News and chat about society, with a soundboard and propaganda mixed in. On this episode, I was completely solo! This is Season 5, at the show’s brand new venue: the beautiful Lorena Bobbitt Theatre. It’s the HD era! Some of the things covered include:
– Danish Islam revert goes on spree in Norway with bow and arrows

– Protests in Beirut, and the murder of six protesters by sniper rifles
– The long lasting consequences of the Beirut explosion
– Israeli housing developments being constructed in West Bank and East Jerusalem
– British MP David Amess stabbed at a constituency meeting
– Four Russian tourists discovered dead at an Albanian resort
– Conflict flares up between the Kosovo government and ethnically Serbian Kosovars
– Three movie reviews: No Time to Die, It (2017), and Hubie Halloween
– The Guatemala Genocide: the prolonged genocide and asymmetric civil war between military dictators and indigenous farmers
– CIA and United Fruit Company intervention in Guatemala
– The series of in-fighting, rigged elections, and coups in Guatemala
– Right wing death squads with full immunity to kill anyone the perceived to be an “insurgent” or “collaborator”
– Complete massacres of Maya villages because they could only be labeled as collaborators
– Many people abducted and “disappeared” in Guatemala City after curfew implemented
