Prof. Jeffrey Sachs at the UN-- Peace is possible!
Sachs exemplifies a fatal dichotomy in American society. As one of the world’s great nations it has its share of brilliant academics and scholars. Tragically their wisdom, insight and knowledge....
Important Note to Readers: There are many degrees of censorship. With the above video we are seeing one such example. Usually when I insert a video you have direct access to it. On this one you have to go to YouTube directly. They don’t want websites to simply cut and paste the content. In other words they are limiting access and wider distribution. The reason I think they are limiting access to this video goes to the importance of what Jeffrey Sachs has to say—peace is entirely possible, as you will see once you watch it.
You can imagine how exponentially the audience grows when a link is passed around to an important video, and this is one.
I know from my analytics most readers do not follow links or video links. This is more important than ever now as we are at war with the corrupt mainstream media that has massive resources to propagandize the public. Sharing, knowing and understanding is more important than ever.
We live in a crazy bizarre world where our true leaders and sages are denied their voices being heard and the charlatans, traitors and incompetent dominate the media. In the above picture we see Genocide Joe Biden giving Bibi Netanyahu a paternalistic hug at the airport on his arrival in Israel October 10th. Instead of giving him a hug he should have read the riot act to him. After bragging about being the first president in a war zone he left town giving little Bibi, the serial murderer, the presidential seal of approval to do whatever he wanted and the slaughter went on and on.
If there was ever a time a president should have acted decisively, he proved why he never should have been president in the first place. After 50 years in politics he is totally captive to the criminality of the empire and completely insensate to humanist values and the rights of others. His soul is totally corrupted and incapable of empathy. In his vaporous mind his presidential hugs are meant to show empathy, while his very being reeks of deceit and a rapidly failing consciousness.
For months the world was treated to the huggery of the US President and Ukrainian President Zelensky as the latter was the puppet proxy for another of the empire’s wars. It was only a matter time before the war was lost, the puppet thrown under the bus, and genocide is the newest atrocity.
By condoning this hideous genocide the shock waves are ripping through Western governments and the casualty list is mounting. He has destroyed his party and any chance of a Democrat being elected president, while greatly enhancing the chances of another Trump victory over another despotic Democrat.
Mean while,back at the UN General Assembly, economist Jeffrey Sachs is making a perfectly rational and credible presentation on how there are four wars now being fought world and how peace can be achieved. Sachs is one of the world’s most prominent and eminent experts on sustainable economies. He has traveled the world throughout his career, as consultant to governments, and an eye witness too many key events leading up to the present world crisis. Sachs is a powerful voice for peace and rationality, and like many others he is one of America’s best and brightest.
Sachs exemplifies a fatal dichotomy in American society. As one of the world’s great nations it has its share of brilliant academics and scholars. Tragically their wisdom, insight and knowledge is relegated to the margins where they are black listed by the mainstream media which is the dupe of the empire— you won’t see Sachs on CNN any time soon.
Where his presentation to the UN should capture national head lines it is “hidden” exclusive to YouTube. This is how the empire controls the narrative, by suppressing freedom of speech and truth. It insidiously allows “teasers” of truth to penetrate the propaganda wall to keep up the illusion and trappings of democracy, where there is none.
America is so obviously locked in a death spiral where those in power think war, violence and endless belligerence are its salvation; when in fact these accelerate its demise. It is so painfully obvious its only salvation is to repudiate war, and pursue peace, rationality, and rebuilding its democracy and prosperity. As it is the false prophets and insurrectionists prevail.
I am a born skeptic and tend to see the 'glass half empty'. By this I mean to say that so many people have held all kinds of speeches (for the good of all of us) and yet...almost nothing happens or is allowed to happen. We are in urgent need of a world-wide social revolution...with guillotines and all.
Excellent analysis, imho. Thanks!
