Interview with Professor David Ray Griffin
May 5, 2010, 8:33 a.m.
Professor Griffin explains why he concludes that the US war on Afghanistan is utterly illegal in several major ways, as well as fraudulent. He reviews the amazing contrasts between the continuing official story versus diametrically opposite findings of the FBI and other official bodies. We discuss the opprobrium universally faced by those of us who dare to question the official story.
Prominent among Professor Griffin's extensive writings are nine books on various aspects of 9/11; see his website, davidraygriffin.com.

Haymarket Riot Part 2 - Of anarchist and 40 hour work weeks
May 4, 2010, 1:38 p.m.
Ironically August Spies who was executed for the Haymarket Riot was an advocate of non-violent resistance. He led off the protest at the Haymarket with the following speech:
âThere seems to prevail in some quarters the idea that this meeting has been called for the purpose of inaugurating a riot. However let me tell you at the beginning that this meeting has not been called for any such purpose.â
He then went onto explain that the meetingâs intent was to shed light on the activities and the general situation surrounding the shootings that had occurred earlier that week at the McCormick Reaper Works factory.
Shortly after he left, 180 police marched into the square and ordered the meeting to disperse. As the speakers climbed down from the platform, a bomb was thrown at the police, killing one and injuring seventy. Police responded by firing into the crowd, killing one worker and injuring many others.
