"In the midst of all the pain, oppression, and lack of meaning in life, the Church must proclaim the answer that is provided to us so clearly in Scripture. It is simple. We must be loving like Jesus in this fractured world."

In 2001, John Perkins told Black college students: don't flee your neighborhoods once you get your degree. Go back.

I was in that room. Here's how that one challenge shaped the next 25 years of my life.

How an Economic Hitman helped Iran gain control of the Strait of Hormuz in the 1970s.
www.johnperkins.org/blog/how-i-h... .

#JohnPerkins | #EHM | #Iran | #IranWar | #Hormuz | #StraitOfHormuz | #TrumpsWarOfChoice | #TrumpsWar .
By John Perkins. I spent time in Bandar Abbas on the Strait of Hormuz in the 1970s. My company, Chas. T. Main Inc. (MAIN), was hired by the Shah (at the Pentagon’s urging) to help develop a massive military base there that gave the Shah (and presumably the US) control over this strategic waterway. It turned out to be a terrible mistake. Today Bandar Abbas is the location of Iran’s First Naval Zone, major ports, and branches of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. The Iranians have used the military base we developed to shut down the strait. The below is excerpted from my book The Secret History of the American Empire (published in 2008 – slightly edited for context): I joined two MAIN engineers, Frank and James, on a small plane from Tehran to the remote ancient oasis town of Kerman, the gateway to the Dasht-e Lut desert, which I was told was the hottest place on earth. It was midsummer; although late afternoon, the heat was stifling.

John Perkins - The Economic Hit Man.
Have you ever heard or read about a former economist who claims he wasn’t paid to invade countries; he was paid to convince them to surrender willingly instead.

Here is how America has liked to used a monkey suit and board rooms to devastate peoples, nations & economies, the guy who did it.
So when they wage #economicwarfare against countries, they know exactly the 4W1H to extract "America First".

Trump did not need to invent a new system. He inherited one already perfected over decade; one that rewards those who understand how to manipulate perception, manufacture fear, and turn people against one another
