Fortress On A Hill (FOH) Podcast

The United States has become synonymous with empire and endless war, American troops sit in 70% of the world's countries, and yet, most Americans don't know that. The military is joined disproportionately by a 'warrior caste’ whom carry this enormous burden, making a less diverse force and ensuring most of society doesn't see their sacrifice. And American tax dollars, funding hundreds of billions in unnecessary spending on global hegemony, are robbed from the domestic needs of ordinary Americans. We aim to change that. Join Henri, Keagan, Jovanni, Shiloh, and Monisha, six leftist US military veterans, as they discuss how to turn the tide against endless war and repair the damage America has caused abroad.

    Fortress Redux - The Sacking of Fallujah w/ Ross Caputi and Scott Spaulding – Ep 125

    I picked a great classic FOH episode to share with you all, especially with the ongoing Israeli sieges in Gaza, the West Bank, and Lebanon. Ross Caputi and Scott Spaulding join us to discuss The Sacking of Fallujah, both the event and the book which Ross co-wrote.; Fallujah is seen by the American empire as a great victory over the burgeoning Sunni insurgency during the early years of Operation Iraqi Freedom, but for the people of Fallujah and their descendants, it is nothing less than the entire destruction and poisoning of their people and land. Birth defects are rampant among the population, spurred by the use of heavy munitions like white phosphorus, depleted uranium, and thermobaric weapons, which have destroyed the environment for generations. Ross' book, The Sacking of Fallujah: A People's History, is a great primer on the subject, as well as a detailed microcosm of the war in Iraq and its tactics. I consider it a must-buy.
