"Secret Affairs: Britain's Collusion with Radical Islam" written by Mark Curtis-Epilogue-10-03-2011

http://www.presstv.com/Program/202695.html

In this edition of the show we discuss the book: Secret Affairs: Britain's Collusion with Radical Islam, written by Mark Curtis.

Successive UK governments had nurtured and promoted extremists for reasons of realpolitik often at a terrible cost to the population of those countries.

Mark Curtis, in his book on "Britain's collusion with radical Islam", charts this liaison. In this groundbreaking book, Mark Curtis reveals the covert history of British collusion with radical Islamic and terrorist groups.

Secret Affairs shows how governments since the 1940s have used militant forces to control oil resources and overthrow governments.

The story of how Britain has helped nurture the rise of global terrorism has never before been told.

This densely packed history of Islamic terrorism will confirm many people's worst suspicions about the origins of al-Qaeda.

Islamic radicalism was actively encouraged as part of the British Empire's strategy of divide and rule, specifically against Arab nationalists who sought to break with the West economically.

@JaiHindArbhav. Pakistan proves the point that islam makes people crazy

Pakistan and India have genetically similar backgrounds (the key difference being Pakistan was formed for Muslims)

Indians are not as a whole crazy people, yet Pakistan has a unusually high level of craziness

Common link is Islam

[JaiHindArbhav]

PAKISTAN is the source of ALL problems worldwide - Whether its ISLAM or Terror related to ISLAM .

Madeliene Albright got it right in one go - PAKISTAN is an international Migraine!!!

I am a realist.

Look at what happens in the areas of the world where Radical Islamists hold control over the people.

KSA = A medieval-style monarchy, in which non-Muslims are not allowed the right to own a Bible or to wear a cross

Somaila = Al-Shabaab

Nigeria = Boko Haram

Afghanistan = Taliban

Pakistan = (About 1/2 the country.)

Those who aren't willing to submit to the the Islamist's demands are killed.

Women and children have no rights, nor-do non-Muslims

@BoudiccaBlanc you assert "If the Radical Islamists had the weapons and money; they would be doing the same thing"

Yet over the last 1000yrs it is we 'Christians' that persecuted and expelled Jews while the Muslims permitted them to share their land; thus proving they not in all ways the same as "us".

Your assertion that "they would be doing the same thing" is ungrounded assumption. The same assumption that comes from "game theorists" like Ayn Rand and other promoters of pre-emptive strike.

@phoneyid

The "Globalist-Banker-Corporatists­" and "One-Religion for the World" people are behind the problems of the world. Both groups want absolute power and world-domination

I've been demanding an audit of the US Federal Reserve Bank, the return to commodity-based currencies and the end to fractional reserve banking for years!

"Usury in Hebrew is "nesek" and it means “BITING” as from a serpent"

(hat tip to another YT'r for the quote)

@phoneyid

Both groups wan't world domination. If the Radical Islamists had the weapons and money; they would be doing the same thing as the so-called "NWO" (for lack of a better word) The history of conquest and slaughter of Islam is proof of that.

The "NWO" is not a monolith. There are many groups within it jockeying for power and at other times working together to achive their goal

Their goal is wrld domination. As stated in the tenets of both Islam and of the Freemasons.

@BoudiccaBlanc

If as you say 'Satan is using' then consider who's dropped the most bombs and maimed and killed and cause deformed births. Who profits from this? Certainly not Islam.

Now grab yourself a whip and head down to your nearest bank, and do as Jesus did... and note, he didn't scatter the wares of the pigeon sellers.

It's not enough to just read your bible, you need to think a little too.

[phoneyid]

So they reckon it's all been a failure of intelligence.

Well if the goal over the last 100yrs has been to gain influence and control over the oil flow... then it's been no failure at all.

As Dumbya Bush said "MISSION ACCOMPLISHED" .

@BoudiccaBlanc Correct sir. I'm glad some people understand what's going on.

"When you sup' with the Devil, you need a LO -o-o-o-o-o NG spoon."

Satan will use both the Radical Islamists and the British upper class; then destroy them both!
