Diana Johnstone's Radical Take on the French Election
May 17, 2017, 11:54 a.m.
Long time Paris based journalist Diana Johnstone critiques the conventional liberal, left view in France and in the US that the victory of Emmanuel Macron over Marine Le Pen in the French election was necessary to prevent a âfascistâ from becoming president of France.
She argues that Le Pen's policies are far removed from those of her father, Jean Marie Le Pen, and what the National Front used to represent and were largely indistinguishable from those of Left candidate Jean-Luc Melenchon (who refused to endorse Macron) pointing out that Le Pen received 63% of the worker vote against Macron which allows the intellectual elites who backed the corporatist Macron and who pretend to be anti-fascist to dismiss the workers as fascists.
She also takes on the groups that call themselves âanti-faâ who have also appeared in the US and pretend to be the vanguard against fascism when the problem is not fascism but the excesses of globalism.
Of all the major candidates in the election, she points out, Macron was the most anti-labor. most hawkish towards Russia and pro-NATO, the strongest supporter of the EU and of the globalist agenda and received heavy backing from the economic elite
Jeff Blankfort:News/Ops: Lopez Rivera, Trump & Israel, Abbas Exposed
May 17, 2017, 11:43 a.m.
Blankfort begins with welcoming the release from prison of Chelsea Manning and Puerto Rican Independence hero, Oscar Lopez Rivera and recounts the background of the Puerto Rican independence movement and his 36 years in prison. He then reports on 30th day of Palestinian prisonersâ hunger strike and Israelâs unsuccessful efforts to undermine strike with video of strike leader Marwan Barghouti appearing to be eating a candy bar.
He then reports on Abbasâ meeting with Trump but more importantly, his meeting with Israeli journalists and businessmen committing the Palestinian Authority to maintain its security relationship with Israel that is, suppressing Palestinian resistance to Israeli occupation, no matter what. He follows that with comment by Israel lobbyist Martin Indyk praising the PAâs collaboration with Israel.
He then cites Abbasâs praise for the Oslo accords which he negotiated and his incomprehension of why anyone would oppose it followed by a quote from Israeli Oslo negotiator, Shlomo Gazit, who comparing it to the Munich agreement which allowed Hitler to take the Sudetenland from Czechoslovakia by saying the Israelis were the Germans and the Palestinians the Czechs.
He then switches to controversy over who has sovereignty over Jerusalemâs Western Wall with US officials in Jerusalem and National Security Adviser HR McMaster taking a different position than the White House which leaves Trumpâs planned visit to the wall up in the air.
He notes that the Saudis will welcome Trump before he visits Israel with a $40 billion gift to rebuild US infrastructure. He also notes that Gulf States ready to recognize Israel and allow overflights should Netanyahu make any gesture for peace with the Palestinians.
Finally, he reports that AIPAC is stronger than ever, getting all 100 senators to sign a letter to the UN to have it go easy on Israel.
He concludes with comment that what Lobby thinks about Trump will determine whether he goes or stays.

Stephen Zarlenga: The American Monetary Act (ONE of TWO)
May 16, 2017, 4:37 p.m.
This program was first produced in May 2009 - then and now it is a celebration of the work of an extraordinary man, Stephen Zarlenga, author of the book The Lost Science of Money and founder of the American Monetary Institute. Stephen Zarlenga died on April 25, 2017.
In 2009 the consequences of the financial crisis of 2007/08 with mortgage fraud and predatory lending had become obvious, both in the misery they caused to ordinary people and in the scale of the financial bailout that the banks and the bankers received.
Many called for better regulation - but a few visionaries asked for fundamental change of the monetary system. Zarlenga was a leading voice among them.
Working with Congressman Dennis Kucinich, Zarlenga helped develop legislative language for a major reform of the Federal Reserve system. That included plans to remove the privilege of banks to create money and transfer that power to democratically controllable institutions.
Dennis Kucinich and John Conyers introduced HR 2990, the N.E.E.D. Act of 2011, that stands for National Emergency Employment Defense. The proposed legislation was not acted upon. However HR 2990 is available to be re-introduced by anyone in Congress at any time.

Measure For Measure: Aclima's Davida Herzl
May 16, 2017, 12:05 p.m.
Galileo said we should, âMeasure what is measurable, and make measurable what is not so.â This week on Sea Change Radio, we take a look at two ways that people are trying to apply that wisdom to climate change. First, we speak to Davida Herzl, the CEO and co-founder of Aclima, a San Francisco-based company that refers to itself as a âFitBit for the planet.â Herzl explains how Aclimaâs technology works, how the company makes money, and the opportunities that lie ahead as the industry of measuring air pollution evolves. Then, we dig into the Sea Change Radio archives and re-visit our discussion with James Leaton, the research director of Carbon Tracker, a British nonprofit that analyzes the risks of fossil fuel investment and presents findings to the financial sector, with the objective of limiting future greenhouse gas emissions.
