"I Was a Catholic Zionist" - Monday, May 13
May 10, 2019, 8:45 p.m.
Brendan interviews author and editor Ted Schmidt about his partly-autobiographical account of his emergence into supporting the Palestinian struggle, a daunting feat for a Catholic friend of Toronto's Jewish community.
Schmidt's book is also a readable history of European anti-Semitism, the pressures that led to Zionism, and resistance to it within Judaism. There is a postcolonial dimension, in that Schmidt gradually became aware of the marginalized Arab voices that were seldom heard in Canada.

This weekâs archive radio show stands in solidarity with fellow KAOS programmer Kim Dobson, producer of Parallel University airing on KAOS at noon every Thursday. There were recent attempts by local liberal censors to have Kimâs show taken off the air due to Kimâs criticism of Olympiaâs âMissing Middleâ plan and exposing the hypocrisy of some of the liberal supporters of the Missing Middle plan â and so this week the Thunderbolt replays some past segments wherein I seriously criticize the Missing Middle plan and wherein I highlight the hypocrisy of some of the liberal supporters of the Missing Middle plan.
Thunderbolting locally this week. Olympia gentrifiers beware.

Today we start with an excerpt from Palestinian Remi Kanazi's brilliant performance at Harvard, commemorating Israeli Apartheid Week. Born 1981, Kanazi is a tour de force, a bundle of energy who is part poet, part stand up comedian, and part social commentator based in New York City. All 3 parts are evident in his performances. He is the editor of the anthology of hip hop, poetry and art, Poets for Palestine (2008), the author of two collections of poetry, Poetic Injustice: Writings on Resistance and Palestine (2011) and Before the Next Bomb Drops: Rising Up From Brooklyn to Palestine (2015). Go to youtube.com/user/PoeticInjusticeNet for his official channel. Have a look at "This Divestment Bill Hurts My Feelings."
Then we move over to Tufts University for part of its own recognition of Israeli Apartheid Week. It begins with introductions by Tufts Professor Tom Abowd. Noura Erakat and Khuri Peterson-Smith discuss the history and significance of Black-Palestinian solidarity. Noura Erakat, human rights attorney and Assistant Professor at George Mason University, is the author of Justice for Some: Law in the Question of Palestine (Stanford University Press, 2019).

Prof. Ed Wasserman on Julian Assange and the Mainstream Media
May 8, 2019, 1:28 p.m.
Blankfort interviews Prof. Ed Wasserman regarding his 4/27/19 op-ed in NY Times, âJulian Assange and the Woeful State of Whistle-Blowers,â in which Wasserman presents a nuanced view of Assange, noting that his faults make him âless a hero than a conundrumâ and faulting the media that once eagerly utilized what diplomatic secrets Wikileaks had received to win Pulitzer prizes âthat now find him distasteful.â
Wasserman points out the unfair treatment by the US of sources as compared to the legal protections afforded the journalists that use them and that, âfor all his sins, real and alleged, Julian Assange has been one of the most extraordinary sources of the new millennium.â
He also speaks about how more harshly the US treats sources, i.e. whistle-blowers than do America's allies, citing Edward Snowden, as an example, who was forced to seek asylum in Russia after exposing the NSA mass surveillance program, despite his revelations having been instrumental in implementing the law curbing it. And much more!

J. R. "Bob" Dobbs & The Church of the SubGenius Documentary Hour Of Slack 1717
May 8, 2019, 1:13 p.m.
This hour of RWR Radio is courtesy of The Church of the SubGenius. It features Byron Werner. This is one of those rare Hours of Slack that's a documentary about the making of a documentary. Actually it's a documentary about the WATCHING of a documentary about those doing the watching. Recursive! The feature documentary film about us, "J.R. "Bob" Dobbs and The Church of the SubGenius," directed by Sandy Boone, had a very enthusiastic reception from audiences and reviewers at its world premiere at the SXSW Film Festival in Austin, and the SubGenius movie stars and friends had a BLAST! Sandy Boone tricked us into parading down the street holding signs and preaching loudly to the unsaved, and also into performing an impromptu mini-devival in the outdoor yard of the George Washington Carver Museum. Stang reflexively recorded those. Also this episode unveils -- get ready -- NEW REVELATIONS DIRECT FROM "BOB" HIMSELF!!! -- collected by Rev. Elvis Martini and read by Rev. Stang. Also: the beloved but suppressed SubGenius forbidden science lecture (with sound effects) by Dr. Ahmed Fishmonger about the basic sub-para-atomic particle, THE MUTRON. And: Massive Hot Dog Recall.
Jeff Blankfort on Assange, Gaza, MoveOn & Iran
May 8, 2019, 1:03 p.m.
I begin by reviewing the situation of Julian Assange and Chelsea Manning and the importance of Wikileaks cables in exposing US role in destabilization of Venezuela. I note that dissecting personality of Assange has received more attention from media than contents of Wikileaks released cables.
I go from there to read a transcript of a chilling Interview on Israeli radio with Israeli general, Zvika Fogel justifying the murder of killing children who get too close to Gaza border fence and ask if this a shared value with the US that Pelosi talks about.
I then report on MoveOnâs endorsement of Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib for 2020 and how it signals that the Democrat Partyâs support of Israel is heading for the rocks.
I conclude with report from Israeli media, ignored by US press, citing Mossad as the source of US statements regarding threats from Iran with Bolton in the middle. CHECK IT OUT!
