John Pilger @ Socialism 2009: Obama and Empire

Author, journalist, film maker John Pilger speaks at Socialism 2009 (a yearly event which is run by SocialistWorker.org). He traces recent American imperialism back a few decades, and then shows us how Obama is a product of the very same school of thought as those leaders who have gone before him. Pilger says 'our friend' Barack also feels that the US should lead the World in every aspect, for the US's particular gain, rather than to make the World a better place for all. Filmed by Paul Hubbard
