Wednesday night's SHM program guide, 6 Nov. Hi everyone, 7 oct was the first anniversary of a major shift in war on Palestine by Israeli occupying forces which has dominated our lives for the entire year. The next couple of weeks we will hear many analyses on this topic. These shows are educational and informative on the current events in Palestine, Lebanon, Iran, Sudan, and the world. Now, we know that Palestinians have no partner in peace negotiations!The ICJ has ruled that Palestinian territory is illegally occupied. And now, the UNGA has overwhelmingly backed and voted with Palestinian resolution to end Israeli occupation: of course Israel, US, and a few other countries, including Europeans, voted against it. The Harris/Walz campaign continues to lauding the narrative and myths of rape on Oct 7th and two-state solution while Israeli Occupying Forces (IOF) conduct genocide in Palestine. The American Empire keeps breaking “The rules-based international order”--do as I say not as I do— its imposition on the rest of countries, to maintain its hegemony; the global South is determined to change it to “Law-Based International Order” to hold every country accountable. These are trying times for humanity: war, famine, climate change. What’s our strategy to counter fascism, genocide? Do we have a plan for this year’s election? Post election? Are we ready to defend the democratic institutions if fascism reigns in the halls of power? Is social democracy one option to counter fascism? These are issues of our times that require our utmostattention! Hours 1 & 2) Chris Hedges show.
