This week on the Global Research News Hour, we take another look at illegal actions in the Middle East and try to assess ways to resolve the situation justly and peacefully in a seemingly complex and challenging world. In our first half hour we speak with Michael Lynk, a Canadian professor of Law and Former Special Rapporteur on Human rights in the Occupied Palestine territories about some of the pressing difficulties in arriving at a satisfactory legal solution. And in our second half hour we hear from Michel Chossudovsky of the centre for research on globalization and Global Research editor about how the focus of much of the peace movement is too much on Israel and not enough on the architects of Israel’s actions located in Washington DC.

Non-lethal chemical warfare may be an oxymoron to some, but it was actually the goal of a U.S. Army research program in the 1960s and 70s at Edgewood Arsenal, an army arsenal in Maryland. The research goal was to find incapacitating non-lethal chemical weapons that would cause the enemy to lie down, smile and laugh. The research team was lead by a then colonel in the U.S. Army, psychiatrist Dr. James S. Ketchum. The team attempted to determine if LSD, cannabis, or belladonna could achieve the goal. Dr. Ketchum, the author of “Chemical Warfare: Secrets Almost Forgotten,” visited the studios of Radio Curious on August 1, 2008. We began our interview when I asked what originally drew him to participate in the project at Edgewood Arsenal. The books he recommends are “Pihkal: A Chemical Love Story” and “Tihkal: The Continuation,” by Alexander and Ann Shulgin.

DO NOT MISS THIS WEEK’S SHOW! Sometimes I blow my own mind and this one is a frigging masterpiece! This is a rerun of a pre-election show we aired in 2016 and I have yet to hear anyone else better encapsulate the absurdist reality into which our election cycle has descended. And now, eight years later, the style is new but the play is pretty much exactly the same. This week the Thunderbolt waxes nostalgic and takes a look at some of the major political candidates from back in the day — and manages to do so without vomiting! Listen with due care…

This is an archival TUC Radio program from 2016. You will hear Captain Paul Watson describe his extraordinary journey saving whales and life in the oceans. Paul Watson was co-founder of Greenpeace and CEO of the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society. He was commander on seven different Sea Shepherd ships since 1978 and now, at age 73, leads vessels under the flag of the Captain Paul Watson Foundation. Thanks to the French Thinkerview collective for the interview. This archival program has contemporary significance: On October 23, 2024, the day this program is being placed back into distribution, Paul Watson remains in prison in the capital city of Greenland, Nuuk, threatened with extradition to Japan. They are asking for a sentence of 15 years for Paul Watson’s interference, using Sea Shepherd boats, in their slaughter of whales by Japanese vessels in international waters in the Antarctic. A practice the International Court of Justice had already ruled illegal in 2014. This year, 2024, Japan has just completed building the largest whale processing factory ship ever, the Kangei Maru. For their so-called ‘maiden hunt’ they have taken the Kangei Maru to the North West Passage past Greenland. A boat under the flag of the Captain Paul Watson Foundation, the John Paul DeJoria had begun chase when they docked in the port of Nuuk to refuel. However on the morning of Sunday, July 21st, 2024, Danish police and SWAT teams boarded the John Paul DeJoria and arrested Captain Paul Watson under a Japanese warrant. An international effort is under way to prevent his extradition to Japan, and request asylum for him in France. DATE: 2016 and 2024 CREDIT: Thinkerview and Captain Paul Watson

There is a large swath of politically aware Americans out there who would like to follow the exhortations of Michelle Obama and “do something,” but the prospect of knocking on people’s doors can be a little daunting. This week’s guest on Sea Change Radio, Elizabeth Chur, has fully embraced the art of political canvassing, however, and learned to have fun with it. In her new book, The Joy of Talking Politics With Strangers, Chur shares her experiences walking the pavement for policies and candidates she feels passionate about, talks about how to convert non-voters into voters and gives us plenty of valuable tips for canvassing success.
