To end Syrian conflict, stop destabilizing Syria

Stephen Gowans discusses two of his late-2016 articles concerning Washington's campaign to remove the Syrian government. As elsewhere, the U.S. has cultivated reactionary forces within the Islamic world to counter Arab efforts at self-determination and liberation. The U.S. use of Saudi-aligned terrorists to remove Syria's government reflects Washington's century-long campaign against independent or socialist governments. Recognizing the Syrian counter-revolution promoted by NATO is an important step towards ending war in the country.

JANUARY 11, 2017 - WHAT REALLY HAPPENED TO MLK

Cheryl shares the speech given by Dr. William Pepper at the Left Forum 2016 on the Deep State Panel on Assassinations. As our local communities honor MLK this month, you can bet that none of them will mention the 1999 trial that proved that the murder of Dr. King was an act of state. They won't mention that James Earl Ray was innocent, or that we now know who really murdered MLK. On this show Dr. Pepper talks about the evidence he has gathered over the last 35 years and has included in his new book "The Plot to Kill King". I highly recommend reading this new book that has even more evidence than Dr. Pepper's last book "An Act of State". King did not die from the gun shot wounds. Read the book to find out what happened in the hospital to finally kill King. The full video can be seen on Youtube by searching for William Pepper and Left Forum 2016, or on www.noliesradio.org

Phil Giraldi on Alleged Russian Hacking and US Hypocrisy

Former intelligence agent, Giraldi was interviewed immediately following Donald Trump’s press conference and pointed to inconsistency in Trump’s position but suggested that his more amicable approach to Russia runs up against the neocons and warmongers in both parties who have been pushing for a confrontation with Moscow, being still mired in the anti-Soviet mindset of a past generation. The discussion centered on Giraldi’s article in Unz Review for Jan.10., “Washington Invented Hacking and Intervening in Elections.” Giraldi notes that the size of Russia’s economy is the same as that of Italy and whereas the US has hundreds of military bases all over the globe, Russia has one outside of its borders and that’s in Syria. He notes that in the name of “democracy promotion” the US has overthrown legitimate governments, going back to Mosadegh in Iran in 1953, the real goal of which has been to serve US global interests. He points out that this has been the case in Latin America, Asia and Africa, as well. Giraldi reviews the recent history of Ukraine and how the US supported coup against a legally elected government has brought into power ultra-right wing forces whose role the US pretended was minimal. The discussion also covered the primary affection of the neocons being Israel and that their actions are usually taken to benefit what they perceive as Israel’s interest, referring back to PNAC necon Paul Wolfowitz who lobbied for overthrowing Saddam Hussein in the early days of the GW Bush administration, claiming that Saddam was paying off Palestinians who attacked Israelis.

Jeff Blankfort/NewsOps: Hacking Fiasco,Israel Lobby Exposed in UK

Blankfort reviewed the conclusions of the “intelligence” agencies report on alleged Russian hacking of the Democratic National Committee and John Podesta’s emails and found it ludicrous that its most important finding was that the Putin and the Russians supported Trump and opposed Clinton, that the Russians were trying to undermine Americans’ faith in their electoral system, as if that wasn’t widely acknowledged and denigrate the reputation of Hillary Clinton as if she had one left to lose. He also notes that NPR (National Propaganda Radio) morning and afternoon news programs have devoted at least one story every hour to attacking Russia and/or Putin, whether for the hacking or emails or charges of aggression, real or threatened against its neighbors while unlike the NY Times, for example, raised questions about the validity of the agencies’ findings, albeit buried far down in its coverage. He also notes the latest proof of Israel’s ownership of Congress and its control of the media by describing the bi-partisan attack on the Obama administration for abstaining in the Security Council on the resolution condemning Israel and failing to mention or interview the one senator, Diane Feinstein, who defended the abstention. He then quotes Sen JW Fulbright’s comments 40 years ago about AIPAC’s power over Congress and why he was their first target; for holding hearings in 1963 that revealed that Israel was illegally using donations from American Jews to pay for pro-Israel propaganda in the US through the American Zionist Council. This led President Kennedy to call for his brother RFK’s Justice Dept. for force the AZC to register as a foreign agent but its lawyers prevented that from happening until an assassin’s bullet in Dallas removed the problem. Blankfort mentions how Grant Smith of Inst. For Research: Middle East Policy, tried to re-open Bobby Kennedy’s efforts at the Justice Dept. but found it to be as much under Israel’s thumb as Congress. His book, Smith’s book, “Foreign Agents: The American Israel Public Affairs Committee from the 1963 Fulbright Hearings to the 2005 Espionage Scandal,” is the definitive and only book on the subject and can be ordered online, as can his latest, “Big Israel, How Israel’s Lobby Moves America,” which supplies the details and the tax-exempt fund raising for Israel that the media ignores.

Eva Bartlett vs. War Propaganda

Syrians have endured and resisted for six years in the face of a concerted regime-change campaign that punishes civilians for supporting their elected government. Eva Bartlett, who is coming to Hamilton on January 24-25, reports on her first-hand encounters with civilians and the war zones. We need to pressure our governments to stop fueling the conflict in Syria so that civilians can rebuild on their own terms.

Eric Schlosser - Do You Really Want to Eat That? (Archive)

Fast food is what many people eat in America, and increasingly in other countries. It is advertised to be fun, tasty, and easily available. Americans spend more money annually on fast food than is spent on higher education. Eric Schlosser is our guest in this archive edition.  He’s the author of Fast Food Nation: The Dark Side of the All-American Meal. Schlosser writes that it is not only what is served for human consumption that is the problem, but the art of mass-marketing to children through organized promotions and ads for the products—in school busses, hallways, and even bathroom stalls—has serious side effects on society.

Ice Core Climate Records of the World: - Prof. Lonnie Thompson

Lonnie Thompson is University Distinguished Professor at Ohio State University in the School of Earth Sciences and the Byrd Polar Research Center. He is the leading paleo-scientist who drilled and preserved ice cores from high mountain glaciers while others focussed on Greenland and Antarctica. In 1952 the Danish geophysicist Willi Dansgaard made a discovery that opened up a completely new field of research. He found that the amount of heavy oxygen isotopes in rain correlates with the temperature at the location where the precipitation was formed. But more important in preparation for debates with climate change deniers is the record of CO2 that is also preserved in the ice cores. The correlation of temperature rise and decrease with increasing and decreasing CO2 and methane content have become one of the most important proofs for climate change. Ice cores also show the recent extraordinary increase in the amount of CO2 since the industrial revolution and the ever escalating burning of fossil fuels. Today ice core records exist going back 800,000 years for Antarctica and 123,000 years for Greenland. They show that never in those 800,000 years have the concentrations of CO2 been as high and rising as rapidly as today. Thompson was undeterred by the doubts expressed by his teachers and mentors. Willi Dansgaard told him that human beings were physically unable to do ice core drilling at altitudes of 18,000 plus feet, that no equipment existed that could be brought to the tops of the inland glaciers and that it would be extremely difficult to get the ice cores down the mountain before they melted. Thompson and his team built a solar powered ice core drill and have now retrieved cores in 16 countries on 61 expeditions. This collection is priceless because nobody will ever be able to duplicate his work because over 90% of the glaciers he worked on are melting.

Incoming EPA Chief: Fox In The Henhouse

When someone sues an organization repeatedly and then gets put in charge of that agency it's a pretty classic example of the fox guarding the henhouse. Welcome to the bizarro-world of the Trump Administration where the fossil fuel industry's favorite son, Oklahoma Attorney General Scott Pruitt, is poised to run the Environmental Protection Agency. The appointment of a climate change denier like Pruitt to run the EPA affirms, as NYU journalism professor Jay Rosen has put it, that "the US government is officially done with being evidence-based." On this week's Sea Change Radio, Mother Jones reporter Rebecca Leber gives us a closer look at the new head of the EPA, what his appointment means politically, what the repercussions could be for the climate and how states may be able to protect the environment locally.
