How the U.S./UK Empire Works — as in the Middle East
6 February 2025, by Eric Zuesse. (All of my recent articles can be seen here.)
It’s shown with remarkable clarity, in the first 14 minutes of this video from Vanessa Beeley, on February 6th:

Whereas all of its first 14 minutes — the entirety of Beeley’s report — is extremely insightful into what’s now happening in the Middle East (especially Israel, Palestine, Syria, Egypt, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, and the U.S. regime that has been running the show there ever since at least the 1970s), the following from me expands upon what I consider to be the most stunning portion of it:
Richard Dearlove, head of Britain’s MI6 in 1999, said in 2014, at the empire’s Royal United Services Institute, this (see him saying it at 10:55 to 11:30 in the video), “The second Saudi incident predates 9/11 and comes from a conversation with Prince Bandar [(bin Sultan al-Saud), who then had been Saudi Arabia’s Ambassador to the U.S. and working with his buddy Georga W. Bush to set up 9/11, and having the active participation of FBI Directors Robert W. Mueller, James Comey, and Louis Freeh for that operation] I believe at the moment the head of GID [General Directorate of Investigation] in Saudi Arabia, and that was, ‘The time is not far off, Richard, in the Middle East, when it will be literally GOD HELP THE SHIA [the Iran-led Muslim sect] — more than a billion Sunnis [the Saud-led Muslim sect] have simply had enough of them.’” Basically, whereas Sunni Islam accepts hereditary monarchies (such as the ones in Arabia), Shia Islam doesn’t — and thus is viewed by Islamic monarchs (including the Arab ones) as being a mortal threat to their continued rule. The U.S. and Israeli regimes therefore work with Arab monarchies against Shiism — and ESPECIALLY against Iran, and has been very actively doing so ever since the U.S. regime (which had won control over Iran in a 1953 U.S. CIA coup — go to page 116 there to see a description of it) lost Iran in 1979 (when the U.S.-imposed tyrant became overthrown in an authentic revolution). And this is the reason why the U.S. regime constantly touts the blatant lie that “Iran is the chief state-sponsor of terrorism [jihadism],” despite the demonstrable fact that virtually 100% of jihadist attacks are perpetrated by SUNNI fundamentalists, NOT by Shia.
The Palestinians are overwhelmingly Sunnis, but they are anti-imperialists because they have experienced the worst of imperialism themselves; and, so, the only predominantly Muslim Governments that have been supporting them against Israel — which is America’s biggest colony in the Middle East — have been Shia-led countries, especially Iran, Iraq, Syria, and Lebanon. And this is why, whereas Israel has been contributing the troops to ethnically cleanse or else exterminate the Gazans, the United States has been donating the weapons and the bombs to do that.
On January 31st, Craig Murray headlined a video “Israel Slaughters and Destroys in Southern Lebanon”, showing him traveling around the ruins from the Israel-U.S. bombings of that area; and at 3:00 he enters what had been the beautiful home of Dr. Julia Ali, including her destroyed concert piano; then, at 4:00 he plays a clip of her performing on it at home. Here is an instagram I found of her at home playing the piano and then Israeli troops occupying her house and destroying her piano. This is another instagram, in which she comments upon the beautiful world that now was gone from her. And here she is shown working at the hospital before the bombings. At 11:50 in Murray’s video, he shows land that Israel has taken, and points out that “they’ve taken more land during the cease-fire than they ever took during the fighting.”
As regards the question of whether or not what Israel and the U.S. are doing to the Gazans constitutes “ethnic cleansing” or even “genocide,” the best logical analysis that I have encountered on this question was youtubed on 4 January 2024, titled “Is Gaza REALLY Gone? Norman Finkelstein Answers.” I seriously doubt that anyone who claims it’s NOT this will attempt a counter-argument to it.
The reason why the obvious attempt by Jews and Christians (such as Trump’s new U.N. Ambassador) in the American empire to exterminate all Palestinians is NOT condemned inside the American empire as being what it so obviously is, is the same as the reason why the hidden attempt by Christians in the German empire to exterminate all Jews was NOT condemned inside the German empire.
Merely for a country to CLAIM to be a “democracy” doesn’t mean that it IS any sort of democracy at all.
The social ‘sciences’ in such dictatorships hide — not expose — such realities there. And this is why the ‘news’-media there can get away with LIKEWISE hiding it. But that doesn’t mean it’s not so. It instead exemplifies that it IS so.
PS: If you like this article, please email it to all your friends or otherwise let others know about it. None of the U.S.-and-allied ‘news’-media will likely publish it (nor link to it, since doing that might also hurt them with Google or etc.). I am not asking for money, but I am asking my readers to spread my articles far and wide, because I specialize in documenting what the Deep State is constantly hiding — what the ‘news’-media ignore if they can, and deny if they must. This is, in fact, today’s samizdat.

Investigative historian Eric Zuesse’s latest book, AMERICA’S EMPIRE OF EVIL: Hitler’s Posthumous Victory, and Why the Social Sciences Need to Change, is about how America took over the world after World War II in order to enslave it to U.S.-and-allied billionaires. Their cartels extract the world’s wealth by control of not only their ‘news’ media but the social ‘sciences’ — duping the public.
