The world is witnessing an atrocity. Since July 7, Israel has subjected the nearly 2 million people of the Palestinian territory of Gaza to a deadly reign of terror from the sky, and now a murderous land invasion, killing over 600 people, 90 of them children.
We talk with Israeli author and historian Ilan Pappe, who has labeled the assault "incremental genocide." We also dig deeply into the nature of the state of Israel, and its history and foundation in ethnic cleansing.

July 22, 2014, 4:20 p.m.
What if the solution for reducing our collective carbon footprint were right under our feet? Our guest this week on Sea Change Radio believes it is - soil is a natural and planet-healthy repository for CO2. A slight rise in carbon dioxide levels in the soil could help fend off the encroaching warming of the climate. Author Courtney White talks about this as well as the environmental problems caused by today's common farming practices.
Marilyn Waring: SEX, LIES AND GLOBAL ECONOMICS (ONE of ONE)
July 22, 2014, 2:02 p.m.
The gross domestic product, the GDP, allegedly is an indicator of the well being of a society. Since powerful forces in banking and public policy are driving attempts to increase growth to solve the financial crisis it is important to listen to the critics of growth.
The GDP formula was invented by John Maynard Keynes who wrote a pamphlet during World War II entitled: The British National Income and How to Pay for the War. In 1953 that Keynesian set of rules was imposed on everybody. The rules are called The United Nations System of National Accounts. All countries must use them or they will not be allowed to be a member of the UN, or deal with the World Bank and IMF. These unquestioned rules have been used to make public policy for the last 61 years.
Marilyn Waring says that the GDP system counts only cash transactions in the market. In other words it recognizes no value other than money. This means there is no value to peace to the preservation of the environment, and no value to unpaid work. This system leaves out half the population of the planet and the planet itself.

Rev Susie's Michael Jackson/OJ Simpson HellSpree Show, part 1!
July 20, 2014, 7:29 p.m.
Pack a bowl and come along on this low-speed Bronco chase--because you can't BEAT IT! You'll marvel at the updated mix of my legendary Michael Jackson/O.J. Simpson Hellspree show! Originally created in January of 2004, this one was a major step in the development of my Recombinant Comedy⢠technique, and man, the plot didn't just jell--this thing CLOTTED. Two individual fatelines tangle and snarl as they twist themselves into a single sputtering fuse that ignites an explosion of violence, murder, and mayhem! A brobdingnagian orgy at Neverland Ranch turns bad, and not in the usual childraping sense--because making the scene with Michael's guests Liz Taylor, Mike Tyson, and Kato Kaelin is psycho murderer O.J. Simpson! The mutilated bodies start stacking up--but then the narrative takes a shockingly dark turn, as Frank fucking Booth shows up--to team up with O.J., kidnap Michael, and take us all on a little joyride, tearing ass across state lines straight to BLUE VELVETville!!!
But get this--the final explosive eruption of retribution is still to come...next week, when we get to hear PART TWO!
With music by Yellowman, Negativland, a "Gay Simpsons" mix by some unknown internet fiend, the bodice-ripping OJ Simpson anthem "When Heroes Fall" by some deranged fan--and WESLEY WILLIS tells it like it is!!! (And I know the BLUE VELVET party sequence at Ben's will drive astute listeners crazy, because ten years ago, I couldn't nail a copy of Bill Doggett's "Honky Tonk Pt 1" to flesh out the background music over the parts I added to it...so I had no choice but to glean bits of music from the pauses between lines of dialogue. So yes, it really sounds choppy as hell. But it's still pretty good for a bimbo, huh?)
