Good article. He always has an interesting point of view.

In the 21st century the war criminal US government has murdered, maimed, and dislocated millions of people based on lies and propaganda. Washington has destroyed seven countries in whole or part in order to enrich the American elite and comply with the neoconservative drive for US world hegemony.

Exhibit A of why libertarians are little more than stinking right-wing hippies who regurgitate leftist 60's propaganda.

The additional defenses of Russia and China remind me all too well of the SDS propaganda from the Vietnam era.

I’ve never heard an American make that remark before.
I hope he’s not right. We need to realize that is likely the way it appears to many outside this country.

In my opinion, the American people will remain serfs until they wake up to Revolution.

Well I still hold out hope for the Article 5 Convention.

“It is extraordinary that Trump’s advisers have not told him that Wall Street was deregulated back in the 20th century during the Clinton regime. The repeal of Glass-Steagall deregulated Wall Street. One source of the 2008 financial crisis is the deregulated derivative market. When Brooksley Born attempted to fulfill the responsibility of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission and regulate over-the-counter derivatives, she was blocked by the Federal Reserve, the US Treasury, the SEC, and the US Congress. “

I just knew the word "hegemony" was going to appear somewhere...

[Vendome]

I actually agree with many points he made....

Weird...

Didn’t read it. Is Paul still anti-American?

When my candidate doesn't win the election... "conquered people".
When the sun don't shine right..."conquered people".
When somebody cuts me off in traffic..."conquered people".
When I have to pay bills..."conquered people".

Zionist Multi Billionaire? This neo Nazi is complaining about Trump's Jewish influence (which is pretty insignificant)? Give Mr. Craig Roberts a rubber room -- not a forum on this website.

[uncitizen]

Isn’t PCR a neocon himself?

Good article. He always has an interesting point of view.
An overly dark assessment of our situation I think. However he is correct in citing the growing anger of the American people.

[Dr. Sivana]

Anyone who gives a political campaign $100 million dollars expect something in exchange,

Yeah, he wants to help the guy who won't throw Israel to the wolves to win. It probably doesn't hurt to have a guy a knows casinos as president. Adelson is not exactly an innocent dove, but his interests are transparent and benign compared to the alternatives.

I agree. Good points made in the article. Could very well be true that Russia and China are weaker than perceived.

Americans are a conquered people.

I disagree. Obama did not succeed in all of his goals. He did destroy the Democrat party, he did divide the races, but he didn't succeed in completely killing American capitalism. It's like a weed. Keeps coming back.

Mr. Roberts, just like all the rest, is underestimating Donald Trump, and the anger that exists in the American populace. Trump will win, resoundingly, and have a mandate to restore and rebuild the essential foundations that are admittedly teetering, but not yet razed to the ground.

We have survived Obama. But he won't go away, he will lead what's left of the Dem party, and in his delusion, wants to lead the world opposition to an American resurgence. He'll agitate, instigate, mobilize leftist masses, and seek to lead the world opposition, but he too is underestimating Donald Trump and the anger that will persist among the people.

We're going to be fine.
