Michael Parenti wrote: The empire is not in decline but it is under siege here and there. Like all empires, it lives by the sword, with deception and destruction. It lives to plunder. It uses imaginary enemies to frighten its own people but it also incites real enemies who loathe its retrograde ways. For democracy and our own salvation, for equality and environment, for all that is decent and fair, we must oppose the empire. And we can best do that when we know what it is really about, when we move from a liberal complaint to a radical analysis. Only then can we capture the heart of the matter.
