JFK Fact Podcast #114: Jeffrey Sachs on JFK and Empire
My interview with the Columbia University economist who wrote the book on JFK's peace speech.
It was refreshing to get to know Jeffrey Sachs, trenchant critic of the American crisis. “The political system has collapsed into one-person rule,” he said last month. After a long and winding globalist career, he is analytical and wry, precise with the Big Picture. “So how did we get here?” I asked him.
Sachs is the author of “To Move The World: JFK’s Quest for Peace.”
Highly recommended for JFK Facts readers.
CONGRATULATIONS, Jeff, on snagging Jeffrey Sachs for this timely interview on the anniversary of JFK's Peace Speech. I just watched it twice, and have sent it to a host of friends and colleagues, timed to the 18-minute point, where the real action begins. He is such a wonderful scholar and human being: warm, erudite, poetic, and eminently reasonable. His overview validates everything I wrote about the Peace Speech and what happened to JFK in Volume 5 of my own book, INSIDE THE ARRB. It was very refreshing to hear Jeffrey Sachs speak about the 1963 event that destroyed the faith of Americans in our government, and indeed our system of government, in such honest, commonsense terms. Quite a contrast to the mainstream historian I had sitting next to me at the LUNA hearing on May 20th---someone who will not discuss evidence in the JFK case, because in her mind anyone opposing the Warren Commission's conclusions is a "conspiracy theorist."
An excellent choice for an interview. Sachs provides tremendous insight. I’d be up for Part 2 where Sachs gives his thoughts on why U. S. Intel resists full disclosure. I’d like to hear Sachs respond to Wm. Whitten’s claim that the same forces that killed JFK attempted same on Trump’s life.
