Peter Dale Scott: ‘American Foreign Policy Dictated by Amazing Ignorance’
The US corporate superstructure conglomerate – including financial interests, the defense industry, oil companies and the media – brazenly manipulate American society, shares Peter Dale Scott, former diplomat, poet and prominent anti-war advocate.
Editor’s Note: Peter Scott makes an important point at 11.58 of this video. He points out that during the Vietnam war, there was “a very strong and powerful anti-war movement” in America. He goes on to mention why no such movement exists in America today. “We have nothing like that in America now, largely because the Pentagon has so carefully strategized how to prevent an anti-war movement from emerging.”
