🕑 Added 2024-02-13 15:09:39 +0000 UTCProfessor Peter Dale Scott rejoins us to discuss the World Commerce Corporation as the early US precursor to deep political entities like Castle Bank, Nugan Hand, BCCI, and Far West…
This is the 19th installment of our oral history series with the prolific poet, historian, and political theorist who gave us parapolitics as well as the deep politics approach.
Special thanks to Dana Chavarria for the sound engineering!

I was just wondering the same about Bahais in Iran.

Many thanks to Peter for tirelessly documenting this facet of the Western deep state. In my estimation, the pushing of opiates onto the Global South and then minority populations in the metropoles is a crime that is perhaps almost on par with the other great imperialist crimes such as famines, genocide of indigenous peoples, slavery, and destruction of indigenous production/governance capacities. It would be interesting to find out how much of the missionary activity in Yunnan and elsewhere in China was tied to the American Deep State. I did a dive into Western plant hunters in Yunnan, SE Tibet, Assam, Burma area. Some of these people were ex or current military so it's an obvious connection, but now I wonder if they're pretty much all tied to the Western deep state in some way.

PDS name-checked Whitney Webb. I’m still slogging through part 1 of One Nation Under Blackmail. Very useful but just fact after fact after fact then “and they’re all connected…”
