    June 25th, 2007 | Politics | | Comments »

    Talk Nation Radio discusses John Pilger’s book, Freedom Next Time Resisting Empire, published by Nation Books and recently out in paperback (Bantam) and note the patterns established by US, UK and Israeli leaders interviewed by Pilger as they have tried to defend brutal and illegal policies. Pilger sees momentum toward a boycott of Israel. He is in the US to promote his book. We reached him by phone to Chicago.

    Middle East expert Ali Abunimah’s recent book, One Country, a Proposal to End the Israeli-Palestinian Impass is due out in paperback this summer. We discuss the funding of Fatah and Hamas and the history of these Palestinian organizations and US/Israeli policies. Ali Abunimah has described the ‘new’ Fatah as a proxy force working for the US and Israel in the tradition of the Nicaraguan Contras.

    The music is by Fritz Heede who produced the sound track for the film, The Oil Factor.
