4/24/20 Mitchell Plitnick on Israel’s New Unity Government
Mitchell Plitnick talks to Scott about the dizzying state of the Israeli elections. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has finally formed a government after three rounds of elections that looked to be tilting toward his main rival, Benny Gantz. Plitnick theorizes that Gantz simply is not as savvy a career politician as Netanyahu is, and in part he just got tired of the endless fight. He may even have used the coronavirus pandemic as an excuse to call off his campaign. Now his coalition has supposedly entered a power sharing agreement with Netanyahu, in which the latter will serve as prime...
4/24/20 Grant Smith on the IRS’s Israeli Settlement Corruption
Scott talks to Grant Smith about his organization’s Freedom of Information lawsuit against the IRS, an attempt to get the agency to reveal its policies on tax-exempt organizations overseas. Of particular interest is the shocking fact that billions of dollars of tax-deductible money has been donated by American taxpayers in recent years to fund organizations that build settlements on Palestinian land.

4/27/20 Jim Bovard on the Murder of Duncan Lemp
Jim Bovard is back with an update in the Duncan Lemp case.

The police have changed their official story three times already, apparently trying to cover up what is almost certainly a wrongful killing. They claim that they received an anonymous tip regarding firearms offenses, which in their eyes evidently justifies a deadly nighttime SWAT raid. Bovard and Scott fear that because of the special legal...
Pompeo’s Latest Iran Scheme
Well, it's an article by David Sanger in the New York Times, so who knows if a single word of it is true. But what it says is that the U.S. plans on reentering the Iran nuclear deal of 2015, just to try to force a "snap-back" of the UN sanctions regime and ban on conventional weapons sales to Iran, get this, in the name of Iran deliberately exceeding some of the limitations on their enrichment program in response to the U.S. breaking the deal first -- something they're actually allowed to do in the deal. Then again, Pompeo is who he is, so it's no surprise....
