Samir Amin: The US imperial project is to destroy the Arab nations

Sourced from Newsclick website based in India. (I recommend that you skip the rather long-winded introduction by starting at 2:25m into the video, thus reducing its length from 15:01m to 12:36m.)
Professor Samir Amin in conversation with Aijaz Ahmad on the realignment of the reactionary forces -- the US and NATO, the Monarchies in the region, and Israel. In his view, the Islamists -- either in Turkey or the Muslim Brotherhood -- are part and parcel of this reactionary block.
Amin gives provides an excellent overview of various imperial interests that are driving the war crimes and the destruction of countries in the Middle East.
