NU students demand a Cease Fire in Gaza and University divestment from Israel and other War profiting corporations. Setting up their encampment in Deering Meadow early Thursday morning they were initially accosted with impromptu administration prohibitions and then Campus Police who aggressively started to remove them but backed off. One report I heard was City of Evanston Police who were on scene intervened on behalf of the students. The encampment was reestablished, expanded and protected by supporters. When I arrived a 3:30 pm the crowd in the meadow was several hundred students plus additional community members. Students were not inclined to give interviews other than through their official spokes person. I spoke with a community member who was observing from the side walk.

This week, on the Global Research News hour, following the many climate related events as part of the recent Earth Day celebrations, we have decided to take a closer look at the generations long warnings and alarmism connected to climate change and explore the prospect that the UN and the elites who have orchestrated a lot of this activity may have other devious motives not connected to saving the planet, except of course for themselves. In our fist half hour, we have a chat with Tom Nelson, A climate skeptic and producer of the recent film Climate the Movie: The Cold Truth. Then in our second half hour, we speak with Jacob Nordangard about his recent book: Rockefeller, Controlling the Game, exploring how one of the most influential figures on the planet was able to both scientifically and politically anchor the climate issue.

Iran went by the book: After the attack on their embassy in Damascus they took the matter to the UNSC where the US, France, and UK refused to condemn Israel's violation of international law and the UN Charter. Therefore Iran put Israel on notice for a retaliatory attack which was then carried out, in which military bases were struck. Israel continued its rogue nation ways, in imitation of its master's behavior. Claims were made that Israel staged a 3 drone attack in central Iran. Note the difference: Israel itself has yet to declare it attacked Iran. Iran says they do not know whether Israel attacked or not. Israel cannot even own up to what it did or did not do. No wonder they live in America's shadow, doing dirty deeds and regarded by the world's majority as a criminal adjunct to the western colonial system.

A complete show to honor the memory of the late-great Dickey Betts. Forrest Richard Betts (December 12, 1943 – April 18, 2024) was an American guitarist, singer, songwriter, composer and founding member of The Allman Brothers Band. Early in his career, he collaborated with Duane Allman, introducing melodic twin guitar harmony and counterpoint which "rewrote the rules for how two rock guitarists can work together, completely scrapping the traditional rhythm/lead roles to stand toe to toe". Following Allman's death in 1971, Betts assumed sole lead guitar duties during the peak of the group's commercial success in the mid-1970s. Betts was the writer and singer on the Allmans' hit single "Ramblin' Man". He also gained renown for composing instrumentals, with one appearing on most of the group's albums, including "In Memory of Elizabeth Reed" and "Jessica".

“We are calling on countries around the world to pressure Israel to allow us “free and safe passage” to deliver much-needed humanitarian aid to the Gaza Strip.” That’s a message from Medea Benjamin, the co-founder of CODEPINK. She is one of hundreds of participants from 32 countries that are now gathered in Istanbul, Turkey, to sail on three ships to Gaza, carrying 5,500 tons of humanitarian aid. TUC Radio is helping spread the word of this crucial effort by quoting George Galloway from the UK, and former U.S. Colonel Ann Wright in an interview with Eleanor Goldfield of Project Censored. Also a brief clip from a news report by CNN from a press conference by the Freedom Flotilla Coalition, held in the harbor of Istanbul, Turkey.

Please keep searching the news for the Freedom Flotilla and make an effort to pick up radio and video transmissions on the internet from the three boats as they depart Istanbul and sail for Gaza.
