[Medea Benjamin] The Selling of the Ukraine War
February 24 marks the first-year anniversary of the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Moscow’s action is a clear violation of international law. But it was not unprovoked. The NATO military alliance has expanded its bases right up to Russia’s borders. The U.S. and its NATO allies are sending more and more arms to Ukraine. Last week it was Patriot missiles. This week it’s tanks. What will it be next week? Fighter jets? The steady escalation of weaponry is music to the ears of the military-industrial complex. The longer the war goes on the more their cash registers go ka-ching. The continuation of the war is getting a hard sell from the armchair pundits and retired generals and their corporate media enablers. What will it take to stop the war?
Customer Reviews
the best
probably the best weekly podcast in existence.
Every episode is worth listening to.
I have listened to Alternative Radio since its beginnings. I used to order tapes to share with friends. I love that I can access and share the programs now via internet. It is a way to learn real overview of what is happening in our world today.
Accessibility
I wrote David asking what level would I have to subscribe at to have access to entire catalog as almost every podcast does for nothing… no response from his cloistered confines… David, there has to be a middle ground we can come to out of need to get information and your need to make a living.
