The Arrangement - Monroe's Revenge (Part6/8)

Part 6 of 8. While the Middle East burns, Trump was threatening to seize Greenland, demanding Panama return its canal, deploying warships to Venezuelan waters, and formally reviving the Monroe Doctrine ... a 200-year-old claim to American dominance over the entire Western Hemisphere. In this episode of The Arrangement, a special 8-part series from Unusual Practice, we leave the Middle East to prove that this conflict was never regional. Venezuela holds the world's largest proven oil reserves. Greenland sits above rare earth minerals that determine who controls the technology of the next century. The Panama Canal handles 5% of all global maritime trade. And NATO functions, in significant part, as the world's most lucrative guaranteed defence procurement contract, where American instability generates American weapons sales. Eisenhower warned you in 1961. Specifically. On his last day in office. Sources:1.
