Greg Palast: The Most Important Investigative Reporter You'v

[LanceCiepiela]

9/11 truth-not a hint, a cry'in shame for someone with Greg's abilities/sources.

[IXBhangXI]

Don't forget about his book "The best democracy money can buy"

I read it while deployed in Iraq. A true eye opener.

[klauwn17]

@IXBhangXI

You should check out "confessions of an economic hitman" by john perkins as well.

[nagillag1]

Anyone should read his book; Greg Palast - Armed Madhouse. Brilliant

[Neurolanis]

The only real journalist I know about, besides maybe Alex Jones (although he focusses just on conspiracies and does make assumptions.) Palast is the real deal, and so we call him "great", because real jouranlists like him are so badly needed in the world today...

[WNanette]

He spoke at the San Diego Unitarian Church in 04, and I didn't know about it?! Mr Palast is one of my hugest heroes! How was this publicized, please? I'm only 35 miles north. '_'

Have the Homeland Security goons dropped their lawsuit/threat against him for filming near that refinery?

Has ANYthing been done to Tom Feeney, Kathleen Harris or to the Vulture Fund guys, as shown over there on the right, please? -->

I wish this whole recording was available...

Thank you for booking him & posting this!

[freeinternetnow]

THIS GUY IS MADE OF EPIC WIN! freedom and truth to the people

[misayo85]

Helen Thomas and Greg Palast are the real ball-busting American journalists we need. The rest of the so called "journalists" are full of shit.

[KNOWYOUNOW]

President Bush is crooked evil president. Message to state troopers Next time you meet him arrest the shit president.

President of the Ultimate Shit American

[rclark23]

Thank you BBC and Greg Palast!

[bootmeusuck]

Greg Palast is for real! Where have all the true Americans gone ; whom once stood up for what is correct instead of being self-rightous-people ;who would sell there country,and freedom of speach ; (BUSHIST ) if you will?

[clarisd]

Can some give to the Iranian Pres, I know he can read it and it would be a best seller there as well also if anyone can please ask the middle east for help to free America

[jamesrobertdobbs]

Armed Madhouse is great. Read it today!

[Bo0ja]

Palast is the man. Everyone needs to get his book Armed Madhouse.

[daisychain1]

I love this!!

Thanks for posting. YouTube is the best thing ever. Thanks for sharing.

[mystykit]

We love Greg Palast! Keep on rocking Greg! Thanks Alternate Focus for posting this!

[Kykk]

Greg Palast is a hero. Some people just don't accept the truth. (If Newton belonged to this group of people he'd be asking "who threw that?")

[funkysmelly]

So the neocon wet dream in Iraq did not go as planned but they just can't give up the dream. That is why they will never leave Iraq and that is why they will steal the 2008 election unless stopped. The right will not let democracy function as the stakes are too high.

Rock on Greg.

[FattKidd]

This guy is a former investigator at the Justice Department where he specialized in corporate fraud, graft, etc etc. I think he even worked for the SEC at one time as an investigator. His skills are superb and he meticulously documents everything. He's won numberous awards for his reporting for the BBC and Newsnight. He's about as good as they come. You may not like what he's reporting but, you'll be hard pressed to refute anything he reports.

[burdog41]

another "journalist" Hugo Chavez bag lapper.What a tool.

[CodyYarbrough]

I don't understand. What fact did he put forward that you disagree with? Your homoerotic epithets don't stand in for real argumentation.

[djemil5]

How do you spell Sovereignty?

[unsub99]

Now you;re getting it. The reference was made because youtube was founded by Americans in America and located in America. And the foreignors can't wait to get on sites that discuss America and it's citizens to bash America. So, fuck you and them.

[lightningpaw2]

By your skewed rationale, I recommend you cease all use of the english language since it was not created by Americans. Despite what you may think, citizens acorss the globe regularly occupy themselves with issues other than the USA, it's not always ALL about America. Get over yourself, learn some respect and grow up.

[unsub99]

This guy is a wacko! ......and why is everone on this site lame ass America hating foreignors, with a couple of California communists thrown in? This idiot makes about as much sense as that other half wit Charlie Sheen and his sister Rosie.

[lightningpaw2]

Foreigners? Yeah unsub, you're right. Imagine all those filthy non-Americans out there being so audacious as to use a public website. Best we put a stop to this outrage and rally for a ban on internet access in other countries in the name of american-style freedom.

[unsub99]

The reason WE refer to outsiders as foreigners is that youtube was founded by Americans, operated by Americans, and facilities are LOCATED in America. SO show some respect, FOREIGNER!

OR, start your own version if you've got half a brain. You could call it wigtube and sit around wearing those white wigs, buckled shoes and tighty whitey pants. And for the sake of the rest of us, BRUSH those teeth once in awhile! Say hello to your queen, Elton John.

[lightningpaw2]

I can't quite make up my mind which is sadder; the fact that this tirade of juvenile drivel is merely a rehash of your last comment, OR that it has seemingly taken you a whole 8 months to formulate! Impressive performance. Who knows, with another 8 months you may yet harness the ability to muster a single original thought in that microscopic cell you call a brain. There is always hope, don't you give up now trooper.

[mybadbob]

lightningass,

You're a dumb fucking Brit. No one here gives a rat's ass about your sissy little comments.

I guess it';s your mother's fault. You grew up to be only half the man she is.

Take care of those rotten teeth, little twit.

[lightningpaw2]

Congratulations on usurping unsub99's crown of stupidity. What a pair you make. First a man who can only formulate an "argument" by repeating his own lazy insuslts, and now yourself; a man so incapable of formulating even his OWN lazy insults he feels compelled to re-repeat those of the moron above. This level of idiocy is truly awe-inspiring.

[ray1bradbury]

unsub99 Re: "You could call it wigtube and sit around wearing those white wigs, buckled shoes and tighty whitey pants"

You what??!! Man, that is SO funny, you actually think us British sit around like a bunch of 18th Century aristos talking to the QUEEN?? You Americans crack me up sometimes!

(No offence to the smarter ones ;D) OMG! You sound like such a stereotypical thick American, it's unbelievable. :-)

+ I'm proud of being British!

[chachalaca777]

superb guy, I suppose there is a lot more to this story as paulagloria has pointed out, but all in all, very interesting.

[paulagloria]

check out Webster Tarpley's "Unauthorized Biography of George Bush" which he posted free on the internet in 1992 in terror of George 41 becoming president and then compare the research and see if Greg lifted the material EXCEPT for the Nazi money connection....I rest my case

[marfawkah02]

awesome video, keep up the good work

ps. GREG PALAST IS MY HERO

[FREEW0RLD2012]

You are correct DrMattBlack..Osama bin Laden is a patsy.

[sarwar26]

Invading Iraq makes sense now. Theres more problems in Africa but US wont help because there is no OIL. THINK ABOUT IT.

No 9/11 no Iraq war. No oil for America. Its good to see Americans questioning their own govnmt.

[iamfromoaklandRU]

There's lots of oil in Africa numbnuts

[Hozean]

we need more greg palast

[daniesza]

It's sad the American citizen has taken so long to face the ugly face of their country. It's sad, because it may be too late. Unless we turn around and give it our best try to redeem ourselves.

[unsub99]

danieza, Back up to the mirror and bend over. The only ugly face is yours, asshole.

[DrMattBlack]

Oh by the way- Osama Bin Laden is the 21st century Lee Harvey Oswald.

[ara3n]

wow. It's sad the Gov in US can't face the truth.

[raydar878]

the simple truth!
