Phil reflects on the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda. Despite the work of some dedicated lawyers that challenged gaps in the tribunal's procedure, the court tried to gloss over the issue of what started the war. The concept of "crime of aggression," the triggering event of a plane crash, killing two Presidents, was not welcome at the ICTR. And the International Criminal Court is as blind and biased as can be expected. The sovereign jurisdiction of countries is the antidote for this creation. Otherwise, we end up with the EU and others giving prizes to people who call for the bombing of their own country, like Machado. The UN Charter is the best hope for humanity.

Phil interviews international lawyer David Jacobs about how NATO gets away with violating international law. Jacobs recounts how Prof. Michael Mandel, Harry Glasbeek, and others took NATO to task over war crimes and legal violations over the dissolution of Yugoslavia.

The 70s were weird, as we remind you about a celebrity of the era who was famous for bending spoons with his mind and also decided to cut an album! Some classic songs that are instrumentals and a chart topping cheezy that went as high as # 24 in 1975 according to casey from that countdown program. He should know. He drops by to say so!
