> 00:23:19,159 Middle East peace Envoy not only is he 549 00:23:17,240 --> 00:23:20,799 dripping in the blood of the people of 550 00:23:19,159 --> 00:23:23,679 the Middle East from Wars gone by when 551 00:23:20,799 --> 00:23:26,279 he was in power he has incited war after 552 00:23:23,679 --> 00:23:28,600 war after war and supported war after 553 00:23:26,279 --> 00:23:31,080 war after war in the very Middle East 554 00:23:28,600 --> 00:23:33,159 the minimum ambition of our movie The 555 00:23:31,080 --> 00:23:35,320 Killing of Tony Blair is to have him 556 00:23:33,159 --> 00:23:38,240 kicked out by at least one member of the 557 00:23:35,320 --> 00:23:41,039 quartet our maximum ambition is to see 558 00:23:38,240 --> 00:23:43,720 the cell door slam shut after him at the 559 00:23:41,039 --> 00:23:46,120 heg because we believe he ought to stand 560 00:23:43,720 --> 00:23:48,600 trial for crimes against humanity for 561 00:23:46,120 --> 00:23:50,440 war crimes in the he at the 562 00:23:48,600 --> 00:23:52,679 international criminal court a court 563 00:23:50,440 --> 00:23:54,640 which he himself supported the 564 00:23:52,679 --> 00:23:57,279 establishment of of course Donald 565 00:23:54,640 --> 00:23:58,960 Rumsfeld can't travel in Europe for fear 566 00:23:57,279 --> 00:24:00,760 of being arrested and taken into the egg 567 00:23:58,960 --> 00:24:03,400 because of war crimes Tony Blair has a 568 00:24:00,760 --> 00:24:06,120 similar cloud or not yet he has a 569 00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:08,279 toxicity about him in Britain which for 570 00:24:06,120 --> 00:24:11,440 example was the reason David Cameron 571 00:24:08,279 --> 00:24:13,720 lost the vote on the proposed Syria War 572 00:24:11,440 --> 00:24:15,120 Blair was hovering there like stop you 573 00:24:13,720 --> 00:24:17,480 right there George gway because you're 574 00:24:15,120 --> 00:24:21,159 in the House of Commons that clo vote on 575 00:24:17,480 --> 00:24:24,679 the Syria war was close yeah and very 576 00:24:21,159 --> 00:24:27,600 close and you know you're in the House 577 00:24:24,679 --> 00:24:29,399 of Commons your way of thinking after 578 00:24:27,600 --> 00:24:32,159 years that anti War demonstration that a 579 00:24:29,399 --> 00:24:33,559 lot of people said went nowhere finally 580 00:24:32,159 --> 00:24:35,520 with you and the House of Commons and a 581 00:24:33,559 --> 00:24:38,120 lot of other like-minded folks there was 582 00:24:35,520 --> 00:24:40,080 a defeat of a war initiative really the 583 00:24:38,120 --> 00:24:43,640 first time in hundreds of years so 584 00:24:40,080 --> 00:24:45,320 you're on the some would say the margin 585 00:24:43,640 --> 00:24:47,000 however when it came to that vote in the 586 00:24:45,320 --> 00:24:49,600 house of parliament it tipped against 587 00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:53,559 that war so now you and your like-minded 588 00:24:49,600 --> 00:24:56,880 MPS have redirected this the history of 589 00:24:53,559 --> 00:24:58,760 this country quite so not since 1782 has 590 00:24:56,880 --> 00:25:00,200 a British prime minister been defeated 591 00:24:58,760 --> 00:25:02,520 on a matter of War and Peace in 592 00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:04,600 Parliament and that was Lord North in 593 00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:07,960 connection with the war against the 594 00:25:04,600 --> 00:25:10,440 revolting American colonists and so it's 595 00:25:07,960 --> 00:25:12,960 historic by any measure it also was 596 00:25:10,440 --> 00:25:15,320 decisive if we had not taken that 597 00:25:12,960 --> 00:25:16,799 decision by just 13 votes that day 598 00:25:15,320 --> 00:25:20,279 President Obama would have launched the 599 00:25:16,799 --> 00:25:23,000 war that weekend but because we voted 600 00:25:20,279 --> 00:25:24,919 the way we did he had to stop and take 601 00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:27,240 stock and take it to the Congress and 602 00:25:24,919 --> 00:25:30,039 events moved in a way that President 603 00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:31,679 Putin and Russia swept up diplomatically 604 00:25:30,039 --> 00:25:33,480 and have run rings around the US 605 00:25:31,679 --> 00:25:35,679 Administration but it would never have 606 00:25:33,480 --> 00:25:37,200 happened if our vote hadn't gone the way 607 00:25:35,679 --> 00:25:40,159 that it had and how important are 608 00:25:37,200 --> 00:25:43,000 so-called alternative media like RT and 609 00:25:40,159 --> 00:25:45,240 other networks and media Outlets that 610 00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:47,000 are going against corporate media in in 611 00:25:45,240 --> 00:25:49,200 changing the way people are thinking in 612 00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:51,919 the House of Commons massively and 613 00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:54,840 everywhere you go people say we saw Max 614 00:25:51,919 --> 00:25:58,440 we saw you we saw you on Max's show on 615 00:25:54,840 --> 00:26:00,919 RT and other uh means the the the 616 00:25:58,440 --> 00:26:03,240 YouTubes and the Facebooks and Twitter 617 00:26:00,919 --> 00:26:05,440 and all the rest we are able now to get 618 00:26:03,240 --> 00:26:09,080 around I mean I get absolutely no 619 00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:11,679 justice from mainstream British media in 620 00:26:09,080 --> 00:26:13,880 fact nowadays you have to work hard even 621 00:26:11,679 --> 00:26:16,000 to persuade me to go on mainstream 622 00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:18,640 British media because I don't need it 623 00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:20,159 because I can reach just as many people 624 00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:22,960 without having to jump through the hoops 625 00:26:20,159 --> 00:26:24,720 and suffer the opprobrium and uh 626 00:26:22,960 --> 00:26:27,799 contempt that these people habitually 627 00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:31,080 show people whose views it's turned out 628 00:26:27,799 --> 00:26:35,039 are in the majority in the country so 629 00:26:31,080 --> 00:26:36,840 all power to RT all power to Max Kaiser 630 00:26:35,039 --> 00:26:38,640 and the Kaiser report well I'm going to 631
