Sorry my guy. As you guys have murderous dictators , and religious zealots. We also have religious zealots, white nationalists, quarter-focused "defense" companies, media propaganda, and political psychopaths who run our government. Most Americans have zero clue about the revolving door of bloodthirsty nutjobs who are intelligencia, financial system "professionals", lobbyists , and career beltway "professionals" who concoct complex policies that an average American cannot understand. People thousand of miles away get murdered over nothing to satisfy unscrupulous intentions.

It is frustrating to know that the West thinks it knows what it is doing, and clearly they don't and didn't - all thru "modern" history. Always thru the lens of "the West" and complete ignorance of anything else (while claiming the non-West is ignorant). The fact we CREATE MOST of our problems (the West in general) and then don't fix them. We invade Afghanistan and Iraq and have ZERO plans for how to deal with the aftermath or anything promised (electricity/plumbing/water/schools and modern hospitals - in a desert. Try to convert farms to West crops - that makes them no money... Sigh - the Bush Administration with Cheney and Rumsfeld (Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dumb) and just use the ME as their "playgrounds". The average person from the "west" has no clue how many despots the US alone put into power, and then kept in power. Only to be used as scapegoats later. Try and inform the uninformed - and you get shut down by those who are blinded by the party line, that it was for the best - at the time. Makes me want to pound my head into a wall and if I would ever get so bold as to have an opinion on the idiocy of creating Israel - I would immediately be labeled an anti-semite. I wish we could bring back the leaders of WW1/2 and have a good long chat about the mess they created and the DECADES of horrors they unleashed.

I'm non-Arab, born in Kuwait. My parents were healthcare workers working for the oil company in the late 1980s. I was 4 yr old when the August 1990 Iraqi invasion happened. My parents & I stayed on till October end. The Iraqis had great respect for us, & never harmed us in anyway. I had no idea of the nuances of this conflict due to Western media propaganda. It's such a tragedy for the citizens of the middle-east. Dr. Casagrandra is a wealth of knowledge! Excellent lecture.

I blame the media. Here in the West we pride ourselves that we have unbiased independent journalism. This is far from the truth. Just like many other things we pride ourselves in.. the elite likes to portray we have the moral high ground but clearly in practice we are largely to blame for a lot of things. The general public are too naive and misplace thier trust on the very instruments in place to uphold justice and tells us the truth.

Notice a pattern: when this video came out, people in the U.S. were still talking about ISIL. Now it has vanished from all discourse. Similarly, I remember that after the first Iraq invasion, Desert Storm vanished from public discourse, and has never returned. Most of us who lived through that event never heard most of these details at the time, and haven't heard them since (apart from this video). The second Iraq war is also quickly vanishing down the memory hole. This is what it's like to be American: we are a culture of extreme violence, but no memory.

It’s horrible! Yet Islamic civilization was the most tolerant in history since the Prophet (pbuh.) True Sharia law has a lot of mercy and what you see in parts of the Middle East even the Prophet (pbuh) only did a few times. I wish Islam had a better reputation but I WILL say, Muslims are VERY loyal and are probably the last nation to desist from the West and not compromise. May all people be guided to God and do right by one another

for any of you youngsters and people who were not in the middle east when all this happened, I was born in Egypt in 1997 years after the first American war on Iraq, I heard my father and mother speaking about it so i had little perspectives as well as our president at the time Muhammed Hosni Mubarak said when Saddam invaded Kuwait "This is gonna open the gates of Hell on us in the Arab world". 911 happens and i was just a child, so I ofc had no clue also what's going on, then the invasion of Iraq happens I only saw it on TV with my family, they were very sad, the entire Arab world was in Shock. We were struck by a Trauma that whenever we hear the word American we freak out. WE hated the west at this point, we resented them, They colonized "Destructionized" our nation left it divided into 24 countries, then came back with more destruction and Chaos. 2010 Comes, I am in the 6th Grade a minor civil war happens in my city Al bajour between 4 of the biggest families, all of them brought weapons, gas containers and hell went loose. the police came and things calmed after they gave their word they would fix the bad blood peacefully and head home, then bam they hit a police officer, word was sent to the governate main police station, 2 big police Vans filled with those shield carrying troops with sticks came, they literally stopped 3 streets away from the fight, went out of their trucks you could hear their organized foot hits on the ground from that distance, and they would do 4 Steps then yell very loud this "Haaah", in less than 3 minutes the 4 families were surrounded, and got beaten so hard, i freaked out at that sight of the troops and ran away, my house was literally less than a minute walking, just in the next street XD. they sent them to jail ofc. 2011 comes, and Jan 25th 2011 hits i was in the 1st year of my prep school (middle school) was about 12 years old or so the shit day where the Arab spring(Arab autumn more like it) hit us "it was so systematic as it happened in all these arab states in a weird systematic way u can tell the intelligence of many nations planned it", Mohammed Hosni Mubarak could see what's happening so he stepped aside as a president and put himself under the justice system saying "History will give its witness about me and others with what's for us and what's against us" and stopped a civil war like that in libya and syria from happening to Egypt. WE fell under the Rule of a terrorist organization called "Muslim brotherhood" an organization made by the British intelligence when they evacuated from Egypt "they never left without leaving a permanent disease that would benefit them on the long run" till this day btw that organization is supported and hosted by the UK. that organization was as bad as ISIL (ISIS), we went on a revolution in 2014 against them to over throw them and we elected our current president Abdulfattah Al Sisi, an intelligence genius and a military man who studied what a country means for 20 years, he took us out of chaos and did lead the fight against them and terrorism in Sinai. Now back to the point and I know this is long, but you know when ISIL hit the middle east, I felt as though I was without cover without safety, like I was drowning in a lake in the middle of the night where it is not only impossible to breathe but also to see. The MBH (Muslim Brotherhood) the other side of the ISIL Coin did the same exact horrible acts to us they did to the Iraqis and Syrians, but luckily we had an army and a police, and we still had what the professor called "a state organization" or a half state. I have been watching this on live TV our police men and people fighting them off, we made what we call "the people's Check points" they are like the police ones, but made by the people, they would block a street and stop cars and investigate them, they used machetes, knives, shotguns and pistols to keep order, and to guard their homes and neighborhoods. The Police and the Army took the most Damage and we saw their battles on TV. I also remember that things were awful for the Libyans, and ISIL was there, they captured 20 Egyptians and idc about religion but i will say it "Coptic christians" not that it matters they are still Egyptians, they slaughtered them on live TV, to fill us with fear. our President said "I don't fear anyone but God, and whoever comes near her "Egypt" I will remove them from the face of the earth" in no time, our Air forces "the Eagles in the sky" wiped them out in Libya, this action made them stop messing with us for years. I would then watch our military and police fighting in Sinai, removing mines, and capturing terrorists, criminals and drugdealers ,and weapon dealers. also saw our "Fallen" Martyrs. they did many horrible things, like attacking a small village in Sinai hitting the Mosque on Friday when all of them were at the mosque praying the friday prayer, resulting in almost wiping out the males of that village. anyways the year 2021 hits, I had just graduated and we were internally safe, except for Sinai, and I hit the Mandatory Service requirements, I had to turn myself in to the recruitment offices to do my mandatory service of 1 year. My luck put me in Sinai, when I knew this I am not gonna lie "I cried, with all I saw on TV, I was just ready to die, but I was sad that my life didn't even start, and it is over" my father called me and said while laughing "yo recruit, do you know where u were put in?" I said "since you are laughing then it is indeed Sinai, don't tell my mother, just tell her I serve in Ismailiyah away from any harm" i was a soldier in the Artillery branch of the army, in a unit of Humvees (The High Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicle (HMMWV)) mounted with TOW launchers XD my role in war was literally the commander of the crew, and the one to use the TOW launcher XD was fun to train on it tbh. the role of my unit was "Guided Anti Tank Missiles" basically hunt tanks down and since terrorists don't have tanks in Sinai, we basically were useless in this war so they used us on check points, without cars ofc just our hand arms hemls and on check points. my luck put me in "Khafif el Harakah" unit which means "Light movement" unit which has the nick name "Mashrou3 Shaheed" meaning "A Martyr project"... in Sinai they are made to Quickly engage enemies, Secure Patrols and to Quickly support and Relief Checkpoints that are under attack as well as go on missions to scout, secure and assault terrorist nests. I saw death many times, and i was not even in the hot zone. I also served on a check point which was spotted and targeted by terrorists, I had an AK47, also was appointed on a light Machine gun, and on an RPG. the last month of my service they did a simultaneous attack on two check points one that was at the beginning of the road we secure which was in ismailliyah but the sinai part of it "literally in the city" and the other was 20 minutes away from me. the one in ismailliyah was wiped out sadly, the one near me repelled the attack with no casualties. we were informed right way on raido that we are Targeted and to be at the highest level of readiness for battle. We had a month of sleepless nights, we spotted enemy scouts, scouting our check point, and we yelled curses at them, "Come here ye dogs, come here if you got balls, fight us you cowards." the check point was never attacked, just coz we were always able to spot them and report it right away. moral of the story, this is all a result of American and western plans to fuck us up. you guys have a lot of hate here in the middle east waiting for u and don't blame us, u took our lives away from us, and u are as guilty as your governments and troops for supporting this and never standing against it.

The issue with his logic is that be it that the Muslim Brotherhood related to ISIL or not, doesn't change the fact they are terrorists. anyways the leaders of that group said it on live TV "that all the fighting happening in Sinai will stop the moment El Sisi leaves the seat of presidency and puts Morsi back." Morsi was their puppet in rule and basically the ones fighting the army in Sinai were ISIL so in short they are the same shit.

Pity he doesn’t even mention the Zionist-Neocons in the executive and Pentagons office of special plans (OSP, creates by Rumsfeld and Wolfowitz, headed by Douglas feith-and whose civilian analysis, Lawrence Franklin was indicted by the FBI for spying for Israel via AIPAC) which bypassed the traditional intelligence apparatus that the executive relays on, and acted as the main information conduit to the executive. You can even watch the public committee on pre-Iraq war intelligence where the intelligence members say “we had no idea the OSP existed, etc.,) That leak to the New York Times was from Judith Miller-married the Scooter Libby who got this information from the Zionist Neocons in the OSP. So, the media leaks and the executive says “see, the media reaffirms this (because it was a “leak”). Etc., etc. There’s also Iranian agent (Iraqi exile creator of the Iraqi National Congress, INC), Ahmed Chalabi and how he played the Zionist Neocons for fools. The blame for the Iraq war rests on them in the OSP. Likud got Saddam, Iran got Iraq.

Americans may be "illiterate" today, but they weren't so much back in the 1890s. The extreme anti-intellectualism of today dates in its present form mostly to the 1980s, when you first started hearing Americans bragging that they don't like to read, the implication being that reading and pursuing knowledge would interfere with the pursuit of money-making and buying status possessions. And of course with the advent of the internet in the 1990s, Americans' 1980s resistance to reading devolved into a belief that everything is just an opinion or a point of view, that there are no facts, and they had largely stopped reading and studying so they couldn't learn otherwise. In the 1890s, though, Americans did like to read and study, a fact that lasted well into the twentieth century, with the generations of the 1960s and 70s noted for being especially learned and well read.

Actually, in the school system you saw anti intellectualism culturally start in the 1970's. It hadn't reached the curriculum or the teaching professions yet, but school had been reduced to a pathetic catwalk culture of social snobbery based upon fashion and how rich one's parents were. Once the Reagan era started, new school books were issued, 1/3 to 1/5 the size of their predecessors, and the reading curriculum replaced ideas based stories (stuff about the slave trade, scientific achievements, Robert Frost, etc) with commercial corporate propaganda, such as stories and articles about rock stars, sports figures, and television shows. I experienced being repulsed by the changes in curriculum as I was 11 when it started, old enough to notice and not like it. Celebrity worship was being forced down the throats of kids and most didn't seem to notice. You can definitely see the effects in American culture today where nobody is psychologically over the age of 12 and celebrity worship has inverted inward to showing your ass on Instagram.

I enjoyed this lecture, but then I started doing some digging to find out some more background details about some things discussed here. I'm afraid I have to say, there seem to be significant inaccuracies in this recounting of events. For example, the discussion of Iraq's invasion of Kuwait, and the US response, is very odd. I looked up two different sources and found that the two sources disagree both with one another, and with Dr. Roy. The first source is wikipedia, which seems to be edited so that its description of these events stays with the bounds of what mainstream American policy finds acceptable. So, for example, it takes a very negative approach to Iraq while largely exonerating Kuwait. The second source is, I suspect, the most accurate -- William Blum's Killing Hope, chapter 52. Blum argues that the US deliberately manipulated Iraq into invading Kuwait because it needed a pretext for a new war. With the end of the cold war, US defense budgets were in danger of being cut, so the US needed another war to keep the money flowing from Congress. Blum shows that Bush immediately condemned the invasion and started sending the US military to the region within 24 hours. This makes sense if Bush knew the invasion of coming. But Dr. Roy seems to think Bush was oblivious to the invasion until Thatcher straightened him out. He presents no evidence for this claim -- if any exists, I'd like to see it -- and it really doesn't make sense. Blum also describes Saddam's actions in Kuwait as "sacking and pillaging." Yet Dr. Roy bends over backwards to suggest Saddam was as gentle as humanly possible, and caused no damage in Kuwait whatsoever. That is surely an absurd statement. Saddam launched an invasion of another country. That is, a war. Wars are not gentle. One doesn't have to accept all the ridiculous American propaganda about Iraq to admit they were not always very nice. I suspect these problems are not alone. Throughout much of the lecture I found myself wondering whether the reality was a bit different from what Dr. Roy described. But even so, the broad outlines of the history are, I believe, accurate. Unfortunately, if I wanted to actually use this information, I would have to double check every single statement in the lecture, since Dr. Roy has demonstrated that he cannot be fully trusted. That makes this lecture considerably less valuable than I had hoped it might be.

You disagreed on minutae, if you want to blow it out of proportion and say that the whole lecture "cannot be fully trusted" then go ahead. Minuate will vary and that's why everyone ought to listen to multiple historians, you can come to your conclusion. I disagree with your findings, more importantly the sacking of Kuwait. He never said kuwait wasn't sacked, he just said it was a highly disciplined force and that Saddam wanted to integrate them into Iraq proper; the complete opposite of what US media was presenting at the time, such as where they suggested fetuses were being ripped from pregnant women. Afterall the invasion only killed 1000 kuwaiti civilians, this is nothing compared to even the most gentle of USA military actions.

I respect your knowledge and ability to present, you messed up the end of the story. Kirkuk and half of Musil are called the disputed areas according to the Iraqi constitution. When ISIL attacked Iraq, there was a vacuum in the disputed areas and Kurdish Peshmarga had to go down and protect those areas. They didn’t immediately claim land which they didn’t own, they reclaimed their territory which is now called the disputed areas! And some other parts of the ending of the story was kinda messed up!

During the previous regimes, the Kurds got displaced in Kirkuk and Mousil and were replaced with Arabs from other parts of Iraq to change the demographics of the one the area. After the Iraq invasion, this area was identified as the “disputed areas” in the constitution until the original people (the Kurds) go back to their city and the people who were brought in also go back to there original places (which never happened).

Dr. Roy, I am highly disappointed to find you having not even the slightest idea about nither Iraq as a country, nor the origin of its name, yet dare to say that the country and its name were created out of thin air by the Brits!!! ... How come you say that?!!! ... Please reffer to the Arabic history and litreture and you will find out that the Arabs have always called that region between and surrounding the Tigris and Euphrates rivers "IRAQ". The name is at least 2200 years old. The name is pre-islamic and always been there. The Ottomans divided Iraq into three provinces, that's correct. Yet, those three provinces all together still called "IRAQ". The Governer of Baghdad was the Supreme Governor of the entire three provinces, supervising the other two governers of AlBussra and AlMousel ... Accordingly when the Brits came they didn't creat anything new at all, they just used what has been already thier.

Just a minor comment, well, not so minor since 2022: The claim that Russians weren't into imperialism after 1917 is dead wrong - just ask the Crimean Tatar, the Kalmyk, the Chechens, Lithuanians, and just about every non-Russian group in "the prison of peoples". Moscovites were just busy with imperialism (say, forced collectivization) elsewhere ;)
