00:00:08,419 --> 00:00:16,618 voted concerning the United States 4 00:00:13,039 --> 00:00:19,698 embargo against Cuba 5 00:00:16,618 --> 00:00:22,920 by the way embargo is the old word 6 00:00:19,699 --> 00:00:26,939 nowadays we would call it sanctions 7 00:00:22,920 --> 00:00:29,460 regime or sanctions it's it's United 8 00:00:26,939 --> 00:00:33,000 States did to Cuba 9 00:00:29,460 --> 00:00:37,679 for the last half century what it is now 10 00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:42,239 doing to China and Russia and Iran and 11 00:00:37,679 --> 00:00:45,000 for the 30th year in a row they voted 12 00:00:42,238 --> 00:00:48,199 and typically the vote was just like 13 00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:48,200 this year's get ready 14 00:00:48,378 --> 00:00:55,859 185 to 2 15 00:00:51,679 --> 00:01:00,659 185 countries want the United States to 16 00:00:55,859 --> 00:01:04,260 end the Embargo against Cuba 17 00:01:00,659 --> 00:01:07,618 cool countries voted in in favor of the 18 00:01:04,260 --> 00:01:10,978 Embargo one which will come as no great 19 00:01:07,618 --> 00:01:14,579 surprise is the United States which is 20 00:01:10,978 --> 00:01:19,680 imposing the Embargo and the other one 21 00:01:14,579 --> 00:01:21,478 is Israel I won't make any comment none 22 00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:22,979 is needed 23 00:01:21,478 --> 00:01:25,739 okay 24 00:01:22,978 --> 00:01:28,978 why do I bring this up because the vote 25 00:01:25,739 --> 00:01:31,259 is lopsided well it is every year 26 00:01:28,978 --> 00:01:33,799 because the rest of the world believes 27 00:01:31,259 --> 00:01:38,340 that this is an illegitimate 28 00:01:33,799 --> 00:01:41,159 inappropriate wrong policy yes I think 29 00:01:38,340 --> 00:01:43,740 Americans tend not to want to know if 30 00:01:41,159 --> 00:01:46,079 the rest of the world disapproves of 31 00:01:43,739 --> 00:01:47,819 something the United States does even 32 00:01:46,078 --> 00:01:50,459 though it's very important and probably 33 00:01:47,819 --> 00:01:52,978 more so than ever before that we become 34 00:01:50,459 --> 00:01:55,259 aware of what the world thinks about us 35 00:01:52,978 --> 00:01:58,319 because if it thinks that way about the 36 00:01:55,259 --> 00:02:01,019 Embargo against Cuba guess what you 37 00:01:58,319 --> 00:02:03,059 should not be surprised at that a 38 00:02:01,019 --> 00:02:06,000 majority of the countries in the United 39 00:02:03,060 --> 00:02:09,000 Nations wouldn't support the sanctions 40 00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:11,340 against Russia and China either 41 00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:14,520 partly because those kinds of sanctions 42 00:02:11,340 --> 00:02:17,959 often lead to war and partly because 43 00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:20,640 they are not a way to build a peaceful 44 00:02:17,959 --> 00:02:22,860 world but let's be clear 45 00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:25,500 the United States justifies the 46 00:02:22,860 --> 00:02:29,340 sanctions against Russia on the grounds 47 00:02:25,500 --> 00:02:31,199 that Russia invaded Ukraine 48 00:02:29,340 --> 00:02:34,259 okay but that doesn't really make much 49 00:02:31,199 --> 00:02:36,959 sense because Cuba didn't invade the 50 00:02:34,259 --> 00:02:40,079 United States or anybody else and it's 51 00:02:36,959 --> 00:02:43,019 got sanctions in fact the sanctions 52 00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:45,780 against Cuba began right after the 53 00:02:43,019 --> 00:02:47,159 United States invaded Cuba not the other 54 00:02:45,780 --> 00:02:50,400 way around 55 00:02:47,159 --> 00:02:53,479 when that Bay of Pigs it was called the 56 00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:57,599 Bay of Pigs invasion by American 57 00:02:53,479 --> 00:03:01,280 supported Cuban Exiles took place in 58 00:02:57,598 --> 00:03:04,199 1961 it was followed by this embargo 59 00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:08,159 neither of them achieved their objective 60 00:03:04,199 --> 00:03:10,979 which was to weaken and overthrow the 61 00:03:08,159 --> 00:03:14,939 Castro government 62 00:03:10,979 --> 00:03:17,340 okay well if embargoes sanctions 63 00:03:14,939 --> 00:03:20,639 are done to weaken and overthrow a 64 00:03:17,340 --> 00:03:22,680 government in Cuba 65 00:03:20,639 --> 00:03:25,259 um maybe in Iran 66 00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:28,200 maybe what's going on in Ukraine has 67 00:03:25,259 --> 00:03:30,899 really got less to do about the Russians 68 00:03:28,199 --> 00:03:33,719 invading Ukraine and a lot more to do 69 00:03:30,900 --> 00:03:36,780 about a program that hopes to weaken and 70 00:03:33,719 --> 00:03:39,479 overthrow Mr Putin and so forth in 71 00:03:36,780 --> 00:03:41,340 Russia than anything else and it would 72 00:03:39,479 --> 00:03:44,459 lead me and I hope thinking people 73 00:03:41,340 --> 00:03:48,000 everywhere to ask the honest question 74 00:03:44,459 --> 00:03:49,378 just as the U.N wants to prevent 75 00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:51,539 War 76 00:03:49,378 --> 00:03:54,959 military war 77 00:03:51,539 --> 00:03:58,679 why wouldn't it include that now to in 78 00:03:54,959 --> 00:04:00,299 have also economic Warfare be just as 79 00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:03,840 outrageous 80 00:04:00,299 --> 00:04:07,140 most of the victims in military war are 81 00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:10,560 civilians bystanders 82 00:04:07,139 --> 00:04:12,059 and you know in economic Warfare it's 83 00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:15,000 even more that 84 00:04:12,060 --> 00:04:17,280 it's not the leadership of the country 85 00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:19,560 it's not the government it's not the 86 00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:23,339 people who make the policy it's the mass 87 00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:26,160 of people who are victimized it maybe is 88 00:04:23,339 --> 00:04:30,918 time to be honest about these things 89 00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:34,740 and to go with 185 who are against 90 00:04:30,918 --> 00:04:36,060 embargoes in Cuba probably against them 91 00:04:34,740 --> 00:04:39,540 everywhere else 92 00:04:36,060 --> 00:04:43,620 and take the Bold step of reducing the 93 00:04:39,540 --> 00:04:48,840 risk of War militarily by reducing the 94 00:04:43,620 --> 00:04:48,840 legitimacy of applying sanctions 6692
