TB 170616 Who Won the War?

This week’s show starts right off out the gate by exposing the Great Wall Street chop shop! Next, we describe a couple of examples of the Machine distracting people using tempests in teapots. For the ‘Irony of the Week’ feature, we point out one of many ironies (and one of many roadblocks) to ‘developing’ Africa. We describe the many advantages (and a couple of the disadvantages) to living in Canada. Then, the Toothless Old Grandpa makes another appearance and tells us about fake news about fake news that is fake. Then — for the feature story this week, we ask the musical question: “Who is winning in the War on Drugs?” Dirty laundry galore this week. You occasionally may need to hold your nose.

Out of the Woods - Show #376 - 6-24-17

This version of the program is divided into 6 segments so broadcasters who desire to use this content can insert your station info, etc. The segments vary in length. Out of the Woods is an earthy, wires and wood, mostly acoustic program featuring some of the best new and established artists from the worlds of folk, bluegrass, singer-songwriters, alt.country, Americana, classic country, old-time, Celtic, and everything that falls in between. The show is an unpredictable mix flowing like a river between moods, often with an edge or in a melancholy minor key. On occasion, Out of the Woods features interviews and live in-studio performances with national and international touring musicians. Past guests have included artists such as Bela Fleck, Si Kahn, Brown Bird, Dana Robinson, Steve Gillette & Cindy Mangsen, Kate MacLeod, Bill Bourne, Karl Shiflett, Rachel Bissex, Darryl Purpose, Bow Thayer, Cosy Sheridan and many others. Out of the Woods grew out of Jon 'Chip' Colcord's former acoustic programs, The Song Swap and Music For The Mountain, separate folk and bluegrass programs which aired in New Hampshire during the 1990s. As a child, Colcord grew up a ravenous music fan with an ear for both rock and folk. All of these influences converge on Out of the Woods to bring you a mix which is as much on the edge as it is down home. Folk music with a rock 'n' roll soul

Donald Drumpf Theatre Vol. 22

Donald Drumpf Theatre Vol. 22 Rockin' Donald. The show is a make-believe listen to what might happen if a reality television star became the leader of the free world. The show features news clips and songs cut in a way similar to Dickie Goodman, with a Richard Foreman-meets-mashup style. Contributions are welcome to info@wgxc.org. It's a fake news show about the absurdity of the past week that's actually radio theatre, so the news is true.

Chrystia Freeland Defiantly Obeys Trump

After Trump scolded fellow NATO members for not pulling their weight, Canada’s Foreign Minister delivered a policy speech reported as critical of the Donald, which turned out to be an elaborate rationalization of why Canada was going to do exactly what they’d been told to do. It was an Alice in Wonderland moment. According to the minister, the “indispensable nation” was laying aside it’s mantle of leadership and little-big Canada would have fill the gap until the giant reawakens to its duties. As Murray Dobbin explains, the Freeland speech is an exercise in malarkey.

Paul Pillar on Trump and Saudis vs. Iran and Qatar

Former CIA analyst Paul Pillar, author of two recent articles for National Interest and Consortium News, ISIS Attack Exposes Anti-Iran Propaganda and Trump Fans the Mideast Fires of Hate, explores the origin of US antagonism towards Iran and false labeling of it as the “leading state sponsor of terrorism”in the years following the World Trade Center attack despite Teheran’s efforts to join the US in fighting terrorism, citing GW Bush's speech declaring Iran part of an “axis of terror” with No. Korea and Iraq, despite the fact that the latter was its enemy. He points out that Iran, far from being a sponsor of terror, has been actually fighting ISIS, mainly in Iraq but also in Syria and that its most recent link to terrorism may have been the attack on the Khobar Towers in Saudi Arabia in 1996 which killed 19 US servicemen and which a US Court blamed Iran. He notes that Trump, while demonizing Iran, has given the Saudis a free hand to do what it wishes in the region against its Shia neighbor and has endorsed the Saudis blockade of its leading political competitor in the Sunni world, Qatar, which is home to the largest US base in the region. This flies in the face of Secretary of State Tillerson;s efforts and those of the Pentagon to de-escalate the confrontation. Two other points of contention between the Saudis and Qatar are the latter's support of the Muslim Brotherhood whose largely peaceful means of incorporating Islam with politics the Saudis see as a threat and its hosting of Al-Jazeera which the Saudis and other Gulf monarchies have long seen as “a thorn in their side.” Pillar notes that the oil companies have not been playing a major role in formulating US regional policies and that they would prefer being able to do business with Iran, not restricted by sanctions which, Pillar points out, are about to be increased under new Senate legislation

Jeff Blankfort: News/Op: EXCLUSIVE: Why Israel Needed 67 War

Blankfort opens by questioning mantra that “Iran is leading state sponsor of terrorism, then moves on to expose Senate support for the real leading state terrorist sponsor, Saudi Arabia and Tuesday's vote against blocking new arms sales to the KSA, quoting Sen. McConnell, Corker and McCain. He notes that approving arms for the Saudis in the midst of a rising cholera epidemic in Yemen is unconscionable and that the US public is complicit. He then reports on a joint televised meeting between the Israeli Knesset that was streamed to supporters of Israel in the US while the news of which was totally blocked by the US media as was the 50th anniversary of Israel's attack on the USS Liberty. This is further proof that Israel and its supporters in the US determine what is and what isn't reported about Israel in the US media, citing previous censorship of reports about Friends of Israel Defense Force fundraisers. He then discloses the main reason for the Six Day War, Israel's need to scare Jews into rallying around Israel in the face of non-existent Arab threats at a time when most Jews in the US had lost interest in it. He concludes by citing Ray McGovern's analysis of Megyn Kelly's interview with Vladimir Putin and exposes the false claim that 17 US intel agencies concluded that Russia hacked the Democrats. Of note is Putin's raising of the possibility that US “special services” might have killed JFK.
