Intelligence agencies are influencing governments and spying on countries with no regard for the law. And they are able to remain nearly invisible, in the process. Are they the new superpowers?
The last time intelligence agencies commanded as much power as they do today was during the Cold War. Technological innovations mean that more sophisticated warfare is now a reality. It is not just about Russia and the USA anymore. We may be entering a new era of unrest.
The U.S. has lost more spies and informants since 2010 than at any other time since the Cold War. Leaders of German intelligence agencies also acknowledge that they have once again fallen upon tough times. Money, data and access are proving to be major factors in determining who actually wields power. The 2016 U.S. election made this clear: U.S. intelligence agencies are certain that Russian intelligence helped elect Donald Trump.
But the U.S. has lost old spheres of influence and allies are increasingly pursuing their own agendas. Can President Biden make his country a force for order in the world, again? And what does that mean for political hot spots and potential conflicts with China, Iran, and Russia? And for allies like Saudi Arabia and Turkey? Will Western intelligence agencies regain the power they once exerted? Wars fought with drone and hacker attacks, increasingly delegated power, and surveillance could push these conflicts to their tipping point.

The enemies of humanity, they work for the corporate elite keeping the population down enslaved and impoverished. The elite are the only ones who in the end benefit from the activities of these thugs. State sponsored terrorism for the most part is what they are.
Invisible agents . I know Brian Lee Keith a pedo for the Government. Covert ghost perverting patrols . I made 15 reports on these terrorists & sexual predators
💝
The scariest part is that the people who made this documentary believe those stories.
Fact check: The ATF conducted the Waco siege-break. Not the FBI.
The UK has and is accepted to have, the most effective counter radicalising programmes.
As for Edward Snowden? Holed up in Russia. Nobody should ever understimate the blood on this cowardly sociopathic narcissistic piece of work. Both agents and officers have perished because of this emetic specimen.
Wow
06:56: How is a US van from the 90's in this footage?
CIA AND FBI ARE ARE MOST
CURRUPT
Since you consider the Palestinians who are resisting the Israeli occupation as terrorists, you should consider the Ukrainians who are resisting the Russian occupation as terrorists as well. There is no rule that says that countries and governments are not terrorists The United States of America is the largest terrorist organization in the world
Bin Laden was CIA. lol
…but why does the US and others still have nuclear weapons! Especially the US as the only country to ever kill populations which still suffer and die of those effects to this day!!! What about the fact that they can place an unstable nincompoop like Trump as commander in chief, not that only a Trump can drop another nuclear bomb, after all it happened without a Trump before!!!!
George Bush the devil himself 😈
It's very simple, u get what u give. Of course if u carpet bomb and kill millions of civilians people are going to want some type of revenge. Smfh dduhhhh
Military industrial complex is the biggest most blood thirsty gang
The translation from Hebrew into English is not correct.
Israeli propaganda documentary
I'd bury that Al Qaeda man alive myself…
these terrorists need some good old torture , don't deprive them of that! they look for it whenever they pick up arms
……There will never be peace in Israel or middle East or in the world we know that! they know that……
Why US supports PKK in Syria ? It is a terrorist organization recognized by US an EU for many decades.
Though this documentary (like many others made by DW) is spot on and very precise in it's outlook, the fact remains, that the White Anglo Saxon Protestants and their allies will not change their wayward imperialist ways, not after 400+ years. European exceptionalism will continue in aspects of war and genocide in Africa, Asia and Latin America for the sake of raw materials and cheap labour.
