Bill Moyers: The Secret Government
Yet another tidbit of history here or below that shows your government running rough shod over nations that cannot fight against it. It is done in your name and mine and against you if you dare to challenge it. Howard Zinn's mantra to me: In war always ask who benefits and why. Millions of lives are at stake and millions more have already been lost. It is the moral obligation of our time to do so before our time runs out.
This Youtube was shown in 1987. It applies two fold to our time.

If you think Donald Trump is the answer to our corrupted government think again. He will, if god forbid he wins, be the same as usual except on steroids!
