This show is SO important. We share information about Conscientious Objection Status, how to get it and who is there to help you get it. We borrowed this important and timely show from Margaret Flowers of the Clearing the Fog Podcast. Here she interviews Mike Prysner, Executive Director of the Center on Conscience and War on their efforts to help anyone research and pursue CO status. This is after she interviews James Branum of the Military Law Task Force on the challenges and strategies of refusing illegal orders.

Craig Bardo friend of the show joins us to discuss, what else, our miscalculations of the people and commitment of the people of Iran and our manipulation by Israel. We realize how the US empire is in jeopardy and that Israel has lost any claim of a moral high ground.

Reverend David Gierlach, Vicar, Emmanuel Episcopal Church,HI joins us to discuss the manipulation and misinterpretation of the message of Jesus to reflect the civil society of the US and the dangers that brings when incorporated into our military.

Just think for a moment if an American elementary school was struck by an off-course missile from Iran and just think about how Americans would respond to that, how outraged we would be. That is a quote from Bill Astore, Senior Fellow from the Eisenhower Media Network who joins us to talk our war of choice or Israeli manipulation and how it is not in our interest. We also have a small salute to Country Joe MacDonald.

Matt Hoh, Senior Fellow at the Eisenhower Media Network joins us to explain yet another motive Israel has in manipulating Trump into attacking Iran. Then on to the Iranian response and their motive to make the world pay.

Craig Bardo, member of Veterans for Peace, Party for Socialism and Liberation, teacher at Nashville State College, and more , joins us to discuss how our policies against Cuba have been used on the Black Community here in the US for centuries. We also discuss our need for solidarity with the Cuban people and what that would look like right here. No Kings is not enough.

K.J. Noh returns to the show and this time he is talking about the prospects of US war on Iran, will trump or won't trump. Of course the smart thing is don't do it but is trump under too much pressure from netanyahu. Then we turn to Marco Rubio at the Munich Security conference and his revisionism and mendacity as he proposed a New Western Century.

Greg Mello, Executive Director of the Los Alamos Study Group joins us to discuss the expiration of the New Start treaty and the impact that expiration is going to have around the globe and right here in the US. We are in for difficult and dangerous times but Greg also wants us to look for any silver lining and thus he points several out.

What is an illegal order?  Terry Lodge of VFP joins us to explain.  Why do service people need that information?  We share clips from Danny Haiphong  with Ali Alizadeh and KJ Noh on trump's threats of war with Iran.

Harvey and Jim discuss the domestic and international thugery being displayed by the trump administration. They start off with an update (????) on Minneapolis and then switch to clips from Jeffrey Sachs and John Mearsheimer from Breaking Points.
