the psychic powers and government conspiracies history is riddled with unexplained events. You can turn back now or learn. Stop. They don't shoot a production of. I hope we, hello will come back to the show. My name is met. My name is no. They called me then we're joint, as always, with our super producer, all mission control deck and, most importantly, you or you you are here, and that makes this the stuff they don't want you to know. This is far too of what may be the continuing series, We recently had a great piece of correspondence from fellow conspiracy realist who asked about the world's most dangerous prisoners which lead to

far reaching conversation in part, one where we ask for your help, fellow ministers, and in that episode assume we we through a little bit of a curve all at the very end. We talked about First, we talked about a super villain level. Folks, like the lake tat, his end ski also called the unabomber. We talked about free, the nature of humanity toward the end, but we teased something. We said: how do you define. dangerous. You know I mean I think when, when most people think of something and individual criminal as being dangerous, you think of stuff, like a serial killer, a terror the cereal, a soldier and arsonist. You know someone with perhaps tremendous mental issues right or perhaps someone who is simply evil, but, as it turns out,

the powers that be authoritarian governments, military regime, so on the folks they consider the most dangerous are often not considered a threat due to violent activities. But instead, for their revolutionary ideas. Here are the facts: the? U S, department of state estimates that their quote current more than a million political prisoners. around the world. So what are we talking about when we say political prisoners, political prisoners? You ve heard you ve heard the freeze before you ve heard it applied to journalists. Do further. It apply to rival pilot since you ve heard you ve, actually you heard people in the united states. Prison system described themselves as political prisoners, unthinking folks me Abu Jamal, the internet, in all community considers political prisoners to be people who were held without just cause, often because they exercised

they consider basic human rights, freedom of expression, peaceful protest, stuff like that, do not try to. Burn down the capital of their country, but they are trying to protest peacefully. Maybe they defended the rights of others or maybe they published a whole expos a about a small two billion dollar, a state that putin knowns her, yes yeah, oh boy, And they may have organised an opposition party world, You said they may have reported on abuse corruption. They may have been saying some of the things that the people in power would rather the public. Not no. I didn't for most of us listening today, things that we named, or not a reason to lock somebody up right or to sentence them to a gulag or or the horrors of the local prison system, but it gets worse. she gets worse in places like the deep parquet north korea. They call it here. Are you

be considered dangerous, not due to your activities, but do too The activities of a family member up to leave her generation, you are guilty by association and off to the camps you go and in places like china, you don't not not gone east asia here, but in china, you're ethnicity may put. You under suspicion of the survey when state ray you're a little too into the idea of an independent tibet right or in the case of the weaker western china engineering, you ve been japanese american during world, or two in the pacific conflict. Right again, not a glass house, glass, planet and people can work. Be imprisoned for dangerous religious beliefs or not just talkin bout extremists demagogues or or colt leaders like Charles manson, who actually guenaud, sent folks to kill. People were talking

people were just following their own belief system in parts of the world where unapproved religions are seen as threats, national security or stability. I mean recently made in the past, We did an episode on Shen Yun and fallen gone, and we also did another sit on it quite recently in reading whose history and fur long is. A dangerous religion to follow or dangerous belief system, the following mainland china. So when you say dangerous Ben what talking about here? What makes these folks and their ideas such a threat that they would be deemed dangerous, weird man, it's kind of a year mileage may very situation, isn't it I you we'll be seen as a source of potential chaos right, one one of my old professors with chinese

national and then taught at west point for many years before he went to some other institutions. He he was, very clear in saying that that the struggle of the pr see right now and the communist parties, I know, is to maintain cohesion right to maintain stability, and it's something that the middle kingdom has struggled with historically over thousands of years, so anything that can be seen as supplanting that were leading to a secessionist activity, is clamp down aggressively zealously and again, you know new countries really immune to the secessionist activity. It's it's funny. This statistic doesn't get bandied about too often, but you

you'd be surprised to learn. Maybe if you live in the? U s that at any given time, there's something like a hundred to two hundred groups, I consider themselves secessionist. We ve got what we had one at least ear stuff. They want. You knows home state of georgia holly of the sovereign state of georgia and we talked about the show print their licence plates they all signs and their houses that say you care enter here you're an agent of the u s. This is sovereign territory and fortunately, as these groups often were in a court of law, putting up the sign. Does it help? It say when people put that post on face look that said hey by posting this I'm saying facebook can't do anything with my data. I don't think they kept mark Zuckerberg up at night. I don't know what keeps that happening. There may be the future of the metaverse, where there is

sovereign citizen or a man claiming to be a sovereign citizen who was recently he just got sentenced. He struck one should people with his vehicle and he just got sentence, it was our gosh. What's his name, is it darrell brooks Zack, correct, darrell brooks this is news to me at was one of parade. Crash of usable aid? Crusher and throughout the entire process. tat of being and trial. He was basically say: You have no jurisdiction over me for various reasons. Kind of going up the works of the trial, and he just got scented still, I a crap ton years in prison. I think it's slick six life since sentences or something oh, I'm just reading about this. Now. How did I miss this darrell brooks christmas parade attack yeah sovereign citizen is something that people will bring up and many people who have used that

Hence in the u S, prison system will go on. To betray themselves as political prisoners right in ordered case of people are considered dangerous because of their Ideologies are these folks, not necessarily hoodlums there. well. You know they're? Not out bombing parades or markets there, not our hijacking aeroplanes are assaulting people from their perspective there fighting for what they see as basic human rights.

Hi, I'm Natalie emmanuel from ramsey in fast and furious sunday in game of thrones. I've loved playing roles of women whose resourcefulness, intelligence and inner strength are pushed to the limit. We will continue to do everything possible to avoid an armed conflict. The situation is grave, one in history class. We all taught the stories of great wartime leaders, but the stories have all he's been about man. Now, for the first time, we listen to a new posts, That brings you the stories of the thin as powerful women leaders, war, queens plea. I dream finer separately from prepared to defend what was just gain our freedom and our very being joined the door to father history, team of Emily and John Jordan every week as we bring you the stories of extraordinary leaders, war queens, all of them

regions, work means on the iron radioactive gas wherever you get your guest. Here's where it gets crazy to link to your point All these folks were going to talk about. Have one thing in common: there India's or the primary reason that they are locked up. They did shoot me body: do you rob anybody? They came out and said: hey. I think this politician is corrupt or hate. I feel like we shouldn't stone people to death stuff like that I am maybe maybe we start with the first examples from

The government of south sudan, this guy peter by are a jack, is out now, but from twenty eighteen to twenty twenty. This economist in peace activists was locked up due to your frankly kangaroo. The core trial in notorious sudanese prison, and, as is the case with a lot of these types of folks, a very learned man with a degree from Harvard also worked for a time at the world bank, just like the iron bank of our western rose the thick guy too late. There that's the world bank's its own conspiratorial bag, badgers civil war put that to the site for now and and focus on agent, is his activism rubbed the power structure, the wrong way so ease in the airport in July, twenty eightth to them?

eighteen, the jubilee international airport and he is arrested. He is literally, monopoly style do not pass go, do not collect two hundred dollars shipped off with no war, it no not even a verbal explanation. Right just get here now were taken. You Take him to a place called the blue house. He doesn't see a judge I for quite in time and when he finally does see a judge, they put him in lock up and It probably would still be there if he did not have western connections. If there were various western powers thirteen diplomatic pressure to get him out part of a larger sea change in south sudan at the time said: okay, we were too many. People are dissenting right, they're going against the party line, so the best way to do this is either to address them.

concerns and maybe improve our government or we just arrest. Everybody Well, yeah our silence the loudest voice for seventeen months. You know I put them in a hole, so he can't foment anymore. Against the current system. Who he was released on January. Second, twenty twenty, but, as will see another agenda we don't know what. How long that release will last a lot. if, if you looked at political prisoners on paper they will look like they had a ladder recidivism by which I'm going in and out of the prison system. Another one another example would be belarus. This there's a weird one:

Your belarus is in the news a little bit more in the west. Now, because of its connection, is a vassal state to russia, but for many people you really think about belarus. Are far away from those folks experience unless they live in the region around family in the region, but it is definitely the authoritarian regime run by Alexander lukashenko, who is the president technically the president, but functions as as it tater, so this is the case of maria Kalis nikobob. I'm fine, This will not need of speakers I listened to carve up is a political activist fighting. the authoritarian regime of belarus through protest and she was rest. For a series of mass protest. She did in twenty twenty. She organise these. She led them. I've seen it on the news actually because did make international news

last year she had sentenced to eleven years in prison. Western countries, you know again, they raised kane about it. If you would, the belarussian perspective you see they dont consider her. You know like these consider her a Bernie sanders around Paul or someone who will be considered on just like a different side of a political spectrum. They think she's a spy, yeah, but essentially working for nato ripe paved paid. Do we need to do destroy the current regime, or at least the- discredit enough to wear the nato power the western powers would be able to swoop in with their own appointed people, people they choose to then run the new government, and then they, just be a tool or an arm of nato and extract the resources right rinsing repeats the way, isn't even allow crazy

that's the thing like it's? It's not a story that they originally made up. Aids happening right now in latin america is happening on the african continent. You know the. the opium wars, are another great example in china route. Will the global west, has a track record. You know what I mean so this is. If you are, in belarus. You can see how that that feels like it might have some sand. The problem is that convenient accusation to give someone and to lock them up, because there's not a way to falsify that claim right. The western governments been accused of. This are not going to come out and say daring, guys, you gotta get game game. Will we

Better spies really has so well we'll see you next year, keep sending your kids to our ivy league collar right. We have seen that does happen, and the world bank and the world bank impatient was of our western. That's a good phrase. So so yet the the west obviously disagrees with this. And something really interesting happened recently. This act in this one was called the laughlin hobble human rights prize, she wanted, while she was imprisoned and MR had to accept the award on her behalf, This is a annual award primarily in europe, it goes beyond european borders, which gives the equivalent like sixty thousand euros, as as the ward and it honors outstanding in civil society action in defence of human rights, I mean how we hear about so many political prisoners

doing some of their best writing or our best most influential work. while incarcerated, yeah a hundred percent, Nelson Mandela was a political prisoners. As well, then we can world bring ordinary, can you darling oranges, one hundred million dollars from baisers stay prison dolly we love. Straight. You know what sally has been through a lot. Maybe it's time she cleans up her act. I love this notion that she's going to sweeps to some guy she wants, there's a war you some miles? I also think that you mean that news was very interesting re right before him john, came under fire and had all these massive problems. Also, I'm just gonna say it: it's sort of want, be the canary spirits, coal, mine here, mazarinist dangers to give dolly partner million dollars white. What is she going to do that she's unhinged, no nourishes actually

not just saying this, because I have family in tennessee that she is holding them hostage. I am saying that you know she does a lotta good work. In his excellent musician, gives kids free books all the time. Others much bad. You can say about her, but what I'm saying is its dangerous in my opinion, for some feels off about baisers purse We give in these words the way that I don't know if you paid the way for a private entities supplanting the role of the state. That's that's why and look private industries have awards right. That are quite substantial and I just I don't know some Those off about it? But maybe I'm just made and being overly cynical anyway

Surround your real, because no, no, not at all, not at all, not at all we're not derailed, because we are talking about these these awards international words can be weapon. I strike their part of diplomacy, their meant to make a statement. That's why people get the nobel peace prize. Even if you know there might have been better candidates, like it was tremendously controversial, win former president Barack Obama got the nobel peace prize and folks abroad were asking some very serious questions about you a substantial rhythm abroad. You know and interventions right what are the highs, drones bro right? What about the droughts and what about the intervention? don't make the news unless something goes wrong right unless the black hawk goes down. So this is where, because one thing is stands out is calls Nicholas sister. I says this is just one:

hundreds of political prisoners were kept in belarus in jails in awful conditions under what she called false? Pull Italy, motivated accusations, and just these two thou sudan in belarus. There are only two examples of a huge in and sleep disturbing trend. who are tearing regimes have always actively locked up dissidents. That's all everybody knows about that, but now the powder is accelerating at a pace it's not been seen since the height of the cold war, the trend- all who seem set to continue things are going to get Harry as as the year go on right now. not even counting journalist, really two journalists with the euro the next episode of most dangerous jobs, may well need to focus on journalist, who is that poor fellow that got beheaded cash oggie? Also there there was dead Daniel pearl. I believe wall street journal reporter was beheaded

on videotaping pakistan, and that was so that really made up huge international impact, because the video is just horrific and was floating their yeah he was be headed by a terrorist group brightly yet again What is a terrorist group, if not sort of a sub governments in and of itself, like in certain countries their attempting to take over then their organised, like a government, you now in terms of their their structure, yeah I know it's a really good point. Ultimately, alot of terrorist groups want to take on the role of the state, just like a lot of big corporations, brought it back seriously be aware. You know yourself, why it's possible for someone in south korea to be a born in his samsung hospital b, the career where they spend their life working for samsung and then see die and be buried in his hamson funeral amazon

now. I know I know messages to the void, but Journalists are also being targeted increasingly by Eight level actors there are laws standing cases specula of cases of journalists being forget it here in the united states right folks, like gary web or banning castle arrow I, but there are absolutely proven cases of journalists being targeted in other countries, island sovereign of, was just we like this year, this pass up timber ex journalist, sentenced the twenty two years in russian prison odd due to charges of treason? And then you know, there's journalists who become faces of political opposition like laval, ne who is some is some are still alive.

you know this is a larger pattern. There is a conspiracy he a play and we found some numbers to support this? Oh yeah? We can, jumped to the committee to protect journalists who, in turn Twenty one found quote the number of voters jailed for their work, hit a new global record of two hundred and ninety three, which is up from a revised total of two hundred and eighty in the year, two thousand and twenty, which doesn't Unlike a lot Will you consider these be who are not being targeted for their ethnicity, their not being targeted necessarily for their political activism there being targeted based on their profession, right, you know it's interesting to me. This is a little bit different by this case with the w and be a basketball player, brittany, greener,

who was arrested, for you know what would otherwise likely be mine infraction with like a vapor cartridge or something like that of above a teach see variety. Is now it in cars. Created in a russian penal colony and because of this person's staff and profession and the conflict in ukraine, politically and and our opposition. To that you could argue this is April it. Prisoner, as well as his away for a government to kind of thumb, their nose at us a bit yeah. You use. You see that like a bash of a weird example. Just put this in perspective, the committee too protect journalist exists because journalist get targeted added. increasing pace at what, if what, if this aim think was happy were plumbers, you know what if there

they become an international nonprofit called the committee to protect plumbers, and they are the statistics on governments, governments targeting, imprisoning and executing or torturing plumbers. You would rightly think that's messed up because plumbers seem like they should be dangerous, they're doing needful work in a society in any society, regardless of what that society functions and ass. A result, given that mario Luigi in your king cooper, in which case Those are utter terrorists view and they need to be dealt with so the reason I'm using plumber example is apply that then to journalists. I I wish more folks would admit that journey. prison is a necessity in civilization, speaking truth to power

That is a necessity just as much as you need plumbers right, and I think that first off, I think, there's no such thing as a useless job at all, and we shouldn't denigrate people for their professions. We also hey. We shouldn't kill him because of those right, at least in this case, and will you buddy the reason why they buy is called the fourth estate, at least in this country. The brass right, because you can, you can wield massive power and you can, can an exchange depending on how many, the eyes and ears you can get on what you're writing. As a journalist right, I mean it's, it's a powerful position to have it you ve. If you ve got enough subscribers, readers are clicks or whatever will also can be compromised and leverage, and in its an open secret that especially before the advent of the internet,

the? U S, state, had a heavy thumb? to infiltrate the sorry I was so nice perfect is perfect. I want to hear the rest of the verse. Twenty four journalist at least, were killed as a result of doing their jobs in twenty twenty one. Eighteen others died in circumstances that she be J called quote two murky: to determine whether they were specific targets, which is in plain speeches. Them say we can't prove this, but were come on this list and just that accelerating trend of arresting political activists. This trend of detaining or murdering journalist, seem set to escalate governments across the world, regardless of what you think of them are all aware

that there is going to be an increasing struggle in the coming decades, because the consequence is past generations. Activities are going to hit heavy, it's already happening. And they need to maintain their grip on the levers of power. You know like that's, that's the most, important thing: if you are a dictator, you keep your people several steady diet, you make sure they are fed. You make sure or that they are fed food to keep them alive and well and loyal right, make sure they know they owe that food. You that you make sure you. diet of information that is curated ripe for you. To be able to maintain in a certain level of stability. What do you do when? there are massive waves of climate refugees right, leaving your place or coming into your border. What are you, what are you doing? when the arable land stops starts disappearing. What

you when you just can't find fish in the ocean. It happening. It's happening there. Where of it, and I believe that's port The reason why were seen these lockdown, coupled with the massive flow of information right that just didn't, exist everywhere I mean I guess a version of it existed when there were. when they were like, maybe twelve thousand humans, and they were roughly in the same place, and they could like kind of communicate with you know. Maybe that's like the first twitter I dunno, but now there are eight billion, a number which will decline by the way. I let let's talk about some one who are our top. Who are top journalists haters according to the numbers? Is china right, yeah we're not gonna get past customs man wagon if we had to do it or in china. Well we're not journalists we're just talking on likes right, and hopefully that's not a crime

I beg you to bend the way say so yeah, for the third year in a row as of twenty twenty one child, has been the worst jailer of journalists and I think, last year fifty were locked up again for doing their jobs, but mexico, is probably the most dangerous place for journalists. I remember we read a story, but then a long ago that in certain cities journals. Journalist was one of the most dangerous occupations you could have. Yet especially in places where the cartels are increasingly supplanting state right, they're, not gonna, lock you up, they are just going to kill you, and perhaps in slow way, to set an example right, so China, blocking them up an ivy harry about this. I wanna see where you guys think so, three years in a row

I believe it. It's probably an accelerated trend due to covered and and the centralized power structure, clamping down on coverage of covert No, when whole cities were being shut down when people are starving and their apartment buildings because they were physically not allowed outside journalist reporting on that further foment domestic descent and they also spread the news right if someone's trying to control the news- and you don't want people in nearby city- be to know the city, I just got locked down right to reasonably expect that they'll be next on the list. Then you want to get rid of the people who could tell city be, or you know people know the economic bottom is falling out right away when I believe, like the lesson the infrastructure everywhere as much as we can all think Who else is analysed wells?

Well, Myanmar actually jumped to the second spot. In the last after amelia crack down there that follow its february first military coup. Then you have Egypt, viet and belarus which came up and earlier in the episode respectively, rounding out the top five. positions. Anyone depending on what happens in the next I don't know months years, russia might be up there. as somebody else like in opposition force to russia on one of these western countries might be up there. Who knows because, when that kind of conflict, troll information becomes highly highly crucial, yeah yeah. You know who probably won't get on that list. Saudi arabia, king

the kingdom is already established, is not about locking the journalist up. Why not just kill them, set an example and especially that trend will likely accelerate because Nobody did anything. There were no real consequences to the kingdom mama king, arguing that they did nothing wrong right, Don't just saw piece on that son ye and which I owe gosh guys. I don't know which direction we should go with, that future episode but I'm thinking you know we're what we're doing here were touching on a lot of things that are happening. their own in the future. We want to- let's listen pause for word from our sponsor and we're going to return and talk about one of the most complicated cases of recent political prisoners,

now streaming on paramount plus criminal minds, evolution all my years as a profiler. I studied killers, but I never studied what a pandemic would do to them. They started communicating to become better predators. The deeper you dig. These aren't just connected cases. This is a serial killing network.

hi, I'm Natalie emmanuel from ramsey in foster furious sunday in game of thrones. I've loved playing roles of women whose resourcefulness, intelligence and inner strength are pushed to the limit. We will continue to do everything possible to avoid an armed conflict. The situation is grave run in history class. We were taught the stories of great wartime leaders, but the stories have all he's been about man now for the first time we listen to a new newport cost. That brings you the stories of the thin as powerful women leaders walkways. We are driven by necessity, to prepare to defend what was just gain, our freedom and our very being joined, the door to father history, team of Emily and John Jordan every week as we bring you the stories of extraordinary leaders, war, queens, all of them

Legends of work means on the iron radio, on gas. Wherever you get your chest. Ok, it's a tough job to be president right. It's job to be. Prime minister, you have heard us go on record before saying we don't want those jobs. Most reasonable people, in fact, do not. I would imagine but imagine being a prisoner one year minister president, the next and after a few more years, gone back in prison is the story of on songs, She, the burmese politician, diplomat wit, with the ninety ninety one nobel peace prize, depending on the year, is either leading the government of myanmar or imprisoned by the government of myanmar,

Yeah tsuchiya spent nearly fifteen years in prison or in detention between nineteen, eighty, nine and twenty ten. All this due to a personal struggled to bring democracy to the then well, ruled me and mar which also known as burma, and she really became kind of nelson mandela, figure and turn, an international symbol of peaceful resistance in the face of oppressive regimes. Yeah, and you can just you- can does search the name on your browser of choice, and you will see how far back this roller coaster goes. I share spirit like this person was born in nineteen, forty five back in myanmar was still called burma and she came to our position.

based, partially honour, lineage she's the youngest daughter of Aung san was god considered father of modern day myanmar and she has been involved on the national stage, in a big way. Since the nineteen eighty She was in the once called the eighty uprising as it was awful. eighth nineteen. Eighty eight than she became a general secretary, her up recall the in d, and things were looking pretty good for them for a while that party, in the elections. Ninety ninety one them Or do you seats in parliament? Eighty one percent so picture in the? U s, Picture the idea of eighty percent of in being democratic or republican. It's it's an incredible majority

right, and it seems to reflect the will of the voters. Until the military came in and said, shut this party down. You know what I mean: stop stop everything. They did they put her on house arrest and then from the vote. Over a period of nineteen, eighty nine to twenty ten in that time period, who is locked up in her own house for fifteen years on and off and this made her one of the world's most prominent political prisoners. People have tried to killer multiple times she gets out of prison. She sends to power. The military comes back in law drop, the most recent news She was arrested. be wary of last year, most risk

We, along with other members in all the party- oh that's national league for democracy, site and military just keeps calling the elections jammed up in fraudulent when they don't win, sounds familiar da da da da da da da da da Da Da that it could happen here, and this is This is something that you probably heard the name a lot in the west, but I think this story is full of deep stream. business. The story, myanmar itself, I mean- There are a lot of reports and criticisms, especially regarding her stance on the genocide of the ruhinga via the massacre thereof that scene. indicates, might not be entirely the hero Western media portrays or ass were not saying she's a villain were saying, there's more to the story, almost always with these kind of it. There might be a little bit of mother teresa

who for decades in decades right was was regarded as an almost supernatural force had benevolence until the real story started to cover and again This is not at all saying that Aung san suu kyi is a bad faith, actor anything like that. It's just I we need to do an entire episode on this political prisoner, in particular, what he s neck out for sure. you know. I want to do a whole episode on is He used to be called a trap brown and have to wrap my brain to figure out And jamal Abdullah of dollar Jamal I mean really fascinating case and its base year in atlanta. I think

you do not sit on that. Cause he's been in prison for a while, but it seems like. Maybe didn't do what he is accused of its kind of unknown thing, but he still in prison. I'm just like It now pretty reese. Well, I guess pretty recently, I so he is he's been convicted of shooting two deputies in the year. Two thousand! Yes, yes do it.
