[Peace-discuss] Recommended videos for AWARE on the Air, News from Neptune, and Labor's World View TV

[J.B. Nicholson]

Here are the videos I recommended to run during AWARE on the Air, News from Neptune, 
and Labor's World View TV.

As a reminder: If anyone else has anything to run, please feel free to get your 
pointers to Jason Liggett (jcliggett at urbanaillinois.us). I routinely ask him to 
prioritize AWARE members pointers over mine for AWARE on the Air, Carl Estabrook & 
David Green's pointers over mine for News from Neptune, and David Johnson's pointers 
over mine for Labor's World View TV.





Jimmy Dore's interview of Hedges (no swearing that I've found) is highly 
recommendable as are Hedges' "On Contact" interviews. With Jimmy Dore, Hedges covers 
labor issues and economic issues ("Dying for an iPhone" is a highly recommendable 
book, by the way, and Hedges is one of very few people to interview its authors on TV 
-- yeah, I know that's hardly surprising but this was one of the previously 
recommended "On Contact" interviews). Dore, with interviews like this, is clearly 
among the heavy-hitters of progressive labor + anti-war + political activism news and 
analysis.

Jack Murphy's segment shows us with clear evidence, not just descriptions, what drone 
war looks like from the drone soldier's viewscreen -- people being assassinated by 
remote control. It's shocking but very real. Again, I point you to the difference 
between what "anti-war" Tulsi Gabbard told The Intercept about drone warfare (when 
she endorsed it) to what drone operators have told us (in the documentary "National 
Bird", a previous recommended video) and here. Drone war is not a "surgical strike". 
Drone war overwhelmingly kills innocent civilians and it's very easy for ordinary 
people to enter the area where the drone-fired missile explodes thus killing them.
