5/28/21 John Kiriakou on the Persecution of Daniel Hale

by Scott Horton | May 30, 2021 | The Scott Horton Show

John Kiriakou discusses the case of hero whistleblower Daniel Hale, who helped expose the White House's secret drone assassination program during the Obama administration. Hale has pled guilty to one charge under the espionage act, in an effort to win the mercy of the court, but he still faces four other charges, which at the moment the Justice Department is refusing to back down from. Hale is now facing at least some time in prison, but could be given a much longer sentence, depending on how things go in the coming months. Scott and Kiriakou remind us that, of course, Hale shouldn't be...

5/28/21 Tom Woods on the Revitalization of the Libertarian Movement

by Scott Horton | May 30, 2021 | The Scott Horton Show

Scott talks to the great Tom Woods about the latest happenings in Libertarian Party politics. Scott, Tom and many other committed libertarian activists have decided to join the LP recently in an effort to re-energize the movement and spread the principles of liberty. Much of this new energy is thanks to Michael Heiss of the Mises Caucus, who's been spent the last few years organizing events with the likes of Tom and Scott, and has big things planned for the future. Discussed on the show: "The American Lenin" (lneilsmith.org) "Scott's Talk to the Colorado Libertarian Party Convention, May 22,...

5/20/21 Jeremy Hammond on the Deliberate Perpetuation of Strife Between Israel and Palestine

by Scott Horton | May 24, 2021 | The Scott Horton Show

Scott interviews Jeremy Hammond about the real history of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, focusing on the fact that, counter to the mainstream narrative, Israel has encouraged the rise of Hamas all along as a useful foil. Israel, Hammond explains, has never wanted a two-state solution, and when the PLO renounced terrorism and openly began supporting the idea of a two-state solution in the late 1980s, Hamas provided a convenient excuse for Israel to claim it couldn't negotiate with the Palestinians at all. Hammond also refutes the claim that the Palestinians have repeatedly refused to...

5/20/21 Kalmen Barkin on Israel’s Fraught Past and Uncertain Political Future

by Scott Horton | May 21, 2021 | The Scott Horton Show

Kalmen Barkin is back for an update on Israeli politics. In the last two weeks, Knesset opposition leader Yair Lapid got the opportunity to form a coalition government, and possibly oust Prime Minister Netanyahu for the first time since 2009. But just afterward, as Barkin explains, violence erupted at the al-Aqsa mosque, in response to Palestinian protests about settlements in the Sheikh Jarrah neighborhood. These events have thrown Israeli politics into turmoil, and it's not at all clear what will happen going forward. If Netanyahu can hold onto power, it wouldn't be the first time he's...

5/20/21 Eric Brakey and Reed Cooley on State Nullification and the Defend the Guard Movement

by Scott Horton | May 21, 2021 | The Scott Horton Show

Eric Brakey, former state senator from Maine and current spokesman for Young Americans for Liberty, talks about the efforts to get Defend the Guard bills into state legislatures. The Defend the Guard movement is an attempt to force congress to uphold its role in declaring war by making sure states retain control of their own national guard troops until an official declaration of war, as the constitution outlines. Of course, congress hasn't declared a war since World War II, and is unlikely to do so with any of the current terror wars, meaning that in practice the national guard troops simply...
