In this episode of the Biblical Anarchy Podcast, Jacob responds to the recent debate between Dave Smith and Douglas Murray on the Joe Rogan Experience, using it as a springboard to explore the deeper issues at play: narrative control, revisionist history, blowback, and the Christian response to war. Jacob unpacks why labeling alternative historical perspectives as "conspiracy theories" is often a power move to shut down dissent, not a defense of truth. Drawing from Scripture, he highlights examples where those in power—from David and Saul to the Sanhedrin and Herod—manipulated narratives to protect themselves. He then connects these biblical patterns to modern history, pointing to the USS Maine, the Iraq War, and the way states manufacture consent for war through deception.Jacob also explores how blowback works—not only in America's foreign policy but in Israel's handling of Gaza and Hamas. He breaks down the roots of Hamas's rise to power, Israel's role in preserving the group's political dominance, and how these decisions contributed to the horrors of October 7th. Throughout the episode, he calls out the dangers of collectivism, especially in labeling all Palestinians as terrorists, and explains why biblical justice rejects collective guilt. From the weaponization of antisemitism to the idolization of "experts," this episode challenges listeners to seek the truth, love their enemies, and walk the narrow road of peace and prophetic witness in a time of tribalism and propaganda.Full Episode Show Notes at BiblicalAnarchyPodcast.comThe Biblical Anarchy Podcast is part of the Christians For Liberty Network, a project of the Libertarian Christian Institute.Audio Production by Podsworth Media.

Spansk-amerikanska kriget 1898: ett amerikanskt imperium

Spansk-amerikanska kriget 1898 utlöstes av en olycka den 15 februari när det amerikanska pansarskeppet USS Maine exploderade och sjönk i Havannas hamn på Kuba. Kuba var spansk och det amerikanska fartyget var på plats för att skydda amerikanska intressen och amerikanska medborgare.Händelsen blev den tändande gnistan i en konflikt mellan Spanien och USA om in flytandet i Västindien och på Filippinerna. Kriget 1898 skapade ett amerikanskt imperium och avslutade Spaniens ställning som kolonialmakt på det västra halvklotet.I detta avsnitt av Militärhistoriepodden pratar Martin Hårdstedt och Peter Bennesved om ett kort men ändå på många sätt betydelsefullt krig. Kanske tillhör det spansk-amerikanska kriget 1898 de lite bortglömda militära konflikter som trots allt har fått stora konsekvenser.USA tog i och med kriget på allvar steget fullt ut mot att bli en imperiemakt. Detta var inte en självklarhet. USA hade under 1700-talets slut skapats genom en frihetskamp bort från det brittiska styret. Nu i slutet av 1800-talet fanns starka krafter som ville utveckla USA till en imperiemakt.Kriget 1898 brukar i Spanien betecknas som den stora katastrofen. Spanien var långt ifrån sina fornstora dagar på 1500- och 1600-talet då landet var en ledande stat i Europa och världen. Kriget mot USA kom synnerligen ovälkommet och den spanska regimen hade inga resurser att föra kriget, men måste samtidigt anta utmaning för att inte riskera att få hemmaopinionen mot sig.Krigets utgång med förlusten av allt det som återstod av besittningarna i Västindien och Filippinerna innebar att Spanien var en europeiska stat med mindre områden i Nordafrika. En mental kris infall sig som faktiskt i slutänden tvärtemot vad man hade kunnat tänka sig stärkte spanjorerna. Ur katastrofen 1898 föddes en vitaliserat Spanien. Den nya generationen av spanjorer blickade framåt och lade imperiet bakom sig.Kriget blev ur militär synvinkel en blygsam historia. Framföra allt handlade det om hur den överlägsna amerikansk flottan snabbt besegrade den spansk flottan. På Kuba landsteg en amerikansk expeditionskår som så småningom kunde intag Santiago. På Filippinerna kontrollerades Manila snabbt, men det amerikanska maktövertagandet blev inte så enkelt på övriga delar av ögruppen. På kriget 1898 följde ett inbördeskrig mot filippinska separatister som inte ville leva under amerikanskt styre.Den som vill läsa vidare kan med fördel välja Angus Konstams San Juan Hill 1898 : America's emergence as a world power (1998) eller Joseph Smith The Spanish-American War : conflict in the Caribbean and the Pacific, 1895-1902 (1994).Lyssna också på Kom ihåg Alamo – nederlaget som byggde Texas.Bild: Spanskt infanteri på Filipinerna under Spansk-amerikanska kriget 1898, Wikipedia, Public Domain.

150 Years Ago (March 1874) After The Peekskill Messenger boasted that Mr. Sutton was the longest-serving church choir director on the East Coast, having been at Second Presbyterian for 34 years, The Cold Spring Recorder countered that Mr. Barrows had been at the Episcopal church in the village for the same amount of time. The Recorder reported that "temperance people congratulate each other [on progress made to make alcohol illegal] and hope the day is not distant when every whiskey cask will be knocked in the head." The Cold Spring Board of Trustees proposed a budget of $3443.50 [about $89,000 today], including $600 [$15,500] for street cleaning, $400 to pave the Main Street crosswalks and $200 to deepen the Paulding Avenue well. Charles Baxter sued Oscar Organ for $100 [$2,700], alleging that he quit before completing an eight-month contract as a laborer. Oscar's father, C.J., offered $39.85 to settle - the wages left to be paid - but Baxter refused. A jury awarded $40. The Recorder noted that a Western Union agent traveled on the Hudson River Railroad. For a small additional fee, passengers could have telegraphs delivered to any station on the line. John Dougherty, employed by Capt. George Wise, was arrested in Cold Spring for public intoxication. While awaiting transfer to the county jail, he told Officer Morrison that he had information to offer: He had witnessed the killing of a railroad watchman at the 30th Street depot in New York City and could provide the names of the gang members involved. Stephen Davenport escaped serious injury when a cow protecting her calf placed her horns on either side of his thigh and threw him. The cow was after a dog that had taken refuge behind its master. Howard Dykeman was playing on a soft couch when a threaded needle went into his leg, eye first. The doctors put the boy under ether but decided it was too deep to remove. The Recorder reported that, "like hundreds of letters," three soldiers found themselves in Cold Spring instead of Cold Spring Harbor, on Long Island. J.G. Southard lent them $10 to buy return train tickets. The newly formed Cold Spring Total Abstinence Society met at Town Hall. Vincent Merritt reported finding two horse blankets on the Breakneck road. William West, 34, of Philipstown, died from head injuries sustained when he jumped or fell from a train as it passed near Cortlandt. He and Thomas Avery, who were traveling together, had asked the conductor and engineer to slow the train so they could jump off. When they refused, West ran to the back of the last car but Avery said he did not see in what manner he left the train. Seeing his friend tumbling beside the tracks, Avery jumped after him but was not injured. Two cows owned by Richard Denny in North Highlands found their way into the barn and ate so much feed that they died. His loss was about $100. 125 Years ago (March 1899) Prof. Treat of Garrison caused a stir while walking his 25 performing dogs around Highland Falls before an appearance. Mr. and Mrs. Joshua Sherwood hosted a party for their neighbors. Grace Sherwood and Ethel Briggs each played the organ while guests elsewhere studied the somber pictures of Milton's Paradise Lost. The gentlemen smoked and argued about the duties of town officers. Supper was served at 10 p.m. St. Philip's Church in Garrison hosted a stereopticon viewing at the Reading Room of a wheeling trip and the cathedrals of England. A submarine mine that was taken out of Santiago of Philipstown harbor in 1898 during the Spanish-American War in Cuba arrived at West Point for its ordnance museum after being cleaned of its tropical barnacles and painted black. It was said to be exactly like the one that blew up the USS Maine in Havana harbor, killing 268 sailors. The Union News Co. secured the option to place bootblack stands at all stations of the Central Hudson, including Cold Spring. The Recorder noted that a well-own document dated at West Point, Aug. 19, 1783, gave the weight of its ...

In this episode, we delve into an event that marked a profound shift in America's role on the global stage—the sinking of the USS Maine.  Set sail with us to the late 19th century, when the United States was but a budding world power, and Cuba was ablaze with rebellion against Spanish rule. We'll drop anchor in Havana, where the USS Maine met her tragic end in an explosion that claimed the lives of 260 sailors. We will scrutinize the question that gripped a nation: was this a sinister act of sabotage, or a catastrophic accident?  Navigate the murky waters of initial investigations and their conflicting conclusions. Then, we'll steer you through the media storm fuelled by Yellow Journalism that whipped the public sentiment into a fury, bearing the slogan 'Remember the Maine, to Hell with Spain!'  Finally, reflect on this watershed moment that plunged America into the Spanish-American War, altering the course of the nation's history. The epochal sinking of the USS Maine, far more than a naval disaster, stands as a symbol of America's transformation into a formidable global power.

Les États-Unis, si l'on ignore la conquête de l'ouest, l'achat de l'Alaska et l'annexion d'Hawaii, la république ne possède pas un empire colonial à proprement parler. Cela change en 1898 avec l'entrée en guerre du pays suite à l'explosion du USS Maine dans le port de La Havane. Le conflit, qui ne dura que trois mois, donna aux Américains les bases de leur empire colonial. Cette décision a eu un impact décisif sur l'élaboration de la politique étrangère américaine jusqu'à aujourd'hui.

A train was speeding along the tracks in 19th-century England when a passenger suddenly started smashing windows and waving a pistol in the air. People believed his actions were caused by what was, at the time, a new and unfamiliar form of transportation. Doctors posited the rattling motion and noise of trains could cause passengers to act erratically, creating the short-lived but popular myth of "railway madness."In this episode of Choiceology with Katy Milkman, we look at how people often overreact to poor quality or incomplete information.A sudden explosion in 1889 ripped apart the USS Maine, the United States' largest warship at the time. The ship sank, killing more than half of the sailors on board. The Maine had been anchored in Cuba, and despite having little proof, the American public immediately blamed the Spanish for the sinking. Newspaper editors published headlines such as "Remember the Maine, to Hell with Spain!" Nearly a hundred years later, an underwater investigation would reveal what likely caused the explosion.Historian David Silbey recounts how public pressure from this tragedy pushed the United States to make a decision that would have lasting consequences for the world. David Silbey is a military historian and adjuncta professor and director of teaching and learning at Cornell University. He is also the author of A War of Frontier and Empire: The Philippine-American War, 1899-1902. His new book is called Wars Civil and Great: The American Experience in the Civil War and World War I. Next, Katy speaks with Ned Augenblick about his research that shows people's tendency to overreact to weakly supported information and underreact to strongly supported information. You can read more in the paper he co-authored with Eben Lazarus and Michael Thaler, called "Overinference from Weak Signals and Underinference from Strong Signals." Ned Augenblick is a professor in the Economic Analysis and Policy Group at the Haas School of Business at the University of California, Berkeley.Choiceology is an original podcast from Charles Schwab. If you enjoy the show, please leave a rating or review on Apple Podcasts.Important DisclosuresThe comments, views, and opinions expressed in the presentation are those of the speakers and do not necessarily represent the views of Charles Schwab.​Data contained herein from third party providers is obtained from what are considered reliable source.

"An Organic Democracy"? "Space is different. Come to Spain." Spain's ignominious defeat in 1898 was an utter shock to Spaniards. Hopes of two republics vanished with civil war, and Franco's “Organic Democracy” gave way to Spain's Golden Age that was ultimately supplanted by polarized politics and inconclusive elections. Dr. Julio Ponce of the University of Seville places Spain's polarized politics in the perspective of its near past history. In this episode, we uncover the history behind the following: Was Spain the World's First Truly Global Empire? Why Seville Was the Wall Street of the 16th Century. How America's defeat of Spain in 1898 shocked Spaniards. They called it "the disaster". Who was responsible for the explosion of the USS Maine in Havana, which led to the Spanish-American War? How does the Spanish Empire's decline compare to the British Empire's decline? Why sus Franco support Franco during the Spanish Civil War? Spain's slogan during Franco's dictatorship: “Spain is different. Come to Spain.” How Spain was a Kingdom Without a King! How did Spain transition from a dictatorship to a democracy? How does Spain's Decentralized Unitary System compare to a federal system? What is Spain's current challenge in its judicial system? When was Spain's modern Golden Age and what happened to it? About my guest: Dr. Ponce is a Professor at the Dept. of Contemporary History at the University of Seville. His scholarship spans research in the History of Political and Administrative Institutions as well as the History of the State from the local perspective - such as cities and provincial councils in Spain. His research and analysis also focus on Political, Social and Economic History as well as the study of public authorities as creators of political cultures. He is the author of biographies of political figures in Seville, biographies that were awarded distinctions, by the Provincial Council of Seville and the international Juan Valera Award. He is the author of many books and book chapters, including his book Gibraltar and the Spanish Civil War, 1936-39: Local, National and International PerspectivesTo learn more about Dr. Ponce, you can visit his homepage. In this episode, Dr. Ponce talks about Spain's polarized politics. In a prior episode, which was recorded just after our midterm elections in 2022, Dr. David Schultz explained how America's politics and people became so polarized, and why that polarization will subside in a decade's time.

A version of this essay was published by firstpost.com at https://www.firstpost.com/opinion/shadow-warrior-what-ails-united-states-poor-leadership-or-malign-forces-12211192.htmlThere has been a whole series of alarming news stories from the US in the recent past. Each of them individually may have good reasons, but put together, they paint a disappointing picture. As someone who has long rooted for America, I am concerned about systemic problems..Here the stories are, in random order:* The appearance of Chinese balloons and other Unidentified Flying Objects in the sky* The publication of the accusation that the US blew up the NordStream 2 pipeline* The spectacle of former Twitter executives being grilled for unlawful censorship* The train crash that spewed a million liters of poisonous liquids into the air and ground* The mass shooting at Michigan State, one of manyBalloongate#Balloongate was intriguing when it was disclosed that a Chinese balloon with an attached payload had meandered its way across the entire United States before it was shot down on February 4th by an F-22, which incidentally is the most impressive fighter jet in the US air force. If I am not mistaken, people on the ground could actually see the balloon with the naked eye. Like many others, I wonder why the thing was allowed to be airborne for a week over the US mainland. But it started taking on more sinister overtones when it turned out that three more such objects were shot down, that there had been some incursions during the tenure of former President Trump as well, and that this was apparently a regular occurrence. Surely nations spy on each other all the time, but the victims of spying generally know how to deal with it.I was reminded of the U2 episode long ago, with American Francis Gary Powers being shot down over the Soviet Union in 1960 in his high-flying plane. This touch-and-go international incident flared up into one more Cold War spat. But the point is that nations can and do protect themselves from spies up in the sky. Then why didn't the most vaunted military force in history shoot these balloon intruders down upon first encountering them? What were the spy satellites doing with their killer lasers? What was the advice given by military intelligence to President Joe Biden? Why didn't Biden bestir himself? Why didn't they puncture the balloon over land so that its payload could be captured and inspected? Or did they not want the payload to be captured? Online skeptics had a field day. For example, In the end, the whole episode became rather comical, and the US air force, military intelligence and the brand-new Space Command looked incompetent, a bit Keystone-Cop-ish. Is that why they then proceeded, in a show of strength, to shoot down several more ‘UFO's? Many questions remain unanswered. The latest reports suggest the last few were for mere show. Nordstream 2The detailed story alleging the US destruction of Nordstream 2 (written by Seymour Hersh) is worrying and potentially very consequential. Hersh was in the past celebrated as a journalist, winning a Pulitzer Prize for his coverage of the My Lai massacre in Vietnam; but his claim that the capture of Osama bin Laden was staged did not gain much credibility. But the point is that the US and Russia are not at war, and a straightforward attack by an undeclared combatant on the physical assets of an adversary may be treated as a declaration of war. Let us remember that iconic event in 20th century US history: the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. The US felt that was a good enough reason to enter World War II.The 1964 Gulf of Tonkin incident (which may have been fake news of an attack on US naval ships) was the trigger for the US to enter the Vietnam War. Earlier, William Randolph Hearst in 1898 (falsely) claimed Spain sank the USS Maine to induce  the Spanish-American War. Thus there is precedent in American history itself for an unprovoked attack being taken as reason for hostilities and a declaration of war. My concern is that the Russians, embroiled though they are in Ukraine, may consider the Nordstream incident to be sufficient justification for war, or possibly sabotage, in the US (see below). There are discreet ways of unrestricted warfare. Media censorshipThe malign role media can play, as also seen in the Hearst story above, was brought into sharp relief in the Congressional hearings on Twitter's suppressio veri, suggestio falsi. Clips circulating on the Net showed members of Congress tearing into former Twitter executives in charge of wokeness and censorship, Vijaya Gadde and Yoel Roth, for illegally limiting their Freedom of Speech. Much has been said in this context via the Twitter Files, released online.The deliberate suppression of news seems to be the in-thing in today's America. We remember how highly damaging information about the Hunter Biden laptop was swept under the carpet. Similarly, medical professionals were made personae non grata and deplatformed when they spoke against the excesses of Covid mania (a Congressperson asked Vijaya Gadde where she got her medical degree from so she could silence Harvard and Stanford medical professors!).In addition, there is the damning Columbia Journalism Review report by Pulitzer Prize winner Jeff Gerth about how the entire media gaslighted the country regarding alleged Russian collusion with former President Trump. The media is no longer about “all the news fit to print”.The massive spill that nobody has heard ofA splendid example of that phenomenon is happening under our very noses now as the mainstream media has totally suppressed the information about the February 3rd rail accident near East Palestine, Ohio. This may well be the biggest chemical spill in recent American history. Piecing together information from diverse sources online, it appears several cars of a train carrying vinyl chloride derailed. It seems that a million liters of vinyl chloride may have been spilled, and the chemical is highly reactive, although used as an ingredient in the making of stable poly-vinyl chloride, a common plastic. Not only will this have got into the groundwater, and into the nearby Ohio river watershed, which means trouble downstream (dead fish are showing up in the waterways). Significant amounts of the chemical burned, and have formed hazardous clouds which may be carried along by prevailing winds. This may well be a disaster as big as the Love Canal chemical dump near Niagara Falls some time ago, although not as big as the Chernobyl or Fukushima nuclear disasters. Yet, 20 days later, there is almost no coverage in the US media. Why? It's like the Sherlock Holmes meme of “the curious incident of dog in the night time”. The dog didn't bark because it knew the perpetrator of a crime. But the real question is, is this spill a coincidence? Or is it possible that either Russians or the Chinese are ‘punishing' the US with plausible deniability? The Chinese have enough fifth columnists in the US to do anything they want; the Russians may or may not have them. Of course it could simply be the result of poor maintenance and lax regulation. Fingers were pointed at Pete Buttigieg, the hapless Transportation honcho, but the real reason may well be a consequence of the wholesale transfer of manufacturing to China.Anyway, the root cause may be the Ukraine war in one case (Russia) or general pre-2024 election interference in the other case (China). The US would be better off spending the $44 billion it has already earmarked for Ukraine on its own turf to fix creaking infrastructure or health systems. Or in doing something about its law and order problems. There was yet another unfortunate mass shooting incident, this time at Michigan State. Why do these happen with such metronomic regularity in the US (and pretty much nowhere else)?Is it poor leadership? Or are many malign forces attacking the country?

Spansk-amerikanska kriget år 1898 skapade ett amerikanskt imperium

Spansk-amerikanska kriget 1898 utlöstes av en olycka den 15 februari när det amerikanska pansarskeppet USS Maine exploderade och sjönk i Havannas hamn på Kuba. Kuba var spanskt och det amerikanska fartyget var på plats för att skydda amerikanska intressen och amerikanska medborgare.Händelsen blev den tändande gnistan i en konflikt mellan Spanien och USA om in flytandet i Västindien och på Filippinerna. Kriget 1898 skapade ett amerikanskt imperium och avslutade Spaniens ställning som kolonialmakt på det västra halvklotet.I detta avsnitt av Militärhistoriepodden pratar Martin Hårdstedt och Peter Bennesved om ett kort men ändå på många sätt betydelsefullt krig. Kanske tillhör det spansk-amerikanska kriget 1898 de lite bortglömda militära konflikter som trots allt har fått stora konsekvenser.USA tog i och med kriget på allvar steget fullt ut mot att bli en imperiemakt. Detta var inte en självklarhet. USA hade under 1700-talets slut skapats genom en frihetskamp bort från det brittiska styret. Nu i slutet av 1800-talet fanns starka krafter som ville utveckla USA till en imperiemakt.Kriget 1898 brukar i Spanien betecknas som den stora katastrofen. Spanien var långt ifrån sina fornstora dagar på 1500- och 1600-talet då landet var en ledande stat i Europa och världen. Kriget mot USA kom synnerligen ovälkommet och den spanska regimen hade inga resurser att föra kriget, men måste samtidigt anta utmaning för att inte riskera att få hemmaopinionen mot sig.Krigets utgång med förlusten av allt det som återstod av besittningarna i Västindien och Filippinerna innebar att Spanien var en europeiska stat med mindre områden i Nordafrika. En mental kris inföll sig som faktiskt i slutänden tvärtemot vad man hade kunnat tänka sig stärkte spanjorerna. Ur katastrofen 1898 föddes ett vitaliserat Spanien. Den nya generationen av spanjorer blickade framåt och lade imperiet bakom sig.Kriget blev ur militär synvinkel en blygsam historia. Framför allt handlade det om hur den överlägsna amerikanska flottan snabbt besegrade den spanska flottan. På Kuba landsteg en amerikansk expeditionskår som så småningom kunde inta Santiago. På Filippinerna kontrollerades Manila snabbt, men det amerikanska maktövertagandet blev inte så enkelt på övriga delar av ögruppen. På kriget 1898 följde ett inbördeskrig mot filippinska separatister som inte ville leva under amerikanskt styre.Den som vill läsa vidare kan med fördel välja Angus Konstams San Juan Hill 1898 : America's emergence as a world power (1998) eller Joseph Smith The Spanish-American War : conflict in the Caribbean and the Pacific, 1895-1902 (1994).Lyssna också på Kom ihåg Alamo – nederlaget som byggde Texas.Bild: Spanskt infanteri på Filippinerna under Spansk-amerikanska kriget 1898, Wikipedia, Public Domain.

Jonathan Katz's Gangsters of Capitalism: Smedley Butler, the Marines, and the Making and Breaking of America's Empire (St. Martin's Press, 2022) tells the story of the birth and maturation of modern American imperialism, and its culmination in an alleged domestic coup attempt in 1934 led by a shadowy capitalist cabal and modeled on foreign interventions. The protagonist, Smedley Butler, is one of the most decorated war heroes in American history, a man with a singular legacy as a soldier that began when an idealistic 16-year-old boy from a privileged Quaker background joined the Marines to avenge the “sinking” of the USS Maine in 1899. From there, the career of the “Fighting Quaker” put Butler on the frontlines of nearly every important venue for the expansion of American formal and informal empire. Especially in the Caribbean―and above all in Haiti―he crushed local resistance and installed US-business friendly regimes and pioneered counterinsurgency and the so-called “banana republics” before bringing those hardnosed imperialist violent suppression tactics home to American shores as the chief of the Philadelphia police. Increasingly cynical, demoralized, and traumatized by what he had seen and done, Butler eventually became a great critic of the empire and imperialism he had devoted his life to, calling himself a “racketeer for capitalism.” As Katz writes, Butler's “contradictions are America's,” and these contradictions are on full display in Gangsters of Capitalism as Butler simultaneously killed and conquered for American interests and established despotic and pliable regimes in countries around the globe―Cuba, the Philippines, China, Nicaragua, Panama, Haiti―all while upholding the “principles of equality and fairness.” Nathan Hopson is an associate professor of Japanese language and history in the University of Bergen's Department of Foreign Languages.

We're joined by historian and podcast host Richard Lim from the fellow Evergreen Podcast Network show, This American President. Richard discusses the US Navy and Admiral Dewey's smashing victory at Manila Bay in 1898 as part of the Spanish-American War.

On this day in 1898, the Navy battleship USS Maine exploded and sank in Cuba's Havana Harbor, killing some 260 crew.

In early 1898, days after the USS Maine was sunk in Cuba’s Havana Harbor, killing some 260 American sailors and marines, Theodore Roosevelt, who was still only the Assistant Secretary of the Navy, began doing all he could to prepare America for war. This included resigning from his desk job at the Navy Department in Washington D.C., and forming the 1st U.S. Volunteer Cavalry, known as the “Rough Riders.” What he did next came as quite a surprise to those who knew him, particularly given his extraordinary ambition. In this episode of Classic Influence, we’ll travel back to the period just before the Spanish American War to uncover a few of the key characteristics that contributed to Theodore Roosevelt’s striking success. This episode also reveals Theodore Roosevelt’s proven personal strategy for conquering fear.

EPICENTRO, a richly textured portrait of the resilient people of Cuba directed by renowned documentarian Hubert Sauper (We Come As Friends, Oscar-nominated Darwin’s Nightmare). Winner of the 2020 Sundance Grand Jury Prize for World Cinema Documentary, the film launches in virtual cinemas through Kino Marquee starting Friday, August 28. EPICENTRO is an immersive and metaphorical portrait of post-colonial, “utopian” Cuba, where the 1898 explosion of the USS Maine still resonates. This Big Bang ended Spanish colonial dominance in the Americas and ushered in the era of the American Empire. At the same time and place, a powerful tool of conquest was born: cinema as propaganda. In his latest film, Hubert Sauper explores a century of interventionism and myth-making together with the extraordinary people of Havana—who he calls “young prophets"—to interrogate time, imperialism and cinema itself.

After claims that the Spanish sunk the USS Maine off the coast of Cuba in 1898, no North Dakota newspaper called for a retaliatory strike. But once the Spanish American War actually started, the papers responded with patriotic zeal. The First North Dakota Infantry quickly assembled in May that year, and by August 12th, they were in water-logged trenches south of Manila. The following day, Spain surrendered their hold on the Philippines.

He became president on march 4th, 1897. While he was president the United States army won a few great wars, like Gabe said. After Mckinley served one term he was elected president again to serve his second and last term. Mckinley was shot on september 6th, 1901 by Leon Czolgosz who shot him in the stomach twice while shaking his hand. -Ethan- McKinley widely supported the Dingley Tariff to guard the manufacturing companies from foreign companies. He also tried to get Spain to give Cuba independence but negotiations went awry and thus began the Spanish-American War in 1898. The US won quickly and got some of Spain’s oversea colonies like Puerto Rico, Guam, and the Philippines. Cuba was planned to have independence but for the time being stayed under control of the US Army. The US had just annexed Hawaii. - Blake - Before William McKinley became President he was not only the Governor of Ohio but he was the last President to serve in the Civil War. Before the end of the Civil War McKinley was able to reach the rank of Brevet Major in which he only referred to himself as his rank as he felt that was the only thing he was sure of. He was also a accomplished lawyer in which he took a case no one would take and he got every defendant off except one. Ben- One of the popular events including Mckinley was the mountain that used to be named after him. They renamed it to the traditional Native American name, “Denali” people thought it was fitting because William Mckinley never saw the mountain or Alaska, the state it was in. Mckinley was very fond of the working class, like farmers and other, he respected their work and their way of doing things.William mckinley was also the reason the secret service was created, he was the third president ot be assasinated. This pushed the US government to create a protection service for people of importance. But something that some people may not know about the secret service is that half of their work is about preventing counterfeit currency and bank fraud. 6.Ricky-william McKinley was assassinated on September 19, 1901 when as Skylar said in the stomach while shaking Leon Czolgosz hand. Leon Czolgosz was born in Alpena Michigan in 1873 to a family of eight and was bullied by his peers when he was a kid. As he grew up he and his brother worked steel for a . But in the crash of 1893 the factory closed for some time. Leon was a anarchist supporter and killed president McKinley with a .32S&W revolver, look it up. 7.Elijah- William McKinley was first Governor of ohio and then President. He was the last President to serve in the Civil War. When he was 18 he served as a private in infantry and was the youngest in his group. AT 50 years of age Mckinley became President and was assassinated in 1901 on his second term.   8. Introduction to the age of empire  Gabe - this started when we stopped isolationism which george washington told us to do and we did for 100 years but from 1898 1901 we grabbed cuba hawaii guam puerto rico and the philippines between 1870 and 1890 all the massive powers were getting colonies for resources so we also started so we didn't get left in the dust we also need those resources such as diamonds gold timber oil rubber and all sorts of more resources So we went for them which started the age of empire 2.-Ethan- Like I said before the US got a lot of places from Spain. But through most of this, the entire world was trying to get as much land as possible. America wasn’t participating at the time but they were like “oh no, we can’t get left behind” so they started competing for land too. - Blake - This time period is when the United States start to become a true super power as shortly after the Spanish-American war the U.S. had gained quite a bit of territory. 4.Ben- A lot of conflicts in the world are because of land. Maybe one side wants land while the other needs to defend it. Or maybe they’re trying to take back land from previous wars.I think it’s called the age of empire because every empire was expanding or shrinking. 5.Ricky-basically a time when we completely ditched the idea of isolationism and developed Allies like Britain. Skylar - The United States seen that other countries were gaining power and the wanted to do so as well. Europe and Asia were gaining more land. Like they said the united states gained Cuba, Hawaii, Guam, Puerto Rico, and the Philippines. 7.Hunter- this war was kind of a fight for territory and the early americans thought that spain sunk the USS. Maine by sabotaging it and then we declared war on spain. 8..Elijah-At the time United states moved more towards imperialism and less towards isolationism. This was because of the fall of manifest destiny and moving more towards taking other countries. The United States took land such as Cuba, Hawaii, Puerto rico and the Philippines. The age of empire  Gabe - As i stated before the age of empire was when we went and grabbed colonies and land for resources and so did the rest of the major powers. But there was no land to grab so they need to do what this to mahan says he says that they need a way to cross from the pacific to atlantic and vice versa they need ports everywhere and there going to need a powerful navy and in 1914 they put 140 million dollars into their navy - Blake - With the gain of this new land the U.S. needed a use for it and they had the perfect use. By that time the Navy wasn’t very powerful and was described as “Five leaky boats”. Although we had access to both the Pacific and Atlantic ocean’s we still couldn’t make big trips across seas as our ports were along the coastline. 3.-Ethan- Since Cuba was kind of ‘unoccupied’ at the moment, rebels started to mess with the Spanish owners of Cuba. The Cuban even blew up an American warship which caused American retaliation. Thus started the Spanish American War. Ben- Something clicked within the empires to cause them to all kinda take more land, most of the reasons were because of raw materials like things in africa, you could see some places like france claiming land in africa for the materials to bring back to their main country, england did a lot of this too, and some places fought for land in china. 5.Elijah- The age of the empire were the days of imperialism. We have taken over small islands such as Guam and Hawaii. As America expands the American Navy expands. America was looking outward to expansion and getting more resources. Cuba was the point that started the Spanish American War. Skylar - The Age of Empire was basically just trying to grab all the land that wasn’t claimed yet. They wanted this land to find its natural resources to make money. The United states was seeing two of the biggest , most powerful continents, Asia and Europe claiming all this land and using their resources. 7.Hunter- the age of empire for america was to gain land and allies. 8. The Spanish-American War  Gabe - Again as i said in the introduction to the age of empire we wanted to expand so we went to war with the spanish and won because we outnumbered them greatly and we took cuba guam puerto rico and philippines. - Blake - The Spanish-American War started out pretty stupid as the USS Maine had exploded off the coast of Cuba which was under rule from Spain it was most likely from a malfunction but Americans still believed it was from Spain. -Ethan- The War only lasted 6 week and the US of course won. Theodore Roosevelt was part of a troop called the Rough Riders. He helped rally quite a few of the Rough Riders’ troopers. The Rough Riders wouldn’t have stood a chance if the African-American troops didn’t assist.The Spaniards could try, fight, and muster all their troops, but they were no match for the US military’s new ships. The US decimated Spain’s fleet as quickly as you can imagine a ship battle going down. 4.Ben- Like Blake said, it was kinda stupid to immediately think that Spain did it, but i think America just wanted some kind of excuse to fight spain and claim Cuba. Then a bit after when the filipinos realized that America was no better than Spain at controlling their land, the rebeled. 5.Ricky-when ‘merica won the war they said they would not claim Cuba. But in a way they did. 6..Elijah- When the USS Maine blew up America blamed Spain sense the ship was at cuba at the time. This seemed like a act of terrorism sense most americans did not have all of the information. This war only lasted 6 weeks and the US won the war. The Rough Riders were a group that were fighting but most of them actually did not ride horses. Skylar - The United States declared war on Spain on April 11th, 1898. The United States were too much for Spain to handle. The army Roosevelt had put together were “armed and dangerous” and were not going down without a fight. That’s exactly what they did. The war ended only four months and one day later, August 12th, 1898. 8.Hunter- what started this war was the tragedy of the USS. Maine the americans thought that spain had something to do with it so we declared war and gained land and allies on top of it all. The Progressive Era  Gabe - In the progressive era which was around 1890s to 1920s there were im going to say movements cause there were a few on making life for industrial workers better they wanted to eliminate “unfair” business choices the definition of fair is actually playing by the rules and those were the rules so it wasn't necessarily unfair but it was hard for the people. In this era people got better protections women got the right to vote and consumers strengthened. - Blake - The Progressive Era was an era which came with a lot of industry changes and amendments during this time period such as the sixthteenth amendment, the seventeenth, the eighteenth and the nineteenth. -Ethan- The Progressive Era had a dark side, because they also promoted discrimination. The Wilson Administration supported modernity and progress in the world but they tried for segregation of government. Wilson’s presidency had a brief bringback of the Ku Klux Klan(or KKK) which was widely known as mostly racist to black people. 4.Elijah- The Progressive Era was a time that was wanting progress in society and business. In the 1890s to 1920s the Progressive Era was filled with reformers trying to help make public education, make businesses be more regulated and stop monopolies from taking over. The goal was to move forward. This was also the time of prohibition.   Ben- We’ve seen a lot of industrialization throughout the 19th-20th century as different countries develop technology and advance the stuff we already had. The progressive era really pushed the world’s inventors, as factories were made and different machines were created to make farming and other jobs easier, changing the industry and eventually turning it into what we have today. But as business was booming there were many corrupt businessmen, putting profit over morals.   6.Ricky-we changed a lot during this time politically and in the industry. Skylar - Like it says in the name the progressive era was an era between 1890 and 1920 that was full of progress. Women finally got the right to vote which was a pretty big deal. But like Ethan said it did have a dark side. 8.Hunter- this era was in the late 19th century to the early 20th this era aimed toward a better society. During this era protections for workers were strengthened, and women finally got the right to vote.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                             The presidency of Theodore Roosevelt - AND THE PRESIDENTIAL PODCAST Skylar - Theodore Roosevelt was born on October 27th, 1858 in Manhattan, New York City, New York. His family was very wealthy hence he lived in Manhattan $$$$$. Before he was president he was a writer. He was also known as Teddy, short for Theodore. He was elected president in 1904 after former president William Mckinley was killed. “Teddy” was apart of the republican party. Roosevelt wanted a stronger army and navy and wanted to increase American intervention in Latin America by putting out the "Roosevelt Corollary" and the Monroe Doctrine and constructing the Panama Canal. He was the youngest man to ever be president at 42 years old. - Blake - After Theodore “Teddy” Roosevelt's presidency he went on a expedition in the African Savannah. Shortly after he returned he despised how the newest president William Howard Taft had handled things and ultimately reran for office with a new party he created called the Progressive Republican Party (also known as the Bull Moose Party) but the public was split between Taft and Roosevelt and ultimately Woodrow Wilson won the 1912 election. -Ethan- Roosevelt like I said before was a Rough Rider which was one of the Navy’s troops at the time. Roosevelt passed a couple acts as president like any other president. 1 of them was the Emergency Banking Relief, which allowed the US government to study the banks’ finances to see when they should re-open them.  A little something interesting on when he died. Roosevelt died in his sleep and his Vice President, Thomas R. Marshall, said “Death had to take while he was sleeping, because there would have been a fight if he was awake”. 4.Elijah- Theodore Roosevelt also know as “teddy roosevelt” was a man of many talents and ideas. He was a game hunter, a writer and a guy that earned his face on Mount Rushmore. He started his own party known as the Bull Moose Party the Progressive Republican Party. He lost his mother and Wife on the same day. He had someone try to assassinate him in 1912. He was the first president to win a nobel peace prize in 1906. Ben- Theodore was the vice president during William Mckinley’s presidency, but once William tragically died, Theodore Roosevelt became president. Theodore’s story is a sad one, though. His mother and his wife died on the same day that his son was born. Ricky-Theodore Roosevelt was 26th president of the united states of america from September 14, 1901 to March 4, 1909. Fun fact, he had a son named Kermit. 7.Hunter- Theodore Roosevelt was president from 1901-1909 he was the 26th president after the assassination of William  McKinley. Muckrakers  Gabe - The Muckrakers were the fake news paparazzi of that day not always fake news but the exaggerated a lot to get to the people they were writing to. Sinclair a muckraker was writing about how terrible conditions in the meatpacking industry and how the meat was contaminated and how hard it was even so that they had to make a meat inspection act and a pure food act and a drug Act of 1906 because someone exaggerated in a book yes it was hard but not enough for you to convince them to make a meat inspection act Come on that's the same as saying they were not paid enough so the whole nation is paying millions to some people who pack meat. - Blake - Jacob Riis was a Danish immigrant who had made good friends with then President of the Police of New York City Theodore Roosevelt which he would talk to and get information in their talks which helped publish Muckraker stories.-   -Ethan- The term Muckraker came from Roosevelt’s speech where he said “the men with the muck rakes are often indispensable to the well being of society; but only if they know to stop raking the muck. In this ‘Raking the muck’ references the work of journalists who, as Gabe said, brought in fake news or Muck. Elijah- Muckrakers was first used as a derogatory term for journalists that were pushing for change but really just not doing much. But when this name came out the journalists used this as a term for themselves because they said that these issues mattered and they are bringing out the muck on these compRanies.     5.Ricky-Muckrakers (like Piper in fallout 4) are basically propaganda spreaders. They go for trying to expose this big government secret, or stuff like that. Ben- During the progressive era, many businessmen were corrupt, so the Muckrakers were people trying to show the world how corrupt they were. This later caused the food and drug act, which inspected foods to make sure they were safe for consumption. Skylar - Muckrakers wanted to expose people who had business that were doing well. They wanted to find the dirt in any company that was successful. Like Ethan said the term came from Theodore Roosevelt.Muckrakers were like everyone said drama queens, ‘’fake news’’, or people who exaggerate the media. They just talked a little ‘’ muck ‘’ as said in their name. Hunter- these guys are drama kings and queens the news was highly exaggerated any business that was successful they tried to get shut down.   That’s all we have time for today. Thanks for joining us in this emancipation from the box, that is learning.

During this era protections for workers were strengthened, and women finally got the right to vote.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                             The presidency of Theodore Roosevelt - AND THE PRESIDENTIAL PODCAST Skylar - Theodore Roosevelt was born on October 27th, 1858 in Manhattan, New York City, New York. His family was very wealthy hence he lived in Manhattan $$$$$. Before he was president he was a writer. He was also known as Teddy, short for Theodore. He was elected president in 1904 after former president William Mckinley was killed. “Teddy” was apart of the republican party. Roosevelt wanted a stronger army and navy and wanted to increase American intervention in Latin America by putting out the "Roosevelt Corollary" and the Monroe Doctrine and constructing the Panama Canal. He was the youngest man to ever be president at 42 years old. - Blake - After Theodore “Teddy” Roosevelt's presidency he went on a expedition in the African Savannah. Shortly after he returned he despised how the newest president William Howard Taft had handled things and ultimately reran for office with a new party he created called the Progressive Republican Party (also known as the Bull Moose Party) but the public was split between Taft and Roosevelt and ultimately Woodrow Wilson won the 1912 election. -Ethan- Roosevelt like I said before was a Rough Rider which was one of the Navy’s troops at the time. Roosevelt passed a couple acts as president like any other president. 1 of them was the Emergency Banking Relief, which allowed the US government to study the banks’ finances to see when they should re-open them.  A little something interesting on when he died. Roosevelt died in his sleep and his Vice President, Thomas R. Marshall, said “Death had to take while he was sleeping, because there would have been a fight if he was awake”. 4.Elijah- Theodore Roosevelt also know as “teddy roosevelt” was a man of many talents and ideas. He was a game hunter, a writer and a guy that earned his face on Mount Rushmore. He started his own party known as the Bull Moose Party the Progressive Republican Party. He lost his mother and Wife on the same day. He had someone try to assassinate him in 1912. He was the first president to win a nobel peace prize in 1906. Ben- Theodore was the vice president during William Mckinley’s presidency, but once William tragically died, Theodore Roosevelt became president. Theodore’s story is a sad one, though. His mother and his wife died on the same day that his son was born. Ricky-Theodore Roosevelt was 26th president of the united states of america from September 14, 1901 to March 4, 1909. Fun fact, he had a son named Kermit. 7.Hunter- Theodore Roosevelt was president from 1901-1909 he was the 26th president after the assassination of William  McKinley. Muckrakers  Gabe - The Muckrakers were the fake news paparazzi of that day not always fake news but the exaggerated a lot to get to the people they were writing to. Sinclair a muckraker was writing about how terrible conditions in the meatpacking industry and how the meat was contaminated and how hard it was even so that they had to make a meat inspection act and a pure food act and a drug Act of 1906 because someone exaggerated in a book yes it was hard but not enough for you to convince them to make a meat inspection act Come on that's the same as saying they were not paid enough so the whole nation is paying millions to some people who pack meat. - Blake - Jacob Riis was a Danish immigrant who had made good friends with then President of the Police of New York City Theodore Roosevelt which he would talk to and get information in their talks which helped publish Muckraker stories.-   -Ethan- The term Muckraker came from Roosevelt’s speech where he said “the men with the muck rakes are often indispensable to the well being of society; but only if they know to stop raking the muck. In this ‘Raking the muck’ references the work of journalists who, as Gabe said, brought in fake news or Muck. Elijah- Muckrakers was first used as a derogatory term for journalists that were pushing for change but really just not doing much. But when this name came out the journalists used this as a term for themselves because they said that these issues mattered and they are bringing out the muck on these compRanies.     5.Ricky-Muckrakers (like Piper in fallout 4) are basically propaganda spreaders. They go for trying to expose this big government secret, or stuff like that. Ben- During the progressive era, many businessmen were corrupt, so the Muckrakers were people trying to show the world how corrupt they were. This later caused the food and drug act, which inspected foods to make sure they were safe for consumption. Skylar - Muckrakers wanted to expose people who had business that were doing well. They wanted to find the dirt in any company that was successful. Like Ethan said the term came from Theodore Roosevelt.Muckrakers were like everyone said drama queens, ‘’fake news’’, or people who exaggerate the media. They just talked a little ‘’ muck ‘’ as said in their name. Hunter- these guys are drama kings and queens the news was highly exaggerated any business that was successful they tried to get shut down.   That’s all we have time for today. Thanks for joining us in this emancipation from the box, that is learning.

Please consider donating to support our effort to provide you with the truth. http://noliesradio.org/donate More info at: http://noliesradio.org/leftforum Live Streamed on June 4, 2014 from the Left Out Forum-- New York City â?? False Flags: Staged, Scripted, Mass Psy-Op Events Dr. Kevin Barrett, Dave Lindorff, Ole Dammegard Moderator: Dr. Lucy Morgan Edwards Q/A follows. False flags â?? attacks covertly created by one group then blamed on another for ulterior purposes â?? have been engineered throughout history, typically to incite wars. Today, false flags are used to achieve many shadow government goals, including fomenting Islamophobia and cowing an unwitting public into supporting a fascist agenda. Fueled by a neo-McCarthy, anti-truth climate, false flags intimidate activists from critical inquiry beyond the levels of â??acceptable dissent.â?? Ongoing attacks â?? both low-level and audacious spectacles â?? are required to maintain a fearful populace and a permanent security state. Leading false flag researchers are discovering a striking number of suspicious similarities between current false flag events. Examples include IDs left behind, CATV cameras turned off or â??not working,â?? similar, simultaneous paramilitary drills, prior police knowledge of the suspects, etc. Typically, the media does a rush to judgement, spouting what will become the official story and blatantly ignoring the many anomalies. Dr. Kevin Barrett is at the forefront of challenging the false flag phenomena. From Guy Fawkes to the USS Maine, to 9/11, Paris, and beyond, Dr. Barrett provides a comprehensive historical overview of these shadowy events. Researcher Ole Dammegard shares details from his onsite investigation of the July 2011 Norway false flag mass shooting in which a â??lone gunmanâ?? executed 69 youths at a summer camp on Utoya Island. Investigative reporter Dave Lindorff will speak about the Boston Marathon false flag incongruities and outright lies, some of which surfaced at the Dzhokar Tsarnaev show trial. Lindorff will also provide details about a little-known false flag that never materialized: a plot to assassinate the â??leadersâ?? of the Houston Occupy movement â?? all with FBI foreknowledge. Dammegard shares details from his onsite investigation of the July 2011 Norway false flag mass shooting in which a â??lone gunmanâ?? executed 69 youths at a summer camp on Utoya Island.
