Do we have a date for this interview?
I feel we have lost 2 of the greatest minds of the 20th century with Vidal and Hitchens
Long live eugenics and communism
What is the author's name mentioned by Gore Vidal who wrote a "…good book on the decision to use the bomb"? I couldn't catch the author's name spoken by Gore Vidal.
The American republic died at Appomaddox. Long before the Atom bombings, which were of course evil and idiotic.
Eisenhower was absolutely right, it’s been nothing but trouble. For the world.
Oh, Gore, death spared you of having to live through trump's idioticy and his cult of delusional's.
But I can visualize your smirk when asked and your reply would be :
(finger wagging) " I told you so.."
Japanese emperor sent letters to Truman begging for surrender ???

Younger sexier Paul Jay
Gore Vidal, a great mind with dissenting views who was masterfully ignored by the mass media.
Would that Gore Vidal was still with us.
I always heard that the Dr. Strangelove character was based on Henry Kissinger.
Please tell the viewers when these great interviews were made. Very important for young folks who now wake up.
An analysis of Gore Vidal's main points of view especially in light of Assange's recent statements would be helpful.
Thanks for the video. When was this interview recorded?
Real history by a true historian
