To anyone reading this, congratulations on not being brainwashed.

What a Rich and diverse history of extermination America possesses.

First time listening to Jeff Brown. Fantastic guest, absolutely fascinating stuff. Please invite him back.

The Philippines currently owns 7641 islands, some used to belong to China 3000 years before there was such a thing called the Philippines (Created in 1946), but China let it go because at the time when the US seized those islands from China, China was a battered and weakened country having been invaded by the US, UK, Germany, France, Austria-Hungary, Italy, Russia, and Japan. But now with Bongbong Marcos at the helm the US uses the PH to fight its war with China much like it uses Ukraine to fight Russia! I have read the US’s military think tanks’ papers and they said the US should use the PH along with other countries in the Pacific (Such as Japan, S Korea, Australia, Vietnam, Thailand, and China’s own province of Taiwan to fight China so that China would be weakened and won’t have the ability to surpass the US since the idea was to weaken China so that the US would always be the most dominant country in the world and be able to rule every country in the world like it has been doing for nearly a century. Those papers said that the PH would be the US’s prime target to be used to fight China since its locations could be used to block China’s sea trading routes and sink China’s cargo ships and it provides the US with a battleground site to fight China so that any deaths and destructions would be incurred by the Filipino people and not by the American soldiers.

It is great to get Jeff Brown's historical and current perspectives on Southeast Asia, and the role of the USA. Thank you, Nima

Right on! Must have Jeff Brown back! Thank you Nima! ❤😊

My favorite guest. He remains true to communist principles not what goes around calling themselves Communist today. He's anti-war, pro nationalism, anti mass migration and pro working class.

Astonishing interview with one of the best ever. Thanks so much for bringing Jeff Brown back. Many of the fine commentators on these programs are knowledgeable because of personal experience as ambassadors, military people, weapons specialists, etc. But there are few with Jeff Brown’s breadth of knowledge based on both his experience and jaw-dropping knowledge of history. Amazing interview. Please keep Jeff Brown on your list of frequent interviewees.

Jeff has the right perspective and all the facts.

In Ukraine text books were also rewritten. A new history was invented to split Ukraine from its russian origin.

Nima. You are remarkable with how you select and contact these guests. The way he educated about the history I had no clue about. I will need to reply just to absorb it. But really sparked an intrest in me thank you abundantly

Mr. Jeff J. Brown is one of the most admirably wise scholars with comparatively less or no biased point views of the world affairs. And this positively shows the upright integrity of the young gentleman Mr. Nima R. Alkhorshid.

Brilliant Guest. Thank you Nima and Jeff J Brown. 🎯

Jeff Brown: knowledgeable, wise, outspoken direct witness account. Impressive critique of decades of historically malign western horrors and U.S. neocon manipulation in the region. Fearlessly honest and pedagogical. Thank you.

Captivatingly interesting to listen to Jeff J. Brown, he gets credit for that.

American government has been recruiting young politicians or well connected from all over the world to come to studying in the U.S. in order to cultivate these people for future leadership rolls in their respective countries.

This whole situation is like a giant train crash you know it's going to be bad but can only watch hopping that it isn't that bad after it happens

I f blame the People who write the History Books around the World! How could they celebrate D-Day without Russia! My Father who was parry was part of D-Day would be ashamed of not having Russia there on the 70 Anniversary!!! My Dad was one of the lucky Americans that survived that Day!!!

It totally escapes me HOW the Filipinos could have elected Ferdie and Imelda's boy, Ferdinand Romualdez Marcos Jr, popularly known as "Bong Bong". WHY?

The Philippines has more than 7600 islands of which only about 2000 are inhabited. More than 5000 of the islands are yet to be officially named. And yet the Philippines is in contention with China and other countries over the tiny Spratly Islands of which none are really inhabited. Philippines should embrace China and tell the U.S. to go home (that's the sanitized version of what they should tell the U.S.).

China should start supporting Hawaiian separatists.

Thank you. Another great one.

Nima, Jeff is very good, he brings in a different perspective & on Taiwan & Philippines, analysis is Spot On. Bring back Jeff often

Really well done Nima, you are the best(accessible to an English speaking audience) that I've seen in terms of looking into aspects of the global geopolitical-economic situation that are little talked about in other popular alternative media outlets. Thanks.

Jeff Brown has the best analytical vision of any current analyst. I like his objectivity and non-bias without the presence of Western narratives and propaganda.

Very informative video. Mr. Jeff J. Brown - a fantastic guest. I'm terribly sorry for the ordinary people in the Philippines, they are really wonderful (I've been there once), but it all seem to look like a 'Stockholm syndrome', a fate of never truly independent country. Thank You. ❤

Great guest again - he tells things I was not aware of. Thanks Nima! Admire how calm you are and how you give your guests space to tell their stories without interupting them or force them into any direction.

Excellent podcast!!!! Wealth of information. Thank you.

Great guest Nima. Pls bring him again

Us military planners are idiots. These bases are not forward staging areas. They are targets. In the opening salvo,vPrC will take out Guam, Okinawa, and these 3 bases in PH with hypersonic and ballistic missiles. Everything US puts there in next 2 years, POOF gone in 15 minutes.

Taiwanese youth are extremely Western oriented now. Tune in to any Taiwanese radio station playing contemporary sounds and you'll find that at least 35% to 40% of "songs" played are exact replica's of USA rap cr*p except that the lyrics are in Chinese.

Chiang Kai Shek move China government to Taiwan after being defeated by Mao with civil war that has not ended up to now. Taiwan prosperity acquired from wealth looted from China bring by Chiang and started to develop it. While many mainland Chinese was starving to death.

Sponsored by the NED. Dima should also have Brain of the New Atlas on his programme, Brian is an excellent geo political analyst.

Great that you had Jeff Brown on your show. He & his mate James Bradley (Flags of our fathers & Imperial Cruise) have both contributed so much in exposing the inner workings of the US Imperium. It'd be great if you could get both of them together on one of your future podcasts.

++++Amazing! One of the best interviews ever. Thank you.

I live in France and I can attest that what he's saying about the situation here is true!

Thank you Nima and Jeff for another important interview. The best weapon we have is the truth. I'm a U.S. veteran retired in the Philippines. You will not find better people.

This window on parts of the Asian scene is very interesting, given the Chinese and US preoccupation withTaiwan. The info regarding polls was surprising, from former news reports I'd heard that more than half the Taiwanese population was in favour of unification (re-unification?)

Very interesting, as always! Thanks, guys!

I 🤔 it was the English in 2nd Boer War, maybe they just improved on the Spanish model 😅

I am from Taiwan, and I think Mr. Brown has got the Taiwan-China relationship right. While USA is pushing Taiwan into Ukraine 2.0, Ukraine is culturally Russian, while Taiwan is culturally mixed China and Japan. Same play scripts would produce very different outcomes.

thanks for knowing and sharing about the colonization and oppression of our people

Jeff is the best!

Thanks

Brown is a really good analysis and speaks well.

Wonderful interview again, nima. Free the world from the US.

Great video Nima. Thanks for your guests' time and information.

Brilliant guest...i love history and i can relate to his historical perspective

One of best interview plz bring him more Nima

Thank you for this highly informative video. Unfortunately the corporate media do not support your timely and valuable work.

The Big Lie Machine - no coincidence marketing is invented and brought to extreme capability in the USA. They were the first that understood that media and politics could be run with the same techniques. They are still the best at it in the world. Completely scrupulous.

très bon rappel mais il en a été de même avec l'Afrique, l'Amérique des Amérindiens, L' Australie, La Nouvelle-Zélande,.....

Nima, great guess, fair, balanced, knowledgeable about the history of the area, keep it up.

Jeff J. Brown is going to be significantly surprised when and if he retires with his wife to Taiwan. He is living in the past, as his comments about Taiwan Province license plates clearly demonstrates. The Taiwan Provincial government was downsized during constitutional reforms way back in 1996, with many of its responsibilities transferred to the National Development Council and the Executive Yuan. In July, 2018, the Provincial government with all its parts and budget were abolished. I have lived here in Taiwan for over 35 years, and I am shocked to hear Jeff J. Brown describe the people of Taiwan as being "very Japanese in their behavior". He then goes on to make a list of characteristics that the Taiwanese share with Japanese. In reality, most of these characteristics are rooted in the Chinese culture of the Taiwanese people. I have worked with Taiwanese people for years, and I have never heard ANY people describe a deep lasting Japanese influence on the culture here. The Taiwanese people may claim that they are different from Chinese people POLITICALLY, but nearly ALL the people here will admit that they share cultural backgrounds with Chinese people. How could they not? They speak Chinese; they eat Chinese food; they worship religions that are shared with China (there are no adherents of Shintoism or Japanese forms of Buddhism here); they celebrate Chinese holidays. Brown is accurate in his description of how the DPP government has tried to whitewash Chinese history, study, geography, etc. from the education system, but he is perhaps unaware that many young children learn of these from other sources than the government education system. Ask elementary schools students here about traditional Chinese literature such as Journey to the West, and you will find that they ALL know the stories of Tang dynasty Buddhist monk Xuanzang, the Monkey King Sun Wukong, the pig/man Zhu Bajie, and Sha Wujing.

Hi Jeff,love your work!Dave,from Perfidious Albion!

Nima, Listening to Mr. Brown talk about the Philippines, and knowing is true is incredibly sad so I couldn’t watch the entire video is heartbreaking. Appreciate all your efforts. Keep us informed.

❤ Great Episode And Great Guest 👀🤠🇨🇦❤️

I dunno about this guy ….the Philippines gained independence just after WW 2, the yank’s demobilization and removed nearly every U.S serviceman. With the Korean War this worried the Philippine government and the U.S negotiators did a deal for a certain amount of U.S bases to counter any possible expansion of the communist threat. By the 70’s the threat was long gone and Marcos senior started working up the local population with anti American sentient to kick out the yanks so by the 80’s there was less then 15,000 u.s servicemen there by the early 90’s it was under 8,000 and with the closer of Clark under 100 and these where liaison officers….hard to control a WHOLE country with no bases and under 100 military..🤷‍♂️…seriously Mr Brown you have to be honest if you expect to be taken seriously. Then with all the changing geopolitical realities in the last 30 years this has ended up with the U.S having 9 bases or access to bases under a military agreement…that’s a presence but with all those 1,000’s of islands and millions and millions of people it’s not a “controlling force”. Even this new Marcos stated in April he’s unwilling to give the yanks access to anymore Phillipino bases, the Phillipino elite might be corrupt and westernized but it doesn’t make them anti Asian , anti Chinese or stupid, they might be self centered but they will NOT destroy their country for the U.S they are NOT like the west Ukrainians who took control of Kiev with a CIA coup in 2014 totally different situation. I won’t even start on his thoughts on Korea or Taiwan…and the British invented “concentration camps” in the Boer war…killed thousands of women and children via disease mainly, Brit’s and their empire troops rounded up thousands and thousands of farm families to stop them helping the native insurgents. I’m an old bloke in Australia and have never left my country but I do read a lot and have an older brother who’s ex Army and he is married to a local Phillipino and has lived over there for the last 15 years, he’s of the opinion that there very welcoming friendly intelligent people but if you cross them…well they don’t take shit from anyone. I would love my country to kick out the U.S bases here in Australia and pivot hard to ASIA, ..no it won’t happen in my life time and probably not in my sons 🤷‍♂️ but you can only hope. I think the average American, Australian, Canadian etc (western citizen) is not racist, expansionist or wants to dominate the world but are fed propaganda from the globalist elites who control our so called democracies and the propaganda media machines so the citizens are told we are “defending democracy” or helping a smaller victimized country…all lies but it works until one day it doesn’t lol. I think this bloke is delusional at best or deranged at worst. Just my opinion and I may be wrong…I did listen to the end as I believe in listening to many views. Regards from Australia 🇦🇺

i worked 50 years in usa and never got a vacation. unless you count a few 3 day weekends.

Thanks. I downloaded the samples of his very interesting books !

I hope that when Jeff settles in Taiwan he will be able to help open some eyes.

Not sure what the hell he is talking about if you stay for 3 months you get social security in France. If that was the case why would hundreds of people cross border from France into UK?

Fascinating interview

At some point he becomes ridiculously ignorant… or deliberately misinforming us? 🙅🏻‍♀️

The Filipinos was never a colony but an overseas province of Spain. Its citizens were equal Spanish citizens.

Nima, could you, please, invite economist and professor Yanis Varoufakis to discuss with you, in your program?

I like this guy, cuts through the bullshit.

Thank you for talking a out the polls and the protests!!!!

Nima, there are actually THREE political parties that are highly relevant in Taiwan politics. In the Presidential / Legislative elections this year (2024), the DPP, the more "pro-independence" party, retained control of the presidency with 40% of the vote. The other two parties, the KMT (Kuomintang = "Nationalist Chinese") and the PFP (People's First Party) were unable to agree on a shared ticket, with both candidates unwilling to take the subordinate Vice-President role. These two parties, both of which favor a more balanced approach to relations with closer, friendlier relations with China, accounted for 60% of the vote for president. In the Legislative Yuan, the DPP LOST its majority (previously 61 out of 113 seats, an outright majority), and the KMT now have 52 seats, the DPP 51, and the PFP 8 seats. There are two independent legislators who vote with the KMT, and in all legislative procedures since the election, the PFP has voted with the KMT. This gives the "opposition" a firm majority of 52 (KMT) + 8 (PFP) + 2 (independent) = 62 out of 113 seats. President Lai is now a lame duck president, with a hostile majority in the Legislative Yuan against him. This is the current situation in Taiwan. It's clear that the US Ukraine proxy war against Russia, which has cost so many Ukrainian lives, has made a significant impression on the people of Taiwan. They understand that although Sleepy Joe Biden has said 5 times that the US will send troops to defend Taiwan, they will actually do no such thing. This is China's backyard, and the Dong Feng hypersonic missiles in Fujian Province would result in the US getting a black eye or worse in any potential conflict. I think President Xi will be patient, and the people in Taiwan will elect a president more willing to forge closer relations with China.

Not taught in schools, especially Philippine ones

@20:42 The Japanese are "kind"???????? Have you heard of the Nanking Massacres??? Have you heard of UNIT 731??? Please do your homework. @47:45 If conditions are so good in France, why do the illegal boat people want to go over from France to UK then?

Also one must always remember that history always find a way to repeat itself. Empires do RISE & Empires do FALL, and the USA's Empire is now finding itself in this same predicament now in 2024. The CNN Presidential debate of June 28, 2024 is your answer to that as well.

Dispite of those horrible treatment from the west still they want to serve these empire than to have good relationship with their biggest trading neightbour.

China should give people from the mainland financial incentives to move to the island and give a majority for election purposes.

He may have been a little charitable toward the Japanese. Other than that he was an informative guest.

80-85% of the Taiwanese people want to maintain the status quo. Not 40%.

Nima, Jeff, little wonder a Filipino sighed that narcotics back on streets of Manila; unlike disciplinarian Duterté😅

NOT what I am seeing here in France. All local outdoor markets doing a good trade. There may have been places in France where there was NO heating but I don't know where that was.

Also, China became Japans, the Philippines, and Taiwans largest trading partner after the COLLAPSE of Capitalism via the September 16, 2008 Global Economic & Financial Crisis with a Made in the USA by Wall Street Label on it as well.

Phi is a great source for population replacement in Europe, which has a very rapidly declining population. The lowly occupied pews of churches all across Europe can be filled a little with huge immigrations from Phi with its young and humongous population of 120 million and rising. Otherwise, those churches will simply become tourist sites and concert halls... repurposed for other faith or even demolished.

His analysis on french politic was totally biased and caricatural somewhat. Le Pen is the daughter of Jean-Marie. Her party that she inherited from her father is a very racist one. I hope she wins though, because I believe it’s the only way for Africa to claim its young talents back.

Excellent informative video!!!! The rulers are much more powerful and evil than I had realized.

Holland is a province in the Netherlands.

Very interesting information But what the world do ? It sounds everywhere has been colonized :(

My grama used to say warsh, brainwarshed, she would've loved the term lol

Free plastine

We're the jewellery cap

Where did you find ... Elmer Fudd ...???

My country is the major chaos agent in the world. And it's all about weapons sales. Greed and death. It's the 4th of July. Nothing to celebrate today.

Self-interested human tribalism (scaled-up to the self-interested state) isn’t a reason-based rational phenomenon - it is a Paleo-regressive instinct-based identity-based phenomenon developed through ethnocentrism (“race” and racism), monotheism (any prevailing belief system/unique exceptionalistic origin story), and ultra-nationalism (territoriality), which exerts itself through the in-group/out-group dynamics of tribal instincts with authoritarian characteristics.

nima asks a good question and lets the guest go. danny h asks long questions showing off what he knows, finally lets the guest talk, then begs for money. if i had any i would support this channel.

They are all smart people and they are all brain washed 😅

btw the highest IQ’s & highest test scores in STEM are all Asean countries Taiwan China Singapore Japan South Korea (no order) it’s remarkable really

Do you mean Amelda Markos didn't need 3000 pairs of shoes?

you want to move to Tiawan? Now, that's just crazy.

The Orthodox Church did NOT separate from the Roman Catholic Church. The Romans separated from the Othodox. This distiction is crucial. I respect your vast geopolitical knowledge, Mr. Brown, however, you are wrong in your appraisal of this schism.

Look for 2 books by Sterling Seagrave, The Marcos Dynasty and Gold Warriors. Fascinating information well related.

Another great interview

Can you invite mr baars from the gulden middenweg

Isn't former President Duterte's daughter "Bong Bong" Marcos's Vice President?
