Anyway, in this video he describes what an asset is and how they are used in game theory. Which is different to what to what I thought an asset was, which was someone who helped the CIA, or MI6, ect. Anyway, all of us have biases and triggers which the intelligence agencies of other countries, or our own intelligence, or a criminal syndicate, would have studied and so they will know that within a narrow range of probabilities what decisions we are likely to make under certain circumstances. Then all they have to do is set up the circumstances to get the outcomes they want, like say, a war in Iraq, for instance, and in this way they can manipulate politicians to do their bidding. Jeff Gates seems to make out we can all be easily manipulated by people with a very malicious intent. It's an art and a science.
Jeff Gates says the US is run by a criminal syndicate which has strong links to Zionism, another criminal outfit.
Part 2 is even more interesting because, here, Jeff Gates says how even he was manipulated. He believed free markets would solve the world's problems and so he became a true believer in Reagan's supply side economics. He was in the Soviet Union at the time advising Gorbachev and Yeltsin about privatisation when criminal oligarchs grabbed all the state's industrialises, but the same thing happened in the US too, where oligarchs took control of everything. In his book, Jeff gates describes how supply side economics was a con designed to make just a few people rich, so perhaps even Paul Craig Roberts was duped too? Jeff Gates says how we get brainwashed all our lives to see things in a certain way, which makes open to manipulation.
Jeff Gates wonders how did the value everything become reduced to just money? How did money become the only thing that mattered? I'm sure Paul Craig Roberts would agree with that too.

“Jeff Gates book, Guilt by Association had a chapter on economics where he described how supply side economics was an orchestrated criminal racket.”
ReplyDeleteOf course it is. Only a graduate from the FIIS (Franko Institute for the Incourigably Stupid) would think otherwise.
(Incidentally what is it with that little maggot and its pathetic obsession with what it calls art majors?)
“Jeff Gates says the US is run by a criminal syndicate which has strong links to Zionism, another criminal outfit.”
The little maggot would call Gates' assertion a “conspiracy theory.”
“In his book, Jeff gates describes how supply side economics was a con designed to make just a few people rich, so perhaps even Paul Craig Roberts was duped too?”
Roberts was duped because he had been part of the Washington “in” crowd. As U.S. Assistant Treasury Secretary under Reagan, PCR was a bulldog for neoliberalism and austerity (i.e. deficit reduction). He worshipped Reagan and Zionists for most of his life. Only in the last five years or so has PCR finally awakened from his lifelong madness.
“Jeff Gates wonders how did the value everything become reduced to just money? How did money become the only thing that mattered?”
Large societies tend to estrange people from their next door neighbors, and even from their own family members. As such, money becomes the primary way that we value everything and everyone. This illness will cause human extinction.
That is an excellent book that everyone should read, especially all of the people who lined up to honor McCain. Gates was supposed to write another one before the last election but he seems to have disappeared.
ReplyDeleteYes, GLH, and the videos above are old. I was wondering why he wasn't doing more? The Right seem to do a lot of interviews of him because of his strong anti-zionist views, but I didn't see a political bias in what he has to say, the left, the real left, rather, should be interviewing him more. I think he is more pertinent to the left.
ReplyDeleteLooks interesting but the anti-Semitic dogwhistles in the description are a bit of a turnoff. The "Zionism" reference I could brush off since we really should be opposed to Zionism, but following it up by describing the people who looted the ex-USSR as "Russian-Jewish oligarchs" is too much. Obviously most of the Russian oligarchs are not Jewish, and trying to use the disproportionate number who are to blame Jews for Russia's economic problems is as outrageous as it always is.
ReplyDeleteI noted that the video entitled
ReplyDelete'Red Ice Radio - Jeff Gates - How the Israel Lobby Took Control of U.S. Foreign Policy and Public'
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cr56HuPf-9o
concerning the 2008 book [Jeff Gates, Guilt by Association] is as interesting as the videos linked by Kevin Vincent/Kaivey. Gates' comments re B Obama's recognition by 2015 of the involvement of Israelis in events of 9/11/200 are supportive of Chris Bollyn's explanations, however, I was unable to find any info on who Jeff Gates is!
He is mentioned on Wikispooks and the following:

however, there is no biographical info which I could verify.
I changed the article to say, 'Russian and Jewish oligarchs', but I don't know if that sounds any better. I don't know what the ratio of Russian-Jewish to Russian oligarchs was at the time of Yeltsin because it is difficult to get the figures. The Right wing sites quote figures but but I'm not but sure if i can trust them.
ReplyDeleteIn the documentary called, The Rise of Putin and the Fall of the Russian Oligarchs, you will see that quite a lot of them were jewish. Sadly, the video has been posted by an antisemitic and he has changed the title.
I don't like Red Ice because they are very right wing and extremely racist.

I myself am certainly not anti-Semitic.
Their Jewishness is quite irrelevant to the argument. Better to omit any mention of it -- "criminal oligarchs" covers all who were involved.

ReplyDeleteI agree in principle but there is more to it, since this is a pervasive phenomenon that has a long history.
Is the reason that so many mention Jewishness in relation to oligarchs, bankers and finance types, etc, but not the military, etc., simply a matter of implicit bias, or is there some basis for it that is evidence-based.
Is the "jewishness " of some categories of groups much higher than the population ratio? If so, is this a statistical anomaly, or is there some explanation?
I don't know the answer. Just putting the question out there since the issue keeps coming up. Quite clearly, it matters in terms of the stories we tell ourselves and how they motivate us. Specifically, there is a lot of ugliness arising in the world today around it.
I decided to change it to criminal oligarchs, Tom, to not bring unwanted attention to this site. But Philip Giraldi lost his journalist job because he said Jews instead of Zionists in one of his articles, and I disagree with that. It like you can't question of mention anything like this. I originally did not put in 'Jewish' at first, but I put it in later because Jeff Gates was referring to Zionist-Jewish criminals.
ReplyDeleteThere are a good number of "Zionists" that are not ethic Jews, many here in the US.
ReplyDeleteSo there is a distinction.
But as a political matter, it's the Zionism that is operative rather than the Jewishness.
That's right, Tom, as Stephen Lendman and Max Blumenthal, both Jews, point out.
