Interview 438 – Justin Burke
Justin Burke, Managing Editor of the Eppy Award-winning Central Asia news website Eurasianet.org, joins us to discuss the importance of Manas Air Base in Kyrgyzstan to NATO’s supply chain for Afghanistan, its role in the Northern Distribution Network, and why it has been such a point of contention with the Kyrgyz people. We also discuss how the situation is likely to play out now that the latest president has affirmed his willingness to shut down the base.
Interview 436 – Rick Rozoff
Rick Rozoff of Stop NATO International joins us to discuss the scandal of the Manas Air Base, a facility in Kyrgyzstan that has been strategically important for the US in staging and transportation to supply its decade-long occupation of Afghanistan. We discuss the history of US-Kyrgyz relations, years-long rumblings from the Kyrgyz political establishment to kick the US out of Manas, its possible use as a drug-smuggling facility, and more. We also talk about the moves toward WWIII occurring across the South Asian and Greater Middle East region and what, if anything, can be done to stop it.
Interview 432 – Cynthia McKinney
Today we talk to former US Congresswoman and presidential candidate Cynthia McKinney about AFRICOM, the US military’s African Command, and its ostensible mandate to foster “security cooperation” between the US and Africa. We discuss what AFRICOM is really designed to do and look at the example of the US’ recent military intervention in Libya against Gaddafi, a vocal dissenter against AFRICOM’s designs on the continent.
