Note: Rockwell mentions The Power Elite.
this isn't an accidential term. this is a term used by C. Wright Mills in a scientific study of the power brokers of the U.S.
everyone should read it.

Alex and Lew are two of the leading power elite analysts around. Great that Lew's becoming a more frequent guest on the show

have you read C. Wright Mills, The Power Elite?
what is interesting is that Mills is basically a socialist- who was interested in the how the power centers of this country worked. he followed the people in government and found that all the leaders of government were people who were also heads of corps and military industrial complexes, they just rotated positions. meaning only a handful of people ever had their hands on the many levers of power.

I'm not entirely surprised by that. Orthodox socialists generally resent hierarchical power structures (such as the bourgoisie or elites vs the proletariat). "Left" anarchists like the anarcho-communists take this to the logical conclusion that the immorality of States comes from the fact that they allow upper classes to exploit the labor of lower classes. (at least, this is how I currently understand it from the bits I've read about it)

He's all but come out and said he believes 9/11 was an inside job. I know he has distributed conspiracy theories about it on his website

Thanks. PErhaps somebody should go shove a camera in his face and force him on record on the subject.

He would probably say that the investigation was bogus, the official story was a lie and say it's a toss-up between either conspiracy or massive government incompetence. He's been known to call 9/11 'government failure day'

Doesn't "collateral damage" also include damage/destruction of property in Newspeak?

I don't think there is anyone honest, who has actually studied the evidence and events surrounding 9/11, who is not a truther. The proof is all there.

Comparing the US Gov to the Mafia is absurd.

Almost everyone knows that the Mafia understands Respect.

So you think he is truther but he is choosing to provide cover for the people guilty of orchestrating the event?
