Donald Drumpf Theatre Vol. 149 Bribery
Nov. 20, 2019, 8:57 p.m.
An original radio theatre show each week, with most sounds culled from the previous week, about a fictional, theatrical presidency. Contradictions tell the story, with songs, skits, and clips from political news shows and late-night comedy routines. The definition of "radio theatre" is stretched here, with an updated Dickie Goodman and/or Richard Foreman-meets-mashup style sometimes, and a more straightforward take other weeks. Currently airing on 30 or 40 stations around the world, the network has ordered another 10 episodes, but there are threats of impending cancellation. Anyone who would like to work on a production, or have their work air in this timeslot, should contact info@wgxc.org.
Syria prevailing over Western treachery...
Nov. 20, 2019, 8:48 p.m.
Phil asks Sahiounie about his recent article concerning the role of Russian military policy in Northeastern Syria. These Russian peace-keepers are posted along the Turkish border, conducting joint patrols with the Turks.
Sahiounie says that the US is occupying North East Syria's oil and gas fields, not because they need the small amount of oil and gas generated on in that area. Instead, the U.S. intends to use the oil and gas wells as leverage versus the Syrian government on the details of the final settlement of the war in Syria, and who gets to be involved in Syrian reconstruction.
Phil asks how relations stand between Syrian Kurds and the Syrian government. Sahiounie explains that when the USA betrayed their Kurdish allies (a US tradition), most of Syian-Kurdish parties switched their alegiance to Russia and Syria. In return, the Syrian and Russian governments have insisted that Kurdish forces leave the Turkish border area and integrate their armed forces into the SAA.
The big winners in these developments are Syria and Russia. Russia's international prestige as an honest broker has risen. Syria has already recaptured key border towns, the largest oil field, and the largest electrical generating plant. Turkey has gained also in working with Russia to clean the border area of Kurdish militants.
As for Western sanctions, they are really hurting poor people in Syria. Syria used to grow its own food and produce its own oil. Due to sanctions and occupations, it can't do that now.
As for Idlib, Sahiounie estimated that most of the armed militants are foreigners. However, the Syrian government sent thousands of anti-government Syrians on the green buses to Idlib. Phil asks what will become of these militants. Sahiounie spectulates that Turkey will not re-admit them. Rather, these militants will either be liquidated or shipped to another country to carry on their dirty work for the U.S. empire.

Prince Andrew ill advised Buckingham Palace interview with BBC's Emily Maitlis
Nov. 19, 2019, 5:09 p.m.
some questions
Was Epstein a paedophile? No, paedophiles are sexually attracted to pre-pubescent children, not under-age 12-18 year olds. Epstein was running a well-funded Mossad blackmail, honey-trap operation.
Where is child sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell? In Brazil, being protected by president Juan Guaido and his Israel-friendly fascist government.
Was Epstein's New York mansion equipped with hidden video cameras which would have filmed Prince Andrew and Virginia Giuffre having sex if they did so? Yes.
Why was Andrew walking in Central Park with Jeffrey Epstein? Because he wanted to ask Epstein, away from any possible surveillance, if Epstein had any compromising film or pictures of Andrew with his girls.
So who is behind this sting against Prince Andrew, and why? Prince Charles and his Zionist colleagues want to blacken Andrew's name in the run-up to potential disputes over the royal succession to Prince Charles who is extremely unpopular in the UK.

Nori + Keeling Curve Prize
Nov. 19, 2019, 1:21 p.m.
If you ask most people what they think of blockchain applications or cryptocurrency, the response is usually a blank stare of utter bafflement. Well, this week on Sea Change Radio, we are going to try to make some sense of this arcane concept as we re-visit our 2018 discussion with Paul Gambill, an entrepreneur who has devised a carbon dioxide removal marketplace which incorporates blockchain applications. Gambill explains how his startup, Nori, uses this cryptography-based technology, how it plans to ramp up into a vibrant marketplace of buyers and sellers, and why he believes this could actually help reverse the effects of climate change. Then, we speak to Jackie Francis, the executive director of the Keeling Curve Prize as she tells us about her organizationâs mission and gives us a glimpse at some of the 2019 winners.

Back in the USSR focuses on the present struggle in Bolivia, where the people are rising up against the US-backed right-wing military coup that overthrew the democratically elected president Evo Morales, the first indigenous president anywhere in the Americas.

As Thomas Sankara used to say, "When the people stand up imperialism trembles."

Although Jewish, he is a leader of Kairos USA, a pro-Palestinian group for American Christians.

On the Streets with the Veterans Day Parade
Nov. 16, 2019, 8:36 a.m.
We took to the streets again and bring you more of the live sounds of people in motion, this time as we covered the Veterans Day Parade and found out what groups like #OutNow cooked up to meet and greet the parades featured speaker Donald Trump. And, wel talked with those veterans in particular who protested the spectacle of war as they maintained that veterans that had deployed to Iraq and Afghanistan, those in the youngest cohort, i.e. those most likely to have seen combat, have suicide rates, 4-10 times higher than their civilian peers. Said one marine who contacted Building Bridges to cover their protest, the answer to this question of veteran suicide is simply that there is a clear link between combat and suicide. This link has been confirmed over and over again in peer reviewed research. In a 2015 meta-analysis by the University of Utah National Center for Veteran Studies, researchers found 21 of 22 previously conducted peer reviewed studies investigating the link between combat and suicide confirmed a clear relationship between the two. The reality is that deaths by suicide often kill veterans at a level greater than combat, while the primary reason for these deaths lie in the immoral and ghastly nature of war itself."
