Kevin Barrett

Broadcast live Fri. 3/30, 8 to 10 pm Eastern on Revolution.Radio then archived HERE. Today is Good Friday, a major Christian holiday. Many people in the Christian world take the day off. But why not make every Friday a holiday, just like Saturday (the Jewish Sabbath) and Sunday (the Christian “Lord’s Day”)? After all, Muslims have congregational prayers on Friday, and in many Muslim countries people take the day off, or at least the afternoon off, to make it easier for people to go to mosque. This proposal would give Muslims equal treatment—and benefit non-Muslims too. Did you know that the…

Graeme MacQueen on “Triggering War. A Manufactured ‘Catalytic Event’ Which Will Initiate An All Out War? Are We Going to Let this Happen Again?”

Kevin Barrett

Listen HERE. Graeme MacQueen’s new article “Triggering War…”  begins: “As we watch Western governments testing their opponents – today Iran, the next day the DPRK, and then Russia and China – we hold our breaths. We are waiting with a sense of dread for the occurrence of a catalytic event that will initiate war. Now is the time to reflect on such catalytic events, to understand them, to prepare for them.” In this interview we discuss the Empire’s increasingly desperate struggle for global dominance, and the signs that it may be moving toward a “hot war” phase that would be…

William Engdahl on “Manifest Destiny: Democracy as Cognitive Dissonance”

Kevin Barrett

Listen HERE. Leading geopolitical analyst William Engdahl discusses his new book Manifest Destiny: Democracy as Cognitive Dissonance: “I decided to write this book because every spot in the world where there’s a regime that doesn’t click their heels and bow down on their knees to Washington—to George W. Bush, Obama, or the Trump Administration—they get targeted for regime change. They get targeted for destabilization and destruction (supposedly for the sake of ‘democracy’)…So I decided to do an in-depth analysis of what this fake democracy monster is.” The book covers the Empire’s rape of Russia and China, its bust-up of Yugoslavia, its sponsoring…

Sander Hicks on truth in politics; J. Glenn Evans launches his revolutionary novel Wayfarers

Kevin Barrett

Broadcast live Fri. 3/23, 8 to 10 pm Eastern on Revolution.Radio then archived HERE. First hour: Sander Hicks, NYC 9/11 truth and peace supporting congressional candidate, recently got some amazingly favorable coverage for his pro-9/11-truth, pro-Palestine campaign in a local newspaper! In this show we discuss and debate some of the issues raised in my recent essay on anti-Semitism. (Sander says an acquaintance of his, an associate of Political Research Associates operative  Spencer Sunshine, is working on a computer algorithm to try to keep people like me out of the Left Forum!) Sander questions Dr. Gideon Polya’s estimate that 32 million…

The Saker on Anglo-Zionist Empire’s escalating lies & hysteria

Kevin Barrett

Listen HERE. The Saker is one of the our best geopolitical analysts. In this interview we begin with issues from his recent article “When dealing with a bear hubris is suicidal,” which discusses the increasing absurdity of such obvious Western false flags as the “Skripal nerve gas attack”—par for the course for “an Empire built (and maintained) on lies, accepted on the basis of ignorance, justified by hypocrisy and energized by hysterics. This is what the ‘Western world’ stands for nowadays.” Is the Empire’s pathological behavior rooted in Western arrogance and millenarianism dating back to medieval times? Is the current…

“DC Dave” Martin on Thomas Merton’s suspicious death; Jeff Brown and Thomas Powell on US biowarfare crimes against Korea

Kevin Barrett

Broadcast live 8 to 10 pm Eastern, http://Revolution.Radio  then archived HERE  First hour: DC Dave Martin‘s new essay The Hot Potato of Thomas Merton’s Death suggests that one of the greatest religious thinkers of the 20th century was assassinated by…well, the term “usual suspects” is getting overused. David Martin is the co-author, along with Hugh Turley, of the new book The Martyrdom of Thomas Merton: An Investigation. The most influential Catholic of the 20th century, Thomas Merton was becoming one of the world’s most powerful voices opposing nuclear weapons, and the Vietnam war (indeed all war), when he suddenly died in 1968…

5th Annual 9/11 Physics Debate: And the winner is….David Chandler!

Kevin Barrett

Watch the video HERE ANETA.org‘s Fifth Annual 9/11 Physics Debate, held every year on March 14 (Einstein’s birthday), once again was won by the contestant representing the pro-9/11-truth position: science teacher David Chandler of 911SpeakOut.org and coordinator of Scientists for 9/11 Truth. As always, the victory was by default. (During the five year history of the 9/11 Physics Debate, not one qualified scientist has stepped forward to defend the official story of what happened to the three World Trade Center skyscrapers.) In this “debate” David Chandler explains in clear, straightforward language why we know that World Trade Center Building 7 and the Twin…

Sami al-Arian on Tariq Ramadan; Rabia’s song for Gaza

Kevin Barrett

Listen HERE. First half hour: Dr. Sami al-Arian joins us to discuss the persecution of Tariq Ramadan, who has been imprisoned in France under circumstances that suggest a political witch hunt. For details, and how you can help, see the Free Tariq Ramadan website and FaceBook page. Dr. Sami al-Arian was America’s most effective Muslim organizer-activist from the early 1990s until 9/11— after which he was brought up on absurdly bogus charges by more or less the same people who had attacked the World Trade Center and the Pentagon. (The story of how Dr. al-Arian put George Bush in the…

Paul Craig Roberts on Trump-Russia

Kevin Barrett

Paul Craig Roberts, former Assistant Secretary of the Treasury and Wall St. Journal Editor, has published an interesting analysis of what he calls “Mueller’s Comic Book Indictment.” https://www.paulcraigroberts.org/2018… According to Dr. Roberts, the Trump-Russia scandal was “trumped up” by Deep State militarists to pre-empt rapprochement with Russia and preserve military-industrial complex profits. But their efforts, he says, are failing; the Mueller indictments against a Russian clickbait factory are absurdly anticlimactic and feature nothing whatsoever indicating  election meddling by the Russian government, nor Trump administration complicity in any malfeasance.   Though I think Dr. Roberts may harbor an overly optimistic view of…

Kevin Barrett

Broadcast live Friday March 9, 8 to 10 pm Eastern at Revolution.Radio then archived HERE First hour: John Morrow discusses Cambridge Scholars’ new publication Islam and the People of the Book, which he edited and to which I contributed. In this conversation John and I discuss the relatively few issues that divide Christians from Muslims, and the much larger number of issues that unite us.
