Original Bill Cooper - - Our Illegal War

The episode, titled 'Original Bill Cooper - Our Illegal War,' is a fiery, unfiltered critique of U.S. foreign policy, particularly the NATO bombing campaign against Yugoslavia in 1999. Host Bill Cooper, known for his conspiracy-laden and constitutionalist rhetoric, argues that the war was unconstitutional, illegal, and orchestrated by a globalist elite to establish a New World Order. He asserts that President Bill Clinton bypassed Congress entirely, delegating the authority to declare war to NATO Secretary General Javier Solana—a foreign official—thereby violating the U.S. Constitution’s separation of powers. Cooper cites Congresswoman Helen Chenoweth’s damning analysis, which details how the war was launched without a formal declaration of war and how NATO’s actions violated both its own treaty and the UN Charter. He further claims the Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA) was a Marxist, drug-trafficking terrorist group backed by Iran and Osama bin Laden, making U.S. support for them morally and legally indefensible. Cooper frames the conflict as part of a broader pattern of U.S. imperialism, citing the bombing of Sudan’s El Shifa pharmaceutical plant as evidence of American war crimes. He condemns the media as a propaganda arm akin to Nazi Germany’s Goebbels, and calls for citizens to reject state narratives, investigate truth independently, and defend their rights—even at the cost of their lives. The episode culminates in a radical call to action: if freedom is not worth dying for, it is not worth having.
