Equal Opportunity Bullying: Sam opens with a commentary on a Wednesday NPR segment on bullying. US bulllying other countries, that is. We are sure you will be interested in learning how North Korea became the third prong of the "Axis of Evil". Hint: Think Condi Rice, Dick Cheney and religion. As a bonus, we also throw in references to Faiz Shakir's "To Provoke War: Cheney Considered Dressing Navy Seals as Iranians and Shooting at Them", a discussion of Seymour Hersh's recent speech, published July 31 in
www.alternet.org.
Brilliant Investigation or Giant Cover-Up? You decide, as we explore different possibilities in connection with Bruce Ivins and the anthrax attacks as outlined by Sheldon Rampton's "The Anthrax Cover-Up", Paul Craig Roberts' "The Anthrax Attacks and the Assault on Civil Liberties", both published this week in
www.counterpunch.org, and Pete Yost's "FBI used agressive tactics in anthrax probe", published Wednesday in
www.phillyburbs.com. This is serious stuff. Believe us on this.
Sometimes Justice Ain't: This segment is a must-listen. We give several examples, including AP writer Mary Foster's "Judge removed from 'Jena Six' cases; defense attorneys claim he made biased comments", published Friday.
Thanks for listening. Please tell a friend or two about us. We'll be back.
