This week’s Global Research News Hour examines a new and insidious stratagem for overthrowing independent governments and instituting the hegemonic will of foreign powers, most specifically the United States. F. William Engdahl, author of the recent book “Manifest Destiny: Democracy as Cognitive Dissonance” takes a historical look supposed democracy movements from Lech Walesa’s Poland to the current Armenian revolt, inspecting where imperial powers like the US and NATO sought to capitalise on if not orchestrate these developments. Then Stephen Sefton, member of the anti-imperialist collective Tortilla Con Sal breaks down the anti-government protests in Nicaragua over the last month and explores the possibility that they represent a Ukraine style foreign sponsored coloured revolution.
