[Now UPDATED with tonight’s audio archives below!]
It’s our penultimate (second to last!) day in our latest week-long sting filling to guest host the nationally syndicated Mike Malloy Show, as Mike and Kathy enjoy a much-deserved vacation. So we’re making noise again tonight over your public airwaves, on the Internet (streaming links below) and on SiriusXM ch. 127!
Once again, we’ll be BradCasting, LIVE from 9pm-Mid ET (6p-9p PT), coast-to-coast and around the globe from L.A.’s KTLK am1150 in beautiful downtown Burbank. Join us by tuning in, chatting in, Tweeting in and calling in! Our LIVE chat room will be up and rolling right here at The BRAD BLOG, as usual, while we are on the air. Please stop by and join the fun while you’re listening! (The Chat Room will open at the bottom of this item a few minutes before airtime, see down below, just above “Comments” section.)
Scheduled tonight:
- SUE WILSON, media activist, director of Public Interest Pictures’ Broadcast Blues, and a 22-year, award-winning veteran of broadcast journalism, and founder of the Media Action Center on how the “public airwaves” were used to “win” the WI recall election for Scott Walker, and what we the people can do about it.
- JOHN WELLINGTON ENNIS, Director of the upcoming documentary Pay2Play, Democracy’s High Stakes and before that, 2008’s Free For All: One Dude’s Quest to Save Democracy on the increasingly insane effect of big, dark money on our electoral system in the post-Citizens United world.
- PLUS! Drumbeating Iran, Fossil fuel companies global warming woes, and much more, as usual, along with your phone calls over your public airwaves at 877-520-1150 and your tweets to @TheBradBlog!…

H. Res. 568, AIPAC supported resolution sponsored by Ileana Ros-Lehtinen and 331 other members, passed May 17,2012 401- 11 with 10 not voting 9 of 10 voting present.
Related bill S. Res. 380 in Senate has been stuck in Senate Foreign Relations committee since Feb 16, 2012 introduction. 77 cosponsors. Few working days left before one third of Senators campaign and two thirds help fundraise. Emergency Committee for Israel ad Brad F. played was part of a push to get S Res 380 passed before final recess for election campaigns.
AIPAC, by way of H Res 568 and S Res 380, is trying to change the goal of Iran policy to preventing Iran from having nuclear bomb capability, not only a nuclear bomb itself, to contain. These resolutions ‘lower the bar’ to bombing nuclear program facilities because nuclear electricity or medical isotope production can be the first step to weapons production. Main difference is whether the uranium is 20% enriched or 90% enriched. Peaceful nuclear technology uses are permitted by Non Proliferation Treaty Iran signed. Israel who neither confirms nor denies (strategic ambiguity) having nuclear weapons but Mordecai Vanunu basically confirmed didn’t sign the NPT treaty for political reasons complicating plausibility of strategic ambiguity policy.
