From our archives: "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 and overthrew Noriega in 1989. Plus Perkins' (and the Empire's) great success in Saudi Arabia--a "success" that ensured future disasters.
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.
