Who could argue with Vidal’s message? Here he has codified his long-standing theme. The United States is on a collision course with the similar histories of all empires.

My curiosity was piqued half-way through the Paul Jay interview published by Real News Media based out of Baltimore, Maryland, home of Alexander Brown the progenitor of Brown Brothers Harriman for which Smedley Butler said he hand been a corporate goon on three continents as a US Marine’and pacifying Central America for United Fruit.

Especially the word codified. And the last paragraph of the review.
