“Barbed Wire and Flowers”: A daughter’s story of her perception and relationship with her father. He, a survivor of the holocaust, and she, his adult child describes the strength of his life incumbent on her youth, and their visit to one of the two concentration camps where he was interned by the Nazis in World War Two.
Roberta Werdinger, a storyteller, writer, publicist, editor, is our guest in this edition of Radio Curious. Raised as a non-secular Jew and ordained as a Buddhist Monk, plans to include “Barbed Wire and Flowers” in the memoir she is currently writing. I heard her public reading of “Barbed Wire and Flowers” here in Ukiah in June, 2016 I invited her to visit Radio Curious. She did on November 21, 2016. Our visit begins with her reading “Barbed Wire and Flowers,” and I invite you listen for the next 17 minutes. Our conversation follows.

This week on the Global Research News Hour we are exploring unusual events in January that were explained in the mainstream media but behind which more questions lie. In our first half hour, we talk to a veteran of the CIA and the State Department’s Office of Counter Terrorism about lingering questions he has about the attacks in New Orleans and in Las Vegas on New Year’s Day, and indications that the FBI and the Las Vegas police force were deliberately lying about certain aspects of each case, and about some similarities the two actors had with each other. Next in our second half hour, we are joined by botanist and forest agronomist Robert Brame who noted some of the odd properties of the fires currently burning toward Los Angeles. Finally, Elana Freeland, the writer, and specialist on the Deep State and GEO ENGINEERING presents an alternative explanation of the fires and reveals plans for this technology going way beyond merely arson.

Today’s guest, Jevin Hodge serves as the President a NAACP branch representing nearly 2 million people. He is currently leading one of the nation’s most historic and influential civil rights organizations in advancing equity, opportunity, and community empowerment. He previously served as a state Representative and a former congressional candidate.
In the first half of the show, we examine the role of civil rights organizations now that there is a new administration. We also discuss community organization and what it encompasses. Furthermore, we have a brief conversation on the best way to begin a career in local politics.
In the second half of the show, we discuss Al Sharpton’s request for all Americans to boycott companies that have abandoned their diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts. We discuss how these efforts initially came to be, and our capacity to effect change as individuals with spending power.

This book gives an extraordinary and timely update to the fraudulent claim that Iraq possessed Weapons of Mass Destruction. It’s a detailed insider account of how a Pentagon cabal strategized to manipulate intelligence, pressure the United Nations, forced a Congressional authorization for the use of force, and scared the American people after 9/11 into supporting an attack on Iraq.
Dennis Fritz is a Pentagon insider and senior enlisted leader with nearly three decades standing. He worked directly for - and advised - some of the most senior General Officers in the Department of Defense. They included General Richard B. Myers, who served as Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff during the height of the Iraq War.
After military retirement, Fritz found himself inside Donald Rumsfeld’s Pentagon working for Douglas Feith, the Under Secretary of Defense for Policy and key architect of the case in favor of war. Fritz’ access to thousands of personal handwritten notes, documents, and Pentagon’s internal conversations, allowed him to tell the hidden story of why America invaded Iraq.
Reviewers of the book, Deadly Betrayal, say that Dennis Fritz discovered three reasons for the misguided Iraq War: To restore American “credibility” in the Middle East. To go to war on Israel’s behalf. And to deliver “democracy” at gunpoint. The results were a massive failure on all counts. The reviewers state that the lessons of the Iraq War remain crucial for our own time, as various lobbies continue to try to manipulate the US into still more unnecessary and reckless wars - such as an attack on Iran.
In spite of the historic and contemporary significance of the book it has remained shrouded in silence. On Oct 30, 2024 Judge Andrew Napolitano gave Dennis Fritz one of the first interviews on his YouTube channel: Judging Freedom. Judge Napolitano served as a New Jersey Superior Court Judge and as legal analyst for Fox News. After his career in TV, Napolitano started his own Youtube show - Judging Freedom.
