    Hey friends. Just a reminder that this is a very broad overview of a big topic. I could make a 12 part documentary series on just Saudi Arabia alone. But I hope this provides a broad understanding of how things have gone down in the region since the 30s. I encourage to go down the rabbit holes of parts of this that are interesting to you. There's so much more to learn about each of these events. Thanks for watching!

We have oil, we have assholes, so, what does the ME have to offer the US? Nothing. And, the US doesn't own any part of the ME.

    First thing first, the video was great, but I'm gonna correct you: 1. Women driving is not signfull in Islam, but was illegal in SA for some reason. 2. Marrying 12 women is Haram, and not allowed whether in religion or culture, so to say it is "a thing" is misleading, while marying 4 women is allowed (as long as you treat them equally and Allah in The Qur'an said you won't, so marry just one) it made complete sense long before at that time, when men used to die at war in large numbers and women were left alone with kids, or with no one to support her, it helped them.

The majority of the Filipinos of Spanish descent are of Spaniards and Mexican origin, while a minority are Latin American descents."

The same things happen here long time ago during European colonization in Southeast Asian Archipelago. They left us with borders that seperate our family and our people. Until now, me as a Malaysian need to cross the border just to meet our relatives in Sumatera and Riau Archipelago. If the Johore-Riau-Lingga Sultanate and all the Sultanate in Sumatra still exist, surely it will be wonderful.

I believed if even all the kingdom of the Nusantara is not united, an organization like EU but with better understanding will be exist too.

    @@muhammadnaim8203 Well that's the case of Malaysia. Sultanate are all muslims, if I'm correct ? Kingdoms in Indonesia have great tolerance ofc, but it's hard to keep one not offended. What cause them to have tolerance is ironically the dutch that colonized indonesia for 3 centuries. I think it's different with EU, because they mostly have one goal, i don't know much about them. But one of the reason why the Dutch CAN colonized Indonesia is because some kingdoms are fine with the monopoly that the Dutch did (because of money, ofc). For example, the Solo sultanate is dismantled because they helped the dutch, unlike the Yogya who helped the Indonesian govt during the hard times. European invasion is somewhat a plus and ofc the minus are much worse, but that's one of the key factor of why we tolerate and unite at the first place. Till this day, conflicts in Indonesia are still happening, especially toward Papuans. Those "conflicts" are trying to seperate us like the Papuan freedom. In fact, Timor Leste actually regrets they break out of Indonesia because : they get used by foreigners like Australia. I think it's better to stay like this, because if you think Indonesia have massive tolerance, no it's not. I heard Malaysia are actually more conservative than Indonesians, idk. Younger generations like me are (mostly) not racist because we grew up in multicultural enviroments, rather than the older generations. I appreciate ur commentst tho, I hope ASEAN will reunite SEA countries and protect us from the greedy china who's taking our sea ^^

WW2 was probably the only war in history worth fighting and even then Wall Street Bankers and Big Businesses funded the Nazis even when they knew the holocaust was happening. The war could have ended in a month if France attacked first, they had a better and larger army which would've swamped the Wehrmacht. Every war since ww2 has been purely out of financial interest, the military industrial complex is practically welfare for the rich.

That, in itself, speaks a lot over the level of control those in power have over public opinion. If you want to dig deeper then your turn now to provide evidence that there was barter before money, which is what all established economics books taught us at school. And if that's not enough then feel free to lookup "58 Admitted False Flag Attacks globalresearch" and try to debunk any of the sources there. Good luck because you'll need it!

It’s easier to just dismiss them as “monsters,” when, while their actions were monstrous, they were just men, and by ignoring this fact the United States allows itself to keep committing the actions that drove those men to do those things in the first place, insuring that new men will continue to come to take their place.
