2nd of two parts. Antiwar and antinuke activist Bruce Gagnon argues brilliantly that the main purpose of endless US wars is to enrich the military-industrial complex and the rest of the oligarchy.
This week's installment focuses on the US's increasing corporatism and militarism . . . and on the military's grand plans to control the heavens and earth alike. Includes 2 good Q&As from the lengthy Q&A session.
See "Notes" for further details.
