Latin Waves Host Sylvia Richardson speaks to Jorge Martin secretariat of Hands off Venezuela, about popular mobilizations in Latin American that sparked in 2019 in rejection of Capitalism. The massive strikes against right wing governments in Puerto Rico, Haiti, Ecuador, Colombia and Chile marking a wave of resistance rising among the youth. The interview also explores lessons learned as the attempted coup against Venezuela failed, and coup against Bolivia. The limitations of juridical venues to fight back against imperialism and the power of internationalized movements of solidarity.

Our featured speaker today is Joseph Massad, one of our clearest and most articulate voices. Massad discusses "Trump's Deal of the Century: the Final Phase of the Oslo Accords." Here's an informal summary of the "deal": (1) the PLO, or now, PA is designated as the sole representative of all Palestinians, of course snuffing out Hamas and all dissenters; then (2) in "exchange" for a devastating package of even more crippling one-sided concessions by the PA, all remaining Palestinian hopes for a viable future (not to mention equal rights) are simply extinguished forever, thus achieving "peace"! Before Massad's talk, we report on the Israel Lobby's continued efforts to punish or prohibit BDS or Palestine support or even an honest discussion of Israel's deadly oppression of Palestinians, particularly at universities. They continue to succeed in the enactment, temporarily, of blatantly unconstitutional laws with this goal.

Tamara Lorincz of Canadian Voice of Women for Peace (VOW Peace) discusses with Phil the destabilizing effect of NATO (North Atlantic Treaty Organization) in Central and Western Asia. NATO (under a different name) has been the occupying force in Afghanistan for 19 years, and threatening neighbouring Iran. For some time, NATO has also been the backbone of the US Coalition occupying Iraq and Syria, despite the fact that, for years, the Iraqi people have been demonstrating for all foreign forces to leave. The Trudeau government of Canada stationed hundreds of troops in a training role around Baghdad, but there are unknown numbers of Canadian 'JTF2' Special Forces in the Kurdish north. These commandos are not overseen by the Canadian Parliament, and report to no one outside the military brass. NATO has been pressuring Canada to do more in Iraq. But, Lorincz says, Canadians should resist this pressure and demand our government respect the wishes of the Iraqi Parliament and bring all our troops home. Our troops aren't helping the situation, and could be caught up in a war between the US and Iran. Last year, the Trudeau government celebrated the 70th anniversary of NATO with its "We Are NATO" campaign. Lorincz recounts that she started picketing the NATO Association Office in Toronto at that point, which is directly funded by US arms makers Lockheed Martin and General Dynamics. Lorincz says Canadians have spoken. They don't want F-35 fighter jets and new warships. Instead, they want social programs, social housing, climate action, and peace. Lorincz and many others will be out demonstrating on January 25th. Check your local anti-war organization for details on protests near you.
