1. I'm not supporting it, but if you mean this administration, then we are
supporting hate, bigotry and evil.

3. They are in terrible situation. Among other things, the interviewee
projected the number of Palestinian dead to the population of the US. He said it would be the equivalent of over 200,000 Americans dead during the last 3 years. An a lot of other information that I cannot transcribe correctly.

4. Great Show. Here's the link:
http://www.wnur.org/

live from the Occupied Territories, Mustafa Barghouthi, M.D., President of the Palestinian National Initiative (http://www.almubadara.org/en/), a democratic opposition movement, a group working for a nonviolent resolution to the troubles in Israel and Palestine.

Sibel Edmonds, an FBI translator in their language division, who says pre-9/11 documents weren't translated because the division was riddled with incompetence. She'll give us her take on 9/11 Commission testimony.

Kathy Ozer, executive director of the National Family Farm Coalition (http://www.nffc.net) will be on as her group, and groups like hers, commemorate the International Day of Farmers' Struggle which marks the April 17, 1996 massacre of landless people in Brazil.

from a payphone somewhere in Quebec, writer Tom Reeves who just returned from Haiti earlier this month. Reeves was also in Haiti shortly after the coup that overthrew President Jean-Bertrand Aristide in the early '90s. Tom's most recent article is entitled "Return to Haiti: The American Learning Zone" (http://www.counterpunch.com/reeves04142004.html).

live from Tel Aviv, Rayna Moss, an activist with the Israeli Committee for Mordechai Vanunu and for a Middle East Free of Atomic, Biological and Chemical Weapons (http://www.vanunu.freeserve.co.uk/). Vanunu was a technician at Dimona, Israel's nuclear installation when he discovered that the plant was producing nuclear weapons. He then gave his evidence to the press. The evidence showed that Israel had stockpiled up to two hundred nuclear warheads. Because of his story, Vanunu was sentenced to eighteen years in prison for 'treason' and 'espionage.' He is scheduled to be released on Wednesday.

5. This farmer is talking about GM corn which kills weevils
and wonders what it may do to butterflies.

Wasn't there an article out last week which said the population of butterflies is down by 50%? Could this GM corn be the reason?
