1:00:00

Harvey is back and shares his participation at the 2025 Nuclear Deterrence Summit just outside Washington DC, where the talk of actual deterrence was mostly absent. However, the talk of a nuclear love-fest was clear. Harvey shares some of the stories of other anti-war participants at the Bus Boys and Poets gathering and reflects on why this summit even took place. After all, it was shortly thereafter that President Trump talked about de-nuclearization and cutting the military budget in half, which was such a positive in the wake of Trump's first month in office. We finish with Sly and Stand.…

58:59

With Trump's and Musk's war on DEI, Harvey and Jim revisit the discussion we had on Prince Edward County in Virginia when white supremacists decide to close all public schools for five years rather than segregate in the 1950's. There are more comparisons with what Trump and Musk are trying to do now with their war on DEI than you would expect. The problem is they are trying to expand what happened in Prince Edward County to more than just education and also take it nationwide. To finish we hear Sam Cooke's plea for change.…

VetsforPeace with Rich Freeman, Schiller Inst., on development for peace in Mid East 58:55

58:55

Richard Freeman joins the show to discuss the OASIS plan as developed by the Schiller Institute to try to bring peace to the Middle East. We know that peace has not been achieved by all the methods whether diplomatic or militaristic and things seem to be getting worse. So why not try the OASIS plan which would be a cooperative effort to bring salt water in, desalinate it, and then provide clean fresh water to the Palestinians, Israelis, Jordanians, Egyptians, Syrians, and more to irrigate, drink, and what water does. Then Rich discusses a 60-year-old plan to bring water, that would rain into the ocean, from Alaska to the southwest US to help irrigate and support sustainable vegetation and reduce the impact of the fires.…

Veterans for Peace, Matt Hoh joins us to give a balanced reflection on Jimmy Carter 1:00:00

1:00:00

Jimmy Carter passed away and if you listen to the reflections either he was a saint or a sinner. Matt Hoh joins us to give a balanced view of Jimmy Carter from his troublesome Presidency and what was at the core of his policies to the humanitarian who called Israel an apartheid state and wielded a hammer for Habitat rather than a champagne glass at Martha's vineyard. As a result, Matt takes us into the depth of the US empire and why our Presidents should probably be called emperors instead of presidents and why Carter's legacy should be more about post-presidency.…

We welcome back KJ Noh for two discussions. First, we talk about Han Kang who won the Nobel Prize for Literature, and why this reflects the Nobel Committee's only chance to comment on the genocide in Gaza. Then we turn to the chaos that is going on in South Korea with the President calling for Marshall Law, the legislature rejecting that, and the hundreds of thousands of protestors taking to the streets. There is more here than our press and our government would like to admit. We finish with the song the protestors sing during the protests.…

Veterans for Peace 2024 a little retrospective but mostly looking ahead to challenges 1:00:00

12 weeks sitten1:00:00

1:00:00

Harvey and Jim reflect a little on the last year but primarily look at the importance of VFP radio/podcasts along with other independent news sources as our national media fail to provide us the information that we need to take on the powers and the problems that are engulfing the world. We look at media failures from covering up the Christmas Truce, to a Palestinian lawsuit, Admiral Buchanan talking about winning a nuclear war, and the most listened-to news outlet worldwide letting us down by covering for genocide. Then we turn to the VFP power structure to provide us with some hope and direction. VFP President Susan Schnall, Vice President Josh Shurley, and Program Coordinator Mike Ferner provide us with information and tools on how we need to approach this coming year as a member of VFP but also as an organization that is looking to collaborate with other peace organizations to raise our voices and efforts to make a difference.…

Bruce Carruthers member of Veterans for Peace and expert on VA Health Care joins us to talk about the damage that is outlined in Project 2025 on veterans' health care and veterans' benefits. We need to be worried if you get your health care from the VA or if you are a family member of someone who does especially for those ailments that can not be directly attributed. Thus the Pact Act and coverage of ailments linked to burn pits and Agent Orange could be in jeopardy. Their goal is to make veteran's health care a profit-making business through privatization.…
