John Arquilla– “Networks and Netwars”
Jan. 9, 2026, 5:45 a.m.
The war that the United States has invoked in what is often called the “War On Terror” is unusual in many ways. One of those ways is that this war is being fought against a network that is spread out in many unsuspecting and obscure places. It is not being fought as many wars have been in the past, directly against another county. Dr. John Arquilla, is a professor of defense analysis and co-director of the justify on Terrorism at the Naval Post-Graduate School in Monterey, California. In this program we talk with Professor Arquilla about the fighting tactics employed by networks as opposed to countries, the threats they pose, and some of the war tactics used against these networks.
John Arquilla recommends “Kim,” by Rudyard Kipling.

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson -The Working Peoples Budget Historic Win - Presser /Q&A
Jan. 8, 2026, 3:44 a.m.
Chicago alderman passed an alternative budget to the one proposed by the Mayor of Chicago and his supporters in City Council. Billionaire money was spent to buy supposed "progressive councilmen " to prevent one provision of the of the Mayors "The Protect Chicago Budget", that included reinstatement of a minuscule corporate head tax on only the largest of the corporations doing business in the City, a tax that was initiated under the administration of the first Mayor Daley, back in the 1970's, and continued until neoliberal bag-man for the Israel First lobby, then Mayor Rahm Emanuel nixed it. Other than that and the legalization of some socially regressive gambling activities, the Budget that passed contained 98% of what was in the Mayors original. But
in that, only after an intensive people's lobbying campaign on certain aldermen forcing them to question whether they were more concerned about what Corporations and Billionaires thought than what their constitutions thought and might do in upcoming elections.

We discuss her recent book, “The Problem with Plastics: How We Can Save Ourselves and Our Planet Before It’s Too Late.” We examine some of the alarming stats associated with what seems to be a never-ending rise in plastics production and consumption, talk about how relatively little plastic is actually recycled, and delve into some policies and practices that can help stem the plastic tide.

Feminist Theology and Women in the Muslim World - Part Two
Jan. 6, 2026, 12:41 a.m.
Dr. Riffat Hassan is a Muslim theologian from Pakistan who opposes the Islamic view of the inferiority of women. She says that since anti women legislation and custom are enacted in the name of theology, it is necessary to study the Koran and investigate the source. This required courage since challenging traditional interpretation of the Koran can be a capital offense. On the other hand we are all familiar with the claim that Islam has given women more rights than any other religious tradition. And Riffat Hassan decided to deal with that contradiction.
Riffat Hassan began her quest in 1984 when her feminist friends in Pakistan asked her to help define the theological argument for women’s liberation. That request change her life. The events of 9/11 made her work much harder and she continued to promote understanding of Islam internationally.
This is a rare TUC Radio archive recording of Riffat Hassan from April 1993 at UC Berkeley. We had never heard a purely theological argument for women’s liberation and learned much about Islam that night. We realized how closely related Islam, Christianity and Judaism are, making women of these three faiths the largest minority of any kind in the world. The basic myth of Adam and Eve is embedded in all three religions and is used by all of them to define woman as secondary, inferior and sinful. In this talk Riffat Hassan takes a closer look at the original story told in the Koran and by the end of this program your idea of Adam’s identity, or who was first and the whole issue of the rib will be thoroughly shaken.
Riffat Hassan was Professor of Religious Studies and Humanities at the University of Louisville, Kentucky. She received her PhD from Durham University, UK, in 1968 and has taught in many institutions, including Oklahoma State University and Harvard Divinity School. She retired in 2009 after 33 years of teaching.
She remains active today and never dropped her engagement with these issues. You can find talks by her on YouTube by searching for her name.
Date recorded: April 1993 UCBerkeley, CA
