Fascist Canada Part 1: Bill C 51 and the Media Campaign
Feb. 27, 2015, 1 p.m.
Anti-terrorism legislation is working its way through Parliament. Critics argue the legislation opens the door to creating a secret police and draconian powers for Canada's spy agency. Coincidentally, a lot of media messaging is hinting at the idea that Canada is under siege from the Islamic Terrorist menace.
For example, on the day before there was a vote in the Canadian House of Commons, there was a terror alert in which an anonymous member of the group Al Shabaab encouraged attacks on Canadian targets including the West Edmonton Mall.
This week's episode of the Global Research News HOur features long-time journalist, author and media critic Barrie Zwicker. He comments on the media campaign and contributes his thoughts about whether there has been collusion between the media establishment and the the elites within Canadian society.

We're Already Paying Carbon Taxes
Feb. 27, 2015, 11:37 a.m.
"The fact is that American taxpayers are paying for the costs of climate change now. These costs don't hit us all at once but sporadically, in different places and at different times. They don't feel like a carbon tax, though they amount to one. Every time we use fossil fuels, we increase our tax burden, a burden that unfolds like a sequence of trap doors, just like climate change itself." ~ Mark Shapiro
âThe ground is shifting beneath our feet," declares author Mark Shapiro. Mark explains how he reacted to an oil spill from the tanker Prestige along the coast of Galicia in 2002 devastated a nearby town's economy and cost billions in cleanup expenses. From the agricultural fields of California to the Amazon rainforest, from the export powerhouses of China to the bizarre world of carbon traders, Mark tells the story of how profoundly climate change is shifting the economic landscape. Mark explores how some new powers are rising and others are falling as the world struggles to contend with the fundamental economic fact of our time, the rising price of carbon.
Mark Schapiro writes about the intersection of the environment, economics, and political power. Mark teaches journalism at UC-Berkeley and at the Monterey Institute of International Studies.
"In his powerful new book Carbon Shock, Mark Schapiro transcends standard discussions about the well-known culprits and ramifications of climate change and takes us on a harrowing, international exploration of the universal economic costs of carbon emissions. In his path-breaking treatise, Schapiro exposes the multinational corporate obfuscation of these costs; the folly of localized pseudo-solutions that spur Wall Street trading but don't quantify financial costs or public risks, solve core problems, or provide socially cheaper and environmentally sounder practices; and the laggard policies of the US, Russia and China relative to the EU in fashioning longer-term remedies. Not only does Schapiro compel the case for a global effort to thwart the joint economic and environmental plundering of our planet in this formidable book, but he expertly outlines the way to get there." ~ Nomi Prins, author of All the Presidents' Bankers and It Takes a Pillage

The Brothers: John Foster Dulles and Allen Dulles...
Feb. 26, 2015, 3:12 p.m.
Stephen Kinzer's book âThe Brothersâ tells the story of two siblings who achieved remarkable influence, serving as secretary of state and director of the Central Intelligence Agency in the Eisenhower administration. It is a bracing and disturbing study of the exercise of American global power. These ruthless, highly-connected elites were at the very center, operating largely in secret and without accountability. Their evil legacy continues out of control this very day, and may yet swallow all humanity.
Kinzer spoke at the Midcoast Forum in Maine on June 16, 2014. Some time later, Truth and Justice Radio was introduced to his remarkable book and subsequently aired his talk. His book brings the facts to life, and we recommend it highly.
Kinzer is an award-winning foreign correspondent who has covered more than 50 countries on five continents. His articles and books have led the Washington Post to place him âamong the best in popular foreign policy storytelling.â

On the Palestine Diaspora in America - "Home Away From Home"
Feb. 26, 2015, 2:37 p.m.
On today's show we pay special tribute to the Palestinian diaspora in America by sharing with you excerpts of Najib Joe Hakim's project called "Home Away From Home".
Combining photography and oral history recorded onto audio, the Home Away from Home project by Najib Joe Hakim shines light on the experience of Palestinians living in the United States. Hakim interviewed more than two dozen Palestinian Americans in the San Francisco Bay Area about their relationship to the US and to Palestine, and asked them what home means to them. The result is a compelling portrait series of Palestinian Americans of various generations, some who were born in Palestine and some who have never set foot there. Some describe dual identity issues common to other immigrant communities in the US, but particular to Arab and Muslim Americans at this moment, is their being treated as the enemy, as the US wages war on, or funds occupation in, their homelands.
Telling their stories and the stories of their families is so very important to Palestinians. Their stories are the heart and soul of the Palestinian narrative. And listening to their stories is crucial for us non-Palestinians who struggle to understand what is happening in the Israeli/Palestinian struggle. Understanding begins with listening to their stories.
These 5 narratives are assembled to run back-to-back. Some of those interviewed on this morningâs broadcast identify themselves and some do not.
