    If you have a cough during class or a lecture. Step out get some water or a cough drop, maybe leave a cell phone to record the min or two you are gone.... and come back. Class disruptions are sooo annoying. Great lecture!

    The whole effort to contain and roll back communism was an enormous success for our country that we can be proud of. The US prevented many, many countries from falling to dictatorships.

    i dont think there was as much discord in the public during the Korean War as Professor Kramer mentions. What is the evidence for that?

    The lecturer should be wired for sound ( I know this a few years ago ) but it sounds like the mike is in the audience, hence the loud coughs.

    Mark also speaks genuine frontier gibberish. A true skalher.

    Our CIA was a joke in the beginning we had a bunch of college bros of the day getting they're ass handed to them until the rise in signals Intel and our intelligence groups getting the operational connections it needed to run successful human intelligence

    This just seems like a zeitgeist in the intelligence and propaganda communities of the US over the years. He even got the date of the Israel and the Pakistani nuclear weapons program wrong.

    They often used to say a couple of British A levels with mediocre grades say D D before say 1978 and the destruction of the British educational system by Shirley Williams, was equal to a US college degree. You know Paul McCarthy, Mick Jagger, Brian Jones, Jonny Rotten ( Lyndon), Ian Curtis and Ian McCulloch, would have made it. A Harvard or Columbia doctorate. Of course Harvard would have required 40 pages in every assignment and essay, even 3 hour exam. At a Liverpool or Cheltenham grammar even Oxford a 4 page handwritten effort would be an essay.
    But still not the total PC bullshit clearly required by Harvard. I always wondered why Yale was the only US University answered my letters, noted me etc
