Delegitmizing Syria's Resistance
Oct. 12, 2015, 9:54 p.m.
A so-called "barrel bomb" dropped from a helicopter is more accurate and precise than most munitions fired on a battlefield, but that's not really what this is about.
The use of this propaganda, like the chemical weapons story a few years ago, is "about finding some horror story that people don't understand, and repeating it endlessly," explains Prof. Tim Anderson, a Syria solidarity activist.
"It's an attempt to denigrate the Syrian military and say that they have no right to defend Syria."
Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch continue to present themselves as reliable sources, but Anderson explains this misunderstanding.
"Amnesty International U.S.A. is dominated by the state department," and a leader worked for Hillary Clinton.

Out of the Woods - Show #288 - 10-17-15
Oct. 12, 2015, 4:45 p.m.
This version of the program is divided into 6 segments so broadcasters who desire to use this content can insert your station info, etc. The segments vary in length.
Out of the Woods is an earthy, wires and wood, mostly acoustic program featuring some of the best new and established artists from the worlds of folk, bluegrass, singer-songwriters, alt.country, Americana, classic country, old-time, Celtic, and everything that falls in between. The show is an unpredictable mix flowing like a river between moods, often with an edge or in a melancholy minor key. On occasion, Out of the Woods features interviews and live in-studio performances with national and international touring musicians. Past guests have included artists such as Bela Fleck, Si Kahn, Brown Bird, Dana Robinson, Steve Gillette & Cindy Mangsen, Kate MacLeod, Bill Bourne, Karl Shiflett, Rachel Bissex, Darryl Purpose, Bow Thayer, Cosy Sheridan and many others. Out of the Woods grew out of Jon 'Chip' Colcord's former acoustic programs, The Song Swap and Music For The Mountain, separate folk and bluegrass programs which aired in New Hampshire during the 1990s. As a child, Colcord grew up a ravenous music fan with an ear for both rock and folk, from Arlo Guthrie to Aerosmith. All of these influences converge on Out of the Woods to bring you a mix which is as much on the edge as it is down home. Folk music with a rock 'n' roll soul

Stephen Gowans comments on the U.S.' contradictory policy of 'attacking' ISIS while defending Al Nusra in Syria.
The Russian intervention challenges Washington's pretense that it fights a "war against terror." The Russians, unlike the U.S., have no desire to implement an illegal regime change in Syria, and they are able to pursue an unhindered campaign against all the extremist groups that have illegally invaded Syria.
Unlike NATO's support for foreign fighters in Syria, the Russian intervention is entirely legal, occurring at the invitation of the current government of Syria.

Lawrence Jarach on AJODA (10/11/2015)
Oct. 11, 2015, 2:57 p.m.
This week Bursts spoke with Lawrence Jarach of Anarchy: A Journal Of Desire Armed (AJODA). We spoke about the publishing project, Individualist Anarchism, Post-Left Anarchy and other topics. A good portion of the discussion focused on the main article of the magazine this last issue, "Against Identity Politics" by Lupus Dragonowl, which attempts to critique essentialist identity organizing but in particular the methods that have reappeared in political scenes around the U.S. over prior years. These methods of engagement (or disengagement) include calling out, accountability processes and denunciations.
In the longer, second file on this page (with podcast in the name) you'll find an extended conversation between Bursts and Lawrence exploring such ideas as accountability, restorative justice versus retributive justice and scene beef.
More from AJODA can be found at http://anarchymag.org.
An audio version of the essay "Against Identity Politics" has been distributed by the folks at Free Radical Radio and can be found here: http://freeradicalradio.net/2015/09/29/against-identity-politics-spectres-joylessness-the-contours-of-ressentiment/
