I notice many Americans freak out when they hear the truth about what their country does and get in big time denial.

Once used to be very pro-American, I am tired of American empire bullying the world.

Glad to meet you Professor Sachs, after listening to you, no wonder you are a professor and an economics highly sought after from the White House to leaders of foreign countries to seek out for your advise. You're not only a brilliant man but a man of justice for everyone and country. 👍👍👍

To simplify this broadcast, the military-industrial complex is in charge of U.S. foreign policy.

Prof. J. Sachs, forsees the reality and he knew exactly the western narrative and he speaks with no holds barred...and thats what i admired and respect him so much.

ALL AMERICAN AND EUROPEAN PEOPLE NEEDS TO HEAR THIS! So they are not too narrow minded! My respects to Mr. Sachs

On January 17, 1961, in this farewell address, President Dwight Eisenhower warned against the establishment of a "military-industrial complex.” Who is driving foreign policy and public opinion? Who is convincing our government to act against our and the worlds best interests? Follow the money.

I admire this man, he knows so much of international economics and politics.

Well said. But who listens to common humanitarian and economic sense when there are US corporations making billions out of conflict.

Jeffrey Sachs is still respected, which is amazing considering he does not parrot the narrative. Thank god for a voice of reason.

One of the absolute best explanations I've ever seen, exposing the U.S. hegemonic state, and within a 20min video! Thank you Mr. Sachs

I agree with Mr. Sachs, it is time for us to to stop thinking the world revolves around us, that we are just part of the world
