 Sharon Johnston Cohosts today, as Robert Johnstreet is out of town. Fred Nagel dropped in the studio for a little while as well.
Professor Francis Boyle, A scholar in the areas of international law and human rights, joins us to discuss the framework and mindset of the Neocons which have infiltrated the White House, Pentagon, and other high level offices in the Bush Administration. Professor Boyle studied International Relations at the University of Chicago where the Neoconservative movement was founded by Leo Strauss. Boyle was trained as a neocon under Strauss' colleague Joseph Cropsey. Professor Boyle received a J.D. degree magna cum laude and A.M. and Ph.D. degrees in political science from Harvard University and studied under the same program as Kissinger and Brzezinski.
 A Short List of Interviews with and Articles by Professor Boyle >> Fukuyama's Article from the NYT which Boyle references >> Shadia Drury's Homepage at University of Regina (contains many links to articles, book reviews, and audio of interviews) >>  We'll begin the program with a brief interview with Ali Abunimah with Electronic Intifada regarding his latest piece entitled A Setback for the Bush doctrine in Gaza, regarding recent events between Hamas and Fatah and the Israeli-American backed Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas.
Yonatan Shapira will join us to discuss his recent talk at the United Nations General Assembly Committee on the Inalienable Rights of the Palestinian People (notes from the talk incluiding comments from Yonatan are available here). We spoke with Dr. Gerry Lower to discuss some of his latest writings including Red and Blue Health Care in the U.S., and the general trajectory towards global citizenship and the failure of the Bush Worldview. FreeRangeThought spoke with Dr Lower last year about The US as a human rights based democracy, humanism and natural philosophy.
