Commentary on Karegeya's Assassination
Jan. 26, 2014, 10:26 p.m.
The first half of the program deals with the assassination in South Africa of the late Colonel Patrick Karegeya by the Rwandan government of Paul Kagame. Disillusioned with the Rwandan regime of Paul Kagame, the self-exiled Colonel Karegeya revealed that it was Kagame himself who ordered the shooting down of the airplane carrying two African heads of state, the former (Hutu) presidents of Rwanda and Burundi, plus the (Hutu) chief of staff of the Rwandan army. Those assassinations were the signal for Paul Kagameâs (Tutsi) RPF to launch the final attack on the government of Rwanda which led to terrible massacres inside Rwanda.

Clean water solidarity in WV & Swain's bid for election
Jan. 26, 2014, 5:24 p.m.
This episode features three content portions.
The first will be the 2nd in our hopefully ongoing presentation of audio essays by anarchist prisoner Sean Swain, currently held in isolation at Ohio State Prison in Youngstown Ohio for alleged involvement in the Army of the 12 Monkeys, a nascent prisoner guerilla sabotage movement in Ohio prisons which is spreading every wider. Sean Swain denies involvement in the group and a self-identified member of that movement denies his involvement yet he's been convicted of it despite any evidence and is now serving 23 hours a day in solitary, without human contact. We'll be featuring mostly weekly segments by Sean from inside prison until the fascist running dogs at OSP shut off our communication. Here Sean gives his bid in hopes of being elected not the next governor of Ohio in 2014, but the last. Check out some of his writings at http://seanswain.org
Our second segment is a conversation with Nat and D, two anarchists in the
South East of the U.S. doing mutual aid solidarity work with communities
in West Virginia effected by the leaking of chemicals by the sarcastically named Freedom Industries, a company involved in providing chemicals for coal extraction. https://donatenow.networkforgood.org/keeperofthemountains

A Building Bridges Expose - How the U.S. Government Profits from Child Labor, Forced Overtime, Wage Violations, and Other Illegal, Dangerous and Inhumane Conditions
with
Ian Urbina, N.Y. Times investigatory reporter
and
Molly McGrath, International Campaigns Coordinator, AFL-CIO
Just as major brands and retailers buy from thousands of global suppliers who fail to comply with laws, protect workers and respect workers' rights, the federal government s system for purchasing goods and services has failed to ensure that workers who produce these goods in global supply chains do so free from danger and exploitation. From its workers uniforms, to clothes using the logo of its armed forces, to goods sold at large stores on military bases, the U.S. government is the buyer, brand owner or retailer of more than 1 billion dollars of clothes. Yet it pays virtually no attention to the conditions in the many thousands of workplaces around the world (and in the the U.S.) where the goods are made

Dr Bill Slaughter: a psychiatrist who visits Gaza yearly
Jan. 25, 2014, 4:13 p.m.
This is an interview our host conducted with Dr Bill Slaughter, a Cambridge MA psychiatrist affiliated with Harvard Medical School who is a frequent traveler to the West Bank and, remarkably, Gaza.
"I met Bill on his first trip to Palestine in 2008. We were both attending a mental health conference in Ramallah that was actually originally scheduled to be held in Gaza, but the Israeli military would not allow participants to enter Gaza and so the conference was held in Ramallah with participation by Gazans held via the internet. The closest any of us got to Gaza was the Erez gate on the border of Israel where we all went to protest our exclusion from entering Gaza.
"Subsequently Dr Slaughter returns to the West Bank and Gaza almost every year, and is scheduled to return for his next visit this coming March of 2014. I sat down with Bill to discuss his commitment to the Palestinian struggle and to get an idea about how he relates to the Palestinian population both as an activist and as a physician whose skills as a psychiatrist are so welcomed and so needed by this population of people living under an oppressive occupation."
Dr Slaughter recounts the barriers, which he has amazingly managed to surmount, in order to get inside Gaza most years.

A wide variety of voices on this episode centered around the events of July 7th, 2005 explore David Miller's claim that the UK government uses the self-styled 'mainstream media' to promote Islamophobia through the security services.

Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead!
Jan. 24, 2014, 6:29 p.m.
Episode 23, Our attempt to class it all up takes us to Denmark as we queue up the 1990 stage to screen adaptation of ROSENCRANTZ & GUILDENSTERN ARE DEAD! From writer/director Tom Stoppard - Staring Gary Oldman, Tim Roth and Richard Dreyfuss. Told as a tale of Shakespearean origin from a skewed and unexpected perspective, two relatively minor characters from Hamlet take center stage as they try to determine the source of the prince's tortured despair. Along the way, the duo ponders the question of fate as their predetermined roles are played out. Meanwhile, they dabble in a little verbal tennis and some ill-advised science experiments... In other words, Roth & Oldman deliver Shakespear in a round about way while Richard Dreyfuss pulls the strings. And yes, that was his ACTUAL HAIR! Flocked and locked!
