" Interview with Dr. Paul Craig Roberts, former Assistant Secretary US Treasury, Associate Editor Wall Street Journal, Professor of Political Economy Center for Strategic and International Studies Georgetown University Washington DC.
Question: Dr. Roberts, the United States is regarded as the most successful state in the world today. What is responsible for American success?
Dr. Roberts: Propaganda. If truth be known, the US is a failed state. More about that later. The US owes its image of success to: (1) the vast lands and mineral resources that the US “liberated” with violence from the native inhabitants, (2) Europe’s, especially Great Britain’s, self-destruction in World War I and World War II, and (3) the economic destruction of Russia and most of Asia by communism or socialism.

Thanks for picking up and linking my post, AJ. IMHO Paul Craig Roberts is one of the most knowledgeable and insightful commentators out there -- which is why he has been banished to the "alternative" media.
ReplyDeleteBy the way, that is some powerhouse commentary of your own above. All applause from these quarters. You are only stating what so many others feel.
Hi TR,
ReplyDeleteIf only I could remember to visit your excellent site more often - I visit so many - always something worth looking at.
Yes - thanks for the encouragement - I'm in a lull now - just thinking - sometimes I feel horrible for speaking the truth because I know it causes pain for others at times - but it's what I have to do.
Can't seem to get writing for some reason.
Thank you for coming by the site.
