On October 12 in Okemos, Michigan, at the invitation of “The Ideas Group,” I gave a presentation on the world wars—the deceptions that led us into the first two world wars, how the motives behind those wars interconnected, and how they interconnect to events of today, including the potential for another world war. About half the video is of my PowerPoint, and the second half is Q & A. A high-tech friend of mine has kindly inserted my slides into the video, adding clarity. As I explain at the start of the presentation, I almost didn’t get to give this talk, due to a sudden and rather suspiciously timed loss of my computer’s hard drive.
