Tulsi Gabbard Challenges America's Regime Change Wars
April 2, 2019, 7:30 p.m.
Investigative journalist Rick Sterling explains why Tulsi Gabbard appeals to him.
First, Gabbard has years of military experience, and has come to oppose "regime change" operations. Her experience gives her a more realistic perspective as compared with most Beltway decision makers. Second, she is against corporate military profiteering. Third, she is tough, and could hold her own against the Democratic establishment. As a veteran, she cannot be shamed into silence when discussing military affairs.
What about Bernie? Well, Tulsi has always been more specific about what she will do with regard to reducing military deployments. She has centered foreign policy as a key campaign issue. Gabbard has lobbied on behalf of maintaining existing arms limitation treaties, as she understands the consequences if they are discarded.
The xenophobia and supremacism embraced in the United States by both parties needs to be challenged. As Tulsi says, "We must change our foreign policy" and work towards relations of co-operation, not coercion.
From Sea to Shining Sea: Jeff Boehm and David Abel
April 2, 2019, 3:43 p.m.
Oceans cover about 70% of our planet, and represent over 95% of all of the earthâs water. The human impact on the ocean includes temperature rise, coral bleaching, ocean acidification, and changing chemical composition of the water â all of these things, of course, have an effect on the organisms that live in these vast ecosystems. This week on Sea Change Radio, we take a look back into the archives. First, we revisit our discussion with Jeff Boehm, the Executive Director of the Marine Mammal Center in Sausalito, CA as he talks about the work his organization does to protect seals up and down the Pacific coast. Then, we speak with Boston Globe reporter David Abel about the surprising resurgence of Atlantic cod.

Vandana Shiva: Oneness VS. The 1%
April 2, 2019, 12:52 p.m.
Vandana Shiva came to the US in the early 1990s in the campaigns against the World Trade Organization and globalization. She was well known as protector of seeds and a brilliant critic of biotechnology. Her most recent 2019 book: Oneness VS. The 1%, culminates that work in an amazing indictment of a new world-wide power center reaching from Monsanto to Artificial intelligence. Vandana Shiva describes what she calls a poison cartel comprising of Bayer that just took over Monsanto, to Dow that has merged with Dupont; and Syngenta that has merged with ChemChina. What these corporations have in common is the control of our foods and the chemicals used on them. They are defining industrial agriculture and have enormous impacts on climate change.
On March 30, 2019, Vandana Shiva was the guest of Chris Hedges on his TV program ON CONTACT. What shocked and surprised even him was that this Poison Cartel has already entered strategic alliances with internet giants and promoters of artificial intelligence such as Bill Gates, Facebook, and Amazon.
Chris Hedges is a journalist, author, Presbyterian minister, and visiting Princeton University lecturer. His many books include War is a Force That Gives us Meaning and his most recent America: The Farewell Tour.
Vandana Shiva is an Indian physicist and social activist. The daughter of a forestry official and a farmer, she grew up near the foothills of the Himalayas. She earned her doctorate in Canada and returned to India to work with the Research Foundation for Science, Technology and Ecology (RFSTE)in Dehra Dun.
In 1991 Shiva launched Navdanya, meaning âNine Seeds,â or âNew Giftâ in Hindi, to combat the growing tendency toward monoculture promoted by large corporations. Shiva argues that in a time of climate change, monocultures are dangerous.
Among her many books are Soil Not Oil, Staying Alive, Biopiracy: The Plunder of Nature & Knowledge, Monocultures of the Mind, and now: Oneness VS. The 1%.

Lafayette Bakerâs accusation that Secretary of War Stanton led the conspiracy to whack Lincoln. Those in deep with Stanton numbered, politicians, army and naval officers, prominent bankers, newspaper reporters and assorted civilians.
Baker rightfully fears his own assassination. A nineteenth-century hitman facilitates the faked death and release of a convicted conspirator jailed in Fort Jefferson on the Dry Tortugas. He is also present at three suspicious deathsâone of which is Bakerâs. He loses the trail of the released conspirator, who assists Boothâs wife in getting to San Francisco with a cache of gold and silver for a rendezvous with a man named John Byron Wilkes and a watery passage to India.

Globe and Mail's hack article on China insults readers
April 1, 2019, 6:10 p.m.
The Globe and Mail has once again published a reckless and poorly substantiated article about the situation of Uighurs in China. There is no substantiated evidence of "massive camps." As Norton and Singh pointed out in 2018, mainstream media have followed a Reuters story that falsely posited that the UN had made claims about China. In truth, the claims were made by an American woman who was part of an organization of "independent experts" --not the UN.
The March 2019 Globe article cited the Jamestown Foundation, a conservative US-based organization that once listed ex-Vice President Dick Cheney on its board of directors.

April 1, 2019, 1:45 p.m.
âââââDavid Bacon explores the human side of globalization, exposing the many ways it uproots people driving them to migrate. He also speaks about how immigration policy makes the labor of those displaced people a crime in the United States.

#578 -- Chris Hedges: The Algebra of Revolution, Part 1 (R)
March 31, 2019, 5:57 p.m.
A hard-hitting speech from 2016 by journalist/essayist Hedges. It's about the corruption of The System... the increasing power of "the one percent"... the betrayal of the people by the Democratic and Republican parties... the century-long crackdown on dissent... and our increasingly meaningless national politics, in which our real and pressing problems (climate change, oligarchy, a plundered economy) are seldom even mentioned--let alone debated, let alone put to a vote.

New: the upper limit to CO2 we can emit, before essential clouds stop shading the Earth. At cloud doomsday Earth's temperature soars 8 degrees C, 14 degees Fahrenheit. We hope that will never come, but if we go there, that is the end. New science from the lead author at NASA. Then from the Post Carbon Institute, Jason Bradford predicts the tide of humans into cities will reverse. The future is food, and local - we can prepare now for the end of fossil fuels & continuing climate threats.

Ahmed Abu Artema, a founder of Gaza's Great March of Return
March 31, 2019, 2:42 p.m.
The Great March of Return continues in Gaza, as does the slaughter by the Israeli snipers who openly shoot at protesters walking toward the wall that imprisons them in Gaza. Several of the protestors have died, but mostly the snipers shoot to maim, aiming at feet and legs. Imagine the barbarity of a nation which imprisons Gazans behind a huge wall, to have its soldiers shoot unarmed Gazan protestors when they get too close to that precious wall!
Today we will hear Ahmed Abu Artema, a founder of the Great March of Return. But first we hear an excerpt from an article by Jen Marlow, a journalist who writes in Mondoweiss describing her experience on one of these historic marches to the wall. From the article, it becomes clear that the Gazan protestors are among the bravest and most heroic people that the world has ever produced.
Finally, we hear from our main speaker, who spoke recently at Harvard Law School. Ahmed Abu Artema is a Palestinian journalist and peace activist, now on tour in the US. He is the author of the book "Organized Chaos" and numerous articles. He is a refugee from Al Ramla village in Palestine. Here is Ahmed Abu Artema, with introductory statements from the moderator, Amahl Bishara, professor at Tufts University.
