Gorilla Radio for Monday, January 23, 2006

It would be funny, if it weren’t so tragic. Around the globe, we see evidence of an ignorance, an ideological, systemic stupidity currently threatening the very survival of the planet. But, despite the obvious red alert messages, we largely continue along the road to our collective ruination. For those discouraged by news from Central Asia, I’m sad to add word of troubling developments emanating from another elsewhere.

As Dave Lindorff asks, “What are you supposed to do when the world's most over-armed, belligerent and dangerous nation, which outspends all the rest of the world combined on arms, and which is the major arms supplier to the rest of the world, tells a little country like Venezuela that it is guilty of spending "too much" on its military?”

Author and journalist, Dave Lindorff in the first half on shoring up the empire’s southern flank.

And; something of an as yet undetermined nature in the second half… Mehdi Najari and a post mortem of the 2005-6 federal election campaign.

And, Janine Bandcroft will be here at the bottom of the hour to bring us up to speed with all that’s good to do in and around Victoria in the coming week; but first, Dave Lindorff and a laughable oblivion.
