I know I'm going to take a mass DU ass kicking for this

2. "Obama and Empire"
Could you give us an idea of what point he is trying to make? Nothing in your OP makes me want to sit through 30 minutes of that video, and the title isn't helping.

8. It's NOT Rick Astley
or whatever the rick roll guy's name is. It's John Pilger.

10. it's John Pilger.

I guess it's easier to make Rick Astley jokes to discourage people from watching, than it is to watch the video, which demands a bit of time, and which I suspect, is a little more than most DU'er want to deal with. It's Pilger, giving a speech entitled Obama and Empire. It lasts about 30 minutes, and it doesn't place our hero in a positive light.

11. You really need to post some sort of synopsis ...
... for video links. "I agree with this guy", is not enough.
