    Excellent talk. Good to see that Parenti ties in the capitalist empire with psychological control and the coverups of 9/11 and JFK.

    He also explicitly warns people (and liberals) not to see US foreign policy as "inept" or "confused" but rather very intentional and imperialistic.

    Dr. Michael Parenti Tackles The JFK Assassination

    Thanks to http://www.radio4all.net/

    Part I http://www.yourbbsucks.com/forum/0314parentijfkone...

    Part II http://www.yourbbsucks.com/forum/0321parentijfktwo...

    When Oliver Stone's movie JFK opened in December 1991 a huge PR campaign was mobilized against the film. Even progressives spoke out. Noam Chomsky wrote in support of the Warren Commission's findings. In contrast Michael Parenti gave one of his highly acclaimed talks criticizing the lone assassin theory.

    The bitter questions that haunted defenders and critics alike was whether government agencies of a democratic country would do such a thing as assassinate an elected President.

    In this talk Michael Parenti turns to that question first. He examines, in part one, what he calls "the gangster nature of the state". In part two he goes over details of the assassination and critiques The Nation, The Progressive, Chomsky and Cockburn. He spoke in Berkeley, CA, on the 30th anniversary of the JFK assassination.

    This is one of many "standing ovations" talks by Parenti. The master for this program was lost and this appears to be the only copy of the original recording.
