Victor Davis Hanson -- The New Old World Order

[@markwilliams974]

Remember that this was 9 years ago. Nobody did a damned thing about Mexico or China until Trump came into office. You may not like him but at least he recognized the issue and has been trying to sort it out.

[@themajortom69]

Almost 10 years on, I don't think I have ever seen an interview age so well

[@DR_Neal_Rigger]

Nine years later, and Victor Hanson is still spot on..

[@tdk3654]

Hanson is a heck of a lot more observant than a lot of the so-called experts in Washington.

[@patriciakimball8150]

Still good 11 years later-and relevant!

[@edding8400]

I live in the Netherlands, and I have to say the things he says about Rotterdam and immigrants is 100% true.

[@miguelmartinez8828]

edding8400 no

[@Kalleri13]

True for The whole of sweden as well

[@budybradley8257]

Victor Hansen is a national treasure.

[@10laws2liveby]

This interview was in 2014 it is not 2019 Mr. Hanson proves to be able to predict the future. For me, the problem is I have to continually stop this interview to think about Mr. Hanson comments. He is such a thought-provoking intellect I need time to digest his responses.

[@geoffreybrockmeier3765]

Why don't more people watch stuff like this instead of garbage like CNN???

[@JoeJoe-ci5fs]

Geoffrey Brockmeier cause most people are moronic sheeople. Look at history and you'll see many examples. Your sentiments are shared by many of us. The few have always stuck their necks out for the rest.

[@tobyw9573]

CNN Garbage: People used to watch Bill Buckley, didn’t they? “Even “ Fox News thinks we need Hannity to explain this to us, LOL. Cannot fault Sean for not trying as hard as he can to learn and explain to us, though. Wouldn’t a Hannity-Hanson-Levin show be fun? Good metric too, to measure who tunes in and out according to “HHL” topic/intellectual level.

[@mattn6685]

Because it takes brain cells to process the understanding of history and its lessons as applied to our modern day. CNN caters to the lowest common denominator of the leftist mob, because most, if not all, of their current on-air "talents" come from that cesspool.

[@patrickwilber7470]

Can't get enough airtime

[@rocco1267]

Geoffrey Brockmeier not entertaining enough, makes one think too much? Convicts people on how much they don’t actually know?

[@literatious308]

9 years later. As relevant as ever!

[@gdurant]

Victor Davis Hanson is a national treasure. He just outlined the Trump success blueprint that has already been put in place.

[@brucebaur5670]

The man has his finger on the pulse of the free world. And his read is a most accurate one.

[@gypsyfirefly8009]

❤️❤️❤️There is no one like VDH! Its amazing how many posts of his wisdom there are on the net. And...it is incredibly relaxing to listen to his voice. What a privilege to have him in America‼️🇺🇸‼️🇺🇸

[@thecouchpotatocom]

Looking back 11 years later. He was right and predicted the mess we find ourselves in.

[@bluewrenreilly129]

Is it ok to say Peter Robinson you are a very nice man.Victor Davis Hanson is so worth listening to thank you so much for this interview.

[@annwaters9484]

It's been almost 10 years since this was recorded. I would love to see an updated conversation with VDH regarding the world today.

[@gariongarath3571]

It is disturbing that every potential problem discussed in this conversation has been magnified in the past 12 years to the point where it is no longer manageable. We are Rome circa 450 AD.

[@vickifischer-rasmussen3850]

I really enjoy listening to Victor. He learns from the past and suggests what the future may/could be. Worst of the immigration problem was about to start in 2010.

[@mr.bob4630]

A great show. Hanson is brilliant.

[@melanieshepler2340]

I learn more in an hour listening to Victor than I could have in a full semester. He's so quick with all the right answers. Almost prophetic. I keep thinking he would make a great presidential advisor. He knows how to win the respect of others who have differing opinions. He commands the direction of conversation with a calm forthright demeanor. HIS KIND of genius is sort of wasted by trying to educate millenials with his knowledge of history. Learning history is a way to avoid repeating our former mistakes, but so many see no value or use for it. They rather learn competitive gaming. Entertainment is the industry to pursue to be successful in our country these days.That and maybe a job having to do with pharmaceuticals.This is just my pesimistic oppinion.

[@candacecarboni2500]

This aged extremely well.. Wise men don't seem to run for office.. Would be nice if they were of a mind to do so..

[@garymcaleer6112]

Victor has the finest voice of this age without any evangelism. It's like 'ole Joe Friday from the TV series, Dragnet: "Just the facts, ma'am!"

[@dongaetano3687]

Absolutely magnificent interview. Can't say anything more. Thx much Peter, Victor, Hoover.

[@jmnage]

VDH is the man. I love his views on China and foreign policy in general.

[@friendlyone2706]

Scary how current this is almost a decade later.

[@dougiedorite8296]

VDH, is a wealth of historical knowledge. Important to note; This interview was BEFORE Obama's second term.

[@larrywuzhere3866]

This program makes me grateful for the internet

[@willy4018]

Exactly what is happening now, this man called it

[@ahope4u2]

Ephesians 6:12 King James Version (KJV) 12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

[@pelicanbird901]

How right you are, VDH! Decline IS a choice! Top quality interview, as always.

[@JohnRylander]

This is a great, highly insightful video--thanks, Peter and Victor. Keep it coming.

[@mikewilliams4947]

Listening in 2022. We now are seeing 700K plus come across the southern border A MONTH.

[@robw3027]

Although I know I should be reading VDH books, it is time well spent to listening to 4 or 5 of VDH's KZbin videos and be brought up to speed on the current issues.

[@calbacoller897]

A lot of difference between 2010 and 2019. We were a nation in decline back then. President Trump brought us out of the slough of despair. Elections matter.

[@afoose]

Jesus Christ. This was in 2010. Couldn't have been more prescient.

[@johnstockwellmajorsmedleyb1214]

Andrew Sickafoose Much love and peace fellow priceless life. Where were you in 2010? All life is priceless and Loved.

[@mlcblogmedia1156]

Brilliant.

[@jfphotography69]

Andrew Sickafoose history always repeats, it's the human condition.

[@davidd7940]

History is a theme that is played over and over again.

[@vcecogo2575]

Try watching lectures of Milton Friedman. His arguments cannot be more relevant to the present.

[@Mademoiselle_Co_]

Excellent show, interesting to compare these past discussions and see how accurate they are- More of this please.

[@Schwyndfst]

Mr Robinson's interviews are the best

[@tikipharm5957]

Two great minds. So prophetic, so relevant even today. Why aren't they in Washington as advisors?

[@citizen1114]

If I knew back in the sixties and seventies that I was going to subscribe to hear opinions from the Hoover Institute I might have gone out and shot myself. As it is, I'm glad that I didn't know that I was going to take the red Pill and wise up.

[@melanieshepler2340]

You must be my age

[@richardlovell7316]

Thomas Sowell and Victor Hanson should be on/in any President’s advisory board. They would not be good Presidents by they would be fantastic advisors.

[@josephlong6701]

A lot has changed in 8 years. Some of this has escalated to the state of emergency.

[@leonardolegorreta2855]

Comments on Mexico are spot on. Fast forward to 2016 and look at the mess in Oaxaca.

[@alankwellsmsmba]

And the new BMW plant in St. Luis Potosi.

[@melanieshepler2340]

Yep!

[@craigmartin5484]

This is awesome. VDH is a genius. This is almost a decade old, wow!!!!

[@aTruster]

"The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun".

[@LittleOrla]

Very thought-provoking. I enjoyed listened to Hanson.

[@AleadaA]

The EU has radically changed now in 2019 - they are very aggressive and detrimental to nations under them! In 2010 the commentator says the worst of the immigration problem is over - I laughed so hard I cried! Beautiful thoughts in the end of this discussion, thank you Victor Davis!

[@1911beauty]

This is one of my favorite shows. I walked into work today with you all playing in my shirt pocket. The secretary asked my what random Republican I was listening too

[@boards80]

damn this, guy is good at prognostication

[@Umdloti]

Great interview.

[@yes-z9727]

2022 and I'm just now hearing this guy.

[@anairenemartinez165]

40 years ago during Mass the Spanish Priest said free ENGLISH Classes to learn English. Now, the Church is offering SPANISH classes, free, learn to write and read Spanish.

[@KennethSee]

Good lord this man saw the future.

[@Agorante]

He casually remarks "when I read a Greek Newspaper". Not many people in the public eye can say that. For example I doubt if Joe Biden can read Greek.

[@budm.1450]

I believe the gentleman can speak six languages.

[@mattn6685]

Biden has trouble reading English, so learning to read Greek probably isn't high on his list of priorities.

[@thomasbroderick961]

Everything is Greek to Uncle Joe.

[@rael6974]

Always liked Hanson's analysis.

[@SeanSmithDash]

Another great and prescient performance by VDH. His defense of WW2 with Christopher Hitchens is excellent as well.

[@pauleviston714]

sean smith thanks for the hitch reference, it prompted me to that video, and was impressed at how they disassembled his thesis, and i had mild respect for some of his views, and gained a better perspective of ww11's political and psychological warfare

[@theofulk5636]

What a sophisticated title, and insightful commentaries. Great program.

[@GoCardinal2012]

because I think he actually reads the books he talks about. Most interviewers don't read the books they ask questions about.

[@sdunlap1583]

Listening to this in 2020

[@lorddigital4525]

Superb discussion!

[@alexhayden2303]

What's he talking about? ISLAM WILL NOT, CAN NOT INTEGRATE! RADICAL iSLAM? THERE IS ONLY ONE iSLAM!

[@BrianMulligan11]

Such a bright man.

[@703tony]

Thanks for sharing, Great conversation!

[@pastorrobbremer4466]

At the end of the interview it sounds like VDH was talking directly to why we needed someone like Trump. Fortunately we got him, at least for now, but Bernie and all his free stuff buddies still have their eye on the wrong goal! Pay close attention America, VDH just laid out the importance of re-electing Trump. Amazing the foresight from 10 years ago.

[@whycomes9562]

This guy was proved 100% correct.

[@franrushie1383]

VDH book on Trump was a great book.. I learned so many new words .. I need to read all his books on war…

[@joshmiller980]

"I'm reaching the age at which that matters." Lmao, Peter, you kill me.

[@thomassmestead6424]

America has been keeping Europe propped up since WWI. It's time for the Europeans to look to their own interests, on their own dollar.

[@Blaze936]

I think everything mentioned in this video is still an issue to this day, with some of them, like the Chinese and Russian problem, more pressing now than they were 6 years ago.

[@bighands69]

The rise of China is all down to the US stagnation on a global and economic scale.

[@MrBoreray]

@@MMWoodworking -- Maybe not too soon,basically depends on how long chinese people are prepared to work in sweatshop factories for $10 a day +with a non-independant judiciary(same as Russia)international business contracts are not worth the paper they're written on,i.e.-try suing a chinese company for copyright theft or brand plagierism,you can guess the outcome.

[@jangofet555]

everyone seems to be interested in genes. i like what he said at the end. "we think that were not gonna be good unless were perfect, and we are socially engineering predetermined results about human nature'. and i agree with the meritocracy.

[@mrhat6098]

Is Victor Hanson the smartest man in America today ?

[@jamesmurphy9105]

I am still waiting for the break up of the European Union

[@synon9m]

"China has a rendezvous with radical pollution problems, clean up, demographic problems. They’re foreign policy cooked up a nuclear Pakistan, nuclear north korea, russia, soon to be Iran and Taiwan. I don’t get this fascination with flying into Shanghai airport and everything looks great in a way that Kennedy doesn’t and suddenly they are avatars of the future. Get on a bicycle and go across rural china and compare that to Nebraska and see which society is more resilient and stable. "

[@anderander5662]

Stunning how this guy said this ....in 2010.!!

[@lubanskigornik282]

12 years later still relevant

[@roberttuss5349]

VDH: Immense intellect and foresight.

[@davetmcguire]

second time i've watched this. interesting insight into Mexican 'elete' and their social order. need to watch a few more times to really understand.

[@TheWirdbird]

The statements about the SW are sad and true. I grew up there; left in 2001 because I was fed up with the crap going on because of The Race, and the Reconquest folks. Sad thing, because when I was growing up there we were all happy to be New Mexicans. Now we are fractionalized -- very sad.

[@Hypedhopes19]

Better keep the Hoover institution bookmarked, i have yet to find a interview which bored me :)

Fast forward to 2022...

[@mikejones9961]

Pat Buchanan warned us in 1992

[@joycebenton9368]

I understand what does he mean and believe that it also very much make sense and reasonable too. I also believe that for those came very young and without choices with their parents ones who educated here and without any criminal records, we may let them to stay, if we can, because I worry they will have difficulty to adapt their new lives in Mexico again. Although I don't know politics much, however I learned and understand what are they talking about and believe that only very experienced researchers will understand that and being able to help people to understand why at the same time.

[@Antipodean33]

To think they were talking about Americans wanting to get out of Afghanistan, because they'd been there for 7 years and today it's what 18 years and still there, blows my mind

[@JohnDoe-wy1yd]

Victor Davis Hanson = time traveler.

[@terrymutant3581]

When you listen to Victor for a while you'll feel at lot of respect for him and for yourself and wonder why we have such a bad feeling about the idiot politicians of today .

[@Atombender]

Ugh why always comparing the USA to the whole of Europe? The former as a nation has only existed for a bit over 200 years and the country as a whole is naturally much closer tied together than even Italy and Spain. The thing is that the USA started as an immigrant nation, drawing millions of people from all over the world to a new land. This never happened in Europe on that scale, which has a much older cultural and heritage with more or less sharply defined borders.

[@mengelmoesNL]

Alex K. Because the European Union is an attempt at creating a federal state like the US.

Alex K. At the moment, the point of the EU is the absence of borders. As for the USA being from its inception a "nation of immigrants " drawing "millions of people " from all over the world... I believe the terms used here are somewhat inaccurate? 17th century British and Scottish or Scotch- Irish settlers did not come in the millions, etc. Dutch, Huguenot, and a very small percentage of other settlers- as they were referred to- constituted a fairly homogenous group, with major changes only occurring in the 18th century (slave trade) and large scale migration from other continents, particularly Asia, in the 19th century. 20th century migration is then again totally different.

[@COVIDpanic]

@18:24 - your question and statement are big topics today [8-19-2019] the illegal immigrant flow coming from Mexico has tripled in 2 years.

Please Peter! We need an update from VDH on this subject, "The New World Order", right now, September, 2022. It's urgent! We as a country have gone in exactly the opposite direction from what VDH advocated herein. Is there any hope? Particularly what is going to be the effect of these elitists immigrants from California to Texas and Florida, the righteous States? That's what I'm worried about now. Sorry for you and him, but you guy's domicile makes you somewhat tainted now. And you stayed, you didn't leave, so can't be granted any grace in the matter. Sorry, but it was your choice. If Texas succeds from this damnable union, which is certain to happen if we don't recapture the US House and Senate, the first thing we should do is make State citizenship sovereign and no one entering after the succession date could vote in any jurisdiction for 20 years, nor any of their offspring for 40 years. It will take that long to resurrect the educational system from its present state of putrefaction and decay. Anyway, thanks for what you do, albeit from the degradation of California.

[@christinakinne9790]

[@250txc]

Not liking the questions here, like why should America care about asia at the 10:06 mark? Yes they should support them but not 100%. ~Any other thoughts go against history AND just might be stupid. -- I do not and can not answer all these questions and Mr Hanson sounds like he has very good handle on this stuff.. I'm not clueless and at age 61, am cursed with a memory back to JFK days, so I am claiming wisdom and common sense... Those 2 reasons are why Mr. Hansons' answers sound on track to a high degree to me... I'll just add, with most all issues, ESP complex ones, common sense will have to play into the solutions in some manner. -- In the case of stupid leaders around the world today, all bets are off because a stupid person can not understand he is being stupid, because, ......he is stupid. PERIOD.

[@archivesDave]

Victor, I just signed up for your Hillsdale class and looking forward to it. Re your thesis here, I think the globe is presently in a 'holding pattern', and better yet, the concept of 'two steps forward, one step back'...I take it u'r very familiar with Quigley's T and Hope awa Anglo Amer Establishment. Would love to hear your take on all his prognostications which apparently have and are unfolding at our feet.
