This week, on the Global Research News Hour, we commemorate the 25th anniversary of NATO’s first act of offence, against another country, the war on Yugoslavia with interviews with two informed guests. The great writer and journalist Diana Johnstone shows up first to talk about the true reasons for the war and about the similarities between that war and the current war in Ukraine. Then in our second half hour, we have a lengthy discussion with investigative journalist Kit Klarenberg about the intelligence aspects of the war that helped to drive the Yugoslavia venture and other US-based initiatives continuing to advance US hegemony throughout the post cold war globe.

According to Reuters, electric vehicle sales leapt 50% in the US in 2023, and are expected to grow by another 30% in 2024. But driving around your city or town, you’ll probably still see a lot more gas stations than electric charging stations. This week on Sea Change Radio, we learn the ins and outs of electric vehicle infrastructure from Nicole Voudren, an engineer, educator and consultant in the EV charging space. We look at how private industry, public utilities, and governmental agencies are all converging in this new vital area of the economy to help Americans transition away from internal combustion engine vehicles and get electrified. Voudren talks about the Tesla supercharging network, free, ad-based charging initiatives like Volta, and other ways that technologies are improving to help allay the range anxiety that many EV owners experience.
Who was Julius Caesar, a dictator or a populist? And who really was Brutus, who murdered him on the Ides of March? A young hero or a participant in a deep seated conspiracy? This intriguing lecture by the noted author, speaker, activist and scholar Michael Parenti provides surprising new insights and parallels to today that are both shocking and amusing.
This rebroadcast is part of the very popular and ever expanding series on what Parenti called Real History, a different and intriguing reading of a surprisingly large number all too familiar stories.
Parenti spoke about his Pulitzer Price nominated book: The Assassination of Julius Caesar, a people's history of ancient Rome. He was recorded by Brian Barry in the summer of 2003 in San Francisco at Modern Times Books.
DATE: Summer of 2003
