"Economic hit-man" John Perkins tells fascinating behind-the-scenes stories of exactly how the US-based corporate empire imposes its will (& greed) on developing countries. This week he tells of the REAL reason the US invaded Panama & overthrew Noriega in 1989. Plus Perkins' (and the Empire's) great success in Saudi Arabia--a "success" that ensured future disasters.
Recorded live in 2005 and never before broadcast.
Recorded by John Schwenk on January 10, 2005, in West Hartford, CT. Many thanks to John for the recording--which I have slightly condensed for radio broadcast.
