NEW ARTICLE about the Shortwave Report in the Boulder Weekly by Gavin Dahl-

 

     This week's show features stories from NHK World Radio Japan, Radio Deutsche-Welle, Radio Havana Cuba, and Sputnik Radio.

     From JAPAN-  On weekday mornings NHK presents a feature called Insight, here are two from this week. The first is a reaction to the speech Obama gave at his visit to Hiroshima, where he described the bombing as "death fell from the sky," without implying any American responsibility. The second Insight is about French Polynesia, where for 30 years the French government conducted nuclear weapons tests without acknowledging health risks to the people and environment.

     From GERMANY-  A court in Argentina convicted 15 ex-military officials for conspiring to kill dissidents in the CIA directed Operation Condor. In Nigeria militants have been attacking oil pipelines in protest. A far-right leader in Germany expressed his racism against Africans, and Angela Merkel and Francois Hollande appealed for european unity. The Economy minister of Germany spoke out against the Transatlantic Trade And Investment Partnership, and polls in England predict that the referendum on Britain leaving the EU likely to win. The lead negotiator for the Syrian opposition resigned, and at least 1000 refugees drowned in the Mediterranean Sea last week. Turkish President Erdogan made further threats to Germany if they recognize the Armenian genocide as a genocide, and he also told Muslim families to cease using contraceptives and called birth control treason.

      From CUBA- The Organization for American States, or OAS, is targeting Venezuelan President Maduro as a threat to democracy, possibly requiring outside intervention. Then a Viewpoint on the final presidential election in Peru this Sunday- in some perspectives this is a contest between two ultra-right-wing candidates, adding to the shift to the right in Latin American politics.

      From RUSSIA- George Galloway interviewed British journalist Peter Oborne about his new book called "Not The Chilcot Report." Sir John Chilcot is the chairman of a public inquiry into the British role in the 2003 invasion of Iraq. It is intended to reveal if the public were deceived by the government, especially Tony Blair. George and Peter discuss the lies as well as the others who promoted the war, specifically the Parliament and the media- and are similar deceptions perpetuating the current wars in the Middle East and North Africa?

 

There is an article about the Shortwave Report by Cassandra Roos on line -

I was interviewed for an informative weekly radio show Mediageek, available at http://radio.mediageek.net 

 

  All that plus times and frequencies for listening at home. It's free to rebroadcast, please notify me if you're airing it and haven't notified me in the last month, please mention the website if you only air a portion. If you just want to listen and have a slow connection, try the streaming version- lower sound quality but good enough and way easier if you don't have a high-speed internet connection. If streaming is a problem because of your slow connection, download the smaller file- it takes 20 minutes or less, and will play swell in any mp3 player application (RealPlayer, Winamp, Quicktime, iTunes, etc) you have on your computer. 

TIME SLOT on KZYX! This program will be aired on Sunday afternoon at 4pm (PST) on KZYX/Z Philo CA, you might be able to stream via < http://www.kzyx.org > 

 

I hope you'll listen and air this if you're connected with a radio station. I am still wondering how to get financially compensated for the 25 hours I put into this program weekly- any ideas are appreciated. Any stations rebroadcasting this (or listeners) are welcome to donate for production costs. You can do so through the website. Many thanks to those that have donated! No Guilt! (maybe a little)
